GLADYS T. VERMEULEN Happy 336 BROADWAY PATERSON Girls ' A. A. (7, 8, 9); Chorus (12). Hailing from Paterson, Gladys, with her sparkling white teeth, has smiled her way through College High since seventh grade, of which she is one of the original members. Tall and statuesque, Gladys has a talent for selecting attractive clothes, which she wears with distinc- tion. As to hobbies— Gladys enjoys reading, swimming, and knitting most. She has gready contributed to the success of many school ac- tivities to which she has been ever ready to lend a helping hand.

A. (8, 9, 10, 11), President (12); French Club (11, 12); Cheerleader (11, 12); Chorus (9, 11, 12). Personality, pep, and Jo are practically syn- onymous to the Class of ' 48. Her activities, which have run the gamut from chorus to cheer- leading, have been enlivened by her charm, sin- cerity, and ease of manner. An outstanding artist, Jo has also beguiled us by her candid car- toons of professors and students alike. When Jo has her one woman show in some famous art gallery, we ' ll proudly say, We knew her when 1 19

ADELE M. PATTISON ' Del 22 ELSTON ROAD UPPER MONTCLAIR Cheerleader (11), Captain (12); Girls ' A. A. (8, 9, 10, 11, 12); Chorus (9, 11, 12); French Club (11). Usually airaxed in the black and gold of her C. H. S. cheerleader ' s outfit, Adele, to us, has become the symbol of the American Glamazon. Adroit at snapping her fingers and clapping her hands with the best of them, she can usually be seen at the head of her squad, spurring our bra es on to ■ictorv. But ' Dels outstanding re- port cards sho ' that she doesn ' t let these extra- curricular acti ' ities eclipse the more serious pur- poses of her school career. W ROBERT J. VAN ESS Van 212 McCOSH ROAD UPPER MONTCLAIR Class Treasurer (11); Yearbook Associate Edi- tor (12); C;rier Associate Editor (10, 11, 12); Chorus (12), Click, click, and another scene of C. H. S. life has been preserved for posterity by Bob ' s trusty little camera. With a flash-bulb wit that fre- quently fizzles, Bob occasionally drags his jokes out of the formaldehyde to give the old things a run for their money. However, when not deep in the corn field, Van is quiet and seri- ous-minded—qualities that will gain for him an en iable niche in the world. I ' j ' M. ' il%t - -, 18

HARRY WUEST Harry 137 SUMMIT AVENUE UPPER MONTCLAIR Class Secretary (8); Dramatic Club (8, 9, 10); Radio Club Chairman (10); French Club (11). Harry is always there with the answer whether the subject be geometry, French, or the atomic bomb. With his appeahng accent acquired dur- ing his boyhood in Switzerland, Harry could be a killer with the feminine element, but so far, formulae and test tubes are much more in- triguing (?) to him. He intends to become an engineer, and we know he ' ll reach the top. RICHARD P. YESKEL Dick 44 EAST REID PLACE VERONA Student Council President (12); Class Presi- dent (11); Varsity Football (10, 11), Cap- tain (12); Varsity Basketball (11), Co- captain (12); Varsity Baseball (10, 11, 12); Chorus (11, 12). Entering C. H. S. in the tenth grade, Dick has not only starred in every sport, but has partici- pated in practically every other activity the school has had to offer. Modest, gay, and genial, Dick plows through his studies as easily as he does through the opposing team. At the moment, Dick is seriously considering a business career following his college course. May he ahvays be a letterman in evervthino he undertakes! 20
