Maplewood Memoria! Library Maplewood, New Jersey THE HIRECK Published by the Class of 1934 CCLIMCIA HIGH SCHCCL South Orange and Maplewood, New Jersey i?e£ 3733 c. DURAND ROOM FOREWORD FOR a number of years past there has been an established precedent to which the Mirror has closely adhered in regard to its make-up, cost, and features. A short time ago a feeling arose in opposition to this precedent, maintaining that a new Mirror should be printed, the principal feature of which would be reduction of cost. This feeling reached its climax in the decision of this year’s class to reduce the relative cost of the year book and to do away with the unnecessary advertising of former years. It has been the purpose of this staff to strip the Mirror of superfluous detail and feature in order to adhere to a strict economy program, but at the same time to embody the elements characteristic of former annuals and in no way reduce the standard which has always been maintained. Naturally, expensive cuts and drawings have been removed and write-ups have been somewhat re- duced, but the body of the Mirror is the same. The staff hopes that in its presentation of material here it has upheld the character and standards formerly present. Bound by certain limits caused by such a marked price reduction, it is only natural that the Mirror is not as elaborate as it has been, but the staff hopes that it will have the value and will bring the pleasure it should as a reflection of the year’s activities and a souvenir of Columbia High School for future times. Dedication As pupils in Columbia High School we have come into intimate contact with our teachers and administrators. But we are not unaware of that group of men and women—the Board of Education—whose efforts behind the scenes have done so much to make available to us the educational opportunities we have enjoyed. It is the desire of the Class of 1934 to express its gratitude for the work constantly being done for the schools of South Orange and Maplewood by dedicating this issue of the Mirror to the members of the Board of Education.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY «DEG pardon, but what’s that horrible din in our sanctified halls?” That, brother senior, is one of those things—in this instance a type of growth called Sopho- mores, who try to conceal the fact by calling themselves the class of ’34. Nevertheless, during its three years in Columbia, the class of ’34, under the friendly guidance of Miss Camilla Low, distinguished itself as generally competent, and in some fields displayed more than average talent. In the matter of school government its officers held up admirably the proud standards handed down to them by the retiring class. With Jack Hoppock at their head, Dorothy Evans, Betty Britten, and Robert Burns managed the business of the Student Council capably and commendably. Along sports lines the showing of the Senior Class was good, but not exceptional. Perhaps its stronghold was football. As captain, Peter Harrison set a fine example of alertness and fight that characterized the whole team and especially the forward wall, which was almost entirely composed of the old guard.” In other sports, honors had to be shared more with underclassmen, but the seniors boasted two remarkable all-around athletes, Danny Reman and Edmund Jacobi. The highspot on the sports annals of the graduating class was the surprising and gratifying conquest of our respected rival. West Orange, on the gridiron. In the higher accomplishments of art, music, and drama, many seniors stood out as especially talented. Lawrence Redpath, brilliant editor of The Columbian”, demonstrated amazing skill on the accordion, Bette Love and the diminutive Henry Lou on the piano, and Ed Burt on the clarinet. In L. Mutz and Robert Burns the class of ’34 was favored with two extraordinarily gifted artists. Finally, in the bright glare of the footlights several stars appea . The suave Edward Padula, president of the Parnassian, Paul Murphv, Matthew McDermitt, and Edward Burt captured leading masculine roles at one time or another, while Dorothy Kautzman, Ruth Brown, and Virginia Becker proved to be fem- inine Thespians of considerable prowess. The seniors look back with pride on three productions of real merit, the sophomore operetta, Tulip Time in Holland,” the unsurpassable Junior Night of 1933,” and the sparkling senior play The Show-off.” The superb Parnassian play, If I Were King,’ featuring Frederic Reeve and Dorothy Yard in the leads, came as a fitting climax to rare dramatic achievement. We feel that you, Columbia, have done your best for us in school; we shall try to uphold your standards in life. Page Six GRACE H. ADAMS G. A. A.

Page Thirty-jive SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY IN view of the transformations which are now taking place in our national life there is every reason to assume that there will be great changes effected in the existing social order. Let us endeavor to project ourselves into this new era. The first thing that we notice is the fact that Ray Fisch, Columbia’s home-grown politician, has led his Eleanor Blue Shirts on Washington and has become the first dictator of the United States. Let us pause for a moment to inspect this new government. Among the prominent cabinet officials we observe that Bill Richardson has achieved a niche in the Hall of Fame as the first Minister of Propa- ganda. As we proceed to the Treasury Building, we discover that Alfred Birkenmeier, Minister of Finance, is on leave of absence, whereabouts and date of return unknown, (cf. Samuel Insull). Dan Decker has become Minister of the Air (hot and otherwise) and is reported to be making a great success of his new position. But let us take our leave of the world of politics and turn to that of sport. Iron Hard” Ros- berger and Bonecrusher” Heyboer dominate the ranks of the grapplers. Petite” Pete Harrison, Prince- ton Alumnus, is coaching another outstanding Columbia football team and hopes to beat Westfield in the 1950 game. Incidentally, Pete holds down the position of Spanish Instructor. Mary Lou Dull has become the Juliana Cutting of New York Society and you may be sure that those registered on her list are the bluest of the blue bloods. Barbara Dunklin, her bosom companion, has neglected the advice of her friends to open a beauty parlor and has become the Laura Jean Libby of her generation. Eddie Padula has stepped into the shoes of the late David Bdasco and carries the Belasco tradition on admirably—even to the clerical collar. Edward Staley and Ken McClave have become owners and teachers of a private school specializing in the teaching of American History to mentally retarded pupils. Our own Jane Harris has finally completed her intensive study of No Nice Girl Swears” and now conducts an etiquette column in a nation-wide newspaper syndicate. Freddy Reeve is also engaged in newspaper work, having been made Editor-in-Chief of the New York Times.” However, he sometimes loses control of himself and publishes a little volume of verse, the latest of which is entitled Rustic Rustlings.” As our information is somewhat unreliable on this point, we don’t know whether Virginia Becker teaches American History or is an outstanding example of the perfect hausfrau—if you must know, make inquiries of one Ed Burt. Mary Cameron has donned horn-rimmed glasses and has become an extremely efficient secretary in an extremely well-organized business. We even hear rumors that she is to be appointed Minister of Labor. Matt McDermitt is now stationed at Grand Central to announce that the train for Schoharie, Watervliet, Cohoes, Schenectady and all points west is ready to start. A certain classmate of Lois Aitken has forcefully brought to our attention the fact that she has been neglected. In view of this fact, we (be it remembered it is the classmate who speaks) cast one emphatic vote for her to succeed Mary Pickford as America’s Sweetheart. We also understand that Norma Tompkins has won the last Olympic crown and has beaten all of Babe Didrikson’s records. Bill Flowie is trying to dissuade her from a professional athletic career but with little success. Perhaps it would not be amiss at this juncture to indulge in a few idle speculations about how affairs will stand in—say, 1950. Maybe Janet Croot will control her Southern drawl and speak as rapidly as Warren Bohner. In light of her present efforts there is no doubt that Lil” Stevens will snare a helpless male by that time. Lawrence Redpath will at last achieve his lifelong ambition to become a humorist. The reader must remember that the above items are cited only as possibilities—we do not vouch for the veracity of any of them. Page Thirty-seven DOST MUSICAL WITTIEST SENIOR STATISTICS I BEST STUDENTS HOST POPULAR BEST DRESSED BEST ACTORS DONE MOST FOR BEST LOOKING SCHOOL AND HOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED HOST ATHLETIC CLASS OF 1934 BIGGEST FLIRTS SENIOR PLAY, THE SHOW-OFF ON Saturday evening, November 25, the curtain rose upon the gay, pea-green, rose-dotted room of the Fisher family in Philadelphia. The domesticity of the first few moments was suddenly pierced by the boisterous laugh of the ostentatious hero, Aubrey Piper, who had a most engaging faculty of talking and whose pride was in his button-hole. This fastidious gentleman from the city (two little rooms over the Dago barber) had talked his way into Amy’s heart, but met his Waterloo when trying to compete with Ma Fisher’s tongue. ''Carnation Charlie” was but a big mouth to her. Despite the efforts and warnings of her mother and her sister Clara, Amy decided to make her bed and lie in it.” But things did not go so well with the married couple. Aubrey, without a license, and driving a borrowed automobile, claimed he was run into by a trolley car and a jay-walking police- man who tried to beat him to the corner. Accompanying this, Pa Fisher died of a stroke, and the family was in a chaotic condition. But with the startling success of brother Joe’s invention the last curtain fell upon a reconciliated family. Ruth Brown as Ma Fisher gave a splendid performance. Edward Burt as Aubrey, Virginia Becker as Amy, and Dorothy Kautzman as Clara, contributed admirably, as did the remainder of the cast, which included: Lawrence Redpath as Frank Hyland; Paul Murphy as Mr. Fisher; John Lane as Joe; Lloyd Gruman as Mr. Gill; and William Richardson as Mr. Rogers. The various committees assisting in advertising, production, tickets, and construction, were headed by: Dan Decker, Jane Harris, Mary Cameron, Heath Wakellee, Edward Colie, William Larson, Flor- ence Hardgrove, Lois Aitken, Betty Baker, Lambert Chapin, Ralph Slutz, and Edward Padula. Page Thirty-nine THE WILL OF THE CLASS OF 1934 WE, the class of 1934, being in as good mental condition as usual, and in much better temper than usual, do hereby make this, our last will and testament. We have no specific directions to leave concerning our funeral, but we do hope you will come prepared to praise as well as to bury us, forgetting what trifling faults may have been ours and remem- bering only our manifold and remarkable virtues. And in this manner do we dispose of our possessions: We give and bequeath, freely and without reservations and stipulations, to the junior class, our rightful heirs, our most important and valuable properties, namely, our self-satisfaction, our importance, and our wisdom. We also leave the junior class our good luck. It made us what we are today, and it should satisfy them. In addition to this, all our privileges and rights as seniors in class- room and assembly will revert to them, as well as any notebooks, pencils, fountain pens, collections of O. K.’s, or unfinished business which we have left behind. To the young and unsophisticated incoming sophomores we leave a little book entitled, How to Tell the Teachers,” a pamphlet compiled by us after three years of arduous study. It will be noticed this book is not what to tell the teachers, but how. It contains specific information as to which teachers can be bluffed, which are easy and which are hard to please, and those whom it is impossible to please. It tells who your favorite authors must be to stand well with each English teacher, which history teacher is especially fond of Napoleon, and what questions to ask to make various teachers forget the lesson and be interesting. This information in invaluable to those only wishing to make high grades. It will be noticed that, although we have left bequests to the junior class, soon to be seniors, and to those who will in the fall become sophomores, we have made no mention of the present sophomore class which will be known as the junior class in a few months. We have left them nothing, because by that time their self-valuation will have attained such heights that nothing in our possession would be re- garded by them as worthy their distinction. ITEM: To our dear old school building iteslf, we leave the peaceful quiet caused by our absence, and any apple cores, wads of gum, or crumpled notes we may have left about. ITEM: To Miss Low, our class guide, we give and bequeath a sense of relief that we have at last been graduated, pleasant memories of our three years together, and a feeling of pride in any great deeds or noteworthy achievements that our future may contain, realizing that such glories, if any, will owe much to her example and counsel. ITEM: We give and bequeath to Mr. Threlkeld and the teachers our very kindest regards and our sincere gratitude for their unfailing kindness and aid. ITEM: To the history of Columbia Hi eh School we bequeath our illustrious deeds and our names as candidates for the Hall of Fame. ITEM: To the glee clubs and the orchestra we give our ability to watch the leader and the audi- ence at the same time. We may have lost a measure or skipped a beat in the music occasionally, but we never missed anything—or anybody—in the audience. ITEM: To the dramatic clubs we present our varied and surprising talent—a talent that could in- terpret a character with so much originality that its own author wouldn’t know it. ITEM: To the junior class we give, reluctantly but of necessity, our mantle of dignity. We realize that the class can never fill it, but, since it is expected of them, our advice is, Grin and wear it.” Besides these bequests, we leave our best wishes to any and all who may desire them. Finally, we do hereby name and appoint as the sole executor of this, our last will and testament, the clock in the tower. Whether or not it is carried out depends on time alone. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, we, the class of 1934, the testator, have set our hand and seal on this twenty-first day of June in the year of our Lord, MCMXXXIV. THE CLASS OF 1934. Sworn and subscribed to before me this twenty-first day of June, in the year of our Lord, MCMXXXIV. CORINNE BLUM, Legal Adviser to the Class of ’34. ITEM: ITEM: ITEM: Page Forty I Organizations and ACTIVITIES SCHOOL COUNCIL SOME years ago a committee of leaders in the various sports and activities met to find means of im- proving the assemblies. That committee has developed until today we have a council composed of one representative from each homeroom and the chairmen of the standing committees. This council participates in the control of student activities to the extent that its members are willing and able to do so, and as long as they maintain a high standard of achievement. The value of the council depends largely on the efficiency of the standing committees. P. G. CLASS THE post graduate class of this year is the largest in the history of Columbia. The activities of the P. G. class are necessarily somewhat limited, but it sponsored three assembly programs: a pep as- sembly, Thanksgiving program, and the alumni banquet. The pep assembly, in which the band played and pep songs were sung, was given just before the West Orange game. The Thanksgiving assembly demonstrated the manner in which the home room donations kept the big bad wolf” from the doors of the needy. The Alumni Banquet provided an opportunity for the graduates to meet each other again and to enjoy an evening together. Page forty-two JUNIOR CLASS COUNCIL REPRESENTATIVES from each junior home room comprise the Junior Council, an executive body formed to discuss matters pertaining to the business of the class. Committees for Junior Night and the Junior Prom are chosen by the council. The members decide all minor problems, but refer to the class all those of major importance. Reports of the meetings are given by the representatives in their homerooms, where proposals are voted on if necessary. Marshall Rothen, the junior class president, presides over the meetings, which are under the supervision of Miss Hayner, the class guide. Page Forty-three JUNIOR DRAMATIC CLUB THE Junior Dramatic Club is composed exclusively of Juniors with the members of the previous years as honorary members. The club offers opportunities to increase the pupil’s knowledge of dramatics and stage management. Committees in the club provide the properties lighting, and cos- tuming for the plays, which are directed by the members and known as studio productions. This year’s productions, with their directors, were: Pot Boiler,” Bob Schulz; Twelve Pound Look,” Gale Spowers; Dear Departed,” Miriam Laskowitz; Night at an Inn,” Henry Silver; Submerged,” Mar- shall Rothen. Scenes from The Merchant of Venice” were presented as an assembly program. JUNIOR DRAMATIC CLUB PLAY THE members of the Junior Dramatic Club presented for their feature offering of the year an abbre- viated version of The Merchant of Venice.” This famous comedy was handsomely presented in assembly with a talented cast, playing the famous court scene of Venice and several scenes in Portia’s palace. The cast included: Portia, Elizabeth Heflin; Nerissa, Marie Brunjes; an attendant, Dorothy Allen; Bassanio, Gale Spowers; Gratiano, Leo Splarry; Salerio, John Sayre; Shylock, John Harvey; Tubal, Robert Sullivan; Antonio, Cameron Moselay; Duke of Venice, Herbert Galoinity. Page Forty-four SOPHOMORE DRAMATIC CLUB THE Sophomore Dramatic Club, sponsored by Miss Ida Alexander, selected for its officers Fred Gaert- ner, William Woodman, Elise Halderman, and Robert Hayt as president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer respectively. The members are divided into committees, the largest being the make-up committee, consisting of eighty-five members. The club, a very active one, presents three programs in assembly during the year. SOPHOMORE DRAMATIC CLUB PLAY AMID a setting of tropical profusion and pandemonium, the Sophomore Dramatic Club presented ''Crocodile Island,” a musical comedy in two acts, on April 20, 1934. In the depths of the land where every weed is flaming and only man is black,” is the kingdom of the jocund ruler, King Bonga- zoola. His majesty, born to the jungle purple, is greatly disturbed by the presence of Coco Orinoco, the guardian of the sacred crocodiles. Coco has sinister designs on the throne and will stop at nothing to accomplish his nefarious purpose. Through the daring efforts of the hero, Coco finally confesses his deception and brings the presentation to a happy close. Page Forty-five COLUMBIAN STAFF THE journalistic-minded students of Columbia High School find an outlet for their literary talent through the medium of their bi-weekly paper, the Columbian. Any success that this publication may have had is, of course, the result of the efforts of the news snoopers. The news, though, is only the raw material that must be prepared in suitable words for the market by other members of the staff. However, Miss MacFarland, the sponsor, wields a grand blue pencil. Lawrence Redpath is the editor- in-chief and Warren Bohner is the business manager. MIRROR STAFF Editor-in-chief, Frederic Reeve; assistant editor-in-chief, Carman Palmer; business manager, John Mitchell; sales manager, Raymond Page; assistant sales manager, Herman Gruning; advertising manager, Walter Tymeson; organizations editor, Eleanor Tichenor; assistant organizations editor, John Glendening; personals editor, Caroline Anderson; assistant personals editors, Marion Hanle, Jane Reichl, Juliette Bar- radale, Ruth Fimbel; sports editor, Edwin Kirch; dramatics editor, Edward Padula; prophet, David Ed- gell; lawyer, Corinne Blum; historian, Jack Higgenbotham; photographer, Harrison Martland; assistant photographer, William Romain; typists, Evelyn Mueller and Pauline Zembika; faculty adviser, Theodore Gnagey. Page Forty-six THE CREATIVE WRITING CLUB THE Creative Writing Club is the only literary organization in Columbia High School which offers the stimulus to write primarily for the pleasure of self-expression. The members voluntarily create the programs presented in the monthly meetings. Occasionally professional writers present to the club what they have found to be the most helpful principles in the technique of various types of writing. In their next publication the members intend to include some of the best literary work submitted by any of our students. Officers of the club are: president, Mary Lou Dull; vice-president, Virginia Hochette; secretary-treasurer, Helen Adams; program chairman, Barbara Dunklin. the book club THE Book Club was organized by a group of students genuinely interested in discussing authors and their books. During the regular meetings the members compare books they have read, and discuss the works of various authors. Sometimes all the members read books by the same author and then dis- cuss the manner in which that particular author presents his opinion, theme, and characters. At other times the group discusses the differences between the old-time novels and the modern ones. During Book Week the club sponsored a book exhibit in which first editions, rare books, and autographed copies were displayed. Page Forty-seven LE CERCLE FRANCAIS THE French Club is a definite asset to those studying the French language. The meetings are made to resemble fete days in France, and members carry on an informal conversation in French. From time to time the club is entertained by lecturers whose topics pertain to the French people and their cus- toms. Each year the club presents a play in the assembly, and this year they staged a play on Armistice Day called, Le Faim Est Un Grand Inventeur.” The club sponsored a theatre party to New York to see Moliere’s comedy, School for Husbands.” DER DEUTSCHE VEREIN THE German Club has been formed so that students of Columbia High School may gain a better speaking knowledge of the German language. This year, since the membership is open to students taking first year German, the meetings are simpler in form. Various programs are presented at the meetings, thus giving all members a chance for participation in club activity. A special feature of the club is the presentation of a play in assembly. Page Forty-eight SCIENCE CLUB THE Science Club is divided into a number of sections which function separately. One of the most interesting is the radio division, for this group possesses an amateur radio station licensed by the government. There are six operators who communicate with other amateurs in code from their station, W2FUA. Other sections of the club are the biology, the astronomy, the chemistry, and the photo- graphy divisions. The officers are as follows: president, Jack Prior; vice-president, Leslie Crocker; secretary, Richard Walker; treasurer, Walter Sayre. The sponsors are Miss Markham, Mr. Chase, and Mr. Brown. AVIATION CLUB THE Aviation Club officers are Gordon Annin, president; Gordon Holbrook, secretary; and Wilma Rogers, treasurer. The club is composed of those students who are interested in aviation and who wish to increase their knowledge of aeronautics, and tries to give a better understanding to them of the principles involved. From time to time the club has talks by outside speakers, also movies and model airplane exhibitions. Each year the club sponsors an aviation meet for model airplanes. A ground course is available to the members, in which they learn the aviation terms and study two Liberty motors in the possession of the club. Page Forty-vine BOYS' ART CLUB THE officers of the Boys’ Art Club are Robert Burns, president; Ellsworth Williams, vice-president; Robert Marcussen, secretary; and Jack Kreismer, treasurer. The membership increased tremendously over that of last year. At the meetings the members sketch figures in the medium in which they are interested, and after the meetings have an exhibition in which they receive constructive criticism about their work. The members who have been fortunate enough to receive assistance from professional painters help the other members surmount their difficulties. This year the club studied the history of water color painting and the history of crayon drawing. GIRLS' ART CLUB THE Girls’ Art Club has been especially active this year in dealing with projects from other organiza- tions in the school. In their meetings they have not taken up individual subjects but have aided in promoting school activities by preparing posters and by other advertising ventures. The students in the club are divided into groups so they may follow the special phases of art in which they are inter- ested. The officers are: president, Marjorie Main; vice-president, Norma Tompkins; secretary, Jane Perry; faculty adviser, Miss Wheeler. Page Fifty PARNASSIAN SOCIETY THE Parnassian society is particularly prominent among the organizations because of the variety of its activities. The club sponsors a Hallowe’en dance in the fall and gives a public performance of some well-known play during the winter. In each meeting there are various programs which give the students an opportunity to demonstrate their talents. The Parnassian holds a guest day in the spring and presents several plays in assembly. The officers are: president, Edward Padula; vice-president, Gale Spowers; secretary, Carman Palmer; treasurer, Robert Loveitt; chairman of program, Marilyn Sheperd. PARNASSIAN PLAY TURNING to the romantic drama, the Parnassian Society presented on Saturday, February 10, 1934, If I Were King.” Abounding in the color and romance of an old age, the play met with extraordinary acclaim by our modern audience. The privilege of being king was granted by the dex- terous Louis XI to a poet-rogue, Francois Villon. During his short reign the vagabond wins the hand of Lady Katherine, thereby escaping the forfeiture of his life. The large cast was headed by Frederic Reeve, Ralph Slutz, Dorothy Yard, and Marguerite Hershberger. The entire organization was instru- mental in the presentation. Page Fifty-one COMMERCIAL CLUB THE leaders of the Commercial Club, sponsored by Miss Hammond, are Marion Hanle, president; Anita Barton, vice-president; Rose Mercadante, secretary; Isabelle Dermanjian, treasurer; and Flor- ence Hardgrove, program chairman. The activities of the club this year have been wholly on the social plane, the members preferring to put aside their books and typewriters for a while. The club witnessed an interesting demonstration in the auditorium by an ex-champion in the art of shorthand and typing. The members enjoy these friendly contacts with each other and profit by them. LATIN CLUB UNDER the sponsorship of Miss Gavin and Miss Carrigan, the Latin Club has become prominent among the organizations of Columbia. This is the first time that the students have attempted to establish such a club, and it has been shown by the students who have entered the club that many are interested. Mr. Paul Anderson talked on Comparison of Modern and Roman Times” in one of the meetings, and members had a number of entertaining programs in other meetings. The officers are: William Chubb, president; Barbara Stobaeus, vice-president; Joe Stella, treasurer; Mary Cameron, secre- tary. Page Fifty-tuo STAMP CLUB THOSE who are interested in philatelic activities may have direct contact with other stamp collectors I in the Stamp Club. Occasionally at the meetings guest speakers demonstrate the interesting pe- culiarities and discuss the different issues of stamps. Other meetings are devoted to the exhibiting of collections or the trading of stamps. This year the club plans to innovate a stamp auction. Through these mediums each member is able to increase his collection and to gain a knowledge of the history and manufacture of stamps. The club subscribes to a pamphlet which keeps the members in touch with the stamp world. THE ELECTRICAL COMMITTEE THE Electrical Committee is composed of two students from the sophomore, junior and senior classes of the school. Each year, two boys are selected on the basis of their scholastic standing and of their activities record in Junior High School. These new people have a year of apprenticeship, and if they prove competent, are made permanent members of the committee. These students, under the directorship of Mr. Parsons, learn to arrange all the lighting effects for every performance given in the auditorium. They become familiar with the various spotlights and are taught to operate the switch board off-stage. Page Fifty-three GLEE CLUBS SERVICE ORCHESTRA BAND ORCHESTRA H‘Co v fe Y OcT WdX' TliLETICS VARSITY FOOTBALL WITH a thrilling 12-0 victory over our ancient Turkey Day” rivals, West Orange, the Marvel team of 193 3 brought to a close another successful season. This year the Red and Black line was colossal. With such veterans as Henry Hellriegel, Jack Hoppock, Sid Rosberger, Captain Pete Harrison, Bev Smith, Bill Borrie, and Bob Murray, Coach Marvel developed a hard charging line. The spectacular backfield was composed of quarterback Ed Jacobi, Tommie Ryan, a plunging fullback; the elusive Frank Maglio, and the hard tackling Johnnie Winkle- bauer were the halfbacks, with speedy Red Di Cicco, Herb Rainwater, an outstanding sophomore, Luke Magliaro, Dutch” Kuhl, and Ralph Saltzman alternating. Columbia breezed through the first two games, overwhelming Scotch Plains by the score of 31-0, then thrashing Summit 12-2. The following week the Big Red Team was slowed up by Morristown and the game ended in a 13-13 tie. In the next battle a determined Orange team left Columbia on the short end of a 12-0 score. The team then traveled to Westfield and completely outplayed the homesters. Although Our Finest” threatened several times, they lacked the necessary punch to put it over and the game ended 0-0. Columbia lost the Montclair game 8-18, and Jacobi sustained an injury which prevented his fur- ther playing. In the New Brunswick game Ryan was shifted to the quarterback position and his excellent signal calling helped crush the invaders 19-0. The following week Columbia downed East Orange 20-0 with a powerful offensive in the last half. Finally in the glorious Thanksgiving Day battle, Columbia visited West Orange and routed that favored, undefeated eleven 12-0. Thus ended another successful season. Page Fifty-six VARSITY BASKETBALL THIS season Coach Mahnken was faced with the difficult task of bui ding up a team with only two ■ letter men from last year’s squad returned. Thus the team was formed mostly from green ma- terial, but the varsity was soon rounded into form. The forward positions were shared by Norman Freund, Ed Jacobi, Frank Maglio, Bob Loveitt, and Richard Drake, while Tommy Ryan and Henry Jedryzek alternated at center. There was plenty of good material for the guard positions, which were filled ably by Moe Levy, Bud Byer, Kirby Preston, Jack Hoppock, Jimmy Graham, and Dick Hadley. This year the varsity suffered a very poor season, winning only three of its sixteen scheduled games. In the first game the team downed the faculty with a 37-3 5 score, and next overwhelmed a powerful alumni team by a 24-17 tally. The red and black suffered their first defeat at the hands of Westfield who handed them a 24-11 beating. Then Kearny vanquished our varsity basketballers in a stirring 31-30 overtime game. These two losses were followed by a 27-19 drubbing by Montclair and a 25-18 thrashing at the hands of Orange. Then Kearny again crushed a fighting Columbia team by a 36-32 score. After this defeat Coach Mahnken’s quintet lost to Bloomfield 30-21. Montclair then downed the varsity 36-21, and West Orange duplicated the feat in a close 2 5-24 game. Continuing in their losing streak, Columbia lost again to Westfield in a 34-21 struggle. Orange handed us another defeat, leaving the varsity on the short end of a 3 8-15 score. Finally the Red and Black broke its losing streak by overwhelming East Orange 30 to 12. In a poor 22 to 12 game the varsity was crushed again by West Orange. Then in a thrilling overtime game a determined Columbia team held an undefeated Summit quintet to a 28-28 tie! Finally the Red and Black closed a poor season withe a 40-21 loss to Madison. Page Fifty-seven VARSITY HOCKEY THIS year the hockey team enjoyed only a fair season. Most of last year’s varsity was lost by gradu- ation, so that coach Sterling had to build up an almost new sextet. The first game was a 3-3 tie with the alumni, who then downed the varsity 7-4 in the following contest. Next, the Red and Black crushed Summit twice by the scores of 7-2 and 8-2. After these victories the varsity met with two humiliating defeats by Highland Falls, the scores being 3-2 and 2-1. The Columbia team closed its season by again downing Summit 1-0. VARSITY SWIMMING THIS year Coach Baker’s mermen splashed through a glorious season. First, the powerful varsity sank Westfield 59-16, and then swamped West Side 54-21. In the next meet Central was drenched by a 62-13 score. Paterson Central won the following meet by a 35-40 tally. South Side was crushed 48-27; the varsity disposed of Central 50-25; Barringer was downed 53-22; then the Baker- men sank Plainfield 50-25. Trenton defeated our swimmers 48-27. The varsity next triumphed over Plainfield 44-22. Paterson Central again defeated the varsity 46-29. The season ended with the Col- umbia swimmers placing third in the State Meet and scoring 11 points. Page Fifty-eight VARSITY BASEBALL WITH the return of eight lettermen, Columbia’s baseball coach, Mr. Philip Marvel, is confident of a brilliant season. Spring practice was started early, and as usual a great number of baseball en- thusiasts turned out.

Page Fifty-nine LEADERS' CLUB THE Leaders’ Club furnishes an opportunity for the girls in gymnasium classes to show their quali- ties of leadership, initiative, and responsibility. The girls are selected according to their grades in athletics and their ability in sports. These leaders assume the responsibility of taking roll call, helping in the management of the classes, checking costumes, and taking care of the equipment. The ninety girls in this club are under the supervision of Miss Marian Allen. The officers are as follows: president, Madeleine Smalley; vice-president, Alice Siedler; secretary, Virginia Becker. GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION COUNCIL THE Girls’ Athletic Association was formed in order to give girls interested in sports an opportunity to compete in athletics. This organization is governed by a council, elected by the preceding coun- cil, composed of the managers of the different sports. The association offers a banner to the class win- ning the greatest number of points from soccer, basketball, swimming, tennis, volleyball, and baseball. During the year the club gives four parties so that the members may become better acquainted with each other. The officers of the association are: president, Norma Tompkins; vice-president, Miss Gavin; secretary, Virginia Hochette; treasurer, Ann Roberts. Page Sixty Advertisements GARFIELD, N.
