Red Bank High School - Log Yearbook (Red Bank, NJ)

Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1942 volume:

THE LOG ys FOREWORD In the years to come, when our recollection of high school days has been dimmed, we shall look back on those pages to remember that graduation sent us out into a world torn by hate and lust for power. The times that follow will never contain the carefree joys of these high school days. This book, the Log, has been compiled so that these pleasant memories shall never be forgotten. 4 • Activities • 39 Mr. Ernfst L. Gilliland DEDICATION To Mr. Ernest L. Gilliland, whose untiring efforts and good cheer have kept us going, over all the rough spots in this early part of our life; and without whose assistance this volume would never have been completed, this book is respectfully dedicated. • 5 Left tu right: William Wcliner, Jackson Murphy, Leo McKee (Vice-President). Harry lleavilaml (President), Japhia Clayton (District Clerk), B. Allan Parker. Dr. Allan Randall, Edmund Can zona, Charles Irwin. Edwin C. Gil land (Supervising Principal). 6 • BOARD OF EDUCATION Our Board of Education is composed of nine elected members, to serve periods of three years each, a district clerk, and a supervising principal. In the hands of this group, school legislation and pro- grams of instruction are adopted. It then falls into the hands of our super- vising principal and principals of our schools to see that the programs are carried out. In the past, close harmony has existed throughout the school and we hope the same may continue to foster the growth of our American youth. • 7 EDWIN C GILLAND Supervising Principal. Interwoven into the activities of every senior is the sincere hope and guidance of our Supervising Prin- cipal. It is the spirit of service which characterizes his aim in school. Distinguished service to the welfare of our school and country is his motto. This, Mr. Gilland en- deavors to accomplish through a close harmony among Board of Ed- ucation, townspeople, pupils and teachers. 8 • MISS KATHERINE SICKLES Secretary to Mr. Gilland HARRY C. SIEBER Principal MRS. MILDRED RICHTER Secretary to Mr. Sieber Through thought and guidance of every student’s individual prob- lems, Mr. Sieber lends a helpful, guiding hand. With careful plan- ning he arranges our programs to meet individual wishes. Due to his guidance, a new course has been added in airplane engineering and technique, which has proved very attractive and of material aid to many of our students. • 9 Edna M. Hallock Art, Crafts.

The student governing body did its part to help the national crisis by working to promote better citizen- ship in the school and community. It has, also, been the sponsor of several social activities. Outstanding among these activities, were the trips to county meetings and the state convention which was held at Princeton University. At these conferences the members discussed problems concern- ing student government and leadership. At the end of the first term the Council suffered a loss when Mr. Wells, the Council adviser for the past three years, enlisted in the country’s armed forces.

Instead of just five majorettes and a drum major, there is now a super-colossal twirling corps con- sisting of eight stepping twirlers. Mr. Donald Klopp took over the band in 1937 and has given Red Bank one of the finest organizations in the state. William Conover served as head drum major from 38 to ’40. In ’41 Chester Trubin, an ambitious sophomore, took the position, and has become quite a twirler. He has perfected the high toss which he illustrated during many of the band’s engagements. This year, as in former years, the .band attended every football game. During the half they stepped off some unique forma- tions never before attempted on our field. Director Klopp and the band’s student leader, Edmund Crelin, instructed the members in the execution of these maneuvers.

The musical organization began by playing for the Masquers’ three one-act plays. In the early part of December they accepted an invitation to play for the Hi-Y’s yearly induction ceremony, still later they con- tributed interludes of music to both the February and the June Commencements. Those soft strains of music coming across the campus are not the product of a portable radio. No, they are merely the mixed voices of ninth grade and senior high girls who make up the Girls’ Glee club. This organiza- tion has completed another successful season under the supervision of Mr. A. Leroy Baker. During the year, they have given two assembly programs and one spring concert, to which they charged admission.

The officers of the Knitting Club are: president, Marion Backe; vice-president, Emma Russo. A new Motto which is being adopted is Remember Purl Harder! BRIDGE CLUB The Bridge Club is composed of about twelve ambi- tious students who wish to master the art of playing bridge. The club was organized during the fall term of 1941 under the supervision of Miss Margaret Thompson. The students have been taught a few of the simpler rules of contract and are looking forward to becoming more exact players later on. 44 • COMMERCIAL CLUB The Commercial Club, under the guidance of Miss Leola Robinson, is composed of members of the Senior Class in Stenography and Office Practice.

Well, on the stage in one of the Masquers three one-act plays is one of the best places to start the long theatrical climb. The Masquers directed by Mrs. Barbara D. Kane, is one of the oldest and most popular clubs in the school. This past year they made more money than ever before in the history of the society. Members still recall with laughter the trip to New York to see Arsenic and Old Lace.” Go to it Masquers, we’ll see you on the silver screen, Hedy and Clark notwithstanding! _ 46 • President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Adviser Edmund -Crelin Fay Coreale Jeanne Van Dorn Victoria De Voe Mrs. Kane Uv Visitors l ( r ty , ‘r yat.; ions listen ' • WT £ -. ere 4 • ; r-v; (r, «JS 1 r 2L, JSi n .. rt,r,:'r '--' £ 2a3X ,i vr- ' w One-M V8 ’ oi ems T ) Gnen V. ul .. i ii- I’vU ' ' ' ' I , X View Own lu� K ,U ', „.r I -IB ■•� � '• «n� � l C£ rn ■ I 'Given Before , v t(tp '■•■i.uW',e,_f“vi s„,„. l lrfJrS5 c 5,M Kate 4� °°’ .m ‘ “� .� .« r 77,- ,. e i ,, S I ..,. v.r. v,fo '� «( fi “ Z .� • ««“ •'’«.IV '«nil In £5?

Who works diligently to cover all the news in and around the high school? Who takes sheafs of typewritten papers around to four different newspaper offices weekly? The members of the Journalism Club! In spite of the fact that the school has discontinued a school paper, the Journalism Club has succeeded in getting high school news into the town paper so that every student and parent may know what is going on in the school. Under the guidance of Mr. Donald S. Klopp the high school students have now become cub reporters. In addition to this reg- ular instruction, students of journal- ism often hear lectures from various newspaper men and women. „ ,c Q. ’ «...I J,7 to� ' 'tfj+ j _ ' Ur' u� J, Ann M ™a ,, ' 4 y O vj, � 5S£?==i JSumWl , f0S L fbul V.

At the regular meeting each week, one of the members is called on to give a brief talk of one of the South American countries. An interchange of letters with the young people of these countries is planned. They hope this correspondence will help our good-neighbor policy. The main purpose of Le Cerclc Francais is to create a greater appreciation of the French language and provide an opportunity to converse in French. Membership in the club, which meets twice a month, is limited to French students. Under the supervision of Miss Leonora Hodgdon, the club has had many interesting programs. Plays, games, songs, and a special Christmas program have made this year pleasant for the members of the club. One of the projects of the club, in which classes participated, also, was the collection of money to aid French prisoners in concentration camps. 48 • BOYS’ HI-Y The Boys’ Hi-Y have completed an- other successful year under the guidance of Mr. Ben Parker, adviser; Robert Borrowes, president; Raymond Sergeant, vice-presi- dent; Edmund Sickles, secretary; and Robert Truex, treasurer. The club has sponsored many activities. The members attended the natatorium for swimming parties and were represented by a basketball team led by Robert Howard, captain. The annual Hi-Y dance which was given at Christmas time, proved very successful. At the weekly meetings, many guests spoke to the club on such topics as National Defense, local gov- ernment, and local business affairs. At the beginning of the national emerg- ency, the club as a whole offered their serv- ices to the local defense council. The club was, also, represented at the National Youth Congress at Trenton on Bill of Rights Day. GIRLS’ HI-Y What is the Girls’ Senior Hi-Y? Just follow the sounds of the ping-pong ball, and you’ll be sure to find the answer. There are about twenty-five Hi-Ycrs whose main purpose is to do a little some good and have a lot of fun on the side. Strange to say, they seem to accomplish both these objectives though the chattering and gig- gling never ceases. The Thanksgiving bas- kets, Christmas bundles, scrapbooks for the sick, cake sales, and a tea for the Hi-Y alumnae and teachers all helped to ease twenty-five separate consciences. As for hav- ing fun — entertaining speakers plus snacks at meetings helped make life more enjoy- able. The Boys’ and Girls’ Hi-Y Dance, and Mother-Daughter Banquet, the picnics and swimming parties, the weekend camping trip, and the final banquet were additional attractions.

Russell, completed another year of activities. Some of the things which were accomplished were the enlarging of the darkroom and the making of a bulletin board in which pictures taken by one of the members could be posted. The members have taken pictures of the different sports in the school. They have visited the Fort Monmouth Photographical Laboratory, where they heard lectures on photography. They also had a speaker come to school to talk on engraving. William Hymer and Ronald Jacobs have taken pictures for the yearbook. Other members worked with the Journalism Club in submitting one snapshot a week for publication. In the club meetings, students were taught how to take pictures, to develop them, and to print them. President William Hymer Treasurer Wallace Becker Adviser Mr. G. B. Russell ROD AND GUN CLUB President William Holst Secretary Treasurer Harvey Robinson The Rod and Gun Club, under the supervision of Mr. Stephen O. Skakandy, has just completed one of the most active seasons it has ever enjoyed. The main purpose of this club is to instill in every member the love of the outdoors, and, above all, an appre- ciation of good clean sportsmanship. During the past year the club has been privileged to hear many noted authorities on wild game and fish life. Besides this, members were entertained by movies dealing with trout fishing in various parts of the world. The club has not confined its energy to enjoying the labors of others, however, many members have helped the State Fish and Game Commission to stock the county’s streams, build animal shelters, and distribute food to game during the winter. Three important events on the club’s calendar were the opening days of the fishing and hunting seasons, respectively, and the day of the annual deep sea fishing trip. On these days club members were excused from school so that they could get practical experience in the field. • 51 Left to right: Rose Rcci- nelli, Jean Schmidt, Lil- lian Baden, Fay Corealc, Marion Backe, Josephine Caprioni, Betsy Ross (suppor’ting ), Marie Mot- ley.

Tumbling is a sport open to all girls who are acrobatic- minded. About thirty of our Red Bank High School girls meet every Thursday in the gym to perfect this art. The girls are taught to do such stunts as forward and backward rolls, head-stands, cartwheels, and other kinds of acrobatic stunts. Backaches and headaches are natural consequences. The club has no officers except Mrs. H. Lechner, who supervises the sport. The Bowling Club of Red Bank High School meets every Wednesday at the Red Bank Recreation Center. Both boys and girls are members of this club, even though it is sponsored by the Girls Recreation Club. Of course, the boys are much better bowlers than the girls, but the girls offer good competition, at times. Play days are held with Asbury Park, Long Branch, and Rumson. In playing with the different schools, the girls compete with the girls and the boys with the boys, after which the scores are matched to determine which school has won. X. Girls’ Recreation Club Membership in the G. R. C., under the direction of Mrs. H. Lcchner, is open to any girl who wishes to participate in any sport during the year. This organization enables every girl, who is interested in sports, to meet girls of different high schools and compete with them in various activities. This year the club elected Rose Recin- elli. President; Betty Berry, Vice-presi- dent; Terry Woodward, Secretary; and Jeanne Schmidt, Recorder. Every girls’ sport comes under the guidance of this club. A special program of activities is arranged for those who come on buses so that they, too, may have an equal chance to make their G. R. C. points. Participation is measured by a point system with suitable awards for varying accomplishments. Each year as a new member enters the G. R. C., cards are placed on file for her. Every sport that she enters is recorded on these cards. At the end of the year the points are added up, and each girl receives an award equal to the number of her points. She receives points for such sports as basketball, soc- cer, hockey, swimming, tumbling, bowl- ing, roller skating, ice skating, horseback riding, tennis, and officiating. If a girl receives a total of over 1500 points, she receives a gold R. Approximately six girls receive these gold pins each year. Sfandin. SOCCER Bruised knees and banged-up shins means only one thing — soccer, the opening activity of the girls' athletic season. About one hundred girls from the entire school come out for this sport. This year no play-days were held, but, instead, inter-class soccer teams played against one another. Kneeling: Margaret Rcuther, Josephine Caprioni, Betsy Hall, Helen Jarvis, Emma Russo.

SENIOR ART GUILD The Senior Art Guild is an organization for pupils who wish to acquire an appre- ciation of art in its various forms. It is composed of those students in the drawing classes who show unusual talent in some sort of art work. Some of the highlights of the club activities this year were the assembly of a Christmas dinner for a needy family, a bus trip to New York City to see the art centers and the zoo, and the annual spaghetti dinner. Other activities of the club include such social events as roller skating, ice skating, and bowling. Officers of the Art Guild are as follows: Miss Hallock George Schmidt Betsy Hall Betty VanSant Jack Allen Fay Coreale Adviser President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Corresponding Secretary Other members are Bill Price, George Curtis, Frank Lovekin, Arthur VanNote, Mary Ruddy, Kay Doremus, Priscilla Taylor, Maralyn Hadaway, Betty MacCloud, Ray Cottrell, Ethel Anderson, Jeanne VanDorn, and Bunny Dillon. 54 • • 55 Left to right: Lillian Baden, Janet Smith.

Under the direction of Mrs. Hermia Leckner, the cheerleaders of Red Bank High School have chanted all year for the enjoyment for the spectators and the encour- agement for the players. The cheering squad composed of Rose Recinelli—captain, Lillian Baden—second cap- tain, Helen Jarvis, Betty Doremus, Janet Smith and Josephine Caprioni have contributed many new and peppy cheers. With the help of th Student Council. they have conducted many pep rallies in the gym” to arouse esprit de corps among the students and players. This year the cheerleaders have acquired new uniforms, these consist of heavy, white sweaters, white skirts, and saddle shoes with white and maroon socks, and ribbons. The cheering squad will suffer a loss of five of its members by graduation. FOOTBALL In 1941, Red Bank High School’s foot- ball team suffered a continuation of 1940’s '’hard luck” squad. All season the boys played their hearts out, but they were severely handicapped by lack of size and experience. Red Bank was unfortunate in losing its first game to an impressive Leonardo eleven, one of its traditional rivals. After this, followed a series of three defeats at the hands of bigger and more experienced Linden, Morristown, and the great As- bury Park steamroller.” The following week Princeton scored an unexpected and partially unearned victory over a weak Maroon eleven to the tunc of 27-0. Then the team took on new life and defeated Neptune by staging a come-back in the closing minutes to erase a first half lead of 7-0 to win to the tune of 13-7. Fol- lowing the Neptune victory. Red Bank seemed to sit back and wait for South River to defeat itself, and the result was a sound 34-2 beating at the hands of the Bricktowners.” The final defeat at the hands of our greatest rival. Long Branch, was a very distasteful way to close the season but it could not be helped. Red Bank fought hard, and at the end of the half the score was 0-0; but in the second half, Long Branch came back with new life and scored twice to garner a 13-0 win. Mr. Guest, his assistants, Messrs. Smith, Wilhelm, and Gilliland did a very good job of coaching, considering the circum- stances under which they were compelled to work. The squad was, for the most part, small, young, and inexperienced, but as stated by the coaches had potential power and intestinal fortitude.” Mr. Gilliland, removed from the coaching staff by an accident in the early part of the season, was sorely missed by the boys and his fellow coaches. We hope and trust that the Red Bank High School football team will attain a greater degree of success in the 1942 season. There seems to be no reason why it shouldn’t with a large group of ex- perienced sophomores and juniors in the varsity squad. We’ll be rootin’ for ya!! IvtRoy (tt'ssg-.es lc .

The year of ’38 Jane McHugh held the position. The next year they decided to expand and Ann Reuther, Helen Powers, Audrey Outwater, and Lois Dilks became majorettes. What a hit they made! Then, thrilled over the success of ’39 another majorette was added. They contributed greatly to the attractiveness of the band by learning the art of twirling. This year, Mr. Klopp completed his plan of a twirling corps by organ- izing a group of eight twirlcrs besides the five regular white satin-clad majorettes. The twirlcrs, dressed in military style maroon jackets with short full skirts and white boots, strutted gayly behind the regulars. Mr. William James, twirling instructor from the city of Long Branch taught both twirlcrs and majorettes unique twirling routines. Red Rank High School’s quest for glory in the realm of scholastic basketball began on October 28, 1941, when Coach Carl Smith issued the first call for practice. This strenuous pace under the watch- ful eyes of Coaches Smith and Gilliland showed re- sults as the Maroon cagers won their opening game and fared very well in the annual Round Robin games at Asbury Park. After the vacation, the Smithmen” got off on the right foot in the Central Jersey Group III Con- ference by defeating South River. At this point things began to happen: Coach Smith in a brief meeting told the squad that he was going to join the United States Navy as a chief petty officer. Following this was a heartbreaking defeat at the hands of Car- teret by a score of 29-25 in a very close game. Re- signed to do their best in their last showing under Coach Smith, the team suffered another four-point loss, after playing a brilliant game against Plainfield. Coach Ernest Gilliland was then promoted to head coach and proceeded to live up to the high standards which had been set by Smith. Led by Coach Gilli- land, the Maroon” continued to click,” defeating Hamilton and Atlantic Highlands. The latter part of the schedule, completed with fair success, included a victory over Rumson in an extremely interesting game. The undaunted Ma- roon” entered the State Tournament with their tra- ditional rivals. Long Branch, as opponents. In a bitterly fought contest. Long Branch emerged vic- torious, 33-30. ; BOYS’ BASKETBALL GIRLS’ BASKETBALL 162 Girls played basketball on home- room teams this year. There were two teams from each room, making 18 in all. These teams were divided into a Number One League, a Number Two League, and a round robin tournament played in each league. The League One champion was the Room C team captained by Nancy Byrd and League Two champion was won by Room C. At the close of the season, homeroom captains selected class teams for the school champion class tournament. The Sopho- mores won by defeating the Freshmen and th$ Seniors. The games were conducted by rated officials: Lillian Baden, Rose Recinelli, Betty Berry, Mary Ruddy, and Jean Schmidt. mr TENNIS With the call of Tennis, Coach Harold Potter met his three holdovers of the 1941 squad, Edward Kislin, Harry Mat- thews, Guy Van Ness, and a host of other players. Mastering the game of tennis is just as hard for boys to acquire as playing a good game of football, basketball, or baseball. The future of a good tennis team rests with the boy alone. His ability to accomplish the harder tasks of the back- stroke, the slice, or the follow-through rests on his willingness to practice hard and long. The 1942 season had many bright spots and we are hoping that our spirit of this year will carry with it many more honors to our long list of tennis accom- plishments.

GIRLS’ BASEBALL These past few weeks have been strenuous, marvelous, and hectic. Baseball fever is in the air, and baseball fiends are abroad. Under the supervision of Mrs. Hermia Lechner, the girls have had a week of tryouts to make the big team. We have, also, arranged class teams which oppose each other. Practice is held everyday to acquire skill in pitching, throw- ing, hitting, catching and running. The players love it so much that there have been no wails about the broken nails which had taken weeks to grow. The,girls which have the least ability—the almost hopeless variety—are eliminated, but there are few of these. A few home runs and double plays boost the morale and interest of even the weakest sister. The umpires are here, too—the girls who, after long hours of practice, take their lives in their hands to umpire a game. In addition, teams are managed by captains, ho see that each girl gets a chance to play. Bruised knees, aching muscles, long hours of practice mean little to girls who have the will to play and win. 66 • BOYS’ BASEBALL Not far behind the Yankees, Dodgers, Giants, and other major league clubs, Red Bank’s young baseball aspir- ants plunged into their early spring training with a gusto peculiar to R. B. H. S. athletic teams. By- getting that early start the boys expected to obtain a starting berth, and, once situated, to give some of their traditional rivals the shellacking they so richly (we think) deserved. Soon after organizing. Coach Ross Wiley learned, much to his dismay, that his starting teams had been unmerci- fully torn asunder by graduation, age limits, and innumer- able other ineligibility laws, leaving only three lettermen on the entire squad! Coach Wiley, however, with his usual perspicuity, proceeded to put the best nine men on the field. The team not only proved their ability at bat and in the field, but they also turned out to be Beau Brum- mels” in their brand new maroon and gray uniforms. Throughout the season the team depended mostly on brilliant fielding by the smaller boys, rather than heavy slugging by the local giants. Despite this, there were occa- sions when the big guns rolled out and opened fire. The only difficulty was that these were disappearing cannons and sometimes failed to reappear for too long intervals. However, at times, the Maroon” team showed far better than high school ability, putting on exhibitions worthy of semi-pro” aggregations. Most of the best games were played in Central Jersey Conference competition, with such old enemies” as Long Branch, South River, and Carteret, etc. At any rate, win or lose, the boys gave everything they had and, as Mr. Wiley say, No coach could ask for more.” I .eft to right, fir-t row: Raymond Catalano.

The team is composed of several seasoned veterans and many un- seasoned competitors in many events. It will have seasoned participants in the weights and pole-vault. The dashes have been strengthened by the presence of Thomas Sim- mons, David Wilson, and Clinton Doughty. Others taking part in the remaining field and distance events are Louis Dell’Omo, Morgan Eilert, Gcronimo Brandon, and Francis Brandon. Some of our present team may be able to replace names of previous track record holders in sheet. our school. Here are the records.
