Every tree and flower, every building and familiar landmark with which we were happily associated during those developing years, will always he a treasured part of each poignant recollection. And so We, who have heen graduated this year, dedicate our hook to our beloved town and high school. . PUBLXC af X :ju nu FOREWORD VVhen in future fears we lonv for the comforting rotection and 5' O D O P the happy .days of hlgh school, let us open to thls page and travel backward lnto tlme. Let If be a handmalden to memory, a maglc carpet to carry us back to Mount Vernon and our youth. Perhaps we may even recapture for a moment those pleasant days, and then we shall have succeeded .in our purpose, for, though a happy day passes, we may treasure 1fS memory hke a precxous jewel, and for all that our school and town have done for us, we shall be eternally grateful. May the next pages, in a humble way, show our gratitude to Davls and Mount Vernon. "Backward, turn hack-ward, O Time, in your flight, Make me az child again just for tonight!"

Few of us realize, however, that in a similar manner, the head of our Board of Education aids in the molding of our characters during our formative school years. By training and experience, Miss Rhodes has been a capable and well qualified leader. Through her careful preparations and purpose- ful endeavors, we students have been well informed and instructed. She has led in the improvement of teaching methods by combining the best from leading educational centers. Miss Rhodes has proved herself to be most capable and zeal ' helping us improve durinff YVe are ous in S our school years.

VVhen she was not buried 3 among the voluminous volumes contained in the hook room, or telling i young psychiatrists-to-be about the razor in I'Spellbound'y, she was to be found in conference with K'Coach', Doyle, or some other member of the English Department. The English language is the backbone of our society and as such is the backbone of the school. VVe are indeed fortunate to have such an efficient and conscientious group of English instructors, 'lhlusic is the soul of man,', some wise sage once said. To be sure that no Davisite was lacking in soul-development, Mr. Nielsen and Mr. Licht, as always, prepared musical treats for Davisites to enjoy. lVlr. Nielsenls chorus serenaded us during the Christmas assembly, and the band, under hlr. Licht's able direction, gave a concert that showed to the pleasure of all, its versatility and vigor of performance. Both these men will always deserve great praise for their continued efforts in making more and more of Davis music-conscious. C. Licni, E.

Yes, "patience is a virtue," and without the undying efforts of our educators we would probably continue to crawl and babble. However, with their aid, we've advanced beyond the Stone Age, and some of us even attempt to nibble on a slice of another language. Deutsch, El Espanol, Le Francais and Latin are echoed throughout the halls with a strong American accent. But we,ll get there, thanks to our poor sufferers who are obliged to listen to the wrong verb conjugations. To further us in our ambition to rub verbs with any foreigner, language clubs have been organized for each respective language. Here, the eager beavers parlez-vous francais, comprende el Espanol, verstehen Deutsch and gain helpful cultural information regarding these countries. lf one taxes his mental powers sufiiciently, he might recall those pleasant years when he was required to calculate the sum of 'ftwo and two" or the more involved, "one times two." Gone are those days- now we move a point fnothingness in spacej through the air and get a line! By now you must realize it is the Math Department that is under discussion. The fact that the whole staff, with the exception of the business math staff, is comprised of women must have some signin- cant meaning - but we couldn,t find any. M. TAYLOR, M.

To answer this briefly --The Master Mastermind Qlkliss Brownj handled all bond orders and drives, Miss Padou, among others, handled all the stamp orders. Miss VValther collected bottles for Grass- lands and also magazines for the armed forces. The future artists from Davis were given very capable instruction by blr. Dodds and Miss Nourse. hir. Dodds, known to all of us for his Bible-quoting ability, is also well known in the 2lI't world. His paintings have been in many exhibitions in New York. bliss Nourse, in addition to her time-consuming job as the guiding spirit behind the Maroon and Vvhite, also has a -iob as an art teacher. She is certainly to be congratulated for the cooperation she could give the Annual, and yet still be able to give her classes the expert instruction of which she is capable. In the middle of March manyi Davisites planned to visit their optometrists fljark Avenue eye docj to have their winking apparatus given an overhauling. Despite the fact that they were not overworking in school ftheir teachers vouched for thisj, they claimed that they saw many students with spotted countenancesl However, in a well-planned raid, our energetic heroine, Mrs. Morgan, the school nurse allayed their fears by saying that there were spots and that measles were in Davis. Mrs. Morgan handled the situation so well that the number of Uuntouchablesn remained surpris- ingly low. Mrs. Nlorgan is called upon to perform all sorts of odd tasks each day and this illustration shows how capable and adaptable she is. Clothing, food and shelter are the basic essentials of life. To show us how to obtain these essentials, is the job of Miss Redmond and Miss Sherman. PHYSICAL EDUCATION HOME ECONOMICS MEDICAL, ART Rofw I: Miss Redmond, Miss Sherman, Mrs. Morgan, Miss Nourse, Rofw 2: Mr. Oswald, Mr. Doyle, Mr. Palom- bella, Mr. Dodds Their work is taken for granted -- few realize that Miss Redmond arrives here in the early hours of the morn- ing in order to prepare the day's food. The sturdy, healthy- looking students of Davis attest to the success of her prep- arations. Miss Sherman molds the wives of tomorrow from the fair Davis maidens of today. She instructs the girls in dress- making, cooking and other feminine tasks that will be ex- pected of them in future years. The excellence oft her in- struction was shown by the fashion show she directed. This show, praised by all, demonstrated her ability to handle large quantities of clothing and girls fsixty of themj efliciently. Our new addition to the physical ed. staff, Mr. Palom- bella, has proven his worth to all. He learned the ropes quickly - in fact he added a few of his own that had the classes sweating - and possibly swearing! He and Mr. Qswald certainly did their job of keeping Davis boys in good physical condition. The cross country, track, and swimming teams were also under their watchful eyes, in addition to baseball and basketball. It is true that Grant captured Lee at Appomatox, that the Linnaeus system of naming plants, animals, and diseases is still in use, and that moist air is a poor conductor, but were it not for the efforts of our history and science teachers, we would remain ignorant of the two subjects that affect our lives so greatly. The world about us is deeply enveloped in situations that have been the result of these subjects. We are fortunate to have teachers who possess the patience, understanding, kindliness and firmness to guide us in com- prehending them. Our teachers consider their tasks as an opportunity to aid us in such a way that our future may be better for their ex- pert aid. They prepare students to become valuable members of society. This is illustrated by Mrs. Addis' work in organ- izing the "Our Town Club," with the purpose of keeping us informed about city government. Mrs. Hiller's sponsorship of the History Club has proved invaluable to those interested in world affairs. Our science teachers have been guiding factors in a diHi- cult subject which is life itself. Yet, they have ushered us through many phases and have inspired some to pursue the study of science as life work. At some time in our lives We students, either secretly or out- wardly, sincerely thank our in- structors for their work as edu- cators and humanitarians. We would like to thank them now.

In the little time he had to himself, he traveled over the country from coast to coast and took beautiful color photographs of scenery ininational forests which the school had the pleasure of seeing on several occasions. Mr. Caville and Mr. Searle also had the youth's welfare in mind fas had all the teachersj. The former coached the Rifie Team in his free hours, while the latter devoted much of his time to the ac- tivities of the NYU. Mrs. Santen continued on her golfing ways and it was authori- tatively reported that her mashie was a masherl With all the money the G. O. took in and sent out, Miss Creekpaum didn't have very much spare time. Besides, who ever said that collecting money was a bad hobby! Just to "clinch" the argument, notice Mr. Johnson, as thankfully as any of us, returning to his new homer in Fleetwood. The pleasure he gets from seeing an occasional pheasant or wild rabbit, or the wild ducks on the Bronx River near his home is his tonic after a hard day's work. "Pop" Phillips, as umpire at the Student-Faculty game was right at home exercising those famous vocal cords without restraining walls. Messrs. Cullen, Addis and Nielsen are thrilling to a ball game along with the rest of us. We didn,t suspect at the time, but realized later, that Mr. Cullen was there for the express purpose of stealing ideas to use at the Student-Faculty game. He tried to win by unique strategy and almost succeeded.

Eliza- beth Hiller, had a very busy year. During the fall term, the group journeyed to New York City to see the Broadway hit 'State of the Union" which dealt with the problems of politics. Under the leadership of Robert Leon, president during the fall term, and David Feigert, president during the spring, the club discussed current problems, such as "The Future of the Atomic Bombn. A trip to historic St. Paulls Church was proposed. This church was of special interest to the club, as it is the national shrine to Freedom of Speech because the trial of Peter Zenger, the proponent of the right to speak without fear of punishment, was held there. The debaters of the club made extensive use of the Davis library. There were over 6,5011 books plus many pieces of reference material available for the use of any and all Davis- ites. Under the able direction of Miss Proctor, the librarian, the students gained much knowledge through the use of this public service. Rose I1 S, VVeiser, A. Leytou, S. Kay, Ii.

Zuk, Mrs. Addis If you happened to be in Davis any ninth period of a second or fourth Thursday, and felt the walls of Davis High tremor and heard the rumble of Davis students on the run, you all knew that the "Our Town Club" was about to assemble! This club, the largest and most active at Davis, evolv- ed from a primary membership of SO stII- dents to a maximum of 250 "Our Town- ers". Its growth was so tremendous that it abandoned the small auditorium in favor of the large one, but what will happen when it outgrows that? Under the capable supervision of Mrs. Walter Addis, who or- ganized the club in September, 1944, the club strived to acquaint its members with the Mount Vernon city government, its in- dustries, cultural groups, and educational facilities.

After the students had voted for nomination in the primary election, the top ten were again voted upon to as- certain the three main ofiicers of the club. 'lihis year,s officers were Eugene Nadel, Presidentg Barbara Bronson, Vice-Presidentg and Marjorie Reichert, Secretary. Past chief executives were Loomis Dana, the first president, Raymond Myers, and Gray Robinson. The club program, based upon suggestions made by the members, was both instructive and interesting. Dur- ing past meetings, the club heard many of the City's prominent citizens speak on various subjects pertinent to Mount Vernon city life. One of the main features of the fall program was the "Pearl Harbor Dayn visit to City Hall. Through the cooperation of the Mayor and his of- ficial family of City Officials, eight elected and thirty-two delegated representatives of the "Our Town Clubn took over the reins of government in Mount Vernon for the day. Gray Robinson, our "Mayor", spent a really rough day trying to keep up with the pace of His Honor Mayor Wil- liam Hart Hussey. One very obvious consolation to Gray for his trials and tribulations as "Mayor',, was his very charming secretary, Miss Barbara Bronson. And who- ever will forget the "Ere" during which "Fire Chief" Arnold Hoffman climbed up the walls of Davis High, while Davis students stood aghast at this strange and startling phenomenon! VVe shall never know who was more frightened, the "Fire Chiefn or the uspectatorsn. The adventures of Mount Vernon's Hofficialsl' did not stop with a mere fire. Many of the students visited the police station, where they were shown everything from the radio room and finger-print department to the dark cav- LEARNING CITY MANAGEMENT erns of the photography room and the cells where they kept adult delinquents. At a meeting of the Board of Education, Eugene Nadel, student president of the Board, assisted Mr. Robert G. Sturtevant in conducting the monthly meeting of the Board. Through that visit and actually "sitting inn on the various functions of the city government, the students gained Hrst hand information on the workings of the various branches of the municipal government. At noon, the city officials and student representatives Q84 in alll, Went to the Studio Club for luncheon. Mayor Hussey delivered a welcoming address to all on behalf of the other city officials and himself. At the end of the after- noon, when the immediate activities of the city came to a slow halt, the student officials bade a sad adieu to City Hall and its very genial administrators, and then made rt mad dash for Teen Town Qunder the Recreation Com- mission, you know? where the evening's entertainment cleared the cobwebs from tired brains. This ended the activities of the fall term of Our Town Club. The Spring Program got well under way with a Quiz Contest on Mount Vernon, under the Chairmanship of our Vice-Principal, Mr. Childs. Robert Zadek, apparently the best informed "Our Townern on Mount Vernon af- fairs, came out the victor. Nevertheless, he was closely pursued by Arturo Gonzalez, Beatrice Kaplan, Ira Bern-- stein, Mary Ann Hargrave, Joan Habel, and Jerome if Kossar. Yould be surprised at the things they knew about Mount Vernon. The Mount Vernon Movie Makers, who have con- sistently won awards for their excellence in photography, exhibited their prize winning trophies and prize winning movies to the "Qur Townersn. So you see, it wat pos- sible to learn and to enjoy oneself at the same time.

Samuels l CHESS TEAM CHESS TEAM URAILROADSM TO NEW HEIGHTS During U g an interesting experience. Under the leadership of Mr. Sundermann, faculty adviser, the club took several trips to the model railroad exhibit in Pelham and to the New York Central Railroad yards at Harmon. This club had one of the most interesting topics to consider, each of us was thrilled the first time we saw a snorting steam locomotive and wondered what made the wheels go 'round. Another experience which had always mystified the RADIO CLUB majority of us, was the radio. Here at Davis we had a club which studied this interesting gadget. The fel- lows, under the watchful eye of Mr. Buckle during the fall term, and Mr. Rappaport in the spring, took apart and rebuilt radios and built others from scratch. The group also studied other aspects of radio and elec- tronics with the hope of eventually becoming "hams" or famateur radio operatorsj. Everybody was puzzled by the queer names and movements of the chess men used to such good advan- tage by the team. For the third year in succession, the team has won the VVestchester Interscholastic Trophy Cup. Of the ten games played with the county high schools, K'Pop" Phillips' team won nine. They also played the VVard Leonard Electric Company, scoring 5-5, and planned to challenge a New York high school team. The following boys comprised the team: Captain, Arthur Klatskyg Richard Lynn, Daniel Sam- uels, Eugene Goldberg, Donald Stamm, and Harold Hussey. the past year the Railroad Society had many SNAPS A D STAMPS Almost all of us have, at one time or another, snapped a picture and sent the film away to be de- veloped. The Davis shutterbugs formed the Cam- era Club, which this year, under the guidance of Mr. Buckle and later Mr. Rappaport, formed plans to take pictures of each Davisite. To achieve this, the darkroom was renovated, and received a new coat of paint. An exhibition of pictures taken by club members was held in the showcases around the halls. The president of the club, VVilliam Margerin, was Photo Editor of the lVlaroon and VVhite. Several other members served on the staff of the yearbook.

Robert Schweitzer was president of the club and very ably conducted its meetings. Great interest was shown in the various issues which came from all countries during the war, especially those which were used during the occupations. The lead- ers of the Axis countries must have enjoyed seeing their faces on letters, as almost all of the stamps from these countries had as their centers of interest a replica of their countryls leader.

These weight lifting, finger crushing, paint spattered lads were responsible for the fine scenery that was a part of all Davis shows. -Tack Qthe lad-of-all-tradesj had nothing on the stage crew mem- bers. These boys had to be electricians, carpenters, painters, and sweepers, and when a chair or tree was needed during rehearsals, you very possibly might have found them giving of their dramatic ability in order to cover the need. The Thespians were the students who had proven their worth in the Held of acting, make-up application, or set construction. They were a hard-working group and they deserved all the praise they got from the school. NATIONAL THESPIANS IDENTIFICATION fleftj W. Weinberg, D. Sadofsky, R. Dobbs, W. Dubin, R. Zadek, A.

Completely oblivious of their surroundings were co-editors Dorothy Calabrese and Robert Leon desperately working to Ht Mount Vernon somehow into one book. With a Math Genius like Bob Leon anything can happen, even putting city hall on the cover. Sitting nearby was energetic Susan Foster, Art Editor, sketch- ing so many people they seemed to jump right from her pen to the paper. Doing the greater share of the art work, Sue had spent a fortune in time on it. Our nimble-footed photographers, under William lVIargerin's Editorship, had quite a time proving to Sue that much time and energy could he saved by using snaps fnot gingerl Through Miss Nourse's careful guidance and assistance this book was made possible. She cheerfully and willingly gave up her spare time for working on the book. Struggling through an unfathomable depth of papers was Lorraine Alper, the Literary Editor.

Those who would add their names to the illustrious staff were obliged to obtain at least three inches of ad- vertising space from merchants for every issue of the newspaper. The ambitious staff could never sit back and "rest upon its laurelsn.

Undoubtedly the newspaperls high degree of success was due to the efficient management and the manner of choosing the members.

Under the guidance of Mr. Johnson, the Debating Soci- ety has for many years been one of the best known activi- ties in Davis. Students used their ample lung-power to at- tempt to present :I winning case for a proposal or to at- tack this same thing. Every year the society presented debates among the members and against teams from other schools. Annually the lfvander Childs High School of New York City has DEBATING SOCIETY RADIO DISCUSSION CLUB given opposition to our Inter-scholastic Debating Squad as did the freshman members of the Debating Society of, New York University. A model debate was presented for the Saturday Night Club for which Garrett Sanderson winner, received a cash award. The officers of the society were Eugene Nadel, president, David Feigert, vice-presi- dent, and Sidney Knafel, secretary. 1 The Discussion Club, with Mr. Carlson as its sponsor, chose Edwin VVittstein for president duirng the fall term and George Scoledes for the same oHice during the spring. The club served a great need for airing the members' views on current problems and world affairs. IDENTIFICATION Ctopj Rofw I: C. Merola, M. Petrillo, A. Buck, S. B U S I N E S S N E W S Bunker, H.

During this last season, our team did very well. Wfinning our first four games, we almost won the county championship. 'liliousands of spectators at Howard Field testified to the eniioi ment of this game by hlount Vernonites. But our football team had to be helped out, and the :hcci'leaders accomplished this. It was our cheerleaders xx ho put the spirit of the stands behind our men, and who pushed them on to victory. And while some of the cheers M ADE TO ORDER were difficult for the new sophomores to learn, we man- aged to drown out the voices of our opponents without too much straining. The Davis Scoreboard Squad had the task of keeping the spectators informed of the actions of our fast-moving team. The fellows who did this job were kidded by half the school, but think of the bewilderment of some poor ignoramus trying to follow the game without the boardl Our Scoreboard Squad did a fine job, despite the many -iibes they had to endure.

The football season has been over for many months now, but many probably still remember many of Davis's players. Une of the most outstanding was Mauro Valentine, our fullback. Mauro and quarterback Sandy Sokoloff were the hub of many of our plays. They did most of the passing. Running plays are as important as passing plays, in this field we had Angie Carrideo and Herb Ramsey, while Mauro also made several end runs.

Whatever we lacked in other fields, we made up for it in spirit on the gridiron. It is by this spirit that we distinguished ourselves from other schools. Those who saw the New Rochelle game will remember that we had as many rooters at New Rochelle's field as did the home team, and we certainly made as much noise as they. This popularity was shown in the turnout for the team REMEMBER THE DAY? . . .

Mauro Valentine was finally brought down after one of his usual long runs? flf you look closely, you can see lVlauro's left leg sticking out of the pile.j As usual, Big Tom Kloberg QZIJ was right in on the play in case of any slip-ups. at the beginning of the season, when Coach Doyle was mobbed by more than a hundred hopeful football stars. Among this group were players who formed the back- bone of the team, such as Mauro Valentine and Sandy Sokoloff. It was men like these who could lead a team on to victory. Last year our team needed just a little more work to be top team in the county. However, we finished with a good season average. Next year looks very promising. SUPERMEN GF THE GRIDIRON Do these pictures bring back memories? Remember the Pelham game, when Herb Ramsey made that 60 yard run, with only about five minutes left to play? And then there was the traditional Edison game, in which our boys put up such a good fight. We donlt like to think of the time when Chuck Graney broke his hip, and we prob- ably would have made higher scores if he hadn't been injured. In the other pictures We see Bob Clune, Frank Mellis, and some of the other men who contributed so much to our team. Voi.1.1eY BALL X,g rf iv: ,xv sl '.n:' :T,.xJ . W-4.- 5. cu alms? .

On January lll, two teams from Roose- velt played two Davis teams, and after two gruel- ling contests, each school emerged with one vic- tory. Davis won with a close margin of l6-l l, and Roosevelt with a SO-8 conquest. Strangely feminine sounds also emanated from the Fencing Club, and clatter of cavorting foils were strongly Havored with shrieks and chatter from the club's large feminine membership. On closer observation, the casual onlooker would have discovered a group of apparently sane peo- ple involved in hopeless gymnastics. Known only to the layman as upositionsn, these caused many a would-be fencer to retire in order to bathe his aching muscles. The formerly all-male club was surprised by the number of girls who joined and promptly mastered the complexities of mask and foil. Mr. Carlson, the club sponsor, and its president, Iver johnson bravely attempted to develop graceful talents in their many budding fencers. In that line, the girls were 1'eputed to have outdone the boys. llHCN'l'IFlL'A'l'lON ftopj Rofw l: l. Socei, R. Longo, ll. Weisberg, R. Buck- holz, N. Wagner, Rofw Z: E. lVIoore, E. Kenlon, V.

Visions of stal- wart young Amazons appear when it is mentioned. Davis had its own share of en- thusiastic tennis players, who vigorously batted that little white ball back and forth over a net. Batting larger balls around the courts were the exuberant hockey teams. The Girls' Field Hockey Tournaments began in October, with seventy-tive eager females turning out. Dorothy Durfey headed the seniors, Joan Beacom the juniors, and Alice Reichgott the sophomores. They displayed their prowess under the direction of Miss XVight and Miss Taylor. The juniors won by a narrow margin of 2-O, which gave the seniors second place. Members of the winning team received large l'D's" and the losers small ones. The third place sophomore team was awarded felt '448,' numerals. The fine art of bag punching has come into its own at Davis. We don't mean paper bags, either. The boys developed deadly right crosses and upper cuts calcu-- lated to make anyone think twice before entering into combat with them. IDENTIFICATION CLower Leftj Rofw I: Davis, Beacom, E.

Downstairs the boys were cavorting about in their scanty white suits, and upstairs the girls were performing in those pretty blue fpotatoj sacks so flattering to their "Eggers", In this building-up process, only the fit- test survived, and often a lot of fatigued bodies would lie in heaps along the walls. All these trials were eventually successful, and one day, after numerous calculations and measurements, we dis- covered a growth of roughly .0000000l inch in our bi- ceps.

Ethel Clausen, Katherine Davenport, Susan Garland, Audrey Gorman, and Alice Reichgott were the members of this all-important com- mittee, with Miss Wight acting as faculty adviser. Their work consisted of passing on all athletic business, honors, policies, and procedures. They also served as hostesses for a Roosevelt-Davis volley ball game. RIFLE CLUB ON YOUR MARK! The team with the best record this year was the Davis Rifle Team, which emerged the victor in the VVestchester Scholastic Rifle League for the second time, dropping only one match by four points to Roosevelt High during the entire season. Coach Jack Cavillels team members varied, since they were picked from the top ten marksmen in the weekly practice of the Davis RiHe Club.

It was the ninth inning, two out, bases loaded - one strike, two strikes, three - "you're outl " Cheers, jeers, and once again Davis students had proven their physical prowess over their classroom Simon Legrees. More exciting than any Dodger exhibition, the Hill-top sports fans welcome in Spring each year with their annual Student-Faculty game. The diamond displayed many good points on last May ll, with Mr. Russell, Mr. Avery, and Mr. Cullen hop- ing "to keep face" for the teachers after their combat against the more agile younger generation. The Babe Ruthls of Davis included Larry Parker and Herb Ramsey. The highlight of the game came when Larry, with one foot raised in preparation to descend on Mr. Cullen's unsuspecting head, had to decide whether his school or sports career was more important. In that second, with umpire Pop Phillips an unbiased spectator, Larry chose the former. Although our Worthy pedagogues battled commendably, as usual, they had to admit the students' superiority. l . is me vii Q WM s " ' f '..' ! A "ttf if 1 I' 4 'ik 9' Our twirlers and drum majorettes added a great deal of needed color to our football games. These girls were our sehool's flag-bearers, and gave us a brilliant show of school spirit. In basketball this color was lacking, but in the fast-moving football games the spectators were more than satisfied. It was our basketball team which represented Davis during the winter months, and while we were far from the top this year, every man was in there doing his best. Davis has always ex- celled in fair play and good sportsmanship. Let us continue to strengthen these good qualities so that other citizens of our City may desire to know us. 6 X xr! CONFUSIONS MASTERPIECE Long before motorboats and doughnuts were invented, the world was bothered by the apple. As the story goes, Adam and Eve partook of the forbidden fruit and suiferedieternal damnation-fatal applel Henceforth, all who tasted of the never-to-be-eaten green apple doubled up and became twinsl This was their punishment, and as a result, the rest of the world suffered. People hesitated to speak to all carbon copies for fear they were addressing the wrong party. Whenever the dittos went shopping and waited on lines, one was refused by an icy, haunting voice-"only one to a customer." The good citizens of the town were forced into con- fessing that they had just a "wee snort" whenever the double editions crawled by. The druggist prescribed aspirins and seltzers, but people still saw double, and the druggist, failing to mollify the situation, was exiled. Alas, the factory that supplied the aspirins received no orders and had to close down. The workers were jobless and had no buying power. Qther workers, because of this, were forced into oblivion. The town was becoming cadaverous. lVIultiply this drastic situation by thousands and what have you - a hopeless merry-go-round of con- fusion, strife, and depression. Then, out of the troubled sky, came a Hash of hope in the form of Noah VVebster. Taking his powerful pen into hand, he inserted the word "twin" into his dictionary. He, wise and understanding, knew that some children would nibble on the sour apple, and double up. Therefore, wishing to redeem them he interpolated his wide-read text and wrote: "twin-one of two persons or things related by ties of birthfl He never mentioned their sin, and, as a result, the ever-grateful, ever-increasing army erected a monument for the man who provided a refuge for them, who saved them from the flood of bewilderment. Thus it was that Noah's Ark came into existence. And now, centuries later, the world thrives happily, and has grown to love and accept twins-so much, in fact, that a certain Johnny Appleseed planted apple seeds in the hope of cultivating this one-time destructive apple. So the story goes. . . fShades of Gemini, what liesl J CHARACTER BUILDERS I w - 'A' 'k 'A' ll' ll' ir lm N'l'Il'lk'A'l'lON tmpj Snllnfi Mr. lit-iiril--sm, hlrs.

'HA JUST NO .SERVICEMEN,S COMMITTEE TICING Did you notice that the G. O. featured a seasonal ticket which enabled football fiends to go to the game at reduced rates? This eliminated the mad dash to the ticket lines Fri- day after school. They also sponsored "College Days". G.O. students are just like any other Davis hep-cats, elected to lead the school government. Did you notice the re-appearance of those attractive "Al- pha Tau Deltiansn at the football games who had not ap- peared there since the war? Entering the gate, one was prac- tically knocked over by five girls trying to sell a booster book. Alpha Tau Delta was the right hand man to the G. O., selling hats, pennants and pins. Did you notice the servicemen's names outside the office? This was the toilsome work of the Servicemen's Committee -to hunt for names of Davis G. I.'s. This committeels plan was to make a permanent plaque honoring Davis boys who fought in World War H. Did you notice that added charm of our girls this past year? That was the result of our newest club, Peter Pan. They met with Miss Sherman, learning correct posture, voice and manners. Maybe this accounts for the boys having been taken in by that "extra umph" demonstrated by these girlsl H Did you notice how the Publicity Committee excelled in keeping the halls decorated with art, and prize photography? It was through their originality that UDAVYM was plastered throughout the building. They publicized dances, games and the Teen-Town drive with a multitude of gay posters, cheer- ing up the halls. Well, did you ever notice? PETER PAN CLUB IDENTIFICATION Qbortomj Rofw I: D. Feigert, H. Mayer, R. Barrus, Rofw 2: A. Buck, Mrs. Redka, P. Love, N. Zittel, Row 3: L. Ruffalo, Smilo, I. Berman G. O. PUBLICITY COMMITTEE 'K Y REcEP'r1oN1sTs SERVICE CLUB FUTURE SECRETARIES As one entered the center of the building, a gorgeous receptionist was waiting to greet one and escort one to his destination. This explains why all our visiting service- men preferred to use the center entrance. Then as one stepped into the ofhce, another handsome girl was seated outside Mr. Childs, ofhce regulating traffic and acting as general secretary. It was she who signed passes Clegally of coursel and who ran errands. The receptionists are chosen each year by hlr. Childs for their good looks, capability, and efficiency. They have a great deal of fun, for they have an opportunity to meet people, display their personality Qespecially to some returning vet J, and at the same time are rendering a worthwhile service to the School. On onels many trips to the office one undoubtedly no- ticed those student secretaries working efficiently to aid the regular secretarial staff. This was, in action, the Ser- vice Club whose members willingly devo-ted a period a day to ease the many office burdens. They sorted mail, helped with the attendance, did filing, delivered messages and really made the works Utickn. VVhat would the of- fice ever do without these unselfish, dependable Hsecre- tariesni They were really on the ball! DAVISAIDES, Many is the time when a new, trembling sophomore wanted to seek advice from someone other than a teacher who might frighten him out of existence. Who was right there to answer the questions and give aid to a bewildered newcomer? Of course it was the Home Room Advisers. A girl has been chosen from each home room to act as a guide and counselor to green sophomores who have been overwhelmed by the intricate system of Davis. Une of the Hrst bits of advice a Home Room Adviser gives is to let the new girl know exactly where the boys, locker room is, and to tell her not to proceed to the lunchroom by 11 certain stairway, no matter how many boys tell her that it is the only wayl These helpful ad- visers also sponsor a semi-annual dinner to get the girls acquainted with one another. Any sophomore will tell you that the Home Room Advisers are indispensable! A representative group con- IDENTIFICATION fupper lefrj Rolw I: S. Levitt, D. VVilkins, C. Kelly, S. Hirshberg, M.

Lislier lVIARsHALs HE PROFITS WHO SERVES Home Room 116 was unique, being the only home room in Davis composed of only boys. Even the home room teacher, Mr. Doyle, upheld this male monopoly. This elite group, the Boy Marshals, was elected by the students and faculty and represented the leaders of the school, c'Davis, Hnestf, Some of the routine services performed hy the Marshals included regulation of traf- fic in the halls, collection of attendance cards, delivering library passes to the study hall teachers, and supervision of the lunch rooms and locker rooms. They also sold tickets at sports events, helped out in the of- fice, and assisted in volunteer Work, in school and out. By setting a good example, they inspired the cooperation of the rest of the school. MOST BEST That smiling lass who directed you to your seat in as- sembly so courteously and efficiently was a member of the Girl Marshals. She represented a body of girls who did much more to serve Davis than just standing around looking prettyl The innumerable small tasks that the Girl Marshals performed were essential to the eHicient operation of the school. For instance, they helped super- vise the lunchrooms and turned the lights Off in the halls after classes had passed. VVhenever some minor job had to be done, Miss Lewis's Girl Marshals were there to help out. One of the foremost of the groups that were constantly working to make your school better for you was the School Interests Committee. The hard-working ten mem- bers prepared the ground for action by the G. O. and had the power to initiate legislation in the G. 0. bearing on the interests of the school. Some of the many school ser- vices and improvements that had their origin during meetings of the School Interests Committee included off- ering a simplification and revising of the G. O. Constitu- tion, working on a G. O. Handbook to be distributed to all sophomores, purchasing a large radio for the school, and preparing a revised list of all the clubs in the school, in addition to passing on all non-athletic honor awards. Miss Young guided this helpful group, whose aim was to improve our school at every opportunity. Among the less heralded standing committees of the G. O. was the small but essential School Publications Committee. This group of five students, supervised by Miss Brower, was consulted on all proposed appropria- tions for the "Hi-News", decided on any changes from the standard format of the publication that was proposed by the editor, and passed on honor awards for the editors Of the Hi-News and Maroon and White.

A. meeting was held in Mount Vernon, one heard the drums, and other instruments, doing their best. The Band Parade and Band Concert echoed their wonders to the world, and when Dick Sagman and Abra- ham Greenbaum began to play the flute T well, it was known far and wide. The Band was behind all the football players and with them came the twirlers, who had a hard time keeping their skirts down on those windy days - their sparkling batons twirling, and, at the head of the procession, the Sonnenblick twins, executing those tricky stepsl rliVVIRLEl1S ATH CHARMS Cultural music at Davis came Lllldel' the capable direc- tion of Mr. Nielsen. Even the most unmusical of us sat up and took notice when the choir went through the strains of the "Lord's Prayer" at our regular assemblies. They really made 'lbeautiful music", especially at the im- pressive Christmas assembly. Stop all workl Forget all testsl - That's the cry that rang out when Mr. Nielsen's clarinets and violins began their practice twice a Week in the auditorium. During the term Rosemary DeBruyn tried to keep the eyes of the orchestra on their music as she conducted the struggling musicians. The highest point was reached however, when the graduates marched down to re- ceive their diplomas while the band played the "Re-cessional" at the -lune Commencement. BAND When the budget had to be fixed and the musical arrange- ments planned at the Davis mus- icals, the G. O.

As you turn the pages, they all appear very similar - and yet, behind the eager expectancy of each smile, there are so many different plans, and dreams, and hopes. lf only we could furnish a crystal ball with every book, to help you visualize each graduate as he, in all the optimism of youth, sees himself. But perhaps each mother's heart is that crystal ball, each dadls plan a door to the future. And so, may we urge you, as you leaf through the pages of this "Maroon and VVhite" to pause just a bit and give careful considera- tion to the eager faces upturned to you. Theirs will be the task of furthering the cause of country and God, theirs will be the burden of preserving civilization, and from their ranks must come the future champions of the persecuted. They will be the doctors, the nurses, the statesmen, and the businessmen, - the very essence of the America of the future. Already some have shown their capabilities as leaders. Anton Popper, June Foster, George King and Anna Vasiliou, for instance, head the January graduating class as president, vice-president, sec- retary and treasurer respectively. Four other students were chosen to represent over three hundred or more ,lune graduates as president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, Richard Sagman, -lean XVil- son, hflitchell Rabbino, and Lorraine Alper. Others, too, have led their classes, their clubs, their friends during their school years. Now they are all leaving to try their hand at leading the world out of the chaotic condition it is now in. They seem older and more serious, now, Adon't they? You, who have yet to reach the ultimate goal they have already attained, must look up to them, admire them, and you, who have faced life, must pity their trust, and be thankful for their strength and youth, for you have trained them and have led them, and now the task, with all its bitter disappointment and heartwarming success, is theirs. There is much pain - and joy - stored for them in life, and many times will they wish to be children again-. VVe are truly grateful for your guidance and trust. Now, as you turn the pages, feel proud of your children, who are now grown. VV: will sincerely endeavor to merit the confidence of America and you-.
