There were four junior regulars on the team-Beisler, Stock, Gildea, and Meadow. Early in the fall the Sentinel competition started, and before the holidays it was announced that Five juniors had been selected by the Editorial Board, while the Business Board took on three. On the Cross Country team, three juniors, Eisenbart, who was elected captain of the '29 team, O'Connell, and Bernardo, starred. The varsity Debating Team, composed of Siegel, Rostow. and Lillian Perelmutter, dropped two close debates. ln the early Tri-Y elections, the juniors were represented by Alice Record, who was chosen secretary. Cut of a field of sixty nominees, Bob Stock, junie Gildea, Alice Record, and Rita Eagan were elected to the Student Council to represent the Class of ,29. After the Christmas holidays, Hillhouse began a successful basketball season, finishing as runner-up in the Yale tourney. jimmy DeAngelis was chosen captain and Francis Begley, manager. In the Menorah Declamation Contest for juniors, Ed Hendrie won first prize, though he was hard pressed by Sam Mermin, Gene Rostow, and Irwin Grossman. Ken XYillis was president of Hi-Y, and Dave Lee, Fred Grant, and Ev Wiuestefeld were vice-president, secretary, and treasurer. respectively. Early in February the School Circle chose Frankie Camniarano, Aaron Hertz, Frank Beisler, Al Leveton, Frank Meadow, janet VVilder, and Bill Zimmerman.

After a long competition for the Gleam , Dave Yerkes was selected Editor-in-Chief, and Sumner Roberts, Business Manager. Shortly the greatest excitement of the year took place, as nominations for the class officers were made. After much campaigning, junie Gildea was elected president, Shirley Holabird, vice-president, Anne Haltinger, secretary, and Mlil- liam Mitchell, treasurer. A few weeks before school closed, fifty-three promin- ent juniors were tapped for the Monitor Squad, headed by Bob Stock, Marshal- in-Chief, and Rita Eagan, secretary. Meanwhile the baseball team was con- quering strong opposition, and after trouncing Commercial, Frankie Cammar- anno was chosen to lead the 1929 team. Almost all of the school oflices had now been filled by juniors, and it remained to elect the Class Book oiiicials. Dave Yerkes was elected Editor of this book, and Gordon Hastings, Business Manager.
