Columbia High School - Mirror Yearbook (Maplewood, NJ)

Text from Pages 1 - 132 of the 1943 volume:

L “= FOREWORD I 9 4 These are days of rapid change. Within this last year of our high school career we have seen our school reorganized from its traditional peace-time pattern for a more direct contribution to the war effort. Our school has, wisely, retained the liberal arts course, with a view to the post-war world: hut it has at the same time rallied its curriculum, methods and facilities to the immediate task of winning the war. In a sense this 1913 Mirror reflects these changes. The very fact that we have our Mirror, and that it pictures our whole school as it exists, is indicative of our respect for our traditions. But the fact that the format has been considerably altered, and the theme emphasis has been placed on patriotic war-time motives, turns our Mirror to the exigencies of the times in which we live and work. Notable among the changes in our school are these: 1. The revised schedule with longer periods and with the later opening of school 2. The valuable war-time courses and the accelerated program 3. The new clubs, pertaining to subjects emphasized by the war 4. The introduction of the High School ictory Corps and its special branches 5. The new maturity, activities and acceptance of responsibility by the students Thus, we feel it timely and fitting that our 1943 Mirror, coining out in this mo- mentous period of our school and national history, should utilize the ic- tory Corps insignia and colors as its theme symbol. COLUMBIA HIGH SCHOOL IV4 Sout 0' 'ange ane MMooJ ar ft a lew (jerSeu DEDICATION Today the United States is at war, and we can see evidences of the struggle all about us. The publishing of the 1943 Mirror, as well as all the other traditional activities we students enjoy at Columbia High School, is being carried out as always, but carried out in an entirely new light. We see these things that we, and those who came before us, have done each year, done once again; but they are now enveloped in the bright hue of patriotic fervor. This is as it should he. No organization founded so completely on the fundamentals of democracy, and extolling above all other things the principle that man has a right to he free, can go on in its narrow peace-time channel when the very privilege that spon- sors it is threatened. Americans have answered the call to arms with their whole heart, knowing that their very lives are threatened; and with this response youth too has come into its share of responsibility and has attacked its job with vigor. We are now an integral part of this war and arc lighting with just as keen an enthusiasm as those older and more experienced than we. We are aware of our responsibilities, not only in the lighting of the war, hut in the shaping of the post-war world which shall be more ours than any one’s. All of us, young and old. must keep adding to tin light so that the good cause may succeed. Much can be learned from considering the relationships the war has established between individuals, groups, and even nations. Many of the emotions and fundamental principles which lay comfortably dormant during peace-time have sprung to the fore and are part of this present struggle. Cooperation is one element which we, with all good Yankee humor, have watched spring up from the ranks of all men. Coupled with this is friendship, and. inevitably, a feeling of good will among men which extends even to nations. Courage has shown itself a true part of the American people, for we have learned to laugh through our tears. An old adage on which, in one way or another, everything American is founded, expresses the force which has brought the inherent virtues in us out in the open, and that is the saying that “Right will conquer in the end.’’ It has been, then, this knowledge of our ultimate success that leads us on the clear, unboasting knowledge of people who know that everything decent in the world would die if they should fail. A happy end must and will he reached, for we light with the very freedom we seek to protect. In view of the fact that there is one word, one hope, one dream, and one hit of true knowledge deep in tin hearts of every American, we think it fitting to dedicate this, our 1943 Mirror, to V let ory for all freedom-loving people.

THE WAR II� AD A AD STAMP DRIVE On April 22, 1943, Columbia High School sat hack and took a deep breath after accomplishing one of the biggest things in her history. This was the War Bond and Stamp Drive, spon- sored hv the Victory Corps in conjunction with the nationwide drive in April to raise thirteen billion dollars for Uncle Sam's war effort. Columbia proved herself ready and capable of doing even more than her prescribed part for this great cause. For the four days of the drive in the school, the halls were filled before and after school with excited purchasers, and competi- tion between the classes gave the drive a great boost. Mr. Gray, representing the faculty, and Sam Joncz, chairman of the Victory Corps, aided by Frank Hannock, chairman of the General Division of the Victory Corps, managed the campaign. The class competition ended with seniors in first place, juniors in second place, and sophomores in last place.

SENIOR HISTORY We, the class of 43, about to graduate from Columbia High School, arc acutely aware of the problems facing us in the world today. Never before in the history of the school has so much responsibility been placed upon the shoulders of its youth. We must fight to preserve the life we have known for almost two decades; and later, in peace- time, we must re-establish and improve this daily pattern. Three years in Columbia has shaped our ideals and standards. Here has begun the preparation for our future work and living. With the hope of aiding or benefiting Columbia and of preserving her tradi- tions, we have strived towards a goal of perfect student activity and government. hat we, as potential citizens, will he able to accomplish later is partially indicated by those things which we have done in our school. — 12 — EMMA JANE BARGER “E. 7 ' 116 Scotland Road, South Orange Hampton High School, Hampton.

To examine the life of a class during three high school years is an extensive undertaking; but certain situations, changes, and persons stand out as meriting places in the class history. Upon entering Columbia in 1940, we found that the Columbian had hecn discontinued. Through the efforts of the sophomore class officers—Cal Carver, Herb Piken. and Dick Yorkcy—and through soph- omore support and assistance, the Columbian resumed publication. For three years everyone has enjoyed his school paper, read its many features with enthusiasm, and given it whole-hearted support. Our first presentation to the school as sophomores was an unusual play, “Perchance to Dream,” given by the Sophomore Dramatic Club. Those who appeared in the play were Jean nn Stirling, Dick Yorkcy. Don Davis, Rex Slauson, Don Pollack, Jackie Dorrance, Tom Sccdorf.

In junior year one of our class was elected president of the Parnassian Society, and this year again received this distinction. Phil Lindeman is the first Thespian in the society’s history ever to achieve this honor. He also had the lead in Parnassian’s Christmas play, “The Doctor of Lonesome Folk.’ To continue with dramatics, we come to Junior Night. In an attempt to escape from the realities of war and yet to bring the war itself home to the people, the class of '13 offered “On the Beam” to an exceedingly receptive audience.

Bohhv Weir was unanimously elected to the first all-state team. Harry Zu .zero and Tommy W illiams received well-deserved honorable men- tion. Incidentally, it is important to note that Tommy is one of the few hoys ever in Columbia capable of being both a good president of Student Council and a fine football player. To arouse a fighting football spirit in the school itself, Diek Novak's Pep Committee successfully planned and carried out Pep Assemblies on the Friday afternoons before home games. 'Flic all-too- few gatherings proved very enjoyable, exciting, noisy, and hilarious. W e hope they will he the predecessors of a Pep-Rally tradition in Columbia.

We would like to express our gratitude to the many students who worked in Helen Lynch’s Eligibility Committee to gather data for the Mirror. To train the nation’s youth and lit them for defending their country has been the problem of education since December Seventh. 1941. Now the most universal change to come over education, with the exception of the inauguration of secondary schools, is the now Victory Corps, effective in Columbia since January. This elass is the first to have the advantage of preliminary training in Pre-Flight Aero- nautics, Radio, Theory of Machines, and many other courses.

This year has brought the school something new besides the Victory Corps. 'Pbc old schedule of assembly programs has been altered beyond recognition. Now each presentation is given twice during the day set aside for assembly, and that day is interchangeable with any of the other four when it is deemed necessary. Therefore we often have Wednesday before and after school but Friday while we are in school. This plan eliminates controversy over the qualities of pro- grams seen by different sections, one of the outstanding but unimportant difficulties existing in former years. For several years the School Council lias promised an open meet- ing to enable students to see bow plans such as those for the assemblies arc made. This year one of the very few open councils was held — 20 — Sophomore Night Cast (3) man (4) JANE MARIE CONNOR Janie 93 Riggs Place, South Orange Dramatic Cluh (2); Glee Club (2. 3) ; Junior Traffic Committee (4); Home Room Social Chair- GLORIA COOPER 4 Henry Place, Maplewood G.

Students came to the meeting and watched the order of business, though for obvious reasons were requested not to take part in the discussion. In the homerooms council meetings are more thoroughly discussed. At the insistence of the council officers ami the faculty, Monday pre-council and Wednesday post-council meetings are scheduled on the bulletin for every homeroom. These have more closely united the homeroom and the student council. An- other improvement appearing this year has been the practice of holding no other meetings on «lavs set aside for school council. In this way the greatest problem of the more active students who are members of committees, clubs, and the council has been solved and the work accomplished is of a finer calibre and vastly more useful. The school year draws to a close and we find that as we approach graduation more and more of the boys arc making plans to enter the — 21 — A KLIN E E.

Such is the poetical expression of the thoughts nearest our hearts as we view tin joyful prospect of long sunny days on the beach, with the tar and oil and coast guard in our hair, the formerly supreme sand walk- ing off with mere honorable mention. Remember the days when the most frightful experience imaginable was to come in close contact with a crew of sand throwing little boys? W hen the idea of stepping in a well hidden but effective glob of tar, which brought us misery from which amputation would he a welcome relief, inspired screams of wild laugh- ter? When the thought of being smacked in the face by a dead, oil soaked, giant horseshoe crab was too ridiculous even to consider? hen the life guard was tall and exciting?

SEMOH PLAY A typical middle class family in a small New Kurland town in 1906 was the background of “All Wilderness,” this year’s senior play. The Millers were an average family, except for Dirk, who was seventeen and in love, and who had picked up some revolutionary ideas from the hooks he had read. Muriel Me Comber’s father found some of the love letters Dick had written to her. and. displeased, forced his daughter to break ofT relations. Hurt and angry. Dick went ofT on a drunken spree which shocked and amazed his family. Kventually Dick and Muriel were reconciled, and Dick came down to earth again. Humor and freshness made the play as much fun to art as to see; and that it was fun to see was evidenced by the enthusiastic response of the audience. — 25 — JOHN DUTTON Jack 327 Hillside Place,South Orange Home Room Chairman 12� : Sophomore Dramatic (Huh (2); Squad Football (2,3) : Fire Committee (2,3,4).

And Betty wasn't the only woman right up there beating the men at their own game. Also in the field of aviation, Margaret Kahrer had made quite a name for herself as the designer of the new ten-ton flipping barn—the fastest thing for sky-minded cattle, guaranteed to keep them all up in the air about nothing. Then there were tennis ehamp Betty Rosen quest and golfer Pat Foley in there mopping up tin males; and Louise Thrclkchl, one of the finest of surgeons; Lois Crehan, managing editor of the Times, and correspondent Flla Barthclow, of her staff, who‘d beaten many a male reporter to a coveted by-line; not to mention competent business woman Jane W atkins. chief executive in one of the country’s largest firms, and sports woman 57 — JAYNE RICE “Janie” 33 Burnett Terrace, Maplewood Commercial Club (2t : Sophomore Dramatic Club 12) ; G.

Those years in greasy coveralls and military uniforms bad certainly earned a new place for the girls. Yes, everything was different; but then, dreams are funny things. You never know what's going to happen next. I saw three women busily uprooting an ancient sign. They seemed to be replacing it with a new one. I got a close up—Lucy, Florence and Mickey .Magliaro! At their feet lay the battered sign they'd been working on—“Entering South Orange,” it said; ami beside them stood a shining new one— “Welcome to Magliaroville”! I guess I’d always wondered when their happy elan would get a majority of the population, and be able to take over. The next thing 1 knew, I was in New York City, being pushed and — 58 — ROBERT L.

Once again pink and green fish swam gaily across the huge rigley sign, and “W ilson, that’s all” was once more pouring from that magic bottle that is forever full. On my left, I noticed the famed haberdashery establishment of R. Yaspan. Inc., supplies of shirts to Wall Street financiers. They’d recently per- formed a much talked of feat in keeping wealthy speculator Richard Spain from losing his. In the distance I could see the old Empire State Building dwarfed by the newly constructed Television center, which had been engineered hv a group of the foremost men in their profession, Dick Woolley, Don Sanderson, Jim Rose. I walked on down the street, past newstands plastered with pic- tures of cover girl Marilyn Mosca, and cartoons by Yorkey.

I passed the new City Hospital designed by the sought-after architect, David Dann, where men in white Clint Wcimaii, Charlie Bippart. and Evan Baker were deep in consultation -something about nurses Helen Browne, Bobbie Harris, Sophie Santine, and Helen Lynch, no doubt—or maybe those cute numbers in the diet kitchen and laboratory—Joan Schweickart and Pat Smith, respectively.

In one corner of the room Barbara Van Winkle and Pat MacMullcn, the unbeatable bridge team, and Maren Nyhagen, the well-known club woman with a finger in more pics than Jack Horner ever dreamed of. were finishing up their knit- ting. while the famed authority on contract, Peg Adams, pondered the weighty question of whether to play the 2 or 3 of clubs.

Next, I remember making my way dazedly to one end of the room to find out why it was jumping around so, and giving out with such solid strains that the windows rattled, and the man upstairs pounded on the floor with his aspirin bottle. I came upon the country’s lead- ing jump band, consisting of old timers T. and J. Dorsey, Glenn Miller, and Harry James, who were trying for a comeback on the trombone, sax, trombone, and trumpet, respectively, which they had made famous, and many other recognized solid senders.

RALPH TRIPP Trapper 410 Lenox Avenue, South Orange v JLP o«Y WAY OF EXPLANATION . . . i Many seniors who were requested to fill in only six of their school ■ activities at Columbia wondered and were often quite indignant about ‘the fact that they were thus limited as to the number of activities they could list. We of the Mirror Staff wish to explain that it was merely the laek of space which made it necessary to set this limit, certainly not any selfish interest of our own. For you who fret, we have this reminder: if what you did in Columbia was in any way out of the ordinary, it will he remembered whether or not it is printed in black and white. W e do believe that credit should he given where it is due, hut we want you, Columbia, to understand what made the restriction necessary.

SOMETHING TO BE PUOIID OF The following letter was addressed to Mr. Threlkeld by tlie Principal of Montclair High School, following tin Coluinhia-Montclair football game: Dear Sir: As one who appreciates good sports 1 want you to know what was said this A.M. to me by Don Fardehnan, a player in yesterday’s game. He said: Mr. Ross, we don't mind losing to a gang like that. 1 asked him just what he meant. He said: “They were swell boys. Every single one of them. Their game was clean from start to finish.” Sincerely, F. R. W. Ross. — 71 — BARBARA VERDICCHIO “Vicki” 292 Wintlirop Terrace, South Orange G. A. A.

TO THE TUNE OF AEEVEVO (The Scholastic Meal takes over the field of sports ami approaches our cheers with a view toward revision for greater literary clarity.) Vociferate, vociferate. Vociferate substantially. And when we vociferate, hoy do we vociferate; And this is what we expostulate: Alcvevo, vivo, vestibule. Approach seven, approach eleven. Approach a dilapidated hovel community. Who can topple Columbia’s immunity? Not a soul, not a soul, quite so; Not a soul, not a soul, quite so. When you are vertical, you are vertical; When you are horizontal, you are horizontal. When you are combatting Columbia You are inverted. Strike them in the cranium; Strike them in the pedal extremities; Columbia Hi|;h School is invincible. — 74 — FINIS We have laid to rest our pencils, paid the fines on all our hooks; W e have said goodbye to tardy bells and professorial looks. Yes, we're leaving, but we’ll remember those good ole’ themes we had to write. And the Tuesdays that were Fridays, yet somehow seemed to end all right. ‘'All. ilderness' and On the Beam”—bow could we forget The two most super productions to hit the old plaee yet! Aching muscles—halt, one, two!—gym every single day. War bonds, scrapdrives, book campaigns we showed them tin Kach night one less subject that we didn't have to do— This Victory Corps a wonderful thing—it changed our schedules. Yes, we've laid aside our pencils, and we're going on our way: But we ll remember Columbia High School as it is today. are facing toward tin future, and we know not what’s in store?

THE VICTORY COUPS The High School Victory Corps was suggested by the Office of Edu- cation in Washington, I). C.. as a means through which the pupils in all the high schools of the land may identify themselves with the war effort. Each school is completely free to work out its own program, and here at Columbia the Victory Corps is administered by a Victory Corps Com- mittee composed of the Principal, the teacher sponsors of the six divisions of the Victory Corps, ami seven pupils. Sophomores can qualify for general membership only, hut juniors and seniors may qualify for one of the five special service divisions, after they have first fulfilled the requirements for the general membership. The Victory Corps started here at Columbia with 343 charter members: 140 in the General Division, 40 in the Sea Service Division; 28 in the Land Service Division; 31 in the Air Service Division: 4 in the Production Service Division; and 100 in tin Community Service Division. — 76 — LILLIAN WORK 460 Ridgewood Road.

X OltSI in ATIOXS OF JOE JUNIOR ' hatever you say about the seniors, you have to admit that they are a class. However, even this is debatable. For your general edification, we will now offer some 400 odd, very odd, words concerning the exact status of the hapless seniors, and sundry other fascinating topics. If they do nothing else, you can rest assured.-' the words will fill up space- and that's what we're paid for. Here is a temporary listing of the several senior categories: 1. Indifferent class 2. Porifcra class (Stop chuckling, Mr. Chase!) 3. “Have you got six cents for an ice cream sandwich?” class 4. Seniors who are too lazy to fill up the Mirror by themselves ami ask us to contribute class 5. Lovers class That should polish off the seniors to a nice, pleasant glow. On the other foot (our hand is a little dirty), we have a highly intelligent specimen, labeled “Joe Junior. Examined carefully under a hand lens, he may he observed to have the usual complement of two arms, two legs, three eyes, and four chins. The poor creature apparently can utter nothing but 'PIME AND A HALF, which he «Iocs, over and over again. Joseph has evidently placed five king- fishes on the nose of a nag whose motto is “Plaste makes waste. Personally, we thought all race horses were named Man O’ W ar, not TIME AND A HALF. But then you never can tell what these juniors will think of next. And you certainly couldn't on March 19 and 20. Joseph (Q for queer) Junior had a nice restful year. He lolled through a relaxing accelerated course, eating his lunch with one hand and waving at Margie with the other. “Yup.“ Joe was quoted one day as he hit emphatically into a sardine sandwich. The sardine seemed to resent this, however. “I bad a right smart year. Nothing like taking five majors t«� invigorate the senses. And that new, peaceful gym course—why, I’m getting muscles all over.” Let us dah Joseph gently and replace him in the test tube marked “Speci- mens— Hot Division. Tell m that poem you wrote: Oh. thi S teas quite a year to watch. II ith many a chuckle and even a laugh; The Junior Class did tickle my rib. With a six-foot pole—and TIME AND A HALF. But don't take our word for it; we’re nobody. You’d like to bear what an authority has to say on the subject, wouldn’t you? Here he is now. Quasi Modo, the little fellow who rings the Tower Bell every hour on the hour— with his head. Step right up. Quasi. — 88 — TIME-AND-A-HALF 'I'liis year's Junior Night was a timely and entertaining production aptly titled, Time-And-A-Half. It was a super colossal story about Holly- wood at war. When the producer. J. B. Stulossal, decides to produce a great I nited Nations epic. Super Screen Pictures send a beautiful but dumb star to work in a defense plant so that she can win some publicity. However, the goofy Geraldine gets in the works and the situation gets very involved. As a recompense. Super Screen invites the head foreman, the only man in the place, and a handsome brute at that, to come to Hollywood to he in the movies. Larry goes, hut lie finds the Hollywood producer un- sympathetic and uninterested in his ideas. So lie and his friends take matters into their own hands and produce their own show. It is a tremen- dous success and the play ends with everyone happily paired off. We will all remember Time-And-A-Half for its varied assortment of catchy tunes and colorful dances. The fantastic impish ways of the Gremlins were very amusing and those Hollywood secretaries—what gla- mour! What personality! The Russian and Spanish routines were vivid and effective, and those defense workers were plenty peppy, too. Chekov's hilarious one-act play, The Proposal, was another out- standing feature of Junior Night; while the antics of the comedy team, Haven and Wright, were corny hut laughable. All in all. Junior Night was a stupendous success. It was ably di- rected hv Mr. Wood; and the dances were staged hv Miss Zahn, Miss Iscnberg and Mrs. Walck. The team-work of the whole east, as well as of the committees working with it, was splendid. So we say a bouquet of war stamps to you, Class of ' LL X S A .

Bcnnct Mur- dock. and the faculty adviser. Mr. Henry Adams. The Lyceum was founded three years ago for the purpose of getting together in informal meetings those students in Columbia High School who are interested in current affairs of state, national, and international magnitude. This year debates, lectures, forums, and open discus- sions were planned b the able program chairman. Rex Slauson, who is also the vice-president. In the annual assembly program, given in early November, the Lyceum presented a debate on the problem of Indian independ- ence.. Rex Slauson and Richard Bilder took opposing views on the matter while Phil Lindcman mediated. At the February meeting Mrs. Alan MacCartby. assemblywoman from Maplewood in the New Jersey State Legislature, gave a timely talk on state elections in 1913. Earlier in the year a very interesting talk was given by Mr. Sterling, bead of the History Department of our high school, on “The Slacker Vote—Good Gov- ernment’s Biggest Enemy. Perhaps the biggest event of the year was the talk by Mr. Spencer Miller. Jr., the President of South Orange, on “New Jersey Govern- ment.” At the midyears, in conformity with the Victory Corps Program, the Lyceum decided to devote its programs primarily to the study and discussion of problems of democracy, the United Nations, post-war problems, and other subjects of a similar nature. Other officers of the dub are Pat Foley, treasurer; ami Bertram Cohn, secretary. MATHEMATICS FOR ARMY AND NAVY CLUB The impetus for the organization of the Mctliematics for Army and Navy Club was the ictory Corps program which sought to promote activities in fields that con- tribute to the war effort. In order to carry out this aim the club was divided into three groups to provide an opportunity for its members to gain further knowledge about the various aspects of mathematics. Under the leadership of Mr. Page, one group studies mathematics of navigation; another group, sponsored by Mr. Hughes, learns the use of fundamental instruments for calcula- tions; the third group, directed by Mr. Jackson, con- centrates on mapping, with emphasis on map reading. The officers are as follows: president. Fred Mitchell; vice-president. Bob Mende; secretary-treasurer, Bob Baynum. METEOROLOGY CLUB This club studies the science of weather ami climate, and the importance of forecasting the weather for mili- tary purposes.

MUSIC BOX CLUB Led by talented President Bea Tremper. the Music Box Club is achieving its purpose, the promotion of an intensified interest and appreciation of fine music. Vice-President Margery Stone, who plans the programs, has featured many outstanding meetings in which there are clever quizzes and stunts. On one occasion the entire group sang a song until a signal was given at which time one member was called upon to continue the tune as soloist. During another program a student com- posed to rhythms and improvised on themes suggested by the group. Throughout the year each member also contributes to the meetings by performing vocally or playing various instruments. In this way every person has an opportunity to display his talents. Aiding Bea and Margery are Secretary Pauline Stewart. Treasurer Fred Mitchell, ami Sponsor Mr. Slicnton. PAN AMERICAN CLUB The purpose of the Spanish Club is to develop among its members a better understanding of South America and its people. In order to promote this aim the club held a typical fiesta which enabled the group to gain a knowledge of South American customs. At other meetings the members learned about Spanish music and drama. During these meetings everyone had a chance to speak Spanish and in this way seek to express himself more fluently in this language. The new Pan-American Club, originally the Spanish Club, will strive to further this feeling of friendship between the Americas under the leadership of Anne Folger, president; Drue Whitney, vice-president: Pauline Stewart, secretary; Anita Riordan, treasurer; and Mr. Pullin, faculty adviser. PARNASSIAN SOCIETY The Parnassian Society, sponsored by Miss Memory, is COLUMBIA CLUBS a dramatic organization composed of one hundred mem- bers. New members showing dramatic interests are selected each fall and spring through competitive try- outs. Regular meetings are held twice each month, and the programs at each meeting are produced and directed by club members. There is also a regular program of dramatic instruction. The plays and musical programs are aided by the several committees within Parnassian. Each member belongs to at least one of these commit- tees and thus contributes directly to the Parnassian productions. Parnassian has been organized for six- teen years and during this time has produced many plays for the student body. This year Parnassian presented The Doctor of Lonesome Folk” in assembly, and “The Merchant of Yonkers” for the general public.

SCHOOL COUNCIL A traditional organization at Columbia, and in many respects the nerve center of our school, is the School Council. It is composed of representatives from all home rooms, and is divided into the standing committees which play so great a part in the government of the school. The Council gives opportunity for the discussion of ideas, the voicing of opinions, the initiation of changes in school government. Now more than ever it is of value as a working example of democratic government, which allows every pupil in the school that share in self- government which he must learn to use wisely in demo- cratic living as a citizen of a free country. PLANE BUILDING AND IDENTIFICATION CLUB One of the newly organized clubs this year is the Model Plane Building and Aircraft Identification Club, sponsored hy Mr. Platt. This club aims to build model planes to contribute to the war effort, to train mem- bers for jobs as civilian defense airplane spotters, and to provide information for those interested in aviation.

In addition, theory of airplanes is arranged for the near future. Boh Williams is chairman; Joe Harmon, vice- chairman; and Ann Terry, secretary. RADIO AND COMMUNICATION CLUB I nder the leadership of President Jack Kruse the newly organized Radio and Communication Club, orig- inally the Kilocycle Club, is offering valuable knowledge in practice code ami radio theory to its members. Often talks on radio theory, accompanied hy demonstrations, are given hy the more advanced students. Such informa- tion has proved of great help to many former members who are now serving as radio operators in the Army, Navy, Marines, and Coast Guard. Girls as well as boys SOPHOMORE DRAMATIC CLUB One of the largest traditional clubs in Columbia, the Sophomore Dramatic Club, with an enrollment of 215, furthers any interest in dramatics evidenced by its mem- bers.

The officers this year are as follows: president. Gladys Ewing; vice-president. Tom Folger; secretary. Rose Perry; treasurer. Boh Taylor. COLUMBIA CLUBS FOOTBALL The year of 1942 43 will he long remembered by students and followers of Columbia High School. A mighty Columbia eleven ehalkcd up a very impressive record on the gridiron, winning all hut one of its games. Now, let's see what made our team tiek. First and foremost was captain “Tex’ Pryor, our fleet-footed halfback, who cornered all-state honors for his sensational play; Boh Weir, rugged end, whose fighting spirit helped no end in achieving many a victory; Artie Smith, whose bullet passes accounted for score upon score; plunging Harry Zuzzuro, who picked up those needed yards; Dick Spain, our magnificent field general; big Ed Polnick, our most capable tackle; and Cal hitchcad, Don Kdsall, Emil Kolin, George Padinsky, Herb Pikcn, Bill Muckc, Austin Smithers, Tommy W illiams, Glenn Bickenhacher, Walt Benn, and Sammy Jones—all of whom helped greatly in giving Columbia one of her best seasons in the past decade. But this glorious season certainly would not have come to pass if it weren't for our excellent coaching staff, headed hv Phil Marvel. Coaches Marvel. Baker, Keen. Mcllottc, Mosher, Mattis, and Brown spent many hours conditioning ami instructing our hoys, and to them belongs much praise for a noteworthy job. Yet a football team does not run on players and coaches alone; it needs fellow's to take eare of the equipment, publicity, tieket sales, and general management. These chores were admirably looked after by John Karl, Don Sanderson, Barry Haviland. George Stratton. Malcolm Vrest, ami Joseph Bow- man. Thanks, hoys, for a swell job. And the rest of you. who cheered our team to victory, have the satisfaction of knowing that our gridiron aggregation was one that you will long he proud of. -108- SCHEDULE Columbia . 19 Columbia 26 Columbia 21 Columbia 24 Columbia 26 Columbia 13 Columbia 13 Columbia 6 Columbia 20 Kearny 0 Plainfield 0 Morristown 0 Orange 0 Westfield 12 Montclair 0 New Brunswick 0 Hast Orange 19 West Orange 6 SEASON’S CHOP Opponents ....... 37 points Columbia ........ 168 points 109 — KASKETKALL Record of the Season Coll! nl ia 20 Rearm 28 Colu ill� iu 10 Summit 32 Colu nhia 38 Orange 17 Colu nhia 33 Aluinni 12 Colu nhia 29 Montclair 40 Coin nhia 24 East Orange .. 34 ('« 1 it nhia 39 Clifford Scott 25 Colu nhia 35 W est Orange 22 Colu nhia 30 Montclair 32 (lolu nhia 11 ()range 28 Coin nhia 35 West Orange 32 Coin nhia 32 Snniinit 11 Colu nhia 34 Kearny 50 Colu nhia 01 Bloomfield 11 Colu nhia 27 East Orange 42 Colu nhia 11 ....

In September we were confronted by three new teachers, and a fourth in February. However, the soccer season got off with a bang and the final results showed a neck-and-neek tie between the seniors and the juniors. The tennis season also got under way and ardent players battled among themselves for berths in the spring tournament. The social side of the G. A. A. was not neglected. The traditional sophomore party was held early in October. After the last soccer game of the year, sponsored by the seniors, a variety show was presented at the annual Christmas party. Reorganization of tin Physical Education Department prevented the annual home room basketball competition, but it couldn't black out basketball completely, and the inter-class games were staged success- fully in March. Volleyball and swimming then occupied the minds of enthusiastic G. A. A.’ers, until spring brought them once more into the open air for the tennis finals and baseball games. 'flic climax of the season is always the awards supper and the assembly in which the banner is presented to the class garnering the most points in the inter-class competition. — Ill — Albert Ha line's Men's Shop, The American Insurance Group, The Art Photo Engraving Co., Inc.
