omilfom The two persons who contribute the most to our physical comforts are David Albright and Mrs. Anna Johnson. Mr. Albright, better known as Uncle Davef, gets up in the early hours to see that the building is warm and comfort- able. He sweeps and cleans after those students who forget to place their waste paper, pop bottles, or chewing gum where it belongs. He is a friend in need when it comes to getting change or removing an ill-fated nickel from the pop machine. He is ll friend and confidant to both students and teachers. We can't imagine Bellmar without Uncle Dave. Mrs. johnson does her work after the school day is over. The second floor is her particular responsibility, and it is al- ways clean and tidy.

During the fall program, the members were honored by seeing and hearing Miss Betty Clooney and dancing to the music played by one of the leading disc jockeys, jay Michael, the famous jaybird of WCAE. A change of scenery is always welcome and so was the change of round dancing to square dancing with the orchestra of Benny XVineland. The Hallowe'en party was serenaded by the handsome Johnny Krestan and his orchestra. Students participating were dressed in various colorful costumes and many prizes were awarded. The sponsors scheduled Frankie Barr's, Buddy llixenbaugh's and Fred Dryer's orchestras for additional attractions, and planned a tal- ent show in which canteen members took part. Prizes were present- ed to the winners. With the coming of spring, a skating party was introduced. On a repeat performance, the jaybird made .mother big hit with the students. The seniors wish to take this opportunity to thank the members of the Tuesday Evening Civic Club for providing them with four years of grand entertainment. liettv Clooney, guest soloist. at the Can- Kianteen Sponsors: Mrs. Clarence Grant, U-A-ni co-chairmang Mrs, .Iames Hamilton, Mrs, Herbert Solomon, guest: and Mrs. VI, li.
