PERISCOPE PERTH AMBOY HIGH SCHOOL PERTH AMBOY, NEW JERSEY Nineteen Hundred Thirty Eight FOREWORD Youth, the most glorious gift of God ever given to mankind! Ponce de Leon searched for it in vain; women cherish it as their most prized treasure; the angelic faces of small children beam with its loveliness; old men will forever reach for it with unrewarded efforts, and we, the Class of 1938, are the rich possessors of it. Classes which in the past have been graduated have possessed this quality too. Does our youth signify the same things theirs did? In the spirit of fun, love of life, it does. We have shared those things so typical of youth: we sang our school songs with all our hearts, cheered madly for the Crimson and White, danced rhythmically to the latest swing band, teased romantic couples, and laughed almost too easily at any slight provocation of humor. Gayety and freedom have filled every day of our four years, four years overflowing with the companion of youth, enjoyment. Even our grandmothers were familiar with these activities; balls, picnics, and hay rides were not unheard of in their days. Youth will never change. It is in another sense that the youth of today differ from the youth of the past. It is our great desire for learning and for finding the reality in the world about us that distinguishes us from the preceding generations. We are no longer satisfied to sit back and take things for granted; we question and criticize. World-wide problems have become our problems. No longer is it the case of being seen and not heard. We are extremely confident in ourselves, and America is confident in us. She is depending on us to keep her forever democratic, free from the various isms' of the European world. For is it not upon the youth that the foreign countries are depending to continue successfully their type of government? We have made education the most important factor in our existence; without it we are lost. Upon graduating we intend to study further, elevating ourselves above all classes of the past. Parents are more desirous to support the demands of today's youth for learning. Universities are crowded with young people who struggle and sacrifice to acquire a broader education. Indeed, education is an important factor of modern youth. We have been taught to see every side of all problems. For this we are thankful to our modern instructors who have assisted us in a manner which was not available to students of the past. They are anxious to teach us the truth, whatever it may be. This is the source of our surprising broadmindedness. The girls as well as the boys of our class are prepared to enter the adult world. This is our Modern Youth. It is then fitting that the theme for the last activity we share together, the last thought, should be associated with a subject we are so well acquainted with—Youth.

Though years may pass, the way be long, With many a bruising fall, Then faint at first, but growing strong, There rings thy clarion call, Arise, fight on for victory!

We teachers of French, German, Spanish and Latin feel that the languages should occupy a place in the curriculum because in their study are inherent practical, intellectual, cultural, ethical and recreational values. We endeavor to stress the understanding of other peoples—what they do and why they do it. We know of no better way to accomplish this understanding than by the study of languages. This kind of understanding will serve as a basis for intelligent international relations. Page Twelve FACULTY W. Earl Gehman, A. B._______________________Latin James Fraser Chalmers, M. A.

It also helps pupils to see how in literature personal and social problems have been solved and are being solved. Pupils who show some originality win positions on the staff of the school paper, the yearbook, or the school news page of the city newspaper. Elective courses in speech training are an important part of our work. Pupils with ability are afforded opportunity to appear in our dramatic productions, or to compete with student actors from other schools. Page Fourteen FACULTY Rose G. Jacobson, Lift.

Differentiated courses of study are provided for non-college students. Pupils receive advice as to the number and types of mathematics courses best suited to their needs. Stress is laid on the appreciation of mathematics in life situations, on functional relationships, on the history of the development of mathematics, and on the fundamental role mathematics plays in all phases of modern civilization.

The training the Manual Arts department gives prepares pupils for contacts certain to occur in their lives. The Fine Arts Course includes the media: illustration, murals, friezes, design, graphic art, sculpture and handicrafts to encourage creative expression. Household Arts wants to make the students intelligent about the role food plays and desirous of making their food a factor contributing to health. We seek to develop appreciation of the factors which contribute to one's personal appearance; to help the girl select and care for clothing and to develop skill in garment construction.

The librarian must prove to the faculty that the quality of their own instruction can be greatly improved through cooperation with the library. Instruction in the use of books and libraries is given to the Freshman and Senior classes. The school library aims to stimulate reading, and the Library Club, besides helping with the regular desk and routine work, does much to popularize reading and develop a permanent interest in books.

But now through silent corridors Reverberating long There came a rising chatter That announced the Freshman throng. We wandered through the labyrinth; Confusion reigned supreme, While we painfully adjusted To the busy new routine. In spite of Mr. Ramsey’s words We climbed the northern stair; We rang for elevators And we got in people's hair. Then suddenly the bedlam ceased. Reciprocating, slow, The ponderous pendulum of time Swung us to and fro. Soon we were swaggering Sophomores Flaunting forth our might, For bluffing frightened Freshmen Is a Sophomore's delight. This year we went to games and shows And entered several clubs, But dances held a terror For us heavy-footed dubs. June came into sight once more, So speedily it blurred. A drastic metamorphosis Has finally occurred. It doomed to the realm of memories Our under-classmen fun. And left us in a higher wor d, Our Junior year begun. Dancing lessons during Gym, Friends increasing fast, Interesting new subjects To be studied hard and passed. This year fled just as quickly As the other two before, But its richer recollections We shall cherish ever more. Then arrived that blissful day Not many months ago. Ecstatically we walked the halls, Put on our loftiest show. For weren't we the Seniors, Highest of them all? Now again we're nearing June And graduation looms. We'll leave the dear old building With mingled joys and glooms; Joys of sweet remembrance For the happiest days we knew, Glooms that these departing days Must be so short and few.

The Senior Class of Perth Amboy High School DAGMAR NIELSEN, RICHARD DELMAR, and ROBERT SCHUMANN Page Seventy-one FLEETING MOMENTS How I wish, when looking at the clock That I could somehow control the timely tock, That I could push the hours far behind To erase this benumbed sensation that invades my mind. 'Tis hard to believe four years have sped away; It seems we were Freshmen only yesterday; Yet time with its endless years and days Commands us to go our reluctant ways. Why must we keep thinking of all that is past, And why, oh why is this year our last? Why can't we forget that time must march on And leave us with memories of days that are gone? The familiar corridors, the unforgettable halls Which echoed our laughter and joyous calls Now behold our sorrow and our tear-dimmed eyes And listen to our trembling voices bid their last good-byes. VERNE HUDANICH and EDNA LIFSREN . EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES Perth Amboy High School, we can proudly say, no longer is the abandoned homestead with quiet halls and deserted classrooms at two-thirty. On the contrary, at dismissal a scene of great activity greets one's eyes. The day is just beginning for a great number of students. This phase of high school life will be remembered long, long after the memory of books, classes and teachers has faded. The success of the extra-curricular activity is due to the various teachers who have offered their free time to advise different groups, and who have not shirked their duties once they have undertaken them. The students, too, have worked hand in hand, taking great pride and pleasure in their achievements. Every year new clubs are being formed, each having some definite purpose which contributes to the further advancement of school life and education. The Junior Red Cross Council, of which every student is a member, played a great part in aiding the needy and in other social work. Their chief aim was to raise money for their eye glass fund with which they secured eye glasses for the needy students. The Dramatic Club contributed toward the purchase of a curtain for the stage in the auditorium, using the proceeds of their annual play, which this year was New Fires by Charles Quimby Burdette. The Chorus, one of the largest groups, during the year presented many fine concerts. Their most important activity was a trip to Atlantic City to represent Perth Amboy in the All-State Chorus. This organization has taught many students to love and appreciate music. The Debating Society, that group of eloquent speakers, has added much prestige to the school, representing us throughout the state. Their members have entered many Speech and Declamation contests, ending their season with the thrilling State Debating contest, sponsored by the Forensic League. The many language clubs, French, Spanish and German, have conducted their meetings in their particular tongue, enabling the student to become better acquainted with the languages. French, German, and Spanish country life were often discussed at meetings along with other numerous subjects which aided the students in securing a better understanding of the languages. It is almost impossible to mention the name of every group taking part, for there is not a subject or interest of the student which is not represented in the busy scene. Which one has done the most for our Alma Mater would be a matter of opinion, for each one has accomplished some admirable task.

HIGH SCHOOL HISTORY CLUB Joanna Anderson, President Mildred Ceres, Vice-President Isabel Smith, Secretary Page Ninety-six YOUTH PROGRESSES As we review the recent serial that had been shown in the nearby theaters, we find the first chapter picturing a group of timid Freshmen entering an ivy-covered high school. How we laughed at their shyness and blunders! They passed soon, however, through the proverbial stage of looking for elevators and trying to buy chapel tickets. Then they began to participate in school activities. Inhibitions were lost at the beginning of the football season and they lustily joined in the cheering. There were dances, a few clubs to which they could belong, freshman athletics and baseball, besides serious study which was the real purpose of this group. Another class that was soon to join these were entering similar activities in another school. Here this episode ends. What has been gained by it? A solid basis for later progress. The next chapter shows the same youngsters a few inches taller and a little more intelligent. They now have their turn to play jokes at the expense of the poor incoming Freshmen. This chapter, however, tells a story of rapid advancement. The football season shows Bancer running long yards to a position on the all-county eleven. Then Central-Jersey Championship sweaters appeared on a few of our boys; we had seen our cheerleaders spurring them on to the award. Then come many others into the foreground: Periscope writers, artist Babulak, declaiming Juliet, club members, Jayvee players, track stars, and pole-vaulter McNitt. The baseball season brought forth Lefty and Fozzy” on the pitcher's mound, and Dabby at third base. Then came the end of the term, but what a change has been wrought! From the little seed a young tree has grown. The interval between the chapters produced a change in this group. It had gained a little dignity and a bit of sophistication. Although at first these qualities might be hard to find under a very apparent fun-loving exterior, they were, however, present. The group soon made it clear that it would continue to progress. The girls started the ball rolling by winning the inter-class volley ball championship. Then Dabczynski and Bancer became bright lights in a rather mediocre football season when they gained positions on the all-county team. In the ranks of the cheerleaders were many familiar faces. New clubs and several offices were open to these Juniors. Basketball had its stars in Dabby, Reick, Lefty, and Bigos. Track also had its honored few. Such wide extra-curricular interests did not detract their attention from studies with Allen setting the example in this field. In the spring, baseball again found stars in this versatile group. As this third chapter of the film ends, we can more fully realize how far these youths have progressed since they first entered this school. We have seen unknowns rise to prominence and leadership. They will continue in their endeavor throughout their senior year; then at college in some instances, and finally out in the world. As for the identity of these youths, you have probably guessed they are the members of the class of 1939. They have proved that youth can progress by progressing! ANN HUBBARD, '39 SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY Hello, everybody! This is station SOPH, heard every day from eight to two-thirty. Remember? Yep, you're right. That's the big noise you hear every day out in the halls, or at least a part of it. The Sophs can let loose at last, for they now can boss the little Freshmen. Of course, the Sophs don't. (Ahem!) Last Autumn, along with rusty leaves, bright red apples, and slightly nipped noses came a few hundred creatures, blustery, but still a wee bit fearful of upperclassmen's laughter. Do you know who they were? Correct the first time; they were the Sophomores! How enthusiastic they were! They plunged into piles of Algebra, Latin, and Page Ninety-seven the usual subjects. How good it was to study again after so much summer laziness! October and realization! Homework wasn't quite so enthusiastically received as it was in September. Ah. but such is life! Thanksgiving Day came; also turkey, pumpkin pie, tummy aches, recovery, AND school again. Report cards too! Oh, such shivering in shoes and shaking hands! Should they look? Might as well! Oh! What a relief for some; and what grief for others! Oh well, another month, another card. Soon the basketball season crept upon them. Many of the sophomore boys made the Jayvee Team, just as some had succeeded in getting on the football team earlier in the term. The sophomores were well represented in this year’s athletics; and were they proud! A few light snowfalls gave them an opportunity to take advantage of skating and sleigh riding in December and January. More basketball, and also more fun still awaits them! How good it is to know they will be upperclassmen next year! How thrilling it will be really to go to upperclass chapel! Anxious as they are to start next year they cannot help feeling regret at leaving their underclassmen days behind them. They can now look back upon them with pride in their achievements. Well, toodle-oo now 'till next year, and don't forget to wish the sophomores luck! HELEN NYSAARD, '40 FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY In September came the transplanting! Seven hundred freshmen from the elementary grades, as green as expected, were put into new ground: High School. We had been the rulers in grammar school and we felt small and yet uncomfortably conspicuous when we entered this high and mighty building. How we were tormented by those fun-loving upper-classmen! The sophomores had just stepped from their lowly greenish cast and were not quite so demanding. We were told that a chapel ticket had to be bought and some of us actually brought money to purchase one! And never, our experienced elders instructed us, speak to an upper-classman unless spoken to! We listened with open mouths and popping eyes to tales of the torture in the dark, bleak detention room. Some of us came in contact with the aforesaid room quite often. It was some thrill to go to basketball games and cheer for our very own freshmen on the Jayvee team! It stirred up our school spirit to encourage our players with a ripping yell! We felt proud of them when we heard spectators praise tha freshman players and predict a big future for them. Surges of pride even came forth at the sight of freshman water boys for the football team! Obviously we had club spirit; Latin pupils organized a club called the Circulus Intimis which surged forth with Mr. Szymborski guiding it. Mrs. Keller with a group of enthusiasts met weekly to do welfare work in the name of the So and So Club. Those of us who were interested in writing, drawing, dramatics, and music did our utmost to notice and to be noticed. Soon our first year in Perth Amboy High will be something of the past. Will this year go by forgotten? How can it when each year a new group of freshmen will cautiously take our place? Perhaps we'll put them through the seemingly never ending agonies endowed to persons in their positions. We'll probably get great delight in watching them squirm under our persecutions. But in reality we'll be seeing a reflection of what we ourselves once looked like; the so-called lowly freshman. We haven't developed inferiority complexes in worrying over our low position because we realize that we're an important class, for the freshman class is the seed of what is to produce a hardy, strong Senior Class. LUCILLE GOLDBERGER, '41 Page Ninety-eight XPORTX FOOTBALL Three victories, two ties and three defeats tell the football story in a short sentence. But this is not the real story. It does not show the true power of the big Crimson team. One would say such a record was a poor one, and it truly is for Perth Amboy. But according to the standings of high school teams released by Prof. V. Colliton, Perth Amboy was designated as the thirteenth best team in the state for 1937, and it still holds on to fourth place for a five-year average. First actual practice was held one week before the first game and the Amboy team went into the game without having done any scrimmaging and with only a few basic plays in their repertoire. On September 25th, the team took the field against Long Branch. Although rather green and inexperienced, the Panthers made the most of their breaks and won out by a 9—0 score. Journeying next to Emerson, the Panthers thoroughly drubbed Emerson in a game in wnich the entire squad played. Lane, Bancer and Galetfa each scored once while Emerson held scoreless. The final score was 18—0. Journeying to Asbury Park on October 9th the team ran roughshod over the Blue Bishops winning by a 20—6 score. Even though they were victorious, the Panthers suffered a severe blow when Dave Perry, left tackle, spark plug of the line and acting Captain that day, was injured. Perry suffered a broken leg and was laid up for the rest of the season. The first score came in the first quarter when Frank Bancer, leading a 50-yard drive down the field, tore loose from the 18-yard line and scored. A sharp pass to Dabczynski tallied the extra point. Asbury immediately came back with a score by Pront. This left the score at 7—6. Coming back in the third quarter, Bancer again set up another touchdown by carrying the ball on a 32-yard run to the 3-yard line from where he scored on the next play. Lipnick then was put in the game and kicked the extra point. The fourth period found Galetfa heaving a pass to Bancer who after some fine running crossed the goal. This was the last score of the game as Lipnick's try for the extra point failed. A muddy, soggy field, the rain pouring down, and a heavy Woodbridge team dimmed Amboy's hope. The Panther team, unable to shake loose any of its ground gainers, was stalled. The heroic work of the Amboy linesmen staved off an Amboy defeat. Woodbridge had four tries for a touchdown from the one-yard line and failed. The team has to be praised for holding out so well, the final score being even, 0—0. Page One Hundred One The New Brunswick Zebras next came to town led by Andy Beno. New Brunswick, an overwhelming pre-game favorite and thought to be able to win easily, was frustrated in attempts to score until the last minute when a fumble by Amboy on its own five-yard line set up a Zebra score. With 30 seconds to go, Beno took the ball over and the game ended. The score, 0—6. Showing a reversal and playing rather badly, the Panther team dropped the next game by a 7—0 score to South River. South River’s lone score came in the last quarter when after a spirited 45-yard march, Mate, captain of the Maroons, took the ball over to a score from the one-yard line. Lane and Feltovic were Amboy's shining lights. The traditional Thanksgiving Day battle with Carteret was the next on the schedule. After an hour's battle and a thrilling game, the two teams were right back where they started. It was a fine way for the game to end for the teams, for both had played with all heart and soul. Carteret started the scoring when after a 51-yard drive, Fresiak crossed the last stripe for a score. The try for extra point was blocked. The valiant Amboy team, not to be discouraged, came right back when Galetta passed to Bancer whose play brought the ball to the 4-yard line. Two tries netted a touchdown and Lipnick booted the extra point. The end of the half found the Panthers firmly perched on Carteret's goal line. Taking up their work again in the third quarter, Bancer, after a beautiful piece of running, again crossed the goal. The fourth quarter found the Ramblers playing basketball.” Short passes put Carteret on the 4-yard line from where Husiak ran around end for a touchdown. A moment later King threw a pass to Kopin to tie the score 13—13. The final and last game found the Panthers pitted against Irvington who had lost only to Bloomfield. Playing without Bancer who was injured in the first few plays, the Amboy team held Irvington team to a 6—0 score. A touchdown pass to Dabczynski was called back because of an off-side. Amboy's repeated attempts to score were frustrated by the alera Irvington team and the season was climaxed for Perth Amboy.

BASKETBALL In 1938 Coach Stanley Rosen, with a nucleus of two veterans from last year, developed a fighting courageous team, if not a championship team for Perth Amboy High. Although the record shows nine games won and ten lost, consideration must be given to the fact that six losses were by the narrow margin of one basket. The varsity five was composed of Deter and Reick, forwards: Dabczynski and Bigos, guards, and Sewitch at center. The remainder of the squad was made up of Lipnick, O’Buck, French, Lamprinos, Lucas, Weingarten and Mucinski. The season opened well with two victories from the Alumni and St. Mary's. It seemed that there was much to expect from this group of stalwarts. Unfortunately, the next three games against South River, Curtis High, and New Brunswick were lost by the narrow margin of two points. Bad luck seemed to stay right with us and we were dropped by one of the foremost teams in New York, Seward Park. In the next game, the Panthers easily defeated Woodbridge and we seemed on our way again. Then came the foremost team in the state, Weequahic's Indians, who after a nip and tuck battle for three periods finally scalped us late in the fourth quarter. After the Weequahic loss, we defeated Passaic, only to lose to Asbury Park in the next encounter. Then the Red and White warriors beat a smooth passing Thomas Jeffer- Page One Hundred Three son five. The following four games resulted in two losses against Long Branch and New Brunswick, plus two victories against South River and Woodbridge. But again two successive losses were inflicted by Garfield and St. Mary's. The Lions game was featured by the remarkable performance of their star forward, Bob Handerhan, who scored twenty-seven out of his team's thirty-five points. The regular season was closed with wins over strong Morristown and Irvington quintets. In an after-season state tournament fray, the Panthers were turned back for the third time in the same season by the Zebras of New Brunswick. Due credit should be given to the offensive ability of Deter and Bigos, the defensive ability of Sewitch and Dabczynski and the floor work of Reick. Credit should also be granted to the remainder of the squad for their general co-operative spirit. While graduation sharply cuts into the team by taking Sewitch, Deter and Lip-nick, the horizon for 1939 is comparatively bright as all of the other members of the squad will return. 29 The Season's Record Alumni 17 33 St. Mary’s 15 35 South River 36 26 Curtis 28 22 New Brunswick 24 20 Seward Park 32 53 Woodbridge 23 22 Weequahic 31 27 Passaic 26 18 Asbury Park 26 39 Thomas Jefferson 27 22 Long Branch 23 24 New Brunswick 45 36 South River 25 36 Woodb. idge 22 23 Garfield 31 33 St. Mary's 35 34 Morristown 19 23 New Brunswick 33 37 Irvington 26 Total—9 Won, 10 Lost.

TRACK Coming back from the Penn Relays last spring, where the Amboy relay team, after winning their heat, lost out in the finals, the track team encountered Metuchen and Woodbridge in a triangular meet. Perth Amboy was returned the victor by a large margin over Metuchen, with Woodbridge bringing up the rear. Encountering New Brunswick next, the Amboy track team went down to defeat by the thin margin of two points. South River was met next, and after battling evenly all the way the outcome of the meet was determined by the broad jump. It was the second year in a row that this had happened. South River was able to garner enough points to win the meet by a 46—44 score. Journeying to Long Branch for the Central Jersey Championships, the Panther track team tied for fourth in the total point standing. Gathering points for the Amboy team were Arne Karlbon, Clem Swanick, Charles Richardson, Frank Suto, Tony Chizmadia, W. O'Buck and Tony DeRasmi. On Memorial Day the Panthers competed at New Brunswick in the Annual County Championships. The usual close battle took place and after the point total seesawed every conceivable way, New Page One Hundred Pile Brunswick came out on top. They were closely followed by the Panther team, with South River and Metuchen following in that order. Perth Amboy gathered points on the performances of Arne Karlbon, Clem Swanick, Tony DeRasmi, Charles Richardson, William O'Buck, Tony Chizmadia, Frank Suto and Ted Roman. This meet closed the 1937 outdoor season for Perth Amboy. During the summer the Board of Education purchased for the track team a board track which was set up at Wonderland Park. There under the tutelage of Mr. Leo Klein the track team has been working out. The first indoor track meet came in early December in New York. This was the La Salle Prep School Meet. Here the track team was not able to break into the point column because of the tough competition. Journeying next to the Stuyvesant meet, the Panther relay team running in the 880-yard relay won their heat and placed fifth in a fast race, he Dickinson meet was next on the schedule. At this meet the only one able to get anywhere was Charles Richardson who won his heat in the 440-yard dash and placed fifth in the tinal at the Sunday Call Meet in Newark. Perth Amboy broke into the point column for the first time this winter. Robert Seesock placed fourth in the New Jersey 70-yard freshman championships and Charles Richardson, again scoring for Amboy, placed third in the 440-yard dash. The National Championships came up next at Madison Square Garden. Here the Amboy track team performed the best that any Amboy track team ever did at Madison Square Garden. Frank Suto tied for fifth in the high jump but lost out under the new rules. Johnny Lane, passing the shot put for Amboy, ranked sixth in the final standing. The relay team running in the 880-yard relay won their heat and placed fifth in the final. The State meet came next at Newark where Johnny Lane tossed himself into fifth place in the shot put. Charles Richardson again placed in his specialty, the 440-yard dash. Perth Amboy tied for eighth place with four points. This meet concluded the regular indoor track season for Coach Klein's pupils. The team is now preparing for the outdoor season. With just about the biggest and best schedule coming up, the team is looking forward to a successful season. The team is being managed by William Bradley, assisted ably by John Quinn. The outdoor schedule follows: April M—Interclass April 23—Long Branch Relays, Long Branch April 29 and 30—Penn Relays, Philadelphia May 5—South River, Away May 7—Princeton Interscholastics. Princeton May 10—Quadrangular Meet at South Orange, Columbia, New Brunswick, Metuchen and Perth Amboy May 14—Lafayette, Easton May 17—Asbury Park, Home May 20—New Brunswick, Home May 28—Central Jersey, Long Branch May 30—County Meet, New Brunswick May 31—World Labor Meet, Randall's Island June 4—State Championships, Montclair T. W. S ATT UR Page One Hundred Six TENNIS CLUB Left to right: Bernard Asman, Joseph Barber, Sidney Bewitch, Bernard Belikove, Theodore Avchen. Coach Donald Wolfe Captain....................................Sidney Sewitch Members—Theodore Avchen, Bernard Asman, Joseph Barber, and Bernard Lelikove. TENNIS With a team composed of veterans, Coach Donald Wolfe is looking forward to a banner season in 1938. Unfortunately this article will go to press before the season's schedule has been completed, but the teams that are most likely to be met are: South River, Trenton, Metuchen, Asbury Park, Long Branch, and Roselle. This formidable schedule will give the Panthers a chance to compete for state honors, which was unfortunately not given to us in 1937 because of lack of competition with Class A schools even though an enviable record of eight won and two lost was recorded. This year's team will most likely find Captain Sheppy Sewitch at the number one post, while the other four posts will be a wide open race between Tex Avchen, Bernie Asman, Joe Barber, Bernie Belikove. All of the aforementioned, however, have a very good chance of upsetting Sewitch and getting into the number one position. Page One Hundred Seven BASEBALL SUMMARY Last season (1937) the Panther baseball team won eleven of their eighteen games for a percentage of .61 I. Playing with last year's ball team were: Lloyd Reick, Steve Galetta, Steve Bielen, Joe Jugan, Eddie Dabczynski, Frank Bancer, Hogan Larson, Joe Marra, Babinchek, Walt Pazula and Johnny Krilla. Back with this year's squad will be Reick, catching: Galetta, pitching: Jugan and Dabczynski all playing the infield. As practice has not yet started, we are unable to say before going to press who will fill the other open positions. Some of the other positions will probably fall among the following: Brad Deter, BUT French, Frank Nicas, George Rebovich, and Henry Wisnewski. The schedule for the 1938 season is as follows: April 27—Hillside _________________________ Away April 28__________________________________ Open May 2—Trenton_______________________________Away May A—South River__________________________ Home May 6—Carteret ____________________________ Away May 9—New Brunswick_______________________ Home May I I—Asbury Park ________________________Home May 14—Irvington __________________________ Home May 16—Saint Mary’s _______________________ Home May 18—New Brunswick______ ___ Away May 20—Woodbridge _____________ - Away May 2A—Columbia ___________________________ Home May 25—South River___ Away May 27—Carteret_____________________________Home May 30—Woodbridge _________________________ Home June I—Asbury Park__________________________Away June A—St. Mary's ______________________ - Away The baseball squad will also participate in the annual county championship series. The schedule, although not as long as last year's, is a tougher one. But this should not stop the Panthers, for, with a veteran battery and eye-catching prospects, the season should be brilliant. The squad this year will be managed by Howell Solt assisted by Fat Eisner and Walt Bobisca. TED SATTUR Page One Hundred Eight GIRLS' INTERCLASS SPORTS Although little publicized and less exciting than boys' sports, the girls' athletic curriculum instills initiative and the desire for victory in the participants. Outsiders do not display much interest in these athletic activities, but to those competing they mean recognition in the girls' division. From the beginning of October to the end of May on certain afternoons, the girls' gym is ablaze with excitement—the tossing of the ball, the pushing, holding, and charging of the players, and finally, the goal, whatever it may be. As though a custom, the senior teams retain the honors that have been received each year. In volleyball last fall, however, the fates, in the form of the junior squad, turned against the older girls. They gained the interclass volleyball championship when they vanquished the Freshmen, Sophomore, and Senior teams. The tatter victory was gained in an exciting three-game series. Although dejected after this humiliation, the seniors came back with a smile when the basketball finals were played off. They re-established themselves in the victory bracket by defeating the heretofore unbeaten junior team by the score of 14—-7. The victors proved a strong team and played a forceful and fast-moving game. The cool, calm, and collected seniors scored on the juniors with vengeance. The Varsity squad, comprised of Dorothy Davis, Maryann Gengor, and Ruth Kosene on the scoring end; Vilma Ellis, Kathryn Olinyk, and Mildred Carthy in the center; Verne Ftudanich, Captain, Florence Meek, and Gladys D'Eustachio in the guard positions, were awarded small letter P's as an insignia of the victory. The close of the basketball season also marks the finish for the golf instruction classes and the beginning of tennis. Yes indeed, the girls participate in all sports. The equipment is furnished by the school and the girls have lots of fun learning the fundamentals of these national pastimes. With the tennis courts at their disposal, the girls use them to good advantage in practicing with the racquets. In fact, a tennis team may be formed and a tournament started as a precedent. These instructions are given in study periods and chevrons are given to the players. After a lapse of a few weeks, our girl athletes again report to the gym for soccer practices and games. Here the girls use legs, shoulders, and even their heads to stop the ball from passing over the lines. Emerging from this with many a stiff muscle and bruised limb, the girls follow up with kickball, which is the nearest the girls come to playing baseball. It works under the same principle with the players placed in the same positions. To top off the girl's athletic year, a track meet is held for hopeful enthusiasts. Miss Alice Bjork and Miss Arnita Kozusko once again led the girls after their expert leadership during the year. The outstanding track stars are Verne Hudanich, Lydia Foster, and Vilma Ellis. Who knows, but we might find some hidden talent around the gym. The winners of the events are rewarded with chevrons for each win. The swimming facilities of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. M. H. A. are used during the course of the year by the girls who enjoy that sport. Each time the pool is used by the girls a slip is signed by the instructor and turned in at the gym office. After receipt of twelve of these swimming slips, a chevron is received. Also indulged in are badminton, something new for the girls, calisthenics and folk-dancing, which are enjoyed in the gym classes. Now it is easy to see that the girls are keeping up with the bovs in the way of physical and mental development, coordination of movements and sportsmanship. Let it be known that the girls' place is now on the field, track, and court. RUTH KOSENE Page One Hundred Nine THE LAST WORD The greatest poet or the most able orator couid not find words to express the deep feeling within the heart of every senior as graduation draws near. The years have flown so rapidly, years filled with so much pleasure, that we regret leaving them behind. Our paths in life will differ; each one will go his own way into the world. It will make no difference where the path may lead; the memories of these years will not fade. We have this common tie binding us togethar. Let us not show the sadness within our hea'ts; we need not say goodbye. Let us instead part with these gay words of all youth, bidding each other, Until we meet again, Cheerio! % % CLASS OF 1938 Be Up to Date LEARN a profession not hit by depression BEAUTY CULTURE is now at the top TOWERS trained operators are the best of the lot Join the school that’s going places Why!
