East Side High School - Torch Yearbook (Newark, NJ)

Text from Pages 1 - 172 of the 1943 volume:

s NEWARK NEW JERSEY HAROLD M . JAY He started us off. JOHN CAVICCHIA He carried us on. They saw us through. ANGELO ROSAM ILIA SADIE Z. FEINSOD 7a Pop JicutKflUan— EAST SIDER FROM THE FIRST — WE, THE CLASS OF JANUARY NINETEEN FORTY-THREE, AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATE OUR TORCH. In the year 1911,3 dapper young gentleman from New England entered the portals of East Side High School. The school was young too; in fact, it had just been born. Mr. Laughton soon established a reputation among the students as a teacher to have for English . His classes were always interest- ing and inspiring and the influence of his words was far-reaching. Someone has said that He who wishes to teach, must never cease to learn . This was certainly true of Mr Laughton. Speaking to this fine scholar, (for he is a scholar in the true sense of the word), everyone felt to a degree the glory that was New England. Mr Laughton has endeavored to leave at East Side a bit of the culture of his own Alma Maters, Boston Latin School (1892) and Harvard University (1896). As a humorist Mr. Laughton is known to both students and faculty. His delightful anecdotes have brightened many an assembly program. His sense of humor, however, is not confined to stories. His ready, subtle wit is a thing to be on the watch for, and having been heard, appreciated Those who have missed seeing his Ivanhoe on a horse have really missed some- thing. Mr. Laughton has been a true friend to all at East Side. Many boys now in our armed forces are thanking Mr. Laughton for the heartwarming letters and gifts he sends to them- In outflung corners of the globe, or right in New Jersey, he keeps in touch with the boys no matter where they are stationed. He is a friend to all who know him and he considers his friends all the students of East Side. In this year 1943, a dapper gentleman from New England is going out of the portals of East Side. He may not be as young in years but his spirit is, and will always be, as young as ever. And so Ave atque Vale to a great teacher and scholar, a keen humorist, and a true friend, East Side's Mr. Chips. 5 fiTE know him as Mr. John Cavicchia, a good sport and a true friend—but. Uncle Sam real- ized what a grand, all-round fellow he was and said, I want you. Today, Lieutenant John Cavicchia, now in the Naval Reserve, so near (in New York) and yet so far, remains our pal. In 1924, an East Side senior named John Ca- vicchia did such an excellent bit of work in editing his yearbook that East Side won the award for the best book of the year. For 1942 John Cavicchia's dreams were of another prize-winning book but, lacking a crystal ball, he was not able to foresee events that would affect his last year with us. Soon, we expect him home where he belongs, � where he's wanted and needed. We consider his absence merely a loan to Uncle Sam, but, we saw him first, and our motto is Finders keepers.

T HAD left the editorial rooms of The Jersey Times without getting a 1- chance to look at the complete set-up of the paper. What did my Story look like in print? Tony, the newsboy on the corner was yelling, Extree, extree, so I bought one. I had a tender spot in my heart for Tony. After all, I had gone to high school with his mother, Hilda Marques. She got mar- ried a few months after graduation. Gosh, thinking of Hilda reminds me of the old high school gang Why, that was all of ten years ago! I wonder what they're all doing now? Oh well, let's see what news the paper has. Wait a minute, what's this? Why, John Villani has just been elected D A. What a coincidence, ten years ago we had a Villani in office. Maybe he'll be able to do something about that ration-card gang. I've heard that Albanese and Matulis are selling ration cards for everything from soup to nuts. In '43 it was just tires and gasoline, time certainly has changed. Albanese, Matulis, Marcella and Coppola arc public enemies 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively, in case you haven't heard. The Waves and the Waacs have certainly kept up their activities even though the war is over. Here are some group pictures, one of the Waves and the other of the Waacs. And what a line-up of familiar faces. Helen Schu- ray. Captain of the Waacs, is shown with her corps, among them Marie Cic- cone, Louise Ottenstroer, Peggy Cuozzo, Henny Belewicz and Helen Burry (and every one of them has a Mrs before her name). Same goes for Dot Schneider, Captain of the Waves, and her corps, which consists of Mary Brenda Cuozzo, June Zimmerman, Alverda Barto, Helen Lewczak and Evelyn Knapp. Evelyn joined shortly after we graduated. I remember her boy friend was in the Marines and she wanted to be near to him. Now they're Mr. and Mrs. Here's the society section with a picture of none other than that mis- chievous Dotty Torben. She, her husband and their four children have just returned from Florida where they spent the winter. Hei children are awfully cute. Like mother like daughter if I may paraphrase. Dotty says that as soon as she learns how to count to five she's going to have another baby. Until then, the score's four. Jean Petras, another of my classmates, has been entertaining at her home for her seventh wedding anniversary Among the guests were Admiral and Mrs. Warren Fredericks (so, Anita Barnes was the right girl after all), Mr. and Mrs. George Rockhind (I suspected that Marie Fernicola would be Mrs. R. before long), Mr. Fred Santucci, (Fred still a bachelor???). Lieuten- ant Arthur Dahmer, Pnilomena Pisappia, Lieutenant-Commanders George Kica and Louis Hofman, Hilda Speck, and last but not least, Vincent Stolow- ski. (He always was a leader of men and a follower of women. At present he's free-lancing). Leave it to Jean to entertain in such a lovely way. In- cidentally, I've heard that her little daughter looks just like her. Wonder what's playing downtown? Let's see, page eight Proctor's has . Helen Arbus and George Cuzzolino in I Don't Want to Love Without You , 46 I've seen that, it's good too. Branford has Dorothy Truska in Are Husbands Necessary? She answers that question in reel life by no , but in real life by yes . She and Eleanor Dominsky were models in New York about four years ago but Dotty was tempted by Hollywood, Eleanor still prefers modeling and New York. The Mosque is advertising a concert with Evelyn Greene. Evelyn certainly went places with her lovely voice. The paper says that she was Marian Anderson's protege but I'm certain that Evelyn would have been successful, regardless. Jack Carvalho and his Boogie Beaters are at the Adams with Rosalind Uzzilino and Julius Rabinowitz doing the vocals. Danny Demchyk may start his own band soon, but until then he'll keep blowing for Jack. Oops! I nearly dropped the sports section, and I simply must find out whether Milda Strupas won the National Swimming and Diving Champion- ship. Nothing on this page except Mike Muscles Massessa, who practical- ly murdered dem bums . He's playing pro football now. Larry Marcella may join him if he can break away from the pen (and I don't mean the kind that carries ink, either!). I was looking for news about Milda, though, wasn't I? It's probably on the next page Oh, yes. here it is. And she's won! She'll probably try out for the Internationals in a few weeks. I'm sure she'll win that, too. Milda always was a determined creature, wasn'l she? I've never read the financial page, but today's my lucky day, what with all the names and faces I'm coming across, so I guess I'll read it. Wow! That Wall Street typhoon, I mean, tycoon, Ralph Devone, has hit the million dollar mark. He and Secretary of the Treasury Arthur Walch are good friends. Many's the night the two sit at home together (Fort Knox) and count their gold. Norman Schneider, editor of this paper, has written a very interesting editorial entitled What This Country Needs is More Play and Less Work . On the Womans' Page is a picture of four girls, two modeling the latest things, and they are the aforementioned Truska and Dominsky. The designers of these stunning ensembles flank the models and they are none other than the two Annes, Colucci and Vivone. They're mighty pretty numbers, too (I refer to both dresses and girls). Ann Colucci's latest book is now on the market. She seemed interested both in writing and fashions, so she com- promised. The name of the book is To Love or Not To Love. The next page tells what Science is doing, especially Kaczek and Valdes. Adele and August always were interested in chemistry and each other, so the solution was wedding bells and lab experiments. They're doing wonders too, so it seems. They have just discovered that C;i H4 (NH3-,.) MG_.03 H20 -f- Ca4A-GjCl, is soluble in water. Amazing, what? Dr. Anthony Speziale is now in charge of the Goncalves General Hos- pital. It was named for its benefactor, Joe Goncalves. As I recall, Joe al- ways did have a lot of money and always put it to good use. Leon Kremzner is the hospital's psychologist and contrary to what you'd believe he's doing a splendid job. Joe Lazaro has just returned from his rocket flight to A ars. He de- signed and flew the ship all by himself. I don't want to brag but I always knew Joe would be a success, and his cute little wife agrees with me. 47 This advertisement rings a familiar note in my memory. Faynor's Dancing School . Why, that's Betty of course, it seems that now that she's a success she wants to help other people in their career. It's funny, but I always thought that Betty wanted to be a missionary, but leave it to a woman to change her mind. Speaking of Betty reminds me of Irene Schilare, who has her own studio now. Her former training at Lorstan's Studio probably accounts for her present success in the field of photography. Well, enough reading and recollecting for one evening. I've got to hurry home now and see how Beverly is making out, she's still working on an easy-to-make rubber tire. She's a scientist now you know. And a darn good one too! She and I share a lovely apartment now and it may interest you to hear that Fred Kurt was the architect who planned our ppartment building and the one next door, too. Adale Palfi and Kathy Brown were our Interior Decora- tors. They furnished our modern suite and it's positively stunning. Today's my birthday and Beverly doesn't suspect that I know that she has planned a surprise party for me. I do hope she invites Gloria Arloff. Gosh, ever since Gloria started to act in straight drama on Broadway, she rarely visits us, but then, with a leading man like Martin Shmurak, why should she? Before I leave I might add that Beverly is leaving me next month. She's going to be married to,......yes, you've guessed it, one of the Quiz Kids!! By SONIA A.

WE had come to high school! Green as Scarlet O'Hara's eyes and not quite as beautiful1 Whereas Scarlet may have been in a dream, we were in a nightmare that first week at East Side The first crisis came when our home- rooms were assigned and we found many of our friends from elementary school there—(and we thought we had gotten rid of them!) One day we discovered that many people went all the way around the second floor to get from Room 205 to 204. Those people were Freshmen. That same day we found out that only one door of Room 204 opened. A few of us did some homework. Suddenly, all of us were doing homework—it was the end of the term Mr. Jay and Mrs. Feinsod organized our class in our second term. Not many people came to the first meeting but it was a begin- ning and most of us profited by it. The second year found us minus the gauche manners of Freshmen, minus the naivete that made us obey rules of school traffic, and minus some classmates—who were still Freshmen. Mr. Jay left, Mr. Cavicchia taking his place. Now our class was really a growing concern, with members paying dues and—well, anyway, members. Many in our class discovered the pleas- ure and benefit to be derived from the various clubs and athietic organiza- tions. Latent talents were also discovered in our classmates. In our third year the class gave dances and we feverishly hounded other pupils to buy tickets. Moreover, we put on a vaudeville show in the Audito- rium that was really a whoperoo! Major Bowes has nothing on us! House jammed to capacity. Although it wasn't needed, talent was brought in from outside the school and the show really went over. At the beginning of our Senior B term we elected Carmen Albanese president, Anne Colucci vice-president, James Matulis treasurer and Elea- nor Dominsky secretary. Mrs. Feinsod was absent for the last part of our third year and the beginning of the fourth. Came our prom! Came scenery. The girls were working busily making pretty paper flowers out of—well, making pretty paper flowers stop. The day before the event many worked hard in the gym and Mr. Cavicchia worked harder. Finally, the night of the prom! Mrs. Feinsod came with her husband and with the news that it was a boy! The Senior A's held the Rec and a good time was had by all . At last! And I don't mean the song! Oh, didn't you know? We were Seniors— with a capital S Now was the time for us to recognize the lowly 4B's At the Rec , dignified and lofty Senior A's and teachers (a few) and— yes, the 4B's ate lollipops and looked very cute There was a bit of difficulty in our last term between the class and the advisers, Mr. Rosamilia having replaced Mr Cavicchia who had gone to the wars . Later everything straight- ened itself out and went very smoothly Our last class officers were Warren Fredericks president, Anne Colucci vice-president, Arthur Walch treas- urer and June Zimmerman secretary We look forward to getting out of high school and yet we'll be very sad to leave. I wonder where we will be ten years from now! • • • • • 49 —BEVERLY REMS 7he Ou udeA. A DEEP voice boomed out, Last call for Senior Pole vault, Center and Dickens High Schools. The eight contestants lined up, and one after another shot down the eighty yard runway, |ammed their bamboo poles into the ground, rose grace- fully and majestically toward the heavens and then, with a twist and a turn, dropped lightly down to earth Yes, it was easy,—in the beginning. But that was because the bar was only up to ten feet. But then as each man cleared ten feet, it was raised to ten feet two inches, then four inches, eight inches, eleven inches and finally eleven feet! It was here that the test really began. There were but three contestants left, two from Dickens High and one from Center High. Al Johnson and Pete Smart were Dickens' star vaulter and both had gone twelve feet three inches in their trials. Pierre Michel was Center's only hope but he had not much of a record. True, he had done twelve feet five inches in one of his trials but that probably was a freak jump. Why, the county record was twelve feet six inches. Ha! Imagine a nobody breaking the county record. What the Dickens High rooters and contestants didn't know was that Center High had not yet accepted the Michel boy as one of them. You see, he was a refugee from France and most of the school still considered him an outsider What nobody but Pierre knew was that h.? was going to make them accept him by setting a new record. He wasn't positive he could do it but he could certainly � ry. Al Johnson of Dickens High first , the voice boomed Johnson was good and Pierre knew it. He took his time about everything. He didn't like the eighty yards he was alloted so he walked down to the sixty yard marker and took his starting stance. He even waited a minute or two before he started But then down he sprinted, increasing his speed with every yard and then with a quick thrust he was up—and over. Peter and Pierre also made the jump, although Pierre grazed the bar and nearly toppled it over. Then the bar was raised to twelve feet two inches. Al cleared that at his first try. His teammate. Smart, after exceptionally good runs down the runway, crashed into the bar at his first two efforts and then, timing his jump as best he could, sailed up for a third time. As he cleared the bar he gave a twist on top in such grace and form as is rarely seen However, just as he started his descent, his foot knocked off the bar and he was disqualified. Smart's disappointment was so great he cried. Pierre w3s sorry for him but then anxiety filled his heart as he realized he was next. Overanxiously he ran down the path; then, realizing the folly of not timing himself, he stopped and walked back, chiding himself for having thrown away his first chance Back at the start he set his pole and began his stride, making sure his timing so was correct. Faster and faster, steadier and steadier. Up! On, how good it felt to go up—and over Yes, he was over. However, only a few students cheered, and Pierre, despite his triumph, was downcast. A roar went up. Pierre turned. The bar was being raised to twelve feet seven and b half inches! Pierre's blood froze but he was glad to note that Al wasn't any too steady himself. Al Johnson and Pierre Michel are to attempt a county record in the pole vault. This time the voice wasn't so booming, as even the announcer felt the tension in the air. Al Johnson of Dickens first. Al strolled around tor a few moments to steady himself and then strode to the sixty yard starting line. Down the runway he sped, his legs churning like a windmill. Up he sailed Was he going to clear it? Silence reigned Yes, he was! Oh, no-o. A deep sigh went up as Al's pole got in his way and prevented a clear break a way. Now everyone was standing A pin could be heard dropping, the silence was so great Pierre Michel of Center High. As he walked to the eighty yard marker the entire student body broke out into a great cheer and Pierre realized they were cheering for him. Yes, for him. There are some that say there were tears in his eyes as he took his stance but there is no verification. Pierre's legs began to open up as he sped down the runway and he thought of his mother back in France. If she could see him now she would indeed be very proud. He couldn't hear the cheers of the crowd after that for he was keeping his mind on his pace. Down he streaked, ever faster Then, at the last pos- sible moment, he slammed his pole into the ground and felt himself rise as if he were a bird. There was one second of peace as Pierre thrilled to the cool air enveloping him. Then, with a quick kick, and a twist, he threw his pole from him and vaulted over the bar Before his feet touched the ground he knew he had made a new record. Then Pierre couldn't think clearly. First everyone gathered around him and cheered Then they lifted him on their shoulders. He wanted to cheer too but his words stuck and he could only smile. Pierre couldn't see how Johnson made out in his other two attempts, but he was later told that when Johnson saw the ease with which he had cleared the bar the strain was too much and he couldn't quite make it. That night Pierre cried himself to sleep for happiness. He was one of the gang .

What use are breath and strength if we no longer feel The thrill of battle for some holy cause Or hear high morning bugles calling us away? Let brave hearts dare to break the truce with things Ere we have lost our ancient heritage. Are we to gain a world to lose our souls. Souls which can keep faith until death And die, triumphant, in some crimson dawn? Nay, we must keep faith with the unnumbered brave Who pushed aside horizons, that we might reach The better things: We cannot rest until We have put courage once more on her throne; For Honor clamors for her heritage. And Right still claims a kingdom of its own. —WALTER A. CUTTER From Clark's On Thousand Quotable Poems By courtesy of Willett, Clerk 0 Co. Chicooo.

FERGUSON ANN GUIOERA MARGARET JESSEN Reverie: June 23, 1943 RADUATION day, the day we have dreamed of for four years (or more), has come at last. Yes, for four years we have watched and envied ethers as they graduated; now it is our turn. As we march up to receive our diplomas from Mr. Wilmot, our thoughts wander back to September, 1939. We were freshmen then, lowly insignificant freshmen, who were gullible enough to believe anything the seniors told us. We could always be counted upon to go up the down stairway. As freshmen we soon learned where room 109 was and who Miss Kraemer and Mr. Fast were. As a class, we started to get under way. Our advisers. Miss Wilbor and Mr. Vanderhoof, called a meet- ing. They told us what would be expected of us in future years at school. Not only were their talks encouraging, but they had united us as a class for the first time. Sophomores! What a wonderful feeling, even though the seniors called us saps. Some of us began to act sophisticated, Ahem! even to the extent of going to some of the dances which the seniors practically forced us to attend. All was going along wonderfully. I guess too wonderfully, because a sad thing happened to us. Due to other duties Miss Wilbor could not continue as our adviser and Miss Cleary accepted the position. Well, by now we were used to the old routine of classes and homework. What's homework, you ask? Well, that's the stuff you do between radio programs. Another vacation came and went and we were Juniors. Imagine, upper- classmen! Now we really began to get interested in school and class activi- ties. We had our own dances and gave a play, Don't Keep Him Waiting, which was a huge success. Great credit should be given to the entire cast for an excellent performance, to Miss Kartluke for her able assistance in coaching, and, lest we forget, to Eleanor Tewes and Etta Rubin for their zeal in assembling the properties which contributed much to the enjoyment of the play. We had meetings and the most important thing of all was that we elected class officers for the first time. After much campaigning, the ballot was taken and our officers were: President...................................................ANTHONY D'ALESSIO Vice-President............................................JOSEPHINE STRELECKI Secretary.................................................................RUTH THOMPSON Treasurer . . ’............................................HENRY SATZGER Sergcants-at-Arms......................DONALD CHIAPPETTI, HERBERT KREMP Many of us joined various clubs and school teams, too. The same old routine was boring, so some of us took to visiting the park, drug store, or neighborhood theatre for a change of atmosphere. Really Miss Kraemer's office is very comfortable, once you get used to it. While there we dreamed of the future, and our Senior year. September, 1942, at last arrived and we were SENIORS!!! Could it be possible, we asked. It was. 49 Everything was going very smoothly, when suddenly once again we lost another adviser. This time it was Mr. Vanderhoof. He had been a wonderful adviser for three years, working very hard for us. Mr. Di Nardo very kindly stepped into Mr. Vanderhoof's place, and did a wonderful job, too. Well, at last we were settled, and the good things really began to happen. First came our Senior Recognition (commonly known as Senior Rec ). What a day! The girls were beautiful in their pretty dresses and tearose corsages, the boys handsome in their new suits and boutonnieres. All the celebrating! From morn till night! And why not, we were now officially Seniors. No sooner had the effect of the Rec worn off, than before our eyes loomed the Senior Promenade ( Prom to you). Our Prom was a novel one. Never before in the history of East Side was there sw$h a one as ours. It was a Victory Prom. We economized on everything, evert time, which was the most important factor. It was held from six-thirty until nine o'ciock. What did it matter to us? This is war and as patriotic citizens, we were only too glad to change our hours. The Gym itself was beautiful. We had an immense Christmas tree, snow all around, and everything else that goes with Christmas, even Santa Claus. Strutting around in their first (in most cases) tuxedos were our handsome boys, and the girls in their lovely gowns riva.led this grand- eur with their beauty. All and all it really was perfect. Of course, we had class elections again. The victors this time were: President.................................................ANTHONY D'ALESSIO Vice-President..........................................ELIZABETH GARBARINI Secretary................................................................RUTH THOMPSON Treasurer.......................................................HARRY ROSEN Sergeants-at-Arms.........................FRED BORTNICK, STEVE KAPSKY There were only three things ahead of us now, the election of our gradu- ating officers, our Torch, and graduation. The campaigning over, the ballot taken, we found that we had made very wise decisions when we elected the following 12A officers: President...............................................................EDWARD McGRATH Vice-President..........................................JOSEPHINE STRELECKI Secretary.......................................................ANNE KELLY Treasurer......................................................ROBERT LUTZ Sergeants-at-Arms..........................GEORGE MARTIN. FRED BORTNICK Every one worked hard to get the Torch published. Pictures were taken, articles written, advertisements sold, until it was finally completed and it cer- tainly is one of the best ever produced by any graduating class. Now Mr. Wilmot is handing us our diploma and is shaking our hand. Our hearts swell and our eyes brim with tears, for we are no longer students of East Side High School. Oh, if only we could turn back the clock and live these four happy years over again. If oniy the boys who have left our class to fight in our Army, Navy, and Marine Corps could be with us at this time, for they too have looked forward to graduation day. There is one consolation, however, victory is near and we all shall be together once again. In the meantime, let us pray that God will keep our boys and girls who are in the service, and those who will be going, in good health and insure their safe return. 50 “hall of F ame Best Looking DORIS WEATHERS DONALD CHIAPETTI Most Likely to Succeed ELIZABETH GARBARINI SALVATORE MICCHELLI Most Pleasing Personality JOSEPHINE STRELECKI JOHN PIATEK Most Conceited STEPHEN SMEGA Pride of the Faculty .DOROTHY BIELECKI FRANKLIN HASTINGS Best Dressers HENRIETTA TOMASZEWSKI ANTHONY D'ALESSIO Best Dancers MARION STEROPLE HENRY SATZGER Most Quiet MARIE GERRITY HENRY ETLINGER Class Artist Class Gigglers AILEEN FONG FRANK WASILAK Class Funsters IRENE SPIANKOWSKI CASIMAR ULAK Most Amusing MARGARET LYSIAK HERBERT KREMP But We Love Them SOPHIE ZATORSKI FRED HORVATH Class Flirts MAUD GENUNG DANIEL SPADONE Most Popular ANN KELLY HARRY ROSEN Class Politicians HILDA SLOAN ROBERT GLASSMAN Class Athletes 51 S.Z.

Did You?” Also starred in the same pro- gram is Marion Sterople, famous interpreter of Ha- waiian dances. Opening soon at the “Orange Room” at Nedick’s, we have Frank Leite, No. 1 drummer and his or- chestra, featuring “Bing” Buchwald and Rose Ti- nessa, vocalists, and Adele Liptak at the piano. A new comer to the show world is Fred “Tops Horvath who succeeds Fred Astaire as the smooth- est dancer yours truly has ever seen. “Command-dears,” a recent musical starring that new comedy team Loretta Rubel and Anne Lewan- dowski, popularly known as “Cheese-n-Crackers, continues its very successful run on Broadway at the “Kingdom Theatre.” To go for a moment to the classics—the opening performance of “The Valhyrie” at the Metropolitan Opera House tomorrow night presents such distin- guished artists as Henry Pietras portraying Sig- mund, Helen Pachiura in the role of Brunhilde, George Pagila as Woton, Doris Weathers as Seglind, Sophie Knott as Fricha, and Edward McGrath as Hoonding. Tina Crisafulli, Mary Lonergan and Edwin Banias are cast as the eternal triangle in the new motion picture “The Sun Is Up.” Hilda Sloan has made a name for herself in musi- cal circles—as the hottest canary this side of Har- lem! She is accompanied by Sophie Dadenas who has given up her mandolin for a sizzling trumpet. Steve Smega, Ruth Bauman and Frank Wasilak are starred in that new production— Road to Kala- mazoo,” directed by Y’ickie Tremarco.
