4 7 PRESIDENT HAROLD BARTZ President February 19, 1947 DEAR CLASSMATES, Ours is the privilege of graduating at a time when the prospects for a lasting world peace are greater than ever in the history of mankind. It will be our responsibility to contribute to this peace by working to the best of our ability in our chosen fields and by obtaining the maximum amount of education possible; for by preparing ourselves fully, we can best contribute our part, no matter how small, to world understanding. The study habits we have formed in high school, the attitudes we have developed, the clear thinking, and clean sportsmanship we have faith- fully tried to follow are not to be forgotten. These are the qualities we will attempt to develop further in order to make ourselves true citizens of the world. 13 Sincerely, HAROLD BARTZ

SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS 1943—one hundred green little Frosh, fresh from grammar school ■f’o inhabit the halls of S.H.S. The Class was soon organized with Miss Bohm as our adviser. At last, Sophomores—willing and ready to look down upon the Freshmen. The business of reor- ganizing was soon accomplished. The big event of the year was the Soph Hop. Summer vacation came and went, and we were now the Junior Class of Sayreville High School. The Junior Prom was held amid reams of gaily colored crepe paper and bright balloons. Joy unconfined! We are Seniors. The year's activ- ities started off with a bang. We chose a new adviser, Miss Krausz, since Miss Bohm had left the faculty. A nominating committee selected candi- dates and elections were held. Our first gala affair was the Senior Bazaar. It was held in the auditorium, which was divided into halves—one part served as a dance floor, and the other provided a group of concessions including string-pulling, fortune-telling, dart throwing, penny pitching, and weight guessing. Fired with enthusiasm we set out to make our Sen- ior Play a huge success. Cast and committees were chosen and rehearsals began. January 10 and I I were unforgettable as the nights of the actual presentation of our production, A Case of Springtime. Our Senior year has been a fitting close to four years of study and fun. OFFICERS PAUL JANOCHA ....................Vice-President ELEANOR KURCZESKI . .. ........Secretary JEAN McNUTT...........................Treasurer 12

GLORIA ANDERSON 66 MAIN STREET SAYREVILLE Glo Language, Air Navigation, Glee I'm hungry. That’s Gloria, always ready to eat, but still she keeps slim. Her favorite pastimes are writing poetry and eating. She has a deep interest in a certain person, yet she says her future is undecided. Time will tell, Gloria. • ■ ; JOAN ANDERSON 149 MAIN STREET SAYREVILLE Library, Glee, Sub Deb, Student Council, Echo-Lites (As- sistant Circulation Manager, Business Manager), Year- book Do you still recall your initiation into the Freshman Class? Next to roller skating, Joan likes assemblies, bas- ketball, and Sammy Kaye’s orchestra. Crowded lockers and long speeches annoy her. Joan's keen interest in her work will undoubtedly help her become a clever office worker.
