Pride, honestly and genuinely worked and succeeded Board present this issue in that the Board members nave in making this issue of the PıvoT an outstanding work both as regards unusual material and novel structure. Regret, in that our powers of production are unhappily ‘imited and fal! far below our aspirations in publishing a still better publication than this. However, we can truthfully say that it is the level best we could pos- sibly offer. Let us take this opportunity in extending our sincere eratitude to the faculty adviser of the Senior Class. Joseph Miller: to the literary censor, Dr. Henry M. Goldstein; to the advertising adviser, John R. Boyle: and to the art adviser, J.

How jocosely we gather in The unthreshed grain to fill each bin, Those large and looming tow’rs. How strange that we should reapers be! We planted not the seeds. The sod was turned, the furrow driven By those who from the soil had riven Each crop of choking weeds. Now, shall we thresh the gathered wheat, And knead it into bread ; The process will be long and drear, But when the time to cease is here, Ah then! we shall be fed. Shall we leave you unrequitted, Brave Planters of the mind? No, we pledge with hands uplifted, To keep your words when we have rifted. And left you all behind. And when at last, the Master Planter. Shall gather you. His crop. May the seeds which you have sown. Insure your rest within His zone, Oh. blessed harvesters! 7 His Irish Mary Bv Helen Klepackv old Veteran's Home, snuggling unpreten- The tiously behind the whitewashed fence, and skirted on both sides by parallel rows of cabbages, beans, let- and such vegetables as its inmates chose to cultivate, sheltered old Josh M'Gill pressible temper for twenty years.

Once in his son's home, the old man gave no further thought to his other ungrateful children. Com- plete happiness was his. Not a care or a want passed unheeded. His Irish Mary, ever loving and mindful, to his Her bulky form hovered over him from sun to sun, like a ministering angel, and her broad, genial smile, challenged the radiance of the morning sun, as she greeted him with a Good mornin', fayther, how be yer rheumatiz tday?” or Did thet linyeement Biddy brung ye aise th’ pain in yer fut whativer?”” Oft-times, in a delirium, he would suddenly start and stare around the room in bewilderment, but a re- assuring word or sign from Mary eradicated every doubt and vexation from his fast failing mind, and he would resume smoking his pipe with the content- ment of an infant. When Mary would anxiously ask if there w as anything he desired, he invariably answered, ''Whisht, honey, whisht, ye've nay raison tubbe onaisy “bout те.” “Магу.” he said feebly one day, as his darlint was rubbing his foot with some “‘yaller linyeement,”” whan I can't smoke this here ould pipe, wot Мас give me, Mary, I tell ye I'm a gonner.” The time did arrive when the briar-root pipe was administered every wish. filled with baccy for the last time.

A Perfect Senior Speech By Helen Klepacky He is busily conversing with his neighbor and does not hear his name announced. Someone nudges him {rom behind, whereupon he wheels around and chal- lenges the intruder with a bat in the eye if he tries to get funny. Suddenly realizes he is next, and makes a two-yard dash for the steps. Reaches the last step in safety, when he unwarily trips and sprawls head foremost on the platform, giving his head a love tap, and hitting his funny-bone against the leg of a chair. The assembly immediately becomes a bedlam of giggles and subdued laughter. Severely reproaches himself for his hastiness. Abruptly raises himself, caressingly rubbing his bruised skull-pate. and brush- ing his clothes. Much embarrassed, and grinning sheepishly he begins the ordeal.

The principal must wait a few moments for the commotion to subside. [he program continues.

Не never had that de- Not that he was indifferent, because he wasn't. Far from it. Не only thought it a lot of hot air and nothing else. As for success: didn't he make good in his studies? Didn't he belong to the Debating Club? Couldn't he have made the varsity debating team but that an- cther friend wanted to make it very badly and he stepped away in his favor? Didn't he belong to a number of clubs but never thought it essential to hold office? Not that he was proud, nor, on the other hand, was he afflicted with an inferiority complex. He was neither. It just meant forty below zero to him. He liked the activities and worked. and that was his satisfaction. His folks. his mother espec ially, would always put up Jack as an example of a live wire and as an exponent of success in later life. She would try to persuade him to become a more spec- tacular figure at school. But Harry always resisted. Now. as he is sitting there toward the back of the platform, he regrets that he had ever resisted. No, not for his own sake. For himself it still means nothing. But as he regards the Finkelstein family below as they are near bursting with happiness and After parents below. he has never sire.

How happy they would have been if he were to have addressed this audience now! His reveries were interrupted by the principal's soft bass voice and again the president of the class rose, and with a forma! little speech, presented the Senior Gift to the school. Due thanks from the principal, and the program was resumed. In the middle of the class song little Anna clutched Look, Mama! there's Harry on see him?

You'll ask Jake where a little later why Harry is sitting in the back. The diplomas are given out and as Harry passes Jack by, sincere congratulating smiles are exchanged beiween them. Jack begins to look eagerly at the loaded little table beside the principal's chair. Не knows that all the honors, letters and awards are on that little table. Не also knows that not a small share will soon be his, and he smiles to himself thinking of his address earlier in the evening. Harry sees the same little loaded table but feels worse for doing so. He cannot meet the gaze of his parents. Jack Finkelstein, flows the voice of the principal, receives one letter as president of his senior class.” The president rises.

Jack wakes up with a start. “А gold medal as captain of the debating team.” He receives it with a bow and again returns to his seat unconsciously smiling to the roaring audience. “To one of the best and most hard working mem- bers of the Debating Club, a complete edition of ‘Great Orations of the World,” to Harry Gimbelson. 7 Harry could hardly believe his own ears. Some one nudges him sharply and he stumbles down to the front and takes the white paper package from the smiling principal and returns bewildered. to his seat in the back. The hand-clapping is loud and sweet in his ears and now he dares look down to his parents with a happy grimace. Among those who receive medals as members of the fencing team is Jack again. When his name is called the applause is promoted to a shouting. Some baby, he is, remarks our peroxided friend amid the acclamations. You bet, more coming. says her side-kick, “а� а there's Yea! Jack! And more does come. The Pasteur Club presents him with a book and the Rifle Club with a medal. The presentation of a scholarship for a four-year course in jurisprudence from some distant institution is the climax. It is that the commencement exercises of the class of June 1929 are the commence- ment exercises of Jack Finkelstein. In the vestibule he is swamped with acclamations. It takes the appear- ance of a sort of reception hall for his benefit. Even the janitors who know him well come to shake hands It is just as Jack expected clear with him and see him off. it to be. Harry’s acclaim by his parents and friends is much quieter and restrained. He himself is vastly pleased at the surprise afforded him by the Debating Club. He seeks out the president of the club, tali, red- headed, and thanks kin for the favor.

As the molten bells proclaim some fateful hour. Just as a deep unrest comes from the sea. So do these skies reach down and comfort me.

Tonight our Alma Mater weeps, She tears, and tho she sees us go With mournful sorrow, still she sweeps Us out into the world to sow Her hardy seeds. Her harvest reaps Luxurious winy fruits that glow.

But in the home games the team out for victory downed the East Side and South Side representatives in decisive fashion by the scores of 32— 2] and 45—20 respectively. The first five consisted of Harry Kesselman and Irv Segal at forwar ds, Lou Babiak at center and Capt. Vic Di Filippo and Milt Taback at the guard posts. The high scorers for the season were Di Filippo, Babiak and Segal, who bore the brunt of attack, while the guarding of Taback and Kesselman's floorwork were bright lights. This year's team achieved the distinction of being the first Central team to chalk up 100 points in a regular game, doing so in the first, when the Alumni struggled valiantly but in vain to check an avalanche of baskets which steadily increased to the century mark, while their best efforts reaped them but 30 points. other first teammen who saw action were Einhorn, Jordan, Cohen, Andrusky and Among Medinski. Harmon. Among the victims other than South Side and East Side were Battin High School, Plainfield High School and South Orange (twice). Сіозе games dropped to St. Benedict's, Bloomfield and Morri: town. wert ‘The prospects for next year are very bright as the entire squad will be back with the exception of Capt. Vic Di Filippo who will bid his Alma Mater good- bye in May. Doc Sargeant will try to fill in the guard position and with a year's experience of playine together the team ought to go “great guns next yea! Girls’ Pentathlon Again the Central girls participated in the annual gymnastic meet at West Side High School. Although they did not gain first place they made a good show- ing. ‘lhe team consisted of Margaret Officer, Edna Hax, Laura Freund, Josephine Caputo, Catherine Katopes, Eleanor Leitereg, Gertrude Gibbs, Laura Friedman, Dorothy Greenwald, Evelyn Burkhardt, Sara Wideman, Edith Heims, Alma Otto, Dora Davis, Sara Hauser and Anna Noska. The events 62 entered were: Baseball Target Throw, Standin: Hop, Skip and Jump, Basketball Goal Shooting. Rope Climbing and an Obstacle Race. After the race each school was represented by sixteen girls in a tap dance. The dance was followed by a volley Ба! game with teams of five girls from each school. Those representing Central were: Josephine Caputo. Edna Нах, Gertrude Gibbs, Eleanor Leitereg and Alma Otto. Graduating Athletes With the graduation of Teddy Kirschenman Cen- ral will have to fill many gaps on its athletic teams. l'ed proved to be a very good man on the baseball neld where he showed his wares as a crack outhelder. l'ed was also one of the mainstays of the State Cham- onship football team of '27 where he held down At the '27 season he was rated among the best nds of the state. Ted's forte was track where he pecialized in the running high jump and sprints.

Bob managed the ‚asebail team in the early part of the 27 season, and n bidding him good-bye Central loses another fine epresentative on the field of sports. Ralph Lordi, whose fencing skill can be attributed lo the daily wielding of a mean pen, will graduate among this group of athletes. Ralphie is to be sorely missed from the swimming team. for “‘finless fish are scarce. We will also remember Lordi as a second Frankie Genaro. So good luck to you! A boxer luminary is Al Albanese who showed to fine advantage while on the boxing Al did not confine his activities to boxing only, but won his cross-country, placing among the leaders. Although Central is him go, he does so with the best wishes Sam Epstein, who during his career scored many points as a member of gymnastic team. Sam specialized in tumbling and is considered one of the best in the city. He was placed in almost every meet he entered and chalked up many points to help Central lead and others follow.” Graduation this term takes from Central one of her best four-letter men: Vic Di Filippo. Не is a ver- satile athlete who won many championships in the running high jump, 880-yard and 440-yard runs. At present Vic holds the city title for the 440-yard run in the last South Side Meet. Di Filippo is anchor- man on the relay and scored the highest number of points during the outdoor season of '28. І� basket- ball he captained the '29 team and was picked as All-State guard.

Fencing [he Central Fencing Team is quite active this eason. The boys are in the pink of condition and ill ready to capture the City High School Champion- hip title. l'or their first match the boys fenced with Newark cademy, to whom they lost, 5—3. The Central line-up in this match was Robert Peterson, Dion Porzio, Irving Eisen and Joseph Porzio. [he next fencing bout was with the Barringer am. They beat Barringer to the tune of 6-2. 63 In this match the line-up consisted of Robert Peterson, Joseph Porzio and Irving Eisen. Something to take note of, is the fact that Barringer outfenced Newark Academy, 5—2, Newark Acad- emy beat Central. 5—3. and yet Central triumphed over the Barringer boys, 6-2. Without a doubt, this is because Central was in much better form during the Barringer match, due to their constant practice and firm Newark Academy. resolve to earn a come-back match with General Organization of Central High School After three months of hard work on the part of the different members of the G.
