The Year

Enrollment was around 275. Students included a refugee from the Korean War. Teresa Shinye Ree enrolled in late September, shortly after being flown into the U.S. from the Pusan refugee camp.

Joyce Sawaya was Girls Sodality prefect and helped organize the Marian procession in early October. It had been postponed in May because of torrential rains. The Marian Year opened Dec. 8, 1953, inaugurated by Pope Pius XII to commemorate the pronouncement of the Dogma of the Immaculate Conception. Junior girls, dressed in formals, were part of Queen Sawaya’s court. All other grade school and high school girls wore pastel colors. Boys wore suits and ties. The group formed a living rosary on the football field. Members of the Girls Senior Sodality included vice prefect Ruth Ann Agnew, secretary Margaret Clark, treasurer Patricia Rogers and members Valerie Stockman, Beatrice Hurtado, Ruth Ann Brown, Barbara Jean Foster, Dorothy Roser, Mary Gilhool, Glaydus Hayes, Janet Hopf, Patricia Niland, Mary Vitzthum, Rose Marie Eugster, Mary Ellen Burns, Nancy Rodriguez, Georgia Hamilton, Nancy Howa, Lorena Jacobson, Adella Leggett, Kathryn Adams, Marie Bennett, Idamae Waters, Celeste Gourley, Barbara Howes, Joan Bartley, Helen Fife and Marie Montoro.

The new gymnasium was dedicated Sept. 10 by Bishop Duane Hunt, who solemnly blessed all of the rooms on the ground and second floors before a large crowd. He was assisted by Fr. Mark Benvegnu, who had recently left Judge for a Diocesan post but had been responsible for the gym’s development. Designed by R. Bruce Folsom and engineer M. E. Hunt, the gym was praised for its “huge basketball court, six classrooms and other facilities.” An open house followed for parents. The Homecoming dance was held in the gym.

The Judgeonian officially became the school newspaper. Its inaugural edition, co-editors Celeste Gourley and Thomas Black reported in the Intermountain Register, was “received enthusiastically by the student body.” Sr. Judith Therese was the newspaper’s adviser.

An editorial written by John Coletti won first place in a national contest sponsored by the Freedoms Foundation in Valley Forge, Pa. “Our American Freedom is alive,” he wrote. “On the dark nights of 1776, the fire of blazing guns sparked the tinder of freedom. On the hot summer days in the little town of Gettysburg, hope kept freedom alive. In a month of death in 1945 on the bloody sands of Iwo Jima, free men saved our cherished freedom.” The Columbia Scholastic Press Association awarded the Judgeonian a first-place certificate in a year-end contest. University of Utah certificates of merit went to Mary Vitzthum and Bill Snarr for photography, Elaine Seidel for sports writing and Tom Black for general excellence.

Sports

The football team went 4-3-1 in the final season under George Melinkovich, who resigned at the Judge Boosters banquet after three years and a 12-8 record. He went on to coach at St. Monica’s High School in Santa Monica, Calif. Junior Gil Cordova was the quarterback. His favorite receiver was senior halfback John Webb. In a 44-12 win over Park City, both Harry Shaw and Tom Giblin blocked punts, setting up touchdowns by Webb, who scored 31 points himself. When Judge beat North Summit, 19-14, a Leon Allen fumble recovery set up the winning touchdown. “Some fine Cordova passing moved the Bulldogs deep into North Summit territory and dependable John Webb rammed over the locals’ third score,” the Catholic Register said. The season’s low point came the first week of October. On Judge’s schedule, the Bulldogs were supposed to travel to Morgan for a Friday night game. But on Morgan’s schedule, the game was supposed to be played two days earlier, on Wednesday night. So its team and fans showed up that evening, but Judge was nowhere to be found. League officials decided to call the game a tie and to not make it up unless necessary. It wasn’t. A week later, Cordova and Webb teamed up on a “time-honored Statue of Liberty play” in a 25-7 win over Grantsville.

The team’s seniors were Bob Barber, Vince Schile, John Webb, Harry Shaw, Bill McNamara, Mike Walz, Jack McNamara, John Delaney and Leon Allen. Sophomore George Fedor drew accolades during the season. He also was pictured (along with Harry Shaw) in the Register wearing protective nose and teeth guards, precursors to the face mask. Shaw won the Moran Award as the team’s most outstanding player. Cordova was singled out as the most improved player. Other players included Tom Giblin, Pat Cunningham, Bob Sullivan, Bill Snarr, Charles Manca, Sam DeLuca, Pete O’Connor, Joe Mansuy, George Fedor, Jerry Francone, Jack Moore, Sam Kounalis, Fred McNamara, Peter Pence, Tom Vogrinec, Fred Gamble, Dick Boyer, Tom Linnerbur, John Zucca, Ned McDonough, Mike Giblin, Jack Raterman, Arthur Hurtado, Leo Leonard, Paul Gini, Tony Smith, Fred Pinkerton, David Booth, Neil Plummer, Bob Jarvis, Harold Turner and Jay Gamble.

Frank Callen, the police chief in Bingham Canyon, was hired as basketball coach after a year of helping with the baseball team. He was also an assistant football coach to George Melinkovich. An All-State quarterback his junior and senior years at Bingham High School, Callen attended Notre Dame then played football and basketball at St. Mary’s College in California. He graduated with a history degree in 1947. He coached in Montana before moving to Utah to be the police chief. In her column in the Intermountain Register, “Judge Jottings,” Mary Vitzthum quoted Callen as being appreciative of the contribution that the Pep Club makes to athletic success. “Very few people realize the importance of the Pep Cub,” he said. “The spirit of the cheering section during a game definitely has an effect on the boys.”  Callen’s basketball team was led by juniors Joe Banchero, Bob Sullivan, Benny Gardner and Gil Cordova along with veterans John Delaney, Jack McNamara, Harry Shaw, Fred Gamble, Leo Walz, Sam DeLuca, Bill Snarr, Joe Mansuy, Jim Middendorf, Garf Bai and Mike Walz. The team posted a 3-12 record in the new gym. Banchero was the team’s most valuable player.

Judge fielded a girls basketball team to play in an Inter-Church Basketball League that included Rowland Hall, St. Paul’s Episcopal, Wasatch Presbyterian and Hellenes Greek Orthodox. Emma Burbidge and Helen Coburn were the coaches. Vera Dailey, Class of 1957, was the captain. The team lost its first game to First Presbyterian, 24-23 on two late free throws. Team members included juniors Donna Cordova, Donna Murray, Rose Marie Eugster, Yvonne Bell, Elise Leford, Sue Connole, Beatrice Hurtado and Joan Windle, sophomores Dailey, Judy Rogers and Judy Maher and freshman Roberta Coletti.

The Judge ski team finished sixth among 10 teams at the Jackson Hole ski tournament, led by Ski Club president Harold Turner. Also racing were Tom Eilers, Dave Keyser, Joe Miller, Butch Palmer, Peter Pence and Neil Plummer. Ski Club members received free lessons each Saturday morning at Brighton. At the Knudsen Cup, Turner finished fifth among 43 high school skiers, followed by Tony Eilers (eighth), Butch Palmer (15th), Joe Miller and Neil Plummer.

Frank Callen also coached the 6-1 baseball team to the Summit Division championship, secured with a 22-7 thrashing of Morgan. Judge then lost 7-2 in Bingham in the Region II playoff. Bingham catcher Tom Lovat, a future University of Utah head football coach, hit for the cycle, knocking in five of the Miners’ seven runs. Fred Gamble, Bob Barber, Bob Sullivan, Charlie Eidler and John Webb were the team’s top hitters. Carl Benvegnu, Sullivan, Joe Mansuy and Fred Pinkerton formed the mound staff. The squad also featured Harry Shaw, Pete O’Connor, Gil Cordova, Bill Snarr, Sam DeLuca, Pat Cunningham, Garf Bai, Fred Gamble, Dick Boyer, Tom Linnebur, Mike Abbato, Sandy Dolowitz, Tom Vogrinec and Joe Derbridge.
