This was the first time in four long years that Plainfield had won the triangle championship, and thus it was truly a cause for rejoicing. This glorious victory was the climax of a long debating season. In early October the debating club held its first meeting and elected David Lloyd president. VARS TY AFFIRMATIVE DEBATING? EE AM Bernard Angleman, (Alternate), Janet Miller, Mr. C. Donovan, (Coach) William Schuldenfrei, Carl Claus, Jr. (Captain) Debates in the club covered a wide range of interesting subjects, and all club members who were willing participated. Some of the subjects were, compulsory biology, the new plan in debating, tariff and free trade, and Sunday movies. The club also held informal discussions at some of its meetings. The debates were open to the school, and were frequently attended by numbers of students. On February 18th the Junior-Senior class debate was held in chapel. The question was: “Resolved, that capital punishment should be abolished.’ The members of the affirmative Junior team were, in order of speaking, Bernard Angleman, Benedict Bernstein, Benjamin Tepper, with the rebuttal by Angleman. The negative Senior team was composed of William Schuldenfrei, Millicent Telfer and Joseph Flexer. William Schuldenfrei gave the rebuttal for the negative. David Lloyd was the chairman. The judges’ decision was three to nothing in favor of the negative. This debate was the crowning achievement of the intra- mural debating season. Now all energies were bent toward developing a strong school team for the triangular debates. The question for the triangle debate, which was to be held on March 30th, was: “Resolved, that the Philippine Islands should be granted immediate independence. The results of the tryouts for the affirmative team were as follows: Carl Claus, Captain; Janet Miller, William Schuldenfrei, Bernard Angleman, alternate. The negative team: David Lloyd, Captain; Millicent Telfer, Lester Reed, Benjamin Tepper, alternate. Tepper took Telfer’s place in rebuttal. The teams journeyed to New York and Newark in search of material, and spent much time in developing strong, well built arguments. Their efforts were well rewarded by their double victory. VARSITY NEGATLY FE DEBATING TAN J. Lester Reed, David Lloyd (Captain), Benjamin Tepper (Alternate) Millicent Telfer, Mr. Banta (Coach) Debating received more interest and support from the school than in any previous year, and as a whole, the debating season was very successful. Much praise for this success is due to Miss Le Fevre and Miss Cumming, who were ever ready to help the debating club, and to Mr. Banta and Mr. Dunovan, who so ably coached the varsity teams. Although debating in the year 1926-1927 was more successful than in previous years it still fell far short of the plans projected for it. For various reasons many: ideas could not be carried out. It was hoped that a more extensive series of inter-class debates might be held in Chapel. This plan has the advantages of training students in the lower classes ‘in formal debate thus preparing more material for the varsity teams and arousing more interest in the school at large. There is no reason why, with this year’s foundation, this plan could not be put into effect next year. Inasmtuch as only three of this year’s varsity will be left next year a series of inter-class debates will be particularly valuable in recruiting new material. Many new ideas which were experimented with on a small scale within the club this year could be tried in Chapel next year. Such progressive movements include the decision by audience, selection of sides immediately before the debate, and other methods used to encourage informal speaking which were discussed at the East Orange Conference. The East Orange Conference, which was held early in th year, showed that the trend in debating in New Jersey is toward new departures and the increase of informality of debate. ‘Debate for debate’s sake” is the policy advocated. It is to Plainfield’s credit that it is progressing along these lines. 66 af ‘ : PH i EEL ES EINIOR PLAY: The Senior Play was one of the most successful and most colorful productions that has ever found its way on the High School stage. The class of ’27 was not satisfied with mediocre plays ; their choice was ““Arms and the Man,” by the modern dramatist, George Bernard Shaw. With a war in the half-civilized Balkans as his background, Shaw draws a charming comedy, ridiculing sentimentality and martial bombast and portraying the soldier as a man. The heroine, “Raina,” a daughter of a Bulgarian patrician, who falls in love with the Swiss soldier of fortune, was played by Dorothy Hedburg. In a part requiring a sustained pitch of good acting Dot gave a flawless performance. Catherine, the mother of the heroine, a social climber with a practical mind, was ably portrayed by Dare Coale, who distinguished herself in this role. Cornelia De Reamer played the role of the maid of the family, a headstrong and pretty peasant girl, with great nerve and spirit. The leading male role, that of a Swiss professional soldier, Blumtschli, who is very practical and hard headed, even in matters of love, was successfully acted by David Lloyd. Harold Dayton played Sergius Saranoff, an emotional Bulgarian soldier, Raina’s betrothed, with great dash and success. Hamilton Artely ably filled the part of the good natured Major Petkoff, the father of the family. Lester Reed played the part of Nicola, the family butler and the only character in the play who knew what he wanted, with great conviction. Herbert Walters played the Russian officer who entered, with military precision, in the first act searching for a fugitive. The scenery, for which all credit is due to the stage committees, formed a beautiful background for the brilliant costumes and flashing uniforms of the actors. All in all, “Arms and the Man” was a great success. 67 HI-TRI Hi-Tri is the Girl Reserve Club of Plainfield High School, which every girl is invited to join. This organization is a part of the Y. W. C. A. Girl Reserve international program. It strives to establish physical, social, mental, and spiritual ideals by means of its many activities. The program this year consisted of such festivities, as a Fashion Show, Song Contest, World Fellowship Pageant, June Fete, Swimming Meet, and other equally enjoyable entertainments. The purpose 2) of the local Hi-Tri is, “to work with joy, that we may make love visible,” while the national purpose is, “to find and give the best.” RETIRING OFFICERS INCOMING OFFICERS Pres.

M. C. A., bringing the “Y” and the “Y” ideals into closer contact with the school, and the school into closer contact with the “Y,” the Church and the Community. The club’s purpose is to spread the Christian ideals of clean speech, clean sports and clean scholarship. The Plainfield Hi-Y includes boys from both Plainfield and North Plainfield High Schools. The membership is restricted, and an effort is made to admit only those fellows who are leaders in the high schools. The Junior Hi-Y is composed of boys from the two lower classes, and meets every Monday in the “Y” for dinner. For 1926-1927 the Junior officers were: President, Charles Beebe; secretary, Vaughn Mackey; treasurer, Dean Cornwell. The Senior Hi-Y, composed of upper classmen, meets every Thursday evening in “Y” for dinner and discussion. The officers for 1926-1927 were: President, Andrew Czoly; vice-president, Henry Drake; secretary, David Lloyd; treasurer, Eugene Hampson. For 1927-1928 the Senior Club officers will be as follows: President, Charles Beebe; vice-president, Joseph Morrison; secre- tary, Vaughn Mackey; treasurer, Dean Cornwell. To fill the vacancies left by many members of the Senior Club on graduation, the entire Junior Club has been promoted to Senior membership. The program of the Hi-Y this year was interesting and varied. Rotary Night, at which Hi-Y members brought Rotarians as guests. proved a great success, and a means of bringing the important men of Plainfield and the boys together. Faculty night, the annual dinner with the teachers of both schools was another memorable occasion. Although such special meetings necessarily curtailed the discussions, they were felt to be well worth the sacrifice. 69 CLASS POEM Our vessel grates the harbor’s welcoming sand, We rise from toil and from the weary oars, A hand-clasp ere we tou ch the sought-for shores, Or ere we seek another distant strand, Who years together have our brave ship manned, And won our way through Fate’s relentless wars, And pilfered spoil from Time’s old treasure stores, A hand-clasp ere we walk the happy land. But still, fleet-flying Life calls, “On and on!” We dare not stay, so to new keels and spars; Each one now steers his solitary way To lands where even the sun himself seems wan, Beyond the limits of the everlasting stars— Grant God may lead us to his endless day. —David Lloyd. a = Zao o © Li = 1G A tN : | : ly og Oo � . | = 2 1 TALC 7 z = G GO?

With hearts of glee and pride they came, With hearts of verdant green, They seemed to be the rawest lot That ever had been seen. They walked about the vastly halls, With bright eyes opened wide, But ere a month or two had passed They laid all fear aside. Young Miller led the stalwart band, But money had they nane; So they up and gave a jolly film, “The Tale of Ichabod Crane.” The school ail sat before the screen And watched the tale unfold; The Freshmen chuckled up their sleeves, And told the yellow gold. In scholarship they did great things, Had never before been done, And monie were the bright guerdons The happy Freshmen won. Then up and sprang three maidens fair And honors took they three, And medals for' High Honor roll They got and kept with glee. The fishes in the finny deep Could never swim like these; Our Freshmen won the swimming meet With unexampled ease. Thus they began their bright career, And seldom did they fail; So- now their deeds have won them fame, Their fame will never pale. Es And now their second year begins, Young Miller leads them still ; But still their store of gold is low Within the treasury’s till. In early days our fathers fought And heaved the battle axe; They claimed that in them only was The right to lay a tax. 72 And so the So phomores on themselves A heavy duty lay, And gladly each his quarter did Into the treasury pay. And this the reason of it was: The Seniors then were broke, Which fate the Sophomores thought to ’scape By this financial stroke. And on the chapel stage they shone With great ability And promise gave of acting skill That later was to be. Lest someone think they were behind In the dramatic press , “Priscilla and John Alden” was Produced in modern dress And so their second year does close, With glorious victory won. They almost upperclassmen are— Their course is half-way run. III. The happy Junior year began Sans governmental flaws, And this the weighty reason was, The president, Carl Claus. And in the happy Junior year Old custom does ordain, Some one-act plays must be produced In spite of toil or pain. Committees labored as they might ; The costumes shone in vain; The “Golden Doom’ was doomed at sight ; “The Rehearsal” just the same. Forsooth, the acting it was good, Forsooth, the “props” were grand; Forsooth, the plays were acted just As Miss LeFevre had planned. And yet the money did not come— The coffers still were bare, Except for some few paltry coins The plays had gathered there. This only goes to prove that what The public does demand Is never “art” or noble stuff In this, our “low brow” land. Of mashed potatoes, peas and punch, Chicken, cream and cake The Seniors, after roasting us, Did lustily partake. And after all the food was gone, The larders eaten clean, Bob Adams’ gang played loud and lang; We danced ’til late at e’en. George Broadbent said, in summing up At a poste rior date, , “Tt was the greatest Senior feed Since back in nineteen-eight.”’ To reimburse the flattened purse Another tax was laid, And every week the Juniors meek A nickel sadly paid. And ever new in things to do The Juniors proudly said, “We'll give a dance where all can prance Until the hour for bed.” In all the High School’s history Since Noah struck a calm, The best and most exciting dance, It was the Junior Prom. When May her fragrant blossoms spread In balmy airs of spring, The building’s halls sweet echo made of that glad evening. The building’s halls sweet echo gave ; The dancing couples swayed, ‘And it of Springtime’s gaiety A happy climax made. And on the glorious cinder track The Juniors victories made, And left the other classes far, O, far back in the shade. And thus in joy and triumph high They close their Junior year. Vacation flies, and soon they all As Seniors appear. IV. ‘And now the final year has come; Its ending brings you fame; The Seniors’ shoulders bow beneath The books they carry hame. “Of all that I survey I am A veritable king.” And thus the happy Seniors thought At the High School’s opening. “O, all that I survey, I find Means extra work for me,” And this the saddened Seniors knew, Ere many months did flee. A daring thing, a noble thing, That never had been done By any High School anywhere Beneath the blazing sun. To every Senior great and small Twelve cuts a year were given, Twelve cuts for which committees bold Had valiantly striven. Through thick and thin, through shout and din, Then Senior cuts were taken, Through din and shout, both thin and stout Had faith in them unshaken. They said, “The purpose?” “To increase Your interest in knowledge, And eke responsibility That you will have in college.” “Responsibility’s the key, Of every loaf the leaven, And this responsibility Was put on ‘twenty-seven’.” The Junior Roast, it is their boast, Was done exceeding well, For many wicked Juniors Were toasted brown in Hell. All clad in red, the Devil said, “Bring forth the guilty creatures!” The Seniors sang; a fiendish light Lit up their eager features. The officers then gaily said, “Let’s give another dance; We like to see the money fill The pockets of our pants.” And so they gave the Senior Hop With much of style and swank, And carefully stowed the coins away To hoard them in the bank. Now on the weighty question Of punishment by death The Juniors and the Seniors Did waste a lot of breath.. The Seniors stood for hanging, The Juniors were more mild, “But mildness does not win debates,” The kindly judges smiled. For after all the racket When the echoes were no more The Seniors stood the winners By a three-to-nothing score. In every play the Committee read There was some damning flaw, Until they came to “Arms and the Man,” By the great George Bernard Shaw. With scenery reared, and faces smeared And actors primed to go, Then slowly up the curtain went On this dramatic show. Of all the plays the School had seen None ever’ reached the height That the Seniors did in “Arms and the Man” On that epochal night. Of all the plays the School had seen None ever got the applause That they all gave on March the twelfth To this one play of Shaw’s. And then examinations came And when that scourge did pass, The final joyous rites were held For the graduating class. The school was very different When “twenty seven” came, And after four long years of us, It isn’t quite the same. For after four long years of us The school’s changed quite a bit, But mostly for the best we hope, We really hope that’s it. And now we leave you sadly; We’re on the road to heaven, Or maybe to the other place— The class of twenty-seven! —David Lloyd. 76 AC ( Shel gees 4 9 la . Seale gt NES 2 =!

The smell became stronger. It seemed a combination of brimstone and hydrogen sulphide, not particularly aromatic. Suddenly, there was a puff of smoke in one corner of the room, and when the smoke rolled away, lo, there stood a gentleman clad in red tights, with a pair of highly burnished horns sprouting from his head, and with a long and muscular tail wrapped around his pitchfork. The fact that he was slightly translucent did not in any way lessen the volume of his voice nor the surprise of his sudden appearance. The Board was considerably shocked, although of course it was not the first time that the devil had been raised in the Oracle Room. The apparition jumped on, the table, stuck the prongs of his fork through the varnished surface, and said, in a voice of thunder, “I’m Mephistopheles !” “Another Greek!’ moaned the Advertising Manager. D to} “Do you realize, young varlets,” roared our visitor, “that these are the last days of your High School life? Do you realize that ere long you will cease to exist as High School students, and you will be cast out in a cold and cruel world?” “Ves,” the Board mumbled. “Well, before you die, make out your Last Will and Testament, or else and here he ground his teeth, ‘“‘we’ll have to put up a new furnace in Hell!” So saying, he snapped his fingers and disappeared in a cloud of smoke. 9 The Board grabbed pencils and paper, and feverishly wrote the following: We, the Class of ’27, firmly rooted in the habit of having three meals a day, and in possession of any faculties left us by cramming for examinations, not know- ing what may happen between now and next week, pen the following while we have the chance; and we parsimoniously bequeath all our worldly goods left us after printing the year book as follows: 1. To George Broadbent: One Canadian dime. 2. To Mr. Best: Plainfield High School, with all its chattels, appurte- nances, etc., etc., that is, all we left of it. 3. To Miss Moore: All Senior cuts that have not been used, for her own personal use next year. (There may be a few left.) 4. To Miss Cumming, Miss Brown, and Miss Gilbert: A choice collec- tion of dime novels, for which we have no further use since we've read Macbeth. 5. To Mr. Beers: Three molecules of hot air, and our year book. 6. To Mr. Garthwaite and Mr. Boyer: The only problem we couldn’t solve, the trisection of an angle. 7. To Mr. Clement: One typewriter ribbon (frayed) and many thanks. 8. To Mr. Burdick: One copy of the “Censor’s Handbook” (not that Mr. Burdick needs it). 78 9. To Miss Bass, Miss Egerton, Miss Porter and Miss Bissell: One San- skrit Dictionary, in which they can find some really hard rules and verbs. 10. To Mr. Hubbard: One bottle of hair-tonic (to be used to keep the mosquitoes away in the Canadian woods). 11. To all underclassmen: One bottle of paste, so that they can all stick together next year. In witness whereof, on this particular day of 1927 A. D. (we've forgotten the date), with a sigh of relief, we set our seal, together with our foot and finger prints, Amen.

Though she will repeatedly refuse, he, placing his monocle to his eye, will say, “Kay, deah, it doesn’t mattah ‘How’ard’ you say no—I will not give you up.” Elma Avery A word of warning, friends! Don’t ask Elma to run your errands, because she'll say, “Let ‘George’ do it. His ‘Car-l run much better than mine.” Elma will become a florist and experiment in crossing “Henderson” seeds— to get flowers of scarlet hues—in the city of ““Dayton’a. “Arp” Balogh “Arpie” is a “Ruth” less young lad. After working as a draft clerk (opening and closing doors) for six months, he will no longer be able to contain himself. Squaring his shoulders and puffing out his chest, Arp will plunge in the Atlantic and swim to London. Blanche Berger We don’t say that Blanche is tight, bue she sees “Red” when she has to pay a “Bill.” Her future will be “Steris’(s) if she doesn’t look out, because there is a “John” with blue eyes and black hair. “Mike” Blair After winning the World’s Champion Tennis Tournament, “Mike” will look for some new, sports to conquer. She'll ask her father “Kinney” spare her enough money to go out to Arizona, where she'll join an Indian Tribe and beat the “Tom”’-tom to an original incantation—‘Hom-Er” “Car-O]-I”’— Hom-Er-Car-Ol-l. Jeanette Boos After Jeannette has graduated from Normal she will teach at “Chester,” where she will make enough “Jack” to pay her “Bills” and take a trip up the ima renccm Lorraine Bradshaw After Lorraine’s heart has been “Pierced” by a “Baker,” she will go to Paris where she will exhibit the lastest “French’’ fashions in s“Hughes”. Louise Brower We predict for Louise a brilliant dramatic career. Before she goes into the world, she will take a P. G. at Annapolis. She will then study “Art” at “Krymer” in Chicago, where they make “Ham” (Hamley). Sylvester Bretz When Sylvester grows up, he will have a Cadillac sales room lined with mirrors. In 1956 he will die, but his name will appear in Who’s Who as the winner of the International Crease-in-the-Pants Contest. Lena Brick Lena is all ‘“Vet.’’ She says she wants “Moravec’ation (vacation) and less of school so she can take up her “Jim” work. (Lena is especially interested in football, and we are sure that some day she’ll have a little pig-skin of her own. ) Emma Carmen “Fad” Emma any cash in her “Jeans” she would have gone to the swimming meet. She would have taken her poodle dog, which barks a funny little bark that sounds something like, “Arp, arp!” Homer Caroli Homer wants to be a Greek oracle. He will go and live in “Adele” in the back wood of “Tex’’as. There, however, he will develop a slight attack of asthma and Dr. “Blair” will be called upon to attend the case. Ralph Carpenter When Ralph goes to Cornell, he'll find it very difficult to learn “Frances,” and we are afraid that as a means of drowning his sorrow he will turn to “Booze.” Claus, Jr: Whatever he does, Carl has the Daniel “Boone” spirit of pioneering (so, sooner than the “Avery’’ge fellow he will fall in love and get married). There is no doubt that Carl will be president of the United States. Twenty-five cents, please. Clara Crane After “Cootie” has laughed her way through P. H. S., she will “Andy” along with “Allie,” solely (Czoly) intent on getting to Manasquan, where she will spy “Bill” and grow “Pinker” (son) every second as he approaches. “Andy” Czoly After completing a Vitaphone contract with Al Jolson, “Andy” will appear on Broadway with a “Vivacious “Vail’’ed lady. Their act will be entitled “Short Yell for the Team.” Harold Dayton Harold’s first wife will be a “Cook.” After a spat about how to fix eggs, he will “Sue” her for a divorce. Then “A-very” pretty girl will happen along, but just then Uncle Sam will declare war and Harold will have to “Gert” his armour and beat it. Lillian Dubrowsky Some “Tom” (time) when Lillian has gotten her “Phil” of boys, she will “Chase’’ all the “Looie’” ones away and then resolve to be a man-hater for awhile. Thatcher Dunn “Mary Low”’—Mary Lou, Cross my heart, I love you!’ Can’t you hear “Thatch” going down Main Street in Scotch Plains with his hands in his “Pense” pockets and telling the whole world to go to “Helen” burn up.) Helen Fox On the way to a “Kane” rush at Princeton, a “Boldt” will fall out of “Foxie’s”’ car. Though she’s as mad as hops, she'll be a little “Ray” of sunshine, especially when a handsome young man who knows the “Art” of fixing “Boldts” chances her way. Doris Hoffman Doris will travel in Europe and in Italy will stop at the Vatican where the “Pope” is. Just so she doesn’t “Jimmy” the lock to get in, we will guarantee a good time for her. Mildred Hafner “Babe,” dressed in a red slicker and rakish sou’ “Wester”, will jealously “Guard” her boy friends of Bound Brook and Westfield during the storm of the Class Day Dance. Dot Hedberg Dot’s passion is music. She’s wild about “Trump(y)ets” and “Tripple- horns.” If she had more “Jack” she’d join the Metropolitan Opera Com- pany—abandoning her long lost ambition to become a little “‘Jim’’ teacher. Bob Keenan Now that you are out of P. H. S., my boy, take your “Staff” and climb all the mountains and “Ford” all the rivers til at the top of the highest mountains you will find “Ruth.” Dorothy Kenyon Dot doesn’t under“Stan” why ‘““Male Kom” (Malcolm) fled to England. She thinks he should come “Beck” to defend his cause. However, “Male Kom” saw “Ked” so he played safety first and kept his distance. Elizabeth Lufborrow After writing merely a “Taylor” two, Betty’s head and bust will be placed in the Hall of Fame. Then she will emigrate to Maryland where, in a hermit’s hut in the woods, she will spend her life translating Pilgrim’s Progress into kitchen union. Selma Lippit Selma, whose favorite book at present is “Honest Abe,” is going to “Charles’- ton to see the annual “Jim” pageant. David Lloyd Dave (Capt. Bluntschli) will be a howling success in the business, political and social world. His biggest success, however, will be a book on three trees —an “Elm-a,”’ chestnut, and a birch. Loizeaux Ann will start her career painting circus signs on barns and fences. Then she'll “C. D.(e) Wills” of her grandfather and uncle and she'll go to “Mac- Kenzie’s” Art School, where she will specialize in portraits of Andrew Jackson: Mary Meyrowitz Mary will live in St. “Paul” so that she can get “Moe” experience selling “Junk.” Jim Moravec When Jim is keeping house and his wife sends him down town to “bring home the bacon—” he will also invest in a “Bissell” carpet sweeper, because, he knows he won’t have any trouble with that kind. Maxwell Morse Max is going to be a banker and he will probably have no “Mercy” about foreclosing the mortgages on all the homesteads that any country “Poors’’ are foolish enough to mortgage to him. e) Gordon Nelson When Gordon goes to the University of Penn., he will meet a teacher by the name of Miss “De Reamer” who will persuade him to play a “Clara”net in the Whitewater Glee Club. Leo Owens Leo will go to the “Farland” of Africa, and hunt “Lyons” and lizards. After five years he will die from the bite of a tsetse fly, but don’t cry, Leo, we will have you cremated and put your ashes in the library. Betty Potts Betty will open an “Art” Studio near Lafayette Tech., and, to be perfectly “Frank,” she’ll be obliged to carry a line of “Huyler’s” chocolates to please the boys who “Bob” in and out so often. Lester Reed Lester will probably team up with Clarence Darrow and become a famous lawyer. If this fails, he will have to become a minister so he can read the “Saums,” and if his congregation fires him in a “Rues’’less fashion, he will either go South to “Carolyna” or else out West to the “White’’ open spaces. “Tommie” Saums “Tommie” will probably “Roome’” around for some time eating, provided she has enough “Jack,” her favorite, Oh, “Henry !” Bob Smith Station FRAN now introduces Bob Smith and his famous jazz orchestra. The first number on the program will be “The Carpenter and the Smith.” William Schuldenfrei In 1931 Bill will graduate from Dartmouth with honors. He will make a name for himself by writing a love story, entitled “Frances,” and, spurred on by his success he will write another with the name of ‘‘Jeannette.”’ Ruth Tallamy “Anerying” her living, Ruth will go to “George” for ideas. Ruth, by the way, leads the West Point breathing in gym class. Millicent Telfer Millicent will be our Congresswoman and enter a “Bill” for the prevention of cruelty to snakes. She will then rise to debate lest her (Lester) ‘‘Bill” be read amiss. Jack Truempy When “Truempy” gets a little taller, he will go in the movies as a double for Harold Lloyd. His “Hedberg” will be Hollywood.

With but six letter men to work with, Coach “Hub” Stine whipped into shape one of the most aggres- sive combinations that has represented Plainfield in this sport. Nine men who received their letters are graduating, but with promising material from the undefeated Reserve team and a large squad remaining, prospects are bright for another good season. Here is the record: Plainfield... 3 N. Brunswick 6 Plainfield .... 6 Summit Plainfield... 19 Montclair Piarnfields..., 190) Ne Pe Ele Ser) Plainheld 27, “Prenton Plainfield... 3 Phillipsburg .. O Plainfield .... 20 Westfield Plainfield... 15 East Orange... 6 Plainfield .... 112 Opponents ...... 36 LEO OWENS Quarter BOB SMITH Guard JACK EDWARDS Tackle Plainfield opened the season by losing to New Brunswick, later State Champions, by the close score of 6-3. Playing under the handi- cap of a green backfield and warm weather, Plainfield seemed to have the thing well in hand by virtue of Balogh’s field goal in the third quar- ter, but Plainfield’s defense wavered for a moment and an enemy touch- down resulted. Full of fight, and anxious to redeem themselves, the team crush- ed Montclair the next week. With the backfield players a little surer of themselves and a forward line working like a machine, Plainfield could not be stopped. The next Saturday, the team journeyed to Trenton, where it pro- ceeded to run ragged over the boys of the State capital. Perhaps in no other game was there shown such co-ordination in the work of the team. The line opened up holes, the backs gave splendid interference, and the man with the ball fought stubbornly to the last. It was es- sentially a rushing game, only one forward being completed. Westfield was the next victim on Plainfield’s list. The Red and Blue team ran and passed itself to a 20-0 victory over its traditional rivals. The forward pass proved it- self especially effective in this game. Norm Townley received a pass and tan twenty yards for a touchdown in the second quarter, and Owens scored twice. Penalties marred what would otherwise have been a splen- did game. Plainfield entered the next game badly crippled, but, fighting with a desperation that allowed no retreat, P. H. S. emerged the victor by a lone touchdown. In the first half the two teams battled to a scoreless tie, but in the third quarter Plainfield’s offense came to life and pushed over a touchdown. It was a game fight that showed better than anything the true calibre of the team. 94 BILL GEORGE Tackle DAN LOIZEAUX Guard NORM TOWNLEY End ARP BALOGH Half-Back The next was a typical Plain- field-North Plainfield game. There were thrills and excitement aplenty, and when the last whistle had blown it was found that Plainfield led 19- 10. The first half showed the team in real action. Plunges and runs and forwards put two touchdowns over. The second half North Plain- field held and in turn scored a touch- down and field goal due to a poor kick by Plainfield. Viviano scored once in this half, however. Fumbles were largely responsible for Plain- field’s failure to make much head- way. At Phillipsburg a stubborn bat- tle was fought for four quarters of the game. First one, then the other would have the advantage, neither quite able to pierce the other’s re- markable defense. Then came the moment. Phillipsburg with the ball deep in her own territory fumbled, and Kline recovered for Plainfield. With only a few minutes to play, Owens called for a drop kick, and Arp Balogh, who had failed twice befordé, came through and set the hall neatly between the bars for the Red and Blue’s sixth consecutive win. The next week at East Orange, Plainfield triumphed for the first time since the two schools have played each other. Although play- ing in a sea of mud, Plainfield’s at- tack was not to be met with. Captain Moravec and Viviano smashed their way to two touchdowns, and Arp Balogh kicked a field goal. It was a game in which every wearer of the Red and Blue gave his best in the last struggle of the schedule, a stirring climax to a stirring season. CAROLI Quarter HAROLD DAYTON Full-Back AMBUB 1G; IRIE ID) TEVA In looking back over the record compiled by Plainfield, one can readily appre- ciate the true strength of the team that has brought so much prestige to Plainfield High in athletics. Plainfield’s feat of holding New Brunswick, which it developed later, was our only obstacle in the way of a State Championship, was all the more remarkable in that a practically green team was playing their first game together. Not content with resting on our laurels, however, Coach Stine, to whom enough credit can not be given for the work he accomplished, has compiled a schedule even more difficult than the past. Bart Viviano has been elected captain by a unani- mous vote of the team and we have the greatest confidence that he will lead an- other successful team. BASKE RBA) 227 Handicapped by lack of experienced men, Plainfield went through a rather disastrous season, winning but four of the scheduled games. However, the team’s fight toward the end of the season — especially in the North Plainfield series — was most encouraging, and the outlook is bright for a successful season next year. The record made is as follows: Plainfield’ 232 landent a... 26 Pikinield:...)2o lilisiden.. se. Ze Plainfield .... 43 Somerville .... 31 Plainfield... 17 Westfleld ......

All the meets were with hard teams, and it is to their credit that the members of the team have performed so creditably. The relay team, composed of Ayer, Balogh, Hopkins and Viviano, placed in the State meet at Trenton. Their work was splendid throughout the whole season.

The first game afforded Plainfield rooters an opportunity to size up the team, and the general opinion was that the material was good, although experience was lacking. ‘Asbury Park visited us a day or so later and were sent homeward defeated in a very tight game 2-1. The fielding was excellent on both sides, a factor which made further scoring almost impossible. 99 In the next few games, Plainfield took a decided slump. All teams experience one, and it happened to visit us rather early. Nutley and East Orange contests were dropped by the scores of 2-6; 2-8. The team apparently could not find itself and Montclair next took our number in a heart-breaking battle 3-0. Then before the damage was ended, New Brunswick avenged itself for the close score in football and trimmed us 9-2. In the next game with Townley on the mound, P. H. S. once more came to life and decided to play with their old-time zip. They slugged out a 19-5 victory with Rahway the victim, Orange was the next to fall, under the impact of the bats of the Red and Blue. Held in check the first few innings, Plainfield soon “got” to the Orange pitcher and piled up a commanding lead. The final score was 11-7. Trenton invaded Plainfield in the next tilt, only to go the way of the rest. The game was the closest of the year and was won only after hard battling by both sides. Westfield proceeded to put the brakes on us however, and in a loosely-played game we emerged the loser of a 17-9 score. Nothing daunted, Plainfield proceeded to take Hackensack into camp in a battle that was a thriller from the first to last minute. Plainfield scored early and held a lead that was not tied until the seventh. From then till the twelfth inning, the fans were in a state of nervous suspense until Leo Owens brought Paulie Greenwood home with a safe hit. Both Thompson and Townley pitched great ball. In the first game of the series with our friendly enemies from across the brook, Norm Townley twirled Plainfield to a 6-5 victory that was characteristic of a Plainfield-North Plainfield battle-field of fight until the last man was out. A week later, Plainfield showed beyond a shadow of doubt that she was the better team. N. P. H. S. was trounced this time 14-8, in a game full of mis- plays, mostly however on the side of North Pl ainfield. North Plainfield gained an early lead that did not, however, last very long. Townley pitched again. His work was brilliant all season. He had an average of a dozen strike-outs to his credit every game and was no mean wielder of the bat. Thompson also should show up as a bright, heady twirler who will be relied upon next year. TENNIS: OF 227 This year’s tennis team, although composed of the smallest players that have represented the school for many years, has had a fairly successful season. It started off with flying colors by defeating New Brunswick by the score of 5to 1. The team was unable to keep up the good work, however, and lost the next two matches with Westfield and Montclair. The spirits of the players were somewhat revived in the following game when the Plainfielders defeated Ward- law, but the team was again set back by the crushing defeat dealt them by Battin. Since none of this year’s players will graduate in June, Plainfield High will probably have a more experienced team next year. 101 GEREN Ko 27: If one considers the actual record made by the track team this season, it cannot really be called successful, but in other ways it was. The main trouble was lack of weight men. The track events had a number of capable men. Captain Arp Balogh was the outstanding star of every meet and compiled an individual score of 76 points for the season. The lightweights were exceptionally good, the relay team playing in the County meet and getting second in the Rotary. Arp Balogh broke a State scholastic record by running the 120 yard low hurdles in 15 seconds. The following have received Varsity letters: Balogh—100 yard dash, pole vault, broad jump, shot put; Burgard—100 yard dash, 220 yard dash, quarter mile; Smith—mile and half-mile; Gerdson—high jump; Keenan—220 yard dash, 75 yard dash; Burns—running broad jump, shot put, 100 yard dash; Mogey—pole vault ; Jenson—mile run. 102 HOCKEY TEAM 727 SOPHOMORE TENNIS TEAM In this sport the Seniors came out with a well-earned victory. The first bright spot appeared in our athletic history and created an incentive for the suc- ceeding teams. Cornelia Suydam, Virginia Voorhis and Margaret Blair won their numerals for the victory which they deserved. LUINIORS TRACK TEAM In our next year we climbed a little higher. By hard work and effort the Seniors won first place in track, under the leadership of Frances Hailer. Track was newly introduced to the Senior girls, but those who received their numerals were well worthy of the reward. JUNIOR BASKETBALL TEAM The basketball team kept up the winning streak, and defeated all its rivals. Margaret Blair was a dandy player, and her spirit and good cheer urged the team on to victory. There were close scores and sturdy girls who found it difficult, but at the same time a good deal of fun to stay within their own respective lines. TENNIS TEAM (27 SENIORS TENNIS Ss hea Our last year of athletics brought us many honors. The Senior tennis team captured all laurels in this sport. Under the direction of Evelyn Sutphen, captain, the girls played with all their strength and pep. It took several weeks to convince the school of the team’s ability, and the final matches awarded the rightful victory to the Seniors. SENIOR SHOCKEY rea vi These games were played in the bitter weather of November, with fine spirit and plenty of healthful exercise. The season for hockey finally ended in a tie with the Juniors. The hockey sticks cracked and the ball went around in circles, and still the score stood still. The captain of the team, Lorraine Bradshaw, was on hand to beat all the teams, but the Seniors found their equal in the determined Juniors. SENIOR BASKETBALL TEAM The greatest success of all the years was the game with the Faculty. How the teachers puffed and labored to keep up with the never-tiring Senior girls! Once the girls’ score began to soar, there was no limit. Although the Faculty called for time—several times, they never regained their skill, and the Seniors pushed on and came out ’way over the top. The Senior girls who have received P. H. S. numerals for double honors in sports are Ruth Tallamy, Ann Loizeaux, Evelyn Sutphen, Cornelia De Reamer, Margaret Burkey, Dare Coale, Gwendolyn Cochran, Clara Crane, Helen Fox and Margaret Blair. 104 aI IgG 106 — | O Pri teos re ° wie Xe e I RPAC SY ig QR IY SIF .
