PRINCE STREET Thomas Norulak They're tearing down all the houses on Prince Street in that part of Newark where it wasn't any good for anyone's business unless he was a junk dealer or was just trying to make an honest buck off the people that he told his friends he didn't have anything against but I never hung around on Prince Street all I can remember of that was what my grandfather tells us about the good old days when a dollar bought more than it does now and you may ask how I know all this well you would too if you took the same bus as I do every morning along with the businessmen who wear striped ties button-down white shirts comb their hair to the left side parted on the right and the hat oh yes we musn't forget the hat most of them are bald come to think of it and they're tearing down the Rutledge Hotel on High Street which is the street that all the rich people used to live on but now they're all in Maplewood, or Millburn or some other suburban place where their children can grow up in a decent environment. Mommy, is this our floor? Not yet, only twelve more flights. Daddy, what does that sign say? Why, it says Here once stood the mansion of Gottfried Krueger! Yeah—Here once stood the mansion of so and so but all I can say is I'll be dammed if I have to live in one of those fourteen story apartments.

This can be attributed in part to the fact that a majority of the players were unexperienced sophomores at the time. Coach Lang, however, looking on the bright side, saw much natural talent in these boys' performances. This ability will be developed and for the next two years they will form the hard core of the group. Some of the outstanding players were: sophomores, Bruce Davis, Oswaldo Mercado, and Marvin Myers; juniors, Jerry Gimble, Ronald Brown and Howard Cushnir and senior, William Drennen.
