The re- flection of the flames throws a dim iridescence over the scene. How easy it is for one to lie back and dream. The swaying of the fire seems like thousands of dancers moving before me. The crisp sound that is the flame as it hungrily licks the wood, reminds one of the lilt of a thousand violins. It reminds me of an opera. I can hear the heroine with a high clear voice that soars through song like a bird through the heavens. I think that I shall be an opera singer, if only in my imagination. How wonderful it would be. How glorious to live the part of Verdi's Aida or Wagner's Isolde Or to be Cho-Cho-San the tragic heroine of Puccini's Madame Butterfly. How beautifully the melody of the flames gently sweeps onward and upward. They dance in leaps and bounds reaching to caress the sky. A dancer! Yes, perhaps I would like to be a dancer. To dance as the flames before me are Hitting, gracefully and featherlike. To dance before thousands of people, mindful only of the throbbing of the violins, to follow the music freely like a carefree gypsy in his wanderings. Perhaps I would like to be a gypsy, to merely wander o'er the land, living with nature as one of her children. To gather with others around the campfire in the evening to dance and sing. I can hear the guitars and the sobbing of the violins amidst the sound of happy voices and the leaping flame of the fire. My fire is also leaping and subsiding only to leap again higher than before. The world is so full of beauty that to describe it is a breathless art in itself. To describe to others a beautiful aria, a floating dance or the Vagabond life of a gypsy is glorious. The poet does this. Yes, now I know more than all other things I would like to be a poet. To show my readers a dancer as she whirls and dips as if blessed with wings. To bring to the world the voice of a beautiful singer so that they may thrill to the beauty of her song. To have my readers feel the abandon of the gypsy dancing, by the light of a campfire. Yes, I shall be a poet to bring beauty to the world through the efforts of my pen. My fire is now burning slowly and softly. Once more there issues from it the sound of hushed laughter. Do you mock my dreams, fire? My dreams were beautiful although only dreams. Also beautiful is the music of your murmuring. Burn fire, burn a melody of flame for me. -Marjorie Cooper. A WINTER NIGHT The silvery moon glides over the darkened sky, Shimmering as it passes over the crystal lake. In the distance the glittering skates of maidens Glide over the frozen lake to the strains of The Skater's Waltz. Could ever a night be made more beautiful than this? -Madeline Loprete. Page Eight JANUARY, 1939 CUNCCERT It was August ninth, 1938, and Lewisohn Stadium was filled with music lovers, and a few who did not love music. When the great Hofmann appeared, there was thunderous applause. Then the Symphony Orchestra began to play, and a hush came over the audience. Faces were, by turns, expectant, disap- pointed, inspired, rapturous and revealing. When the program was nearing the half-way mark, a few listeners be- came restless. A few yawns were stifled, a bit of coughing aroused the others long enough for them to violently hush the offenders. Mrs. Holmes, sitting down in front, was worried. At her left sat Mr. Phillips, young, handsome, intent on the music. It was he who had suggested the concert, and although the restive Mrs. Holmes detested symphonic music, she had readily agreed because of her anxiety to please Danny Phillips. She had wondered how Danny had been able to secure the best seats, she later discovered that he had had passes, and her lips had become derisory. Mrs. Holmes was an attractive woman of thirty who looked twenty-five. Well-built, having an exquisite taste in her choice of clothes, and possessing a face with which several beauty shops were familiar, she appeared at all times, well- groomed and good-looking. She had made Danny understand that she was going to be divorced, else he never would have continued seeing her. Of course she would never divorce Bill Holmes-he offered too much security. She had been attracted to Danny at a cocktail party, and had contrived to prolong the acquaintance until some- thing deeper had been established. Her husband had no other interest in her than for displaying her as a model for clothes. When in his company, however, she succeeded admirably as a model for an acrimonious tongue. He attempted to conceal the latter with excuses. Because of the voluble flattery she received, her vanity was temporarily appeased. She desired more and more attention, and Danny was gullible enough to believe that she was sincere in her affection. Phyllis Holmes, tonight, knew that her double-crossing could not last much longer, yet she was loath to surrender her enjoyment. Selfish she was, yet her vanity suppressed what little intelligence she might have had. Strange that Danny Phillips was attracted to her? No, not at all odd. It is common enough for a man to be temporarily blinded by a woman's faults, is it not? She hoped that none of her friends would see her with Danny, yet few en- joyed music. Her brow was wrinkled in worry and she wished the pesky musicn would stop so that Danny could tell her again how well she was look- ing . . . Danny, beside her, was lost in a world of his own, one which she could never enter. Mrs. Holmes restlessly looked about her, noting the apparel of other wo- men, judging critically. Then she began to worry again. If Bill discovered that she was seeing another man continuously, he would divorce her . . . Heaven knows he had grounds enough! In less expensive seats, sat Dolly Owens and her husband. They were cel- ebrating their first wedding anniversary and were very much in love. They were both passionately fond of music, only one of their common interests. Page N ine SENIOR OPTIMIST Page Ten During the intermission, they preferred to remain in their seats, smoking and looking about eagerly to see if any of their friends were present. Suddenly Dolly glimpsed Phyllis Holmes speaking to Danny. Dolly had some know- ledge of Phyllis' intimate affairs, before she had married Bob, she had been employed in Phyllis' favorite dress shop, and Phyllis had spoken freely to a sympathetic listener. Dolly had needed to be sympathetic . . . She had seen Danny with Phyllis a number of times. She and Bob knew Danny well and were fond of the young man. She exclaimed, Bob, we must warn Danny of that woman. Bob laughed, pulled her hand into his and told her to forget her magnanimous intentions. But whenever Dolly looked at the couple, she worried. However, she managed to live with the music and was carried away by the great pianist's inspired playing. Sidney Golden was unsuccessfully trying to have a flirtation with the girl at his right. She was absorbed in the music. He liked music but it had no overpowering effects on him. The orchestra was playing a sad, sweet melody, a haunting, lingering song which made tears come to the eyes of the girl at Sidney's right. She was remembering Richard who was now rotting under Spanish soi'l. Oh, what's the use! Sidney thought to himself-hmm-nice ankles, pretty good figure, blonde, looks sad. Marie was seated on Danny Phillip's right and she thought that the next time her employer asked her to work late she would not refuse. What mat- ter-. With a twist to her lips, He'll think it's cute, but my mother if sick . . . Althea Porter, Socialist, and sitting high on the stone steps with the sky seeing near, was lost in the beauty of the now fiery piano solo. She came out of her riverie reluctantly, having felt the spirit of the music enter her. The music had touched her and distressed her, and the effect was poignant and fCon!imzed on Page 69j INSPIRATION One needs but get that sensation, That thought of someone dear, Or perhaps, patriotism for a nation, That can bring the feeling, that burns and sears, Until in hand, one clutches the pen, the brush, the clay, Then heaven move hell, it may-g With trembling hand and feverish brow He struggles on, he dare not stop now, That seed, it must be sowedg At last, with eyes of reverent tears, He lays aside his clarion torch To reveal the monument he mowed To the vagabond of passions, inspiration. -Louis Scbleifer. JANUARY 1939 OUTCCAST It was a cold, grey afternoon. The countryside was bleak and barren. The onlygsign of life was a slowly moving figure which trudged wearily along the narrow winding road. His coat was well worn and he shivered pitifully as the wind chilled him to the bone. He had travelled far that day. He travelled far every day, wandering aimlessly about the country, no home, no place to go. After while, he came to a broken-down house. It was a home,-someoneis home. Maybe they would help him. He passed through the broken gate, up to the house, without noticing the For Sale sign in front. There was no answer, and he turned, slowly retracing his steps to the road. Weary, he travelled on, and presently came upon a little girl with her mother. He raised his head eagerly as the child came toward him, but a sharp word from the woman brought the child back to her mother's side. He kept on and on till the darkness of night crept over the world. Then, his remaining strength spent, he collapsed in a heap at the side of the road. Bk wk Ik Pk HK wk The sun rose, disclosing a white-clad earth. The sun's rays gleamed on the snow which had fallen during the night. In the distance was heard the jingle of bells and a horse-drawn sleigh came into view. A little girl was in the sleigh with her father. At a cry from the child, the man stopped the sleigh and got out. There on the ground, covered with snow, lay a still, cold figure. As the man lifted the frozen form in his arms, the child exclaimed, Oh Daddy, the poor dog is dead! -Betty N ester REVERTE LOST-Sixty precious moments, each set with sixty diamond seconds. No reward offered, for they are gone forever. Time, what is it? How is it measured? The ticking of the clock, the passing of day into night, the changing of the seasons? We bow down to it as if it were a god, it rules us as no king or dictator would. Our every moment is motivated by this force. It is fleeting at our happiest moments, it is at a standstill at our moments of despair. It speeds like a train, it crawls like a turtle. If it is lost, it can never be regained. Time is more precious than gold, more fickle than a young maid. We are regulated by an uncontrollable tyrant. At one o'clock we must do this, at two, we must do that. Even the exactitude of science is dominated by this uncontrollable force. How can we hope to work in harmony with something which is here and not here simultaneously, some force which is friend and foe. -Florence Brtwermtzn Page Eleven SENIOR OPTIMIST TRADITION UNDRESSED To talk about tradition is O. K. It's got everything when you just talk,- fwith color,j with glamour and rah-rah,-the stuff that makes you cry in your suds. But to me what's seen it made, it's just another bottle of liniment to be corked and put back on the shelf. I've been trainer at this diploma factory, Christian U., a long time. Tradition at this school goes back to 1921 when it just got out of the cor- respondence school class and got a football stadium. The first year we had a team, it was like leading the lamb to slaughter. We were the lamb. Our major troub'le was that we hired a coach that could take the Gettysburg Ad- dress and spiel it like the Tiger Rag-with variations. He sure could get sad after each game and he sure had cause to. After each game, he'd tell me, with a little tradition for him to work on, heid get the boys to commit legalized murder. We were in a very sad way. It comes that we have only two more games to play, we haven't scored all season and it looks like soon the coach will walk the lonesome road. This was bad because no other man in his right mind would take the job. If we have no coach, then no football. No football, then we lose our nice new stadium for welshing on our second, not so easy, payment. And worst of all, the school goes back to peddling mail order culture. The day set for the next-to-the-last game rolls around. It's a bum day with rain, sleet, snow and what have you. About all that shows up for the game are the players and the officials. It is so bad that the S.P.C.A. refuses to let the mascots out in the wet. In the first half, our right guard gets hep and passes some remark that donlt sit so well on some husky. By chance it happens this husky is what they call hyper-sensitive and is easily inspired to greater things. He sets to work performing mayhem on any bric-a-brac that can be found about,-bric being our Right Guard from the back, brac from the front. The coach senses what is happening so every time the Right Guard gets pinked, he unwraps a sub to warm up and down the side lines. This meatball's name is Gustav Wind. He is a dumbell what would need a collection plate to gather a thought, and the only thing fast about him is his name. The Guard lasts the half, and Wind is in a heavy sweat. In the second half the prima donna ballerina doesn't show up and the Guard, being older and wiser, passes cracks at no one but himself. You can see he is hard pressed toward slipping himself a fast answer by the way the oppostion is waltzing through him. But Heaven is with us and has sent the rain which keeps the score down, anyway. Gustav, back on the bench, surprised at being asked to warm up, forgets to slip back into his jacket so by the end of the game he is walking a fever. He is that slow. Sunday, I spend cleaning the uniforms and listening to the coach moan for tradition. To hear him talk, you'd think all he needed was tradition to get the Sing Sing team a bid to the Rose Bowl. I could almost believe him. The door opens and in comes Gustav Wind. His usually bright gait is patterned Page Twelve JANUARY 1939 after the funeral march but today he walks as though if he puts a foot in the wrong place, it's curtains. S'matter Gus ? I ask him. Then I wait for my answer. You always have to wait for Gus. I claim it's because he's looking for a hidden meaning. I'm sick. Sick ? fPausej- Yeah, I'm sick. What seems to be the trouble, Gus ? fLaterj - I still got that fever from the game - The coach breaks in here. What, he yodels, you got a fever at the game? Following a long intermission comes a, Yeah. The coach's mouth drops open just like he was offered a ten-year con- tract. He walks up to Wind and puts his hand on his shoulder like he was going to decorate him. Gus, he announces, you've done this for the school. Gus is stumped and ain't sayin' nothing. The coach knows he is the strong very silent type, so he answers for him. First he c'lears his throat. Gus, he begins on a low, even, earnest pitch, you're a hero. You are only a sub but you gave your all. And what an all and you gave unquestioningly, fHere he rises an octavej and unselfishly! What a noble gesture! The solid basis upon which all tradition is built. From the great base rises the great edifice. Let us ring down the curtain with the coach looking dreamily at Gus as if he sees the dawn of a new day. SIHIHIHIHIHK It is now Tuesday. What has happened since Sunday, I can't believe. Gus- tav Wind is now installed in the infirmary flanked by doctors who havenit shaved since Taft, cute nurses and flowers that smell like a funeral. Outside on the campus is the whole student body singing our school song- Onward Christian Soldiers to the tune of America the Beautifulf' Following which the coach renders his I have come to bury Caesar with variations. The stu- dent body is quite moved and you can almost see the tradition growing on the trees. By Friday, Gus is feeling as well as he ever did, but the coach keeps him in the infirmary. Also he spreads the word that Gus is declining. So again the school gathers on the inflrmary lawn to chant a chorus for tradition, the news reels, and maybe for Gus. Saturday breaks clear and the stadium fills early. The coach has the team in the dressing room early. He starts right in on Gus. You know the line. Up there in the infirmary lies a man who didn't think twice about giving his all for the school. A man who put the school before himself. He asks for nothing. He gave all. All he says is, 'Tell them to win this one for me.' just then somebody runs past the club yelling Fire, I beat everybody to the window and right off I see that the Corn State Normal junior College's four opponenfsj club house is on fire. Right away, I beat it out of the dressing Page Thirteen SENIOR OPTIMIST room toward the fire. It's a good thing we put Corn State in back away from the stadium. We had figured, before our break came, that the whole Corn State team would come clown with pneumonia as there was no heat installed. I rushed up to one of the firemen and asked him, how come? He tells me. Some wit gives a hot foot to a guy what's got a wooden leg, fAnother tradition that started herej and the first thing you know the uniforms is burnt and then goes the whole building. We've only got 18 uniforms and no matter how you add you canit get twenty-two men into 18 uniforms. So that puts the clamps on the game. So we claim the game by forfeit and finally get credit for a win. But that don't save the school from the mailman nor the stadium from the bank. The coach grabs the microphone and heads for the center of the field, then he turns slowly like Sitting Bull blowing the pipe of peace to the Four Winds. Then he gives them ask nothing,-give all -with variations. That saved the day's receipts. vrawrarafae Things are different here now. The coach sits behind a big desk thinking up speeches for dinners while a half dozen assistants, one being Gustav Wind, show the boys how to play football. But he still regrets that he didn't say something that day to make the spectators give toward the building of a new dressing room. Frank Lowery SENTORS' GRIND Work! Work! Work! Come now, do not shirk! That's what a Senior hears all day, Work! Work! Work! Our homework teachers won't stop. They give pages and chapters to do. Who gives the most work reaches the top, His prize is his joy at having enslaved you. Work! Work! Work! Come now, do not shirk! That's what a Senior hears all day, Work! Work! Work! It's for your good, they say, They don't care if we sit all day And study and study, till we feel we'll die. If We cram any more, we'll shout to the sky. Oh, we work, and we work, and we work. They don't give us a chance to shirk. Why, you're 4A'sg soon you'll be out of school. They don't let us forget but still stick to this rule- Of work-work-work! ---Leonard Arnold. Page Fourteen JANUARY 1939 AMIBSITIIONS THAT oTHiEHs HAv1E HAH iron ME ' By W. P. Adams This is the sad story of the life of,W. P. Adams secured at an interview with him as he did his bit to render South Side waterproof. My name is William P. Adams and I have waited years to tell the world the sad story of my life. As it does for all men, life began for me when I was born. I had hardly cut my first tooth when my trouble began. My father de- cided that I was the prettiest baby in the country and tried to get me hired for advertisements. I was hired, but alas, my picture was shown all over the country to illustrate what would happen to any baby that was not fed Bor- dine's Certified Baby Milkf, When I was four months old, my mother determined that I was an in- fant prodigy and started to teach me how to read. When I was two I spoke my first word! Thus my career ran on. At the age of four my promise as a great pianist was ended when simultaneously my parents received a restraining injunction and the finance company took away our piano. To console me, or rather them, I was placed in kindergarden where I made great progress for three years. I then advanced rapidly through the grades graduating with hon- ors at the age of seventeen. Hereupon my parents, aunts, uncles, and other hangers-on decided that my great genius warranted a good education, so I was sent to the best preparatory school in the country. Six years later I tried to enter collge, but the only one that would accept me was a barber's college. My proud father now was sure that I had found my niche in this world. He forecast the day when I would be the premier tonsorial artist of the world. Alas, my career was cut short when, due to a mathematical miscalcu'lation, I cut a subject's ears off instead of his hair. I was further disgraced when after being given a second chance, I cut a man's throat while shaving him. In the meantime, having acquired a wife and six children, I was forced to join the WPA. There at last was success. I rose from ditch digger to foreman, to pro- ject director. Then tragedy came. A bridge that my crew was working on col- lapsed. My friend in Washington died and I made the foolish mistake of vot- ing Republican. So here I am chipping away at the side of your honorable school. Well, so long, here comes the foreman! -Norman Liclalin. METAMOIRPHOSIS As a freshman I entered bewildered and green As a sophomore I 'learned it paid tobe seen As a junior, I worked hard for South Side High And now as a senior, I dread the good-bye. -Beffenice Stein. Page Fifteen SENIOR OPTIMIST HOMEWORK Boy, this history is tough. Let's see! The reconstruction period began right after the Civil War. The three major problems-Oh dear, I wonder if he really is noticing me at last-jim March, I mean. He spoke to me for the first time today, since we were introduced. Maybe it was my new dress that did it-the salesgirl said it brought out the green in my eyes. jim's really marvelous! He should be-he's our star football player. Gosh! If he ever really started to notice me, would the other girls be jealous! That catty Grace Turner said I wouldn't get to first base with him but I'm going to show her a thing or two. Of course he'll have to ask me to the Senior Prom. I think I'll get a white gowng then maybe he'll nickname me his White Angel. I'd love that. We won't be able to be engaged right away, at least not until we both graduate. But I'll let the other girls know he's mine. Will that green-eyed monster get hold of them! It's a shame the way the girls run after him. It's really only coincidence that I pass him so much in the hall, although I was late for English when I cut through the auditorium so I could pass him again. Now where was I?-Problem No. 1-Governments had to be furnished -I guess I am lucky he notices me at all. His brown wavy hair, brown eyes, and pearly teeth attract all the girls. It would be nice if he would Serenade me outside of. my window. I could climb out on the porch roof and pretend I was Juliet! No-that wouldn't work, I made believe I was Juliet the time I liked Bill Graham. It's a good thing I didn't kill myself when he left school, or I never would have met jim March. Last time I was Scarlet O'Hara, but that was because Artie was raising a moustache and reminded me of Rhett Butler. I might be different this time and pretend I'm myself. I think I'm going to try it. Maybe Jim likes natural girls who are sweet and shy. It's worth tryin . I.et's see-three problems of reconstruction: onel. --Betty Nerter. GOODBYE FRIENDS As our graduation time draws near, It brings back memories of yesteryear. We remember starting South Side High anew, And now 'tis time to say to friends, Adieu. We donlt want to say, Farewell, so soon, But since we must, let's say it with a tune. Let it be Bingo and no other one To say Goodbye, now that four years are done. -Selma Walt.

Although the girls at South Side have no interscholastic competition, they do enter into intramural sports. Girls' Hockey always has a large following and this year there was no exception. Under the guidance of Miss Lucille Walters, the girls had a grand time roughing it at Weequahic Park. Our Senior Hockey Champions are Edna Dauenhauer, jean Tarasuk, Margaret McGinn, Eve Geiser, Ruth Schott, Betty Nester, Bette Walsh, Alice Enjeian, Loretta Stevens and Ann Ruff. Despite the fact that not very much is mentioned about girls' ping-pong at South Side, neverthless they did enter into the sport. The graduating ping-pong paddlers are Ann Ruff, jean Tarasuk, Ruth Schott, and Loretta Stevens. The girls were greatly aided by Miss Winifred Pearce, their able adviser. The Dianas, Dan Cupids, or what have you, who will be graduated from South Side this term are Margaret McGinn, Ruth Schott, Fannie Sant' Angelo, Mary Sulzman, and Jean Tarasuk. The archers held their practice in front of the school under the supervision of Miss Pearce. Under the leadership of Miss Walters, Margaret McGinn and Betty Nester were the Senior swimmers at the Y. M. H. A. pool. Volley ball is no longer among the girls' intramural sports in South Side, but everyone enjoyed playing while it lasted. Miss Pearce, again, was a most instructive adviser. The Senior competitors were Ruth Schott, Loretta Stevens, jean Tarasuk, and Fannie Sant' Angelo. Although the Dance Club may not be classed as a true sport, many hours of enjoyment were spent by the girls. The Dance Club frequently entertained the school at large during assembly programs. Senior members are: Ruth Schott, the Club President, Edna Dauenhauer, Laurel Lacks, Belle Walsh, Betty Nester, Yetta, Kamm, and Alice Enjeian. The girls owe many thanks to Miss Rose Popkin, their instructor, for her interest and enthusiasm. Rmb Scholz. DLMMTNG LIGHTS This is the time of year when the black and gold of South Side is laundered and returned-all black. For it is the occasion when the athletes, who for four years romped on the gridiron, court, water, diamond, and track, leave the portals never again to return. This year the crop is greater in quality than in quantity. Our coaches will mourn their losses, for all of them were the backbone and mainstay of the teams. We call the honor roll. In football, one of the bright patches on an Page Forty JANUARY 1939 otherwise dark field was Captain Hy Grossman, who as varsity center for two years, has kept the tradition that South Side centers are among the best in the state. His consistently great brand of football had opposing coaches awake nights trying to figure out ways of taking him out of play. Frank Scudiery is one of the best and gamest tackles ever to enter our portals. His Savage tackling and teaming with Mike Purzycki helped win us the city championship in 1937. His continued brilliance this year helped bolster an inexperienced line. If he goes on to college, we believe he will make still a better name for himself. Ken Egan has been the hard luck boy. This fellow who for four years showed promise of being a star, due to external circum- stances, not through his own fault, failed to materialize. This year, when his hopes were brightest, he broke his leg early in the season, and was kept out of most games. However, when he did get in there, he played a bang-up game. Here is hoping that in outside life, he will have all the luck in the world, and miss that string of hoodoos. George johnson, a tall blond fellow, was a good, steady, unsensational end. He is one of those fellows who plays a whale of a game and gets little of the credit and plenty of the abuse. He is also a fine fellow off the gridiron, and has done as well in his studies as in football. Mike Nosach is one of the players on the style of johnson,-an end who does what he is told, and does a great job of it. He is a handsome young man, the Clark Gable of January, '39. Had he come out sooner, this last year was his first yearj, he might have developed into another star like Bernie Franks, or Joe Sadofsky. In basketball, the name of Hy Grossman again comes up, for he is a bas- ketball player of no mean proportion. He did not star because he came at a time when there was no scarcity of good players. As a fighter, he has no equal. Among the splashers we have one of the best short-distance swimmers in the city, Wilbur Snable. He was captain of the team and won many a point for our tanksters. He was prevented from winning the city championship by a disqualification, when his bathing cap fell over his eyes, forcing him to go out of his lane. In baseball, we are again short in quantity, but high in quality. And what quality! The name of Frank Scudiery pops out again. He was the catcher and home-run king of our Sunstreaks. He made the News All-City Team in a year when good catchers were predominant. Also a letterman in baseball was Lenny Arnold, a capable managerf As to track, few South Siders missed the flaming red head of Harry Clif- ford running around the track for the half-mile. Red ran a mile for dear old South Side. Due to injuries, he missed placing in last year's City Meet. And so, as the athletic activities of the class of January, '39 is reviewed, the lights grow dim, and the stars of the past sink into the night and pave the way for new and brighter hopes to blossom.

The national society corresponds to the Phi Beta Kappa in the colleges. The honor society of South Side was organized in 1926 and became a chapter of the National Honor Society in 1930. Any 5A, 4B, or 4A who has maintained a high scholastic average, who has taken a vigorous part in activities, and who feels that his character is above reproach, may apply for membership. An application blank includes the student's grade, length of attendance in South Side, the names of his teachers, the number of testimonials he has earned, the number of times he has been on the honor roll, and a list of his activities. Teachers who know the student give their opinions concerning his qualifications and character. Witlm this information in mind, a committee of the faculty makes the decisions as to new members. A candidate must rank within the first quarter of his class, show initiative in his academic work, be of service to his home, school and community, and prove himself a leader of his fellow students. The principal aims of the society are to create an enthusiasm for scholar- ship, to stimulate a desire for service, to promote worthy leadership and to encourage the development of character. The president of the South Side chapter of the National Honor Society is Belle Walslm and Margaret Katz is secretary. Mrs. Bertha Parks Batt is the new and competent adviser of the Honor Society.

The president of the club is Bessie Mac- Georgeg Vice-President, Laurel Lacksg and Secretary, Betty Nester. The Presi- dent and Vice-President act as captains of the two teams which vie for highest standing. Individual competition is encouraged, so both team and member standing are important.

Page Fifty seven SENIOR OPTIMIST GOIN' TU SOUTH SIDE Did you ever go to South Side? That is really, truly, go? I don't mean just take up class space Or belong to the G. O. There's a different kind of going The kind some can't understand, If you, too, have 'gone' to South Side, Then I'll gladly shake your hand. Have you waited for that Wednesday When assembly would be held? Did you want to get together? Or were merely so compelled. Did you listen with some interest To announcements of the school? When asked to sing old Bingo,' Did you feel 'twas just a rule? Have you had the panicky feeling When you stood upon the stage And looked down upon the thousands Of our up and coming age? And then rejoiced that you had something Have you listened to poor speakers And yet given them a hand? Have you bought tickets to our dances, Felt South Side Night was grand? Have you turned down all engagements, For a South Side football game, Or haven't they impressed you? Have all others seemed the same? Would you switch to another high school If you had the chance, you know? Where they have a field and swimming pool Like where Tom and Mary go. Oh what's the use of all these questions You know what I'm driving at- Have you any South Side spirit? That's the subject of this chat. Be glad to be among us And be glad to do your part, Don't wait till graduation, As a freshman you must start. In common with that crowd- But if something has retarded You and they were part of South Side All those things you should have done, And you were so very proud. It just thrilled you and it chilled you When we stood 2,000 strong, On the stone floor of this building That had served thus, oh! so long Page Fifty-eight Why, begin this very moment, Do not miss the South Side fun! For despite all your complaining These four years just seemed to fly, They're the best years in one's lifetime Those spent here at South Side High! -Lillyan Epstein. .Jkwmoa SENIOR OPTIMIST Page Sixty SOUTH SlIDE'S TEN CONTMANDMENTS Put papers and scraps in the desk-it is too far to bother walking to the waste paper basket. Donlt do your homework-the teacher never collects it. Write and draw pictures on the walls-art is a wonderful thing. Don't study for exams-the teacher doesn't like you so she won't pass you anyway. Cut classes to go for a walk-exercise is good for you. Don't listen to the teacher-you know more than she does. Make noise in the assembly-the speakers are paid whether you listen or not. Don't go to the football games-the team can do just as well without you. Stick chewing gum on the seats so other students get it on their clothes. Don't hold the door open for the next person-he or she may not recover from the shock. 'WE QAN'T HAVE EVERYTHING We have a WOLF and also a BAER, We have a BERRY, but not a pear. We have a PALME, but we have no hand, We have a BRAVERMAN than 'ere was seen, We have a LAIC--O wherels the stream? We have a GROSS, no dozen have we, We have a LANT, but where's the sea? We have a SHAPOW, but have no hats We have a KITAY and also KATZ. We have no candle, but we have WAX, We have no cathartics, but we have ex-LACKS. We have a COLEMAN, but we lack coal We have ERANKS, but not on roll. We have a COYLE and also HERR, We have an ALBAUM, the stamps are rare. We have a SINGER, and what a voice! We have an ENJEIAN with lots of noise. We have a SCHOTT but have no gun, That is all, my tale is done. -R G JANUARY, 1939 MISS JANUARY '59 MR- JANUARY '59 Hair ,,...,.... ,- Miriam Zolotin Hair .-,,.....,...

JANUARY, 1939 U is for Ulesky, In Bio. and Chem. she shines. She'll be a Mme. Curie yet, And rank with the greater minds. V is for Vitality, Bronstein has much of this: Her dancing is a good example. What heavenly bliss! W is for Wolf, Dancing in her tights, She's famous for her acrobatics, Her name we'll see in lights. X is for the unknown quantity For which our class still stands. We wonder what we'll all be like After passing through time's hands. Y is for Yanowitz With an athlete's mind and heart, His ringers with a basketball Show that he does his part. Z is for Zwill, A lively gal she is. And as for annoying the teachers, By golly! She's a whiz! CONCERT fC01ztinuedf1'0m Page 10, disturbing. Her companion said, And to think that people have to pay to hear such good stuff, meaning to redeem himself in her eyes for an act he had foolishly committeed earlier in the evening. Filled with emotion, she whis- pered, Shut up! He sank back, hurt and angry- Oh, well, just moody, I'll fix her later . . , Near Althea was sitting a small, deformed man. He was sobbing, it seemed as though his heart were breaking. Althea watched him, compassion- ately. Herbert Simpson, oboe player, lost, asin a trance, came back to his earth- ly surroundings. The crowd rose and moved slowly towards the exit. Herbert Simpson sat-and once more began to think of the attack in Spain which he was leading. And then after the battle he saw his comrades about him, wound- ed. Was it possible for a man's brains to be lying on the filthy, stinking ground? He shuddered at the sight of a bayonet thrust into a man's adbomen -and he heard the shrieks of a million women and children. Shrapnel lay near a bloody body . . . Herbert Simpson walked from the stadium, prodded by a guard, but with a tortured mind . . . Couples had left the ampitheatre, thoughtful, impressed. They went to their homes, some of them hoping it would not be hot, some remembering the peaceful or thought-provoking few hours, others impatient to get home. The private tracer Bill Holmes had hired, sauntered out, well satisfied that he could at last make a definite report-with the aid of tiny camera shots. He spied a couple embracing in the shadows, and thought, Gee, if I had a shot like that it would mean more dough, and if I'm gonna get Sadie outta that knifin' jam, I'll need it! -Laurel M er! e Lacks.

Every 4A: I want to thank you for all I know. Every teacher: Don't mention it, it's only a trifle. A. Enjeian QAt football gamej: Just look at them all in the mud! How will they ever get clean? J. Dailey: Well, what do you suppose our scrub team's for? Amateurs have been so successful in the entertainment field that there is some talk of their invading college football. N. Cooperman: Yes, the doctor saved 'my life, but it cost me over 351,000 H. Kramer: O, Norm, such extravagance. He: Did you graduate from high school? She: No, I graduated from Weequahic. I. Markowitz: I want to know how long frankfurters should be cooked. M. Julius: The same as short ones. L. Arnold: How was the circus? M. Abramson: Beastly! Beastly! B. Walsh: Have you heard of the consumption of apples in California? B. Roth: My goodness! I didn't think they could catch it too. W. Franks: Is she talkative? W. Gavron: Is she talkative! Why she could start a report of jungle fever in Iceland. Teacher fto classj: When that person who is making a sap of himself is finished, I'll start. It was the FURST day of her vacation, and accompanied by I-IERR boy friend, a MECHANICK, she left for CAMPESI in WHITESIDE. At BASKERVILLE, they stopped at a roadside inn and ate some FRANKS and ice cream COHENS. They enjoyed the snack so much that they had MAHR. Reaching the spot, she said, This is a FEINBERG, it's not the RITZ, but real RUFF. We can FISCI-I and swim at the LAICO most DAILEYY Then they entered the house. A BROWN BAER, spying the SILVER- LIGHT in the window, made a ROOD entrance, and QSQHERMAN took his gun and SCHOTT the beast. She said, 'IYou're a real KILLMAN, a BRAVERMAN It have never seen.
