if , f A, . - - MR. PRATT This year has seen the successful completion of the first full school term under the able administra- tion of our principal, Mr. Pratt. Since his arrival during the last half of the previous year, Mr. Pratt has become genuinely well liked by both students :md faculty through the medium of maintaining a sincere interest in his work and in the people with whom he comes in contact. Those of us who have accepted his offers of advice and guidance have found the door of his office always open and a portion of his time always available. Having had so helpful and understanding a principal, we, the class of nineteen forty-four, feel fortunate indeed to have completed our final year at Pompton Lakes High School under the direction and supervision of Mr. Pratt. RUM WHUM MISS REIMAN N Up to her ears in excuses, but still smiling! That describes Miss Reimann the way many of us see her. As Dean of Girls she has to lend an ear to our many and varied pleas, excuses, and tales of woe. Her sunny disposition and pleasing manner certainly make it easy to accept any decision she makes. MR. HOFFMAN President and only member of the somewhat ele- vatedl' Inner Sanctum! That's Mr. Hoffman, our Dean of Boys. Many of us have made the long climb to his office on the second floor and stood in line waiting to be sentenced. In spite- of this, we still hold him in high esteem and are proud when we are able to have him as one of our friends. Page 2 MISS REIMANN, MR. HOFFMAN Dean of Girls, Dean of Boys

These were the years We grew up in-the years that We first felt the sting of cupid's arrow-the years We learned about life and national spirit-and most of all, the years that we passed from youth to adults and started planning our future. So that you can reminisce over your brief stay here now and the long years to come, we are pre- senting to you, the students of Pompton Lakes High School, a pictorial review of your life here. When the World is free again of strife and tur- moil, We, the senior class of '44, can recall the days in Pompton Lakes when we were preparing to meet the unknowns of today's strange world.
