To the aims Effort, strength, wisdom, We dedicate this book; The class of '55— Our cry, Excelsior!” Congratulations and farewell. How mixed are the feelings of our gradu- ating seniors at this commencement time. The joy of being through with high, school routines; the eagerness for the new experiences that lie just ahead; the opportunity of being more completely on one’s own”—these and other feel- ings mingle with an awareness that the wonderful camaraderie of high school yesirs will begin to fade away; a knowledge that home and hometown will never be quite the same ago.in; an understanding that the security of high school is almost over and that each person must begin again in a new group to build a place for himself. These are some of the feelings of seniors facing commencement; I remember them well, although it was twenty-five years ago this June that I said farewell to my high school and home and community. The Class of 1955 has been a particularly fine class. In spite of the great size of our school, I have felt close to our present seniors; for as newcomers we entered Columbia’s halls together and have had many experiences in com- mon these past three years. To you, the Class of 1955, go my hearty congratu- lations and best wishes—and I speak for all of your teachers and other friends at Columbia. I urge you to begin your new work with vigor and judgment and with high purpose. Many people cluster around the bottom rungs of the proverbial ladder of success; the upper rungs, however, are relatively empty. In every field of work there is a great lack of high quality people—people of good will who think hs.rd and work hard. Be adults of high quality, and happiness and suc- cess will be yours. Robert L.

At Griming’s the students were sipping their cokes, At Cameron, playing and laughing at jokes; But back of it all were the mem’ries we had, Most of them happy, and some of them sad. We were nervous at starting our first high school inning, And found that our Principal was also beginning; Acting jolly and fair as a principal could, Being firm at the times when a principal should. But we weren't alone in increasing the tally; Five teachers came also to Parker and Valley: Brier, Buckley and Bradshaw, also Frampton and Pesh Arrived to help make the scholastic gears mesh. Of all of our memories, some great ones were born, Place: Auditorium . . . Time: Friday morn; The class of '02 found their way back again; Mrs. Roosevelt spoke about us and U. N.; We saw Ike sworn as President through the eyes of TV; Bartholomew came: I am honored, said he. That Columbians had honor was somebody's guess: The experiment, in study halls, proved a success; Some of us felt that two new clubs were needed: Wrestling failed, but the Platform succeeded. Our first year in sports gave us smiles and some frowns, As our athletic teams had their ups and their downs: In the pool we were champions, on the diamond we tied; On the gridiron and basketball court— we just died! For the first time at school, the Big Ten was here, But the indoor track left—and with it, the year! More Latin! More English! More math, trig and chem— Two more years, darn it! We’re not through with them. Our junior year brought us a real innovation, The driver ed car was a welcome sensation; But this wasn't all in our school that was new— We later found other additions there, too: A room in the library where students can meet; A film room containing a new type of seat; In the Kasen room comfort may really be found; In the speech center students can hear how they sound. To our school in New Jersey from Chile one day Came a man whom we all learned to like, senor Gray; Staying on this international plane, We welcomed two students, from England and Spain. Alexander’s death, Snyder's, and Stranahan’s too, Brought a deep sense of loss, as such sad tidings do. On a happier note, Junior Night was a hit! No Kidding showed industry, talent, and wit. The school-wide elections, on everyone’s mind, Had the best nominees that the voters could find; The speeches that year had excitement and fire, And the race was the closest, right down to the wire. For the second straight year, our team tied the Big Ten, And our swimmers� . splashed onward to glory again; Bowling, a popular new sport, arose, And football and basketball—well, never mind those. Even more Trench and German! Still more physics and speech! Stick it out one more year and the end’s within reach! At last we were seniors! Oh glorious day! We awaited the Prom and the big Senior Pl y. We found it exciting, with days filled with fun, But we also found plenty of work to be done! So those were the memories all of us had: Most of them happy, and some of them sad. But now I have run out of rhymes and I’m stuck; So— Congratulations to all, and to all lots of luck!” Page Jen LYNN MERLIN ACKERMAN Winnie” 48 Oakland Road Maplewood Chemistry Club 4; Chess Club 4; Library Council 2, 3, Treasurer 4; Pan American Club 3; Personality Club 3; G.A.A. 2, 3, 4; Sophomore Dramatic Club y 2; Homeroom Treasurer 3; Elections Committee 2, 3; Junior Night Chorus 3; Senior Play Properties Committee 4; Mirror Girls’ Sports Editor 4; Columbian Reporter 2.

GL ass ecy I came out of the Landing Lot of Utopia, where I had left my new 75 Jet Rockingchair, and started down the avenue. I was greeted by a very excited crowd and I saw so many old friends, too! There was Fraser Baron, in his new Cougar (like the old-time Jaguars). There was Connie Kuerstiner, the best hockibasket player in the universe. Hockibasket is the game in which everyone tries to flip his shinguards into the hoop. I saw Judy Basch, the poetic violinist, and Cliff Sheehan, who used to be a real cut-up in school, and is now a famous sur- geon. 1 recognized many other old friends, too; however, there was one fellow I saw whom I knew vaguely but just couldn’t place. I lost sight of him as the huge mob moved me with it into the No Kidding Amphitheatre.” By the time I had reached the box office, there was no turning back, so I paid my two rallods (Utopian money) and went in. When I found my seat, I asked the man next to me what the show was. He said it was a charity marathon, and that the proceeds were to go to the Teen Council, still actively operating. While waiting for the show to start, I idly looked around for my unknown friend. I saw Johnny Brandman, who won the Charles Atlas award six years running, skipping two years, and four years stand- ing still. I saw Dot Gill, manager of the New York Giants baseball team; Don Rogers, Marty Cerza, and Dick Mercadante, of the World Championship toeball team; and Ruth Chimacoff and Merle Ann Beck, both far ahead of their times—The New York Times, and Time Magazine. Ginny Zipf was there model- ing another fur coat, and also Gayl Maxwell, author-lecturer who has brought Latin back to life. And there in his own private box was Professor Bob Lewit, brilliant chemist-physicist who discovered the eve, a negative atom. But no sign of Mr. X. Just then Master of Ceremonies, Phil Lieberman, introduced Steve Decter, President of Utopia, who began the show with a splendid oration on the need for money in the Teen Council Treasury. He was followed by the hilarious comedy team of Ann Grady, Myron Sugarman and Dudley Summers. Then that sterling quartette Penny Wilson, Marie De John, Bev Brown, and Julie Wilson sang a current tune that really made me want to cry. But at that point Mary Ellen Amberg, Sue Oppenheimer, and Lois Papio stepped in with a cute little modern jog that cheered me up. Babs Tiger gave a one-act, one-character play, entitled Ah,” and then Bob Zimmer interrupted to give us the lowdown on incoming donations. Peggy Hockman, book collector, Sarah Dailey, president of U.N. General Assembly, and Larry Marcus, famous sports writer, all sent in contributions. Donations were also received from Nick Smith, Kidd” gloves manufacturer, and Peter Specht, wealthy playboy who had made a killing on the market when he worked as a butcher’s assistant. Quickly scanning the audience again for Mr. X, I saw Pat Gilbert, renowned model; Kathy O’Connor, winner of the Saucer Matches; Dietrich Wahlers, Bill Suter, and John Roberts, members of the Universe Trotters; and Rhona Gittlin, famous hostess. I also saw Dick Nirenberg, who wrote North Atlantic,” the musical comedy now in its ninth year on the Milkyway, and Judy Huggins, first person to sail to the moon on liquid air; but I didn’t see Mr. X. Meanwhile, on the stage Nancy Park was doing the Dance of the Flying Swan, a kind of Ballet High. Next on the program was Adele Mayers, playing the Flight of the Yellow Jacket” on her violin, and then Ed Smith, famous tenor whose current hit is Lonely Star.” After mimic Mike Beinner had given his imitations of a few well-known actors, Gail Shehadi, still as rugged as ever, gave us a rousing pep talk. Then John Levi announced a sale of tickets for a rocket ride to Venus, with all proceeds to go to the Teen Council Fund. More donations were announced from Ira Kay, Butterfly Net manufacturer; Phyllis Schlain, owner of Mother Schlain’s Knitting Patterns”; Jim Levy, cashier of the Utopian Mint; and Rosalyn Magod, famous socialite. Ernie Delguercio also called to say that he would paint a portrait of anyone donating 50,000 rallods or more. Once more I made a hasty search of the audience to see if I could locate Mr. X; for by now my curiosity was getting the better of me. I saw Harvey Weissbard, track star who broke the 3-minute mile; Dean Beyer, Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Moot Court; Ilse Benzien, first woman to ski around the rings of Saturn; and Stuart Adelman, eccentric physicist who saves atoms—he’s an atom miser. But still no Mr. X. When I turned my attention back to the stage, I caught the end of a tumbling act by Charles Beck, Bob Glickman, and Fred Bioren, The Three Flips. Esther Hazeltine gave a monologue called Why?” Then Alan Caruba came out to light the candelabra on her piano, and Anita Kastner played her own arangement of Trying to Make You Mine.” After a beautiful dance by the Merry Modernettes, Janet Goebel, Elaine Rainone, Barbara Sharpe, Joan Trimble, and Dot MacKinnon, came Jane Ringel and George Werner singing the an ' Blues.” The Jazz Band: Barry Jaffe, Harris Brody, Bill Sodoma, Bob Brenman, Bill Vogel, and Jimmy Lazarus, was announced, and everyone went wild as they played When the Saints Go Crawling Out.” And finally, to my great surprise and chagrin, Tom Meier intro- duced Mr. X., the governor of the State of Confusion, Irving Snell. As Charlie McCarthy snapped his picture, Irving gave a tearful plea for money for the Teen Council Treasury. Realizing that the show might go on all night, I quietly plowed my way through the crowd to the door. On the way I saw Patia Herbert, who did extensive research in Alaska on recipes for Eskimo Pies. After careful scrutiny by Amalya Kearse, head of the international F.B.I., I was allowed to pass out. When I came to, I was back in my little padded cell, with my little keeper in the little white coat standing over me. d_ WlTTIEST AMALYA KEARSE Best Students BOB LEWIT RUTH CHIMACOFF - -M«ST ATTRACTIVE JILL MILLER DICK MERCADANTE Best Athletes1 MARTY CERZA CONNIE KUERSTINER Page Sixty-five import and £urne6t A sparkling new revival of Oscar Wilde’s international favorite, 'The Importance of Being Earnest,” was received most enthusias- tically by a large audience on the evenings of November nineteenth and twentieth at the Columbia High School Auditorium. The class of 1955 s Senior production was both well cast and ably directed by Miss Mary F. Clutton and Mr. Herman Mendelson. Each character, from Lane, the manservant (Aron Schmukler), through Merriman, the butler (David Merrifield), was perfectly portrayed. Dudley Summers as Algernon, and Robert Brenman as John Worthing, really “lived” their parts delightfully, while Judy Huggins vividly portrayed the pom- pous Lady Bracknell. Esther Hazeltine played the decorous Gwendoline, and Sue Forester, the flower-like Cecily. Thoroughly amusing characterizations were those of Miss Prism and Rev. Canon Chasuble, played by Patia Herbert and Frank Langella respec- tively. The English farce was given a rapid, yet fluid pace by the hard-working production staff, the excellent cast, and the competent directors.

They never relinquished their lead as the hard-running backfield proved too much for the startled Kards. COLUMBIA 13, PLAINFIELD 13: Taking a 13-0 halftime advantage the locals seemed to be heading for an easy vic- tory. However, a rejuvenated and determined Plainfield eleven gained a second-half tie for our only stand-off of the year. COLUMBIA 7, MORRISTOWN 0: The score did not prove Columbia’s superiority. The hard running of Cerza, Blotner, and Mercadante gave us six T.D. chances, but only a first period score gave the Gems a victory against a stubborn Colonial team. COLUMBIA 19, ORANGE 0: This was not a surprise against a hapless Tornado aggregation. The line held firm to give Columbia its second shutout of the year. COLUMBIA 7, WESTFIELD 28: This was the biggest upset of the year. A usually stubborn foe to conquer, the aggres- sive Blue Devils took every advantage of Columbia’s weak defense and rolled up a 14-0 halftime score. Columbia was never in the game, as Westfield scampered for two more tallies in the last quarter to hand the Cougars the worst thumping of the year. COLUMBIA 0, EAST ORANGE 26: A strong Columbia line held the Panthers to a 6-0 halftime lead. In the second half, the overpowering forces of East Orange began to break away and the Cougars had a hard job stopping the fleet Panther backs. They tallied two more touchdowns in the third period and were stopped on the five as the game ended. COLUMBIA 7, MONTCLAIR 27: In a game twice postponed by rain, Columbia played its best defensive game of the year, despite the score. The lone Gem score came on a Mountie interception by Santisiere and the conversion by Ben Davis making the halftime score 13-7. Don Rogers played an outstanding game, but a powerful aggregation of Mounties vying for State Champion honors hit for two more scores in the final period to put the game on ice. COLUMBIA 14, WEST ORANGE 7: In the traditional Turkey Day thriller a sparkling pass to Kempler from captain Cerza, covering 29 yards, produced a 7-0 lead at the half. Early in the final period the Cowboys tied the score; but fourteen plays later, after covering 80 yards, Cerza slashed over from the two to give the Locals a 14-7 victory and a fairly successful season.
