South Side High School - Optimist Yearbook (Newark, NJ)

Text from Pages 1 - 120 of the 1951 volume:

1951 OPTIMIST As all passengers do who prepare to leave a train at the next station, we too. take down our suitcase of memories and our packages of worthwhile experiences. Wo can never forget the conductors and porters and engineers who made this part of our trip so memorable. It's not easy, either, to say farewell to our companions as each ono arranges his passage for other tracks, other trains, other destinations. This yearbook is a record of that part of our lives which was the high school journey—our Sentimental Journey. for a SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY conducted by the Senior Classes of SOUTH SIDE HIGH SCHOOL newark, new jersey foreword We jbediccde... There are few people who can look back into the past with such a feeling of fullness of achievement as can Miss Marie Wolfs. Her life has been made rich in a variety of services to others. Those who have associated with her during her years at South Side know full well the warmness of her concern for both faculty and students, and the efficiency of her administration os vice-principal. There are few who know how long is the record of her accomplishments in other fields and in other lands. Caught by the bombing and occupation of Liege. Belgium, in 1914. Miss Wolfs and her sister. Helen, spent three months in the custody of the Germans, until they finally escaped into Holland. It was under these circumstances that her desire to help others received further impetus. She returned to France in 1917 as d rector of the Smith College Relief Unit, where she worked in the villages of the Somme for civilian relief. In the Spring of 1918. she retreated with the 5th British Army evacuating civilians, and feeding refugees. She was later decorated by the French Government for courage and loyalty to the children and aged under bombardment. In 1919, after working in the hospitals of the Argonne region, she returned to the Somme area to establish a dispensary, library and recreation center. In 1923 a new bell was christened in her honor in one of the reconstructed churches of Grecourt, France. In 1924, a replica of the gates of the Chateau of Grecourt was unveiled at Smith College as a gesture of appreciation to Miss Wolfs and the college unit which did so much to “betler understanding between nations of the earth.' At no time has Miss Wolfs relaxed her career of service. She was a member of the central committee of the St. Barnabas Hospital School of Nursing, and a lay member of the N. J. State League of Nursing Education. Her work on the School Committee of the Y.W.C.A. is testimony to her continued interest in the welfare of others. From her high school days in Brooklyn, N. Y.. her college years at Smith and Columbia, to her appointment to East Side High School in 1911, Miss Wolfs has been gathering experience, sincerity and personal charm. Wherever she has gone, fishing in the Outer Hebrides. Europe, crossing the equator to South America, or the Arctic Circle to Spitzbergen. Miss Wolfs has left behind a host of warm friends. It is not at all difficult to understand, now that the record is published, why Miss Wolfs has been loved by all South Siders. She has been to us only what it was natural for her to be. whatever her position or point of geography: a nurse, a director, an advisor, a sympathizer, a friend. Miss Wolfs will never go into retirement: she is only leaving South Side for other adventures, other services. There is so much yet to see. so much yet to do. so many yet to be helped, that we must be grateful for her time with us, and unselfishly share her with a:l others in this wide. w:rie world. ta MiM. MaAie. IVolffL MICHAEL CONOVITZ Principal 4 Besuxvti, o a? THE engineering MRS. ROSE P. SIMONS This is a department charged with great responsibility. It is proudly headed by the efficient and worthy class advisors: Mr. Benjamin Leon and Mrs. Rose Simon. They are expected to safeguard the conditions of the railroad so that it will render satisfactory service. This they have done with the students of our class. Their leadership and understanding of all have made them a great asset to us. We are confident that with their integrity and ability we are sure now of smooth running in future travels. 6 DEPARTMENT Likewise represented in this well organized, ambitious group are the senior homeroom teachers, the engineers with whom we have been associated during our time on this railroad. Their benign smiles and their cogent ways helped us travel more comfortably through many 'hold overs. We will always remember them; for how can we ever forget all the good they have done in our behalf. MISS SARA D. OSTROFF MR. CHARLES ANDERSEN ROBERT SACHS President SANDRA BRASLAWSKY Vice-President ARLENE GOLDSTEIN Secretary Ganduatosil Jusf as conductors are the head men on a train, our class officers are the head men of our class. Conductors are the ones who make the trip smoother and more comfortable for the passengers. the same as our class offeers. Whenever we have any complaints. our class officers iron them out for us. . We are well justified in being proud of our officers, who have been our dependable anc alert conductors. They have made the trip smooth for the crew and passengers through our 4A term.

The tang of autumn brought forth many aspirants from the group. During recent seasons the South Side team has picked itself up from the cellar to a respectable position in City League competition. We know that the boys have been working hard on tackling, blocking, kicking and running. We only hope that our South Side team can show the same sportsmanship for which they are noted, in victory, and in defeat. 7 4e Ricj, 1 16 . . . hUfii pxuveAed touciuixMi) t dsjxexUcvli COACH ASSISTANT COACH Robert Feeney Action Shot!

Basketball is a game where skill and team play are the keystones. To make a team click there must be a lot of cooperation between the coach and the team during the practice sessions. Our teams have always done a credi able job. They are in keeping with the long line of South Side teams that have shown fight and the will to work. 37 iaAeJtaU Baseball is another sport in which the Senior Class has made itself felt. The South Side team has always proven itself a worthy opponent to any team, always finishing in good standing. The recent South Side teams have been no different from the rest. The boys have that hust'e and drive needed to make a winning combination. We hope that the team following this one will keep up the same high South Side tradition.

The track team has often made other schools wish that they had never heard of us. Aside from the running events, there are other things that may be attempted on the track team, such as: high jumping, broad jumping, throwing the javelin and discus, and pole-vaulting. South Siders have had that certain something that makes them want tc win, and they have won. bringing glory to themselves and honor to our school. COACH Otto Stoll ASSISTANT COACH COACH Charles Andersen Gn iA. Gou+ttsui Over hill and over dale, we have hit the dusty trail. is the first line of a famous fighting song which could also be the battle song of South Side's cross-country team. Running is something that is done by most of us at one time or another, but not the way these boys do it. In this sport the person runs by himse f; a teammate can't help him along as in other sports. You either have it’ or you don't. South Side teams have already proven to the dismay of many opponents that they have it. We know that future South Side teams will live up to that reputation.

JANET HUGHES PATRICIA MORRIS ANN SIMONSON Co-Captain ARLINE WESTERFiELO Co-Captain Besides the athletics that boys participate in. there arc many activities in which our girls are interested. One of these is cheerleading. These girls put in long hours of practice to perfect their cheers, and a lot more time in leading the cheers at the football and basketball games. They deserve a lot of credit and praise from the rest of us, for in them we have more evidence of the true South Side spirit. We of the Senior Class are especially proud of the Senior Girls who are cheerleaders. 41 SUSANNE CONKLIN BERNICE HOFFMAN VIRGINIA McBRIDE MARY ANN NAELON BARBARA PALLITTO PHYLLIS ROTHHOLTZ LOIS QUINN Co-Captain GRACE WOODRUFF Co-Captain 42 wisUe iA.------ One of the most thrilling sights that one can witness at a football game, besides the actual game, is watching the twirlers strut. These girls have given much time in preparation for the game in which they are seen. South Side can be very proud of those who always give their best. We gratefully acknowledge the services that they have performed for the school; and we also wish to congratulate the Senior members of this group. 9h tke Swim Our swimming team has numorously been called a bunch of drips. but those who called them drips' are all wet. The team has always gained for itself great honor; and South Side can point with great pride to this group of boys. They deserve recognition for the great efforts they have put forth. We. the Senior Class, are very happy to have some of our members on the South Side team. We also hope that in coming years. South Side can boast of a swimming team that equals the one with which the class of 51 has been associated. 4 i LOUIS NEBEL FRED MEANS SANFORD WEINGER ALLEN BERNSTEIN GEORGE DINNERMAN HILLEL WEINGOLD MAX RAUCHWARG Manager Assistant Manager MR. MOORE Adviser Fencing is a sport that doesn’t always command the attention it deserves, although South Side has the reputation of having a very fine team. It always ranks high among the teams in the state: and some of its members have won trophies proving their prowess. These boys put in long hard hours of practice to perfect thier form, again showing the true South Side spirit. i ® Setu ii THE OPERATING GJu j Gfue iatosi AiA iicuit Ope iatasi MISS KATHERINE F.

I, a ...........-- We. he graduating classes of South Side High School, residing in N ark and in the state of insanity, being of unsound mind, do make and declare this to be our LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT. FIRST, to the Freshmen we leave— Free passes to the auditorium (good only for assembly programs). Lockers, if you can open them. Paper, gum, broken pencils, and all the rest of the garbage in the desks (providing your desks have bottoms). G. O. cards for the next year, so that you can save 25c. SECOND, to the Sophomores we leave— The pleasure of selling elevator tickets to the Freshies that are foolish enough to buy them. Latin ponies, but don’t get caught with them. A quart of milk to celebrate getting out of the cradle. Alarm clocks that will get you up for your morning homerooms. THIRD, to the Juniors we leave— A sunny day for your class trip. Beautifully engraved desks. The memories of all our handsome boys and glamorous girls. The task of apple-polishing for one more year. FOURTH, to the Seniors we leave— All the shivers and shakes of Senior Day. All the answers to the senior exams, on the tops of the desks. A few old worn out Theses that might come in handy. The privilege of being considered the top grade in the school. FIFTH, to tho members of the faculty we bequeath— The wonderful peace and quiet of our absence. All of our good intentions. The promise of higher wages. To the janitors we leave the uninvited guests in the lockers. For the campus we leave a bag of grass seed and fertilizer. Lastly, to the school at large, we just LEAVE. In conclusion, we make and appoint Mr. Conovitz to be the executor of this, our LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT. We have hereunto subscribed our name and affixed our seal of the days of January 23 and June 21, 1951.

Now at last we are able to dose our four years here at South Side with the Golden Spike. For just as the railroads used the Golden Spike to commemorate the comoletion of a coast to coast railway; so do we use it to commemorate the end of our Sentimental Journey at South Side. At last we are able to call ourselves South Sidcrs; for it was a Dart of our lives before we came; it was a part of our lives while we were here, and it will be a part of our lives forever.
