Ex Libris 19 3 9 PUBLISHED ANNUALLY BY THE STUDENTS AT HILLSIDE HIGH SCHOOL HILLSIDE, NEW JERSEY w e dedicate this yearbook to Frank J. Hill who, as chief adviser, has worked faithfully to make our senior activities so successful. DEDICATION zAD MIN IS TRA TION THE FACULTY The Faculty of Hillside High has been more than a teaching staff; they have successfully combined knowledge, kindliness, discipline, and comradeship in order to make better students and citizens of the adolescent group they accepted four years ago. Upon the successful completion of any worthwhile project, it is conventional to distribute credit where credit is due. We, the graduating class, feel that without the whole-hearted support and guidance of our highly esteemed faculty, it would have been impossible to establish and maintain the high standards of which we are so proud. Many are the instances when members of our class sorely needed and amply received help and encouragement from one of our beloved profs.” Then there were times when we might have easily committed homicide over some seemingly unjust act on the part of a teacher. But it never failed that ultimately we found that we were wrong and they were right. We may have cussed” them many times in the past four years but will bless them a hundredfold in the future when we encounter a particularly unreasonable employer. If we called you Ma” or Pop” on occasion, it was only through deep affection and not disrespect that we bestowed upon you that cherished title. We thank you for past favors and future blessings.

Metzger John Harayda Edna Bumen Ruth Levine Patrick McEntee Peggy Short Page Thirty-three CLASS WILL In the past, it has been the policy of each graduating class to formulate a document in which all of the various attributes of the class were enumerated and left as a legacy for posterity. We do not condemn this practice as being sentimental or unnecessary but since the world as a whole has changed in its policies, we feel that in order to further our success after school has ceased to be a constituent of our daily life, we must take our attributes with us rather than leave them behind. And so it is with firm hand and purpose that I hereby declare this legacy the property of the class of ’39. We’re going to take along Jean Shippce’s and Hal Love’s good looks and perhaps we’ll all go to Hollywood someday. We’ll also need Harlow Curtis’ winning personality and Elsie Orban’s friendliness if we want to get ahead in the business world. Perhaps some of Allen Borsky’s wardrobe and Bill Miller’s happy-go-lucky air would help as well. A good portion of Johnny Harayda’s and Pat McEntee’s gridiron experience wouldn’t be bad just in case some of the fellows happen to find themselves on Notre Dame’s squad or some of the girls get an unusually graceful (?) guy on the dance floor sometime. I think a little of Fred Boyle’s or Sara Yurow’s wit might come in handy sometime. There are entirely too many unhappy people in this world and a smile is always welcome. We should also pack up a little of Bob Davison’s fleet-footedness too, just in case we need a little extra speed to catch that 7:30 train to work some morning. Perhaps Elliot Mandl wouldn’t mind sharing with us some of that wealth of knowledge which he gleaned while the rest of us were reclining on our unearned laurels. Pdge Thirty-four SENIOR LOG In September of ’3 5, after having rigged sail and weighed anchor, we picked up a sprightly breeze and began the first leg of our four year journey. With Bob Steele as captain and Jean Shippee, Elsie Orban and Fred Boyle assisting him, the crew enjoyed the sail which featured a Party in May of ’36. As the second lap of our voyage was reached, Harlow Curtis was elected captain with ex-skipper Bob Steele and pretty Jean O’Neil in second command. They proved their seamanship by putting over a swimming party in March of ’37. The faculty advisers, Mrs. Ula Clark and Mrs. Clementine Johnson did admirably to further the success of the project. Another hornpipe was held just before dropping anchor for the year. Captain Curtis was again master of the ship in the Fall of ’37. His staff included two stalwart tars, Hal Mesco and John Harayda. During this cruise, the light fantastic was featured in the social program. A class dance and two proms were held. Each was successfully carried out and was fully enjoyed by all the students. As customs inspectors we had Miss Cosgrove and Mr. Hill. The casting off for our last sail again saw Harlow Curtis at the helm as a result of his unanimous election to that post. First and second mates were Elsie Orban and Ethel Zatko respectively. A senior council was chosen by the students. The council handled all the class affairs. As an extra port of call, we chose Washington, D. C., and spent an exciting four days visiting our Nation’s Capital. Later, the class visited the New York World's Fair and were entranced by the wonderful World of Tomorrow. As graduation drew near, the annual Senior Prom was held and filled our minds with never-to-be-forgotten memories. Commencement exercises officially closed our sea-faring careers on June 19, 1939. As we vacated ship with a diploma clutched in hand, salty tears were shed or swallowed, then the Fog of Life engulfed us and Hillside-High was lost to view.

C. Soon after leaving Aberdeen, Maryland where we had lunched, we arrived at Annapolis, the home of the United States Naval Academy. There, after inspecting the buildings and paying our respects to Tecumseh, the class was thrilled with the picturesque dress parade. When the girls learned that they couldn’t smuggle out any middies,” they lost interest and we moved on to the Capital. That evening, after eating dinner at the hotel, we took a moonlight sail up the Potomac sans the moonlight. The darkness was just as well appreciated however. Dancing and promenading were enjoyed by all aboard. On Thursday, May 18, many points of interest were visited including the White House and the Washington Monument. The afternoon saw us at the Capitol building where we met our State Congressmen, saw the Senate and House of Representatives in session and lost six of our students. Later we visited the Smithsonian Institute and the shopping district. That evening, a banquet was held in the hotel dining room after which the group went to the Library of Congress. A party and dance were held that night also. The beauty of Mt. Vernon was ours on Friday, May 19, when we visited there. Arlington Cemetery and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier were also included in the morning’s program. To finish the day, we saw the Lincoln Memorial, the F.B.I. building, the Zoo and the Franciscan Monastery. After a delicious dinner served with the usual southern hospitality, we were taken to the Earle theatre where we saw a motion picture and were greeted from the stage by the waltz maestro, Wayne King. It was a sad one hundred and eighty-four students who awakened next morning and began the long trip home. As we approached Hillside, all was of the opinion that a glorious adventure had come to a close much too quickly. For a grand trip, we wish to thank our faculty advisers, chaperones, and the weatherman. They all collaborated to make this the most enjoyable event of our school careers. Page forty-two 1.

SENIOR PLAY Growing Pains,” an adaptation of the screen production Love Finds Andy Hardy,” was presented by the Class of ’39 as the annual Senior Play, under the direction of Miss Mary McKecver.

Page Forty-four ACTIVITIES S. G. A. Assembly As a result of the incorporation of a bi-cameral legislature in Hillside High in June 1958, a group of students. known as the assembly dealing mainly with social functions, took their place in the student representation” division of the S. G. A. as the first house of its kind in the history of the Student Government of the school, for the years 19J8-39. The duties of the Assembly arc defined as a house to which all non-financial matters may be tended” while its membership consists of the presidents and managers of all extra-curricular activities on the annual S. G. A. budget.” The vice-president of the S. G. A. is the presiding officer. ( 'ru inr il Breaking away from the tradition of electing two represen- kJCllIUl f || | . i r • f-' • i tatives from each homeroom, this years Senior Council was elected by the Senior Class as a whole. The class officers headed the council with the following fourteen students serving: Rita Herbstcr, Eleanor Finn, Janet Morton, Jean O’Neill, Irene Barnard, Jean Brady, Eugenie McCraith, Rudolph Lutz, Louis McCool, John Harayda, Harold Mesco, Robert Davison, George Hyra, and Harold Love. All questions on affairs of the class such as class rings, Washington trip, candy requirements, graduation exercises, and all senior social functions were brought before the council and they made the decisions with the advice of Frank J. Hill, faculty adviser. Page Forty-six Collectors le ut‘es an G. A. Collector arc to receive weekly payments, punch tickets, and keep accurate account of the books. Each homeroom is represented by a collector. If ninety per cent of the members in the homeroom arc paid up, the collector receives a ten cent payment on his ticket. This year the payments were twenty-ccnts for the first ten weeks. Rita Herbster, treasurer; Evelyn Benoit, assistant treasurer, were supervised by Mr. Wilbur Cox, principal, and Miss Margaret Gaylord, faculty adviser. Student Court Mr. Dunham as its adviser the Student Court helps to maintain rules of conduct in the school. It consists of a Chief Justice, four associate justices and a court clerk. This year those positions were filled by Harlow Curtis, William Miller, Jean Shippee, Fred Boyle, Janet Morton and Jean O’Neill, respectively. The court is aided by Student Directors who are on duty in all halls during all periods and who are responsible for bringing to justice all violators of the school code. These lieutenants were in charge of the directors, Fred Merklc, John Saltys, Marjorie Tully, Norman Butler, Jeanette Chambliss, Irene Pentek, Mildred Rothficld, Marion Conran, Robert Carroll. Page forty-seven National Honor Society Members of the National Honor Society elected Elsie Orban - president, Elliot Mandl - vice-president, Janet Morton - recording secretary, Ethel Zatko - corresponding secretary, and Robert Davison - treasurer. The organization was advised by Miss Eleanor Maurer. Students are chosen by a committee formed from the faculty on the basis of scholarship, leadership, character, and service. During the year a luncheon sale, movie benefit and an alumni dance were held, the proceeds of which went into the scholarship fund. Representatives of the Society were sent to the grammar schools where they told the students about high school life and customs. Council ie Library Council’s president, Marguerite Metzger; Vice-President, Marion McHarg; Secretary, Rita Herbster; Treasurer, Elliot Mandl, and faculty adviser, Mrs. Nettie Estabrook, enjoyed another year of club activities. The Council worked all year to buy new books by selling milk, having a luncheon sale, and movie benefit. The active members attended the Book Fair in New York, and went to the interscholastic convention, November 19, at East Orange High School. Each meeting one person reported on an outstanding book he had read at some time. Also interesting talks were given by visitors and members of the faculty who had traveled during the summer. Library Page Forty-eight The Hi-Y The Hillside Hi-Y enjoyed a diversified program with officers the first half of the year as, President, Robert Popola—Vice-President, Frank Sente—Secretary-Treasurer, William Miller. The officers the second half of the year were, President—Fred Boyle—Vice-President, George Totterwich—Secretary-Treasurer, William Miller with Mr. Sowers as adviser. Joint council meetings with other suburban clubs at the Newark Y. M. C. A., in addition to the regular problem discussion meetings, were held every other Tuesday. Edward Curren was sent as representative to the Older Boys” conference at Trenton. Also, th Hi-Y enjoyed swims every other Thursday at the Newark Y. M. C. A. Gif! Reserves 1C Hillside Girl Reserves supervised by Miss Cosgrove and Mrs. Shiffel, have chosen their leaders to be: Elsie Orban - President; Ethel Zatko - Vice-President; Marion McHarg - Secretary; Rita Herbstcr - Treasurer, and Jane Ramsey - Chaplain. The girls held one meeting each month at the Elizabeth Y. W. C. A. These have been for parties, service meetings, interesting speakers, and other social events. An annual Girl Rescrve-Hi-Y Dance was sponsored by the two clubs and a very entertaining evening was enjoyed by all who attended. The faculty advisers of the respective organizations officiated as chaperons aided by other members of the faculty. Page Forty-nine Tiit-iiot This year the Jun'or Dramatic Club far surpassed itself J in club activities. Under the able direction of its adviser, Mrs. Ula Orr Clark, it presented a play entitled Sweet Sixteen.” A cast of ten boys and eight girls made the hilarious comedy a huge success. The Junior Dramatic Club entered Sweet Sixteen” in the tournament held by the New Jersey Forensic League and received honorable mention for their efforts. Besides presenting the play, the members attended various outings, theater trips and gave several school performances. nfotmtiec Although the sophomores did not form a club this year, opn uramaucs they did producc a pl3y Christmas Trimmings.” This is a story of old Aunt Kate and Uncle Joe who come to visit the Uncle s wealthy relatives, the Saunders, in New York City for Christmas. The presence of Ethel Saunders’ guest, Barbara Shields, adds a touch of spark to the play as does the love-making of Jeppy Saunders and the Southern heiress, Dcbby. The cast is as follows: Burglars—Irving Dubow, William Garyle; Uncle Joe Jerry Yellin; Aunt Kate—Barbara Sodcrstrom; Mrs. J. P. Saunders—Josephine Grasha; Mr. J. P. Saunders—Paul Cable; Jeppy Saunders—John Shawcross; Debby Moscly— Barbara Weinberg; Barbara Shields—Marion Conran. Page Fifty Varsity “H” Club The Varsity H” Club launched into another year of activity under the supervision of John Harayda, President; Peter Humanik, Vice President; Robert Davison, Secretary, Treasurer; and Mr. Gottlieb adviser. The purpose of this club was to promote goodwill among players and students of opposing teams, and players and students of Hillside High. The way in which the opposing teams were received clearly illustrated that the club’s goal was attained. The only requisite for membership was the possession of a varsity letter in any major sport. The members bought crew hats with the club letters on them so that the admiring public might recognize their heroes. Poster Club The oster Club served the school successfully for another year by producing campaign poster and advertising matter that was partially responsible for the success of many of our school functions. Almost all of the events presented on the S. G. A. program were advertised well in advance by neat and attractive posters. President Robert Nicholson, Vice-President Robert Sayre, Secretary Wilfred Prosser and Mr. Harper, faculty adviser, are to be congratulated for their fine work. The club purchased new equipment from money taken in from posters made for outside organizations. Page Fifty-one Band The school band, consisting of thirty-five active members, did much toward making our football season a successful one. The players and spectators were stimulated by the snappy formations and military-like precision of the marching musicians and the music did much to liven up chilly November afternoons. Two members of the band were chosen to represent Hillside in the All-State Band. In the opinion of many, this was the best band in the history of the school.” In the spring, a joint concert of Band, Orchestra and Glee Club was held. The band played at several assemblies and did much to stimulate school spirit. Mr. Victor Bryant directed and Fred Merkle was drum major. Orchestra With twenty talented musicians brought together to form our High School Orchestra, Hillside was well represented musically. Mr. Victor Bryant, who served as director, deserves much credit for his fine work in training these students. Assemblies and Parent-Teacher Association meetings were brightened by the well-chosen selections rendered by the orchestra. The orchestra also participated in the Spring Concert which was the musical highlight of the spring season. It is gratifying to know that the arts still hold an important post in the extra-curricular program of Hillside High. Page fifty-two S 1Ipp pint, A greatly increased and improved combined glee club presented The Gondoliers” by Gilbert and Sullivan in March under the direction of Mr. Victor Bryant. With Richard Ebert, Jack Kisling, Irene Pcrsak, Shirley Barnes, George Tottcrweich, Richard Stevens, Rosamond Van Poznak, David Johnson, and Ruth Holzworth singing the principal roles and Mildred Rothfeld as accompanist, the tuneful, airy operetta was an overwhelming success. It is a typical Gilbert and Sullivan work, being lively, light, extremely humorous and yet lovely with all its Italian gaiety, beautiful flowers, carefree cantadine, and dashing gondoliers. To top its year of success, the glee club performed in a concert in May proving its capability of handling works other than those of Gilbert and Sullivan. Ddtcl BctS Tau This ear t 1C ®eta Tau debating society and sponsor of the debate teams, was under the guidance of Mr. Hunt, new Public Speaking teacher. With Marguerite Metzger as president; Austin Harris, Vice-President; Marion McHarg, Secretary-Treasurer, and a program committee with Helen Heemsath, chairman, an active year was planned. Varsity debaters were Marguerite Metzger, Marion McHarg, Janet Morton, Howard Hammer, Mildred Rothfeld, George Fischlcr, Marion Conran, Marjorie Tully, and Paul Coble, with Owen Patterson and Harold Brown as alternates. The year’s activities included a dance, humorous initiation, with a debate, a debate banquet, debate dance, barn dance, and to top it they went to see Abraham Lincoln” in New York. Page Fifty-three Radio Club In September, the Radio Club embarked on its fourth year and attained the hopes and ideals looked forward to by members for the past three years. Visits to Commercial and Amateur Radio stations and manufacturers of radio equipment were enjoyed by the club as well as participation in Ham Fests.” Amateur licenses are held by some members. Mr. Robert Minchin, faculty adviser, guided and participated in Club activities. President Mike Biz.on stated that, I believe that this has been our most successful year as a club, but there will be no let down in the future.” Assisting Mike were; Frank Policastro, vice-president, and Alex Regi, secretary treasurer. SciCnCC Club ®r'on McHarg, President; Richard Ebert, Vice president; Olive Porch, secretary; corresponding secretary, Frances Shear; Richard Gawlik, Sergeant-at-arms; Mr. Leonard J. Mitchell advising. The Science Club enjoyed its sixth successive year. At each meeting of the club there is a program dealing with some phase of science not ordinarily taken up in the regular science classes. The desires and interests of the members determine the topics for the programs. The programs are planned and presented by different members at each meeting. Pupils gather their materials, arrange them for effective presentation, and carry out their part of the program. Much use is made of visual material. Plans were made for several interesting trips by the club members. Page fifty-jour Hiller Staff Under the editorial board consisting of Marguerite Metzger, Bernice Scarr, and William Melchingcr, the departmental editors and a staff of competent assistants carried the Hiller through another year with flying colors. Feature writing was encouraged by contests among the members of the staff. The sport page was always full of highlights from our athletic contests, and interesting articles told of the attainments of our various teams in their respective seasons. Pictures were a welcome addition to this year’s Hiller and served to make the paper one of the best in the state. The staff attended the Columbia Interscholastic Press Association convention in New York and saw school papers from all over the country. Creative Writing Club As the informality of the club’s discussions last ® year were successful, it was decided upon as the preference over formalities for the meetings this year. Mrs. Ruth Maull, advising the club, assisted by chairman Mildred Rothfeld and secretary George Fischler, saw the club sail through another year of smooth activity. The meetings were divided into three sections; criticism of members’ works, discussion of a selected phase of writing, and meetings to answer questions that may have presented themselves to the author while writing. With the help of Miss Eleanor Koyen, art instructor, the club published a second annual magazine composed of writings selected from the school at large as well as the club. Page Fifty-five v President Elliot Mandl; Vice-President, Peter Muller; or Secretary, William Lampe; Treasurer, Irwin Morris; and Sergeant-at-arms, Ian Alexander, guided the Photography Club in its third successive year under adviser Mr. Rickmeyer. This year, the club members, as in former years, were taught how to develop and print pictures. There were fifty members this year. They were taught the useful tactics of photography. The Photography Club has directed several contests. The winner had to meet the requirements of developing and printing the best picture he had taken. The Club has submitted important pictures of activities in the school this year for the yearbook and the Hiller. mini's A Stamp Club was organized this year under the advisership of .'ndllip VolUU Mr. William D. Herron. The club chose as its officers, Carol Pcr-rine, President, and Joan Doherty, Secretary. The members had individual stamp collections and exchanged among themselves during the meetings. The members got the opportunity to arrange talks whereby they learned facts about the stamps from various sources. Members of the club spoke and philatelists from outside organizations were invited to attend several meetings during the year. Although still a new idea in Hillside High, stamp collecting has become very popular. Page fifty-six Chess Club ™e. chess Club organized this year for the first time under the advisorship of Mr. Bart Ellis, who incidentally is also head football coach, the club met bi-monthly to play matches and discuss the fine points of the game with their able guide. The participants found the game to be unusually fascinating and the club succeeded because of this enthusiasm. Sharp wits and clear strategy arc needed to play well and these faculties are sharpened through indulgence. No interschool competition was held since the club was formed solely for the amusement and entertainment it would afford its charter members. Rifle Clllb doubling in size, the Rifle Club, with feminine members for 1 10 rst l‘me� found itself chuck full of enthusiastic but inexperienced nfllemen; the only returning lettermen being John Hegclcr, Ernest Hegclcr and Bob Davison. for that reason the year was spent in developing talent for the coming year under the able coaching of Mr. Leonard Merrill with Dick Gawlik showing the most promise. The Club shot at the Elizabeth Armory once a week under the leadership of President, Bob Davison; Vice-President, Ernest Hegclcr, and Secretary-Treasurer, Dick Gawlik. Page fifty-seven 1.

Page Fifty-Eight SPOR TS VARSITY FOOTBALL Although they hold no championship title this year, the ’38 edition of a grid squad brought home the best record of any Maroon eleven. Among their six victories, they scalped Weequahic in the traditional turkey-day fracas and Kearny, who had never before bowed to the Hillers. Matawan, Cranford, Bound Brook, and Roselle, also fell under the onslaught of pigskin pranks displayed by the Hillside men. The Hillers outslassed Orange completely yet came out of the contest the loser. The other loss came at the hands of a whirlwind Linden team who eked out a 14-10 decision which virtually clinched the Union County title for them. The ’38 Marauders have the distinction of having scored more points than any previous Hillside team. The team captain was chosen before each game but the large burden of leadership fell upon the team’s four veterans: Ed Butler, foremost place-kicker in the state; Pat McEntee, veteran of three campaigns; John Harayda, Group III All-Stater, and Hal Mesco, the only veteran lineman on the squad. After the season closed, Head Coach Bart Ellis, Assistants Albert Weiner, Patrick Forde and Thomas Greene and the squad were feted by the Lions Club of Hillside. Varsity players received letters and senior lettermcn were given sweaters.

After a poor showing throughout the season, the team showed surprising talents in the first Union County Tournament contest. They defeated Union and then accelerated ahead to whip Westfield. This brought the Comets to the semi-final round where they dropped a close contest to Linden to end Hiller hopes for a County Championship. Varsity players included: J. Bobrovcan, E. Butler, M. De Dominick, P. Humanick, L. Johnson, D. Kochan, H. Love, H. Mesco, S. Michel, E. Morris, R. Popola, F. Sente, J. Silver, and L. Weiss.

With Harlow Curtis tossing streamlined strikeouts and Ed Butler, Mickey Sente, and John Rab, along with Curtis again, featuring extra base fence-smashing, the Comets reached the semi-final round of the Greater Newark Tournament by defeating Roselle Park and Nutley and when this went to press, they were slated to tackle Irvington. The team was coached by Al Weiner and managed by Charles Bobertz and Joel Hockenbury who were assisted by William Lampe and Jack Erk.

Among the victims of the Comet power were Bloomfield, Linden, Cranford, Union, Arts, Belleville and Weequahic. The indoor season started with a win by Hugh Short in the Dickinson High School Meet and ended with the County Championship in which Hillside was nosed out for top honors by the Thomas Jefferson High School squad of Elizabeth. Highlights of this season were Short’s record of 2:03:1 in the Sunday Call Meet, Harry Sperling’s high jumping, Connor’s and Jacobs’ running two-three in the Call 220, Nielson’s quarter in the County Meet, and Short’s annexation of the state indoor half-mile crown. Individual outdoor achievements of considerable note were recorded by Hal” Love who won the County Championship in the Javelin throw with a heave of 181' 3” and also the State diadem with a toss of 175'. Sperling’s jumps in the Newark Academy Invitation of 6 feet and in the County of 5' ll% were records which promise long standing. His best mark was made in the state meet where he cleared the bar at 6' 1 . Harayda returned from the County Meet a champion due to his toss of 46' 7 . However, the greatest mark of the season was made by Hugh Short at Montclair in the State Meet where he won the Group III 880 gold medal and set a new record of 1 minute 59.2 seconds for the distance. The coaches of the team were Mr. Albert Vreeland and Mr. Walter Krumbiegel. Rudolf Solomon was the manager. Bob Davison was elected honorary captain. Page Silty-three LIGHT-WEIGHT FOOTBALL Hillside, this year, has witnessed the inauguration of new version of an old game, light-weight football, under the guidance of Coaches Tom Greene and Jack Lozowick. Nicknamed the Mighty Mites,” the team has well upheld Hillside’s reputation of training good, clean, hard-fighting sportsmen. The opening clash of the season saw a fine Rahway squad bow to a superior Hillside eleven. In the following two games, the outweighed Hillers went down to defeat by close scores to the Columbia High Junior Varsity and to the Irvington High Jay-Vees. Hillside ended their first season in a blaze of glory by running rough-shod over a game Union light-weight team who succumbed on the very short end of a 39-0 score. Page Sixty-four CROSS-COUNTRY TRACK This season’s squad, the best since the sport was introduced here two years ago, turned in an enviable record of six wins against three losses. After dropping their first two meets the team started clicking and swept through to a five meet winning streak, when they were stopped by the county champions, Thomas Jefferson. In the state meet Hillside placed eighth and in the county meet they came in a strong third. The team completed the schedule by being victorious over Peddie of Hightstown. The coaching was ably done by Mr. Walter Krumbeigel. Rudy Solomon was a competent varsity manager and was assisted by John McCormick.

Led by Ethel Zatko, President, Karla Klopping, Secretary, Anne Russack, Treasurer, and Irene Pentek, Refreshment Chairman, the girls have played hostess to similar clubs of other schools. Activities covered by the Association were: Hockey, Basketball, Baseball, Archery, Swimming, Table Tennis, and Tennis. Assisting as coaches were: Miss McWalters, Miss Bobertz and Miss Cherry. CHEERLEADERS Following an idea that was introduced last year, the jitterbug cheerleaders added the Lambeth Walk” to their repertoire of Swing Cheers” aimed at inspiring the Marauders to victory. Under their captain, Nancy Gensel, the girls’ squad, which included June Breece, Adeline Hopf and Barbara Weinberg, was led through the rigorous intricacies of the famous Truckin’ Yell” and others. The boys’ squad, led by Allen Borsky and including Edward Astaire” Currcn, Bill Sharpy” Miller, and John Hotfoot” Bobrovcan, helped by getting the crowd lively and responsive. Mr. Walter Krumbiegel evidently used track methods in coaching the two fast stepping teams and he saw that the senior Hepcats” received a letter for their efforts. Pane Sixty-six Tennis Team Tennis had the services of three veterans this year. They formed a nucleus around which Coach Weyman Steengrafe built his squad. Indoor tennis was inaugurated at Hillside this season and made early spring practice possible. The outdoor season saw the Hiller racqueteers engaging in nine contests of which four resulted in victories, five in defeat. The team was managed by Janet Morton and the team members in their seeded order are: W. Melchinger, E. Finch, L. McCool; alternates were S. Silverstein, G. Fischler, and L. Romainc. Table Tennis From last year’s Table Tennis Club has evolved a first class team which has had a remarkable year of success considering its infancy. Under the direction of Miss C. L. Bobertz, the team won 8 matches and lost none, to finish the season undefeated. The members of the squad in their seeded order are; William Melchinger, Allen Borsky, Stanley Wuhl and George Fischler. Janet Morton served as secretary-manager. Page Sixty-seven Our Gang” off on a picnic. Look happy, don’t they? Oh boy! we eat. Pass a hot dog please. Mr. Stecngrafe again with Barron” Harayda.

This can be done by means of our new Colorgraph process which eliminates the need for expensive color plates. Glance at the pictures above and compare the attention value of the illustration in color with the same subject in black and white. Yet this color reproduction was printed with the same halftone—no color plates were used. This method of color printing is so very reasonable in cost as to be well within the limitations of your year book budget. Make us prove this to you now. We specialize in producing fine School and College Annuals. . . f . - m I - '•� . « O - - — ' S?
