It has been his counsel and sympathetic understanding which has made our stay so. memorable. Mr. Sette began his education in a one-room school in Roycefield, New Iersey. He was graduated from PHS in 1929. Five years later, after receiving a B.A. degree from Columbia College, Mr. Sette returned to PHS as a teacher. In Iune, 1944, he entered the Army. Serving in the European theater, he won the Bronze Star, Good Conduct and Victory Ribbons, and the Combat Infantry Badge, After two and one half years in the service, he came back to the faculty once more. Last year, Mr. Sette was named our classmaster. Dreaming of the future, Mr. Sette hopes that there will be a younger generation that will work to the limit of its potentialities to make this world a finer place for its people. Throughout our span of lnterplanetary PHS, Mr. Sette has acted as the guiding star which has kept the axis of our planet pointed toward success. We have indeed been fortunate to have known him as the chief astronomer who has piloted our four-year trip through space.

SENIOR SPACE C ADETS U21 X ASS OFHCERS Kneehngz S 'FSPE .Cm m.m' 4-'I' SENIOR HISTORY We, the Seniors have finally reached our goal and fulfilled the requirements of true Space Cadets. This fabulous trip through Interplanetary PHS began only four years ago, when as small Freshmen we entered into this vast, new universe. Until our Freshman Party, we were lost in the clouds and were doubtful as to where we were traveling. With Stuart Lambert as our Pilot and Neal Resnikoff, Ioan Gladden and Paul Troth, our faithful crew, we were able to get a fast start on our new air lane. As Sophomores We found ourselves well acquainted with this new world, which was to be our home for three more years. To guide us across the Milky Way were Stuart Lambert, our experienced Pilot and Harvey Skolnick, Loretta Comi, and Ioan Gladden, our loyal crewmen. Putting on our jet-propelled air wings, we continued our flight into outer space as Iuniors. Steering our rocket ship was Iohn Westcott, aiding him were Mike Boruch, Barbara Warren and Roberta Mingione. Even on this fantastic flight, we discovered that we needed funds, so we decided to sell PHS Pennants to our fellow travelers. New stars were developed as we gave our first play, Good Housekeeping. During the summer, a new, fast rising star was born. Milton Campbell, a, member of the class of '53, brought honor and fame, not only to PHS, but to the world when he placed second in the decathlon during the Olympics. We are proud to say that Milt was a member of our graduating class. To begin what was to be a perfect year we had an undefeated football team. Next a lucky moonbeam touched our class and won a talent show which made us the proud owners of our new Cardinal Bird. A great applause came out of the sky when we gave our Senior Play, Our Miss Brooks. Steering us on this last lap were Frank Blatz, president and Michael Gar- zillo, Sandra Kline, and Mary Laws, our able officers. Graduation came fast and we all felt a little stardust in the air when we walked up to receive our diplomas. We weien't sure as to which star we'd reach or what rainbow we'd climb, but we felt a sense of belonging to this new world, in which we will be its future leaders. nil 5 .

Though we have stubbed our toes on the moon a few times during the past three years, we have been able to guide our missile and rise above such obstacles. We have traveled far since that first day we stepped into this new and exciting atmosphere. After our first event, the Freshman Party, we no longer felt like falling stars in a vast sky. Through the work of our faithful officers, Lowry Mann as President, and Dick Miller, Sue Kramer, and Barbara Corbin, we had taken a permanent place among the heavens. Next year we were well acquainted with the names of our fellow travelers and we all pitched in to give our first dance, the Soph Hop. No one will ever forget the fun we had that night. We also were able to add quite a few pennies from heaven to our treasury. Lew Alpaugh as President, and Mike Gutkin, Sue Kramer, and Bobbie Pond were our chosen leaders. As Iuniors, we began to take a bigger part in school affairs with Lowry Mann, one of our classmates, as Treasurer of Student Council, we were well represented in student govern- ment. We added another feather in our caps, when we decided to sell PHS feathers to help support our class. Our Iunior-Senior Dance in February was a big success, partly due to our able leaders, Dick Babbitt and Tony Grifa, Marlene Herrmann, and Lindsey Bartletta. Now we are looking forward to that jump into outer space which will take us down that star-studded path towards graduation. Next year, we will miss the companionship of our Senior Space Cadets, but with a school like PHS behind us, we will reach the brightest star and become the leaders of this new and vast world.

KIDS fig! E W, 9 SOPHOMORE HISTORY We are well aboard our rocket 55 now and headed for a fast trip through our last two years in Interplanetory PHS. We have not reached the ranks of upperclassmen yet, but we have secured a definite air lane of our own. When we arrived on Freshman Day, we were doubtful as to what was expected of us, but we had plenty of courage and all we needed was a few words of confidence from our principal, Mr. Kindig and our faithful counselors. Our first duty as loyal PHS students was to learn our Alma Mater. Next we were given the opportunity of taking part in student government by electing our Student Council Representative and Class Officers. Those who we elected to guide our jet-propelled rocket were Ronald Bender, as Captain and Sydell Ruskin, Gretchen Rademaker, Tony Curreri, Crewrnen. Without the help of the upperclass- men we gave our first school event, the Fresh- man Party. As we look back over this year, we will always remember this, our first debut into society. By our Sophomore year, we had made our- selves well known around the halls of PHS. We felt more at home when we sat in the stands to cheer our football team onto victory. In the fall we elected our officers to lead us through this wild blue yonder. Those chosen were George Friedlander, as President and Toni Smith, Gretchen Radernaker and Tony Curreri, as the respective officers. As we look through our telescope into the future, we see two more wonderful years ahead.

Was it those upperclassmen? No doubt it was, as we certainly did look like lost and bewildered Frosh. It seemed like there would never be an end to the amount of books we faithfully carried home every night. Every- thing was new and exciting. We discovered how much, PHS had to offer us, in the way of clubs, sports and student government. We all tried to do a little of everything and we found our spare time well used up. We will never forget the thrill we felt when we cheered, with the rest of the school, to send our undefeated football team to glory. With October came election time when some of our bolder classmates campaigned for the opportunity of being our class officers. Those whom we elected were: Robert Kelly, presi- dent, Jeremiah O'Sulliva.n, vice-presidenty Eileen Gartenberg, secretary, and Loretta Spiegel, treasurer. We were very eager to get into the swing of things so we planned our first school affair, the Freshman Party. What lun we had getting to know everyone! There were too many names to remember but at least we had a chance to get acquainted with the kids that will be our fellow travelers on this four year flight through lnterplanetory PHS. With the hope that we will know them better, we whiz along on the tail of our comet into space. ml '1' 1 HOME ROOM 280 Girls Patricia McCreesh Evelyn Mcl-lugh Nina Menger Faye Mikell Ieanette Mills Christine Mitchell Lois Mormile Barbara Murray Bernice Mathanson Fern Neal lacqueline Newmann Beverly Newland Rosalie Nettoli Boys Iim McLean William Meade Steve Meyer Robert Mignella lack Milland Kenneth Miller William Miller Donald Mislak Thomas Mollo Ioseph Mondore Robert Murray Robert Neill Thomas O'Donnell David Oeskovic Neil Price Wayne Price HOME ROOM 60 Girls Phyllis Acker Catherine Anderer Gail Anderson Priscilla Anderson Martha Bailey Barbara Banghart Faye Barr Catherine Behan Ioyce Behan Patty Bell Lena Rose Bengiuenga Lois Bennett Loretta Bergen Iean Berry Sylvia Berry Martha Bungenstock Boys William Apgar Iohn Armstrong Roger Babcock Stephen Babin Don Bailey Allan Baker Richard Baker Alfred R.

Milton's athletic career started in Emerson where he excelled in all sports. When he entered high school, Milton tried his hand at many types of athletics. In the winter, Sir Milt swims on the Plainfield team and participates in the various indoor track meets around the country. Once he wrestled and pinned the fellow who became the state champ. Although Milt has been a regular and a star of the Cardinal football eleven since his sopho- more year, his feats in track and field have won him the most plaudits. For two consecu- tive years this future college man has won the national interscholastic title at Madison Square Garden for Plainfield. He came within one second of tying the world's indoor record in the 60 yd. high hurdles which is 7.1 seconds. Milt won world wide attention during the summer of 1952 when he took second place, behind Bob Mathias. of Tulare, California, in the Olympic decalthon at Helsinki, Finland. In the Olympic tryouts held in California, Milt became the seventh person in the history of the decalthon to score over 7,000 points. Milton received numerous invitations to participate in the indoor meets held during the past winter. Milt came close to beating Harrison Dillard, the world's 120 yd. high hurdles champion in every meet in which the two entangled. During an invitation meet in Iamaica, British West Indies, Milt upset Dillard, breaking the Iamacian record for the event. Many people have stated that Ioe Black, star pitcher with the Brooklyn Dodgers, put Plainfield on the map of the United States. But Black said of Milton, I may have put Plain- field on the United States map, but Milt has put Plainfield on the world map. Sports 8 J - 36 27 an so as S3 943 VARSITY FOOTBALL First Row: D.
