Students at St. Mary’s High School in Sandusky published a journal called The Bell (now a yearbook). A copy of the May, 1931 edition is housed in the Schools Collection of the Sandusky Library Archives Research Center. At the top of the front page of the pictorial section of this issue is a picture of Rev. William C. Zierolf as well as a scene taken at dismissal time at the end of the school day. The faculty is pictured at the bottom of the page (below). From left to right are: Miss Evelyn Bing, Miss Lillian Fievet, Mr. Ramond Helmer and Miss Olga Gundlach.
Pictured below in a scene from the annual St. Mary’s High School play are: Paul Hemrick, Dorothy Riesterer, Eula Sheets, Charles LeClair, Elizabeth Donahue, Geraldine Mack and Kenneth Polta.
Individual pictures of members of the St. Mary’s 1931 graduating class are pictured on page 2. Several of the young ladies appear to have a hairstyle known as the “Marcel Wave,” which was very popular in the 1920s and 1930s.

Wonderful item about The Bell. I was co-editor of The Bell in my senior year at St. Mary's, class of 1954. I still have my copy of the last edition that year, as it contains photos and brief write-ups of every senior graduating that year. It's fun to re-read it every few years. It was traditional, as I suspect it was at many high schools, to ask classmates to write their names near their photo, as a rememberance of special times we spent with each other during our four years together. GO PANTHERS!!!
Loved seeing. My mother was Elizabeth Donahue, who married Art McCall.
