Alhando is a project of the senior class to raise funds for the three school publications, from which the word Alhando is derived: ALembic, I-IANdbook, DOdger. By selling out the auditorium show both nights, a new, unbeatable record was established. The success of the stage show was due in great measure to the invaluable help of Miss Myrtle Hutchins, director, and Mr. Joseph Francis, co-ordinator. Promptly at 7:30 the performance began with melodic orchestral and rousing band music, under the direction of Mr. john Torick. As the lights dimmed, the curtains parted, and lean Seymour ex- tended a cordial welcome to all. The show opened with a hilarious skit, The Little Red Schoolhouse. The actors and actresses were none other than our own faculty. Without a doubt it was the students who most enjoyed the take-offs of their classroom behavior. It is debatable whether Tubby Finlds CML Edward Holly pranks or Pee Wee Reese's QMr. William Helstrom posture was more laugh provoking. First on the variety show was a Scotch number, Ten Bonnie Lassies, performed by a G.A.A. modern dance group. Arno Noack, a newcomer to Alhando, demonstrated his dexterity in music on the eighty-eight keys of the baby grand. Head majorette of the M.H.S. band, Pat jaggers presented not only a snappy routine but also a new feature on our stage. This was indeed a spectacle as the lights of her baton flashed through the darkness of the auditorium. This year we had the pleasure of introducing Mr. Michael Semanitzky, who enchanted the audience with two Dick Tucker and Gretchen Hall elamlmrie violin solos, lntermezzo and Gypsy Melodies. Phyllis Villone gave jest to the program with .1 pc-ppy tap dame. Our prestldigitt1ting prestidigitatorsf' C.l1.lllL'N l:.llllTlL'ZgL'I' .ind Allan Reeder. proved that the hand is quicker than the eye. Next john Barney' and his band .idded .1 gay note in the way of dam.- musit, Our senior piano duo. Grettlien Hall .ind Dick Tutlter, gave their fourth and lin.1l pertiormamc, .1 marvelous rendition of Ciershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. Our Guys and Their Dolls, a finely-executed dame by the G.A.A. Rockettes, concluded the fifteenth Alhando stage show. lfollowing the show the chairmen of concessions. Marian Campbell and Frank Cestone, with advisor Mr, Charles Dreeland, provided entertainment throughout the school. They were aided immeasur- ably by the senior concession chairmen, the entire senior class, and many willing workers among the underclassmen, There were Several new and different contessions added this year, The long, hard prepara- tion by each concession committee was evidenced by the .illfover success of Alhando, Among the conces- sions whith highlighted lllff evenings were the Mid- way, .1 haven of fung Food Sales and Pantry Shelf. .1 boon for empty stomachsg lfortune Telling, an attraction for the curiousg Spook House, a thriller for allg and Danceland, a romantic paradise with john Barney's band. The Universe of Science per- formed many fascinating and enlightening experi- ments, A newcomer to the concessions was the Radtliff Punch and judy Puppet Show, presenting several humorous plays.

With this in mind we collected used clothing, which we sent to New York. From there the clothes were sent to those places where they were most needed. As seniors, we unanimously decided to adopt Peter again. This time we earned the money by class projects. We had races to see which homerooms could earn the most money with cake sales, and we sold programs at the basketball games. Pierke often wrote us letters telling us of his school and family activities and what he did with the allowance we sent to him. Every class member received a picture of Pierke. To questioning wallet-wonderers when they asked Who is this? of Pierke's picture, the Class of '56 member would reply Why, this is Pierke, our Foster Child! In the beginning of our junior year during a cabinet meeting, the suggestion was made that we adopt a war orphan through the Foster Parents' Plan for War Children, Inc. The entire class gave its enthusiastic support to the idea. ln the following weeks every class member gave a dollar, and we soon had enough money to send in an application for the adoption of a war orphan. Shortly we received a letter from the Plan telling us of our child. Peter Johannes Wilhelmus Pfen- nings was his name in full, but we called him by his nickname, Pierke. Pierke, the youngest of seven children, was living in Holland in a two-room house. His father, broken by the war had taken his life leaving his mother with the children. Although the children in the family worked, the little which they were able to do was not enough to support the entire family. We were glad to be able to help.

Last year's custom of Vic. tory Parties has been successfully continued. A new activity has been introduced this year, partly under Varsity M sponsorship. Noonin' , as it is called, makes use of the gym for varied recreation on days when the weather is bad outside. An important Charter revision has been made this year. The additions have included clauses outlining in detail the ideals of loyalty and conduct expected of all boys on varsity teams of Madison High School. One of the great social successes of the year was the Varsity M Spin. The club rented the Florham Park Skating Rink for the evening of February 20, reserving it for the whole school. A great turnout to this unusual activity resulted. The annual trip of the club was continued last spring with a trip to Asbury Park. A similar trip is planned for this year.

PUUTB LL 1955 This year's Varsity team started with the same handicap that faces all of our Varsity football teams -a shortage of manpower. Our new head coach, Mr. Ted Monica, who had replaced Coach Mike DeArmott on the Madison faculty, started work on September 1 with Coach john Francis and Coach Frank Stallings, working with a squad which included only six varsity lettermen of the previous year. In late September, as the Butler game neared, Coach Frank Bottone joined the staff. Despite the great determination and long hours of work which the team put in, the record does not show the fine play of the team. Many of our losses were by one point and could have gone either way. Possibly the best example of this was the Caldwell game. Caldwell, a highly favored team, was thoroughly outplayed, winning only by one lucky break in the game. Summit, also favored, was out- played throughout the first half, winning only through the greater numbers of fresh players which it could use. In the Morris Hills Regional game, Madison gained a dramatic reversal of the general trend of the year as Steve Auer filled in for injured Pat Luciano, sweeping the opposition off the field with a brilliant display of passing, completing eight out of ten attempts, the shortest of which covered over fifteen yards. This year's team had five seniors who all played pivotal roles on the team. They were Tom Dusen- berry, Tony LoSapio, Pat Luciano, Louis Sodano, and Lyman Whitney. They leave behind them a team which expects to win many of the games lt lost fhl5 ear. Y The Freshmen team, led by Coach john Francis, had similar fortunes to those of the Varsity team, winning no games but tying four. The team has sev- eral fine prospects for next year's Varsity, hoping to help in this way toward a winning season.

I X f , , f KW B SHETB LL From the beginning of the season, it was obvious that Madison had one of the best teams in its history. Several returning lettermen from last year gave the team its first victory over Passaic Valley in 5 years in the first game of the year. By Christmas vacation the team was unbeaten in five games, preparing with as many as three practices per day for the coming Conference games. Playing their finest game of the year, the Dodgers gained a lead of 20-2 against Sum- mit, coasting from there to an easy obliteration of the enemy. Their first loss was at Verona. From there the team entertained Millburn successfully. Caldwell, the eventual Conference winner, then won the first of its two two-point decisions. Soon Chatham, Glen Ridge, and Summit had succumbed in rapid order before the Dodgers turned the tables on Verona. After a repeat performance over Millburn, the team lost again to Caldwell. Before one of the largest audiences ever to watch a game in the Madison gym, the Dodgers turned in a fine win over a greatly im- proved Chatham team, following it up with a vic- tory over Clifford Scott. In the last game of the reg- ular season, Madison was upset in overtime by Glen Ridge, finishing in a tie for second place in the Sub- urban Conference with Verona. In the first round of the State Tournament, Mad- ison lost to Clifford Scott by 73-50. FIRST ROW: A. Springer, J. Sapio, L. Sodano, Coach Frank Stallings, P. Luciano, S. Auer, R. Polise.

I-Ie started with a great number of boys at Thanksgiving time, finally cutting the team down to about fifteen members. The team was hampered this year by the return of few lettermen from last year's team. The young team developed rapidly, however, and after losing the first game to Passaic Valley, Came back with a series of wins. Throughout the season the play of joe Sabatini, Carl Kreitler, Bruce Coultas, and Dave Thompson was outstanding, producing wins over fine teams like Dunellen, Caldwell, Glen Ridge, Summit, and others. The highlight of the season was the jay Vee's second win over Chatham, a pitiless mauling in which the team scored at will, being ahead by as much as forty points at a time. The whole team saw action, at nearly all times keeping pace with the ex- perienced Chatham team. The result of this fine season is that the Varsity team should continue to have as successful years in the future as they had this past season. FIRST ROW: Manager R. Waters, D. Thompson, B.

Its over-all sea- son record was five wins with only two setbacks. Coach Stallings, ably assisted by Coach DeArmott, led the team to a third place position in the Sub- urban Conference Meet. Later Madison placed seventh in Group II at the State Meet. Charles A gar and Bob Shepardson ran the 100 and 220 yardu dashes. Bob Balderston threw the jave- lin. Dick Konz and Tom Dusenberry ran the high and low hurdles. Art Thomas set a new half-mile record, while Craig Dickerson set a new record in the nile. Pete Limone, Gerome Gero, and Fred Kimple threw the shot put. The team set eight new records while taking many medals from the Conference, Newark, and State meets. The squad elected three captains: Bob Balderston, Dick Konz, and Charles Apgar. The Dodgers took a big step forward this year and hope to bring the Suburban Conference Championship to Madison in the future.

Carter Manager Stexc Plotz. When Coach john Bell called the first baseball practice, he found forty candidates trying out for the nine positions. After three cuts there remained six letter men and twelve players from the J. V. squad. The team worked hard preparing for the opener against Chatham. With George Ziler's fine pitching, supported by clutch hitting, Madison won. After whipping Verona in the first Suburban Conference game, the team went on to defeat Caldwell, the de- fending champions. Madison then proceeded to lose its Hrst game to Millburn by a small margin. Madi- son gained a new spark with successive victories over Summit and Glen Ridge, with Ziler and Ralph Polise pitching the two games respectively. With half the season behind them, the Dodgers suddenly took a nose dive, losing their next live en- counters. Determined not to be the victims of a losing season, the Dodgers practiced vigorously for the Chatham tilt, The contest was tense all the way, but with Ziler hurling his last varsity game, Madison emerged the victor, 6-5. The season can be recorded as a very successful one, despite the 6-6 record. There were six homeruns hit, and the team had one of the best batting aver- ages in a number of years. 51101 B SEB LL 1955 Chatham . . Glen Ridge Millburn .. Verona . . . Caldwell . . Summit . . .

Starting practice early, he had a large turnout from which to pick his team. After much deliberation he was able to assemble a strong team. The junior Dodgers started fast, easily beating Chatham, Glen Ridge, Millburn, and Verona in order. Then began their string of close defeats. Sum- mit, Chatham, and Caldwell all managed one-run wins over Madison. The season ended a winning one, however. Repeat wins were registered over both Glen Ridge and Millburn, with a later win over Caldwell. From this year's squad the Varsity of next year hopes to gain at least five or six players to produce a winning team. JU IUH VARSITY BASEB LL FIRST ROWLW, Wilkerson, B. Coultas, P. Falco, D.

Two practice matches with Morristown High were cancelled. After easily winning its first two matches against Caldwell and Summit, the team went to Verona, where it was upset by a surprising Verona team, hnally losing by the last set. Against Millburn the team played well but could not manage a victory, once again losing in the last set. Following the Millburn match, Madison overwhelmed Glen Ridge, Caldwell, Summit, and Verona by equal scores. Verona was beaten as thoroughly as any team. Glen Ridge next came back for more, this time managing to salvage one match before succumbing. In the last regular season match, the team lost again to Millburn, the eventual Conference champions. Its iinal standing was second place in the Con- ference. On May 27, Madison was represented in the New Jer- sey State Interscholastic Tournament at Princeton for the third straight year by a four-man team. In the first round, the Dodgers met Montclair High, winning by 2-1. The second round produced one of the closest matches of the tournament, Madison finally lost to Fairleigh Dickinson High of jersey City by 2-1. Dickinson easily swept to the finals from there, only to lose to Ridgwood. The high spot of the season was the play of Ron Smith, the team's first singles player. Ron won all ten of his Con- ference matches and both matches at Princeton, thereby re- taining Madison's claim to having the best tennis player of the Suburban Conference.
