LIFE Miga inc SB1 111 11 III HS2 Whoever would have thought our parents could look like this! DEDICATION More years in every life— More life in every year!” This is the motto under which our parents re- new their school days in the South Orangc- Maplcwood Adult School. Shakespeare for the housewife seeking culture, photography and gym for the business man wishing relaxation, and forum discussions of current problems conducted by leaders of American thought combine with more formal instruction in science, languages, and philosophy to offer a curriculum extensive enough to meet all tastes. On an October evening in 1933, Dr. Ross Runnels suggested the Adult School during a back-to-school” night at Maplewood Junior High School. The idea spread through the com- munity, and twelve classes, with an attendance of 400, were formed during that first season. Un- der the leadership of Mr. John K. Torbert, its first president, the school was so ably run that in 1936 it had to extend to Columbia High School. Dur- ing the current school year of 1939-40, the school, with Mr. Louis S. Bird as president, has 83 courses, and an enrollment of 4,700. While not the first adult school, ours was one of the pioneers in the movement. We are justly proud of the progressive spirit of our community, which others have emulated. A short time ago the Readers Digest” published a detailed article describing our venture, and, as a result, other communities have opened adult schools. Mr. John K. Torbert, the present director and a past presi- dent of the school, in his book, The Establishment of an Adult School,” gives helpful directions for other towns contemplating similar schools. Although the average school or college with its continually changing population can keep the same courses and professors year after year, the Adult School, with substantially the same student body, must change its curriculum. The need for con- stant changes in the curriculum resulted in the formation of a New Ideas Committee” which has always welcomed suggestions from the citizens of South Orange and Maplewood. About fifty per cent of the courses arc new each year. The citizens have already suggested such courses as Law for the Layman, Everyday Grammar, and Boxing. Several very unusual courses have been instituted by the New Ideas Committee,” includ- ing Aviation, Piloting, and Intelligent Buying. Although one would not think of our community as a place for navigating a boat. Piloting has been successful and well-liked. There is probably no subject of more practical, everyday usefulness than Intelligent Buying. Given by our own Dr. Summers, in a scries of non-tcchnical lectures and discussions concerning materials used in and about the home, it helps people in economizing wisely. Such courses, with the more usual ones of Music Appreciation, Philosophy, and World Politics, have gained the growing interest of our community. Will Durante, General Hugh Johnson, Robert Frost, Vincent Sheean, and other men eminent in varied fields of thought have spoken in the school forum and have contributed to the school’s seven successful years. Many of us in Columbia now wish only to get out of school and stay out. But we shall in time all realize that life without the stimulation of new ideas and new knowledge would not mean very much. It is because this already successful community project is an inspiration and a chal- lenge to all of us that we, the graduating class of Columbia High School, dedicate our yearbook to the Adult School of South Orange and Maple- wood.

PjXc Eight ORDER OF THE BOOK ENIORS JUNIORS SOPHOMORES ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS ADVERTISEMENTS Oh! Columbia thou hast taught us The path that we should tread, By thy rules of pride and honor In our work and play we’re lead. In the years of life’s hard struggle We care not what’s in store. For thy motto is our motto. And our cry, Excelsior!’’ In the years of life before us Our minds shall turn with pride To the memories of our school-days And to thee, our lifelong guide. If success through life should crown All honor shall go back To thee, Columbia High School, And the dear old Red and Black. us Thy traditions, Alma Mater, We shall always strive to guard, And to win thee fame and honor Through our life we shall work hard. ’Tis no matter where we wander Still our love shall never lack For the dear Columbia High School, And the dear old Red and Black. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the rush and bustle of the life which is still ahead of us, we shall doubtlessly often pause to consider and reflect on the many benefits and opportunities which were ours here at Columbia High School. At the present time, although we may not realize the full extent of their value, we can and do appreciate them. We hope that the future will treat us as kindly as the past here in school has done. On one of the days still in the future we shall discover whether or not we have used these advantages wisely. During our Sophomore year, we engaged in many worthwhile activities in Columbia. The Sophomore Dramatic Club, led by Joy Edgerton and Bill McLoughlin, gave many outstanding plays. Chief among them was His First Date,” with Winifred Hulsc and Bob Fungcr. This indeed was an exciting year for us, one of initia- tion in the school that has come to mean so much to us. It was the first of three years which were to make our lives richer in experience and our vision wider in scope. In our Junior year we presented, after weeks of arduous preparation, the result of our united effort—“Jonah Junior.” This was our only project in Columbia on which we all worked together as a class group. The vivacious musicale, filled with sparkling songs and original dances, proved to be more successful than our expectations warranted, and played to a full house for two nights. Among the cast were Bill Barnes, Paul Ames, Eleanor Dorsey, Bill McLoughlin, and Phil Brown. We were fortunate in having in our class a number of students who had definite dramatic ability. For this reason the Class of ’40 has sup- plied the school with a great amount of good entertainment. However, we outstripped our previous efforts in our Senior year with You Can’t Take It with You.” In spite of the fact that Broadway and Hollywood had already produced the play of our choice, the class rallied staunchly behind the project and we reached the pinnacle of our the- atrical success. Lucille Fetherstone, Dick Staigcr, Leonard Harris, Tom Calcerano, and Virginia Higham were outstanding, and, with many others equally as good, presented a thespian effort that was well received and heartily appreciated by every one. Each of the cast presented his part in a manner that brought much favorable comment. For the three years during which we have car- ried the red and black on the fields of sport, we have striven to keep the colors unblemished. The football team completed a highly successful season under co-captains Karl Harr and Russell Gcib, winning eight victories out of nine games, and providing four members for the All-Oranges Team. Co-captain Harr was all-state group 4 end. The team provided many thrilling moments for the crowd, and many anguishing ones for the coaches, by snatching victories out of the opponents’ hands in the last few moments of play. The basketball team was led by Bob Agnew, sole returning letterman. It was further bol- stered by a group of boys who showed marked ability; they carried off a winning season on the courts. The swimming team, ably led by Jack Hastings, and the track squad, met stiffer competition than ever before, and gave a very creditable account of themselves by defeating a large percentage of their foes. This year the Columbian, under the editorship of Bill McLoughlin, Sherman Burling, Buddy Basch, Steve Doyle, and others, lived up to its traditionally high standards and won a ribbon in the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. Under the business management of Harry Rcusch, Phil Marsden, and Bob Miller, it introduced some bene- ficial changes and succeeded in becoming more popular than ever before. Our many clubs and organizations flourished under their fine spirit and excellent management. The Parnassian Society had a wealth of material with which to work and produced many outstand- ing dramas. The Glee Club rendered the school remarkable service in assembly entertainment; the Acappclla Choir was a newly organized society which contributed many fine programs. Among those who distinguished themselves in C. H. S. were our competent school officers, Leonard Noonan, Helen Torbert, Bill Barnes, and Barbara Sherman. Under these leaders a larger and more representative group of students than ever before contributed valuable services in num- erous school activities. These are the material achievements about which we are justly proud, but not vain. But the things which we believe we shall remember long- est are the friendships which we formed here and the instruction we gained from our kindly teachers. It is thus with deep regret that we take our leave; but we look forward to the future with a deter- mination and confidence that we gained through our work and play in Columbia. It is our one ambition that our school may always be as proud of us as we have been of our school.

Item: To the Class of ’41 we leave those qualities of ambition, wittiness, and originality which have helped us to achieve a record that will serve as a model for the Class of ’41 to strive toward, but (we give them fair warning) it can never again be attained. We, the Senior Class, bequeath Howard John- son’s to the jallopied Juniors and Gruning’s to ceux qui ne conduisent pas. (Pardon my sudden accent.) Personal: Item: I. Leonard T. Noonan, leave to my worthy successor a democratic school free from cliques. (Who said, Oh, yeah?”) Item: We, Cliff Farfcl and Sam Barnes, do here- by solemnly bequeath one (1) slightly worn fur coat and one (1) Tommy gun to Bob Grimm and Bill Shambach so that they may faithfully carry on the dizzy doings of the Pep Committee. Item: I, Jean Annett, bequeath my merry laugh to Martha Gearhart with the stipulation that she use it as often as I do. Item: I, Bill (I’m forever blowing bubbles) McLoughlin, leave to Russ Berger my ability to blow those little bits of water-covered air. Item: I, John Towner, turn over to Russ Mountford the care of our cute girl cheer leaders. Item: We, Bob Rader and Chizzy Thayer, re- presenting the Fred A. C., bequeath to Bob Grimm, Bill Colsh, and Co. all the necessary qualifications (including an assortment of black derby hats) to follow in our worthy (?) foot- steps. Item: I, Peggy Love, leave to Dotty Engstrand my ability to have a finger in all extra-curricular activities. Item: I, Buddy Basch, bequeath my (old) Joke File to Mr. Erickson, so that he may replenish his supply of puns. Item: I, Bill Barnes, leave my shy and retiring disposition to Bill (gosh, he’s handsome) Miller. (Every week-end these boys are shy on sleep.) Item: I, Jack Hastings, bequeath my pair of water-wings to Bill Colsh, who really doesn’t need them. Item: I, Betty Broadbent, hereby bequeath to Elsie Mehortcr the privilege of being late to all of her classes in the coming year. Item: I, Paul Sanders, bequeath my polo shirt with the remarkable similiarity to my mother’s flowered curtains to Bill Dunnaway (the only other person who would wear it). Item: I, Will Johns, leave my pair of tie-clip- ping scissors to Jerrie Simons with the request that he use them on his hair soon. Item: I, Jean Yorkcy, bequeath my athletic ability to Betty Trimble. (Attorney’s note: These girls can take care of themselves.) Item: We, Frank Allen, Ted Gross, and Steve Doyle of the Triumvirate, wish to leave our var- ious and versatile abilities to Phil Marsdcn, Richie Allen, and John Kinyon. Item: I, Jack Baer, bequeath to Bob Sluyter my reputation of being a man about women. Item: I, Ginny Vosc, have been wondering what to leave to Lucille Brewster, but, gosh, she’s got everything, too. Item: I, Bob Funger, leave my foghorn voice to Orba Oetjen, who really needs it. (Orba would rather have Bob’s shoulders.)

CLASS OF 1940. Pane Sixty-six SENIOR PLAY Confidentially—it was splendid! We arc re- ferring, incidentally, to the delightful comedy, You Can’t Take It With You,” as presented by the Columbian thespians of 1940. Although many had already seen either the Broadway pro- duction or Hollywood’s interpretation of this play, still, when the final curtain fell on the seniors’ version of the amazing Sycamores, everyone agreed that the acting was all that could be desired and declared that the entire performance was without parallel. With the combination of a well chosen cast and a most amusing script, in addition to Miss Christie Tollefson’s fine direction, it is no wonder that the resulting production was so commendable. As the name suggests, You Can’t Take It With You” has a definite theme, which is simply Grandpa Vanderhof’s philosophy of life—that since one can’t take his money with him, he should make the most of it while living. As the entire Sycamore household have a carefree outlook on life similar to Grandpa’s, they form a very eccen- tric and most entertaining group. It is their idiosyncrasies that make them the lovable char- acters they are. When Alice, the beautiful young daughter of the Sycamores (and the one normal member of the family), falls in love with a rich, young man-about-town, Tony Kirby, things begin hap- pening. There are fireworks of a different sort than those manufactured by Paul and Mr. De Pinna when the snobbish, well-to-do Kirbies ar- rive unexpectedly for dinner and view the Syca- more household at the peak of its outlandishness. That such a variety of talent existed in one senior class seems incredible. Everyone was par- ticularly well-suited to his part. In Lucille Fcatherstonc and Phil Brown, as Alice and Tony, we had the perfect lovers; the couple, Nellie Pryor and Bob Baskerville, were also praiseworthy. We hardly recognized Dick Staiger, the humane Grandpa, for he was really old! Ginnie Higham as the fluttery Pennie was exceptionally realistic, while her husband, Leonard Harris, and Mr. De Pinna (Ted Gross), the fireworks manufacturers, certainly kept things moving. Needless to say, Essie, the ballet dancer, portrayed by Charlotte Hall, was most entertaining, as was Ed the xylo- phone expert (Chizzie Thayer). An unfor- gettable performance was rendered by Tom Cal- cerano, the Russian. Lucille Prior and Paul Ames, the snobbish Kirbies, were also outstanding. 1940 I'dgC S V y-JflTM Pa.qr Slx y-rlgb mm SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Tune in C. H.

With the final warning CRIME DOES NOT PAY booming in your listeners’ cars, there purrs over the wave lengths the voice of our own Uncle Don (Bill Barnes to those in the know) who finds birthday presents under the piano and gum under the desk tops. Dick Barcley, the Crunchy- Wunchy Breakfast Pood magnate, sponsors Bill’s program as well as that of Basch-ful Buddy whose gossip column called Whispers” has to be typed on a soundless typewriter. Rivalling him is Bert Squire whose Squeaks are now heard ’round the world. Our own Voice of Experience, Sidney Foster, will be given the air at 1 A. M. (This program subject to change without notice.) Football history is being made with the adop- tion of Gene Zinns’ brilliant plan for a 12-man team. Steve Doyle, sports editor of the Times, is an enthusiastic booster, and discussions are now being held with the New York Giants, a club which includes Jack Van Ness, Bob Agnew, Bob Mehortcr, Russ Geib, and Joe Nathan (who is a big boy now). Lois Green still turns out regu- larly to watch practice; and in the locker room, Russ Geib tells ace reporter Bill McLoughlin the story of his youth and his touchdown. Bill was the first man to receive word of Jack Has- tings’ spectacular swim across the Channel in 25 seconds, and he recently appeared on Information Please with Karl Harr and Teddy Cohn. Clifton Fadiman promised a return engagement and is seriously considering dropping John Kicran and F. P. A. On the turf, John Day’s pony, Can’t Be Beat,” wins by a nose in the Kentucky Derby. He has consented to accept the presidency of the New York Track, of which Ruth Higgins is secretary. Still running around in circles, Hays Gamble burned up the cinders by a record-mak- ing dash at the Princeton track meet last week. He breezed across the tape and collapsed in the arms of his adoring public. New York society turned out to sec a fashion show being held to decide on costumes for Lennic Harris’ new play starring Lu Featherstone and Phil (Romeo) Brown. The models, Joy Edgerton and Jean Whitney, will wear creations scantily conceived by designer Anne Hall. The Metropolitan Museum of Art is highlight- ing the cartoons of Paul Ames. His work invites a lively discussion of What is Art?” Playing a lone hand, Chizzic Thayer peacefully pitches hay in a small mid-western town of which Elmer Fiery is mayor and Ginny Vosc postmis- tress. While waiting all day for the males to come in, Ginny takes a correspondence course in knitting, given by Bob hunger who raised the sweater industry to its pinnacle of perfection. To while away the Saturday nights between har- vests, Chizzic listens to Barbie Sherman conduct a Beethoven symphony starring Sam Barnes and his down-beat Cliff Farfel and guest soloist Ella Smith. Moving even further west, we sec Greg Flynn, Hollywood’s dramatic surgeon, who under the ex- cellent supervision of Frank Capra hasn’t yet lost a patient. Chris Brannigan and Peggy Love are also basking in the bright light of the marquee, while Charlotte (You Can’t Take It With You) Flail is replacing Zorina in a forthcoming million- dollar supercolossal production. At Wellesley, Acting-Dean Helen Torbcrt has added to a distinguished faculty Professor Lionel Levey, who will teach chemistry to Chibby Gray, Betty Duryea, Marge Schwarz, and Ann Thur- man. Prof, of Physical Education, Jean Nason, insists that academic subjects must not interfere with athletic scholarship, and at Harvard, Jean Garncau has been appointed Permanent Chaperone at one of the dorms. Pat Wander and Jean Yorkcy, coaches of the soccer team at Vassar, read letters between halves from Ginny Gibbons who is in France. Ginny writes that she adores France, having finally found a place where her big sisters cannot appropriate her skirts and boy friends. She also mentions that Ambassador John Mason arrived in Paris last week to collect the war debt. Fred Dutton exploded the shot that catapulted Captain Bruce Hopping and Douglas Corrigan to Mars in their Flying Comet. With a flash of dust and a speed of light, Lou Blendermann’s finally acquired new super charger zooms to the flying field with a staff of honorary passengers— Alicia Eggcr, Ted Griffinger, Dick McKeon and Orson Welles, who arc accompanying Hopping on the flight. Teddy Barlow could not be in- cluded as she has not yet completed her set of reducing exercises. A sweeping change in trade and industrial prac- tices is promised by Ted Gross, head of the Fed- eral Trade Commission. Two chickens in every garage,” called the safeguard against inflation, is cheered at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Broadbent, Doubleday, Doran Corporation. Betty Broadbent, head of that publishing firm, wins new laurels by refusing to publish school text books. Let them go to the mqvics” is her slogan for educating the young. x Pjrc Sixty-nine THOUGHTS ON LEAVING SCHOOL Seniorita Rhoda Scher It is incredible that three years have fled by so swiftly. How could a clock that took an eternity to tick away a minute in French class have whizzed away every hour of six semesters so soon? Time must have done all its ruthless speeding during those periods in which we had a long test to complete, and on those mornings we thought we could arrange a new hair-do and still get to school on time, and during our delicious, evaporating vacations. Columbia’s clocks were unfair. How many of those moments we thought we couldn’t live through! We were scared lest someone observe us whispering in study or passing notes that asked questions about tests we’d die if we didn’t pass; but we were even more scared lest no one observe us as we sauntered through the halls in a new frock or sweater, essaying to appear modest. It was horrible to have to give an oral talk in English, but still more horrible to have to slip into Chemistry with our hair straggling like sea weed washed up on the shores of our heads. But now that we arc developing into alumnae, a melange of living memories of worries, ordeals, fueds, disappointments, embar- rassments, and terrors makes us a little sorry to leave Columbia. THOUGHTS ON LEAVING SCHOOL Senior Bill McLoughlin Most of us expect to go to college or into business—but even as the well-laid plans of mice, ours may go astray, and we ourselves to the dogs. But perish the thought! About my brain”: Is this the purpose for which our parents worked and slaved (doing our homework) to give us a good education? We must think of higher things, of ships and shoes and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings. Speaking of Kings, we wonder whether President Roosevelt will get a third term. And speaking about Presidents, we also wonder how many of us have been told that if we ate our spinach, dried the dishes, shoveled the walks, washed the car, and a million and one other things—then we may become President of this great coun- try. Gosh! Someone has got to be the President twenty years from now! Why could it not be one of us? For an alphabetical list, in any language, of the 7,236,4 59 rea- sons why not, consult Mr. Talbot in Room 222A, any afternoon. But our foremost thought on graduating is voiced in a famous saying of Confucius: He who works like a son-of-a-gun will never be fired.” With these few precepts in mind, remember that—though it is also a type of shredded wood (not wheat, with which it compares favorably)—our School motto is: Excelsior!” Page Seventy JUNIOR CLASS COUNCIL Bill Dunaway 144 Alice Wooley .......... 149 Wayne Blessing .........................

O What’s Doing?” was a delightful farce de- picting life at Mrs. Wedgcwater’s School for Progressive Girls. It was a fine all-around pro- duction—many think one of the finest dramatic productions of its kind that we have had in Columbia. The plot, devised by the Pre-Junior Night Committee, was timely and amusing. Mrs. Wedgewater, an impractical dreamer, tries to maintain a pleasure school without books, pro- fessors, or classrooms. When compelled by the state authorities to hire teachers, she employs some hoboes found lingering near the campus. With this staff, campus life is even more ridicu- lous than before. Between indescribable classes, the college board examiners, and secret evening study sessions, things arc perpetually whirling. The diverse combination of characters in- volved added immeasurably to the show’s suc- cess. Foremost was the loquacious and excitable Mrs. Wedgewater, with her effervescent attitude toward everything, who may have fluttered—but never from our memories. Virginia Jacket fitted that role perfectly. Professor (call me Slugger) Ball, and those weird hands, was really as atmos- pheric as his history class. Jerry Simons as Duke Barogue was an artist in more ways than one. Well, all right!”—that’s our impression of Susan and Mike, playeiLby Gertrude Marsh Bob Sluytcr. ° ''A Cleverly interwoven wiTh he plot vyfcrc sev-N eral unique dances which were directed by Miss Elizabeth Walker and Miss Helen Darrow. First, the girls’ many activities were represented in very ingenious sports dance. Then, to Strauss s Tales from the Vienna Woods,” they danced an impressive waltz, vivified by authentic cos- tumes of the period. When Duke Barogue and the Surrealist dancers presented The Romance of the Great American Onion Peel,” an encore was inevitable. An amazing study in Math, followed the colorful Eskimo Dance. Last but not least were the Jitterbuggers, Jane Congle- ton and Jack Hansen. The two orchestras, the glee clubs, the a capella choir, and several soloists contributed vitally to the background of the performance. Old and new selections, including classical and swing, thrilled the hearts of many music lovers. Sally Drypolcher, Helen Pollock, and Bud Reeves rendered a hilarious version of Edna St. Vincent Millay’s Two Slatterns and a King.” This was directed by Stanley Wood, who supervised all the acting. Indeed, Junior Night was a complete success! Even we seniors will admit that. Pii.i’r Srivw v-W fA SOPHOMORE COUNCIL REPRESENTATIVES Norma Bartman .......................................

Membership is not based upon try-outs, but rather upon the sincere interest evidenced by the individuals who desire to become members. The club is proud that it serves as a training ground and talent-finder for the dramatic organi- zations of the junior and senior year. Many of the old club grads,” so to speak, find important roles in Junior Night and in the Senior Play. This year the schedule of the club activities has been a particularly large one. Three extra club meetings were scheduled to meet the require- ments of the student directors who selected, cast, directed, and staged nine plays in club meetings. In addition to the regular club programs, four assembly programs were presented by the club which included two one-act plays, a dance pro- gram, and a musical comedy. This year, for the first time, a small group of about twenty members organized a new club branch. Calling themselves the drama-apprccia- Among the plays on this year’s roster were: Wild Hobby-Horses,” The Wedding,” El- mer,” Circumstances Alter Cases,” Sub- merged,” Nine Lives of Emily,” A Play in the Japanese Manner,” Copy,” The Castle of Mr. Simpson,” Eternally Yours,” Curse You, Jack Dalton,” The Inn of Return,” scenes from Huckleberry Finn,” a musical com- edy, and scenes from 1938 Broadway hits. In addition, the club was very fortunate in obtain- ing original radio scripts from the United Art- ists Studios. These were used to present two other programs, Captains Courageous,” and Wuthcring Heights.” The club officers this year are: President, Dick Debcvoise; Vice-President, Marlin Macken- zie; Secretary, Dot Lawrence; Treasurer, Dick Marsh; Ass’t Treasurer, Bruce Stewart; Faculty Adviser, Miss Alexander.

Not content with laurels earned, our newspaper, continually striving to improve itself, has become a better and more popular paper than ever. This year The Columbian inaugurated a board of home room collectors who assumed the re- sponsibility not only of selling subscriptions to home room members, but who contributed copy about home room affairs with the result that more personal angles of school activity were covered. Another new policy was the unification of the two staffs—the business staff, headed by Harry Rcusch, and the editorial staff, headed by Bill McLoughlin. To increase the popular appeal of the paper a questionnaire was distributed to ascertain the favorite columns, to learn what students liked best, to determine whether news about colleges and other high schools should be included. From the results of this inquiry, the staff altered or increased its assignments to conform with the wishes expressed by the student body. One of the new fields developed as a result of this canvass was that of candid photography. This was handled by Jim Barthelow and his staff of four sophomore boys, who deserve mention for their interesting snapshots. Another addition was the inclusion of car- toons. Marvin Lane and his staff of six met once a week to receive assignments, discuss their drawings, and to learn more of the theory of caricature. Every week this enthusiastic group, with the help of Miss Wheeler, their art adviser, selected the cartoon which most adequately con- veyed the desirable idea for publication. If you wanted to read a Columbian this year, you had to subscribe, for Mr. Gray set up a locker delivery system whereby the papers were placed in the lockers during the seventh period. The results of this practice were, as hoped— more subscriptions. Students this year had the opportunity of submitting their own copy to the Columbian by leaving it in the Columbian box on the first floor. Any suggestions or articles thus received were always given careful attention by the staff. The sophomore staff again attended a train- ing class in journalism, after which it was per- mitted to join the main Columbian editorial staff. This training class has been conducted for the past three years by Miss Florence Lockerby, the paper’s literary adviser. By this means the sophomores had an equal opportunity of becom- ing the backbone of the Columbian for future years. Others on the editorial and business staffs are as follows: Phil Marsden, Circulation Manager; Walter Klein, News Editor; Buddy Basch, Fea- ture Editor; Sherman Burling, Make-up Editor; Ellen Riley, Copy Editor. Mr. Henry C. Gray is the business adviser. The assistant editors in- cluded Joan Kiernan, Virginia Limner, Dick Davis, Beryl Jeffries, June Abelson, and Quinn McLoughlin. 1940 Pogf Eight y-eigbf THE PARNASSIAN SOCIETY Among the oldest of Columbia’s extra-cur- ricular organizations is the Parnassian Society, a Dramatic club which made its debut in the fall of 1926. During these past thirteen years the aims of this society have been to stimulate interest in the legitimate stage and to afford to all of our would-be Thespians an opportunity to give vent to their dramatic desires. Parnassian, however, is not limited only to those who take pleasure in acting, but is open to people interested in every phase of the theatre, from scene design to make-up. From the one hundred members a Council is chosen of two Seniors, two Juniors, and one Sophomore in addition to the officers of the soci- ety. This body takes care of minor problems which arise. Major issues arc decided by the vote of the entire organization. The officers arc elected every spring and take office in the fol- lowing September. Officiating for 1940 are Hill McLoughlin as president, Dumond Chalkcr as vice- president, Winifred Hulsc and Charlie Thayer as secretary and treasurer respectively, and Nancy Wiley as the Program Chairman. The Society holds two theatre parties a year. The object of these parties is to bring the mem- bers into closer contact with contemporary stage personalities and to familiarize them with the professional theatre, as well as to keep them in- formed as to what goes on along the Great White Way. QUALITY PLUS Terrible, awful, simply too, too dreadful!” groaned the little man who wasn't thirct upon realizing what a marvelous night’s entertainment he missed by not attending Parnassian’s annual public production, Quality Street.” The poor chap was wide-eyed at our enthusias- tic reports of the comedy’s success. Speechless, he listened to our reminiscences of the humorous happenings of Quality Street” and its quaint, straight-laced society. The Parnassian rendition of Barrie’s captivat- ing script was remarkable,” we assured our friend, while relating some choice episodes of the mem- orable Blue and White room. The Throsscl sisters, beloved Susan and charm- ing Phoebe, made an unforgettable impression; so the narrowness of their old maid neighbors, the effrontery of Patty, and the genuineness of the gallant Valentine Brown were other lasting remembrances. Our friend, hearing us so extol the performance, looked as though he’d burst into tears any moment. Unhcedingly we continued our discussion. We agreed that Ann Davis, as the heroine, displayed great versatility and dramatic prowess, and that the dashing V. B. (alias Bill McLoughlin) gave an admirable performance. We were praising the splendid supporting cast, Miss Memory, and other Club members re- sponsible for the show’s triumph, when our little friend cried, Stop!” and stumbled away mutter- ing, Oh, why am I never anywhere?” IRI 1940 PtiRc Eighty-nine FRENCH CLUB PRESIDENT Helen Torbert VICE-PRESIDENT I lenry Niemitz SECRETARY Barbara Sherman TREASURER Bob Miller GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT Jean Yorkey VICE-PRESIDENT Lucille Prior SECRETARY Charlotte Hall TREASURER Jane Congleton MUSIC BOX PRESIDENT Louise Reiehl VICE-PRESIDENT Paul Nagel SECRETARY Jean MacKinnon TREASURER James Lawrence TABLE TENNIS CLUB PRESIDENT Henry Hedden VICE-PRESIDENT Jean Nason SECRETARY Irene Pustilnik TREASURER Morty Meyer LATIN CLUB PRESIDENT Austin Hooey VICE-PRESIDENT Alice Barradale SECRETARY Arba Oetjen TREASURER Helen Torbert THE LYCEUM PRESIDENT Gordon Condit VICE-PRESIDENT Jane Oberg SECR ETARY-TRI ASURER Johnston Livingston COMMERCIAL CLUB PRESIDENT Dot Heck VICE-PRESIDENT Hazel Hecr SECRETARY Doris Smith TREASURER Muriel Langnccker CINEMA CLUB PRESIDENT Frances Van Kcurcn VICE-PRESIDENT Paul Nagel SECRETARY Elaine Kempf TREASURER Walter Klein BOYS' ART CLUB CAMERA CLUB PRESIDENT Paul Ames VICE-PRESIDENT Jerry Simion sec: r ET A R Y-T R E ASUR ER Bob Pesant PRESIDENT Deward Seel VICE-PRESIDENT Melvin Kaye Pj£c Ninety FOOTBALL PHILIP H.

The Cougars lived up to these advanced predictions by overpowering a strong Kearny team 13-0. The Marvelmen, led by co-captains Harr and Geib, continued to show power by scoring early to whip a plucky Plainfield combine 19-0. The next week the Gems easily took Morristown by a 26-7 count. The Red and Black then gave rise to the say- ing that it was a ’'last quarter” team by over- coming a strong Orange squad 8-6 in the final minutes, and, after trailing Westfield 7-6 to almost the end, eking out a last minute victory by a score of 13-7. A Van Ness to Agnew to Blazo forward-lateral pass was good for eighty yards and a touchdown to pull the Orange game out of the fire, a previous safety being the mar- gin of victory. A kick blocked by Harr and recovered in the end zone by Agnew decided the issue at Plainfield. Then the Marvelmen had another close call, this time against the Montclair Mounties. On the short end of a 14-7 score, with only three minutes of play left, the Cougars tied the score by virtue of the same forward-lateral combina- tion which won the Orange fracas. Then, with a tie score of 14-14, a Van Ness to Damasco R pass put the ball deep in Montclair territory from where another pass, Van Ness to Harr, put the ball over the goal line for a 21-14 victory. The Cougars next traveled to New Brunswick, where they nosed out the home team 2-0 by means of a fourth-period safety. A Columbia first down inside the Zebra five-yard line was nullified because of the presence of twelve Columbia players on the field. On November eighteenth the Hast Orange Panthers invaded Underhill Field to deal the Cougars their one and only defeat of the season in a game which settled the championship of the Oranges and Essex County and had a bearing on the final standing in the state. With Whitney and Bennett scoring three touchdowns in the first eight minutes, the East Orange team played to protect its lead, although it threatened throughout the first half. The Red and Black began to click in the last half, but the most they could get were two safeties, scored when East Orange was kicking from deep in its own territory after having stopped two Columbia thrusts. The final score was East Orange over Columbia 19-4. Bouncing back from their only defeat, the Cougars took the measure of the West Orange Cowboys by a 12-0 count in the annual Thanks- giving Day classic. 1940 Pdge Ninety-two STATISTICS ON LAST ELEVEN YEARS SEASON WON LOST TIED 29-30 6 2 0 30-31 . 7 2 0 31-32 4 2 1 32-33 3 5 0 33-34 5 2 2 34-35 3 4 2 35-36 5 2 2 36-37 6 0 3 37-38 8 0 1 38-39 6 3 0 39-40 8 1 0 Total .... 61 23 11 HARR.

Under the leadership of iptain Hob Agncw, the Cougars ran up a string of five straight victories before bowing to Orange in a thrilling encounter. After dropping another game to Montclair, the Gems rallied to conquer such strong foes as East Orange, Chatham, and West Orange. After being again beaten by Montclair and Orange, the team rose to defeat a mighty New Brunswick combine, judged as one of the best in the state. The Gems then hit a three-game slump to rally by a fine victory over Millburn, Little Five Conference champs. However, the final game was won by a powerful East Orange squad. II.

A. A. program got oil to an enthusiastic start. The fall tournament finished with semi-finalists Jean Nason, Dory Staldcr, and Jean Yorkey as likely candidates for the spring play-offs. While the racquet swingers were chasing white spheres about the courts, our athletic, fun-loving officers—President Jean Yorkey and Vice-president Lucille Prior—were launching plans for the initiation of the Sophs into the G. A. A. The Gay Nineties party which evolved proved to be one of the merriest inspirations the G. A. A. has yet experienced. Seven Sophomore (G. A. A.) council members (Peggy Ames, Dolly Hartman, Dorrit Hrask, Pat Campbell, Jean Crompton, Lee Morton, Margy Torbert) having been put through their paces. Miss Arabella Mincer, alias Ann Davis, called her gay nineties school of select young ladies to order. They sang sweetly, exercised vigorously by wiggling all ten fingers at once, and ended by giving a stellar performance of that melodrama, Love Will Win.” Having been properly initiated into the G. A. A. program, the sophomores came out in full force for soccer and gave the juniors and SENIORS some pretty stiff competition. Warm, muggy weather made the first few practices a bit slow. Nevertheless, competition was keen and black and blue shins were numerous; and Miss Allen, Miss Darrow, and Miss Walker had a difficult time selecting the first, second, three A, and three B teams. The Class of ’40 shaped up as the probable winners of the soccer tournament. The senior first team played a well-knit game. Captain Louise Rcichl and Lucy Long leading a fast offense, and Lou Prior and Jean Yorkey leading a fast defense. Hut the excellent playing was of no avail against the equally well-organized junior first team. As the afternoon shadows began to lengthen, the time whistle blew on a 0-0 tic! The second teams played an equally close game with the final score 2-0. And then every one—guests and G. A. A. members alike—proceeded into the gym for hot cocoa and sandwiches. The soccer Tea” was a new event in the G. A. A. program this year, and it proved so successful as to become a permanent feature. Originally, the purpose of the tea was to provide for those girls who had not made the team an active part in the soc- cer program. Hut the tea, sponsored by the seniors, also proved to be a record-breaking crowd drawer. A similar basketball Cocoa” will be sponsored by the juniors, and a baseball lemon- ade party by the lowly sophomores. The Tumbling and Modern Dance Clubs were further innovations for those who do not glory in black and blue knees and shins. The former faded out because of a lack of head- standers and cart-wheelers, and a discouraging day-after stiffness experienced by those who tried out. Hut the Modern Dance Club proved to be one of the most popular divisions of the C'm on In! Soc'er. Joan! Paxe Nincty-eixbt G. A. A. About one hundred ten girls contorted themselves at try-outs, hoping against hope that they would appear graceful to the eyes of the almighty sponsors, Miss Allen and Miss Harrow. The fortunate girls who were finally selected stated that they had organized, first, to assist whenever possible in assembly programs; second, to prepare their own dancing exhibitions. Ex- pressively graceful Louise Rcichl was elected chairman. Prac- tice was immediately started on a series of dances from all nations to be presented at the Christmas Assembly. Climaxed by Ann Davis’ dramatic beggar-dance, the resulting program was so colorfully compelling that the girls were asked to present it again before the Home and School Association. Having proved their mettle, the girls were then asked to supply four dancers for a play presented by the French Club. Columbia’s Modern Dance Club also made a number of contacts with neighboring dance clubs. On March 16 the Westfield Dance Club entertained about twenty-five local dance clubs at a dance symposium spon- sored by New York University. The interest and enthusiasm with which the Dance Club has been received more than warrants its continuance as an outstanding feature of next year’s G. A. A. program. On November 20 the first basket of the 1940 basketball season was shot. About forty-seven of the forty-nine home rooms entered the tournament, giving almost all the girls in the school an opportunity to participate in this organized sport. Represented in the semi-finals were two sophomore home rooms (202 and 310), one junior home room (207), and one senior home room (213). 207 and 202 emerged from the semi-finals and at the exciting play-off Jane Conglcton’s 207 team slid in to a hard-earned victory. The usual G. A. A. Christmas dance was cancelled this year, and in its place we had a Winter Sports Party with inspiring skiing movies, Santa Claus (Irene Linquist in a pillow), a fashion show, and ice cream and cookies served by Lucy Long’s charming waitress group. Returning reluctantly from the skiing, skating, and coasting of Christmas vacation, the girls threw themselves with a will into basketball. 3-A and 3-B teams played first, with the seniors winning all games. Under the captaincy of Lucy Long, the senior first team looked like a winner, almost assuring the seniors of the banner—but time alone would reveal the outcome, which was necessarily unknown at the time of this writing. On March twentieth, at 1:42, Spring officially arrived, and with it came thoughts of violets, jump-rope, the catcher’s mit, and the pitcher’s mound, but for one brief instant before we step upon the diamond, the G. A. A. will pause for an intensive contest with the volleyball. . . . And of course with Spring comes the swimming team with its damp locks and powder fights. This year inter-class competition is plan- ned in racing and diving. As practice has not begun, this year’s stellar performers in speed races are not yet determined. Too often the glory of co-ordintcd aquatic mo- tion is lost in the scramble to prepare for the Spring Awards Banquet. At this affair, the last gathering of the year, Miss Henderson and Mr. Threlkeld will award letters to those girls who have earned them. The Banquet will climax what, to me, has been a perfect G. A. A. season. Swing It! Page Ninety-nine Under the leadership of Captain Bob Asmuth, last year’s tennis team, with many juniors playing, closed its season with a hard-luck record of three victories and six defeats. Winning two matches from Wcequahic and one from Bloomfield, the Wenkermen lost close matches to Morristown, Barringer, and Plainfield. 1939 1940 Columbia Of potl cut Dale Op pone ill 5 Wcequahic 0 May 6 West Side 0 East Orange 5 May 8 Asbury Park 3 Bloomfield 2 May 10 Bloomfield 4 Wcequahic 1 ■ Jj May 22 Morristown 2 1 Morristown West Orange 3 1 4 I May 24 Barringer 2 Barringer jj May 29 •| Tentative 5| East Orange 0 East Orange 5 Wcequahic 2 Plainfield 1 Tentative 40 Plainfield ; • One 11 twilml INDEX OF ADVERTISERS Becker Gift Shop, The .....
