He is not a part of the school system, but he is verty intimately connected with the school system in general and with our school in particular. He is responsible for placing more boys in jobs than the school placement ofiicer. He has called our school to the attention of the most important men in the automobile industry. He has always been ready to drop his daily tasks and give up his time in the interests of our boys. He feels as proud of the Brooklyn High School of Automotive Trades as though it were his own. He is a leader in the automotive industry and a staunch friend of this school. We are grateful to him and, as a testimonial of our gratitude, we dedicate this annual publication to Mr. John F. Creamer, Chairman of the Automotive E ' Commission and President of Wheels, Incorporated. ducatlonal Y -2- .- ' . AN. . A, QV' '- 183 F.

My Dear Boys: I am very happy to extend to you my congratulations on the 1940 edition of the Headlight. We have had a most successful year and are, this term, sending out into industry the largest graduating class in the history of the school. It is not only the largest class, but I think it is also one of the finest classes we have ever had. I trust that after you have left us you will retain pleasant memories of your years at Brooklyn Automotive and that the things you have learned will he helpful to you in your chosen field. I urge you to keep ever before you the ideal of gentlemanly conduct to which you have clung so steadfastly While in school. The words MlVIanhood, Service, Labor. Citizenshipw should be so deeply engraved in your hearts that they will be reflected in your actions. Practice these virtues and you will be gentlemen in whom your teachers and parents will feel justifiable pride and in whose hands the future of American Democracy will he safe. -4,- H MR. EDWARD P. O'CONNOR ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT DR. GEORGE D. PARKHILL IN CHARGE OF ANNEX EDITOR'S NOTE On behalf of the Seniors I render our farewell address. Our four years were not spent in vain, for we have acquired the goal we have long sought. Some may feel happy, some feel sad, for they have long awaited this day but now it comes too soon. To us it is a sad event. Sad indeed to leave our alma mater which we have long upheld both spiritually and physically. The parting of the students from their associates brings a true trend of friendship to a finale. Soon we will travel the broad highways of life and, in our sorrow or in our happiness, I am sincerely certain we will turn back to our high school days and continue to maintain the standards we achieved through the guidance and friendliness of both Mr. Pigott and Mr. O'Connor and the teachers who deserve complete credit for their upholding of truth and honor. As a parting gesture the Seniors leave this publication as a record of summary. lt will ever be for them an album of happy memories-one to which they will frequently refer to refresh their thoughts when the joyful and happy experience of four pleasant years are to be recalled. Thanks must be attributed to many people for the successful publication of this book. They are Mr. Pigott, our beloved principal, Mr. O'Connor, Mr. Tedford, Dr. Parkhill, Mr. Brereton of the annex, Mr. Corey, Mr. McNelis, Mr. Feiser, Mr. Nealis, Miss Buck, Mr. Ahearn, Mr. Cunningham, and Mr. Holub, our faculty advisor. Thanks for their assistance in photog- raphy are due Mr. Kasten, Dr. Parkhill, and the Arthur Studios. Also sincere appreciation must be expressed to the faculty, the student body, advertisers and all those who in any way aided in publishing this book.

He loved flowers, gardens, and practically all forms of botany. They laughed when he spoke of his hobby. But pride was a cold garment and he held it close. Today, he hummed a little tune as he weeded his garden. Suddenly he looked up and saw his partner-in-time, Art Parker, coming toward him. Parker was as crazy about painting as Cotter was about flowers. Hi, Hank, he said, Got some good news here. He indicated a letter he held in his hand. What is it? Cotter asked. Well, remember I sent some paintings to a contest about a month ago? Well, I won! Yup! won a free trip to Paris to study artln Q Gee, that's swell! Cotter remarked. 66 Imagine me winning a contest, Art continued. I never had any luck before and this is a fine time to get some. Well, Henry said, you got to get it some time. Yeah, but I wish it had come five years ago. Or five years from nowll' Henry retorted. 'SI sure got something I can't use! Parker explained. Wait'll the boys hear about this, it'1l panic 'em.'-' Yes, I suppose it will,,' Henrysaid as he absentmindedly plucked a weed. , 1 . I guess they recognize talent sometimes, don't they? Parker queried. Yes, I suppose, Henry answered as he rooted out another weed. Suddenly a shrill whistle sounded from somewhere behind them. Let's eat, Parker said.

FRANK ABBY 'IBD The Autobiography of an Automobile When I was first assembled, I was so handsome and newg No one could deny that I presented an impressing view. It was with pomp and splendor that I was put on sale, And now with great sorrow began my life's woeful tale. A wealthy couple bought me and treated me wonderfully wellg I lived in a private garage and the care I received was aswell. I responded to them faithfully, trying so hard to please, But as time passed and I was 'dated', their admiration began to cease. They sold me to a family that could give me little care. I was kept in an open lot and soon began to wearg I served them long and faithfully-a utoughi' time I went through, My motor went so bad they had to sell me, too. A youth bought me and tore my body from my soulg Reckless, careless--his abuse soon took its wonted toll, I could hardly go for I was worn and mighty thin, Then came my destiny-Junkyard-and nothing else but Lin.

'BN sc:-1ooL A.Russo E. ouvsn CAREFUL Say, haven't you loafers put in that rear axle in my car yet? stormed Boss Carter, owner of the Carter Careful Automotive Service. We haven't had the chance, Boss, replied the foreman. You told us to drop everything and work on those three rush jobs that came in. That's right, but even a mechanic ought to know that a job like that takes no time at all to do, and, besides, I need the car to go to the bank and get the payroll. Well, Carterisighed, now that I'm here, I might as well do the job myself. I guess wearing a white collar didn't detract so much from my mechanical intellect that I can't install a rear axle and wheel. You're still tops, Boss, complimented the foreman. You didn't get the reputation for the most careful mechanic in the trade for nothing. Yes. replied Boss Carter as he gazed fondly over his large and modernistic garage, I built this place up from a 'one horse joint' to the largest and most dependable garage in town, all through being careful. In all the years that I've been in this business, a car never fell apart due to carelessness on my part, and I expect all my employees to be just as careful or else-. You can trace many accidents back to carelessness on a mechanic's part. The thing that I see 'red' on is when some dumb mechanic forgets to put on a cotter pin when it's needed, fumed Carter as he finished tightening the nut on the rear wheel. The day that you find me being guilty of a thing like that, I'll double the day's pay. Which reminds me, the bank will close in ten minutes, so I better hurry and get your pay. Thatis one thing you surely wouldn't want meato be careless aboutf, he laughed, as he rode away. A little pep talk like that never hurt anyone, Carter thought as he collected the payroll and headed back for the garage. As he approached the garage he had a curious feeling as though he had forgotten something. Rack his brains, as he would, he could not remember what it was. That was why he didn't notice the two figures that sinisterly aproached him as he was getting out of the car. Suddenly, Carter felt as if the universe had exploded in his head. He felt the payroll being snatched from his handsg he heard the roar of his powerful car pulling away at full speed and his last thought before complete darkness overtook him was what he had forgotten. You'll be all right, said a far-away voice as his senses began to collect. Carter shook his head and observed an ambulance doctor, the police, and his foreman gathered around him in his ofiice. The doctor continued, All you need is a good night's sleep and you'll be as good as ever. You're a lot better off than those two crooks who 'conked' you and stole the payroll and your car, voiced the foreman. What do you mean? asked Carter. I'll tell you, said a husky motorcycle cop who was standing near by. 6'The boys and I gave chase and just as they seemed to be getting away at breakneck speed, the rear wheel came off and they cracked into a tree. They both got killed but we recovered the payrollf' concluded the cop. The car is smashed pretty bad, said the foreman, but I guess the insurance will cover that. What's the matter, boss, inquired the foreman as he noticed a look of despair creep over Carter's face. Ain't you glad? How can I be, wailed Boss Carter, I just remembered what I had forgotten to do on the job. I did the first careless thing in my career. You can tell the em- ployees they get double the day's pay. Carter looked as if he was going to say something that would give his life away. The reason that the rear wheel came off, he faltered, was . . . I forgot to put a cotter pin in it.

Theiltime is exactly 3:00 A.M. The milkmen have just left their milk at the foot of each row and the bakeries will soon deliver bread and rolls. y , 0utlets have been installed under each seat and anyone having an electric razor may shave. Many people have brought their own food and a few have brought portable electric stoves which are now beingiput to a good use. The aroma of food is rapidly spreading over the stands and the place is beginning to smell like a huge dining room. The scene before our eyes brings back memories of prohibition days. Wives are trying to drag their husbands home and husbands are trying to drag their wives home. There are many children walking about crying for their mothers or fathers or both. The Missing Persons Bureau is also here looking for some missing persons. Oh! yes, the bike race! Well, it's like this. Nobody's ahead, nobody's behind, they're all pedalling around abreast of each other, Three men in the audience had been trying to race the cyclers by running around the stands. They have collapsed and are now being carried out on stgretchers to the ambulances which are waiting outside. Another spectator just slipped on some spaghetti and he is also being carried out. The audieags' is watching this parade with much amusement. Some are even asking what. happened, but no one seems to know or care.

He dreams heis a knight, so gallant and bold, As he sits by his fireplace away from the cold, She's really divine, with deep chestnut hair, Her eyes are of hazel, she's wondrous and fair. I guess all men in their dreams see a queen, I call my queen by her first name, Eileen 'ISP VUE PRAY FOR PEACE fMake ready for warj By ALEX JOHNSON-V13 Gossip! Rumors! On some foreign shore, Make planes! Make guns! Get set for war, Battleships! Bombs! Make more and more, We pray for peace, make ready for war! And all the while, a mother prays, That war won't break for a few more days, She wants her sons close by her side, She remembers the last one where three died. The children play at war in the streets, A brave one charges! The enemy he meets, They play at war, and hope, someday A lively war will come their way. But in those streets, in a few more years, Is spilled their blood and a mother's tears, Yes, the bugles have blown! Bombs have burst! And an applecart plays the part of a hearse. We hate it so much, but even so, We make bombs and planes, war seeds we sow! Because of events on some foreign shore, We pray for peace, make ready for war. -36- NINSPIRATION, PLEASE! t By BILL HECHT I see you in the azure skyg I see you as the days fade and die. From dawn to dusk each moment I measure To get back home to my priceless treasure. For you mean all the world to me. Youire more precious than sky or sea. If I come home and you're not there, My thoughts are filled with sad despair- You are my inspiration in everything I dog My each and every task is done solely but for you. The stars reflect your glory, the sun reflects your fame Yet in the minds of others you're nothing but a name, In this foolish heart of mine You're everything that's good and fine- You're marvelous, wonderful, great, and grand And when I gladly take you in my hand And my lips wistfully ache you to receive, Beautiful thoughts flash through my mind, thoughts you can't So from the silence of the morning to the lonely evening hush It's only you I think about, my precious bowl of mush. 'IBD AN IMAGINATIVE DREAM By FRANK ABBY As I Watch the bright rising sun, My thoughts begin to run. They are pleasing and pure As the morning's first drop of dew. They seem to wander far As the sun in Phaeton's car. I think of places and things Which the seeking spirit brings. But there is one thing it can never give And that is the power of being imaginative. -37- conceive BLUE AND GOLD-ALMA MATER By SAL MONACO We all love the blue and gold. It's honor we,ll uphold.

And though we someday must part, Youlre imprinted in each heart. Days left behind, Will come to mind, To dispel our every care.

The bedlam of noises and turning wheels, Of gurgling voices stopping mealsg A wrench, a nut, screws and a scale, All mingle together in onrushing gale. Thus all through the night and on to the day Those harrowing thoughts in the toiler's mind stay. These busy minds, no palace met No dreams of mosque or minaret. -38- I VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAM I CITY VOCATIONAL CHAMPIONS 1939-40 Captain, WILLIAM SCHENCK Manager, EDWARD WHITE Coach, JAMES S.

The Blue and Gold functioned smoothly in the opening minutes of the game and forged ahead to an early lead. At half-time the score was 21 to 10. Compers then put on a rush in the second half to draw within breathing space of our boys. However. Automotive had the reserve power to withstand its opponents and their sensational set shots. ,lust as matters shaped up darkly the Blue and Gold basketeers pulled themselves together and. with resolute determination and coolness. matched the Bronx boys point for point. With the enthusiastic support of our cheer leaders and fifteen hundred student supporters. the boys finally went on to win the game to close another successful chapter in our sports annals. Bill Schenck led the team in scoring, averaging 14 points per game. Ben Schwartz developed into one of the best shots on the team, Carmine Chiusano was a tower of strength under the basket and Bill Kelly, Leroy Cause and Frank Carnavale played splendid defensive games in addition to scoring their share of points. Prospects for next season are very bright as only three men. Schenck. Kelly and Cause. will be lost by grad- uation. -41- ..,..,....,.. , at .....--4--l f if may A 3-1 le 5541? Q, ,sis 6 l 3 .

Automotive handed Iiast New York Vocational a 5 to 0 defeat and also took Queens Vocational into camp by a score of 4 to 1. At the present writing, two matches remain on the sched- ule, namely, the ones with Jamaica Vocational and Bishop Laughlin High School.

Despite the lack. of seasoned veterans, our team started the season with plenty of fight and hustle and played heads up hall in every contest. Automotive defeated Lafayette H. S. 9 to 6 in its opening game and went on to take Queens Vocational 3 to 1, Manual Training H. S. 2 to 1, Queens Vocational 3 to 1. East New York Vocational 8 to 0, Industrial Arts H. S. 4 to I, Manhattan Aviation H. S. 8 to 2 and Curtis H. S. 5 to 4. At the present writing, Automotive is pacing the vocational league with 4 wins and 0 losses. Chief credit for the showing that our ball club is making goes to captain Tony Tamburo for his hitting and handling of pitchers and to Phil Cardinale, first string hurler who has averaged two strike outs per inning pitched to date. Both Howie Sutschek and Herb Glass have tossed good ball and the infield and outfield have backed up their pitchers in splendid fashion. Prospects for next season are very good as only Tamburo, Sutschek and McLaugh- lin will be lost by graduation. -45- GENERAL ORGANIZATION Faculty Advisor-JAMES S. TEDFORD The General Organization of the Brooklyn High School of Automotive Trades was started six years ago when we were in the school in Boerum Street. The first term we had less than one hundred members. We have grown from that small start to an organization which listed over two thousand members on its membership roll this past term. ' Our G. O. is a real live organization which endeavors to do everything in its power to benefit the students of our school in every activity. We feel safe in saying that there isn't a student in our school who hasn,t profited very materially through our G. O. The General Organization has secured equipment for our health education classes. it has promoted inter-class activities and provided the awards. it has arranged for social activities and has equipped all of our teams in such a manner that we can all be justly proud of the appearance which they make. Every club in our school has been assisted in some way by the G. O. It has provided numerous types of activities, ranging from checkers and ping pong to basketball. In addition. members of our G. O. are able to secure at either reduced rates or without charge tickets for various sporting and non-sporting events. Motion pictures such as the baseball picture, released by the National League, M1936 Olym- picsv, etc., were obtained through our General Organization. In closing, may we add that the G. O. is deserving of the whole-hearted moral and financial support of every student. Following is a list of classes who reached the 100W mark: T- 3-MR. SHAPIRO T-18-MR. PELI, V-18-Mu.

This monthly publieation is only three terms old and thus far has only been mimeo- graphed. Nevertheless. the calibre has always been of ex- vellent quality. lt has been thoroughly informative on all pertinent sc-hool news. At present, the staff is looking forward to inangurating a printed sehool newspaper. Klueh credit must be given to the Spark l'lug's faculty adxiser. Nlr. Wleiland. who has been ever a souree of en- 4-ouragement to the stall. The editor-in-Chief for the fall term was Sal Nlonaeo and for the spring term, Arnold Xrbitter.

Rouiiirr Nlrzyizn In Oetober Mr. Meyer ealled a few members of upper classes to start an organization to probe further into the mysteries of mathematies. First. the slide rule was the objert of study. The huge slide rule in the pieture was used for demonstration purposes. The students lstrange as it may seem to youl then started on algebra, eontinued on with work on brake horse power, and hnally pursued the inter- esting study of the dynamometer. Thus we can see that the Nlathematies Cflub has been sm-1-essful in its poliey to teaeh more mathematies to those who are interested. Members are: G. Ferrigno. H. Albreeht, l.. Tolehinsky. J.

RADIO GUILD Nlr. l'igott and Nlr. Uillonnor can eontaet all the rooms or any of the individual rooms of our sehool by the simple deviee of our loudspeaker system. lt did not take Mr. flun- ningham long to eapitalize on this fat-t in utilizing our system for the benefit of the students. In eonsequenee, he organized the Radio Guild. With this group he inaugurated his series of ll-roadrasts by first bro- duoing a sketrh entitled Braddoc'k's Defeat. lfaeh of his broadeasts has the primary purpose of eorreet dietion, miero- phone technique and eonridenee. The important episode of the year took plaee on May ll of this term when the group suef-essfully handled the radio broadeast of the weekly sehool program from the studios of The Brooklyn Teehnieal High Sehool. The radio seript of this program was written by Mr. Cunningham and Mr. A. Wilner. The members of the program were: B. Freehtman, F. Lindemann, E. Hoyt. A. Seotto, N. J. Peteti, J. Todres, S. Vares.

Under his leadership our school orchestra performed some good work at the Assembly Nlnsic Program and at the Graduation exercises. Members of the orchestra are: Anthony Catanese. Kenneth Little, Lawrence Cooper, Rosario Piazza, living Jordan, Ted Stool, Roy wiick- lund, Silvan Ten, Harold Hubbard, Anthony Russo, lfdward Greaves, and I. Sorrentino. ' Moreover. there was another Smaller group from the above boys who constituted the four Hats. a swing quartette, which performed brilliantly at the Varsity Minstrel late in May. They were: Lawrenre Cooper-Trumpet, lrving Jordan - Piano, Roy Wicklund - Guitar, and I. Sorrentino - Clarinet. THE PAN AMERICAN CLUB The Pan American Club, which was newly organized this term under the guidance of Mr. Kaiser, has found a great deal to arouse interest in our Latin American neighbors. The members of the club have begun to realize the impor- tance of the countries to the south of us at this particular time of crisis abroad. On April 14, 1940, the fiftieth anniversary of the Pan American Union, the club arranged and broadcast over our public address system an interesting and timely program of little known facts about our neighbors of the Western Hemisphere. Club meetings have been planned for reports and discussions on the coins, stamps, and customs of the Latin American nations. Members are: J. Kirwain, Presidcntg N. Fico, Vice-l'resi- dent: S.

TEDFORD The Varsity A Club was organized in June, 1935 and is composed of students who have been awarded their varsity letter for competing on our schoolls teams. The thought in mind in forming this club was to promote school spirit and to create among the wearers of the school letter a spirit of good fellowship. Each month a letter is sent to each former student who won his insignia. advis- ing him of the various athletic and social activities of the school and inviting him to join us. The response to these lettersvhas far exceeded our fondest expectations. A large number of our former students attend our night basketball games and dances, and these boys and girls are responsible, to a great extent. for the success of the games and dances. ' 'IBD ALUMNI ASSOCIATION For the past several years serious consideration has been given to the organiza- tion of an Automotive Alumni Association. Up to now the element of time has been an inconveniencing factor. However, hopes are held that the organization will be established next fall and will then start its program of activities. The nature of the activities .will be both social and athletic. We plan to secure the use of the school gymnasium two nights a week and conduct a regular program of basketball, volley ball, indoor baseball, etc. In addition, we'd like to organize a track team and basketball team to represent the Alumni Association and to have regularly scheduled games and dances. A The activities of the association would of necessity be closed to members of the organization. In order to make our dream come true it will be necessary to enroll quite a large group in the Alumni Association. If you are interested in the formation of such an association as described above which will provide worthwhile leisure time activities for former members' of our school, boost the organization the next time that you meet a graduate of our school. Letters will be sent to all former graduates early next term with complete details about the Alumni Association. -52- 1 .v dm..:. FIELD ll!-lY SECOND ANNUAL TRACK AND me A ' FIELD MEET Our school held its Second Annual Track and Field Meet at McCarren Park on Tuesday afternoon, May 7th, Thirteen vocational high schools entered 370 competitors in the ten events on the pro- gram and the contests were witnessed by over 1200 spec- tators. Since this was only the second meet to be held by our school, it was certainly a most successful event and served as a credit to our school. Conspicuous for the efficient and able management of this popular growing meet was Mr. James Tedford who spent many an hour to see that all details for the meet were provided. For the second year in a row, Coach Babe Scheuer's Bronx Vocational High School's track team ran off with the point trophy by gathering a total of 50V2 points.
