NEILL CLARK DEUIE!-ITIUN IN SINCERE APPRECIATION FOR HIS UNTIRING INTEREST AND FOR THE LEADERSHIP, GUIDANCE, AND CO'UNf SEL RENDERED TO US, INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY, WE, THE CLASS OF 1941, WISH TO DEDICATE THIS, THE FIRST ISSUE OF THE COCKLESHELLQ' TO OUR CLASS ADVISER, MR. A. NEILL CLARK. A MESSAGE It is truly a privilege for me to salute the Class of 1941, the first class to be graduated from the Lower Camden County Regional High School, and I do so with a hearty good will. It is true that you have been with us for only two of your four normal high school years, but it is similarly true that these two years, during which we have been closely associated, comprise the two most important years of your high school career. You, as a group, came to us when our doors were first officially opened in October, 1939. From that time until the present, you have conf tributed much to that part of the school's perf sonality which is separate and distinct from the regular class work. Everything that you have done has, from the standpoint of Regional High, been historic in natureg for you have laid the foundation and established the precedent upon which the traditions of the school will, over a period of years, necessarily develop. It is true that together we have experienced some growf ing pains, but these are the price of our rapid development and must be acknowledged as such. Surveyed in its entirety, it at once becomes ap' parent that the short time through which we have worked together has been productive of many fine and good things. RICHARD S. POLLACK Supervising Principal Massachusetts Institute of c nology, B.S. 'I University . Q l P It is my sincere hope that every individual member of the Class of 1941 will, from the day he is graduated, begin to look back on that part of his life which was spent at Regional with a feeling of pleasure and a sense of loyalty and allegiance which will steadily increase with the years. You've had a tough assignment, which you have creditably discharged. May the future treat you kindly and justly reward your efforts. Signed: R. S.

We have attempted to preserve that air of regularity and dignity in our groups and have substituted for meaningless candid snapshots some that we believe will recall pleasant memories of your days here at Regional. If, after these months of continuous labor on the part of the editors, the advisers, the staff, the pub' lishers, the photographic studios, you, Gracious Patron, feel a bit of the pride and pleasure that is ours when we present our results to you, then our feeble efforts have not been in vain.

IN MEMORIAM Catherine Toll Catherine was a real mem' ber of our class, but unfortu- nately left us in her junior year. Naturally, we missed her. Catherine, who lived on Erial Road, Sicklerville, grew ill during the first of May and passed away on May 27, 1940, from the dread inllamf matory rheumatism. It was her dream to become an air hostess. Q MW Elizabeth Bigwood Frank Tyson , Lindenwold Lindenwold Bessie How 'bout that? Ty Hey, Bessie. Tri-Hif4. Craftsrnanf4.

HISTUHY UF THE EL S5 UF '41 PROLOGUE Please pause, my children, and obligingly hear Of the graduate class of the fortyfhrst year. They came in from districts that are quite scattered, But getting ahead was to them all that mat' tered. So here are their anticsAsome sane, and some queer. AS FRESHMEN AND SOPHOMORES For two years we struggled, Scattered in seven schools, Trying to be studious And learn their many rules. We tried to act quite grownfup As they moved us all around, But now that seems ridiculous, As in later day's we've found. AS JUBILANT JUNIORS At last at R. H. S. we received our recognition. As juniors we were now in the topfnotch position. We didn't know each other, So we had a getftogether, And our Barn Dance soon started a Regional tradition. Beckley, Valentino, Archer, Ferg: Capable officers elected. The first, in fact, of Regional, So recently erected. Our Leap Year Dance in January Caused some of us much work and worry. Then came the trouble of choosing a ring, So to underclassmen its merits we could sing. Life Begins at Sixteen, Our Junior play renowned, And on the page of history It forever will be found. The Music Lovers gave a concert, The tickets for which we sold. We were to have a show with dogs, But the man got sick, I'm told. Hip! Hip! Hurray! The Prom is here! A formal and swanky affair. An-J at this dance were present Many a happy pair. The gym, festooned all gay and bright, When spring was at its very height. As this was the first year of Regional High, The firsts of the school! My! My! They were so large in number, That they'll ever be a wonder. But all too soon it ended. CSigh, sigh.j AS SOPHISTICATED SENIORS We all promised to make good as seniors, Proiting by our experience as juniors, Our old oflicers we refelected, Feeling we had the best ones selected. Then we had to concentrate On selecting our staif For the first Regional yearbook. Then each senior had his photograph Taken, so in years to come We can sit and at them laugh. Our Girls! Our senior play! Its praises are sung to this day. The cast put it on in professional style, The scenery got compliments by the mile. Hail to the class of 1942! They gave us a prom to bid us adieu A few eves before our departure. All our hearts were filled with rapture As we gaily danced. Woo! Woo! Washington! We had so much fun! The Greyhound people kept us on the run. We saw the big town from beginning to end. A very enjoyable time did we spend. We look back now and chuckle, Well done. Graduation in June! XVe leave you, too soon, As with tears we depart from our school. Our diplomas we've gotten, But school's not forgotten- We'll remember each prank and each rule.

And so it goesgtime to get up, time to fall in, roll call, back into the barracks for mess gear, and then to chow. Hurry up, make your bunk, shine your shoes, fall in again, and so to work. - In the evening, lights glowg men retire to talk and smoke, read, study, or sleep. Lights out, taps lingering in the still night. No one stirs except the men returning from pass, and the guard. And then-still dark: but come on, boys! 6:00 A. M. and it starts all over again. That's Fort Dix and the National Guard. Early in 1940 the National Guard and the Reserve became units of the regular army, and two of our classmates, Thomas Spivey and Le Roy Rowand, and several other students of Regional High School are in training at Fort Dix. Tom will be remembered for his fine work in basketball and his superb per' formance as Paul Hollis in the Junior play, Life Begins at Sixteen. Lee was active on the gridiron and in baseball, when he hit the apple, he sent the outfielders for a chase. Both were active in all class functions, and their helping hands are missed this year. Another classmate who answered the call of his country is Royden Snuflin, now a member of the Naval Reserves in training at Noroton Heights, Conn. Pat will be remembered as one of last year's outstanding Regional golfers. Lower classmen in our country's service are Robert Lefty Voigt, Ernest Powell, Lawrence johnson, and jack Holzermer. Lefty, who was his class vice-president, will be long remembered for his excellent work in football, basketball, and baseball. 26 CLASS PROPHECY .As I gaze into the crystal ball, Before me doth appear, The Grads of 1941- My pals of yesteryear.

Mr. and Mrs. Lower Camden Couniy Regional High School Lower Camden County Regional High School first took shape in the minds of the community leaders ten years ago. At this time a committee was formed and a vote taken concerning the establishment of a regional high school for the lower part of the county. Unfortunately, the plan was rejected. On june 8, 1938, Berlin Township, Chesilhurst Borough, Clementon Borough, Lindenwold Borf ough, Pine Hill Borough, Waterford Township, and Winslow Township created by popular vote, a regional district. The members appointed to the first Lower Camden County Regional High School Board of Education by Mr, Albert M. Bean, County Superintendent of Schools, were: Mr. Daniel Grimmie, Berlin, Dr. Robert P. Davey and Mr. Harry Attmore, Clementong Mr. George H. Krueger, Chesilhurstg Mr. Albert Muir, Lin' denwold, Mr. Charles Skerrett, Pine Hill, Mr. G. Norman Schleinkofer, Waterford, Mr. joseph Lodge and Mr. joseph Pino, Winslow. The organization meeting was held on June 24, 1938, at which time Dr. Davey was chosen President and Mr. Lodge Vice President of the Board. Mr. Alfred Green and Mr. Bartholomew Sheehan were appointed architect and solicitor, respectively. On September 7, 1938, the district voted a bond issue, which was approved, for the purpose of constructing the school. The bond issue covf ered fiftyffive per cent of the cost and was subf scribed by The Works Progress Administration as a Federal Loan. Fortyffive per cent of the total cost of 8571000 was donated outright by the Federal Government. On December 12, 1938, the district clerk, Mrs. Edith Templeton, opened her ofhce in the Camden Courthouse. Ground was broken for construction on Decem- ber 27, 1938, by Dr. Robert P. Davey, President of the Board of Education, and actual construcf tion began in january of 1939. In February of this year, the first school board election was also held. Mr. Daniel Horan replaced Mr. Daniel Grimmie and Mr. Joseph DeCerbo took the place of Mr. G. Norman Schleinkofer. Mr. Richard S. Pollack was appointed Supervising Principal, and plans for the opening of school got rapidly under way. The cornerstone was laid on May 30, 1939, with Senator Alfred Driscoll delivering the prin- cipal address. The American Legion Posts, Boy Scout Troops, churches, and other community organizations also participated in the ceremony. The official flag raising was held October 7, 1939. The exercises were in charge of the combined American Legion Posts of the district. Former judge Clifford N. Baldwin was the speaker for the occasion, and music was furnished by the Federal Band. School opened its doors for classes on October 9, 1939, only to be closed for a week and re- opened on October 16 because of the lack of suit' able furniture. A total of 644 pupils, comprising freshman, sophomore, and junior classes, was enrolled in the various courses offered by the school. There were 28 members of the faculty. This number was increased to 33 in 1940. Soon after the beginning of the first school year, Mr. W. Lee German of the Art Depart' ment, planned and designed the school seal, a cockleshell mounted on a triangle with a Gothic capital, superimposed by a sheaf of wheat and a cog wheel. The cockleshell, which has been the symbol of culture since earliest times, represents the seven municipalities contributing to the school. The triangle symbolizes the three points of demof cratic government-freedom of speech, press, and religion. The Gothic capital depicts classical learning, while the sheaf of wheat and the cog wheel portray agricultural studies and industrial training. In the school board election of 1940, Mr. Frank Donio replaced Mr. Joseph Lodge. Mr. Ferd Lorsbach took the seat vacated by Mr. Charles Skerrett, because of his prolonged illness, in the election of 1941. Havin com leted two ver outstandin ears, g P Y g Y Regional is looking forward to much success and progress in the future. if INTER-CLASS PLAYS On February 7th and 8th the Activities Board sponf sored the first annual inter-class onefactfplay contest.

We left for Washington 6:30 A. M. this morning. At 11:00 o'clock we arrived at the Franciscan Monastery, the home of many beautiful reproductions of scenes and places in the Holy City, jerusalem, including altars over the spots where Christ was crucified and buried. At 12:15 we arrived at The New Colonial Hotel for lunch. After lunch we set out on a tour of Alexandria and Mount Vernon, visiting Washington's birthplace, the lodge, the church, and his home, Mount Vernon. Here our group picture was taken. And what a picture it is! We then moved on to the Arlington Memorial Cemetery. While at Arlington, we visited the old and new memorial amphitheaters and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Returning to our hotel, we crossed the Arlington Memorial Bridge and got an excellent view of the Lincoln Memorial and the famous statue. After dinner we again took up our journey around the Naf tional Capitol with the Library of Congress our first stop. As we stepped inside, the beautiful rotunda inspired us to wonder at the genius of its originators. Our wonder was surpassed only by our feeling of reverence as we stood before the case containing the Declaration of Inde' pendencen and the Constitution of the United States. From the Library we went to the Earle Theatre and enjoyed a stage show and Bette Davis in The Great Lie. We returned to our rooms early, but it was rather late when we retired Q3 :30Q. April 24 Dear Diary: Up at 6:30 and roaring to go, only to have our spirits dampened by the rain that was falling outside. After breakfast we boarded the bus for a visit to the F. B. I., the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, and the Washington Monument, which proved both interesting and educational. Moving on, we visited the famous East Wing of the White House and were very much disap' pointed that Lillian's request for an interview with the President could not be granted. After lunch we set out for a tour of the busi- ness and residential sections of the great city, passing the homes of many of the foreign am' bassadors and ministers. To end the afternoon, we paid a visit to the Zoological Gardens. After dinner at the hotel, we were free from 6:30 until 9:30 to go wherever we pleased, but not to get lost. At 9:30 the 1941 Class Dance began, and all who attended had a great time. As was our experience last night, we retired in the wee small hours. April 25 Dear Diary: Up at 6:30 and at 'emf' Breakfast as usual. At 8:30 we said goodfbye to the New Colonial and started on the last lap of our journey. Among other places visited was the Smithsonian Institute, where we were very surprised to see several pictures of one of our faculty displayed in the photography exhibit-none other than our coach, Mr. Fognano. Moving on, we paid a brief visit to the Folger Shakespearean Library and with this stop bade Washington farewell. We lunched at Carvel Hall, Annapolis, and spent the after' noon visiting in the Academy. Among other things, the Middies on parade will always stick in our minds. We left the Academy at 4:30 and arrived, after several hours of hilarious fun on the bus, at Regional at 10:00 o'clock, very tired but wishing we were going again. fs ,. ,, , .. .3.f,.i, gs-. ,i.,'3QLi l.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY On October 16, 1939, we came to an entirely new school. As soon as possible, a class meeting was held, uniting us and establishing a feeling of good fellowship among the students. jim Brooks, Ralph White, Gloria Craig, and Kathryn O'Kane were elected class officers. Miss Bloecker was chosen as our class adviser. When the student patrol was formed. a member from each home room was elected to represent the Sophomores. ln November vse made plans for a class party, an informal danceg and although everyone was a trifle timid at first, all soon entered into the spirit of the occasion. The next event on our calendar was the Sophomore Cotillion, the first formal dance to be held in our School. Although the crowd was not large, a very gay atmosphere prevailed and the dance was a successful affair. When we returned to school in the fall, it was with a feeling of snug satisfaction. We could afford to gaze condescendingly upon those poor struggling creatures, some' times referred to as rookies, with our own humiliation blissfully forgotten. At our first class meeting as juniors, Bob Conley, jim Brooks, Gloria Craig, and Louise Gargano were elected officers. Our first junior affair, a masquerade dance, held on October 26, 1940, was a ripfroaring event, with pumpkins, witches, cats, clowns, gypsies, Hawaiian dancers, and costumes representing everything conceivable. The cafeteria was suitably decorated for the occasion. On February 7 and 8, a onefactfplay contest was held. We came out victorious, and our thanks are extended to the cast and to Miss Bloecker, who directed our play. We are looking forward to the Junior Play with full confidence in the ability of the cast to make a success of anything they undertake. The cast includes Kathryn O'Kane, Thomas Fean, Claire Miller, Ralph Picot, Doris Warrington, Eugenie Myers, Helen Chambers, Grace Lohring, Fred Weissmann, Chuck Foster, Bob Weir, and Bob Kelling. Four members of the junior Class received positions on the newly formed Student Council. The next event coming our way is the much publicized and much anticipated junior Prom. This is to be an outstanding affair and is to coliform to the idea of spring in its decorations. Next year we'll be Seniors. 1942, here we come! 36 3' 4 l, 3. ' V ' - 1 .

P r e sident Bob Voight ...... ................................ .... V i cefPresident June Markart ..... gk.:-A-ir. . . .... ...... S ecretary The first affair the class gave was a party for the entire class. There was almost IOOW attendance. In the spring of 1940, the class held a good oldffashioned barn dance. This proved to be the most successful dance of the school year. Good old square dances and Virginia reels were conducted. Refreshments were served, and teachers as well as students had a grand time. The gym was decorated to resemble a barn, and the atmosphere was really corny, The class had representatives on the Student Council, Student Patrol, and on the football, basketball, baseball, swimming, and wrestling teams last year. In the fall of 1940, the class again held an election. Al Olson retained his office as president, Georgia Saunders, a newcomer to the school, was elected vicefpresident, Phyllis Muerdler was elected secretary, and Lorrain Young, also a newcomer, took The class held a dance in the fall with football as their theme. The gym was e office of treasurer. ecorated to represent a gridiron with pennants of high schools and colleges. This dance turned out to be another huge success for the Sophomore Class. Another dance is planned for May. It will be informal. This affair is expected to be as grand a siyess as have been all preceding functions sponsored by the Sophomore Class. The sophomores entered the play contest that was sponsored by the Activities Board. In this contest, the class did not meet with its usual success. The play was a comedy sketch, titled His First Shave. The cast was Paul Frost, Jean Sickler, Randal Lynch, Ethel Bailey, and Gloria De Stefano. The sophomores have had representation this year in all activities of the student body. They have had active parts in student government and student patrol, in football, Joseph Anthony was elected cofcaptain for next year. The class has had members on the basketball and wrestling teams, and' in all probability will have players on this year's baseball and track teams. 39 11 .lg-we A mv Q f ., x V K var y Q .

We hesitated to acknowledge our ignorance and timidity at that time, nevertheless, we were ambitious and eager to begin the first chapter of our life at Regional. The instructors and upper classmen were kind and considerate. Learning that initiation was a thing of the past, we were happily disappointed, as we had looked forward to it with much anxiety. Under the competent supervision of Mr. German, our herd, approximately three hundred in number, was corralled into the auditorium one day in the middle of the term. It was then that we became an organized class, electing Thomas Del Rossi, presidentg Catherine Lacey, vicefpresidentg Ida Fisher, secretary, Edward Aspell, treasurer. Nine freshmen, one from each home room, were chosen as candidates for the two positions on the student council. The two elected by ballot were Mary Clendening and Rita La Bree. , The Freshman Class was well represented in the competitive sports given during the school year. Two of our members, Havard Ludweck and Thomas'Del Rossi, were successful candidates for the varsity basketball team. Q The first financial venture of the Freshman Class was the Senior play. Many freshmen attended both performances. p Our class adviser, Mr. German, underwrote one hundred tickets as proof of pur ability as salesmen. Q 1 The magazine sale was the next undertaking of the class for making money. A tidy sum was accumulated. The cafeteria was the scene of a getftogether party held the day before the Christmas Vacation. On the evenings of February 7 and 8, onefact plays were given by each class. The freshmen presented The Midnight Ghost. Miss Gould was the play director, assisted by Miss Phillips. The cast included Mary Clendening, Ethel Hipple, Mary Ernest, Florence McLaughlin, Margaret Holmes, Earl Lizotte, john Holzermer, and Bill Norcross. As the result of their efforts, the Freshman Class was awarded third prize, and the sum in treasury was materially increased. As we temporarily disband at the end of the term, we look forward to our re' union in September with the comforting thought that we will be rookies no longer. 41 lf' 'f WC '5 1 X 5 :--,- F' , ., : gui y N in , f A 'Q XiQ,f ..L91 , , 1.11 Q 54 V 1 0 J P .

THE SHELL Under the capable direction of its advisers, Miss Megargee, Mr. Muller, and Mr, German, this year's staff established our school newspaper among the leaders in the National Exchange for School Papers Produced by Mimeograph. In every school the news' paper plays an important part4and Regional is no exception. We are justly proud of our monthly issues. Our staff-Editorfinfchief, Hilda Spivyg Associate Editors, Rita La Bree, Ann White, and Minerva Blankg our reporters, and others too numerous to mention, have done a swell job with writefups. , W J ww ' The business and production staff also deserves praisc for its splendid cofoperation with the other depart' ments. We must compliment Miss Gould, Miss Phillips, Mr. Connor, and Mr. Pritchett for their able assistance. The Vari-typer, a machine not available to all schools, added much to the attractiveness of the pages. Many improvements, including cartoons and more orig' inal articles, have been made Upon our last year's issues and many more will be made in the future. MUSIC DEPARTMENT Regional High School Music Department was founded at the opening of the new school. The aim of the music department is to help students attain the following objectives: QU to acquire the ability to appreciate and discern good music, QQ to discover and develop musical talent, 13, to recognize beauty in music, Q41 to develop a techniqueof selffexpression through either instru- mental or vocal music, Q51 to develop the cultural side of life, f6j to acquire skill which will have possible vocational value. Instruction in music is in two divisions: QU required, one semester of music for freshmen, Q21 elective, instrumental and choral, open to upper classmen and freshmen groups. iThe chorus' includes members from the four classes who have progressed rapidly. The mem' bers of the chorus, upon entering, knew nothing of the essentials of music, therefore, the first year, the activities in which they participated were limited. They had to be taught harmony, melody, fourfpart harmony, and chorus singing. Their accomplishments for the past two years include a Christmas carol service and Sir John Stainer's Crucifixion during the Easter season. In the spring of 1940, the orchestra and chorus enter' tained the parents at a district Parent Teacher Association meeting and gave an assembly for Memorial Day. During the 1940-1941 season the chorus and orchestra saluted Lower Camden County in a broadcast over the Radio Station WCAM in Camden. 'They also presented a Spring Festival and played a major part in the service in commemoration of Memorial Day. The instrumental classes train students to play brass, woodwind, string, and percussion instruf ments. As they progress, they are advanced to the band and orchestra, which meet once a week during the eighth period. The orchestra, which for the purpose includes the band, performs for every assembly and all other functions when possible. Other than the broadcast and the Spring Festival, the orchestra added to its accomplishments by supplying music for the Junior Play and for Commencement. The band carried the colors of Regional High School to all football games. Underclassmen are urged to participate in the band and orchestra. Under the capable leadership of Mr. Frank Haenle, great strides have been made in the past. A very promising future includes instruc' tion in harmony, history of music, and advanced instrumental technique. When schedules are so arranged that sufficient rehearsals can be held, an operetta will be part of our annual schedule.

AKC- A .Lv k ' W. v Q - E .-,f RH A Cv FOOTBALL On October 7, 1939, the Regional gridders made their first appearance on the gridiron, at Glassboro. Our inexperienced boys went down under the score of 2OfO. Not too bad for the first game. A week later the Regional gridders remained home for their second game of the season, against Middle Township, only to bow to a score of 39fO. Regional then played the third game and was defeated, this time at the hands of Pleasantville, 39fO. The fourth and fifth games were no better than the rest: Gloucester 33f6 and Newton 24fO. In the final game, not depressed by successive def feats, the Regional team upset Hammonton by the score of 13f7, Fognano and Jackson doing the scoring, thus finishing the season with a victory under their belt. On September 21, 1940, Regional started its second season of football history by bowling over Salem with the score of 6f0 as a result of a for' ward pass from Jackson to Weissmann. After being in the winning column for one week, our Gridders again met the Glassblowers, who topped our boys 19f6, with Weissmann do' ing the scoring. Regional's warriors regained their winning stride by defeating Swedesboro by the score of 7fO, Jackson making the only score. The squad is as follows: Bottom Row, left to right: Joe Anthony, Frank Schloendorn, Warren Walker, Robert Jackson, John Fognano, CofCaptain, Harry Smith, Fred Weissmann, John Thumm, Robert Holloway. Second Row, left to right: James Ianotti, Jesse Sher- wood, CofCaptain.

Third Row, left to right: James McGowan, Charles White, Walter Fieger, John Ballinger, George Eck' stien, Ernest Powell, John Lynch, Edward Herbert, James Brooks, Fred Kowalchuck, Fred Deichert, Lloyd Knowles, Albert Meizenzahl. Last Row ftopj, left to right: John Super, Assistant Managerg Thomas Watson, Head Manager, Mr. Fog- nano, Assistant Coachg Mr. Pocius, Head Coachg Mr. Oakes, Assistant Coachg Charles Cooper, Assistant Managerg John Mosely, Assistant Manager. Another setback was suffered at the hands of Middle Township, the score being 13f6. Smith raced 20 yards for our only score. After an open week Regional turned the tables by defeating Pleasantville 6fO. The touchdown occurred in the third period as a result of a twelve yard pass from Jackson to Weissmann. Our boys then moved to the fourth triumph of the season by conquering the hard-fighting Gloucester with the score 7-O when Rodio, our fast fullback, passed to Smith in the third. On November 9th our boys traveled to Mer- chantville, hoping to bring back their fifth win of the season, only to bow to the score of 6f0. Regional closed the football season in fine fashf ion by defeating Hammonton at the latter's field by the score of 19f6. The first score came in the second quarter when Jackson skirted left end for ten yards. The next tally went to Hammonton, tying the score at the half. In the third quarter Rodio pitched a perfect pass to Smith on the 15- yard line. Harry ran the remaining yards for the second score, Walker missed the conversion. Re- gional's third score came in the middle of the fourth quarter when Rodio tossed a pass to Jack' son, who went thirty yards for the score. In a successful line buck, Jackson made the final score, thus ending the season with five victories out of eight games. LEADING THE CHEERS During the summer of 1939, before the foot' ball team played its first game the Cheerleaders' Club was formed, and under Mr. Haenle's direc' tion had much practice before the first game of the season was played. Since these girls were without previous experience, there was much to learn. They have done a great job. The Club has done much to arouse school spirit and susf tain interest in all school activities. Members of the squad are Mr. Frank Haenle, coach, Ethel Di Muzio, captain, Mary Bianchi, Ruth Blaese, Marie Kuhn, Clara McCall, Lillian Norcross, and Grace Lohring., BASEBALL April 5, 1940, started the final sport of the year, baseball, and it turned out to be our best sport of the year. After being defeated in both football and basketball, everyone thought that baseball too would be Hnally tallied in the defeat column. This opinion was changed when we opened the season at Hammonton and came home with an 11 to 6 victory under our belts. We went through the rest of the season in perfect style, winning 4 games out of 11. This was very' good for our first appearance on the diamond. TR The 1941 sports schedule for Regional High School includes a new venture, track. With an adequate number of experienced fellows to take part in both track and field events, the first season should be a very successful one. It may take a year or two to develop a really good team, but in any event the boys will put up a hard fight for victory. Even without the year of experience boasted by most of our other teams, the prospects Our other victories were over Glassboro, Audu- bon, and Gloucester Catholic High Schools. We are looking forward to the 1941 season with high hopes and a determination to win. The squad are from left to right First Row: M. Branca, Assistant Manager, Ed. Fanz. A. Munzo, R.

ACK are very much in favor of sending an excellent team out on the field this year. Although the team is not without hopes of win' ning meets, its only goal is to make a good showing at the Penn Relays. Row 1: Snuffm, Hernandez, Kelly, Scott, Mosley, Foster, Johnstone, jones.

MARCHINC-5 TROOP The Marching Troop consists of sixty girls and is led by three drumfmajorettes, Grace Ferg, Claire Miller, and Gloria Craig. The Troop was organized during the summer of 1939 by Mr. Haenle for the purpose of building morale in the newly organized School. The girls of the troop wear blue skirts and white sweaters, and the majorettes wear white skirts and blue sweaters. This year two color bearers, two color guards, and a sword bearer were appointed to the troop. During the half, at the Middle Township game in October, 1939, the American Legion presented the School with an American Flag and the School Colors. For this occasion the assistant drum' majorettes were color bearers. In September, 1940, the Troop was taken over by Miss Holler and Mr. Fognano. The Troop has much practice on the Athletic Field under the direction of the majorettes and the sponsors. The girls perform many types of drills, march before the games, during the half, and at the end of the gameg they form the school letters and those of the visiting teams, supplying the touch of beauty at the football games. 55 BASKETBALL With a smooth passing attack and a good defense, but lacking height and a good scoring punch, the 1941 Regional Boys' Basketball team played its second unsuccessful season. Showing much better basketball this year than last, the boys played their best games of the season against Pitman, Gloucester Catholic, and Swedesboro, losing to Pitman after a hardffought battle by the score of 22f16. On january 21 our boys met Gloucester Catholic, and having the scoring punch but lacking the stuff to keep ahead, went down in defeat by a tough score of 32'27. REGIONAL The Regional grapplers did a fine job this year. They were outstanding both in the wrestling league and among the school's winterfsport ath- letes. Out of nine scheduled meets, our boys won four-Admiral Farragut .Academy fa practice meetj, Gloucester, Glassboro, and Trenton, but lost to Cheltenham, champions of Philadelphia Suburban League, and, Paulsboro, champions of the South jersey League. The meets with Law' renceville Academy, Blair Academy, and a return meet with Paulsboro were canceled. The boys did themselves proud and helped greatly to establish Regional in the wrestling league when Qhey closed the wrestling season in fine style by placing second and bringing home two championship, two seconds, and five third Still determined to win a game, on February 18 our boys met Swedesboro for the last home game of the season. This game was another thriller, because the boys, ahead for the Hrst time in many a game, as the last quarter got under way, be' came too excited and let the game slip through their hands by the score of 26f21 Row II: B.

The spirit of the team was inspired by the coach, Miss Letitia Holler. Virginia Mackler was the manager, and Helen Chambers captained the team. Although the season was not very successful from the point of view of victories, it has given the girls the practice to carry them through the future years. Gloria Craig was an outstanding member of the team. There will be three girls graduating, but the team has experienced juniors and sophof mores for next year and great promise in the freshmen. The team should be more successful in the years to come. Marie Zuest, Violet Weigend, Marie Kuhn, Bernice McLaughlin have been awarded letters.

It is at this point that I find myself today. The 1941 Cockleshell is ready for the press, and there remains only the task of finding suitable words with which to express my thanks. It would be nice to set forth in glowing terms the things that so many of you have done to make this hook a success, but knowing that you understand my feelings, I will merely say thank you. It is impossible to mention here the names of all who helped, but I wish to make the following acknowledgments: To our sponsors, Mr. Russell, Mr. Quinn, and Mr. Connor, with' out whose undivided interest and assistance this book would not have been possible, my sincere thanks. An orchid to Miss Schuf macher for her helpful suggestions. My thanks to Mr. Nichols of Campus Publishing Company, and Mr. Rubin of Sarony Studios for their untiring patience in some very trying situations. My heartfelt thanks to my staff, whose cooperation and sacrifices have so greatly helped to make this book possible.

Phone, Berlin 27 Y 1 QXX -- SIGNIFICANT FACT, tOO obvious to require much elaboration, is the growth of the Campus PublishinggCompany. From seven to seventy yearbooks in three years, to make us the largest exclusive year- book publishers in the east. One way to explain it is to say that Campus in not an engraver, a printer, or any other type of fiprocessor, but a service organization well acquainted with the ins and outs of yearbooksg co-ordinating all the phases of yearbook planning and processing. Not being a processor, we can cover the field more completely. There is no budget too small or too large in which we are not interested, nor any reproductive process that we cannot supply-letterpress printing, engraving, offset printing, or gravure. - Using these processes to the best advantage, we now make available five different means to a good book. In letterpress printing, MASTER-PRINT and HENGRAV-PRINT. In offset printing, MASTERTONE and HVELVETONEH -and in gravufe, REGENTVURE. All five, from start to finish, are handled alike, receiving the same Perceptiplan servicing, specialized handling of your yearbook from the infant idean to delivery of a fine finished edition. All five are Campus books through and through. These five - differing in price only as they differ in desired effect and budget limita- tions - possess in full those superiorities in appearance, economy, and general effect that have, in three years, made Campus the leading service organization that it is. , , , I, PUBLISHING COMPANY,INC.
