Members of other classes of West Haven High School fought to bring us this peace, it is our duty to preserve it and make it permaneut. And we can do thisg we are America's youth. With this thought foremost in the minds of all of us, we arrive at Tl-IE CROSSROADS, faces forward, ready to call on all our knowledge and skill to meet this challenge. We hesitate for a moment, perhaps, frightened a bit, but when we think of our obliga- tions, we are ready to resume our journey toward the goal. Some of us will take the road leading to the armed forces while others will take one leading to business or to higher education, but no matter which we take, we will all be striving toward the same purpose.

Mr. Cicala and Mr. Gabriel were among the many speakers who entertained the club members. Each meeting was followed by refreshments and an entertaining program. The most important activity of the club this year was the gay and colorful program they presented to celebrate Pan-American Day. Lorraine Smith was chairman of the committee which presented the program. Among the seniors who entertained were Irene Orr, who sang Jealousy and Jeanette Ludemann, who played many selections on the piano. Miss Petrillo, as in former years, did a great deal toward making the program successful. A number of invited guests attended this meeting. A picnic was planned to climax the Spanish Club's year. - Officers - President ...... .... . . Jean Richetelli Vice-President . . . . . . jackson King Secretary ...... ....

These initials were used in the days of the Roman Republic to show the alliance between the governing body and the gove1'ned. The club had a different password for each monthly meeting, usually the principal parts of some difficult verb. A janitor stood at the door, and each prospective attendant at the meeting was required to recite the password before entering. The club also had a club song, Gaudcauzus Igitur, and its motto was t'ar,lJv u'it'lH, or Enjoy the present moment. Members were enrolled under mythological or Roman historical names. Some of these names were Ceres, Vulcan, Juno,-Mercury, Scipio, and Catiline. .Xt club meetings the members enjoyed Latin crossword puzzles, Latin songs and three-part rounds, figuring out Latin anagrams, and other games connected in some way with Latin. At the time of elections it was necessary to take the auspices to see if they were favorable for proceeding with the elections. In the manner of the ancients an nlxllglllm examined the sky for a favorable sign. This was found, so the elections were held.

The proceeds from this year's sale of trinket boxes, silver bracelets, painted plaques, and other novelties were used to purchase graduation gifts for out- standing senior art pupils.

The annual Community Chest Drive, held in November, was under the direction of Miss Navaretta who was ably assisted by a willing corps of boys and girls. One outstanding feature of this Drive was an assembly at which Miss Helen McCartney, a radio entertainer, told of her U. S. U. experiences in North Africa and in Europe. Daily collections were taken in home rooms and the re- sults posted in the lobby. The linal score showed the very creditable total of 552154. In March came the Red Cross Drive.. Miss Hancock directed the student committees in this important and worthy activity. The usual home-room collec- tions were supplemented by fmes for gum-chewing and other minor misdemean- ors, these lines being paid promptly and cheerfully by the offenders. Again the score board in the lobby was watched closely and it was a proud day for us when we found that we had once more oversubscribed our quota. Inspired by Mr. Haley, a group of interested school citizens in the fall of 1045 organized a chapter of the junior Red Cross. This was under the direction of Miss Smith but, due to her illness, its activities were supervised by Mr. Haley and various faculty members. In true XVest Haven spirit. the local theaters permitted the junior Red Cross members to take up collections which materially augmented the Red Cross contributions of the town.

A proof of this is the annual decoration of the Christmas tree in the lobby. J The high spots of the year were the Hallowc-:'en masquerade, the Pathiinders- Trajicom dance in the gymnasium, the annual spring luncheon in the cafeteria, and the Mother and Daughter Tea. Iii addition to these, the club's activities included making swabs for the New Haven Hospital, hiking,gand bowling. President ...... Vice-President . . . Secretary ......

This club enjoyed a hfiylll and Swim program through which the entire group went to the YH where they took part in gymnastic activities such as water- polo and basketball. They also had an intramural softball team. Social events included dances every Friday night at the Y. XV. C. .-X. Other events enjoyed by this group were a state conference at Sterling llall, and the Yale-llrown and Yale-Holy Cross football games. The highlight of the year came when representatives of the Hi-Y took over the state government at lrlartford for a day. During this time one of the representatives brought up in the legislature a bill which passed both houses and became a law. This bill was for compulsory automobile insurance for the state of Connecticut. -- Uji'it'1'l'.x' - 1'r'v.vidt'J1f ..... , . .john lX'lcl'artland I'ire-l'1'e.vir1't'11f . . . .

The Thanksgiving party was an enjoyable one. The Christmas assembly consisted of a play, entitled Pink Roses for Christmas, and Christmas carols sung in for- eign languages. The joint Pathfinder-Trajicom dance in the gym was a success. At a Gay Nineties party Life With Fodder, a short play, was presented. The club attended several plays at the Shubert Theater.

The team conquered Greenwich, Fairheld, Commercial, and Crosbyg was de- feated by Middletown, llamden, and Hillhouseg and tied Hartford llulkeley. Led by Co-Captains Lou Peccerillo and Mike Anastasio, the big boys in Blue battled every play in every game to bring home victory. The Blue Devils opened their season at Donovan Field with ia scoreless half game, 0-0 deadlock with highly touted Hartford llulkeley High. Until rain forced play to be called, brilliant Frank VVinlield was the thorn in Bulkeley's side. Following the deadlock, the VVesties traveled to Greenwich and came home with a thrilling 20-19 win over the Redmen of Greenwich High. The Devils led l3-0 at the half by virtue of Wintield's touchdown thrusts of 72 and I3 yards. Then the Redmen retaliated and scored three touchdowns to take the lead, but the Vlfesties, not to be outdone, won the game with fifty seconds left to play, when a desperate pass play from C0-Captain Lou Peccerillo to Winfield was good for 3-l yards, a touchdown, and the win. The Devils went to Fairfield and made it two straight, 7-0, as Winfield gal- loped 98 yards for the only score. lt was a costly victory, however, as Co-Captain l,ou Peccerillo was lost to the team for the season. A Fairfield thrust aggravated an injury that Lou had received in a pre-season scrimmage. Middletown came to West Haven and finally beat the Westies l9-13 after a host of NVesties were injured in the fray. Franny Camp and Co-Captain Mike Anastasio scored in this ball game. The Shoremen then went to Yale Freshman Field to beat Commercial High 6-0. A brother-act pass, John to Mike Anastasio, brilliantly produced the winning tallies, after the play was set up by Bill Engels, who intercepted a Typo pass on their 45 and carried it to the 7. Page eighty-one I . .-.1 1ih1-K 'THE CROSSROADS - They then went to Hamden, only to come home on the short end of a 12-7 score. The Westies led in the first half on Franny Camp's tally. Winfield was in- jured at the beginning of the second half and Hamden came through with two scores to win. ' Crosby came to West Haven and went away with a 6-0 defeat given to them by the injury-riddled Westies. Three converted backs, formerly linemen, Ed Irons, Punch Humphrey, and Franny Camp, led the XVestie attack. Camp carried the brunt, but lrons got the score. And then it happened! The Devils went into the Bowl on an even basis with the arch-rival Hillhouse, but came out with a 27-0 defeat. Breaks and injuries ruined the handicapped Devils, although it was a 7-0 game for three periods. The linemen to be remembered for the great work they did up front this season were Pete Klynduck, joe Onett, Punch Humphrey, Mike O'Bymachow, jerry jermain, Pat Daniels, Al Ielpi, and of course, Co-Captain Mike Anastasio. Our spectacular blockers, runners, kickers, and passers were Co-Captain Lou Peccerillo, Frank Winf1eld, Bill Engels, John Carmada, John Anastasio, and Ed Irons.

The team was headed by Co-captains Frank Camp and Frank Winfield. High scorers were Camp, NVinfield, and the Anastasio brothers-Mike and john. The season was climaxed by the Nvest Haveners' part in the state tourna- ment at the Arena in New Haven. Our team defeated Norwalk in the first round, and was defeated in turn by a strong Bristol team in the second game played. -- Scores - West Haven ....... .... S t. Mary's West Haven . . . ....

Until Mr. Bennett, the faculty coach, was discharged from the Navy, the team was fortu- nate to have the guidance of Mr. Guetens. The team played a hard schedule of thirteen games. The trip to XVest Point was made much more enjoyable hy the fruits of victory from the l'lebes. ln the First minutes of the game Ilill Hunting, who later suffered an injury, raced down the ice to sink the only goal of the game Captain john Guetens played excellent hockey throughout the season. His conduct on the ice won him the Hugh Young Trophy for good sportsmanship. This was the second time that a NVestie player had received this honor. Next year's team will have veterans Crouse, Housel, Nielsen, and Unger. - Seniors 4 William Hunting l Fred Kaiser john Guetens, Captain Cyrus Merritt - Scores -- West Haven .. ....

Opening with four straight wins, two of them over district teams, they proved it was to be another good season. There was a mixture of veterans and new material which blended together smoothly. Those returned from previous years, such as Lou Peccerillo, Ray Vincent, and Hill Engels, together with such newcomers as Eddie Irons, Gene Spaziani, and Frank Winfield, fired by the pitching of George Housel, made a formidable combine. - Senior Members - William Engels Robert Greenwood Alfred Ielpi Louis Peccerillo Raymond Vincent Frank VVinf1eld Delwin VVebster, Manager - Scores - West Haven 5 .... . llranford West Haven 9 .... ..

Page ninety-tive T H E C R o s s R o A D s CLASS PROPHECY, 1946 Paging Mr. Bigwig! Paging Mr. Bigwig! That voice! 'flt sounded fa- miliar, didn't it, Joyce F We both turned around and a smile of recognition crossed our lips for our singing messenger was none other than Irene Orr. Hear- ing Mr. Bigwig's name reminded Joyce and me of our duties for the day. Just what are our duties, Joyce ? Well, First Selectman Bernard Chahoski has assigned to us the job of showing Mr. Bigwig the old home town to see if we can't get him to invest some money in our community. And when is he expected in Pm not quite sure what time his train is due to arrive in New Haven. Isn't that Ray Vincent at the ticket window? Let's go ask himf' Ray informed us that the train would be on time and would pull in at exactly l0:lO. We then sat down to wait. People were hurrying and jostling along their way when all of a sudden I nudged Joyce and said, Isn't that porter Bill Bradley? And look! that's Katherine Keenan's luggage he's carrying. Did you know that she's a traveling saleswoman for Dead Pan Make-Up ?' Just then Ray sent Bubbles Greenwood over to us with the message that the train was pulling in and we waited impatiently for his nibs to arrive. Although we were tensely awaiting his arrival we took time out to gaze at the celebrities hurrying to their waiting cabs. Among them we spotted Holly Bacon, Mary Lou Benevento, Lou Bolland, and Marg Carlson, all members of the danc- ing chorus of Parasol, Suddenly we noticed the two stars of the show, George Coxeter and Mary Lou Clark, who were trying to slip unobtrusively through the crowd. We were startled to hear a booming voice say, Are you the young ladies who are to be my guides for the day? I'm Mr. Bigwig, and you- ? 'Tm Frances De Crosta, and this is Joyce Conlanf' After receiving a cool acknowledgment from him, we escorted him through the station to our cab which was driven by none other than Janet Ross. We sig- nalled Janet to drive slowly through West Haven as we wanted to point out to Mr. Bigwig some places of interest. We decided to smooth things over as soon as possible by showing him one of the beautiful old buildings of West Haven- the town library. Page ninety-eight ------ -V T H E C R o s s R o A D s As we entered the front door we noticed that the Children's Story Hour had just begun. jackie Breen was surrounded by a swarm of youngsters, who listened expectantly to the beloved Crumb's Fairy Tales. Suddenly we were startled by the words, Either stay put and keep quiet, or get up and get out! VVe turned quickly, and to our wonderment we saw Marcy Grande retreating to her stool behind the huge desk after speaking sharply to the upper classmen, now meek and quiet. We finally managed to tear Mr. Bigwig away from the fairy tales and continued our tour of the town. As we journeyed down Campbell Avenue we passed our local theater, the Rivoli, and noticed the names on the marquee. Mike, 'the lover,' Anastasio and Pauline, 'the lookf Vincent starred in Frank Manwaring's new production Robacco Toad ! ! Oh, look, Allene Lago has finally achieved her life's ambition to be connected with the theater. Isn't that she selling tickets at the window? Joyce signalled me that perhaps our guest would enjoy some lunch. We de- cided to stop at Stan's for a snack, as we intended to have dinner at Wilcox's, now owned by Mike O'Bymachow. In fact, Mike's Paradise is the new nick- name given to Savin Rock. Grouped as usual around Stan's was the same old gang who used to assemble there in '46. We noticed Butch Biondi, still a private in Uncle Sam's regular armyg Dickie Blakeslee, proprietor of a chain of night clubsg Happy Camarda and Ray D'Amato, managers of the street cleaners' department of West Haven, joe Dillon, chief executive of Dillon's Delectable Dollies, the foremost modeling agency in West Haveng and Sonny Farren, the high-pressure salesman for the new car on the market called Farren's Famous Fantasy. XVe walked into Stan's and were surprised to see Virginia Clark jerking sodas for the high-school crowd. We finally managed to snare a booth and waited impatiently for the waitress to come and take our orders. To our astonishment our waitress was Dot Sutton. We also noticed Marino Guerra and john Marini sailing by with dishes stacked high on each arm. After taking our order, Dot lingered by our booth giving us a little informaton about some of our former classmates. She began by telling us that Lorraine johnson, Lorraine Gates, Phyllis Silver, Phyllis Hahn, and Linnea Arvidson were modeling for Feinson's Fashion Follies, stiff competition to Dillon's Delectable Dollies. Bill Engels had just been appoint- ed manager of all the girls when they went out as a group. She went on to say Gi j Mansfield was now practicing dentistry in the same building where jean Riche- telli and Spike Valenti were holding their ballet classes. Dot went on to say, Did you know that we are being offered a bit of stiff competition from Joe's Ice Cream Parlor next door to the Fire House ? Ginny Arnold and Peggy Holt are waiting on the customers. Maybe that's why you'll always see jack Gaffney, Dick Verdyck and Dick Allemann over there drinking, as usual, their plain cokes. , Page ninety-nine K IIIIIHIIIIIIK T H E C O S S R 0 A D S llllnllnm VVhen our order arrived, Dot turned regretfully away to wait on Tina Guerra, Dot Weiler, and Helen Mustakos, all nurses at the Cat and Dog Hospital. llelen walked over to our table and told us some of the latest news about the hospital. The first thing we learned was that Louise Vaccaro had been appointed Superintendent of Nurses and that Nat Jendrewski and Pat Gill had finally become diagnosticians for the cats and dogs. With a little more persuading we finally learned that Rudi Reineke, because of his love of hospitals, was now the head orderly in the kitchen, and known all over the hospital f01' his mild and soothing manner. Walking to our cab we were hailed by Pat Fisher and Bill Bunting, co- partners of the Creamy Kemtone Company. When Mr. Bigwig waved to them he let go of his dignified derby and it went sailing clear across Campbell Avenue to the Green. I welcomed a rest so I pursued the hat half way across the Green. I hadn't gone far when I heard a voice murmur, I say, did you lose something ? l looked up into the face of johnny Barnes and answered respectfully, after noting his costume was that of the high minister of the Episcopal Church. Why, yes, a derby. He recognized me and immediately started talking of the grand old days when we had been in school. Johnny, pardon me, Mr. Barnes, told me that I had just missed seeing Franny Camp, Lenny Densmore, and Punch Humphrey. Franny is now an Admiral in the Navy and Punch and Lenny are both Lieutenants in the Marines. They certainly have gone far, haven't they, I said. I recovered Mr. Bigwig's derby, and returned to my duties as guide. As we sat in the cab debating where to go next, Mr. Bigwig asked, How about taking me to that celebrated playground-Savin Rock ? We readily agreed and before you could say Jeanne Robinson we had arrived. The first sound that greeted our ears was the loud, booming voice of Harry Farrell shouting, Get your tickets here for the wonder show of the world! He seemed to be trying to block out poor Bobby Samoden doing the same job across the street and even the familiar tunes of the merry-go-round. VVithout realizing it we followed the strains of the music and found ourselves in the huge arcade called Gagliardi's Carousel. Because we had a previous appointment at the high school we decided to hurry Mr. Bigwig through the Amusement Palisades, not even stopping to talk to jigger Iermain, now keeper of the greens of the huge baseball diamond in the center of the White City. In our haste we ignored all traffic rules and suddenly we were stopped by Policeman Beans jacques saying, What do you think this is, the Merritt Parkway ? Our cabby pulled up to the curb but fast. Don't you know the speed limit is. .? Say, what are you two doing here F We explained our plight and behind Mr. Bigwig's back we tried with gestures to make him under- stand that this was the Mr. Bigwig, our prospective benefactor. Beans finally caught on and trying to make a joke out of the situation said, This brings me back to the days in '46 and to the wild rush to the cafeteria when the B-Recess bell had rung. The girls certainly weren't the last ones in lineeither! just then Sophie Chernovetz, Helen Wilenski, and Helene DePalma ran up to the car, each with a plate of Ferrara's Southern Fried Chicken. Helene exclaimed, Page one hundred T 1-1 E c R o s s R o A D s I saw it first so let me tell l We were walking towards jean's stand when all of a sudden we noticed a beautiful huge yacht pulling into Draper's Bay, and to top it all off there's a handsome young skipper aboard ! 1 wonder who he is ! As she spoke these words we saw her eyes widen and following her gaze we spotted Al Pfister, in the full dress of a skipper, striding toward our car. He exchanged greetings, not realizing the commotion he had caused. Although anxious to reach the school and keep our appointment with Super- intendent Albert Dudley and Principal Daniel Scavone, we remembered our recent escapade and obeyed the town's traffic rules. VVe finally reached the school and were cordially greeted by Al and Danny. After talking a bit in Mr. Dudley's private office, Mr. Bigwig said, May I have the pleasure of touring the build- ing ? Al's face lit up as this was his favorite pastime. As we wandered through the halls, we took this opportunity to stop and talk to a few teachers who were members of the faculty. We introduced Mr. Bigwig to Miss Eileen Wilke, dean of the girls, Miss Mildred Fritz, our energetic gym teacherg Phil Zimmerman, musical director, Frank Winfield, Bob Purvis, and Rodney Snedeker, custodians, and Thomas I. Hine, Head of the West Haven High School's Disciplinary Board. On the whole, M1'. Bigwig seemed very pleased with the school system. Let's walk to the Town Hall Joyce suggested, it's not far l We did so want him to meet our first Selectman, so we walked rapidly. Entering the cool building we went quickly to Bernie's office where we were greeted by his secretary, Dorothy Prehn. Mr. Bigwig remarked, I'd like to see the record of some outstanding year in the history of West Haven High School. Naturally Bernie took him to the file containing the will of the class of '46. After reading the will thoughtfully, Mr. Bigwig remarked with a laugh. l've had a hard time concealing the fact that I, too, was a member of the class of '-46. I know I've changed in appearance, perhaps a bit heavier, but I used to be very good friends with all our classmates we have met during today's tour. Touring the town today has brought to my memoryall the happy days and funny experiences which occurred during our four years of high school. I feel rather slighted that you haven't recognized me despite the fact that I was presi- dent in '46. Why Bob Beers, how you've changed ! we both exclaimed. VVhy didn't you let us know! lt certainly has been grand seeing you again. And so, like a fairy tale, our story closes with a happy ending, for both 'loyce and I were certain that Bob wouldn't hesitate to invest his huge capital in our wonderful little town-VVest Haven. jovcli CONLAN FRANCES DECROSTA Page one hundred one QZWQQQEEQ x 4 f' F? ff M M m um.

After Registrar of Voters Snavely had assigned us our districts, we wandered bewilderedly through the building in search of our home rooms. Thus our four-year term in our town began. Law and order were enforced when that husky, vigilant police force, the Traffic Squad, appeared. NVeren't they the proud ones though! We had just about become accustomed to high school life when we reached the end of our first ranking period, and the honor roll was released. Do you remember those days long ago when approximately half the class was on? Following a rousing rally in which the vivacious cheer leaders tried to teach us the school songs and cheers, we streamed to the 'Yale Bowl for that annual clash with Hillhouse. Wasn't a 20-7 victory over Hillhouse a grand way to start off our term? Ever since September we had been hearing those awful reports which the Sophomores were giving about the T.l3. tests. Finally the day arrived, and as we trudged down to the apartment, we tried desperately to camouflage our knocking knees and appear brave. We were greeted by a long, sharp needle in the hands of the fearful-looking health officer. After smelling salts had been ad- ministered we all recovered enough to return to our classes. It wasn't as bad as we had expected, but we'd never tell that to a Freshman! - Entering high school during a war year did have its advantages in our opinion. Shorter working hours during january and February were a welcome piece of legislation. These new hours, from 12:00 to 3:30, were due to the fuel shortage. That winter brought many shortages. Among the best remembered was that of paper, even though it didn't come to the point where teachers eliminated written homework. During .March ten Chinese aviation cadets who were studying at Yale paid us a visit. Classes were suspended while we crowded into the halls to hear them speak. One of the rather short cadets expressed extreme surprise at the great height of Rudi Reineke. As usual june Comes Around Every Year. This marked the completion of one year of our term. Because of the dreaded polio epidemic, our summer recess was extended two weeks longer than usual. Page one hundred three TH 13 C R o s s R o A D s What a comedown it was to the former Freshman Trahic Squad! Instead of frowning down at the escapades of the common citizens, they now had to look meekly up at those huge Senior Traffic Officers. Victory Corps classes offered the voters of our town a variety of courses on Wednesday and Thursday-typing, nutrition, pre-Hight aviation, radio code, and even boys' cooking classes. Didn't those boys look cute in their big aprons, whipping up a light-as-a-feather angel cake! All during the year we dreamed of the day when our higher political posi- tions would give us the right to those front-row-center seats in the auditorium. VVhile dreaming our dreams, we trudged up the stairs to the balcony to enjoy the outstanding assemblies. The Christmas assembly, directed by Miss Flannigan and Miss Doherty, pictured a service man's lonely Christmas far away from home. The Folk Music assembly, directed by Miss Hill, was a pageant of the music and dances of foreign countries. The Irish jig, Italian Tarantella, and Scottish Highland Fling, complete with kilts, were only a few of the lively dances. An elaborate Pan-American assembly was produced by the Spanish Club and Miss Petrillo in the spring. It was complete with original, lighting, and cos- tumes. At the Memorial Day assembly we were the proud recipients of the Min- ute Man Flag for having over 90W of the student body purchasing stamps and bonds regularly. After the basketball season, town meetings were held in the gym on Friday nights. The business of these meetings was l'Open House. Various problems were taken up by the citizens-dancing, ping pong, checkers, monopoly, and even pinochle. In April the biennial State Latin Contest was held at Choate School in Wal- lingford. George Coxeter and Harry Farrell, members of the Board of Educa- tion, represented our town. The great deal of excitement and fussing going on all spring were sure signs of something big coming up. That's right-the Revue! We, the people, found that the songs, dances, comedy acts, and instrumental solos provided an outlet for our talents. Virginia Joy Clark, Joyce Conlan, Gordon Davey, Mildred Fritz, Margarite Horan, Edward Lutz, Robert Reid, and Lorraine Smith, ably repre- sented the class of 1946. June is Dusting out All Over. The duties of public office having lessened, we devoted ourselves to ten weeks of working, victory gardening, and having a good time. With the arrival of September, business pressing, we were called back to that long committee meeting to solve the problem of our education. Oh, my aching back, was a favorite and meaningful expression heard wherever girls were gathered. The usual try-outs for cheer leaders were the Page o11e hundred four Illlllllll T H E C 5 S R O A D S llllllll cause of all the aches and pains, and the girls were limping up and down stairs to classes like old ladies with rheumatism. When all was said and done Joyce Conlan, Jean Richetelli, and Virginia Valenti emerged as the junior quarter of the cheer leading squad. Late autumn brought much campaigning as election time was here. When the final ballots were cast, First Selectman Bernard Chahoski, Second Selectman Albert Pfister, Town Clerk Jean Richetelli, and Town Treasurer Dorothy Prehn were inaugurated to office. What a job Dot had trying to extract our junior dues from us. There was a great deal of confusion in the halls soon after Christmas vaca- tion. Bricks were torn out of the walls, planks were swished around by the town construction crew, much hammering was heard, and presto-a new dumb waiter was born. Mr. Belcher and Mel Wagner made the test Hight from the basement to the cafeteria. I wonder how many of the citizens found refuge here during cut classes? In the interclass basketballiand volleyball tournaments the junior girls came out victorious. It didn't take the girls long to sew their hard-won letters on their sweaters. Around this time the pictures of the new sports captains appeared in the Rostrum: Football, Michael Anastasio and Lou Peccerillog Soccer, Ray Vincent 3 Basketball, Francis Camp and Frank NVinfieldg Hockey, John Guetensg Swim- ming, William Bunting and Harry Farrell. The usual headaches and heartbreaks connected with the job of editing the Rostrum fell into the hands of Virginia Joy Clark in April when she was elected to the position of editor-in-chief. Allene Lago was chosen assistant editor, and the business department was entrusted to the guiding hand of Harry Young. The fact that girls would again be at the helm in publishing the school paper indicated that the fairer sex were in the majority. Up to this year there had been an even number of boy and girl editors. For the first time the five high schools of greater New Haven presented a spring choral festival at VVoolsey Hall. Jeanette Ludemann was the accompanist. Shortly afterwards the chorus broadcast the same program over WNHC. For most it was the first time before a mike and many a hand trembled and knee knocked before the evening was over. The worst shock of the year occurred when it was announced that this year we would have exams. For everyone! These were the blackest days in our high school careers as we spent every spare moment cramming for the zero hour. The suspense was awful but then when they were all over there were still the marks to worry about. Finally came that long-awaited event-the Junior Prom. Co-Chairmen Bob Beers and Joyce Conlan and their committee-Michael Anastasio, Gordon Davey, Louis Peccerillo, Rudi Reineke, Patricia Gill, Janet Ross, and Jane NVarner Page one hundred Five mlllmlllu T H E C R O S S R O A D S mvullxlm planned a memorable night highlighted by the crowning of Jean Richetelli as Daisy Queen. Jean was escorted to the throne by attendants Jacqueline Breen, Joyce Conlan, Frances DeCrosta, and Dorothy Prehn. The gym was decorated with original murals and the couples danced from 8:45 to 11:45 to the music of Sonny Berman with Dee Jordan, vocalist. As a special added attraction Dick Allemann was host at the door, announcing over the mike the arrival of each couple. Albert Pfister and Virginia Joy Clark left school a week early in June to attend Nutmeg Boys' State and the first Laurel Girls' State as representatives of our town. Al spent the week at the University of Connecticut and Virginia at Willimantic State Teachers College, all at the expense of the American Legion and their VVomen's Auxiliary. Both fared well against delegates from all over the state as Al was elected Attorney General of Boys' State and Virginia was elected to the position of senator and assistant editor of the Girls' State Journal. Soon, everyone began humming In the Good Old Summertime as they dreamed of ways to spend the summer vacation. If they could have looked ahead a few weeks it would have been an even more joyous last day at school because August 14th brought to a close the war that had so greatly affected our lives during our first three years in high school. September called us back to fulhll the final year of our term. First on the agenda was the election of our class officers. The statesmen entrusted with our guidance for the year were Bob Beers, Bernard Chahoski, Jean Richetelli, and Dot Prehn. Seven new senior girls were added to the three members of our class already giving forth their vim, vigor, and vitality in leading the cheers. The new leaders were: Caroline Brockett, Gloria Gambino, Mary Hanlon, Jeanne Robinson, Janet Ross, Jane Warner, and Eileen Wilke. After over a week of marching in the gym and around the block, November 4th brought rain to spoil the Bill Soderman Day parade. Bill, a West Haven graduate in 1931, is the only person from our town ever to receive the Congres- sional Medal of Honor. Despite the disagreeable weather many loyal and sturdy students marched anyway. We haven't mentioned the Thanksgiving game for several years. If you think hard, you'll remember why. During the year we were happy to welcome back to our class two veterans -Albert Pfister and Carl Krebs, both from the Merchant Marine. As the armed forces were gradually demobilized, eight former members of the faculty returned. From the Navy came Mr. Bennett, Mr. Chase, Mr. Crowe, and Mr. Graham, and from the Army, Mr. Cicala, Mr. Gabriel, Mr. Thompson, and Mr. Topp. Page one hundred six lllllllllnf T H E C R O S S R O A D S lnllllllllu Just before Christmas Eileen Wilke was chosen to represent our school in the Good Citizenship Contest sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revo- lution. She was selected for her dependability, service, leadership, and patriotism. Highlighting the Christmas assembly was the Trajicom play, Pink Roses for Christmas. Allene Lago and Rodney Snedeker played a genteel, married couple. Bill Bunting and Frannie DeCrosta were their teen-age children, and Mary Lou Clark portrayed the scatter-brained cook. The Constitution in Our Everyday Life was the topic for the oratorical contest sponsored by the American Legion. Allene Lago won first prize and Mer- ritt Taylor, second. Allene went on to win second place in the county pre- Iiminaries. There were some startling changes made in school in March when the new seven-period schedule was announced. The shock to the sleepyheads when they discovered they had to be in school ten minutes earlier was terrific. The winter sports teams made a good showing. The basketball team qualified for the CIAC tournament, only to lose their second game in the play-downs. The hockey team won second place in the district league. Our hockey captain, Jack Guetens, was awarded the Hugh Young Jr. hockey trophy for sportsmanship in district league competition. - April Showers was the theme for the Senior Prom held on April 27th. Raindrops and colorful umbrellas greatly altered the appearance of our gym. Sonny Berman's orchestra provided the music for hundreds of dancing feet. The committee that planned the prom was headed by Joyce Conlan and Mike Anastasio, co-chairmen. The.other members were: Pat Fischer, Kathryn Keenan Eileen VVilke, Virginia Valenti, Bill Bunting, Michael O'Bymachow, Al Pfister and Rudi Reineke. I v The cast of junior Miss presented a one-night performance on May l7th The dramatic aspirants from the senior class were: Richard Allemann, Bill Bunt- ing, Raymond D'Amato, Marcelline Grande, Lorraine Johnson, George Mans- field, and Pauline Vincent. The last few weeks flew by with the exams, the Junior Prom, Class Night and finally Graduation. v Arriving at the Cross Roads we have Till the End of Time to remember the four years we spent in West Haven High. VIRGINIA joy CLARK JEANETTE N. LUDEMANN Page one hundred seven T H E C R o s s R o A D s AMERICAN ENGLISH If you should ask an American what language he speaks, he would, of course, reply, English, This answer seems neither strange nor unusual to us who have been taught in the home and school to speak a language we call English. Actually, however, this idea is incorrect. We speak American. Although our language may be similar to English, it is different in many ways.. An Englishman and an American talking together are conscious at once that each speaks a quite different tongue. Ah, I see that you wish to attribute this differ- ence to pronunciation. It is true that part of the difiiculty is due to different modes of pronunciation, but the larger and more important part lies in the vocabulary difference and the expressions peculiar to each tongue. The lirst English settlers found in this country many strange animals and plants for which their language had no names. They promptly settled the problem by adopting Indian names or inventing their own. Some common examples of these lirst American words are chipmunk, moccasin, canoe, succotash, raccoon, and skunk. Many words of like origin, which are not familiar to the general public, still exist in the speech of the inhabitants of some New England sea- coast towns. Of course, the settlers took words from the languages of other immigrants. They also devised a characteristically American practice--that of combining two or more words to form a new one. NVords like snowshoe, pop- corn, hired-girl, and selectman are composed of common English words, but there is something in them that typifies the ambition and pioneer spirit of the settlers. Then too, words and expressions considered out of date in the mother country continued to be used in America. Some of these, such as bow-window, I guess, and fall Cautumnj, have been taken back into English usage by the force of American example. Also, many important words in daily use began to show different meanings in the two lands. What an Englishman called a shop was called a store by Americans as early as 1770. Other differences in meaning are the American cracker for the English biscuit and the English fowl-run for the American chicken yard. An American would line up to buy candy while an Englishman would queue up to buy sweets, an Englishman would take a lift to the eighth Hoor of a building while an American takes an elevatorg an Amer- ican might take a trolley car to the drugstore while an Englishman would take a tram car to the chemist's. Thus, the beginning of the American language was easy and natural, and its development, rapid. I-Iowever, it was not until the first move westward that the language began to show the lively spirit, vigor, and forcefulness which characterize it today. Although the inHuence of the great open spaces was not all beneficial, it did add many pungent and picturesque words which depicted the humor of the Page one hundred eight THE CROSSROADS - ---- western pioneers. These expressions were considered extremely uncouth and were immediately labeled slang by the cultured Easterners. Upon this, many re- forms arose to bring America into closer accord with the English language. llut the spirit of the people scorned these foolish and unsuccessful attempts to substitute English terms and pronunciation for the American. VVe must admit that a number of words which originated at that time, were quite rough and boorish. Some of the milder ones were boot-legger, the political steam-roller, and the group called the Mugwumps. Yet there were many like self-made-man, sewing circle, side show, silent partner, and spring fever which were certainly far more original than any conservative English. Although there have been many formidable attempts to reform the Amer- ican language, they have received their sole support from Anglo-maniacs. Since then, the language has bounded swiftly forward, picking up words along the way. Newspaper headlines, by shortening some long words, have given us new ones like photo, gas, and ad. Kodak and Coca-cola are examples of world famous trademarks which have been added to our vocabulary. As might be expected, many new words and expressions were produced by the War. No one can predict which words and expressions were produced by the war. No one can predict which of these will survive the test of time. But some of the World War Il phrases, such as blackout, bottleneck, convoy, G. I. Joe, jeep, ersatz, and walkie- talkie, seem to be here to stay. It is quite evident that such an ever-growing, pro- gressive language is adapted to a people who are renowned for their ingenuity and inventiveness. It was really one of the products of such inventiveness, the movie, that made the English people conscious of the vividness and liveliness of our tongue. The movie had such an influence on the speech of the people that the so-called educated English urged that American films no longer be shown there. Never- theless, Americanisms even crept into the language of the upper class. This has led many experts to believe that in the future English will become a dialect of American just as American was once an English dialect. Our soldiers sta- tioned in England during the war also exerted a definite influence on the speech of the people. Yet, the many language differences have not been overcome in any sense of the word. This fact is clearly shown by a pamphlet issued by the English government to aid the English people in understanding the American soldier. A sentence in it reads, Does he speak English? Not at all. It may be called English but it is American. The truth of this statement is well known to every thinking American. Al- though some of us would like a closer linguistic relationship with England, no one of us would surrender our spirited and effective tongue with its wealth of apt words and phrases to the more conservative and stolid English. For the American language is ours, it was made by our forefathers and reflects the originality and individuality of our people. Doaornv K.
