It is unproductive to live a life of expectation and regret. It is virorthwhile to live every moment for its own good, and the future inherent in it. J We came to College High School with very high opinions of ouriselves. We were told we were brilliant, mature, talented and well-rounded. We were Young Adults. As entering seventh graders, we saw College High as the epitome of glamour. The football players and Student Council leaders walked around as if they owned the school, which they did, almost. All of the upperclassmen were such good friends! It didn ' t seem possibe that someday lue would do the secret things in the amphitheatre, make jokes out loud in the aud, pursue rornances in the upper hall, and do all the other things that were part of the College High niystique. The years went by, and our class began to acquire a character of its own. Our boys became varsity players, our girls became cheerleaders, and eventually we even had power in Student Council. In classes, we were either enthusiastically enjoyed, or notoriously dreaded. We had upper hall lockers, and w ere known. bAnd yet, there seemed to be something missing. Those Super-Seniors we had ■ irshipped were gone, and we, -still so much like seventh graders inside, were the onl es left. 1 . Something was lost, but some- thing was gained. At College High, S we were given freedoms and finally k learned how to use them; we were treated like young adults until we 1 finally became them: we were taught N, a love for knowledge until we de- veloped ' intellectual curiosity; and we were shown the importance of , having close friends and .mutual re- , spect until we grew to like and trust • I and respect each other. ' We were given the best, so that ! now, when we must leave, we want i I to look for the best, and give the I best. For all these reasons, we dedi- 1 I cate this yearbook, our ultimate ef- I i fort, to College High. r .  -j Mr. Harry Hoitsma, Director of Athletics THE Dr. Harold Bohn, Senior Class Advisor Mrs. Lorraine Papasavas, Librarian ' Mrs. Jane Wehncke, Librarian ADMINISTRATION 1 i 1 1 kljl ElIZI ■TTT B Ml III n 1 ■tTi z Mrs. Joan Gaeng, Guidance Counselor Dr. Anne C.

The first semester Student Council, led by President Rick Richelson, Vice President Hollis Williams, Treasurer Elliot Sobel and Secretary Astrid Rehl, played a major role in dealing with the needs and desires of the student body. Activities cards with expanded coverage of events were sold. Council sponsored away buses for a school-wide trip to Stratford, and to the championship football game at Daycroft. A social directory containing the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of all students was compiled, published, and distributed. In place of a handbook. President Rick initiated a further duty of the president when he spoke to the seventh graders about C.H.S. traditions and student policies. The council also introduced a College High ruling for the TUB, and saved the Lounge from permanent oblivion by instituting a policy of no eating, enforced by a strict monitorial system.

The Student Council play, an idea founded in the beginning of the year, was held in spring. Council ar- ranged for a showcase in the lower hall to exhibit all sports trophies. President Bob Edison and Vice President Mike Caggiano investigated the possibilities of inexpensive rnilk for College High students at the college cafeteria. The Council also did much to boost school spirit. A school dance was given, featuring a well-known local band. Also, attendance at the games was stressed and produced admirable results.

Under President Lee Shapiro, the group focused on two main discussion topics. Dur- ing the first semester, the club showed several World War II propaganda films and featured Point of Order. a two-hour movie on McCarthyism in the 1 950 ' s. The second half of the year was devoted to a study of minor- ity groups in the local area. The club pro- vided speakers and films on the topic, and many lively discussions were held. In addition to the program, the group planned a Model Security Council to be held on the Montclair State Campus, in place of the annual trip to Georgetown. Ten area schools were invited to participate in the event and all members hoped it would be a high point of the year ' s activities. The History Club also sponsored a UNICEF drive in October, and later on, the annual CARE drive. The History Club in action.

Scolt Moffetl Adviser Mr. Michael Grleco Mr. Michael Grieco Advisor to the Crier The Crier was the ftrst major undertaking of the Class of 1969 and proved to be a successful endeavor. Selected from the new journalism class, the staff was well-trained with ample experience in newspaper writing and publishing. The group was fortunate in having Mr. Grieco, the journalism teacher, as an advisor. Under the dual leadership of Jay Angoff and Jim Lecky, the Crier ceased to be a revolutionary literary magazine and was transformed into a well-organized and in- formative newspaper, published on a fairly regular bi-weekly basis. The staff tried to make the paper of maximum interest to the entire student body. Each issue presented a calendar of M.S.C. and C.H.S. events, ex- clusive sports coverage, and a column com- menting on important school situations: furthermore, editorials focused on problems of school-wide interest in an attempt to bring the upper and lower halls closer together. Also, the quality of the artwork in each issue improved the general format of the paper. By incorporating members of the Class of 1970 into the staff as assistants, the Crier editors tried to give needed experience to the class below to insure another high quality newspaper. Jay Angoff and Jim Lecky go about their duties as Crier editors- in-chief. 65 La Campanilla -•Man, . — ■;: ... aSK.. _. First Row: Kathy Hover, Cinder Fcndrich. Jay Angoff, Mindy Fink.

It is believed that all phases of CHS life have been presented fairly, with special attention given not only to the seniors and faculty, but also to the underclassmen, the varied activities, and the very active sports program. After an impeccable selection of the La Campanula staff in September, the editors and assistants undertook the formidable task ahead of them. Weekly meetings were held at a strategically located hilltop hideaway where full attention could be given to the many opposing problems. Over coke and pretzels, the shape of the yearbook unfolded. The distinguishing characteristics which had so long been the personality traits of the class and the school, were uncovered and captured. The Senior Section sought to capture each individual more completely through encom- passing write-ups and two candid photo- graphs. The Underclass and Activities di- visions attempted to find those traits which were felt to most suitably describe the par- ticular group. The Sports Section was ex- panded to better portray each phase of the program. Special care was given to the prep- aration of class histories, the faculty, and our patrons. Finally, the yearbook was made a cohesive body with a clever layout, quality photography, and the uniting work of the literary editor. The total work. La Campanilla. is dedi- cated to College High School, and is a rep- resentation of College High School as it should be remembered. Diligent Yearbook Editor-in-chief Jay Angoff.

Below: Mr. Wil- liam Shadel, Orchestra Conduc- tor. Orchestra The College High Orchestra, conducted by Mr. Shadel, was the major source of the school ' s musical entertainment this year. Many new members from the experimental music classes joined the orchestra, and as a result, the organization was greatly strengthened in number and in variety of instruments. The group gave two fine performances, one at Christmas and the other in the spring. The season was traditionally concluded with the orchestra ' s participation in the graduation ceremonies. All performances were enthusiastically attended by the student body. Wind Ensemble String Ensemble For the second year, experimental music classes were offered to the seventh grade. Mr. Oneglia instructed the string class and Mr. Shadel led the students of brass and woodwind instruments. Both groups displayed their talents at the Christmas Concert, and once again at the Spring Concert where they showed incredible progress. Next year ' s orchestra will once again benefit from many talented seventh graders. 68 I. iTsuBS at J )| The Girls ' Athletic Associa- tion enjoyed an active year de- spite the fact that field hockey was eliminated from ' the program because of uncoordinated sched- ules. In November the basketball season began. Under the direc- tion of the new advisor, Miss Joy Miller, the girls learned zone defense and worked on improv- ing general skills and teamwork. After much hard work, the girls had a chance to test the success of success of their efforts by chal- lenging Wayne, Verona, and Montclair High School. In the spring, Softball practice was held. The girls also were given an op- portunity to play tennis on the recently-installed courts, and oc- casionally, to make use of the college gymnastics facilities. The new Ski Club, formed because of widespread student in- terest, enjoyed a profitable year. The club was under the leader- ship of many experienced skiers, but beginners were also encour- aged to join. Under dynamic President Bob Schmidt, the club ' s founder, the organization proved to be entertaining as well as educational. During the year, several films demonstrating skiing techniques were shown. The club also fea- tured guset lecturers. The cul- mination of the season was a group trip to a local ski resort.

Barnstorming Mollis Williams garners valuable first down yardage against Daycroft foes. The 1968 College High football season looked like it might be a rebuilding year, as five starters were gone from last year ' s championship team. But under the outstanding coaching of Mr. Ron Gundry, of Brandeis, B.U., and Miami of Florida, the Ponies again finished the season undefeated and captured the Tri-State Six-Man Football League Championship. The season opened on a winning note as Lee Wilson ' s determined Saddle River Rebels came into JMountainside Park, only to fall, 26-13, as Phil Grece and Bob Behrens each caught touchdown passes from senior quarterback Shep Huntington. The Ponies then traveled to Cherry Lawn, where three touch- downs apiece by Phil Grece and Mike Kowalski lead the offensive barrage in a 57-6 victory. College High captured its third straight victory at Oakland, 33-6, as the perennially tenacious Pony defense, led by Hollis Williams and Bob Schmidt and Behrens, pre- vented Oakland from moving the pigskin. Aided by holder Shep Huntington, Bob Schmidt demonstrates his powerful kicking ability. H: i .T;-i •: - - ' ■ .. • ••— ' : K. i College High returned home to enjoy a laugher against Cedar Knolls. Despite the fact that the start- ing team played only a few minutes. College High notched its first shutout of the season, 34-0. The Ponies now journeyed to Greenwich, Connecticut, to do battle with Daycroft School in a battle of the undefeateds. Shep Huntington passed for four touch- downs to lead his team to a 41-19 victory, and Bob Schmidt kicked in with three conversions. A confident Pony club returned to Mountainside Park to outclass New Rochelle. 38-7, In the last regular season game of the year, College High slaugh- tered a tough Halsted ballclub to the tune of 48-6. Mike Kowalski, Hollis Williams, and Phil Grece each scored twice in the romp, which gave the Ponies the Western Division crown, and earned them the right to play Daycroft for the coveted Tri-State Championship. The Ponies arrived at Daycroft to see We ' re Number One signs on the walls, and at the end of the first half it looked like Daycroft might be right: College High was on the short end of an 18-16 score. But the Ponies put it all together in the second half and came back to win, 39-31. Bob Behrens, playing the best game of his career, was the workhorse of the team as he carried 31 times for 206 yards and two touchdowns. Hollis Williams also scored twice and Huntington threw for two, while Bob Schmidt kicked four of four extra points. It was Bob ' s four two-pointers which proved to be the margin of vic- tory.

Noted for his slick play-calling and pin-point passing accuracy, Shep consistantly moved the College High offense to pay- dirt. Receiving recognition for his fine play, Shep was chosen as this year ' s first team, All-League quarterback. . All-League halfback Hollis Williams provided the College High offense with a powerful running threat to compliment the Ponies aerial attack. Although be- ing known for his long and twisting downfield runs, Hollis also blossomed into a fine backfield pass re- ceiver, further stymieing opposing defenses. A vicious tackier, Hollis bolstered the Ponies ' very tough de- fensive contingent. Four-year letterman Bob Schmidt was the main- stay of the College High defense. A fierce competitor. Bob consistently manhandled enemy ball carriers in plugging the defensive gaps. A versatile performer, Bob proved to be a sure-handed pass receiver and a brilliant kicking specialist, though hampered by in- juries, Bob ' s efforts earned him recognition on both the first offensive and defensive All-League teams. Victory, a championship victory, the goal of the Black Knights for three intensive months of practice, was now only two hours away as the squad departed from the team bus, and prepared to meet their Day- croft School rivals on a cold cloudless Saturday late last November. Behind the Ponies laid a long and rewarding season, beginning with an initial 13-point victory over Saddle River, 26-13, and gaining in stature and momentum to a 48-6 conquest of Halsted School. Yet, to the members of the College High squad, all the accomplishments and all the efforts of the past weeks would mean nothing without the one final championship victory. Playing before a partisan Daycroft crowd, the Ponies attempted to accomplish what no other school had ever approached: to win the league champion- ship an unprecedented three times and retire the cov- eted Tri-State League trophy, symbol of football supremacy. Emotionalism and a fierce competitive spirit between the schools climaxed with the opening kickoff by College High. The Ponies, once gaining possession, overwhelmed the Daycroft defense for two scores opening up a 1 6-point first quarter lead. Yet, the breaks soon fell against College High and the speedy Daycroft runners tallied three scores before the referee ' s whistle signaled the end of the first half. Though trailing by a touch- down, the Ponies on that day were not to be denied. Phil Grece carries on end reverse as Bob Behrens leads blockers. The second half onslaught, led by Bob Behren ' s slic- ing runs, the marksman-like arm of Shep Hunting- ton, the clutch receptions by Hollis Williams and the heroic defensive assaults of Bob Schmidt, was more than Daycroft could weather. The Ponies, playing and tackling with reckless and almost savage-abandon, built a 14-point lead by the fourth period and soon victory was theirs! As the squad boarded the bus for their triumphant return trip, leaving the darkened battlefield at Day- croft School, the victory was a culmination of the efforts of some 1 5 dedicated team members. Prior to the season ' s beginning, observers questioned whether College High would win five games. Told that they lacked speed and quickness, told that they lacked a breakaway runner, told that they lacked an experi- enced coach, the squad hung together, further handi- capped by an excessive rash of injuries, and produced on the gridiron itself, a record unsurpassed by any previous College High ballclub. There were no tears in the victor ' s locker room, only joyous exuberance. They were all champions now, true champions from the loud boisterous seniors to the one lonely freshman. Above and right: The joyous Ponies celebrate their greatest victory. Varsity Basketball Kneeling: Craig Mousin. Robert Behrens. Hollis Williams, Jay Angoff, David Caldwell.

This year ' s College High basketball squad con- sisted of a promising group of veteran performers. Yet handicapped by injuries and an insufficient amount of practice, the Ponies began their season on a low note. Despite Shep Huntington ' s 3 1 points, the College High squad fell to Newark Academy, 80-61. The Montclair squad then traveled to Engle- wood.. Trailing throughout the game, the Ponies ' press enabled them to overcome a 2 3 -point deficit only to fall short, 62-60. Things took a turn for the better as St. Bernards fell, 59-56. C.H.S. jumped off to an early lead against the Saints and held on for victory. A fired-up quintet then played host to Englewood and led all the way for a 71-57 victory. Rutgers Prep next visited College High and were soundly trounced, 78- Fast-breaking Shep Huntington tallies two as Hollis Williams and Jay AngofT Icwk on. 65. A well-balanced scoring attack was led by Huntington with 20, Jay Angoff with 19, and Phil Grece with 16. College High then defeated Montclair Academy, 86-73, and prepared to face Morristown who, like the Ponies, were undefeated in league play. With a minute remaining. Bob Behrens sank two foul shots to tie the game, 26-26, and after a Morristown shot had missed, Shep Huntington calmly sank a foul shot with no time remaining to win the game, 27-26. After toppling St. James of Newark, the Ponies ' winning streak was stopped at Montclair Academy, 42-36, as College High was simply outhustled. They rebounded, however, with easy victories over St. James and Wardlaw. The Ponies then traveled to Morristown for an- other showdown for the league lead. Losing by 13 points at intermission. College High rallied to within a point, and with six seconds remaining, Shep Hunt- ington ' s clutch basket gave the Ponies a 47-46 vic- tory. Huntington, in playing the best game of his career, scored with 25 points. A high-spirited quintet then journeyed to St. Ber- nards. Though behind by just one at half-time, College High came out on the short end of a 56-49 count. The Ponies lost their second game in a row to Newark Academy, who unleashed a torrid fast break in the third quarter to break open a close game. C.H.S. got back into the win column with a 71-49 victory at Wardlaw. For the final game of the regular season. College High traveled to Rutgers Prep. A hard-fought first half ended with the Ponies on top by three, and the game remained close until the fourth quarter, when the College High press put the game on ice. The final score was 64-49, as College High ended the sea- son sporting a 11-5 record. Above: Bob Behrens scores on a patented twisting Behrens layup.

The 1968-1969 basketball campaign will rank among the most thrilling and exciting season entries in the annals of College High athletics. Playing in the hough Northern New Jersey Independent School League, the Ponies won the coveted championship and for the first time brought the stately NNJISL trophy to the hallowed halls of College High. Highlights of the season began early in December, as a winless, yet tough and aggressive College High quintet stunned the defending champion St. Bernards 78 Hollis Williams, after eluding Rutgers defender, shoots from the corner and scores. Saints 59-56 in a crucial early season contest. Nor will one forget the tension-filled home and home series against previously undefeated Morristown School. Though trailing at half-times in both con- tests, the spunky Montclair squad refused to be denied total victory. Each time led by Shep Huntington ' s valiant shooting, the Ponies rallied and toppled the Morris County school by consecutive one-point margins. However, as the victories over Morristown were joyous, the visiting losses to Montclair Academy and St. Bernards were equally bitter. Though playing hard and determinedly, the Ponies ' shots failed to fall through the hoop as College High returned from the road trip defeated twice. Yet perhaps made more determined by the defeats, the boys from College High captured the NNJISL Championship on the final day of the regular season. Traveling to the new Rutgers Prep gym, the Ponies out-shot and out-rebounded the Rutgers five in notch- ing a 57-43 victory. Once having captured the league championship, the eager ballclub eyed the state title as they garnered a berth in the NJISAA Group I State Tournament. After drawing an opening round bye, the Ponies prepared to do battle against a strong Chatham Boro foe. Playing before a good size crowd at Glen Ridge High School, the hustling College High squad built a 9-7 first quarter lead. Chatham, somewhat shaken, regrouped and in a powerful display of shooting led by as many as 12 points early in the third quarter. College High rooters wondered if the Ponies could come back once more; and indeed, behind the shoot- ing of Huntington and Angoff, behind the driving layups of Hollis ' Williams, behind the strong re- bounding of Bob Schmidt, the Ponies pulled within three baskets of the leaders. Yet, on that day, defeat was fated for the Montclair School, as the Ponies fell to Chatham 47-36. Kneeling: Mark Keown. Wes Baver, Robert Edison, Michael Caggiano. Richard Swatt. Glen Lovejoy.

This year ' s J.J.V basketball team was the most suc- cessful one since the legendary 1963-64 and 1964-65 teams, both of which were led by the present seniors, and sported records of 8-0. The J.J.V. ' s lost only two games all season, both to a much taller Montclair Academy team. In their 7-43 victory over Newark Academy, however, they showed that they will develop into fine varsity ballplayers. Special recognition must go to guard Roger Warner, who, although only a seventh grader, was take-charge guy of the team and the second highest scorer. Warner ' s back- court partner was another seventh grader, Harley Stein, who must gain the poise and confidence to go with his fine outside shot. The two big men on the team were eighth graders Jim Lyons and David Chapin. Lyons was not only a fine re- bounder, but also the team ' s high scorer (20 and 18 point efforts) with- a deadly lefty lay-up. The J.J.V. ' s were coached by Ron Gundry, who should be given a great deal of credit for the team ' s fine showing. Despite his duties as varsity coach, Mr. Gundry found enough time to weld five young, inexperienced individuals into one cohesive, smooth-running unit. Junior Varsity Basketball The 1968-69 J.V. basketball team, under first-year Coach Doyle, finished its season with a 6-6 record. After losing their first game to New- ark Academy, the team won its next two games against St. Bernards and Rutgers Prep before dropping three straight. The Ponies then trounced Wardlaw, 50-24, as Rich Swatt and Mark Keown combined for 34 points. Next the J.V. ' s fell to Ward- law, 59-45, despite Rich Swatt ' s 24 points. College High rebounded, however, with a 64-51 victory over St. Bernards. Swatt scored 19, and Wesley Baver had 18. After a loss to Newark Academy, the J. ' V. ' s finished up with two straight victories. In the final game of the season at Rutgers Prep, College High trailed for most of the game, but managed to tie the game at the end of regulation time. College High won in double overtime, as freshman Charlie Spector, at 4 ' 8 , dribbled rings around the entire Rutgers Prep team. Rich Swatt was the team ' s leading scorer, and got considerable help from Mark Keown and Mike Caggiano. Caggiano was the leading rebounder. J.J.V.

Below: Dick Hamilton and Glen Lovejoy race along the bu- colic paths of Mills Reserva- tion. The 1968 cross-country season was marked by many new innovations. Among them were the participation in the Essex County Championship and in the State Championship, the coaching debut of Arthur Thornton, and the emergence of Jeff Krause as a top-flight runner, able to compete with any of New Jersey ' s Group I runners. Winning has never been a tradition with the Harriers and this year proved to be no exception. Unfortunately many old problems plagued the team. Through graduation and retirement, many of last season ' s veterans were lost to the squad, thereby forc- ing many young runners into important varsity positions. Lacking depth and experience, the Harriers, though dedicated, could only tally a 2-11 record against their opposition. Indicative of the plight of the Harriers was able Captain Craig Mousin, the only runner with more than one year of experience. Though Jeff Krause and Mousin continually finished one-two in meets, the rest of the team simply could not follow their example. For this reason, the record is not indicative of the strength nor the potential of the squad. Dick Hamilton rounded out the strong junior commit- ment. Sophomores Wes Baever, Glenn Lovejoy, and Eddie Johnson are the key to success in the future. Although they were not members of the varsity, freshmen Barry Eitel and Mike Sedlewicz will com- plete the rebuilding process. With this as a nucleus, next year should be a good one for the College High Harriers.

The 1969 College High School baseball season will be one of interest for several reasons. This year ' s team lacks two very important qualities, experience and depth. With underclassmen filling many im- portant positions, the squad remains unseasoned and untested. Yet, the Ponies ' hopes lie on the abilities of these inexperienced sophomores and juniors who will be assuming varsity duties for the first time. The pitching seems to be the strong point of the squad with Shep Huntington and Dave Caldwell handling most of the mound chores. Yet, there is the absence of a good relief man which could be a factor late in the campaign. Completing the battery will be junior Phil Grece, a sound receiver with a good arm. The key, however, to the Pony defense lies in the infield. At shortstop is Mark Keown, an untested rookie, while Bob Edison appears sound at third base. At second base Rich Swatt and Charles Spector vie for the job, both being rookies with little game experience. Rounding out the defensive interior will probably be Huntington and John White alternating at the first base position. The out- field is solid in left and center where Craig Mousin and Mike Kowalski will roam after fly balls. The right field spot seems to be up for grabs, but the leading candidate is Bob Behrens, a newcomer to the diamond. Although lacking hitting power and speed on the base paths, the Ponies look to Grece, Mousin, and Huntington to supply the baseball contingent with some offense punch. Overall, the squad appears to be in for some rough going unless the rookies can play like veterans, and the veterans can play better than they have ever played before. 1969 ROSTER 12 Behrens — OF, IB 12 Huntington — P, IB 1 2 Mousin — CF 1 1 Caldwell — P 1 1 Edison — 3B 1 1 Grece — C I 1 Kowalski — CF 1 Keown — SS 10 Swatt — 2B !

Cynthia Fendrich, Elizabeth Bingham, Mindy Fink, Christine Glass. Astrid Rehl, Ann Lobbregt. Janet Graeter. The amazing success of this year ' s football and basketball teams may well be attributed to the spirited and enthusiastic cheering squad that so staunchly sup- ported them. As well as sponsoring the annual Kick- Off Dance and many noontime pep rallies, the girls loyally attended all games and provided refreshments including drinks, sandwiches and cookies after each game. With the final completion bf the gym. the group was able to hold frequent practices and to perfect old cheers while inspirationally creating many new ones. Due to their diligence, the pep rally pre- ceding the championship football game was an astounding success, providing the additional impetus ■needed to stimulate the boys into attaining the much- coveted football championship. Some credit must be given to Captain Mindy Fink and Co-captain Betsy Bingham, but the success of the squad as a smooth-functioning and well-co- ordinated group was naturally due to the spirit of each and every cheerleader. The girls were aided by their able advisor, Miss Joyanne Miller. Always concerned with their wel- fare, she often procured refreshments for them during long waits before games as well as presenting each senior cheerleader with a megaphone at the fall sports banquet. As College High begins its tragic phase-out. much credit must be given to this spirited squad and their advisor for spurring the football and basketball teams on to their victorious finale. 82 Above: Co-captain Betsy Bingham and Captain Mindy Fink relax after a wearisome pep rally.

In the past the J.V. cheerleading squad consisted of seventh and eighth grade girls, and cheered for the J. J.V. basketball team. This system, however, was unfair to the ninth grade girls, who wished to see the older boys in action, and so this year the squad was composed of eighth and ninth grade girls who cheered for the J.V. team. The new J.V. cheerleaders were immediatel y well received. Wearing old varsity uniforms, the lower hall cheerleaders were hard to tell apart from their upper hall counterparts, and were no doubt instru- mental in inspiring the J.V. team to its six victories. Next year ' s cheerleading squad will find it difficult to improve on this season ' s performance, as freshmen Dawn Adams and Carol Johnson look like sure-fire varsity material. However, with a host of eighth graders returning, led by Kim Weiss and Beth Davis, the J.V. cheerleading squad will continue to be an integral part of College High life. r Patrons and Advertisements The seniors wish to thank the many patrons and advertisers whose support has made this yearbook possible. 84 Ablem Stamp Company Dr. and Mrs. Hugh Allen Mr. and Mrs. Allan Angoff Mr. and Mrs. Remick V.
