JERRY MELILLO 35 Cutler St. “J” is for Jerry who plays the guitar, He sings and warbles, this gay Lochinvar. “Mr. Mayor!” is the frequent phrase we hear in homeroom, and you can be sure Jerry is within reaching distance. Jerry, as we all know. is the president of the Student Council. We can thank him for his helping hand in the organ- izing of the Hall Patrol. Sale of War Stamps and Bonds, Basketball Team and the Recreation Room. Jerry goes in for all sports and has also served on our unforgetable basketball team. His art work is significant for its streamlined effect. His main ambition is to be in Uncle Sam’s Air Force. JOE MONTAGUE 222 Charlton St. “M” is for Montague as small and quiet as a mouse But when he laughs or speaks he carries the house. “Little Joe” is the name of this fellow, but he’s packed full of jokes and always has a big smile for everyone. The old saying that good things come in small packages is followed out to the letter by Joe. He is one of Miss Howard’s favorite students because of his fine commercial art work, After graduation Joe intends to con- tinue his commercial art work. THOMAS MILLARD 83 Crane St. “M” is for Millard, our funny friend Thomas, At comedy acting, he surely shows promise. The word “quiet” is not in Thomas’ vocab- ulary. Tom is a bright student in his academ- ic work, but most of us envy him most because of his great gift of gab. Tom also is fond of photography and has produced some expert shots. I suppose he’s kept almost as busy as Mr. Lowry, or so he tells us. Right now the “surge of native music has rooted itself in Tom’s blood. Drumming is what we call it, but I hear there‘s another name for it. Alas! Uncle Sam likes Tom almost as much as we do, and is waiting with anxious arms to enfold him. So he leaves his history (which he loves, sez he), his police force, law prac- tise, drums, art and college behind him while he kisses last but not least the hundreds of shapely girls goodbye. LOIS NOLIBOW 2 Osborne Terrace A touch of the orient describes Lois for she is small, clever and sociable. Although she has been a short time with us, she has been taken into the fold and is liked by everyone. Her hopes for the future lie in dress design- ing. Her careful and attractive taste in clothes shows us that her plans will be fulfilled. Dancing, reading and writing to someone across the sea are her favorite hobbies. Lois does her share in the war effort by giving a measure of her time attending Canteen meet- ings. After graduation she plans to visit Cal- ifornia before launching upon her career. Perhaps she will discover another Gold Mine! We sincerely hope she will. Much happiness and success!

PHYLLIS LANGBERG 225 Nye Ave. “P” stands for Phyllis who hardly ever is blue, If yowre feeling low, she'll cheer you up, too. Phyllis is the little chick with the honey colored hair and many bright clothes. We often find her wearing pigtails and toting an armful of books. She is always full of jokes but gets angry with herself when she doesn’t get directions straight. Remember those his- tory memorizations? Phyllis belongs to a cor- respondence club and we often find her speak- ing of Johnny and Tony. We wonder .. . She favors all sports, and doesn’t really like one better than the other, but we know she is very good in Tennis. Phyllis likes the music of Harry James and the King Cole Trio. As yet, her plans for the future are indefinite, but we know she'll be successful. DELFINA MALHEIRO 104 Ferry St. “O” is the last letter of Delfina’s last name, When there’s work to be done she’s always game, Dolly is the class songbird only she hasn’t convinced quite all of us. She sings at the Portuguese Sports Club, and you should hear her come out with a “Souse” American Song. She’s really great. Dolly has a great voice for music and actions to go with it. But we must not forget that she’s here for art and is making out very well. You can usually pick out her work from the rest of the class because she uses a great deal of water color in pastel shades. Dolly enjoys sewing and swimming and hopes to continue her art at college. MARTIN MAKOW 227 Custer Ave. “M” is for Martin, with curly black head. We're still not sure whether he’s living or dead. If you’ve enjoyed the films screened in the Auditorium recently during our lunch periods, you can thank Martin Makow. He is extremely interested in Motion Pictures, and has his own film collection, complete with screen and pro- jector. Besides his work on our school paper, the Drama Club has kept Martin quite busy. With a high scholastic rating, Martin also found time one term to do a very good job of serving on our Student Council. He’ll be graduating soon, and hopes to continue successfully with his Arts. HARRY MARGOLIS 14 Ivy St. “H” is for Harry, not noisy or loud, A hard working member of our basketball crowd! A swell guy and tops in everything he ven- tures is a perfect description of Harry. He has been a faithful member of the basketball team and as he said “enjoyed every minute of it”. One of Harry’s hobbies is photography. He has de- veloped and enlarged many pictures for his classmates, Harry has his own private dark room in his home, and is always anxious to show a few of his female classmates how to develop pie- tures!) Harry enjoys baseball. Harry plans on going to N.Y.U, or if Uncle Sam pages him first, to the Army Air Corps,

HAROLD MOORE “H” stands for Harold, a model pupil, To try and beat him, will sure prove futile. Brains plus ability add up to one of the brightest fellows in the senior class. Harold came to our school with the majority of our class as freshmen in 1942. Since his arrival in the school he has done nothing but make the highest marks in our class and is at the present time President of our class. Harold intends to continue his art training and is getting experience at the present time in a distinguished Newark Printing House. We have no reason to doubt that Harold will be a roaring success in whatever he does. EDITH DE ROSE 256 Walnut St. “D” is for De Rose, Edith by name In dress-designing we hope she'll win fame. A combination of intellect, charm and a certain vigor for the arts and crafts is a real definition of Edie. She has pranced through four years of high school, but we know she has to gallop after entering the office of trea- surer. Among Edie’s many pastimes is the care of children and her ever lasting desire to be a dress designer. She intends to go to college to further her art interest, and we know she'll be a success because of her earn- estness and ability to do so. Here’s wishing her luck. 123 Highland Ave. DOLORES IASCONE “J he 178 Parker St. stands for Iascone, the first name Dolores, She’s a chick little dancer, fancy her in a chorus. This special dish is known to many of us as “Dee”. We often find her sporting the school colors, but she’s in her glory when you give her a radio, good music and a dancing partner. She’s a favorite among us, and you can depend on her to liven up a party. Dee enjoys all out door sports and keeps her figure trim by swim- ming at the Y. If you should ever see her bent over a piece of paper, two out of three times she’s drawing fashion figures. Dee intends to go to night school or college to continue her work in fashion drawing. LOUISE DUCHEK 69 W. Market St. “L” is for Louise of whom there’s a song, And we all know not a word of it is wrong. Attractive, friendly and always happy is the best description of Lou. Her best known char- acteristics are an ever playful laugh and a tend- ency to blush at the least provocation. If by chance you should enter home room a little late, you will hear a mild voice shout, “Get a late slip.” Yes, it’s Louise, our attendance keeper. But getting on to her likes, she loves all sports and thinks Louis Prima’s recordings are just tops. Louise is taking fashion designing, and we all know she'll be a roaring success. So here’s all the luck in the world to a swell girl.
