I shall begin by telling of the gala affair I attended on Wednesday night. My naive host was none other than that dashing young society leader, Clarence Rogers. Mary Saveska, social editor on the New York Post, covered this important event. By the way, Horold Gantert is a cub reporter on that some newspaper. My surprise was genuine when I recognized the chauffeur who wos sent for me. It was none other than Tony Ammiano. Arriving at the bonquet I was greeted by members of the Upper 400 , Steven Kucserka, Michael Maher, Ann Palumbo, Dorothy Lugara, and Joseph Auriemma. Sweet strains of music fell upon my ears os I joined the guest on the Twilight Terrace. The familiar figure of the orchestra leader wos Tony Spino. The well-known Silver Slippers brought everyone out onto the floor. That old crony of his, Joe Calello, wos raising Cain on his beloved trumpet. Noticing a group of my old friends, among whom were Dr. Rozsics and Nurse Kowalenko, I joined their porty. Fred Szeles, the intellect, and Mory Gronowicz, the lecturer, danced by. I noticed Mary's attractive coif- fure and later found out that it had been created by Anna Hutero. Carmelo Vorro, the famous linguist, ond Manuel Borges, owner of o large fishery, gracefully gliding olong. Christine Glovan, telephone operotor, and photo- grapher Dominick Spricigo, were another striking couple. Being told thot Walker Rucker was conducting a jam session in the Devil's Den, I eagerly headed in thot direction. On the way, I come face to foce with Lester Potterson, wealthy photographer, ond Olga Blazinski, his model. Upon entering the Den, I noticed Eddie Sanecki ond Walter Schneider, whom I later learned were private detectives. In the corner of the room were the orgumentive politicians. Bob Howard, Joe Ebler, ond Charles Joneska, debating on the passage of the Bachelors' Bill. I also spoke to John Strelecki, now a football coach at Notre Dame. Kay Knapp, young society matron, and Bennie Szomreta, football critic, accompanied him. During the course of the evening I was thrilled by the songs of that stunning nightingole Lea Paternoster. Dinner was soon announced by the butler, who was Raymond Minard. Taken in to dinner by comedian Joe Velardo, I found myself seated close to my host. I noticed that most of the guests had been my former classmates. Among them were recently-famed celebrities, such as Emily Gaubas, runner in the Olympics, who was accompanied by philanthropist Morcelino Vosquez; the German translators Dotty McArdle, Vinnie Ricozzi, and Mary Moraw- czynski with their escorts, Chris Velardo, philosopher. Jack Hart and Paul Becker, heads of the fire department and police department, respectively. Forty-eight On the right of our nost sot Helen Petreeko, famous authoress, who hod recently written the Pulitzer prize novel of the year, In With The Wind . Remember Frank Tortorello, Mr. Cole His firm printed the book, ond it was published by Stanley Kremzner. As you probably know In With The Wind is now being mode into o motion picture. Mildred Di Salvo and Charles Hertling have the leading roles ond Clifford Miller is connected with the production os one of the cameramen. After a toost had been proposed, our host introduced James Eng, who gave quite a speech on foreign affairs. He is being considered for the position of American Ambassador to China. Farther down the table I noticed a friend of mine, Helen Kasnewski, who is now the wife of, and co- pilot with, an aviator. They studied at the same school. Seated at the same end were Eddie Miller and Carmen Tonzola, businessmen; Robert Wujciok, former oil-American; Nick Attanasio, Sara Goldfinger and Sid Anderson, owners of large department stores. Tommy Eng, that old jokester, prepared a dish on a bet and as a re- sult he is talked obout everywhere as Tommy Eng, that famous Chinese chef. After dinner, I had quite a chot with those attractive young debs, Jennie and Genevieve Peger, who were attended by Charlie Zulla, a chemist, and Georgie Delli Santi, an inventor. Isn't it amazing to see how many of our classmates have ochieved their arduous aims? I know you will be just as interested in this news as I was. When I arrive in Newark, I will visit you at East Side High School. Sincerely yours, ROSANNE FARLEY Dear Miss Nelligan: I think this is an ideol time to tell you of some of the experiences I have had. Here is some news that may interest you. Lost night while on the Riviera I met Dot DeLuca and June Bacmeister with a party of friends. Those glamour boys Eddie Bacsik and Simon Zur- awski; also the lovoble old bachelors, Joe Hari and Gene Gatti, were members of the party. I was invited to join the party and we proceeded to the Casino. You can imagine how surprised I was to see so many of my friends taking part in the revue. Lucille Cavico, Dora Yatulis, Wanda Oboyski, Ann Damiano and Josephine Cardillo were some of the chorus girls. Rose Faenza and Helene Wolchuk did a unique duet. We also dis- covered that Frank Vasfailo, Vic Paselli and John Pepe were dancers at the same Casino. After discussing the good old doys for a time, I departed. Forty-nine The next morning was so beautiful that I decided to visit the Art In- stitute. Did you know that Lewis Ozimek is studying under the supervision of Mr. Main? I saw some of the most beautiful pieces of art in this building. Madame Helene Savoca is a fashion designer. She created a beautiful hos- tess gown for me which my friend, Anno Jones, modeled. She is known os being the most photogenic model in gay Poree . Lost month I also met o number of my school friends at Venice. While I sow Madame Butterfly in which Aldona Puchinskos ployed the leading role. Alice Bouer was also o member of the some cost. Marie Keifrider is the soloist at o famous church in Venice. Our songbird's singing is really swell. Enough of my experiences abroad. Now let me tell you about some of the old friends I met while touring the States. While I was touring I docked in San Francisco. There I was greeted by my chum Sophia Eustachwich. Her husband is the world's champion prize fighter and he was sailing on the same ship with me. Being invited to visit them in their new home, I accepted and was glad to see Mary Roskosz, another newly-wed, and Marge Crisafulli with her husband. The next day I went to the Country Club, and saw Millie Naporano, who was os lovely os ever. She is the wife of a Hollywood producer. Did you know that Della Di Marco, Chester Stroz, and Carmen Tonzola are successful Certified Public Accountants? Steven Sitek is the president of a firm where Marie Carofola, Helen Swiatek, Teresa Dacunzio, Marie Del Pesco, Jennie Schoch, and Marie Genovese are secretaries. Mildred Aloti, Rose La Falce and Conchetta Del 11 Santi are now efficient salesgirls in a New York department store. We talked for quite a time until our conversation was interrupted by a loud crash! The commotion was caused by an avalance of pots and pans under which we found Pot Hart, the kitchenware salesman. Upon leaving the store I decided to visit a museum. I hailed a taxi and noticed that the driver wos Milton Lerner. He drove me to the museum. Looking at one of the exclusive exhibits, I heard a familiar voice behind me. It sounded faintly familiar and then I remembered it os that of Rose Salzano; Mildred Stinson wos her companion. The girls, who are bachelorettes, were telling me of the beautiful apartment they decorated. Rose Vignola is a teacher at N. Y. U. and Henry Zatorski a rising young lawyer. Henry Wynn, Joe Cotapono, Anno Faynor, and Rose Lee Kurbel are members of East Side Faculty, aren't they? Miss Nelligan, here is some news I'm sure you'll be interested in. Junior Pydeski hos really grown up!!!! He causes quite a sensation in the acting world nowadays. Last night I saw him ploy in one of the leading stage productions of the year. Another person who is quite famous is Tessie Klopy. She has an ex- clusive beauty salon on Fifth Avenue. Betty Riccio is her partner in business. I've enjoyed writing to you and I will be pleased to see you on my return to Newark. Sincerely yours, Fifty ROSANNE FARLEY SENIOR ATHELETES Stanley Kremzner, Fred Szeles, Edward Sanecki, Henry Wynn and Ben Szamreta were all members of the football team and a better group of athletes cannot be found. Henry Wynn was also a member of the track team. The efforts of John Pepe, Clifford Miller and Walker Rucker must not be forgotten, for they brought glory to our Almo Mater on the cinder track. In particular the following athletes deserve mention: ROBERT HOWARD Robert turned out for football in his Senior year and became o varsity ployer. He also turned his efforts to baseball where he was one of the best third basemen in Newark. MICHAEL MAHR Mike was one of the best backstrokers on our swimming team. In the water his lost minute spurts were something worth while watching. LEWIS OZIMEK Lewis, besides being o populor boy in our class, was outstanding in football. After two years of ploying he was shifted from the line to quarter- back, where he did well. WALTER SCHNEIDER Walter was more than an average ployer. He played two years of var- sity football in which he did a very good job as our ace tackle. JOHN STRELECKI Voted the best athlete of our class, John was one of the leading players on the football team. He always played hard and clean, putting his best efforts in all the games he played. An outstanding athlete for four years, John also played in the outfield for our baseball team, besides being a good hitter. ROBERT WUJCIAK East Side will suffer a loss with the graduation of Robert who is one of the best guards East Side hos ever had. Often he broke through the oppos- ing line to block a kick or tackle a ball-carrier for a loss.

At lost we hove reoched thot great moment of our lives, the moment to which we hove looked forword since Februory 4, 1936. Happy? Oh yes, joy is in the hearts of every one of us. We ore filled with pride os we stond in readi- ness to receive our diplomos. Smiling, we morch down the oisles; smiling ot you, the oudi- ence—our mothers, our fothers, our teachers, our friends. You, who ore smiling bock ot us. You, who ore os hoppy os we ore. You, who ore proud to see us receiving our rewords. Yes, we look ot you smilingly, ond the heart of eoch one of us goes out to you in thanks—for without your help, your encouragement, your potience ond your inspiration we would never hove been able to go forth to take our places in the world. But our happiness is tinged with sorrow. Feelings of joy intermingle with sadness os we look bock upon our four hoppy years spent in Eost Side High School. Yeors thot ore gone but not forgotten by ony one of us. Diploma in hand, conscious of the present, planning the future, we wonder back to the post. We retrospect on our frantic Freshmen year; our sophis- ticated Sophomore year; our joyful Junior yeor; ond our stirring Senior year. As wisdom-filled grommor school graduotes, we wondered through the holls of Eost Side High School on the morning of Februory 4. Assured thot we knew everything Freshmen need- ed to know, we did not question the way to the ouditorium. After thirty wasteful minutes we reluctantly admitted our foilure to find the hidden possoge to the ouditorium, and so decided to osk the grinning old timers to divulge themselves of their secret. Since no one else wos willing to undertake the owful task, Mary Gronowicz, with much oudocity, walked up to the esteemed Senior. He scornfully, though smilingly, directed us to take the up stairwoy until we reoched the top, open the door, climb the last flight of stairs and enter the 'guarded chamber'. Being suspicious, Morgie Crisofulli questioned someone else. This time we were told the ouditorium wos to be found in the basement. After o heated debate on whether or not we should go upstairs or downstairs, Conchetta Delii Santi, our compromiser, suggested thot half of us go one woy and the rest the other. Like little angels, we followed the advice given to us by the upper-clossmcn. Some of us were introduced to the roof of East Side High School, ond the rest unearthed the janitors' room in the bosement. Subdued, we reached the ouditorium without any further mishap, and felt silly when we discovered it wos directly ad- jocent the front entrance. In a few more days we became occustomed to the routine ond learned that our homework had to be done------or else!! The months flew by, and soon we were Freshmen A's. We began looking up to the Seniors, and were proud to purchase the dance tickets which they encouraged us to buy. Obliging the Seniors was one thing but going to their dance was another. We found out thot we were now answering to the name of The Wallflower Freshies . Even with this we were not daunted, ond the girls soon be gen making eyes ot the Senior boys. Without results, of course. The Freshmen boys seemed lo be mo king more headway, however, for in ample time Joe Pydeski had a hoard of girls trailing him, and ofter ploying the part of Cupid in o ploy wos called Cupid Pydeski by the entire student body. Februory rolled around. We ot once forgot what hod been and began living up to our nomes as Sophisticated Sophomores. Our annex members (who had meanwhile been learn- ing how Mr. Gray's jolopy operoted; hod worked out a system where singing like Miss Cofferty would bring o quorter from big sister's beau; ond had become occustomed to Miss Murphy's fear of closed doors), joined us and were soon known os the Freshie Sops . Being told thot French was the most beautiful language in the world, Steve Sitek tried to convince everyone that this was so. Ah, but ot the same time Miss Godsey hod spoken to us about the beauty of Lotin. Miss Rose Vignola, quite by mistake we all soon ogreed, quoted Miss Godsey while conversing with Steve, and the two have been debating on the beauty of French ond Lotin ever since. Fifty-four In English we were introduced to that grand old fellow, Caesar. Mr. Musgrove began teaching us figures of speech. One could see we were deeply interested! (Irony Ho! Ho! Ho!) Candlestick Salad, Cheese Rarebit, and Split-Peo Soup become the main topics of the doy omong the girls. Joe Roszics' popularity with the ferns began to deteriorate. Joe enlisted in the cooking doss. Wos this the solution to his problem? Rose Forley, Kay Knapp, Dora Yatulis ond Wanda Oboyski seemed to think so. Clothing wos soon in the limelight. Those gallant dressmokers, Helen Scvoca, Mane Carofola, Tessie Klapy, Sophia Eustochwich ond Teresa Docunzio soon outshone everyone else. After o swell summer, splendidly spent, we all returned, eoger to take our ronks os the Educated Sophs. Helen Petrceko started the new term with her eloquent speech-making by breaking the silence of Miss Monroe's typing doss. Result? Helen wos punished for the committed crime (for it is o crime you know, to break the silence of Miss Monroe's room) by covering the blackboards with the phrase, Helen Petrceko wos talking . One doy a crowd gothered around the bulletin board to view the profiles of the English 4 class as depicted by Mory Soveska. Mr. Williams had discovered this ortistic ability of hers and, since she had sacrificed an entire English period to accomplish this task, he did not wish her work to go unnoticed. Weeks flew by and we entered our joyful Junior year older and wiser individuals. We soon began going to the ossembly with the Seniors. Following their example we kept our books open, only to discover that it wos o mistokc, for our very next ossembly program con- sisted of a moving picture. Much to our surprise we were shown onother one thot week after, and pretty soon all we saw were pictures, pictures, and more pictures. (The pictures were all right, of course, but you know, we cannot study in the dork!) The Seniors had given us the right to shove now that we hod grown up (ohem), and we sure lorded it over the other students. (Freshics only, the Sophs were wise to us, ond the Seniors-----well-----). The time for joking become o thing of the past for every member of the closs wos campoign-conscious. The result of our elections gove us quite o storf. We began to realize thot our closs wos doing things differently from ethers. The President was a girl! Christine Glovan; our Vice-President, Carmen Tonzola; our Secretory, Rose Vignolo, and our Treosurer, Ed Miller. Ed got the most votes because he promised not to collect ony dues. Frank Tortorello wos so busy one night thot he forgot to do his English homework. He happened to be the one colled upon to recite. Miss Kartluke, waiting for the answer which did not come, finally said, Soy something, say onything, I won't reprimand you if it's wrong . The closs remembered this ond soon everyone colled upon boldly stood up ond answered onything that he could think cf. Before long we found thot Say onything wos only o by- word of Miss Kortluke. Examination time wos just around the corner. We oil began chewing our noils and wishing for fire drills. Breaths were held by all until we received our report cords. Then we all heaved a sigh of relief and began our enjoyable vacations. Elections one more become on importont issue. Results were: President, Lewis Ozimek; Vice-President, Carmen Tonzolo; Secretory, Mary Sovesko; Treosurer, Joseph Pydeski. The problem of collecting dues confronted the Treasurer os before, and Carmello Vorro, soap-box orator , gove a number of pep tolks to no ovoil. We didn't think it necessary to pay our dues. Step—close—step—close—step. These words were heord in the girls' gym every Thurs- day ot 3 p. m. where Miss Gilbert wos teaching to step gracefully. After much persuosion on our port the Seniors olloted us their cast-off cornstalks which greatly added to the attraction of our monster Horvest Boll. It wos o grand success. But the aftermath! We hod a fine time cleaning up the mess! Once agom the girls began practicing the wiles ond chorms of Cleopotra to vomp the Senior boys. Successful ot lost, those jumping jivers . Rose Focnzo, Helene Wolchuk, Dora Yatulis, Josephine Cordillo, ond the Pegcr Twins become the popular patrons of all donees run by the Seniors. Fifty-five Mrs. Rosen sponsored on introduction period I we Juniors knew everyone but our- selves) . Seniors ot lost! Vicious compoigning held the heodlines. Tenseness ond eoger awaiting gove woy to jubilant cheering os ballots were opened ond votes counted. After a ferocious bottle the results were outstanding. We hod, as President, none other thon that football hero, Lewis Ozimek; our Vice-President wos thot typist, Ann Polumbo; our Secretory being coy Rose Farley; ond, thot friendly fellow Frank Tortorello wos our Treasurer. Ushered into the reolms of Americon History , we struggled with the political ond historical development of our country. The sweet smells of H S which come from the chemistry room were inhaled with a choke ond smile. We soon became accustomed to Mr. Reeve ond his toles . Our goy boutonnieres and stylish dresses were the envy of oil lower clossmen on Senior Recognition Day. After a joyous Senior assembly we proceeded to our regular classrooms, which become flower gardens os lovely ladies ond gracious gentlemen payed compliments to one another. A gigantic donee wos held in the gym immediately after school, where we were greeted hospitably by our hosts ond hostesses. St. Valentine's Doy arrived, ond, os o celebration, we sponsored o dance ot which Cupid presided. The Amazon Dance (girls asked boys to dance) wos another important feoture. Everyone wore his heort on his sleeve. After completing this tosk we earnestly endeavored to outshine all previous proms. Moy 12th arrived ot lost. Reaching the third floor we checked our wraps at the clookroom. Soft stroins of music sweetly filled the oir. Greeted with alohos ond leis we stepped into the enchontment of Howoii. A soft breeze stirred the leoves overhead, os playful monkeys romped about ond goy parrots swayed to harmonious melodies, while couples smoothly glided olong under the glittering moon, whispering sweet nothings. Noticing thot the Freshies were smaller thon ever, we Seniors began teasing them. Charlie Hertling, remembering his Freshman doys, got ofter the Freshies ond sold oil of his tickets to them. We passed on to the A class, ond once more elected officers. After o close bottle the following were victorious: President, Lewis Ozimek; Vice-President, Ann Polumbo; Secretory, Jennie Peger; ond. Treasurer, Frank Tortorello. Of course, we began our finol term by rec'ing the Senior B's ond prettied things up by serving ice creom ond pretzels. The first donee of the seoson, which wos called the Kick-Off , seemed to have been an inspiration to our football team. They soon surpassed oil other teams. June Bocmeister ond Jimmie Eng become co-editors of this year book. Torch staff members could be seen scurrying to ond fro gathering information. A Hallowe en donee was given for the enjoyment of all. Many mosqueroders were present in the wierdly dressed up boys' gym. Prizes were oworded for the prettiest ond funnist costumes and we all had o goy time. We earned o countless number of gray hairs when writing our psychology essoys. Exam- ination time once more opprooched. We begon studying hord ond all of us obtained passing grades. We begon to realize that Father Time does not stop on his steody journey. As we eagerly look forword to graduation doy we remember with a pong the good old doys , ond resolve to keep our memories ever green.

Tuck ley This is THE TORCH, a gleaming part Of Space and Time, of Brain and Heart. Its golden glow contains the lights Of lands and races, wrongs and rights: Italy's brilliant tangerine. By Atrica's deep purple seen; Ireland's enduring emerald, done From blue and yellow, sky and sun; Mel low-toned rays from patterned dreams Of patient China; vivid beams From orient realms whose sun is set And broken empires shining yet; Dark Poland's dim nocturnal ray That turns to violet by day; America's composite light. The sum of all the colors—white. Such is THE TORCH, not just a glint Of facts and faces, lines and print, But rays derived from everywhere Unite to form THE TORCH'S flare. MISS MILDRED A.

I walked into the auditorium. Mr. Ralston was there ready to greet all the newcomers and to assist us to overcome our difficulties. And did we need assistance? Oh boy! We were raring to go! September 26, 1936 By this time everything was under control. This morning I came trotting in at 8:45 A. M. Well, it didn't take me long to become acquainted with Mr. Fast, who, by the way, takes care of the slow-comers. However, I did find out that Mr. Fast is a regular fel- low and is quite lenient with all Freshmen who have not yet become acquainted with the rules of the school. October 2, 1936 And just where were you on October first? Oh yes, none other than Miss Kraemer cross-examining me. I stood there in her office, my knees knocking to- gether, and I just didn't know what to say! But after being there for a few minutes I found out that Miss Kraemer is really a swell person! October 20, 1936 First report card! A dazzled classmate stares at his card wondering whether F means FINE or FAIR. How about FAILURE? He soon found out that these marks did count, and no fooling! December 1, 1936 Studying harder now. Christmas is just around the corner. Some of the honorable classmates resolved to study on rainy nights only, to rest up during study periods, and not to cut class (except on nice warm days). January 3, 1937 Here I am, back in school and in the best of health, thank you. During my vacation I caught up on lost sleep, on movies, and on good books. Of course during all this exoftement I forgot all about school and everything that goes with it. Seventy-two May 1, 1937 The weather is splendid. The cut list increased and the park became over-crowded. Result: more cops on duty! June 25, 1937 Promotion time is here and are we glad?!? This may sound fictitious, but we're all Sophomores now. Vacation time is ahead. Yippie! Two swell months in which to rest up and forget about school. SOPHOMORE YEAR September 8, 1937 Gradually, I became acquainted with many boys and girls. Golly! I never knew there were so many swell people in the school—that goes for the teachers too! November 1, 1937 I began looking up to the Seniors, and was mighty proud to purchase their dance tickets, but when I got to the gym I had to stand around and enjoy myself by watching the others dance. February 5, 1938 We were informed of Mr. Ralston's departure. He had so ably directed us, and in such a sincere spirit. Mr. Ralston's million-dollar smile will always remain in our memories. Mr. Wilmot, a former teacher at East Side and head teacher at the Annex, took over the task of guiding us. JUNIOR YEAR September 10, 1938 Rip-roaring elections! Here they are—the win- ners! President: Joe DeMauro Vice-President: Dorothy Palumbo Secretary: Stella Bielecki Treasurer: Vera Kowaloff November 1, 1938 Well, my class must have very convincing sales- men. Our first dance proved to be a great success. The gymnasium was simply packed. Seventy-three December 23, 1938 Another Christmas! Everything was topsy-turvy. And, are you talking about dues? Well, not around Christmas anyway. But thoughts of Christmas and examinations just don't seem to mix. (Wonder if I'll pass? I did! But I won't tell you my marks—so there!). February 15, 1939 I'm paying adult prices now, so that means I'm grown up (or am I?). Well, anyway I'm in 11A and here is the outcome of the class election: President: George White Vice-President: Genevieve Piontek Secretary: Dorothy Palumbo Treasurer: Vera Kowaloff April 19, 1939 Another dance—another success! Yes siree! June 7, 1939 Sshhh! they're coming—they're here! Yeah, those exams again. They take the pleasure out of life, (the nights too) ! Well, I either sink or swim. Shall I swim? Hurray! I made it—and I swam right into the summer with a bang! Ain't (Oh! I'm a Junior too!) isn't life grand? SENIOR YEAR September 11,1939 Hello! Didn't you hear the latest? We're Seniors. It seems absurd—but belie.e it or not—we just couldn't wait to get back and start campaigning for class officers. The outcome? Well, here goes: that gent with the swell personality as President: Joe De- Mauro; Vice-President, Dorothy Palumbo; Secretary, Agnes Szabo, a girl with plenty of class spirit; and that business man, John Ciaroca, as Treasurer. November 15, 1939 Ah! The Senior Rec. The girls looked as sweet as the flowers they were wearing, and the fellows looked exceedingly handsome. What a thrill for that certain fellow dancing with that certain someone. November 20, 1939 Step, close; step, close. Do not bend your knees! Swing from your hips! Patiently, Miss Gilbert taught us to be graceful dancers. Seventy-four December 1, 1939 Recall that date? Ah yes, how can we forget the Senior Prom? The gymnasium was fixed as a Winter carnival with penguins skiing down the snow covered mountains. Blue skies, dim lights, and soothing music added to the enchantment. Sentimental expressions were all that could be heard. Sweet sophistication filled the dance floor as the couples glided to the syn- copation of the orchestra. December 20, 1939 Sadie Hawkins' Day Dance. Well, Daisy Mae, here's your chance to catch little Abner! Believe me, the girls certainly made use of this dance! January 10, 1940 Examinations—a time ot grief— Have come around the school this week. (Poetic, eh?) Oh—my report card—I'll peek with one eye. Well, well! I can open the other eye too— I've passed! February 5, 1940 Rip, bang! smash! boom! What happened? We're back as Senior A's. Well, we finally got there. We're all so busy—the home rooms look like bee hives. Yes, we're around getting advertisements for the Torch. February 18, 1940 Would you like to hear the outcome of the elec- tion? Now listen carefully. That grand fellow, John Ciaroca, is our President; Dot Palumbo is our Vice- President; none other than Agnes Szabo to record the minutes; and—well, what's the use—I can't think of an adjective to describe his swell personality, never- theless, the Treasurer is—you guessed it—Joe Re. April 14, 1940 The days are getting warmer and more inviting. What a temptation! But no. I'll stay in and study, only a few more days and then.........! June 29, 1940 Time marches on! Graduation day is here. When we were Freshmen, we couldn't wait to get out, but now that the time has come for us to go, we look back at those pleasant memories, memories that we shall never forget. We wish that we could turn back the clock and once more live through those happy times. Vale! Farewell!! Seventy-five DOTS AND DASHES GOOD EVENING ladies and gentlemen, this is station E.S.H.S. taking you to the Wurst Theatre, on the Great White Way, where YOUR news commentator, George Daher, will bring to you the world premiere of that stirring epic, that sensational drama, Back With the Breeze, written by the famous author Alex Mitchell and produced by Joe Re of the Urso Studios. Co-starred in this picture are Pat Butler as Rhett, the dashing hero, who is not so young, and Helene Butler as Scarlett (whose acting is always in the red). Take it away George . . . Hello ladies and gentlemen, we are broadcasting the world premiere of Back With the Breeze from the Wurst Theatre. That noise you hear isn't static, it's John Cavaness, that too, too blues singer, vocalizing to the strains of James Christy's Rhumbaleers. Standing beside me are three (count 'em) flash camera men. Fred Logonov, Leonard Kolski, and Ray Strupas are ready to shoot any one who enters (draw your own conclusions). Among the first to arrive are Joe DeMartino, the famous chemist, who got his start by blowing up East Side. In 1949 he received the Peachy Peace Prize for finding the cure to barber's itch. With him is his wife Corinne, and after them come Josie Alessandra and Virginia Vassallo of the Vassalline Petroleum Co. Now entering is his Excellency, Governor Criscuolo, who upheld the No Secretary Over Twenty-Five Bill. With him is Vince Cuzzolino, the great detective, who recently solved The Mystery of the Lost Violin Case, and Stew Cooper, that featherweight champ, and his managers Charlie (Hit'em) Hittel, Joey (Bust'em) Blume, and Artie (Slap 'em) Seckler. Now come those two screen celebrities, Vera Kowaloff, daughter of the Great Boris, escorted by Dick Lai lasher, the Romeo of the screen. Vera looks just too cute in her latest picture Nina Hot Cha. Dick's latest pic- ture is The Drawback of Notre Dame. George August, the electrical en- gineer who shocked the world with his book Electronic Theory of Electrifica- tion, has just arrived with his wife, the former Marie Cieri. Now entering is Teddy Russen, sole owner of the famous newspaper Russen's Rag. Incidently, Dot Kibitzer McCaffery and Regina McMullin, who dig up all the dirt for Russen's Rag, are also here. George White, whose 1950 Scandals are playing at the Stranded Theater, and part of his revue are here. Some of the girls from the revue include Anna Armenante, Charlotte Joseph, and Margaret Sabo, who do The Dance of the Seven Vales. Charlie Lepore and Nick Nobile are down from their farm. They are breeding thoroughbred horses with short legs for small jockeys. There's Marshall Katz and his sweet Petunia, Margaret Cuzzolino. Marshall owns the Katz Dog Biscuit Co. I'll see if I can't get him to say a few Seventy-vx words. Hello Marshall, would you say something to the audience? Mar- shall: Marriage isn't a word, it's a sentence! And there ladies and gentle- men, you have Marshall Katz's view of marriage. Coming towards me now is the flipping flyer Frank Chip Sciarrillo, who knocks all the girls for a loop. With him is Bill Sigley who runs the private detective agency, Sigley's Smart Snoopers. After them I see Betty Broadfoot of the Broadfoot Shoe Corp. Their slogan is Broadfoot Shoes Squeak for Themselves. The great western screen idol, Bill Buck Jones, is next, coming with his sister Elizabeth. Irene Levendoski and husband num- ber three, Ed Blazak, are here with Gertie Morawczynski and Ed Terepka. Julio Lopes, the famous cartoonist, whose antics are funnier than most of his cartoons, is giving Stan Ziolkowski, the famous artist, pointers on how to draw. Estelle Karwacka and Evelyn Cybulski, those two pretty nurses, are com- ing in with Dr. Michael Dziedzic, psychologist who performed a successful operation on Frank Kamyk for complications of the oblongata. After him comes Ed Laffey who perfected the new laughless laughing gas. He's talking to Franklyn Warner Baxter, the movie idol. Also, here are Irene Supre- nant of the Suprenant Auto Co., and husband, and Isabelle lannello, very personal secretary to Johnny Ciaroca, sensational lawyer who lost only one case (he only tried one). Sal Lombard, of the Navy, escorts Fanny Cunha (he got his start in the bathtub). Senator Morris Paolella is talking to Governor Criscuolo about their bill. Next I see beautiful Marion Pedalino and Sue Pepe of the Pepe Cola Co. Florence Palumbo is trying to get Pat Butler's autograph (I wonder). There's Frank DeFalco looking very prosperous. He owns the DeFalco Wrecking Corp. Looking just too stunning is Julie Kowal, famous model, and her secretary Dot Darlak. Talking to her is George Piegaro, song and dance man for George White's Scandals. Anna Cannon just came in with a BANG. Solo- mon Roth and Joey Petolino are discussing plans for a new show at their night club, King Solomon. Paul Vanyo, great screen lover, is fighting his way through a crowd of girls (he certainly has changed). The singer Robert D'Uva, who made his debut in Ed Bochenski's musicale, The Vulgar Boat- man, is chatting with Dot Palumbo, the socialite. Flo Stankus just slapped the face of Harold Reeves, the census taker, who asked her if she is near forty. Lou Bevilacque, of the water works, and Margie Vitollo are discussing some- thing which seems very important; let's listen to their conversation. Lou: You can't talk to me that way, you cat. I'll scratch your eyes out. Margie: Keep your distance or I'll scratch you bald-headed. And so we leave this happy couple. S«v nty- «vcn I have just received a telegram addressed to this theater. It reads: SING SING, N. Y. JUNE 22, 1950 SORRY I CANT ATTEND STOP I COULDN'T POSSIBLY BREAK AWAY SIGNED LEON GALANTY Stella Senatore and Marie Guzzi, the two spinsters, are looking for prospects. Their gaze falls upon Michael Bacha, who, seeing the gleam in their eyes, starts in the other direction. There's Jean Hibell, heiress to the Hibell Watch Co., whose motto is Bell of the hour, on the hour, by the hour. Among the eminent bachelors I see Joe Ancmon, Frank Buffardi, Car- men Boniello and Ed Ciesla. John Buratin, wealthy business man, is also here. Then I see Joseph Mueller, heir to the Mueller Noodle Co. Next, Virginia Baccaro and Ruth Stahnten. Then there's Emma Jordan of the Jordan Milk Co. There's Ralph (Half-Pint) Galione escorting Carmella Nazzaro to the gallery. Josephine Gallo and her husband are also here. Ed Lazowski and John Kovacsofsky, the two botanists who recently discovered the orchidacea of the monocotyledonous plant (wow!!). In a secluded corner I see Ec Kloski still proposing to Anna Fill. Murray Soloway, mad inventor of the inner-springless mattress is also here. Over there I see Lucille Wozniak and Janet Perry, those two enticing debutantes. Then I see Frank Case and Joe DeMauro, partners in the I'Odeur Perfume Co. Among the pretty usherettes I see Emma Chamak, Caroline Conrad, Mary Giordano, Mary Kica and Olga Kostra. Just entering is George Willis, singer of the Vecchiarelli Opera Company. George Del Grippo, the famous draughtsman, who always catches cold, is giving Anthony Inguaggiato a combination hot-foot. Among the late arrivals are Frank Waer who owns Frank's Hard Waer Shop. Woof-Woof—you've guessed who it is, folks. Willie Wolf. Get my magnifying glass, for here comes Mickey Mouse Liccese. With her, and gabbing as usual, is Florence Lynch. The two glamour girls, Ida Marasco and Agnes Szabo, are the latest ones to arrive. This is your news commentator, George Daher, signing off and saying, I'll be back in a flash—with some more trash. Seventy-eight 8POETS BOYS FROM the class of June, 1940 come many boys talented in the athletic fields of endeavor. Baseball, track, football, basketball, all are repre- sented. In the “national game we have a stellar infielder. Captain Lou Vitolo, and veterans Pat Butler and Alex Mitchell. On the cinder path, outstanding performers such as Joe DeMartino, Jim Christy, John Ciaroca, Ralph Galione and John Cavaness have been our main point-getters. Joe DeMartino has the junior city shotput crown and is runner-up in senior competition. Ralph Galione, high jumper, also has a city championship and a place in senior competition. Jim Christy, sprint specialist, has collected many first and second places, amassing a large number of points in the shorter distances and broad-jump. John Ciaroca, another sprinter, placed third in junior city competition, and also gathered points in hurdling and broad-jumping. Now a middle-dis- tance runner, he will do well in the quarter-mile. John Cavaness and William Jones did their parts by competing in the sprints and middle-distances. The gridiron yields able men such as Frank Casale and Pat Butler, tackles; Jim Christy, halfback; and Alex Mitchell, end. Last, but not least, we are well represented in basketball by Alex Mitchell, a “Deadeye Dick of the game; Lou Vitolo, known for his excellent passing and floor-work; and George Piegaro, for his fine passing and general play. GIRLS EAST SIDE'S Bowling Team was started by Miss Gilbert in 1938. Members from our class were Florence Stankus, Margaret Sabo, Sue Pepe, Marion Pedalino, Carmella Nazzaro, Janet Perry, Dorothy Palumbo, Florence Petti, Ida Marasco, Genevieve Piontek, Mary Giordano, Elizabeth Jones, and Lucille Wozniak. At the end of the first season of bowling, the girls with the highest averages received medals. A gold medal was awarded to Florence Stankus and a silver one to Margaret Sabo. The highest score reached was 189, by Florence Stankus. Archery was introduced in 1937. Under supervision the girls soon became expert at it and finally entered the Spring tournaments. The girls who belonged to the team from our class are Janet Perry, Genevieve Piontek, Margaret Sabo, Ruth Stahnten, Fanny Cunha, Gertrude Morawczynski, Mary Giordano, Olga Kostra, and Florence Stankus. When the girls shot an aver- age of forty, or more, six times, they received an archery letter. The ablest Maid Marion is Janet Perry.
