29th Volume The 1959 $$$$$$$$$ STRONG VINCENT HIGH SCHOOL Erie, Pa. Introduction 2 Administration 8 Activities 16 Classes 28 Organizations 76 Athletics 108 Art is gone. The student body and faculty of Strong Vincent High School have lost a near and dear friend, Art Weible. Art, as he was affectionately known to the multitude of students, who passed through Vincent during his tenure, compiled an incomparable record of victories. His twelve straight city swimming championships are an outstanding achievement. He will be as well remembered as a counsellor, who had human insight toward the problems of the students he advised. His quiet, reassuring manner seemed to instill a spirit of confidence in his associates, students and swimmers. We, the swimmers recall with nostalgia, his inimitable way of coaching, his words of encouragement, and his unfailing guidance. Much more than dust will gather in his room. I hear a thousand boys shout through its gloom. This illustrates just one of Art's many victorious meets. Here the 1956 swim- ming team celebrate by taking Coach Weibel for a ride. Under Art s in- spiring leadership our swimming team compiled 99 consecutive victories. His winning personality will not be forgotten easily and his guidance to all his swimmers will be remembered always. My stay in the United States has been an experience which I shall never forget because it has been a part of my very life, and the months I have spent here will always be a pleasant memory. I have had first hand opportunity of knowing America, free- ing myself from the prejudices which generally we Europeans have about this country. Beyond that pictured America which is presented by movies and books, there is a more human, cordial, and friendly America. I discovered this with pleasure, especially through the students in school, who have been really sincere friends, the patient teachers who helped me during these school months, and to Mr. Gillespie, whom I have come to know and appreciate. All these wonderful ex- periences have enriched my life while here and will surely en- rich my future work in my country. John Bocchio, Strong Vincent's foreign exchange student from Turin, in northern Italy, is a member of our senior class. This likeable seventeen year old actively participates in many of the school's functions. From John we have gained a broader understanding of people from other countries. With his pleasant and amicably personality he has built a peaceable bridge between Italy and the United States. Wolly Knox welcomes to Strong Vincent John Bocchio, his new house guest and Vincent's foreign exchange student. Johnny, a loyal supporter of all school sports, cheers along with his classmates giving support to our bosket- boll team. 5 In 1946, he was promoted to the position of assistant principal at Strong Vincent. Through the years that followed, he and Mr. Hamilton Gillespie, our principal, worked as a team in complete accord and with untiring effort to maintain the high scholastic standards of our school. Now the great team has been sepa- rated, but each, we know, will go on by him- self to carry out the high principles and ideals for which he stands. Congratulations, Mr. Gustavson, on your ap- pointment as principal of Roosevelt Junior High School! In the fall of 1930, when the doors of Strong Vincent opened to receive its first class of students, Mr. Gustavson started his teaching career at Strong Vincent. Down through the years, he taught English, History, P.O.D., and Economics. Because of his diversified interests in the field of sports as well as that of music, he soon became coach of the baseball and the J.V. football teams, as well as advisor to the Choir. 6 One of Mr. DeNardo’s multi- tude of activities is serving as advisor to the Dramatics Club. Here, he is trying out Amelia Grossi, Marge Fink, Kay Hal- beib, and Bill Grieshober for parts in Elmer and the So- prano. To be a counselor, one must posses those certain qualities and characteristics that induce students to seek his advice and to lay before him their many problems. He must have a deep understanding of human nature to cope successfully with the many and varied types of perplexities confronting the youth of today. Add to this a dash of humor—so necessary at times, and there you will Find a real friend. In addition to his personal qualities, recognition must be given to our Man of the Year for his untiring service to Strong Vincent. Having become the Boys' Guidance Counse- lor, he was compelled to give up many of his former activities. However, he is still the advisor for the Dramatics Club and is an ardent supporter of all activities at Strong Vincent, whether athletic or social. In appreciation of his constant kindness and encouragement and because he exemplifies the students' ideal of a counselor and a friend in so many ways, we hereby dedicate this 1959 SPOKESMAN to MR. DONALD DeNARDO. 7 w A Our Principal Always there when needed This is a state- ment that typifies our highly respected princi- pal, Mr. Hamilton C. Gillespie. Mr. Gillespie s striking personality makes him not only a great leader but also a great friend. As co- ordinator of all functions and activities of the school he has many problems laid upon his shoulders. But we can always be sure that our Mr. Gillespie will have the right solution. To the Seniors Change is ever with us. Change is a normal condition in the affairs of mankind. Nothing remains the same for any appreciable period of time. There are moments in history when changes come about at an accelerated rate. The year 1959 is such a time. These periods of great change are also times of great opportunity. These magnificent opportunities are available only to the man who is alert and who has learned to think. Continue to study. Continue to learn. Use your developing ability to think for your advancement, your family's welfare, your nation's security, and for the peace and progress of the world. Great changes are about to occur. Be ready for inevitably accelerated change. Our Assistants and Counselors Mr. Barber, our newest administra- tive aide, has gained high recogni- tion in our school for his work in planning assemblies, for his patience in listening to the many stories of those who are tardy or absent, and for his friendliness toward all stu- dents. Checking attendance, maintaining the social calendar, supervising the work of the classes and their officers, and taking charge of Junior High assemblies is all in a day s work for our well-liked Assistant Principal, Miss Kuhn. Mr. DeNardo has a full schedule to uphold with his work as boys' coun- selor, and as supervisor of the Dra- matics Club, but even though he has little spare time, he is always ready to raise someone’s spirit with a friendly smile. Guidance in personal problems, or in selection of colleges and other ca- reer information, along with supervi- sion of the Y-Teens and College Club are services offered to Strong Vincent students by our counselor. Miss Mer- cer. Our Faculty ELEANOR S. ALBRACHT JEANNE ALSHEIMER English Business According to Webster's Dictionary to teach means to impart knowledge to by lessons, give instruction to and guide by precept or example. The faculty of Strong Vincent High School has given life to this definition. They are an experi- enced faculty, experienced in helping youth to face and to solve its many problems. They are a dedicated faculty, dedi- cated to promoting our country's welfare by training its youth. Their aim is to guide us in growing mentally, physi- cally, socially, and spiritually. Through their guidance and un- derstanding we enter life prepared to stand the test of time. LEO A.

Fink a Strong Vincent special. J. Tozer, D. Brignol. B. Stark, B. White, S. Bartow prove to the stu- dent body that even girls know something about football. With a tremendous display of enthusiasm prompted by our cheerleaders, twirlers, band, and student body, our athletes faced their opponents with vim, vigor, and vitality knowing win, lose, or draw we were behind them all the way. Each rally was cleverly planned with humorous skits or serious talks given by students and members of the faculty. But as we stood at the end of each pep-rally singing the school song, we all knew the school spirit we felt was the most important asset we had, and as the cheers echoed through the halls we were reminded that only good sports are victorious. Here's reol evidence of spirit and support with All for Vincent stand up and holler. Good morning boys and girls is the familiar saying we associate with Mr. Humphrey. Open House Every year. Strong Vincent opens its doors to the test of patron opinion. On thi$ night, parents are given the opportunity to meet and talk with the teachers and briefly discuss any problems that may confront their children. This, too, is the night when our school is put on display for our parents and the general public to appraise. Our Parent-Teacher Association annually sponsors this evening at school in cooperation with millions of schools throughout the country in celebrating American Education Week. Mr. Le Blanc is discussing with o parent the progress and problems of o student. Miss Wilson explains to some parents the value of reoding and the port the library portrays in the stu- dent's everyday life. These parents toke time out to smile for the photographer as they wait their turn in line to see a teacher. As the parents enter the school they are greeted by a program and a smile. Nancy Roland, a hostess, demon- strates what we mean by friendly hospitality. 19 Variety Show Relieved and happy are two words thot might describe the feelings of Diana Gombefese and Sam Hester. These two were the capable emcees of the fall Variety Show. Under the auspices of the Student Council is the Variety Show produced twice yearly—Spring and Fall. This show creates a great deal of interest among the student body as those students with a flair for entertaining have an opportunity to display their talents and subsequently gain experience. The revenue from these performances forms a nucleus for the other fund- raising projects promoted by our council, as well as for the many services they render the school.

By her expression, she appears to be plotting some mischievous deed. Sqwish-sqwash-splish — Vincent's own famous Chef is demonstrating how to mix one of his rare delicacies. Mother Fletcher s Instant Mud. Language Assembly At Strong Vincent four modern foreign languages are taught: French, German, Italian, and Spanish. Every year, these classes are given the opportunity to show the talents they have learned to the student body. This year's assembly was particularly outstanding. Each group presented a skit native to the country they represented. These pictures will bring back many pleasant memories.

Kay s test was then sent in to be reviewed for state competition. Judy Lemon and Ben Meyers were the happy recipients of the D.A.R. award, presented each year to the outstanding boy and girl in the ninth grade. The National Council of Teachers of English awarded their certificate of merit to E. Strong and F. Murray for superior quality of achievement in high school English. Erica and Frances are shown here with Mr. Rose, Miss Thomas, and Miss Booth, English supervisor. The American Legion award, based on scho- lastic record, leadership, and good citizen- ship is presented each year to two eighth graders. The recipients were Joan Erzer and John Franzen. 22 Students Abroad Louise Schmidt, Bill McAfee, Ed Kolbe, and Penny Rose were chosen as the four candi- dates for the American Field Service's pro- gram, Students Abroad, because of their out- standing personalities and their high scholas- tic averages. U. N. Delegates Looking Ahead Strong Vincent participated in the sixth Model United Nations Assembly at Gannon College on March 21st. Vincent, representing National- ist China, sent nine delegates to the Assembly. These delegates, chosen from the various so- cial studies classes at Vincent were: John Boc- chio, Roberta Irwin, Tom Hughes, Mary Hamm, John Bermon, Toni Spampani, Edward Zacks, Erica Strong, and Terry Hall. The faculty ad- visor of our delegation was Mr. Joseph Ger- vase. College Night at Strong Vincent enables the high school student to learn the qualifications of a higher institute of learning. Each year ap- proximately fifty colleges send representatives to Vincent to aid students in their choice of a good college. 23 Worthy Fame TRACK QUEEN—The presenta- tion of medals to the track stars in the City Meet was an honor bestowed upon our Track Queen, Carol Felege. SPOKESMAN QUEEN—The happy smile on Jackie De- Sarro’s face denotes the fact that she has been chosen as the 1959 Spokesman Queen. Spokesman Queen Candidates—The nominees for the Spokesman Queen contest were a great help in promoting the sales of the 1959 Spokesman. Through campaign slogans and signs, the candidates obtained additional subscriptions to the yearbook and also additional votes for themselves. This years nominees selected by the students were Susan Bartow, Bryn Stark, Ann Taylor, Marg Fink, Suzanne Brown, and Jackie DeSarro. Fund Raising Fun A good time was had by all who attended the Spaghetti Supper sponsored by the P.T.A. to raise funds for the Foreign Exchange Student Program. How did it taste Chet? Enchanted Evening ‘One Enchanted Evening was the theme given to the Y-Teen Tri held at the Y.W.C.A. And everyone who danced to the music of Neil Charles can say it was truly an “en- chanted evening. A Helping Hand This is a typical mid-winter scene at Strong Vincent. When the snow became too much of a challenge a helping hand was a great blessing. Here Mr. DeNardo is assisted by the strong arms of some of our Vincent students. 25 Trumpeter Insight to Geometry Dick Dunn brought honor to Strong Vincent by being the only Vincentite selected for State Band. Congratulations, Dick! The candy stands seen at all athletic events held at Vincent are greatly appreciated by the students. Kay Stevens and Tom Hersperger satisfy their hunger by buying candy from Lee Ann McGuire and Pam Ziegler. Finally, after weeks of hard work, the Latin classes handed in their projects to Mr. Le- Blanc. Sidney Wheeler and George Grignol proudly model their contributions to the class. Jim Cassela, George Grignol, Steve Nahez, Fred Root, and John Freed are putting to practical use the triangles, trape- zoids, rectangles, and parallelograms they learned in geome- try class. “Candy for Sale” Gladiators? Strike!!! These girls are the members of the winning bowling team. B. Brown, C. Neuberger, R. Reisinger, M. Laurila, and J. DiNecola have proved their skill at bowling. The girls bowling captains were C. Felege, R. Reisinger, C. Charncy, M. Zambo, K. Mo- gel, L. Marquardt, S. Stroup, W. Lyons, L. McGuire, C. Bucheit, P. Covatto, P. Bennetti, B. Hafey, L. Kopp, R.

Huffman, Secretary. Bowling is an important part of the intramural activities at Vincent. Those who participated in bowling found it a chal- lenge and a lot of fun. The Girls’ Bowling League, under the supervision of Miss Weinheimer, met every Wednesday. The girls practiced con- scientiously throughout the year to be in best form for the tournaments that were held at the end of the year. The Class of 1959 elected capable leaders in their choice of Ted Rapp, Treasurer; Jane Turns, Secretary; John Bugbee, President; Fred Garnon, Vice-President.

The stu- dents participating in this organization are selected by the school because of their ability to make decisions for them- selves and their ability to carry out the will of the people they represent. The Student Council, this past year, initiated several new policies throughout the school. One new policy was the ten minute lunch period to relieve congestion in the cafeteria. In order to follow through with its plans, the Council raised money by selling book covers, pom-poms, and folders, and by sponsoring several noon day dances and a dance after the Harborcreek basketball game. Some of this money was given to the sports department of Strong Vincent so that stu- dents and teachers might continue to enjoy the fine sports that they support. The activities of the Student Council were highlighted by two variety shows in which many Vincentites participated. This worthy organization deserves our praise and admiration for so ably guiding Strong Vincent this year. Many thanks go to the advisors of the Student Council who were Mrs. Albrochf, Mr. LeBlanc, Mr. Wilkinson, and Mrs. Massing. The officers of Student Council, Wally Knox, President; Gay Vieyra, Corresponding Secretary; Kay Kingston, Vice-President; Chuckie Dickey, Recording Secretary; and Terry Pfeffer, Treasurer; interrupt one of their many executive meetings to have their pictures taken. 79 Recognition of Merit Sue Bortow and Nick Scoff are taking an active part in the initiation of new members into N.H.S. with Ann Allen looking on.

Hughes, pledge to uphold the standards of the National Honor Society. “And now the members will go out into the audience and bring up to the stage the students who have been selected for membership in the Society. This is the highlight of the National Honor Society assembly for the many Vincentites who have been striving for membership in this honorable or- ganization. The deserving students who were chosen were presented to the President, Tom Hughes, and then were officially received into the society by repeating its pledge. This impressive assembly brings out the symbolism associated with the Strong Vincent chapter of the National Honor Society. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY—T. Hughes, J. Shinol, T. Hall, B. Stork, E.

Credit to Service One of the finest organizations of the school is the Junior Red Cross. Each year the mem- bers of this club fill a chest which is sent overseas to some needy family. In order to raise money for this project, the Junior Red Cross sponsored a noonday dance, an eve- ning dance called Plaid Fad, and an assem- bly program to start their enrollment drive. Under the capable guidance of Miss Van Atta, this organization accomplished its noble goals. These representatives of the Junior Red Cross are work- ing diligently to pack the chest to be sent overseas. The hard working members are Phyllis Ferrio, Kay Kingston, and Ray Sheline. ROW ONE: S.

With an eye toward the future, members of the College Club presented programs which helped them to learn more about different schools. Through panel discussions, through talks given by teachers and alumni, and through films, the boys and girls learned what to expect of college and what college would expect of them. They compared vari- ous schools to see which ones appealed to each individual. The knowledge gained during these meetings helped the members to decide upon the career of their choice.

Many things are dependent on being accepted as a member of the Concert Choir. A good voice is only one qualification. Character, personality, and a good scholastic record are also carefully considered before a person is given the honor of belonging to our esteemed Choir. Miss Simpson, director of the Choir, has taken these members and molded them into one of the most outstanding choral organizations in the state. Our choir, because of its fine quality has traveled far to sing at important concerts and conferences. This year the Choir was honored at many distinguished gatherings. It was the only choral organization in Pennsylvania to be chosen to sing at the Music Educators' National Conference in Buf- falo, standing side by side with such famous groups as the New York All State Chorus, the Buffalo Philharmonic Or- chestra, and the Eastman School of Music Orchestra. Locally, the Choir sang at our annual Christmas and Spring Concerts, at service organizations, at a concert to raise money for the Foreign Exchange Student Program, and on television to introduce the Art Weibel Memorial Fund. The students of Strong Vincent offer many thanks to the Concert Choir for so ably representing their school. 88 of Perfection Miss Simpson, the hord working direc- tor of the Concert Choir, is the key to the success and fine reputation of this famed organization. Sue lewis. Secretory; Dave Arkwright, President; Morty Coblenfz, Vice-President; ond Larry Calabrese, Treasurer, are discussing the plans for the Choir’s trip to Buffalo in January.

These girls, always striving to better their fine organization, added sev- eral new attractions to their repertoire. One new attraction that will long be remembered was the initiation of new members. All in all, under the much appreciated guidance of Miss Weinheimer, the Cheerleaders kept the school spirit up with their pep and en- thusiasm.

To carry out this purpose they cooperated with the Y.W.C.A. in such things as collecting clothes, food, and money for needy families. This year they also continued the Christmas project of making sock dolls which they gave to orphanages throughout the city. An added at- traction to the agenda was the trip to New York City which was offered to girls in the organi- zation. The large membership of the Y-Teens goes to show that it is one of the most worth- while and popular clubs of the school. SENIOR Y-TEENS—Officers.- C. Felege, J. Balko, M. Coblentz, P. Pinquen.

We owe a vote of thanks to the officers, members, and advisor for the play presented this year. We are sure the underclassmen will look forward to next year's performance.

Already they have had the experi- ence of playing before the students of Harding School and in many Junior High assemblies. The Junior Band helped to support its big brother, the Senior Band, in many of its activities such as assemblies and football games. It also had the privilege of entertaining the students and teachers of Emerson School. This year its en- thusiastic members were under the leadership of John Hauserman as President, James Karhu as Vice President, Tom Haller as Secretary Treasurer, and Charles Swartwood as Social Secretary.

Other hard working Vincent sluggers included Bill Senger, Butch Worner and Ron Polak. Bob Grossman was the outstanding senior power hitter, while Dave Kish will be remembered as this year's most able pitcher. Dave Hickok, a junior, led the league in batting.

This year s version of the Strong Vincent cindermen featured one star, Wally Knox. The thinclads lacked the depth that makes for a championship team, but with good spirit and effort the Colonels won their first dual meet since 1955 and went on to cop two more.

They are: Esker Smith, Tom McQuaid, Jan Shinol, Bob St. John, Abdel Mokhriby, Richard Read, Jim Roach, Lindsay Jeter, Gary Hendrickson and Joe Grande.

To Be Lucky For Colonel Fish IN MEMORIAM—The swimmers, saddened by the loss of Coach Weibel, were successfully guided through their thir- teenth consecutive perfect season by Mr. Olavi ‘‘Whitey'’ Sola. Mr. Sola took command in October and engineered the team to the City and District 10 titles. However, on return- ing to school on the Monday following the Regional meet, the students were shocked by the sudden death of Whitey. Coach Sola successfully maintained the high standards set forth by Art Weibel. The prospects for another successful season look good with such stand-outs as Pat Cahill, Jack McAllister, Dick Solvedt, Roger Ellenburger, Randy Bonney, John Schuler and Alex Pringle returning. Seniors Ed Schade, Dave Lynch, Ray Zimmerman, Mick Scott, Mike Sim- mons, and Bruce Raimey helped com- pile many points. Coach Sola and Captain Ed Schade are going over last minute instruc- tions before a meet.

The Red and Black compiled a record of 5 wins and 3 losses, an exact duplication of last year's results. In city series play they tied for second place with Academy. This praise-worthy finish was mainly due to the aquatic skills of Dave Schabacker (captain), Bruce Raimy, Nick Scott, John Schuler, and Pat Flanagan.

The fans were entertained to three thrilling performances. Going in to the second encounter with Prep, the Colonels were hampered by the loss of Wally Knox. However, Bill Senger came off the bench and proved to be the spark that inspired the team. The Big 4, consisting of Wally Knox, Esker Smith, Jack Lockwood and Dave Hichok, started off each encounter along with Bill Mertens, Charley Tache or Bill Senger. This combin- ation functioned smoothly on offense as well as defense as the Ironmen compiled a record of 7-1 to tie Prep for the City Crown. Mr. Gervase holds Coach Calabrese s coat fo give Ralph his congratulations on our sensational win over Prep os fans stream on to the court to give the boys a pat on the back.
