Following months of delay, the building slowly began to take the form of a magnificent, thoroughly modern, four-story structure that was completed in February, l935. Within a few days after the school was dedicated to the memory of William Harvey Wells, the doors of this splendid edifice were opened to 3,000 students. At the dedication ceremonies, in memory of W. l-l. Wells, this edifice was named Wells High School, thus enabling the cherished memory of William l-l. Wells to live on, and to inspire the forthcoming genera- tion of youth. FRANK PUFONT. 4 WILLIAM HARVEY WELLS William 1-larvey Wells, son of a humble farmer, was born on Feb- ruary 27, 1812, in Tolland, Connecticut. As a boy he attended the district school. 1-le very early displayed a lust for knowledge and predilection for educating others that was to enable him to achieve lasting distinction as an educator. Despite poor financial back- ground, impaired eyesight and failing health, he attained prominence as principal of the Putnam Free School at Newburyport, Massa- chusetts. 1-le reached the zenith of his career in 1856, when he was elected Superintendent of Schools of Chicago, lllinois. Two years after his resignation C 18881, because of poor health, he was honored by having the newly erected edifice where the present Wells High School stands named in his honor. For a time Wells lived contentedly with his family in the city of Chicago. Cn Ianuary 21, in the year of 1885, Wm. 1-1. Wells passed away, grieved by all who knew and loved him. . 1CSEP1-1 MICHAELSWL 5 THE COMMUNITY Spiritual Guidance The Wells Community is a typical industrialized big-city center. Its educational program was inaugurated three years ago with curriculum improvements tending to dis- cover the true needs ot the community such as the industrial plants, the community settlement houses, the recreational centers, historical points ot interest and all the opportunities tor enriching the school curriculum, many ot which had not been fully utilized. A survey ot the community facilities conducted by the social science classes ot Wells proved conclusively that they are of inestimable value to the stu- dents. A distinct social relationship is maintained through the activities ot the churches and settlement houses. There are the community libraries, national newspapers, publi- cations, movies, and organizations which attord recrea- tional participation to all. These community centers furnish varied programs centered about the tour areas ot education, namely: social relations, leisure, vocations, and health. To acquaint the student with the many vocational oppor- tunities ot the community, tours are conducted into the Social Agencies Historical Relationships Community Organizations industrial lite of the neighborhood. To promote health, there are conveniently located clinics and relief stations, parks, and playgrounds for the youth. For safety, street car islands are built to protect the pedestrian and the streets are zoned tor safer driving of vehicles. Thus the com- munity provides active measures to be ot service to the pupils and contributes a variety ot opportunities and activities. Industrial Life Health Serv: ealth Guidance OF SER The World of Wells is itself a community, serving youth by providing the opportunities that are parallel to those afforded by the larger community and by offering those educational facilities that are pertinent to the functions of the school. Wells combines the community service with its own and thus becomes a community school with increased facilities to aid in carefully training and educat- ing its students for Worthy community membership. Extensive social relations are carried on through the W'ells Civic Association and its services to the active and associate members. The service groups are excellent chances to develop true social relationships. The special interest clubs promote development of hobbies and recrea- tional activities that can be continued into the vacation period and become useful diversions. Tuberculin tests and health classes offer protection to the health of the pupils. Safety bulletins are circulated, read, and discussed in the division rooms. Wells has a wide field of vocational expe- THE SCHOOL Community Survey riences which the pupils find advantageous in their search for a vocation. Athletics are sponsored both for leisure and health developing purposes. The Wells student steps forth into the community after graduation prepared to occupy his place in the complex social structure of his community.

Now with the advent of modern times, the churches have tour it necessary to widen their functions tc include socic educational and recreational activities. The churches have included classes in craft Work, dr' matics, choirwork, Welfare, and vacation schools. Anothr type oi social activity is represented by the Catholic You Organization consisting ot a Boys Division and a Gtr Division. Through these groups the young folks increas their circle oi triends and develop their special interest The close contact with the world into which they will soc be thrust is strengthened by these social relations. 'W ith these beneficial groups being formed in tl churches and cooperating with the schools, we look tc ward to the day when the youth of the community will s betore the world an excellent example ot young manhoc and young Wornanhood. 8 Social Experiences We Go to Camp New World Citizens Norihwestem Settlemeni SETTLEMENT HOUSES lt is the aim ot the neighborhood settlement houses to provide a center tor higher civic and social lite. ln this statement are embodied the principles from which these community centers have developed. ln tultilling this aim they have brought the youth ot the community together and guided them in recreational and educational activities. A ln their spacious halls the youth ot the community gather tor evenings ot tun and dancing. The neigh- borhood houses provide courses in home training and cultural advancement. They maintain summer camps for under privileged children. They guide and sponsor debates on educational topics. They otter classes where the youth are taught the requirements for good citizenship. By participating in these social and edu- cational activities the student becomes a good citizen oi his school as Well as ot his community. 9 Laird House St. Stephens Above: Erie Neighborhood House Below: Chicago Commons Space to Play The Polish Roman Catholic Union Eckhart Park Library The community of Wells High offers many profitable occa- sions for the students to occupy their leisure time whether that time be educational or recreational. It has become habitual with the students to carry into school life Whatever they do in the community or visa versa. The parks of the Wells High community have excellent libraries with a very wide selection of books for increasing one's knowledge, and facilities for many sports which students, Who are not candi- dates for inter-scholastic teams, are urged to participate in. These public institutions for recreation also have classes for both tap and ballroom dancing, swimming and other en- joyments. Attending neighborhood motion picture theatres is another means of using leisure time, for today the movie industry is bringing to life many historical names. The Polish Roman Catholic Union with its museum offers many enjoyable hours of viewing the achievements, medals, books, money, relics of the World War, paintings, and many other objects relating to Poland and its history.

Here the pupils, who are not active members of a school team, are welcomed to join in the many sports. In addition, the playground facilities are frequently utilized for school contests in the community. The directors of public library branches and other community libraries meet at inter- vals with principals and school librarians to adapt the library to school purposes, to foster Widespread recreational and work types of reading during out-of-school hours. Therefore vocational, as well as recreational, potentialities are inherent in these contacts with community projects. Special effort is directed toward promotion of wholesome projects to occupy pupils during vacational time with the purpose of capitalizing on lines of the individuals special interests and aptitudes. Constructing objects in home work- shops, knitting garments for personal wear, and developing skill on a musical instrument are examples of hobbies and Vacational projects which assist in conserving the morale of many Vlfells pupils during their leisure periods. polish Chicago Daily Museums ot National Interest X sw ,. i Banking in the Community From Ou: Roof Top to You Industrial Contacts CGMMLINITY Relationships between the school and com- munity are essential to the efficient functioning of modern education. Embracing Wells is a community teeming with industrial lite. The utilization of the community and its educational activities are vital to the success of the school's service to the students. Wells has attempted to bridge the gap previously existing between the school and the community in its educational program. A bird's eye view of the Wells community, displaying as it does an intermingling ot resi- dential and industrial centers not found in many school communities, reveals the possibilities inherent in such a program. Without the necessity of leaving the school community the students have been able to receive actual vocational Contact with various important industries through the medium of tours conducted through several of the large indus- trial plants. Student Tours Top: Large Factories Line the River Below: Tanneries Are Common to the Area Street Scene Top: Unloading Cargo from Barges Below: Industries of Many Varieties VQCATICDIXIS Commercial students have received valuable lessons in the organization ot a large business With its various departments such as ordering, billing, tiling and mailing. Through these prac- tical contacts With industry and business an opportunity is provided tor planning the student's future vocationally. Bus and street car transportation is available when the industries are located in the extremely distant parts ot the community. A minimum ot interference with class appointments occurs, however, as most ot the concerns are Within Walking range. This is of great advantage. Large excursions to more remote parts ot the community are usually conducted after school or on Saturdays. The commercial concerns and industries coop- erate generously with the school and effort is exercised by the school to avoid visiting certain businesses too frequently. Community Relief Station Safety in the Community Among the numerous services that the community offers, perhaps the most important is its provision for the safeguarding of public health. This includes health services rendered by dental and medical clinics, relief stations and health building organizations as well as safety measures, provided for the protection of life. Were it not for these services the health of our community would not be adequately cared tor. No longer need faulty teeth, defective eyesight, nor any other physical defect go uncared for because of a lack of sufficient funds. Medical clinics such as the Northwestern Medical clinic, Wicker Park clinic, and the Municipal Tuberculosis clinic care for the ills of needy persons who cannot afford to pay the regular fee. 14 CQMMUNITY Municipal Tuberculosis Clinic Northwestern Medical Clinic HEALTH Medical Clinic Polish Sokol Health Building Exercises Transportation with Sutety The relief stations play an equally important part in preserving the health and the morale of the community through supplying the needy with adequate nourishing food and with other necessities of life. The many public parks and playgrounds in the com- munity afford innumerable health and recreational activities to the younger generation. These parks and playgrounds keep the young people off the dangerous streets and corners when not in school. There are com- munity organizations such as the Polish Sokol where many happy hours are spent in gymnastics, recreation and caiisthenics. Safety in the community is a vital part of health preservation and much care and precaution is taken toward the perfection of that end. Street repairs and other safety precautions are steps taken by the com- munity to minimize accidents. New projects are constantly being carried out to improve and preserve the health of the community. 15 SCDCIAI. RELATIONS W. C. A. Office Clerks , Tuning In W. C. A.

To completely do this the school must offer more opportunity for the Well- balanced growth and development of its stu- dents. The W'ells Civic Association, while presenting a commendable service to the student body, gives individual pupils a chance to assume leadership and positions of responsibility. EX- perience in political activities is obtained through active participation in the yearly convention and election for association officers. The W. C.

Excursions and tours into the industrial and commercial life and vocational activities of the surrounding neighborhood enable the pupil to see for himself the practicability of his vocational courses in school. By providing an opportunity for the students to operate the motion picture projector, those interested in this modern occupation are afforded a measure of vocational guidance. Social relationship between mothers and teachers are established through visiting days. An informal program is presented by the students for the entertainment of their parents, after which refresh- ments are served. At the conclusion of the program, the parents and teachers may confer as to what vocational guidance can be given the individual pupil and which he can use to his best advantage, Thus cooperation and sincere effort make possible such diversified vocational instruction and guidance. 35 Below: Factory Made Shoes.

Many steps have been undertaken to assist the students of Wells High in facilitating the mainte- nance of a sound and healthy body. Measures have been employed not only to per- fect the physical atmosphere of the school, but also, to maintain the highest sanitary conditions under which the student body functions. ln the cooking classes balanced diets are planned by the girls. The water used in the swim- ming tank passes through many purifying proc- esses before it is ready for use. To better keep themselves physically fit the pupils study the anatomy of the human body. ln this course they are taught the structure of the body. Here they learn how to assist in maintain- ing the systematic function of the complex human organism. Yearly the entire student body combines its efforts in cleaning up the unsanitary conditions in the neighborhood, destroying the breeding places for flies, mosquitoes and vermine in a general attempt to avert all deleterious or insalubrious material. 36 Anatomy Dietiiicns Cleqnqgp Showers Clean-up Parade Correct Diets Winning Health Ventilation HEALTH Weighing In Eye Tests Relaxation in the Rest Room . . A SCHOOL SERVICE One of the most recent additions to the health program at Wells created to assist in the safe-guarding of students against any physical disorder or pain, is the Health Center under the able supervision of Doctor lackson. The slightest provocation or symptom of defect in eye- sight, condition of teeth, or any imperfection of the students family physician or is cared for at a nearby clinic. Due to the fact that many of the parents of the students are unable to have their children attended by a doctor the clinics have proved to be of great assistance in their contributions to a sound condition of the human body. Cleanliness of the body is the significant point stressed again and again in both gym departmentsg the students are required to take a shower after every gym period. Another important branch given to preserving the health of Wells students is the restroom where a matron is in daily supervision. Here the minor accidents and ailments are treated, such as toothaches, headaches, first aid, removing foreign bodies from the eyes and other casualties. Classes for the Chicago High School cooks at Wells also contribute to health consciousness: these assemblages of the culinary artists are held in the dietitian's kitchen to plan the menus for all the high schools for the coming week and a sample of each dish is prepared so there will be no misunderstanding as to what it is and how it is prepared. The Worthy health program set up at Wells carries over into the home, a vital part of a community. Good health means usefulness and happiness both in the home and outside of it. 37 HEALTH Upper Left: Valley Ball Champions Lower Left: Letter Girls Basketball Champions fu 0 ., U Upper Right: Captain Basketball Champio Lower Right: Lile Saving Corps ACTIVITIES Upper Left: Senior Basketball Team Lower Left: Iunior Baskeiball Team Senior Swimming Team 39 Upper Right: Gym Leaders Lower Right: Life Saving Corps WELLS I-IONOR SOCIETY The awarding of honors for service made each semester is based upon the principles governing the student activity organizations at Wells.

As we entered our tinal semester prepara- tions were begun tor those traditional duties which are sacred to each graduating class. The graduating exercises capture the atten- tion ot the entire class. lt is the day all seniors look torward to since their matriculation as freshmen. Great etfort is used to make each class graduation better than the previous ones. And so, lune l6th is Red Letter Day tor every graduating senior this year. Next in importance is the Senior Prom. This will be held in the school gymnasium on Iune lOth, a gala night at Wells. Class Day is lune l4th and everyone is anx- iously awaiting the occasion. This is one day when the seniors lose their dignity and have one grand party. High school days are over tor the class oi Iune, l938, and nearly over tor the seniors ot February, l939, but the memories will never cease to bring joy to the hearts ot each member ot these classes. May the tond triendships formed in high school last throughout the years. School Day Friendships A SENIOR'S PRAYER Elsie Margies To live - beautifully! This, God, is all I ask: My life to be Forever as beautiful, As gloriously free And liltingly sweet As a wingingsong: Forever as beautiful In calm and majesty As the soul-lifting pride Of towering nobility, Against storm and disaster Straight and strong. But such life needs faith- Deep, trusting faith In the lovely, eternal dreams- The flaming, unlying hopes Of immortal souls, we call ideals: Ideals - thosetshining stars In the night of our life, Whose shimmering radiance Glows pure and infinite. Give rne, O God, That blessed faith Which knows however black And clouded the night, The stars shine Softly, serenely, Far beyond the In golden glory So shall I live on forever, storm, and hallowed light. beautifully! SENIOR COUNCIL Cecil The senior council originated in October, 1937, when the present graduating class was in its 4B year. The members were from the 4B classes, a boy and a girl from each class, total- ing ten students. The members were as follows: President, Loretta Dzierzanowskip Vice-Presi- dent, Kathleen Kerasiotisy Secretary, Ieanette Kissp Treasurer, Ruth Pilz: losephine Metro, Nick Phillips, Cecil Haig, Iames Ryan, Steven Solak, Frank Zaczyk. This council sponsored a senior dance before Christmas, a courtesy campaign after the holi- days, a farewell party and dance for the gradu- Haig ating class in February, and took charge of the election in March. Honorable mention was given by Principal, Paul R. Pierce, to the council for an assembly program given in Ianuary for the freshmen students. This assembly program was put on as part of the courtesy campaign. The council was dissolved the week after class election in March, nineteen-thirty-eight. Most of the council members were chosen for the class officers or committee heads after the March elections. 42 WELLSL1938 SENIORS JAMES RYAN LORETTA IEANETTE KISS MARVIN SAMUEL MILTON GRUDEWICZ President DZIERZANOWSKI Secretary Treasurer Sergeant-ai-Arms Vice President COMMITTEES PIN AND RING COMMITTEE FINANCIAL COMMITTEE ANNA SEAHOLM, Chairman ELMER IAROCI-I, Chairman RAY MILLER SOPI-IIE PALASZ NICHOLAS PHILLIPS LORRAINE WALZ IOE BAGEL AGNES SZCZYPINSKI EMILY HRANIOTIS ANGELINE HUDOBOSKA CAP AND GOWN CCMMITTEE C1-P-SS GIFT COMMITTEE IOSEPHINE METRO, Chairman HELEN MUZYKA HELEN DOROSKIN MILDRED MILLER HENRY I-IOINACKI NORMA BEHNKE, Chairman ELAINE OPLASKI EVELYN SCI-IMALL LCROY BEHNKE MARGIE PEREIN PROM COMMITTEE CECIL I-IAIG, Chairman KATHLEEN KERSIOTIS, Co-Chairman CLASS DAY COMIVIITTEE FLORENCE KAMINSKA, Chairman ANNE STOLORENA IRENE ADAMIK NORA PISI-I MITCHELL BRATKO BIDS COMMITTEE COMMENCEMENT DAY COMMITTEE RUTH PU-Z' Chcifmfm ROSE BOROWINSKI CONCETTA TUMTNC ELSE MARGIES' Chairman SABINA KRUSINSKI ROSE RASCIA MATTHEW GALLIK LORETTA KURR LEONARD KOWALSKI HELEN PETROVIC ORCHESTRA COMMITTEE SOCIAL COMMITTEE MILDRED LONGAVER, Chairman I STEVE SOLAK CEEALDLNE szoP1NsK1 FRANK ZACZY19 Chmfmcm SICISMUND LUCAS EDWARD BAETCSZEK AGNES TORNOWSKI ELINOR MALICKI IOE DE NTCCLC CASIMER TADLOWSKI DECORATIONS COMMITTEE I E ATI KAY DUBAS, Chairman PUBL C R L O LORRAINE KILBAEA SCPHLE SLOPKA PAT PETRONE ALEX WOZNAROWSKI WANDA GOPFINSKA REFRESI-IIVIENTS COMMITTEE MILDRED FLORKOWSKI, Chairman ANNE CARNEVALE ANGELINE PIETRANEK A IOSEPHINE KAMINSKI KAY MERCURIO 43 .38 GHIIIDAU IJTES IRENE ADAMIK ........

Coincidently with this historic event, We, the class of February, l939, began our high school careers as obscure freshies. This means that ours will be the very first group, to go all the way through the entire four years at the Wells High School. The preceding gradu- ating classes have all received a part of their high school training in other institutions: ours is the first to enjoy the distinction of attending our Alma Mater the entire four years. This opportunity of identifying ourselves with the highly interesting procedure incidental to setting in motion the complicated machinery of a large municipal high school, was an episode in our lives that we shall never forget. When we, as guileless, unsophisticated neophytes, first crept timidly into what was then a brand new building, on Feb. 4, 1935, we found all the confusion and turmoil that must inevitably en- sue when a school is being organized for the first time. Finally order began to emerge out of chaos. The school began to function more smoothly, the unfinished features of the build- ing were completed: much needed equipment was gradually obtained. And now, as we are face to face with the final semester of our high school careers, we can readily appraise and evaluate the tremend- ous strides our school has taken since it first emerged from the cradle. Instead of confu- sion and uncertainty, we now have one of the best organized schools in the city. Individual programs are prepared weeks in advance of the opening of a semester, with the result that a smooth beginning for each half-year period is insured. Our hall-guard system, rigidly sup- ervised and relentlessly enforced, has, by sheer merit, won the complete respect and coopera- tion of all the students. As a means of unifying and integrating the whole school, our Wells Civic Association has succeeded even beyond the dreams of its founder, our principal, Doctor Pierce. Clubs, so numerous and varied as to appeal to the hob- bies and interests of every pupil, are as much a part of the Wells' life as the classroom activ- ities. Our athletic teams, musical organizations, and school publications are on a par with the best in the city. All in all, in these few brief years, Wells, in the opinion of such unbiased observers as the inspectors of the North Central Association, has advanced to a position among the foremost high schools of the nation. It is indeed gratifying to us, members of the class of February, 1939, to feel that our con- tributions have played some part at least in the sum total of the glorious achievements just related. And now, with the final dismissal bell of this semester still echoing through the corridors, there comes the sobering realization that in a little while our high school days will be over, and we will have to say to each other that saddest of all words- fareWe1l. How hard it will be to say goodbye! We realize that the curtain is falling irrevocably on the happiest period of our lives: to know that the friendships engendered and developed by years of con- stant association-years that we toiled together, shared our joys and sorrows, and participated in one another's trials and triumphs-are ended forever. In the days that follow graduation, when we are in reminiscent mood, may memory linger most fondly as it conjures up recollections of these happy and eventful years at Wells.

People are clamoring and applauding for a young star, singing Carmen for the first time. Never has there been one like her: and the artists under the direction of RUTH PILZ, are gazing at the ceiling of the Metropolitan Opera House, fearing it may fall down and they will have to work for a change. The applause dies down as the leading orchestra of the world, conducted by SIGISMOND LUCAS with STEVE SOLAK and his clarinet, RAYMOND NOVAK at the piano, and MARGIE PERRIN with her saxophone, begins to play Habaf1era, the fa- vorite aria of Carmen, and ELSIE MARGIES steps out for an encore.

This is your cross country newscaster, IOSEPH MICHAELS, bringing you news of the past, the present, and the future of this year of 1948. The most important event of the past month occurred at Sideways, Nebraska. The Up-and- Down River overflowed its banks inundating over five hundred square acres of land. Over two thousand farmers and farm families were left homeless. We are glad to say only twenty- five casualties were reported. This low per- centage of deaths was due to the heroic efforts of two switchboard operators. These two, CON STANCE OLIVA and HELEN WITEK, have since been decorated by the government for their valor. Mass funeral services for victims were held at the undertaking parlors of SYLVESTER CAMINITI. The Red Cross cooper- ated with the state government by sending two of their most capable doctors, WILLIAM YOUNGOUIST and OLYMPIA KACZMAREK, to the stricken area. The nurses assisting the doctors were POLA BRUNINI, AMELIA BULIN- SKI, SARAH CATALANO, PALMA GIOE, ERMINIA GWOZDZ, IRENE KROLL, ELEANOR KOZAKIEWICZ, ANGELA MANZELLA, LOTTIE SAWCZUK, and LILLIAN ZAPANTIS. The state government has already begun to reforest the flood area. In charge of the Reforestation Com- mittee is TED SZYMANSKI. By far the most astounding piece of news was the marriage of the President while holding office. The new First Lady is the former Rodeo Queen, CARMELLA PLACZKIEWICZ. The bride was dressed in a flowing white satin gown designed by the noted dress designer, LILLIAN GHILARDUCCI. The maid of honor was none other than the woman senator, ANGELINE RYKALA. Also present was the President's private secretary, MILDRED CERNIGLIA. Offi- cial photographer was the famed THEODORE HRYCEI. Music for the occasion was supplied by ANTOINETTE CORTHINOS, NICK LEONE, FRED REMISZEWSKI, WALTER WOODS, and MELVIN IOHNSON and his concert drum band. Music for the private reception was furnished by RICHARD MAZURKIEWICZ, well known orchestra leader. The new First Lady assigned the internationally famous interior decorator, VIRGINIA BISBEE, to remodel the White House. The President presented his bride with a soli- taire diamond ring supplied by the eminent jeweler, IOHN TOCZEK. The Presidents per- sonal bodyguard was NORMAN GIERKE. On his way to the ELSIE ECKERT-IOE ATRIA Gymnasium for boxers and basketball players, EDWARD BOGDANSKI, former Big Ten star, lost control of his car and ambled across the college campus at ninety miles per hour. RAY ZIMMERMAN, the Wide-Awake-Half-Dead Col- lege's coach, was seriously injured. ZIMMER- MAN has sued BOGDANSKI. BOGDANSKI in turn sued HUGO MONTANARI, automobile manufacturer, charging that he allowed faulty brakes to be put in his vehicles. BOGDANSKTS lawyer, SAMUEL KAVATHAS, assures him that his case is as good as won. IOE DEZONNA, Patent Department head, announces two revolutionary inventions. One is a radio newspaper set, invented by HENRY MALECKI of the Radio Commerce Commission. The other is an accounting set that is both fireproof and waterproof so that a firm's ledgers will endure both of these hazards. This inno- vation in the art of bookkeeping was invented by FRANK PUF ONT. His motives for inventing this device were purely selfish. He likes to swim, but also has to hold down a book- keeper's job. PHILLIP GREENSPAN devised a new system of government and left for Africa to submit the natives to a trial. Now philanthropist, SIDNEY RESNIK, is financing a trip to Africa to find traces of the missing GREENSPAN. On this trip are MARY CUTRONA, ELEANOR KOZ- LOWSKI, ELEANOR LEONARD, DOROTHY NESTOS, ALICE PENICARO, MARGUERITE SOHN, ELEANOR SZPAKOWSKI, CHRISTINA SALETTA, ROSE POLAKOW, FLORENCE DEIA, WANDA DRABIK, ELEANOR GAIEWSKI. MARION KELLER, EVELYN KRUPPA, HELEN MALINOWSKI. Leading the expedition is HENRY WINEK. The expedition will first circle the globe and then proceed to Africa. Their ship, the S. S. Sinkerdrown, will be piloted by EDWARD KMIEC. The radio operator, LE ROY KONKOWSKI, promises enjoyable music throughout the entire voyage. Well, We hope they Bring Him Back Alive. Turning to a lighter vein of thought, the drama and music department reports the following: With the presentation of Rigoletto, the Metro- politan Opera Company ushers in its umpty- sixth season. In the leading roles are VALERIA BACHER and STANLEY SASIADEK. EDWARD PROROK, renowned flutist will accompany Miss BACHER when she sings the famous aria, La Donna E Mobile. Two up-and-coming stars were discovered at the revived Ziegfield Follies. These two are VIRGINIA HOFFMAN, dancer and ELINOR NIMSCHIK, songstress.

At first their meetings were held at either the Northwestern Settlement or the Eckart Park Gym. However, in the future, Dr. Pierce and the organization have planned to have an annual combined business meeting and dance utilizing the Wells assembly hall and gym. The social activities of the alumni to date have included a party in lune and February for each graduating class and a dance and a picnic to initiate the new alumni into the organi- zation. However, they plan to have a social dance outside of school for the purpose of rais- ing money in order to present a worthy Wells student with a university scholarship.

NEAR ASHLAND OT Wells BRUMT 374' BoYDf-x DAIRY coMPANY 79 THE PROPHECY OF THE CLASS OF JUNE, 1938 , tContinued from Page 69l MATERA as world famous fire eater and sword swallower, and AGNES TORNOWSKI as the world's tallest woman .... A plane making a 'round the world tourist flight, is piloted by IAMES CREA and IOE DeNICOLO. A group of secre- taries are enjoying themselves on the plane, this being their vacation, and It .see HELEN DOROSKIN, MARY BECCI, IOSEPHINE CLEMENTE, JESSICA GOLCZEWSKI, ROSE DI VINCENZO, MARY MARCINEK, and FLORENCE KLEDZIK. HELEN KURTYKA, a stewardess, shows the girls the sights from the air .... In a corner ELAINE LYSIAK, the other stewardess, is making IOE BAGEL comfortable. Ioe is head produce buyer for the Ham and Sandwich Tea Co., owned by MICHAEL SMIDERSKI, He is traveling to Siberia for the new delicacy, hippopotamus eyes .... Another big day for aviation as LILLA WOICIECHOWSKA does her dare- devil, three-tail spin in the air while MITCHELL BRATKO jumps out during the second spin twith a parachute, of coursei. The new DANELLO Hospital has just opened its doors. TONY DANELLO, who is interested in weaving and crochet- ing, and never, never sees a basketball game, furnished the money for it by selling his original oriental rugs manufac- tured in America. WALTER GOLEMO, ANTHONY SARACCO, IOE KALAFUT, and EDWARD WHITE are the staff doctors, while HARRIETTE WISNIEWSKI, ROSE BOROWINSKI, OLGA TELIZYN, HELEN VESEVICH, SABINA KRUSINSKI, and MIRA GROCHOWSKI, are busy as nurses .... LAURA KASLUGA was the first to have her appendix removed .... The germ for that irresistible disease, Kipping, has just been dis- covered by DR. EDWARD G. SEIPP. He is now preparing, with the help of IOSEPI-IINE MICHNO, an antitoxin for Kip- ping. IAMES RYAN was just elected the Mayor of Chicago: he promises to keep babies in their carriages and hot dogs in the bun. . Strains of the Lohengrin are heard and LORRAINE WALZ says I do to her boss, while in another part of the city IEANNETTE KISS promises to love, honor and obey the boss' son. Believe it or not, the priest, FRANK PETRONE, presides at both ceremonies .... Another victory for Wells was put on the record as CATHARINE DUBAS and ANTHONY VO- LINO swam across the Atlantic Ocean. They intend to swim across the Pacific Ocean next week .... There has been a little trouble between STEVE MITTL, capitalist, and EDWARD WOZNIAK, labor leader, as to whether employes should be served hamburgers with mustard or catsup .... One, two, three, kick-one, two, three, kick-the dancers at the TOE LA CALAMITA Nighty Nite Club swing into action. The feet that kick belong to no other than STELLA CYGAN, GENE- VIEVE DE MURO, KATHLEEN MERCURIO, ROSE RASCIA, and EVELYN SCHMALL. This must be Wells night at Nighty Nite, for to the tune of ROMAN TROSZEWSKYS orchestra with STELLA BIENIA taking the vocal exercise and MATTHEW GALLIK, the swinger from college, at the drums. I see the women of Wells in the business world dancing with the bosses and their beaus. There is FRIEDA EICI-Il-IORST, ROSE BECKMAN, HELEN KAVATHAS, KATHLEEN KERASIOTIS, IOSEPHINE KAMINSKI, IOAN KOROLCZUK, HELEN KO- ZIELEC, ROSE KOZLIK, WANDA KOZUCH, IRENE MALLEK, VICTORIA MANOLIS, STEPHANIE MIERZWA, SYLVIA MIKOLAICZYK, IENNY NADYBAL, ELAINE OPLASKI, MARY POKORNY, OLGA WOSKOWICZ, GENEVIEVE ZARAZA, IOSEPI-IINE GABITZ, and SOPHIE MICHALSKI. Then during the floor show, with FRED MATTY as master of ceremonies, I see LORRAINE KIELBARA and CASIMIR IADLOWSKI in a daring ballroom dance .... Going through a modern school I see LORRAINE IURCZAKIEWICZ as the clerk who welcomes all to the school. It is the FLOYD SKAWSKI School of fine arts. The principal coming from his office turns out to be none other than SALVATORE GALLICHIO. In the library you find HERMINIA CUCI-IRA, who with her staff of librarians is busy keeping the students of l948 informed of what hap- pened in 1938. IOSEPHINE CRUDELL, the history teacher, sent them for that information. GENEVIEVE HENKLE and IOSEPHINE METRO try to keep the girls thin in the gym, and IEAN BOBINSKI is doing her best when she teaches them to shuffle, shuffle, skip, skip tand they call that dancingl. . . . Squeek, squeek, goes a fiddle as MILDRED LONGAVER tries to teach her little students how to play the fiddle. Mar- velous! Marvelous! says CHESTER KOCH and SYLVESTER GRADOWSKI to a basketball player as they tell him to throw himself into the game. tThey didn't expect the guy to try to jump through the basket, did they?I .... Yes, my dear girls, that is lesson two on how to get your man tany kind will dol and keep him there. My good heavens, it couldn't be-but, yes, it is PATRICIA PEIRONE .... In the stenography rooms I find IANET ROGALSKI and ADELIN E CZAPLICKI explaining the newest, most complicated of shorthand systems, put together by ANASTASIA SUTOR. WANDA PATSULA and HELEN MUZYKA as chemistry teachers are mixing positive and negative materials to make an equation .... Something new in secretaries as MILDRED MILLER paints pictures instead of writing letters. And they say the Indians were primitive. GERALDINE SZOPINSKI does a tap dance with each dictation and IEAN ZURAD graciously sings a song .... In the LEE COSTELLANO Dress Shoppe, FLORENCE ANIOLOWSKI, SYLVIA SCHREIMAN and MARY IASKIW drape soft, silky spinach leaves over mannequins HELEN DZIURDZIK, IEANNE ARZIG and BERNICE DZIALO, to create a new salad gown: the thing for the prom .... A dentist, FRANK SZYSZKULA, has just opened his office and MERRY GUSTYK is sitting at her desk ready to pull everybody's teeth .... IANET BIELA, the nurse, is taking care of MILDRED COZZO, who while traveling got a toothache in China, but wouldn't let the Chinese pull it out. Poor Milliel she will need the help of private nurse, TESSIE COLUMBUS, after Frank pulls that tooth .... EMILY HRANIOTIS, Speaker of the House of Representatives, is almost poisoned when DOMINIC GIAMBRI mistakes the doctor's signature for an ingredient .... LORETTA DZIERZANOWSKI is also recuperating under the care of EDNA IORDAN and LORETTA KURR. Miss DZIERZANOWSKI with the help of EDWIN CZUBAK, both chemists, tried to discover another element and landed in the hospital. tWells doesn't lack ambitionl. . . . A perfect housewife is ELINOR MALICKI. and out in Texas FRANCES PUDLOWSKI is breaking horses on her ranch, not realizing that rocket ships are in style, or that WALTER GRUCHALA made a trip to Mars in one .... IRENE MILOWSKI is a visitor at Frances' ranch for she wants to find a cowboy for a sweetheart .... Up in the mountains ANGELINE HUDOBOSKI, hill billy singer, is serenading her honey and telling him about her pappy and his apple tree. . . . A firm of engineers with CECIL HAIG, RAY IABLON- SKI, CHARLES KIESEL, ARTHUR MALANCUK, and LEO PIECHOTA have started an engineering corporation to make a bridge to Venus fthe planet-not the woman? .... Al- though there is peace and the army hasn't been in the head- lines for the past ten years, LE ROY BEHNKE is the leader of the U. S. Army Band, and with Roy at the head the band's goin' to town. NORMA BEHNKE is the new ambassador to France. Her Excellency owes this position to the French teachers at Wells, who taught her all she knows of the French language .... ROSALIE BURKE is still trying to select a gent, but she has been more successful as a clerk in the ELMER IAROCH Bacon and Egg store .... The book Meow Meow Says the Frip, written by STELLA MAKOWSKI, has been made into a play and will be presented on Broadway with GLADYS ZAIAC in the title role and FLORENCE KOZDRON as the leading lady in the chorus.

There is a bittle battle in Washington as IRENE WOZNIAK and IOSEPHINE ZUBA, candidates for the presidency ttaking it for granted both will winl, are liste ing their cabinets ..., GENEVIEVE WASIAK is the new Secretary of Interior, and she plans to do plenty of interior decorating, including the painting of navy ships baby pink. . . . HARRIETT ZAREMBA is the head of the G Men and Women Dept. and her best man is FRANK TOPS, who with the help of SOPHIE PALASZ disguised as a nurse, captured Pinto Pete the Pebble Player, notorious bandit, murderer and kidnapper, Pete kidnapped STANLEY PIELICHOWSKI when that gent snapped a bad picture of Pete. Frank flew down with Pete in NORA PlSH'S airplane. At the trial Pete will be defended by IOSEPH LOIEWSKL but the district attorney, FLORENCE KAMINSKI, with the help of ROSE PIAZZISI, will prove him guilty .... FRANCES MIRAGLIO, ANN PAN- ZARELLA and HELEN PETROVIC are heralded by the school children as another emancipator or liberator when they as social workers put over the ZV2 day school week .... The Sox and Cubs had a busy day as MIKE PASSERO of the Cubs and ELMER PALMER of the Sox made ten home runs ,... In the library a book has disappeared: librarians EVELYN SMIETANA and LILLIAN IACOBSON have employed the services of HENRY SEREDA, amateur detective and criminal lawyer, and his secretary, ANGELINE SAUTER. After search- ing day and night they found MERO KMET with the book ROSES, VIOLETS AND BUGS, by ANGELINA RAIMOND. Mero was sitting on an electric pole connecting switches and was at the most interesting point when he was so rudely in- terrupted. He threatens to bring the matter into court with TOHN CASSELA as his lawyer. After all these years EDWARD BARTOSZEK, who holds the position of auditor in HENRY HOINACKTS Fish Store, and DOMINIC SCACCI, C. P. A., have finally decided to learn to dance. They are taking lessons at LOTTIE KUCAL'S School of Dancing .... MILDRED MRAVEC is a clinging vine and FRANK PALARZ, who rode a tricycle to high school every day, is now champion. But don't get me wrong, he's the world champion cyclist ..,. ANNA STINA SEAHOLM has just finished some advertising copy for GERTRUDE PODRAZA'S Gabby Mouth Wash. ROSE CORRIERO and ANNE STOLORENA, secretaries, swear they will not be mis- led by the advertisement, but will use ANGELA IANOW- SKI'S Teeths and Tooths Tooth Paste .... HELEN PRES- VELOS, traveling in JOSEPH IANKOWSKTS plane, is dic- tating the last chapter of her book, Adventures on a Horse, to her secretary, HELEN POSADZY. Her typist, IRENE ADAMIK, is pacing the p1ane's cabin up and down hoping for an opportunity to use her parachute. And last, but not least, I see the future for HELEN IASKULA. Since graduation she hadn't anyone to bet with: Hoe Loiewski was gone with the wind. Therefore, Helen invented the Betwityurself ma- chine. But alack and alas! nobody would buy it, Helen's work is in vain. The needle stops. It is once again 1938 and you the grad- uates are wondering if fortunes do come true. LORETTA DEMBSKI.
