Maplewood Memorial Library Maplewood, New Jersey V? 73.? c DURAND ROOM The MIRROR - • V o -60S. COLUMBIA HIGH SCHOOL SOUTH ORANGE • MAPLEWOOD Famine, pestilence, and war were once the dreaded anathema of humanity. Of these, only war remains as a menace to our national security. Scars of strife still seen throughout the world serve as a grim reminder of the selfish domination of despots. The atomic bomb promises the death of millions unless the threat these tyrants pose is eliminated. Here lies the challenge to us, the future citizens of the United States. For it is only natural that the eyes of the freedom-loving peoples of the world should turn to our great nation for leader- ship. As we, the class of 1956, dedicate our yearbook to world peace, we pledge ourselves to this ideal, hoping that we, as individual persons and as a nation, will be resolute enough to meet the challenge.

COLUMBIA HIGH SCHOOL Erected by the peoples of South Orange and Maple- wood and dedicated to the principles of education for all MDCCCCXXVII This building, the product of many thoughtful minds and skillful hands, is an expression of the will of the people to provide full opportunity to all who enter its halls, for the development of ability and character — that they may become sturdy, righteous citizen inspired by the ideal of unselfish service. Cjreetlnc d to the daSA of 1936 You are graduating in an exciting and challenging decade. Never at Columbia has the interest in education beyond high school been higher. Never have opportunities for qualified young people in business or industry or the professions been greater. Never has our country been stronger or wealthier or occupied a position of greater prestige than it has in this decade. These are great years in which to begin one’s adult life. Among the more than four hundred young men and women who will receive their diplomas June 21, a large number will be outstandingly successful in whatever they undertake — whether it be college, a job, the armed services or marriage. Some will succeed moderately well; others will just get by”; and a small minority will be failures. Research on the factors affecting success and failure indicate that while high ability and good education are very important in achieving success, they share equal importance with strong purposes, readiness to work long and hard, and a capacity for getting along with other people. Generally speaking, the people who succeed are the ones who deserve to. Good luck or bad luck are largely superstitions. Most people make their own luck. Although your eyes and thoughts are focused ahead, do not forget that Columbia is and will continue to be your school home, and you are always welcome to come back to visit your teachers and your other friends here. Where- ever you go and whatever you do, you carry with you the affectionate good wishes of the men and women and of the boys and girls who make up Columbia High School. Page 10 Robert L. Amsden, Principal Senior The time has come to say good-bye to Columbia High School. Our stay here has been rich in fun and learning, and we shall always cherish the memories of these past three years. As we approached Columbia for the first time, we felt apprehensive. The unfamiliar surroundings, the maze of halls, and the mysterious lunch schedule bewildered us. However, it wasn’t long before we blended into the school body and could no longer be distinguished as sophomores. We joined as many clubs and committees as our time permitted, and in April we participated in our first election. Excitement swept through the school; posters with flashing lights, noisy campaign rallies, and homemade campaign buttons added to the colorful confusion. Soon we were juniors, and the all important activity was the preparation for Time Out For Timothy, our smash-hit Junior Night production. What fun we had composing and rehearsing our own show! The school echoed for months afterward with the refrains of Neighborly Love” and I’m Brock.” Our junior year was packed with other new experiences. Club and school council meetings, and special teas and breakfasts were now held in the modern Peter Kasen Memorial room. We can remember many a party held there, complete with music from the spinet piano and entertainment from the hi-fi and television sets. The sports’ year was highlighted by the swimming team’s exciting victory over Trenton High School to capture the coveted State Championship title. The marking system was radically changed under the direction and planning of three committees; one composed of students, another of teachers, and a third of parents. A lettering system, including pluses and minuses, replaced the outmoded percentage system. Our parents came down with severe cases of writer’s cramp from signing eight cards, one for each subject! Steve Decter carried through one of the planks in his platform by establishing the sophomore orienta- tion committee, a group whose purpose is to clear away the fog that always hovers around new students. We are sorry that we could not have enjoyed the advantages of this assistance. How much easier our first days here would have been. The elections added to our list of firsts” when Richard Updike was elected in the primaries with a land- slide victory. This was the only time in fifteen years that a candidate did not have to go to the finals to be elected. In our class election, John Chappelear was chosen to preside at our graduation in 1956. We were surprised to learn that Miss Helene Smith, our esteemed guide, was to retire at the end of our junior year. She had ably served Columbia as an English teacher, head of the English department, and class guide during our sophomore and junior years. It was reassuring to learn, however, that Mr. Fleming was to assume the responsibility of class guide along with Mr. Thompson. The ink on our final exams had scarcely time to dry before we were returning to accept all the responsi- bilities and prestige that mark the eldest class in the school. Our class was very special in many respects. We fulfilled our responsibility as Seniors by demonstrating great drive and school spirit; never before had so many well-attended dances been held, and never before had so many spectators supported our athletic events. The 1956 swimming team won the State Meet for the second year in a row by a slim margin of one-half point. Chitranjan Kapur from India and Yoriko Konishi from Japan spent two short weeks with us under the Herald-Tribune Exchange Student Plan. We learned a great deal about the customs and ideas of their respective countries from these interesting people. Yoriko entertained us with a graceful, interpretative Japanese dance. The Ford Foundation added to our choice of academic courses for our senior year. We were the first class to benefit from the advanced courses in English, chemistry, and mathematics that were offered at Columbia under the sponsorship of the Foundation. We were also priviliged in that we participated in the National Merit Scholarship Examinations which were initiated this year. More than thirty percent of our students who took the exams passed the first screening. Manwoo Lee, a friendly Korean boy, was a welcome addition to our class. We enjoyed talking and listening to him and being with him in classes. We were very pleased to see him at our dances and football games. He became quite proficient on ice skates, too! Miss Mildred Bullock, a teacher of business education; Miss Cecelia Freeman, a French teacher; Dr. Helen Leech, class guide and Latin teacher; and Miss Marjorie Nichols, an English teacher, announced their decision to retire after their years of faithful service to Columbia. In the Veterans’ Day assembly, a set of clear-toned chimes was presented to the school in memory of Mr. Frederic J. Crehan, the late principal of Columbia. At this time, two plaques in memory of former faculty members were placed on the walls of the auditorium. Highlighting the year was the Senior Play production of George Washington Slept Here,” in which we showed our fine acting talent. The cast of this play was one of the largest ever seen on the Columbia stage. Mr. Browning, a new member of the faculty, directed the production with skill. The hilarious comedy was received with gales of laughter. Now all these events are behind us and exist only in memory. It seems as though the years have deliber- ately hurried by. Soon we shall graduate and our lives will follow many different paths. But each of us will remember well the work and fun we shared together, and the warm friendships we made at Columbia High School. ¥ JAMES P.

I was taken on a tour of the whole country and was introduced to many unfortunate people, both in the ranks of the proletariat and in the aristocracy. Arriving in California, I attended a party at the Russian Embassy given in my honor by Helen Skade, who was in charge of diplomatic protocol. Among the distinguished guests were Ted Van Putten, ambassador to the Netherlands, Pat Ogden, senator from California, Maxine Ertag, delegate to Belgium, and columnists, Bonnie Josephs, Peg Orchard, and Ursula Boedecker. Just as I was filling my face with red herring, a resounding crash echoed through the building; and messenger boy, Allan Heyman, rushed in with the news that arsonist, Hank Humphrey, had just set off a cherry bomb in the lobby. Laughing hysterically, he was being carried off by Dr. Henry Auer and his nurses, Judy Saunders and Pat Cooper. Then I was escorted out by my bodyguards, Dave Mansell and Dave Mazzarella. In order to calm my frazzled nerves, I was taken to the commercial stronghold, Hollywood, where a film was being made entitled Time Out for Timothy. A capitalistic enterprise, naturally it took place in a bank and starred Julie Stomne, Harold Kelshaw, and Asher Krafchick. Seen around the set were directors Doris Dickler and Nancy Shaw; Roy Eisenhardt, famous songwriter, who was humming melo- diously Nada de Particular ; Martha Wills, scenery designer; Ed Roth, producer; and Brenda Klein- erman, make-up artist. I was then whisked away to a fabulous party at the home of socialite Kathi Eagan. As I sipped my Manhattan and longed for a Moscow Mule, I met many famous aristocrats. There were four Walt Disney cartoonists, Don Pollock, George Beck, Sandy Felio, and Justin Ost; gossip columnist, Nancy Salzman; tennis star, Ralph Heyman; Miss Rhein gold of I960, Norma Collier; and Dave Melick, foreign car agent for General Motors. From Hollywood I took a plane to Las Vegas, Nevada, a city run by gamblers out to rob the proletariat. My first stop was Danny’s Desert Dugout, owned by a city slicker named Aron. The emcee, Dick Carr, introduced singers Charlie Wicks and Carol Silvers, pantomimist Myrna Glazer, and chorus girls, Marilyn Stephany, Carole Hebeler, Nessa Goldstein, Carolyn Darnell, and Sue Klein- waks. Bourgeois comedians Ed Hartke and Bill Bischoff, and interpretive dancers Lori Colucci and Jean Lawder finished the show. In a smoky corner of the room lounged cardsharks Ken Jacobson and Herby Ross. As I left the club I stumbled across Leroy Dubeck, seated under a cactus, thinking up moves for his coming championship chess match with Joe Begasse. Although I was in Nevada, I was unable to visit Los Alamos Testing Grounds because scientists John Chappelear and Bob Freund had just blown up the place with their new H20 bomb. I left hurriedly for Washington D.C., where Secretary of State Bill Horton and I were photographed by Tony Cannon and were shown around by Dan McAlister, who was in charge of foreign relations. President Richard D. Updike and Representative J im Wilde from New Jersey were reviewing the U.S. Olympic team whose members included sprinters Norm Rothfuss and Don Sharkey, diver Bill Riter, women's hockey champion Sha Petrozello, skating star Mel Seidler, and football players Jerry Cerza and George Underhill. Since it was the year of the senatorial elections, I heard speeches given by Joan Gomillion, Richard Orsi, and Jan Spielman, all advocating world peace. Atop a soap box was Ted Cohn preaching higher pay for streetcleaners. The hot air from a filibuster waged by Congressman Peter Sachs carried me to New York, that capitalistic metropolis. Out on the street selling cuff-links was Natalie Owen, and tagging along behind her was Linda Salzman, still plugging for that 20% commission. In the afternoon I visited Carnegie Hall where famous flutist Rita Fiedel, and world-r enowned pianist Gary Evans were giving a concert. Linda Habas, music columnist for Pat Hall’s popular newspaper, World Mirror, was covering the event. I ate dinner at Joe and Sandy’s Place, run by Carroll and MacDonald, and in the evening I saw a performance of the famous Russian comedy, Joseph Stalin Slept Here. The stars were Howard Weinstein, Eileen Shanley, Joan Lange, and Paul Zeigler. After this highly entertaining experience I settled down for a good night's rest at the International Hotel, run by Joyce Kastner. Early the next morning I was taken on a tour of the monopolistic capital, New York, by Governor Jonny Rose. In the fashion world we met Ronnie Inlander, Esquire’s top model, and Melite Smith, famous fashion designer. Miss Smith’s favorite models were Ruth Ann Goodman, Debby Eisenberg, Carole Gottlieb, and Susan Ross. All her fashion show scripts were assembled by free-lance writer, Brenda Lesnik. Top women's coat designer was Dot Connors, who said that she felt the old type fur coats were coming back in style. As Governor Rose and I neared Wall Street, we met many big business magnates: Ray Behar and Alan Rothfeder, co-owners of the Herald Times; Henry Heystek and Ray Israelow, managers of Con- Edison; and Steve Halprin, controller of a dairy that supplied all New York with milk. But the most depressing sight I saw in New York was prosperous-looking Bob Tessler, head of the Stock Exchange, who was dribbling a basketball down Wall Street, trying to forget his worries. Poor lost capitalist! New York was my last stop in America and after the confusion and disorder of that city, all you comrades can imagine how good the cool air of the tundra felt against my face. Let the Americans keep their free enterprise—they still have no industrial system that works so well as the glorious salt mines of Siberia.

Page 91 junior A bit of prospecting for uranium and romance was the highlight of Up V At’m’, the class of 1957’s Junior Night show presented on Friday and Saturday evenings, March 9 and 10. Professor Diddle and his student assistant, Jeff, are searching for uranium in the ghost” town of Hard Rock, Arizona and discover that a bit of feminine fascination is included in the bounty. Here the fun begins! Not only cowboys and dudes, but college students and professors form the background. Even Ed Sullivan gets into the act! Add to the above the exceptional dances, songs, and Thespian ability, and you have the ingredients for a terrific show! Responsible for the great success of Junior Night were Miss Mary F. Clutton, the director, and her assistant, Mr. Herman Mendelson. 1 1 iff lit lan OFFICE STAFF Editorial Advisor...........................Mrs. C. L.

KEARNY: After Kearny scored their first touch- down, Jack Press took the kickoff and raced to the goal. With seconds to go in the half, Press passed to Dick Orsi, who fell on the three yard line as the gun sounded. In the second half, each team scored once; but Kearny again made the extra point, which was the deciding factor. Final score: 13-14. EAST ORANGE: Favored East Orange seemed bound for its expected win when Columbia’s attack came to life. The Cougars scored once; and after regaining possession, began a drive which seemed to have the makings of the winning touchdown. But an East Orange back intercepted a Scheu pass and outran Columbia’s defense to score the clinch- ing touchdown. Final score: 13-20. WEST ORANGE: After our traditional rivals had taken a 13-0 lead, the Cougars began to fight. Jerry Cerza picked up a blocked kick and ran for a touch- down. Soon after, Columbia tied the score, but just missed the deciding extra point. Final score: 13-13. Page 104 PLAINFIELD: Facing a highly-rated Plainfield eleven, Columbia led most of the way, but lost in the final quarter on two successive Plainfield touch- downs. Final score: 14-20. ORANGE: In their first away tilt, the Cougars looked good as they took the lead and held it to the final gun. Orange was allowed a safety in the fourth period. Final score: 19-2. MORRISTOWN: The final score gives little indi- cation of Columbia’s superior ball-playing against Morristown. The Cougars controlled the ball throughout most of the game and threatened often, while Morristown showed little strength. Charlie Wicks scored the game’s lone touchdown on a 25-yard dash. Final score: 7-0. WESTFIELD: The Cougars showed great ability to move the ball and easily defeated Westfield. George Underhill scored all of Columbia’s three T.D.’s. Final score: 19-6. MONTCLAIR: The Cougars were clearly out- classed against Montclair. The Mounties, displaying terrific blocking, demonstrated fine team work. Columbia could advance only by passing, and could not go far enough to score. Final score: 0-47.

Cjtrh tthfetic A party for sophomores and new girls launched this year’s G.A.A. activities. The juniors and seniors tackled field hockey with its shin guards and sticks”, while the sopho- mores acquired new skill at speedball. Seen throughout the fall, emerging from the pool in stylish” bathing suits, were girls working for their life-saving certificates. As soon as the winter winds blew too cold for outdoor sports, the girls tried to master the spike” and other techniques of volley- ball. The fall season was highlighted by a Hallowe’en party sponsored by the council to which the gym teachers came disguised as witches. As 1955 came to a close, G.A.A. cele- brated the holiday season with its annual Christmas party. Entertainment, refreshments, and interviews with Santa Claus sparked the occasion. The new semester initiated basketball. The double dribble was used to good advantage as the three classes competed in an intramural tournament. The tie and other new regula- tions were adopted which greatly speeded up the game. With the advent of spring, the girls went outdoors once more; this time with soft-balls and bats. All worked hard in hopes of being selected for the red or black honor team. Association These teams, composed of the best baseball players, held highly competitive games at the end of the year. The G.A.A. ended its activities with its annual awards party. At this party, girls who had met special requirements were awarded life-saving certificates, letters, and numerals. The G.A.A. was especially fortunate this year to par- ticipate in several playdays. On Saturday, October 29, Columbia High School acted as hostess to the schools par- ticipating in the State Hockey Playday. On October 19, the G.A.A. sponsored a speedball playday with South Orange and Maplewood Junior High Schools. This was done on an orientation basis. The council hoped to acquaint the junior high students with the procedure at Columbia in regard to speedball and other gymnastic activities. Among the outstanding events of the G.A.A. year were the student-teacher and mother-daughter volleyball contests. In the spring, three girls were sent to Trenton to participate in a statewide playday. The officers of the Girls’ Athletic Association were: Sha” Petrozello, president; Gail Rosevear, vice-president; Joan Lange, secretary; and Janice Cook, treasurer. ”3 4 wirier5 1st row (left to right) Marie Iantosca, Marilyn Reiff, Antoinette Verducci, Angela Varrallo, Janet Pitfield. 2nd row (left to right) Joann Foley, Barbara Foran, Judy Brown, Dorothy Heyeck, Kay Armstrong.

In Memoriam Things change, persons die, everything human is bound to change or meet with death, but the universe remains and with it the reason and the truth which is derived thereof.
