SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Beneath the heat of the summer sun on Aug. l4, l944, fifty-four boys and girls filed into the English room. Young and ignorant to be sure, but proud of their new position as freshmen of Tony High School. A few weeks later they elected their class officers, Pres., Robert Mataczynski, Vice Pres., Clyle Novak, Sec., Emelie Voda, Treas., Geraldine Kolar. Oufclass advisor was Miss Doris Nelson. One afternoon in October the sophomores gave an initiation party. The following Febru- ary a return party was given. Some of the freshmen had prepared a program which every- one seemed to enjoy. We began our sophomore year in school with a class of fifty-five. That year our class officers were Pres., Jack Fischer, Vice Pres., Donald Ferr, Sec., Geraldine Hauser, Treas., Emelie Voda. Mr. Wedwick was our class advisor. ln October our class entertained the freshmen with an initiation party. They haven't forgotten it yet. Our junior year was an enjoyable one with forty-eight students enrolled. Our class advisors were Mrs. Otto and Mr. Beaster. Our class officers were Pres., James Burch, Vice Pres., Tony Fedyn, Sec., Rita Petricek, Treas., Marjorie Schultz, Reporter, Emelie Voda. One of the high lights of the year was the Junior Class Play, Welcome, Danger , the first to be held in Tony for many years. lt was very successful. Mr. Chase directed it. In the spring of the year the Junior Prom was held. Prom king was James Burch. He chose as his queen Jean Verdegan of the sophomore class. The scene was a Moonlit Park. lt was said to be the most beautiful prom ever held at Tony. Every year at Halloween a carnival is held at Tony. One candidate from each class is nominated for queen of the carnival. We seem- ed to have been very fortunate to have our can- didate win every year. ln the first year Ger- aldine Hauser won. Her king was LeRoy Lam- oureux, the following year Emelie Voda reigned with Jack Fischer as king. ln our junior year Jean Chamberlin rose victorious with Tony Fedyn as king. ln our senior year a Christmas Prom was held in place of the carnival. ln our last year we had Mr. Smith as our class advisor. Our officers were Pres., George Velten, Vice Pres., Jerry Hauser, Sec., Gerald- ine Hauser, Treas., Erwin Hahn, Reporter, Darleen Almen. V On a beautiful day in September the senior class had their Sneak Day at Burnet State Park at Cornell. Everyone enjoyed the trip. A Pie Social was held on Nov. 7, for the benefit of the Annual. The valedictorian of our class was Rita Petricek and the salutatorian was Marcella Vozabal. Baccalaureate was held in the Catholic Church on May 2. Commencement exercises for forty-seven graduates took place on Thurs- day evening, May 6th, So closed' the high school career for one of the most amazi-ng classes ever to invade Tony.

SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY With time to spare I started thinking about my old Tony classmates and decided to see how successful they all are. There's RICH- ARD MINDYKOWSKI and JOHN KUZNIEW- SKI, in the laboratory at Washington, D. C. They are now heads of research for a new light bulb using atomic power. They tell me TONY POSPISIL is enjoying living off the mil- lions he inherited from his uncle. New York is a huge city to get lost in, but that's what I did. Luckily, I ran into DORIS KUNKEL who is secretary to DON FERR and FRANK HUHN, co-owners of the Ferr-Huhn Service Station Company. After leaving New York, I ventured to Florida where THERESE CHARAIS' piano concerts are fast becoming famous. On to Texasl TOM PETERSEN and ART HURIN, well-known chain store millionaires, happened to be there for a convention of which LEROY SMRSTICK is chairman. I hear GERALD HAU- SER just said Hello to the Man in the Moon by means of his jet-propelled plane. lsn't that something? Speaking of planes-I see EMELIE VODA is Chief Stewardess of the United Airlines and has many girls working under her. Two noted bone specialists, GEORGE VELTEN and BOB MATACZYNSKI, have just made a new find in the cure for TB of the Bone called Thybicanalysis. MARJORIE SCHULTZ has her own beauty shop in Cali- fornia. Women from all over the country come for the famous Miss Marge hair stylesl As- sisting beauticians are VIRGINIA EVANS and JOAN TODAVCHICK. Washington boasts about their world-famous journalist, ARNOLD HEBARD. He had news of a renowned artist, JOAN SYBERS, whose latest drawing of WAL- TER HRABAN brought 55,000,000 on auc- tion. Some prize! Coming back to New York on my way to Europe, I attended a Dodgers baseball game and who should be pitching but Curve-ball BURCH lalias JIMII Coach Hub tbetter known to us as ERWIN HAHNI is hoping for a world series win. Hopping a ship was quite a new experience for me. I barely made it before the ship puIled anchor and so I searched for the captain to tell him about it. I was amazed when I saw it was RICHARD CHRISTMAN who was sailing his l00th time. Ah, Paris! The Home of Fashion! MARCELLA VOZABAL and IRENE SCHAR- ENBROCK have a dress designing shop. Their creations are simply out of this world! On a European tour, FRANCES HANSON, CAR- MANE MANSKE and FLORENCE MATA- CZYNSKI appeared in a famous opera La Cascade in Italy. Their voice-trainer, JANE CRABB, and their publicity manager, WAL- TER LEE, told me they will be in Germany next, so I went too. Such a surprise! I stepped off the plane in Germany just in time to see Dr. CLYLE NOVAK and Nurse RITA PET- RICEK who are attending a medical conven- tion. The United States Representative to Russia met me in Moscow. Rumor has it that TONY FEDYN is highly welcomed by the Russians as he is well-fitted for the responsibil- ity. Also in Russia is JACK FISCHER whose job as Secretary of Agriculture is to find new farming opportunities. I met GERALDINE HAUSER in England. She is giving speeches about the planet Mars, obtaining her informa- tion from DUANE STINE, who recently made a trip there. A new rocket plane is being in- vented by LEROY LAMOUREUX who is now in Sweden gathering a little know how on some of the metals found there. His idea is to make planes out of lighter but stronger metal for the sake of speed. DOLORES CRABB is in Finland giving lectures on atomic re- search,radar, and jet-propulsion. In her labora- tory in New Mexico she discovered cooking with atomic power, together with DARLEEN ALMEN, who demonstrates the use of it. Tour- ing China and Japan are GLADYS BARBER, NELLIE KOZIAL and ETHEL KRISIK. They are teaching fashions in clothing and hair styles. Gone are kimonos and in their places are the latest fashions. Taking another plane I continued to Alaska. LOUISE LABERGE is teaching the 3 R's to 200 first graders in a building heated by sunlight and made from glass. Skipping by the U. S., my next stop was South America where I saw the Barnum- Bailey Circus starring their famous acrobat, BETTY SLESAR. CORNELIUS GROOTHOUSEN is im- proving farming conditions in Argentina and has so far produced twice as much as ever be- fore on the same land. And so we bring to a close this 1958 re- view of one of the most successful classes of TONY HIGH SCHOOL.
