f . WW 2 T ' .,mf :- . ' ' rs ; . « irsm m ®]!imm WOODROW WILSON HIGH SCHOOL YOUNGSTOWN, CHIO VOLUME 5 To the Wilson boys in service who gave their all — and to those who are offering their all, we dedicate this Annual of 1943. ( neeti t to Ti aacOiacu ' ZOti cK Studentd These are stirring times in which we live. The even flow of a settled and ordered life has been upset, our plans disrupted and our minds bewildered. We see the things that we have heretofore taken for granted —the blessings of liberty of speech, liberty of worship, and the freedom to choose our own way in the pursuit of happiness, take on a new meaning. They are threatened and even life, itself, is not so valuable as they. We Americans are finding ourselves again. We are meeting the challenge to our free institutions, on home and battle front. There are tasks to do and sacrifices to make for all of us. Instead of shrinking from the demands of this hour, let us meet them head up, with all we have, and we shall feel the glorious lift and spiritual surge that comes from doing our best for a patriotic and righteous cause. GEO. W. GLASGOW, Principal. • ( Page Four 1 Occi SufrenlfttcHctetit At the close of his second year as Superintendent of the Youngstown Public Schools, George A. Bowman has earned a definite place in the community life for notable achievements in his chosen work. A believer in the three dimensional— culture of body, mind, and spirit, Mr. Bowman goes alertly, seemingly effortlessly, on his way, adjusting the curricula of elementary and secondary schools to meet the needs of war time demands. Wilson stands at salute to Superintendent Bowman. • { Page Five Another June brings the 1942-1943 Orion, ably edited by Nellie Krill, Theresa Thurik and Mary Jane Paul . . . Capably guided by Mr. Williamson, founder and director . . . Miss Has- tings, art director . . . and Mrs. Muldoon, editor-adviser ... It is a symbol of Wilson ' s growth . . . Bill Morgan, acting as adver- tising business manager, has done a commendable job ... In the Art Department, and doing competent work, we have Martha Gagyi and Robert Hoover . . . Mother ' s Little Helpers, Henry Becker, Bob Childs, Randall LaVogue, Gertrude Murar and Edward Yurick cooperated splendidly, displaying unusual ability ... It is our sincere hope that the Orion, published in this year of 1943, will serve as a memento, not only of our activities and achievements, but also of our boys who will be leaving soon for the Armed Forces ... of our teachers who guided and encour- aged us along the way . . . also a reminder for the undergradu- ates who wish to remember Wilson as it was this year.

WILSON COURSES The courses in the various departments of Wilson, whose faculty is pictured on these foregoing pages, are being gradually adjusted to national directives; rapidly in some cases, more slowly in others. No group of citizens bears a more serious responsibility than the men and women charged with guiding the growth of boys and girls. Failure to meet their present needs will mean grave difficulties in the days that lie ahead. At Wilson, as elsewhere, special courses are being added, and changed em- phasis made in regular subjects. Homeroom teachers and class- room teachers, alike, at Wilson, are counseled to grasp every occasion to give a wider scope to student activities, that they may include social, moral, and character aspects, along with mental and physical hygiene. Students are made to feel, at Wilson, that the curriculum that they are pursuing is a stable one, and that it will serve as a security to build other securities. During these times, pupils need a school whose faculty they may turn to in confidence, for a solution of their adolescent problems. This is being done through the daily class sessions, the extra curricular activities of clubs, and the personal guidance of a calm and friendly teacher who will help and direct, when sensitive, impressionable, and more or less emotionally unstable students are in need of aid. Hence, the main endeavor, at Wilson, is to carry on a regular normal school program through the period of disturbing elements engendered by a world at war. H«( Page Twelve jisF a®© DAVID D.

We would like to thank personally Miss Pierson and Miss Eckert, our homeroom teachers, for their personal interest in each and everyone of us. We hope you have enjoyed us as a class as much as we have enjoyed you as our teachers. You can be sure that we ' ll always remember you both. To Miss Cummings and Mr. Hartman, our able and helpful sponsors, goes our gratitude for helping to make our last year at Wilson an enjoyable one. We wish to thank our principal, Mr. Glasgow, whose leadership inspired us on to attain new heights. May you guide future Wilsonians as you have guided us in the past. Although we go out into the world tomorrow and leave our high school days behind us forever, they will never be forgotten. There are no words to express the appreciation and gratitude that we feel within us today. MARJORIE ROBINSON In Appreciation •«8| Page Twenty IS ' There is a word which we, the January Class of 1943, hesitate to say today and that is goodbye. Most of us never realized that this world could come to mean so much to us as it does at this moment. Its meanings are numerous — meanings which are not found in the dictionary but which we feel down deep in our hearts. Knowing that we will no longer be able to have the understanding guidance of Mr. Glasgow, and the faculty, leaves a feeling of emptiness within us. We should like to say at this time that we could have chosen none finer, more apt, or more willing to aid us than Miss Cummings and Mr. Hartman, our class sponsors. As a whole, from this day on we are no longer a part of Wilson High. Those of you who are graduating later on will know then what we are trying to put into words now.

In these trying times we have been given the opportunity and facilities to complete the educa- tion which we so much desired. This is truly to be appreciated and we are indeed fortunate. Therefore, the June Class of 1943 wishes to express its sincere thanks to Mr. Glasgow, to the faculty, to Miss Long and Mr. Wachter, our able and helpful deans, and to our sponsors. Miss Brungard and Mr. Strick- ler for the important part they have played in moulding our lives. No tribute would be complete without showering words of praise on the student body whose helpfulness and encouragement urged us on to greater heights. We hope the student body will benefit by the traditions and standards set by our group. We will not let evil influence us as we go out into the world; but rather we will seek to fulfill our dreams of yesteryear in a righteous manner — the code of our dear Alma Mater. ED YURICK In Appreciation ■«j( Page Forty-seven } Today, while a bitter conflict rages between democracy and its opposing forces, the world is in a state of chaos. All who live in a democracy know the high ideals and freedoms it affords those who participate in this form of government. They who would seek to destroy the treasures which we hold so dearly and prize so highly will eventually be destroyed by those who uphold and strengthen democracy. The dictators who believe that the democratic form of government can- not exist, have swayed their people into believing the same. They would not have the people share in the fruits reaped by democracy, but rather they are selfish and seek to benefit alone in setting up their form of government — a government so corrupt that it is as infamous as the evil minds who origin- ated and uphold it. We are fortunate to be living in a country where the government is the people and the people are the government. We cannot live under the impression that democracy and all it stands for can be eliminated. Therefore let us not tarry lest the enemy suppress us, but rather let us engage in this struggle so that when we reach our goal of ultimate victory, democracy will emerge as the only true form of government. ED YURICK Democracy ••Jl Page Forly-eighl ) • It is with a sad and heavy heart that we say farewell to our beloved Alma Mater. Life will seem strange without the familiar and beautiful sur- roundings to which we have become accustomed. It is indeed a trial to bid adieu to our pleasant associations. The high ideals which we have tried to reach, we have learned from Mr. Glasgow, through whose efforts we have attained a rigorous course of training to equip us in future years, and from the faculty which has prepared us with the necessary knowledge, training, and skill for attaining our life work. To Miss Long, dean of girls; and Mr. Wachter, dean of boys, in whose care we placed all our trials and tribulations and whose thoughtful assistance became a real necessity in our school life, we give grateful appreciation. To Miss Brungard and Mr. Strickler, our class sponsors, who gave their all in counsel that we might reap and derive full benefits in our senior year, we. alute you. In stepping out on the stage of life and portraying our life roles to the best of our ability we can never forget these fond memories which we shall cherish while life lasts. ED YURICK Au Revoir How clear to me that first day seems When we fulfilled our grade-school dreams We, half-afraid, with quaking knees Entered Wilson, but not at ease. Older we felt the second year Doing each task with little fear We soon began to realize Standards we were in freshmen ' s eyes. Sped our third year on shining wings As we prepared for higher things Now senior year, we have attained A start in real life we have gained. When we look back through our four years We recall hours — laughter and tears To school, to teachers, all of you The time has come to bid adieu. Farewell ? ■ Page Forty-nine ) ' ADORNATO.

The 1943 football season, Woodrow Wilson ' s second year in Class A high school competition, proved to be a vei y successful one. The boys per- formed their duties excellently and as a result won the City Championship. Undefeated this year although once tied by East, the Bott Trophy was awarded by George Bowman to the team. The Presidents were not only recog- nized as City Champs, but were among the five undefeated scholastic teams of the state. They defeated Rayen, South, Chaney and Ursuline. Rayen and Chaney suffered only those defeats by Wilson. The boys also over- powered Farrell which was awarded the Pennsylvania A A District 10 title. There were 13 lettermen, nine of whom are seniors and four juniors. Seven Wilson lads made the All-City Team this year. Jake Balkovac, Tony Pavlich, Howdy Friend, and Andy Bodzak were on the first team and George Garasic, Henry Jablonski, and Andy Kuchmaner on the second team. Wilson 14— Rayen 7 The Presidents took their City Series opener 14-7, literally pushing Rayon all over the field. With less than a minute to play, Howdy Friend snatched a thirty-yard pass on the five-yard line, tossed by Andy Kuchmaner. From here George Deutchlander plunged over in two tries to break the existing 7-7 deadlock, thus winning the game. Wilson 7— Farrell Wilson won over Farrell 7-0 to make it two in a row for the Red and White. In the second quarter the boys struck like lightning, taking advantage of a fumble by Farrell on their own twenty. Jablonski and Kuchmaner plunged to the three where Kuchmaner scored. Jablonski tossed to Balkovac for the extra point. Football ■ Page Sixty-three } Wilson 0— East Wilson and East battled to a scoreless tie in strictly on aerial battle. The team managed to get within the five-yard stripe twice but failed to score. Wilson also topped in first and tens to the score of 6 to 2; Wilson gaining 100 yards while East only gained 53 yards. Wilson 19— Struthers With Henry Jablonski ' s passing combined with Andy Bodzak ' s broken field running, the undefeated Presidents trounced Struthers 19-0. The team scored in every quarter except the second with Bodzak, Friend, and Deutch- lander carrying the burden. Wilson 7 — Sharon Wilson proved its power over Sharon by defeating them 7-0. The Red and White team threatened much more than the score indicates. Sharon never advanced beyond the 39-yard line. Bodzak scored from the 44-yard line in two plays and Jablonski passed to Balkovac for the extra point. Wilson 13— South 6 A determined Wilson downed South 13 to 6. The Red and White scored in the first and second quarters while the Red and Blue scored their only tally in the last few minutes of play by a passing and running attack. The team ' s first score came in the first five minutes of play when they rolled down the field on successive running plays, climaxed by Deutchlander ' s plunging over for the initial marker. In the second quarter the boys took possession of the ball on their own eight-yard line and progressed to the two. Jablonski then completed a pass to Balkovac for the second touchdown. Wilson 19— Chaney 6 In toppling Chaney, the Presidents assured themselves of at least a tie for the City Scholastic Crown of 1942. Chaney, up to this time, had been un- beaten. A host of driving backs and a strong line that functioned flawlessly resulted in the victory. Wilson took the opportunity offered by Chaney ' s fumbles and went on to win. Friend, Bodzak, and Kuchmaner scored for Wilson, while Papach scored for Chaney. Wilson 13— Memorial 12 Defeating Memorial 13-12, Wilson kept their slate clean of defeats. Andy Bodzak shook himself loose twice on touchdown gallops. One was a sensa- tional 75-yard dash. Then Deutchlander came through with the extra point on a placement kick. Memorial failed to tie the score in the last quarter when they scored twice but missed their conversion. Wilson 25— Ursuline The boys captured the City Crown as they defeated Ursuline 25-0. The game featured Kuchmaner, getting away for electrifying runs, one a 91 -yard gallop and Jake Balkovac. Each scored twice. Balkovac took a pass from Jablonski for the extra point. This ended the season for Wilson, leaving the team undefeated but once tied. Coach Hartman and Assistant Coach Mitchell both deserve much credit for producing such a great championship team.

Wilson 44— Akron Garfield 22 Winning the initial gome by drubbing Akron Garfield to the tune of 44-22 with Balkovac netting 22 points, the Presidents seemed well fit for the see-saw schedule ahead. Wilson 25— Farrell 43 The next jaunt was to Farrell, but this time the Presidents lost to the Champions 43-25, Balkovac and Bush both netting 8 points. Wilson 43— Lynbrook 28 Wilson 33— Rockville Center 36 During Christmas vacation, the Presidents journeyed to New York to tangle with two Long Island teams. Defeating Lynbrook 43-28, Balkovac, Bush and Gibson tallied 15, 12, and 8 points respectively. The following evening meant a hard fought reverse, with Rockville Center downing the Pi sidents to a score of 36-33. Wilson 41 — Canton Timken 50 Wilson lost a tough battle to a powerful Canton Timken High team, champs of Canton, 50-41. Bush tallied II points, Balkovac 10, and Gibson 12. Wilson 48— East 11 The Red and White were victors in their first City Series encounter, down- ; ing East 48-11. Balkovac and Bush divided 31 of Wilson ' s markers. Wilson 25 — Alumni 34 The following week the Alumni defeated the Wilson quintet 34-25. i PetroIIini and Russell pacing the graduates 25 between them while Gibson | took high honors with 15 markers, Balkovac and Bush following with 13 and 12. j Wilson 34— Rayen 25 j Wilson put on a high pressure attack in the second half in measuring i Rayen and ending with a 34-25 victory. The game was a battle of high j scoring centers with Balkovac getting 15 and Wilcox headlining Rayen with 16. j Wilson 38 — Campbell Memorial 19 i The Presidents got on the right side of the ledger with its fourth triumph I in seven starts by drubbing Campbell Memorial 38-19. Bolkovac ' s 23 points were tops and the super floorwork by Bob McCall also featured. | Wilson 58— Ursuline 19 In Wilson ' s third City Series clash, they defeated a weak Ursuline team 58-19 with Gibson ' s hitting the draperies for 24 points, and Bush following with 12. Wilson 33— Chaney 30 ( The fourth City Series encounter ended in another victory for the Presi- • dents by their downing Chaney 33-30. The first half was easy sailing for the Red and White, but Chaney came back strong to give Wilson a terrific battle all the way down the stretch. WUson 54— Niles 28 Wilson had easy going, boosting its season ' s record to seven victories against four defeats by trouncing Niles 54-26, with Gibson and Paluga shining with 20 and 13 points. Basketball hG( Page Sixty-seven ) Wilson 28— South 30 The fifth City Series encounter was a heart breaker, because of such a hard fought battle ' s ending in defeat, 30-28. This conflict was with our South Side rival, South High, who ended City Champs. With a tie score, and with 8 seconds left. Coppersmith, South ' s center, put the final basket in. Balkovac made a determined bid for a tie but his shot bounced off the loop. Balkovac was high man, netting 10 markers. Wilson 37 — Campbell Memorial 34 The Presidents next trip was again to Campbell Memorial and they re- turned home with a 37-34 triumph after a gruelling cage battle. Balkovac led with 15 points. Wilson 53— Struthers 52 Wilson cagers hit the basket with unfailing regularity as they ran up a 53-52 triumph over Struthers on the local court. Every member of the starting quintet contributed to the scoring. Bush garnered 15, Balkovac 14, McCall II, Paluga 8, and Friend 5. Wilson 34 — Scienceville 52 The sixth and final encounter of the City Series ended in a 52-34 defeat for the Presidents. Scienceville ' s tight defense limited Balkovac to 4 points, but Bush and Gibson each collected 10. Wilson 20— Sharon 41 The next trip was to Sharon, leader of the Mercer County League at the time. This climaxed in a 41-20 margin over the Presidents. McCall netted 7 points and Balkovac 6. Wilson 38— Alliance 37 Wilson quintet edged Alliance 38-37 in an overtime which furnished plenty of excitement throughout the game. Bush ' s foul conversion decided the contest. Bush led with 12 points, and Gibson followed with 8. Basketball fans at Wilson will find the same faces next year except for Clarence Paluga and George Garasic who graduate in June. Coach Howard Hartman will be counting on the services of Jake Balkovac, Howard Friend, Bob McCall, Charles Bush, Bob Gibson, Bill Lee, Tom Golden, Bill Kardis, and Alvin Barnhart for his 1943-44 team. In keeping with the standards of past Wilson teams, there is little ques- tion that the coming basketball team will have all the right and winning spirit that has made Wilson felt wherever it battled.

Golf Team • 6t Page Seventy June 1943 brought to an end another season for the Wilson ififle Club under the supervision of Mr. Hopkins. Although some fine shooting was done by the team, we fell down in matches with other schools. This may have been due to the many grem- lins that are wandering around just now. We were defeated twice by Boardman, the scores being 480-470 and 490-458. The next week we were taken over by South, 484-470 and then by Rayen, 480-464. However, these continuous defeats did not dampen our spirits, but rather encouraged us to look forward to the coming season. We hope to have our own range by next year. The annual Rifle Tournament sponsored by Post 15 of the American Legion was held April 17. About twelve Wilson stu- dents entered the meet. Raymond Palkovic brought home the Youngstov m Auxiliary Police Trophy with a score of 326. He also took third place medal for Class A off-hand shooting. Top honors were taken by Rayen and South.

In this year, there has been more activity credited to this department than ever before. One of the most outstanding events during the season was the operetta, The Forest Prince, music by Tschaikowsky, a romantic, thrilling story of the brave Russians. The leading char- acters were: Betty Rigbey, Bill Welsh, John Leskovansky, Wini- fred Williams, Eileen Shea, Jock Grover, Bruce Brackenridge, and Homer Brocious, who were supported by an excellent Chorus. The vocal department supplied lovely music for the Bac- calaureate Services. It has become a tradition here at Wilson for the Senior members of the A Cappello Choir to take their places in the choir and sing for their own Baccalaureate Service, in view of the fact that it will be their final farewell service to the voice department. Musical Notes { Page Seventy-four } This year, more than ever before, this department has played a very active part in various assemblies. It has entertained with many inspiring patriotic selections, which added enthusiasm to our Victory Corps and other assemblies. In addition to its contributions to the school, many members of the Voice department took part in Hymn Fests consisting of members of various choirs throughout the city. Wilson ' s choir is the first in the city to present a singing send-off to the boys leaving to join the Armed Forces. Our Voice department, under the direction of Mrs. Leah Mac- Donald, has distinguished itself and proven what it can do. May it continue to do as well and may it even exceed this year ' s work in the future. Musical Notes ■ t Page Seventy-five ) • :?3li! %En Sn!

Their activities include field trips to Mill Creek Park and other scenic spots which has brought about a greater interest in art. The Art Club has played a major part in the activities of the school. Scalps v ith hangings of our victims in graphic portrayals of victories, programs and scenery for plays and operettas, post- ers and tickets for dances and parties, or any school campaign — truly v orks of art. Some of the prize-winning entrances in Art Shows are: William Rakocy — first prize in cartoon-drawing in the Tri-County Journalism. Raymond Trovers — two first prizes — one in oil, and one in water color in the Regional Scholastic Show at Cleveland, and two honorable mentions. Steve Mulichak ' s water color. Marines ' Landing, was given an honorable mention. A new-comer to our school, Wayne Rand, was awarded sec- ond prize in pencil sketching. Robert Hoover, William Rakocy, Steve Mulichak, and Ray- mond Trovers were represented in the New Year ' s Show at Youngstown ' s Butler Art Gallery.

Although the Booster Club is a comparatively new organ- ization, it is already well-established in its work, — a program of supporting and boosting all school activities, . such as con- ducting pep assemblies and helping sell activity tickets. This program is whole-heartedly carried on by the combined efforts of each member. This year the Booster Club presented our cham- pionship football team with gold footballs.

All members must have a camera and be interested in photography. New members are voted in when there is a vacancy caused either by resignation or dis- missal. Club programs are furnished by the Eastman Kodak Company. Contests will be held to increase the skill and knowledge of each member.

To be such a leader you must practice for many long hours. Practice brings the correct motions. The cheerleaders, also, have spring and fall training. An in- vitation is extended to anyone who has a desire to become such a leader during the spring training. They work right along with the old ones. The reward for the many long hours of practice and fun comes when you are awarded your letter. Only the successful ones get theirs — the rest keep trying. Mr. Zoss is the able leader and director.

This organization has charge of projectors used in visual education and the noon-hour movies. It co-operates with the various departments in the school in bringing education through movies. The noon-hour movies are enjoyed by all students. These movies are full length professional pictures produced and di- rected by prominent Hollywood picture corporations. Each member of the club has a post for a period of one week. To cover all posts it takes nine weeks. The club is composed of eighteen boys and a faculty adviser. New members are elected each semester from a list of applica- tions submitted by prospective members. Members must learn to operate carbon arc and Mazda pro- jectors. These constitute slide projectors, both sound and silent 16 mm. movie projectors and 35 mm. carbon arc movie projectors. These machines are of professional and semi-professional sizes. The operation of these machines is very interesting as well as educational and the knowledge of electricity and optics gained is useful in many lines of work. Advisor: Mr. Datson.

He must ascertain beforehand the number of subscriptions needed for each particular issue, then he must follow up this work by distributing the papers. By no means have his duties ended at this point. Now he must really expend effort in order to collect the money from each subscriber; and then turn it over to the Hi-Lights collector who calls for it. Each Home Room teacher selects a student to act as a repre- sentative. This student must not only be willing to undertake the task; but he must be, in addition, aggressive, punctual, reliant, and pleasingly polite. When a representative fails in these respects he is replaced immediately since it is no easy task to promote and increase sales within the individual home rooms.

Since then, the Hi-Lights has become a member of the Na- tional Society of Quill and Scroll, the Tri-County Journalism Association, and the Journalism Association of Ohio Schools. It participates in the many activities of all three organizations, and delegates were sent to Columbus to represent Wilson in the annual meeting of high school journalists. This year marks the initiation of deserving members of the staff into the Quill and Scroll Society. Wilson has maintained a charter in this organization since 1941. First prize awards, presented by the Tri-County Association this year, were won by Doris Baughman, for Editorial and William Rakocy, for Cartoon. An Honorable Mention award was received by Pauline Ladd for Feature. The Journalism Class, now in its second year, is the work- shop for newspaper writing, and in this class matters of general journalistic interest are discussed. An event, held annually by the Hi-Lights staff, is the Spring Dinner-Dance. The Hi-Lights has adopted the motto, Qf the students, for the students, and by the students. Mr. Martin, the advisor, is also Journalism instructor. Mr. Zoss and Mr. Silverman direct the Business Management. Ila Guilinger and Betty Daprile have served the paper as edi- tors during the year.

This in turn, brought a closer co-operation between the teachers and students. Members of the legislative body comprise representatives elected from each Home Room whose aim it is to fulfill the duties of this office. Officers are elected each semester and the highlight of each election is the campaign similar to that carried on in city elections. During the first year of its organization under the advisor- ship of Miss Pierson and Mr. Jones, the Student Congress had many successful ventures among which the most important were the Defense Stamp Drive and a campaign for raising money for the school through magazine subscriptions. As the Student Congress becomes more thoroughly organ- ized, we hope for a finer co-operation among students and teachers alike which will result in rapid progress for our school.

The play centered around a movie actress who causes a lot of trouble by accepting an invitation to the Spring Dance. There were plenty of laughs throughout the play. This play was produced as a musical comedy in 1941 at the Ethel Barrymore Theater in New York. It had a successful run on Broadway and earned praiseworthy comments from the theater critics. The members of the cast included: Ed Durda. Ray Horvath, Bill Davis, Ray Travers. Bill Morgan, Geo. Garasic, Betty Daprile, Donnie McFarland, Lois Nixon, Mary Bissman, Benny Gessler, Richard Palkovic, Gaye McKulak, Geo. Deutchlander, Ed Yurick, Elinor Signer, Winifred Williams.
