Ascending out of the deep chasm of the usual Freshman flippancy, we soon faced our second term as Sophomores. A fine class this was, being the first to introduce the now popular and most successful barn dance, taking the place of the usual hop . Miss De Vries, the faculty adviser, with the aid of our president, Philip De Gregory, saw us through this new ordeal. Scarcely had we chance to let the success of the Sophomore Class settle, when we found ourselves confronted by our Junior term. We started off with a bang, having successfully presented the play, Skidding , under the direction of Miss Edwards. Then came the main social event of the whole school term which everyone looked forward to with grand enthusiasm-the Junior Prom- enade. The set-up was outstanding. Pine trees set behind White picket fences completely surrounded the auditorium. Trellises embodied with roses, flashy benches, twinkling stars and moon, a wishing well, and a most delightful aroma of fresh pine were all included in this million- dollar atmosphere. Mrs. Rogers was our faculty adviser, with Edgar Weber, our class president. Then came our Senior year, a feeling of precedence crept through our veins. We were Cat least we thought We were! the elite of the school. Through strenuous studying and striving, we passed the first semester-successfully. The officers of our class were chosen: Philip De Gregory, presi- dentg Edward La Beur, vice-presidentg Genevieve Kerr, secretary, Henry Opt Hof, treasurer. Then came that-oh, so different-Senior play, Murder in Re- hearsal , filled with suspense and nerve-wracking excitement. Mrs. Phelps, our class adviser, deserved all the credit for her unfaltering coaching of the play which turned out so successfully. Before we realized it, the end of the term was drawing near. Many of us saw ourselves out looking for jobs, others saw themselves study- ing further to reach higher levels, but all of us wished we were Freshmen all over again, joining hands with our friends who were yet to see this day.

Page twenty-eight CLASS PROPHECY I went down to the New York Times, and put this ad in the personal column: Would someone of the graduating class of '37 confer with me, at my home address. The next day I was sitting home when my wife answered a knock at the door. Yes, he's home. Would you like me to tell him you're here ? A feminine voice replied, Yes please do. My wife showed her in. I didn't recognize her at first, but there was something vaguely fa- miliar about her carriage. Hello, Arnold l Hello. I tried to recall who she was, but to no avail. Who are you, I asked. Eadie, surely you remember Edith Cakall, she answered. Edith, time has treated you kindly, said I. We talked. She was now the woman Radio Correspondent for the Herald-Tribune, and she had all her heart desired. She told me she knew where the rest of the gang was, and we were to visit them on the morrow. The next day we went to upper New York and stopped before a factory. We were ushered into the president's office. When he saw me, he exclaimed, Macoroni-head . It was Michael Petrucelli, president and owner of the Bacala and Ravioli Corporation of the United States. I A few moments later We went to Professor Vasco's Physical Edu- cation school, where he and Jane Becton were co-owners. We went two blocks further on the avenue and stopped at Jack Kingsley's Dancing school where Jack, was giving ballet lessons to Betty Smith and Quirino Vito. Then unexpectedly, we walked around the corner, where Vivian Weaver's school of Dramatics was located, Vivian was still the com- munist of old, that is, her hair was still red. We were hungry and all of us stopped in a restaurant and bakery combination on West 40th. It was owned by Kate Van Dender, who had hundreds scattered all over the city. We journeyed to the Yankee Stadium at Edith's request and saw Phil De Gregory race sixty yards to beat the Dodgers 6 to 0. He was help ably by Hen Opt Hof's fine blocking of a punt, and Ed La Beur's fine running and blocking. Then we went to Madison Square Garden, Evliere we saw Eugene Jeep Wacker tally thirteen points for the Original e tics. We then journeyed to the 59th Regimental Armory, where Joseph Baker broke the world record for the half-mile. George Kolb, the soccer number one man, was also present to root for Joseph. We met Doris Mayer, the secretary for the American Advertising Agency of the North American Continent. Page twenty-nine After this we went to the Waldorf-Astoria for dinner and then ce- lebrities came forth. Kate Graf was a lady of the stage, rated highly in Europe. John Cimiluca was the ace saxophone player in Glen Gray's Orchestra. Richard Matteo, a fine linquist, was conferring with John Longnecker, a politician.

Ruth Walmach and Helen Janus were Cartoonists for the Ameri- can, and Genevieve Kerr was an actress playing opposite Bob Taylor. Marilyn Gardner was a tap-dancer in the Ziegfeld Follies, and Viola Hangyal was a scenario writer for Fox Studios. Edgar Weber was the editor of the American Weekly Magazine which was owned by Grover Heinsdorff. After this we drove up-town. Edith, Mike and I were in the first car, and led the procession to 101 Fifth Avenue, Edwin Reardon's huge apartment house. When we were ushered into the pent house, the first to meet us was Wesley Fredricks, the world's greatest librarian. Then we met Wil- liam Ryan, the soda pop magnet. We laughed with Philip Price, own- er of 296 grocery stores, and Robert Milligan, publisher of 32 weekly magazines. Robert Spill was an inventor, and Victor Piazza, the world-famous sit-down striker. Ed Roper was the head of the soccer board, and Frank Giancaspro, the manual training artist. Ernie Metzger was the billiards champion, and Walter Nearpass was a song-writer. Rudolph Dehn was a world famous physicist, and William Winde- kneckt, a European prodigy of the beauty cult. Elwood Rhinehardt played second base for the Boston Bees, and Francis LoPresti played the saxophone for Horace Heidt. Joe Feinstein was a Nov Shmoz Ka Pop cartoonist, and Jerome Du Bester, a world famous card shark . Lilliam Bellmer was the Secretary of State and Alma Clouse, a famous bridge exponent.

Dot Harmata, all around girl athlete. Evelyn Hess was a pie manufacturer, and Agnes Keller was a pickle expert. Martha Jones owned a steam ship corporation, and Mimi Papa was a teacher. Reardon's flat was over-crowded, so we went to Radio City where Margaret Ferment was an orchestra leader. Page thirty Lydia Colombo was a toe dancer, and Dorothy Daum her manager. Doris Gittlebauer was a horse expert, and Elizabeth Janish, an interior decorator. Marge Koegel appeared to be a doctor. Doris LaPenter was the world's best prompter. Sophie Kowal and Millie Kovalski were dress-designers, and Kozleski and LoPresti were journalists. Marie Lowry wrote history books, and Victoria Magash and Charlie Sharpe wrote scenarios in Ho1l.ywood. Mal. Mathe was the owner of fine horse farms, and Clara Paul was a fine lawyer. Marie Wick was a teacher and Jose Oschner, a copy-reader at the New York Times. Dot Slebodnik and Bernice Switek were both plant experts, and Sophie Waypa owned a large chicken farm. Elizabeth Weaver and Elizabeth Wrede were owners of a French perfumery factory. Flo Pandorf was the newest singing sensation and Edna Vietheer owned the station on which she sang. After all this we journeyed downtown, and our car had a crash up: we ran into the Police Commissioner's car, but we avoided a ticket be- cause the officer was Fritz Tomer. But the big treat of my reunion with my old friends was our visit to the Metropolitan Opera House Where we heard Marcella Staelens sing in La Tosca . Hedwig Ober was her manager. I still heard Mar- cella's vibrant voice throbbing in my ears, throbbing still closer to me . . . and then . . . I awoke. I swear that I shall never let a dentist use gas on me again, when I have teeth extracted. GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL!!!

It's great to be alive! to love and live, worry and fretg To see the flow'rs blooming to give their fragrance sweet. To see them die, wither and rot in lonesome sigh. It's great to be alive! to feel winterg to see the springg To Watch the birds just chirp and singg To greet each morn, salute each night, To feel the day, and sun so bright. It's great to be alive! When taste is life, and life is love. When truth is faith in things above. It's great to be alive! to thrill and breathe for freedom's wealth. To work and sweat, and strive in health. ALIVE It's great to be alive! first to be born, impure, then cleaned, Then slowly age, to fear the dawn. For each dawn brings a wrinkled scar, and your eyes sing, How old you are! It's great to be alive to live, to die, to love, to hate, to cry, to sigh, for death to wait, Yet death is peace, all, cease, freedom for and worries no joys enthrall! You're dead, you're gone But now! It's great to be alive!

Catherine Graf '37 VENTRI LOQU ISM Smiley, a tramp, had a warm bed in the hay of a freight car. He had just been paid by a farmer for his help in the harvesting, as had been four other men sharing the car. Smiley was a broken down show- man, once fairly good, but now he was going haywire. He hadn't seen a stage for almost four years except from a seat in the audience. As their private car slowed down, about six other tramps climbed in. They all had stout clubs. Their leader called, Hand over the money . Just as he said it, loud voices came from outside the car. A voice, full of authority, said said, Joe, you take half the men and go down the other side of the track, and I'll take this side. The man called Joe answered, I'll start with this car. Its door is open. At this, the robbers started to run from the car. Calling back threats as they ran towards the fence of the yard, the gang left the tracks. Smiley began to laugh quietly as he pulled soiled clippings from his pocket. They read, The Great Borzi thrills Nelsonville with his feats of magic. His specialty is ventriloquismf' Under them was a picture of Smiley. Jim Connerton OLD SEAMAN'S LAMENT River roll, pushing to the sea- While we stroll, by the lea, Gushing wave, seething in foam, How I crave thee, my home. Ocean cry, calling out, Until I die, I'll hear thy shout, Sinking ships, add to thy woe, On final trips, old sailors go, Till at last, there is a toll, A grim list, for the River Roll. Arnold Stanford '37 Page sixty-five TALE FROM AN ANTIQUE SHOP Having nothing to do one dull afternoon late in November, I strolled through an obscure street in the business section of New York City. As I walked along, watching the crowds hurry by, I chancecl to look down a small alley that branched off the main road. Here was a whole row of ancient, weatherbeaten shops, each with its own scarred, rusty-hinged door and dingy windows. One shop in particular attracted my attention. It was a small an- tique shop with the simple notice, Antiques-Benjamin Barton, Prop. barely visible on the faded sign above the door. I decided to acquaint myself further with the establishment, so I entered the alley and walked up to the door. The door closed behind me, and I felt as though I had been trans- ported backward into the ancient days of knights and ladies, because all around me were shields, suits of armor and other paraphernalia of those bygone days. I was so absorbed in inspecting the various things all around me that I failed to notice the proprietor approach until he was standing right beside me. Upon feeling his presence, I started up and beheld what I would call the most appropriate proprietor for an an- tique shop that I have ever seen. With the exception of his clothes, Ben- jamin Barton might easily have been mistaken for my Lord So-and-So of King James' court. He was a small, thin old man and walked with a slight stoop. His face was thin and wrinkled, with rather sunken eyes and a straggly white beard. In short, every feature bore out the theme of antiquity. I must have stared at him quite rudely, for he asked in an embar- rassed tone, Can I do anything for you, sir? Upon informing him that I had no special purpose in mind, but that I merely wished to learn a bit about his goods, he volunteered to conduct me about and explain the various treasures to me. We must have discussed antiques for about an hour when we came upon the queerest of the odd things that filled the place. It was an oblong wooden box about as large as a coffin and divided off into seven parti- tions. Here the proprietor stopped and asked me if I would like to hear a narrative in connection with the box. I, having motioned acquiescence, he began his tale, his usually dis- mal monotone sounding like a voice from the distant past. Page sixty-six To begin with, he said, this box is one of the most cruel of the ancient torturing devices. It was known as the Seven-Steps-to-Heaven. The story I am about to relate is absolutely true, I have an old scroll upon which a monk wrote it. The story concerns a certain Jonathan Booth, who was born the son of a poor English peasant in the early part of the seventeenth century. Jonathan was a queer boy in that he didn't have the backward tendencies of his kinfolk. With these propensities he soon tired of a life of serf- dom, so he ran away with a travelling monk. The monk consented to tutor him in the various things that he knew, and Jonathan soon had a fair store of knowledge. This, combined with his indomitable spirit, enabled him to gain admission to the king's court, at which place he finally attained a very eminent position. This angered many of the nobles of the court, since they were of noble birth, and this intruder was a serf. With this jealous incentive, they used all possible means to secure Jonathan's conviction on a charge of high treason-a charge much used in getting rid of undesirable peo- ple. As was usual in those times, all such prisoners were either tortured to death or thrown into a dungeon and forgotten. It so happened that the Seven-Steps-to-Heaven was the favorite means of torture at that time, and Jonathan was condemned to it. Jonathan was terrified when he heard of his fate, for it was a most horrible one. He would be placed in the box and partitions would be in- serted. After this, live, half-starved rats would be put in the lowest chamber where they would knaw unmercifully at his feet. The succes- sive partitions would each be removed in turn until he died an indescrib- able death. It wasn't a long time before Jonathan had been sacrificed, as so many others had been, for the foolish gayety, pomp, and splendor of the king's court. As the old man's droning, monotonous voice died away, I heard the muffled sound of a clock striking five. I suddenly remembered an en- gagement, and after purchasing a small piece of Dresden china, I hur- ried back to the comparative brightness of the main road, glad to get out of the musty old shop with its gruesome souvenirs of the semi- barbaric ages. l Rudolph Dehn Page sixty-seven Page sixty-eight THE FOUNTAIN Always in motion, happy and cheery, Always ascending, never aweary, Silvery sprays in the moonlight Shine-glistening gold in the sunlight.

Marilyn Gardner '37 Page sixty-nine A KITTEN'S CAPER ., The World looked very strange to Miss Jean's pet gray kitten from the top of the roof where he was trapped. This was his first escapade off the ground, and the little kitten had not yet learned the art of suc- cessfully maneuvering his small self. His only resort seemed to be to attract the attention of a passer by. A group of small boys, playing nearby, heard the kitten's piteous cry and nobly came to his rescue. In a tongue that was very foreign to the kitten's ears, they discussed the situation from every angle. Finally, they decided that the most capable boy was to climb the tree nearest the roof, using the method by which the kitten had attained his perch. The lad climbed the tree, took the kitten in his awkward childish hands, and started to climb down. The kitten was frightened, and un- gratefully showed his fear by clawing the bloy's hands. After a great deal of struggle on the cat's part, which gravely hindered the descent of the child, they finally reached the ground. The boys surrounded the hero, and, amid a lot of chatter and com- pliments upon the hero's courage, took turns petting the kitten. His identity was learned, and the children promptly proceeded to return the kitten to Miss Jean. During this time, the frightened kitten regarded the kindness of the children with doubt, but upon finding himself in familiar surround- ings, realized that it was sincere kindness. He turned to his rescuer, with wide eyes, and licked his hand with his scratchy dry tongue, con- vincing the lad that his venture was greatly rewarded. Edith Cakall Page seventy ATHLETICS 1937 0 33 Prlgv svzvvizfy-flvo FOOTBALL The outlook at the beginning of the season was dark. Only a few experienced men returned from last year's squad. Others could not play because of ineligibility. Coach Mahon and his assistant, Louis Fittipaldi, had to rebuild an entirely new team. Our first two opponents were Passaic and Rutherford. Both finally became state champions in their class. East Rutherford's green grid- ders bowed to Passaic 27-0, and to Rutherford 29-0. Clifton defeated us in the following game. The East Rutherford players tried hard but lost by the score of 15-0. Unable to cope with Gariield's powerful running attack, East Ruth- erford went down to defeat, trailing the heavily favored Garfield team 20-0. The next game was a thriller. Edward Schmalz blocked a Cranford punt in the first few minutes of play. Petrucelli crashed the line for a score. Cranford tied the score in the second quarter and scored again in the last half. The final score was Cranford 13 East Rutherford 6. The Maroon and Gray's greatly improved forces outplayed both Lyndhurst and St. Mary's but had to be satisfied with tie scores. The scores being 13-13 and 0-0 respectively. A moral victory was gained by holding a strong team from Orange to one touchdown. We lost 6-0. The Thanksgiving Day rivalry with Hasbrouck Heights found East Rutherford at its peak. We outplayed Hasbrouck Heights from the starting whistle and won by the overwhelming score of 32-6. The high lights of the game were Jacob's and De Gregory's long runs combined with Eigenrauch's punts. Those who received their letters were: Captain Phil De Gregory, Captain-elect Dave Jacobs, Eggy Eigenrauch, Fred Freschi, Russel Rice, Henry Opt Hof, Johnny Lampert, Ed Schmalz, Eddie La Beur, Mike Petrucceli, Joe Sondey, Don Jackson, Oscar Benson, Andy Vasco. The prospects look bright for a good team next year. . The returning lettermen are: Dave Jacobs, Eggy Eigenrauch, Fred Freschi, Russel Rice, Johnny Lampert, Ed Schmalz, Joe Sondey, Don Jackson, Oscar Benson. . Page seventy-three CROSS COUNTRY Led by Captain Joe Baker, East Rutherford's harriers went through a surprisingly good season. The steady grind of hard training started against Lodi. We were victorious by the large margin of 20-35. Rutherford was our next victim. The score was 23-32. Three of the strongest cross country teams in this section met in a triangular meet. The contestants were East Rutherford, Passaic, and Kearny. Although We placed third, Joe Baker was the first hill and daler to cross the finish line. Rutherford Won a disputed decision by the slim margin of one point, 28-27.k Our runners ran true to form against Clifton and defeated them 19-36. In addition to these duel meets, we placed ninth in the State meet, eighteenth in the Nationals, and fifteenth at Troy. The lettermen Were: Captain Joe Baker, Co-Captains-elect Chippy Thomas and John Jaeger, John Imhoff, Kenneth Westling, Arthur Brown, Marty Trubeck, Henry Osborne, and Manager Paul Bauman. Page seventy-four SOCCER Coach Moonan's booters successfully survived a schedule of six games, winning three games, tieing two, and losing only one. Our first opponent was Clifton, who proved to be our toughest foe. The score was tied 3-3. The Garden Spotters improved their teamwork in the next games. Three triumphs were registered-over Lodi, 3-13 one over West New York, 2-0, and the other over Lodi, 3-2. A tie game with West New York ended the winning streak. Each team scored one goal. We were less fortunate in the return game with Clifton. The two teams battled for three scoreless periods. Then Clifton scored the only goal which won the game. The lettermen, of whom most are Juniors, are: Captain Ed Roper, Captain-elect Nicholas Krasnogira, Arnold Collumbien, Alfred Kozdeba Stanley Syrek, Henry Dmochowski, Andy Vasco, Gil Schneider, Mathew Jarenezak, Bob Llewellyn, John Baldastini, and Phil Price, Manager. Page seventy-five 'N BASKETBALL A most erratic season began with two well earned victories. We defeated the Alumni by the margin of one point, 25-24. With Captain Joe Hughes playing a bang up brand of basketball, our cagers were vic- torious over Lyndhurst, 29-27. Then came the downfall. Seven straight defeats were registered at the hands of Ridgefield Park, Lodi, Woodrow Wilson, Rutherford, Clif- ton, Garfield and Orange. Our basketeers came out of their slump and conquered a heavily fa- vored Orange team, 29-21. E. R. returned to the winning column at Lyndhurst's expense. The victory was our second over our local rival. The score was 29-17. A Garden Spot season would not be complete without a major up- set. A high riding Garfield team was knocking oft' all its opponents until it met the Maroon and Grey. In a fast and furious overtime period E. R. came out on top, 27-24. The final game was lost at Clifton by the score of 23-35. The lettermen were: Captain-elect Eggy Eigenrauch, Mike 'Pet- rucelli, Eugene Wacker, Wilbur Vosbrinck, Joe Swidrak, Russ Rice, Fred Tomer, Carl Merkel, Andy Vasco and Manager Ed Reardon. Page sf-rmify-six CHEERLEADERS A fine group of high spirited students represented our cheering squad this year. Their likeable characters and love of sports was the reason for the response given by our student body at the football and basketball games. It was these boys and girls who -helped to promote clean sports and good fellowship. Whether our team was winning or losing, there rose a loud, spirited, and loyal cheer which helped our gal- lant athletes. Their ambition and aggressiveness were instrumental in the great improvement of our cheering squad. The following are members of the cheering squad: Captain Gil Schneider, Captain-elect Carol Maguth, Genevieve Kerr, Esther Fattori, Vivian Pareti, Herbert Cutter, Virginia Hubsmith, Ruth Geary, Marion Stapfer, and Joe Feinstein. Page seventy-seven l TENNIS Improving rapidly, East Rutherford will probably have a good ten- nis season. The sport started two years ago under the able tutelage of Coach James Montgomery. With the swinging racquets of Mike Petrucelli and Ernie Mezger, it is without doubt that East Rutherford will be hard to beat. These two players are supported by a veteran team.

After that game Jimmy Mahon seemed well satisfied. The team showed both good batting and fielding strength. The one problem was to develop a few good pitchers. The members of last year's squad that returned for action are Eggy Eigenrauch, Dave Jacobs, Joe Hughes, Elwood Rhinehardt, Fred Tomer and Lefty Carnavale.
