Our first weeks were spent in frenzied experiments of trial and error. Where was that English class? We were sure it had been there yesterday. Was the period omitted, or had we gone to the wrong lunch? Sooner or later we learned to find our way around Columbia. Our homeroom teachers and committee representatives patiently explained the countless rules and introduced us to the opportunities in sports, clubs, and student government. Our lives had become curiously compli- cated. Little by little we became a part of Columbia, and Columbia became a part of us. Some- how we knew that the words of the Alma Mater had become our words. 1961- 1962 As returning juniors, Columbia was no longer quite so immense or quite so confusing as it had been just a year before. We looked forward to a full year, and it proved to be just that. College plans were formulated, and the P.S.A.T.’s were just warnings of what was in store. Doubts were dispelled momentarily, however, for Junior Night was close at hand. The Class of 1963 presented Stage Door, never losing an ounce of the spirit that characterizes the occasion. Oversized shirts, pigtails, and ridiculous hats were the order of the day as hundreds gathered in Memorial Park at dawn. A few unfortunates found themselves in the brook that morning. It was a year of ac- tivity highlighted by a visit of four Argentine exchange students and the visit to Columbia by Governor Hughes. We worked hard that year, both in our schoolwork and in our extracurric- ular activities, looking forward to the time -when we would be school leaders. Probably the most popular subject of conversation was legal driving. Those w'ho had so patiently counted the days sympathized with those who were still waiting. As the year drew to a close, however, talk grad- ually returned to more important questions about the future. 1962- 1963 From the very first day, our senior year placed us face to face with the problems of get- ting into college and formulating plans for the future. There were more S.A.T.’s, achievement tests, and writing samples; and we spent hours completing lengthy applications which dared to ask for autobiographical essays. The waiting seemed interminable, and as our friends were ac- cepted one by one, we grew increasingly uneasy. However, Mrs. Howell, Mr. Fleming, and Mr. Gray helped us keep our sanity; and we buckled down to work, frantically relating every test to our chances for acceptance or rejection by the colleges. We welcomed a group of nine Ar- gentine exchange students from Colegio Ward. At last we were on top. Our president headed the Council; pur classmates held the leadership positions in those very same clubs, committees, and sports to which we had been introduced two years before. Mrs. Howell of the Guidance Department, Mr. Pontz, head of the Business Education Department, and Mr. Spear of the Driver Education Department retired from the faculty. Graduation in June was a happy occa- sion as we peered optimistically into the future, but it also proved to be a time of reflection. It was difficult to believe that three years were gone. Yes, now we look ahead, but we will al- ways remember our years at Columbia. 8 MARY RUTH ACKERMAN 423 Elmwood Avenue Maplewood . . . that strawberry-blonde hair ... an all-around good student . . . runs faster than the speed of light ...

All The Gossip Fit To Print Vol. 1 THE CLASS OF 1963 - NEW YORK—Attended a fabulous party last night at Nicky Kern’s plush new lounge atop the Waldorf-Astoria . . . Co-owner and host is old friend Ronny Horner . . . Noticed many familiar faces from Columbia’s Class of 1963; they’re all famous now . . . Bartender is none other than world renowned brewmaster Marty Kronberg, who was kept busy all night refilling glasses with exclusive Barrish Beer. Heard that Leslie Sobelson just got back from the Riviera and then, seeing her at the party, am in- clined to agree with the current opinion that she has done more for the knitted dress than Henry Ford did for the automobile . . . Speaking of fashion, Pam Sullivan (long-time editor of “Collegiate Dressing” magazine) showed up in something that is sure to catch on with the younger set—madras weejun loaf- ers .. . Jeanne Wohlers, still collegiate at heart, loved the shoes . . . Also heard Harriet Reisen’s fash- ion philosophy: she wears dark colors to dim her brilliance. Concerning the social whirl, Nancy Mersfelder and Denise Green were there reminiscing—Denise in tears as she recalled the cancellation of her first pep rally . . . Noticed Libby Tucker, in her mink-trimmed raccoon coat, spreading sunshine . . . Also saw An- gelica Ibarguen; she’s still as beautiful as when she competed against Mary Ann Bough in the finals of the Miss America contest several years ago . . . Speaking of contests, Sheila Neibart has just received a wonderful honor; she was selected from a group of 52 finalists as “Scruftie of the Year” . . . Heard that milionaire socialite Bruce Reynolds has found a new hobby—he flies to Hollywood every week-end to animate the “Bulwinkle” cartoons . . . Also re- ceived news that philanthropists Dave Lowenstein, Richard Sommerstein, and Steve Fisher are sup- porting the campaign to erect a memorial to Carrie Nation on the site of the ruins of an old Italian res- taurant in Orange . . . Equally philanthropic Diane Rogers, Lynne Scarlett, and Beth Dobbelaar have heavily endowed South Orange school, Seton Hall, “just for old times’ sake.” There was a lot of talk about happenings in the sports world last night . . . Coach Mike Cirasella of the South Orange Cookie Crumblers refused to ac- cept player Jeff Schwartz’s uniform; it seems that the suit was full of splinters . . . Dick Virtue has been training for the last 17 years (under his father’s guidance) to make the team (“If at first you don’t succeed . . .”), while frail, gentle Bob Ritchwood has finally made waterboy . . . Two major sports acci- dents were reported, unfortunately: Steve Novick broke his leg last week, trying to out-do his 7'1 son in basketball and Bob Citron broke his foot again— this time, he explained, he was jumping up and down on his bed because he had water in his ear . . .

Like mother, like daughter—Bonnie Bush is now singing in the night-club circuit in the City. On the literary scene . . . Just published are two books by Jack-of-all-trades Tom Berger; The ABC’s of Denunciation and Governor’s Pals and Other Sub- jects of Criticism. Tom does his writing in his spare time, when not breaking bricks with his bare hands or beating bongo drums . . . Critic and politician Barry Metzger’s reviews were rather cool . . .

There’s still a persistent rumor that his father bought him the town back in 1961 . . . Saw Bobby Livermore last night. How many of you remember when he was elected “Cut- est Sophomore Boy” while he was a senior at Co- lumbia High School? ... A messenger ran in last night looking for Mady Sokoloff. After he told her that she had lost her fortune on a bad stock deal, she cocked her head to one side, smiled, said “Really?” and went back to her conversation with Irene Shonberg, who still models for eye make-up ad- vertisements now and then. One last word about last night’s soiree: even famed hostesses Kris Edwards and Sherri Zimmer- man agreed that it was the best in years. 87 Min’s MOST INDIVIDUALISTIC Bill Kruvant and Katy Schachter WITTIEST Richard Sommerstein and Susan Kane MOST ATHLETIC Susan Nielsen and John Payne DONE MOST FOR SCHOOL Steven Novick and Angelica Ibarguen MOST ATTRACTIVE Ronny Horner and Leslie Sobelson MOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED Harriet Reisen and Barry Metzger FRIENDLIEST Nick Kern and Libby Tucker Utjo MOST VERSATILE Migsie Goodman and Richard Coppola MOST SCHOLARLY Sandy Bussing and Mark Tushnet MOST TALENTED David Goldmann and Nancy Weinberg riiir BKi r m Who’s Wlfo 1303 BEST EXECUTIVE Mr. Amsden MOST GRACIOUS Miss Barton FASTEST CIRCLE IN THE EAST Mr. Brown MOST COOPERATIVE Mrs. Dharni MOST STUDIOUS Mr. Duchesneau MOST ECONOMICAL Mr. Faust MOST VERSATILE Mr. Fiske MOST DEBONAIR Mr. Fleming MOST OFTEN SMILING Mr. Gray MOST DIRECTION-CONSCIOUS Mr. Hamingson MOST TRAVELED Mr. Hannes MOST SYMPATHETIC Mrs. Howell MOST COLLEGIATE Mr. Kline FRIENDLIEST Mrs. Mathias MOST UNINHIBITED Mrs. McFarlane MOST DILIGENT MIRROR ADVISOR Mrs. Palminteri MOST AVID GOLFER Mr. Pontz BEST FRIEND OF NATURE Miss Schley MOST SOCIABLE Mr. Sheeley BEST LINGUIST Miss Sora GREATEST SINGLE MIND Mr. Stark MOST INCLINED TO QUIZZES Mr. Tenewitz MOST PROLIFIC Mr. Weiner BEST STORY-TELLER Mr. Woodbury 92 2Gaat Will tuti� ttfeatamrat We, the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Sixty-Three, being sound of body if not of mind, do hereby feave this, our last will and testament, to the students and faculty of our Alma Mater in the hope that she will not be irretrievably damaged by our departure. 1.

J. LLOYD BROWNING The Junior Night production of the Class of 1963 was the touching, exciting, and sometimes tragic story of a group of aspir- ing actresses. It vividly brought to life their dreams, successes, and frustrations. Written by George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber, Stage Door” has a cast of over thirty char- acters. Each experiences different emotions and reacts differently to the theatrical world. Some of the girls’ acting ambitions are ful- filled while others give up after the first few disappointments. Heading the cast were Lolly Shattuck as Jerry Canfield, Andrea Sil- ver as Jean Maitland, Harriet Reisen as Judith Canfield, and Anne Ashley as Kaye Hamilton. Others included were Diane Cyester as Linda Shaw, Bob Popkin as Adolph Gretzl, Mike Wilkinson as David Kingsley, Paul Bressman as Keith Burgess, and Richard Tauber as Jimmy Devereaux. Enthusiastically received by its audiences, Stage Door” will long be remembered as the first drama presented by a Junior Class at Columbia in recent years. — “©It? Mitt of GDttr Directed by MR. F. FREDERICK TRENT As the curtain went up on Thornton Wilder’s 'The Skin of Our Teeth,” pre- sented by the Class of 1964, many in the audience were unaware of what a thought- provoking evening was in store for them. They soon discovered that this unusual play, based on the author’s conception of the course of humanity, was not only entertain- ing and skillfully done, but also pertinent to contemporary world conditions. Heading the large and talented cast were Janice Brody as Sabina, Dale Kilpatrick as Mr. An- trobus, Margo Sendler as Mrs. Antrobus, Sandra Pashelinsky as Gladys Antrobus, and Alan Pollack as Henry Antrobus. Capably assisting Mr. Trent as student director was Judy Stern. The performance was one that will be looked back upon with pride for many years to come. “Ah, WtlhmtPHs!” Directed by MR. F. FREDERICK TRENT Ah, Wilderness!”, the sensitive and amusing story of an adolescent boy, was pre- sented by the Class of 1963 as its Senior Play. Written by Eugene O’Neill, reminis- cent of his own turbulent youth, Ah, Wil- derness!” proved to be a great success. Head- ing the talented cast were Walter Thrush and Candi Silva as Richard and Muriel, the young lovers, Hank Barre and Lolly Shattuck as Mr. and Mrs. Miller, Bob Cunningham, Libby Tucker, and Maxine Schreiber as their children, Richard Tauber as Mr. Mc- Comber, Bruce Green as Sid Davis, Carolyn Wendel as Lily Miller, Richard Gibboney as Wint Selby, and Diane Cyester as Nora, the maid. Assisting Mr. Trent as student directors were Regina Procida and Diane Cyester. Capably enacted and strikingly presented, Ah, Wilderness!” provided an enjoyable evening to all who attended. “iripimotf Directed by MR. J. LLOYD BROWNING Technical Director—Mr. F. Frederick Trent Lerner and Loewe’s Brigadoon,” presented as the 1963 All-School Production, is the story of two Americans, Tommy Albright and Jeff Doug- las, who stumble upon Brigadoon, a town not on the map. Two complete casts gave everyone who wished an opportunity to perform. Starring in the production were Don Hartman, Harvey Alter, Henry Kaney, Marc Sauer, Nancy Weinberg, Carol Bermel, Barbara West, Mary Cross, Ken Dorsch, Bob Graf, Ron Wallach, Tom Beck, Jackie Friedrichs, Holly Smith, John Hubley, Rich- ard Tauber, Sandra Pashelinsky, and Donna Post- weiler. The polished dancing, headed by Carole Schweid and Donna Feller enhanced the musical score, as well as did the choral and dramatic ex- cellence of the entire cast. Only the hard work of Mr. Browning and Mr. Trent could have organ- ized such a large cast and brought out the best in each performer. mm) pvviV cbccsc Directed by: Mr. Paul T.

HJB2 3FwitbaU Gkam 126 The Columbia football team had its most success- ful campaign of the last three years, finishing with a 6-2 record. The Cougars started with four exciting victories over Plainfield, Morristown, Orange, and Wayne; the first two requiring second half come- backs. In each of these games, the Cougar defensive rats” proved too much for any offense. With a 4-0 record, the Cougars were prepared to extend Mont- clair’s losing streak to three games, something which had never happened to a Clary Anderson team. With two minutes remaining in the game, Columbia led 6-0. Then, the aroused Mounties broke the Cougar defense for two long pass plays and a touchdown. Montclair converted its important extra point and the game ended with Montclair winning 7-6. In the next game, against East Orange, all-state back Jim Oliver proved to be too much for Columbia, as East Or- ange won, 20-7. However, the Cougars showed cour- age and came back to cop their next two games over Kearny and an improved West Orange squad. Sev- eral individual stars emerged throughout the season. Co-Captains Stan Constantin and Mike Cirasella ran well throughout and received much help from Bob Terry and sophomore Marc Small. Ed Hume proved himself a fine passer with Robby Meyers, his favor- ite target, catching many touchdown passes. The defense was led by all-state tackle Bob Ritchwood, all-county center Dick Virtue, Richard Coppola, Len Bierstein, Larry Bussin, and Gordon Burns. Seniors Bruce Reynolds, Richard Skillman, Bill Lawrence, Jeff Schwartz, and Dave Drake all gave fine perform- ances for the Cougars. The Junior Varsity was 5-1 and they, along with the returning lettermen, should form another fine team next year.

The team captured the Big Ten Championship for the seventh consecutive year and took a second place in the Essex County Championships. Perhaps the most outstanding individual performance of the season took place when junior Bill McClure set a new school record in Branch Brook Park during the Essex County meet. Also outstanding in the County meet were Co-Captain John Payne and junior John War- field. Co-Captain Payne placed thirteenth out of 287 runners in the State meet to lead the team to a re- spectable fifth place finish. Co-Captain Bob Cun- ningham, John Hill, Bill McEntree, Bill Richardson, Larry Kidder, and Bob Looby each gave several out- standing performances for the Cougars. With several fine juniors and members of a Junior Varsity squad that only lost one meet returning next season, Co- lumbia can look forward to another outstanding cross country team. 128 Front row (from left to right) : John Hoffman, David Froehlich, Neil Krug, Gary Winkel, Co-Captain Jeff Stern, Co-Captain Bob Button, Richard Marantz, Ken Mayers, Dave Patrick, Ronald Ginsburg, Roger Koplin, Tony Enright.

The team lost several of last year’s top stars through graduation and was unable to equal last year’s 4-8 mark. The team tied two games, while losing ten. Many of these losses were by one or two points, which indicates that with a few breaks, the soccer team would have had a few victories. Despite its poor record, the team had several outstanding per- formers. Neil Krug and Co-Captains Jeff Stern and Bob Button played fine games for Columbia through- out the season. John Hoffman, Gary Winkel, Richard Marantz, Ronnie Ginsburg, and Ken Mayers all gave many commendable performances. Although twelve' members of the team are graduating, there are many experienced juniors and sophomores returning. With two years of varsity play, the Columbia soccer team should be well on its way to a winning season. 129 Front row (from left to right): Doug Bergman, Greg Manning, Captain Sid Feldman, Bill Sheridan, John McCracken.

This year those same sophomores were seniors and they produced the best record a Columbia basketball team has ever compiled. The Cougars finished the regular season with a 14-4 record, and then, for the first time in 33 years, participated in the State Tourna- ment. Surprising all sports experts, Columbia de- feated East Orange in the first round, upset favored Big Ten Champion Bloomfield in the semi-finals, and then finally lost in a close game to Essex County and City Champion Central, 44-40. In this game, the Cougars held Central to their lowest point total of the season, and were the first team to out-rebound them. Thus the final record was 16-5. Comprised mostly of seniors, the team had no one star. How- ever, 6'5 Jimmy Altengarten led the team in scoring and rebounding. Jim’s 20 rebounds against Central in the sectional finals and his 26 points in the first- round win over East Orange were his best showings of the year. 6 4 John Payne was second in scoring and rebounding, with 20 points in the regular-season defeat of East Orange being his most significant out- put of the season. 6’5 Steve Novick rebounded well all year, with 15 rebounds in the Bloomfield upset being his best performance. The backcourt was shared by Captain Sid Feldman, Bill Sheridan, and Dave Lowenstein. Feldman was the team’s third leading scorer with a 10 point per game average, with Sheri- dan and Lowenstein also scoring well on many occa- sions. John McCracken, a 6'3 senior saw much action, with the second West Orange game being his finest. 6'4 Craig Zwillman, also a senior, rebounded well and scored 10 points in Columbia’s first Orange vic- tory. Coach Fred Booth deserves a great deal of credit for bringing the team to its high rating. With 6'6 John Kempler, Greg Manning, and Doug Bergman returning, next year’s team should pick up where this year’s left off. 130 Front row (from left to right): Mike Cylenica, Captain Howie Kestenbaum, AI Provini, Vic Esposito, John HiJJ, Bob Jung, Ken Samson, Dave Linke, Bob Terry, Ed Hume, Marc Small, Ken Rosevear.

The Cougar grapplers .opened the season with four victories and then lost two of their next three on one and two point decisions to Cran- ford and Union, two Union County wrestling powers. The team then won their remaining three, with the last being a victory over highly rated Springfield. 1962 state runner-up. Captain Howie Kestenbaum, 1962 district champ Bob Terry, and John Hill played important roles in all the matches. Seniors A1 Pto- vini, Ken Sampson, Bob Jung, Dave Linke, Jeff Golden, Steve Fisher, Ken Rosevear, and Glen Brown all contributed greatly to the team’s fine record. The wrestling team fared well in post season tournaments, finishing second to Union in the districts. Kesten- baum, Hill and Terry emerged as district champs, with sophomore Harold Garwin, Fisher, junior Ed Hume, and sophomore Marc Small taking second place honors. Several other sophomores and juniors showed fine promise during the varsity season. They along with the returning lettermen will undoubt- edly form the nucleus of another powerful Columbia wrestling team next year. 132 Front row {from left to right): Bob Read, Wayne Hill, Cliff Tichenor, Don Illingworth, Dick Virtue, Co-Captain Nate Lessin, Co-Captain Dave Cosman, Bob Livermore, Bruce Reynolds, Richard Donniez, Abraham Jelin, Ben Morris, Stephen Lake.

The Cougars were 8-3 in dual meets, losing only to Group A State Champions Westfield, twice and to Group B State Champions West Orange. The swimmers achieved at least four of their victories over perennially powerful teams. North Plainfield, Irv- ington, Plainfield, and Mountain Lakes all fell to the Cougar natators. Members of the Class of 1963 played vital roles in helping the team attain its fine record. Co-Captain Nate Lessin established him- self as the best backstroker in the state: He won the 100-yard event with an amazing time of 59.7 seconds, a new school record. Co-Captain Dave Cossman also broke a school record, with a time of 59.9 seconds in the 100-yard butterfly. Seniors Bob Livermore and Bruce Reynolds placed 3rd and 5th respectively in the diving competition to add more points to the Cougars’ third place finish in the state meet. With Cliff Tichenor, a sophomore who took a fourth place in the state meet, Bob Nadel- berg, Mike Silverman, and Jon Genser returning next year, Columbia fans can look forward to an- other excellent swimming season. 133 Front row (from left to right): Mike Cirasella, Joe Siman, Jim Altengarten, Howard Klein, Captain Dave Ro- mano, Bob Dunphey, Pete O’Brien, Eugene Matthews, Ralph Riccio. Back row (from left to right) : Coach Jack Fletcher, Bob Sausville, Richard Feeley, Richard Skillman, Sam Ornstein, Herb Beucher, Ricky Crossman, Alan Zeller, Andy Greene, Bruce Reynolds, Manager Kevin Golding. 1992 HaarhaU ©ram Although the 1961 baseball team finished with only three wins and fifteen losses, Coach Jack Fletcher gave his sophomores and juniors valuable experience. This experience paid off in 1962 as the team compiled one of its finest records, finishing with twelve wins, six losses, and one tie. The season started with the team defeating powerful Union 6-3 and tying Thomas Jefferson 5-5. Then the Cougars won their next six games in a row enroute to their fine record. Although the team lost in the first round of the state tournament, Coach Fletcher should be commertded for bringing out the great improvement in the team’s play. Captain-elect for 1963 Joe Siman led the team throughout the season, winning all- county and all-state honors. Captain Dave Romano, along with seniors Bob Dunphey, Herb Beucher, Howie Klein, Alan Zeller, Andy Greene, and Ricky Crossman, played fine ball in helping the Cougars attain their record. Since the starting team was com- prised mostly of juniors, Coach Fletcher can certainly plan on improving even more on the team’s perform- ance. With players like Ralph Riccio, pitchers Pete O’Brien and Richard Skillman, Mike Cirasella, and all-stater Siman returning, Columbia can look toward the 1963 baseball season with high hopes. 134 bront row {from left to right): Eric Tenenbaum, Steve Granet, Steve Ross, John Begasse. Back row (from left to right): Co-Captain Dave Yankowitz, Co-Captain Jerry Palmieri, Coach George Pontz. 19B3 (Mf ©ram Improving slightly on last year’s nine wins, two losses, and two ties, the 1962 golf team finished with ten wins, three losses, and one tie. The team re- ceived its leadership from seniors John Begasse and Co-Captains Dave Yankowitz and Jerry Palmieri. Two of the team’s losses were to a powerful Bloom- field team on identical 8-10 scores. The final match was a tie with Plainfield 9-9. Coach Pontz also re- ceived fine performances throughout the year from Juniors Eric Tenenbaum, Steve Granet, and Steve Ross. With the latter three returning next year to provide the leadership and experience needed, per- haps the Columbia golf team can average its two losses to Bloomfield and continue to improve on its already fine record. 135 Front row (from left to right) : Manager Andrew Nosti, Victor Esposito, Bob Wiesner, William McClure, Ross Weber, Eric Hildebrand, Bob Henricks, Larry Hunt, John Warfield, Jim Landua, John Herfert, Art Simmons, Robert Richardson, Ed Nowak, Robert Livermore.

The Cougars won five dual meets and one triangular meet. The team also did well in several group meets. In the Big Ten Conference meet, the track team finished second out of ten teams, scoring 27 points. In the Essex County Championships, the Cougars finished fifth. In the Big Ten Relays the team finished third, taking a first place in the one-mile relay. In the Inter-Oranges Relays, the Cougars took first place honors in the 440-yard and two-mile relays. Two highlights of the season were the breaking of Phil Hartung’s school records in the discus and the shotput which had stood since 1952. Bob Ritchwood bettered the former record of 152' by throwing 160'5 in the Big Ten meet, while Sam Fortunato bettered the latter record of 54'11 with a put of 56'6V$ . Co-Captains Jim Tornillo and Jay Wood- bury ran well throughout the season. Juniors Bob Livermore and Ritchwood both placed in the State meet to score 3 3 5 points for Columbia. Prospects were good for the 1963 season, with many return- ing lettermen to fill in for graduating seniors. 136 Front row (from left to right) : David Cossman, Henry Kaney, Captain Barry Helfmann, Dick Cohn, Larry Stevens, Rick Edelson. Back row (from left to right) : Manager Martin Earle, A1 Menner, Michael Silverman, John Badanes, Bill Mieth, Stephen Koller, Ken Kramer, Coach Warren Manhard. 1902 ©rtmta ©ram Unde the fine coaching of Mr. Manhard, the 1962 tennis team compiled a very respectable 11-3 dual match record. One of the losses was avenged in a second dual match, and the Cougars then avenged the other two dual match losses to Mill- burn by topping them in the state tournament by a 2-1 score. Captain Barry Helfmann led the team throughout the season with some excellent individual showings. Seniors Rick Edelson, A1 Menner, Bill Mieth, and Steve Koller also contributed to many of the team's victories. Junior Dave Cossman and sophomore John Badanes did an outstanding job as the first doubles team. Besides avenging Millburn, the team also defeated Bergenfield in the state tour- nament before' bowing out on a 1-2 loss to River Dell. With the fine performances given by the sophomores and juniors, Columbia and Coach Man- hard can look forward to 1963 as another fine season. 137 Standing (from left to right) : Sheila Neibart, Diane Lemer, Co-Captain Migsie Goodman, Co-Captain Martha Yourth, Joan Oppenheimer, Candy Silva.
