Four LITERATURE THE BARBER DAVID SANDUSKY As the barber heard the turning of the lock, he threw aside the “Plato” he was reading for educational purposes, and glanced at the clock. It was 9:50 and the customer coming in now would be the last before closing time. The barber straightened his rather rumpled white jacket and said, “Good evening.” The man slipped off his coat, loosened his tie, and slid hurriedly into the barber’s chair. “Quick haircut and shave, please,” he said. While tying the sheet, the barber thought, “Rather seedy fellow. Good clothes though—must be in a hurry to get somewhere”—and thinking no more of it he gave his customer the haircut. The barber tried to start a conversation with the man, and his customer had answered politely enough, but with little interest. And now as he ran his razor across the lathered face, he studied it abstractly as he was wont to do with all who sat in his barber's chair. The obser- vations he made to himself showed a keen accurateness developed only by constant practice. Sensitive, rather weak face, had an easy life and now when the going's rough he can't quite make the grade—rather worried about something or other. We all have our troubles, I guess”. . . and his mind shifted to his own cares, the gravity of which he was able to conceal from everybody but his wife and himself. Barbering in a small town wasn't a paying proposition. The farmers would sooner allow their whiskers to grow than spend the fifty cents for a haircut and shave. He couldn't get rid of the shop; hospital bills to be paid; and a doctor for his wife and month-old baby. Too bad Janet had to be tied down to a failure such as he. Then realizing the futility of self-pity, he turned his attention again to the man in his chair. “Odd,” he thought, “Tve seen that fellow before. Couldn't be pos- itive though—might have seen his picture. Then he remembered—it was yesterday. At the post office he had watched the sheriff nailing up a poster advertising the search for Godfrey Wood. Wood was wanted for forgery, and what had interested the barber most was the five hun- dred dollars offered for his capture. Five hundred dollars was just the sum he needed to put himself on his feet again. What luck! Funny, though, he should be back only ten miles from Midlan where he's wanted, when he could be on his way to Mexico by now” The riddle absorbed the barber; he pondered over it, but still a logical explanation eluded him. It didn’t matter, though—what mat- tered was that here was the chance to garner the reward. It should be an easy job to subdue him. The bulletin had mentioned that the forger was not a killer, and he was bigger and stronger than the man. But still that little detail fretted the barber until at last he asked casually: You're in a hurry to get somewhere, aren't you? The man did not answer. Suddenly the customer burst out: Have to be in Midlan as soon as possible. My wife's having a baby! She's pretty sick, I hear. Couldn't let her see me as I was . І� spite of himself the barber was sympathetic. � “Must have loved his wife,” he reasoned, to come back to see her with all the police in the state looking for him. Hard on the poor fellow, but still he's wanted by the law, and I need the money! As the barber was thus torn between his conscience and his pocket- book, he heard from upstairs a baby beginning to cry. He listened and soon he heard the low, soothing voice of his wife quieting the child. Then silence— The setness of the barber's lips softened, the struggle within him subsided and swiftly and surely he finished shaving his customer. The man arose quickly, straightened his necktie, and donned his coat. He handed a half-dollar to the barber and as he opened the door he heard the barber call cheerily, “Good luck!” The barber put the coin in the cash register, bolted the door, picked up his Plato, extinguished the light, and walked slowly up the stairs. PROFUNDITY Words, Interlopers of thought, Idiots’ coın. Ah, would that you were not, And all expression Found in music, In poetry, In lovely contemplation. You say words are beautiful? No, Only a poet’s dream, Only a composer’s fantasy Is verbal beauty. REFLECTION Eyes, the still waters of the sou wherein the heart is seen as a shadow deep in the pool; and dropped pebbles, make unceasing patterns of prismatic life. Mary LITWIN FLORENCE C. BAZELON But dreams are bred in silence; And silence Is the wise man’s god. Would too, All peoples of the world were mute And only birds Could utter sound. Then music And poetry And all things wonderful on this earth Would live. REQUIEM Weep not for babes who breathe but once and die Nor at the closing of an age- dimmed eye, But for the young, with glowing eyes, who say: “When I am grown” and never reach that day. MARLENE URBACH MELODY FLoRENCE C. BAZELON Silently he made his way through the lonely night. Before him dimly shone the lights of a distant town. Of course Mibs was happy, she was free. At the moment her attention was entirely focussed upon the all-important subject of what gown to wear. He stumbled, but by straining every muscle, ex ery nerve, he man aged to save himself from falling and continued on his way. The dim lights shone brighter. Mibs chanted a popular tune. Her heart was lighter than air: her voice, a terrible one for tone, sounded sweet with happiness. She took a pale orchid mussoline de soie creation, that billowed and ruffled in a most becoming manner, from its hanger. She held it up to her and was quite pleased with the effect. She continued to hum. A transparent melody shimmered above his head. It entered his consciousness and entangled itself about his senses. Dazed. he listened. Awed, he memorized its beauty, while his heart sang the words, the wordless words. How bright the lights were. “Goodnight, Mom, Pm taking the car and calling for Byrdie. Don’t expect me for breakfast.” The melody grew louder, the lights dazzled, slowly he climbed the worn porch steps. Mibs slammed the car door shut and rushed up the worn porch steps three at a time, almost colliding with the figure huddled at the top of the steps. “Hello, what's this? Who are you? Мі fairly screamed with fright and breathlessness. The figure was humming a strange haunting tune that sounded sweet yet hollow to Mibs' ears. The man scarcely noticed the girl as he continued to hum his melody. It swam through her mind; its wantonness, like some beautiful image, hypnotized her, until even her voice was enslaved. and she too began to hum. Their voices, scarcely audible, clung together, blend ing, while the hollow tone vanished and a new fullness sounded. The stranger turned to her and smiled a slow deliberate smile, that tore at her heart, suffocating her. Then, after rising, gripping her shoulders and looking deep into Mibs’ eyes, he disappeared. Eight years later, a woman, matured beyond her years took her place in the Mayor's Box at the Grand Music Hall. With her was her husband, the Mayor. People pointed them out as the perfect couple, for none could see inside of her heart. The leader raised his baton, the lights dimmed, the overture began. The melody seethed through her brain, haunting her, hypnotizing her, enslaving her voice and once again she began to hum a tune that her heart had memorized long before. Her husband turned to look at ier and to his understanding eye came the vision ОЇ his wite... Tree, I SEEK THE CRYSTAL STREAM | seek the crystal stream, Where on soft whispers The ev enıng W ind comes to cool itself... For I would bathe in diamond water, nd would drink of liquid like the morning dew Limpidly it runs over smooth white pebbles, In a far-away land where the sun sets a wondrous purple, nd birds who shame the flaming peacock, O'erflow with so divine a rain of melody He stills his lyre, does Israfel, to listen in despair . . . And when the last violet tinge has left the sky, And the harmony diurnal has slow ly thinned to silence. Stoops the evening W ind over a my stic paradise l'o sway in utter tranquility, E'er departing on pulsating wings To cool the night of other lands... Ah yes [ seek the crystal stream, Where on soft whispers, The evening wind comes to cool itself ç Re Davip SANDUSKY ETERNAL QUESTION The child’s round eyes were | turned о� me: Returning later with troubled Oh, what is beyond the sky? face, | she asked: What is beyond the space? Space, I answered, stroking her asked she, J I head. І found myself answering hol- “Oh!”—and she skipped off hap- lowly, pily. Space, I whispered, Space— space—space!” MARLENE URBACH TANTALUS THELMA LEVITT The rain rushed violently down in torrents. The night was bleak and gray. The man drew his filthy, tattered coat collar about him and shivered. His drawn, hungry face looked pathetically envious as he stared at the warmly clothed pedestrians passing to and fro. His brain seemed to throb with a steady beat, Something to eat! Something to eat! He blew on his hands to put some warmth into them. Suddenly a car came to an abrupt stop, and the chauffeur opened the door for a woman whose throat and arms were covered with jewels. As she stood for a moment, apparently waiting for someone, the beggar noticed hanging from her wrist, a bracelet which was held from falling to the ground by a tiny catch. His heart pounded as he realized how easily the bracelet might fall—fall into his possession. He grew faint and closed his eyes a second as if to gain vitality. He moved slowly towards the woman. His plan was to lurch drunkenly against her quite accidentally. That would loosen the bracelet into his hands. He glanced about him to see that no one was watching. Reassured he moved closer and closer to her and stretched out his grimy hand. Suddenly, the bracelet grew larger and larger and began to whirl around and around. The woman, the car, the people, the houses, all whirled about him into space. The woman turned as a small crowd of people gathered near her. What happened? she asked, as a man arose from his kneeling posi tion near the prostrate figure. Dead, poor beggar! he exclaimed. ARTEMIS She, is a sliver of silver, now a gleaming disk. But the clouds PIONEER are jealous. They smother her and tear her apart, and make her vanish. Yet she returns again and grows again eternally. Is it Artemis or yet another? Mary Litwin He stands alone In a world that is cruel To theorists. He waits alone For his brethren to follow Where they want not to go. He came alone, And waits tirelessly But they will come At the end of a millenium. RurH LEWITTER x О ፦ ኢጋ es = en Abramson, Herbert A.

Secretarial University of Newark Zommer, Christine Cousin, Jean MONOLOGUE Shadows stretch somberly across our path, They are dim shadows, yet dark enough, That we must peer carefully ahead Lest we stumble into the obscurity Which lines either side of the narrow way. You say: Shadows are intangible, nothingness, And a light can easily dispel them. But do you carry that shining light? You say: Surely, four years have testified to that! Yes, you have been catalogued, your virtues extolled Your accomplishments recognized and accorded. But beyond these shadows, out there Will they realize your merits, your wisdom, Will they bear your faults and correct them, Concede your attainments, and give you your due? Then we wonder—have these things been too easily acknowledged, Have they been overestimated DAVID SANDUSKY Thirty-three CLASS WILL Four years ago, we, who are now the mighty Seniors of South Side, were new-born high school students. Now, we are about to leave this life. We feel it necessary, at the point of our departure from this world into the future life, to leave behind us, a will, so that our benefactors (its benficiaries) shall profit thereby (we hope). We, representatives of the Class of January in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred thirty- seven, being hearby sound in mind (yeah! solid throughout) and body, do hereby draw up this: LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE CLASS OF JANUARY, Section I: To Mr. Belcher, our principal: The high esteem and gratitude of this Senior Class for giving us his helpful advice and constructive criticism. Section II: To Mr. Strong, our class adviser: Faint recollections of the 4B class committee. Section III: To our Teachers: (a) Mr. Kirk— That some day he might penetrate the South Side skull and inflict upon it some History facts. (b) Miss Rivoli— The sympathy attached to the proof problem. (c) Mr. Cain The pleasure of satisfying future Seniors with fewer tickets than the few we had. (d) Mr. Gordon— The tortures of instructing the band during the football season. (e) Mr. Warenreich А depletion in the ranks of his Optimist circulation staff. (f) Mr. Hutchinson— The worry over that Senior debt. Section IV: To tbe Senior B's: The ideal of an Optimist with five pictures on a page, and a prom outside the school. Section V: Advice to Fresbmen: Be good kiddies and listen to teachers. Never argue with Seniors. Section VI: To the school at large: (a) The bad odors of the Chem. lab. (b) The front of the school for seating purposes. (c) The faculty who are now convalescing from the ordeal of tol- erating us for four years. We do bereby appoint Mr. Franklin Strong, executor of this, our last will and testament. We set in witness thereof, our last seal, this January, in the year of our Lord nineteen bundred and thirty-seven. Thirty-four Un Q — = 65 а ар ፦ BOYS Again the time comes when our athletic coaches are hurt and grieved by— Yes! You've guessed it. Graduation! This class of Febru ary, 1937, will take with it no less than fourteen members from seven different teams. Oh my! From the baseball team, our diamond maestro, Mr. Ben Leon, will lose two valuable letter men, Seymour Solomon, and Morris Steinberg, who won his letter as the team manager. Coach Thornton will have to do without Donald Powell and Thomas Ryan next year. Both of these boys won their block S Powell as a halfback and Ryan for managing the team so diligently. Four members of Mr. Thornton's track team will not start with the gun for South Side next year. Although none of them received their letters for this sport, they copped many a point for their dear old Alma Mamma on the cinders. These fellows are Howard Popper, the sprinter, Edward Weinberg and Henry (Red) Prosnitz, the team's hurdlers, and David Sandusky, the javelin hurler. Escaping from South Side will be three members of our City Championship swimming team. All three of these swimming sharks have earned their gold S . They are Philip Trachtenberg, the back stroke star; William MacGregor, the team's free-style man; and Martin Steinberg, who efficiently managed the team for two seasons on its championship voyage. Although Mr. Cain will lose only one member of his fencing team with the going of this class, he is one of the main cogs of our excellent group of gladiators ; Robert Schoen, who has captained and led the fencing team for two years. He was feared by South Side's strongest rivals. Of course, he was the recipient of the script S that goes to all deserving fencers. Now, last but by no means least, we have Jack Gonshak, star of the uncoached but mighty gym team. Jack owes all that he knows and does in the way of gymnastics only to himself. He earned the Gym Team emblem in no uncertain fashion. GIRLS With this term's graduation, goes the last class to see the glories of the old South Side annex, where boys were boys and girls were the athletic stars. Them whar the days when our present athletes thought hockey was played on a horse. But despite this, the annex yielded mighty fine girl athletes, such as Mina Gerber, Rhoda Krueger, Dorothy Walk- enberg, Harriet Singer, Eleanor Schessler, Christine Zommer, and Helen Bishop, all mighty wielders of the hockey stick. Due recognition must be given to Miss Rubinow, the one Madisonite in our midst. Jean, take your bow! If we brag when we say our athletes are the “real stuff”, we have good cause. The proof is in the pudding, may we present ours? In 1934, Mina was awarded the position of left fullback on the North Jersey Hockey Team, while in 1935, Rhoda placed right halfback on the second team. It was that very year, just after Miss Ryder left, that these same girls coached the others, and it was that year that the hockey girls played so well when representing South Side at the North Jersey hockey meet, and as a result, won three places—the best record yet to be met with. Yes, Mina and Rhoda also rate high as coaches. While these girls were busy smacking hockey balls around, Marge List and Catherine Holgate kept themselves occupied slamming ping- pong balls back and forth. Here were two female athletes who jeopar- dized the boys’ reputation, but even they, and you know how grudg- ingly they pay homage to female athletic prowess, had to admit that Marge and Catherine were just tops. And did you know Marge won the girls’ championship? In fact, all she needed to beat the boys was the chance. W-h-i-z—bull’s eye! Watch yore noses, fellers, them thar gals shore can handle bows and arrows. Have you watched them? Well I have, and I’m here to tell you, they’re crack shots. Here again Christine, Eleanor, Harriet, Jean, Mina, Rhoda, and also Doris Hoagland excelled. Our Dianas were invited to the state tournament held at Panzer College, where four-man teams from the whole state of New Jersey competed. Great was their surprise and joy, when, after a fine complimentary speech in their favor, our girls won high individual honors in addition to the elegant placque awarded for the highest points. The team was photographed with the trophy proudly displayed to the best advantage, and the newspapermen promptly left with their spoils, when lo and behold, the trophy was taken back midst a great apology. Yes, just a mistaken calculation! But, only secondarily are our girls athletes, pri- marily they are good sports. Moreover, our girls came out second, and were only fifteen points behind the winning team. Here Rhoda Krueger won second place in individual honors, a South Side alumnus having taken first place. Yes, sir, with hockey sticks raised above his head and arrows whiz- zing past his ears, a fellow’s life just isn’t safe around these hyere parts. Thirt -seven $ i 3 CLASS OFFICERS Behold our class officers— We elected them. competent and dependable, or Why? Was it because they were because they were just good sorts ? Perhaps the logical answer is that they are a happy median, talented but friendly also. Seymour Feder, our President, is ably assisted by Leslie Grubin, Ruth Drazin, and Morty Grebelsky; as Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer respectively. We thank them and approve of them. Thirty-eight HONOR SOCIETY To South Side belongs the privilege of membership in the National Honor Society. This is an organization of more than 1200 chapters scattered throughout all parts of the nation. The South Side Honor Society became a chapter of the national organization in 1929. It is composed of those students of the 3A, 4B, and 4A classes who have attained high standards of Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service. They have served South Side this year in various ways; the most important being the preparation of a handbook of information concerning all activities of the school. The senior members of our Chapter are as follows: Henrietta Spingarn; Florence Bazelon; Ruth Feldman; Miriam Wilensky; Mina Gerber, president; Miss White, spon- sor; Jack Hosid, secretary; Shirley Gelfand; Mae Salinger; Norma Melchior; Anna Haye; Florence Opperman; Marjorie List; Jean Rubinow; Rhoda Krueger; Doris Hoag- land; Jane Levy; Beatrice Bernstein; Donald Powell; Harold Glaser; George Dowden; Dorothy Walkenberg; Helen Krasner; Seymour Feder; Richard Newman; Irving Wizon; Joseph Bernstein; Jack Geist; Sylvia Goldstein.

Forty-one PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB Photography is a very absorbing subject and the Photography Club is a popular one. The keen interest evinced during one of the contests is ample proof of that. It is needless to say that the club has developed many interesting studies. The picture above is comprised of both the Senior and Junior Photography group. Мг. C. Norman Finkel is in charge of the two. The officers of the Senior division are President, Seymour Lehrhoff; Vice President, Morton Batlan; and Secretarv, Florence Leviss. The Junior division is headed by Julian Batlan, President; Bessie Lakos, as Vice President; and Helen Hanz, as secretary. Forty-two THE SENIOR DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club, under the able supervision of Mr. Joyce, has once again completed a successful season with the presentation of that hilarious play, The Call of The Banshee”. The finances were handled by Miss Gennet and Mr. Weinert, while credit for technical effects goes to Mrs. Coe, and the art department. The club is functioning smoothly under the leadership of the following officers. The President is Florence Held, Bernard Goldstein is the Vice President, and Anne Petlock is the Secretary. Forty-three JUNIOR SECRETARIES CLUB The Junior Secretaries Club came into existence with the introduction о! the commercial courses in South Side High School. The members, just as the name implies, are the secretaries of the future. Т� е club has attained its present size ind efficiency through the training and guidance of its faculty adviser, Miss Lillian Doroson. The officers аге as follows: President, Helen Krasner; Vice President, Selma Sheitelman; Secretary, Shirley Gelfand. The club was organized for the purpose of giving our commercial students а chance to come і� closer contact and familiarize themselves with the procedure and etiquette of the business world. To achieve this aim lectures, debates, plays, and investigations ot business concerns are planned. Forty-four BUSINESS GIRLS' CLUB The Business Girls’ Club is a newly formed organization at South Side this vear. It was organized under the guidance of Miss Carrie E. Rivoli, Commercial Teacher. The purposes are: 1. Developmen Jf persona for business and societv. 2. Promotion of general culture and civic improvement. 3. The development of social intercourse.

DEDICATION With great respect and deep appreciation, we dedicate this year book to Samuel Howe, our class adviser. ROMANCE IN THE cota een AGE By David Sanger As our blunt nosed, rusty old tramp steamer came noisily up the bay, the fat man next to me gave a sorrowful sigh and mourned aloud, Look at those il tanks, those ugly wires and that awful smoke; yes, the age of beauty and art is gone.” Then as we approached the new bridge, with its gigantic spider web of shining steel wire, the man sighed once more and shuffled off to the cabin to listen to his radio. I stayed on deck to watch the moon and the stars make themselves visible once more to the people of the earth and began to muse on the opinion of my fellow traveler. Is the age of beauty dead? Have we in our desire for speed and luxury left out that which appeals to the heart and finer senses of man? Is it deplorable that the white winged majestic ships of yesterday are no more and their modern brothers are ugly metallic beasts? Is the fact to be mourned that the shores I am passing are no longer green with nature's beauties but are lined with smoke-belching factories? Should one be sad that poles holding many interlacing wires blot out the sky? I thought longer and tried to find something in favor of modern times, some idea that would justify our pro- gress. The fat man was below, listening to a concert from the other side of the world as he munched a ripe banana. The traveler of many years ago in his beautiful ship, beautiful from a distance, would be reading an old book, one that he had probably read before as books were hard to make and expen- sive to buy. His fare would be dried foods, such as could be kept for a month’s voyage across the Atlantic without refrigeration. He would not be bothered by the view of ungainly oil tanks on the shore: nor would he be able to travel quickly and cleanly in a train burning that oil. Tall factories would not blot out the landscape; nor would they manufacture countless small articles for his comfort. No bridges or wires above would shut from him the sky; instead a small boat would take a messenger, maybe on a life or death errand, slowly to his destination. The fat man could easily go to places where man’s hand has not disturbed the works of nature, but the ancient traveler could not have all the comforts and opportunities to enjoy the culture of the world which is so lightly held by the other. Our steel prowed, low funnelel ocean greyhounds are things of beauty. Our cars no longer have distastefully sharp edg es but are built with flowing stream lines. The new factories that are being built have large sun-inviting windows and are sometimes guarded by rows of trees. The newer communi- ties have the workers’ homes and recreation centers apart from their work- shops. Flowery Victorian and unnatural modernistic art has given way to the simpler and more effective. If we don’t let our machines surround us and shut out our view, if we can keep their noise, filth and ugliness at a minimum and not let them become a part of our being, we can make the Industrial Age one of greater culture and beauty than any before and still gain that extra comfort we are sacrificing so much for now. BEAUTY THE POET ONE SENIOR’S WORRIES By L. Melvin Grubin Oh! It was good to be alive! So thought Tom Bryant as whistling, he galloped up the narrow and damp alley. Not mindful of the few fences and hedges to be hopped, this was a short cut to his home and Tom certainly wanted to get there quickly. For one thing, he was hungry; second and the most important reason was that most likely IT had come. For days, for weeks, for months, he had been awaiting this hour; fearing to ask questions and not wanting to make any arrangements before he knew. Ever since he could remember, he had been patiently listening to the recurrent babble of his older brothers, home from college, but only recently had he taken any interest. They told of their experiences at the proms, dances, and social functions that were part of their regular high school and campus life. They had had the good fortune to have this time come before the depression when all the clothes and money to do these things could be obtained. Sometimes, these “men of the world” would tell of their ventures into New York night life after one of those affairs, at two, three, and even four o'clock in the morning. The descriptions of the beautiful clothes, the Cadillacs and Rolls Royces, the super-service at this place and the singing waiters at that, the various liquors they had imbibed, the hot dance band here, the soft dreamy orchestra there, and the fabulous sums that were spent, sounded like entrancing music to the ears of the baby of the family,” as he was often called. He would sit there with mouth agape, absorbing it all like a dry sponge plunged into water. Alone in his room, he dreamt of the proms and dinner-dances he would attend where he himself would be one of these sophisticates (he had already practiced good table manners at home to the amazement of his parents). He would imagine himself at a table in a fashionable night club later on ordering a “gin fizz” or a scotch and soda”; not that he would drink it. To him this was grandeur; the sumptuous food, the formal clothes, the dazzling entertainment, and he would be part of it. These were the thoughts of this ordinary boy as he returned dirty and unkempt from playing football with the neighborhood gang. He was gradu- ating this term and would not have much time to play in the future. For a moment he meditated on the graduation night when he and his fellow gradu- ates would enter the silent assembly with hesitating step and ascend finally to the stage where they would receive their diplomas and from which they would descend to start their careers in life. Just as quickly as these serious thoughts had appeared, they faded and his mind turned again to the present and the impending social affair. The Senior Prom is the most important social event in the life of the high school student. Whom one is going to take and what will happen are discussed a long time before the day. Tom had gone to numerous parties but this was to be his first big function and as he scaled the last hedge he realized the awful fact that IT might not have arrived. But reassuring himself, he Page Eight THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER CONTINUITY UTOPIA could If we со and have that imagine the fut But if man brain, the present true joy was moments arte lives happiness an Our new man by other complex Thank goo DESOLATION of God Wal gases kill гоа! гар with little ily; now he fights murdering tens of spending hundreds of to slaughter pea eful es of immortal fame and r a living death yet it hurts the poor mother, who has nursed her child from an infant to a man after many hard re rful years, only t e him swept away, blown into dust in an instant.

General Undecid CONFIDENCE WITH CAUTION We are leaving a world of our own which has been centered around ош high school years. Many problems have been encountered and through the assistance of our faculty, we have coped with them successfully Upon enter- ing the world of today, we will observe that it will not give us the tolerance and leniency ihe! we've been accustomed to. By using careful judgment and discretion we should be able to make our way accordingly The student should appreciate the fact that the instant he leaves high school, he can hardly expect to be a world beate: Far be it from that! The idea that is trying to be conveyed is that conditions have improved such an extent that the high school graduate of today has a much better chance of getting a position than the graduate of yesterday. There are two types of students who are, I’m afraid, going to meet with heavy disappointment. One is the timid, bashful individual who upon being asked whether or not he can fulfill certain requirements will hesitatingly venture, I think so although he knows that he is capable of performing these requirements perfectly. You can hardly expect to sell your services to others if you give the impression of doubting yourself On the other hand, the noisy fellow who has over-confidence and over- assurance written all over him will find that he is as handicapped as the backward boy. There is nothing so annoying to an employer as the smart- aleck type who is positive of knowing it all. A week of telling others how to mind their respective businesses will find this type of person without a position nor references for a future one. Both of these cases are of course extremes, and we must strike a happy medium. A clean-cut graduate, who can inquire about a position in a quiet and businesslike manner and yet manage to convey the confidence which he feels within himself, without offering the attitude of being cocky, is the likely candidate for whatever position he chooses. People have become successful while others have been miserable failures. The graduate of today should be able to profit by these experiences of others. Irving Lubin. SSHS He had the proof,— the picture, there; And as he gazed a steady stare He saw that it was he. And as hard as he might try, He could find no other guy Who he would rather be. From this likeness he could see A pile of personality. So now he felt quite satisfied But how his touched-up photo lied! Page Forty-five AND NOW GOODBYE All farewells are essentially the same They are summaries gay and happy events that have passed in review дом We have risen from the и enificance a freshman t the comparative importance Of a senior! We have stored in our hearts memories that will never be forgotten Memories of exciting football games, the routine of classes and assemblies, the shuffle of hurrying feet through the corridors, the weary flights of steps, the breathless scampering to homeroom, and the nervous distribution of report cards And now, to all this, we seniors must say good-bye. To the walls, to the teachers, to friends, to everything, good-bye. With sorrow-laden hearts, we leave our Alma Mater to take our places in the world. We thank you, South Side, for everything, for love and hepe, and despair, and above all for pleasant memories May our tomorrows be : s bright as our yesterdays, and may our yesterdays live forever as tomorrows Elsie Nastrom. REMINISCENCE Jack Kay The scene is a crowded classroom in the first week of a new term with the pupils in a few cases sitting two in a seat. The laughter is jerky, nervous, and spasmodic although the teacher has just told one of his jokes that is really good. The reason for this situation is one of the freaks of nature, for these students have all been fortunate to be assigned to a teacher who has in a few minutes completely won their friendship and confidence. But the “Grim Reaper,” alias one of the Schedule Committee, is expected momentarily Outbursts of anguish and pain are heard through the rooms as someone calls out the names of the teachers that correspond to the rooms and periods mentioned. Some pupils, giving up all hope of salvation, raise their hands as it is inevitable that they will be chosen, for they have a free period at that time. Others are stricken dumb when they realize that they have only a minor subject one of the designated periods which can easily be changed. Cringing, they attempt to cling to their fast sinking ships. The long, drawn out process of looking at everyone's card is then begun with the fatalities, complaints, and groans many. Students and teachers, including the Schedule Committee after they have swept through the ranks changing this one and that one, are puzzled over this condition: Why should the pupils fear to be changed to another teacher Shakespeare said, The fear of the unknown makes us rather bear those ills we have, than fly to others that we know not of.” Page Forty-six Athletics Once more Fathe the numerous sports и Among aptured the City Swimming ( hampionship for the third isecuti a [hey inch rving Lubin, breaststroke star, and Sidney Sirkin, backstroke; Joel Estrin, cousin of another of South Side's former tanksters, who showed us how to swim the relay also how to dive with the at ease; al Mort Michaels, the who led the way in tl 2: Morton Singer and Bill Birmingham represented South Side Coach Thornton will lose Leon Seigel.

Buddy, who held a forward position, has shown true South Side sportsmanship throughout his athletic career. He also turned in an excellent record in baseball last year Our Table Tennis team has to bear the loss of Seymour Cohn, captain of the boys who maneuver that little white ball across the net with victorious results. Barney Epstein was also captain of the reorganized Tennis team Charles Banks, Ray Coraggio, Steve Kovac, Steve Wasko, Mich ael Krawacki, and Phil Reisman of famous South Side’s Gym team will also depart. The Track team will be without the services of Ernest Smith, Sam Tabolsky, Julius Cohen, Paul Barr, Milton Klein, also Messrs Seigel, James, Lembrick, Seymour Cohn, Raymond Powell, and Morton Batlan will be missed by our Fencing team All these boys have performed splendidly during their stay in South Side They have led the way, and we sincerely believe that future generations will look up to them with the same pride and glory that we feel today Athletes: South Side salutes you! Page Forty-eight GIRLS From the large number of girls who have participated in athletics, it is evident that the boys are not the only ones who have found real enjoyment in them. Even though girls do not receive a large block S as a reward for activity in a sport, they derive as much pleasure as those boys who make the first team There is a place for every type of girl athlete. For the more robust, we have hockey, swimming, basketball, and horseback riding, while the less active take part in ping-pong, volley ball, archery and dancing Often, even on a bitter cold day, hockey enthusiasts could be seen en joying an exciting game in preparation for the North Jersey Field Hockey Association Tournament. The most capable players were chosen to represent South Side in it. They were: Ruth Kreps, Frieda Lembrick, Rosalind Barnett, Bessie Wex, Jane Zink, and Florence Jones. From this group, Ruth Kreps was awarded a position on the North Jersey Hockey Team, which 15 the highest award a player may obtain. Frieda Lembrick was placed on the honorary team. Basketball, a few years ago, held a high place in the interest of the following girls: Harriet Gluck. Grace Eisen, Frieda Lembrick, Ruth Kreps, Alla Kamins, Harriet Papier, Florence Jones, Sylvia Dubowy, Jane Zink and Caroline Sudfeld. A group of mermaids calling themselves the South Side swimming squad under the leadership of our own gym teachers has made much progress in that line of athletics. Jessie Anderson, Theresa Pabst, Grace Eisen, Rose Volick. Wanda Shaw, Caroline Sudfeld, Helen Systo, Betty Asen, Jane Zink, and Florence Jones are among those who have held a position on the squad Along with Spring comes Archery. It may not seem a strenuous sport to you but it requires a great deal of skill. There are many girls who will never forget the many pleasant times spent at Archery practice. Among South Side’s fair Dianas are Rosalind Barnett, June Fude, Wanda Shaw, Bernadette Allgayer, Sylvia Dubowy, Grace Eisen, Helen Horn, Ruth Kreps, Catherine Casson, Caroline Sudfeld and Eleanor Spicer. While hockey balls or arrows are flying through the air, other girls are smacking ping-pong balls about the table tennis room. Hermine Hersh, one of the most enthusiastic players, recently gained recognition as the champion. Edith Rettig held that same position last year. Along with other school activities, sports have contributed to making our stay at South Side unforgettable and pleasant.
