Lifting high her walls of might. Pillar to our aims she rises. Symbol of the “Truth and “Right Thus our Alma Mater strengthens Those ambitious to succeed; Gives each one her watchful guidance, Stressing “Thought before the Deed.'’ As we enter life’s great highway, Happy memories fill the heart; Bonds of loyal friendships hold us That we may not drift apart. Out beyond the dim horizon Lies the goal for which we strive; Heart and soul are bent upon it. Keeping our ideals alive. Spacious walls which long have taught us Love of beauty that God made: Send us forth, now, ivith your blessing. Faithful to foundations laid. Betty H.

Though respectful of tradition, the class has introduced a number of innovations. Every project undertaken has been executed with good will and sincere effort. Throughout the four years play has gone hand in hand with work, and the result has been a happy blending of strenuous effort and good times. In the freshman year only a small number of the present class had yet entered the school, but in this group were many who were destined to be leaders in future school years. Most of us commenced our high school career as sophomores. This was a period of acclimation, but also one of very marked activity. Many of our boys were on the varsity teams, and one of our sturdy athletes was elected to captain next year’s football team. In the interclass debate, our team came out victorious in the finals, scoring a defeat over the seniors of that year. We presented a play before the school, entitled “Thank You, Doctor”, which was enthusiastically received. A class party was held, a forerunner of the elabor- ate affairs to follow in the last two years. Generous contributions from the treasury were made to the Vermont flood sufferers, and to the school scholar- ship fund. Installed as Juniors, and fully aware of our responsibilities, we set about making a good year. We had gained a reputation by the spirit and activity of our sophomore year, a reputation which we were intent upon maintaining. Again our boys and girls made envious records in athletics. In our Junior Prom, a gay night of music and laughter, given in honor of the Alumni, we established a new bond of friendship with the seniors by inviting them to attend. This act of generosity has now been firmly enrooted in school tradi- tion. An unusually clever and entertaining assembly program was presented be:ore the school. It consisted of a picked chorus of boys who sang well- known college songs, representing a Columbia reunion, while at the same time vivid tableaux illustrating the songs were enacted by other class members. In preceding years the junior class had given annually a public show called the Junior Vaudeville. When our turn came to present the accustomed entertainment, we took it upon ourselves to alter another school tradition and thus called our show “Junior Night”, an appellation which has continued to be used. And now our Senior year! Our play, given at Thanksgiving time, entitled “Merton of the Movies”, was a creditable success. The Senior Ban- quet, held in March, was the occasion of good fellowship and merriment, where class talent was much in evidence, and class spirit soared high. Then through the spring months, with members on the teams, we have sped rapidly to the close of our high school career, on to our goal, Class Night and Commencement! As we pause upon the threshold of our Alma Mater, we cast back a last, long, lingering glance. We have had a happy time, and as we say good-bye we pledge ourselves to be ever worthy of the ideals Columbia has instilled in us.

The untiring efforts of our dramatic coach. Miss Helen Dull, gave charm and polish to the production. Playing a very important lead in the comedy, Clare Buehler as the slightly hard, slightly cynical, but entirely witty Miss Montague, made a lasting impression on her audience. She knows all the heart-breaks of the trade, a little of the joy of success, and all the tricks in the very tricky game of love. As a direct foil for this young lady’s modern quick-wittedness is Merton, portrayed by Isaac Rodman, Jr., who presented an understanding interpretation of a difficult role. From the home town which Merton has cast aside for the glamour of the movie world, comes Mr. Gashwiler, friend and ally of Merton, ably portrayed by Robert Bates. Among Merton’s other home-town friends are Tessie Kearns, an aspiring sweetheart and rather pathetic figure, played by Ruth Levinger, and Elmer Huff, Merton’s one-time country store adviser and friend, portrayed with beautiful scorn by Harry Gilmore. In the Hollywood studio we find the casting-director, the first of the young actor’s new friends, Dorothy Sauer; the breezy, violent, and wholly inconsistent director, Sigmund Rosenblatt. Cecil Lichtman; and John Hirschberger. the vigorous “yes-man” to Mr. Rosenblatt. To add a touch of forgivable conceit and subtle humor there was Leonard Slutz as the “illustrious” actor, and father of Miss Montague. There was the inevitable land-lady made sympa- thetic by Marjorie Felderman and Mr. Walberg, the smooth and solicitous production manager, played by Woodward McDowell. Then there were less showy but equally important parts by Ernest Easton as Jeff Baird, the “Comedy King;” Penelope Renton as an extra girl; Porter Horn as pro- ducer of emotion-raising music; Stanley Ellison as cameraman; Harry Rankin as star of Jeff Baird Comedies: Elizabeth K. Clark, the director's wife, and actress; and Jeanette Conroy as her maid.

Jr. Sixty-two JUNIOR CLASS COUNCIL OFFICERS OF CLASS HOME ROOM REPRESENTATIVES Norman Beers Lewellyn Collings William Dennis William Hooke Virginia King Drew Middleton John Morrison Bertram Tower William Smoot Roger Windsor President Donald Kepler Vice-President Janet Brewster Secretary Else Ashwell Treasurer William Bamert This y r the Jun’or Class has followed the trend toward the new and the effluent by founding the Junior Council. This clan enables the class to manage business more efficiently. It not only facilitates govern- ment but is more democratic. Always before a class meeting is held, the Junior Council meets to discuss the plans for the meeting and important prob- lems that must be worked out. Not only this, but the Council also works as a nominating committee, thereby reducing waste of time and indecision in class meetings. Another point that has made this system important to the Junior Class is that when plans of any sort had to be necessarily rushed, the Council, with the advice of the sponsor, Miss Carley. went ahead and did it, making it unnecessary to wait for a class meeting. A representative from each junior home room is made a member of the Council, thereby insuring thorough representation. Sixty-four THE JUNIOR PROM Gayly festooned and beribboned, the gym took on the appearance of a Spanish patio for the annual Junior Prom, held on the fourteenth of December. With the school colors, red and black, predominating, the gym presented an attractive spectacle for the grand march, and shortly after, the many dancers started whirling about the floor to the lilting music of Howard Irving and his Rythm Kings. Under the watchful eyes of Miss Carley, Junior Class Guide, joy reigned uncon- fined until midnight. During the course of the evening, charming Rosetta Bocchicchio sang La Palona in its native tongue, thereby fas- cinating her listeners. Later the floor was turned over to Nina Bocchicchio and Max De Guevera, who, with grace rarely seen off Broadway, presented an uncommonly fine exhibition of the tango. Arrayed in native costumes. Nina and Max carried us in fancy back to the home of this graceful dance. A “sport” and “lucky” number dance served to add greatly to the enjoy- ment of an evening already remarked by all as having been one of the most pleasant ever witnessed at Columbia. JUNIOR NIGHT A brilliant performance, suggesting the professional in its finesse, cele- brated the annual showing of Junior Night. The opening scene was really inspiring in its pep and polish and we were moved by it to think of a Broadway musical comedy. It appeared under the appropriate name of “Columbia Capers and was exactly what that name suggests. Following this, there was a lovely naive Chinese playlet, the “Romance of the Willow Pattern.” It was an amusing little thing depicting the lives of the people from the well-known Chinaware. “The Willow Pattern.” The staging was beautifully done, the background being almost an exact replica of the pattern fivom which it was copied. The next offering deserves very special credit. It was a fine and success- ful effort on the part of the coach, Miss Helen Duff, and the cast, to portray in an intelligent way nine scenes from Romeo and Juliet. The scenery deserves a word all to itself; it was the beautiful result of many hard hours of labor and it cast the pleasing illusion over the audience that they were being entertained on Broadway. The last event was a humorous one-act play entitled “The Flattering Word.” It was an amusing farce depicting the difficulties of a struggling young actor under unusual circumstances in a pious household, trying to win them over to his way of thinking.

On the whole it has been found very successful, due partly to the whole-hearted support it received. The plan is this—that the class shall be governed by the officers with the aid of a nominating committee and class meetings. The duties of the nominating committee are to appoint all members of standing committees and to nominate officers and chairmen and submit these nominations to the class. Added nominations for officers and chairmen can be made by “any Sophomore who appears before the nominating committee in person to present the nominees' credentials together with a petition signed by ten per cent, of the class.” As a result of this plan a great deal of inefficiency experienced in meetings of large classes is avoided. This class has hopes of carrying out this plan next year and manag- ing so that the Junior Council of the Junior Class and the nominating com- mittee will be one body. If this plan is as successful as all past ventures of the Sophomores there will be very little in it with which fault can be found. With the advent of spring, the Sophomores once more surprised us with a decided departure from an old Columbia tradition. It is not in a destructive but constructive way in which they have gone about it. Fearless and confi- dent, showing true pioneer spirit, the Sophomores have originated a new form of entertainment, what might be termed Sophomore Day. This show, if following classes will use it as a precedent, is charmingly comprised of a one-act play, singing and dancing novelties, and guess what? an orchestra all their own. This, instead of being presented publicly, is given as an assem- bly program. The Bible is read by a Sophomore, the color guard and bearer are Sophomores, and it is altogether a novel and intriguing idea. This new but enthusiastic class has shown, not only remarkable origi- nality, but also wonderful co-operative ability and desire to join in school activities. Some figures drawn up with the aid of the class sponsor show some quite remarkable facts. In the following statistics will be clearly seen the whole-hearted enthusiasm which the Sophomores have shown. Aprroximately 86 per cent, of the class participated in one or more school activity (excluding Sophomore Day). In music organizations: Band 5; Orchestra 25; Glee Club 34; Chorus 13.

Sixty-seven POST GRADUATES President Secretary George Badenoch Margaret Nichols Representative on Assembly Committee John Bosshart MEMBERS William Grant Harold Beattie Albert George Joseph Holsinger Edward Earl Austin McMan John Hicks Alfred Mutchler Bernice Patrick Paul Grierson Katherine Stanley Jack Kaufman Doris Rolfe The P. G.'s presentation at the annual Thanksgiving Assembly was a hilarious riot—a burlesque on a funeral—not generally a pleasant sub- ject, but what they did to it! A coffin was somberly carried down the aisle by grotesque pall-bearers clad in white flannels, black shirts, and red suspenders. The girls of the class were tragic indeed. Weeping and wailing, they were perfect mourners (we suspected, however, surreptitious giggles behind those veils). The crowning moment in mirth and suspense was when the coffin was pried open, and lo! a corpse designed in groceries! Just before Christmas this same class joyfully gathered together about one hundred members from the classes of '28 and '29 and had a gay reunion. Music, speeches, holiday festivity, and best of all. the meeting of old friends, helped make a success of the happy party. In April a play done in the best P. G. style was presented in assembly to the delight of the entire audience. The heroine was gracefully played by Bernice Patrick and the hero nobly done by Paul Grierson. Sixty-eight THE STUDENT COUNCIL PLEDGE: I, a member of the Student Council of Columbia High School, do pledge myself to support the rules and regulations of this school, to fur- ther the spirit of Columbia, and to help all the members of the school to become sturdy, righteous citizens inspired by the ideal of unselfish service.

Seventy-one THE COLUMBIAN VOL. I COLUMBTa HIGH SCHOOL NO i Staff Sees Daily Edited In Visit To N. Y. Times On December 6, some 24 members of the Columbian Staff journeyed by bus and ankle express to the Times Build- ing in New York to see how a big newspaper is managed from the time the reporter starts to find the news un- til the newsboys begin selling it in a huge 32-page newspaper. High spots of the tour were the top floor, the high speed elevators, the un- canny purple lights in the composing room, and the famous chair in which all celebrities, including Lindy and the Prince of Wales, have sat. After the inspection of the building, the party trooped to a near-by Childs and appeased the enormous appetites gained by the two-mile tour. Then, after viewing the movies at the Para- mount, the weary young journalists re- turned home and plunged into bed, dreaming that it was raining linotype machines and snowing proof sheets. Columbian Entertains Northern N. J. Press Association For the first time in its history the Columbian was host this year at the fall convention of the Northern New Jer- sey Scholastic Press Association, an as- sociation composed of the representa- tives from 38 high schools. Features of the convention were ad- dresses by Mr. Royal Davis, editorial writer of the New York Evening Post, our Eugene Farrell, advertising man- ager of the Newark News, and Mr. Howard Freeman, sports cartoonist of the Newark News. The guests were further entertained by a short play, The Ghost of Jerry Bundler”, pre- sented by the Parnassian, by an exhibit of school publications in the boys’ gym, and by a banquet and dance in the eve- ning. About 250 delegates attended. Columbian Wins Honors In National Contest The Columbian was one of several school papers carrying off place honors this year at the national contest, spon- sored by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association at Columbia University. The names of the prize-winning news- papers were announced at the annual convention held by the Association in New York last March. About 700 pub- lications were entered in the contest, which rated the periodicals in classes according to the size of the student body in the various schools. The Co- lumbian was rated among Class B schools, since it represents a student body numbering less than 1500. Delegates from the Columbian were present at the Convention, which was attended by 1400 delegates from all over the country. They brought back many valuable suggestions for the im- provement of the Columbian another year. Special Issues Are Tabloid Scandal Sheet And Foot- ball Number Eight pages of real live football news liberally bedecked with cartoons and pictures formed that sensational offer- ing of the Columbian this year, appro- priately dubbed The Football Issue. In true Sunday supplement style on the first and last pages were depicted in rotogravure the pictures of the team and its satellites: the band, the coaches, and even the field house. The news it- self consisted of an extensive review of the season’s activities, amusing inter- views, and sanguine prognostications on the outcome of the Thanksgiving Day game. And the way the dirt was dished out in the Tabloid Issue, published April 1, was enough to satisfy any sewing cir- cle advocate. THE MIRROR STAFF Editor-in-chief.

Seventy-four PARNASSIAN SOCIETY (Ci The Parnassian Society began another of its active and successful sea- sons with the annual Hallowe'en dance. The school dance band made its bow to the dancing public at this affair and contributed to the gen- eral liveliness of the party. Shortly after the dance, the school thrilled to the acting of the “Ghost of Jerry Bundler,” prepared under Miss Memory’s able direction. This play was enjoyed also by the delegates to the Press Conference at Columbia. At Christmas time, “The Loveliest Thing,” by Pertwee, was rehearsed under the direction of Miss Murphy and given in assembly. It presented, in a new way, just what a little real Christmas spirit can do. The most important presentation of the Parnassian, the group of one-act plays offered as public entertainment, took place in February. Of the four plays, two were coached by students and two by faculty coaches. Clare Buehler and Bob Bates coached “Grand Cham’s Diamond” and “Outclassed,” while Miss Memory and Miss Murphy coached “Wurzel Flummery” and “Jazz and Minuet” respectively. The aim of the Parnassian Society is to encourage and sponsor dramatic, oratorical, and musical endeavor. Applicants for admission must try out in one of these fields. The club is entertained at its meetings by musical pro- grams. debates, and short plays given by its own talent. Seventy-five CREATIVE WHITING CLUB About a year ago. in response to student request, the Creative Writing Club was formed with the purpose of giving to interested and qualified students an opportunity to gain greater inspiration and skill in cre- ative writing. The club offers not only opportunity to talented members, but also encouragement to those less confident. Everyone is asked to contribute to the programs presented in the monthly meetings. Students are encouraged to read their own work, and to dramatize with the help of other members their original plays. Although all of the contributions submitted each month cannot be read, the program committee endeavors to choose work of varying quality so that the constructive criticisms made may be as helpful as possible. At special meetings the technique of various types of writing is studied. Occasionally, people who do professional writing are invited to present to the club what they have found to be the most helpful principles in literary craftsmanship, and also to give the members the benefit of professional criti- cism. Although the members write primarily for the pleasure of self-expres- sion, it is the ultimate aim of the club to publish an anthology containing work of outstanding merit. Seventy-six IE CERCLE FRANCAIS The French Club, organized with the idea of giving students of French a chance to put their knowledge to practical use. has gradually enlarged its activities to include additional features. On a late Autumn afternoon, an enjoyable French picnic was held at Cherry Lane. The annual dance brought Columbia’s numerous dancers to the gym, where the school dance orchestra dispensed theme songs in the modern style. Later in the year, the school was given an opportunity to attend a typical French fair. Here customers received refreshments, served in the cafe style, in return for French currency. This fair is an annual pre- sentation of the club. Special features, musical and dramatic, mark the meetings of the group. The club has always been instrumental in bringing two most interesting assembly programs to Columbia. Early in the year, Professor Morize of Harvard spoke to us on the differences between French and American psychology. His enjoyable talk was interspersed with campus anecdotes and humorous incidents. In January, the student body was entertained with the comedy “La Faim Est Un Grand Inventeur” in which two American soldiers have a difficult time obtaining something to eat. The year was a success in every line of endeavor. Seventy-seven DER DEUTSCHE VEREIW The interesting and varied programs given by its members have made the third year of the German Club the most successful year in its history. The year was successfully opened with a “Kaffee Klatsch.” New acquaint- ances were made, and delicious German coffee cakes were served. At one meeting the club had the good fortune of being addressed by Dr. Ludwig Oberndorf, a graduate of the University of Heidelberg. Dr. Obern- dorf’s topic was “German Patriots in America.” At other meetings talks were given by the members, German games were played, and German songs were sung. The most ambitious program of the year, however, was the one pre- sented in the assembly. A play, Karl hat Zahnschmerzen,” was given, and a group of boys, the “Wandervogel,” charmed the audience with German folk songs. This was the first time in the history of Columbia High School that a German play was enacted before the school. The members of the Verein feel that they have been fully repaid for anything which the club may have asked of them. Not only have they obtained a closer view of German customs and ideas, but they have also added a link to the ever-growing chain of international good-will. Seventy-eight THE SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club deals with most of the branches of science. Its pur- pose is to further interest among the pupils in some branch of this fasci- nating subject. Each year the club endeavors to present two programs in the assembly. This year the first program presented Mr. William Nattis of the Edison Light- ing Institute. Mr. Nattis spoke on “The Incandescent Lamp,” and illustrated his talk with several slides. At a later date, Mr. Louis Williams astonished the assembly with demonstrations of the potentialities of electricity and magnetism. Both programs were immensely enjoyed by the students of Columbia. The club meetings also produced many varied and unusual experiments. Demonstrations were given on the production of rayon, on a steam engine which had run twelve hours without stopping, and on high voltage electricity. At one meeting experiments with a photo-voltaic cell, an instrument which is very sensitive to light, were performed. The X-ray and motion pictures were other topics of discussion and experimentation; also an explanation was given of the electrification plans of the Lackawanna Railroad. The members of the Science Club have learned many interesting and instructive facts from these meetings. It is the sincere wish of the organiza- tion to further a real interest in the alluring field of science. Seventy-nine TIIE ART CLUB The purpose of the Art Club is to develop an interest in art. and to present an opportunity for pupils taking art to extend their talent along new and practical lines, as well as to develop creative ability. The Art Club was created to satisfy the demand of many students who wished to gather at weekly meetings and discuss and attempt things of an artistic nature. In this the club has been most successful, and, at the end of its first year, it stands as one of the leading clubs in the school. At each meeting a different type of art has been discussed and attempted. At one of these a costume party was given. The members attempted car- toons, caricatures, and silhouettes. Masks were studied and made. Soap carving was done. Color schemes for tables and artistic arrangement of flowers were studied and illustrated. Puppets were also made. One of the most interesting gatherings of the year was a sketching trip, followed by a a picnic supper. As may be seen, the club dipped deeply into practical as well as ornamental art. Its members received a wealth of information in both fields, and also exercised their creative ability by reproducing many things. The Art Club is to be congratulated on its fine showing. All signs indicate a prosperous future and a successful achievement of its aims. A' Eighty THE AVIATION CLUB The Aviation Club is one of the more recently organized clubs in Colum- bia High School. It was established because with the tremendous growth of aviation in the last few years many students are turning to aviation for a bright and prosperous future. The club functions with the purpose of turning out our aeronautically inclined graduates with a general knowledge of the fundamental principles of flight. The club is divided into three sections, each section taking charge of a meeting and specializing in its particular subject. The sections are as follows: the Motor Section, the Model Section, and the Theory of Flight Section. Under the auspices of the Aviation Club a class is held once a week in navigation. This class, under the instruction of Mr. Powell, has made very favorable progress. The club has also sponsored several trips to flying fields, aircraft factories, and aviation shows. It plans to do more in this line of activity in the future. The initial membership has been increased more than five times and will continue to grow as long as there are flying enthusiasts in the school. The officers of the club are as follows: President, James Curley; Vice- President, William Longley; Secretary, Ruth Heydenrich; treasurer. Edward Heller. Eighty-one The Architecture Club is one of the new organizations, and in this, its first year of existence, it has won a commendable place for itself in Columbia High School. The club was established to foster the interests of students inclined toward architecture, as well as to study home-planning and landscaping. Meetings were held twice a month. One of these bi-monthly meetings was held in the school, where talks were given, and various subjects dis- cussed. At the other meeting, the club visited some buildings under con- struction for the purpose of gaining a practical view of applied architecture. The social activities of the club consisted of a get-together meeting, an outing, and a picnic. As architecture plays such a large part in our civilization, and is ever changing to meet the needs of American life, it seems evident that the Architecture Club should flourish and prosper in Columbia High School. The officers for this year are as follows: Nick Lombardy. President; Edward Monk, Vice-President: George Burr. Secretary; William Bailey, Treasurer.

Enjoying its most successful sea- son since the completion of the new building. Columbia’s foot- ball team came through with six vic- tories out of eight games. The season was marked by a continued rise in power, and climaxed by the defeat of West Orange to the tune of 33-0. Coaches Marvel and Mahnken started the season with nine letter men and a large number of Jayvees from the ’28 squad. At the end of the season they had polished off four men who were nominated as All-State candidates. Pat Stark made the official first team, and Bob Sickley, Henry Allen, and Ken Sandback were given honor- able mention. Almost every member of the team was mentioned on one selection or another. The first game of the season was lost to Red Bank, 7-6, because of an offside penalty on the play for the point after the touchdown. Captain Sickley was on the bench with a bad knee, and the line inside the ends was inexperi- enced. The following week the team traveled to Nutlejy and lost a hard-fought game, 25-6. Incidentally, Nutley finished in a tie for t ie State Championship, and Columbia was the only school to score against her. Not discouraged by this defeat, the Columbia team developed itself into the powerful machine which smeared East Orange the next week by a 6-0 score; and it was a bigger victory than the tally indicates, for the opponents were completely bewildered during three quarters of the game. By this time the team had really found its stride. Morristown was next upset 12-6, and then Orange 19-6. When New Brunswick’s team landed on Underhill Field, they found no haven of rest. Bob Sickley s work was instrumental in handing them a harsh 27-6 beating which neither they nor we shall forget (but for different reasons!). Plainfield won’t try any more practical jokes now that we put her out of the state title. After taking Columbia on “to lighten her schedule,” Plain- field lost what might have been a 6-6 tie when Henny Allen saved the most hard-fought and exciting game by kicking Columbia to a 7-6 victory. Finally, Columbia's ancient rivals loomed on the scene for the season’s last game. It was a grand finish with Columbia on the long end of a 33-0 score. With four letter men returning, and with that Jayvee team, which should have the mythical Second Team Championship, to pick from, Columbia should be able next fall to continue the stellar performance of the past season. Eighty-nine rHE JUNIOR VARSITY The Columbia Jayvee Team surpassed the wonderful achievement of the regulars and remained not only undefeated but unscored on. The Steamroller’s performance was made possible by the tireless efforts of Coach Mahnken, and the hard, persistent work of the boys in trying to come up to his expectations. Mr. Mahnken’s enthusiasm was injected into those Steamrollers until they had rolled out all opponents flat. Orange was first to feel the impact of the attack 19-0. Summit, who the year before had beaten us 6-0, was next trampled on 13-0. Then, in quick succession our rivals. West Orange and East Orange, tasted defeat 14-0 and 18-0 respectively. In the next game the Steamrollers, rolling up thirteen points in the first half and six more in the second, trimmed West Side. “On to Central!” was the cry; and Central too went the way of the defeated. 13-0. Finally, Montclair, putting up a very stubborn battle, was turned back 13-0. The boys on this team deserve high commendation. The backs—Ambos, Moore, Sargent, Secor, Wilson, and Zeigler—rolled up 109 points. The line- men—Baker, Beers, Cunningham, Evans, Irish, Lambert, Lange, Lyons, O'Donnell, and La Vecchia—repulsed every attack of their opponents. All but three of these fellows will be back to help that first team next year. We count on them to carry our varsity through the next season with flying colors. Ninety win IIIRIROR ———� i.iun HOCKEY The inauguration of hockey into the calendar of Columbia’s 1930 winter sports proved a great success. Previous to this year Columbia was unofficially represented; this year the sport was officially recognized. Long before signs of ice appeared, the team, coached by Mr. Sterling, formerly of Dartmouth, began to practice on the school parking space. This early practice was continued with much enthusiasm till available ice was found in Summit. With constant practice and a few practice games the team steadily improved. Finally the weather permitted, and we played and defeated Montclair, 5-0. In a return match with this team we played a standstill, 0-0. Summit was then defeated twice, 5-3, and 3-1. The defeat of Plainfield. 2-1, made it four straight victories and one tie. In our last game before the State Tournament, Morristown was turned back, 3-1. Our first opponent in the State Title Match was Morristown. The game was very close, and neither team scored till the third period. We slipped one in first, and then with less than ten seconds of play left Morristown scored. In the second overtime period we finally proved ourselves superior. Dover was defeated in the second round, 4-1. In the semi-finals Montclair was forced to forfeit because of a school ruling. In a very poor game we lost to New Brunswick for the State Championship. Neither team was up to par and our lone score came only in the last minute of play. Ninety-one WIBWTB — VARSITY BASKETBALL Columbia’s 1929-1930 basketball team had a very poor and discouraging season. The season was poor because the team won only three out of six- teen games; and it was discouraging because five games were lost by only one or two points, and two games by only four points. Because of the inability of the team to come through, it was deemed advisable that we stay out of the State Tournament. For the first few games of the season Coach Mahnken used two full teams. He soon saw that this system would not function properly; consequently, before long only one team was in full swing. Several men who had played on one of the first teams were dropped to the second and helped the Jayvees through a succ' ssful season. Although our season as a whole was very unsuccessful, there was some comfort in the fact that East Orange was defeated twice and West Orange once. Furthermore, the student body supported the team whole-heartedly through victory or defeat. Nick Lombardy, Blackwell and Skokna were the leading scorers. The following men from this year’s squad will be back next year, the others being lost by graduation: Blackwell, Kernan, Sandback and Sargent.

Red Bank 29 9 18 Ninety-three VARSITY BASEBALL ith ten veterans heading the list of baseball enthusiasts, Mr. Marvel has high hope of produc- ing another team that will rank high in the Inter- Scholastic ratings. In '27 the team kept a clean slate through a ten-game schedule; in '28 one game of the eleven played was lost; and last year Mr. Marvel experi- mented with a new combination and pulled the team through ten games out of the seventeen played. A won- derful record: thirty-six games won out of forty-four. This year, with only one letter man left, the material is stronger than it has been for the last two years. The pitching staff, headed by Nick Lombardy and Roy Beh, should be strengthened by the acquisition of Lefty Joachim of last year’s successful Jayvee team. In the catching department Dick Tower of the ’28 team will undoubtedly assist Sid De Roner in stopping the offerings of our twirlers. Ray Bischoff will be moved from the outfield in an attempt to strengthen the initial bag, and Chuck Weis will also be endeavoring to get that position. Either Sandbeck or Moore will draw the assignment at second. Kernan and Allen will battle at shortstop, and Rodgers and Volksmuth will fight it out to guard the hot corner. In the outfield Mr. Marvel has Borton, Conradi. and Wadsworth of last year’s nine and possible contenders in Lyons and Ambos. Enthusiasm in baseball has picked up considerably in the last few years, and this year we expect the school spirit to go over the top. This year, because of the enthusiastic following of previous years, thirty-six men will be carried on the squad. The second team's schedule will include twelve games with the usual competition from the Oranges and from the second squads of the best teams in the State. The Alumni open the season at Underhill Field. April 12. Then come two more home games with Summit, April 15. and Westfield. April 17. Bell- vilie’s game is at Bellville, April 22, and we meet Rutherford at Rutherford the following day. Barringer and Orange next come to Underhill Field, April 26 and April 29 respectively. Plainfield opens our May schedule at Plainfield on the second, then we enter the second inter-Orange contest, playing East Orange at home, May 6. The next Barringer game is away on the eighth of May. Two home games follow with Madison and Nutley furnishing the opposition. May 13 and May 17 respectively. Orange is played at Orange on the twentieth, and then we are hosts to New Brunswick on the twenty-fourth. On the twenty-seventh we engage Morristown on their field. Finally, two big games—The Memorial Day game at Bloomfield, and East Orange away on June 2. Ninety-five 191_____ _____________________ VARSITY TRACK. Without waiting to pick his material from the results of the school indoor track meet, Mr. Mahnken entered last year’s veterans in many (of the important scholastic meets. Our boys defeated the outstanding stars of New Jersey and the Eastern United States; the team rated higher in the scoring column than it has ever before. John Condit proved to be the outstanding sensation of the winter season. At the Newark Athletic Club Meet he won the distinction of being the National Interscholastic Champion in the seventy-yard high hurdles. He also con- tributed to the success of the team at the Sunday Call Meet when he and “Swede” Lundgren placed first in the seventy-yard high hurdles and the half-mile respectively. Next on the winter program was the Dickinson Meet. In this the seventy-yard dash and half-mile were won by Don Murray and Wilbur Batt respectively. Murray again placed in the State Meet, taking third in the seventy-yard dash. Many other Columbia boys participated and turned in good performances. The fellows next turned their attention to the school indoor meet. The Seniors galloped away with first place, and were trailed by the Juniors, Sophs, and Frosh. In a close finish Wright broke the tape before GafTrey in the seventy-yard dash; Bob Hummel, a member of last year’s squad, led the field in the quarter-mile; Ray BischofT slipped away from the pack in the mile; and John Hunter proved the big sensation by being the only under- classman to win a first, his victory being in the half-mile. The field events also were won by Seniors. Skokna and Easton were the leaders. Finally, the graduation class romped away from the others in the relay. Following is the schedule of meets: April 9—Outdoor Interclass Meet—Home. April 11.—Red and Black Meet—Home. April 17—Glen Ridge—Home. April 19—Columbia Inter-scholastic Meet—New York City April 26—Penn. Relays—Philadelphia. April 29—Bloomfield and Plainfield—Home. May 6—Westfield—Home. May 10—South Side Invitation—Newark. May 13—West Side—Home. May 17—East Orange—Home. May 22—Rutherford—Home. May 24—Montclair Big Five Meet—Montclair. May 31—State Meet—Newark. Ninety-seven VARSITY TENNIS If a coach is available, tennis will this year be officially recognized by the Boys’ Athletic Association Council as a letter sport. The fellows have expectations of attaining the heights gained by the first-year hockey team. Jim Wiley and Johnnie Stimson, who both played singles last year, are available this year, and they are expected to be the mainstays of the team. Two members of last year’s double teams, Slutz and Anderson, will be trying for positions on the 1930 team. Rod Crowley, Don Fraser, Ducky Gilmore. Harry Lange, and Ray Winan, also intend to try for the team. Manager Cecil Lichtman has arranged this schedule. The season opens with three home games: Thomas Jefferson, April 30; Plainfield, May 5; West Side, May 7. The team then will take the longest trip a Columbia team has ever attempted to play Atlantic City May 10. The crack East Orange team will be met at home on May 12, and at East Orange May 21. The West- field match will be played at home on May 16. Next we will play a team which is fast becoming a regular on our schedules, Plainfield. They will be opposed on their own courts May 23. Barringer and Summit come here on the twenty-sixth and twenty-eighth respectively. Finally, we wind up the season with three games on our opponents' courts—West Side, Barringer and Westfield on the second, fourth and sixth of June respectively. Ninety-eight BOYS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION COUNCIL The Boys’ Athletic Association Council, continuing its achievements of previous years, can well consider this year a success. Its main work was sponsoring intra-mural sports, but it has also sponsored other athletic events. This year tournaments were held not only between classes, but also between home-rooms and gym sections. In the fall, inter-home room touch football games were played, and at the same time a soccer tournament was in progress among the gym classes. During the winter months an inter-class swimming meet and an inter-class basketball league was sponsored. This spring another effort was made to organize class baseball, and tennis tourna- ments were conducted in both the fall and the spring. Indoor and outdoor track meets were also run off with their usual success. Squad teams, com- posed of fellows unable to make the varsity, were inaugurated during football and baseball season. Another achievement of the year was the granting of official recognition to hockey and tennis as letter sports. In previous years both these sports saw action against other schools, but neither had a coach. This year the students showed such enthusiasm for these events that they were given a trial. The results were so successful that two more sports were thus added to Columbia’s athletic calendar. Of no less importance than these objective projects was the B. A. A. Council’s valuable influence towards fostering true “Columbia spirit. Ninety-nine GIRLS' BASKETBALL The girls certainly earned their Basketball letters this year. Captained by Catherine McCabe and coached by Miss Fisher and Miss Southard, the team came through with a good record. The defeats that the girls met fired them with more spirit and enthusiasm to win the next time. Captain McCabe is well known for her spectacular shooting. No matter where she shoots from the ball just naturally drops into the basket. This year we had a girl on the team who had never tried out for Varsity Basketball before—Elsie Ottmueller, and she was a lucky find. By practicing hard she has become a first-rate guard. She was greatly helped by her other guard, Helen Loubet, a member of last year’s team. The speediest girl on the team is our forward, Janet Brewster. She seems to fly at the ball and if she were breathing her last she could still hang on. The centers, Kitty Krietler and Mary Lee Beattie, also deserve applause. Kitty is Janet’s close second for speed. But no team can survive without substitutes, and we owe much of our success to Betty Farrell, Ruth Lowes, and Virginia King. The able management of the team and the loyal support from the students were pro- duced by the hard work of Peg Palmer, and much credit is due her for her helpful endeavors. The most satisfying game was the return game with Roselle Park. We opened the season by a defeat at their hands in their gym, but we closed the season by defeating them on our court. The largest crowd of the season assembled at this game and watched the girls play as they had never played before. With the exception of one substitution, the first team played right through and won by a 22-18 score. During the game the score was very close, making the contest more exciting and harder to win. This was the first year that we had played Roselle Park but will probably not be the last. Roselle Park Columbia 26 Opponents 36 6 Orange 27 Millburn 12 12 12 18 6 Millburn 10 Roselle Park 22 Orange 43 One Hundred One GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Another good year is to be credited to the Girls’ Athletic Association, the organization which managed all business pertaining to the girls’ ath- letics. Because the girls responded with such fine spirit to the G. A. A. drive in the fall, the council managed extremely well with the finances. All the inter-class games were sponsored by the council. In the fall the sophomores were rewarded numerals for winning the inter-class soccer games. The seniors took their revenge during the basketball season by running up extremely high scores. In the spring the council sponsored track, baseball, swimming, and tennis. In tennis the winner received a cup and her opponent a Columbia “C’ This year the council started a new method of awarding the Columbia “C’ giving more girls a chance to win it. The girls who have five sets of numerals now, are also awarded their letters. Numerals are given to members of the winning teams of inter-class sports, semi-finals in tennis, and to partici- pants of the Girls’ Leaders Club. In the spring the council gave a party to the members of the G. A. A. Everyone had a good time and nearly every member attended. The guiding hand for the council is Miss Fischer, and the members wish to thank her for her help. The officers for the 1930 Council were: President. Dorothy Sauer; Vice- President, Miss Henderson; Secretary. Margaret Borden: Treasurer, Mary Lee Beattie. One Hundred Two Htqwer WfARINC A PAIR OF TRUM 3.
