Saving, learning, serving, con- serving, and adding to their skills are their ways of fighting to- ward a triumphant peace. Students and teachers on the home front have again pledged their help in winning this global war and in securing a lasting peace. Believing that democracy is only as strong as the indi- viduals in it and that self-discipline and consideration for others is the basis of the government, the Tolleston faculty guides stu- dents in mastering subjects which will make them better citizens. The faculty and students have found many opportunities for present service. Teachers and students donate blood to the Red Cross blood bank, subscribe to the Community Chest drive, and issue ration books. Members of the office practice classwork on the local ration board. The journalism class mails Tolly-Times to the servicemen all over the world, and the Latin Club writes letters to the school alumni in the service. The cafeteria and auditorium have extended their activities to provide food and entertainment for children of war workers. Save your money and your money will save you is their slogan. Each Tuesday and Wednesday is stamp day and every day is bond day. The school received the Army and Navy E for having over ninety per cent participation in its stamp and bond drive. Besides saving money the AOA saves and collects paper and scrap. Mindful ot the sacrifices made on the fighting front, all are earnestly striving with hands, minds, and hearts to preserve and protect the democratic way of life. ..,.. ......iL.

LEE MORRIS T011y.Times L Latin Club R.O.T.C., Lieutenant KENNETH ICKETTS In Memo am -if 4 44 ,LY REMINISCING Yes, it seems only yesterday when we were freshmen starting off to school with great ambitions and big ideas. Remember how proud we were that first day to come home with algebra and biology books tucked under our arms. How smug we were when our mothers remarked how well we were doing in high school! Retelling myths in freshman English was a chore, but when we actually got down to work, some of our compositions turned out to be big hits with Mrs. Wendt. She even considered giving us A's on our papers. Well-not all of us were quite that fortunate. Before we knew it, the big event of our freshman year was at hand. The Freshman Frolic was the reason for the buzzing at the girls' lockers. Should we wear skirts and sweaters or really dress up? Then we were at the party-all of the girls in one corner and the boys in another! Of course we topped off the evening with sundaes at the Dari-Maid. Our sophomore year rolled around in no time at all and we were planning the Sophomore Hop. Members of the Latin Club were making arrangements for the trip to the Shades, in Indiana, not the Underworld! Some of us squeezed in right beside the seniors and participated in one of our best operettas, The Forest Prince. Do you remember the big romances that started to bloom? My, how sweet the girls looked with stardust in their eyes and their faces all aglow! Spring was in the air. Our junior year added nostalgic memories. We began to realize that life is real, life is earnest and we had a future to plan for. Still we had super times. Do you remember the R.O.T.C. and the Booster Club dances? We were trying to jitterbug like some of the contortionists we had seen in the movies-oh well, all of us could waltz. We really made use of that talent at the Military Ball and the lunior-Senior Prom. Our senior year arrived. War had changed many of our plans and curtailed some of our fun but we combined work with pleasure. During the save-paper drive we elected Patty Brownell queen of the paper dolls and had a Paper Doll Dance. We ate a little less candy and chewed a little less gum so we could buy war stamps every Wednesday. English compositions became letters to Tolleston boys in service. Naturally we had to have a Sadie Hawkins dance and a Military Ball and Prom. How thrilled we were to march with our escorts in the Grand March. Yes, some of the Marys and Bettys were deprived of the last dance because their loes and lohns were somewhere in a training camp or even in actual combat. Commencement days drew near. At out lunior-Senior Farewell we were presented with a plaque inscribed with the Marine Corps insignia and the words To the Class of 1944 from Brice Gonzalez. We missed him most then. Several of our senior boys missed the thrill of marching to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance across the stage to grasp-a little awkwardly-their diplomas. Max Slatton and lames Whittaker were already in the Navy, Harold Brown and Charles Price were serving in the Marine Corps, Chris Kaletta, Richard Lawrence, Tony Rose, and William Schlegel were away in the army. They received their diplomas in absentia while the rest of us selfconsciously and even tearfully greeted our friends and relatives waiting to congratulate us. Now that our high school days are over we realize how much we shall miss our classes and teachers, our parties, hay rides, football and basketball games, evenings spent dancing or sipping cokes at the Dari-all of us there together. Nothing can ever take the place of those memorable days, and we shall cherish them forever.

Four years ago members of the Tolleston community asked for an R.O.T.C. unit at the Tolleston School. The request was granted by the United States government and ninety-eight students enrolled to form two companies with six officers. Development of leaders who will faithfully accept and efficiently discharge the duties and responsibilities of American citizens is the main objective of the R.O.T.C. military train- ing. Moreover, the cadets are encouraged to practice the desirable habits of neatness, re- sponsibility, self-discipline, and intelligent planning. In 1942, since the country was at war, R.O.T.C. became a compulsory subject for all boys from their sophomore year on. The 1943-'44 unit has three companies with one hundred seventy-four cadets and sixteen commissioned officers. Sergeant H. O. McGee was chosen by Lieutenant Colonel Chauncy H. Hayden, P. M. S. and T. of all Gary high schools, as instructor ot the 1943-'44 unit at Tolleston School.

The H. A. G. Club is an honorary organization composed ot seniors who are taking their fourth year of auditorium training. The highlight oi the year is the attendance of a stage show in Chicago-The Projector Club, sponsored by Miss Jones, shows movies to the social science classes, to safety classes, and to the audi- torium group.

Today, innumerable opportunities are presented through which the student may develop his talents and skills. ,,,, , ,V The high school Qmyiqulmim has been expanded to include not only courses in the traditional sub jects, but also in home-making, vocational and commercial subjects, music, art, and dramatics Through these and through participation in extra-curricular activities students develop well- rounded personalities. , SODALITAS LATINA The officers of Sodalitas Latina are lames Murray, Vice President, Margaret Conway, Program Chairman, Titina Pupillo, Secretary-Treasurer, and Robert Nichols, President Mrs. Mildred Gilpin is the-Q sponsor. X KAD I Latin has gone to war. Boys who once learned Latin grammar and conjugated Latin verbs in a sheltered classroom are reading Latin in- scriptions first hand in the ruins of ancient Roman cities. These boys and their classmates are realizing the full meaning of usemper fidelis, alas sustineo, and Hsemper paratus. Latin formulas are being translated by doctors and nurses in urgent emergencies in hospitals at the front. For those who must work at home Latin presents a cultural background and offers a greater appreciation of our language and its derivation. Once again Caesar steps out of the Latin book to speak for the heroes of 1944. May their vow to the enemies of freedom be veni, vidi, vici.

RUTH COBLENTZ MARCIA OWINGS CLASS PROPHECY In 1960 the sponsors of the class of 1944 decided to test the Tolleston Raider of Gary which had been remodeled by Richard Bartholomew and see what had happened to their graduates. Pilot Ladd. Co-pilot Flick, Bombardier Cob- lentz, Navigator Comeford, Tail Gunner Coble, and Hostess Owings promised to report later to Principal Peter Reigert what they had seen. First of all the crew went to the OPA where Nadine Kile issued gas to Pilot Ladd and told him about Clara Olivadoti's transfer to Logansport from the Morrow Nut House. With the tanks filled the plane flew to New York. There the faculty met Ioan Rakowski, star of the Broadway hit Senior Miss, followed by a pack of wolves. one of which they identified as Floyd Vaughn. On Fifth Avenue they met Catherine Kolic. successor to Kate Smith Cin voice onlyl, hurrying to her weekly broadcast from Radio City. In Times Square the group bought flowers from a vendor whom they recognized as Ann Petrutch. She told them to tune in on Crime Doctor, featuring Dorothy Woloszyn. On Wall Street they met Ann Hudak, who told them she was a suc- cessful broker, and Irene Mizerak, whose picture was in the leading magazines advertising Colgate's Tooth Paste. The air party then flew to Washington, where they met lean Edson, secretary to President Charlesworth. On a brief tour of the White House the group met Bill Bray. ace re- porter of the Chicago Herald Tribune, and Edward Berry, who had been promoted to Chief Sanitary Commissioner of the White House Floors. Flying to South America, the pedagogical crew was grounded in the midst of a Brazilian jungle by a tropical storm. To their surprise Florence Zavada was concocting Sunday specialties for the natives who were conducting re- ligious services for the white traders. Marie Hostetler led all song services, to the dismay of the natives. On'a non-stop flight to Africa the crew saw Wallace Leshk, the famous hunter, sometimes called the second Frank Buck, giving orders to a hired porter whom he called Mike Yurchak. Deep in the interior of Africa they discovered George Schaser teaching the natives to jitterbug, much to the consternation of the hard-working missionary, Glenn Hargens. In Italy Ronald laeger, a tycoon of the spaghetti business, entertained the Tolleston Raider's crew at his restaurant: the high spots of the floor show were a vocal solo by Helen Latkowski and a piano solo' by Lillian Lewandowski. The arrival of Iohn Baran, a famous gondolier from Venice, al- most stole the show. When the faculty crew arrived in Paris, they were just in time for the opening of Mary Wanat's Style Shoppe. The famous model. Miriam Smeltzer, was wearing the latest creation of that world-famous designer Iohn Radis. They also met Frank Kryszek, the crooner, on a personal appear- ance tour of the world. The crew discovered Edgar Macey at work shooing the bats out of the belfries of the Notre Dame Cathedral. Hostess Owings was found to be too sick to continue the tour immediately so she was left in the care of Lieutenant Beckham, a Red Cross nurse. Landing at a London airport, the teachers were greeted by Iohn Fengya who was still in his first year at Oxford. Patty Taylor, noted 'news analyst and journalist, showed them the sights in London. Imagine their surprise when they found out that Edward Gottschling was the repair man for the Big Ben in the Tower of London! Lee Morris, a lieutenant at Scotland Yard, collided with the group while he was on the trail of Albert Brabazon, the author: Lee wanted to know who the murderer was in Al's serial The Perfect Crime. The crew went to the famous Covent Gar- den Theatre to hear the opera Figaro. and were very im- pressed by Richard Lawrence's singing the title role with Shirley Nelson in the opposite role. Visiting the London Museum, .the air party beheld Marie Toth re-wrapping the Egyptian mummies to gain experience for her nursing career. After touring London, the faculty returned to Paris to pick up their recovered hostess. Then Nayigator Comeford made one of her rare mistakes and caused them to land in China instead of India. l l l 1 f 1 l' in l l l' 1 5 t ,L ....,.,..t., ., . ,...r........ ..,. ...........................d..,......, ......, A-.. ,. , ...- .........................,. -- .. ..,.,.... -,.-..... ,L .- ..............A..,.,. . 4 P , F E l r I V i E n i 5 r 5 I 5 E i i l K if F. .l I , k.....-,... CLASS PROPHECY-Continued In China the teachers met Ioyce Richmond working as a medical missionary. ln Shanghai they were shown around by Donald Cole, ambassador to China, and they rode in jinrikishas. When each one paid his coolie, Bombardier Coblentz discovered that her coolie was really Ioe Ozug. He informed them that Betty Taylor was private secretary to Madame Chiang Kai-shek. On the way across the Pacific to the west coast the plane was forced to land on a nearby ocean liner because a gremlin by the name of Dan Wilson had ripped one of the wings. Mary Lou Alt, ship's doctor, made sure they had no injuries. They were heartily welcomed by Captain Bob Meyers, who suggested a refreshing swim in the pool. They were pleasantly surprised to see Ross Devitt acting as life- guard. After their swim the crew went to the dining deck where they were greeted by Willard Sonnenberg, the head waiter. The teachers recognized an interpretive dancer in the floor show to be Tillie Hallmen and the master of cere- monies to be Charles Henke. The waitress for their table was Betty Flatt. When the group went to the galley to compliment the cook on the delicious food, they discovered that Iames Whittaker was the chef. While they were loung- ing on the deck. a huge wave washed a raft up on the deck. The crew was very startled to see Adeline Kucson occupy- ing the raft. She told them she was running away from a persistent Fuller Brush salesman.,William Kaletta. After the plane was repaired, the travelers took off again. They turned on the radio to pass away the time on the long ocean journey ahead. On the first short wave station they found they had tuned in on a very familiar voice. The announcer said, Your announcer is Max Slatton. This is station WIND in Gary, brought to you twenty-four hours daily by the courtesy of Tolleston High School. Ladies! For one week only. Patty Brownell, the famous hula dancer, will demonstrate her swinging hips at Madame Maresko's Reducing School, at which Franklin Enrico. presi- dent of the Gary Bank. is a steady customer. , Here's an interesting item for today! Dorothy Roth, the season's celebrated debutante, married Major William Schle- gel, formerly of the U. S. Marines. Attending the wedding were Norman Wilson, prominent Chicago lawyer, Iohn Maruhnick. vice-president of the Carnegie-Illinois Steel Corporation, and Ellis Snyder, honorable mayor of Gary. The only woman ever to obtain a- doctor's degreehfrom Gary's Institute of Analytical Technology in Industrial Chemolysis is Doris Petrovich, who graduated yesterday from the institution. Julianne Guba. the well-known socialite, entertained Alice Lundberg, the noted lecturer and after-dinner speaker, in her palatial home last week. We hear that Mildred DeLaughter, plastic heiress. is 'that way' about the distinguished comedian, Steve Rozsa. Ladies, are you thin, worn-out, listless and haggard? Then you're in a bad fix. Why don't you visit Norma Bloksha's Popcorn Emporium at 503 Broadway. or place an order by calling Central 9909? I repeat, call Central 9909. The director of the Board of Health, Nelda Schuh, has just issued the statement that all dogs without a shampoo and a haircut are a menace to society, and will be taken to the dog pound by the city's chief dog-catcher, Tony Rose. Governor Miles Vitkus is at this time enjoying a well- earned rest at Gary's Lakeside Hotel. owned and operated by Ioan Neitzel. During this off-the-record visit Governor Vitkus is having his portrait painted by the noted artist. Helen Filipovich. The million-dollar lawsuit against the Dorothy Davis Hair Bleach Corporation by Idamae Clement, the actress. is still unsettled. The movie star claims that her hair was dyed permanently green, instead of the expected temporary peroxide blonde. Listeners! lf you are in need of relaxation and enjoy- ment, go to Marjorie Iaeger's Roller Rink at Fifth and Con- necticut, and see Margaret Cenko. champion of last year's roller-skating contest. . ...............A..........,, -- . .. ...,.. - , , Tonight at eight o'clock the famous dancing team. Iessie Cornell and Betty Paczolt will perform at Memorial Audi- torium. The Red Cross. sponsoring a drive in Gary this week. will be represented by Doctor Dorothy McKaly, who recently won fame by her discovery of a new anti-gray hair vitamin. The new conductor of the Gary Civic Symphony Or- chestra is Gloria Powers. In the fifth concert of the season next Sunday, the guest artist will be the famed pianist. Helen Dymanowski. Suddenly the program was cut off by static and Pilot Ladd realized that they were over Hollywood. Since they needed gas, Pilot Ladd landed there. ln their short stay the crew saw the premiere performance of Mary Lubash in the Ice Follies of 1960 and met Lucille McFall, an extra at Warner Brothers. They found that Helen Kowal and Katie David were still arguing over who is to be.Carmen Miranda's suc- cessor. On Hollywood Boulevard the air party ran into Iosephine Basiak who said she had become a chorus girl. Visiting the Brown Derby, the surprised travelers were greeted by the new owner, Irene Bloksha. Suddenly they heard loud knocks overhead. but their fears were some- what allayed when they were told that the roof was being fixed by Anne Maris. At the Brown Derby they also met producer and director Ed Hrischuk, who was accompanied by the Acamedy Award winner, Ann Kokinda. Every member of the crew nearly choked on the lumpy tapioca pudding that was served: when they went back to the kitchen to investigate. who, of all people. should be cook. but Ioe O'Brock! On the way back to the airport the teachers were ac- costed by Government Inspector Margaret Garbus. but they were released when recognized. Arriving at the air- port, the group found a mechanic and radio repair man still working on the plane. Imagine their surprise when they recognized them as Mary Horbovetz and Helen Vis- losky. When they had finished checking the plane. the travelers started their last lap homeward. Upon landing at the Gary Municipal Airport. seventh largest in the world, they were met by a delegation of women from different organizations. Loretta Pukoszek rep- resented the Civic Sewing Circle. Rose Rado the Iunior League of Allied Artists. Laura Kolodziej the S. P. C. A., Nardine Bonomo the Audubon Society, and Alma Kurimski the Y. W. C. A. Each delegate secured a date from one or two members of the crew, at which to tell her organiza- tion about the trip. Charles Price approached the weary travelers and told them he was their chauffeur and that he hadto start imme- diately. Traffic Officer Wesley Demko overtook their speed- ing limousine and took them to court. Iudge Iune Purcell sentenced them to thirty days in jail. Marion Pope took their pictures for the rogues' gallery and Iohn Francus took their fingerprints in the event of future misdemeanors. ln the cells they met Henry Herma. who was serving a sentence of ninety days for killing five helpless puppies: he had really only eaten five hot dogs with a.fork. The guard, George Stefanko, regularly brought in their food, prepared by Matron Mary Skala. The police chief, Harold Brown, was persuaded to release the teachers by the wiles of Geraldine Powers, the substitute teacher for civics and economics. Returning to school very much embarrassed at their experience in jail. the teachers were joyously greeted by Genevieve Pete, assistant gym teacher, by Ann Toth, sub- stitute librarian. by Chris Kaletta. head of the R.O.T.C., and by Polly Iurcik, home visitor. In their report to Principal Reigert, the teachers expressed pride in the achievements of their graduating class. They were all so surprised at their students' rise to civic, na- tional, and international importance that they almost be- lieved they had dreamed the whole trip. 0 nn. ..-, - .. ,....-rl-..m..... . . v- K 4 4 3 i 1 I 4 ,,.,,pn-w ' 4 4 4 4 2 4 I 'Y Y 4 13 14 I 4 4 1 4 4 4 4 4 1 l 4 i Y 4 4 4 W 4 54 K 1 i 4 U WWW!!
