Columbia High School - Mirror Yearbook (Maplewood, NJ)

Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1939 volume:

THE MIRROR PUBLISHED BY THE CLASS OF 1939 COLUMBIA HIGH SCHOOL SOUTH ORANGE AND MAPLEWOOD NEW JERSEY Out on Flushing Meadows there is rapidly nearing completion an exhibit known as the World's Fair of 1939. This fair promises to be the biggest and finest ever staged, if we are to believe the advance publicity. The keynote of the fair is explained in its slogan: Building the World of Tomorrow. The fair itself symbolizes the world of tomorrow, and the exhibits, which cover almost everything under the sun, not only stress what is being done today, but what will be done tomorrow. We have borrowed the slogan of the World's Fair, Building the World of Tomorrow, for our yearbook, because we think it is particularly significant to the students of today. When our parents went to school, the same subjects were taught year in and year out: English, Algebra, French, Latin, with an occasional flyer in Greek. School work in their day was a chore. No one particularly liked school because the subjects taught were forced upon the unwilling student. There were no extra-curricular activities through which the student could express himself with the exception of a few sports and an occasional literary Today all that has been changed. The courses that are offered in our own Columbia High School are useful as well as academic. Besides the neces- sary three R's, we have many subjects which are subscribed to by the stu- dents, not because they must take them but because they want to take them. Students stay in by choice long after the school day closes. Our extra- curricular activities are many and varied, giving everyone a chance to participate in that which is nearest and dearest to his heart. Those interested in dramatics may practice the art of acting by joining one of the dramatic clubs. Those interested in designing stage sets or in erecting them can do so by joining the Art Club or by becoming a member of the stage crew. Besides these activities, there are many others in which a student may enter, space preventing us from mentioning them all, though they are none the less worthy of recognition. Therefore we have chosen Building the World of Tomorrow the theme of our yearbook because we believe that Columbia has not only helped to prepare us for our life in present-day society but also has made us conscious of our obligations toward the future world which is to be ours. club. —1939 Worrouj 1939— 5 Yl jedSa e prom our f rincipa To the Students of Columbia High School: The Mirror Staff is to be commended, it seems to me, not only for providing us with this fine record of what has happened in our school life, but especially for directing our attention to the future by dedicating this volume to the theme, Building the World of Tomorrow. In school, as everywhere else in life, we become so involved in the details of living now that we frequently fail not only to see the larger relationships of things but often to anticipate the future. School is sup- posed to help us solve the problems of living today and tomorrow. What are these prob- lems? One cannot guess all of them nor describe any of them in detail, but some of the most important ones seem to me to be as follows: 1. Group relationships. We are all mem- bers of a family, a community, a state, a nation, and certain special groups. We should learn how to make worthwhile contributions to the welfare of each and all of these groups and how to get along with the other members of these groups. In a democracy such as ours this means a peculiarly delicate appreciation of one's individual rights and his responsibilities and obligations to the group. 2. Maintenance of health. It seems obvious that good health—mental, emotional, and physical—is one of the great challenges in living and basic to our success in all endeavors. 3. Economic Security. Each of us has the problem of self-support with which to reckon, and we should expect to con- tribute to the economic welfare of the group. Our vocation should not only provide sustenance for ourselves and our dependents but should also afford us an opportunity to serve others. 4. Right and wrong. Each of us needs to appreciate right and wrong. We need to develop a code of ethics to guide our every act. 5. Leisure time. Living is a combination of work and play. Healthful recreation is a real problem in a life, a good part of which is filled with leisure time. 6. Satisfaction and growth. The thrill of living is directly dependent on one's ca- pacity to get worthwhile satisfaction out of life and his ability to keep on growing. Very briefly and inadequately expressed, these seem to me to be some of the major problems each of us must face. To a large extent we must be self-directive in taking advantage of the opportunities provided in school and in life to meet these challenges satisfactorily. May you solve these problems success- fully for yourselves and thereby become Builders of the World of Tomorrow! Cordially yours, CURTIS H. THRELKELD. —1939 6 1939 John H.

Not only have we been prepared by our studies, but also by other school activ- ities, such as student government, clubs, sports, and class projects. How well we have availed ourselves of these assets can only be told in the future. One of the foremost of the extra-curricular activities in which we have participated was self-government through the school council. In this field the Class of Nineteen Thirty Nine has brought credit to itself and to Columbia through the capability of its council president, Walter Avery, and the other officers, Margaret Ann Hoppock, Susan Weeks, and Jack Bayer, and the various committees. Opportunities for those of us journalistically inclined have been avail- able in the Columbian and the Mirror. We hope our efforts in these activities have helped to improve these publications as much as they have afforded us pleasure and advantages for serious endeavor. Clubs have always been centers of interest in our years in Columbia. Our thespians have had the Sophomore Dramatic Club and the Parnassian Society as outlets for their talent, and many excellent productions have been pre- sented. The language clubs have received our support as well as the various groups organized for hobby work. The Kilocycle Club was founded by a group of our class interested in amateur radio. Perhaps more in the field of sports than anywhere else we had the oppor- tunity to bring glory to the Red and Black. Captained by Walt Wiesmiller, with Ed Arnolt, our class president, calling the plays, this year's football team did itself great credit. The Class of Nineteen Thirty Nine was able to furnish some excellent playing material that was shaped into a winning combination by Mr. Marvel. Also in other major sports we have had a chance to exhibit Columbia's athletic prowess. Connick Doran's diving won him the state title, and he and other of our swimmers have helped to make our pool team one of the best. On the tennis and basketball court, the baseball field, and the cinder track, members of our class have given creditable performances. Our chief activity as a class has been the production of Junior Night and the Senior Play. It is by these presentations that we have been able to do the most materially for Columbia, the proceeds of them being contributed to the Student Aid Fund. Thus we have had the opportunity to augment this scholar- ship fund and at the same time to produce two shows that afforded us a great deal of interest and pleasure. Our original Junior Night, Rigadoon,” set a precedent in being pre- sented two nights before capacity audiences. Its theme, a short Western romance, encompassed a variety of musical and dancing acts. The senior year production, Star Wagon, was also very well received. The many weeks' work on it was amply rewarded by favorable recognition. Now, after having had the benefit of these experiences in our years at Columbia, we can only hope that we have profited sufficiently by them. Also, we cannot be too grateful for the earnest efforts for us and the interest in us on the part of our teachers and guides. The friendships we have formed here are another great factor in what constitutes our high school education. Everything w© have done and everything that has been done for us in this period of our life has helped to build our future. Indeed, so much has been offered to us in our preparation for the years ahead that we owe a debt to Columbia High School that we can never hope fully to repay. 10 TOP ROW: Andrew Johnson, Roland Schambach, William Agnew, Raymond Finley, Richard Brown.

That cold, heartbreaking day the Juniors beat the Seniors in soc- cer because of a goal accidentally made for the underclassmen by a Senior fullback?

The battle of the nations in Frau Gates German III class when her four Vaterland scholars and her eight land-of-the-freers took turns laughing at each others' ludicrous mistakes in the respec- tive languages? Ach du lieber, solch eine Klasse! John Redfern and the five cheerleaders trying to put over Heigh- Ho to a dwarTunconscious cheering section intent on Skipper Wiesmiller and his ten giants digging for T.D.'s on the field? 404—need we say more? Mr. Chase and his persistent pursuit of the Nicotine Knights? The time the tar barrel caught fire on the parking area and two fully-equipped fire trucks plus the hook-and-ladder arrived on the scene? Miss Nichols and The upshot of the matter is-- ? Gallant Keith and little Joan? (They find it easy sledding; The only thing that we bemoan, We won't attend the wedding). 57 Senior We, the Class of '39, having absorbed much weighty knowledge and hav- ing covered more than sufficiently the required courses, prepare to conquer new fields. Before we leave, it is our wish to benefit others and hereby to bequeath our accomplishments, possessions, opinions, and deeds in this our last will and testament which we, in a sound state of mind and body, declare published. We the Senior Class bequeath: Item I: To the Juniors—our drag, personality and savoir faire. With these even you may go far. Item II: To the Juniors—our one fault, not knowing the words of Ye Olde Alma Mater—three verses. Item III: To Miss Paine's sophomore homeroom—our best wishes for suc- ceeding in having a class dance. Item IV: To Miss Tollefson and Mr. Wood—our deep appreciation for toiling painful hours on Star-Wagon and Rigadoon . Item V: To the faculty—a fond remembrance of young America express- ing itself. Item VI: To Monsieurs Parsons and Decker—an alarm clock set for 8:24 to shoo in loquacious loiterers. Item VII: To Miss Nichols—an English class of spirit that gets somewhere. Item VIII: To Miss Wilcox—a library with sound proof cells for the soli- tary confinement of students and a safe to hold collected fines and I. O. U.'s. Item IX: To Mr. Gray—a large donation so as an alumnus of Harvard he may endow several football heroes. Personal: Item I: I, Jack Crosson, leave my angel kisses (Dimples to you) to Katy Stewart, and may she smile more brightly for them. Item II: I, Margaret Anne Hoppock, do bequeath to Jinny Vose my hero worship of football stars. Item III: I, Dick Hooke, leave to posterity, my hope for the capitalists and Republican party—Oh—me—if only there were more Hookes upon which to hang the Democrats. Item IV: I, Lillian Nelles, leave my bicycle bloomers from Senior Play to Jean Nason and Patty Wander for use every morn. Item V: We, Fritz Hyde and Sweet Johnson, leave our astute detective ability for tracking down hen parties and our brute force for crashing 'em to Phil Kirchner and Chris Brannigan. Item VI: We, the Jizzies, do leave to Rader, Van Ness, Thayer, Johns, and associates our screwball reputation topped by our straw-hats. Item VII: I, Helen Mueller, leave my Friday afternoon seventh period shampoos to anyone who feels the need of a hairwash. Item VIII: I, Charles Don-Wan Aufderhar, do hereby solemnly bequeath my way with the women to Bob Whinery who definitely needs it. Item IX: I, Bill Lawder, leave my rolling gait to one Bill Barnes. It gets you there fast. Item X: I, Walt Weismiller, leave my tender blush and brawny shoulders to that eminent citizen of Kentucky, I. Russel Geib. Item XI: We, the literate members of the Senior Class, three in all, be- queath Hamlet to the all-suffering Juniors. Afterthought: But is it ours to leave? We've been studying it for two months and are only on the second scene. Lastly, we, the Senior Class, bequeath to the Juniors, the Star-Wagon as we hitch our wagon to a star this twenty-third day of June in the nineteen hundred and thirty-ninth year of our Lord, and declare this, our last will and testament, signed, sealed, and published. —1939 BA M lofJLorrou ....................................1939— 58 SENIOR STATISTICS Tho Fortune” Survey and the Institute of Public Opinion have not polled the country on these statistics, but the recent Senior Elections revealed the following results.

S. by that grand old man of the Supreme Court, Chief Justice Don Fields. At the President's side is Jeanne Hochette, First Lady of the Land, Vice-President of the U. S., Head of the D. A. R., the Girl Scouts, and many other honorary institutions. Also in attendance are Henry (I hate everything) Robinson, National Chairman of the Radical Communists (he caused a split in the party), Dick Hooke, Secretary of State, Jack Bayer, Secretary of the Treasury, Jack Crosson, rising young D. A. of Maplewood who has cleaned up the town, Pattie Bell, Senator from Louisiana who recently set a record for the longest filibuster, and those other members of the Supreme Court, Bob Gasimeyer, Jack A. Middleton III, Jack Ellor, Steve Monohan, A1 Scott, Bob Keyser, Fritz Hyde, and Sweet Johnson. The last two named are known in political circles as the Jitterbug Judges. In New York those famous thespians Lillian Nelles, John Redfern, and David McBride are rehearsing their latest vehicle entitled the Star-Wagon under the capable direction of Jean Thomas who recently won a prize for her painting of a contented cow. In a nearby theater a famous ballet dancer, Janet Krauss, rehearses to the strains of Charlie Benfield's symphony orchestra in which those noted exponents of cultural music, Dick Jayson, Roy (here he is girls) Kirch, and Scott Mitchell, play while Harold Connor (South Orange Canary) warbles a lilting lullaby. Meanwhile on the twentieth floor of the Empire State building those two business tycoons (or typhoons) Bob Weller and Sam Whinery are being interviewed by the star reporter of the N. Y. Mirror, Bob Geiger, and painted by famous artist Dan Price. In one of the most famous of women's shops there is a fashion show going on before the cream of society, including Bea Gould and Marilyn Marsden. Three of the models most famous for their great beauty are Elinor Boyce, Carol Everett, and Roberta Pfautz. Fame has come to many old Red and Blacks on the athletic field, too. Walt (look at those shoulders) Weismiller and Tom (look at those shoulders) Sullivan attained All-American fame on the gridiron. At Forest Hills, even now, Bud Brown and Madeleine Connolly are winning the National cham- pionships. The Olympic team is on its way to Holland to compete. On the vessel are Bill Agnew and Bill Lawder, the nucleus of the track squad; Miggie Hoppock, aquatic star; and Hink Richardson, weight lifter who even now is tuning up for the games by lifting some weights. Down in the hold Connick Doran, famous baseball player, is telling an interested audience of one, Con- nick Doran, famous Olympic diver, how he struck out with the bases loaded to enable the N. Y. Giants to defeat the Cleveland Indians and win their seventh successive World's Championship. Accompanying the team are those two ace sports writers, Willie (Isn't he cute) Ruggles and Barbara Norton. Moving westward we see two white, ivy-covered cottages. In one dwell Ken (short cheer for) Norris and his little wife, Bette (Turck); and in the other reside those other biller and cooers , Keith Kinyon and Joan (Young) (as if you didn't know). We can also see Pat Shotwell waitin' and pinin' (see New York entry) while raising her championship fuzzy dogs. Passing the cow-coun- try we see those famous cow-punchers and Indian fighters Lloyd Robinson, Ed Mason, Swede Swanstrom, and Ed Arnolt. Coming to Hollywood we see famous Pulitzer-prize-winning playwright, John de Lorenzi, telling somebody how to do something. We also see those two matinee idols, Hallam (Clark) Walker and Hal (Tyrone) Bolsover waving their profiles under California's favorite sun (get it). Here, too, we see that temperamental star, Prissy Richardson, storming out of a studio because pro- ducers Fraser Bent and Sam Goldwyn (not Columbia Class of '39) refuse to produce First Lady. jftropL ropnecy 60 QUILT PLEASE TOONE.RVILLE.

But now I've become a Jun-ior, And I haven't gained a thing; I'm just as bad off as I was before, And this is what I sing: CHORUS: I'm caught between two burning fires. Seniors mighty and Sophomores green. Not in the heights nor in the mires— I'm just an In-Between. I'm too old to bo silly, too young to be bold, The situation is very moan. Wherever I go. I'm out in the cold— I'm just an In-Between. I can't boast of my innocence, youth, or size. When I meet up with the Dean,- All I can do is make up some lies— I'm just an In-Between. I long for that distant, far-away day, I can start with a slate that's clean; When I'll be a Senior, and they can't over say That I'm just an In-Between. 74 1939— 144 Faculty Adviser MR.

We are the post graduates. Although we started as a class of forty-four students, we have said good-bye and wished good luck to about fifteen fellow P. G.'s, most of whom have obtained positions and are now contributing to their future social security. Most of us who remain are looking forward to securing positions some place in busi- ness, which will in time, we hope, offer an opportunity for advancement. In accordance with tradition here at Columbia, the post graduates of 1938-39 took charge of the Thanksgiving Day program: We planned and executed a successful campaign for donations. We were especially pleased by the unusually large contributions of food offered this Thanksgiving season for our less fortunate neighbors in the South Orange-Maplewood district. More than fifty baskets, filled with well balanced supplies for families of 6, 8, 10, or 12, were contributed. The class also arranged for a very fine assembly speaker, Dr. Foster, of the Calvary Methodist Church of East Orange, whose message was appreciatively received. A point worthy of note about our group is the fact that an unusually large proportion of the post graduates have been active in school life this year, serving on committees and working in clubs. The officers are as follows: Bob Arras, chairman; Francis Cain, vice-chairman; Rosita Caballaro, secretary; Miss Genthner, faculty adviser. —1939 Built] Jovorrou------1939— 82 1939-----3 uiwnT The I ..« � . 1 morrouj 1939— otnore I am a cute though helpless SOPHOMORE; I'm lost and dazed in all this work and speed. My Mom and Pop, they think that I adore Old C. H. S.—but they are wrong, indeed! If luck abides with me in my exams, I'll leave this first-year life I so deplore; But then, alas, I'll join these JUNIOR hams— Perhaps I'd better stay a SOPHOMORE. Sometimes I think 'twould be so very grand If I could be a noble SEN-I-OR; But I don't like this smug and snooty band— I guess I'm glad to be a SOPHOMORE. Next year — by the sweat of your feet and the grace of the Lord — you will be Juniors. Do not be too anticipatory, though, for the post of a Junior is perhaps the most forgotten-manish in school. Even the janitors are unap- preciated by some one, but as a Junior you must expect to withdraw meekly into your shell, close the door, and seal it with old exam papers. You will have no dramatic club, and your only outlet will be your Junior Night — which, I am sure — can never equal that of the class of 1939. The girls will all have to find paramours in their own class, for the seniors of the male gender will all be eying the new crop of Sophomore girls. The boys visa versa, for the Sophomore boys will all be out hunting for a Senior to display. So have fun while you may, children; for in the coming year you will be so busy explaining to Miss Leech and evading Mr. Thompson that your enter- tainment will certainly be limited. —By a Disgruntled Member of the Mirror Staff (irate because the Sophs, didn't write this page for themselves). —1939—'BMfikC 'Orrouj 1939— 84 1939 SCHEDULE Date Columbia Opponent September 24 47 Lincoln . 0 October 1 7 Plainfield fi October 8 13 Morristown . 0 October 15 27 Orange . 0 October 22 7 Westfield . 0 October 29 7 Montclair .14 November 5 7 New Brunswick 0 November 12 6 East Orange . 7 November 24 0 .... .West Orange ... . 6 Total Points 121 Opponents .33 MARVEL Head Coach BAKER Asst.

Captained by Walt Wiesmiller, the lone former varsity player, the Cougars journeyed to Plainfield where they met with greater opposition than was experienced in their initial fray, but by scoring seven points in the last forty seconds of play were able to emerge victorious over the Blue team, 7-6. Columbia's aerial attack and strong defense were instrumental in the victories over Mor- ristown and Orange by the one-sided scores of 13-0 and 27-0 respectively. At Underhill Field the following Saturday, Westfield, usually an easy mark, held Colum- bia to a mere 7-0 victory. An unexpected event then occurred. The Montclair Mountaineers, with an unimpressive record behind them, eked out a 14-7 victory over Columbia to put the Gems on the losing end of a score for the first time in twenty-seven games. On home ground the next week, the Cougars conquered the strong New Brunswick eleven 7-0 by means of a spurt in the last three minutes of play. Although the Marvelmen outpassed and outgained their next rival, East Orange, they failed to outscore them, and went down to defeat for the second time of the season, losing by the count of 7-6. In the twenty-fourth renewal of the Thanksgiving Day series, West Orange overpowered the Red and Black for the first time since 1934. In spite of the fact that they did not win this game, the Cougars displayed fine defensive play and a will-to-win spirit which held the opponent to a 6-0 score. —1939------------------------------3d liny 7 ?6 f Jomorrouj 1939 88 a ationd THE COLUMBIAN This year The Columbian has completely shifted its policy and has become person- alized. The School Council questioned the student body about its desires for a newspaper, the editors and faculty advisers complied with the results of the poll, and the business staff conducted a lively subscription drive. The training class in journalism for sophomores, started last year, has continued, and the idea of joint editors has been furthered. In the annual Columbia Press Association Convention The Columbian again earned a second-place rating, thus proving that the changes in policy have not lowered the publication's standards. More- over, the popularity of The Columbian has increased among students. PARNASSIAN SOCIETY Since its establishment in 1926 the Parnassian Society has always been an active organi- zation in Columbia High School. Membership offers students an excellent opportunity in vari- ous branches of stagecraft: Acting, playwriting, music, lighting, scenery and costume design, and make-up. The society presents annually three assembly programs and a gala public pro- duction once a year. The officers this year are Harold Bolsover, president; Jeanne Hochette, vice-president; Eleanor McMahon, secretary; and Kenneth Norris, treasurer. In February an excellent cast of players, headed by Margaret Gibbons and Lloyd Robinson, enacted George Bernard Shaw's Arms and the Man,'' a very clever and amusing satire on war, directed by Miss Mildred Memory, faculty sponsor of the society. FRENCH CLUB The French Club is an organization for students interested in French. Membership is open to students who have had at least one year of French. The meetings are held once a month, and each is conducted in the French language. These meetings are planned and directed by the club officers, under the supervision of the sponsors, Miss Wolcott, Miss Carrigan, and Miss Freeman. Some of the programs include plays, games, lectures, and special trips to New York to see French films. Perhaps the most outstanding event of the year is the annual Christmas party of the language clubs and classes, when each group contributes appropriate musical and dramatic selections. This year's officers include Jean Thomas, president; Nancy Wiley, vice-president; Joan Young, secretary; Robert Hoops, treasurer. CINEMA CLUB The purpose of the Cinema Club is to give its members useful information about motion pictures, with the idea of promoting critical appreciation of the movies as a social art. A num- ber of committees—research, program, amateur movie, contact, student operators, leaison, publicity—allow the members to participate in the branch of motion picture work which most interests them. The program committee attempts to arrange balanced programs for the bi- monthly meetings, presenting outside speakers, demonstrations, games, and pictures. Outside activities of the club include trips to Radio City, Long Island studios, museums, and a num- ber of local theaters. The officers are as follows: Mary Barkley, president; Gilbert Gaus, vice-president; Frances VanKeuren, secretary; Walter Klein, treasurer. LATIN CLUB Throughout its many years of existence in Columbia, the Latin Club has aimed to give its members worthwhile information about Rome and the Romans. This year the club has successfully endeavored to carry on with this purpose, providing not only interesting informa- tion about Rome, but also fun and relaxation (Roman banquet style) at its monthly meetings. Professor Quiz programs and talks on modern and ancient Europe by guest speakers have been outstanding events in the programs presented xhis year. Perhaps the highlight of the year was the December meeting in which Saturnalia, an important Roman holiday, was re-enacted and celebrated by the club. The officers are: Jim Carlaw, president; Marie-Ott Kleeman, vice- president; Madeline Mitchell, secretary; Bill Barnes, treasurer. —1939---- utlai n j met orrou 89 1939— COMMERCIAL CLUB The Commercial Club, open to any student taking at least one course in the commercial department, aims to offer opportunities for the development of leadership, good fellowship, and personality. It tries to stimulate and broaden interest in commercial work beyond that given in the class-room. The outstanding activities of this year have been visits to the Annual Business Show and the Prudential Insurance Company, Miss Celin Kaye's talk on Social Development, the annual Christmas Dance, an assembly program featuring Albert Tangora, world champion typist, and the annual typewriting contest. The officers include Jane Davis, president; Dorothy Hick, vice-president; Alberta Pierce, secretary; Ann Coccuzzo, treasurer. GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The G. A. A. is the organization which directs girls' athletics in Columbia. Governed by a council, and guided by Miss Allen, Miss Darrow, and Miss Jacobs, it sponsors the soccer, basketball, swimming, volley ball, baseball, and tennis inter-class tournaments. The club arranges three annual social affairs: A fall party for sophomores; a Christmas dance; and a spring banquet. The banquet culminates the year's activities; the new officers and council members are installed; awards are distributed; and the seniors are assembled for the last time as members of an association which has given them fun, exercise, and a spirit of sports- manship. This year's officers are Barbara Norton, president; Jeanne Hochette, vice-president; Lillian Nelles, secretary; Teddy Barlow, treasurer. BOYS' ART CLUB The Boys' Art Club aims to foster in its members an appreciation of the fine arts and crafts and to give them a glimpse of the art world of today so that they may decide whether or not they would like to follow art as a profession or as a hobby. In order to reach this decision, club members have an opportunity to evaluate their own talent by matching their skills with those of others. During the year, as a direct contact with the art world, the club visits at least one gallery and school in New York. The current officers are John Koenig, president; Ted Griffinger, vice-president; Dan Price, secretary; Bill Mums, treasurer. SOPHOMORE DRAMATIC CLUB (See page 99) TABLE TENNIS CLUB The 1938-39 season of the Table Tennis Club got off to a flying start with an open tourna- ment, the winner of which was Teddy Cohn, this year's president. Other officers elected for the season include Dick Board, vice-president; Jean Dalrymple, secretary; and Henry Hedden, treasurer. Features of the club program were the ladder tournament, which lasted the entire season; a girls' tournament; and matches with other high schools. The purpose of the club is to promote skill and further competitive spirit in students. It also provides an opportunity for social contacts, and for the development of a fine year-round hobby. MUSIC BOX Sponsored by Mr. Russell Shenton, the Music Box is Columbia's club for musically inclined students. The organization has four important purposes: to encourage musical talent; to give talented students a chance to promote their musical interests; to give students an opportunity to further their musical knowledge; and to give them experience in perform- ing before an audience. The officers this year are: President, Jack Koenig; Vice-president, Marilyn Jenkins; Secretary, Betty Dickson; Treasurer, Georgette Rebaza. MUSIC ORGANIZATIONS Columbia is justly proud of the fine entertainment provided throughout the year by the Orchestra, Band, Service Orchestra, Boys' Glee Club, and Girls' Glee Club. Many fine assembly programs were provided by these units, as well as some very excellent spacial programs and concerts. A joint entertainment, with Mr. Arthur Pryor and Mr. Charles Thetford as guest artists, was enthusiastically received. Mr. Russell Shenton sponsors the Orchestra and the Glee Clubs, while Mr. Charles Batchelder sponsors the Band and Service Orchestra. 90 The Class of 1939 chose Maxwell Anderson's intensely human and compelling study of American life, The Star- Wagon, for its senior play. The result was a well-knit, six-sot production worthy of Columbia dramatic tradition. The Star-Wagon is the saga of a small-time, homespun inventor, Stephen Minch. Ho is despondent because all his inventions have been patented by his employer, Charles Duffy, thus riveting him to a thirty-dollar per week salary and forcing his wife, Martha, to consider him a failure. Determined to re-live his life so that he and Martha might marry for money instead of love, and thereby find happiness, Stephen and his best friend, Hanus, turn back the years with the aid of the Star-Wagon, a time machine which Stephen worked out. When he actually does achieve wealth, Stephen realizes how shallow and superficial his happiness is. In the end, he returns to Martha, knowing that no matter how poor or insignificant they may be in the eyes of the world, real happiness is theirs. The theme of The Star-Wagon is far from new. It is more Mr. Anderson's treatment of his material than any outstanding originality that makes for the success of the play. It is alternately wise and witty; tender and harsh; light and sad; yet at all times it remains buoyant and alive. The writer's characters are not demi-gods, incapable of human failings. Mr. Andorson has created human beings, people you might meet on the street any time, and in so doing has insured the universality of every person in the play. Miss Christie Tollefson handled the direction with a sincere understanding of the play; and her players, plus a motivating skill, maintained a fresh and timely quality throughout the production. The acting loft little to be desired. David McBride, as Stephen, gave a distinctively honest performance, helped immeasurably by an innate reticent quality particularly adapted to his role. Lillian Nelles, portraying Martha, dis- played an exceptional versatility of temperament by shifting quickly from a tired, old woman to a gay, light- hearted figure. The majority of the comedy was ably supplied by John Redfern (Hanus Wicks) who fitted snugly into his part and proceeded to wear it to great advantage. Walter Avery (Charles Duffy) and Cornelia Watson (Mrs. Rutledge) featured an excellent and versatile supporting cast. With six shifts of scene and many technical probloms to cope with, the various committees, so necessary for the success of the venture, workod with a zest for endeavor which was a tribute to the persevorence, resourceful- ness, and ingonuity of the entire class. — 1939 91 QJi ’ Sail Sports After an unusually warm practice season, the juniors proved their metal as they won the soc- cer tournament beneath suddenly frosty skies. Coats and mittens were taken out of mothballs for the nevertheless shivering crowd which watched the middleclassmen resolutely kick their way to victory by the margin of three games. The Juniors won seven games, grant- ing a humbled Senior squad and a bedraggled Sophomore combine only four and two respec- tively. As soon as teams began to materialize amid the welter of bruised angles, trick kickoffs, and weaving dribbling, it seemed fairly certain that this was to be the Juniors' day. With cap- able second and third teams, their powerful first team was sure to clinch the victory. With Captain Jean Yorkey leading a close-knit de- fense and with Lucy Long, Regina Zelinsky, and Teddy Barlow forming a shattering offense, the first ranking Juniors lived up to expectations in scoring easy victories against both opposing classes. The number of bruised skins, swollen ankles, and blackened eyes which each year deck the halls of Columbia, testifies that soccer is neither slow nor gentle. This year, however, the physi- cal education department, apparently discon- tent with its usual quota of wounded heroines, instituted a new and faster game, speedball. A mixture of soccer and basketball, it combines the bruising kicking of the one with the breath- less passing of the other; unexperienced, this year's gym classes were a trifle dazed by it. With courts flooded by the hurricane, the fall tennis tournament was off to a sluggish start and was still being played when the Thanks- giving Day snow caused a hurried change from racquet to skiis. The greater part of the gym classes finished their tournaments on time, however. From these miniature competitions, the winners were graduated to the spring tour- nament in which Jean Nason, Jackie Muelber- ger, Dora Stalder, and Corinne Steers were considered likely threats for the title. And so the autumn season closed with the Juniors, because of their soccer victory, leading in banner competition by seventeen points to the Seniors' twelve and the Sophomores' seven, but with many class clashes still to come. 9?

Al- though the play was first produced in 1894, its contemporary significance is as immediate now as it was then. Arms and the Man is concerned chiefly with the rationalization of soldiering, the folly of war, and the dainty idealism of Raina, the play's heroine and the daughter of rumbling Major Petkoff, one of the military men who had to bo taught the rudiments of military strategy and tactics. It is fortunately and typically Shawian that the chocolate soldier angle and the bleery-eyed romanticism of the play do not run away with the proceedings and spoil the entire effect. It is the suave Captain Bluntschli who teaches the Major's side how to fight, who dazzles Raina with his worldliness, and wins her affections from the dashing young officer, Sergius. As is customary, Shaw's own personality shines through all of the characters. His personal forcefulness shows up continually and is a partial reason for his great success as a writer. What is more important, most of his comedy is still comical, his linos are still witty and gay, and his appeal strong. After nearly a half-century that is a tribute to his greatness. It is exceedingly gratifying to report that a great deal of originality appeared in the sets and that they wore colorful and well executed. Miss Mildred Memory contributed her usual well-paced directorial style, keeping her necessary limits in mind throughout. Ken Norris headed the cast with a convincing portrayal of Sergius, the egotistical and proud young officer. As Raina, Margaret Gibbons was properly innocent and outwardly superior. Harold Bolsover turned in a masterly piece of credible character acting as Major Petkoff, scorner of regular bathing and the possessor of little military knowledge. The juiciest part of all was that of Captain Bluntschli, the quick-tongued and suavely confident choco- late soldier, played to the hilt by Lloyd Robinson. Others who contributed well-acted performances were Barbara Hoydt as the sagacious and supremely proud menial Louka; Charles Aufderhar as Nicolai, the Major's trustworthy and prudent servant; May Lyman as Raina's mother; and Walt Avery as an officer. — 1939 'imorrouj 1939 S mmnung WM.

The theme of Jonah Junior was evolved from the pitiable lament of Hoboken Ferry commuter Oscar J. Whipplewood and his desire for a change from the routinized life of a transient breadwinner. When his ferry collides with another boat, he jumps overboard, floats out to sea, and is swallowed by a whale. Here, Jonathan Jones, a mild, naive young cub reporter enters the scene, assigned by F. T. Farnsworth, his sardonic and variable editor, to bring Whipplewood back from the caver- nous insides of the whale. With the help of whaling captain John MacPherson, he invades the domain of King Neptune and discovers Whipplewood is happy and contented. He persuades the commuter to return to the outside world only by proving to him that he is missed by his friends on the ferry each morning. In Jonah Junior we had that pleasing and infrequent combination—a fantastic yet sub- stantial story plus sprightly singing and dancing. The dialogue was witty, original, and timely; and the situations were humorous and well-planned. All the dances were skillfully staged, especially the one with the four gobs and the offi- cers. The sets were brilliantly colored and lighted, and the costumes showed outstanding originality of design. The work of the chorus and soloists added immeasurably to the vitality and buoyancy of the entire production. Mr. Stanley Wood's well-paced direction kept the proceedings moving at a rapid rate without sacrificing any unity in theme. Like many other of this year's productions, the acting was above par. Bill McLoughlin was properly innocent as Jonathan Jones; while Paul Ames was exceptionally good as his sarcastic editor. Bill Barnes, as usual, came through with another superlative job of make- believe as the high-pitched Whipplewood. Phil Brown displayed a fine Scottish accent as Captain MacPherson; and Eleanor Dorsey, as Jones's sweetheart, was more than adequate. Jonah Junior was a rollicking success and a rousing good show. —1939---------- 5« 'morrow 1939— flight 97 Qi'L- Starting late in November, the girls' basket ball season lingered on until the middle of March. During this period of four months, there were innumerable banged knees, countless gym class rivalries, a series of bitter feuds between opposing factions, and two major tour- naments. In December the home room basket ball tour- nament was completed, when unruffled room 306 glided through to its usual easy victory. In March the juniors and sophomores tore down the glory of the seniors as they became co-winners in the inter-class tournament. Perhaps the most amazing feature of the sea- son was the fine playing of the sophomore class. We're glad we won't be here when they grow up to be seniors. The juniors were their usual efficient selves; and the seniors, although badly beaten, could at least boast some of the finest individual players on the floor. As a matter of fact, the senior first team, flashing such players as Helen Muller, Ruth Strickert, Margaret Mueller, and the Clarkes, was unbeaten. Unfortunately, however, the other three senior teams won never a game among them. Thus, according to the compli- cated method of scoring by which these things are decided, the sophomores and juniors won 14 points apiece, while the seniors managed to eke out a meager 7 points. Inasmuch as the gym lockers were crowded with Junior Night fishes, sailors, and newsboys during February and early March, the swim- ming teams did not get down to business until after the excitement had died away. However, as winter crept into spring, their prospects were good. The seniors had a strong team with lanet Peter, Jean Davis, and Helen Muller. The juniors boasted Nancy McClave and Lois Mansfield; the sophomores had their Jackie Muelberger. As the winter season closed, the swimming meets not yet having taken place (at the time this copy went to press), the juniors were lead- ing in competition for the banner with 31 points; the sophomores were next with 21 points; and the seniors were close at their heels with 20 points. WJinter Sports —1939 98 1939— S)oph -omore Ljt)ramatic The Sophomore Dramatic Club, sponsored by Miss Grace Alexander, endeavors to give every one who is sincerely interested a part in at least one of the year's productions. Every effort is made to select types of programs which will accomodate the greatest number of stu- dents and will at the same time provide a variety of entertainment. The club's current season opened with ''The Pampered Darling, a comedy typical of the average American home. The cast included Helen Hunter, Mary Louise Hopkins, Mardy Ann Jones, June Kempf, Joan Kieman, Daton Ball, Gordon Condit, Bill Miller, Bob Shuyter, and Bert Spiotta. A Viennese Dance program was presented the first of the new year. Twenty-one sopho- more girls composed the colorful ballet and ensemble. Janet Krauss, a senior, and Gloria Clevely, a junior, originators of the dance routines, gave solos. The club's third program, given in late February, was a modern comedy concerning the psychology of hobbies, Wild Hobby Horses. Gene Cochran, Mary Louise Hopkins, Gert- rude Marsh, Jane Sherman, Jack Hansen, Don Morley, and Jerry Simons participated. The finale for the year was an operetta, Tulip Time in Holland, which featured some seventy-five boys and girls. —1939---gafepfe C |RRC f norrocu ■1939— 99 100 1938 SQUAD 1938 SEASON Columbia 92 ...

For one brief moment after March 21, volley ball comes into promin- ence, and then, too, the swimming meets are held; but while these are in the season, they are not of it. The spring conjures up thoughts of a sun-soaked diamond, with the band practising in the distance and balls rolling under the feet of the drummers. Spring suggests sun-browned tennis courts and cherished backhand drives. For a few short dull weeks in March and April, one struggles through volley ball in the gym— but that is not Spring. We feel that on this one subject we have the right to be sentimental. We feel that now, if ever, we have the right to unleash the poetry latent in our soul. For spring, with a wide blue sky, with band marching, with the thud of wood on leather, with a plane tracing Pepsi Cola in the clouds, with a faint murmer of voices from the tennis courts, is the only time that one can be poetic if one is a girls' sports editor. Then, too, spring is the time of the banquet, and that word—banquet—is always tinted with a suggestion of medieval romance. Of course, our banquets have nothing of the majesty of their forebears, but still they are banquets. Miss Henderson makes a speech and gives out ath- letic awards. Mr. Threlkeld does the same. Miss Henderson's awards are for girls who have earned 100 points by being on teams in the major sports, by being officers of the G. A. A., by spending time on any outside sport in which a girl is interested. Mr. Threlkeld's awards are for girls who have earned 150 points. At the banquet, too, a member of each class makes a speech. Here also the banner is given to the class that made the best showing in inter-class sports. The new officers are installed, and the seniors give up their responsibilities. That is what the banquet is—a sort of shift of burdens, a good-bye to the old seniors, and a welcome to the new ones coming in. So there lies the spring season, spread out before you—baseball, tennis, and the banquet. I regret that this copy had to go to press before the results of spring contests were known. 105 WAKE. UP!

Yet, some- how we aren't as happy as we thought we'd be. As we look back, we realize all that our school has really meant to us. Now we realize what our par- ents meant when they said that we'd be sorry to leave school. Perhaps it is the realization that we are now grown-up people; that the boy and girl of yesterday are gone. Now, more than ever, the inevitable words of our teachers— I'm really doing this for your good —come back to us and we are aware that they were right: everything that they did was for our welfare. It seems only yesterday that we passed through Columbia's portals as lowly sophomores. We were more than a little awestruck by the hustle and bustle of Columbia's corridors. Then and there we made our vow that we'd do something that would make Columbia High School remember our class, and speak of it with pride as the Class of '39. As we became seniors, we dis- covered that it wasn't as easy to make the world sit up and take notice of us as we thought it would be. We didn't set the world afire as much as we had hoped to, but a least we didn't tarnish the name of Columbia, and perhaps we added a little lustre to it. Now we are ready to step out into the world. There are some who say that the world no longer holds any opportunities for young people. Even young people sometimes say this; but we know they're wrong. These people cannot appreciate the opportunities that are presented to them, but we do; we have our youth and are ready for anything. We see a wondrous new world, full of opportunities. No mistake this time—we are really going to set the world afire.
