XVe realize that, were it not for wholesome guidance and able instruction, we should not have attained the stage of development we have reached. To Mr. Drum, our superintendent, we wish to extend our gratitude for the many ways in which he has helped and advised us. Although he has been here but the last two years of our school life, we have learned to admire him as a man and a friend. VVe wish also to speak a word of appreciation' to Mr. Burns, our principal, with whom we have had constant and intimate rela- tions since we entered the high school. He has taken a deep in- terest, not only in our mental training, but in all our athletic activities. and has helped us out of many difficulties with timely advice and personal endeavor. To the faculty, as a whole, we feel a great deal of gratitude and appreciation is due. They have always had our interests at heart and have at all times shown a sincere desire to aid us in every way. To them, as to no others, belongs the credit for what- ever knowledge we have. They have been friends whom we shall never forget and whose example shall linger with us in thc days to come. A. V. D.

The football team couldu't have survived without us, for no less than nine of the, team were boys from our class. Besides that, our boys carried off the laurels in the Interclass games. So cannot we be proud of our boys and the class as a whole? It was also the seniors who brought fame to C. P. H. S. when four of '20-Esther Becker, Martin Stein, Albert Yan Dusen, and Orin Carpenter-made the debating team which went down to Union Hill and by the vote of the judges returned home victors. lVe could continue indefinitely telling about our wonderful achievements, but here we will cease, as we think that this is suiiicient proof that we are the best class ever and that we are justified in calling ourselves a class which it would be hard to surpass or even match. lVe are all proud to belong to the illustrious ranks of 1920, and are glad that we have brought some glory and fame to our alma mafvr. May we always keep in mind, as we continue through life, the words of our school song: XVhen in after years we battle ' Out in the world of strife, And lessons we are learning From the great llook of Life, To the golden page of menfry lVe'll turn fond glances back, And recall these days To sing the praise Of the Crimson and the Black. Gertrude 4lIUI'fl'HS, Class Histor-ian, '20, ..1Ol.. Qllaan Snug The curtain slow is falling On our life at Cliffside High, And we feel, as moments Hitter, That it means a last good-bye. All the happy hours we've spent here, Must to us fond mem'ries beg lf or we're girded now to battle 'Gainst the things we can't foresee. As we pause upon the threshold, And survey the days gone by. Comes a tinge of wholesome sadness Our young lives to test and try. llut we know our course leads onward, Whatsoe'er our joys may be, So we part from dear old Cliffside Quite resigned to fate's decree. The goals we have before us We have always kept in view, Holding high in our endeavors Only things worthwhile and true. As in the world we journey, VVith a will to do and dare,' VVe shall not forget old Cliffside And the happy hours while there. ,V-'lllwrt E. Van Duscn.

I'm the author of the play And was just musing who the star could be. VVhen I a youth at Cliffside High School was. A girl about like you was in the class, Her name was Esther lieeker. I recall, I know she was a mighty clever lass. Esther: VVhy, l'm the girl: no error you have made. And you're Sam Kors, the well-known base- ball fan? Now tell me where these long ten years you've spent And also when your bright career began. Sam : Oh! yes, at first I started selling books Geometries and other works on math. But trig and things like that were out of style- I soon found nought but failure on my path. I gave it up and started writing plays, Page Twenty-seven And after years of strife my dreams came true: I'm recognized on Broadway now at lastg For my success much honor is you due. This seems to be a real old Cliffside night. For who d' you think was following my car? T'was Shorey as a motorcycle cop, XVhose reputation is known near and far. lless Merlehan, too, met my gaze to-night, And with her a stout millionaire I've seen. She wore a costly gown and jewels galore. And in society she is a queen. Esther: Of Martin Stein's business no doubt you've heard, Wlho at doing trig no one could beat. He owns a chain of restaurants well known, lint, sad to say. all prolits he does eat. And what I say 'bout Gert is no surprise, For she now truly is our Marty's wife, A maid of leisure she is now beeomeg At balls and parties gay she spends her life. But now that Marty's fate's been ascertained, I wonder where Van Dusen spends his days. He was so bright when we were up at high Surely by this time he's won much praise. I never yet have seen his name in print, For having written Life's Philosophy. VVho knows?

THE MNEM O5 YNE Glaze illimrrirka Rita Barber is this maiden's name By her silence she puts us to shame, For when we're in a riot, She always is quiet. We wish we could all be the same, There is a young girl, Esther B. And a very bright girl is she, When to a party she goes, There is no one who knows What kind of a dance they will see. Anna Bergstrom's a right jolly one, She is there when it comes to real fun, A good guard is she When not on her knee, 'I'hat's why we all like Miss Bergstrom. There was a young fellow named Bohmg Afar in his Hudso11 he'd roamg When the gas price went high And almost reached the sky, Joe thought he must then stay at home. Our Dora, although a small maid, Can put giants quite in the shade. For her mind is so large, She can meet any charge, And the strength of the mighty degrade, We'd be in a plight without Eets - Especially when the class meets, For, with her left hand She writes at command, And all with a cheery smile greets, A young fellow, Orin, we know, VVe wish more his spirit would show, For in sports he's no blighter, And in lessons no slighter: More, some think he's quite a good beau. There was a good student named Tom, In studies he took every palm. His Trig was a treat, For it could'nt be beat. And with it all he remained calm. In our class is a girl named Clarke Who wanted to get a good mark, VVhen asked to recite, It took her 'till night To say that her mem'ry was dark. There is a young lady named Helen, Her voice, some day, she'll be sellin', And you may all bet, That the price she will get, Will set all the op'ra stars yellin'. Now Joe Coppoletta's his name, To be a great surgeon, his aim, While, at present, 'twould seem, He excels at a theme, And his drawings are bringing him fame Art Emtage sure is a time chapg And women he's sure to entrap, With a queer, winning way On their hearts he does play, Leaving others but gloom to enwrap, Frigiola seems to be dumb , The top of his head was thought numb, He proved they were wrong When he started a song, For everyone seemed to keep mum. There's a fellow who came Senior yearg He has lived in the South it is clear, Kenneth Greenleaf's his name, In all sports he's won fame, And he's merited many a cheer. Now Esther has gained quite a rep, For knowing every new step, She's a good little creature And some dancing teacher For fellows who are full of pep , There is a young fellow named Jack, A little weight he sure does lack, He's grown kind of high, And that is just why His head appears lost in his back. There is a young lady named Kaiserg In talk she resembles a miser, And though she speaks low VVe all of us know In thought she is very much wiser. There is a young lady named Flo, Much 'bout her we really don't know, But this we can say She's happy and gay, And always she is on the go. In Sam Kors we've a lad we know well. His talking no teacher can quellg He writes poems with ease, All young lovers to please, And in arguing most can excel. There was a young fellow named Dave Who said, Now, why should I slave? Much time I will kill And sit very still, For leisure and quiet I crave? ' Page Thirty-two Le Cato was a happy young lad, For he had little cause to be sad, When he pounded his drum With a funny Tum-Tum, He made all 'the young lassies glad, I know a young man named Leclercq, Who, when a freshman would stare, But now that he's older, He acts somewhat bolder, And he shows understanding that's rare. A merry young chap is Leclercq, Who once wished to rest on a chair, So they placed a big spike, Which he sure didn't like, For, by Jove, he went up in the air. There is a young miss in our class, Who is quite a charming young lass, Her nickname is Lichy And she doesn't like Vichy, But she's wed to a good looking-glass. There is a young fellow named Madden He's great at subtractin' and addin' Although he seems quiet, Q He's good at a riotg His antics do all our hearts gladden. Arline sure makes wonderful fudge, Her candy is easy to judge, If you're feelin' blue A piece taken by you Will drive away all grouch and grudge. There is a young lady named Gert, Who, we all know, is not a flirt, She keeps right in style And she has a rare smile, More, she never becomes sore or hurt There was a young fellow called Maziei, Everybody thought Archie was crazy. But one day they awoke, And the news was then broke That Archie was naturally lazy, There is a young lady named Bess, Say movies and quickly she'll dress, Leave all her work lay And wish us Good Day And goiOhl it's easy to guess. THE MNEMOSYNE We have ai young classmate named Charley, Who once fell asleep in a trolley: And when he awoke, He found 'twas no joke For he had been carried too far--ly. There is a young fellow named' Stan Who's a regular lady's man, But him you can't blame, For he knows Cupid's game, And just does the best that he can. Oh Ruth is a miss of great fame: No doubt you have heard of her game, For she's a good guard, And plays the ball hard And helped bring old Cliffside its name. You all know this classmate called James, In farming he much interest claims, But his buzz-wagon speed Puts him far in the lead, And his absence from school explains. There is a young fellow named Stein, In every sport he's bound to shine, He's smart for his size, And in the girls' eyes, He sure is a hero divine. If you an eighth wonder would prove, Take Nippy -it would you behoove- For he's grown up so high That when he goes by You think the flag pole's on the move. There's Bamy or otherwise Al., Whose books are his only good pal, His knowledge of things, Of men and of kings, Is far from being local. Our Julia is such a fair girl, She sets many hearts in a whirlg At acting she's great, And it may be her fate On Broadway her name to unfurl. There is a young fellow named Fat Who's a pretty good sport for all that, It's none of my biz , But the funny thing is, He's very good natured at that. There is a young fellow named Gusg In school he never raises a fussy He'll sit with a grin And take all things ing So he's smarter than many of us. Page Thirty-three By All of Us, 120.

The place cards were held in the mouths of green parrots perched on the edge of each glass. The teachers present were Mr. Drum, Mr. Burns, Miss Hausman, Miss Johnstone, and Miss Nelligan. Dancing followed. All thanks to the Domestic Science Depart- ment under Miss johnstone's supervision! March 19. Once again we are proud of our Alma Mater, this time in intellectual ac- complishments, for our debating team, coached by Mr. Preston, outclassed Union Hill and won the first leg of the Rutgers Intercholastic Debating League trophy. And they were all seniors! March 26. Talk about class spirit! Anyone who doesn't know what that is, should have been at the basketball game to-night played between the senior and sophomore boys for the class championship. The gymnasium was iilled with rooters for both teams, and the excitement was great. After an exciting and well played game on the part of both teams, the seniors defeated the sophomores. A lively game was played also between the junior girls and a picked team from the school. The juniors were victorious. April 21. In order to be in style with the times, the senior boys appeared in overalls and khaki shirts and the girls in bungalow aprons. Who said the seniors weren't patriotic ? April 24. .

The chemistry class found this out when they piled in an automobile and auto truck with their rolls and hot dogs and journeyed to Interstate Park. Here we built a fire, made coffee, roasted wienies, and toasted marshmallows. Everything might have gone all right if the truck hadn't broken down coming up the Dyckman Hill. May 7. The seniors were the honored guests of the juniors at their Junior Prom to- night. The juniors with their class adviser, Miss Rauscher, omitted no details in making it a pleasant affair. The gymnasium was artistically decorated in their class colors, purple and gold. A special feature was the grand march, which was effect- ively carried out. Music was furnished by the Synco Four, and we all had a good time. ' Page Thirty-eight -1-up - fa. THE MNEMOSYNE May 14. These are surely busy times for the seniors. The sophomore class, under the supervision of Miss jones, gave the senior class a spread. VVe were invited into the dining room at eight o'clock, where we found our places by the light of candles in candle sticks shaded by blue and gold shades. Then we were served beaucoup ambrosial viands. We shall not have to visit the fortune teller this year, as our fortunes were told on cards drawn from fancy baskets decorated in the sophomore and senior colors. Our favors, which were pencils cleverly disguised with crepe paper as daffodils, were used in playing a game of cakes. NVe then adjourned to the gymnasium and enjoyed dancing to the music of the sophomore orchestra. May 21. Another movie show to-night! This time it was given by the Athletic As- sociation, to raise money to meet the heavy expenses of maintaining a winning baseball team. Hope it is a success. I May 29.

The motto left with us was, What you are to be, you ar now becoming. june 22. W'eary of the gaze of the curious public, the seniors arranged for a private class day, which was a most select affair. We selrrtcd automobiles to convey us to a sclert spot in a select woods where those .vclfriml read the History, the Prophecy, and the VVill for the class of 1920. This seclusion was deemed expedient, as the class felt itself too self-conscious to withstand the gaze of the mass, while we listened to our achievements as re- corded in our history, to our future prospects as recorded in our prophecy, and to our magnanimity as illustrated by the devises and bequests in our will. june,23. In conformity with a time-honored custom, C. P. H. S. awarded Q ?j a diploma to each of the members of the class who had successfully completed, a four year course or its equivalent. The exercises were held in the auditorium and an en- thusiastic audience, composed in the main of fond mothers and dutiful relations, attended. So we say nothing more than that we agree with you and are glad it is over. june 24. Picnic-a day of general jubilation and good cheer. What a charmlthe little word has for young and old! And this year the Cliffside Park School P1cn1c'was no exception. The word had the same significance as of yore, yet to us, the seniors, it meant the last of a long line of successful days under the patronage of a most kind Alma Mater. , And now, gentle reader, if you have had the patience and perseverance to wade through this chronicle of events for the scholastic year of 1919-1920, you have the most profound respect of Arlinc Mansfield, '20, Page Thirty-nine 'iQ JY?

The members of the Association have planned an elaborate reception in your'honor, on which occasion you will be made active members of the Clilfside Park Alumni Association. The reception will be given at the Masonic Hall, which is more adaptable for such purposes than the high school. The program for the evening will include dancing, speeches, and a iinc supper.

The feature picture was Huckleberry Finn . Three shows were given. and each time the hall was fairly packed. A large sum was realized. and the money from one or more of these shows would far surpass the amount required. Thanks to the Alumni! Among the many entertainments given at the high school this year. the Alumni dances have held a high place. The lirst one. given October 24-,'1919, was a sort of Halloween Dance. The gynmasium was artistically decorated in colors which immediately reminded one of the good old llallowe'en nights. The music for the occasion was furnished by the well known Synco Four of XX'oodclif:f. Among the many doings of the night were prize and novelty dances, which were greatly enjoyed by the large crowd which always patronizes the Alumni entertaimnents. The affair was a great success to the association, as is usually the case, and much credit is due the entertainment committee, of which Charles Martens, '17, was chairman. The second of the many dances given by the Alumni in 1919 took place De- cember 27th. This was a reunion dance mainly for the association members, but nevertheless quite a few friends of the members were present and enjoyed this splendid affair immensely. The climax of the entertainment came at the passing out of horns, caps. confetti. and hundreds, if not thousands, of yards of colored paper tape. About midnight all retired to the dining room. where delicious refresh- ments were served. The refreshments were immediately followed by speeches by the president, Erwin Goeman, '16, and several other members. This dance, one of the associations best affairs, was a great success and one to remain long in the minds of those present. . ' 4 Page Forly l 1 THE MNEMOSYNE The Alumni Association of the Cliffside Park High Schools held several joint meetings with the Board of Education. The object of these meetings was the dis- cussion of very important matters, among which might 'be included the obtaining of the school for Alumni affairs, athletic projects, a reserve section of the audi- torium for graduation exercises, and the starting of an athletic held. K V A 1 Alumni-'Harnitg Jlnnthall - . On Thanksgiving Day the Cliffside Varsity Football Team was scheduled to play the Alumni eleven. and all sorts of arrangements had been made for the event. A very exciting game was planned, to be enjoyed by all. But at the eleventh hour, the day before the game was to take place, not only were the Alumni disappointed, but also part of the varsity, for some of the players either couldn't play or would not play. Yet it may have been a put-up affair. Who knows? Alumni Nauskrthall Game ' One of the outstanding features of the year was the basketball game of the Alumni vs. Varsity. The gymnasium was thronged with rooters cheering or both sides. The most conspicuous feature of the game was the good sportsmanship shown by both sides. The game was made exceedingly exciting throughout by Erwin Goeman's interception and lVallace McDonald's sneaking away with the ball. The score turned out in favor of the Varsity. On account of the shortage and high cost of labor, the Alumni suggested that the high school gymnasium classes start work on clearing up the school grounds. The suggestion was carefully considered by the Board of Education, and the boys were soon put to work. A portion has already been cleared out, and although the work is slow, no one is kicking, and it's better done slowly than never. Spring Bam: i The Alumni Association is making quite a rep with its dances and other public affairs. On April 17th, 1920, the biggest hit of the season was made when they gave their Annual Spring Dance. It was a time affair and very well attended. The hall was handsomely decorated and the jazzy Synco Four furnished the many trotters with lively steps. Refreshments were plentiful and were served in the school's large dining hall. The merry crowd then journeyed back to the gym- nasium and danced to their heart's content. A line baseball team is being made up, comprising the Alumni's best players. They expect to play a game with the Varsity and are very confident of winning it. The school's greatest players are now members of this association and a powerful team will easily be picked.

Page F orty-three ' L THE MNEMOSYNE 0112155 lqiatnriva llltatury nf the Qllama uf 1921 lt is characteristic of practically every organized group of human beings to strive to possess certain qualities peculiar to itself and which distinguish it from all other more or less similar organizations. Considering high school classes in this respect, we are familiar with the many methods adopted since time began by the classes which have passed through the formative period of life to attain that degree of distinction so desired by any proper spirited body of individuals. We know that a class is popular and well thought of according to the individuals who compose it. If they are apt scholars, keen athletes and good entertainers, their success in this line is assured. So, gentle reader, with your kind permission 1 shall endeavor to present to you, through this channel, the class of 1921. In the fall of 1917, when C. P. H. S. opened it doors for another scholastic year, there appeared, conspicuous by its shyness and general bewilderment, a class of individuals known as freshmen , But time and Cliffside school spirit soon effaced these telltale marks of confusion, and we gradually found ourselves. We began by lending our lusty, yet sometimes discordant voices, to swell the chorus of a school song or cheer, and by such acts we did our little bit to help in every way known to freshmen. After duly organizing, the class elected Louis Greene, presi- dent. lVe chose purple and gold as our class colors, the pansy for the class flower, and hope to fulfill our motto: Fortitudine et Labore-By Courage and Labor you lVin. Imbued with the spirit of Christmas, we invaded the social world to the extent of giving a spread in honor of the faculty, by which event we not only proved ourselves capable hosts. but paved the way to a better understanding be- tween faculty and pupils to insure to our benefit for the remainder of our course. During this year we built that Firm foundation which is so essential to success in any undertaking. W'ith this start our next year was all that could be hoped for. The realization of being lowly freslnnen was only a memory, for we were now spirited sophomores, determined to blaze our way to fame and glory. VVe con- tinued our manifestations of interest in school activities not only by a greater in- tensity of cheering, but by furnishing material for the various high school teams. So successful had been our first effort in giving a brilliant spread. that we repeated by establishing a precedent in giving a spread in honor of the seniors. Allan Smith was class president. - To Miss Anna Rauscher, our faculty adviser, we cannot be grateful enough for she gave the class her heartiest support in every undertaking. Wfhen we reunited again as Juniors, after a pleasant vacation, there was a marked change in all of us. lN'e had grown older in years and more mature in judgment, and consequently had higher ideals. But there still remained that same enthusiasm and buoyancy that makes a class worthwhile. In athletics, the power of the juniors is beginning to assert itself. We furnished five regular members of the girls' School Team g our girls captured the interclass basketball championship and our boys helped to win fame for Cliffside by playing on all the high school teams. During this year, the greatest social event of a high school pupil's career takes place in the character of the 'fjunior Prom ', and it fell upon the class of 1921 to show its ingenuity in outshining all its predecessors and in furnishing a mark for future classes to emulate. Our fondest hope was in truth realized. Only those who attended can appreciate the success of the ffjunior Prom of the class of 1921. The class presidents for this year were: first semester, Albert llanishg second semester, Emil Martini. . And now, kind friends, you have been merely introduced to what will be surely . ' - Page F arty-four THE MNEMOSYNE one of Cliffside's most illustrious classes. Time alone did not permit me to men- tion more than a brief skeleton of the numerous activities of this class since its inception in 1917, but with the glowing examples of those who preceded to guide us and the inherent ambitions of an active class spirit to spur us on, a perusal of Clifi'side's Hall of Fame will undoubtedly, as years roll on, reveal the praise- worthy accomplishments of the class of 1921.

Unimportant as some of the events may seem to the casual observer, each under- taking of our class has been epoch-making in the history of the school. As fresh- men we established a record in athletics by winning third place in the interclass tournamentg in music, by contributing many members to theeglee clubs and or- chestrag in scholastic ability, by maintaining a high standard of scholarshipg and last, but not least, in humanitarian work, by adopting a French war orphan. During our sophomore year we have tried to live up to the ideals and standards which we made evident in our first year. Our first step toward this was the reor- ganization of the class, last September. At that time we elected to the office of president a classmate worth of this honor, namely, Herman Martens. As assistant officers we elected Kathryn McCarthy, vice-presidentg Charles Shenier, treasurerg Albertine Leclercq, secretary. In order that the class might work together for the best interests of the school, we have held class meetings the first Thursday of every month. The regularity in the attendance -of the pupils at these monthly meetings proved beyond a doubt that each member considered the progress of our class worthy of his closest personal attention. During the year the class framed and adopted a constitution and chose green and white for its colors. As an instance of its progressiveness, it was the first class to have a banner of its own class colors. Throughout the year the class of 1922 has been foremost in the various forms of social activities which make the school a prominent factor in community life. Qn November twenty-first we gave our first entertainment. .On this occasion motion pictures furnished the main part of the program, but musical selections and recita- tions, to say nothing of a class orchestra, gave evidence of the talent. in our illus- trious class. Perhaps- the worthy object of the entertainment. the raising of money to support the war orphan adopted in our freshman year, partially accounted for the great financial success. I During the football season the girls of our class showed remarkable considera- tion and praiseworthy generosity never to be forgotten bp the members of the 1919 Page F orty- five THE MNEMOSYNE football team, in tendering them at the time most ne battle between Rutherford's sturdy warriors and our Zcwiil lbcSi1fratliilni:1llleiolnfglgl?gg school lunch room. The Rutherford fellows were invited also but 'were unable to attend. It must be said that CliHside's team most heartily ,enjoyed the tl-gat and placed the sophomore girls on record as having remarkable school spirit. On December nfteenth we honored our adopted war orphan, Marcel Demon- ceaugc, with a birthday shower and later with a Christmas box containing sweet- meats and toys. Needless to say, much effort and planning went into the pre- paration of this Christmas package. On Tuesday afternoon, january twentieth, the sophomore-junior skating party was held. The purposeof this was to promote fellowship between the two classes through a common festlvity and to have a good time. Immediately after school the two classes went to the Hudson County Lake, where a merry afternoon was had by all on the ice. At live-thirty all returned to the school lunch room, where a frankfurter supper was served. Dancing and games follgwed, The crowning event of the year was the spread given to the senior class by the sophomores on the evening of May fourteenth, when the two classes gathered at the high school. The sophomore orchestra furnished music for dancing. At about eight o'clock, all assembled in the school lunch room, where the sight which met their eyes was electrifying. Never has the lunch room looked so pretty. ' The tables were tastefully decorated. At intervals, candles with colored shades of blue and gold, the senior colors, gave a soft and pleasant light. Beside each plate was a favor with a place card attached. But while the decorations were impressive, the food was more so. The last course, consisting of Jack Horner pies from which fortunes were drawn, proved about as enjoyable as the more substantial part of the meal. After the repast there was a guessing contest in which all participated. It was very appropriate that a senior should win this prize. More dancing and games followed the supper, and at eleven o'clock all retired. Although the account of our social activities may make our class seem more active along those lines than any other, this is not so, for we have been prominent in athletics. VVe have furnished several very good players to the football and base- ball teams. Our class basketball team gave a good account of itself in the inter- class games. After the varsity had successfully closed its basketball season, the long anticipated interclass games began. In these the first place was captured by the seniors, to whom it rightfully belonged according to precedent. The second place, which would naturally fall to the juniors, was won by the sophomores. There was more enthusiasm shown during the class games this year than has ever been known in the history of our beloved school. Each class had-its own corner of the gym, and at every game the students showed wonderful spirit. But for all the spirit shown by the others, our class was the only one to have a mascot, in fact our mascot was the first one introduced at C. P. H. S. . A great deal of credit is due Miss jones, our class adviser, for the success of our class. It is through her earnest efforts and forethought that we rank as one of the most progressive classes in the school. G Taken all in all, the sophomore class has made a record in the past two years not to be despised. lt has been a class noted for its good sportsmanship and good fellowship. We all hope it will continue to have as good class spirit and as good school spirit until the end of our high school life in Cliffside Park High School. Russell H ouk, Class Historian '22.

There were enrolled at that time ninety fresh- men, of which twenty-five later left school, among whom were Harold Lyons, vice-president, later replaced by Theodore Sutter, and Mae Conroy, treasurer, re- placed by Helen Mazzei. A committee of two to represent our class in the Athletic Association, was then elected. The next problem was the election of a class his- torian, namely, joseph Boratt, who, however, left school and was replaced by Rosalie Vosters, who also recently left. In the Interclass Basketball Tournament, a keen class spirit was shown by all, and although we were victorious in only one game, we met defeat with a high de- gree of good sportsmanship. As orange and black had been previously decided upon as our class colors, a banner to be used at class functions was made by the parents of Marie Krebs, and our corner in the gym was appropriately decorated for the tournament games with orange and black paper. On March sixteenth, a St. Patrick's Day party was tendered by the freshmen cooking class to the seniors. The favors and decorations were appropriate to the date. Everyone had a thoroughly good time. Our baseball team has recently been organized, and although we have so far played no games, a sharp class spirit has been displayed in the practices. lVe are at present considering plans for a freshman picnic when most of the time will be spent in the Palisade Park swimming pool. However, you may be sure we shall emerge long enough to eat. Last, but by far not least, comes the subject of scholarship. Strange teachers, strange rooms, strange objects met the bewildered freshman last September. Dn- daunted, he has worked his way up the ladder of success, until, at the present time, he feels able to tackle any problem in the school work. The freshmen eagerly accepted the opportunity oifered to them by the De- bating Society and History Club, and may be expected to do even better in the near future. , It is due to the tireless efforts and unfailing help of our worthy class adviser, Miss Nelligan, that we have attained this degree of success.

The club was suggested by Mr. XfVheeler, our history in- structor, and consists solely of seniors. . The idea of the club was to discuss the current events of national and inter- national importanceg to study the vital problems of the dayg and to make civics a real live subject. ' - Meetings have been held every two weeks, and the discussions have always been interesting. Among the topics discussed the past year are: Immigration . The League of Nations , The Eighteenth Amendment , Co-Education , and others. Under the guidance and advice of Mr. Vliheeler, the club has progressed rapidly, and it is hoped that it will be a vital factor in school activities next year. The officers of the club for this past year were: President, Albert Van Duseng vice-president, Esther Beckerg secretary-treasurer, Arline Mansfield. Eehaiing Snririg Another new organization formed this year is the Debating Society. Since our school is in the Rutgers Interscholastic Debating League, it was thought wise to have such a society, in order to train debaters to represent this school. Mr. Preston has acted as adviser of the society, and many instructive and in- teresting meetings have been held. Members of all classes have taken part in the debates and much has been learned from them. Among the topics debated were: Resolved: That a college course is essential to a business career , and Resolved: That overalls help to reduce the cost of livin . gfhe oiiicers of the club for the past year were: President, Orin Carpenter, '2Og vice-president, Dorothy Drew, '21 g secretary, Ruth Shenier, '23, Srhunl Qbrrlirntra There can be no doubt that with the musical talent in our school we are grad- ually developing a lirst-class orchestra. Under the guidance of Mrs. MacCullock, our music teacher. practices have been held every lVednesday afternoon in the auditorium. The orchestra plays at each assembly and at many- of the social func- tions of the school. Those who compose the orchestra are: Dorothy Ficken, pianog Edwin Le Cato, drumg Martin Stein, flute, Henry Tatika, Francis Kirmayer, Henry Och, and Raymond Clark, violin. llluninr llvh Cllrnna At the request of our government, our school again joined the ranks of the junior Red Cross. VVe can say proudly that every student in the school is a member. Last year we won the distinction of being the first school in New Jersey to have a hundred per cent enrollment. VVe hope to continue our record in anything the government asks us to do. Page F arty-eight 5.

After much thought and deliberation. the name chosen for the paper was The i lamheau . This was considered appropriate because of the Hanibeau in the school seal. liecause of this, it was decided to use the school seal on every cover. Soon after the staff was chosen, a contribution box was placed in the corridor through the medium of which the students might give their ideas and material for the Japer. lt was decidid to issue the magazine quarterly, but on account of the late be- ginning, only three issues were published this year-Christmas, Easter, and Memorial Day numbers. Each one of the issues was a splendid success from both the linancial and the literary point of view. A great deal of credit and appreciation is due Miss jones for her invaluable assistance and guidance, and the student body for its co-operation.

Cliffside Park High School surely reserves a great deal of praise for the splendid showing the debating team has made this year. The team successfully inet and defeated Union Hill on Klarch lllth, and, had it not been for a misunder- standing and error in arrangements on the part of Rutgers College, would have had a fair chance to win the championship and a silver cup in the final debate. It is interesting to note that this is the second year a debating team has been chosen to represent our school. and that the iirst team, which was the one chosen two years ago, was a championship team, having won a banner for defeating all its opponents. The group in which lflitfside Park was placed at that time was Hoboken, lYest Hoboken, Ridgefield Park. and Cliffside Park. lt is also interesting to note that two of the members of this years team-.-Xlbert Yan Dusen and Martin Stein-were debaters on the championship team two years ago. The interscholastic debates are held under the supervision of Rutgers College. and a cup or banner is awarded the winner of each group. At the debating con- ference held at New Brunswick this year. the high schools were divided into groups of four. The group in which our school was placed was Hasbrouck Heights, Ridgefield Park, Union Hill, and Cliffside Park. ' After a trial debate, in which all students were given the opportunity to take part, the team chosen to represent the school was as follows: Albert Van Dusen, Martin Stein, and Esther llecker, with Orin Carpenter as alternate. Albert Xf an Dnsen was chosen captain of the team. gfmrzinui-d on page 52.5 Page Fifty THE ill.VliMOSl'Nf v , i , .. X Athlrtir Ammrialinn 7 .

Sperling About the first of October. after the election of the new othcers of the Athletic Association, Mr. llurns called a special assembly which was given the name of athletic assembly . School songs started the program. Then the last year's president, Orin Carpenter, told of the accomplishments of the Athletic Association of that year and was followed by the newly elected president, jack Hunter. He outlined the work which he hoped would he possible for them to cover. After this, the baseball team of 1010 was awarded letters and the junior girls and boys of last year were awarded their numerals, being the champions in class basketball. Then we sang more songs and had several cheers, which ended our first athletic assembly. Under the presidency of .lack Hunter, the association has had a very success- ful administration. During the football season the association had tags printed which were sold at the game for fifteen cents each. Students belonging to the Athletic Association were admitted free. The money from the tags was used to help pay the expenses of the officials and the expenses of the teams. lt was the first attempt at anything of this kind, and it proved successful. For equipment of the team six new jerseys and as many pairs of socks were purchased. Mr. Goeman, one who is much interested in school activities, gave the team a football. which was greatly appreciated, and the Alumni Association donated three jerseys and three pairs of socks. The girls' basketball team was given two more umforms, Page Fifty-one is. . THE MNEMOSYNE and the boys' team was fitted out in new uniforms, of which the team was very proud. All through the season the games were advertised by placards, and, as a result, a large number of townspeople enjoyed the games, while the school en joved both the games and the material support. Wfith baseball the association deemed it wise to continue with the tags, for the expenses of oilicials and team expenditures are a great drain upon the treasury. New equipment had to be purchased and the means to do that had to be considered. Now that tennis is to be a part of our athletics and must not be slighted. the A. A. appropriated ten dollars to defray the expenses of equipping the team. Since the football team and both girls' and boys' basketball teams were success- ful in fulfilling the requirements of the association, they were awarded their letters. Also numerals were awarded the junior girls and senior boys as champions in class basketball. At the last meeting of the association, Edward Hrebicek was elected football manager for next fall and Richard Nast was elected basketball manager. The Athletic .Association is to be greatly praised for its accomplishments in upholding Cliffside? standard in athletics. Bvhating Ewan CConlimu-d from page 505 After a month's instruction and training under Mr. Preston. the coach, the team journeyed to Union Hill and defeated the team there after an interesting debate. The topic debated was: Resolved: That the U. S. should establish a pro- tectorate over Mexico similar to that established over Cuba. By , defeating Union Hill, we had earned the right to debate Hasbrouck Heights, who had been victorious over Ridgefield Park on the same night, and thus make a iight for the championship of the group and the possession of a hand- some silver cup. It was a great disappointment, both to the team and the student body, to learn that. through some misunderstanding on the part of Rutgers College. we could not debate Hasbrouck Heights. We We1'e ready for any team and were in no way at fault for not having the chance to debate Hasbrouck Heights. Though the team does not receive a cup, it can boast of not having been defeated.

Football practice was called as soon as school opened. and twenty-tive or more boys turned out to make a name for Clittside on the gridiron. The team was handicapped from the beginning in not having a coach, as Mr. llurns, who has in previous years had charge of coaching the football squad, was very busv with his school work and therefore unable to coach this year. 'Erwin Goeman, 'l6, Valen- tine Franke. 'l7, and Richard Fox, Ir.. came to the rescue and molded a team of which the Crimson and Illack mav well he proud, and which will not soon he for- gotten. The success of the team is due to their eH'orts. and the team and also the school is indeed grateful for the interest they showed.

Mr. liurns con- sented to coach the team and immediately started to whip into shape a squad that could play the game and play it well. The prospects of a banner year were en- couraging from the start. There was good material from the preceding year, but it was evident that much time and patience would be required. Martin Stein, the manager, presented a line schedule. 'l'hroughout the season the team played a splendid game, always showing the Cliffside spirit of never give in . A few times they acted as if they knew nothing, or very little. of basketball, but we must not hold that against them when we recall the praiseworthy manner in which they played so many times. To Mr. llurns is due the success of the team. and he may feel well repaid for his untiring efforts which we all appreciate. As a reward for the game they played and for winning the required number of games, the mem- bers of the team have received their letters. The team did its best.

Guard boost for class spirit this year. Never before in the history of basketball has so much interest been taken. The corners of the gymnasium allotted to the respective classes were extensively decorated in class colors and pennants for the period of the tournament, and great rivalry was shown in volume and variety of cheers and stunts , P Each class was allowed a secret practice before its first scheduled game. At every game the sides of the gymnasium were lined with students, while the balcony was filled with parents and friends of those taking part in the sport. Each class gave cheers for its own team and that of the sister class. Horns and bells and cheers made the gymnasium ring and increased to fever heat the excitement of the games. The classes are to be complimented on the splendid showing they made and the Fine game they played. In addition to the numerals awarded by the school, the faculty donated a box of chocolate bars to the winning teams, The junior girls and senior boys are the champions of the school. Both teams 'played .splendid basketball and may feel well repaid for the hard work. they had in gaming their places. In leaving, the seniors hope that the class spirit may not slacken, but be even more enthusiastically carried out in years to come.

Since that time the players and their eoaeh. Mr. Sperling, have worked very hard to put forth a team which will he a credit to Cliffside. The weather conditions during April and early May were very unfavorable and a number of games have had to be post- poned. All through the season it has seemed that the team was working against odds. lt has gone forivard to each game with the same old Cliffside determina- tion to win, but has returned home beaten. Hut do not think the boys lost their spirit at all, for they were determined all the more to light harder in the next game. It certainly is very discouraging never to win, but there is something in being able to take defeat in the right manner, and surely our boys have tried their best to do that. A great deal of credit is due them for the brave attempt they have made to uphold Cliffsiclek honor on the diamond. XYe must not forget the Leonia game, Page Iiifty-nine THE MNEMOSYNE for in that game the boys had their reward for their work and patience. They like the members of all other teams, have done their best, and that is all we expect of them. XVe are proud of them even though they haven't brought home the bacon g we admire their other qualities. As for the team of '21, we hope they may be more successful and make the stumbling blocks of the team of '20 their stepping stones. Gaines.

Each team is composed of fifteen members and the first one scoring fifteen points is the victor. This sport will give those students who have felt they could not give the time -to the other sports a chance to help make a name for their respective classes. A schedule for the tournaments was made out by the gymnasium in- structor, Miss llall, but only the senior and junior game was played. The seniors were victorious, the score being fifteen to seven. lloth teams played well, and it looks, from its beginning, as if Volley llall will bring about the desired results. il 1l.iTT Efrnnia Tennis has been started this year in Cliffside, for the Crimson and Black is not to be put down by other schools when it is at all possible for her to take her place in athletics. Tennis is a new thing among the high schools, and it is hoped that it will tend to bring the schools into closer relations. Mr. Quill, the coach, has worked hard to develop an A-l team of which Cliffside is proud. There are about ten boys and six girls for the team. The first game was played with Union Hill. Cliffside was successful in both the singles and the double which were played. Arthur Emptage and XYallace McDonald upheld Cliffside's honor, and they de- serve a great deal of praise for their splendid showing, especially in our. first tennis game. We hope that the work will go on and the succeeding team will till its place in keeping the Crimson and Black on the top. W ' In closing, 1 wish to extend to dear old Cliffside and her teams the heartiest wish for unsurpassed success in the future. Orin Ca-rpenter, 120.

And the class was brimful of pep , For the feast -was to be very joyous To do justice full to our rep . There were cookies, and fruits, and candies Enough for a banquet, 'twould seem, But the crowning delight of the evening Was to be some of Orem's ice cream. Such is the general favor Of this dish of sweet frozen ice, That many had eaten no supper So they'd have a good helping twice. Thus, while we were gayly dancing The cream in the kitchen reposed, Until at an hour somewhat later To eat we should all feel disposed, But lo! When the lunchroom we entered And made for the freezer a bound, We noticed the window was broken And no bricks of cream to be found. The gym and the halls were searched over, The boys were especially brave, For although their knees were atremble, They vowed the ice cream they would save. But the robbers had safely escaped us Though Looch exclaimed, What a Nerve! Then the girls, now calm UQ began shout- ing, We've the cake and the pie yet to serve. Ne'er did we seem so hungry, Ne'er were Bess' cookies so sweet, And though H20 was our beverage We considered that quite a treat. When at last the feast was ended.. And Le Cato caught Marty's sight.

Published and declared by the Class of 1920 of the Cliffside Park High School, as their last will and testament in presence of these witnesses. Samuel Johnson. Isaar Nvwtmz. 4' In our opinion. Zlinnthall 5 fC0llfiI1lll'l! from page 53.1 in comparison with the size of the teams which they played. In every game they fought with the Cliffside tight and pep and held their own until the Final whistle was blown. The team received their letters as a reward for their splendid play- ing and also for winning half of the games played. But we must not stop with the success of the 'team of 'l9g we must progress. Those who must leave the ranks, leave regretfully. They extend to those whose duty it is to uphold the honor of Cliffside, best wishes for far greater success than that achieved by the team of '19, Games.

If you're in room number one, Remember you're not there for fun. Study well each page you turn: From Mr. Preston much you'll learn. Don't try any foolishness. While you're taking history Act as if you know it, and Not as if 'twere a mystery. When you're in Miss Hausman's room, All prankish thoughts should vanish, 'Cause it is from Miss Hausman That you learn French or Spanish. Never shout, you'll meet your doom, If you're in Miss Rauscher's room. She's a lot to many of thee VVho learn trig and geometry, VVhen you're in the English class Never give the teacher sass g And always speak in undertonesg VVe learn English from Miss jones. l1Vhen yon're standing and recitin', Don't turn pale and don't you whiten. just be courteous and stillg You'll learn Latin from Mr. Quill. And for those who take typewriting, There's much noise and less reciting. Miss Nelligan must bear this noise, So try to add much to her joys. And while you take commercial work Study hard, never shirk. And you'll End that in the end In Mr. Sperling you've found a friend. And when you're down in the gym ,lust exercise, don't stall. 'Cause you get your pep and vim From the teachings of Miss Ball, And don't do sneaky things When Miss Johnstone is not looking: 'Cause it's just from her That you learn to do your cooking. And also, when you're in the shop. Keep working on, don't often stop, And always treat Mr, Hardie fair And he too, will treat you square. And when you're taking music You really should rejoice Miss MacCulloch gives you all A chance to show your voice. I don't say I've followed well All that l just wrote, For sometimes when teachers yell I try to get their goat. But sad to say, 'twould never work The teachers are too clever Can one get the best of them? MY answer is NEVER! . So here's a good bit of advice Your teachers just obey And learn well all that they teach You'll he- mighty glad some day.
