c mmunity sing. Remember the first championship in the Northern New jersey Inter- s ,olastic League. Does the Tri-Y assembly come back to your mind? Mrs. Hall spoke so impressively about etiquette. Then junior Play tryouts, the Hi-Y formal and the T. B. patch test. Finally the state championship after the Cliifdwellers trounced Bound Brlook. Miss jimmy , the pride and joy of the junior class, came to Cliffside. A new A .erican flag was presented to the school. The European refugees in school told of th ir experiences. The end of the year was climaxed by the junior farewell tea dance, and then you got that funny feeling. An awesome senior at last! But it's your last year of school, and it certainly felt 'kinda funny' all through the year. George Washington Slept Here in C.P.H.S., on y you Seniors proved that a myth. The suspense throughout the basketball season ke 1: you sitting on needles, but we still placed second in the Northern New jersey In rscholastic League. Then more new teachers, for Miss Miller left to get married, and Mr. McGann left for defense work. Mr. Gordon became student adviser, and Mr. Reeves was made Hi-Y adviser. Mr. De Siervo was graduated from the ranks, and came from junior High to teach Biology. We know you haven't forgotten the Hi-Y formal, and need we remind you of that big moment in your life-graduation? Some were planning for college, others for work, but graduation did not mean the breaking up of lifelong friendships, even though tears might be shed. You weren't saying Farewell, but only Hello to a new period in your life. l.

Do you remember pinching yourself? But yes! All past memories were forgotten as class elections were held. North Bergenites and Cliffdwellers got together, the Co-Y sponsored the tea for out of town Sophomore girls, everyone went to the Worlcl's Fair, and then that unforgettable success, the Hallowe'en Dance. Remember the Kay Kaiser Kwiz, and the Jitterbug Contest? No one has heard the end of it. And the Pep Rally! Oh-h how the girls envied the cheerleaders and made up their minds that as soon as possible they would be up there themselves. You didn't know the cheers, but yelled anyway. Then the Cli-Hi. You heard cries, Oh, my name's in snooper! l'Look at my name in llnquiring Reporter' Then came Footlights l Those wonderful assemblies! Remember the 'Living Art' assembly with the students posing? The faculty decided to give a playg pupils were talent scouts and criticized the teachers. Remember how you turned the tables? Then all those wonderful Seniors winning declamation contests. The Co-Y Amateur Hour assembly program proved lots of fun when your classmates were on the spot. Then basketball came and the faculty defeated the Hi-Y. A trip to see Life With Father helped to pass by one day. When you heard the girls asking the fellows for a date, you knew the Hi-Y Leap Year Dance was coming. The burro basketball game made certain members of the faculty so-0-0 popular. Then old school loyalty and pride rising when Ray O'Toole placed third in the national finals.

The band with the drum major, majorette, and twirlers. The imitator of birds and animals amused every- one in the assembly. An athletic organization was created. Cupid shot two arrows and Miss Korb and Miss Skoglund became Mrs. Karabinas and Mrs. johnson, respect- ively. The French hop was a social success. Remember Cli-Hi movie night and the
