ASS HISTORY To MOST PEOPLE it must have been just another year when 1940 rolled around, but to the class of '44, it was not only the beginning of one year, but the beginning of four years which were to be filled with memories never to be forgotten. Let us call to mind some of them . . . The fall of 1940 found the class of '44 making its rather awkward debut as freshmen to the halls of N.P.H.S. Most of our time was spent trying to find out where our next class was. It was no novelty to find a freshman comfortably seated in a Senior English class and soon realizing he had made a slight mistake. The first class meeting was held on February 26, 1940, with Charles Johnson presiding as president, Bill Engstrom, vice-president, .Ioan Tornton, secretary, and Verdi Throckmorten as treasurer. The highlight of the year was an outing spent at Forest Lodge. Two of the most outstanding events of our Sophomore year which deserve notation, were the successful Mayflower Tea Dance, and a pleasantly spent spring day at Forest Lodge. Our officers consisted of Donald Carmichael, pres- identg Bill Engstrom, vice-president, Eleanor Ogden, secretary, and Augusta Willmerding, treasurer. Its greatest achievement, under the guidance of our Sophomore adviser, Miss Wheeler, was an organized class cabinet made up of representatives from each Sophomore home room. Upon our return to N.P.H.S. in September, 1943, we never dreamed of the great happenings which were to take place during the coming year. As in every other year the traditional graduating rings were purchased with Jim Burns as chairman of the Ring Committee. The Junior class meeting consisted mostly of debates, deciding whether or not to have a formal or informal prom, due to the ban on pleasure driving. On May 28 N.P.H.S. students arrived fmostly on footj at a Formal Junior Prom. The theme of the prom was Street of Dreamsf' and Marie Vitelli was chairlady. An unexpected guest arrived at 10:15-it was a blackout which lasted for quite some time. Uur Junior Class officers were Don- ald Carmichael, president, Iris De Camp, vice-president, Doris Hedden, sec- retary, and Agnes Higgins, treasurer. Miss Atcheson was our class adviser. N.P.H.S.'s football team made history by defeating Plainfield for the first time in years, with a score of 12 to 6. And so it happened at last, we finally became Seniors after striving at our goal for three years. Still recovering from the shock of our victory over Plain- field, we decided we liked the feeling so well that once again we were victori- ous by winning with a score of 13 to 7. Donald Carmichael was our choice for Student Council president. Our Senior officers were Harry Lobby, president, Bill Engstrom, vice-presidentg Virginia Hooper, secretary, and Agnes Higgins, treasurer. Miss Campbell was our class adviser. And so the curtain is rung down on one of the most powerful four years of our lives and we must now go out into the world and play a leading role in the greatest of all plays, our own lives. We make our entrance into an uncertain world of war and we know not what the future holds for us, but let us remember always as we say now never goodbye but f'Til1 we meet again.

MCCURDY DURING THE school year 1943-1944 the purposes of the Student Council have been to have more student participation in governmental affairs, and to promote a greater number of interesting activities. The work of the Student Council was carried out by committees such as: social, election, handbook, publicity, fire patrol, welfare, hall patrol, and lost and found. The Plainfield game celebration, the Umbriago hops, tl1e decoration of the school at Christmas, the suggestion box, and promoting the sale of war stamps were all projects taken up by the council. By promoting these activities the Student Council played a major role increasing student-teacher cooperation, and in stimulating school spirit. It is hoped that the Student Councils of future years will benefit by this program and continue these projects. Page Fifty-sm 'L ll . J X I 1 xxx X .

Membership 011 the Council is open to any upper classman whose marks are Ci, or above. Fresh- men may join during the second semester if their average is Nlif' Every member volunteers two periods a week to serve in the library. The meet- ings are devoted to instruction, work periods, and occasional recreational parties. Q Although many students do Il0l realize it. tllere is a Library Council at Somerset School to which the freslnnen there belong. This year we are losing only six Seniors, but we wish them luck all the more heartily. Because the Library Council must meet after school. many bus pupils and many pupils who work cannot attend the meetings. We wish to invite anyone, though. who is interested, to join next year.

It was presented Fri- day evening, December 10, and Saturday evening, December 11. It was considered a great success. As in the previous year, a junior club was formed. The members proved very helpful in producing the play. The Dramatic Club sponsored the advanced speech class in their production, uLunatics at Large. An enjoyable party was held with the Plainfield and Bound Brook Dramatic Clubs at our school. A gala Thespian Initiation was held at the Park Hotel to install all those entitled to join the National Thespian Society.

The following meetings and events were particularly out- standing: Joint meeting with Hi-Y, Open House, Date Night, Various speakers, and movies. Th'e social affairs consisted of two formals and one informal dance. Our year would not have been a success if we did not have the help of our Girl Reserve Planning Chairman, Mrs. Turnbul, and the advisers. As the year draws to a close we say goodbye and good luck to the Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors and we sincerely hope that the com- ing years bring as much joy, laughter, and good times as it has brought to us.

G EORGE BLACKFORD THE PURPOSE of the Hi-Y is to Mcreate, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community higher standards of Christian character. It is composed of high school boys who carry on a program of social affairs as well as educational. During the 1943-'44 season the highlights of tl1e cluh's program were: the Log Splitteris Ball, the Christmas Party, and the Hayride. Also included were motion pictures, speakers, a religious forum, and sports of all kinds. One of the club's main projects was the selling of war bonds and stamps under the guidance of Miss Gennet, which proved very success- ful. Delegates attended the State Hi-Y Conference in Haddonfield and also were representatives in the New Jersey State Model Legislature which was held in Trenton. The club was under the supervision of Mr. Daniel Hogan. As the year draws to a close, the departing members will never for- get Hi-Y and the good times the club olfered them.

Besides being on hand for tl1e basketball and football games which were played at home, the squad also traveled to distant schools to support our teams. They have assisted in making our assembly programs more interesting also. ln addition to tllis social affairs, a great many changes were made in the administration of this organization. Meetings were held regu- larly on Friday ofceacll week. At these meetings many things were ac- complished. A constitution was established and a new system of attend- ance was inaugurated, by which all members with two unexcused ab- sences were suspended from the squad. Because of the excellent guidance of its adviser, Miss Johnston, and the loyal cooperation of its members, the squad had a most suc- cessful year.

The year book today has a new and pow- erful motif: to reflect the school in war time. Likewise, the year book today has a richer meaning than ever before: it is engraved with memories of friends and classmates who will be setting forth to all the fronts. You rightfully expect a year book that will hold a proud place in the annals of your school, and for these reasons we dedicate our trained skills, our modern plant, and our experienced services to the fulfillment of your most discriminat- ing requirements.
