JACK PIETRUSKI THOMAS VAZQUEZ MILDRED WISTUBA DOROTHY NEBUS Fellow Classmates, We have finally reached the day of our graduation. It has arrived faster than we ex- pected. We deeply regret that our seemingly short, four years at Sayreville High are over, but we believe that we are prepared for what- ever is before us. I am quite certain that in the many and varied fields that we enter—education, industry or business, all of us vjill eventually meet with success. We must not only be successful in our life undertakings, we must also be worthwhile citizens. We must strive to keep this nation the great one that it is. It will mean work, but we, the younger generation, believe that we have the basic qualifications for this under- taking. Nothing must discourage us from con- tinuing our efforts to acquire the qualities of good citizenship. Now as we rapidly conclude this school- chapter of our life, we shall be parting. Wher- ever each of you may go and whatever each of you may do, I wish you success and may God be with you. Sincerely, JACK PIETRUSKI i i)

MRS. ANGELICA MARRA Mrs. Marra, our class adviser, began with us in our Sophomore year. Unfailingly she remained to see us through our three years of high school. We feel, Mrs. Marra, that you have directed us on the right path—the one that leads to a satisfactory future. You worked hard with us; we know the job wasn't easy. You have helped us conquer seemingly high barriers. Without your steady, patient guidance, our feeble attempts for success would have been mere graspings in the dark. You stayed with us even at times when we were wrong. We are sorry for the occasions when our thoughtlessness brought discord. But, through your wise counseling, we are sure we would select you again to advise us. In return, we hope you would choose us. Our debt to you is a great one which cannot be sum- marized in a few inadequate sentences. We want to say that we will never forget your assistance in making our high school days contented and enlightening ones. As we look back on them, in years to come, we will automatically associate your name with our happiness. We will cherish these pleasant memories among our souvenirs. In conclusion, we think it best to choose the most simply expressive and yet most appropriate words to make known our gratitude. Thank you, Mrs. Marra, from the bottom of our hearts. 10

SENIORS DOLORES ANDERSEN 24 Washington Road Sayreville Freshman Class (President), Sub-Deb (President), Student Council, Band, Echo- Lites, Dramatics, Executive Committee. Yearbook. Whenever there is a football or basketball game, you may be sure that Lorrie is in the stands ready to throw that confetti. Her ardent spirit for her school has made Dolores a true team- backer and activity-follower. DENNIS CONNORS 7 Midland Avenue Morgan Football. Basketball. J. V. Baseball, Baseball Manager, Junior Musical. Band. But it's you I love, Francis Marie, explained our humorous Denny in the Junior Musical Comedy. Sports and girls rate high with him. Connors' witty remarks from the back of the room and his ever-ready helping hand have made him tops with all his classmates. PETER CASEY 104 Miller Avenue Sayreville Band, Football, Junior Class (Treasurer). Casey is known for his active sense of humor. Active because it is cur- rently driving the teachers MAD! Ah! We shall never forget his brilliant por- trayal of Tarzan, when garbed in cat skins and roaring loudly, he entertained the physic's class by swinging from imaginary vines!!! ANDREW CROSS 11 Perrine Avenue Melrose Echo-Lites, Hunting and Fishing, Junior Play. Chef Club, Yearbook. Whether on land, on the sea or in the air, Andy will always stick up for his N. Y. Yankees. He also proved he was a Sayreville High fan by his at- tendance at all the games. In the future Andy has high hopes of becom- ing a welder. GEORGE CHEVALIER 360 Main Street Sayreville Hunting and Fishing, Radio Club. About 8:30 on a school morning, when we hear a roar of a motor and a screech of brakes, we know it's Chevy. Chevy, always ready with a smile, is one of our most cheerful sen- iors. After next June we'll probably be seeing him under a car making some intricate repairs. HELEN CZERNIKOWSKI 183 Main Street Sayreville Student Council, Yearbook (Advertising Staff), Echo-Lites (Business Staff), Junior Class (Secretary), Commercialites, Greg- gittes. Biology, Twirling, Junior Musical. Office Practice. When Hetty rolls her eyes she gets results with a capital R! She is the es- sence of fun and loves a good time. Most of her sentences begin with, Well, ya see, it's like this—. Hetty is as dependable as she is happy.
