THE EDITORS. nil CONTENTS THE COLLEGE FACULTY CLASSES ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS CAMPUS DEDICATION To Phil D. Collins for his understanding guidance of the class of 1935, for his very effective direction of journalism in this college, and for his active in- terest in college affairs, we, the board of editors, dedicate LA CAMPANA, 1935. Phil D. Collins Beneath the Jersey skies of blue In Montclair ' s mountain town, There stands our college, tried and true And growing in renown. We love thy campus, love thy halls, And oft to thee we raise With loyal lips and loyal hearts United songs of praise. Alma Mater Chorus: — All hail, all hail Montclair! To thee our voices raise, Alma Mater, dear Montclair, Our undying hymn of praise. We love thy colors, dear Montclair, The scarlet and the white. May they forever help us dare To choose and do the right. And though In after years our fate May lead us far apart. Nor time nor space may separate The ties that bind the heart. E. HOCH III The charm of Russ Hall was derived ♦rom its out-of-schooi aclivHies as well as its beautifully symmetiic architeclufe. for there were dances, conversations on the porch, club meetings, ban- quets and rinally, Commencement, held in iti -loved atmosphere. Chapin from Russ And i it was not Russ, it was Chapm where there were dances or meetings, with a constant going back and -forth between these two dormi- tories, and the attractive contrast of their two interiors. Perhaps there was a test, and you gazed from muddled thoughts out of the west windows toward Chapin Hall, and the purpling amphitheatre of hills far beyond; then you take a long deep breath and feel somewhat better. Entrance Drive Then the sloping banlts as you walk up the stone steps . . . the sense of reaching higher and higher. The three long low buildings giving you an impres- sion of strength . . . and comfort. ' nS ,v 1 V This IS the College as it will be remembered: seen on a sun-clear morning when the blue sly baclted the red roofs, the towered walls of white fronted by fir trees ... or as the choir sang ALL HAIL, ALL HAIL, MONTCLAIRI that last late afternoon in June. Just dash across the brick wall, pull open the door with a gasp, and slide into the classroom two minutes late . . . and then you ' ll know that distance does not lend enchantment to this view of the Administration Building.

ADAMS George came from Syracuse University to Montclair in his junior year. He ' s sandy-haired, freckled and rather quiet. When he has something to say, it ' s interesting, and when he has something to do, he does It well, quickly and without any fuss. LEONORA ALBIGESE We think Leonora the most unusual looking girl on the campus. hHer achievements here have been equally dis- tinctive. She served as secretary of Aphesteon, Mathe- matics Club, and our Junior Class, she was chairman of the Science Club social committee, participated In ath- letics and belonged to Contemporary and Commuters clubs in addition. ANNE M. ANDERSON Anne, of the beautiful red hair, has a dignity which is hard to shoke. Once in Chapin, however, she throws It off. Her serious self has associated itself with secretary- ship of Contemporary Club, Publicity work, Psychology and International Relations clubs, Esotericon and Clio. i 31 ► DAVID T. ARMSTRONG He is always going or coming from some work, clerical, stenographic, or pedagogical; but we ' ve gradually got to know and like this Senator and Aldornian, despite his reputation for efficiency. Then too, Dave has curly hair and a suspiciously Scottish burr. ERNESTINE E. ARNOLD There Is a certain charm and stability about Ernestine which is very restful. While everyone else Is busy speed- ing nowhere in particular, she Is busy accomplishing things. She is always busy, but not so much so that she hasn ' t time for whatever fun Is going on around her. FLORENCE E. BAAS Her floormates say Florence has a rare singing voice, a fear of mice, a typewriter, a convenient clock, and, a lamp that falls In the night. The Quarterly Is Indebted to Florence for her beautiful poetry, and the Art Club for her paintings, while Adornia and the Pelican have found in her an interested worker. 32 ► RUTH BABCOCK ' R. B. is our idea of a sportswoman. Good looking sports clothes, genial nature, — even her collection of ele- phants are proof. Efficiency has marked a successful career for her as business manager of the Pelican, vice- president of the Senior Class and member of Kappa Delta Pi. ANNA BAHNY Anna returned to us this fall from France, where she studied last year. There is something distinctive about these over-seas students and Anna has it, toT. We call it versatility. Her Montclair activities have been French Club, of course, Esotericon, International Re ' ations and Opera Study clubs, and volley ball. LOUISE BARNHART Louise spenas mucn ot ner time around the gym, hitting a volley ball, playing basketball, or practicing with the Dance Club. Other times, since she ' s a mathematics major, you hear her figuring out how to work a slide rule with Agnes Zofay, Rose Broder, or some more of the math gang. i 33 DOROTHY BARR Outstanding among Montclair ' s unobserved rules_ is the silence in the library admonition. And majoring in the dead and dignified field of Latin doesn ' t pre- vent Dot from being an outstanding giggler— usually in the aforementioned library. But though she may giggle, she is an important member of the Classical Club. DOROTHY E. BEECK Don ' t be fooled by Dot ' s scholarly appearance, for it ' s a mere camouflage. She is less interestd in marks than m remarks — she knows all the answers, and most of the questions, too. Her greatest ambition is to be able to witness all the big football games, although she can yell herself hoarse at smaller ones. DORIS E. BERSTLER Here is one of our favorite seniors: Doris, of the elfin haircomb; Doris, a Student Council vice-president who really accomplished something; Doris, third ranking in women ' s tennis and on the hockey and basketball_ teams; Doris, one of the best dancers In school; Doris, liked by everyone who knows her. 34 RAYMONDE H. BOERI If you hear a sudden indescribable outburst, don ' t be frightened — Ray ' s found something else that ' s funny. Her more serious interests are tennis, and bungalows. As witness of the first, we mention her standing as second women ' s tennis player. For the second — well, ask Ray. CARL K. BOMBERGER Carl ' s poetry has been one of the Quarterly ' s high spots; as C. K. B. he has enlivened the Pelican feature page; as secretary of Aldornia, he has contributed the most interesting minutes we ' ve ever heard. He was historian of the Choir, chairman of Creative Writing Club, on the Quarterly staff, and literary editor of La Campana. MARGARET D. BOTT Margaret ' s major subject is Social Studies and her extra-curricular activities have been largely in this field. She was admitted to Clio in her sophomore year and has been one of its most active members. International Relations Club also has engaged her attention. i 35 ' ' ELEANORE F. BRADY El, the little red-head with the infectious giggle, does more than most other people ever think of doing. She has been elected to Aldornia, Kappa Delta Pi, plays a beautiful game of hockey, was assistant editor of the Pelican, and contributes to Esotericon, Commuters Club, and International Relations Club. ATTILIO A. BROCCOLETTI Salem College ' s loss was Montclair ' s gain when Broc decided to come up here to study. hHe is an all around athlete and ladies ' man. Broc is a star basketball player and first baseman, and the Men ' s A. A., the Italian Club and Agora have in him a valuable member. ROSE BRODER Rose is one Mathematics major with definite inclina- tions toward certain phases of the English department. Athletics too, have kept her busy: volley ball, team tennis, and dancing. She was chairman of last year ' s highly successful Kiddie Party and section chairman of Commuters Club. 36 MARION BROKAW Marion transferred 1-o Montclair from New Jersey College for Women whe re she was ouhfanding in archery and golf. Here she has turned to more scholastic inter- ests and has divided her extra-curricular time between Mathematics and Commuters clubs. And she really doesn ' t miss the New Brunswick campus. DAVID BUCHAREST Dave has attained literary and conversational distinc- tions. One of his poems, based on Millet ' s The Sower, was successfully dramatized before a Newark school audience. He has been very active on the Quarterly, and will anyone ever forget his impressive Launcelat In The Great Good King? BERNICE BULETTE Bernice is the giri who writes such lovely poetry for the Quarterly. She also wrote that memorable letter to the Pelican describing moon-drenched, romantic nights on shipboard when she was en route to France last year. Founder of Phrontisterion, she also belonged to the Glee Club, French and Creative Writing clubs. i 37 i MARIE T. CAHILL Marie ' s one of the most ambitious co-eds at M. S. T. C. It ' s common knowledge that her term papers are masterpieces and her notebooks works of art. hier co- workers on the Publicity Staff know that she has thrown herself into that work as whole-heartedly as she has participated in German Club festivals and meetings. ANNE E. CAMERON Although Anne ' s name sounds thoroughly American, her chief interests are Spanish. She has served on Spanish Club committees and as treasurer of that organization, besides concocting strange but delicious foods from Spanish recipes. She was one of the charter members of the Dance Club and has been busy in Psychology Club and Esotericon. BERTHA CAVIOR Here ' s another one of those people who keep proving that Peterson ' s not so bad. Bertha will always be remem- bered as the young lady who never failed to give one of the outstanding reports of the term in English classes. Phi Sigma Mu counts her among its most clever members. 38 ROSE C. CHANKALIAN Rose is the giri who supplies us with all the informa- tion about Springfield College. She has one of the best senses of hunnor of which we have ever known, but keeps it for the edification of friends. She has been active in Mathematics and Commuters clubs. ELIZABETH D. CHAPMAN Psychology tags Betty — she talks, thinks and lives it, and yes, really applies it. There is never a dull moment when Betty is present for she can always be found holding forth on any and every subject. We wonder if she is really serious about liking Iceland? MARY E. COEN Mary spent her first two years at St. Elizabeth College where she did outstanding work in music, dramatics and athletics. Here she quickly made a place for horse in our hearts and in our clubs: i. e. Esotericon, League ■ Women Voters, Commuters and Glee dubs. i 39 LOUIS J. COHEN Louis is a mixture of seriousness and cheerfulness, with an underlying yet predominant sincerity. He managed the tennis team very successfully, as he does everything — whether it be as secretary of Science Club, Photog- raphy Editor of La Campana, or member of the Dramatic Club. HARRIET CONKLIN Harriet spent last year at Aix-en Provence and fur- nished most enthusiastic reports of it to all interested French students. This year she presidented the French Club as well as continuing her membership in Latin, Ger- man and Glee clubs. This linguist is also interested in volley ball, orchestra and Esoterlcon. EVELYN C. COOK Cookie is the little girl who went west one summer and never got over it — she still warbles I ' m Heading for the Last Round-Up with variations that are uniquely her own. But when Cookie isn ' t singing or contributing to Mrs. Maxwell ' s headaches, she is very serious and does an astounding amount of math. 0 i i k. A. GOLDIE N. CORN Goldle ' s just another devotee of the beauty of classic literature, as well as English. A very large number of people come to us from Paterson, but if they contributed as much as she has to collegiate life here, we should be soliciting more. Best of luck, Goldie. DANIEL CRYSTAL Dan is a distinct personality. He is one of our best students, but knows the gentle art of wasting time. He is a rather likable mixture of naivete and worldly wisdom, can be serenely philosophical, or can buttonhole argu- mentlve friends In a heartless manner, and keeps Rohwec meetings lively. MILDRED A. DANIEL Mildred is relatively new arouna rnoso pcirts. In her Junior year she came to Montclair from, way out in Val- pariso, Indiana. There, honors w-r,, n-. ' iw-H imnn ner In sports and dramatics. Sine- interests have turned to choir ano outstanding in both. Ol ► LOREN DAVIS Loren is our rugged individualisi- in the better sense of the word, having founded the International Relations club, and won the presidency of both Kappa Delta Pi and the Senior class, hie is one of our best actors, and gets away with things none of us would attempt because of his very evident sincerity. ATTILIO DE GENNARO We give you Tillie — a smooth dancer who introduces all the new steps we see around here; an artist, who makes those attractive posters; the possessor of a line which is a line. Besides his interest in science, he is a member of Agora and active in discussions of politics, economic problems and practically anything. ALICE M. DEGNAN Alice is another of our demoiselles who adds her bit to the glamorous tales of France. The undergraduates will remember her however, for her enthusiastic love of the sea and — boats — and her ardent participation in five o ' clock tea at all hours, with or without tea! It ' s an old French custom, we are told. 42 NELLA DE GROOT Admirers of Nella ' s distinctive handwriting say it, in itself, justifies her vice-presidency of Artsmen. One of her hobbies is drawing: occupations include working in the library, worrying about the report she should have done last week, wearing a gold basketball and objecting to being called Nellie. CLIFFORD DE MICHELE A transfer from Rutgers, Cliff deserted pharmacy for teaching. In his two years here he has made a great many friends — both male and female — for who can resist that de Michele personality — even with all its moods. Cliff is also one of our football players and helped to make our Junior Play a success. RUTH ELEANOR DOBSON Ruth has a special propensity for asking very pertinent questions at exactly the right times. Her soto voice remarks, which are always forthcoming, are equally appro- priate and always most enjoyable. She has participated in many English Club activities. i 43 WILLIAM DUNN Billy has starred in basketball, and Is another musical math major, being a good trumpeter. Evie also har- monizes well with him, and they make up one of the most popular campus couples. He was an efficient secretary of Agora and Is remembered for his outstanding minutes. RUTH EARLEY Ruth gives the most interesting reports we ' ve ever heard — every time she Is scheduled to speak, we ' re sure to be In class. She never makes much fuss about any- thing but always does everything she ' s expected to on or ahead of time. And her whispered remarks are pertinent and laugh-provoking, ELSIE EBNER Just glance over this list and then marvel with us how Elsie could do It all and yet remain always well-groomed and smiling: vice-president of Aldornia, Kappa Delta Pi, Pelican and Publicity staffs, vice-president of Esoterlcon, on committees for Football and Senior Alumni dances — we haven ' t space for anything more! 44 LAURA M. EDWARDS Attractive person, attractive personality: result — Larry, one of the May Queen ' s attendants. Also Larry, dancing well socially and in Dance Club recitals: slowly writing Pelican feature stories; hunting frogs, arranging her hair in piquant fashion; wrinkling her nose at pals who dare to call her chubby. MARGARET EGGERDING Peg has made herself an infegral part of our campus life, quietly and unobtrusively but none the less surely. The dormitory girls depend on her. Science club officers and instructors know she will accomplish anything they need in the way of reports and committee work. HELEN C. ERLACH Helen is one of the French majors who went all the way to Europe last year to study. Her interests run along the line of Dramatics and he who hasn ' t seen her in any of the French club plays has certainly missed some very fine performances. i 45 J ' ' 06 VERONICA D. FECZKO Ronnie does many things and does them all well. She was elected to Rohwec and served on its program com- mittee; she was secretary of Clio, vice-president of the Contemporary Club and on the Junior Class social com- mittee. What ' s more, she has a lovely voice and sang in Choir and Glee Club. MARY FEIND Mary — our favorite synonym for triumph. She made Aidornia and Kappa Delta Pi and served as editor-in- chief of La Campana With equal ease and charm. She was the loveliest Angelus of all the Nativity Plays and is a firm ally of the English Department. WILLIAM J. FILAS Although in the football pictures he stands in the back- ground, Bill proved his worth as manager of the Mountain- eers. He is adept at playing the violin, and his more scholarly interests are mathematics and science. In the words of a certain feminine admirer, he ' s a good kid. JAMES J. FINNEGAN You have to get to know quiet Jimmy to find out what a good friend he is. He is one of those fortunate individ- uals who wear well with all kinds of people. For those superintendents who are looking for a fine baseball coach, a conscientious worker, here ' s your man. MARY FLANAGAN She ' s black-haired, blue-eyed, tail story champion, a braver of lions, one of the cleverest of our class wits — we suspect an Irish ancestor. The Pelican and Publicity staffs will miss Mary ' s leadership; instructors will miss her frankness; we ' ll all miss her because she ' s loads of fun. BENJAMIN FLEXSER Ben is an athlete with sociological proclivities and journalistic intent. Football, basketball, and baseball have been his sports, Rohwec and International Relations Club his scholastic interests and Pelican work his literary ex- Eiression. Aside from these. Men ' s A. A. activities have ept him busy. 447 ► AARON FRANZBLAU We might call Aaron a philosopher, but if we at- tempted to tag him to any theory, he could disprove it without trying. He Is president of the Philosophy club, a member of Aidornia, and has impressed us by his sincerity of argument, which is whole-hearted and force- ful on any side of any question. HELEN M. GAAL Anyone who has been in a German class with hielen will remember the folk dances which she brought back from Germany, where she studied last year. At Montclair she has been interested in activities of Kappa Delta Pi, French, German and Psychology. MICHAEL F. GATTI Mike ' s the ge ' mman with the mustache and the debonair air. As manager, he selected the right teams to oppose this year ' s football machine. As a historian, he ' s made Rohwec; as a student, he ' s made Kappa Dela Pi; as a mathematician, he has been class treasurer; as a ladies ' man, he ' s been a huge success. 48 JOHN GIBBA Montclair Is Johnny ' s third Alma Mater but he seems to belong as definitely as do the buildings. We found him invaluable — as sports editor of the Pelican, athlete (basketball and baseball), actor [Dramatic Club plays), musician (Orchestra), and a good sport and grand pal. SYLVIA H. GLASSER Sylvia is primarily a musician although Mathematics, her major, absorbs much of her time. She was elected to Pro Musica as a result of her fine work in the Orches- tra, Glee Club and Opera Study Club, while the academic side of her interests is in Mathematics Club and Psychology Club activities. PAUL GOLDBERG Paul ' s an ex-sports ' editor of the Pelican, a tennis player supreme, a basketball player, and a smooth dancer. Besides that, he ' s got the kind of determination that ' s gotten him A ' s and praise. Favorite flower: Rose. And he gives those model reports which we ail remember. i sy JOHN S. GORDON One of the three or four outstanding musicians in the school, John expresses himself forcefully on the piano and in words as well. He accompanied the orchestra, and contributed toward the Senate programs, musically and conversationally and vehicle-ly speaking. He knows his theology, too. ABRAHAM GORTZ From the University of Virginia to Montclair may be a long jump but Abe made it, in an efficient, thoroughly northern way and left his southern characteristics — - accent and all — behind him. Here, he made the basket- ball team and made himself an integral member of our class. MILTON L GOTTLIEB A flood of stories about Montclair teams inundated Newark, Paterson, and Passaic papers this fall. Most of them were Milt ' s work as Publicity Sports Editor. Milt ' s list also includes: Alumni editor of the Pelican, manager of the baseball team, and promulgator of Montclalr ' s Twenty-fifth Anniversary celebration. 50 LOUISE M. GREENE Louise gets away with that cute blonde hair cut as no one else could. This girl who came to us from Radcliffe is quiet and unassuming yet always friendly and interested. We wonder why Louise confines her excellent dramatic abilities to her local dramatic club Instead of letting our school organization profit by them. BEATRICE GROSS Look at Beatrice ' s face — then her name, — right, she ' s German! Which in itself justifies her treasurership, vice-presidency and presidency of German Club. But she is by no means only a linguist. She played basket- bail, hockey and tennis, was on the Pelican staff and a member of several clubs. DOROTHY GURKIN Dottie came to us tr m Brenan College, Georgia, with- out a trace of a southern accent. She was elected to Rohwec and spends most of her on-campus time in com- pany of other sociologically minded Montclairites. If she were distinctive fir nothing e ' se, we wou!d always remem- ber her variety of coiffures. i 51 V RUTH R. HABEL As a member of the Math Club, Science Club, and Psychology Club, Ruth participates in activities In the fields that she enjoys most. A quiet girl and a willing worker, she is a good friend to those who know her, for the value of her friendship is more fully appreciated with continued association. NAOMI HAIM Naomi went to Upsala College during her freshman and sophomore years but managed to bridge the tradi- tional gap very successfully. She has been too busy acclaiming herself here to continue with the musical talents which she displayed at Upsala, but we ' ve heard that she sings and plays very well. KATHRYN HAINES Kay is always busy doing something the rest of us have forgotten about. She Is a constant source of joy since she always finds something funny in every situation. Despite her faculty of falling asleep at the wrong time, she is really a very wide awake and thoroughly alive person. 52K ELLA HANSEN Ella is one of our foremost artists, and was one of the first members of Artsmen. She came to Montclair from Pratt Institute and has, in her two years here, been active in Glee Club, League of Women Voters, and Psychology Club. Whenever you want to find her, just look for Betty. CHARLOHE HARRISON Add to Charlotte ' s quiet and unassuming personality, her maturity expressed in unique attitudes toward life and you find a person who is the guiding force behind many things. Charlotte was editor of the Pelican, editor of Publicity, business manager of the Quarterly, and a member of Aldornia. ETHEL F. HARRISON Ethel is the best sport we have ever known. If that s not enough to recommend her, we cite her secretaryship of Debating League and Edward Russ Hall, her member- ship in Science and Mathematics Clubs, her participation in nockey and basketball and her many friends. i 53 MADELYN F. HART Madelyn is a quiet unassuming person who says little, thinks much, makes prodigious notebooks, and always knows the right answer. hHer activites here included: Aldornia, Administration Editor of the Publicity Staff, International Relations, Contemporary, and Psychology Clubs. JOHN H. HINDLE John is first and foremost a mathematician; he is a member of Aphesteon and treasurer of Kappa Delta Pi. However, his versatality has been apparent in his interest in dramatics, his membership in the College Choir, and his place on our class ' Junior social com- mittee. EDNA G. HITCHCOCK Edna is so reserved that we find it hard to realize that she has done so much. She received her M in sports, was treasurer of our Sophomore Class, secretary and librarian of the Glee Club, president of Mathematics Club and in her spare time, made Aphesteon and Kappa Delta Pi. 54 ALEXANDER S. HUGHES, JR. Synonymous with Monin (by which name the Senoritas called him during his year at the University of Madrid) are the words — actor, athlete and linguist. He was splen- did in the Junior Play and his was the first May Day Crown. Kappa Delta Pi and Senate have claimed him, while the Spanish Club chose him as its president. ELIZABETH S. HUKILL Betty is responsible for some of the loveliest covers and illustrations of the Quarterly. She is president of Artsmen and managed that beautiful exhibition last year. The art work in La Campana is hers, as Art Editor. She is musical as well, and sanq in choir. EDITH M. JAKOBSEN Scholastically, she made Aphesteon and Kappa Delta Pi, athletically, she was a member of the Women ' s A. A. and hockey, basketball, baseball, and volley-ball teams; executively, she served as vice-president of our Sopho- more class and as a member of the Student Council. i 55 MARGARET D. JANSSON Marge helps make up the smoothest dancing couple at Montclair. Everything which she does carries the same air of finesse — whether it be her treasurership of the Glee Club, librarianship of Mathematic Club, service on Exotericon ' s nominating committee or membership in Psychology Club. EDITH JESSEN Edith — tall, blonde, very good-loDkIng — splendid dancer outstanding athlete (baseball, basketball and volleyball teams), executive (treasurer of our Junior Class and of Edward Russ hiall and vice-president of Psychology Club), musician (member of Glee Club and double quartette) and a thoroughly charming person. DOROTHY A. JOHNSON Dot is one of the most popular girls at school — and de- servedly so. She combines an executive ability (President of Science Club, treasurer of Dance Club) with an interest in many things (Mathematics Club, volleyball. League of Women Voters) and goes about everything in the same unruffled and very charming manner. 56 MAY G. KAMACK The list of May ' s afhietic achievements reads like a catalogue of women ' s sports — she played on the hockey, baseball and basketball teams, won bars In all of them. She did many other things connected with Contemporary, Mathematics, International Relations, and Glee Clubs, League of Women Voters and Esoterlcon. BENJAMIN KATZ Ben ' s our finest musician — iir i violin and president of the orchestra, member of the String trio and String quar- tette, and president of Pro Musica. Another side of him is the scientist. He ' s also played Intra-mural basketball. Result, — an all-round fellow and a swell guy. MIRIAM KATZ She ' s a musician — she accompanied the Dance Club, was secretary of Pro Musica; she ' s a student — secretary of Kappa Delta Pi; she ' s a linguist — secretary and presi dent of Classical Club and chairman of Foreign Language Dance Recital; interested and active In too many other things far us to mention here. 57 ROBERT M. KIRSCH Apt at fencing both with words and swords, Bob started and coached the college and high school fencing teams with the latter weapons, hie canne to us in his junior year from the University of Texas, here following his interests in science and psychology. IDA M. KRUS Ida has received the highest honor possible for a mathematics major — she was elected to Aphesteon and was on its executive council. Further mathematical rec- ognition came to her as treasurer of the Mathematics Club. She has played on volley ball teams and served on the social committee of the Science Club. CATHERINE M. LACEY Kay is one of our very smallest, yet most versatile seniors. She can do any and every dance step or stand in front of a class and give a report with the ease and skill of a professional. She usually wears blue, and so would we If we had her eyes. i 58 THOMAS P. LEAVY First as a varsity debater, later as a president of the International Relations Club, Tom merited his rise by sincere scholarship and a considerateness of his fellow- students. His opinions have enlivened both the Pelican and the Quarterly, and his membership in Kappa Delta Pi has been active and interested. GEORGE T. LEES George, alias Whitey, is fhaf decidedly blonde young man who has distinguished himself in athletic circles as a member of the varsity football squad, the intermural baseball and basketball teams, and the Men ' s A. C. He served as secretary of Agora and has graced all Mont- clair ' s social functions. SYLVIA LEVINSKY Sylvia is the girl who thrilled us all with her really beau- tiful interpretations in Dance Club recitals. She has been an active member of that organization since its inception and served as its treasurer and president. Her other awards have been largely along athletic lines, including numerals in hockey, basketball and baseball. i 59 ► EDITH C. LIST Putty, (she ' s always puttering around) is most enthus- iastic — she even got so enthused about elections for The League of Women Voters, that she went to vote on the wrong day. Putt is the professor ' s delight as she always has a pertinent contribution when the rest of the class is slumbering. ADELE W. LIVINGSTONE She ' s small, she ' s very quiet, she ' s blonde — and her chief interest is science — indeed, it ' s both her major and minor! To complete her contradictions, she sings in the Glee Club and is interested in Psychology club activities. The rest of her time is spent at Science and Commuters ' Club meetings. ROSE F. LA BUE She ' s all that ' s demure and sweet, and what is more, these characteristics extend far beneath the surface. Her chief interests lie in the field of English, but she has shown her versatility in Italian Club activities, baseball, and social functions. V e still remember that smooth- running Freshman Formal. 60 MILDRED J. LOTZ Mildred is another of those unbelievably versatile peo- ple. Consider her vice-presidency of Opera Study Club, chairmanship of Classical Club refreshment committeee, position on the Quarterly staff, membership in Esotericon, League of Women Voters, Commuter and Glee clubs. We wonder how she does it. MARTHA M. LYNN Another feminine invader of that manly realm of mathematics is this dark-eyed, dark-haired, curly headed miss from Bogota. Her studious habits and scholarly earnestness have placed her high in the esteem of both her student acquaintances and the faculty members. ALLAN W. MAC DONALD A transfer trom Calltornio, th.s mcithematlcs-sclence student spends much of his time around the zoology lab. At Humboldt S. T. C, which he formerly attended, music was one of his main interests. Here he ' s known as that tail quiet fellow who looks like a graduate student and drives a car. i 61 V JEAN MACNAUGHTON One of our most sophisticated seniors, Jean is tall, slim and dark, and a success at being glamorous both on and off the stage. She always manages an A while the rest of us sit and admire. That accounts for her being elected to Kappa Delta Pi. ELIZABETH J. MARTIN Elizabeth Is the girl with the glorious red-gold hair. Were this her only claim to recognition, no Montclairite could ever forget her. But she has identifid herself in our minds with other things: Publicity staff, Esotericon, volley ball, tennis, Spanish, Commuters and Opera Study clubs. JOSEPH J. MASIELLO Joe has been an A-rate student and a first-rate fellow, peppy, dark, sociable. He was an exchange student to Spain, is a member of Kappa Delta Pi, one of the main- stays of the Language department, a member of Agora, circulation manager of the Pelican, and manager of baseball. 62 - S? -i CARL L. MATTHEWS Carl came to Montclair from St. Lawrence University during his junior year, and made his presence felt immedi- ately, though quietly. He has spurred up many a class discussion, and, for that matter, sundry feminine pulses. And he Is a most efficient cutter of cardboard boxes. ELEANOR H. MAURER Ellie, our favorite comic actress (remember her as Jenny in Three-Cornered Moon? ): Ellie, our most responsible newspaper woman (news editor and editor- in-chief of the Pelican): Ellie, one of our best dressers (remember the 1934 Hallowe ' en party?): Ellie, our chief joy In life. ANNE R. MAZEIKA Those who saw Anne as Nirry in Three-Cornered Moon know what a splendid piece of acting she did, as that empty-headed personality which is just about the opposite to Anne ' s own. Another devotee of natural dancing, she neverfheless always finds time to do extra work in all her classes. i 63 ELLEN s. McDonald That pretty girl, attendant on May Day, who debates with Westerveit, Monprode, Mr. Hatch or anyone in sight, has been class secretary, Pelican Alumni editor, vice-pres- ident of Clio, and gets all A ' s from Dr. Gage. She con- vulses listeners with incredible stories and contributes witty remarks to sleepy classes. JOSEPHINE E. McKEEBY Jo — first c ' ass musician, mathematician, and student She can play anything by ear on any instrument: piano, violin, or bass drum. Naturally she belongs to the or- chestra, band, and glee club. As mathematician, she was elected to Aphesteon; as a student, she made Kappa Delta PI. MARIAN E. McLaughlin As Fire Chief of Chapin, Marian rivalled Ed Wynn. and who can picture Marian without that contagious baby geyser laugh of hers. She has been interested in sporf-s, in Publicity, in Opera Study, International Rela- tions, Psychology, Newman, Contemporary, English, and Math clubs. 64 LOUISE MESSING She never studies — yet made Aldornia and Kappa Delta PI; she ' s no musician — yet in the choir and band; she says she has no executive ability — yet was successful as president of Dramatic Club, Personals editor of La Campana and news editor of Publicity. As some one once said: She ' s Chapin ' s enigma — and then some! MADELINE D. MESSNER Madeline, according to her classmates, always has her work in ahead of time and it ' s always longer — than any- one ' s else. Not content with this record, she takes extra Mathematics courses and is active in Mathematics club work. For relaxation, she plays volley ball, baseball and belongs to several clubs. ELEANOR S. MEYER El is the one who came to us, a little ray of sunshine in her freshman year, but who learned to weep beauti- fuly as any one who saw Playgoers can tell you. Aside from her dramatic ability. El leans to fine lesson plans, ex- cellent notebooks, and lengthy letters to a certain Scotchman. i 65 i BEULAH S. MILLER Beulah is that lovely and attractive girl who spends most of her time off campus. For the first three years, Manhattan received most of her visits but now she com- mutes to Jersey City. While on campus, she is usually doing something connected with French, in which lan- guage she makes up for her usual quietness. 66 GLORIA G. MILLER Gloria Is a little girl with a big smile, extraordinary efficiency, an unruffled disposition in the face of all cir- cumstances, and a very charming personality, hler inter- ests are mainly classical and psychological. S he has also been busy with Kappa Delta PI activities and as president of the League of Women Voters. RUTH L MILLER Who will ever forget Ruth — as Mrs. Rimplegar in Three Cornered Moon; as Choir soloist; as a fine artist con- tributing to the Quarterly and Artsmen exhibit; as a contributor to Pro Musica; as the author of excellent term papers; as one of our most popular girls? MARY I. MONAHAN Mary is a versafile girl, interested in English, Mathe- matics, athletics, and her school work. She is a member of Esotericon and the Mathematics Club; played volley ball, basketball and baseball; and is always at the top of the class in any and every subject which she studies. WILLIAM MONPRODE Bill has been working hard all through college, hie was elected to Rohwec and Kappa Delta Pi, which shows he is a student; he was fine in the freshman, sophomore and junior plays, which shows he ' s an actor; and he plays football which shows that he is really what he says he is, — ■ Just a big brute! PATRICIA MURRAY A charming and winning personality characterize our Pat. Pat ' s linguistic ability was augmented by a year ' s study in France. An active participation in many campus activities have made her a valuable asset to Montclalr. Of course, we must not forget to mention that Pat is a member of Kappa Delta Pi. i 67 i EMILY E. O ' MALLEY No committee is complete without Emmie, whose per- sonality can make a success of any venture. Emily was our May Queen and a very lovely one as she presided with that ' big smile of hers which everyone knows and loves so well. MILDRED ORGEL The watchword of the College Choir is Where ' s Millie Orgel? and it brings to mind Millie ' s antics on all choir trips. She is one of those people who always find time to help anybody out of any predicament and never has anything to do. hiere ' s to you, Millie! MARIE A. OSBORNE We asked her friends about Marie and the consensus of opinion was simply, She ' s a swell kid. We add to this — she was president of Contemporary Clubs, was treas- urer of the Newman Club and belonged to Phrontisterion, Clio, Psychology, International Relations and Contempo- rary clubs. 68 HELEN M. OWENS Pat is the most delightfully Irish person around here. She has done lots of things — sang with the Glee Club, arched, been active in Esotericon and Exotericon, Psychoology Club, and Contemporary Club, and will always be remembered as the chairman of Russ in her junior year. ESTHER PACHELLA A transfer from Paterson Normal, Esther acts like a native of Montclair. Perhaps her close association with the Social Studies department has something to do with this easy acclimatization. She ' s small .she ' s dark and wears her good-locking clothes as smartly as anyone in our class. WILBUR C. PARLlN iAN The credit for the success of class activities in our Junior year may be laid at Bill ' s feet, for he served as our president that year and in addition acted as a mem- ber of the Student Council. Bill has spent the rest of his time in Math Club, Science Club, Agora, Men ' s A. A., and athletic and social activities. i 69 nil HOWARD PHILLIPI Howard is first and foremost a hard worker — how he ' s managed to do all the work in school and out, and be the scientist he is, is beyond us. hie ' s also had time to be president of the Psychology Club, star-gaze in free minutes with his home-made telescope, and play the violin in the orchestra. EDWIN PHILLIPS Here Is one contemporary financial genius who is still in good repute! Ed was treasurer of the Student Coun- cil in 1933-34, was business manager and is a leading tenor in the choir, and is a member of Agora. Although from the backwoods, he is anything but a hick! 70 WILKINS R. POWELL Hall to our May King! But this royalty ' s life has not been entirely one of leisure. On the contrary, he has held an important berth on the varsity football team. His in- terest in athletics has also given him a place on the class basketball team and membership In the Men ' s A. A. ROWENA C. PRAY Rowena came to us as a third year student from Wheaton College where she had shown a great interest In languages. Nor did that interest diminish during her stay at M. S. T. C. She studied in France for a year and while here, participated actively in French, Spanish and Italian activities. DOROTHY RAND hHail this firm supporfer of psychology! Dorothy ' s work in this department, combined with English and Social Studies keep her very busy. Why she even put the Roman emperors on the psychological spot. With Nero, the Emperor with the Narcissistic Complex, which was so enthusiastically reviewed in the Pelican. MARTHA B. REID Motz — a small bit — uur wiin ci Ircniendous capacity for doing things. Kappa Delta Pi, Glee Club, Contem- porary Club, League of Women Voters, Science Club, Esotericon, and La Campana have profited by her par- ticipation. But the accomplishment nearest to her heart is tne fraternity pin that she wears. 71 EVELYN A. RIEGER Has anybody ever seen Evie when she wasn ' t smiling? For such a small, cheerful person, she has done an aston- ishing number of things: women ' s tennis champion and what a game she plays!; chairman of May Day and attendant on that occasion; Student Council represen- tative; one of the most attractive co-eds in our class. VIVIEN M. ROEGNER It would be impossible to put Viv into any paragraph of fifty words or more. Suffice it to say she presldented Aldornia, vice-presidented Kappa Delta Pi, editor-in- chiefed The Quarterly, has a grand sense of humor, a lovely whistle, and likes blue neckties. NELLIE C. ROOZE Nellie is a really good sport besides being one of our most active co-eds. World affairs, American and for- eign, claimed most of her attention In Clio, League of Women Voters and International Relation clubs. h-ler journalistic talents were useful In Publicity work and she has belonged to Esotericon, Commuters ' and Opera Study clubs. 72 EVERDEEN ROZEMA Being German, she ' s a musician — or maybe it ' s the other way around. Anyway, she ' s our most typical ■fraulein — studied in Vienna last year and plans to go back, and looks the part to pertectlon. She sang in the Choir and did solo work at concerts — local and away from Montclalr. BELLA SANDERS Whom did the junofb rubn during her year ' s stay at the University of Madrid? Why, La Bella, of course, and haven ' t all of us heard of her interesting experi- ences? Evidences of her efficiency — she was secretary to Miss Holz, and is a member of Kappa Delta Pi. LEON P. SAPIR Lee is another of the social studies guard, but as polit- ically minded as he is, he is capable of enjoying Eliza- bethan lyrics as well. His is the wide smile and the happy what ' s-the-dlfference attitude we have tried unsuccessfully to Imitate. International affairs are his primary interest. i 73 MATHILDA SAVAGE The language department certainly has a remarkable student in Mathilda — quiet, unassuming and industrious. A year ' s study in France and membership in Kappa Delta PI are rewards for her efficient and scholarly work. Proof of her Interest in languages Is shown by her membership in the Latin, French and German clubs. 74 JEROME SCHLOSSER Jerry is an athlete, musician, journalist, and student, hie was a member of the Men ' s A. A. and played on intramural teams, he composed one of the prize winning football songs; he served in the Feature Staff of the Pelican; and was a member of Mathematics and Science Clubs. ALICE M. SCHMIDT Alice is the girl who always carries the load of books as big as herself. Few of us have had a chance to see the really beautiful girl behind the glasses, as Smitty never has time to take them off. Alice has two Rays of sunshine In her life — and one Is her fox terrier. DOROTHY A. SCHMITT Dot divides her time between the varsity basketball and hockey teams and two honorary societies. Not con- tent with membership In Aphesteon, the small exclusive honorary Mathematics Club, she also belongs to Kappa Delta Pi. In her spare time she sings in the Glee Club and acts as treasurer of the Women ' s A. A. JEROME R. SEHULSTER To say that Jerry is (I) a member of Agora (2) a mem- ber of the Men ' s A. A. (3) active in three Intra-mural activities (4) a tuneful banjolst (5) former president of Agora (6) member of the Science and Math clubs (7) one of the most popular seniors — but why go on — you get the idea. NELLIE SKOWRONSKA Nellie ' s membership in Aphesteon is sufficient proof of her high scholastic ability: her participation in volley ball and tap dancing are evidences of her athletic inter- ests, and as her claims to versatility we offer the follow- ing list of activities: Commuters and Mathematics clubs and Esoterlcon. 75 EVELYN C. SLOAT Ev is one of our most outstanding women athletes. She has played on hockey, basketball, baseball, and volley ball teams and made a splendid record. She does her school and club work as conscientiously and well — whether it be in International Relations Club or Psychology Club. RUTH SNYDER Ruth spent her first two years at Paterson Normal where she was vice-president of the Psychology Club and took part in many plays. hHere she has been active in the Psychology Club, and has added music to her other interests, being a member of the Opera Study Club. ELSIE A. SPITZ Take a large part of German, a dash of athletics, a lively interest in music — result, Elsie — an active member of the German Club, on its committees and participating in the Christmas plays and festivals; a volley ball player who received bars for her playing; a member of Glee Club. 76 III MARIAN STARLING Marian is always taking care of someone — and doing a good job. She manages herself well, too, with poise and dignity, which are preserved in spite of her splendid sense of humor which she keeps for special occasions. She has a really lovely voice and sang in Choir and Glee Club. ELIZABETH L. STEWART Betty is one of our best dressed seniors. It was to her diligent and untiring efforts as Chairman of the Senior Alumni Dance, that we owe much of the success of a perfect evening. Betty was elected to Rohwec and Kappa Delta Pi, and is very active in both organizations. EDITH A. SUTHERLAND Small and quiet, Edith has a wealth ot power and speech in those fascinating eyes. We would know her better if we had more chance to see and talk with her, but Dick constantly monopolizes the time she doesn ' t spend in Kappa Delta Pi and Rohwec activities. 77 III HELEN B. THOBER Those with whom she ' s worked on props for different plays consider her the most dependable person they know; those who ' ve worked under her as general News editor of the Publicity Staff, Associate editor of La Campana and House Chairman of Chapin say she ' s grand to work for; her friends say — just hiel. ALBERT TRAUTH Al ' s vehicle may be a flower delivery truck but It cer- tainly serves a number of purposes — from pleasure auto to furniture truck, carrying scenery for Dramatic Club productions. And it was he who was responsible for the extensive floral decorations at the Junior-Senior Formal. JACK URDANS Jack, one of our outstanding athletes, has been men ' s tennis champion for four years, archery champion in his sophomore year, a varsity basketball player, and treasurer of the Men ' s A. C. He served as vice-president of Agora and of our Junior class. 78 TESSIE C. VARETONI Tessie was one of the members of the women ' s varsity basketball team which speaks eloquently for her athletic ability. Her friends talk mainly of her delightful sense of humor. Her activities testify to a variety of interests: Clio, Exotericon, Commuters, Italian and Newman Clubs. ETHEL A. VOGEL Ethel furnishes a new version for the old song about Piccolo Pete — her instrument is the piano-accordian and we ' ve never heard her equal on it. Not only is she a musician, but a dancer (have you noticed her in Dance Club recitals?), athlete (She swings a mean bat) and an efficient committee woman. HERMAN M. WARD Casanova — cheerful, phihsophical, witty, talentea. and uninhibited(!), he ' s had a glorious time of doing everything and settling down to work at just the right intervals. Think of what activities Herm should partic- ipate in. Of course: — Senate, Choir, Dramatic Club, Aldornia, Kappa Delta Pi, Pro Musica and Creative Writing Club. 79 RUTH E. WATERS Yes, that tall, dark, good-looking, perfectly groomed girl is Waters — athletic star (on the women ' s tennis, hockey, and baseball teams for four years, and on the Women ' s A. A. Council), songstress (the leading alto in the choir), active in class affairs (chairman of the Junior Play committee), a perfect friend. RICHARD E. WESTERVELT Westy, being a social studies major, belongs to Rohwec; and being an athlete, plays first-rate football and basketball. Being a mere man, he confesses to a weakness for short, pretty blondes — like Edie, for example. Being a teacher-to-be, watch the sparks fly when he dis- cusses teaching! CATHERINE C. WHITE Kay possesses everything that goes with personality — go:;d looking, a charming manner — and how she can dance! She also rates a special medal for not talking about her operation. Contemporary Club, League of Women Voters and Clio have kept her busy on the few occasions when she could find nothing to do. 80 EDITH E. WILSON Audiences ar College Choir concerts always marvel thai- such lovely, pure, solo notes should come from Edith ' s small throat. One of the best-dressed girls in our class, Polly also gave a charming performance in one of the title roles in The Princess and the Wood- cutter. WALLACE WINCHELL As poet and numorist, ne ' s made many brilliant con- tributions to The Quarterly and Pelican. Active?! — he ' s been in the Philosophy Club, Creative Writing Club, International Relations Club, was vice-president of his class and has rendered some witty minutes as secretary of the Senate. LILLIAN WITT Lillian is another girl with hobbies as varied as they are many. Being interested in English, she has belonged to both Exotericon and Esotericon. She has been active in the Debating Club and has sung with the Glee Club. Publicity work has kept her busy since it was first started at Montclair. 81 Ill HELEN M. ZIMMERMAN Helen spent a year at the University in Clermont-Fer- rand,, France and she returned to Montclair with more charm and personality than ever. Our loss through her graduation is great indeed and those who have heard her recount her experiences, and have worked with her in various activities, will substantiate our claim. AGNES ZOFAY Agnes is one of those rare people who make audibly clever remarks to both classmates and instructors and get away with it beautifully, hier scholarship, rating membership in Aphesteon, is probably one redeeming factor, as is her general friendliness and helpfulness to the Math crowd. 82 She did not want to come. She wanted to stay with them. They are warm, she said. I have been cold so long. They will be ashes soon enough. Come! Her feet walk reluctantly. hier eyes cup fear, fear brimming over. There is a tree. There is a tree spilling gold. I must stay with it, she said. It has sun, it has sun, and I have none of it! It will be dust not long from now. You must come. Her hands twist fearfully. Her mouth tastes bitterness, bitterness. There is the sky. There is the sky arching over us. Oh, God, I cannot leave it, she said. It is all, it is all that I know! That all will be nothingness very soon. You cannot but come. Her body bends wearily. Her eyes cup fear, fear brimming over. And there is the water. And there is the water stirring so quietly. I cannot, I must not drink it! she said. It is more than I dare to know. You will know it soon or late, soon or late. Now you have come. Her wnite nands flutter furileiy. Her body sinks wearily. Her eyes cup fear, fear brimming over. ELIZABETH D. CHAPMAN. i 83 Senior Class History 84 ► REGARDLESS of depression or any econonnlc maelstronn the fall of 1931 brought to Montclair a flock of young Freshmen eager to cram their heads full of knowl- edge. However they were much surprised that the first concrete thing they came up against was the sun-dial: here they were most impolitely ordered to sing to an audience of glaring sophomores. Suddenly, it was discovered that those Frosh could sing (look at the list of Choir members), so the green stockings, caps, and bags were promptly abandoned and the paddles stored away for the next victims. Having been passed by the Sophs, the class of ' 35 was ready to go. Their first problem was class organization. Without ado, officers were elected: Herman Ward, president; Wallace Winchell, vice-president; Emily O ' Malley, secre- tary; and Jo Galati, treasurer. Once organized the class forged ahead rapidly. Extra curricular activities were mobbed with enthusiastic Freshmen. Upper classmen soDn began to realize that these youngsters were going to place a big milestone in Montclair history. No one today can dispute the fact that they have. The first term reports showed that the Frosh were sound academically; their social chance came in February with the Freshman Formal. From that day on their trail was blazed. A dance such as that was an achievement. Aside from presenting an Assembly program the class lived on its laurels for the rest of the year and let others exhibit their prowess. As Sophomores they started by welcoming the new Frosh as cordially as they had been received. No Freshman violating those rigid rules could escape the eagle- eye of Herbert Bitterman, President. He with the help of the other officers, Edith Jakobsen, vice-president, Edna Hitchcock as treasurer and Ellen MacDonald as secretary as well as the whole-hearted support of the class, showed the newcomers what was expected of them. After the novelty of hazing the Frosh wore off, the Sophomores gave a tea-dance in their honor. The varied talents of many individuals were really discovered this second year. In sports, dramatics, music, and literary and club work they proved themselves equal to any upperclassman. In looking over the records we can see that many of these students would have honorary niches if Montclair possessed a Hall of Fame. With the approach of St. Patrick ' s Day plans were made fast and furiously for the eventful Sophomore Hop. Kelly-Green programs, however, did not symbolize the status of the class. No, far from it. By this time, they were ultra-modern young sophistocates. As the class of 1935 became Juniors this became more and more evident. Again there was the problem of selecting officers. This time, Wilbur Parliman became president; Jack Urdang, vice-president; Leonora Albigese, secretary; and Edith Jessen, treasurer. Headed by these four the class was ready to spend another year making Montclair history. Their first success was the Hallowe ' en party held in the gym on October 31st. Celebrites from far and near, history or the present rioted that night at the expense of the Juniors. Then, they turned from Frosh to Seniors to do their entertaining. January 5th marked the night of the Junior-Senior Formal. This proved one of the largest affairs of last season. The outstanding contribution of the class as Juniors was the never-to be for- gotten play Three Cornered Moon. The rip roaring comedy, as well as the splendid acting, were fully appreciated by the college, hiilarity then became subdued as the Juniors carried on the old institution of May Day with all its old traditions. Queen Emily O ' Malley and King Wilkie Powell with their court of attendants sat in state as others performed. And there came that Junior Prom for which all had been waiting these three years. But with this, the Junior year was completed. Glad to be Seniors, but horrified to think that their time was almost over, they looked forward to their last year. In September, 1934, the Senior class came back totally different from the naive Freshmen of three years ago. The names were the same, but the students had changed. They were far wiser by this time and looked with askance upon mere Freshmen. Suddenly with the change from three to two terms the Seniors realized they had but five months more of real college life. They set to work to make the best of the time left by electing as officers, Loren Davis, Ruth Babcock, Michael Gatti, and Eleanor Brady. Too dignified by this time to bother with underclassmen they first honored the Alumni with a dance. Then they in turn became the guests of the Juniors. This was the last seen of the Seniors for three months except for occasional conference days. All undergards agreed that the campus was comparable to the fields on the other side of Valley Road during those ninety days. But then, for six weeks, the Seniors came back to paint Montclair red. Finally those precious days came to an end with Senior Week. With the close of these gala events the Seniors became grads and another class took their place. The class of ' 35 may have added finis to its minutes; its members may have gone out in the world to explore unknown fields; but, they will be secure in feeling that whatever they do or wherever they go, Montclair stands behind them.

Beat you to earth with the gusts of its rain, — And still you loved and yielded without question. You should not have given so much and so freely. For surely there is no passion That can endure such yielding And not become cruel. You were as a reed in the wind. Whose love bore one bitter fruit, A fruit that you cherished with the strange passion of your yielding. And sheltered with nothing but your own slim shadow From the sun and the rain and the wind That beat you both to earth again and again; Out of your love and your sorrow you made lullabies. Out of your sobs and your wailing. Out of your cries and your sweet rare laughter. But at last the wind broke you. And there was no longer any slim shadow. Only echoes of your spent melodies. Only your strange lullabies Living still in the bitter fruit of your love. You were as a reed in the wind that was broken; But your melodies that still sing to the dust, — To the dust that was once a reed. To the dust that Is now flesh And will become dust again, — Must sing on forever. FLORENCE BAAS. 92 Student Council THE Student Council is the governing body of the Student Government Association, of which each student is a member. Its purpose as defined in the constitution is to plan, develop, and control through the efforts of the students, and with f e advice of the President and the faculty, a well organized community; and to con- stitute a medium for expressing the opinions of the students as a whole on matters of general interest. This council consists of four officers, four class presidents, seven representatives at large, the ex-president of the Council, and the Dean of the college. A few of the activities of the Council are: to plan a budget for the entire college, to give exemplary assembly programs, and to plan social events for the whole college. The chairmen of the major committees of the council are: Social, Doris Berstler; Finance, William Allen; Publicity-Scholastic, Evelyn Froestcher; House and Grounds. Carl Mortenson. The officers elected by the students for the year 1934-1935 are: president, Eugene Auryansen; vice-president, Doris Berstler; treasurer, William Allen; sec- retary, Doris Wronker. 94K AGORA, fhe men ' s discussion society, Is one of the most active and potent organ- izations in the college. Membership, wh ' ich is by invitation only, is limited to thirty; qualificatons being leadership, personality, good fellowship, and service. Agora is known for its spirit, not only at the meetings, but in every phase of college life. One of the most significant features of the Agora meetings is the earnest and vital discussion of various current problems, — political, economic, religious, and social, which are presented by individual members, or by guest speakers, and followed by an open forum. In this way Agora realized one of its aims; that of self- expression and co-operative advancement. Again this year, following its custom of the past. Agora sponsored a men ' s banquet, in honor of new men at the college and a novel and interesting assembly program. Agora is proud, not only of the fine spirit shown by its members, but also of the members of the faculty whose names appear on its roster. These include the faculty whose names appear on its roster. These include the faculty adviser. Dr. Harley P. Mllstead, and three loyal honorary members. Dr. C. W. Finley, Dean of Instruction, Coach Chester M. Pittser, and Ex-coach Ernest B. McCoy.

' j« , yp«r «? «w- Aid ornia THE opDortunity to launch info new worlds of Interest has been an outstanding feature of this honorary English society. Last year the members made a signif- icant survey of modern experimental literature; this year, the program of study has centered around that active ally of literature, the modern book world. The book was discussed from the varying points of view of: the author, the collector, the editor, the reviewer and critic, the publisher, the censor, and the American reader. Aldornia was established in the fall of 1929 by the members of the English department. It elects its maximum membership of twenty from the Junior and Senior classes on the basis of scholarship and ability to contribute to the activity of the club. The student body at large has become acquainted with the spirit of Aldornia, through its assembly programs, at each of which the club presents some writer of distinction. The officers for the year 1933-1934 are: president, Vivian Roegner; vice-pres- ident, Elsie Ebner; secretary, Carl Bomberger; treasurer, Eleanor Brady: program chairman, Herman Ward. Professor Lawrence H. Conrad is the faculty adviser. 96 Apfiest eon THROUGH the efforts of Professors John C. Stone and Virgil S. Mallory, an hon- orary nnathennatics society, known as Aphesteon, was organized at the college in January, 1931. Its aims are to further an interest in higher mathematics and to provide an opportunity for individual research work by the more capable students In the Mathematics Department. At present, here are nine Seniors and eleven Juniors who have met the scholastic standards set by the club. Aphesteon meets every month, at which time discussions are held and talks given by members of the club, by the faculty members, and by authorities In various fields of mathematical Interest. Each year Aphesteon awards prizes to the graduating members who have achieved the highest ratings in mathematics throughout their college career. In 1934 the awards were: first prize, Margaret Dunn; second prize, Clara Jllllard; hon- orable mention, Gertrude Alexander.

The exhibits were hung In the outer room of Mrs. Carter ' s office and were very well received by both the faculty and students. The Artsmen hold informal bi-weekly meetings, at which the members work on the same subject but in any medium they choose. Many different interests have been touched on, as portraiture, creative expression, block printing, celluloid etch- ings, modelling and landscapes. Special attention has been given to the fundamentals of good drawing, composition and rendering. The club has rendered a service to the college in its poster drawing, its contri- butions to the Quarterly and its annual Chapel program, which introduces an out- side artist. The club ' s annual exhibition was presented in the Spring.

' Although at the time of its establishment in 1927 this organization included only Greek students, and, later, in 1929, only Latin majors and minors, now followers of either subject may join. The increased interest in the beginners ' class in Greek indicates a promising future for the Classical Club. The purposes of this organization are to further an interest in all that pertains to the life of the Greeks and Romans, to guide students for leadership of clubs in the high school, and to provide an opportunity for pleasurable and companionable study. The programs are formed with these purposes in view. They include Roman games, plays, fashion reviews, and a Roman banquet. At times there are displays of Latin Realia collected by the students. Each of the four classes has charge of one meeting. In this way all members take part in the activities of the club. For this year the officers have been: president, Ruth Wolfson: vice-president, Katherine Lacey: secretary, Ruth Conklln: treasurer, Eugene Maleska. lOI Cli I LIO was founded in November, 1929, by a group of Social Studies majors, who felt that a club was needed to foster the Interest in history. Since that time it has been an especially active and enthusiastic organization, and has grown rapidly in both membership and significance. The main purpose of the club is to develop an intelligent interest and under- standing of the problems which arise in the study of history, both ancient and modern. This year Clio is mostly concerned with the culture of certain famous historical periods. Through a recreation of the atmosphere of each period, a more complete under- standing and appreciation has been brought about. Membership in Clio is limited to Social Studies majors. New members are Invited to join the club at the end of the Spring term of each year. Officers for the year 1934-1935 were: president, Betty Stewart; vice-president, Kathryn Stilwell; secretary, Mary Shaffer; treasurer, Edith Sutherland.

The purpose of the club is to help develop a civic and professional spirit among its members by arousing an Interest in and an understanding of modern life as depicted In contem- porary events. The club has as Its faculty advisor, Dr. Wlttmer of the language de- partment. The meetings are held on the first Wednesday of each month, at which time diverse programs are presented by faculty members, noted speakers, and students.

Several purely social meetings are held each year to enable the members to become better acquainted with one another. Although membership is open to all students in the college, the number is limited to seventy-five. Officers for the years 1934-35 are: Marie Osborne, pres- ident; Catherine Carr, vice-president: Anne Anderson, secretary; Alice Schmidt, treasurer. 104 Creative D ance Club O INCE its organization in 1932, the Creative Dance Club has grown so rapidly that it now numbers nriore than seventy-five with additions of fifty-five this fall. The Creative Dance Club aims to stimulate interest in dancing and to make the body an instrument more capable of expressing ideas, feelings, and emotions. The club meets weekly and works first on fundamental movements which give body control. As these movements are learned, the individual is then encouraged to use them as a form of expression in creating dances individually or with a group. An advanced creative group of thirteen members meets one evening a week. At the end of each year a recital of original dances is given in which all mem- bers participate. This year the Creative Dance Club sponsored three assembly programs; two by professional groups from New York, and one by the club itself. The officers for 1934-35 are: leader, Margaret A. Sherwin; president, Ann Mondamile; vice-president, Ruth Conklin; secretary, Fulvia Dell ' Omo; treasurer, Bernice Katz. 105 Creative Writing Club The Creative Writing Club, organized four years ago, has steadily maintained as its central purpose the encouragement and literary development of those persons possessing a certain facility in writing. Its wish is to encourage these people to keep in the habit of writing, and for them to gain a better critical ability through group criticism of the manuscripts presented. The procedure of the club has been one of simplicity. There is only one officer, a chairman, who this year is hierman Ward. Each member is required to bring a manuscript to each meeting which he reads before the group for criticism. Poetry and the short story have been the most common forms of expression offered, but all literary forms are welcomed. The membership, which is by invitation, is limited to twenty. The meetings have taken place once a month, sometimes In the afternoon, sometimes in the evening in either of the dormitory halls. As Its faculty adviser, the club Is fortunate In having Professor Lawrence H. Conrad. 106 III!

As a good-will ambassador, the choir travels through the state singing by request at the high schools of New Jersey. Membership in this choral group is restricted to fifty voices. The choir sings eight part work, entirely Acapella, under the capable direction of Mr. Carl F. Mueller. The year 1935-35 saw a program including a Christmas Concert, a Joint Concert with Mr. Mueller ' s church choir under the name of the Montclair a Cappella Choir, a Spring Concert, and many programs ranging widely from performances in high schools and churches to broadcasts over national N. B. C. hookups. The repertoire of the choir is growing rapidly and now goes as far back as the fifteenth century for some of its sacred and secular music. The choir also sings quite a large number of compositions from the pen of Mr. Mueller, its conductor. The student body has had an opportunity to hear the group in its chapel pro- grams. 115 •nirti--i --iiiiiittf Montclair Quarterly Ql ' NCE Its initial appearance in 1930 under the tutelage of a small group of students interested in writing, the Montclair Quarterly has steadily increased in its appeal and quality until it now holds a position of well-deserved prominence as a college literary publication. Two distinct aims dominate the magazine. It desires, first, to afford students with ability in any of the forms of literature an opportunity to publish their work; and second, it seeks to arouse an Interest In creative expression In other members of the student body. A literary and a business staff comprise the organization of the Montclair Quarterly. The literary staff Is composed of students who are outstanding In the scholastic literary field and who possess critical ability to a marked degree. Although the magazine Is primarily a literary organ. It also has published a few original drawings, in various media. Well-chosen color schemes and harmony of format also reveal a recognition and appreciation of the other arts. As its name Implies, the Montclair Quarterly appears four times a year, Includ- ing one silent issue. For the year 1934-35 the magazine had for Its editor-in-chief, Vivian Roegner, with George Dukes as literary editor, and Charlotte Harrison as business manager. The success of the magazine Is due in a large measure to Pro- fessor Lawrence H. Conrad, its present faculty adviser. ne The Pelican, the college bi-weekly newspaper sponsored by the English Depart- ment, under the direction of its staff adviser, Phil D. Collins, instructor in English, and business adviser, Harold S. Sloan, assistant professor of Social Studies, has for its aims the dissennination of campus news, the expression of student opinion, and the furthering of journalism. Several new phases of college publication ' s wrrlc were developed this year. As an expression of the true meaning of Thanksgiving, the Pelican sponsored the dis- tribution of twenty-five Thanksgiving baskets to poor families in representative towns. A special alumni issue was published in conjunction with the Alumni Association and was sent to thirty-five hundred alumni. Staff members of the Pelican aided in welcoming over two hundred high school journalists and assisted in publishing a special convention newspaper for the meeting of the Northern Scholastic Press Association Convention held at the College. The following staff has been in office from March, 1934 to January, 1935: Eleanor Maurer, editor-in-chief; Elizabeth Thornton, assistant editor; Anne Mondanile, copy editor: Sylvia Zwick, news editor; Violet Burchull, feature editor; Jeanette Huff, make-up editor; Hedwig Haschke, exchange editor; Mamie Mirsky, alumni editor; and Rose Schonberg, business manager. New members of the staff were elected on a merit and ability basis. elican 117 Philosophy Club It has been the abiding aim of the Philosophy Club since its founding in 1930, to ■ study both the lives and the works of the great philosophers, as these factors manifested themselves in the search for significant and true in life. The Philosophy Club further aims to stimulate the thinking of its members towards a correlation of these philosophies with the problems of present day society. Each year, the Program Committee, in conjunction with the president and the inspiring guidance of the faculty adviser. Professor Margaret B. Holz, has prepared a program worthy of the club ' s purpose. The Philosophy Club this year, under the very able direction of its president, Aaron Franzblau; vice-president, Edward Leshowitz; secretary-treasurer, Dora Gordon, has been launched on a program which promises to surpass in virility, interest and penetration the programs of preceding years. The emphasis this year has been removed from the works of the philosophers, as something individual and unrelated, annd placed on a study of the various questions with which philosophy has always concerned Itself. 118 Pfirontistericon £L LTHOUSH Phrontisterlcon Is a comparatively new club it has already made  its mark in the college. Since Its organization in 1932 the club ' s membership has rapidly increased.

The club consists of two divisions, Esotericon for Juniors and Seniors and Exotericon for Freshmen and Sophomores. Each section has its own officers and meets individually. The monthly programs, which are carried out entirely by students, allow all members to participate. Open discussions and reports by members on interesting literary phases usually feature the programs Last year Esotericon studied many current magazines, while Exotericon made a survey of Oriental literature. Esotericon ' s officers for the year 1934-1935 are: president, Martha Reld; vice- president, Dora Gordon; and secretary, Eleanor Katzan. Exotericon. the junior group, has elected these officers: president, Pauline Treanor; vice-president, Bernard Borressoff: and secretary-treasurer, Eleanor Olsen. 4119 Pro Musica PRO MUSICA, fhe honorary music society at Montclair, was organized in Decem- ber, 1933 largely through the efforts of Miss Edna McEachern, faculty adviser.

Its membership is limited to students who have attained outstanding scholar- ship in their field and who are willing to enrich their knowledge and understanding by an active club participation. Rohwec members not only concern themselves with the serious implications of social and economic world happenings, but also find time to enjoy themselves. Their meetings at the homes of Professor Sloan and Professoh hiatch have been sources of pleasure for both the members and faculty of the Social Studies Department. This year the plans for meetings have varied, allowing for a greater flexibility. These programs have included panel discussions by the faculty members of current problems and interesting addresses by outside authorities. The officers of Rohwec for the current year have been: president, William Monprode; vice-president, Morris Cohen; secretary, Aaron Fish; treasurer, Fred C ' -anse.

This year ' s programs have given the members a better understanding of the commercial fields utilizing scientific knowledge through participation in the work encountered in such fields as radio construction and photography. The officers for the year 1934-1935 are: president, David McNeely; vice- president, Howard Philippi; secretary, Adele Livingston; and treasurer, Hedwig Haschke. 123 The Senate l[ E believe that the soul of culture lies in service to others, declares the ' Senate credo. This fellowship of college men seeks, through mutual help- fulness, to develop the arts of cultivated gentlemen. Every two or three weeks, evening meetings are held, at which some phase of the fine arts, literature, or politics is treated by members. This year Senators ex- plored contemporary matters in the light of outstanding thinkers and leaders. Professor Edward H. Webster is the founder and adviser. Through his guidance. Senate affairs have become a high tradition on Montclair ' s campus. Artists of high standing perform at the annual Senate chapel event and at the open meetings. Through the kindness of Mrs. Webster, most of the gatherings are in her pictur- esque home where college songs round the piano and give-and-take discussions are enjoyed. Limited in number, the Senate ' s membership is by Invitation, preference being given to English majors and minors. Officers for 1934-1935 were: president, Robert Long; vice-president, Carl Bomberger; treasurer, David Armstrong; and secretary, Wallace Winchell, Jr. 124 Sigma Phi Mu SIGMA PHI ML) is an organization of students nnajoring or minoring In nnathe- matics. The aims of the club are the stimulation of interest and the presentation of further opportunities for study in the field of mathematics beyond that gained from regular college courses. Dr. hloward Fehr, as faculty adviser has contributed much to make our programs especially in teresting and instructive. The faculty members of the Math department have spoken at various meetings and occasionally the club has had an outstanding mathematician as guest speaker. Members of the club have also done much, by their participation in the year ' s activities, to make the club a source of valuable Informa- tion. There have been varied social programs sponsored by Sigma Phi Mu. The annual supper hike v as a big success and the social held one evening in December, was attended by many members of the club. The officers for the year 1934-1935 were: president, Harold Jordan; vice-pres- Idenl, Dorothy Schmltt; secretary, Marie Mulcare; treasurer, John Feltman; and librarian, Shirley Mledema. 4125 String Trio 126 Marius Palmieri Nanette Hunt Fulvia Del ' Omo The Faculty Trio Edna McEachern, piano Cornelia Pot-ter, violin Waiter Potter, ' cello THE Faculty Trio composed of Edna McEachern, piano; Cornelia Basky Potter, violin; and Walter F. Potter, cello, has made a unique contribution to the musical life at the Montciair State Teachers College. It is rare that one finds three artists, each a soloist of unquestioned ability assembled on one campus to devote their energies to promoting the best in music. Edna McEachern studied piano with Joseph L. Levinne, the famous Russian pianist, and is a graduate of the Institute of Musical Art of the Juililard School of Music, where she held a Juililard Scholarship in piano. She also toured the western states as a pianist with the Elleson-Whlte Chautauqua. Since coming to Montciair she has appeared before numerous women ' s clubs in the metropolitan area. Since her graduation from the Institute of Musical Art of the Juilliard School of Music, Cornelia Basky Potter has concertized extensively throughout the eastern states, been a member of the National Women ' s Symphony Orchestra, served as concert-master of the Orchestrette Classique of New York, and appeared in many chamber music recitals with artists of world renown. Walter F. Potter, cellist, is also a graduate of the Juilliard School of Music. He has had a varied experience in symphony, theater, and radio orchestras, and has been a member of the Mozart Quartet, the Claremont Trio, and other prominent chamber music ensemb ' es. The members of the Faculty Trio form the nucleus of a rapidly increasing group of chamber music enthusiasts who as future teachers and leaders In tholr com- munities will in time carry Montclair ' s standards of performance in ' the state. i]21 The String Quartet Benjamin Ka+z Naomi Wolff larmus raimien John Kowalsky Through the efforts of Edna E. McEachern, director of music, the String Quar- tet came into existence in 1930. Since chamber music, with the perfect ensemble playing which it requires, is one of the most challenging fields to a musician, the organization of the String Quartet provided an opportunity for those more advanced musicians of string instruments to exercise their talent. Under Miss McEachern ' s most able direction, the String Quartet has progressed to such an extent that it has gained a position among the leading musical organizations of the College. In 1933 the String Quartet was brought under the sponsorship of Pro Musica, the honorary music society cf the College. In past years, it has played at the Christmas Concerts, the Spring Concerts, the Pro Musica Concerts, and before other smaller gatherings in the College. The members of the String Quartet during this year have been: Benjamin Katz, first violin; John Kowalski, second violin; Meyer Melnikoff. viola; Naoma Wolff, cello. 128 THE College Band, consisting of thirty pieces, was organized in October, 1934, under the direction of Walter T. Potter, instructor in music. The gradual de- velopnnent of this new organization is one of which the college is justly proud. Through the generous cooperation of the College Adnnlnlstratlon and the Student Governnnent Association, four new instrunnents, and splendid uniforms were obtained. The first appearance of our band was at the Trenton football game when the crowd was delighted to hear the strains of our own college songs played by our first new band, appropriately clad In Montclalr ' s red and white. Since then the band has appeared at other major athletic events, in assembly, and in a concert of their own. Plans are being made for a much larger group for next year, and we are sure that the band will soon occupy a very prominent place in the life of the college. The officers are: William Dunn, president: Eric Kirchberger, vice-president; John Rice, secretary and librarian; and Richard Auer, treasurer.

Pittser 134 Ill Men ' s Athletic Association The Men ' s A. A. has finally resolved itself into one of the most active organiza- ' tions in our college; with definite, befitting functions. There seems to have been a spiritual re-organization of the association. The newly-formed council has had a great deal of success in the management of Intra-mural football and has directed an extensive basketball program which was participated in wholeheartedly. Yet another feature of the club ' s program was the perennial production of the successful Varsity Show. Much of the credit for the new spirit in the club may be attributed to Coach C. M. Pittser, director of athletics, whose kind interest and helpful suggestions have aided the club materially. The new administration of the club for the term included: president, E. John Fiorilla; vice-president, Joseph Wilson; treasurer, Al Nagy; and secretary, Harold Souss. From a nucleus of about twenty-five members this association has grown as the men in the college have realized that the spirit which pervades the meetings is some- thing that will continue and aid in providing more interests for the men of the student body. 135 Football ONE loss In eight starts! A new tradition at Montclair! A blocked kick by Millers- ville, and six points to Trenton totaling 12, were all the points our opposition could get this year, against our large total of 148. The tide has turned! The days of Montclair ' s being a ' setup ' for other schools have vanished. The reason? . . . our new coach, Chester M. Pittser, for to him is due the credit of this brilliant season. With a small squad and limited facilities he has emerged victorious. A tie in the opener with Bergen County, Jr. College, the scarlet and white took the next six straight defeating Wagner College, Rutgers Jr. Varsity, New York Aggies, Millersville (Pa.) State Teachers College, Kutztown (Pa.) State Teachers Col- lege, and Panzer College. The line-up this year featured htank Mellenger spectacular signal caller, passer, and runner, Al Heim and Hank Zinn at half who did good work In catching passes and gaining through the line, and plunging hial Gauss who split the opposition ' s line wide open. Pat Forde, end mate of Dick Nagy, did the kicking this year and it was Pat who pulled the team out of the tight spots with his kicking toe. At tackle there was Johnny Fiorilla, who did excellent work In kicking off and covering points after touchdowns, balanced by Bill Monprode who could always be depended upon to turn in a perfect performance in blocking. At the guard posts were Herb Lipslts and John Fleming who on defense bungled up the plays of our opponents, and on offense ripped the line wide open. At center was Bloomfield ' s finest, none other than Joe Wilson whose consistent passing and defense work was admirable. Along with these was another group, hardly to be classed as reserves or substitutes. In the backfleld was little Wllkle Powell, as tough as nails, and ' sleepy ' De Michele, both dependable to turn In commendable performances in blocking, running and snaring passes. Westervelt, hurt early In the season, came back to do fine work at end In the latter half of the schedule. ZanettI, Brush, and Lees, half-pint guards by Coach ' s terminology, proved that 150 lbs. is all anyone needs to play football, if he ' s made of the right kind of stuff. Relief work was done well by Moleska and Zlsman at end, by Morlssey and Bucharest at tackle, and Devereaux at center. De Michele, Powell, Monprode, Westervelt, Lees, and Bucharest will be lost through graduation, but the starting line-up with the exception of Monprode will be left Intact. With one more year ' s experience and the Invaluable guidance and leader- ship of Coach Pittser, another successful season for 1935 seems almost a certainty. Here ' s to 1935! 136 137 Women ' s Athletic Association C ACH year, under the guidance of the Women ' s Athletic Association, sports are playing a larger part in the lives of the Montclair girls. Every girl on the Athletic Council represents a section of a class — so voicing individual interests. Thus, soccer may soon be added to the major sports of hockey, volley ball, basketball, baseball, archery, and tennis. Play Day is open to all girls of the college. This fosters the development of new athletes, and promotes friendship among the students; and is one of the greatest achievements of the year. Enjoyable games in hockey and basketball were played with outside schools during the year. All girls who have earned their bars or numerals in any sport attended the parties given by the organization. The annual banquet marked the close of a successful season. The officers for the year 1934-1935 were: president, Evelyn Rieger; vice-presi- dent, Marcia Stryker; secretary, Mabel Smith; treasurer, Katherine Stilwell. The Faculty advisers were: Miss Dorothy Duke, and Miss Margaret Sherwin. 138 Women ' s Hockey LJ OCKEY affords the women of the college a grand opportunity to test their ' ' strength and agility. Although cold weather set in early this year, it did not curb the enthusiasm of the players. Two invitation games were played this year. The first, with Englewood hlockey Club, proved very successful, the score being 2 — in our favor. The second, with Panzer, was a closer game, ending with a tie score. In the intramural games, the Junior-Senior team won the most number. As in former years, the traditional Red and White game was played at the end of the season. The Red team won, an outcome due in no small part to Eleanor Brady who played center forward. Others who distinguished themselves in this game were Doris Berstler and Ruth Waters. These three seniors have been Instrumental in the success of our teams in the past four years. 139 Women ' s Basketball 140 i ITH the approach of winter, basketball again makes its appearance on the athletic scene. As it is the only major sport offered during the winter term, over one hundred usually turn out. During this season, two teams made up of the best players, were invited to participate in the annual basketball play day at Trenton State Teachers College. Our team Is proud of the fact that it won a majority of games played. Other outside games were played with Newark, Panzer, Hackensack, and Jersey City. Then, too, we had interclass games. The teams were rather evenly matched but the Juniors came out ahead. The season came to a fitting close with an appropriately thrilling contest between the Red and White teams of selected players representing the best of each class. The Red team was victorious by a score of 23 to 14. AGAIN the title of net queen goes to Evelyn Rleger. She seems unbeatable, since for three consecutive years she has held this title. However, she has a formidable rival in the person of Raymonde Boerl who has won second place for three consecutive years. Both players have shown beautiful form, Evelyn excelling in an unsurpassed backhand stroke and Ray in a powerful forearm drive. This combination, composed of two such outstanding players, could not help but provide a spectacular contest revealing an exhibition of skill and technique. Forty aspirants tried out their skill in the regular tournament. Eliminations began and Evelyn Rieger, Raymonde Boeri, Ruth Waters and Doris Berstler reached the semi- final round. The contest then narrowed down to Evie and Ray. After a prolonged battle, during which the spectators were considerably thrilled and impressed, Evie defeated Ray, thus bringing to a close the fall tournament. With the graduation of these two stars, tennis fans must look elsewhere for players who will provide such brilliant tennis matches. Women ' s Tennis 4141 Women ' s Volleyball THE brisk fall days brought an unusual nunnber of girls to the gym for a season of ' volley ball. With skillful overhead services, swift returns, crafty placennents, and great agility brought into play, many an expert proved the game to be real art rather than just another sport. Afer a series of practices, a number of jealously contested class games were played. Competition was strong. Each player was fighting for a place on the tradi- tional Red and White teams. The final selections made were: Red team — Seraldine Duffy, Edith Bradley, Edith Jessen, Mary Shaffer, Ida Krug, Lorraine Grauss, Ray Boeri, Ruth Banker, Gertrude Dejkstra, Lois Raff and Marie Zoerner; White Team — Evelyn Rieger, Catherine Carr, Marion hiansen, Marlyn Martelliere, Marjorie Kirby, Edna hiitchcock, Sally Smith, Alica Christenson, Julia Riz, hiildegarde Lobe!, Henrietta Goerler, Dorothy Hickerson. A stirring battle ensued, each player using her greatest skill to lead her team to victory. The Red team finally clinched the game by a close score of 35 to 33. 142 Ill III III Social History THE past year will soon be recorded in the annals of M. S. T. C. as the heyday of ' social activity. With one event rapidly follow ing another, the noon committee meetings have become a college institution as well as an unalterable tradition. And then we won ' t soon forget those fog-eyed students trying to keep awake in Saturday classes after the fatal night before. But even the strain on the family exchequer was worth the times we ' ve had. To start the year off, those meek(?) humble(?) Frosh shed their green caps and ribbons and made a mad dive for the Gym on Friday, September 28th. hiere the Sophs gave them their first taste of Montclair ' s most popular Extra Curricular Activity. In fact, the Sophs succeeded so well that the rest of the dances this year have been mobbed with Freshmen. Jimmie Donegan and his committee with Jules Brick and his Bards initiated those youngsters well. Then the Student Council took up the proposition where the Sophs stopped and gave a tea dance for the Freshmen on October 9th. This time the country hicks knew more about the dances than the smooth city slickers. Why? Didn ' t you see Mr. Steiner there with his megaphone calling, Birdies in the cage, All hands around, and Paul Jones ' galore? A vote of thanks should go to Doris Bersfler bringing in this innovation as well as the now you see it — now you don ' t act for bringing in this innovation as wel by our prize magician, Fred Kolb. And then came the hiallowe ' en Party; gayer, noiser and funnier than ever. And who will forget the alluring Cleo and her man, Mark Anthony! Once more those English Profs outdid eight hundred students in cleverness and originality. Another high spot in the evening was Nan hHunt ' s realistic impersonation of Mr. Dye whom the Dorm girls know so well. But, when the cider and the doughnuts came out, every- thing else was forgotten. Even Jules and his Bards took time out to pay homage to the refreshment servers. With the end of that evening it was decided that the Freshmen were successfully launched; the upper-classmen began to steal the limelight. The night of October 27th saw the Dorms the center of social activity with their inmates impatiently waiting for men to arrive from near and far. But then, who wants to sit mildly by when the Princetonians are playing a few feet away? Dot Johnson and Ruth Waters with their committees worked hard to make the dance a success. Just try to find someone who can say it was not. And then on Monday, November 26th came a dance in honor of the Football Team that almost put Montclair in line for the Rose Bowl. After such a season some recognition was surely due them. This time the Commuters ' Club took the lead and routed some latent college spirit out of the students. When twelve o ' clock came we all hated to leave but then, regulations are regulations and Tuesday is another day. Neither rain nor fog could keep those Seniors and Alumni from invading Chapin and Russ FHalls on November 23rd. Nor, did it dampen the spirits of either the Princetonians or Hal de Ritter and his orchestra. Old home week became old home night and everyone had a riproaring time. Betty Stewart showed us how a dance should be run with her cortege of Junior floaters. 144 The mad rush of action between Thanksgiving and Christmas plus the timely appearance of the Dean ' s list produced a sudden quiescence on Social Montclair. But, the old spirit came to the fore again on the I I th of January. Despite the freezing weather Juniors and Seniors alike fought for room on the crowded floor of Chapin living rorm. If a crowd makes a dance a success the annual Junior-Senior Formal was an overwhelming one. This event, one of our nicest traditions, became one of the gayest events in this year ' s calendar. And then those green Frosh of a few months back came forth on February 15th and showed us what gay young sophistocates can do when they ' re in the mood. Much to the surprise of the faculty members and upper-classmen present the Fresh- men set an example of Social procedure as only Emily Post herself could surpass. This was a red letter date for the class of ' 38. Not to be out done by mere Frosh as well as to sustain their reputation of last year the Sophomores appeared all decked out and ready for action on the night of March 8th. Wasn ' t their annual Hop reason enough? And if you would like to know what class spirit Is, just ask one of those Sophomores. They could show you how handy a little of it is In putting something over. And then after Spring vacation the Junior class held their holy-of-holies — the Junior Promenade. With the proverbial soft lights and sweet music for atmosphere the evening went so fast that we had just begun when the orchestra broke Into Good Night Ladies. Ann Gaub and her committee should be congratulated for having brought their class through such a successful social year. The social activities of Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors alike faded out of the picture completely with the return of the Seniors from their three months of teach- ing. For four years the Seniors had been looking forward to their own Senior Week and its gay events. They were ready to do It up with a bang. But, finally, the I Sth of June brought to a close their one grand and glorious week. Senior week not only spelled out the end for the graduates but the close of another year for the rest of the school as well. In leaving, we have agreed that If next year should prove as brilliant as the last one has, socially Inclined Montclairlans will have nothing to worry about. 145 III!

In Septennber, I 934, we sent our sixth group of Montclair students abroad. The students abroad live with the people of the country and come to know and understand them and their customs. They achieve the ability to think in the foreign language. When this goal is reached their appreciation of the foreign country is deepened. Besides the benefit to the pupil abroad, those at Montclair are influenced by the fuller understanding of foreign culture gained by their classmates, and by con- tacts with students from other lands. The Foreign Exchange System has received two students from other countries this year: Amalia de Oteyza of Venezuela and Liliane Kurtz of France. Montclair has sent these students to Europe this year. To France: Josephine Galati, Clermont Ferrand; Irene Hebard, Aix-en-Provence; Herbert Bitterman, Lyon; Anthony Cernigliaro, Macon. To Germany: Charlotte Posse, Berlin. To Spain: Catherine Le Malstre, Madrid. Since its inauguration, this system has sent sixty-five students abroad. The students of the Foreign Language department feel that under the leadership of the faculty. President Sprague, and with the cooperation of the student body, we will continue to send students abroad, and to foster that modern international spirit, and that breadth of experience which form our aim as teachers. 4150 Student Excfidnge 151 152 t . _ s 1 .• -■- ' -r--— u r 153 154 Ill i Ky 156 Class Directory Adams, George L.
