Dke 1956 WAYNE HIGH SCHOOL, MOUNTAIN VIEW, N. J. Underclassmen 84-89 Foreword Administration. Faculty Seniors 12-83 Dedication Underclassmen.. Activities Sports Candids Advertisements. Credits On September 19, 1955 an Indian tribe marched sol v«own a yet untrod trail. The tom-toms beat wildly a —-moccasins of the maidens and braves left prints in the still fresh soil. A war whoop went up from the throats of the travelers as they reached the end of the path. The Wayne Indians were moving to a new reservation! In some parts of the incomplete tepee, bare foundations were still exposed. But the tribe was willing to wait for a few missing boughs and bearskins to be installed. Many moons passed before the reservation was completed. But the Indians had heap big fun watching the tepee grow. We, the seniors, were the chieftains of that tribe. It has been our pleasant assignment to initiate new activities and establish traditions. We arc proud of our new buildings and 'facilities. But we arc prouder still of the hard work and vision of the citizens of this township who had faith in our future and whose efforts and sacrifices made our new school possible. Although in the future we may study in many fine buildings, both old and new, we will always treasure our memories of Wayne High School Inspired by this thought, we have prepared this record of our tribal history. As we depart from the dying embers of the campfire we leave this volume to you — our parents, teachers, schoolmates and members, of the community. We hope that you will enjoy reading it and will preserve it talisman of the 3 COUNCIL OF WISE MEN DR. ANDREW C. RUOFF III President, Board of Education The Class of 1956 is very proud to be the first to be graduated from our new and wonderful school. This would not be possible without the efforts of our Board of Education. In order to improve our educational facilities these men and women have worked industriously and unselfishly. They have offered advice on many problems concerning the school program and student body. They have supervised the planning and building of a school of which we may be proud to be a part. The basic desire of the Board of Education is to give each student the best possible schooling. The superb construction of our new high school is ample proof that the Board is giving far more than lip-service to its intentions. Our school is equipped to meet the educational needs of every student. Because of the fine classrooms, laboratories, shops, library, gymnasium and auditorium, wc have had the advantages of a well-rounded program. We have been given the fundamental knowledge needed for every walk of life. We know, by this example, that the Board of Education will continue its efforts to provide for every child in Wayne Township an education which is not just adequate, but which is superior.

Noth-durft, Mr. W. R. Huntington III. 4 THE GREAT WHITE FATHER DR. KENNETH A. WOOLF Former Superintendent of Schools Dr. Woolf, former superintendent of our schools, has been more than just a name to us; he has been a personality. He has demonstrated his interest in both the students and the schools by his frequent visits to our classrooms and extracurricular activities. Dr. Woolf has given freely and unselfishly of his time and energy to organize a well-planned school system. The many new schools in our township today are a living testimonial to his accomplishments. We shall always remember Dr. Woolf for his ready smile and the sagacity with which he directed our school lives. We, the Class of 1956, wish to thank him for all that he has done for us. Although we shall miss him very much, we arc proud of his recent appointment and extend to him our best wishes for happiness and success in his new capacity as Hunterdon County Superintendent of Schools. 5 MR. JOHN VAN DYKEN Principal Several years ago Mr. Van Dyken, along with other foresighted citizens, recognized the overcrowded conditions which were to prevail in our school. At that time he began formulating mental blueprints for a new high school. He then submitted his ideas to the Board of Education and the community for their consideration and approval. A dream became a reality last fall when our chief led the tribe to the new tepee. Soon afterward, in view of Dr. Woolf's new position, Mr. Van Dyken was appointed Acting Superintendent of Schools. Because wc have had fewer occasions to chat with you this year, Mr. Van Dyken, we wish to take this opportunity to thank you for our beautiful new building. But most of all we wish to express our gratitude for the personal consideration you have given each member of our class. You have always made us feel that no matter how small was a problem, you could always find time in your already overcrowded day to see any student who wished to talk with you. This is truly what a principal should be. 6 MEDICINE MAN Mr. Packin is an excellent example of the self discipline he teaches. He believes everything is possible; this is reflected in his motto, Try.” He upholds fairness in work and play and he has strived to make our school one to be admired. We understand the difficulties which confront a vice-principal. It is not always an easy task to offer criticism or impose a punishment, but we arc aware that there is sometimes a need for this type of supervision. We are grateful to Mr. Packin for the fine principles he has upheld. We know that he is interested, above all, in preparing us to become responsible citizens. MR. BERNARD PACKIN Vice Principal INJUN GUIDE During our years at Wayne, Mrs. Benson has always received us with a friendly smile and a sincere word of advice. We have looked to her for solutions to our academic, vocational and social problems. She has been a sympathetic listener whose advice has been both encouraging and profitable. We wish to thank Mrs. Benson for the personal interest and help she has given. MRS. ELIZABETH BENSON Guidance Director LOUIS A. DOM IN A.B., M.S. Science 8 ROBERT H. ESCOTT B.S.

They paddled their canoes to the South Sea Heaven” of the Fiesta in Wood-Ridge. Among those smoking the peace-pipe at the guest table were Mr. and Mrs. John Van Dyken, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Henshall, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Klie, Miss Joan Carmen, Miss Lynn Wcntorf and Miss Lee Caporusso. Beverly Olsen was chosen Indian Princess, with Barbara Sanders and Marion Vivino as maidens-in-waiting. Each girl received a silver charm bearing the date of the prom. Later the tribe was entertained by Hiawatha Caporusso and Sitting-Bull Carmen who sang We're A Couple of Swells.” The Indians mamboed to the tom-toms of Chick Mahon's Orchestra and savored the South Sea delicacies of the Fiesta kitchen. As the first hint of dawn appeared in the East, the tribe slipped away to their waiting canoes and glided softly back to the reservation. Picture Without Words!

From that time on the reservation buzzed with activity. The staff will not soon forget the lunchtime sessions and evening meetings. The tribe will always recollect the many pleasant experiences associated with this compilation of the history of the Class of '56.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The 1955-1956 Honor Society has been a very busy organization. At the beginning of the year, they sold ice cream, Wayne High School bookcovers and pencils. With the profits from these activities, the treasury swelled and the Honor Society offered a $100 scholarship awarded for academic achievement and a gift for an industrial arts student. The society meets the third Wednesday night of each month at the homes of the members. Each of these meetings is preceded by an executive meeting at which the adviser, Miss Carmen, and the officers prepare the agenda for the coming meeting. The group went to New York to see a Broadway play in March, and was honored by the P.T.A. at the annual April dinner. The highlight of the year was the initiation ceremony, at which the new members were inducted and farewells said to the parting seniors. Row I, kneeling: H. Ulrich. L. Ellis, B. Lehmann, L.

During the summer of 1955 a group of students met with Mr. Maizcl to form an organization which would serve the students and the school. This group was named the Spark. Hie first service of this organization was performed on opening day at school. The members presented a program in the auditorium to acquaint students with the new building. They guided lost students (and teachers!) to their classes. This guide system is now a permanent function of the Spark, which is responsible for keeping order in the halls during passing of classes and for giving visitors a tour of our new school. Other purposes of the Spark are to publicize all activities of Wavne High, serve as host to the foreign students and promote good school citizenship.

THE BAND This year our concert and marching bands were bigger and better than ever. Under the expert leadership of Mr. Escott, our sixty-one piece marching band played at all the football games and appeared at the HcralJ-Ncwi Band Festival in Clifton for the third successive year. After the football season ended, preparation began for the Christmas Concert. Among the band’s engagements this year were performances at a P.T.A. meeting at the Alps Road School, the high school dedication program, an exchange concert with Pompton Lakes High School, the Spring Concert and many assembly programs. This year the Music Department was proud to have Elaine Boyd and Bob Zeidler in the Region I of the All-State Band. Bob also played with the All-State Orchestra for the third year. A new addition to Wayne’s musical activities this year was participation in the Lakeland Conference Band which gave its concert in March. The best musicians from each of the five member schools play in this band. Wayne was represented by fifteen members. One of them, Arlyn Jacobus, did an excellent job with his trumpet solos. Bob Zeidlcr, who is president of the band, is also the student conductor. He is assisted by Arlyn Jacobus, vice president, who sers'es as assistant student conductor. The sergeants arc Bill Maczko, Mike Grossi and Frank Cimmino; corporals, George Karamanol, Doug Durgin, Janet Watts and Eileen Van Duync. Barbara Fuliard and Pam Luks arc the band librarians.

Walking the last mile! CHEERLEADERS When the warriors are whooping it up on the warpath, they can always be sure that, win or lose, they have the backing of Waynes cheerleaders. With all their pep and enthusiasm, they have sparked school spirit to a new high. During both football and basketball seasons you can find Wayne’s cheerleaders cither practicing, or cheering the team on in the biggest, best, and loudest way they know. The cheerleaders' ultimate goal is to improve the school spirit in Wayne and to let the team know that their school and their cheerleaders are always behind them.

At the beginning of Coach A Herman’s second season at the helm, the Indians faced a rugged slate with a light and inexperienced squad of twenty-four players. From the beginning of the season, everyone on the squad learned to sacrifice. The team was plagued with injuries and was dealt crucial blows in vital positions. This season's record of 1 - 6 - 1 was not our best, but the players emerged from it a little older and a little better equipped to face the world. 118 The Coaches and Co-Captains Allcrman, Mullcrt, Ullman, Kelin.

BASKETBALL Last November, Coach Gifford began to put his team through their practice paces. With six seniors returning — four of them starting veterans — the Indians were a pre-season choice in the Lakeland Conference. The powerful Senior Five, Bill Cunningham, John Crosby, George Aug, Ed Mazurkie-wicz and Dave Marshall received able assistance from Pete Locwrigkeit, Rollie Weinmann, Russ Reidy and Jim Klein. The boys lived up to earlier predictions with twelve wins and five losses. They went on to win the Conference with a record of 6 - 2. The Championship was a real feather in the cap of infant member Wayne. The Indians also added the Conference Jamboree rftle to their laurels, and later represented our school in the State Tournament. Hats off to the team and Coach Gifford — they really did a fine job this year! 121 Row 1: Coach Marusyn, E. Mazurkiewicz, T. Guinan, J. DiNapoli, D. Marshall, D. Hcllcrman, R. Turner. Row 2: E.

Under Coach Marusyn, a young Indian baseball squad was faced with a major job of rebuilding as the ’55 season opened. There were only three seniors in the starting line-up. The outfield was composed of Seniors Tom Guinan, Les Armour, Art Erb, and Junior Ed Mazurkiewicz. An infield composed completely of juniors—Joe Woolley, Dave Marshall, George Aug and Bill Cunningham—was held down because of lack of experience. Sophomore Jack Di Napoli handled the catching as- signments with Ed Ruzicka, Les Armour, Bill Cunningham, Barry Hanratty and Bill Valentine doing the pitching. A few of the highlights of the season were Tom Guinan's batting average of .428 and Ed Ruzicka’s one hit performance against Morris Hills Regional (State Champs). Tom Guinan and Ed Ruzicka were selected for the Lakeland Conference first team; George Aug, Jack Di Napoli and Les Armour were chosen for the Conference second team.

PAUL MULLERT TRACK The ’55 season was the best yet for Wayne’s track squad. Under Coach Ross's leadership the team posted a winning record of 6-3. The Indian squad was fast and powerful. Paul Mullcrt, A1 Smith, Tom Bowman, and Frank Venables provided the spark in the short sprints and hurdles, while the strong - winded Phil Keller was the big point maker in the distance events. Mullert, Smith, Venables, Bowman and Jack Hagmann led Wayne in the broad and high jumps with Roy Opsahl and Barry Bush providing the push in the pole vault. Bob Sorge was the big man in the weight events, taking all the Indians' first places in the shot put, discus, and javelin contests. JACK HAGMANN 124 TOM BOWMAN BOB SORGE Bowling Under the leadership of Coach Mar-usyn, Wayne bowlers went all the way in the North Jersey Interscholastic Bowling League only to lose out in a playoff match with Bloomfield. The team was composed of Bill Valentine, Warren Hinchman, Matt Hazekamp, Dick Wilborg, Don Hcllerman, Jack Einreinhof, Bill Berry, Bill Harms and Richard Quinn. Warren Hinchman won the high individual average title with a steady bowling average of 184. Row I: R. Quinn, W. Harms. W. Hinchman, J. Einreinhof. Rou 2: M. Hazc-kamp. Coach Marusyn, Vir. Berry.

Miss Wentorf is the adviser of this organization. Each girl is a member of either the Blue or the White Team. Every year members of these teams compete against each other in the annual G. A. A. Show. The object is to sec which team can win the most divisions. The competitions in the past have been in marching, tumbling, folk dancing, modern dancing and tap dancing. This year folk dancing was eliminated because it could not be correlated with the show's theme— A Circus.” Instead, cheerleading was added to the program. Another new feature was apparatus work. The girls who performed on the parallel bars and flying rings were selected for their demonstration ability rather than on a competitive basis. Points arc given for participation in afterschool sports as well as the G. A. A. Show. These points are accumulated by the individual each year. G. A. A. awards are presented at the end of the year. Awards are also presented by the New Jersey State Athletic Association for Girls to those who have accumulated seventy or more points per year. Ciris’ Bowling Team: L. Harrington, B. Bullard, S.
