With Jim Matthews and Roy Dickinson as our guiding inspirations, we hopefully moved in- to the ranks of high school students. Marty Kelly held the sportlight in our Freshman year, being on the soccer squad and several other teams. With Jim Matthews, John Jaycox, Roy Dickinson, and Marty Williams on the Advisory Board, we fared quite well with the problems we had. Something new in the way of entertainment was presented this year, in cooperation with Madison High School, under the direction of our new Spanish teacher, Mrs. F errucci. It was the Spanish Fiesta, which provided a program of Spanish and South American songs and dances in a colorful and authentic atmosphere, complete with a bull- fight. Many Freshmen took part in the Fiesta and Bob Ansley and Alice Collyer, two members of our class, will always be remembered for their performance of the Mexican hat dance. Of course, we can't leave out the G. A. A. Show, which this year was the. Victory Parade, representing the dances and customs of all our Allies. The show was an exciting event for the girls because it was their first in high school. When the year was over we left, hoping that next year's class would have as much fun and get as much out of 'the Freshman year as we had. - SQOPHOMORE YEAR We launched our second year in high school with Marty Kelly, Bob Owens, and Dotty Beck in the executive department. To keep us in line we had Mr. Beaudry as class adviser and Doc Spicer, Mrs. Hopper, and Mrs. F errucci as home room teachers. Starting the sports season off with a bang, C. H. S.'s incomparable soccer team fought its way up to become state champions, with Marty Kelly again representing our class. It certainly was a proud day for C. H. S. when we were presented with that shining gold trophy to add to our collection. A new activity started with the organization of the club program, the Spanish Club being the most popular. Another new addition was the weekly paper, C. H. S. on Review, a much appreciated publication that filled what had been a gap in the literary efforts of the school. This was the year that saw the beginning of the Igloo, the students' Saturday night canteen, which was a big success. Did you see those pictures of it that appeared in the Newark Sunday Call? An unprece- dented situation appeared this year in the form of a flu epidemic which hit Chatham and kept the happy students out of school for an unex- pected weekis vacation. Some of the members of our class attended and enjoyed the Sen- ior prom, which was held in the Beechwood Hotel in Summit. Then came our class party, an event which we had skipped the year before, and which we, therefore, doubly enjoyed. After the boys had thor- oughly trounced the girls at line basketball, the knocks were presented, one being a bottle of glue given to Moo MacBain to keep her famous tooth in place. 1315 CLASS HISTCRY Then the GAA show, As Time Goes Byf, in which our now- famous barbershop quartette composed of Alice, Demie, Put, and Carrie, made its first, but definitely not its last, appearance. We Sopho- mores then, with half of our high school days behind us, began to look forward to our Junior year. JUNIOR YEAR This year our class was led by Bob Barnum, an able man. :Our vice-president was Connie Kymer, the secretary was Mary Lou Carring- ton, and the treasurer was Bobbie Melander. , Mr. Beaudry was again our class adviser, which accounts for our leading such good lives. He was also one of our home room teachers, along with Miss Eacovalle and Mr. Spicer. Ted Lemcke, Bob Barnum, Bob Owens, Fred Wainwright, Marty Kelly, Johnny J acox and Carsen Plaehn played on the soccer team and Kelly was put on the state team. When the soccer team journeyed to West Point to play the Plebes, we followed along. Our basketball team also made an impressive record, getting as far as the semi-finals in the state tournament. The Junior girls were not idle all this time, their basketball team being undefeated and the champs for 1944-1945. At Christmas time, something new was added. All the home rooms were decorated by the students. Everyone was asking, Does your home room look different lately ? Another new feature this year was ice-hockey. The boys built a rink in the athletic field and played very well. Our class was represented by Macky Greenidge, Johnny J aycox, Norman Goetchius, and Jerry King. At our class party in March, the gym was decorated very gaily with a new novelty called no decorationsf' Doc Spicer was definitely the hit of the evening by providing a little entertainment on the piano. Bob Ryerson and Skippy Knowles kept the audience in stitches while they dressed in feminine attire. The Junior girls had a whooping good time being Indians in the G.A.A. show '6Let Freedom Ring, which had a patriotic theme. The end of the year approached and the class picked out its Senior class ring after much, '6Which one are you choosing? lt's too big, etcf' For weeks the girls went around with books on their heads to get in shape for Garland Girl tryouts. This great honor and privilege was attained by only fifteen of our beauties. Although the year was over, would we ever forget-the surprise party for Bill Bayreuther one noon, after which all the boys'Qleft fifth period English class looking green . . . the debate between Carsen and Roy in assembly, ending with Roy's impersonations of war planes . . . the aa rose, is a rose, is a rose,', craze after Miss Partridge had intro- duced us to Gertrude Stein . . . Bag Graybach terrifying the student body by getting scarlet fever the day after the Prom? The future seniors spent the summer anticipating the last year of school. , 1 C323 L i I CLASS HISTQRY SENIOR YEAR Finally, and best of all, came our senior year. Carsen, our presi- dent, started us off with a roar by introducing an entirely new thing, short assemblies every 'luesday and Friday. All through the year we kept up this starting of new activities - the first Hallowe'en party sponsored by tl1e school, the milk bar, and the change to wearing caps and gowns at graduation. Again outstanding in tl1e field of sports, our championship soccer team, led by Marty Kelly, played through another successful season, the last game against the West Point plebes. That occasion provided an pleasant dayls outing for tl1e many ot' us who journeyed up to cheer our team-on. In March tl1e Basketball Banquet was give11, which was well-attended by seniors, who had an hilarious time. Beforehand, the senior girls had thoroughly beaten the boys in their amiual basketball game. 1 The class party was a gala affair, the theme being a Spanish night- club El Dorado. No one who was there can possibly forget that colorful floor show-Mary Lou's song, Bob Barnumls trumpet solo, the null fight, and the rest. 1 Several successful entertainments were given this year which sen- iors participated in. A few plays were presented by the speech classes for the student body and were very much enjoyed. The senior girlss had a last fling in their G.A.A. show, which was a big success as usual. This year the theme was Magazine Magic, the numbers representing many of the well-known magazines. In May came the annual May Festival, with all the music organizations taking part. Though we were all very busy, some of the Senior English classes found time to travel into New York to see Hamlet Everyone enjoyed it, the girls especially, who chalked up Maurice Evans as a threat to Gregory Peck. Then, in a last minute flurry of senior activities, the Prom, the Banquet, the Baccalaureate service, and graduation, we ended our last wonderful year in Chatham High. MILESTONES IN THE SENIOR YEAR Senior Day, when those poor, harassed seniors l1ad to teach classes and Roy, on demonstrating how to make a fire extinguisher in chem- istry, had the whole thing blow up in his face-The numerous peti- tions the 2nd period history class put before Doc, concerning every- thing from baseball games to changing the seating chart so that Ted Lemcke wouldn't be directly under Doc's eagle eye - .limmy Mc- Glumphy's faux pas while reading Hamlet, especially fLet's follow Gertrude! -The day Mary Lou Goett put up a new flag in Doc's room and stopped the class dead-The overpowering scent of Evening in Paris which flooded the main halls whenever Bette Ann Bey opened her locker too fast.

None of your soft glurpy stuff for us. Now back to our air show. Looking out over the wildly milling crowd, I see Claude Donaldson, the famous Planetary Pirate Pitcher, talking to Marty Kelly, the new assistant coach at C.H.S. Off to my left, near one of Bill Bayreutheris Candy Slot machines, are ,lean Hartig and Madelyn Trowbridge, Headmistresses of Pla- ehn's Progressive Kindergarten, buying candy for their cherubs. Sitting behind the post directly in front of me is Muriel MacBai::, the dress designer from Macy's basement, with her escort Chris McGlumphy, the wealthy South Sea Island owner. Eying Miss Mac- Bain's hat, which is exactly like hers, is Madame Josephine Ientile. the hat designer for Amelia Grace's Hasty Hat Hastablishment. Just a minute, ladies and gentlemen, I see that Malcolm Creenidge owner of the Acey Aircraft Corporation, is about to open the cere- monies. His secretary, Anne Putnam, is dashing after him, taking down everything helsays. He is now introducing Senator Robert H Barnum from New Jersey and Representative Samuel Fiery Fire- baugh from Virginia. fIt's been rumored that English teacher Pat Davis did Sam's ghost-writing for him.J 7 We interrupt this program to bring you an important news bul- letin: Flash: London-Foreign correspondent Gerry Moore broke the news today that a section of the sub-Atlantic tunnel from New York to Paris which was constructed by the U.S. engineer, Jerry King, has collapsed. Lt. Commander Robert Singer and his aide, Bernard Munkenbeck, are racing to the scene on the cruiser Chat- hamf' We now return you to the broadcast in progress. Keep tuned for further developments. Here we are back at the air show. The two Congressmen have fin- ished their speeches, and the crowd is beginning to wander toward the planes, following the chief test pilot of the Super Atomic Swish- er Plane, John Creighton. Lt. Colonel Bob Ansley of the U.S.M.C., who is a prospective buyer for the Corps, is with Mr. Creighton. Lets move a little closer so that I can hear what is being said about the plane. Carole Hagen, supersaleswoman for the Acey Aircraft Plane Corporation, is explaining a few of the new features of the plane. I will repeat as closely as I can the remarks she makes. The body was made from soy beans raised by Abbott Shilling and pro- cessed by the Gerweck Chemical Corporation. The most astound- ing feature of this plane is the propulsion unit designed by .lack Thatcher. It uses the amazing new fuel developed by the physicist C339 CLASS PRCDPHECY Beryl Smith and the chemist Lorraine Van Deusen with their lab technician, Marjorie Power. Alice Collyer did the interior decorat- ing in a beautiful shade of shocking pink. Harold Sheats and Carle- ton Lum, who put the engine together, had a little trouble because their primary training was in Model T's. Wait a second, folks, there seems to be a disturbance in front of us. Oh, I see itis those two pro- fessional hitch-hikers, 'l'ed Lemcke and Roy Dickinson being es- corted off the lield for the third time by the veteran policemen, Ray Guinter and Bill Cadmus. Speaking of policemen, it has been rumored that the famous woman spy from Utopia, Sonia Butcher, is in the crowd. Special Federal otticers have been posted at all planes. Just a minute folks! I see that test-pilot Creighton has climbed into the plane. He makes a comment about the pin-ups drawn by Carrie Bock that are in the cabin, straps himself in, and now, I believe, he's ready to take off. The ambulfance with Doctor Amy Black and Nurse Betty Murnane has just pulled up on the side of the field in case of any accident. Charlie lfisher, tl1e Wall Street tycoon, is taking bets on whether the plane will ily. 'l'he plane is starting up now. Housewife .lean Klepper is biting all her lingernails off because her home is at the end ot' the air field where the runway is. As the plhne rises and takes off only the chimney of her house, she relaxes. Nancy Martin, air stewardess, is watching fearfully because if the plane crashes she will be out of a job. The company will fold up if this plane is not a success. Journalist ,lean- ne McHugh is standing down near the runway with her Walkie-talkie set, in conversation with her editor. The plane is in the air now--it falters-seems to develop engine trouble. Rita Conkling is in the control tower talking to Creighton and telling him to try to come in. Clarence Broadwell, undertaker, and Herman Nauman, his florist, are gleefully rubbing their hands at the thought of all the business they may get. At last the tense moment is over, and every- one heaves a sigh of relief. The plane levels oll' and goes on smooth- ly. Dotty Beck, Bev Bradshaw, and Ruthie Brown, now coaching the cheerleaders at M.I.T., stand up and lead a Long cheer for test-pilnt Creighton! Dernie Ayars immediately begins planning a great celebration with Creighton as guest of honor. Bette Ann Bey, who makes running the C.H.S. mimeograph a real career, faints in- to Blanche Thorneris arms. Blanche immediately proves that she has learned something in C.H.S. by doing a beautiful job of band- aging her. She even puts on traction splints. I see that Connie Kymer has arrived and met Bob Barnum. At present, Miss Kymer, gym teacher, is engaged in demonstrating ex- ercises that will reduce Bobis senatorial bay window. Looking over one of the smaller planes are Rosalie Van Dyke and Phyllis Jaynes, social workers. They are doing a survey of social problems for Doc Eshelmanls U.S. History II classes. C395 1 CLASS PROPHECY Another flash from the sub-Atlantic tunnel. A busload of peo- ple have narrowly escaped injury in the catastrophe. Doctor Anna Haag was on the spot, but the only patient was Betty Ferrell's cello which had a slight chip in the lacquer. First aid was applied and the patient is now in good condition. 'lhe bus lost its tail-light in the accident, and for once funny man Bob Ryerson was stricken speechless ! Back to the show again, Florence Clark, owner of a race horse stable is out looking for a plane to carry her horses in. Near the liashiest of the planes are Editor of Allure, Bobbie Melander, and buyer for J. B. Upjohn, Ltd., Marcia Pearson, in deep consultation over the most appropriate clothes to be worn on the new plane. Over in the far corner of the field, I see the artistic crowd lboking rather bewildered by the scientific progress in the last fifteen years. Spanish singer Mary Lou Coett is telling accordionist Dotty Fry that unless she can get the services of physio-therapist Barbara Graybach after the crash, she had better not try to fly. Organist Elizabeth Kraus wants to buy a plane. She feels that after learning to use all the buttons, pedals, and what-have-you on her organ, fly- ing ought to be a cinch. Modern dancer Mary Lou Carrington is planning a dance based on her impressions of tl1e air show, and her friends are suggesting ideas. Now into the main office. Betty Gavin and Hannah Borst are taking the orders for various planes that are on display. Hockey coaches at Washington University, Ann Wagner and Betty Sullivan, decided after long deliberation that they needed a plane to get back to Chatham occasionally. They are first in line for the small three seater. The extra seat is for their hockey sticks. Bob fOwens, big game hunter, wants a small plane to take him to Africa. Shirley Weisgerber, in charge of big-game-hunters-going-to-Africa is giving him a big sales talkabout the plane with room for a live lion in it. Doris Hoerner, supposed to handle the customers, is twiddling l1er thumbs while Mildred Slloss, who handles loans, is trying to handle Carsen Plaehn. Over at another desk is Lois Cave, vice-president in charge of credit, arguing with Frank Petrock and John ,laycox over whether money coined at their ow11 South Sea Island is good in the United States. lt's an exciting scene, folks, everyone is rushing to get this super-stupendous new plane. One hour later Well, everybody has gone home now. The oflice is closed up and most of the lights are out. Ruth Cole is going around picking up the various articles that Chathamites have left behind them. Owners may redeem these articles by paying Miss Cole five cents per article.

VVeisge1'be1', .i'Llt11illl1, Miss Partridge, Miss Downs. Early in September, the President of the senior class and the Editor of the Chatter got together to appoint committee heads under whom every member of the senior class was to serve. These committees were to plan the senior activities during the year: the class party, the procuring of the rings and pictures, the prom, the banquet, and the heads of the various sections of the Chatter. Then the real work started. Progress was slow but continuous, and by the appointed deadline the Chatter was completed and ready for the press. The Chatter Board is grateful for the help of Miss Downs, who took care of the money matters re- garding the senior pictures and of Miss Partridge, the faculty adviser. With the cooperation of the staff and of many members of the class, this yearbook has been formed, a yearbook which has tried to catch the spirit of the Class of '46. PRESS CLUB The Press Club, of which Sam F irebaugh was editor-in-chief, was organized last fall to keep the town informed of the various school activities. This was ac- complished by articles written by students and printed in at least one of the local papers. Sports, clubs, class activities, special classes and the honor roll are a few of the subjects which were covered by the Club. The main purpose of the Press Club is not only to interest a student in newspaper work, but also to give actual experience in the field by writing articles and to teach one the importance of being prompt. Mrs. Lobell has been the faculty adviser in charge of the Press Club. C549 -1.. - . :uf-W ' - --in--,-nf --Av-vate' V. e Nl- -ra- First Row: Brown, Kymer, Wagner, Black, Bayreutlier, Mr. Eshelman, B.

This year the name of Student Council was substituted for Advisory Board. Under the guidance of Mr. Eshel- inan and the leadership of Carsen Plaehn, with Amy Black as secretary, Ann Wagner recorder, and Bill Bayreuther treasurer, the Council 'has accomplished many helpful and useful projects. Among the Council's functions are tl1e raising of money through the Activity Ticket, the sponsoring of the Employment Bureau, and tl1e task of acquainting incoming freshman with the school's traditions. The accomplishments of this year's Council include acquiring a standard school ring and making it possible for these rings to be obtained ill the junior year. The new method by which the president of the Council is elected makes possible closer cooperation from the student body. By sending students to ob- serve conditions in larger schools, the Council hopes to prepare future Councils with information for a more eflicient way of running a growing school. C559 L, v ..

S. formed a club, Los Buenos Vecinos de Chatham High under the supervision of Miss Cavaliere. The oliicers chosen were Nancy Carrington, president, Bob Hamlen, vice-presidentg Barbara Stitt, secretary, Stockton Atteridg, treasurer, and Jean Muchmore, publicity chairman. As stated in the club's constitution, regular meetings were held every other Tuesday at 3:15. By presenting programs throughout the year, by singing and listening to records of Spanish-American songs, by learning Latin American dances, and through other activities, we have attempted to create a better under- standing and knowledge of our Latin American neighbors, thus endeavoring to live up to our name- The Good Neighbors.

The officers elected were president, Betty Tooleg vice-president, Jack Haas, secretary, Barbara Miller, and treasurer, Betty ,lane Busch. Retaining the enthusiasm of our membership drive, we immediately launched our fall project of gathering knitted squares for an afghan. Other undertakings of the Red Cross were the decorating of Christmas menu covers for the Navy, the cheering up of Lyons Hospital with our nut and candy cups, decorated napkins, and tray favors, and the collecting of material for comic strip and joke booklets. The variety of projects and quantity of work accomplished this year have been possible only through the cooperation and attendance of interested and hardworking members and Mrs. Rumsey's untiring efforts.

NOTES The Chatham High Eskimos continued an aggressive sports campaign dur- ing the 1945-46 seasons but because last yearis nucleus of seniors was lacking the results did not show up in the win column. The soccer squad., however, kept its winning ways intact and, captained by Marty Kelly, it brought home six wlns, four ties, and two losses. The basketball story was not quite so bright. Coach Fries tried in vain to get his boys clicking but with only one returning veteran from last yearis 'tourney jaunt, it was an impossibility. But the Eskies refused to quit and often were referred to as the '4Giant Killers after successive victories over Wliarton, Morristown, and Regional, league leaders in their respective conferences. Hockey, though, constituted eleven wins, two losses, and a state champion- ship to our record. The newly organized track team under the leadership of Mr. Hemmerly was successful. Wfhat this year's teams gained in experience and training will show up in next year's win column as most of the fellows w'ho have participated in the vari- ous sports campaign were underclassmen. These fellows, though green this year, will be veterans next year and raring to go when the seasons open. C615 G. A. A. NOTES The officers elected last year were Connie Kymer, president, and Ann Wag- ner,-secretary-treasurer. This year has been a memorable one for us all. The G. A. A. was the host to the North Jersey Hockey Tournament, with two of our girls making the Honorary Team-Bev Bradshaw and Joan Hannum. Pat Davis was the captain of our successful hockey team. Much enjoyed by all was the Hockey-Soccer Banquet, ably served by the Home 'Economic Class. The basket- ball season under the captainship of Marcia Pearson also ended victoriously after games with Panzer, Westfield, Summit, and Caldwell. Magazine Magic, our annual show, under the direction of Teach and Miss Grove and with the help of Miss Cavaliere, was one of the best. We shall never forget the success and fun we had this year. ' T ACKNOWIJEDGMEN TS The Chatter Board and the Class of '46 express their appreciation to Mr. Bates for his pictures of the classes and organizations and to Mr. Bohrmann for his cooperation in printing this year book.
