After getting off to a fair start in the first subscription campaign, the circulation staff with CHFIIGSI efforts came smashing through the end of the second subscription campaixrn with a new high record of 532 copies sold. Chief accountant Alice McElhone was an Hin- dispensable manw in connection with the sub- scription campaign and deserved high praise along with the rest for her loyalty and hard work. Art Gruneisen, Martha Johnson, and Urma Thompson also accounted for a consid- erable part of the campaigns, success by their striking posters. Not to be outdone by the circulation staff, the advertising staff also broke a new record by selling more than E400 worth of advertising, another record for Milestone. Much of the staf'f's success was due to the hard work and time spent by advertising manager Tom Rogers. Jean McDonough acted as salesman on the staff for sale of studio group pictures. The underclass response to this year's Milestone was especially heartening, largely due to all freshman and sophomore homeroom chairmen who acted as circulation stafl' repre- sentatives, and to the juniors who served on the regular staff. These juniors included George Malzmann, Eleo de Matteo, Donald McVoy, William Parlett, Donald Redfern., and Lester Zega. Supporting manager Don Adams, the senior staff members were: Stella Bishara, Oscar Brax- ton, Eleanor Gilman, Eleanor Goldberg, Jeanne Kling, Waylie LaPoe, Helen Moran, Frank Minarck, Jane Robertson, Dan Randolph, Jolm Callahan, Joan deRevere, Aleida Stomps, Roger Wvhitford, Lois Ammerman, Russ Hoffman, Janice Terrill, and Donald Perelaiko. Seniors who helped advertising manager Tom Rogers sell ads were: Adele deVitalis, Audrey Drake, Wlilbur Cundlach, Norman Hobbib, John Lounsbury, Bill Moore, Jeanne Neale, Betty Jane Reynolds, Alvin Stein., J6iillll8 Swaysland, and Marjorie Webb.

Under the able leadership of Buddy Battistella as president, George Malzmann as vice-president, Marye Adams as secretary, and Mary Denny as treasurer, it managed to show up pretty well under the gruelling routine of schoolwork. The renowned 'ajunior Revue was lauded by the keenest critics as a truly great performance. In Brothers in Battlef, a one-act play which was very well received, ,lean Hoffman, James Parker, Lester Zega, Bob Krieger, and ,lim Pearson displayed their fine acting ability. A night club was the setting of the second rendition in which more than 100 juniors participated. Many acts were presented with a patriotic finale. Then there was the junior roller skating party, which was an even greater success than a similar party held last year. The Plainfield Amusement Academy certainly had a gala night when the juniors invaded the premises! The crowning event of the year's activities was, of course, the Junior-Senior Prom. According to the tradition of all Junior- Senior Proms it was held in the boys' gym in June. Mellow music-soft lights-swell decorations-all contributed to make this climax really worthy of its place in the history of the class of 1942! f ROOM 341 Ryan.

Junior Girls at Their Favorite Sport. With the energy and originality of '6Meph- istof' the wonder horse in the junior revue, the junior class has galloped over the year making history on the track, on the field, in the class- room, on the stage, and in the artsl Under the leadership of Walter Battistella fpresidentj , George Malzmann fvice presidentl, Marye Adams lsecretaryj, and Mary Denny ltreasurerj, their first really big affair was held on December 6 and 7, when the high school stage was transformed into a night club for the junior revue. Featured were UA La Cartef, the 4'0zark Triangle, and the burlesque, 6'The Vil- lain Still Pursues Herwfin addition to many variety stunts, musical and dance routines, and a lot of real fun for the huge cast and the audience. In dramatic talent, ,lean Hoffman, James Parker, Robert Kreiger, Lester Zega, and James Pearson walked off with tl1e honors in '5Brothers In Battle, a one act play with the setting Christmas Eve, also given in the revue. And then the junior class proved that it could fall hard, and not mind it, at the skating party Marcli 22, which added S75 to one of the largest treasuries any class has ever had. Among the highlights was Mildred Galloway,s solo number and the a'Moonlight.,, As far as literary ability is concerned there have been no sluggards in this class, with all but one member of The Entree editorial staff being juniors. Then, as they rounded the turn and started down the home stretch, came the highlight of the year. Combined for the first time with the senior class, the junior-senior prom June 6, built around the theme of spring. George Malz- mann was junior class chairman. With such a running start, the junior class promises to be out in front next year, running for the best year of achievements and enjoy- ment in high school history. -52- ROOM 121 Abrams, J., Ackerman, F., Allen, A., Baron, J..

The record of the Plainfield High School football team of 1940-41 was spotty. ln eight contests they won one, tied one, and lost six. From the first whistle to the last, the fates seemed to be against the team. The course was a hard and disappointing one, but make no mistake! the team wanted no excuses. They were beaten fairly and squarely by better teams. They played their hardest and best and had a lot of fun doing it. The first ame with Princeton ended in a 7-0 defeat for PHS after our bo s had tram Jled fl' Y I all over a heavier Princeton team, outrushing, outpassing, and outplaying them. In the next game with Columbia a valiant team was defeated by a better team by a score of 19-0. Bound Brook was the Cards, next opponent and the fame ended in a fateful 6-6 tie. Coach Bill Brannis charges tl1e11 journeyed to East Orange, only to be defeated in the last quarter by a score of 13-7. Next came the long-to-be-remembered, rather forgotten Mor- ristown game, a score of 27-0 with the Cardinals on the short end. Now came the contest in which our warriors clashed with their ancient rivals, North Plainfield, who fell before the onslaught of the now formidable Cardinals. The fates were now on our side, at last, a score of 12-13 proved that. Westheld and West Orange then came and defeated our battle-scarred warriors by scores of 13-0 to wind up an unsuccessful season. The team had no stars but many meteorites: Joe Curka, Nick the Creek Medrocostis, Charley Banks, Bill Rothfuss, Mike Yannotta, Bud Owens, Al Ryno, Larry son, 'LHurricane Van Nest, and Ray and Russ Hoffman.

They have 12 regular assistants and twelve subs who report for duty at a min- ute's notice. -621 BOOTERS Another of the successful teams under the direction of Coach Harold Bruguiere is tl1e as- sociation football team, more commonly known as the soccer team. The team, led by captain Al Ziemenski, succeeded in beating Pingry twice, only to lose a pair to Summit, and to Long Branch. The hardest fray of the season was the Chatham game which was lost in the last five seconds.

Wzllt Mt-Ginley and his team- mates literally ran all opponents into the ground. The first school to fall before PHS was Regional. Walt McGinley and Ed Daly finished, tying for first place. Next on the schedule was Railway with the same result. Then came the only defeat of the season, Thomas Jefferson, although Mac and Ed came in first, there were not enough of their teammates close behind to win the meet. Union was then conquered by the scarlet and blue runners, to conclude the dual meet season. The State meet was the first on the cham- pionship list, and our team captured third place. They placed second in the Union County Cham- pionships, and Wzllt McGinley ended the sea- son by winning the A.A.U. county champion- ship. First rowf-W. Ellis, F. Sweeney, R. Milan. W. McGinley, E.

Eddie Kane Qwho with Dan Randolph captained the Plainfield squad? was high scorer for the year. Top score for a single contest was KOClIUll,S twenty-four points in the Westheld game. Next year,s squad will be far better because they will still have most of this year,s varsity men+Pluggy Kochan, Bill Smith, Joe Black, Bill Saunders, Eddie Kane, and Red Daley. ..64- Burning The team with the best record of any Cardinal squad, the swimming team enjoyed another successful season under the able coach- ing of Mr. Vic Liske.

All the classes participated, but this year the seniors were again the inter-class winners. Archery ,Team First row, left to right: M. Webb, M. Jones, M. C01-des, C. Wales, A. deVitalis.

Under the captaincy of Bertha Kulthau, the seniors won a decisive victory over the juniors. The senior basketball team was also the intramural champion. A large team under the leadership of Margery Beal won by Cl close margin. The most popular of the winter sports for girls is badminton. It is restricted to juniors and seniors only.

Learning how 13. Luncheon expressions The tudent Uounvil The student council of Plainfield High at first was composed of the class and athletic presidents. Its purpose was to discuss the most pressing problems facing the school and often it would meet not more often than twice a year. In the ensuing years, the idea of furthering democracy and representation in the administration of the school became preeminent in the minds of the students. Since then the council has grown in many ways. It has made possible an activity ticket for 1942 which will include all forms of school activities, and has made internal ad- justments in its constitution which will allow the council to increase its efficiency by com- mencing sooner in the fall. The presiding ollicers of the year 1940-41 council were: president, Philip Weisbeckerg vice-president, Harrison Rhodes, secretary, Eleanor Goldbergg and treasurer, Martha Grace Ellis. The advisers were Miss Iole Moore and Mr. H. F. Daum. The student council was formed, and has well survived, with one main purpose-the freedom for each and every student to he given an opportunity to state his opinions about the administration of his school. It is through this system of student-government that the student obtains the experience and independence which is a vital part of his education. The council has extended its voice through- out the state, and it is considered an authority on the organization of county councils. STUDENT COUNCIL Left to Right Bottom to Top First row: P.

The members them- selves are taught through lessons, programs, and trips, the important elements in library manage- ment and the use of library materials of all kinds. For this work, each member receives one point a year. The club is sponsored by Miss ,Iosephiuc E. Miller., librarian, assisted by Miss Catherine Moraller. Officers for the council of 1940-1941 were: Warren Taylor, presidentg Joan Harper, vice-presidentg Ralph Munsie, secretary, and Tilghman Koons, treasurer. But all is not work in the council! Al- though most of the work is interesting, they havehother kinds of fun too. Their trips are lots of fun and so are the many parties and get-togethers that the members have. lt is really an all-around club. First row: L. Alexander, D. Merkin. R. Hoffman. W.

February 27 was the date of this year's annual band concert which, as usual, was even better than last year's. Witll the roll of drums and the crashing ol' the cymbals our band marches proudly out on the field and the crowds cheer! Seventy of our Plainfield High boys and girls make a bright spectacle as they march along in their red and blue uniforms. Heading our gay procession are our ten whirling twirlers flashing their silver batons. Drum majorette this year was high-stepping Ida De Lisle.

After weeks of rehearsal their work was re- warded by a highly successful concert on March 28. The orchestra plays under the able baton of M r. A. Dwight Brown, who has been directing it for four years. This year Dorothy Davis toboel won mem- bership in the All-State Orchestra: and Clayton Baer won the state flute solo contest and IS rep- resenting New Jersey in the national contest.

Searles, rehearsing for a program. There are two choirs, one each for freshmen and the upper classmen, the membership of which choirs totals 100 girls. Another section of the group, the Motet choir, which sings with piano accompaniment, consists of 22 selected voices of the A Capella choir. The combined choirs gave a most effective program of Lenten music for the assembly be- fore Easter. The Motet choir was also active this spring, giving three outside appearances in April, a11d singing in the orchestra concert in March. The entire choir participated in the choral festival in May, climaxing a busy sched- ule. ,Iiai ed in Song The glee club, under the direction of Mr. Howard Savage, is conducted as an unprepared class subject. It is not like other clubs in that it resembles a class, marks are given, and a point is received by members at the end of the year. Therefore there are no club oflicersg how- ever there is a business manager, Hanna Flan- ders this year.

Oh yes, all these and many more are familiar sentences to the ears of the members of the dramatic club. Under the cap- able supervision of Miss Ruth LeFevre, students have come into the club, to leave perhaps not as professionals, but at least with the ability to put drama across on the stage. The club plans and presents programs, ad- vertises various enterprises, occasionally attends professional performances, secures speakers 011 the stage, and engineers the all-school produc- tions. But the main object of the club is to give people who are even slightly gifted dra- matically a chance to show and improve their ability.

Miss Gertrude Moody, in charge of the ushers, has a special system of selecting girl and boy ushers. To every home room a blank is sent to be signed by anyone who would like to be an usher. Then this list is sent around to all the students' respective teachers for approval. Wihen it at last gets back to Miss Moody, she selects those names which were rated highest. Then these fortunate few go to workl They step right in their predecessors' places and take charge of the assemblies. At commencement the new ushers have complete charge-adding much to the success of the night, as well as all other programs by their cooperation and reliability. Plainfield Senior Hi-Tri had a very success- ful year under the leadership of Miss Edith Glendenning, new Girl Reserve secretary.
