LONSKY In dedicating this year's Milestone, we, the class of 1958, wish to show our appreciation for the unflagging effort and continuous interest that one person put forth on our behalf. As a science teacher and as our class adviser for four years, he showed an individual interest in each one of us. He helped us see that by doing our share and by using good judgment we could make happy and successful high school careers for ourselves. We know that the guidance and friendship of this man will constitute a great part of the melody of our days as P.H.S. To Edmund Lonsky we offer our deepest thanks. We will try to make the rest of our lives reflect the principles that he taught us. ON CALL-Mr. Lonsky calls home to inquire about an absentee.

PODESTA Assistant Superintendent Assistant Superintendent Commencement exercises will culminate our thirteen years in the Plainfield public schools. We have taken for granted the school system which has served and nurtured us so well. It is proper now that we pause to express our gratitude. Our city's concern for our welfare has been entrusted to the Board of Education. Their foresight, judgment, and unselhsh devotion are demonstrated by the educational opportunities we have had. Although we have had limited direct contact with Dr. Gill and his assistants, we are aware that their able administration makes possible the smooth functioning of the entire school system. Their planning and supervision have been behind our steady progress toward educational goals. We hope that we shall prove ourselves worthy of the efforts that have been expended in our behalf.

PASSARELLA Administrative Assistant Administrative Assistant JEAN FRANCIS Vice-Principal WARREN H. HELD Principal We did not regard our principal, Warren Held and his fellow adminis- trators merely as a team of remote powers working mysteriously behind the scenes, but rather as a dedicated group of people who worked continuously to keep Plainfield High operating at its highest standards. We remember Mr. Held for his never-ending endeavors to make P.H.S, the best school possible and for his friendly, personal interest in each of us. His warm personality and his devotion to our school have given Mr. Held a lasting place in our memories. In the one year that she has been with us as vicesprincipal, Doctor Francis has ingratiated herself with students and faculty alike. To our two assistant administrators, Mr. Banta and Mr. Passarella, we offer our thanks for the special efforts they have put forth in helping to make P.H.S. a smooth-running organization. PONDERING A DECISION-Daily administrative conferences are behind the smooth operations of P.H.S. which we take so for granted. , Y , 7,3 FINDING THE ANSWER-Carol Cun- ningham seeks the help of her counselor, Mrs. Nellie P. Hastings. GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT One of the busy spots in the school is the Guidance Office where the offices of the Eve counselors are located. Pupils come to their counselors to discuss the selection of their subjects, progress in their present courses, their future educational and vocational plans, their test results, and any problems which may be troubling them. Parents and college representatives are frequent visitors. Employers maintain continuous contact with the Placement Counselor. In these offices are kept many college catalogues, scholarship announcements, a file of vocational information, and many reference books. To help each pupil to discover and use his ability, to aid him in establishing his goals and reaching them, and to assist him in solving his problems-these are the objectives of the Guidance Department. of ie, . ..f 'fwL . if Left to rigbzz Eugene I-lubka, Eleanor C.

ENGLISH DEPARTMENT In our English classes we have been trained in the most effective use of language as the primary machinery of thought. The goal of the English department is to develop the student's thinking processes and his power to communicate with others. To achieve these objectives we were drilled in the mastery of specific skills, so that we might learn to use acceptable grammatical forms, spell accurately, write legibly, and read with increased comprehension. The experience provided in communication has helped us to organize our thinking, to interpret directions, to read current publications intelligently, to listen effectively, and to speak clearly. By the use of current materials, we have been led to improve our taste in radio, moving pictures, and television. Our introduction to some of the classics has aided us in choosing our reading matter with discrimination. Finally, we have been inspired to consider atti- tudes as well as ideas, to acquire a sense of values and proportion, and to perceive the greatness and worth of literature as an interpretation of life. These are the objectives the Language Arts program is attempting to realize in eighty-one classes in English, speech, and journalism. WORDS ARE THE TOOLS OF THOUGHT-Miss Achtenhagen's period one senior class listen appreciatively to Grace Moody's report. WHO ARE THESE INTRUDERS? - Miss Mixer's period six senior class get set for a composition critique. 9 GOOD NEWS?-Mrs. Westpfahl's P.A.D. class keep up-to-date in current events. SOCIAL STUDIES This year, besides the regular courses in all phases of history, World Geography, Social Studies, and Problems of American Democracy, the department is offering a basic course in economics and one on the fundamental principles of social psychology. To supplement classroom sessions there are film strips, moving pictures, and outside speakers. Also, as an added highlight, there is a yearly trip to the United Nations building. IN MY OPINION . . . -Mr. John McCurdy's U. S. History class hold a panel discussion on our satellite program.

DEPARTMENT Democracy, equality, liberty, and freedom are more an just words to students who have taken required and elective social studies courses, In all of the departmental offerings there is provision for a variety of experiences designed to give each pupil an understanding and appreciation of the principles of democracy so that he may be able to preserve, defend, and advance the democratic way of life.

MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT While some of us are frantically trying to asborb enough mathematics to make our future check books balance, others are exploring the fourth dimension. Every student is given the opportunity to study as much math as he desires and is capable of learning, We are offered courses ranging from general mathematics and elementary algebra to solid geometry and trigonometry, and we are placed in classes according to our proficiencies in these subjects. This year the college preparatory mathematics curriculum is being modified according to the recommendations of the College Entrance Examination Board. With the recent emphasis on science, mathematics is becoming an increasingly vital subject to our society. Plainfield High School students are fortunate to have such a complete range of course offerings which meet the needs of all and which challenge those individuals who are endowed with exceptional aptitude for the subject. 4-,- THE CENTER OF ATTENTION-Mr. Bubrick's algebra class demonstrates comprehension.

Lonsky, Milda Skucas, Robert Lear, and Robert Le Compte. THE SCIENCE DEPARTMENT In the near future, the lack of expert scientists may threaten the survival of our nation and our method of life. The lack of ability to understand and to interpret science is becoming more apparent every day. It is, therefore, the responsibility of the Science Department to teach each pupil to the limit of his capacity, the knowledge of science. Each student is taught to identify and dehne scientific problems, to suggest or eliminate hypotheses, to select procedures for testing hypotheses, to interpret WAITING FOR THE REACTION-Under Mr. Hiram Kistler's watchful eye, Robert Zemel prac- tice an experiment in the neutralization of acids. data and draw conclusions, and to evaluate critically statements made by others. Perhaps most important, science imparts to the student the ability to reason quantitively and symbolically. The P.H.S. Science Department offers general courses in the biological, physical, and earth sciences. These courses are also offered in the technical and college preparatory levels. This year the curriculum has offered more pupil participation and more labora- tory work by the individual pupil. Fin! row: Eric P. Nelson, Nan E. Brown, Hiram P. Kistler, department head, Helen G.

Sprerhen Sie Deutsch? Many P.H.S. students know at least one of these languages. Three year courses are offered in French, German, and Spanish, and four years in Latin. Conversational French is given to second and third year French students. The main objective of the modern language class is to train students in the speaking, understanding, reading, and writing of the languages. This year special emphasis has been placed on the speaking of the different languages. Latin students are taught to read Latin literature of various authors and to understand the derivation of English words from Latin. Varied activities spring up each year as the language clubs start in action. Roman togas are donned for the annual Latin banquet stponsored by the junior Classical League. There is a club or each of the four languages, and each is open to any student who wishes to supplement his class work. 13 COMPRENEZ-VOUS?-Miss Pratt and her French 3 class listen as Harriet Bel- lerjeau tests her fluency in the language. lNDUSTRIAL,HOME,AND FINE ARTS Tantalizing aromas from the cooking classes and the clanks of the workshops permeate the ground Hoot halls as many of our future technicians, mechanics, and homemakers learn the skills which will prepare them for their chosen vocations. The Industrial, Home and Fine Arts Department offers a large selection of courses to students interested in acquiring varied practical experiences. The students of art are taught the fundamentals of art as well as the principles and elements of design. The home arts course covers food preparation, buying, and planning meals. Selection of materials, clothing construction, grooming, social etiquette and interior decorating are studied. The Modern Living course helps students prepare for happy human relationships. The boys who elect industrial arts develop basic skills in auto, machine, mechanical drawing, metal, and woodwork shops. In these shops instruction is given in the handling of power machinery and various tools. This year the department offers two new courses, arts and crafts and interior decorating. By learning, observing, and doing, students gain a working knowledge of their prospective careers. With practice behind them, they can do a better job and look forward to a better future.

Is selling or merchandising your vocational choice? Does owning your own business sound attractive? Since many students answer Yes to these questions, the Commercial Department of P.H.S. is a vital part of our school's total educational program. To help pupils secure and hold their initial jobs in the business world, this department offers courses which prepare students for many different business fields. The future secretary takes courses in stenog- ,ETTER PERFECT l-Miss Marie Maurel's Steno lass practices transcription.

LIBRARY Books, books, and more books, ranging from encyclo- pedias to science hction, crowd the shelves of our school library. Run on the same principle as any other library, ours includes material on virtually every subject, with especially strong collections in those fields which parallel subjects taught at P,H.S. Also included are an excellent group of recreational reading books suited to the teen-age taste and a collection of films and records which are always available to teachers and occasionally to students. MUSIC DEPARTMENT Chantez rlmntez, everybody sing along. For P.H.S. claanleurr there are three main choral groups: Mixed Josephine E Miller. librariang Constance Smith, assistant librarian. CLOSE HARMONY-Mrs. Vera Monez's chorus class, period 8, train their voices. Chorus, Male Chorus, and Girls' Chorus. There are also a Boys' Ensemble and a Girls' Ensemble which permit small groups of students to exercise their vocal talents. On the instrumental side there are the band and the orchestra, which perform at concerts, school assemblies, and selected community aflfairs. For students seriously interested in formal music study the department offers the following: Fundamentals of Music, Harmony, History and Apprecia- tion of Music, and Voice Culture. Howard S. Savage, Clarence J. Andrews, Supervisor of Music, Vera Monez, and Dwight A. Brown. 4 an-' ,J 'LH' 17 Two Retiring Teachers End Long Service GERALDINE M. COOLEY As a teacher in the Social Studies Depart- ment since 1930, Miss Cooley kindled by means of her own enthusiasm and knowl- edge, the interest of literally thousands of students in the study of European and United States history. Her wide travel here and abroad enabled her to enrich her instruction and to share her personal observations with her pupils. She had the faculty of inspiring creative and original work from her students which ranged far beyond the limits of classroom text books. She took pride in her students' accomplishments and set high standards of scholarship for them. As the sponsor of the World Friendship Club, Miss Cooley demonstrated her con- cern for promoting international good will through mutual knowledge and understand- ing. Retirement gives her the opportunity to add to her first-hand knowledge of the world, she has embarked upon an extensive tour of Europe and the Near East. Although we shall probably forget many details of history that we studied under her tutelage, we shall remember Miss Cooley as a good -teacher and friend. HERBERT A. STINE In the thirty-eight years that Hub Stine has played a dominant role in Plainfield High as teacher, coach, supervisor, and Di- rector of Athletics, our physical education program and our athletic teams have won national recognition and praise. His boys have gone on to win fame not only in the sports world, but also as leaders in every field of endeavor. After five years of apprenticeship in West- field, Hub joined the Plainfield High faculty in 1921. He was head football, base- bal, and ice hockey coach until 1936, and a glance at the record will show that he was one of the best. Although he eventually gave up these duties, he never lost an opportunity to root for Cardinal teams and to impart some of his own enthusiasm and fighting spirit to the players. Plainfield High School Field, the envy of most schools and colleges in the state, was planned, developed, and nurtured by Mr. Stine. These fine facilities and splendid play- ing fields are a testimony to his expert and constant supervision. Appointed Supervisor of Physical Educa- tion in 1936 and then Director in 1953, Mr. Stine has led his department in its growth from two teachers in Girls' Phys. Ed. and two in Boys' Phys. Ed. to its present staff of ten gym teachers and two Driver Training instructors. The years have lain so lightly on his burly shoulders that it is difficult to think of Hub as ready to retire. We are glad that he waited to graduate with the class of '58. We look forward to seeing him pacing the sidelines at PHS games for many years to come. N, 7 g ff' Q ,LQ11-.

Maier Achievements Mark As We don our caps and gowns in preparation for The Loveliest Night of the Year, we pause in recalling memories of the many events which studded our four years at PHS. As freshmen, 'way back in September of '54, we wondered if we lost chords would ever be a part of the rhythmic pattern of Plainfield High. We struck the first notes by electing Peter Saidel as president and the tuneful ensemble of Ira Bloom, Susan Fickett, and Robert Levine to help him. Our Hrst social event, the Freshman Party, was a wonderful success, and that same year we instituted a scholarship fund to be given to a member of our class at graduation. We returned to PHS as sophomores, eager to embark on a new year which seemed Hlled with added respon- sibilities and new experiences. A new quartet, consisting of Peter Saidel, Virginia Barlow, joan Desvernine, and Robert Levine, was formed, and once again we became busy with class activities. PHS sweethearts were sold to aid our scholarship fund, and our Sophomore Dance, the Leprachun Leap, was An Affair to Remember. Our second year ended on a high note, and we awaited our return to PHS as upperclassmen. With our brand new class rings gleaming on our fingers, we began our junior year with enthusiasm. We elected Peter Saidel president, with Arthur Edwards, Dorothy Voogd, and Robert Levine working harmoni- ously to make this year even better than the two previous ones. An Evening in Paris was enjoyed at our junior- Senior Dance, and the Prom, Shang-ri-la, was a social event about which many of us are still singing. On a Hnancial level, a tidy sum was added once again to our scholarship fund, thanks to sales from sweatshirts. With three wonderful years behind us, and the mos-t impor- tant one coming up in the fall, we were Sitting on Top of the World. LOADED WITH LEARNING-Fred Podinker and john Nagengast look happy returning their class's books to English book room. Class of '58's Record Finally the all-important senior year was upon us, and we enjoyed the distinction of being the graduating class of Plainfield High. With Peter Saidel serving once again as president, and Arthur Edwards, Dorothy Voogd, and Robert Levine as the other ofiicers, the class worked as a unit to make the last year a memorable one. Our Senior Play, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay, starred Bonnie Lee Friday and Margie Gonzalez. Student Coun- cil functioned more efficiently than ever with joseph Hines, Tim Hall, joan Rapps, and James Shrager as ofiicers. The Entree went to press with Connie Genard as Editor-in-Chief, and Maxine Tepper edited the Mile- rtone. We all went Around the World in Eighty Days at the junior-Senior Dance, and once again, the Prom was one of the most important Social highlights of the year. Along with the excitement of approaching gradu- ation, we felt sad at the thought of leaving PHS and our many friends, to go our separate ways. We, the class of 1958, have had an eventful four year at Plainfield High, owing much of our success to our adviser, Mr. Lonsky, and the other members of the staff. From those lost chords we have built a strong memorable melody to linger on in the years to come. SENIOR CLASS COUNCIL-E. Lon- sky, P. Saidel, B. Edwards, D. Voogd, R. Levine. Second row: E.

N ll Our Hearts Were Young and Gay We're adrift! Alone on the wide, wide sea! said the cast of the senior play on November 14 as they went aboard the PHS stage to make the memory of Our Hearts Were Young and Gay ever mindful in the hearts of those who saw the play. The ludricrous adventures of the Europe-bound Cornelia Otis Skinner and Emily Kimbrough were no more exciting than the anxious search for costumes of the twenties for 'this production. The silent backstage dance lessons of the stroll, the frantic rush to the cafe- teria for ice cream before 3:10 p.m. rehearsals, and the diligent efforts of Emily and the boys to conceal Cornelia's measles were no more exciting than the never-ending efforts of the cast and Miss Mixer to produce an excellent show. Finally, on November 16, when the curtain closed, a cry went up backstage, They applauded! The product of weeks of hustling and bustling was at last pre- sented to the public. It shall always remain in our memories as a tremendous success. NOW SAY AH-H-H - Dave Mallory discovers that Cornelia has the measles.

Pete Saidel, joan Rapps Sims and Hines Win Class Scholarships Combining their efforts during their four years at PHS, the class of 1958 has made possible the establishment of a scholarship fund of between 900 and 1,000 dollars. The scholarship is available to any senior preparing for college, secretarial school, nursing school, or any other ty e of higher educational institution, as the type of ,extended education is not specifiecli In their sophomore year a committee of volunteer members was organized to determine the necessary qualifications and the method of selection. It was decided that the candidates for the scholarship must have a definite financial need and a satisfactory record of conduct. He must participate in extrafcurricular activities and must have a satisfactory academic record. This year, committees of students from the senior class were responsible for organizing the scholarship. More than six committees consisting of various students of the class worked for the cause. A faculty board consisting of Dr. Francis, Mr. Lonsky, and the four counselors met to make the final choice of the best qualified individual. lf, however, there are two candidates of equal qualifications, the award will be divided into two parts. JOSEPH HINES Joe's lanky frame helps him tower over his fellow students, but his character, personality, and abilities won him a position of leadership in our school. As president of Student Council he worked earnestly to oster good school spirit and student-faculty cooper- ation. His four year record attests to Joe's eagerness to participate in and contribute to every phase of high school life. He plugged away to win his varsity sweater and to earn a place on the cross-country, basketball, and baseball teams. For three years his homeroom honored him by choosing him as presi- dent. His intellectual interests were furthered by membership in the Astronomy Club and the Spanish Club. He was a leader, also, among the youth of the community. His good citizenship was on display as a junior trustee of the Bethel Presbyterian Church and as a representative on the N.A.A.C.P. Youth Council. Last summer he was one of the local delegates to Shawnee Leadership Institute. Joe applied himself no less energetically to his studies. He ranked as an honor student. The scholar- ship he has been awarded will assist him in his plans for college and a career in applied mathematics in industrial research. BARBARA SIMS Blessed with energy, ability, and a friendly dis- position, Bobbi undertook to make the most of her four years in Plainfield High. Her prominence in school activities and her position in the upper fourth of her class scholastically demonstrate how well she succeeded. This year she served her second consecutive term as a Student Council representative. She acted as chairman of the Social Committee and as a mem- ber of the Executive Council. In addition, she was a member of Girls' Chorus. She found time, too, to serve as a member of the Ushers' Squad. During the past four years her versatility was evi- denced by participation in tennis, archery, Mixed Chorus, and the Milertone editorial staff. Leisure hours were occupied in the Jewish Com- munity Center Youth Council and in part-time jobs. Bobbi has been employed as a sales girl and as a file clerk and receptionist in a lawyer's ofiice. A career of public service appeals to Bobbi. She plans to attend college to prepare for either teaching or social service work. Remember Those Carefree Moments? DUH!

Our special pride lies, of course, in our wise and understanding class adviser, Mr. A. Hamilton Otto. We chose Robert Zagoria to put us on key as freshmen, followed by jon Schreyack, Ellen Romer, and Katie Crowe. The high note of our freshman year was our Freshman Party. The melody grew stronger during our sophomore year under the -batons of Dave Tebbs, Herb Smith, jo Ann Cowling, and Cynthia Barlow. We raised our voices high in favor of our Sophomore Dance and to the realization that at this year's conclusion we would be half-way through our number. This, our junior year, proved to be an even higher pitched one. Attilio Chiappa, Julius Chiappa, Felicia Pfister, and Nancy Myzie conducted us through the third part of our tune. Our sale of pennants, the junior-Senior Dance, and the junior'Senior Prom brought us to a climax. As we replay the tune in our minds, we realize that many changes have taken place from the time we began until the present, but we End that the general melody of our days in PHS lingers on and will continue to do so even after our grand Enale- our senior year.

Class of '60 Swings at Sophomore Dance Sophomore Class History As we progress from the ranks of under- classmen, we now turn our melody to that of upperclassmen. Starting on a note of high anticipation, we gingerly tripped the keys as freshmen. Our offbeat notes and feats were cleared-up by our skilled adviser, Mr. Paul B. Chambers. We soon elected a harmonious quartet consisting of Ken Smith, Howard Feldman, Nancy Sargent, and Judy Larew to handle our business and plans. The outstanding event of the year was the Freshman Party. Our melody on the up- surge, we happily ended the first year. Having more practice now, we put more rhythm into our sophomore year. To add a beat to our tune, we elected john Coyle, Ronnie Uslan, Nancy Sargent, and Carole Putsche. Less flaws could be noted now and we came into full swing at our Sophomore Dance. As these two years come to a finale, we look back at our many memories and reminisce. We have had our good notes and bad notes, yet always the melody lingers on. ai, SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS-John Coyle, president Ronny Uslan, vice-presidentg Nancy Sargent, secretary Carol Putsche, treasurerl Fin! raw: N.

We soon learned to ignore the teasing from those smug upperclassmen, and in a short while we became adjusted to the routine. As class elections came up, we began considering candidates to the tune of, There'll be Some Changes Made. janet Cass was elected president, and Peter Mann, Susan Campbell and Tom Disbrow served as vice president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. We began to feel a close unity as a class, and our hard efforts in producing together our first social event were rewarded, Our Freshman Party was truly Some Enchanted Evening, and we had a wonder- ful time getting better acquainted with our class- mates. With our great friend and class adviser, Miss Marion Newsom, as that special Someone to Watch Over Us, our busy year was filled with memories. Now that it is drawing to an end, we realize that we have secured a good footing on that Long, Long Trail, and we will climb steadily until we reach the summit, graduation. ,tilt I rs , , i 3 .1 X l U ,tw at .

This organization represents the student body of PHS and is composed of representatives elected in the fall from every homeroom. The officers of Student Council, joe Hines, Tim Hall, Joan Rapps, and jim Shrager, who were elected by the student body during the spring of '57, conduct the Council meeting, which is held in the library during Friday activity period. To carry out Council activities and investigate any problems, various committees were formed. The Cardinal Dance, a stamp collection, a suggestion box, and the pep rallies were only a few of this year's Student Council activities. Advising our Council this year were Miss Marion Newson, Dr. jean Francis, and Mr. George Reck.

These young lovelies add glamour and gaiety to staid concerts and lend color to the black and white of a male chorus. They also function at all school affairs with their male counterparts. Without them there would be confusion, even riot. Through their efforts, there is order and dignity. The guiding hand of this honor so- ciety is that of Mr. Banta. D. Hard. TI-IE ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE Places everyone. Curtain going up! Mem- bers of the Assembly Committee can sit back and relax.

ENTREE Into each issue of the Enlree go hours of note-taking, writing, typing, copyreading, re-typing, headline writing, proofreading, and worrying that despite all the work done, the issue will still never meet the printer's deadline. As any Efztree reporter or editor will readily admit, however-it's worth it. For seeing in print the very words that you have written is reward enough for any young journalist. Under the advisership of Spencer Steen- rod, the paper published twelve issues this year. 100 ENTREE EDITORS: Lef! to riglnt-Indy Rerfilrla, fenlure edifoff David Mallery, sports editor, Ruth Lurie, news editor, Karen Bjorkman, managing editor.

Although frequently overwhelmed by mountains of used flash-bulbs, stacks of copy paper, and files full of photographs. the editorial staff never wavered in its effort to capture in words and pictures the spirit, the events, and the personalities which comprised the school year 1957-58 in PHS. The herculean efforts of the many talented and willing staff members were coordinated by james Berman as adviser and Maxine Tepper as editor-in-chief. With sighs of relief we made our deadline, and now with smiles of satis- faction we behold our assembled product. We hope it will serve to preserve your fond recollections of this school year.

Coach Smith's boys swept through the opposition to post six wins against strong competitors. A loss to Union and a tie with Thomas jefferson did not keep us from capturing the Central jersey Group IV Championship. Dave Burrison was honored by being named all-state tackle. Barringer Crushed Striking on the ground and in the air, the Cardinals defeated Barringer 39-19. The superior performances of john Coyle and joe Turi in the T formation, plus the power of Buster Edwards, doubling as half-back and quarter-back, turned the team into an undefeatable TD machine.

A TD by McCarthy of jefferson tied the game in the second half. In the fourth quarter the Cards fumbled with four yards to go in the fourth down. Our rooters felt that we had dominated the game, but the scoreboard did not show it.

Cross Country Team Crowned State Champs There's a long, long trail awinding to the land of our dreams -but our cross country team achieved the goal, an undefeated season. Plainheld High School harriers showed their heels to Cranford, New Bruns- wick, Rahway, Metuchen, Thomas Jefferson, Hillside, and Mountain Lakes on the route to the Union County Championship, Central Jersey Championship, and State Championship. The powerhouse combina- tion included Mike Sabino, Ken Davis, George Bow- ers, Ned Herrold, Cecil Jones, Ralph Harper, ,and Joel Nadler. The harriers, along with the three championships, enjoyed two shutouts, rare in cross-country. Both Rahway and Metuchen fell the same week, and in the latter meet, Coach Brown's men took the first eight places. In the Central Jersey meet, Plainfield scored only 28 points for a new meet record, and in the state meet Mike Sabino placed sixth to give PHS its first championship. Prospects for the 1958 season are excellent, with only two seniors graduating-Mike Sabino and Ned Herrold. Other boys returning for next year's team are Pete Hierl, Barry Fitzgerald, Dick Grote, Dave Folk, Lynn Grey, and George Van Sise.

GIRLS' TENNIS On many an autumn afternoon the PHS tennis Courts are thronged with gay Dianas in Bermuda shorts who are swinging their raquets vig- orously and occasionally hitting an elusive ball over the net. The fall tennis program attracts sixty girls who are trying to improve their skill in a popular sport. As the sea- son wanes, the girls compete in an individual elimination contest. The winner of this tournament becomes girls' tennis champ of the SCHSOYI- Thanks to the good weather, the competent guidance of Miss New- son, and the spirit of cooperation of all participants, a highly success- ful season was completed.

Two meetings a year are held, one in the fall and one in the spring. During the spring meet, the girls have the op- portunity of electing oflicers. The oflicers meet during the year with the sponsor, Miss Audrey Joyce, and set up policies, arrange the budget, and help make up the Slate for the following election. They also aid in carrying out the point system, by which a member of the G.A.A., through participation in sports, can earn enough points to win an award. GIRLS' BASKETBALL An enthusiastic and energetic group of girls meets every Monday and Thursday in the girls' large gym during the winter season. These girls are all interested in basketball and are striving to de- velop their skill in playing and officiating the game under the super- vision of Mrs. Hogan. Towards the end of the season, an interclass tournament is held in which one class team emerges as victor. Credits toward G.A.A. awards are gained through participation in basketball, as in all other girls' sports. . G.A.A. OFFICERS Top row: Connie Clark, president, Nancy Oakes, treasurer.

Medley of Memories 1957-58 This eventful year will go down in the annals of history as the year in which a satellite was successfully launched and the class of 58 was graduated from PHS. Sputniks, mutniks, grinches and hot dogs on Wednesday helped to make the long stretch from September to June even more memorable than any in the past.

Seniors experienced unforgettable yet indescribable feelings as they walked out of the past and into the future. As we pause to reflect upon these past exciting months, the melodies which linger on are not some transitory hit tunes, but rather those shining hours when all was harmony, when we were in the groove, when PHS was really jumping with exciting events. So many things have happened which will forever be imprinted in our minds. Those days, for instance, when flushed and excited we came home to find long awaited letters of acceptance, the trying days during which we were undecided about the future, and those moments in which we decided upon the path we were to follow. As we end our chronicle of 1957-1958, we hope that we have succeeded in record- ing something of the events, the personali- ties, and the atmosphere of the exciting year we experienced together. It has been our aim to make this Milertone an accurate re- flection of ourselves and our school, and also a means of preserving this chapter in our lives so that we can truly say, The song is ended, but the melody lingers on.
