On September 9 of the year eighteen, VVe entered here as green as greeng And hardly a Senior. now alive, VVill ever forget that day and year. No sooner settled within these doors, We found ourselves in the Cadet Corps. More fun we had, when one fine day On strike we went in fine array- But to return in great dismay. At last we were freshmen no more, And changed our name to Sophomore, In which we found great things in store. Great numbers will recall perchance Our famous Yama-Yama Dance. Nor can we forget that day of bliss-- The signing of the Armistice. Our acme was approaching near When we had reached our junior year. Before many moons were realized, Our class was strongly organized, And worthy deeds were formalized. Two real dances did we hold. Wfhich events will ne'er grow old, Tho they be to you twice-told. We'll ne'er forget the Declamation Contest In which our own surpassed the rest. In basketball and baseball, too, YVith high honors we were carried thru. And lo! As Seniors we returned last year, Ever onward! Full of cheer! . 1 :gp Y .L , .i ,: I 'A Z s 'J , 1 , Z -Q. A E H s . LE L, Strong to linish our school career- Like the faithful musketeer. First, the Periscope. We undertook To make it supreme in matter and look. Then we set right in with a hop and skip To raise some money for the D. C. trip. We sponsored the concert by the Zimmer Trio, Of whose harps our walls yet hear the echo, Next we brought Old Rutgers down, XVhose numbers were the talk of the town. And finally, the Dramatic Club Play, In which the Seniors held full sway, Turned out IOOZJ the Senior way. After our Washington trip was spent, Examinations came and went, And then-O then! The immortal fray Was ended by Commencement Day. Now, dear children, my tale is done, From which, I hope, much you've won. iljen Sclbst. '22 1 9 2 2 . Our dear Alma Mater, Finest in the east, Here's to you, glory! Oh! May it never cease! Thru the countless ages You will stand alone. In our hearts the kindest The dearest friend we've known. -k 4: 4: Chorus Give us the torch, oh Amboy High! To lead us with its glow. Set us aright to start our journey Where the great and learned go. Bid us farewell for duty calls us And we cannot stay. But we'll prove to you our love, For all you've done for us some day. ff wk 14: When we stood as freshmen At your open doors, You laid before us ' The knowledge of your stores. And with careful guidance Taught what we shouldknow. Now that we are seniors, It's time for us to go. 4: :of PF Seas will lose their powers, Mountains lose their might: Distance will never - Release you from our sight. Memory its stories, Of childhood days will tellg Then we'll think of Amboy XVords by G. Peck. The High we love so well. Music by H.

TRUEMAN Her record is good, her motto better. LEONARD ZAREMBA Love who will, for I'll love none, There's fools enough besides me. AFTER GRADUATION-WHAT? Houhamed, Africa, Feb. 16, 1930. At last, dear Diary, the dreadful fever has left me and I'm going back to the States to regain my health and to see those dear friends whom I haven't seen in years, save during those hours of delirium. Jane says I talked of them continually and she has the means to prove it. Colonel Hefford was also striken with the fever and Jane, dear thoughtful person that she is, bor- rowed the Colonel's dictograph and made records of my delirious statements. Words cannot describe the pleasure these records have given to us. Oh the fun we will have when we begin to check up. I shall play them now before packing them. 4: 4: -or fu x As I was strolling down Fifth Avenue I noticed a charming little shop. The name -on the window attracted me-Mlle. Peck. I entered the salon, and surely enough there was Gladys, the Woman of a Thousand Medals. She has a studio in Greenwich Village which she shares with her assistant, Mlle. Celia Beckoif. As I was leaving, a fair haired deb who was none other than Kathryn Howell, sauntered in for a fitting. Kay is engaged to some distinguished foreigner, I was told by Lucy Bernard, whom I met on her way to lecture on Galli Curci. Lucy showed me a letter she had received from Marie Fritzinger who is teaching the heathen in India the best way to laugh and giggle. We are now in front of the lecture hall and as I was about to give Lucy the magazines I had been carrying for her, she said that I might have them, adding that they contained some very interesting reading. I glanced at the name The Musical World and I had my doubts, nevertheless I leafed through it. VVhat I saw gave me an idea. I went flying back to the hotel, stopping only to purchase a theatrical magazine and a newspaper. When I reached my room I picked out the most comfortable chair and opened the Musical World. There I read of the early life and career of Gertrude Doneson, the noted pianist. The article told about her life in Perth Amboy, but one big thing was omitted and that was the fact that Gertie was the only person in P. A. H. S. whose playing suited that exacting critic- Miss Burns. '. The next article was about a Golden-voiced Soprano known to the musical world as Belle Goldberger, concert singer. The account was illus- trated by several pictures of her vocal cords at rest and in action. Then I read about Dr. Benjamin Mann, who does not allow his practice to interfere with his music. Dr. Mann is a violinst of no mean ability. I learned also that Howard Baker is greatly in demand to play Lohengrin's Wedding March at the fashionable weddings. On the first page of the theatrical magazine there was a picture of Marion Blanchard in the pose which is typical of aesthetic dancers. Much of her success is due to the efhciency of her business manager, Charles Hughes. Then came an account of an interview with George Hilker, the Broad- way Star. It seems as though George is struggling with a great problem-- whether to remain on the stage or enter politics. An article on the main figures starring in Two Friends, namely LeRoy Sturn and Huyler Romond, proved to be very interesting. The celebrated pair are keeping bachelor quarters at an exclusive club. They are bachelors by choice, so the article reads. I suppose Hi is still undecided as to which of the two is the One. Next there was a full page picture of a tall woman whose haughty air told at a glance that she was a dramatic artist. There was something vaguely familiar about her eyes. I glanced down at the bottom of the page. Yes, it was Lucile joseph, I learned that Marvin Smith has become a regular Alex. Hamilton and that he plays the lead in The Perfect Gentleman. Regina Dwyer is studying the lives of Cleopatra and Theda Bara, pre- paratory to making her debut in The Eternal Triangle. In the newspaper I read two editorials The Fine Points of the Game and The Trials of an Interview Editor, by Julius Kass. From the sporting page, which is edited by Mahler, the Wireless Bug, I learned that Joe Desmond, second baseman, had accepted Manager Jim Patten's offer to play on a major team. f An advertisement which fairly shouted at the reader, announced that Bernstein and A. Goldsmith, owners of the Novelty Boot Shop, were having their annual Spring Sale of men's, women's and children's high grade shoes. Special prices to all those from P. A. H. S. Feet is evidently putting into practice some of the things he learned while he was business manager of the Periscope. I noticed an invitation to the public to a teachers' convention to be held the next day in the Perth Amboy High School, so I got up early the next morning and went. The Teachers' Convention was as noisy as a boiler-makers' reunion. There was one group, however, which outdid all the others as far as noise was concerned. I recognized Esther and Ida Frankel, Rosella Goldberger, Fannie Goldfarb, Margaret Olsen, Alice Isenberg, Eleanor Levine, Catherine Olsen and Rebecca Berman. Then there was May Lucey, and Olive Koyen, who finds time to write successful books, Lillian Eisenstadt, an authority on English, Ruelita Snyder, who now watches her pupils so that they do not write notes as she did to Cheshire, and Elinor Barry QI wonder if her pupils can hear her better than we couldj. The School Nurse. Clara Jensen, was talking to the High School Swimming Instructor, Lily Bjork. The physical directors, Evelyn Nickenig, CI always knew she'd be one from the way she made us stand aroundj, Ethel David, and Dorothy Wlatson, were having a heated discussion as to whether the best results were obtained when the exercises were done with music or without it. Suddenly the crowd became quiet. An imposing looking gentleman, the superintendent of schools, was coming down the aisle. He was followed by a trim person whose tortoise-shell rimmed eyes gazed neither to the right nor left. Her very appearance told the world she was a secretary. Heavens, some one exclaimed, that's never Mildred Kovalchik, the jazz baby who taught us all the latest steps during the noon hour? But it was. Time certainly does work wonders. I dropped-into the Public Library to get some quiet after the noise of the convention. At the librarian's desk was a group of young men, all clamoring for her aid in looking for some book which was never written. One could hardly blame them though, for Lola Melbourne certainly is a peach. In the rack containing books for High School students there were two that were un- usually interesting: How I Argued and Blulifed My XVay Through High School by Edward Patten, the great Democratic leader, and My Seven Years in High School by John Ford. It will be remembered that Mr. Ford finally gave in to his rival, Sarah June, who for many years opposed him in his eifort to remain a pupil at P. A. H. S. Whether he gave in to her because of her sex or whether he saw that it would be futile to oppose Sarah cannot be truthfully stated. As I was leaving I collided with a rather short person who was laboring under the weight of a large volume which she was trying to carry gracefully. It was Annette Cutler with her revised edition of Webster's Dictionary. It was the first one that had been published, and she was giving it to the Perth Amboy Library. On the corner standing on a soap box, surrounded by interested listeners, a speaker was waving his hands frantically. He was saying: Friends, don't let me coax you too much. I tell you that my snake-oil is a sure panacea. If you have a headache just apply a little on the forehead. If you have corns, all you have to do is put a piece of cloth saturated with my Oklahoma Lotion on the corn and it's off. Now wait. Should your rubber heels come off sud- denly, don't worry. With this remedy you are safe. It took two looks to convince me that the speaker was Eugene Nussbaum, the quack professor of the overland trail. A loud honking of an automobile horn was followed by excited cries of Clear the street. Here comes the 'Speed King. ' Everyone got as far back on the sidewalk as possible but' Nussbaum, who was still doing acrobatics on the soap box. As the racer swerved around the corner on two wheels, the rear mud guard knocked over the box and the Fall of Nussbaum followed. His head hit the pavement with such force that it almost split-the pavement. 4 Someone 'phoned for an ambulance which shortly arrived. Doctors Fine and Shumsky put poor Eugene upon the stretcher and whizzed him away to the hospital. , What's the excitement? asked a tall woman dressed in mannish clothes, who had a pencil and notebook ready for all the details. She was Gladys Bardin, newspaper reporter. I remembered how anxious Gladys used to be back in old P. A. H. S. to hear all the latest news, so I wasn't a bit sur- prised at her vocation. ' After I had told her all about the accident she said, Come along to the hospital. I want to know what Nussbaum's going to do about it. Knowing that here was a good chance to find out about all my old friends I went along. Say, what's become of Regina Goldberger and Mollie Chmelnik? Regina is still going to camp and Mollie is now Mrs. R---.N That reminds me, Sadie Goldsmith is studying Domestic Science. Yes, Joe's still around. That's why. That Millinery Shop across the street has a familiar nameg GolosoPf's, is it-- Yes, it's Jennie's place. She's quite a millinerf' Do you ever see Eleanor Jonesn? I queried. Yes, I attended one of her lectures on How to Manage New Jersey High Schools.' 'Ba' hopes eventually to return to P. A. H. S. to tell the faculty what she thinks of them. That sounds just like Jonesy. How is Sadie Klein? She's in business with her father. The United Cigar Stores had better beware, she added slyly. We are almost there now, so to save time I'll tell you all that I possibly can. Skinny Aneckstein is a professional cheer leader. He has a cheering school that is quite a success. Harry Goldstein is the most renowned stamp collector in the world. Then there's Antonio, who is still interested in his patent of making ice cream from the atmosphere. Of course he primps as usual and makes sure that everything is on 'just so.' His avocation is pocket billiards. Samuel Sladkus teaches the newest jazz steps by wireless. , I was talking to Isadore Avchen the other day. The poor fellow is still trying to find out why he couldn't get English. Francis Seaman is General Manager of Butler's. Lenny Carlbon runs the Madison Avenue Cash Grocery when he isn't out hunting. Elizabeth Pfeiffer is enjoying the farm. Ed Cheshire is the familiar 'Arrow' man who smiles at you from the collar ads. Julius Chryn is some- what of an artist. He is also leader of the Prickly Heat Jazz Orchestra. Kenny David has gained fame as an expert mathematician. He also takes to painting now and then. George Forman is an electrical contractor. d'Eustachio's a cartoonist. He is also an active member of the City Debating Team. Once in a while he takes time off to play 'Abe Lincoln. ' I must not forget our scientific typists, Dahill and Banks, who have won the degree of Certified Public Accountants, Michelsen is a public ac- countant. Zaremba' started in with a Ford and now has three Packards working for him. Louis Bartha has at last become a convincing speaker. Ida Epstein is a stenographer in the State Senate. Jake Levinson has a clothing establishment on Hall Avenue. George Munn is boy's secretary at the Y and Parker Nielsen is secretary at the YH in Wloodbridge. Well, here we are. I gazed in open-mouthed astonishment at Gladys. Of course I was aware of the fact that she, as a newspaper reporter, would know more about our old school friends than any other one person, but I had never expected this wealth of information. We were met at the door by a nurse who proved to be Edith O'l3rien. In answer to our inquiries she stated that Nussbaum was still unconscious and that they had sent for that famous surgeon, Dr. Alexander Cohen. She added that we might stay and look through the hospital providing we left before the Superintendent, Miss Helen McLaughlin, arrived. It seems that Miss McLaughlin is very strict with visitors. In one room we saw Edward Lake sleeping peacefully. We were in- formed by his nurse, Elizabeth Rhodes, that he had sleeping sickness. Elizabeth's chief difficulty is to keep patients from being talked to death- by herself. I guess Helen knew what she was about when she assigned Elizabeth to take care of Eddie. In another room we saw the Chief U. S. Botanist, Rolland Main, who was suffering with a bad attack of heart trouble. There by his side was Mary Larcombe gently stroking his hand. No doubt she was receiying inspiration for another story. Remember the Periscopel We thought we heard sounds of someone playing a saxaphone in the next room. We peeped in and sure enough there was Dr. Selbst trying to put Meyer Levine to sleep. Poor Meyer had been in an argument with Ted Berkowitz and he must have got the worst of it from his appearance. Next we saw the chief chemists of the Vklurtzel and Scharer Chemical Plant, namely, Joseph Schwartz and Stephen Gojdics. From their appear- ance one would think they were advertising Johnson Sz Johnson's medicinal supplies. I left the hospital after that. Cries of Help, Murder, Police, from a large office building sent a few pedestrians and me scurrying up the stairs to an office from which the sounds of a struggle were forthcoming. On the door was the sign: Drs. Westcott 81 Klein Painless Dentists By this time the whole office force of the large Nielsen Sz Seaman Engineering Company was crowding the hall. Even Roy and Lewis lost their poise and were downright excited. They rushed into the dentists' of- fice. The crowd surged in after them. What does this mean? demanded Dr. Klein. Can't a man have a tooth pulled without having the whole town around? Louis and Royoffered profuse apologies and ordered the reluctant stenographers back to their work. I noticed among them many commer- cial students of P. A. H. S.-Lillian Knudson. Rose Reilley, Margaret Suhar. Sophie Womelsdorf, Ida Cantor, Clara Falkenstrom, Miriam Hart, Ruth McKenzie Poulsen, and last but not least, Ethel Weinblatt, talking and powdering her nose as usual. Down in the street again I found myself walking by the city hall. Some unknown force seemed to be pulling me toward the place. Slowly I re- traced my steps and entered the building. NVell. if it wasn't Howie Jensen, the Speed Kingf, standing before the judge. Howie was charged with speeding and attempted murder, as Florence Leichtman. Nussbaum's lawyer put it. I saw from her appeals to the court in behalf of her client that she was still fond of long words, no matter how they were used. The Court Stenographer, Edna Trueman, took down the case in rapid shorthand. f The judge was speaking: Mr, Nussbaum had no right on that corner, it belongs to the Salvation Army. But he got there first, interrupted Flossie. That makes no difference, the Salvation Army has had that corner for years. Mn Jensen will pay a fifty dollar fine for speeding within the city limits. Court's dismissed. at if if is if I can hardly wait to get back home to see if these presumptions are true-I wonder-i-- OUR WASHINGTON TRIP QExcerpts from a Senior's Diary.j Thursday morning :-The weather looks fine and everything is set for a bon voyage. What a crowd of us there is waiting for the train, and the chaperones too-don't we look stylish in our Sunday best! just been check- ed off prior to boarding the traing this check-off system is sure to prove in- teresting. Thursday afternoon :- Look at the nice station and all the darkies - Where's the capitol? - Is President Harding coming to meet us? - Oh Mr. Bartlett, do we check up now? etc., are heard along our ranks, for here we are at last in the great city. The capitol is in plain view from Union Station and we immediately setiout for it. It is our luck to find the Senate and House in session. The Old National Museum is our next stop and by now our number is divided into two parts: those who search frantically and fruitlessly for a drinking fountain, and those who madly rush all the souvenir stands in sight. However, our time is soon up and we leave for an hour's tour of the city. Thursday evening:-The bus ride, the inspection of our new rooms, dinner, dancing and the Congressional Library-what a happy combination for an evening's pleasures, yet it has all been ours. Vlfashington was most glorious at sunsetg the big hotel, a big surprise, and the Congressional Library, a wonderful ending for our first day. Friday morning :-Another promising day is before us, but oh! how we wish we hadn't made so much noise last night when we should have been asleep! Daddy Cthat's our guidej says we must leave early for Arlington cemetery and we all look dead and reply, Eventually, why not now? 1 Thecemetery is just the plac for these poor soldiers who rest beneath its soil. No other spot can excel its picturesque setting and the restful quiet which its shady trees and soft slopes afford. The amphitheatre recalls the buildings of Rome and its architecture is attractive as well as beautiful. The Curtis-Lee Mansion we next visitg then the VVhite House. The former is a typical old colonial house but the latter defies description. It is already lunch time and we must hasten back to the hotel. ' Friday afternoon :-What a pleasure it must have been for Washington to spend all his days at Mount Vernon, while we are given only a meagre hour to enjoy its beauties. The ride up here was quite lengthy, between the scenery and the strains of an ancient player piano, the time was well spent. Friday evening :-We have just returned from Keith's Theatre where we spent the evening. Who of us will ever forget, You hoid me, I gotta da proof, and Put it on, take it off, etc. Saturday morning :-Our last day in VVashington! The Bureau of En- graving and Printing, Washington Monument, National Museum, Pan- American building-and the morning is soon gone. Before we know it, here we are at Union Station. Check off, says Mr. Bartlett, and in another minute we are seated in the train, leaving VVashington. At seven o'clock we are pulling into Amboy and our trip is at an end. Trip is merely a single word with no special significance, but when you place S,enior's and VVashington before it, there is no limit to its meaning. GLADYS PECK, '2Z.

We give, divise and bequeath to our worthy and esteemed principal, Mr. Kleinhans, our devotion and memories of a pacemaking and' exemplary class, also, the fragrant aroma emanating from that so highly beloved plant, the Class Ivy. We give, devise, and bequeath to Mr. Ramsey our promiscuous inter- pretations of Einstein's Theory of Relativity and our thorough analysis of the shrouded Fourth Dimension, the last three letters of the alphabet, all the possible geometric figures, all alegbraic and other mathematical nomen- clature, with which he may torment and hold spell-bound all unfortunates who may enter his emporium of mathematics. We give, devise, and return to Mr. Sturgis the potential energy which we consumed in an effort to fill our grey matter with the chemical formulas, compositions, and processes, an I, O. U. for the breakage of laboratory apparatus used in endeavoring to discover an automatic mender of books, and thus be deemed martyrs to the cause. We give, devise, and bequeath to Mr. Bartlett our American Democ- racy note-books, scrap books, and books scrapped about, all declarations, proclamations, Bill of Rights, bills by right, Congressional Acts, and Vol- stead's Act, our future diplomats, aristocrats, and democrats, a preserved document of famous sayings, including the most famous You will now have six pages to writeng lastly, our arguments which were of no avail. We give, devise, and dedicate to Miss Stauffer our courageous attempts at literature, poetical, diabolical, and otherwise, the inspirations, aspirations, perspirations, and procrastination confined in our marvelous addresses ren- dered with such noteworthy force of beautiful language and oratorical gesticulations, our interpretations of epithets, epitaphs, and epigrams, the honor of astounding future Seniors with stichomythia, Areopagitica, phantas- magoria, and their companion terms, lastly, our famous historical novel entitled: Why VVas Milton, Shakespeare, etc. We give, devise, and bequeath to Miss McCormick the sweetest thoughts of having taught a class that refrained from speaking after the bell rang, our French texts which we devoured with remarkable enthusiasm. K V We give and leave to Mrs. Lanning the space in the center of the rear corridor on the first floor as an example of public property being used for private use. We give, devise, and bequeath to Miss Bloomingdale and Miss Peterson the express privilege of guiding the students meandering thru the halls, as they have guided us in the one-way traffic problems, the remembrance of a class that put their shoulders to the walls in the corridors. We give, devise, and bequeath to Mr. Henry our knowledge of the Roman language, the arguments of Cicero and the manoeuvres of Ceasar which caused us no end of anxietyg and lastly the trotting ponies, in order that we may leave with a clear conscience. We give and release to Miss Fulton our shorthand notebooks: a guar- antee that with our knowledge of commercial law we will clean up millions on the market fnot saying whatj. We devise and bequieath to Mr. Eichlin the memory of having had the best orchestra during our reign as kingsg a request to innovate the synco- pated concoctions and interpretations of a confused cerebrum-in other words, Jazz, May he grant the final request of the departing. We grant to Mr. Canonico the enhanced joys of saying Life's Too Short and That's Good to the students yet remaining within the walls of this institution. We bequeath to Mr. Waddell and Miss Burns the surviving remnants of our sneaks as a memorial of the most pleasing and obliging class in gymnastic activities. We give, devise and bequeath to the remaining members of the faculty our fondest and sincerest appreciation of their cooperation with us in any mannerg and the pet names with which we have honored them when not in their presence. VVe give, devise, and bequeath to the envious Juniors our education de- rived from this institution of learning, our assembly rooms and desks which they shall consider with due respect, in the auditorium, our advanced box seats for which we paid four years of arduous work, our privileges of conQ ducting dances, plays, concerts, etc., and the consequent troubles involved in selling ticketsg some of our number who admire this school too much to leave it so soonand who thought it necessary to remain in order to render advice to those who seem to be following their example. We give to the Sophomores our sincerest encouragementsg valuable advice to take heed of prevailing conditions and thus avoid diflicult and critical circumstances in the future. We demand of the Freshmen that they follow in our footsteps. ,To the Alumni we bequeath ourselves, to work with fervor and zest for the common good and general welfare of our Alma Mater. To the Apostles of Dirtology we bequeath indelible markings on desks, window-panes, and blackboards as a reminder of the existence of the most active Senior Class. We hereby appoint as executors, any three teachers who believe them- selves capable of executing the contents of this, our last will. As evidence of their good faith and trust, the executors shall promise to eulogize the Senior Class of 1922 as an example for others to be guided by. In testimony of which, we, the said Class of 1922, have hereunto set our hands and seal this first day of June in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-two. THE SENIOR CLASS OF PERTH AMBOY HIGH SCHOOL. 'll U2 I 'J .Z Z Z '15 Ld P-1 Wilt ll li 9 The Class of l923 organized on Gctober IO, l921. The election of class officers was as' follows: President, jasper -Iohnsong Vice-I'resident. Ralph Iielikoveg Secrearv, Ruth Iinnnonsg Treasurer, Peter Grieve. XYith the assistance of a committee of four, the secretary framed the junior Constitution. Various committees were appointed by the President and a dance was held on December l6, which proved to be a success both socially and financially. On February 7. 1922, the Vice-President presided and the resignation of President johnson was read and accepted. Samuel Convery was elected to succeed jasper johnson. .X committee consisting ,of Emily Hozeny, Alex. Horoschak, joseph jellinek, was appointed by the treasurer to assist him in collecting the junior dues. Those elected and selected to represent the junior Class in the Annual were Lydia .-Xltschuler, Iilizabeth Tymrak, Howard Dieker, Alex. Horoschak. PSYCHO-ANALYSIS I've just heard a lecture on psycho-analysis, and, my dear. it was wonder- ful. The professor was so handsome, too, and you know, I saw him look at me twice. But anyway, the psycho-analysis. I don't quite remember what it was all about, but it was just thrilling. And I had on a new hat, too. I think he noticed it. It just expresses my mental complex. You see, no matter what is the trouble, you can explain it by Psycho- Analysis. Take Anna Siskincl's short skirts. She used to wear very long skirts and her complex has reacted against them. Or take Harlan L'ortelyou's freckles. XYhen Harlan was six, a man painted the house brown. Harlan's complex immediately acted on the sug- gestion, and he painted his face with the same paint. People didn't under- stand complexes, I guess, because poor Harlan was spanked. The paint stuck -in spots. Then Harry lielafsky. Well, the reason he's so fat is, he went to a circus and saw a living skeleton. His complex was so affected that he started to eat that minute, and has not stopped yet. Then, Alice Grillin. Do you know why she's so good-natured? NVell, it's because she was told she had wonderful dimples. Her complex acted on that. Now she's always smiling. The professor explained about lleatrice l'almer's being so tall. .lt seems N ? LJ E Q f her grandfather was a biologist. 'When Ida looked over his collection of grasshoppers her subconscious mentality decided to become as much like a grasshopper as possible. So far she's succeeded. Do you know why Primo Sacket always knows his Physics? When he took General Science, Mr. Eichlin made him write I must do my homework ten thousand times. Primo's complex at once grasped the idea. It made him do his homework from that day. I VVhy does Henry VVestcott make the basket every time? VVell, it's all in practice. When he was little, he had a slingshot, and he once missed a cat and hit his father. Since that time, Henry always shoots straight. And I've found out why Joe VVurtzel acts so sophisticated. QThe pro- fessor looked like Joe, only the professor is good lookingj. VVhen Joe was a poor, helpless infant he was taken to the Hippodrome. After he got home he was a hero for a while. I guess he told about it a million times. But you can't tell all about people by their pasts. Sonie are influenced Csub-consciously, of coursej by the future. Take Sophie Schafer. She doesn't believe in life after death, so she's having all of her's now. Bella VVedeen is like that, too. And Irma Stack. And some are influenced by the present. Ralph Belikove is afraid of girls because his English teacher keeps him in every night. Most girls keep you out every night, so Ralph's fear is groundless. But I can't explain it all the way the professor did. He was simply divine. I wonder if he's married. You know I was just dippy about VVal1ace Reid till I found he was married. He told us lots of other things, too. He told us why joseph jellinek always thinks he is right, why Leo Klein is so awfully cuteg and why Bessie Fleischman loves her teachers so much. It's because they love her. He even told us why Dora Fine never gets mad. And the reason Howard Dieker has no sense of humor. But I can't stop to explain now. He's giving another lecture this afternoon and I must get ready. So long. i lk Dk ,F ak Bk Oh, I've got a few minutes left after all. I'll tell you some more. There's a good reason, too, why Elsie P. never does Cicero. In a former incarnation she was Cicero's wife, and she doesn't think anything her ex- husband wrote is worth translating. t WVhy does joseph Kerr giggle? just because his sister used to tickle him when he was a baby, and he hasn't got through laughing yet. And what makes all the teachers like Bertha McDowell. lt's because she is such a -pleasing relief to the eye-especially after we look at some of the senior boys. Well, now I must go. Isn't psycho-analysis fine? 1. a ffl Sophumnres g -'-'ru-15 THE SOPHOMORE ODYSSEY love, my dear father, let us be seated on this ridge on Mount Olympus and talk of something which shall come to pass thousands of years hence. Yes, Minerva, the Muses speak of a race of men who are to come many, many years from now, and who will acquire success as high as Mount Olympus itself. Father, my wisdom foretells me that there shall be a c'ass of people known as 'The Class of 192-l' of the Perth Amboy High School. l.et us speak as though that time had already come to pass. The Class of '24, striving and laboring, conquering a'id advancing to that everlasting beam of lightiSuccess-is well on the road to the 'Hall of Fame' Minerva, canst thou prove to me that the Sophomore Class is achieving anything for which she can be placed in that 'Hall of Fame ?' Yes, love, here is a synopsis of the work accomplished by the class of '2-l. ln the September oi 1021 over one hundred. jolly, working, man-like students returned to their school full of spirit and ready to serve the motto, 'l.abor Omnia vincit.' livery time the honor roll was read a list of Sopho- mores was included. Here comes Mercury. X'Yhat can he want? Minerva, l. Mercury, God of gymnastics, recall to thee that my best athletes came from the Class of '24, The Sophomores were very well rep- resented in the varsity football, basketball, and baseball teams. XVas not 'Gene Mullen,' one of the four representatives of the '.'Xmboy High' at the l'enn Relays, a Sophomore? Ay, ay, thou art correct, Mercury, l almost overlooked that fact. l will continue with the story of the Class of '2-l. This was the first organized Sophomore class. Their president was Yale XVilner. The Sophomore dance held on February tenth, was a suc- cess and was one of the best dances of the year. The class was also well represented in the Junior Dramatic Club with Helene Counihan as president. Proud, indeed. was the class of her prize winners. Helene Counihan won a two and a half dollar gold piece for the best Sophomore essay on Armistice Day. Yale XYilner was awarded the lirst prize of Fifty dollars for the best Sophomore essay on Thrift , while Sarah Fithian was awarded second prize of twenty-five dollars on the same subject. love, are not these few facts suliicient proof that the Class of '24 is well on the road to Success? .-Xy, Minerva. Here comes Apollo who can tell us all. I, Apollo, God of Prophecy, hereby proclaim that the Class of '24 will always endeavor to have good school spirit, to help others, and above all to uphold the name of 'Twenty-four' and that of the Perth Amboy High School. 1-Wise N ll ll s 4' N 5 E T 77 :', Q l lk Q II 'Wu 9 J I .

XN'e filled about 10 assemblies. A great nmnber of us were Honor Students and many of the others had averages near 87? Altogether the Freshman class has been a very bright class. The Class of '25 has tried to boost every play, concert. game, fund, the Periscope. and the Annual in the High School. A number of the Freshmen are members of the orchestra, Dramatic Club, Glee Club. and the Debating Club. Next year we will subscribe for the Periscope and Annual and buy tickets to help the funds of the Senior Class and the athletic teams. etc., lO0'7b. Our Sophomore Dance next year will be the finest Amboy High has ever seen. The Freshman boys and girls have made a fine showing at all of the games in the High School. XVe have won a number of the football, volley ball, basketball, and baseball games, and not once did the upper classmen walk away with ns tucked under their arms. XVhen we lost we lost by a very few points. Next year with more practice and with the help of Miss Burns and Illr. VVaddell we'll win every game we play. just wait and see! There are quite a few artists in the Freshman Class, l.ester Dickson, and liorge Pedersen are two of them. XVith the help of Nl rs. Dannenhower we improve with each lesson and we have made a number of very good posters and drawings. The exhibition will contain some of the Freshman work in drawing and then you can see what artists we really are. Our girls are becoming better housekeepers and dressmakers as you will note at the exhibition. Each girl that elected sewing at the beginning of the term has made a dress and each one has certainly made hers well. Outside of school we Freshmen have boosted Amboy High to the skies. XYe have shown the right school spirit all the way through and we'll keep on showing the right spirit. The other classes in the High School will have to work hard to keep up with us for we are going to be the finest Sopho- more Class that has ever been in Perth Amboy High School. Q- SCU HC XX f .

When Charles XYurtzel was elected president of the Science Club for the year 1921-1022 he made a short speech in which he stated that with the help of the members he would try to make this a most successful year for the Club. Now. with the year not quite completed the Science Club can say that already success has been obtained. The maximum membership was maintained thru-out the year. very few members being dropped because of non-attendance. The publicity and pro- gram committees have done exceptionally well in their work. The lectures of the year were all interesting and worth while. .X com- plete list is as follows: Telepathy by Mr. Sturgis, Refining of Copper by Dr. Skaronsky, Taxidemy and Snakes by Rolland Main, Cyanide by l.ouis Sea- man, Radio Telephony, Harry Scharer: War Gases by Prof. liyers, Switzer- land by Dr. Abegg. The club was also entertained by a varied movie pro- gram thru the courtesy of Mr. l.efler and Mr. XYalker. The most talked-of of the Science Club's activities was the curiosity exhibit held at the l'ublic Library for two weeks. The snakes, salamander, silk, coal, colors, relics, shells, fish, and curios of all sorts made a display worthy of museum. Members of the Club relieved one another as guides during the different afternoons and nights on which the exhibition was held. From among those whose work made the exhibit a success, Mr. Xtfurtzel and Mr. Scharer deserve special mention. lt has not yet been decided to whom the Science Club medal for pro- liciency in Chemistry will be awarded. We know that it will be ha-rd to do, but we sincerely hope that in future years, the Science Club will be as successful as it has been in the past year. at TIC w as D W CLUB 1 U ' in The Dramatic Club this semester stands out as one of the most etlicient and accomplished organizations of the school. XVhen tryouts were hcl-1, we were intensely proud to recognize so many ardent Henry Clays and so many enthusiastic Daniel Welasters. This year. due to the number of excellent dramatists and elecutionists, the organization was obliged to split up into the Senior and Junior Dramatic Clubs. The meetings of the Senior Club are held every other Thursday in Room 202. Here one can find chattering groups of actors and actresses discussing various subjects in a very artistic CU manner. Under the excellent direction of our president, the meetings are carried on very efficiently. Lastly, the Club is always delighted with a fine program in which the performers show their unrivaled ability. U Under the combined ettorts and cooperation of coach. cast. and club, the hit of the season, and the rave of the town was the great social and financial success of the tenth play, The Irresistible Marniadukef' Marma- duke was remarkably staged by the prominent Perth .'Xrnboy actor, Huyler Romond, while the heroine, Patricia O'Brien. was well characterized in the person of Evelyn Nickenig. Among the other members of the cast were: Mortimer Gregory. .. .... Le Roy Sturn Lady Althea ....... ...Lucille joseph Lady Susan. .. . ...Mary Larcombe Dr. O'Keefe ......... .... I Edward Patten Christopher Deacon... .... Joseph Schwartz Miss Wyley .......... ...Dorothy VVatson VValter, the Valet... ....... Ben Selbst Dawson ......... .... li leanor Levine Paperhanger .. .. Parker Nielsen The Dramatic Club can proudly and fearlessly boast that the play this year was one of the best ever produced. Great credit must be given to thc coach, Miss Stauffer, who generously devoted both time and energy to make the play what it was. Underclassmen, take the advice from a senior-if you want to be the hero or a shero of the senior play, join the Dramatic Club at the first op- portunity, for you know, It is the early bird that, etc., etc. THE HI-Y CLUB During the month of October, the survivors qf last year's Hi-X. Club awoke to the fact that they would have to get into motion, if anything was to be done during the year. Immediately they appointed their advisors and elected their officers. The advisors were: Faculty, Mr. Sturgis, Y. M. C. A., Mr. Fenby Scott, and Alumni, Herman Nielsen, '2l. The officers were: President, R. Nielsen, 'ZZQ Vice-President. H. Romond, '2Zg Secretary. IC. Cheshire, '22, later changed to H. Jensen, '22, and Treasurer, G. Munn, '22. This accomplished, the' Club began to carry out its purpose, To create, main- tain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. . The first event of direct relationship to the school, was a Friendship Campaignnl during November for the purpose of creating a friendly atmos- phere among the students. This was terminated by a Freshman Reception at the HY so that the Freshmen might become more familiar with the upper class-men and thus at the beginning develop a school spirit they can carry 7 with them throughout their stay here. In the meantime the club held its regular meetings every other Thurs- day at the Y with a supper during each intervening week. There promi- nent men, both local and out of town, gave talks on the various problems which daily confront us, so that we might understand them and know how to meet them. VVe also came hrst in a contest to secure money to aid the unfortunate boys in foreign countries. jBesides those directly associated with the club, the next event was the Welcome Home reception given those fellows home from college during Christmas week. It produced a spirit of friendliness and recalled to them pleasant memories of their stay in P. A. H. S. During January some of the fellows attended a Hi-Y Conference in New Brunswick. Besides experiencing a rather exciting trip through a blinding snow storm, they brought home with them many new ideas for the better- ment of the club and the school. During this month there was inaugurated a series of discussions on An Older Boy's Problem, and we learned much from them. Following this, besides having a lecture given to the boys of the school by Dr. Winfield Scott Hall, our first school dance was held. Although not a very elaborate affair, every one enjoyed it and all agreed that it would pass the censor. Then during our Find Yourself Campaign came a talk by Mr. Cameron Beck, Personnel Director of the New York Stock Exchange. And it surely was some talk! Remember? What you are to be tomorrow, today you are becoming. Don't forget itg it may determine your career. The last big event was the gold medal award for the best essay on The Best All Arougkl High School Student. That is what the Hi-Y seeks to develop. The Club. has now become affiliated with the International Secondary School Boys Movement, which is trying to do all over the world what we are trying to do here. We still have another step to climb, but that is for next year's club. We hope that what we have done during the year has made Amboy High just a little better place than before. If so, then we feel that our efforts have not been in vain. If that little is worked upon and enlarged by an ever growing club, it will not be long before our school will be the finest in the State.

Led by our new coach, Mr. XVaddell, we had class football. class basketball, varsity basketball, track, and baseball. The track team ran at the Penn relays but did not place. The basketball team played many new schools this year including St. Bene1lict's Prep., and New Jersey School for the Deaf and Dumb. The baseball team had a very good schedule, playing many of its old rivals. There is enough material left in school now to warrant wonderful teams for the coming year, not only in, basketball, but also in football. track and baseball, as only a few letter men of each team are graduating. FOOTBALL For the first time in a number of years football was played in Amboy High. As it was new to many of the boys only a class series was arranged which was won by the Seniors.

The All School Team this year was determined by the ability of each player on the defense and offense, and not by the fact that he played one position throughout the year. All of the underclassmen now in school are expected to return in the fall and by the showing made in the series it is expected that Amboy High will put out a football team as in days of yore. BASEBALL This year's baseball team has started for the county pennant with a rush by beating South River High 6-3. South River High won the basketball championship, but a different story is expected in baseball. The men who played on the team and who are expected to get letters are: Kocheck, Captain, Rhodes, Seaman F., Niedzwiecki, Wfestcott, Rasmus- sen, Patten E., Patten J., Sladkus, Larson H., McCabe, Hutton, DeAndrea, Johnson. BASKETBALL The Basketball series was-one of the best seen by any class in Amboy High. Every game was fast and well played, showing the fine coaching that the men have had. The juniors, coached by Mr. Wisrmer, went thru the series without a loss, and were thereby declared champions of the 1921-1922 series.

The season started with a volley ball series. In these games the Freshmen and Sophomores showed that they had some real training when they each won two games from ,the upper classes. Then came the inter-class basketball series. This time the Seniors were not to be put down by their smaller and younger sisters, so they cleaned up the slate. The weight and height of the older girls greatly handicapped the Freshmen who put a very small team on the floor and so were shut out of the series. ' - This year's varsity was the greatest team ever turned out at Amboy High. There were two factors that made the season so successful: First, Miss Burns, who coached Amboy's best team, second, the girls, who are the champions of Middlesex County, having defeated their best opponent, New Brunswick, in two games. In games with Roselle High, Champions of Union County, and Asbury Park High, Champions of Ocean County, we broke even, each game being hard fought. Many of the underclass men are left in school to start our next year's team and with a nucleus as we have, Amboy High is sure of another great team for the next year. Perth Amboy ............

Realizing that this work would have been a colossal failure without the hearty co-operation of the Faculty, the members of the Board, and the pupils of P. A. H.
