Eugene Phlllp Sacco, Jr. Undecided Jeep A true friend to all Outstanding as an athlete, Jeep has greatly helped Chat- ham's varsity teams along to victory for three years in soccer and for two in basketball and baseball. He has been important as a class otlicer, having been rice-president in the Senior and Junior years and treasurer as a Sophomore. In addition to his interests in schoul, when he was a Freshman and a Sophomore, Bud was a member of the Boy Scouts and the Delta Hi-Y, and for the last four years he has been a member of the Junior Holy Name. His interest in school activities has made him very popular, and everyone has enjoyed watching his antics. Auto- mobiles and motors are his hobbies. Constance Sue Budlong Sweet Briar 'tConnie Up and doing, with a heart for any fate Who is the talented artist that has been so aptly illustrating the Chatter and advertising the G. A. A.'s hot dog project? Of course, it's Connie Budlong. This busy senior seems always to have something t.o do, for she is active as Class Secretary twhich position she has held for two yearsj, Advisory Board secretary, and as a member of the Glee Club, the A Cappella Choir. and the G. A. A. Connie has handled much of the scen- ery work in the last two G. A. A. shows, which is a job in itself. Her warm, friendly manner has made her a popular and loved member of our class. Michael H. Zecchml College Mike There's mischief in that man For two years Mike has served the class as its able and efficient Treasurer. This year. in addition, be took full charge of the accounts for the senior pictures, which is a job in itself.

E61 Never pretends, never offends Curley is one of our court stars, a flashy and etfective guard on the basketball team. Quick and agile, he has been an active member of the B. A. A. for four years. On the side. Curley enjoys fishing and trappings, and is an avid swing and sports fan. C. H. S. is losing a good smiler as he leaves school, and we wish him luck. Jack Bedell Albright N. Y. U. Red What he undertakes to do, he does, and does it well Red's services to the Dramatics Club have been very valu- able. He held down the important position of stage manager during his Sophomore and Junior years. Red is also given credit for sound effects which made our school plays possible. His assistance in this job has been greatly appreciated by the Dramatics Club. His hobby of accounting is an unusual one. Being a lover of animals, Jack's special interest is in dogs. Herbert Leo Anderson Undecided Andy Onward still he held his way Andy didn't go around making himself conspicuous, but still he was definitely an asset to the Senior Class. He was very much interested in baseball and went out for the team in his Junior and Senior years. Besides baseball, Andy made basket- ball and stamp collecting' his hobbies. In addition, he was a well-known member of the Young' Peoples' Society. Florence Elsa Badgley Undecided Badgie Laugh and the world laughs with you A jolly. carefree manner and an interest in sports seem to go hand in hand. Florence has both this happy-Zo-lucky spirit and the athletic interests. The latter are reflected in the four years she has spent in the G. A. A. Badgie has been a member of the Girl Reserve for two years and was President for both of those years. She has been a Band member for two years, and has Sling in the Glee Club for three years. She has served on the Hot Dog Committee since its inauguration this year. Elizabeth Gertrude Barnum College George The joy of youth ami health her eyes displayed George came to Chatham last. year from Westfield, where she was an active member in many groups, two of these being the Latin Club and the Photography Club. As soon as she en- tered C. H. S. she became a popular and peppy member of our class and of the G. A. A. and the Sub-Deb Club. Georiz6'S hobbies are of varied nature. for she is fond of music and of sports. In her Senior year, George served efliciently on the Quotations Committee. Donald Bruce Bender College DOC He is a gentleman: witty, courteous, liberal, full of spirit The skilfull cartoonist who cleverly advertises school events is Don B4-nder. This boy who came from Sidney, Australia, has had many interests in C. H. S. He was president of the class In the Sophomore year and then secretary-treasurer of the Pyramus Hi-Y and the 4-H Club. Don's hobbies are wide- spread, for he enjoys model airplane building, cartooning, and entomology. He hopes to make his future either economic en- tiomology of aeronautical engineering, and judging by hiS DIPSQIW enthusiasm and skill, we predict for Don a successful future. Roberta Dorothy Black Undecided 'iB9Tta Her air, her manners, all who saw admired Throughout the entire high school term Roberta has assisted in the Glee Club and the A Cappella Choir. Other musical activities include playing the mlitar and singing. Scrapbooks of various kinds are one of Roberta's hobbies. Some of these oontain news events and happenings in the movie world. Another one of her hobbies is writing Short Stories and poems- Ralph F. Bohrmann couege B11b It can be said of him, when he departed he took a Man's life with him Bub has been our sports expert at Chatham. Photographic records share with verbal descriptions in the world of news- papers: so, like a true journalist, Ralph is interested in camera work. Through his four years' membership in the B. A.. Bub has found much materials for his write-ups. In addition to contributing to the local DRKYHY- he has Served HS SDOIWS Corrine Isabella Brancheau Business Stubby' ' Great oaks from little acorns grow An effervescent good humor distinguishes Stubby around C. H. S. During her last year she has belonged to the Glee Club and the A. Cappella Choir. She was also one of those ellicient and hard working typists who have contributed so much to the com- piling ol' the Chatter, Her hobbies are sewing and collecting poems. We wish her the best of luck as a career girl. Adellne Matilda Broadley Business Adeline The gift of gaiety may itself Be the greatest of good fortwne Business requires experience in the art of meeting people experience which can best be gotten in clubs and other organiza- tions. Adeline has been preparing herself by a two-year mem- bership in the Girl Scouts, a three-year stay with the Youmr Peoples. and two years in Glee Club. Practical experience, she finds can easily be obtained from some job such as typing f0l' the Chatter Board. A year's membership in the Dramatic Club completes Adeline-'s list. Besides her interest in steno- graphic work, Adeline likes sewing and stamp collecting. Beverly June Burton Maryville Bev A companion that is merry is worth gold F3e'.ferly's gay' good-humor has been an unfailing asset in every school activity. An all-around good sport. she served as captain of the girls' basketball team in her Junior year, and in her Senior year she was vice-president of the G. A. A. as well as a peppy cheer leader. The A Cappella Choir, the Glee and Dramatic clubs, the Blue Triangle and the Chatter Board, as well as various committees have all come in for a full share of her zestful energy. , . Donald Gilbert Caesar Air-conditioning Don Speech is' great, but silence is greater .Don .likes music--but not so much the production end of it. He is quite interested in building up an interesting collection of information about the ditferent orchestra leaders, and is includ- ing in that data all the pictures he can obtain. He also has an interesting collection of stamps. Just to prove that he isn't allergic to fresh air, Don displays an active interest in baseball. He hopes to bring that air indoors sometime ' the future. and we hope he can. Come back sometime, Don, nd give C. H. S. writer for the Chatter during the past year. a sample of conditioned air. pp I v H ' :i ill .ii xml?

Sports have been the chief interest and occupation of Willie during high school, He has been a member of the B. A. A. throughout that time and has gone out for all sports. He had the distinction of being captain of the soccer team in his Senior year and has won many letters, At Seton Hall he plans to train to be a physical ed. teacher. Dancing and collecting photographs tof girls, Willie7J are his hobbies. Frances May De Bow Undecided Timmie A good disposition is more valuable than gold Each year when Timmie went to Connecticut for a month's visit, we who were left behind in school were rather envious of her good fortune. Timmie has been a member of the Girls' Glee Club during high school and in her spare time she enjoys reading immensely. Although she has not taken part in many schiool activities, her interest in these events is great and she has been an enthusiastic supporter of them. Charles Lamar D'0oge Amherst Dooge Peraget angusta ad augusta Dooge is one of the busiest persons around the school. for he has many varied interests. Music takes up much of his time, as he belongs not only to the Choir and Glee Club. but also to the orchestra and band, which he represented this year in the All-State Concert. Also, he has been on the Chatter and the Advisory Board: in his spare time, he is the capable president of his Young People's Group and an enthusiastic booster of the Sea Scouts. A good scholar and a grand fellow, he has sup- ported some of the most important activities in the school. John William Ekegren, Jr. Cornell t'Eke Poor little captive of the blue-eyed glances' Eke is another of the bright boys we expect to put their marks on this old world. And his beaming smile won't be a handicap either, we dare say. To begin with, Eke is quite a club man, having the distinction of serving as president of the Pyramus Hi-Y. His membership in this group includes both Jun- ior and Senior years in the Delta Hi-Y. He has also been a member of the Advisory Board and the Boy's Glee Club. Eke is an all round sport, and never let varsity soccer down. Mathe- matics and the sciences are his special scholastic interests. Donald Baldwin Erskine Cornell D, B, His heart and hand both open and both free D, B. has quietly been carrying out an active school life. He can be found participating in the musical organizations and Model Airplane Club, as well as having a record in back-stage dramatic work. His outdoor activities, Sea Scouts, skiing, and canoeing, provide excellent opportunities for Don to practice another of his hobbies, photography: Joyce Fountain National Park College Joy A willing heart, a helping hand, Always ready on demand Joyce's wide interests have made her active in many or- ganizations. The Dramatic Club and the Glee Club claimed hm' attention in her Freshman year, and the following year she was an enthusiastic member of the Girl Reserves. Throughout high school, the tasty refreshments for our class parties have been ample proof of Joy's willing work. As a member of the G. A. A., she is a successful hot-dog-seller for the Activity Fund, and also has turned in several peppy performances in the yearly Frederick John Falvey Business Fred Take life too seriously and what is it worth? shows. Fred has just finished serving a term as the President of the Young People's Fellowship, in which he has been a member for the past four years. It seems that basketball holds the most interest for him, as far as sports go, for Fred has been playing it for three years. The Male Glee Club is something else which has been holding Fred's attention-for two years, in fact. And as to hobbies, he is interested in Stamp Collecting, Photography and Collecting Nickles. Frederick Gebert Business Fritz The silent man is most trusted Fritz Gebert's hobbies of trapping and mink raising have already excited considerable interest and public comment. His work in the Woodcraft course at school has been a great asset, for he has learned how to build pens for his pets. He also works at the systematic collecting of arrowheads and stamps. His other interest are aviation and farming with the emphasis on the raising oi animals. Fritz is a member of the Young People's Fellowship, J Ill.: L..!'

When the Dramatic Club necdcd some church windows, Clara produced them. Where was Clara? Oh, she was dawn-stairs painting the new scenery for the Dramatic Club. The G. A. A. wasn't neglected. either: Clara tried her hand in that organization. She is interested also in collecting stamps. Anybody want to trade some beauties? . Arthur Gentile Business Art Not afraid of work but not in sympathy with it Art has had a definite interest. in sports during high school. As one of the most outstanding athletes ot' C. H. S. he has won many prizes and letters, Included among these honors are a gold basketball for meritorious work on the basketball team. and a gold soccer ball and sweater for exceptionally distinguished service that has helped make the soccer team an outstanding one in the state. Art has also participated in Y. M. C. A. and I-Ii,Y activities. When he graduates he will enter the business world. Elizabeth Haley Undecided Betty As agreeable a companion as one could jtnd Betty, being musically inclined, belonged to the Glee Club. Choir. and the Orchestra during all four years. In addition. she was one of the All-State Chorus members in her senior year. Betty's other activities include the Girl Scouts in her freshman year, Dramatic Club in her Junior and Senior years, and Young People:-'s. Her hobbies are music and reading. She is especially interested in people. We think that her interest in peopie has been stimulated by her ability to get along with everyone. Aileen D. Hammond Overlook Training School Aileen She is pretty to walk with And witty to talk with And pleasant, too, to think on This attraction Senior came to us in her Junior year by way of Summit. While at Summit High School, she was a member of the dramatic club, the Glee Club. and the Blue Triangle. .In C. H. S. she joined our Glee Club and besides developed a special interest in photography. When Aileen graduates she will go in training to be, as we think, a successful nurse. 9 Always working with a will Never idle, never still, . ' When one sees the name of Beth Hanson in school reports. If IS llwariably among that small but choice company known as the Ijirst Honor Roll. In fact, she graduates first in the class and is a commencement speaker. Beth left our school at the end of the Eighth grade to attend Summit High School. For three years there, she was a member of the Honor Society and was active in the student council. Her cheerful but business-like etlicicncy as a typist has made her a welcome aid to the Chatter and to the faculty of C. H. S. Robert L. Headley Undecided Bob A man of mark, Wise to resolve, and patie-:it to perform Among the organizations of which Bob has been a member are the Pythias Hi-Y, Junior Hi-Y, and the Young Peoples.

He also played quite a bit of basketball during the noon period. He spends much of his spare time raising flowers, especially roses and chrysanthcmums. Photography is Bob's other hobby. Fred C. Herse Business Fred I dare do all that may become a mang Who dares do more is none Fred is the tall boy you have seen about the halls of C. H. S. or in the glee club and the A Cappella Choir. He has sung bass in these organizations for two years. For a hobby Fred has taken up photography, to which he enthusiastically' gives much of his time. Upon graduating, Fred is going to enter the business world. Ragnhild Beatrice Hjort Medical Center, Babies' Hospital Betty Let me say that she was fair If a calm and happy spirit contributes as much to the making of' a successful nurse as we think it does, Betty will do well in her chosen profession. In high school she participated in various school musical events as a member of' the Glce Club, choir, band. and orchestra. Betty and her twin sister, Kitty. are distinguished for their blonde hair, blue eyes, and musical ability. ,7?ki,a f t - ff j x A fi 'f af I ' R.

She has sung with the Glee Club and Chorus throughout high school. Kitty also played in the orchestra for three years. As a member of the G. A. A. she has been especially interested in sports, namely, basketball, baseball and hockey. Kitty, like her sister, Betty, will enter a hospital for nurses' training when she leaves school. Evelyn M. Honickel Business Evie I'll speak in a monstrous little voice Evelyn is looking forward to a business career and has been a helpful member of the office staff. The Chatter has also claimed her time as she has served as secretary. Quiet and friendly, she is an interested class member and a member of the History Committee. Outside of school, Ev belongs to the Young Peoples' group, and in her spare time studies an unusual hobby, advertising. rv Zona Horn New England Conservatory Zona, Those about her from her shall read the perfect ways of honor Who is the busiest girl in C. H. S.'! Zona, of course. She is an accomplished violinist who has played not only in our or- chestra, but also in the Summit Symphony Orchestra for the last three years. This year she plays in the Antonia Brico -Junior Symphony Orchestra in New York as well. Zona has twice represented C. H. S. in the All-State Orchestra, and she took first place in the state violin solo contest for '39, She has been a member of the Glee Club. Chorus, Chatter Board, Library Staff, Advisory Board, and the G. A. A. Yet, believe it or not. she finds time for hobbies on the side! These are art. horseback riding. and cello-playing. Genevieve J acobus Undecided Gene Those move easiest who have learned to dance Have you ever watched professional dancers performing and wished that you were one of them? Gene has done something about that desire, as we of Chatham High can bear witness. Her musical interest has come out in another form: a year well spent in the Glee Club and one in the A Cappella Choir. G. A. A. Of course. Gene was a member during her senior year. Heres something else. There's no need to keep it a secret- who would-Gene has been a member of the Sub-Deb Club. 10 Jeanie Barbara Judd Maryville Bobbie Her step is music, her voice is song Bobbie is one-half of that team, Judd and Burton, which is famous at C. H. S. for its dancing prowess. Barbara has belonged to the Dramatic Club, in which she served on the Make-up Committee, the G. A. A., the Choir, and the Glee Club for the past four years-not to mention her membership in the Sub-Deb Club. This year she has helped to edit This and That column in the Chatter. Robert Kerwin Business Spike He knows what is what rv Spike is another of the Senior boys who had an interest in sports during high school. He went out for several sports and was an enthusiastic member of the soccer team. Behind the counter at Chiefs, Spike has showed his prowess in the high art of soda-jerking. His pleasant smile is also an added lure to prospective customers, and we prophesy his success in all business ventures. Alexander Koukly St. John's College Alex Music is the universal language of mankind Few schools can boast as talented and well-trained a music- ian as Alex Koukly. Alex, as piano soloist for the May music festival in 1939, and as accompanist for the orchestra and Boys' Glee Club sets a high mark of proftticiency for high school pianists. Alex is also a co-partner of one dance band and plays with still another. In sports. he was the winner of the school ping-pong tournament in his Junior year and finalist on another occaion. His other interests are stamp collecting and photo- ZYHD Y- Joan Elizabeth Klocksin Nursing Joan It is a friendly heart that has plenty of friends It has been said that all sport received J0an's attention. Her year as Captain of the Basketball team, her term as Hockey 'Manager, and her four-year membership in the G. A- A. Bilb- stantiate that well founded report. She has serenaded in Glee Club. bandaged the Red Cross. and-served in the Dramatic Club. Since its organization, she has been working on the Hot Dog Committee. We bet that the smell of Hot Franks will remind Joan of her last year here at C. H. S. Katherine J. Lathrop Robert Donald Murphy University of Michigan Kitty Known by all, liked by all Kitty has been just about tops among the girls of the class of 1940. In addition to maintaining a high degree of scholarship, Katherine has entered whole-heartedly into practic- ally all school activities. The G. A. A., the Chatter Board, the Dramatic Club and the musical groups have all profited by her qualities of leadership and willingness to serve the common cause. Gloria Elizabeth Leonard Traphagen Gl0r Sweetness and sincerity first of all Gloria is the slim girl whose clothes have that certain smartness which only' a born artist can achieve. This talent for dress desiyzninyz she hopes to develop in courses of commer- cial art at the Traphairen Art School in New York. Gloria has taken an active part in all G. A. A. activities and enjoys all sports both in and out of school. Alice Eleanor Lum College Alice To be gentle is the mark of a Lady An unusuully vivacious manner adds charm to this busy senior's many' contacts. Alice is president of her Young' Peo- ples' Orizanization and is very active in its support. As a Fresh- man. she served as class secretary, and during her Senior year has been an able member of the Chatter Board. She has sunii in the Girls' Glee Club and the A Cappella Choir, and last year won a place in the New Jersey All State Chorus. Add to this a general participation in the G. A. A. activities and the main- tenance of a high scholastic standing. Alice's special interests are music, art, and readiml. Dorothy Thelma Major College D0t The surest way not to fail is to determine to succeed If there had been a drawing club at C. H. S., Dot would have been one of its members. There were no if's about the G. A. A. --Dot knows- because she was in it for four years. Yes, drawing and sports have been two of Dot's major interests'--no pun intended. She tried sinking and evidently liked lt. beCal1S9 she has been active in the Glee Club for three years, and A Cappella Choir for two. College Murph Wit is an unexpected explosion of thought Have you seen any' of Murph's clever stories accompanied by sketches in the Chatter '? Bob's quite a wit, and combining this with his artistic ability, he has become a really catchy cartoonist. A Chatter Board worker and a good student, Bob still finds time to work at his hobby, model building. Besides this, he's an ice hockey and horse-back riding enthusiast. Thomas Frederick Murphy New York University Tom The more a man thinks, the less he talks After seeing: his actinir in the last school play we can rest assured that Tom will make at good diplomat. He has a national interest in politics and foreign affairs, as is shown by his col- lection of newspaper articles on foreign happenings. To supple- ment his journal ol' foreign news, Tom collects maps which will clarify the reports. He is developing an ability for meeting statesmen by participating in the activities at Pyramus Hi-Y. His ideal vacation will be a drive from northern Alaska to the extremity of South America. Lucille E. Nordenholt College Ceal From a little spark may burst a mighty flame Ceal is that small, energetic senior who has been an en- thusiastic member ol' many organizations in hiyrh school. For four years she has belonged to the G. A. A.. in which she was team captain during: the hockey season, and secretary-treasurer this year. Besides this, shc has been a member of the Blue Triangle, the Dramatic Club, and the Sub-Deb Club. Gerard John Rau Undecided Jerry Men of few words are the best 'men Jerry is that quiet fellow who can often be found behind the candy stand. Although he did not join any' of the musical or- rzanizations. Jerry does have an interest in listening' to music. He is also interested in coaxing seeds into full-grown plants- - and disoourairinpz weeds from doimr the same. Besides his kar- deniniz. he enjoys swinging a fishing rod. It seems that every- body joins so e club: Jerry chose the well-known 4-H Club. :Mi-e ' li NJ , '-'1-nuff , t -F4 ',. A..7.0'.A.4,7QJ ' 72.5, - H Lathrop L rffi nard L ilri 1 Major lt.Murpl1y T.

She has belonged to the Dramatic Club, and for the last two years has been an ardent worker on the Chatter Board. Carol's sideline and pet hobby centers on animals, for she has owned goats, rabbits, dogs, cats, mice, and guinea pigs. Good natured Carol has won the friendship of C. H. S. with her bubbling humor and quick wit. Lloyd Roper Undecided Lloyd I bear a charmed life Coming to Chatham from Madison four years ago, Lloyd became a valuable member of the Dramatics Club. He has handled several important parts with the ability of a veteran actor. Besides this, Lloyd has an excellent voice, which won him a place in the All-State Chorus of '38-'39, after which he returned to the music organization at C. H. S. to become Hon- orary-President of the Male Glee Club. A member of the Morristown Choral Society, Lloyd sang in their presentation of Verdi's Requiem. Robert Hugh Rose II Newark College of Engineering Rosie Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm Bob has rendered Very valuable services to the Dramatic Club during his Junior and Senior years. In this organization he was a particularly important member of the stage, carpenter, and electrian's crews. Many tricky innovations can be traced to his fertile ingenuityf Being musically minded as well Bob belonged to the Glee Club and Choir. I-le was President of the Model Railroad Club and a member of the Radio Club. As you can guess, his special interests and hobbies are radio, building intricate models of railroads, photography, and electricity. William John Ryan University of Delaware 'tBi1l A man is not always asleep when his eyes are shxut Bill entered Chatham High in his Senior year. At St. Rose in Belmar, New Jersey, where he previously attended school, Bill was manager of the basketball and football teams. He joined the 4-H Club in Chatham and the Model Building Club. As his rr'e'nbership in this last club indicates, he is an avid model airplane builder. He is also not averse to hunting and salt-water Fishing in the proper seaso-ns. Bill is noted for his wit and his ability to get along with people. . pr DJ' Margaret Scott - Undecided Scotty A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance After being away for several years, Scotty came bacl-L to Chatham to finish high school here as a Senior. Good-natured and cheery, she has made many friends at C. H. S. and has become interested in the Dramatic Club in which she serves on the Make-up Committee. As a member of the G. A. A., Scotty is particularly fond of basketball and baseball. Joseph Thomas Scott Casey Jones School of Aeronautics t'Scottie Leisure is the best of all possessions You can't guess what other hobby competes with ra.dio and model boats for Torn's spare time fairplanes, big and little. It's not just to fool you into thinking that he likes planes that Tom belongs to the Morristown Model Airplane Club and the Kresge Aero Club. He is also a member of the American Stores Bowl- ing League. Perhaps it is because he wants to develop an ear that will tell him when his engine isn't acting quite right, but we'll bet that it's a genuine interest in music that caused Scottie to join the Glee Club. Margaret Ellen Siebert Junior Centenary College Peggy A dark-haired lass is she, and just as merry as any girl could be The Chatham Red Cross has had the good fortune to enlist the interest of Peggy Siebert. She has been a willing worker in its behalf for the past four years and served as president of the school division during her Junior year. This cheery, friendly girl is an ardent horsewoman who has won numerous cups and ribbons in the horse shows of the Watchung Riding and Driving Club. The Blue Triangle, the Dramatic Club. and the all im- portant Hot Dog Committee have had the benefit of her efficient help and peppy personality. William A. Singer Undecided Bill Well-timed silence is more eloquent than speech Whether in school or on the job , Bill remains quiet, good humorcd, and eflicient.

Listen my children, and you shall hear Of the class that leaves the school this Of how we worked so hard to rate So we'd be able to graduate. year, The Freshman year was lots of fun, Our building then was Number One . That year we went in half-day sessions, Half-day at home, half-day at lessons. Going in the moming was just a lark But in the aftemoon we went home in the dark. In dramatics and music we were kept quite busyg Between sports and studies we got pretty dizzy. W'ithout class officers we were at a loss So our homeroom teachers acted as boss. Mr. Davis was the teacher so brave, W'ho helped Mr. MacMurray make us behave. This year seemed like a day to pass And soon we were in the Sophomore class. That year we held an election, It really was no fake. The President was Don Bender, Vice-President, Thayer Drake. Miss Mueller and Mr. MacMurray Were homeroom teachers in charge. Upon the list of the Honor Roll The Sophomore column was large. Both boys and girls went out for sports, For Orchestra and Band. How we managed this with lessons Is hard to understand. The play that year was Growing Pains . Our class had members in it. Of course it was a huge success, Enjoyable every minute. The year sped by on streamlined wings., Exams soon came along. But then they all were over, And the Sophomore year was gone. Uur Junior year was coming up. lust two more years to go. W'hether we should feel glad or sad We really didn't know. Mr. MacMurray and Mr. Beaudry .Malory 16 Took on the pleasant UD chore Of being our homeroom teachers, We've enjoyed no others more. That Fall we had a party, The ocean was our theme. The fish we hung upon the wall Were like a horrid dream. That year our marks were very good, Lots of studying was done. Then when the grades were counted up The Honor Roll Cup we'd won. Drake, Sacco, Zecchini and Budlong Were the officers of our class. In June when the World's Fair opened, The class attended en masse . The Senior year at last was here, We hoped to make it our best. WI e wished to be outstanding, Remembered by all the rest. With Mr. Lynch and Miss Partridge We spent our Senior Year. I'm sure that when we graduate, They'll both ustand up and cheerw. We had another party, Thanksgiving was the season, So pilgrims and Indians decked the walls, fThere was no other reason il. The officers that we elected Were the same as the year before. No need to worry about a third term., Since we wouldn't be here any more. We still had our interest in music, And went right along with dramatics, And though it is needless to mention, In sports we were classed as fanatics. Wie went to New York to see 'SHan1leI. And had a wonderful day. Some of the girls would go again To see Maurice Evans play. Although we look to the future, Wie all are sad, I guess, To think that this is our last year In the halls of C.

It is the connecting link be- tween the Board of Education and the student body. It discusses school problems and suggests solutions. This year the Advisory Board has been led by the Senior Class President, Thayer Drake. At the beginning of the year, some of our famous jitterbugs wanted to form a Swing Club. The Ad- visory Board approved of the Swing Clubg Thurs- day noons and the girls' half of the gym provided the time and place for Chatham High to let off steam. The next duty of the A. B. was to settle the question: 'iShould football be re-established in C. H. Sf? Representatives from the Eighth and Freshman classes talked during one meeting on this question, telling of their hopes for the future, but after the Advisory Board and the Board of Educa- tion had discussed the matter, the question was dropped. Each year we have had a Vocational Guidance Conference, to help ,the students decide what voca- tion they are most interested ing but this year the 22 general feeling of the Advisory Board was that two conferences of this sort would not be very benefi- cial, since many of the students have already at- tended three of them. As a result of this feeling, it was decided that we should not have a confer. ence this year. A Sub-Freshman Day for the eighth graders from the Township School, St. Patrick's School, and the Chatham School was sponsored by the A .B. to help them become acquainted with some of our teachers and classes. During the aftemoon the Dramatic? Club presented its play What A Life, and followa ing it refreshments were served. Our school has purchased a new Public Address System and we are proud to say that it was pro- cured through the efforts and cooperation of the entire student body, including the G. A. A. Hot Dog Fund and the proceeds from the Magazine Drive of 1937. The Advisory Board will appoint an Electrical Committee, a group of people suited to the task of taking full charge of the P. A. System. Under Dr. ,Ieter's guidance the Advisory Board has again been a successful clearing house for school business. 1 Clmue, vf?.,a,.J With this yearbook the Chatter completes its eleventh successful year. Several changes in print- ing and publication have been made which have added materially to the organizationis success. The first of these was the switch from regular printing to reproduction by the photostat process, which has enabled us to include art and photography to a much greater extent, and has brought about a considerable financial saving. Another innovation was the spreading of the first three issues at wider intervals over the school year, thus utilizing more of the good writing produced by the students. This method of photostating has greatly increased the work of the staff, especially that of the typists. It has been their duty to type perfectly and within definite dimensions all of the copy just as it was reproduced in the magazine, and this took many hours of genuine hard work. These girls, Beth Hansen, Adeline Broadley, Naomi Weeks, and Cor- rine Brancheau, and any others who helped out at times, deserve great credit for their work. Credit is due also to the artists, Connie Budlong and Don Bender, who did the advertisements, covers, page headings, and many of the illustrations, and who helped so much in the layout.

The other officers of the club this past year were as follows: Leonard D'Ooge, vice-president, Nancy Ireland, secretary, Whlifred Jackson, treasurer, Don Spiller, business manager, and Miss Edith Miles, director and faculty adviser. The committee chairmen were Marguerite Burton, properties, -Charles Drake, electrician, Rodman Heu, carpen- ters, Clara Gehring, painters, Lorraine Kemble, make-up, and Ellenore Gabriel, news reporter. Our first production this year was an adapted version of Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew, which we presented on December 7, 1939, to the parents and several of the leading organizations of Chatham. The cast was as follows: Nancy Ireland, Katherine, Leonard D'0oge, Petruchio, W'inifred Jackson, Bianca, Lee Pettingill, Lucentio, Don Spiller, Grumio, Allan Trimpi, Senor Baptista, Marjorie Mealey, Senora Minola, and Linda Bette Whitfield, Curtis. Almost immediately after the presentation of the Taming of the Shrew, we started working on our spring play, What A Life, starring the popular radio, stage, and screen character, Henry Aldrich. Juvenile leads and nine other bit parts were played by members of the new Junior High Dramatics Club. The parts requiring older students were dra- matized by members of the Senior High Club. The cast from the Senior High was as follows: Mr. Bradley, principal, Thomas Murphy, Mr. Nelson, assistant principal, Charles Drake, Miss Shea, sec- retary, Ellenore Gabriel, Mr. Patterson, history teacher, Lloyd Starck, Miss Eggleston, teacher, Lor- raine Kemble, Mr. Vecchitto, Henry Westewelt, Miss Wheeler, music teacher, Linda Bette Whit- field, George Biggelow, student, George Norden- holt, Mrs. Aldrich, Nancy Ireland, Mr. Ferguson, detective, Rodman Heu, and Bill Green, Don Spill- er. The Junior High players were Henry Aldrich, Richard Newell, Barbara Pearson, Marion Arnold, Miss Pike, teacher, Elizabeth Maze, Gertie, student, Arlene Segal, and Cynthia Pettingill. Other stud- ents in the play were Herrick Drake, Alice Reed, and Virginia Brougham. Both plays were huge successes. and our box of- fice showed receipts of nearly 3300. The splendid publicity this year was largely t,he work of the pre- sident. We of the Dramatic are all sorry to see Allan T1'impi leave us although we are certain that our next year's officers will be as competent as this year,s staff has been.

Then, too, with the veterans' hospital in our own locality, we have taken pride in seeing that these victims of war are aided in every way that we can, either by entertaining them or by tak- ing happiness to them in small but appreciable surprises. In September the Red Cross, in order to start things rolling, elected four sturdy officers to be the framework of the organization. They were presi- dent, Nancy Ireland, vice-president, Dick Bartholo- maeg secretary, Betty Headley, and treasurer, Lois Hinds. Soon after this election four representatives, Nancy Ireland, Nancy Goulet, Betty Headley, and Lewis Schrumpf went to Allenhurst to a conven- tion. Coming back from there, they were full of ideas, and the next proposition was carrying them out. 26 It was arranged that we sponsor an assembly pro- gram and for this our president secured Dr. Gilbert from Drew University to speak to us about the Red Cross and the work it does to care for the victims of pestilence, Hood, fire, and war. Also we selected our home room representatives to increase our membership when we meet every other Monday. At Thanksgiving time we made favors for the dining room tables at Lyons Hospital for the vet- erans. The Wednesday before Thanksgiving sev- eral members delivered them. While they were there they were taken through the different build- ings by an orderly. They noticed the pleasant en- vironment of the veterans and the marvelous work that is bing done for them. As usual we sent representatives to the big con- vention, held every year at Washington, D. C. Nancy Ireland and Nancy Goulet were chosen, and they came back with many suggestions to make our organization bigger and better next year. With all this behind us and next year ahead of us, in our ,small buit ever increasing organization, we hope to expand and bring about a more pleas- ant atmosphere in a war clouded nation. 1 gramua i-5 Living up to its past reputation, the Pyramus Hi-Y completed another year of well-rounded ac- tivities. Because of the efforts of the individual members and the willingness of helpful Chatham- ites, the Hi-Y has had very interesting meetings and has obtained excellent speakers on all occasions. Some of the persons to whom the Hi-Y is in- debted in this respect are the following: Mr. Francis Ruzicka, who told about our educa- tional system Mr. Charles Brewer, who talked about life in- surance Mr. Arch. W'hitehouse, who spoke about writing for magazines Mr. Sherman Ceer, who spoke about Abraham Lincoln Judge Tinney, who explained the art of fencing Mr. William Winter, who spoke of the import- ance of merchant marine Mr. Curt Von Zastrow, who told experiences of whaling Mr. Lawrence Macflregor, who explained the banking system The Hi-Y is also indebted to the Menis Club who permitted the group to ulook ini, during some of their entertaining programs. With the leadership and guidance of Nlr. Lath- rop, the group succeeded admirably in all its un- dertakings. Most of the fellows were present at a majority of the meetings and whenever the 1-lub undertook a project, the members always proved willing and cooperated whole-heartedly. This year the Pyramus Hi-Y took part in all the usual Hi-Y outings with more tllan the usual a- mount of enthusiasm. All members attended foot- ball games at Rutgers and Princeton and engaged actively in inter-Hi-Y basketball . The group was well represented at the various Hi-Y conferences and meetings held during the past season. Starting the year with fourteen members, the Pyrarnus Hi-Y gained four new recruits at the ,hall year mark, making a total membership of eighteen. Olficers of the year's club were Bill Ekegren, President, John Bacchus, Vice President, Bob Trimpi, Sports Manager, Thayer Drake, Entertain- ment Chairmang Bob Wylie, Advisory Board Rc- presentative, Don Bender, Secretary-Treasurer.

They are President, Margaret Stanekg Vice Presi- dent, Barbara Kelly, Secretary, Lorraine Davisg and Treasurer, Dorothy Philhower. The members in the club are .Margaret Stanek, Barbara Kelly, Lorraine Davis, Linda Vlfhitfield, Patricia Faller, Patricia Reilly, Anne Reilly, Lorraine Kemble, Ruth Bock, Phyllis Murphy, Betty Murphy, Gladys Singewald, Shirley Campbell. The club has had two leaders, first, Miss Margaret Barnum and now Miss Marion Strong. Wie have had a very active and interesting year. The club went up to Dover on Play Day and had a very enjoyable time getting acquainted with other girls from other Girl Reserve Clubs and playing games. Another of our activities was a very suc- cessful cake sale, the profits of which were used for a trip to New York where the girls attended a broadcast. On May 3 a group of girls went to Dover for the annual Girl Reserve Conference. The girls stayed at the homes of Dover residents for a week-end. On Friday evening there was a banquet and on Satur- day a play was given for the guests of the Confer- ence All the girls enjoyed their visit and are look- ing forward to a week-end at Camp, an occasion which is also annual. On May 18 the girls took a bicycle hike out to Pat Falleris home where they had a 'hot dogi' roast. The appetites were hearty and everyone had a lot of good fun. Last Christmas Eve the girls sang Christmas carols under Betty Peuker's win- dow and took her small gifts. The members later exchanged gifts among themselves. We have also gone swimming at the Morristown Y. M. C. A. Our year has been very full and we are looking forward to doing many things together again next year. Back R Whitfield, A. Reilly.

In its early stages, the club consisted of five membersg namely, Donald Bender, Henry Wester- velt, Donald Erskine, Joseph Gentile, and Richard Colburn. The club did not maintain any strict routine and its meetings were most informal. Since its earliest days its membership has constantly changed. During the winter months, little model airplane activity was possibleg however, some mod- els were completed in the shop and others were built by members in their homes. As the spring passed and the sunny, dry days came more and more frequently, the interest in model airplane building grew until, at present, the club consists of a rather indefinite number of people who tum up whenever they can to talk about models and to build new planes. Most of the construction work is now done at home, but the club is sure to hear the news when one of its mem- bers succeeds in breaking some records in place of merely breaking his model airplane. At times during the school year other activities interfered with the schedules of the Airplane Club to such an extent as to make meeting impossible and interest in the club was reduced. The re- awakening of interest in recent months is very heartening, with more fellows starting on model work.

The sec- tions comprised of first and second Sopranos and first and second altos had a regularity of size and volume. This made for the balance desired by all organizations of this kind. Meeting regularly dur- ing the third period on Mondays, the club has un- dertaken many interesting and varied songs. Some of these are taken up merely for the technical dif- ficulties involved and as practice in sight-reading. Others, however, are definitely worked on for a concert performance. The latter made up the se- lections presented by the Glee Club at the Christ- mas concert and at the annual May Music Festival. Among these pieces are included 'il-louse, Good F olk, Adoration of the Shepherds, Cold De- cember's Wintry Blast,', Prayer from Hansel and Cretelf' fa request numberl , The Starw and Alice Blue Gown. At one of our rehearsal periods in the fall, Mr. E321 would be greatly improved if the girls were dressed uniformly at a public performance. After much discussion and planning, a committee was formed and was headed by Mary Stettler and Lucille Nor- denholt. A dress design was agreed upon, material selected, and an insignia chosen. The girls for their mothersj then set to work to make the dresses for the Christmas Concert. They were practically completed at that time and the Glee Club made such a fine appearance that there were many com- pliments. The Glee Club felt amply repaid for their efforts and determined to have all of the dresses finished for the May Festival. Each year a number of the girls try out in the auditions for the N. J. All State Chorus and in the past have been singularly successful. This year's chorus members were Marjorie Mealey, Carol Be- thune, Sylvia Stuckleman, Georgia Strong, Alice Lum, Wilda Curley, Betty Haley, and Ruth Hjort. .,.' ga, cm The Senior Male Glee Club concluded its year with the Music Festival on May 10, except for its participation with the A Cappella Choir in the Trenton Choral Festival on May 18. During the year in the Tuesday and Friday re- hearsals, a great deal of material was covered, both in preparation for public perfonnances and for the club's own enjoyment. The following selections were prepared for the Christmas program: Carol of the Christmas Presents , an Andalusian Folk Tune, Noel of the Bressan Waits, Darciens, and March of the Three Kings, Bizet version, arrang- ed by D .Stanley Smith. The Festival marked the debut of two soloists, John Bacchus and Leonard D'Ooge, who discussed the entire story of Jonah in M. Bartholomewis ar- rangement of the negro spiritual, Humble The other selection on the program was a rousing Coss- ack song, Dance, My Comradesf' by Richard Ben- net. In addition, the Glee Club appeared before the University of Life with Those Pals of 0urs,'7 Brown-Creators-Cole, Rangers' Song, Tierney, and Nut Brown Maiden with Noble Cain's Sha- dow March and the Rangers' Song . Among the other songs sung in rehearsal were the following: Three Chafers, H.

The Chatham All-School Band is a most import- ant part of our high school life in that it is such a worth-while and pleasant way of improving all up- and-coming musicians. It is made up of sixty-eight students, not only in high school, but from fifth grade on up, and is the largest of the instrumental organizations. Charles D'Ooge, ,40, was a most ef- ficient president this year, with Wvilda Curley, 941, assisting him as Vice-President. Both have done an excellent job isl managiig the busiiess for our concerts. On January 19, the All-School Band presented its annual concert, offering a most interesting pro- show the gold lining and the MC. H. S. , navy hats with visors and fancy trimmings, and white dresses 01' trousers undemeath. Plans have been made for the Band to go, on May 25, to the World's Fair in New York to give a special concert. This concert is to be repeated on May 29 for the public of Chatham. The Band will present a stimulating program of impressive over- tures, light novelties, and vivid marches. New members are constantly being added to the Band's personnel, as well as new instruments. Through the January concert's proceeds the Band has been able to purchase two new French homs and a beautiful new double Bb sousaphone, all of the best make. The Band is steadily becoming a better organization, and, with new instruments and increased talent, the standards of perfection are growing higher than ever. gram full of variety and color.

Our pro- gram has been exceptional in its interesting and more advanced music. Two special assembly programs have been given with the support of these soloists: Iola Schipler, violin, Wilda Gurley, French hom, George Jame- son, clarinet, Georgia Strong, tuba, Charles D'Ooge, trombone, and Betty Haley, cello. Mention must also be made of the pianists who so ably accompan- ied the soloists. They were Katherine Lathrop, Alex Koukly, Wilda Gurley, and Paul Atterizlg. Among the selections played in assembly by the orchestra were several Sousa marches, Roberts' Plantation Overture , Gould's Pavanne g 'Abe Shepherd King by Mozart, a medley of gypsy tunes, 'sGypsy Overture, by Isaac, a selection of some of the popular songs from Gilbert and Sullivan's popular operetta, Wfhe Mikado , and 5'Over the Rainbow from the movie, The Wizard of Oz .

When we began, there were fifty members which grew throughout the year to a total number of fifty- four. We had twenty-two violins, two cellos, four trombones, six trumpets, seven clarinets, two mello- phones, one saxophone, four pianists, and the drums. During the year this number was increased by a saxophone, a clarinet, a viola, and a mello- phone. Two of the members who formerly played mellophones have now come out with two shiny new French horns. We held our regular practices every Tuesday and Thursday afternoons from 3 to 4. We also played for assembly every other Wednesday. At our first practice we chose a head librarian, Betty Bishop, and two assistants, Edward Miles and ,Ioan Bates, a recorder, Barbara Bates, and an assistant, Betsy Hogemang and seven able property men, Jack Ire- land, Arthur Chivarou, Charles Rapa, Arthur Whitehouse, Keith Steele, Eddie Miles, and Dick Erskine. These property men handle the setting of the stage for each rehearsal and for assembly quickly and efficiently. We started the year by brushing up a few marches such as On Parade, Pacific Clipper, President Lincolnf' and Rangers, which we played in assembly. Then we began to work on some real pieces, Sea Bubbles by Herfurth, Chu Shanf' and Moonbeams by Sordillo. After the excitement of Christmas was over, we settled down to work on various types of pieces from which we chose two for our May Festival. Those chosen were The Festival March by Mendelssohn and The Slavonic Dance' 'by Balikov. We were glad to welcome Mr. Monez this year as our music practice teacher. We hope he enjoyed his stay with us as much as we did with him. Often times at rehearsals, Mr. Collicott would let some of the students try their hand at leading the orches- tra in a march. Although it was fun, it really isn't as easy as it looks. We have spent a very happy year working to- gether with Mr. Collicott. If36:I, 5 'S'l9OlQf7S Y Xiefwlw e6I'LdJel'J 'This year the Chatham Cheerleading Squad in- cluded four girls and four boys. They were Doris Kerwin, Captaing Beverly Burton, Judy Smythe, Marguerite Burton, John Bacchus, Chuck Drake, Lee Pettingill, and Bob Huxham. Under the able leadership of their Captain, Sis Kerwin, they cheered at the home soccer games and all the basketball games both home and away. The soccer season was started oif with a snappy Pep Meeting at which the squad taught the Junior and Senior High School some new cheers, plus the N5 exixgxgh. 38 'ov' X196 45329 sid 9 Dtaye. cfm l B- 9 Bacchus, sewn' old faithfuls for the benefit of the incoming Fresh- men. Then they led a big parade around the ath- letic field, preliminary to the first soccer game of the season. Later on in the Basketball Season the squad held another Pep Meeting to teach more new cheers to the whole school and to spur the team on to victory, the great event being the Chatham-Madison game. The cheerleaders of the past season have been particularly outstanding for their pep and ability to arouse the student body into a shouting, wildly enthusiastic crowd. J ya., . if ,ff L f ' i on .

Z?.mL.J About forty boys reported to Coach Fries when the baseball season opened. Because of rain, the team had little practice. The first game ended in victory for Chatham over a Drew's Junior Varsity by a score of 15-5. While it is not safe to make predictions from the results of one game, this year's team seems to be a hitting team. Bob Gunsel, sophomore catcher, led the batting with four hits in four times at bat. Altogether, Chatham had six- teen hits, building up a lead of 5-0 in the first in- ning. Ed Nixon pitched the first four innings, and Tommy James finished the game. Both hurlers kept the Drew batters in hand, allowing few hits. Chatham's base-runners ran wild, frequently scoring on poor throws by the Drew players. The high school team was without the services of Roy Nunn, veteran pitcher, who was confined to the stands because of an arm injury. Bob Trimpi seems like a classy second baseman and a hard hitter. Bill Carlone and Ed Nixon give I 39 strong support to the outfield and Bud Sacco, who is playing third base, is another able star. At present, a number of Sophomores and Fresh- men, out for the team, are showing up well in prac- tice. This forecasts good baseball teams in the future. SCHEDULE April 26-Drew University J.

They were unfortunately afflicted with the same ailment that plagued the British trooper who pointed his gun at Barbara F ritchie,-they could- n't shoot! Ably piloted by Captain Badgley, the Senior Team made a highly creditable showing in team- work and passing. Though they usually came out on the lower end of the score, the girls collected big dividends in pleasure and- satisfaction. A nu- cleus of .the faithful showed up at every practice despite a long drawniout string of unfortunate and varied injuries that extended from the first game of the season through to the final whistle in the annual Senior Girls'-Boys' h Game. Two series of games were played by the Seniors this year. The first group was comprised of inter- school games with neighboring teams of Buxton Country Day School, Summit High School, Madison High School, Mountain Lakes High School and Morristown High School. Scores resulting from these contests were: I 40 Chatham - Buxton ...... ....,,, 1 6 6 Chatham - Summit ....... ....... 1 8 25 Chatham - Morristown .........,..,,,, 3 9 Chatham - Madison .................... 21 14 Chatham - Mountain Lakes ........ 17 9 An intra-mural tournament made up the second group. This was played off with games between girls' class teams. The scores were: Senior - Freshman .................,...,., 16 6 Senior - Sophomore ...... 7 10 Senior - Junior ...,.............,.,.,.,,,,, 6 21 The Senior Girls' Basketball Team completed the season with the following members: Forwards: Beverly Burton, Florence Badgley, Barbara Judd, Joan Klocksin, Katherine Lathrop, and Mary Stettler. Guards: Cormie Budlong, Ruth Hjort, Dorothy Major, Carol Roever, and Gloria Trow- bridge. Long after all scores are forgotten, there will re- main with each player the memory of the cherished companionship of her teammates and of the inspir- ational guidance of Miss Caswell. 1 gi A A st.. The G. A. A. presented 'LKaleidoscope as the 1940 version of its annual show. Kaleidoscope,' was a super-circus in -fourteen colossal acts, complete from side show to blaring brass band. The bleachers were crammed with an appreciative crowd that spontaneously applaud- ed each successive act. The show led off with a big parade made up of the entire circus cast, which then broke up into individual and specialty acts including the five trained seals, a troupe of performing bears, expert tumbling acrobats, groups of dancers, the G, A. A. Mountiesn on their bucking bikes, the G. A. A. Tinware Symphony, and a superb troupe of hilar- ious clowns. On the more formal side there was an intricate demonstration of marching, tap-dancing, and a costumed history of the American Dance from Sweet to Swing . Programs fo rthe evening were gay clowns block- printed on paper bags filled with peanuts, which were hawked throughout the performance by white- coated vendors, who were one of the evening's hits. The circus motif predominated in the decorations that transformed the gym into a convincing big topn. Huge circus-animal cut outs, baby elephants, grandfather elephants, lions, tigers, giraffes, pen- guins, bears, and monkeys paraded along the side walls. Brilliant balloons floated over the crowd. Feature acts were spotlighted with colored lights in professional technique by the indispensable elec- tricians' crew, perched in impromptu crow's-nests. Over all spread the ubig top , a masterly creation' of vari-colored crepe-paper strips, symbolic of the unity of tl1e splendid school spirit which made'the Kaleidoscope such a success. This spirit was ap- parent not only in the performers, but also in the enthusiastic response from the audience made up of parents, faculty, high school students and small-fry. Likewise this teamwork was evidenced in the in- valuable support given the project by those many invisible workers behind the scenes.
