This was really a red letter year for the '37 class! The class basketball team soared off to fame by winning the intramural championship. Those scoring most points were Messrs. Sobol, Prulso, Faber, Schneider and Chaimovich. A swimming club was formed in the School through the efforts of the class of '37, which supplied such outstanding members as Dave Morisen, jack Bailin and Andy Buczek. The next social event of our history was held on january l9, l935, at a Stag Party given at the Bay View Wheelman's Club in Newark. Later a Dinner and Dance was held as Hosp's at Irvington, N. j. Plans were made for a junior year which would make history at Newark Tech. When the class convened for its junior year at Newark Tec-h, Mr. Frank Beldowski was once more chosen president, Mr. H. Keller, Vice-presi- ientg Mr. james Grady, Treasurerg Mr. Dave Morisen, Secretary, and Mr. Ted Schneider, Sergeant-at-arms. When the class was asked to elect two members to the Student Council Ed. Beldowski and Harry Keller were chosen. The junior Prom-that date anticipated from the very inception of the class organization-was held on january 25, l936, at the Elizabeth Town and Country Club. Bobby Meyers and his mad men of song and dance fur- nished the music, the ladies, with such a refined setting, supplied that latent urge to dance possessed by all good Techsters, and the boys from '37- well, we had a really delightful evening. jim Grady, the chairman of this committeeg H. Grady, j. Schechter, A. Buczek, Ted Schneider, H. Keller and j. Carroll were most certainly deserving of that traditional rising vote of thanks. Before retiring as Class President, Mr. Frank Beldowski called an elec- tion of officers for the Senior year. Mr. O. F. Parachini was elected Presi- dent of the Senior class. Frank was aided in his administrative duties by Harry Keller, Vice-president, Mr. Ronald Faber, Secretary, Mr. j. Carroll, Treasurer, and Mr. joe Gavin, Sergeant-at-arms. Harry Keller and Ted Sc-hneider represented the class as members of the Student Council. At the request of the Fratech for a class reporter Mr. Ed. McBride was appointed. Late in November plans were under way for graduation. The Year Book Committee selected by Chairman O. F. Parachini consisted of Messrs. Chaimovich, Ciesla, Buonincontri, Dobushak, Dumont, Grady, Gushin, Keller, LaPenna, McBride, Moore, Morisen and Weber. The following month the Key Committee, headed by Chairman julius Weber and consisting of Messrs. Kelly and Tomaszewski, was formed. At the Progress Club on April 3, l937, the class members and their ladies enjoyed the Senior Ball. This affair was a rival to our junior Prom, and it goes without saying that everyone had a good time. The committee responsible for t-his delightful party included R. Faber, chairman, j. Kelly, j. Gavin, A. Buczek and M. Krumholz. Now we of '37 have finished our duties at Tech. We pass the torch to the class of '38 and say, Labor Omni Vincit. Vale! E. T. MCBRIDE

junior Class At last another year of learning has come to an end, Success has been with us and we hope we will never lose it. The members of our class have shown a greater interest in the organization for the past year. This increase in class interest has made our junior Prom a great success. This function was a financial as well as a social success. There were at least forty couples present and they sure enjoyed themselves. All this may be credited to the Messrs. Baker, Riceman, Van Leuben, Reichenstein and Brandt. These men have served our class and school faith- fully and to the best of their ability. I sincerely hope that our Senior class officers serve our class as well as these men have served us in the past year. The junior class officers are planning another social affair that will be held some time during our spring term. The music will be supplied by Al Kurdelds Golden Crest Orchestra. We all hope that this affair will be as successful as our junior Prom. There will be refreshments and entertain- ments at the next affair. We are looking forward to a better year during our Senior term at the Newark Technical School, and may the following classes have the same thoughts and ideals that the classes of the past years had. The junior class takes this opportunity to congratulate the graduating class of '37, and may they be successful in all their future ventures. A jUNlOR FAREWELL A, G. BARTIROMO
