The stage is set and we find ourselves in the great theater of life. The training we have received behind this stage has prepared us for the great day when we find all the world looking upon us for the acts and performances of tomorrow.

In our mind's eye we saw ourselves coming from all parts of the globe to New York, the city of dreams. Our hostess aboard the world constellation, Mary Masterson, made us com- fortable and told us that we were in the competent hands of Carol Ninnec who had just completed her ten day course on “How to Fly.” It was the first flight for many of us so she gave us some air-sick pills which were made of a new drug that was discovered by Rose Basley who is now in the medical re- search field. We arrived just in time to make the first act of the new drama hit starring Lyn Barber, now the toast of Lil ol New York. Her successful debut was due in part to the genius of playwright Maureen Cox who is celebrating her first vehicle to hit Broad- way. In the audience we have such famous celebrities as Carmel Abate, who is now one of the foremost designers in the country. Her gowns are worn by such famous models as Florence Ferrara and Norma Viernickel. Christine Newton put in a very smart ap- pearance. We rarely see her at such a gala affair because she is so busy with her activities as art director of a famous advertising con- cern owned by Margaret Kordoski. Slithering up the second aisle we saw Rose Santeramo who is now a member of the Secret Service division of the F.B.I. After the play, we rushed backstage to congratulate Lyn on her wonderful perform- ance. There we met Mary Santeramo, famous play critic and she predicted that the play would run for years. We all piled into Marie Bruno’s solid gold Cadillac and rode over to the Waldorf Astoria where we were greeted by Marie DiChiara, now manager. She took us on a tour of the famous hotel. Our first visit was to the Beauty Salon where we found Jean Hodapp and Josephine Massino, chief operators. After taking a tour of the whole building, our last stop was the kitchen. There we saw Margaret Gillett, and Irene Giblock who are the head chefs. In another depart- ment we found Gwen Minter and Mildred Farina in charge of all the pastries served there. We sat down to a delicious dinner pre- pared from an exclusive recipe created by Shirley Maness and Marlene Thomas. After a very satisfying meal, we went on to the Met. to catch the last act in which Josephine Astone had her solo. She starred in an orig inal opera by Frances Bruce. Rave notices were given out for that performance. We had to hurry о� as we had a lot more to see and wanted to be able to get up early enough the next day to attend a fashion show with designs created by Alice White, Barbara Lang, and Lorraine Melton. Luckily we caught a taxi driven by Mary Giorgio who told us about Carol Roy, being chosen Queen of the Roller Derby. The cab stopped in front of the Stork Club and we all piled out. Under the famous canopy, we found Joan Polito who bought the club from Sherman Billingsly. She looked lovely in а Doris Fleming creation. Joan told us that a lot of our friends were inside so we decided to table hop. At a ringside table we stopped to talk to Nancy Phillips and Mildred Rosano sitting with their husbands. They were wearing lovely dresses created by Rose Marie Napoli tano and Anna May Griffith. As we wandered around the club, we saw Dolores Laucik with her new millionaire friend. She was wearing an evening gown designed by Joan Smith. Dolores told us that Sophia Oden was planning a trip around the world. At another table we saw Jessie Duncan who was anxious to tell us about her new photography studio. She does fashion photos of Ann Gehring originals. These dresses are modeled exclusively by top model, Mary DiMinica. At still another table ме met Josephine Wogrin and Loretta Edwards who told us that they had just opened a private business school. We also understand that their first student was Jessie's daughter. We sat down at a table to watch the floor show. The first act was Barbara McCoy sing- ing the song for which she was awarded her fiftieth gold record by Eileen Lewis, President of the Dip Record Company. Carol Drelich came on stage next and danced. Her costume was designed by Rose Marie Grant of Saks. The mistress of ceremonies was, of course, Sandra Monda looking lovely in a Roberta LoGuidice creation. Sandra presented Jane Ryan to us, now an established comedienne, who often teams up with Bob Hope. After them Ann Cordi sang, enhanced by a silver lamé Fay Ottolagano gown (most suitable for Ann's inimitable style). By then we were hungry again so the spe- cialty chef, Rosalyn Renner, fixed us all a ) Sta rs of 1054 delicious snack. It was growing late and we had a big day ahead of us so we thanked everyone and headed homeward Extry! Extry! Our first woman President Madeline Peluso has been elected by major- ity vote. The newsboy was swamped by peo- ple eager to know the details. We joined them anxious to support our old friend. Among the crowd at the newsstand we spotted Irene Walko on the arm of Robert Wagner who was in New York for a personal appearance tour. With them was Dolores Basto with a man who turned out to be Robert Wagner’s twin brother. Imagine that! This indeed was an event worth celebrating. We asked all of our friends to come up to our penthouse atop the Empire State Building. Our small group grew into a huge gathering as other alumnae of our Alma Mater came to celebrate Madeline’s success. We were most surprised to see Laura Myer, now a celebrated horse breeder, come in wearing her jodhpurs. Coming through the door behind Laura was Virginia Veronsky Rockefeller with her husband. Virginia’s hus- band is financing a new East African oil de- velopment engineered by Dorothy Tickerhoff. The party was a huge success. It was many hours before we fell into the arms of Mor- pheus, but we looked forward to the fun that was in store for us the next day. Fortunately fashion shows are never very early in the day, and so we were able to be on time. The show was given by Antoinette Lomauro, the M.C. was Lenora Parmigiano and Inez Adams narrated her own creations. The models, Shitley Thiemann, Angela Dan iels, and Lorraine Garruto, looked breathtak- ingly lovely. Their make-up had been done by artists Dolores Gaeta and Rosina Zarra. The coiffures were created by Christine Frunzi and Marion Geguzys, who are partners in Manhattan’s most exclusive salon. Shirley told us that their modeling agency employs Luegenia Parks as figure consultant. A new style trend has been set by Louise Cardone, Marie Pierrie, and Frances Marchese. They call it the Small Smart Creations. Very Chic! In the main dining room of the theater, the waiters served some delicious canapes fixed by Jean McCoy who is now an established caterer. As we lunched, we looked around the beautiful room to find Sally Lewis who now owns a day nursery. Theresa Alfano was there also with her husband Phil. Kathleen Gaffney took time off from the Telephone Company to see the show. She's quite the executive career girl now. Sipping tea with Kathleen was Gladys Holdorf who has been chosen as one of the ten best dressed women in America. But then again Gladys can afford to pay couturier, Marie Fede, to create orig- inals for her; since stock broker, Ethel Brit- ting, sold her.a half interest in an Alaskan uranium mine. Reportedly, there has been a great demand for uranium to mass-produce the new atomic powered space ships designed by Jean Watts. Gladys waved to us and we went over to chat. She told us that Rita Fon- tana and Dolores Mihovich had formed a partnership as business advisors and have been commissioned to make out the govern- ment’s budget. The showroom lights dimmed and the spotlight fell on celebrated Natalie Chiaravallo and her husband, the great musi- cal comedy team. They concluded the show with a medley from Producer Katherine Longo’s new hit show “School Daze.” One thing we hadn't taken in so far was a good movie but at the moment a good ham- burger held precedence with us so we stopped at one of Evelyn Branin’s chain of automats. We paid Loretta Logan who works there as a cashier. When we reached the movie, we saw that Dorothy Clarke and Shirley Bu- chanan were starring in “Two Girls from Essex.” The elaborate candy stand was part of a concession that Lucy Michele has estab- lished in theaters all across the country. Barbara Lovett trimly outfitted, ushered us in and we settled back to enjoy the show. Dur- ing the newsreel, we saw that Josephine Lom- bardo just bought the New York Yankees from Dan Topping for $1,000,000,000. A glimpse of the boardwalk in Atlantic City revealed that the new Miss America is Linda Cutillo. Dorothy Lehman just won the Pills- bury pie contest for inventing a new kind of pie. It’s called “Ab ovo usque ad mala absit omen.” Which is Latin for “From the eggs to the apples may this bring no evil.” The show was interrupted when the manager, Josephine Collalto, came on stage to make an announcement. “Ladies and gentlemen, once a year it is my pleasure to present to you a group of young ladies who have successfully completed their four years here. Welcome to the gradua- tion exercises of the class of 1954.” What! Oh! Why that isn’t Josephine at all, and look at that neat pile of diplomas! Trip to the Un ited lations Two busloads of Stars, under the guidance of Mrs. Owens and Mrs. Jordan, arrived at their destination, the United Nations, via the Turnpike and Lincoln Tunnel. The Stars were amazed at the architectural beauty of the building and were delighted to see people of all nations going in and out of the various structures discussing their ultimate goal, to bring peace to all mankind As we looked around we saw the Secre- tariat Building, which is 73 ft. wide, 287 ft. long, and contains 5,000 windows. The side facing the East River is all glass. All corre spondence, appointments, and general office work is taken care of here. It is also the head quarters of the Secretary General, Dag Ham marskjold. At the North side is the General Assembly Building and at the Southwest cor Join us as we take you off location to the E of the Plaza is the Ulnited Nations' Li эгагу. Ulnited Nations. ; We entered the conference area in the 7488 Ж я General Assembly Building and passed the Economic and Social Council, the Trustee ship Council, and the Security Council. The discussion going on in the Economic The Stars are happy to relate one of the highlights of their last year at Essex High. and Social room was about the budget to finance the Ulnited Nations. In the Trustee- ship room the discussion was about Technical Assistance to the Netherlands. The Security Council was discussing the trouble between Israel and Jordan. The languages spoken at the meetings are French, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, and English. Our morning was filled with constant antic- ipation and excitement, anticipation for the interesting things to come and excitement be cause of our morning travels. Realizing that it was time for lunch and a much needed rest, we shifted our location to the Tudor Hotel, which is two blocks away. We had a delicious lunch and stored up energy for the after- noon’s activities. After lunch we visited the library, which has approximately 160,000 volumes that form an active reference collection of material from many countries and in many languages. The last room we visited, and one of the most inspiring, is the Meditation Room. The dele- gates spend many hours in prayer and deep thought in this room. Every good thing comes to an end. So did our enjoyable day at the United Nations. After taking one last look from the Secre- tariat Plaza of the Assembly Building we boarded the buses for our trip home—tired but very thrilled with a memorable day. ee Off Loca tion One of the activities which all girls look forward to is their Junior Prom. As they must have money to finance it they start early in the school year under Mrs. Wood’s supervision to collect dues, to sell magazine subscriptions, cokes and candy. This money is budgeted. Some is saved for the senior yearbook; some put aside for the senior trip to Washington and some is used for the Prom. Early in the spring Mrs. Wood organizes the following committees: decorations, invita- tions, entertainment and refreshments. Girls elected a committee representing each trade and voted for “Carousel” for the theme. Miss Hodgins was in charge of the decora- tions, most of which were made by the girls in the art room during their noon hour. They started early in February in order to have them completed in time for the June Prom. Many hands and many hours worked to- gether to produce the gay and colorful effect of a Merry-Go-Round. At the same time the other committees were busy with their plans. The invitation committee was getting esti- mates for printing and addressing all the in- vitations. The entertainment committee did that all important job of engaging an orchestra, The refreshment committee took care of the punch and decorated the teachers’ room which was used as an attractive place to relax be- tween dances. Most of the girls thought that the night would never come. Such a tizzy with the last minute preparations!—getting a special hairdo, high heeled shoes, formal frocks and evening bags. What nervous minutes that seemed like hours waiting for their escorts to come, but oh what a thrill when they arrived with flowers to make the evening complete. This was a wonderful evening. It was all like a dream with its flowers and palms, pretty girls, dashing boys, and soft music— and over oh so quickly. Many thanks to all who helped to make it possible and our special thanks to Miss Hod- gins and Mrs. Wood who inspired us.

Yes, we were off for three glorious days in our nation’s capitol. This was the trip we had anticipated for four years and finally it had arrived and we were on our way with plenty of cameras to take pictures which we will have as constant re minders of a dream come true Our first stop was Baltimore where we were met by a representative of the Pennsylvania Railroad. We took our first pictures on the station platform and then went upstairs and found our Monumental bus and driver waiting for us. It was just like a private car, very comfortable and spacious and always at the hotel, or wherever we were, ready to be of service We were very fortunate in having a bus driver who knew Washington thoroughly. He added so much to our trip by taking us to places which were not sched- uled and by telling us many interesting stories about the many points of interest In Baltimore we visited Fort McHenry and saw Old Glory proudly waving. Rain dampened our new shoes and suits but not our spirits at Annapolis. Our driver felt so badly about the rain he took us to the beautiful Franciscan Monastery and Catacombs just outside of Washington. The gardens were in full bloom and were lovely. We arrived at the hotel as scheduled and had lots of fun getting settled. We were assigned four to a room so there wasn't much room to spare. Each room had a private bath and that helped. Washington is beautiful at all times, but especially so at night. We took the boat trip the first night and danced under the stars and raindrops which insisted on falling. A seven-thirty breakfast started the day. We visited the Bureau of Engraving and saw more money than we'll ever see again, Lincoln and Jefferson Me- morials, Pan American building, Federal Bureau of Investigation (we all decided to walk the straight and narrow path—crime doesn't pay), the Capitol, Smith- sonian Institute, Mellon Art Gallery and beautiful Mt. Vernon. Our trip through the White House was filled with thrills. It is so beautiful. We realized as never before how fortunate we were to be Americans. The day to return home came too quickly and we bid our bus driver good-bye. We soon learned that it wasn’t all over—we had another surprise waiting for us. We were taken into the dining car and given a menu made especially for us, “Washington Trip, Seniors Essex County Vocational and Technical High School.” Our trip was wonderful. Not one thing had been forgotten and this was a wonderful way to end a trip that will be remembered for many years by the senior class of the Essex County Vocational and Tech- nical High School. Alma Mater In our hearts there is a picture, Shining bright and true It's a picture of our high school, Our Dear Gold and Blue. For your honor we shall struggle On the Road of Fame, Gratefully, dear Essex High School Singing loud your name. Though the years that go before us, Dim our memory, Recollections of our school days, There will always be.

The final performance has been given and we are prepared for life’s stage where our role will be more difficult and our critics more severe. We trust that this collection of poems written by R. S. Dunn and Robert Browning will serve as an inspiration and help to the Stars of 1954. There’s a time for work and a time for play What we call luck is simply pluck, A time for everything good each day, And the doing things over and over; But never a time in this short life, Courage and will, perseverance and skill, For quarrels and angry words and strife. Are the four leaves of Luck’s clover. The heart too often hath quailed with dread, There shall never be one lost good And quite its courage lost, All we have willed or hoped or dreamed of By casting its glance too far ahead good shall exist; For the bridge that never was crossed, Not its semblance but itself.
