The freshman year was highlighted by the class dance, the Freshman Frolic, and a variety show in which many talented students made their first appearance. Completely acquainted with Regional ' s ways as sophomores, this class went on to put on a Soph Hop which met with the unusual success that has characterized the activities of this Class of 1954. The big event for any junior class is, of course, the Junior Prom, and a talented class such as this could do nothing but make a big success of the affair. JUNIOR HOMEROOM 14 First row: W. Baber, M.

This year Bob is assisted by Don Mindas and Judy Anderson, the other officers. Talent of all sorts is distributed among this class. Many sophomores are in the various music groups, while several are in the Ensemble. These sophomores have been awarded quite a few prizes for artistic ability. Through a newly inaugurated practice, several sophomores are on the Regionalogue staff and have proven very helpful. The dances and other activities of this class have always been highly successful. All in all, this sophomore class seems to have what it takes to make an outstanding, top-notch class. SOPHOMORE HOMEROOM AUDITORIUM 1 First Row: E. Couch, E. Chabak, J, Craddock, M. Burns, D.

' T 1 COMMERCIAL The excellence of our Commercial Department is surpassed by few — outmoded by still fewer. The experi- ence gained through the use of various office machines and the superb training which we received will be valued by all commercial graduates. The employer who re- ceives a finished product of our commercial department will indeed be fortunate! Busy bookkeepers. CLOTHING Building on a basic knowledge of styles and materials, beginning clothing students work their way through simpler projects and event- ually enter the advanced classes. The girls with several years of experience make suits, coats, even- ing apparel, etc. The years work is highlighted by a fashion show in which each girl models the garment she considers to be her best work. Next step — Powers Modeling Agency. 66 Oh! to work in this office! LANGUAGES Our French, Latin and Spanish classes help to give Regional its cosmopolitan air. A writing, reading and speaking knowledge of langu- age is stressed and enjoyed by our linquists. Although required for college prepatory students, many commercial and general students elect a language and find it very worthwhile and pleasurable. Parlez-vous Francais? FOODS Foods classes vary from begin- ners to advanced classes and include a new experimental group. A special phase of advanced foods is the faculty luncheons, run com- pletely by students — from planning to serving. In the new addition, the Home Management department will expand and will have facilities for better food experimentation and demonstration. Oh that delicious aroma ENGLISH From Scott to Shakespeare to Shelley, our English department offers a wide cultural background of literature in all forms. A basic knowledge of writing and speaking essential for success in either busi- ness or college is given. A specializ- ed section of this department furnishes elective classes in speech and dramatics. % % English would be a pleasure in this new room. 67 MATHEMATICS Regional ' s math department no longer limits itself to classroom time to teach students who are interested in improving themselves. Mr. Scott, the department head, has been doing some advanced work with seniors — analytical geometry during class and an introduction to calculus in Advanced Math Club. Einstein has nothing on them! Hope Chests, Gals? SCIENCE DEPARTMENT The science department attempts to give its students a proper appreci- ation of the importance of science to our modern day living. By using proper laboratory apparatus, it prepare s students for future voca- tions in applied fields. Experiments and research are impressed on the students by the Science Department. 68 Heh. heh, heh! ' SHOPS With a wide variety of machines and hand tools with which to construct many different types of projects, the shop workers turn out hundreds of beautiful articles during the year. More than two hundred participate in the shop program each day. Many boys plan their own projects, while others build articles from the scores of plans available in the shops. Gutenberg should see this! Future Craftsmen. SOCIAL STUDIES The social studies department is a busy and vital part in any school and Regional is no exception. Since we are living in such a critical period in history, special stress is put on current affairs with trips to the U. N. and forums. The social studies department, through various forum organizations participates in local conferences, broadcasts, for- ums, and debates. World wise thinkers ' 69 The art department headed by Miss Perry, does outstand- ing work throughout the year, The students in the department make decorations for school dances and displays for the showcase. 70 Budding Disneys and Van Goghs. AGRICULTURE Our agriculture department has increased in size and facili- ties this past year. Our new ag building, with machine shop and classrooms, is being used for general school use but whh the completion of the addition to the school proper we ' ll move into our new guarters. In the meantime, our routine work continues — gardening, land- scaping, animal husbandry, poultry and all allied fields. Are those tomatoes? 71 CHOIR — ■ First row: C. Castellano, B. Kihlgren, N.

Nevertheless, each month, through the combined efforts of the advisors, editors, reporters, and typists, the staff manages to turn out a four-page publica- tion. Its editors continually strive to inform and enlighten the student body by recording in black and white a complete account of school events.

Football Go get him, ]udd! For the second year running, Region- al ' s footba ll campaign has been unsuc- cessful, record wise. But records are not always the best criterion in measuring an athletic season. Except for the Rail- way game, which seldom seems to end correctly for the Bulldogs, and the Som- erville contest, Coach John Brown ' s men gave a winning performance in every appearance. .Breaks and the weather aided Linden in a 6-6 tie, while Union came up with a spirited game and held Regional to a scoreless tie. Starting out with an 18-0 triumph over Hillside, Regional won 4, lost 2, and tied 2 with one of the lowest collective scoring totals in Union County. After a 39-7 de- feat by Somerville, the Bulldogs beat Caldwell, 12-6, and Roselle in a thrilling last-minute rally, 7-6. The ties sandwiched the standout production — a 13-0 victory over Westfield.

Several of the de- feats were by narrow margins to top-rated teams. The loss to Plainfield, for instance, was by one point, and the team led St. Mary ' s throughout the first half before going down to defeat. Two decisive victories over Rahway were highlights of the season, although the team ' s best game was probably the 52-44 upset vic- tory over Linden. Seniors Judd Herman and Johnny Keith led the team throughout the year, but a late season drive was sparked by newcomer Tom Luckie. Sophomores such as Luckie and Joe Schaffer- noth and juniors like George MacKenzie and Ray Reiff give the coaches reason to look for- ward to years to come. 84 First row, left to right: T. Rego, R.

Wrestling Regional ' s wrestling has improved greatly and is definitely on the upgrade. Senior Al Hector, who went undefeated for two seasons, and sophomore Richard Scorese, who has a perfect record this year, deserve special com- mendation. A majority of talented underclass- men speak well for the team ' s future. Our 32 to 6 victory over Rahway was a highlight of the team ' s career.

Presents placed here and there, discarded boxes, tissue paper and Tommy set the scene of confusion in the living room of the Banks ' residence. The small wedding that Kay and Buckley had planned never materialized. Tommy, Kay ' s younger brother, just couldn ' t seem to do anything right. He never combed his hair and even lost his cuff-links on Kay ' s wedding day. Poor Mr. Banks, he had to pay all those bills. We attribute much of the success of the play to the able directing of Miss Mac and her assistants. No contracts as yet have been of- fered to the production of Father of the Bride to appear on Broadway but it did create a sensation on the rural circuit. ' My name is not toots!

Alma Mater Here stands our high school tried and true, Where hearts have been content, And thru the years our hearts will cling To memories we ' ve spent. O hail! O, hail! Dear Regional High, A school like ours to cherish. On solid rock she ' s standing still, We know she ' ll never perish. The towers stretching to the sky, The babbling brook beside it. We love thy halls ; thy campus green How high they lift our spirit. O, hail! O, hail! Dear Regional High, We love and honor thee. United voices sing thy praise, With sad hearts now we leave thee. 98 School was never like this. IN MEMORIAM He was an average guy, full of life. One you ' d expect to see talking with his buddies at the corner store or hunting with his favorite rifle. People liked him and he never held a grudge nor saw bad in any person. His ambition when he got back was to build himself a car. Paul Buckley was only 19 when he was killed in Korea in 1952. He gave his youth that our chance in life might be kept free. He gave his right to happiness, his right to life, his right to hope. He took only his pain and death. Perhaps this might be a reminder that, like many others, Paul Buckley will be forgotten and that we owe homage to these soldiers who went through bloodshed and tears and lonesome thoughts that we might have our freedom.
