i i I Ut WABK,N.Jo ? oxcoumcC Our show at last has had its close. The spotlight's dimmed; The spangles packed away; But every tired trouper knows That this is not the end. The stars that shone in our small tent These four long years, Our season's run, Will grace a larger firmament, For this is not the end. We joined the troupes, were shown the ropes, Told how and when And what to do; And now our hearts are filled with hopes That this is not the end. This book's a record of our past Accompl ishments. Of hopes and dreams and plans, Unfinished history of our class, For this is not the end. Who knows what paths each one shall take, What detours come On life's side-streets? The rugged road its toll will take; But this is not the end. We take our places now among The greater show Of life adult; And each of us will sing this song: The best is yet to come. LUCY PRINZ 2 It is with deep affection and gratitude that the Class of January 1949 dedicates its Legend to Miss Virginia Beard. This is but a token of our appreciation for her most helpful guidance which she so unsparingly bestowed upon us as our class adviser and lasting friend. To the Members of the Class of January 1949: Epictetus, an old Greek philosopher, once said: Only the educated are free. Knowledge not only makes you free, however; it has many other uses. It protects you against error and wrong ideas; it enables you to move forward in our dangerous world with greater confidence; it teaches you how to discover yourself and to get along with yourself; it provides you with occupations for your leisure; it gives you the opportunity to make friends and to store up memories. I hope that these memories will in general be pleasant ones. We have sincerely tried to make your stay here at Weequahic a happy one and to do all we possibly could for you. I extend to you my very best wishes for a fortunate future. Ifho L ta t e ? iC6dty COMMERCIAL AND SECRETARIAL DEPARTMENT JOHN R. BOYLE. Chairman ELIZABETH BAKER ALICE F. COBEY B.

The Sagamores, the Councils, and our graduation rings, The football team so gallant, the cheers we knew so well; The toll of liberation, our own beloved bell. Our famous lunchroom, its culinary art. The memory selections that we had to learn by heart, Our aromatic chem lab, the Indian family tree. Our O. B A. elections, and our dear, sweet faculty. Our senior year so thrilling—the big things and the small. The Calumet, our peace pipe, and our score in basketball; A day, that's known as Torch day, the Hop and all its fun, Our prom so well remembered, and a task we left well done. And Alma Mater—although we bid farewell These mem'ries will be with us, for in our hearts they dwell. We never will forget you; to us you'll always be Our one great inspiration—our lasting memory.

(?Ca4A fltuteuvuf, J949 DEING of sound mind, but tired body, and having completed four years of education at Weequahic High School, we, the Graduating Class of January, 1949, after due consideration, leave the following to our beneficiaries: TO THE CLASS OF JUNE 1949, we leave a much battered torch, which we hope will be used to light their way to school early in the morning. TO THE JUNIOR CLASS, we leave the thrill of seeing their first A” assem- bly, with the realization that it is no different from the B , save for the dignity and superior manners of the senior group. TO THE SOPHOMORES, we leave all our elevator and swimming pool passes, with the hope that they have a good business season next year. TO THE FRESHMEN, we leave all our Latin ponies, which we hope will get them out of the Annex. TO MR. CARL HUNKINS, we bequeath all our broken test tubes, copied ex- periments, and lost locker keys. TO MISS MARION WYCKOFF, we leave ny extra copies of The Legend which happen to be lying around. TO OUR HOMEROOM TEACHERS, we leave a year's supply of aspirin, the need of which they have often expressed to us. TO THE JANITORIAL STAFF, we leave a new Electrolux, with our thanks for their welcomed philosophy. TO MR. MAX J. HERZBERG AND MISS VIRGINIA BEARD, we leave sincere appreciation for their welcomed guidance as they followed us through the many rings under the big top to the center attraction, our graduation.

Barbara Kafka (Ae @Cci4A oj fleutuany yC S we entered the Weequahic High School Annex in January, 1945, we gazed with awe upon the lA's, dreaming that one day we would assume the pomp and dignity that accompanied that inspiring title. We were neither the last class to leave school at 1 :50 if we had eighth period study, nor were we the last class to take vocational guidance as a minor; but we were the last class to see OBA movies after school; we did get out of school early when V-E day was announced; and we entered a 1 - A class along with the atomic bomb. We arrived at the main building in time to see many of our teachers re- turn from one war, only to wage another with us. We had our first taste of class elections in our junior year, never thinking that Arthur Schechner was secretly plotting to be president of the class from the junior year on; and as Juniors and Seniors, we saw many of our class rank high in the OBA elections, with Norman Schantz being elected first to the Council, and then to its presidency. In our Senior year, music was introduced to the lunch room; and in our Senior year, many of us begged for its repeal. In our last term at Weequahic, a delegation met President Truman at the height of his campaign; OBA can- didates made campaign speeches in school assemblies; and the Newark Schools' Radio Station, WBGO, was put into action. Also in our senior year we were delighted by the gala occasion of the 4B-4A Hop Then followed the Prom. King Neptune's attendants bedecked our gymnasium in full dress, and we were swept away amidst mermaids, treasure, and fish Vice president, Leonard Lowengrub, ably directed the entire affair and Zelig Galoff was our master of ceremonies. We left no marks on the school's history, save for the marks on the school itself, but we will be the first class to walk out of a newly painted building and past a new stadium on our way to Camp Dix. It is true, our class history is one that Professor Muzzey would never include in his latest volume on America's social development, but we look back at our days in Weequahic as a significant part of our lives and we know that future years will bring us pleasant memories. 52 DAVID SCHLOSSER 4 4 fruteti cutU O.

We have placed members on all-city, all-county, and even all-state teams. Our boys have done well in the state track, cross-country, and fencing tournaments. The fortune teller traveling with this circus can see naught but success for Weequahic teams of the future Our football squad, which for years had slumbered peacefully in the shadow of our basketball team, suddenly awoke with a bang, while most of us were in our freshman year. The team finished third in the city league, losing only to Barringer and East Side. For the past three years, the first string all- city fullback has held the same position on the Weequahic eleven. Our class has contributed many students to these teams, placing such men as Len Alpert, Jack Usdin, Stanley Daitch, Jack Birnholz, Arthur Goldsmith, Malcolm Bohrod, and Adam Husar in important positions. Although the football squad has finally grown some hair on its chest, it was the basketball team which set an example for Weequahic teams of the future to follow. The five won the city championship twice and has been invited to the state tourney for the past four years. The team has lost only seven games in two seasons We have placed six men on the last two ten-man squads des- ignated as all-city by the Newark News Representing our class on these teams were Len Kaplan, Len Karp, Len Lowengrub, Len Alpert, Sandy Klein, and Alvin Simon. Next to basketball, track was our most successful sport. The track team has won two city championships and placed winners in the state meet. The cross-country squad, while acquiring one city championship, finished high in the state meet. Len Alpert, Alvin Simon, Stanley Daitch, Jack Usdin, Steve Kubichek, and Howard Moshinsky have won letters in these two sports. Our baseball team was invited to the Greater Newark Tourney two years ago and also placed men on all-city squads. Forty-niners on this squad were Len Lowengrub, Bernie Busch, and Alvin Simon. The fencing team which was started only last year, turned in an extremely fine record. Not only did it turn out one of the finest individual fencers in the state in our own Bob Taetszch, but finished third in the state meet, beaten only by Barringer and Bloomfield. Truly, we forty-niners have discovered that there is much gold in them thar boys . We know that they will shine when performing for the colleges of their choice. 60 STEVE KUBlCHEK Adam Hutir In '46 and '47 Adam was the starting end opposite Lcn Alpcrt. Stanley Daitch Stan made two letters as a regular tacklp on the eleven. Leonard Alpcrt Len, who has won seven letters at Weequahic, topped a brilliant athletic career by captaining the football team during his senior year Malcolm Bohrod A regular end this season. Mai showed fighting spirit which made him a force to be reckoned with on the gridiron. Jack Usdin Jack made two letters at was co-captain of the footl Jack Birnholx Arthur Goldsmith As a guard, Jack won his letter in football while a senior. A pinnacle of strength on offense and defense. Art was a first-string tackle on this year's football team Leonard Lowengrub A fast and fighting guard, Len was a standout on our 47-' t8 city-chiampionship team. Alvin Simon For three years, Al starred on the team as a high-scoring forward. bvondra rvjpun Len was such a fine basketball playe that he was chosen for the first-strmj all-city team. Leonard Alport Len played creditably and served the team well for his letter. Sandford Klein Sandy played fine ball off the boards and was a stalwart on last year's ball club. Leonard Karp Len. a deadly set eye. was a leader on last year's team 63 ETTERMEN, who will be missing from the team after graduation, are Bernie Busch, Len Lowengrub, and Al Simon. Though few in numbers these boys formed the core of last year's team. Bernie was our leading pitcher last season. When not pitching, he was often seen cavorting on the left side of the infield. Al was an all-city outfielder who hit a long ball and Len was our regular second baseman and a real speed merchant. QUR track squad will lose many of its capable men through graduation this year. Among these are Len Alpert, Stan Daitch, Jack Usdin, and Al Simon. Alpert was our leading man with the javelin and a fine hurdler as well. Daitch was a letter winner with the shot, and Usdin was an experienced pole-vaulter. Simon, the only track man among them, was our leading half-miler two years ago. The cross country squad, however, loses only two letter winners. They are Howie Moshinsky and Steve Kubichek. Howie was captain of this year's team and Steve has been on the squad for four years. 64 J“HE Class of January '49 is well represented by its girl gym letter winners. There are very few girls with a thousand points. We know that those who have that many points have really worked hard for them. Many are the balls they have handled; many are the arrows they have shot in such gym groups as the volley ball and archery clubs. They have had almost perfect attendance in school. They have been prepared for gym at all times and they have earned high marks in gym. The girls who have met all these qualifications are Carole Gerber, Ruth Einhorn, Betty Jackson, Marie Morenzi, Frances Goldberg, Maxine Kemper, Wilmetann Symes, and Gloria Goldberg, and not photo- graphed above, Helen Laing. 65 Editorial Board Rose Dorfman Lillian Morgenstein Editor-in-chief Dave Schlosser Advisers: Marion M.

M «NNE KLtlN [Foreword “| HE foremost expression of man is music. Unlike lan- guages, its appeal is not limited; music is the uni- versal language. Fundamental in music, is the use of harmony; and just as harmony is essential to music, so it is the basic need among nations today. Music is within reach of all of us. Through its medium, the lives of peo- ple all over the world are enriched. A composer in one country may create a new symphony for appreciation by the entire world; so individuals must conceive ideas to cultivate international harmony. This ideal has been uppermost in our thoughts dur- ing our four years at Weequahic High School. As we read this Legend, let us try to think of it as a mirror of our accomplishments and friendships, a record of our mem- ories, as unforgettable as the songs we love. In the fu- ture, as in the past, we shall continue to strive for the common goal we must achieve—harmony. MAXINE SKWIRSKY MRS. DINA A. HIRSCH ® e d i c a t i o n the Class of June, 1949, wish to express our sincere gratitude for the counsel and understanding that Mrs. Hirsch has so cheerfully given to us. With fondest appreciation of her coopera- tion as class adviser, we are proud to dedicate our Legend to Mrs. Dina A. Hirsch. 3 Principal’s message TO MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF JUNE, 1949 In accordance with the general theme of this yearbook, I'd like to extend to you the wish that your lives may all be like a pleasant melody, and that you may always live in harmony with your friends and neighbors and (most of all) with yourselves. This is a large class, and out of its ranks should spring talents and abilities of many sorts—doctors, lawyers, and teachers; perhaps a clergyman or two; a mayor and two or three authors, a couple of musicians, a sculptor, numerous good cooks, and, I hope sincerely, 315 first-rate citizens. My best wishes for success and happiness to you all! 7w As you go forward to take your places in the realm of business or in other institutions of learning, I wish for each of you a full measure of joy and contentment, courage to be ever true to yourselves and to meet difficulties un- falteringly, and a rich abundance of God's blessings.

SALTMAN y- •- medley of memories As we turn these pages over, we'll remember High School days And the music which recalls them in so many different ways; How the classes marched to Assembly to the beat the orchestra set, And the songs that cheered our team at those games we can't forget. Remember the Glee Club carols, how they echoed through the halls, And the fun at the 3B Square Dance when we gamboled to the calls? How our voices in the lunchroom drowned the music overhead, And the fond farewells on Torch Day which left so much unsaid? Remember the hours of dancing at the Hop we liked so well, And the strains of music Prom Night, which cast their magic spell? Remember the waiting in caps and gowns on Graduation Day And how our pulses quickened as we heard that music play? The years will find us parted, but wherever we may be, A bar of music, a snatch of song, will bring a memory. 10 JOYCE HALPERN STEPHANIE SHAFER (Slass officers DON MARSHALL President 12 Athan Anest 197 Clinton Place I'd rather laugh, a bright-eyed boy, than reign, a grey-beard King.

Serenity reigns everywhere. The furious battle of the world is over and the Age of the Atom has descended upon us. ACT I, SCENE I A brilliant red building, built by Lord Hawthorne, rises in center stage. The chorus and ballet within are revealed to the audience. Their proud, puffed chests are topped by bewildered faces. Suddenly a discord sounds' One of the king's royal subjects has been assaulted and jailed in the black locker of the gym. A search is made. Out of the chaos, a victorious aria is heard. Our hero, the Knight of Forty-nine, has found the gym! SCENE II As the curtain rises, we hear a triumphant refrain, revealing that the chorus now has the power that is vested in the upper frosh. As our hero dramatically points at an up-going 1 B on a down-going stairway, a courtier appears, heralding the news of the three-day battle of water pistols that has been raging. But our hero soon puts an end to the battle which had spread to the castle. Alas, he is merely to taste of the tan- talizing fruits of power, for soon he is to journey to the Celestial Palace on the Hill. ACT II, SCENE I Again the hero is on the brink of a new adventure. A golden door parts. It is then that the villain appears, venom in his eyes, his manful chest hidden behind a sagamore badge. He approaches, hand extended. His resounding voice is lowered as he attempts to woo the heroine with an elevator pass. SCENE II Five months of confusion have passed. Our hero is ill, for he has tasted of the nectar, brewed by the wizard. Sir Syd. The chorus brightens his dim state of mind by singing of the promise of 3B. ACT III, SCENE I A crowd is gathered in the royal ballroom. A courtier announces the new king, Levin by birth. Princess Bobbi is his adviser. Lady Elinor and Madame Leah are Chancellors of the Secretariat and the Exchequer. With the coming of the new ruler, the palace has been decorated in the placid pastels. A simple square dance is being held in the ballroom. An announcement is made of a performance of “Trial by Jury which is to be given there in tribute to the new king. 46 an operetta SCENE II Shocking news has overwhelmed the crowd. Lady Phyllis, the fifth cousin of her predecessor, has formed an alliance with Krafchick and taken over the Secretariat and the Exchequer. The latest proclamation is read. There is to be an arena built, which is to grace the Celestial Palace on the Hill. The chorus joins in, and the sound of Coke bottles is heard as it sings a drinking song to the new stadium. ACT IV, SCENE I The king has abdicated: Lord Marshall has ascended to the throne. Sir Louis has become his adviser. The two Ladies Miller have fought and the spoils have gone to Lady Bernice. A theater dance is to be held in commemoration of the victory. The Lords of 4A are to be invited by their underlings. A crowd is seen gathered around the magicians, who have come from the Land of General Electric. The foreigners are to display their mystic powers in the king's royal entertainment room. The chorus sings a song to welcome them. The song of the chorus is interrupted. All is hushed, for the Day of the Torch has come. A solemn hymn is sung as the noble ceremony proceeds. In the background, a glimpse of the arena in its awe-filling completion is seen. SCENE II Preparations are being made for the great ball. The Day of the Grand Commencement is nearing. In the king's dining room, a music- making machine has been installed. The hero and heroine enter and sing a soft aria as they prepare to bid good-by to their Celestial Palace on the Hill. For the first time, their true feelings are revealed. Tear- stained faces are lowered. A prayer of hope is sung as the curtain des- cends. EPILOGUE The stage is darkened as a lone player appears. He is the royal sage, Duke Fisch. Soft music is heard and he speaks. This story is as yet unfinished, but this episode is closed in hope that the next act may be filled with as many smiles as were the first four. The discords, as well as the harmony, form only the prelude to the truly great performance, in which each is a hero or a heroine in his own right.

Requisite to attainment of this honor, are extra-curricular activities as well as as a high standing in academic courses. Many students strive to attain this medal through participation in clubs, service activities, and various teams. Several of the school's special services function through student man- agement. To help make our assemblies successful, we have our stage crew. The use of visual aids in instruction would be impossible without the projec- tion staff. A neat and orderly account of the borrowing and returning of books is the job of the library staff. Equally helpful, the banking staff has done a great deal to encourage students to become zealous savers. Finally, one of the most valuable of the service clubs is the ushering staff, without which no one would be able to find his seat at evening events. We also have our graceful and animated twirling battalion, which looks well not only on a football field but also in music festivals and at parades. These twirlers have extended their duties to teaching grammar school girls their routines. The Audubon Club, affiliated with the National Society, has done a great many interesting things, including naturalist activities, such as hiking to Weequahic Park, taking trips to the Museum of Natural History, and making charts with each day of the month for every student to fill in with the type of bird he saw that day. The science clubs are very helpful in aiding the students to think and to appreciate future scientific developments. In addition, we have our Latin and Mathematics teams sent to New York University each year to compete with students from all over the country for the championship cups. They can be kept by the team's placing first, three times. The Mathematics team has won the cup twice and needs only one more victory. Our language clubs have not been idle either. Both the French and Ger- man Clubs have displayed their mastery of the respective languages by pre- senting skits for assembly programs, and the latter has even broadcast over the Newark Board of Education station, WBGO. As for culture, who could ask for more than the newly initiated Hebrew Culture Club, which teaches Hebrew dances, songs, and customs, and pre- sents interesting films and speakers; the Dramatic Club, which recently pre- sented an excellent play, Eugene O'Neill's lie ; and the Contemporary Club, designed to give students a chance to voice their opinions on recent problems in the form of debates and forums. Last, but not least, we have our creative clubs in writing as well as art, which help the students to develop their creative skill. All of the clubs are run smoothly and harmoniously, and offer the student an opportunity to en- hance his enjoyment of many hobbies and interests. 66 PROM COMMITTEE BANKERS AND AUDITORS LEGEND STAFF CALUMET STAFF 4A COUNCIL AND 0.

ELIZABETH CUTTRISS Chalk it up to experience. 73 ©lass sport history INCE the entrance of the Class of June 1949, we have contributed many valuable and pro- ficient players to the various school teams. During this period, Weequahic inaugurated the two sports of fencing and swimming and put out an all-city championship basketball team, amassing impressive records in all three sports. We also placed a number of men on the foot- ball, baseball, cross country, and track varsity teams, who were responsible for many of the wins in these fields. In 1948 the city league basketball crown was decisively won by a victorious Weequahic five. Showing extraordinary speed, exceptional skill, and excellent coordination, the team piled up victory after victory to finish to the tune of 17 wins and 2 defeats. Charley Lubet- kin's speed and fancy ball-handling coupled with Ken Klein's deadly eye were responsible for many wins. In addition to these two lettermen. Jay Lasker and Sandy Saunders were capable hoopsters who through their basketball know-how made many victories possible. The football team had two difficult seasons in '48 and '49 but was a threat to all opposi- tion and showed a drive, stamina, and capacity for punishment which very often put fear in the eyes of its adversaries. It was largely due to Sandy Saunders and Bob Weisman that the team possessed the fighting spirit which made it formidable to all foes. Sandy, playing full- back, was a bulwark of strength on both the defensive and offensive play. Rapid Robert provided the necessary speed to bring the ball deep into enemy territory. Fred Blonder, Herman Rothman, and Harold Schofel also performed very capably on the gridiron. The final curtain fell to find a weary but spirited eleven with a record of 1 win and 6 losses. Our class also placed some very fine boys on the track team, which held its own in inter-state competition. Charley Lubetkin, Sam Marx, Izzy Slimowitz, and Louie Crescenzi were four of the mainstays on the team. The cross country squad put out very good corps in the past three seasons and showed heavy pluralities in the win column. Herbert Bernstein was the only man we placed on this team, but Herb's speed and endurance were qualities that made up for our lack of abundant entries. The baseball team has placed men on the all city squad in 1947 and is unsurpassed for its fine sportsmanship and sports skill. Sandy Saunders and Jay Lasker are two members of the diamond-squad who played steady defensive ball and were threats to opposing mound corps. Two embryonic sports in Weequahic are fencing and swimming. The fencing team was the most successful and short-lived team in Weequahic history. In its only season it had 10 wins and 1 defeat, and placed third in the state tournament. Three of our boys on this squad were Don Ridenour, Earle Ross, and Joe Fox. The record of 8 wins and 2 losses obtained dur- ing competition for the mythical title of '48 which the swimming team compiled is as equally impressive as that of the fencing team. Four mermen from our class are Jack Fisch, Arthur Carr, Alan Julian, and Walter Alina. These boys comprised the core of the team and were continually splashing in ahead of the opposition to carry away many meets. Although we rapidly approach the grand finale of our high school career, we have com- plete confidence that these boys who have contributed so valuably in the past shall continue to perform well in the colleges of their choice. 74 basketball Ken Klein Tudy Lubetkin Jay Lasker Sandy Saunders fencing Joe Fox Donald Ridenour Earle Ross Sandy Saunders Bob Wcsman Herman Rothman Harold Schofcl gOXING, the manly art of self defense, has made its debut at Weequahic within the past few years. Tournaments, in which anyone with the proper weight and health requirements could enter, have been held in our gym, and with fists flying and much urging on the part of the spectators, they have provided both entertainment for the fans and experience for the participants. Those boys who were fortunate enough to emerge victorious from their battles received a boxing W for their efforts. pWO baseball lettermen who will be missing from the line-up next season are Sandy Saunders and Jay Lasker. Both these boys have played capably on the diamond and have contributed valuably to Coach Schneider's squad. When Sandy is not stand- ing formidably at the plate, harassing the opposing mound corps, he can be found prancing around at center field. Jay's position is at the mound, and he also possesses ability as a batter. We can ex- pect to see these boys playing college ball in the not too distant future.

The won and lost record of 8 victories and 2 defeats was a definite improvement over last year's record. Our natators took second place in the dual meets with other Newark schools and second place in the all-important city contest. Both the student body and Coach Skippy Stein can certainly be proud of the team's performances this year, and we can also look forward to future seasons of equal success. THLETICALLY-MINDED girls who have earned W's for meritorious sport work are Frances Berg, Judith Blumenfeld, Melicent Brams, Jo Doris, Sydelle Feinseth, Elsie Flagg, Rhoda Fox, Judith Goldstein, Meryl Gordon, Bobbi Grubman, Harriet Henick, Lillian Manteli, Elinor Miller, Barbara Morgenstein, Lois Newman, Adele Plotkin, Beverly Rappaport, and Gilda Resnick. Two of these disciples of Diana who will also receive pins are Lois Newman and Lillian Manteli. In order to merit a W or a pin, 1,000 or 1,500 points are required respectively. Points are earned in the gym class itself for perfect attendance, leadership, initiative, and good classwork. Others may be obtained by belong- ing to the various gym clubs after school, some of which are volley-ball, bas- ketball, softball, badminton, archery, and soccer. This program promotes good leadership, sportsmanship, and health. It also helps to bring about coopera- tion in group participation. We can certainly be proud of these girls, for not only have they done well athletically but also they have kept up a good scholastic rating. 79 EDITORIAL BOARD Lloyde S.
