Through his efforts advancement has been made from the horse and buggy to the automobile, railroad, ship, and aeroplane, but, most important of all, he has used the knowledge given him by his forefathers to the greatest possible advantage, not only for his own welfare, but for the good of all man- kind. Cures have been found for most diseases, our standards of living have improved, there have been many inventions, industries have increased and automobiles, have been made to aid him in his search for more knowledge. tive to learn. Great development has taken place in his social activities, govern- ment, and cooperation on socialized learning. Today he is not satisfied merely with elementary training, but he strives to better himself in every way possible. Years ago man had to obtain most of his education by reading borrowed books in the dim candlelight. However, as the years have passed, many inven- tions and improvements, such as gas, electricity, steam, printing, trains, busses, and automobiles have been made to aid him in his search for more knowledge. Besides these, many schools and colleges have been built to enable man to ad- vance in whatever field he chooses. If he does not have the opportunity of at- tending school during the day-time, it is now possible for him to receive the same education at night. At first man went to school primarily to learn reading, writing, and arithmetic. Today his studies consist of many more necessary subjects. He is trained not only academically but also socially. His progressive education is based upon the spontaneous activities and the social participation of all stu- dents. Through the different social activities he learns how best to adjust him- self to society. From these accomplishments he attains great happiness. He is taught to share in a give-and-take experience. Where before school was a preparation for living, today it is life itself. Looking back through the pages of history, we can readily conceive the trials and hardships that our forefathers had undergone to bring about these wonderful changes. These changes have been made by diligent, ambitious, en- ergetic men and women. However, many more improvements remain to be made in all the fields of life, and if every man continues to make a sincere ef- fort to succeed, we shall be progressing to a finer and better world not only for ourselves but for our posterity.

Dalstrom, a native of Jersey City, graduated from School No. 15. She attended Henry Snyder High School before coming to D. A. E. H. S. While in Dickinson Evening, she was an active mem- ber of the Owl Staff, Prom Committee, Finance Committee, Pin and Ring Committee, Sports Circle and Tennis Club. Her cooperation with the faculty and her serious attitude toward her studies revealed her sincerity and perseverance. The diligence with which she worked, together with a pleasant disposition, exemplified a serene character by which she won many friends. The Senior Class and the students wish her success in the future. JUNE This year's Valedictorian, Anna Stahl, has the distinction of graduating with one of the highest averages ever attained by a student of Dickinson Accredited Evening High School. Anna, a native of the City, attended our Public Schools and in 1936 entered Dickinson Evening. School spirit was one of her outstand- ing characteristics, for no school activity ever lacked her whole hearted support. Her ambition to become an interpreter will be realized when she finishes her course at New York University, where she intends to major in Spanish. As a means of diversion, her chief hobby is bowling. Anna is so adept at this sport that she has had the honor of bowling with famous women bowlers of the country. Wie are glad to have known you, Anna, and trust that the com- ing years hold as much joy as we wish for yo11. Your vivid personality and warmth of character lend promise to a future of happiness. MARY E. WHITE FRANK VOINIER JANUARY JUNE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE AWARDS JANUARY Mary E. White was selected by thc Committee of the Faculty as the most out- standing Senior from the January Class. This distinction entitles her to become the recipient of the meritorius service award. Her spirited and enthusiastic interest in extra curricular activities. her attrac- tive personality, and her high scholastic standing were primary factors in the com- mittee's decision. Miss Wllite was born in Bayonne, N. J. and took up residence in .Jersey City at school age, first attending St. Paul's Parochial School and upon graduating was Salutatorian of her class. She then attended St. Paulis Academy for a short time and later entered Dickinson Accredited Evening High School where slle has distinguished herself as an honor student for the past three years. Although she travels over seventy miles to and from school and business daily in order to receive her high school diploma, Mary has given much time and effort to the activities of the school which includes Editor of the Owl, member of the History Club, Sports Circle. Speakers' Club and Ping Pong Club. She also served on the Social Committee of the Senior Class. Mary's intention is to pursue a course of study at Fordham University which will qualify her as a social service worker. With a pleasing disposition and a magnetic personality such as hers. she should be able to accomplish all her desires. The Senior Class of 1940 wishes her the best of luck and happiness in her endeavors. JUNE The executive committee award is given each year to the senior who in the committee's opinion has done most for Dickinson Accredited Evening High School. This yearis award goes to Frank Voinier and the committee is to be congratulated for their excellent choice. Frank, a life-long resident of Jersey City attended the Public Schools of Jersey City and entered Dickinson Evening in 1937. ln this school he has been actively en- gaged in many extra-curricular activities. and in recognition of his ambitious nature he was chosen editor of the Owl, a position which he has competently discharged. His amiable personality has been felt by all who have known him. To you, Frank, we extend all our wishes for success in the pursuit of your studies at Rutgers University, and in the future. F orty-five F arty-six JOHN KRAMER BETTY PETERS JANUARY JUNE ALUMNI AWARD JANUARY John Kramer, president of the January Class. is this year's recipient of the Alumni..Association award. given to the student with a high scholastic standing for participation in extra-curricular activities and for all around good-fellowship. John, although born in Austria. came to America when quite young and com- pleted his elementary schooling at Roosevelt School in Union City. He entered D. E. in 1934 and, after four and a half years of hard work, completed his course in January, 1940. During his stay with us he has ben active in many fields and has made many friends. He served as Assistant Editor of the Night Watch, President of the Bowling Club, and was also active in the Tennis Club, Tennis Team, Economic Club, Debat- ing Society, French Club. and the General Organization. Johnis reco1'd al D. E. has been enviable, and his future plans are built around a course of study at N. Y. U. upon the completion of which he hopes to become a lawyer. lt is with deep sincerity that we of the Senior Class wish John good luck and a speedy realization of his ambitions. ORATORICAL AWARD JUNE Betty leters, a member of the Senior Class, was selected in Competition to represent Dickinson Evening in the John Marshall Oratorical Contest. Betty vin- dicated the judges decision by placing third in the finals held at this Law School. A life long resident of Vfeehawken, Betty attended Woodrow Wilson High School there before entering D. A. E. H. S. Although she is happily employed in her vocation as a model, Betty s ambition leans toward the buying field. To further this desire, she will enter N. Y. U. in expectation of becoming a dress buyer for a large department store. We, your classmates, take this opportunity to wish you, Betty, success and happiness in all your future enterprises. I JOHN CAPECCHI POETRY AWARD On Friday evening, May 3rd, 1940, the annual poetry festival of the Casa Italiana, Colum- bia University, took place under the auspices and direction of Prof. Prezzolini, head of the department at that institution. Most of the high schools of the New York metropolitan area and many others from the states of he northeastern seaboard were invited to attend. The Circolo Italianoi' of D. A. E. H. S. also received an invitation, and Mr. L. Rizzuti, faculty adviser for the club and teacher of Italian at Dickinson Evening immediately set about making preparation for sending a representative body to the festival. This festival consisted of the recitation in Italian of a poem hy a classical Italian author in which single representatives from each of the various schools competed for highest honors. Prizes were to be awarded to those delivering the best recitationg pronunciation, interpretation, diction, and the quality of the poem chosen were considered in deciding the winners. To carry the colors for D. E., Mr. Rizzuti chose Mr. .Iohn Capecchi. The poem selected was Invito d,Un Solitarioi' fThe Call of the Hermitl by Vincenzo Monti. Close to forty students of Italian at D. E. and members of the 6'Circolo',, went to give their moral support. When the eventful night arrived, Mr. Capecchi swayed by the force, beauty and truth of the poet's lines delivered a recitation that was applauded for fully two minutes, and carried home to D. A. E. H. S. the highest honors for high schools. This was an enviable prize when one considers that there were close to forty high schools represented. SCHOLARSHIP AWARD No one better than John Capecchi can exemplify the ideal student. In him we find that unusual combination of student high in scholastic attainments and foremost in extra-curricular activities so often sought and seldom found. All along he has been among the leaders in class standing. Ninety. to him. a mere object to stretch out the hand and touch-no ruthless honing -just the same ease. the same graceful acquiring of the thing. He is a musician of remarkable facility and yet he scorns the study of music-that popular refuge of the Latin race. He is a poet of no mean ability but he has no desire to re- move Dante Alighieri from his pedestal in the Hall of Fame. Never more just was one acclaimed as marked above average in any class. And it rebounds to the credit of Dickinson Evening and the class of UI0, that the College of Arts, New York University, has chosen him the winner of a six year scholarship, a fitting recognition of merit. Unless you know John you may not be able to realize the reason for this distinction. Once you do know him, however, you will appreciate the alert mind, the likeable disposition, and the quality of leadership which lie behind his quiet exterior. Only then will you realize that he is a man of few words because his manner of expression is not hy words, but by deeds. Long may Dickinson Evening bask in the reflected glory of this apparent recognition of .Iohn's worth! F arty-seven O R G A N I Z A T I O N S Fifty EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Its duties are to advise and guide all the extra-curricula activities of the school. It has been previously acknowledged that actions taken by the control- ling groups in extra-curricula activities are subject to approval of the Executive Committee and the Principal of the School. While considerable degree of freedom has been allowed in the manage- ment of the affairs of the many clubs, it is likely that the ever-growing interests of the School may demand closer supervision by the controlling groups and the Executive Committee to avoid conflicting aims or too wide a range of activity.

Mr. Robert Salmon For the success of this worthy group go garlands to our Faculty Adviser, Mr. Robert Salmon. His untiring efforts to fill each meeting night with worth- while endeavor have warmed his presence to a grateful membership. What we have applied here will be a stalwart ally to us on many occa- sions. Through the trials of life our paths will be less difficult, for by self- expression we find a door of life opening to conditions that heretofore, for us, never existed. ln social and business worlds we may stand on a plane of equality, immune, to a great degree, to man's nemesis, fear of expressing one's self. To he able to rise on one's own feet and convey coherent, logical, and timely thoughts is the source of gratifying delight to a speaker. Our time having been limited to one hour a week, we set about to ac- complish the ends toward which we have strived in unison. ln the social calen- dar reposes the past history of an evening dance, of a laughable social, and of weekly informal gatherings. The balancing influence records an open forum, heated discussions, and an appealing one-act play. We concluded this semester with joy in the realization that those hours were truly well spent.

Valentine Scopolletti Secretary ....... ................. S arah Vespia Vice- Pres. .... B ernadine Annichiarico Treasurer .................... Fred Cristiani Faculty Adviser .... Mr. Leonard Rizzuti The aim of MII Circolo Italiano is to stimulate an interest in the Italian language and literature, thereby affording the students a splendid opportunity of becoming acquainted with the Italian language and culture. The meetings are often conducted in Italian, thus enabling the student to perfect himself in the spoken language. Enjoyable programs of entertainment Roller skating, Italian entertainments, and the are presented by committees. uPoetry Festival at the Casa Italiana of Columbia University are a part of the social activities in which the students have participated during the academic year. Il Circolo Italiano will not disperse during the vacation months, but it will endeavor to keep its members in close contact by sponsoring other activi- ties, the first of which will be a boat ride. It is largely through the efforts of Mr. Rizzuti that the club has flourished so successfully. - THE FRENCH CLUB President .............. Christopher Yorio Secretary ...................... Phyllis Koziel Vice-President .............. Helen Cramer Treasurer ............,... Frances Verducci Faculty Adviser ........................ Mr. Magee The French Club derives its membership from that part of the student body of this school that is engaged in the study of the French language. Its aims and purposes are to encourage the students of French to take a more active part in their study of the language by having them engage in outside activities that are conducted by the club. This enables them to acquire a better under- standing and knowledge of the language, customs, ideas, and culture of the French people. During the term many trips to places of French interest were made. Out- standing among these activities were the visits to the French Church of St. John de Baptist in New York City where the sermons are delivered in the French language, and a dinner at the renowned Cafe Louis XIV in Radio City. This year the members have seen many motion pictures which were produced in France. The Club has sponsored weekly the recordings of operas in French and other languages. As a further extension of this activity it plans during the com- ing season to attend some of the performances at the Metropolitan Opera House.

During the term enlightening lectures have been heard, and motion pictures of Engi- neering feats have been shown. A high light of the year was a visit to the Casey Jones School of Aeronautics. The Society has flourished under the tireless guidance of Mr. Duckworth, the Faculty Adviser. Fifty-seven F ifty-eight THE EVENING HIGH SCHOGL GLEE CLUB Faculty Adviser ....................

Faculty Adviser The Alumni Association, instituted as an organized group in Dickinson Evening High School in April, 1930, celebrated its tenth year with an anniver- sary Dinner and Dance at the Hotel New Yorker on Saturday, April 13. The Misses Helen and Sadie Falvey served as co-chairmen. Another honor was bestowed upon the Association when an alumnus, William Koprowski of the Class of '30, who has gained fame and prestige as a pianist both here and abroad, presented a piano recital on the evening of November 18 in the school auditorium. Another innovation was the formation of a newspaper by an alumni group. The guiding hand of Steve Stripp brought it to the high standard of having it acclaimed by all. The energetic and untiring efforts of Paul Brennan, president of 1939-40 was brought to an abrupt and temporary end when he collapsed in January, bringing along a mournful note of sorrow. He promised, with the true spirit of the Alumni Association, to recover speedily and to maintain the ideals of the organization. Tad Tulin, who sponsored many notable lectures, has continued the pre- sentation of Town Hall Forums and has resumed Lecture Series. The Alumni Association cordially invites the Seniors of the classes of January '40 and June '40, who automatically become members of the Alumni Association, to attend all meetings and to uphold the principles and functions of the Alumni Association. ALUMNI CHATTER Sincere wishes for a speedy recovery are extended to Paul Brennan, former president. His cheerfulness and friendly manner have been greatly missed. John Burke is now president because of Paul's prolonged illness. You can't hide a thing from Kay Gillooly '37-she is attached to the X-ray department at St. Francis Hospital. Charley Bauerdorf and Grace Beck have decided two can live as cheaply as one. After a lapse of four years, Charles Imbornone is again giving our school a break by attending classes. Kay Gelsinon's literary ability has graced the pages of the Alumni News recently. Mickey Lamont and Louis lmbornone are practically the pillars of Dickinson Evening. Is it an endurance contest? Ray Duffy, '37, has been supplying sweet music via his 'eMusic Box at the Tuesday nite dances here in the school. Anthony Russo, of the class of '37, has recently joined the Royal Order of Benedicts. The lovely Catherine Soldier was the reason for his membership in that society. Mickey Lamont almost had a perfect score--having held every oiiice but sergeant-at-arms -but he declined. Jerry Callahan has made a name for himself as a debator at John Marshall. Helen and Sadie Falvey deserve a vote for the fine work on the tenth anniversary dance. Tony Calabro will be another Fred Astaire one of these years if he keeps going at the same rate. Herb Gage is quite a Casanova at the school dances. Tony Gargiulo has more names for his orchestra than instruments-e. g. Tony Galbo, Teddy Garland and-what next? A Siren is uSmiles Sabo as she still causes a riot among the fellers. Aspirant for Tin Pan Alley is Solle Peck. He has all the local Tommy Dorseys and Artie Shaws trying out his numbers. The call of the footlights has seized Catherine Thuring and Frank Weiss as was proved in their last play called Sulphur and Molasses . The romance between Catherine Sauter, '39, and Carmine Seafidi, '37, is still in bloom with friends waiting for the wedding bells to ring. Catherine Tuccio, '38, now Mrs. Peter Melyk, will be celebrating her first wedding anniversary next September. The engagement of Nora Ostertag, '39, to Woodrow Wilson, also a Dick- inson Eveningite, was recently announced. Louis Vaccarella has been a regular uOwl since his graduation in '33, as he has been working nights ever since. Ian Jamieson, President of January, '38 class, doesn't look like 5'.lamiesot1 without that brush above his upper lip. Victoria Costanzo, outstanding for her literary work at D. E., is com- pleting her second year at Seton Hall this semester. Ask Louis lmbornone for any information regarding Betty Cacchioli, '39, He is sure to know. Rose Rosenblum, '38, known for her activity at D. E., is now studying at N. Y. U. Mary Lukaszewska, smiling just as sweetly as ever, is seen about the corridors. Anne Donato, January, '38, is in her third year of training at the Green- ville Hospital and is making good progress. Anne De Pascalis, '39, is planning a trip abroad in the future but is waiting for the European g'entanglement to untangle. Sixty-one S P O R T S 1 if 4 W G Y NM ,l :cw 9 .

Dollard issued the first call for candidates early in October and sixty boys answered his call. Following two months of intensive practice, they opened their season on December 8, 1939, against a powerful Alumni Team and scored a brilliant 26-22 victory before a large crowd of enthusiastic rooters. Showing fine team play and a strong defense, the Varsity emerged tri- umphant in their first four games, losing their first game to the powerful St. Francis Frosh in Brooklyn. After winning their first six out of seven games, the team suffered a let-down and could win only one of their next seven games. The following boys: Coyle, Zimmerman, Wago, Duffy, Holihan, Johnson, and McGee deserve to be congratulated for their play during the year. L- v TENNIS Tennis is making rapid strides at Dickinson Evening High School as an outstanding sport. This progress is largely owed to the splendid coach, Frank Beneccolti, and to the interest aroused in this sport by the Tennis Club. A large squad began practice in the new gymnasium early in March. After many weeks of training Mr. Beneccolti reduced the squad to the following members: Robert Knowles, Heywood Miller, Patrick Malone, and Thomas Suchitavo. lmbued with the enthusiasm of their manager, Anthony Mauriello, who has arranged an excellent schedule, this year's tennis team should set a mark for future 4'Owl', players.

Beneccolti The track teamis activities have not been numerous, but they have been effective. The team has not been fully entered in many track meets, but the in- dividual members have won many honors in the Metropolitan area. On Lincoln's Birthday, Hal Edwards was entered in the Finnish Benefit Track meet, which was held at the Jersey City Armory. With all the great com- petition against him he tied for first place. Ed Slodowski has also been the victor in some of the local meets in the discus events. At the same time we can- not forget our manager, John Burke, who has taken several places in the pole vault. Some of the other outstanding members of the squad are: Harold Am- rock, Nick Carlucci, Edward Zalewski, James Paraskeva, Nick Costedo, Louis Gizzi, Al McComb, Bob Trott, Anthony Teleisa, and Charles Mesivech. These boys have worked hard with Mr. Beneccolti both in the New Gym and at Pershing Field. This group will be a good base for next year's track team. With the enthusiasm that has been shown, we hope next year to have not only as good a team, but even a better one. THE TENNIS CLUB President ....................

Outdoor tennis play is planned for Saturday afternoons in the Spring. Sixty-seven Sixty-eight w l SPORTS CIRCLE CLUB President ......... ...... A l Lovaglio Secretary ..... ........

This new circle has devoted its time to the group sports of roller skating, cycling, hiking, tohogganing, skiing, ice-skating, dancing, and swimming. The popularity of the club will he maintained throughout the summer with many outings to nearby resorts. As a result, when school is resumed, the Sports Circle will be off to a flying start. And now, as the curtain of time falls on the final act of this school year, we, the members, look hack to a year which will not he forgotten. THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the January Class of 1940 of the Dickinson Accredited Evening High School, though somewhat fatigued by our incessant mental toil, yet still of sound mind and understanding, do hereby make and publish this, our last will and testament. All other wills and testaments are hereby revoked. To the Principal, Mr. 'l'. G. Mer adden, we bequeath sincere gratitude for his efforts to further the indispensable condition for solemn ideals of the Dickinson Evening High School. To the Vice-Principal, Mr. Brogan, we leave our wishes for greater suc- cess for his guidance through many diihcult problems.

Mr. Coffey, our Owl Adviser, we leave Blue Orchids for his aid and perseverance in producing the Owl book. To the Student Body-can openers to be used when leaving busses on return from school. iWe individually leave the following to the students of Dickinson Evening to be granted only if the traditions of school spirit and loyalty are carried on. Vincent Quinn and Eleanor Dalstrom leave their dancing ability to the greater portion of the Juniors, who, according to the rest of the school, need it. Charles Sismilich leaves his large understanding, Qi.e.j his shoes, to any freshman who can afford to hire Diesel Engines for them. John Kramer leaves all his dropped subjects to the Juniors who will probably do the same with them. Gladys Morrisett leaves her ability to be a sport to Ann Kozlowski. Put it to good use Ann. Carol Blake is leaving her ability to win friends by her sincerity to all students. Lillian Waraksa leaves her good taste to the Juniors who are always wearing those gaudy clothes. Stephen Lapansky leaves his ability to gather and circulate news to the Night Watch. Amelia Tarby leaves her ability to become the center of attraction to Betty Kaczerawski. Mary Keating leaves her contagious smile to Phyllis J. Koziel. Robert De Lorenzo leaves his ability to attend classes regularly and punctually to Adele Gaffney. Anthony Petrocci leaves his ability of thinking of good excuses in tight spots to those slow-witted Juniors. .lohn Matusovic leaves his knowledge of basketball, as well as his ability to play., to the whole D. A. E. H. S. Basketball team of 1941-42. Ann Clancy leaves her charming self to the next lovely maiden. Albert Moltedo leaves his mixture of books, telephone numbers, and ad- dresses to Alfonse Bruno. Herbert Leavy, being sane in mind and body, leaves his cheerful disposi- tion to Joseph Hastie. m The Senior Class Officers leave their worn-out brains to the incoming o cers. Donald Dykes leaves his collection of stars and planets in Mr. Lillis, room for future use. Betty Gyula leaves her honesty with Mary Davis. To all future classes: As fine a faculty as the present one and all the happy memories that we carry with us when we leave these portals. To all graduates: We bequeath the happy privilege of returning to this school as post graduates. In witness whereof, we, the said testators, have hereunto set our hand and seal this date in the year of our Lord, 1940. CL A SS OF JANUARY, 1940. Wimesses LORETTA KLUKow1cz ELEANOR DALSTROM AGNES GERAGHTY To To Sixty-nine GYM ACTIVITIES Undoubtedly, you have seen the words, Mens Sana in Corpore Sane, inscribed on various gymnasia. The English translation is: NA sound mind in a sound body. The fact that this adage was first written in Latin is proof of the early Romans' desire for their physical well-being. As unquenchable as their thirst was for knowledge, we learn from our study of history that health was second to nothing. Athletics, therefore, occupied a primary place. How much greater is our need today, with the fast pace at which we travel, for athletics. Certainly, this need is more pronounced in an evening school. In order to maintain its scholastic status, Dickinson must insist that its students attend classes five nights a week. Since the student carrying a full schedule would not be able to attend school and to engage in much outside athletic work at the same time, the burden of providing an athletic program fell on the authorities of Dickinson Accredited Evening High School. The athletic program at Hilltop compares favorably with any other school of like nature, both as to the sincerity of their endeavor and to the vary- ing activities of the program. The success of the teams will be found in the fol- lowing pages, but let us take justified pride in discussing the many activities of the program. In the first part of the school year the athletic calendar is basket- ball, both inter-scholastic and intra-mural. Our school basketball team plays the cream of the crop university freshmen teams in the New York area, in ad- dition to combating formidable secondary schools, and the intra-mural loop is always a bee-hive of activity. Also in the winter season the wrestlers and gym- nasts may be seen developing themselves in their respective sports. As soon as the weather permits, Dickinson Accredited Evening High School colors are sported on the cinder paths and the tennis courts, both of which sports are en- gaged in interscholastically. The gymnasium does not become dormant in the latter months of the school term. Quite the opposite, it is more active during these months because of the intra-mural softball league. The crowning event of the softball season finds the league leaders attempting to administer a trounc- ing to the faculty. The outstanding feature of the entire program is that every competitor makes, at least, an intra-mural team. Certainly the social benefits, as well as the physical improvement in athletics, will give to the participants the will to win., the congeniality, yes, even the ability to be defeated gracefully. In closing, we pay tribute to the various athletic coaches, for their efforts in making Dickinson Accredited Evening High School a more enjoyable place to attend.

SECOND: To the members of the faculty, we bequeath our sincere grati- tude for their willing and ceaseless aid. THIRD: To the Senior-to-be: In order to make your final year as en- joyable and as happy as ours has been, we individually leave: 1. Frank Voinier leaves his mustache to Charles Hartman. 2. Anna Stahl leaves all her E's to the physiology classes. 3. In order to make the public speaking classes more exciting, Josephine Goworek leaves her chewing gum to any one designated by the Senior Class. 4. So that future Senior classes will not be blinded by the glare of light from a certain man's head, John McShane leaves his curly hair. 5. Angela Ambrose leaves her fur jacket to all future flirts. 6. August Zybas leaves his headaches to the future Senior President. 7. Betty Peters leaves her smile to the Pepsodent Company. 8. The Knights of the Senior Class leave all their bow ties to John Reece. 9. James Brooks leaves his nights out with Ken Jones to Joe Burns. 10. L. M. Doherty leaves his vocabulary to the public speaking class. 11. Al Moore leaves his highlight affairs to Paul Bitterly. 12. Helen Haynes leaves her sweet manner to Betty Pope. 13. We leave the remainder of our property, including the old and new gym, auditorium and classrooms to D. A. E. H. S. In witness whereof, We, the Class of June, 1940, have placed our names and do declare this to be our LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT, this twentieth day of June, 1940. CLASS OF JUNE, 1940 Witnesses 5 JOHN MCSHANE V FRANK J. VOINIER PHYLLIS J. Koznsl. Seventy-five Tay by 'Day lt is an irksome work and task For us to bid farewell and pass From this our school of happy memories On to distant fields and new activities. On Monday night though blue it seems Attendance records soar and teachers beam, Classes are crowded and pupils respond Whether its lessons or the next Prom. On Tuesday night the jitterbugs assembled To dance to music full of crescendos Conservative dancing was simply taboo For the Lindy-Hoppers were on review. On Wednesday night the tennis crowd met To practice on getting balls over the net That hackhand stroke was weak we learn But to be 'aehampsw is our only concern. On Thursday night the speakeris club convened With debates and arguments and theories supreme Speakers convincing and speakers meek All at some time were up on their feet. On Friday night with books in hand Down the steps the students ran On terpsichorean pleasures inclined To he gay and let joy be unconfined. Our farewells we extend once again But our thoughts will ever remain Here where we have studied to gain Knowledge and friendships that never will wane. ELEANOR DALSTROM. There are plenty of roads to take after you leave school and hegin your travels. But there is just one right one, one which will take you to the place in life, which you are best fitted to occupy. Take that and, no matter how difficult you may find it, or how many others may pass you on the way, or block your path by slow travel, stick to it till you arrive. You may be tempted now and then to listen to your friends who tell you that some other destination is a hetter one, and that you should have chosen it. Pay no attention to this, and barring accidents, you will arrive and be success- ful or contented. SANFORD BRUSH. Cfflarewell The evening class of June, 1940, Is about to pass away, So we bequeath our best-our equity ln many things this parting day. Wordly goods we will not leave behind They figure naught with you, But attributes of heart and mind The tested gifts-and true. Dear teachers, for your kind endeavor You have our gratitude, Seventy-six 1 In memory we will keep you ever For the trouble you've withstood. Fellow graduates now at last we've come To the crossroads, so on leaving, For noble aims and deeds well done, We pledge ourselves to Dickinson Evening And to you the Class of '41 We give you for your own, Our place in dear old Dickinson, And best wishes to everyone.

I have often been asked, ' What is your hobby? Until very recently I had none, because participation in any one thing had never roused my interest to a pitch where I desired to continue only that to the exclusion of all others. In short. I found equal interest in all of my occupational and recreational activities. After a long span of eighteen years of absence from school, I have had the good fortune to begin and complete my high school career. Now, for the first time in my life, I can admit a bobby. E Education ! The Dickinson Accredited Evening High School with its well-planned system, its devoted teachers, its conscientious adviser, and last but not least, our Mr. McFadden, who has guided us with a sure and fatherly hand, have all in- stilled in me a eagerness to live and think only in terms of higher learning. I have acquired a hunger for knowledge and will spend the remainder of my life joyfully satisfying it. U At last I have found a hobby and real happiness, for only happiness can result if one pursues education as a hobby. Especially to the older scholar, it should bring a deeper satisfaction that one could normally be experienced at teen-age. If every student could feel, as I do, that education is fun and not a grind , he would be imbued with genuine enthusiasm for all his studies and thanksgiving for the privilege of attending Dickinson Accredited Evening High School.
