THE TEA LEAF 95536 PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS or THE East Rutherford High School EAST RUTHERFORD NEW JERSEY The TEA LEAF 934 Page Four FOREWORD E, THE SENIORS, have witnessed with no little pleasure, the passing of our four years in the East Rutherford High At the coming of our last year, we began to fell regrets at the idea of leaving the Alma Mater, until now we have reached the end of our high school life, and must turn to face other fortunes. What these fortunes may be, we can foresee but vaguely, however we leave the school with spirits full of tender memories, and equally full of the desire for combat with whatever may approach. School. When these memories, which are now fresh, grow dimmer, and recollections fade, the TEA LEAF will then manifest its importance. The enjoyment of seeing old faces and recalling former friends will be beyond any definable measure. 934 The TEA LEAF Contents FOREWORD DEDICATION FACULTY CLASSES ORGANIZATIONS LITERARY ATHLETICS I FEATURES HUMOR ADVERTISING INDEX Page Five f 1 The TEA LEAF '934 GEORGE L.

I love to see the moonlight glow A pure white on still purer snow, And that same moon in summer gleams, And sends its rays in silvery beams On ebon waters on the lake, Which footpaths for the fairies make. I love to lie beside some pool, In woodland shadows, deep and cool, And watch the swift perch dart and leap Down in the poolls green heart so deep. I love to hear bird melodies, And linger 'neath the low bent trees To watch the flashing redstart ily, And hear the laughing brook slip by, And then its hidden source I trace To some great granite cliff's hard face, Here is a sight not viewed by all- Nymphs, dancing in a waterfall. Here, ice-bound mountains rise on high To lose themselves in sapphire sky. On summer nights I wander far, And without guiding path or star, I find the merry elves, and stay To watch the spritely pixies play. When leaves are changed to gayer hues, And hot skies have bright, clearer blues, We gypsy far afield, we three, My best friend, my dog jack, with me, We make our beds where e'er we find it. Dust and heat? we never mind it. Campfire, starlight, stories told, Tang of woodsmoke, pine beds hold Our weary bodies safe all night, Until the still dawn brings the light. These things I know-from time to time I try to put them down in rhyme. - -Dorothy jacob! 35 5 f 4 f Z 353 552 ?fXQ Z iwwaf , gaffff f Q Z f! ff Z JS Z f f ly 2? Q jZmgZ22ZZ Zgggyigf ala? QQZZ ?Z ??g?

C laarlotte H err, ,54 p 4 l934 The TEA LEAF 1930 The Senior History 1934 THE doors were swung open and a group of nearly 350 beginners entered, bewilldered as to where to go or what to do. We were the Freshman Class of East Rutherford High School, and showed it. After the first semester was over we began collecting our wits and started our activities. Representa- tives to the Student Council, and Athletic Association were chosen, and before long our freshman term was over and We were elevated to the Sophomore Class. Upon returning as Sophomores, officers were elected with James Clark as the President. Our Sophomore year was an uneventful one, and due to a general lack of interest in sociall activities, there was not even a prom. Almost before we knew it, w'e became Juniors. Then we entered into all the school activities and had two successful social events: The Junior Play and Dance, which was held in December, and the junior Prom in May. Two one act plays were successfully presented, Getting Los Angeles , and Confederates . The junior Prom was one of the nicest events ever held in our school. And now we are Seniors. We have worked eagerly, and waited patiently until we are now at the conclusion of our high school duties and activities. Our only social event during the year was the Senior Play, a mystery drama entitled The Thirteenth Chair , considered the most out- standing ever given in the history of the high school. The class officers for this year, Raymond Hundevadt, Prericlenlg Her- man Prail, Vice P1 E5ld67Zl',' Anna Kaiser, Secffemryg and Elizabeth Sanders, T1feaz5m'e1f,' aided us in making this year the most successful of all. It is with deep regret that we must say l'Au Revoir to the faculty and all connected with the school. We shall always remember East Ruterford High School as the institution that shaped our way to future success.

Its members have participated in many of the school activities and are eager to begin their last year with a record comparable to that of any preceed- ing class. Emil Kullaf was elected Class President. His staff of officers was composed of Emma Moran, Vice-President, Kathryn Pavlovich, Secretary, and James Clark, Treasurer. Miss English again advised the class successfully. Kathryn Pavlovich, Arthur Ornstein, William Nussbaum and Edward Spevak, the representatives of the class in the Student Council, have played prominent parts in the school government. The junior Play offered the class an opportunity to demonstrate its dramatic ability. The Prom, Event of Events, was an unequaled success. With the help of efficient committees, it proved to be enjoyable to all, and an ideal evening served to bring a record crowd. The auditorium was decorated with cherry blossoms and japanese Pagodas. The juniors anticipate the coming year with high hopes and little doubt as to their ability to attain the goal set by former seniors.

Week'ly afternoon dances, and a card party, have been the chief sources of revenue. In accordance with the dilligent planning of the former council, our organization effected the project of home room representation as a means of stimulating a greater interest for the Council of our fellow students. Having attended the conference of School Councils of New jersey, which was held at the junior High School of Bayonne, we returned with many hue ideas which we have assumed in our present council, and which, we hope, will serve our succeeding Council as well.

Started in October, and issued once every two weeks, the newspaper offers a varied program to the eyes of the student body. Its primary purpose, namely that of promoting interest in journalism, has been more than fulfilled, and now articles are offered dealing with the social, and athlletic events in our institution. Literature and Science are well represented by the earnest attempts of the students.

It was inscitutud for the purpose of providing boys with vocational guidance and practical suggestions, preparing them for the business world. Their luncheons are held the first and third Monday of each month with a business meeting at the end of each. Many interesting speakers were present at these various luncheons, among whom were: Mr. Carl Bloecher, who spoke on Insuranceg Mr. McDevitt, who demonstrated and spoke on electricity and Mr Wright of the Herald News, who spoke on newspaper work. Mr. Dierwechter, our Principal, gave an informative talk on the World's Fair at Chicago. These and various other speakers offered interesting topics.

Among the club's many activities were two interesting trips, one scientific, the other social, both were interesting and well attended. Words can hardly express the gratitude owed Mr. Montgomery, faculty adviser, for his untiring faithfulness and for the many interesting lectures, and experiments he presented at the meetings.

The membership was increased and the programs improved. Enter- taining programs were held weelely in assembly. They greatly aided the Glee Club in making their operetta a huge success, by playing between the acts and accompanying some of the musical selections. Without the Orchestra, this affair would have lost a great deal of its color effectiveness. The Orchestra is divided into two parts. The upper class Orchestra, and the Freshman Orchestra. Page Forty-six H UTl'U'Mm'V it The TEA LEAF Storm Far off, I saw a light flash clear, A low dull rumbling met my ear, I turned to see a somber cloud Wrapping the earth in a hazy shroud Then up there sprung a clamy breeze That moaned so wierdly through the trees It seemed a curse as cold as stone Sent straight from a Frigid Zone. The dismal rain was falling free, On highest peak and deepest sea, Piercing thru to nature's heart, Making the very woodland start. But through those blackened clouds there came A rift, and then the sun again Its dazzling rays sent down to earth- Bleak blackness turned to joy and mirth. -Leiter A Snow How beautiful it is to see The snow' upon our old pine tree, The barren branches weighted down, ulenbacb, '34 And at the top a glittering crown of ice. A king in all his stately sheen, Lord of the whitened evergreen. And there beyond the flower bed A rhodoclendron bows its head. Our rose vine, bearing blossoms white, Is softly shining through the night And all the garden seems to be A place of fairie majesty. -Evelyn flfkim Page Forty-eight I934 The TEA LEAF House of Torture TICK-TICK-TICK comes the sound from the large clock, with the illuminated dial and hands, which is hung on the gray wall of the large room. Suddenly I hear stealthy footsteps, mumed by the thick rug that is spread on the floor. Two figures approach as I lie shivering and sweating beneath the huge blankets that have been wrapped around me. But-oh-a sigh of relief passes my lips as the two unknowns continue past me. How thankful I am that they haven't come for me. Someone less fortunate than I has probably been taken and-well, let's not discuss that. There are probably fifty of us in this immense room, lined on each side with sinister looking beds. Each one waits, fearing that he will be the next. What tortures we had suffered, we had been put to unbelievable heat where many had faintedg then we were seized and practically torn apart by huge men who stood waiting at a large table upon which we were thrown. Quite soon after that we were taken into what seemed to be a refrigerator. After staggering through that cold, damp room we were wrapped in stifliing blankets and put into beds. Now we are lying quietly and-there goes a bell. Ah! they are letting us out. At last we are free. I'll never go to another Turkish Bath. -Char. Slaeble, '34-- Evening The roar of the surf on the cooling sand, The eerie call of the gull overhead, The wind through the dunes, and its music bland, The tints of the sun, sinking deep in its bed, The sighing of trees, bidding day Au revoir, The gurgle of brooks, as the blue fades to gray, Are signs of a parting, a seeming Bon Soir, The coming of night and the fading of day. -Raymond Humiemdt, '34 Page Forty-nine The TEA LEAF I934 Faith All day I sit down on the dock And watch each ship that passes. With hope that I may find my jock Among the bustling masses. My jock, you know, is a sailor lad, Who told me years ago When his ship set sail for Trinidad, 'Tll be back for you, dear Flo. I gave my heart to my sailor And he gave his to me, l truly loved my sailor And I'm sure that he loved me. Although my cheeks have lost their bloom And hair, once black, turns gray Before they place me in a tomb My jock will come someday. wHez'en Wrgllk, '34 When God Made Trees Let trees grow here, for the earth is bare, Said the voice of God in thunder. The roots ran deep and the trees were there, And the earth was full of wonder. The white birch leaned, the oak stood straight, The pines pierced the side of the mountain, The fruit trees bowed with their lucious weight, And the elm's limbs sprayed like a fountain. The palm fronds danced o'er the rich moist sod, The beautiful willows waved slowly, So came the trees at the call of God- What tree is less than holy? -Kalbryzz Srlamifll, ,35 Page Fifty 1934 The TEA LEAF !fl A JBPBFIZSC GafdCh A slight breeze whispered through the saki trees along the path and the poppies dipped their fiery heads. The white pagodas reared their graceful towers above the topmost branches of the dwarfed trees. Small white benches dotted the greenward under the sheltering elms. The silvery fountain tinkled. In its crystal bosom was reflected the drooping figure of a young girl colorfully dressed in a printed kimono and scarlet obi. Her shoullders quivered with grief as her tears splashed into the lily pool. Life had been happy until a short week ago when her father had promised her to old Nakashi, the rich silk merchant. The family were in serious financial straits and this seemed the only solution. She had been a busy girl, llearning to sew and to arrange a bowl of Howers tastefully. Daily, she spent two hours at the little shrine of the goddess, Taku, almost hiden from view by the vines and leaves. From her lonely solitude she gazed upon her home. After tomorrow it would no longer be hers. Her room, so beautifully furnished, her garden, and saddest of alll, the shrine of Hope would be left behind forever. She rose and followed the winding path through the saki trees and crossed the bridge spanning the rollicking brook. All nature was in bloom, seemingly mocking her sadness. Reaching the foot of the shrine, she knelt in prayer casting her eyes on the face of the bronze goddess. Oh Mother of Hope-give me strength and courage, she prayed. Do not forget me in this hour of great distress. I need some of your divine power to guide me along the rigid path that I must follow. The sun was much lower when she must have falllen asleep from utter exhaustion and weariness. She was awakened by the noisy clatter of clogs running over the wooden bridge. Mara, cried her mother. Nakashi has died-there will be no marriage tomorrow. Before he passed into the land of Eternal Happiness he stipulated that all his wealth and lovely casdle by the sea are yours, if you will accept them-a gift to his promised bride. The girl sobbed for joy and fainted in her mother's arms. -ivlmfjorie Grijjfitla, '54 The Woodpecker The woodpecker pecked out a little round hole, And made a house in a telephone pole.

Then to come to other shores Decked with stately sycamoresg Softly slip through underbrush, Loudly welcomed by the thrush. Then to hear the laughing spring, And approach the fairy ringg Lie upon the silken grass, Watch the blue birds as they pass. There to sit in bliss for hours, Breathe the fragrance of the flowers Till the sun sinks in the West, When I leave my place of restg V Slowly gliding oler the foam Til I come again back home. -Teresa Millar, '55 Nocturnal Beauty In the deep blue of the Heavens Peeps yon sailing moon so bright Makes the clouds seem frozen snow-drifts, In the cold and silvery light. Little waves steal gently shoreward Whisp'ring soft their evening prayer, And the night windls happy murmur Breathes a great peace everywhere. -Marjorie Grijjfitb, '34 I934 The TEA LEAF Find The Clock RLINE MERCHANT was in a cab rushing to a little pawn shop somewhere A between 14th and 15th streets. Driver, can't you go any faster? she asked anxiously. Glancing down she murmered, Eli Chambers, between 14th and 15th. Yes, that must be it.-Oh hurry, hurry. With a screeching of brakes and a sudden jolt forward, then backward, the cab drew up to the curb, and Arline hopped out. 'iDo you want me to wait, Miss ? Yes, I shan't be long. I may need you to drive me somewhere else. She ran to open the door. Finding it was locked, her eyes wandered across the front of the store. Good! There was a bell before her eyes. She pressed it and an old man came tottering to open it. Are you Eli Chambers ? she asked hurriedly. Yes, yes. What can I do for you? he asked briskly. I am looking for a clock, a certain very old-fashioned one, it has a funny little face, does not keep very good time, and has a weird sort of tickfl W'ell, I'll show you what I have. You know people do not bring clocks to me any more. We do not allow much on them. They walked over to a shelf. There were clocks of every description but not the clock for which Arline was seeking, and she despondently said, No, no, none of these, are they all you have? Yes, ma'am. That is all at present. Thank you for your trouble. Once more she was in the cab. Taking out her purse, and rummaging through several cards, she selected one bearing the address of Samuel johnson, Chambers and River Street, and gave it to the driver. It seemed hours instead of minutes. This time the store was open. Telling the driver to wait, she walked in and rapped loudly on the counter. A man jumped up from behind a big desk and came quickly to see what all the noise was about. Have you any old clocks P asked Arlne anxiously. Yes, we have plenty of clocks. Have you a ticket of any sort? Yes, I have a ticket. Ill tell you how the clock looks. It is a little bronze desk clock. Never kept time at all, and I remember that it had a funny little ticking sound. Sort of weird I shoulld say. Well, you see, my wife took a little clock upstairs, it was brought in by some old gent. I give him a dollar for it. Wait just a second and I'll get it for you. A minute later the old man came down the stairs, a clock in one hand, and a dust rag in the other. Page Fifty-three wi' The TEA LEAF l934 Is this it? Yes! Yes! How much will I have to pay to get it back P Well, I have had it so long, and my wife has been using it for her mantel to cover a little patch in the scarf, you can have it for fifty cents. Sold, said Arline, and counted the change into his hand. She ran out to the waiting cab and gave the driver her home address. Now, what could be the secret of the clock. Arline took off the glass on the front. Nothing there. She took a naillile out of her purse and pried open the back. A little piece of paper tightly wrapped fell into her lap. Opening it quickly she read as follows: April 10, 1928 My Dear Little Arline: Your grand-daddy wondered if you would bother to follow up the pawn ticket. That is why I gave it to a friend of mine to mail to you on your twenty-first birthday. Even though I shall not be with you, I hope that you have a happy birthday. If I only could have lived that much longer I should have liked to see the expression on your face. Remember that your grand-dad loved you. Now for the surprise! Go to the City National Bank and there you will find deposited in your name fifty thousand dollars for you to spend as you see fit. I hope that you will use this money wisely. Lovingly, Grand-daddy Tears trickled down her cheek. 'Qjust like him, the old darling. He must have been reading those cheap mystery stories again. Morning There is a glory in the morning,- A hopefulness that comes with breaking day, As one by one the perfumed flowers open, And one by one the bright stars fade away. Theres a dream, a buoyant doubt, a fleeting vision As the sunbeams filter through the clouds of night, A hope for something new and something better, A stronger faith, that comes with morning light. -Evelyn Atkim, '34 Page Fifty-four AT LE E f, ' ' 6 , I, E fi A :T-xX , Elf X 5 5 L51 IL Z ff ixfh f .

Saturday, September 31st, the Maroon and Gray clad warriors, started on their triumphal march through the season, by handing Rutherford a 6-0 drubbing. This was the first victory in football over our rivals in blue, and it gave the team confidence for their remaining games. The following week a colorful Garfield team succumbed 12-0, but only after a hard tussle. Passaic was our next opponent on the gridiron. The boys from across the river had had hard going up to this stage of the season and the contest, as expected, was a walk-over. The big red team was completely out-classed, 52-0. Fourth on the schedule was Dickinson High, last year's state champ- ions. Our chances were rather slim, as cailculated by the would-be experts . A crushing defeat was their prophecy, but they were upset. The mighty Dickinson giants had met their David. They were vanquished 14-12, by two fine touchdown passes and an automatic safety scored early in the third period. Four class A scalps under our belt, the next week's game with St. Mary's was to be a breather, so everyone thought. A small, gallant St. Mary's squad had different ideas entirely and gave the Garden Spotters their hardest game of the season. They were finally defeated however, 13-6, after leading 6-0, for three periods. Page Fifty-seven The TEA LEAF I 934 Lyndhurst, that perennial jinx, rose to mighty heights against us and and almost shattered our clean slate, but when the final whistle had blown, they were on the short end of an 8-7 verdict. Orange High was the next opponent. With championship recognition in their grasp, the Garden Spotters were not to be denied, as they smothered them 59-O. y Our traditional Turkey Day rival, Hasbrouck Heights, was defeated by the overwhelming 53-0 score. The boys from the heights tried hard and played a good game, but they were completely outclassed. With the regular season drawn to a close, the annual state awards were made. East Rutherford and South River were declared co-champions of New jersey. Neither school was satisfied with this situation so a post- season game was arranged to settle the question of supremacy. The contest was staged on a cold, dreary afternoon, in a heavy snowstorm that turned the gridiron into a sea of mud . Weather conditions hindered the playing of both sides and many fumbles were made during the afternoon. South River emerged victorious 26-6. This season was decidedly the most successful in the history of our school, with eight of the nine games played ending in victories. A total of 183 points were scored, while our opponents chailked up 51 against us. The lettermen on this year's squad are: Captain Schrieber, Captain-elect Ferraro, Yuhasz, Ivanicki, Tofilski, Post, Czaikowski, Schnepf, Gernert, Eigen- raugh, Lowry, Arata, Vink, Hudak. Captain Schrieber and John Yuhasz deserve the hearty congratulations of the student body upon their selection as members of the All-State team for the 1955 season by the leading newspaper critics of the state. Page Fifty-eight I934 The TEA LEAF l Baslcetball Team A VETERAN team reported to Coach johnson at the outset of the 1933-34 basketball season and prospects for a winning record looked bright. Captain Henry Czailcowski led a hard fighting team from his guard post, with Lefty Ivanicky, Edward Smerzenski, and Bill Schaeffer, forwards, john McCleery, and Edward Kooiman, centers, and Stephen Mitura, and 'Moachl' Maziarz, running mates. Fred Zott was an all-around utility man. Despite the good material, the boys of the maroon and gray could not hit a winning stride. Many combinations were tried by Coach johnson, but those that seemed best, soon crumbled. Lady Luck was against us and we finished with five won and nine lost for an average of .555. During the season we won from the Alumni, St. Mary's of Rutherford, twice, john Marshall Law School junior Varsity, and St. Cecelia's of Englewood. ' The boys lost to Rutherford, Passaic, twice, Orange, twice, Lyndhurst, twice, jersey City Prep and St. Cecelia's. VU e dropped a thriller to Rutherford in a state tourney game, 30-27. The boys already mentioned received letters. john McCleery and Edward Smerzenski were elected co-captains for the 1954-35 season.

The nucleus of this year's squad consists of john Yuhasz, Robert Ivanicky, Edward Smer- zinski, Henry Czaikowski and Fred Kooiman, all lettermen from last year's team.

The members of the squad this year were as follows: Fred Sauter, Captaing Richard Miller, Ernest Gentle, Joseph Calderone, Rose Carty, Rose Hartman, Hazel Trautmann, and Sophie Whitoski. Page Sixty-one The TEA LEAF I934 Cross Country THE Cross-Country team under the guidance of Mr. Schultz, faculty adviser, and coach Harry D'Amore, enjoyed its usual successful season, winning hve of the six dual meets scheduled. The season was ushered in by a one-sided victory over Rutherford, 10-49. Eight maroon and gray runners finished before Rutherford placed its fifth man. Paterson Central lost to our harriers by a perfect score 15-50. Irvington and Barringer, the next two meets, were run on successive days. Irvington was vanquished 28-32 and Barringer by an 18-51 count. Our hrst defeat of the season was at the hands of St. Benedict's Prep of Newark, 28-27. It was a close, hard-fought meet and a heart breaker to lose. In the major events of the season the squad placed third, in the State Meet, sixth in the Nationals, and twelfth in the Rensselaer Polytechnic meet at Troy, N. Y. The season closed with a 21-34 victory over Paterson Eastside in a dual meet at their home course. The lettermen were: Captain William Reinhardt, Captain-elect Rus- sell Westdyke, Frank Maguth, Clarence Mathe, Louis Signa, Sherman Baldinger, john Morris, Walter Poloniak, Clarence Gill and Manager Irving Danziger. Page Sixty-twc I934 The TEA LEAF SOCCCI' EAST Rutherford High School launched its 1955 soccer season with a small but hard fighting squad, which coupled with a tight defense and a fast breaking offense produced satisfactory results. Most of the schools we played have a much greater enrollment than ours, but the boys overcame this handicap and finished the season with an average of .500. Captain james Scotty Clark led our forces in battle, and his leadership helped the boys to come through with many a victory. joe Numark, a former soccer star and a graduate of East Rutherford High School, coached the team this year. During the year we defeated Eastern Academy, twiceg and Dickinson and Rutherford. We tied Kearny and Dickinson, and lost to Bayonne, twice 5 and to Kearny and Paterson Central. The following are lettermen: Captain james Clark, Captain-elect Wfalter Opalinski, Kenneth De Vries, Ernest Ozone, George MacDonald, William Peacock, Russell Westdyke, joseph Whitkuss, Michael Opailinski, Stanley Rembich, Malcolm Orr, Fred Di Paolo, joseph Screnock, Eugene Zaleski, Cornelius Vander Vliet, john Kerr, Frank Costa, and Manager Godfrey Cassella. Page Sixty-three I The TEA LEAF l934 Band THE Band must be highly complimented for its fine cooperation and good work during the entire football season. We are sure it played a great part toward our success. Our Band consists of twenty-five boys equipped well. They played much more difhcult music than the usual high-school Bands. At the beginning of each football game the Bandmen in their Maroon and Gray uniforms generously provided by the townspeople, marched across the field, playing the Invader when out of town and Success,' when at home.

Music was furnished by Alfred Cimiluca and his Orchestra of which john Matteo and Joseph Torre are members. Turning to the sport page I read of the forthcoming football battle between the gridmen of Dartgers University, coached by John Yuhasz and the warriors of Harbam College, guided by Robert Ivanicky. Sensing a close battle Ivanicky had his line coaches, John Lowry and Walter Post working overtime on Harbam's forward wall. In the meantime, Yuhasz assisted by his end coach,' Fred Zott, former All-American at Dartgers, payed special attention to- his wingmen, hoping that a pass would bring about Harbam's downfall. I On the opposite page I saw the column Sport Flashes written by Douglas Elliot, noted sports commentator. It read as follows: Frances Linke, contender for the middleweight boxing crown has just signed for a bout with Joseph Lynch, the champ. joseph Gurtowski will probably be the third man in the ring. . Fred Di Palo will lead his Turn Verein team against the San Francisco booters in a game for the soccer championship of America. Alfred Kuebler, of the N. Y. A. C. will attempt to break the worldis record in the 220 yd. breaststroke next Friday night. Cornelius Vandervliet, star guard of the Trenton Moose, basketball team will probably play with the Newark Joe Fays next year. Louis Signa is a sure bet to crack the world's indoor half mile record in the coming indoor track season. The New York Giants have bought third baseman Leonard Porro, second baseman George Clark, and pitcher William Schaefer from the Pitts- burgh Pirates for the sum total of 3S260,000. This is yours truly, Doug Elliot, signing off. And so, like my old classmate I guess I had better sign off too.

Our last year of treasured memories. To start our social calendar, we had the Student Council dance. To the strains of the Silver Moon Orchestra, the participants enjoyed themselves beneath a canopy of yellow and brown harvest streamers. As a result of the able committees, and cooperation of the students, it proved a successful affair. TEA LEAF CARD PARTY XXXITH the support of the students, teachers and Tea Leaf members, the Tea Leaf card party also proved to be a social and financial success. Prizes were given to the high scorers of Bridge, Pinochle, and Bunco. JUNIOR CLASS IN DECEMBER, The New Co-ed , a story of a Southern University, was pre- sented by the junior Class. Under the capable guidance of our junior adviser, Miss English, with the support of Miss Johnston, the cast proved a most able one. Music for dancing was furnished by the Royal Cadets.

The decorations had been arranged very artistically to represent an American Flag. Music for the dance was furnished by the Royal Cadets. The success of this affair proved that prosperity had come around the corner . Page Seventy-one The TEA LEAF '934 Senior Play HE Senior play and dance was given two nights, this year, and in spite -I-of the sub-zero weather at that time it did not fail to bring a record crowd. The play, The Thirteenth Chair , was a very fascinating mystery which kept us in suspense until the very end. It was superbly acted. Special praise should be given to Alma Fitting for her sincere and convincing portrayal of the principle role, that of Madame La Grange, a crystal gazer. She was well assisted by an able cast. Much credit, however, is due to Mr. Schultz, who directed the play. It was through his splendid coaching and untiring efforts that the play proved to be such an unparalleled success. Dancing was enjoyed to the strains of the Royal Cadet Orchestra. I CAST Y . Will Crosby ......... .......... Helen O'Neil - - Mrs. Crosby ...... Roscoe Crosby .... Edward Wales ....

The girls looked most charming in their semi-formal frocks and the boys were handsome as ever. The dance, a friendly one, proved a huge success. Only two more events before vacation. The night of nights, the night of spring revelry-The Junior Prom, when our lads and lassies, charmingly attired, bid farewell to the out-going Seniors. Then graduation-when everyone with a saddened heart says goodbye to everyone else, some only for a time and many for always.

To the School in General: 1. A dancing instructor so that our dance tickets will sell faster. 2. Sound-proof walls-why have Mrs. Conrads' typewriter interrupt Hamlet? 3.

Page Seventy-four A 1934 The TEA LEAF 1932 Sophomore Class l 1936 THE Sophomore Class has had an unlimited amount of support and cooperation this year from it's members, and has come through its second school year with flying colors. The Hop, which is always one of the most eagerly anticipated events in the school year, proved to be a tremendous success, due to the efforts of a capable set of committees under the guidance of Mr. Schultz, faculty adviser. The theme of the hop was Prosperity, and the auditorium was decorated with Blue Eagles and American Flags. The class has also been active in social societies in the school, con- tributing members to the Glee Club, Orchestra, Student Council, and Athletic Association. The Track, Cross Country and Soccer teams had an unusually large amount of Sophomores in their ranks. Class officers were: Michael Wasco --- ............. President George Cole .... .......... V ice Prerident Josephine Kunz -- --- Sefremry mm' Treaiurer 1933 Freshmen Class 1937 THE Freshmen Express has finally emerged from the dark tunnel through which it has been traveling for the past year, and has come out into the light of understanding. The train was stalled once or twice during the first few months, but with the help of it's able engineer, Miss Libby, it wiended its way. , The Class of '37 has come through the trip with many new experiences and happy memories. The conductors who have helped us on our way were efficient and capable.
