CONTENTS FACULTY Page 5 SENIORS Page 19 SENIOR CHOICES Page 62 QUO VADIS STAFF Page 64 SENIOR MEMORIES Page 66 UNDERCLASSMEN Page 67 UNDERCLASSMEN MEMORIES Page 76 ACTIVITIES Page 77 SPORTS Page 83 FOREWORD On one occasion Aristotle was asked how much educated men were superior to those uneducated: “As much,” said he, “as the living are to the dead.” This statement typifies the ancient Greek's high regard for intellect and education. It is to those people that we look for the roots of education. It is from those people that we gain our democratic educational system. The Greeks strove to learn for the pure joy of learning. The 1959 Quo Vadis strives to convey the ideals of the Greeks by the use of a Greek theme. Through the employment of pictures, words, and thoughts, this yearbook has been enhanced with the beauty and culture of the Greeks. It is the particular aim of Sayreville High School each year to send an educated, well- adjusted group of students into the world of daily living. It would be well for the Class of 1959, upon entering that world, to look again to the Greeks for guidance, philosophy, and wisdom.

GOVERNING BODY From top to bottom: R. Presnal, A. Schussler, J. Ziemba, E. Fielek, M. Guilfoyle, A. Popowski, Mayor; H. Boehm, J. Kolb. The Senior class is deeply indebted to the gov- erning body of Sayreville for the assistance and cooperation which it has given it. There are many occasions on which it has displayed its interest in our school. Youth Week is probably the greatest single event to which it contributes yearly. Its efforts are largely responsible for making this a successful endeavor. The mayor and his council have developed the community into one filled with opportunities. They have made many improvements in the past few years for more efficient handling of governmental operations. The low tax rate which they have sought to maintain encourages further expansion of our present industries and the development of new ones. Perhaps the greatest contribution made by the governing body is the reliable government which they have created. Every member of the commu- nity can be proud of the men who manage its af- fairs. We can give nothing but words of praise for the splendid work which they have done in the past and are certain to continue doing in the future. 6
