Three-Fourths Toward the Goal Nineteenfninety find an old lady rocking in her rock' ing chair. Cn her lap is a scrapbook that brings back memories of happy days at T.I-I.S. I'Iere's a snapshot of Camilla Lovett and Doris jenkins, the Freshmen May Queen attendants. This old football pennant reminds her of the cheer' leaders, Doris jenkins and Claire I-Iillstrom, and of the majorettes, Mary Lou Harris. Camilla Lovett, and Mar' ilyn Pogue. She well remembers how lovely their May Queen attendants, Mary Lou Harris and Ivlarilyn Pogue, looked in their pink gowns. She has looked at this page many times for it tells of her junior year. She has told her grandchildren often of the enioyment she had watching the play He Wars A Gay Senoritaf' On the program are listed the officers' names: Roy Cellich, Carl Dorosa, Catherine Petrina. and -Ieanne Brown. Also listed are the candy sellers: Doris jenkins, Lois Johnson, Phyllis Green, and Rena Mahr. She laughs as she recollects the time the Junior girls wore large hair ribbons. Because the girls resembled bunnies, they were presented carrots from the boys. Many times the elderly lady has remembered how lovely our two blonde May Queen attendants, Catherine Petrina, and Lillian Lovre looked. She recalls how tired she was the night she painted the town in preparation for the Trafford vs. Pitcairn football game. Oh, yes! she was more exhausted the night she scrubbed it off. How grateful she was for the help of some of the boys. The memory of Calvin I-Iolsingefs favorite subject those Russiansi' has brought to her many a chuckle. This sweet old lady will never forget the time she took off school to go see Frank Sinatra. She sighs as she ref members how wonderful he had sung. She needs nothing to remind her of the Prom. Breakf ing tradition, her class held the Prom at the Jaektown Hotel. How heavenly it was dancing to the music of Buddy Raye's Orchestra. Suddenly the door bell rings and she is brought back to reality. Her reminiscing will have to be put off till another day. 18

,. .1 'Wil SENIOR PROPI-IECY Some Years Hence! You are now entering the town of Haven, elef vation 900 feet, established in 1955 by Trafford Class of 1944. Traffic laws strictly enforced, Chief of Police Robert Brezovic-Welcome! Passing the palatial residence of one George Horanic, retired A E? P millionaire, we spot a sleepy town character who ilooks familiar. Yes, it's Carl Peduzzi! It seems he forgot to pay his pro- tection dues to Butchie-Boy Czapor ,... and he had such a nice garage too! However, he intends to open a new Roller Rink if everything works out. Irene Marowski, Helen Petrina, and Emma Zigarovich are working at George Hall's Club Haveanf other. Success for the club's floor show is given to Employment Su' pervisor Charles Monahan. Banf dy's Dandiesu is the featured band now playing there, among his famous players are grouped John Klovanik, Richard Q3 timesj Goodman, and Harry Sarbo, Bennie Carter does the dancing and Al Voc' carro and Mairney Lovett are featured as vocalists. Our major critics, including Edward A. Howes, say Vaccarro's got Sinatra beat all around. The Club Haveanother's rival is the Chuckfaf luck Cafe, run by Joe Nabuda. Working for joe are johnny Vecchio, who also doubles as our anti' gambling commissioner, Wayne Frye and his viof lin, and Stanley Szajna the bouncer. John Me' halic's 'LMad Mehalicsf' novelty band is surpassing Spike jones in popularity. The Chuckfafluck feaf tures an allfgirl staff with Clara Zigarovich, Anna Bucar, Patricia Gorman in the kitchen, Helen Warden, Meryle Kaufman, and Marie Kljucarich as waitresses, and that sensational allfgirl orchestra led by Elmer, Lovre and Doris Macesic, Stephie Sedor, and Alma Pogue included in it as featured soloists. Not only have the women secured an upper hand in this club, but in the town itself,- seeing that Helen Lukehart opened her Barber Shoppe, Margaret DiRinaldo and her CleanfSoul Shoe Repair Shop, and Catherine Bostedo took over the former Winkie's Drug Store. Baker and Koon's Mortuary is doing a bang-up business, what with their slogan You kill'em-we bury 'emf' The flowers are bought from Dolly's, formerly Leger's. The new M Es? M fMinkle and Martinoj Rag- road are doing great business, says Helen Baric, their private secre' tary. She reports they cleared over ten million last year. Betty Meager and Mary Krynak are the leading fashion designers of the uptown district, and Harriette Dean, Stella Wrubal, and Olga Kochanov employed as models. Alfonse Gioia edits the Haven Holler, an' antifvarga paper. He seems definitely profRoosevelt this time. Working on the Holler are Margaret Wiser, assistant editor, Margaret Dubrave, who edits the Society Sheet, Agnes Chester-comic strip artist and creator of Sherlock Houses, and Frank Krecelic, our lonelyfheart1s editor. Marjorie How' ell and Margaret Lovre still didn't return from the Wacs yet. And, oh yes ,... Sam Cercone. He's the character that wanders around aimlessly with the abandon of a lost soul, saying in a soft voice, Well, nowql wouldn't say that! Haven! Mmmmmmm!

Little did they dream that hy the end of the year they would he spending many more hours in timefroom than in their class rooms. After electing officers. joe Tewes, Presidentg Dan Vuic, Vice Presidcntg Elsie Kromer, Secretary, and john Zyhowski as Treasurer, plans were prepared for the two parties. At these the girls worked fiercely dragging the hoys onto the dance floor. We came out, as usual. on the bottom in the has' kethall tournament hut made up for it in volleyhall. We were represented by Christine Pogue and Norma Rishel in the May' Day Ceremonies. In 1943 we came hack to school as Sophomores 59 strong. Although separated and divided into three rooms we still managed to make as much if not more noise as before. Up hudded many promising young 19 wolves, two of whom were Charles Connor and Bill Palehak. Owen Gorman was appointed dictator, with -Ioe Tewes and Elsie Kromer mcekly 171 carrying out his plans as vicefdictator and secretaryftreasurer ref spectively. At our parties the situation was slightly reversed from last year with the hoys doing all the dragging. Audrey and Cccda liyened these parties with their -litterhug Exhibitions. As Sophomores. the haskethall teams ended the tournament with a smile on their faces for they had the honor of heing second only to the Seniors. Jean Dahlstrom and Elsie Kromer were chosen to grace the May Queens Court. As a class the Sophomores are leading the rest of the school in their percentage in the hond and stamp sale. This is a record we are justly proud of. Of the three Sophomore rooms, Mr. Lloyd's leads the parade in percentage.
