THE CLASS OF JANUARY, 1940 ★ BARRINGER HIGH SCHOOL ★ THE ATHENAEUM DEDICATION Your faith in us has made possible a great adventure. In grateful appre- ciation, we affectionately dedicate this Athenaeum'' to you, Our Parents In extending to you a cordial wel- come, we are confident that under your inspiring and capable leadership Barringer will continue to enjoy her traditional role in the community and in secondary education. In wishing you the happiness so richly merited by a lifetime of serv- ice devoted to the education of young people, we express the esteem and appreciation of the students and faculty of Barringer. RAYMOND B. GURLEY ELSA DISBROW JOSEPH M. CELIANO HOME ROOM TEACHERS VALENTINA M. CIPOLLETTI HARVEY M. DANN GERTRUDE KRUESSEL EDITORIAL As graduation draws near and we prepare to step out into life we look toward the future with varying degrees of eagerness and apprehension. Upon becoming self- sufficient many persons believe that a break in the family ties is positive and perhaps necessary. That theory is an obviously inexperienced one for when they are out in the world trying to achieve this self-sufficiency they discover that the family is needed and appreciated more than ever before. The home and family circle form a definite nucleus in every individual's life. When all is said and done it is the home to which one instinctively turns when trouble or per- haps just simple weariness besets him. It is only within the family circle that we may relax and know that we can be absolutely natural. From time immemorial it has been the home that has made life worth living. Man's determined struggles against Nature's superior odds were all to make and keep his home safe. Then as he progressed he sought out and developed methods to im- prove and better it. In saying that the home is the background of all civilization it is probable that the speaker had in mind the possibility that Nature and her great superior forces could have cowed man from the beginning had it not been for the persistence his home instilled in him. Beyond general comprehension is the great influence our family circle and home actually have upon us. All our opinions, ways of thinking and philosophizing on the world at large are due to something imbedded in our minds from infancy. Realizing the quantity of mental and spiritual wealth we have derived from our home, our own part in that establishment becomes clear. As we ourselves develop and cultivate new ideas, opinions and philosophies we should bring them home and. in turn, share them with the family as they have shared theirs with us. Indeed, many of the conditions and problems facing the human race today cause us to hesitate and try to avoid unpleasant realities. Since this, of course, cannot be done, every man. woman and child needs a haven where he can be encouraged and reassured that the beautiful things in life do still exist and flourish in this, perhaps ever so humble place —home.

Chairman LAWRENCE CRANDELL GRACE DiMAGGIO MARIE DiVINCENZO ALBERT HILL AUDREY LEE DANIEL LONGHI GRACE LULAND CAROL PERRY ANGELA SALVATORE NANCY SQUIRE ANN WALRATH FLORENCE WITTENBERG FROM A SENIOR'S DIARY February 8. 1936: First week at Barringer has finally come and gone. Schedule fine— Don’t get up until 11 o'clock—Whatta life!—and after the 7th period, the school is practically all ours. But it’s a pretty big place and the room numbers are peculiar to say the least. April 9, 1937: Have morning classes now. The new freshies are terribly small and childish. Glad there are two sessions. March 24. 1938: Tried out for Assistant-Editorship of Acropolis but June Beck got it. But who am I to begrudge her that pleasure! June 13: Saw the Domestic Science teacher today. She said she was sorry I hadn't continued cooking but I thought my cooking was sorry enough as it was. so I quit. Someone in the class has heard from one of the French boys we met on a trip to the S. S. Paris with Mme. Carleu. Every girl in the class has read the letter. Was mentioned in the Periscope this month—I rated three lines. September 16: 3A's have organized. Results—Biunno, President; Roy. Vice-President: Fleming. Secretary: Marinello. Treasurer. October 3: Officiated at a Latin Honor Society meeting Wednesday because neither consul was present (I didn't shanghai them!). November 19: National Honor's new members mounted the platform recently in auditorium. I remained in the pit this time, but next term watch my dust! December 16: Today the dance committees were organized. The decoration committee had a two-hour meeting to begin with. I can see where I'll have an acute case of breathlessness from inflating balloons—or crepe paper on the brain. January 28: Last night our Winter Carnival was presented in a transformed gym. The weather was very cooperative—it snowed to celebrate the event. Blue Jackets were a monstrous success in this initial appearance. April 20. 1939: Our blue and white pencils are proving happily popular. We have the Spring Fiesta and the 4B-4A Promenade in the offing this term. Our over- joyed (?) advisers are Mrs. Burke and Mr. Celiano. June 18: Officers for next term are Biunno (as ever) President: Molinari, Vice-President; Fleming (still) Secretary: Marinello (yet) Treasurer. Am looking forward to vaca- tion although it will be the last summer one from B. H. S. September 25: Everybody has overnight bags under the eyes and is fog-brained— could it be that yearbook? We miss Mr. Gurley who is now retired, but we are becoming accustomed to seeing Mr. McGreal around and we like him a lot. October 16: My proofs came today. Hideous! They don't look a bit like me but my friends think they're flattering. Another thing. I had to make a down payment on my ring but it's worth it—150 seniors can't be wrong. October 30: Am recovering by degrees from our Hallowe'en Hop of Friday last. Wonderful time. November: Tryouts for Class Day—exhaustive—but we are unearthing some hidden talent (and I do mean hidden). January: The glorious, awaited, sad. regretted night arrived finally—have my diploma, a little more knowledge and loads of memories. Pago Forty PROPHECY Here we are at the end of the first half of the annual game between Barringer and East Orange. So far it has been a close battle with the Big Blues putting their all into every play. Only crystal gazer. Harry Chadwick, knows what the outcome of this game of 1950 will be. Relaxing a moment we see many familiar faces: near us are seated Mr. and Mrs. Frank Tortoriello (the former Leah Megaro) and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Greason (the former Nancy Squire) proudly exhibiting Robert's most recent scientific creations to Robert Baird who has iust laid the cornerstone of the Baird Dairy. Our attention is now riveted to a group of female autograph hounds. In the middle of this delightful gather- ing we discover Bill Piggott, current matinee idol. Standing near by admiring his golden tresses are Adele Schiller, famed hair stylist, and her assistants. Charles Trumper and Lena Girgenti. With them is Jane Gaitenby whose latest masterpiece is being exhibited at the Art Gallery. Near this group are Josephine D'Asta. famed editor for Mademoiselle and officers of the D. A. R.: Ruth Flemming. President: Doris Wohl. Vice-President; Marian Beamer, Secretary, and Vera Corona. Treasurer. Flash! Just some more photographers!

Eugenia Hladky. accompanied by Salvatore lannuzzi. ballroom instructor, and Alfred Padilla, rhumba dancer at the Trocadero. The Big Blues pose patiently while Irving Bachelor paints a portrait. The Silent Heroes . We now turn to the world famous chemist. James Davis, barely recognizable due to the swaths of gauze encircling his head. He is attended by a nursing corps consist- ing of Josephine Foggio. Grace DiMaggio, Alice Pritchard and Muriel Krayl.

Joseph Klockner. Republican candidate for 1951. is accompanied by Frank Zar- rillo. campaign manager. His adversary is Alfred Rosamilia. The blare of a portable radio arouses us and we find Florence Wittenberg. Mar- garet Ameling and Ann Walrath still listening to Les Brown. Carol Perry, Ph.D., is with them. Among other charming alumnae is Mabel Sykes, famous model with Dorothy Gialanella, her dressmaker. Donn Roy. Alfonse Russomanno. Benny Mastropoalo and Robert Tortoriello are escorting several elderly ladies. The fellows are employees of an Escort Bureau, a profitable enterprise operated by Amerigo Burruano. On the left, causing a disturbance, we distinguish John Brady and Michael Monetti making speeches against those famous capitalists. Joseph Grasso and Alex Restaino. A squad of police, including Joseph Vecchione. Orlando Zecchino. George Leech and Gus Mattia. headed by Captain Vincent Ricigliano rushes up to stop the noise. We also observe in this huge group Paul Sexton, A P manager. Paul says that two of his best selling products are Tilver Tup Bread , advertised by Albert Hill, the Lone Ranger, and Alan Kent's new hot dog creation. Other notable persons here are Matty Colonna and Robert Franz, foreman of the W.P.A. Still having a serious consultation over a last period’s injury are two bearded gentlemen. As they turn toward us we recognize Frank Molinari. dentist, his assistant Marie DiVincenzo and Frank Angelacci, horse doctor.

Speaking of celebrities, we hear that John Tunis has just won the Shmaltz Medal for the great discovery of the year, raising fried chicken. There’s silent Joe LaFera. He has recently been chosen best dressed man in America. Among other silent exotics here are Marie Galante, Dorothy Gilby and Vic- toria Gialanella who are giving stiff competition to Hedy La Marr. They are in the company of the Human Sphinxes Peter Muscio and Ray Carroll. Roars of laughter attract us to Jerry Condurso and Belle Firtel. understudies for Burns and Allen. With them is that gem. Edythe Brown and her pal. Frances Banks. That grand comedienne. Betty Chin, is there too. still trucking with the masses at McKinley’s. Page Forty-two Ruth Sprich.

Page Forty-threo POETRY GREENWICH VILLAGE All races mingling. Coins gaily jingling. While vendors and swindlers Try catching the eye. The trains pass a-clacking. The music ne’er slacking. As youngsters and oldsters Go shuffling by. The rooms all are reeking With smoke that is streaking To bright-colored heavens, This man-lighted sky. Each horn is loud-tooting. And pickpockets looting Their victims who gaze at The wonders on high. Odd artists keep drawing. The crowd, pictures pawing. Are happy, or pensive— Or flirting so sly. An evening's a peach there. You’re let off the leash there, With dancing, romancing— 'Till dawn lights the sky. —Jane Gaitenby. COUNTRY-SIDE On soft, verdant moss— Or dry. heat-parched, pebbly roads: Beneath young birches. Dainty laurel and hallowed elms: Beside drowsy pastures— Or storm-darkened white farmhouses With bright hay-smelling barns— I walk. Do men still crowd the city streets? —Jane Gaitenby. HARVEST Harvesters sweep thru a sea of wheat Like a restless breeze In the summer heat. Ripened grain in a golden mound To be threshed and stamped On the hard, dry ground. Men thresh the grain with a hearty laugh And the sunlight gleams On a mist of chaff. Then at the end of the harvest trail. They all give thanks As the day wanes pale. —Anne Bossert. STAUNCH Sail ing over the wind blown sea— Over the waves just you and me. Feeling the salt spray upon our bow— I the Skipper and you the Scow: The years have been slowly marching on— To dear old Davy.—you've solemnly gone. I too.—have silently passed away— As the setting sun. at the end of day: But should drifting waves e’er touch your bow— I'll still be Skipper, and you the scow. —Russell H. Lewis. SEAWORTHY The boat rolls high to a darkened sky— And beats the waves to a powdered foam. The boat bows low to a weaving sea— And catches the wind with masts full three. Yet deigns not think of turning home. —Russell H. Lewis. Pa 3« Forty-four MOUNTAIN SCENE COLOR JAZZ (With apologies to Carl Sandburg) White and red lights. Green and blue ones too.

Softly come the tom-tom beats again Through the velvet night. —Grace Luland. Over around and up and down the mountain ridges go— From their top-most peaks on high the torrent rivers flow. On their ever beaming faces lit by sunset low— Is found the deep black darkest soil where tall cool hemlocks grow; Beneath the trees are seen and heard birds singing softlv there— And weaving through the emerald leaves. a golden breeze so rare. But curtains of dusk are falling now for time has passed away— And Nature with her love and beauty will return at the break of day. —Russell H. Lewis. RENDEZVOUS WITH A STAR Through softest still of summer night Across a velvet sky. A falling star—a trail of light, A saddened lover’s sigh. From unkissed lips, a wish—a dream For someone far away. A wish upon an opal beam Love’s faith will not betray. To soothe a lonely lover’s heart. A falling star—a kiss. For those too many miles apart A falling star means bliss. —Grace Luland.

So successful was their debut that other classes followed suit by engaging them. Under the direction of Mr. Weiss the orchestra is improving steadily and ac- quiring a sizeable repertoire. BAND The band is probably most appreci- ated by the student body for its rousing marches and other stirring pieces at the football games.

Baseball FOOTBALL Football in Barringer plays a dual role for. besides providing many thrilling Sat- urday afternoons, it must support finan- cially all other sports. All this means many hours of practice under the expert guidance of Coach Victor Salerno as- sisted by Mr. Charles Allen. One of the highlights of every season is the tradi- tional Thanksgiving Day game between Barringer and East Orange. This year marked the forty-third contest between the two schools, one of the oldest rival- ries in schoolboy games. As is the cus- tom. the members of former teams of both schools met on the eve of the game for their annual banquet, an occasion almost as important as the game itself for it demonstrates the spirit of good fel- lowship maintained by both schools. Football is. of course, the major sport of Barringer.

SENIORS Anne Bossert Ursula Celentano Marie DiVincenzo Grace Luland Angela Salvatore TENNIS Members of the Big Blue tennis squad had a very successful season last year in which they won nine games and lost three. Two of the most impressive vic- tories occurred in the games against Bloomfield High and Paterson. East Side High. Since all of the team members were inexperienced, we think great credit is due them for their diligent practice and Mr. Buchanan for his patient coach- ing. CAPTAIN Jack Apgar MANAGER James Kevlin TRACK Few teams in the country can match the phenomenal record of the Barringer Track team: few classes can boast a Ray Speer. Captain of the 1939 State Championship Team, city champion in the 220-yard dash, member of 1939 quarter-mile relay team that won the championship of America and member of 1939 State championship mile relay which went to the Penn meet. Close on his heels is George Rogers who won his major ‘B back in 1937 and has since added his Wreath B for State cham- pionship rank. These stars will not easily be replaced. CAPTAIN Ray Speer COACHES Mr. Salerno, Mr. Hofer SENIORS Philip Goldhammer George Rogers Ray Speer CROSS COUNTRY During the fall, cross-country takes the place of track. In cross-country meets a dis ance of two and one-half miles is run requiring much stamina on the part of the runner. Again we find Ray Speer starring.

The auditorium is much nicer than the one in grammer school. (The plaster sticks to the walls.) September 14, 1936—Slept until noon ... a good way to get an educa- cation. My home room teacher is Mr. Pritchard, a very alarming man. The others in my class seem quite stupid. September 1 5, 1936—A boy named Meier brought a brief case which he immediately lost. October 19, 1936—Got my first report card. I m glad D is passing in this school. November 4,1936—Roosevelt elected . . . Alas for us Republicans! November 26, 1936—Barringer-East Orange football game. Freshmen sang the Alma Mater, reading the words from typewritten sheets. Barringer won 6-0. I was on my way home when we made the touchdown in the last minute of play. May 20, 1937—Dialogue in Health class . . . Teacher— What does a meal of meat and potatoes lack?” Ray Nichols— Gravy.” September 13, 1937—Hurrah! We’re in the morning session now! November 25, 1937—After we had spent a chilly hour watching Bar- ringer battle East Orange High, the game ended with a scoreless tie. February 1, 2, 3, 1938—Haunted the office. Had my schedule changed six times. April 6, 1938—It snowed today. Case of mistaken identity or something. April 27, 1938—There was a long procession in front of the school . . . Prelude to a ceremony in Sacred Heart Cathedral. We were excused from our classes and all Barringer lined up on the curb. I saw my first celebrity, Alfred E. Smith, but he wasn’t wearing a brown derby. September 12, 1938—School Days! School Days! Here for ten months more! September 14, 1938—Came to school feeling very saintly because I had done all my homework. August Meier lost his brief case and found it in the wastebasket. October 13, 1938—Established a precedent by having two fire drills in one day. (This is Fire Prevention Week.) November 17, 1938—Went to the Centennial Cavalcade” . . . A splen- did review of one hundred years of Barringer. November 21, 1938—The Centennial Cavalcade” is a thing of the past. No more getting excused from classes to paint scenery, rehearse, or help here and there. The class room doors are all closed now, and the password isn’t Centennial Play” any more. I guess we won’t have so much freedom again for another hundred years. November 24, 1938—Very unsatisfactory Thanksgiving game. (We lost 6-13.) March 22, 1939—Scene . . . Algebra Class (Lesson on graphs). Mr. Prit- Ps tf Fifty-six chard— Louise, if I say X equals zero, what does that mean to you.' Miss Lyon— It means that there’s nothing there. June 12, 1939—Mr. Bruder and Mrs. Dill are our faculty advisers. Our class is going to be a true democracy. June 16 1939—The 3A’s held a FREE dance! (Mr. Bruder’s democratic principles are bubbling already) . . . Although only Barringer.tes were invited, I saw some extremely elderly high school students. September 1 1, 1939—School again! . . . What a thrill! Mr. McGreal is our new principal. We like him. September 13, 1939—August Meier lost his brief case and flute . . . (Double-feature this time.) September 19, 1939—First chem experiment. Broke things, to say the least! . October 9, 1939—Found out what my English teacher does in her spare time. Startled Miss Jones while she was trying to learn how to eat monkey nuts. Crack, Crunch, Squash, Darn!” October 16, 1939—Report cards . . . Chemistry, it seems, is more than the cheerful sound of breaking test tubes. October 17, 1939—The 4B’s are selling rabbits’ feet (uncured). Mine is moulting already. November 23, 1939—(President Roosevelt’s Thanksgiving). We lost 14-0. Next Thursday might have been a luckier day for Barringer (at least in football.) December 22, 1939—Went to the 4B-4A Basketball Game. We won (Super Athletes that we are!). January 2, 1940—Ice skating today. All Barringer was learning to fall gracefully. January 12, 1940—Today in auditorium we took the 4A seats, and George accepted the cap and gown. 4B-4A reception in the evening. Super abundance of males. January 31, 1940—I’m a 4A now, commencing the Last Mile. Ice skat- ing very slushy today. February 5, 1940—Mrs. Dill is in charge of the year book. Now we have an alibi for getting out of our seventh period classes. February 14, 1940—Waded through the blizzard to have my year book pictures taken. Dis- tinctly heard something crack in the camera when photographer took the first picture. February 15, 1940—We received testimonials. After four years of suffering from the mo- mentary absence of his brief case, August decided to play safe and arrived on the platform carrying it. March 4, 1940—Mrs. Dill was absent. Sleet, ice, rain, snow! May 31, 1940—Paid my 3 A, 4B and 4A class dues. Carmine shook hands with me. June 13, 1940—August Meier lost his brief case which is showing signs of wear. ... So is the plaster in the auditorium. June 1940—Graduation at last . . . The diplomas were tied with rib- bons (not elastics) . . . We are all alumni now! Psxt Fifly-tti All aboard! All aboard the Futopian City Sightseeing Special, leav- ing immediately on an hour’s tour of the city! Before our departure, ladies and gentlemen, I’d like to sketch for you a brief history of this ideal com- munity. It was founded through the joint efforts of Jane Cunliffe and George Nimmo and is peopled entirely by the members of the class of June 1940 of Barringer High School. The purpose of this social venture is to allow each of its inhabitants to pursue whatever vocation he wishes, and to carry out his most cherished childhood ambition. Thus far, the plan has been a tremendous success. All aboard! Here we go! We are now rolling down spacious Nichols Boulevard, dedicated to that famous martyr. On our left you see the Homelike Hotel for Bachelors, directed by Shirley Rabinowitz, specializing in the 'kind of pies that mother used to bake.’ On our right is Scientists’ Haven, the latest thing in laboratories, run by Dr. Eugene Hocrth. Here the enthusiastic chemists, Betty Knowles, Bernard Schechncr, Ruth Diamond, and Connie Pascali dabble to their hearts’ content. Of course, you’ve heard of Stan Hardy, our brilliant young laboratory technician, who recently revolutionized the scientific world when he split an atom with a milk bottle! That postman you see over there is Gilbert Carrara, showing Jack Apgar and his helper, Mary Harris, ‘how to deliver the New York Times in one easy lesson.’ Those two young men standing on soapboxes nearby are Dan DeLorenzo and Norman Le Boeuf, who conduct daily lectures on woman suffrage. We are now approaching Hale University, the pride and joy of the Futopian City intelligentsia. Dean Frank Sommer and Eloise Pringle, academic dean, will be delighted to conduct you through its halls at any time. I’m sure you will be interested in the painless grammar course, devised by Dora Stolfi, Professor of English, and in the work done by Helen Pollack and Harriettc Davison, music professors, who turn out dozens of Toscaninis every year! In the secretarial department Jennie Ciacciarclli and Genevieve Stanziale have perfected a system for typine four hundred words a minute. In a private room (endowed by Joseph Ziliotto, multi- millionaire) Ernest Rizzio, tutored by Bruno Grenci, practices tirelessly day and night to beat Mr. Bruder at checkers. Hale University is famous for its prowess in the athletic field. Sam D’Ambola and Len Bonforte, fencing and football coaches respectively, have led their teams on to bigger and better triumphs. Thanks to the efforts of Larry Conforti, Lou D’Angelo and John Robinson, sports writers, pub- lic interest is centered on Hale. Murray Berezin and Robert Herrmann teach a special course on Prgr Fifty-right parallel bars, their nature and inflictions. Hale is especially proud of its aesthetic dancing lessons given by Marilyn Wcrtheim, prima danscusc, and Ernest DeBlank, who plays the piano. Helen Mankowski and Bette Roth limber up the pupils before classes and administer first aid after them. Before leaving Hale you must not fail to see Milton Lipstein’s marvelous new invention guaranteed to stretch a person at least one inch per month! As we turn into Palmer Tree Park, observe the verdant foliage planted by Nick Messina and dedicated to the President’s wife (nee Con- stance Spath). Slipping into that geyser is Juanita Vanover, who is doing a scene for her latest thriller, 'Dangers of Daphne.’ The handsome hero in the raincoat is John Cicconc, her new leading man. You can see Mary Jo Eley cantering along the bridle path on her glossy roan, led by her groom, Walter Thorne, and followed by her riding class. Notice in the pavillion current glamor girls Betty Mclillo and Frances Scanzera giving a fashion show for the benefit of political boss Emmett Groseclosc. Carmela Comito i$ modeling a dinner dress for Barbara Koze, Futopian City’s best-dressed woman. As we leave, the Palmer Tree Park gates close automatically be- hind us, and Robert Ham, the Park’s Good Humor man, is waving good- bye from his bicycle. Because of the importance of the England Broadcasting Network, we will stop here for a short intermission to visit the studios. As we enter, we hear discord, caused by the Three Radio Rogues, Joe Viscito, Clark Bremseth and Robert Taylor, practicing for the National Yodeling Hour. Over in that corner Kenneth Flicker is helping Richard Dobbins do back- stands for a television broadcast. The woman crawling under chairs is Kathleen Murphy, detective, weeding out foreign spies, a comparatively simple task after her sensational capture of 'Curly’ Carmine Ccntanni, absconding treasurer. Doris Rambo is relaying a free offer from Cuttriss Corn Flakes to fellow missionaries and cannibals. We now leave the Broadcasting Studios and head for the Pearson Aeronautic Field. That young lady dangling from the tree is Elincr Mayzel taking angle shots of Betty and Margy Zentgraf, joint winners of the Miss Futopia Beauty Contest. As we drive into the airport do not fail to notice the crowd around Louise Lyon, our mayor, who is going on an investigation tour of canine housing conditions. She is making a farewell address while daredevil co- pilots Charles Price and James Pinkman warm up her plane. The hostess dragging Miss Lyon into the plane is Elaine LaPierre, and the farewell songs are being rendered by Elvira Zccca and her orchestra. This brings our little tour to an end. We now return to the bus terminal where Sylvia Berg, President of the Ladies Auxiliary, will serve tea and crumpets. I thank you.’’ Fifty-nine (LlaAS f estennent We, the Class of June 1940, being of unsound and reckless mind and cogitation, do hereby offer, suggest, and dare this to be our last Taunt and Pesterment . . . 1. We allot to the present 4B’s the difficult task of reconciling the school to our departure. 2. To eager students of English we leave a brand new set of grammar terms, since the names arc changed every year anyway. 3. To the students of Biology we leave half a frog apiece because one frog’s leg is enough for anybody's lunch. 4. To any aspiring florist go the remains of Mr. Brudcr’s roses. 5. To crossword puzzle enthusiasts we leave the maze of 3 A English. 6. To over-plump pupils we grant one shoe horn apiece to slip them into the new skin-tight desks. 7. To next term’s gobblers we leave the thrilling occupation of seesawing on the lunch- room benches. 8. The Sewing Room is left to any especially brave beings who have no objections to pins sticking in them. 9. To future classes we bequeath all of our fifteen hall lockers, including those with broken handles. 10. To the P.T.A. we leave all such slips as we have never taken home. 11. To talent scouts of the Metropolitan Opera we leave the privilege of visiting the girls’ gym lockers where future singing stars perform. Personal Bequests . . . 1. To Mr. Rubinfcld ... a silent second floor. 2. To Miss Weiss ... a gavel for her study classes, out of pity for her pencils. 3. To Mr. Bruder . . . democratic principles. 4. To Mr. Dumm ... a book of regulations on the Divorce Laws for atoms in the various states. 5. To Miss Dow . . . more students who will be getting out of” study classes. 6. To Miss Bell . . . ribbonless typewriters and depleted files. 7. To Mrs. Dearing . . . non-sinkablc crusts for meat pics. 8. To Miss Scalera . . . scraped gym floors and expert barn dancers. Furthermore . . . 1. To each drinker at the water fountain we supply protective goggles as a shield against the violent water pressure. 2. To students wearied by climbing we leave a folding hammock by each desk. 3. We devise and bequeath a mechanical dresser-upper” for girls caught in a gym jam. 4. To the Physics toy collection we leave a set of pulleys to operate the levers for freezing the ice that is needed to cool our heads after one of those six bulbs con- nected in scries, etc., etc.” enigmas. 5. To the ghost of Beethoven we leave the discord in the Glee Club. 6. Lastly, the peeling plaster from the auditorium columns is bequeathed to the stooge” crew. In witness whereof we have left miscellaneous fingerprints in our wake, this momentous day of June, 1940. Duly signed, sealed and placed at your mercy as our very last Bill and Pesterment.

LEONARD BONFORTE Lenny Bonforte is one of the few letter- men who have distinguished themselves in three outstanding sports.

Page Siylynmr A fast lias Side back field takes the ball around Barringer’s right end for a short gain. Russ Wohlgemuth, captain of the 4A basketball team, lays one in and piles up the score. This is one team that is r, ops in interscholastic com petition. They are metropolitan champs! The girls may occasionally hit the referee with the ball but they play a good game just the same. A batter has no chance on a ground ball to Captain ferry Belmonte at third base. The star ter s gun . . . and these sprinters from the track team are off to break the tape at the end of the 220. It takes: hard spring training to get the baseball team in shape for the full season they hav e ahead of them. fohn Robinson, co-captain of the track team with George Nimmo, practices putting the shot in view of future track and field meets. Many points were scored during the past football season by the versatile back field work of co-captain Leonard Bonfor e. Thirty-love . . . only one more game and they will have the set and match. The cross country team spends the fall season traversing the hills and dales of northern New Jersey. in a previous publicaticn of the Athenaeum, basketball was referred to as a lost sport” in Barringer. This was due to the fact that for about a quarter of a century the game held no place in the school’s sports program. The last records of basketball as a major sport date back to 1913 at which time the team was disbanded. While the sport was active the squad enjoyed several championships under the names of both Newark High School and Barringer High School. Although inter-class basketball has been carried on in recent years, time and facilities have been lacking to raise it to the interscholastic level and to the prominence of a major sport. However, during the past year, with the kind permission of our principal, Mr. McGrcal, our class has been able to renew to Barringer this most popular of modern sports. When we were challenged in our 4B term by the 4A class, the Class of January 1940, we set about to arrange an exciting and spirited game for the rest of the school. The acquisition of bleacher stands for the Gym, through the courtesy of the Newark Normal School and the friendly rivalry of the two classes set up a fine spirit in which to test the popularity of the game. It would be unjust to call the attempt anything short of a success. A large group turned out to witness a fast-moving, close-scored contest with the 4B team stealing the game by a two point margin, the final count being 28-26. Interest in the game had been aroused. The next term the field of combat was enlarged and the seniors of our eternal rival. East Orange High School, were invited to try their skill at dethroning the Barringer Champions.” The result was another thrill- packed encounter with the Barringer team coming from behind in the first quarter to win by the safe score of 36-19. Since this game the team has taken on other challengers and both victories and defeats have been chalked up. But the matter of a victory or a defeat is of little consequence. What we have tried to do is to clear a path for the revival of a steadily growing sport. We arc justified in calling it popular for during the last few years basketball has drawn the largest paid attendance of all sports. For these reasons we hope to see it restored to Barringer. We have planted the seed and hope to see it continue to grow. PjX? Srirn y-fuo In closing, our class wishes to express its thanks to the many persons who have been greatly responsible for the success of its numerous undertakings. Without their aid, achievement would have been an arduous task. And now, as the Class of June 1940, we bid farewell to the varied activities of school life, taking our places in the long ranks of Barringer alumni. May we prove worthy of the faith and confidence placed in us! Pj lf SrvfH y-tbrre Compliments of Collegiate Cap Gown Company 366 FIFTH AVENUE NEW YORK CITY Tel.
