Vis: SWE a , YH : ‘ € ‘ % ROE oaths cf PLAINFIELD NE Wig) ROBY, FOREWORD — In compiling this book, we, the staff of the 1940 Milestone, have tried to portray something of the spirit and character of P.H.S. as seen through the eyes of its departing seniors. Progress has been our ideal in acquiring a high school education. Thus, we have tried to make this a progressive pub- lication of a truly progressive institution. We shall feel that our efforts have been justified if, in the future, this yearbook can recall to our memories the happiest days of our lives—our school days. The staff extends its deepest thanks to Mr. C. K. Bomberger, general adviser, and to Mr. G. R. Strub, business adviser, for their assistance in publishing this book. Our appreciation is also extended to Miss Kathryn Patton, Mr. K. M. Ball, and to Mr. Henry H. Banta for their helpful advice. THE EDITORS. DEDICATION TO GEORGE A. SMITH: —for his untiring efforts on behalf of Plainfield High School during the past six years as a member of the faculty; —tfor his unlimited friendship and inspiration to all who have known him; —for the sincerity of his interest, the readiness of his understanding, and the inspiration of his ideals— In appreciation and grateful recognition, the 1940 MILESTONE is respectfully dedicated.

The council consists of the four class officers and one elected representative from each home room. The council has rapidly, efficiently, and successfully carried on the busi- ness of the class this year. Members, besides the class officers, include: Gerry Aitken, Courtland Davis, Jr., Virginia Hart, Frances Kling, Lucille Mer- curo, Bruce Wimer, Bill Ricketts, Frank Daly, Marion McDonough, and Charles Proctor. 12 ClieSe Ob 1940 Secretary DOROTHY CARTWRIGHT Treasurer CLARA STANFIELD CLASS OF 40 -- SENIOR YEAR IN REVIEW With the ringing of the 8:30 bell September 6, the class of 1940 entered upon its senior year with mingled feelings of joy and determination—glad to be back with friends and resolved to make this, the last year, the best ever. Its first task was to offset the shortage in last year’s funds. Thus chai- lenged, the class put its shoulder to the wheel and was able to compensate fully the loss by selling Christmas cards. Adelaide Stiglitz walked off with first prize honors by selling 22 boxes. Their financial obligation fulfilled, the class turned its thoughts to a lighter vein, when the class celebrated its annual banquet, March 21, with Lou Gid- ding and Kay Finn as co-chairmen, and Marjorie Stryker as chief decorator. On March 16, Patricia Martin and John Curran headed the cast in the rollicking comedy of high school adventure, “What a Life!” The play was a tremendous success, being repeated two weeks later for the benefit of charity. The final Milestone deadline, May 3, drew attention to the fact that high school days would soon be over. After a truly successful senior prom, managed by Roger Evans, on the evening of June 7, the class of ‘40 prepared for the grand finale of its P.H.S. career—commencement, June 20. [13] DOROTHY L.

Full of awe and humility, we struggled to find the elevator, the cafeteria, room 440, and to reach the correct gym. Entering as freshmen with us were Miss Josephine Miller, Mr. A. E. Smith, Miss E. Hageman, and Mr. A. M. Potts. The year began immediately with the election of class officers: Bruce Wimer, president; Alice Adams, vice-president; and Joseph Juliano, treasurer. The big project for our class was the presentation of the movie, “Jane Eyre,” in collaboration with the sophomore class, which production netted us $35. Among the many school events taking place were: the opening of the new annex building for auto and print shops, the auditioning and later, approval of the swing band, and the student council’s presentation of the eight reel movie “The Human Adventure.” In the line of sports, great things were taking place! The freshman girls, under the captaincy of Barbara Bedell, came to the top in the girls’ interclass archery tournament; and the Cardinal court squad annexed the city cham- pionship. The Card mermen splashed through with a record of nine out of thirteen wins. Thus ended the freshman year. Sophomore Year: We had passed the first milestone; no longer were we “‘lit- tle frosh.”” For officers, we had re-elected Bruce Wimer as president, and other officials were Emil Poklitar, vice-president; Reid Teschner, trea surer; and Dorothy Cartwright, secretary. The movie, “So Red the Rose,” starring Mar- garet Sullavan and Randy Scott, was presented by the freshman and sopho- more classes, and was our only big undertaking. Meanwhile the school as a whole had arranged two exceptional evening concerts: the one, an organ recital by Fernando Germani, Italy’s leading organist; the other, the Columbia University Symphonic Band's appearance for the benefit of the band uniform fund. In sports, we stood our ground. P.H.S. retained the city crown in basket- ball, and the Card hockey team ended its season with four wins, three losses, and one tie. Many sophom ores were at this time participating in several outstanding activities. Marion Porter and Edward Zega were hard at work helping to compile the new handbook, while Elaine Coxhead was the only sophomore competing in the declamation contest. We had prepared ourselves for the two great years. Junior Year: As juniors we felt endowed with rights, dignity, and spirit. Our officers were: Louis Gidding, president; Sally Hand, vice-president; Clara . Stanfield, treasurer, and Dorothy Cartwright, secretary. School opened with a new library and three new classrooms: 100, 110, 120; and out on the football field, twirlers and the band sported chic new uniforms in navy and red! A magnificent masque, staged by many departments of the school in co-operation with the drama department, took place in January. The cast of “Invisible Controls’’ included Louis Gidding as Zeus, Jeanne Goodwin as Eros, Rita Jacobs as Pan, and Courtland Davis as Pluto. The Card swimming team turned in a wonderful record, having won eight out of eleven contests! Juniors received new honors in February as the Entree appointed Ruth Boehler as editor-in-chief. Also at this time, Gloria Burrell became managing editor; Jean Clark, news editor; and Bill Myers, sports editor. [54] Being the junior class, we had many important plans to complete. First, the annual junior entertainment. ‘“Babbitt’s Boy,” ‘What Price Gaiety?” and Pirates’ Revenge’ were chosen as the plays. The staging of these plays brought us the unusual profit of $180. The class of ‘40 scored a bull’s-eye in the origination of the junior ban- quet. Kay Finn and Bill Ricketts were co-chairmen of the affair which in- cluded eats, games, and dancing. May 29 followed soon afterward, and the junior prom, under the chairmanship of Bryce Durant, took place in the “park” (the P.H.S. gym). It seemed no time at all until the Merrymen were playing “Lights Out’’ for the Prom and our junior year, too. The pleasures of the summer vacation were interrupted by the sudden news of the death of our friend and teacher, Mr. Patch. After years of inspir- ation of the school, Mr. Patch passed from this world in August, 1939. Those who knew him will clways remember Mr. Patch for his kindness and under- standing. Senior Year: The long-awaited year finally arrived! Our officers were Bill Zieman, president; Mary Frances Dawley, vice-president; Clara Stanfield, treasurer; and Dorothy Cartwright, secretary. Early this year Mr. G. A. Smith was appointed dean of boys, and Miss Helen M. Bond, head of the history department. Albert Pearson succeeded in reaching the presidency of the student coun- cil, while Ed Zega became vice-president; Gloria Simon, secretary; and David O'Driscoll, treasurer. Student co-operative tickets were sold for the first time and were purchased by eighty per cent of the student body. Two outstand- ing special assembly programs presented were the Franklin Institute chem- istry show and the Bucknell University Men’s Glee Club. A colossal produc- tion, The Follies of '40,” ran three nights and called a big crowd each time. Several outstanding sports awards were copped by seniors, Tom Fosbre winning the cross-country race between the halves of the Cardinal-Princeton game, Teddy Madjeski receiving the tennis crown, and Charles Proctor the school ping-pong championship. April 23 marked a student government day, revived after an eight-year lapse. Bill Rothfuss, a junior, was elected mayor; Bill Carson, judge; and senior councilmen included Gerry Aitken, Robert Fioravanti, Frances Kling, David O'Driscoll, Edward Zega, Bruce Wimer, Florence Schaefer, Charles Proctor, and Bob Minnick. - Other senior activities were numerous and very successful. In November, the class sold Christmas cards and came out $90 to the good, making us the wealthiest class in some years. A second class banquet, headed by Kay Finn and Louis Gidding proved even more successiul than the first. ‘What a Lifel’’ chosen as class play, was a rip-roaring success and netted us more than $250. Leads were taken by John Curran as Henry Aldrich and Patricia Martin as Barbara Pearson. June brought the humorous Senior Day and Class Day, both headed by Louis Gidding. Later came the Senior Prom. Suddenly— the climax—graduation! A glorious four years of activity had reached their end. ee [55] NON ittiest witttiest o ; : S.

WILL AND TESTAMENF of the Class of 1940 WHEREAS it has been the custom of the human race, that, when their labors on this old earth are finished, they adorn themselves with gossamer wings (most of ‘em) and ascend to the gates of heaven (some of ‘em); and Whereas we, the aching, creaky, tired martyrs of the class of 1940, being human civilized people (our idea of ourselves), and not being off the beam and slightly cracked (the faculty's idea of ourselves), realize that our days to live in old P.H.S. are short and numbered, We do hereby set down our last will and testament and entrust it to the frosh, sophs, juniors, faculty, janitors, and to those worthy people who may be concerned, as follows, to wit: 1. To the juniors who become seniors: (1) The right to write your own notes when you have been absent for a day or two. (We of 1940 have found this practice extremely useful in several instances.) (2) The right of looking down disdainfully upon the rest of the school. (3) The right to give your class ring to your best girl (and the trouble of trying to get it back in the future). (4) The right to have the best seats in assembly. (5) The ordeal of getting, and elation in having, a driver's license. 2. Sophomores: We do bequeath thee: (1) The thrill of wearing your first class ring. (2) The right to get excited over big name bands and to keep time to Glenn Miller's band at the Meadowbrook. (3) The thrill of being in a big-time theatrical production (your Junior Play). (4) A book on ways and means of cutting. (Just consult Miss Moore's files.) 3. Freshmen: (1) First dates and consequences. (2) A new sense of dig- nity and formality towards the incoming freshmen. (3) The right to wear overalls to school. (4) First chance to go to a Hi-Tri dance. 4. Incoming Freshmen: (1) The thrill you get when you sing the alma mater for the first time. (2) First note to ‘‘see Miss Moore at oncel” (3) Library fines. (4) To Frosh boys, the right to wear long pants instead of knickers. 5. Faculty: (1) To Miss Whelan and Miss Moore: Lie detectors (although we doubt whether there is much need for tnem). (2) To Mr. Kistler: Two or even one good chemist. (3) To Mr. Daum: A hand-sized version of the Con- stitution. (4) To Miss Bond: Gold inlaid box to collect all gum fines. 6. To The Entree: The exclusive use of dirt swept up by the janitors for the gossip column. 7. To future Milestone staffs: Bromo seltzer, aspirin, and other helpful drugs to ease over the last week rush hours. And we, being theoretically of sound mind, upon formation of this d ocument, do hereby set our hands and seal on this day of June 20, 1940. (Signed) KLESSUV NINDEENFORDIE Witnesses: J.

BUCKELEW HENRY H. BANTA [60] Underclasses CInSs (Ole tS 4ih The record of this year’s junior class, while not unbelievably outstanding, was not exactly dull. John Lounsbury as president, Bi!l Rothfuss as vice-president, and Dotty Rothberg as secretary and treasurer, fulfilled their office pledges in an effic- ient manner. As for the junior plays—why, there were even rumors of Daryll F. Zanuck coming to claim some of 1941's talent! In “Above All,” a one-act tragedy which ended happily despite all de- spair, Bruce Kriney, Martha Grace El- CLASS hs, June Matthewson, Carolyn Rosen- krans, and Doris Mirkin played the leads. “Dinner for Two,” a one-act com- edy, offered valuable instruction in the love-making game. The able instruc- tors were Bill Rothfuss, Patty Binga- man, Wayne La Poe, Betty Wales, and Aleida Stomps. Then the history department an- nounced that P.H.S. students would take over the city of Plainfield, and have student government for one day! Rothtfuss, Class vice-president, Bill OF 1941 gained fresh laurels by being elected mayor. Joan de Revere was elected tax-collector, and Phil Weisbecker, city treasurer. Councilmen from the class of ‘41 were Tom Quarles and Jeanne Bannister, and the Board of Education numbered Jean McGlone, Peggy Smith, and Marjorie Webb among its mem- bers. Of course, there was the Junior Prom. Talk about a swell formal! It was held May 10 in the boys’ gym and stood out as a night “tops” in the history of this year’s juniors. Ably led by Louis Russo, president; Marie Coletta, vice-president; Edna Wainwright, secretary; and Mary Alice McGee, treasurer, the sophomore class has made a real name for itself during the past year. Their main activity was a roller-skating party, held in the Plainfield Amusement Academy on March 30, which was a huge success financially as well as socially. Over three hundred attended, and the class netted more than fifty-eight dollars. The sophomore executive council, an im- portant function of the class, determined the program for the year. One member was elected from each sophomore home room. Members for 1939-1940 included: Audrey Brown, William Hackler, Charles Bronston, Tom Corcoran, William Cuniff, Elinor Flagg, James Hallock, Virginia Hartman, Dorothy Klenck, Dorothy Loeber, Marion Neagle, John Reinman, George Shumlin, Bob Lang, and James Turner. The sophomores were active in other school activities as well, being represented by seven of the eleven second semester En- tree editors; a growing percentage among band, orchestra, and patrol members; and several promising stars-to-be in the sports line. CEASS OF 1943 condescending upperclass advice on eleva- tors, traffic regulations, and other devices of “complex” civilization. They regained their courage long enough to choose as their president, Janet Hand; vice-president, Kelvin Fitzpatrick; secretary, Doris Gunderson; treasurer, Ruth Gladden. P. S—Very wise choices they proved to be, their classmates willingly assert. Just bubbling over with youthful enthusi- asm, they entered into school activities with as much gusto as any junior or senior. One student council member from each freshman home room aided in the government of dear old P.H.S., and; not to be left behind in any- thing, the frosh played a large part in the sports program, as well as providing mem- bers for our renowned band and orchestra. With such an auspicious beginning, one September, 1939, ushered into P.H.S. more may expect some terrific things to happen than 500 slightly bewildered freshmen, who under their ministration by the time they are managed to put up a brave front despite , seniors. WAU {691} SIT por ioeee wie S TEE Ss Te See ae RA | thletics FOOTBALL The Cardinal football team, under the supervision of Coaches Wilbur Brann, Jack Liddy, and Evert Pearcy, finished the 1939 season with a record of;one game won, six lost, and one tied. The squad was one of the lightest in’years and did not have the power in reserves to stand up before such pow- erful opponents as Columbia and East Orange. Although the team showed a willingness to work, injuries to such key men as Siegrist, Owens, Alston, Yannotta, Camarda, and Grzenski, slowed the team down considerably. The highlight of a mediocre season was the North Plainfield game, in which a spirited Red and Blue eleven gained a hard-earned 6-0 victory over their arch rivals. The Cards went down to defeat before the elevens of Columbia, East Orange, Morristown, Princeton, Westfield, and Bound Brook, while they played a tie with West Orange. Next year the team will feel greatly the loss of such outstanding seniors as Douglas Day, Walter Brad- shaw, Orestes Cembrola, William McKnight, James Siegrist, Walter Grzenski, Frank Daly, Bill Zieman, and Frank Camarda. Absent from the picture were Walter Bradshaw and Ray Hoffman. {681} CROSS-COUNTRY This year, for the first time in the history of P.H.S., a cross-country team represented the Red and Blue on the field of competition. The team, under the direction of Coach Bruguiere, ended the season with an outstanding first year record of three wins against one loss. The Cards won their meets against Cranford, Rahway, and Weequahic, and suffered their only defeat at the hands of Regional. In the state meet Walt McGinley took eleventh place and Ed Daly sixteenth. Only senior on the squad is Thomas Fosbre. SOCCER Although the totals of games won and lost by the Cardinal soccer squad might indicate a rather dismal season, the team was quite strong when judged from the standpoint of playing ability; and a majority of the games were lost by a single count. The squad, coached by Harold Bruguiere, went down to defeat before the combines of Summit, Chatham, Long Branch, Thomas Jefferson, and Rutgers Freshmen, and was able to score a single victory during the season when it trounced Pingry, 5-0. Seniors on the squad include Barnes, Bohl, Britton, Crooks, French, Henshaw, Inciso, Kelly, Phillips, Prim, Palmer, Stringham, Swenson, Weinert, Wimer and Woodruff. [69] BASKETBALL The P.H.S. basketball team soared high above pre-season expectations when it ended the season with a record of thirteen wins against nine losses. The Cardinals finished fourth in the Union County Conference and reached the quarter finals of the Union County Tournament. During the season the team defeated such outstanding teams as Rah- way, Regional, Asbury Park, Cranford, and Hillside. Teddy Madjeski, Homer Ferguson, and Walter Grzenski were the Cardinal stalwarts in a season which was featured by Plainfield’s great victory over Linden in the Union County Tournament by the score of 34-31, after twice being defeated by the same team during the regular season. The Cards captured the city championship, when, after losing the first game to North Plainfield, 25-22, they came back to take the next two games by scores of 38-33 and 29-25 respectively. Next year, Coach Brann will have back such experienced men as Kane, Saunders, Randolph, Santy, and Schmidt. Seniors, whose loss for next season will be deeply felt, are: Teddy Madjeski, Homer Ferguson, Walter Grzenski, and Irving Bussel. [70] SWIMMING P.H.S. was again favored with an excellent swimming team. The squad, ably instructed by Coach Victor Liske, completed its season, winning eight ot its eleven meets. The Red and Blue natators overcame South Side, Westfield, Bloomfield, Verona, Pingry, Kearny, and Asbury Park, losing to Columbia, Montclair, and Westfield. Outstanding this year was the performance of Ernie Siegrist, who finished the season undefeated in fancy diving. Two records were broken during the course of the season. Tom Prim, after three times lowering his famous record in the breast stroke, finally shaved it down to the greatly reduced time of 1: 10.2. The medley relay of Tom Prim, Herb Davidson, and Jimmy Siegrist (picture below) swimming in record time, set a new mark of 1: 51.3 for the 180-yard distance. Those who swam their last dash for Plainfield, include: James Siegrist, Harold Smith, Thomas Prim, Herbert Krienke, Douglas Day, and Ralph Schranz. {71] HOCKEY The Cardinal Hockey squad under the supervision of Coach Jack Liddy ended a season of thrills and spills typical of the sport with a record of six games won, five lost, and one tied. A cold winter, highly favorable to the sport, enabled the squad to develop a better brand of hockey and to take on a heavier schedule than the average season affords. The Cards listed among their victims Rahway, Mt. Lakes, and Summit, while they went down to defeat before the able combines of Cranford, Peddie, Hun, Morristown, and Blair. A nip and tuck battle with Cranford ended in a 1-1 tie. Seniors on the squad in- cluded Palmer, Zega, Proctor, Pearson, Weinert, Camarda, and Bradshaw. BASEBALL In response to Coach Jack Liddy’s call for baseball candidates, one hundred boys turned out to try to win positions on the varsity, junior varsity, and freshman teams. This year's team saw the return of five lettermen as well as a number of last year’s junior varsity. Seniors on the squad were Teddy Madjeski, Norman Woodruff, Douglas East- lund, Albert Ryno, Walter Bradshaw, and Tony Ferranti. (723 OZ TRACK This season's track team, under Coaches Harold Bruguiere, Evert Pearcy, and George Smith attempted the difficult job of duplicating the outstanding record of the past two years, notably by aiming at the Union County championship. The nucleus of the squad materialized in the ability of five of last year’s lettermen, Fosbre, Daly, McGinley, Jetter, Ferguson, and Young. Indoor track meets during the winter months helped to put some of the boys in good shape and also uncovered some outstanding talent. In this group was Bill Jetter, who took first place in the high jump at the Union County Indoor Meet. The team this year faced Asbury Park, New Brunswick, Thomas Jefferson, Newark Academy, Princeton, Bloom- field, and Westfield. Seniors on the squad included Fosbre, Young, Jetter, Curran, Fer- guson, Zieman, McNight, Day, Siegrist, Garner, and Dunham. TENNIS Coach William Sette has chosen this year’s Cardinal tennis team mainly from the Senior class as the graduating class contributed a majority of the likely candidates. The team this spring matched its skill against Dunellen, Asbury Park, New Brunswick, West- field, Perth Amboy, Weequahic, North Plainfield, Red Bank, and Long Branch. Seniors on the squad included Joseph Dilibro,. Charles Proctor, Albert Pearson, Walter Grzenski, Robert.Britton, and Charles Goodwin. L733 [74] SENIOR GIRLS’ HOCKEY TEAM GIRLS’ HOCKEY.—After three years of failure to win the schoolfield hockey title, the girls of the class of 1940 took away top honors. This year’s senior girls have been especially active in hockey in every year in high school. Senior girls on the team were: captain, Mildred McLean, Gloria Simon, Ruth Brockley, Lucille Mercuro, Florence Schaefer, Julia Valentinuzzi, Rita Jacobs, Clara Groszmann, Mertie Vacanti, and Barbara Bedell. GIRLS’ ARCHERY.—Although the girls of the senior class failed to win first place in the archery competition, they provided a great deal of competition for the junior victors. In this sport, open to all girls, teams of four members were chosen by a selected captain from each class. These girls competed in intramural play for the class championship, and the winners received awards. SENIOR GIRLS’ ARCHERY SENIOR GIRLS’ BASKETBALL SENIOR GIRLS’ BADMINTON SENIOR GIRLS’ BADMINTON.—In proof of the growing popularity of badminton, a large number of junior and senior girls turned out for intramural playing. Since the sport is limited to the two upper school classes, the seniors had only the juniors to overcome, which they did with four victories against no defeats. Last winter, the team of the ‘40 class was eliminated only by the score of 3-2. GIRLS’ BASKETBALL.—Senior girls this year repeated their last winter’s success as they placed first in the interclass basketbail championships. Aided by great support and success, the team overcame all the representatives of the other classes. Members of the team are: captain, Mertie Vacanti, Rose Whittington, Julia Valentinuzzi, Ruth Brockley, Lucille Mercuro, Gloria Simon, Mildred McLean, Florence Schaefer, Barbara Bedell, Helen Marra, Ruth Otani, Jean Scribner, and Virginia Hart. GIRLS’ TENNIS.—Tennis is the only girls’ sport that is played both in spring and fall. Al- though lack of facilities limited the participation, the sport has proved highly popular. This year, the senior girls will attempt to repeat last year’s victory in the interclass championships. Judging from last year’s record, they have great possibilities. GIRLS’ BASEBALL—A large number of girls responded this year to the announcement oi the start of girls’ baseball. The girls commenced practice in May under the direction of Mrs. Gilbert. Each feminine nine met afternoons at the high school field to struggle for the top in intramural competition. SENIOR GIRLS’ TENNIS TEAM SENIOR GIRLS' BASEBALL TEAM 7 on Yj dda aden O.- «gan 13 ations STUDENT COUNCIL Motions, motions, and more motions. Yes, sir—after a hotly-contested race for council president, in which Albert Pearson emerged as undisputed victor, the student council took every problem in stride—outdoor traffic, fire drills, state conference, patrol badges, percentage clause in club charters, books on balcony railing, cafeteria music, prevention of carelessness, consti- tution revision, committee appointments, underclass election schedule, and future co-operative ticket results. The student co-operative ticket campaign was handled successfully and is assured a stable future. More than 1,400 tickets were sold this, the first, year of sale. With the proceeds, the council, among other things, presented several enjoyable programs, including Hans Helm, the noted imitator of musi- cal instruments; in the field of television, Lew Hoskins with his complex equip- ment; and finally Howard Cleaves, world famous photographer. Edward Zega competently fulfilled his position as vice-president of the council; Gloria Simon was secretary; David O'Driscoll, treasurer. Faculty advisers lola Moore and Henry Daum saved the council from many embar- rassing errors, while Bernice Loizeaux and John Kammerer carried on their responsibilities as chairmen of the club and information committees respec- tively. a [78] STUDENT PATROL “A word to the wise is sufficient.’ The student patrol of 1939-1940 en- deavored to back up that idea with action in securing and retaining an orderly and respectable cafeteria. The adoption of a four lunch period sched- ule improved conditions tremendously. Captains for first lunch were Mary Terrible and William Carson; second lunch, Jane Robertson and Walter Awe; third lunch, Shirley Gray and Walter Eddy; fourth lunch, Carolyn Schack and Walter Swenson. They were admir- ably assisted by the advisers, Dean Iola Moore and Henry Daum. This volunteer organization of 150 students who kept order in the cafe- teria and halls during lunch periods, had opportunity for directing traffic throughout the building, and thus performed a real service for the entire school. Homer Reeve acted as general representative of the patrol in the student council, and Gerard Aitken co-ordinated outdoor traffic surveys and recommendations with patrol responsibility. Consequently, patrol members had the occasion to take an important part in pupil participation in the gov- ernment of the school. [79] COLOR GUARD BAND Outstanding among the year’s achievements has been the continued progress of the P.H.S. Band, under the capable leadership of Mr. Clarence J. Andrews. This organization of more than 60 members marched and played at seven of the football games, attired in cocky uniforms of cardinal red and navy blue. Jack Cogger served his second year as drum major and skillfully drilled the strutting corps of nine twirlers. At the annual concert, March 7, the organization combined with the Frank- lin and Marshall College Band, directed by Professor John Peiffer, and the F. and M. Glee Club, among whom were several P.H.S. alumni, including Lyman Reger, clarinetist; Robert Wimer, French horn; and Harold Stryker, glee club soloist. After the concert the band and glee club boys, as well as the guests, enjoyed an evening of dancing to the rhythm of the Swing Band. The success of this project was due largely to the efforts of Mr. J. Wade Wimer and the P.-T. A. Band Uniform Committee. P.H.S. was well represented in the All-State Band, as Alfred Aitken, Gerard Aitken, Ralph Burdette, Richard Johnson, Eric Lassen, Harold Smol- ensky, and Robert Wood withstood stiff competition in the tryouts to make the band. Several selections were played at Town Hall meeting, May 2, including a twirling exhibition by drum major Jack Cogger. The season was completed by a joint concert May 9, with the All-City Band of Plainfield. TWIRL! ERS ORCHESTRA “Tune up and let that rhythm carry on!” And so our P.H.S. senior and junior orchestras score a new high musical achievement during 1939 and 40. You will remember them for their successful accompaniment in ‘Follies oi ‘40, “What a Lifel”, spring concert, junior class production, and various as- sembly programs. They are always on hand to give the best of their musical ability. The junior orchestra consists of thirty members, whereas the senior orches- tra boasts of forty-five in its membership. This means that a seventy-five piece orchestra of symphonic proportions and skill is ‘‘on call” at P.H.S. for every occasion. Mr. A. Dwight Brown was conductor, and Andre Pecquer, student concert master. Those who succeeded in gaining positions on the All-State Orchestra were: Courtland Davis, Dorothy Davis, and Harold Goldberg. SWING BAND “C'mon students, dance!” So the saying goes, as the Swing Band warms up on smooth arrangements of mellow music and solid jive. Mr. Clarence J. Andrews, music department head, was the actively in- spiring sponsor. Business managers were John Gruneisen, Arthur Gruneisen, and Irwin Knoble. Playing membe rs were: Eddie Martin, Harold Smolensky, Donald Van Dusen, and Howard Carter, woodwinds; Jimmy Martin, Joseph Valentino, James O'Brien, Frank Miner, and Robert Wood, brass; and the rhythm section, Will Jetter, Granville Gates, Sabino Carone, Paul Van Pelt, and Herbert Kenter.

With that out of the way, what about the P.H.S. version? To increase their knowledge of Music interpre- tation, the seventy choir members met each week in two divisions, beginning and advanced, both under the direction of Mrs. Mildred R. Searles. The high spot of this year’s program was the joint spring concert April 11, with the PHS. Glee Club and orchestra; and, as guests, the Boys’ Glee Club of the Thomas Jefferson High School, Eliza- beth. A cappella soloists included: Sara Hill, Alice Mae Lewand, Sophie Soska, and Margery Stryker. Several program selections were “Minka,” a Rus- sian folk song; “The Nightingale,” by Tschaikow- sky; “April,” by Gounod; and “The Italian Street Song,” by Victor Herbert. The choir also performed before the Christmas assemblies, and gave an off-stage accompaniment to “Le Papillon” in the spring assembly program, May 9 and 10. OT CHEERLEADERS Remember: ‘“Come-a—vivo, come-a-vivo—skit, scat! rah, rah, rahl—Set them back! Who can put old Plainfield down? Nobody, nobody—not our town!” ... That was the theme song of these razzle-dazzie cheerleaders who gave every game that extra zip which inspired the parade, bonfire, and the final triumph over the boys from across the brook. Truckin’ on down the past season were: Alice Adams, Betty Campbell, Rita Jacobs, Claire Nichols, Lois O'Neill, Dorothy Rothberg, Carolyn crans, Jane Shumsky, Rodman Cornell, Bryce Du- rant, Roger Robert Henshaw, Bill Moore, Irving Perlmutter, Ira Richards, Bob Stringham, and Roger Whitford, with Martha Johnson as captain and Mrs. Ruth B. Gilbert as adviser. Rosen- Evans, PEP CLUB School spirit! That is the driving force behind the Pep Club, and once they start something the rest of the school is “in the mood” almost before it can catch a breath, as was the case with the all- star fashion show. The club boosted the co-operative ticket plan by providing for reductions on several of the “away” games and on the swing band dance after the football game with the Canucks. The club further engraved its name in the annals of P.HS. history by the purchase of a new trophy case for the front corridor. Mrs. Eleanor Henderson sponsor for the club. Officers Barbara Bedell; vice-president, Dorothy Cartwright; secretary, Mary treasurer, Charles was were: president, Anne Hardiman; Ellingwood. [83] DRAMATIC SOCIETY This year at P.H.S. the dramatic society set a new high in thespian art, giving the extravaganza ‘‘Follies of ‘40,’ under the direction of Miss Ruth Le Fevre, head of the drama department. The ‘Follies of ‘40° was a variety show, its plot revolving around the “visiting Hollywood talent scout, Alexander De Mille,” personified by Court- land Davis, Jr., on a supposed search for amateur theatrical material. Mr. De Mille was conducted on a tour through the high school corridors where demonstrations of music, dancing, and light drama had been arranged for his benefit. The scene opened in the dean's office where three boys were led to be reprimanded. When Mr. De Mille arrived on the scene, pseudo-faculty members conducted him to a skating exhibition, a talking dummy combina- tion of ‘Uncle Pete’ and “Percy,’”’ an Indian sunrise dance, a well-executed cakewalk, and the “‘coy”’ antics of the boys’ ballet—seventeen fascinating acts in all! The senior play, ‘What a Life!” delighted a large and appreciative audi- ence, and was given a second time by popular demand. The junior class displayed its perseverance, as well as its ability to learn, by presenting two one-act plays, ‘Dinner for Two” and “Above All.” P.H.S. was well represented in fields of dramatic competition. Courtland Davis, Jr., representing the school in the annual oratorical contest sponsored by the American Legion, placed third in the county elimination. In April special praise went to Henry Parker, winner of the New Jersey Poetry Reading contest, sponsored by Newark University. Major participants in the P.H.S. declamation contest were: Marion Neagle, Patricia Martin, Aleida Stomps, June Mathewson, Betty Wales, John Curran, Irving Perlmutter, Her- bert Raab, and Russell Carpenter, any one of whom was worthy of being proclaimed winner. [84] STAGE, ELECTRICAL, AND PROJECTION SQUADS Lights! Curtains! Dim those floods! Clear the stage! Familiar sounds to the ears of the stage, electrical, and projection squads. They really came into their own limelight this year, sporting those nifty “official’’ badges and organizing solidly behind Miss Ruth Le Fevre, adviser of the stage and electrical squads; and Mr. Caryl Dunavan, adviser of the projection club. Operating motion picture machines and floodlights at any time of the day or night was among their duties. Robert Minnick served as chairman of the stage crew, while Alfred Posberg and Peter Preuss were co-chiefs of the electrical squad. Officers of the projection club included: Louis Etlinger, president; George Fuller, vice-president; Harold Goldberg, secretary; and James Dunn, treasurer. USHERS A major contribution to the success of P.H.S. as- sembly programs during and after school was the courteous, efficient service of Miss Gertrude Moodey’s corps of 22 ushers. This selected group of seniors performed yeoman tasks by managing the seating of large crowds and by acting as host to school guests. The smooth handling of back- to-school night and that ‘Follies’ extravaganza were real achievements in themselves. Serving this year were: Barbara Bedell, Dorothy Cartwright, Mary Frances Dawley, Sally Hand, Ve- ronica Henriksen, Mildred McLean, Bernice Loiz- eaux, Janet Pierson, Nancy Radford, Gloria Simon, Clara Stanfield, Margery Stryker, Martha Wimmer, Frank Camarda, Irving Davis, George French, George Hobbib, Julius Kaplan, Sam Leone, Bob Minnick, David O'Driscoll, and Bill Zieman. [85] EDITORIAL STAFF, FIRST SEMESTER THE ENTREE “You finished?” “O.K. let's have it.” “What, where you going?” ‘Promised some- one else?’ “Oh, no you don't; it’s my turn!” ... What more could attest to the popularity of a school paper? Despite the few disinterested poker faces around campaign subscrip- tion time, it was next to an impossibility to get even a “third bid” on an Entree during fifth period on the Friday of issue, and an abandoned copy found any time during the week was a real discovery. .. . No wonder the first and second period teachers were relieved when lunch period distribution was decided upon and students were able to digest the gossip with their food rather than during recitation! The editorial board of the reportorial staff changed at the end of each semester, with Ruth Boehler as editor-in-chief for the first semester, and Helen Goodwin for the second. The circulation department, headed by Veronica Henriksen, was in charge of all subscriptions and the distribution on publication day! With Irving Velinsky as chief, the advertising staff planned and solicited the advertisements. The three staffs worked under these faculty advisers: Carl K. Bomberger, journalism; ]. Eleanor Johnstone, circulation; and A. Hamilton Otto, advertising and general business management. Flash! Flash! The Entree was awarded “All-American” (superior) rating for the first time by the National Scholastic Press Association, with only thirteen school papers in the country winning higher honors. Hats off to Mr. Bomberger and his staff, and to the circulation and advertising staffs whose hard work made the paper financially possible. EDITORIAL STAFF, SECOND SEMESTER [86] LOST AND FOUND CLUB Did you mislay something or make a find? Many students had a chance to thank their lucky stars that a lost and found club existed during the past year. More than one hundred books and about forty miscellaneous articles were returned to their owners because of the efficient service of this organiza- tion of thirteen members. Lillian Bussell was president; Edith Karnell, vice-president; Rosalyn Estrin, secretary; and Nicholas Myers, treasurer. Dean Iola Moore served as club adviser. Money received from auctions of unclaimed objects was donated to worth-while causes. LIBRARY COUNCIL The Library Council, one of the oldest organizations in the school, has a twoiold purpose. First, its members, through programs, trips, and service, become familiar with the duties of library management and learn the use of materials housed there. In addition, they have an opportunity to aid the school by making possible increased service to students in the library. Miss Josephine E. Miller, librarian, sponsored the organization with the assistance of Miss Catherine Moraller. Officers of the Senior Library Council were: Jean Deats, president; Louise Phall, vice-president; Dorothy Carver, secretary; and Robert Webb, treasurer. Corresponding officers of the Fres)- man Council include: Warren Taylor, Milton Grant, Helen Christensen, and Tilghman Koons. [87] HI-Y CLUB Hi-Y’s aim is: clean speech, clean sports, clean mind, clean morals—a dynamic creed faithfully followed by the members of Hi-Y. This clup, twenty-five strong, played an important role in school affairs, as well as actively carrying on a full weekly program of their own, under the spon- sorship of dean George A. Smith. Officers included Bruce Wimer as_ president, Gerard Aitken as secretary, and George French, David O'Driscoll, Courtland Davis, Jr., Albert Pear- son, and Robert Van Buren. Pearson and Van Bu- ren are not in the above picture. Other members were: Donald Adams, Alfred Aitken, William Brown, Robert Butler, Rodman Cornell, Charles Ellingwood, Roy Gilmore, Robert Henshaw, Wayne La Poe, John Marion, William Moore, William Norman, Donald Parker, William Ricketts, and William Zieman. JUNIOR LEADERS This year the Junior Leaders’ Corps completed its tenth year of activity. The corps was under the direction of Dr. Willis B. Day, M.D., in the Y.M.C.A., and of Mr. Henry H. Banta in P.H.S. apace with its past history, the corps developed Keeping and extended its realm of education and leader- ship to a higher degree than ever before. On the executive committee were: Richard W. Lang, president; Roger R. Evans, vice-president; William B. Cotter, secretary; Russell A. Reidinger, assistant secretary; Thomas B. S.
