Gee, I wonder if this is the right stairway. Remember that first week in school of our freshman year? Now, looking back at that year, we can see why the title Dumb Freshmen is given to the incoming members of the high school each term. Maybe it was a disappointment to go to our first high school football game and see our team defeated, but for the rest of the season that football team was one that we could be proud of. The brilliant performances of Oscar Givens and Lolly Beriont will never be forgotten. There are probably some teachers that we will always remember for one thing or another, Mrs. Potter for those curious bits of humor she liked to tell her history students, Miss Reynolds for loving to talk about her last year's Section I , and Miss MacConkey for separating her Latin declensions in paper doll boxes. Remember Sidney Orgel, while playfully trying to lock Louie Chernikoff out of Miss MacConkey's room one day, tightly grabbed the door knob, and yanked hard. Was his face red when he discovered that it was Miss MacConkey's hands he had grabbed, And who williever be able to forget john Tyers, known to us all for his good voice and flashing smile, or Carlton Palmer, well-known painter, and Richard Finnie, eminent explorer and lecturer, who were just a few of the many interesting assem- bly programs of the year? And those trips that practically every class and club made to the N. Y. World's Fair. lt was also our Freshman year that Lorraine Pugash was voted the prettiest Freshman girl and johnny Frayko the handsomest boy. Shall we ever forget the assemblies when Mimi Poley, the songstress of our class, so beautifully serenaded us? '40 UPHUMUHE '41 The first week of our Sophomore year was quite different from the previous one. Instead of being laughed at, we felt quite superior at seeing the new Freshmen making silly mistakes, and not knowing which way to turn. Soon after the invitations for the Dramatic Club were sent out, try-outs for the fall production were held, and many Sophomores were chosen for parts. Mary Gregory will long be remembered for her portrayal of the beautiful princess, and Ann McCormack for her fine acting in the part of the Quueen. Sophie Pyrtek and Marion Butler looked very odd as curtains. Those artificial eyelashes were really something. We were all grieved to hear of the death of one of our classmates, Vivian johns, who was killed in an automobile accident. Vivian was well liked by all who knew her and is sadly missed by all her friends. Sam Graziano and Russ Gallo started on the road to football fame this year. The clean, hard-rough games that they have always played helped to make them outstanding players. Talking about football, the team had a good showing this year, even though there were many injuries in the team. We had fun with home-room programs. At one of them the students acted out in pantomime some moving picture titles for the rest to guess. So Sidney Orgel, Sam Mehrman, and Herbert Fishkin got up and stood side by side. The movie? Why High, Wide and Handsome. Mr. Piper must have been a little surprised the time Section II Biology class made cultures. When Shirley Greenfield put her finger in one, Mr. Piper carefully explained that some bacteria would grow no matter how clean her hands were. Imagine his surprise and that of the class when nothing grew! The soap Shirley used got a big build-up that week. '41 JUNIUR '42 Our famous Dramatic Club presented its annual fall production Quiet Please and Antic Spring . Remember when? -we beat Red Bank, 25-0. The Junior Class oilicers were elected, the honorable cpositions of president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, respectively, were vote to jack McCarthy, Wally Daniels, Ruth Shreck, Vincent Tanzi. Take your partner-twirl her round -Yes, it's the Barn Dance! Need we say more? We had a musical production, Hey Stranger. And who could forget john Riggi as the twelve year old brat , complete with kn'ickers and lollypop. Mary Gregory, Roderick Kaufman, Fred Hoerl, and Ann McCormack helped make the story a great success by their acting! Remember Fred Hoerl picking imaginary cherries out of the air? Oh! Oh! Aren't the Christmas trees lovely?-Ahem! It took the junior Class to beautify the halls with Christmas boughs and trees so beautifully 511' fi' 52? Mil, ,N K 1 .

What with helping decorate the halls for Christmas and joining with the Seniors to have the time of their lives at the Barn Dance, they're quite an active group. Of course we mustr1't forget the junior Prom. This speaks for itself, as any Junior will tell you! Something else that seems to be quite popular with the underclassmen is a talent show, and they seem to do very well, where talent is concerned. We are, indeed, fortunate to have such ambitious, talented students. Quite a contrast is noticed when the Sophomore activities are men- tioned. They don't have a prom, but manage to have a grand time at an afternoon dance exclusive to Sophomores. A serious side is shown in their home room programs. The theme around which they are centered is, How to make oneself a better citizen and person. It's things like this that make good future citizens! Now we come to our Freshman class! For the past few years, the Freshmen have shown themselves to be alert and industrious. If the juniors don't watch out, they'll exceed them in social affairs. They have a good beginning-an annual talent show! In their home room pro- grams, they learn how to improve their manners and develop their per- sonality, so that in the future, they will be good Seniors!

Their programs consist of the further study of picture-taking, cameras, and developing. Some programs are all instructiveg some are all pleasureg some are both.

CHEMI 'FRY UL I3 Mr. Weiss took over the job of adviser for the Chemistry Club and with him came some unique ideas. The newcomers experienced a terrifying ini- tiation on not the first or second, but the fourth meeting. On the first pro- gram, Chemistry Magic, the group sat fascinated by dancing moth balls and fireworks. With this exception, the work was with war-time topics, and the young chemists learned much about dyes, plastics, soaps, foods, and the con- tact process for sulfuric acid. Linden High Makes History.

Hill llll lllillll Every second Wednesday of the month, with the singing of La Marseillaisen, the French Club members come together, under the supervision of Miss Noddin, for another enjoyable meeting. All the members are required to take French and receive an average of A or B in that subject to join. Annually, during the Christmas season, the French and Latin Clubs get together to sing carols appropriate for that time of year. The interesting activities, planned and carried out by the officers of this association, are a source of great attraction to its members. One of these activities took place last fall, when a party was given to initiate new students into the club. A convenient time was selected, as a Hallowe'en celebration fitted in very well to make the whole idea a success. i The play, jeanne D'Arc , brought many compliments to this popular social group, who sponsored it.

The girls get actual practice for jobs they hope to obtain when they graduate. The teachers in the school employ the girls for a period of one-half year at a time. At the end of that time the girls are given jobs with teachers in dilferent departments. The N- girls who receive secretarial appointments must be capable of doing Eh both their class-work and the required work of their employer. , At the end of each marking period the girls submit a record gf' of their time to Miss McBride. The teachers for whom the girls Q work also rate them on the quality of their work and the manner f Q in which they do it. Each girl has a private conference with Miss it McBride, who indicates faults that may be improved, and praises A P especially meritorious work. A Secretarial Staff is also maintained ii to go out on call to teachers who have no regular secretary or whose secretary may be absent. The work is invaluable in teaching the girls how to adapt themselves to office routine, and assume responsibility. The assistance they give is of great help to the teachers. Row 1 T. Noviello, G.

BAND What would our football games have been like, if it had not been for our band? Last March the band gave a concert in the Linden High School auditorium, the proceeds of which were used to buy War Savings Bonds in the name of the band After the war, the bonds will be cashed in and the money put into the Band Uniform Fund, which will eventually buy the much-needed new uniforms. This year the band also did its bit toward aiding the war effort by building up the morale of the future soldiers. In rain or shine, the band was there at the railroad station to give the draftees their well deserved send-off. Any member of the band will praise, in the cause, their conductor, Mr. W. F. Malpas. Through his efforts the band attained great heights in their musical skill. Rehearsals were held every Tuesday and Friday in the music room. For both the eighth and ninth periods the members worked diligently, striving constantly for betterment. The pieces played ranged from Strauss' Emperor Waltz to In a Toy Shop. At graduation the band played, but instead of seeing the familiar faces of the seniors, there were the awed faces of the future freshmen. The officers were Alfred Cadet, managerg Ernest Markant and Herman Zeit- chik assistant managers, Adeline Gushin, Marie Zepht, and Claire Stewart, libra- rians Helen Andersen, secretary. Row 1 G.

Every Thursday the students of Linden High School marched into the auditorium to a rhythmic march played by the orchestra. At the Christmas assembly the orchestra added its bit by playing wellrknown Christmas music. It was next called upon in February to play between the acts of the Senior Play. The final concert was given at the May Festival, where the selections included works of Wagner, Offenbach, and Grieg. The highlight of the performance was the all- string numbers. Thus the success of extra rehearsals for the string section only was evident. Linden was well represented at the All-State Orchestra. However, on account of transportation dilliculties, the group was unable to spend the weekend in Atlantic City, as had been done in previous years. The concert was held at the Mosque Theater in Newark. Those that were selected to participate were Herbert Fishkin, Eugene Kiel, and Symona Klotz, violing Judith Barr and Charlotte Dvorin, cellog Anna Leiderman viola, Robert Egles, bass, Ernest Markant, trumpet. The ofhcers were Herbert Fishkin, manager, Eugene Kiel and Chester Ma- kowski, assistant managersg Anne Eichhorn, secretaryg Dorothy Weid and Charlotte Dvorin, librarians. The orchestra held its rehearsals every Thursday afternoon in the music room. For both the eighth and ninth periods, this organization strove to attain perfection. ,......- L 'X , s -.f-J, Q GIRL ' Glrllll CLUB A X9 A , , .. , A, y I .,' -5 Fi V, in 1 ,fy if 92 -Q I 4 V332 fre - :ga . - ' P -5. if Mx !

Times of emergency and trouble are not the times to curb musical activity. Everybody Sing , and Strike up the Band , should be the order of the day in times of stress as well as in times of ease. The most natural and at the same time the most universal medium for expressing music is that of singing. As a result, singing affects the entire body more directly and more intimately than any other musical experience does. A group of spe- cialists claim that singing fortilies health, widens culture, refines the intelli- gence, enriches the imagination, makes for happiness and endows life with all added zest . The Girls' Glee Club, directed by Miss Claire Kantner, and accom- panied on.the piano by another faculty member, Miss Helen MacConkey, attempts to put these things within the reach of all girls in the high school. One of the most anticipated assembly programs of the year was the Christ- mas Program presented by the combined Glee Clubs. The girls wore black dresses with white collars, and carried red candles. As the procession walked down the aisles the girls sang Adeste Fideles . The program consisted of many songs bringing to the students a bit of the spirit of Christmas. The numbers by the Girls' Glee Club were In Dulci jubilo and O Santissimon. Anne Eichhorn sang the first verse of Cantique de Noel . Mimi Poley then sang a solo entitled Gesu Bambino . The girls and boys combined to sing joy to the World for the grand finale. The most accomplished singers of the Girls' Glee Club are chosen for the A Capella Choir. Later they have try-outs for a special girls' chorus, 1 if-4,-rl' 43,1 Row 1 A. D. . , U , l Ashworth, J. Bayusz, A.. Eichhorn, M. J. Gantley, D. Petuskey. Row 2 G. Houlroyd, M. Sea- mans, S.

The May Festival is a much-looked-forward-to event in the lives of f'4Qg,Q,,f the students. This is the only paid program during the course of the year. 55 5 5 The proceeds are used to send representatives to the All-State Convention. , A but F .ML . The All-State Convention is represented by both the vocal and the instru- ,, mental department. The 1943 May Festival was an international program. Nations represented were America, Poland, Scotland, Russia, England, and China. The setting tried to show the unity of nations. The background was red, white and blue, with a huge American flag in the center. On each side of the flag were figures representing some of the United Nations. The girls wore costumes to represent the different countries which they portrayed. The Glee Club sang songs and did the various native dances repre- senting these different countries. The program also featured several soloists. The officers of the Glee Club are chosen at the last meeting of the year for the coming year. The officers this year are president, Mimi Poleyg secretary, Phyllis Fairbanksg treasurer, janet Bajuszg librarian, Winnie Ash- worthg assistant librarian, Leona Parker, manager, Anne Eichhorn. The Girls' Glee Club is one of the largest organizations in the school, consisting of more than one hundred girls. It meets every Tuesday after- noon. It gives its members an experience that will enable them to grow in musical power and understanding, and to develop a deeper and wiser love for music as a fine art. Row 1 M. Eichhorn, D. Krahling, M.

Most of us rid ourselves of the urge by way of the proverbial bath tub troubador. Others take the most logical way out and join the Boys' Glee Club. A year or two ago this club was known as a new club, but now whenever the music department is men- tioned, visions of assemblies, May Festival, and Christmas program are brought to mind with the knowledge that the Boys' Glee.Club was a main-stay of these activi- ties. Miss Kantner is the sponsor of the club. 'PHE A CAPELLA Ulllllll Students especially interested in singing and already members of the glee clubs are given the opportunity to become members of the A Capella Choir, by a series of competitive tryouts. The Choir, under the direction of Miss Claire Kantner, is made up of about forty or fifty students who sing for many programs, such as Assemblies, P. T. A., and the Christmas program. They also have an outstanding part in the May Festival. Some members are chosen to compete in the all-state Chorus Contest, and some for the all-state solo contest. Last year Alfred Cadet, a tenor, and Alex Mac' Millan, a bass, were chosen for the all-state chorus, which presented a concert at the Mosque Theater at Newark. This year the balance of the A Capella Choir was hampered because of the many boys who have entered the various branches of the Armed Service. Row 1 S. Halas, A. Billick, C. Anthony, S.

A 'K 'N Z' f .I P' fin .ffw .ff EVERY FAMILY llil 0 ll Every Family Has One was the title of the play given on February 5th and 6th by the Senior Class of 1943. It was a three-act comedy written by George Batson, and presented by special arrangement with Samuel French, New York. The play opens with Penelope Reardon fCarolyn Rodenj practicing the piano. Penny is an adorable little imp who is the apple of her grandmother's eye. The Reardon family is busily engaged in preparation for the forthcoming marriage of Marcia Reardon fMary jane Gantlyj and Sherwin Parker fCharles Harveyj. Laura Reardon fClaire Schreckj, a social climber, is thrilled about the marriage. She lightly passes off the remarks about her relatives made by Nana fDorothea Caseyj in the presence of their house guest, Mrs. Parker QAnn Savitskyj. james Parker fMichael Kovacsj is in favor of the marriage, for it would unite his business with Reginald Reardon's fHugh Harkinsj. Few people realize that Marcia's true love is Todd Galloway fThomas Wilkensonj. One of these is Warry fForest Dudlyj, the only son of the Reardons. Warry believes himself to be another Eugene O'Neill. He is mothered by Essie fKristine Kowalskij, the maid of all work. Nana with the help of Lily fAnn Denise McCormackj cleverly manages to unite Marcia and Todd, and to get rid of the Parkers. Lily, an imaginative cousin, who wants to be an actress, tells tall tales about the Ref rdons' relatives. The desired effect is produced. The cast was coached by Miss Helena Gilkeson, who certainly was the one who worked the hardest on the play. Dot Weid was stage manager and had Betty Houlroyd as her assistant. The play was chosen by the reading committee in December. Those on the committee were as follows: joseph Reczka, Chairman, Harriet Stofan, Dorothy Weid, Hugh Harkins, and Claire Schreck, with Miss Gilkeson and Miss Ranney assisting them. Try-outs were held and then the parts were announced in mid-December. Committees were appointed and the work began. The stage was unusual in the fact that there were two levels and a stairway. Under the direction of Mr. Yeisley, Mike Derelanko, Walter Deveikis, john Filmon- chick, Erwin Lebowitz, Charles Russell, and Louis Scalza built the scenery planned by Margaret Berlinski. Shall we ever forget the surprised look on Miss Gilkeson's face when she saw the scenery completed two weeks ahead of time! The costumes had to be gathered, tried on, tested under lights, and a million and one other things had to be done. Helen Mahar had Stella Drewniak, Leona Handera, Mildred Rashkind, Seena Sossin, Harriet Stofan, jean Zanetti, james Har- per, and Raymond Kostyack working with her. Miss McBride offered many valua- ble suggestions to this group. The varied type of characters gave the make-up committee a chance to dem- onstrate their talent. The people who applied the make-up were Selma Morrison, Chairman, Lorraine Pugash, Rebecca Gellin, Sophie Pyrtek and Stanley Berkowitz. Dorothy Ristau headed the property committee. Alice Lenser, Emily Soos, Robert Egles, and Louise Koscielniak were her able assistants. Miss Lang was the faculty adviser. The difiicult job of distributing tickets was assigned to Ann Zavoda, Chair- man, Margaret Berlinski, Betty Gonska, Flora juliano, Evelyn McCluskey, Martha O'Krepke, Amelia Samalonis, and Helen Wiewiorska, advised by Mr. Buckman. Shirley Andrews, Barbara Byko, Louise LaFerrara, Audrey Rosenberg, Ruth Schreck, Mildred Schubert, Elizabeth Sep, janet Simmel, Margaret Wagner, and Eleanor Zych acted as ushers, and many approving glances were cast in their directions. Shall we ever forget Mike Kovacs' embarrassment when he accidentally en- tered the girls' dressing room, or the blushing face of Tommy Wilkenson after his embrace with Mary jane! Poor Tommy, the teasing he took. The reaction that swept over the group when we learned that live members of the cast fell ill on the day of the afternoon performance! Who will forget the Lucrezia Borgia motions of Forest's or Ann's bath robe and night gown? Carol practiced for hours the St. Louie Blues for her two-second debut at the piano. We all know that the hard work was worth it. GERMAN UL li The German Club, ably led by Mr. Moldaschl, Adviser, Katherine Dooley, President, and Emily Soos, Secretary-Treasurer, is both interesting and instructive. In addition to the annual dance, this spring the Club went on a picnic in Rahway River Park. Row 1 M. Gregory, J. Zanetti, H. Harvan, C. Dooley, Mr. Moldaschl, E, Soos, D. Casey R. jack, D. Weid.

They teach all enthusiasts how to play, but they are more concerned with improving the games of the more experienced. Since the group started the Chess Club late in the school year, they have been meeting often to assure themselves of being fully prepared for the spring tournaments. RADIO CLUB The Radio Club, composed mainly of freshmen and sophomores, presented Mr. Yeisley with a serious problem. In order to study radio, you must know physics, and since it is taught only as a senior subject, Mr. Yeisley had first to teach the Radio Club many principles. They began to study the radio and, after several months of basic training, are enjoying the fascinating instrument. GARDEN CLUB It is not surprising that a garden club was formed this year, and by Mr. Barr, for he is a member of the Victory Garden Committee for our Civilian Defense Council. The members are having both flower gardens and victory gardens this spring, and this club will give them many helpful hints on improving their garden- ing. They are planning to sponsor a trip to Rutgers' Biological Laboratories - also to increase their gardening knowledge. STUDENT CO-OP With Mr. Taranto as adviser, the Co-op Club was formed to understand further all consumers' problems. This club has undertaken several projects, giving helpful information to the consumer. Their most important one was the establish- ing of a Consumers' Information Center. All the latter part of the year they have displayed charts and table-projects on rationing, victory gardens and the current consumers' problems. L1 si .4 A time ws. fi!

F00'l'llALL Although most of his '41 team had been graduated, Coach Ted Cooper set to work with his new men early in the fall. Gallo and Sam Graziano, co-captains, showed their ability as leaders as soon as'the season started. On Friday evening, under lights, Linden met its strong Alumni. After holding their own during the first half, the Tigers bowed down to the overpowering Grads. Taking on Wood- bridge and then Red Bank, defeating them both, we seemed on the start of a good year. Meeting Rahway on the homelield, our team led 7-6 until the last quarter. In the last four minutes of the game, Rahway, on a quarter back sneak, made its second touchdown. Our next game was with Roselle. This really was a thriller. Roselle scored 15 points in the first half, but in the second half Linden came through with two touchdowns. ' Had we been able to convert after the touchdowns we would have tied, but, unable to do this, we lost 13-12. Linden looked on again as it met Cranford at home. Passes were completed and the Tigers walked away with the game, swamping their opponents. Then Hillside came to town, and left it, triumphant. On that cold November day the Tigers went to Carteret, the weather was so bad neither team could score, and the game ended in a nothing-nothing tie. The last game of the season, with Union, was a good game for Linden. Our team scored 3 touchdowns to Union's one. All in all we broke about even this year, winning four, losing four,. and tying one.

VAR l'l'Y BA KETBALL ll All Led by Captain Ed Eska, the Linden High 42-43 basketball team turned in an excellent record of 14 wins and 4 losses. This was the first winning season for the Orange and Black netsters in three years. This year, for the first time, the boys were directed by Coach Al Nogi. The season started when the Tigers beat the Regional 'team 34-31. It was a pretty exciting game especially since Regional was trained by Leslie Goodwin, our own former coach. Four days later North Plainfield was nosed out by a point, 24-23. BA KETBALL S0 All After dropping two games to Rahway and Cranford, we whipped the Rahway boys for the first time in six games, 31-26. Three other victories followed this great event. Then Central of Newark, a Group 4 school, beat Eska and Co., 45-32. Among the next four victims of the Tigers were a strong Hillside team, and jeffer- son High, another Group 4 outfit. In a letdown after the jefferson victory, the Black and Orange lost to Plainfield, 29-25. Four victories finished out the regular season for Linden. Row 1 R. Chase, A. Tanzi. Row 2 Mr. Kalla, J.

BA EBALL The 1942 Baseball campaign ended with our little Tigers winning 6 out of the 15 games played. This 400 average is not too impressive, yet we can well be proud of the boys that made up the squad. They possessed that fight which is so necessary for the morale of a team. W'hether they were at the short end of a score or the long end, they were still in -there, pitching. The team opened the season by defeating Weequahic to the tune of 6-5. They then met a strong Plainfield nine that defeated them 13-10. In their next two games, they showed themselves to be worthy of the praise of their fellow students by defeating Roselle Park and Cranford 9-7 and 2-1, respectively. After these two successive victories, they met North Plainfield High School and were beaten 7-2. The team then returned to form and nosed out Rahway 4-3. After suffering an 11-4 defeat at the hands of jefferson, they turned back a strong Woodbridge team 4-3. Cranford again returned to town and once more was beaten, this time 3-1. The team then went into a slump, losing their remaining 5 games. Lew Goetz led the team in the number of hits and his batting average of .325 was by far the best on the squad. joe Novalany came next with an average of ,293. joe proved more valuable to the team than his average would indicate, since the majority of his blows were extra basers and in- strumental in the team's attack. Emil Vargo, our hard hitting southpaw first baseman, came next with an average of .Z69. Emil Babulski, though only having ,a batting average of .216, turned out to be a most valuable man on the squad in that he was a very good handler of the then green pitch- ing staff, which included such rookies as Dooley and Popyk, who under his direction became win- ning pitchers.

TRACK The 1942 version of the Linden High School track team was led into action by its Co-Cap- tains, Charles Hollosy, 220-yard state champion, and john Lang. The Linden silksters were the defending Group Three State titleholders, but they had lost heavily through graduation. On April thirteenth, the season opened at the Long Branch Relays. Linden managed to come off with third place. The first dual meet of the year was held with Hillside. The meet was very close, Hillside just nosing out the Orange and Black, 60-57. Hollosy took four first places to garner twenty points. At the Penn Relays, Linden again took third place. A second dual meet defeat was written into the books by Union when they won a six point victory, 61-56. Again Hollosy was good for twenty points. At the annual Newark Board of Education meet the silksters came in fourth in point pro- duction. Two fifth places were garnered at the Ridgewood and Perth Amboy relays. Hollosy met his first real competition in Smart of Regional High School. As Linden went down to defeat at Re- gional's hands, 6616-SOVZ, Smart nosed out Hollosy in the century, while Hollosy took the 220-yard dash. Linden's first win came at the expense of Rahway, 68-49. This was followed by a win over Cranford, 71-46. On May 27, Linden emerged victorious from a triangular meet with Westheld and North Plainfield. The point totals were 60M-48-34M respectively. In the county meet Linden came in third. Hollosy was the only winner, defeating Smart in both dashes. Disaster then struck the Linden squad. Eddie Dagnes, who was improving at every meet, sprained his ankle. On one of the trial heats at the state tournament, Charley Hollosy pulled a leg muscle and was unable to continue. The major point-getters for the silksters were Hollosy in the dashes and broad jump, Lang in the hurdles, Belt in all activities, and Dagnes in the high jump. The fact that there was no consistent distance runner was the deciding 'factor in the loss of close dual meets. Eddie Dagnes, johnny Riggi, and Sam Graziano proved to be very promising juniors.

Hamdera, I, Hudak, I. Sum, S. Grcenheld, Every day after school many girls may be seen in the gym practicing volley- ball or basketball. The purpose of this practicing is to try to improve the playing of the teams so that they may be the victors in the interclass tournament. It is the aim of every girl to gain 200 points toward getting a numeral or 300 points toward get' ting an L. The girl that gets the highest number of points is awarded a special I.. Only by going out for every sport is it possible to get an L. The volleyball tournament is the first to be held every year. This year the Sophomores came in first, with each girl on the team winning 100 points. The Seniors came in second, winning 75 points, the juniors third, winning 50 pointsg and the Freshmen came in last, with each girl getting 25 points. The foul shooting tournament followed, with Ann White coming in first, shooting 50 baskets out of 75. Alberta Koscielniak came in second, shooting 47 baskets out of 75, and Dorothy Ristau came in third, shooting 46 baskets out of 75. After the Christmas vacation the best liked sport of all, basketball, started in earnest. Every day different teams would practice until the teams were good enough to really tight out the championship. The Sophomore class won the coveted title as basketball champs. The junior class came in second, while the Senior and Freshmen teams tied for third place. Wigs Cllllllli Lllzlllllli A s egg S 7 K v it K' e .V Q at .Y ,E 5 gigs!!

These girls and xFussy Palermo, our only male cheerleader, have spent much time practis- ing and perfecting many cheers. The girls usually go to the away games, but this year gas rationing prevented it. The squad will lose many of its cheerleaders in the graduating class. New recruits tried out for cheerleading right after the basketball season. Row 1 M. Aimone, A. Davis, A. Palermo, KI, Fersterowski, A. O'Keefe. Row 2 B, Sterner, M, Thomas, G.

This morning class dealt chiefly with calisthenicsg although the boys did find some time to play a bit of basketball. During the periods in which boxing was taught, it was not at all uncommon to see some belligerent walking down the halls with noticeable scars of battle. These rigid workouts have served the purpose for which they were intended. The boys who have left for the service and who will leave in the near future will vouch for that. BUY 'l TERULASS The 1943 interclass basketball season ended with the rampaging juniors on top of their respective leagues. Each team had a schedule of nine games, losing only one game apiece to the corresponding Senior teams. The two junior teams then played a game to determine who was champion. The junior A team defeated the B team by a. total of seven points. We of the Senior class wish to offer our congratulations to those high-scoring juniors. In view of the fact that the junior teams were such well-built units, we suffered no humiliation by going down in defeat to them. Incidentally, the Sophomore teams showed plenty of fight, and as juniors next year, they'll give this year's champions a whale of a battle. SEPTEMBER Golly, just think, ten months of work! Boy, I sure hate to start that old grind again. Gee, does being a senior feel any different to you? OCTOBER Doesn't football start soon? When are our senior pictures taken? Oh, well, Christmas is in December, and that isn't too far off. I think I'll try out for the Senior Play. Say, I wonder if we're going to have a prom this year. jack McCarthy was re-elected class president. Cold weather set in, and if we had an oil burner, we did a little shivering. NOVEMBER I thought yours were perfect. Oh, no, mine were terrible. That's right! Seniors got their proofs back. Since hay wasn't rationed, we still had our barn dance. So many girls wore slacks, it wasn't until I was halfway home that I realized it wasn't a fella's arm I had. Remember the swell time we had watching the Carteret game, blue with cold, and shivering so much we couldn't even cheer? The turkey day game was postponed till the following Saturday, but it was a swell game to close the season with. fWe won.j DECEMBER We certainly covered up the old sores of football, by winning our Hrst basket- ball game. Congratulations, boys! Ah, yes, those beautifully decorated halls! The Juniors this year did almost as well as we did last year. No kidding, juniors, they looked swell. Along came Santa with his sled and reindeer! Guess the gas rationing hit him hard, too. JANUARY Happy New Year, everybody. Well, well, january already, only five more months to go. Rehearsals for Every Family Has One are going strong. In case you see someone who looks a little queer, don't worry, it's just one of the cast. First they took the sugar from our coffee, then the coffee from our cup. That wasn't too bad, but when they said no pleasure driving, that really hurt. FEBRUARY In case M.G.M. is looking for some good talent, they don't have to go any further. We have all they want right here. The Senior Play proved that. fSpecialty: Love Scenesj. Happy Holiday! - Those half days we had off because of War Ration Book 2 being issued. Note: Can any one lend me a couple of gallons of oil? brrr ---- ! Arthur Murray taught us dancing in a hurry. Forty minutes full of rhumbas, fox-trots and jitterbugging. All that and certificates, too! flf you won.j There were a lot of these masterpieces in the mail boxes around Valentine's Day. Did you get one? Roses are red, Violets are blue. Sugar is rationed But I shall have you. QI hopej MARCH The Arthur Murray dancers must have had some effect on our gym teachers. We've been doing the rhumba in gym class. Why is it that the tall girls always get short boys as partners? Flash: Wanted: Male Age: Not particular Qualification: Good dancer Reason: Senior Prom The band held their second concert, and it was swell. just think, some day when the bonds are' cashed and we see some classy-looking uniforms marching down the street, we'll know it's Linden's Band, and will we be proud! APRIL The gals put away the sloppy sweaters, and the guys set aside their saddle shoes 111217, ration cardj. Everyone donned evening duds, and you really had to look twice to recognize your best friends. Yep, it's the senior prom. With the gym decorated, an orchestra playing softly in the background, what does any swell night club have that we haven't? The only things we missed this Easter were the chocolate Easter bunnies which weren't plentiful this year. MAY The theme of the May Festival was United Nations, and it made us feel a little more patriotic. Miss Kantner and the Glee Clubs certainly entertained us. The Orchestra deserves more praise, too. The great day at last! The Cynosure arrives. All those months of work were worth it, weren't they, kids? JUNE The Grand Finale! After receiving those diplomas and leaving good old Linden High, memories of all those good times come back. All in all, these four years were swell. C' af Myles J. McManus MAYOR H.
