Loyal to life's ending. JUNIUS W. STEVENS 1924 1 IDE mflOE Maps, pink elevators, these were the things we were up against when we entered B. H. S. as small, green, frightened fresn- men. As educated freshmen, we saw our football team take All City . In 2B we met our other half. The kids from the annex finally arrived at Barringer. Biology and Geometry introduced us to words we’ll never forget— osmosis, hypotenuse, etc. The only day everyone showed up at school was the day the doors were locked. The snow was too deep for the janitor. In 3A we lost two home room teachers, Miss McKenzie and Mr. Kahn, but we got a lot of consolation when we were given Miss Tunstead and Mr. Kritzer in their place. Preparing for a dance brought about more problems then we had expected. The fellows didn't know how to dance so Miss Scalera and the 4B girls helped teach them. The boys learned, and it was a lot of fun. Ah!!! English 4 —Do you re- member? Et tu—Et tu Brute. Stomach ache? Or Appendicitis? That was the question—The answer was a 2 ounce appendix for Palma Carbone. Operation successful. How can we help but know that AI Porcello lost his Physics gyp slip. Remember what his mark was that cycle? Neither rain, snow, nor ice kept the eager throngs from coming to see who was chosen Queen of Hearts at our 4B dance. Because we were financially em- barrassed, we were allowed to give a second dance in the 4B term. One of the faculty members once said she didn't know how HISTOfiy one class could have so much originality. We even broke the record and mado history when we failed to have any member of the class elected to the National Honor in our 4B term. The day finally arrived. We were no longer small, green, fright ened, freshmen; we were now Big Time Seniors, and we owned the front seats in the auditorium. Ah!!! Lockers, those beautiful hunks of tin. We didn't have to take them in 4A—they were given to us. Anyone who intended to learn chemistry did learn it, but about 99% didn't. I can't under- stand how so many people got the same answers wrong.' (Mr. Dumml It isn't so bad when one of our classmates has to be taken to the hospital for appendicitis, but when two in the same week- end go, that's too much. That is what happened in September of our 4A term. Norma Freda was rushed Friday night and Lillian Polizzi must have become jealous because she was rushed away Sunday morning. I wonder how they got all their homework done so quickly? Should we ask Rita Tauriello and Grace Milano? Some of the kids were probably thinking of their childhood days when they brought lollypops to chemistry class, I wonder who started this? I don't think Frank Peloso will ever want to sing again. Mr. Buhrman made him give a solo for Miss Disbrow and the office staff. The closest our class came to having an outing was when we had our hayride. Half the gang lost their way to the stables, but finally managed to get started when the rest of the crowd was returning. In spite of the mix up, we had a wonderful time. Although many of us have looked forward to graduation day. we all regret leaving now that it's time to. Mr. Lippe__________________ I didn't mark them yet.

Frank made all-state in basketball for his fine display of ball handling and his aggressiveness under the boards. Frank was also a good, hard, power runner on the football team. When playing baseball, he was the man who drove home those all- important runs. y LPHONSE PORCELLO was one three-letter man who did not see action in any field of sport at any time for Barringer. Instead, Al became one of the most famous sports managers this school has ever had. Al managed the basketball team for two years, the baseball team for two years, and the football team for one year, making total of five letters In three different fields of sport. yiNCENT CAPRIO has played baseball and football during all his four years in Barringer, and has made the all-city baseball team twice. In football he played on the great Big Blue team of '45 that won the city title and finished fifth in the state. Vin also earned two major letters playing on the basketball team. S the whistle blew commencing the '48 football season, a green Barringer team took the field to oppose West Side, the '47 City league champs. As the cheers subsided and the large crowd filed out of School Stadium, a dejected Barringer team trudged into the locker rooms, for the final score read West Side 24 Barringer 6. The following week Barringer was again on the short side losing to Central 33 to 8. The squad and its coach Mr. Naparano refused to accept defeat and worked untiringly in order to perfect all their offensive plays and defensive maneuvers. On Columbus Day the Big Blue faced a big Weequahic team and trounced them by a 25 to 0 score. After the final victory the rest came easy. South Side was defeated 12 to 0; West Orange 13 to 7; East Side 13 to 0; and Belleville 14 to 0. The men in blue compiled an amazing defensive record in its last five games by having but seven points scored against them. As this book went to press the team was preparing for their Turkey Day Classic with East Orange. Keep up the good work boys and good luck. £VEN though the boys in blue did not win the city title, they came through with a close second place. Coach Anthony Naparano, led his track team through a fine season, the boys winning nine dual meets and losing but five. John D'Andrea was the main factor in the team's success. John won the high jump and the high hurdles in most meets, and finished first in hurdles and first in the high jump in the city meet. Another boy who was completely unheard of on the cinder path until his senior year is Richard Salierno. Dick, after placing in most dual meets, finished a close sec- ond in the city meet. We are very proud of the fine running and jumping of the Big Blue of Barringer. JOHN D'ANDREA RICHARD SALIERNO I JNDER the tutelage of Joe Nerenberg, the Big Blue of Barringer had a mediocre season—a record a little below average, with seven won, and ten lost. The boys in blue played hard, but met some of the outstanding teams of the state, such as West Side, Central, Bloomfield, Kearny, and Hillside. In the city, the keen competition kept Barringer from being one of the leading clubs. Ron Velardi, who was the Blues first pitcher, had a record of 5 won and 3 lost. The Barringer team was rounded out with the hard-hitting Frank Peloso at first base, the fine fielding Joe Agolia at third base, Al Restaino, who was Velardi's battery mate, and that all-around ball player, Vin Caprio, who earned four major letters by playing on the varsity in his freshman year. Although the team did not have a perfect season, they displayed some fine acts of sportsmanship that are always true of Barringer ball players. RONALD VELARDI JOSEPH AGOLIA AL RESTAINO flSKUBHLL FTER a slow start in the season of 1947-48, the Big Blue of Barringer started to roll. Our quintet was beaten by Central, Montclair, and Weequahic, but came back to defeat Belleville, a highly touted club. The boys then proceeded to beat East Side, West Side, South Side, East Orange, and Arts High. The Big Blue finished the season with a 1 3 and 5 record. As a result of this achieve- ment the boys were given invitations to the Essex County and State Tourna- ments. In the county get-together, the team went to the quarter-finals; but in the state tourney they were beaten in the opening game. This year Coach Nerenberg will build his team around Frank Peloso, John D'Andrea, diminutive Joe Agolia and Vin Caprio. Others who figure promi- nently in Coach Nerenberg's plans are Len Pearson, Bob Giacobbe and Jeff Daniels. Of the seven boys above, Frank Peloso, John D'Andrea, Joe Agoglia and Vin Caprio will be graduated at Midterm. iiuirlers COMETH ING new was added to the football games this season. Six u twirlers dressed in smart blue and white uniforms, who led the band and strutted across the field. Three are graduating with Class of January 1949. They are Palma Carbone, captain; Marietta Bucco and Helen Bowie. It was fun practicing their new routine, marching in the parade and twirling the batons during the half. The first game was a new experience of nervousness, excitement and anxiety. The last game will be difficult to forget, for it means their fun had ended. To the future twirlers of Barringer, here's hoping they will carry on and make each season an improvement. “THIS YEAR the Cheerleading squad under the tutelage of Miss Scalera will lose only two members. They are Captain Joe Cocchiarella and Eloise Hulin. Joe, who has been on the cheering squad for two years, was awarded the Captaincy in his senior year for his fine work. Eloise, a cheerleader for two years, has added that extra sparkle to the squad Their loss will be felt greatly, and it will be a job for Miss Scalera to find such capable performers as these to fill their shoes.

Through the memories of friendships we've made, Echoing ideals that never will fade Swelling sad hearts to the brim with our tears, Forever honor, truth, light will be endeared. Now Alma Mater it's farwell to thee And to thy pillars of antiquity. Praises and thank you to our faculty The hour draws nigh, so it's Barringer good-bye.

H. S.'s basketball team, coach Joseph Nurenberg took to the court with an inexperienced group. Considering that the boys had little experience, they played some of the better schools in New Jersey, and did an excellent job in winning eight out of their twenty-one game schedule. High scoring Len Pearson and fancy ball handlers Bob Giacobbe and Bob Kennedy were three varsity men from last season who formed the nucleus of the squad. We feel that Mr. Nurenberg did a wonderful job with the material that he had, and we, the Class of June 1949, would like to wish Mr. Nurenberg and the team the best of luck in the coming season.

TRACK HOWARD CAESAR ROBERT OPPELT JOHN ALFIERI TRACK TEAM “| HE history of Barringer's track teams during our four years shows key men being hurt every year; this year was no exception. However, the fact that Barringer lost the city championship for the first time in twenty years the time before we entered, has been a challenge which we had hoped to make good before our graduation. Last year in the city track meet Bob Oppelt was in seventh position in the mile as the group rounded the last turn, but a terrific stretch drive enabled him to pick up a valuable point which we didn't expect. Milton Miles and Lenny Pearson would have been sure point-getters in the low hurdles and half mile respectively had they not fallen. Lenny, in second place, was driving for first when he tripped and fell two feet from the tape. Jimmy Killen brought home a fourth in the two-twenty dash while Dan DeBennedetto ran second in the quarter mile. These June '49ers, along with classmates Howard Caesar, Jimmie Freda, Richard Holmes and Mike Faravola, formed the nucleus of this year's team. 89 FENCING BARRINGER FENCERS f R RUDY SALVATO Co ch ' “|“HE Aristocrats of Barringer , our fencing team, has added another undefeated season to an enviable record under the coaching of Dr. Gerald Cetrulo and Rudolph Salvato. Co-Captains Vincent Colorusso and Frank DelBianco, two boys from the June 1949 class, fig- ured in many of the victories which the Barringer Fencers have compiled in the past year. Vinnie and Frankie have both been members of the fencing squad since their sophomore year, earn- ing two major letters.

Because, dear. Now go to sleep. I can't sleep, Mother. Why? You will, child. When you see him. He will help you. Who is he. Mother? What does he look like? He is the sandman, dear. No one knows what he looks like. He wears a black cape. Why does he wear it? His cape shows your sleep. If he wears a short cape. You will sleep briefly. If it is long, you will sleep well. Mother? It hurts. Try to rest, my son. I will. Mother. I see him. He is coming. Now I can sleep. Mother, Why can't I see the end of his cape?' ROBERT STOCKER EVOLUTION Oh, tawny, supple, sly feline. What thoughts are scattered through your mind? Do you muse of days gone by As upon your bed you lie? Perhaps, back to Siam you go, And dwell not on your present woe. Oh duties of those days sublime. That have vanished with the time. Bedded in your door-way perch. No-one dared your manor search. This task was by your kinsmen done; Still no reward was by them won. They guarded well, your work is finished. All your power has diminished. We numans ponder at your mood. Wonder why you sit and brood. You could not fight that evolution. But tried to find your own solution. You've now become a thing of beauty. To decorate your only duty. LORRAINE KUTELLO -hAdovv DEATH Death. washed away. Boy just wa� t Hi--- Dead? When?

The soft touch of velvet, if you please A whiff of pepper makes us sneeze. And for taste, much can be said Ice cream, candy and dill pickles All these. Our stomachs tickle. But the sense that brings most joy. Whether it be girl or boy. Is the sense that gives us hearing. Loss of which, we all are fearing Lest we do not have the means To hear new money in our Jeans. ROBERT OPPELT MY SONG OF FREEDOM Since I am an American Myself and me alone, The Constitution is my right The Bill of Rights my throne. And in my press is freedom sure. And in my church is worship pure. And in my home is safety secure, For me and for my own. Since I am an American, My conscience is the thing To every duty summons, And serves me for my king. My life I live as pleases me. Without restraint on land or sea, The Bill of Rights ensures me free. To love and laugh and sing. Since I am an American, I praise those men of old Who made and passed the Bill of Rights And cast the U. $. in this mold. With all my rights thus guaranteed. With every chance that I could need, Of every form of slavery freed. My thanks a thousand fold. MARION VERUNGO patience morning MEMORIES Only a dress Limp and lifeless in the shadows of a closet. But in the shadows of my memory, A cloud. Soft and fluffy. Rustling about my ankles as I dance A record. Inanimate and silent. But to me, A wondrous miracle that fills the air With music, and laughter. And love. A ticket, Lying on the fable, Transforms itself, in my mind. To the splendor of a night. The applause and gaiety— The sparkle. A picture. Carelessly filed in an old album. And a long forgotten summer blooms again A gentle breeze. The perfume of the rose As it drifts about my head. Only a dress, A record, a picture. But, symbols of the past— Of my life. Memories.

I may not see the light aglow. And I may reach the end; But one thing sure this heart will know— That men will call mo friend. And through the bright and coming years, In hours that shall be spent, The simple things I'll hold most dear, Are those the Lord has sent. HARRY LAUER MARCH March rattles the door like an unwelcome guest, And reaches each corner, as if in the quest Of some warm spot which has not felt its breath. Of some sweet plant that escaped wintry death. Then suddenly it changes and taps on the door. Sweeps off its cloak, forgets its loud roar, Acts like a friend, welcome for long. Forgets its sad dirge, and sings a gay song. It plays with the children, rumples their hair. Teases their elders, and wafts away care. It begs sweet spring to come join its play; They skip off together, laughing and gay. - - | MARIE EHRKE A TRIOLET L',u5, °s'U.
