And their minutes buried all Under the down-trodden pall Of the leaves of many years— So it isl yet let us sing Honor to the old bow-string! Honor to the bugle horn! Honor to the woods unshorn! Honor to the Lincoln green! Honor to tight little John, And the horse he rode uponl Honor to bold Robin Hood, Sleeping in the underwood! —Keats. Page Ph e FOREWORD THREE years have pleasantly and quickly passed since we, the class of 1934, first entered West Orange High School in September, 1931. Each day, filled with its busy activity, has had its new joys, its new experiences, its pleasant memories. It is with deep regret that we find that we must now leave our Alma Mater, our teachers, and our classmates. And as we say farewell , we find it difficult to express our deep appreciation and sincere thanks to the principal and the teachers for their patient and unselfish as- sistance, rendered during this difficult, although happy, span of our youth. In memory of the pleasant years, spent in West Orange High School, we, therefore, publish the 1934 West-O-Ranger as a permanent record of the class of 1934 and its activities. This year, in honor of the 80th Anniversary of the birth of that famous artist and literary friend of children, Howard Pyle, the staff of the West-O- Ranger has chosen Robin Hood, one of Pyle's favorite subjects, as the theme for their 1934 yearbook. Although the legends of Robin Hood have been retold many times, it is the shrewd artist Howard Pyle, who alone can carry one into the cool, green depths of Sherwood Forest, there to smell the smoke of campfires, to taste the scorched venison, to hear the twang of the long bow, and to watch the grey goose shaft as it cleaves the glistening, willow wand or brings down one of the king's proud buck. Only Howard Pyle could have created so great an interest in and love for the prince of outlaws, Robin Hood, whose character exemplifies ideals that have sent people to enlighten the dark places of this world and to render an impartial justice and a freer life to the downtrodden. In the compiling of this book, we have striven to produce an annual that will bring joy and lasting memories to all of you in after years; and if in some distant tomorrow, its pages recall a moment of gay comradeship, the smiling faces of absent friends, or the quiet satisfaction of work well done, it will not have been created in vain. And may you— • When you are old and grey and full of sleep, And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream— —Yeats. ROBERT IDEN, Editor-in-Chief of 1934 West-O-Ranger .

His leaps are all uncertain, And his eyes are scared and wild; But he pauses for a moment Like a 'wildered, timid child, Twisting, tugging mighty antlers, In a reckless, aimless sway, To unloose them from the bough That is a barrier to his way. Then straight off again he thrashes Through the tangled forest maze. Like a lost buck in a forest, Madly seeking for the light, Is my soul, tense and o'erburdened, Twisting, striving through the night. Page Eight To Mr. Solomon C. Strong, our superintendent, we, the Class of '34, respectfully dedicate the 1934 West-O-Ranger . His words of advice and com- mendation, rich through thought and conciseness, will stay with us always and be like guide posts on the road of life. We thank him for all the joys and comforts which his unseen hand has dealt out to us so bountifully. He, indeed, possesses the prime qualities which Wordsworth attributes to The Happy Warrior ; for he is Wise, steadfast in the strength of God, and true. —. +ra a m mm SOLOMON C.

Hope, tinged with black despair or rose delight— Hard press'd within my eager heart, I hold it tight. Keen stones may bruise my feet; Thorns, tear my flesh as on I plod, Shattering a precious thing should I lose my hold or barter it for easy Judas' gold. Oh, God, I pray to say when I am old: The dream is mine. r SENIOR CLASS DURING the three years the Class of '34 has been at West Orange High School the following members have acted as class officers: Sophomore Year: EZRA ROSENBAUM ......................................President EDWARD KENNEDY .................................Vice-President DELORES SCHNEIDER ...................................Secretary THELMA DOWD .........................................Treasurer Junior Year: HARRIET BOUTON .

Faculty Adviser THE JUNIOR CLASS THE Junior Class, erstwhile inactive sophomores, has this year established itself as a lively and talented group. Scholastically the class ranks high; for it has contributed to the high honor list eight students: Henry Clochessy 93.510; Josette Smith 93.333; Agnes McGuirk 91.538; Mildred Heintz 91.363; Jean Wells 91.122; Lucille Mooney 91; Ruth Anderson 90; and Shirley Sheldon 90. There are also twelve others in the class who have an average above 85 per cent. Three of the nine mem- bers of the assembly council are juniors, namely, Ellen Good, Jean Persons, and Donald Woodford. The juniors have also been well represented in the debating, the social, and the athletic field.

The class, which is a large one, found many of its members, who had come from Edison and Gaston Street Junior High Schools, strangers to each other. However, by the end of the first term, they had become sufficiently acquainted with each other to elect their officers. The scholastic standing of the Sophomore Class is high. Jerry Stamler had an average of 94.523; Tacie Cruthers, 93.222; and Samuel Williams, 90.106, for the first semester; and twenty-six other students had an average above 85. In the second half of the year, Charmion McGuirk, Eileen Terwilliger, John Howell, John Billings, Joyce Doty, Jane Ramsden, Ray Johnson, and Morris Fruman presented in assembly the usual Sophomore Intra-class De- bate. The Sophomore Class also contributed three men—David Carmeli, Frank Sheehan, and Joseph Lavoritano to the varsity football team; and one man, Raymond Slapp, to the varsity basketball team. In view of these facts the school feels that the Class of '36 will be a most successful class. DOUGLAS CUNNINGHAM. President DOUGLAS ENTWISTLE. Vice-President EARL QUINN. Secretary GILBERT GREISE.

Thirty members of this class have continued their education in various institutions of learning; seventeen are holding office positions; ten are matriculated in nursing schools; and ten have store positions. Others have gone into trade and industry or to schools of trade, and one is following agrarian pursuits. Another is general aide to Mr. Butterfield. Though news of comparatively few of the college students has come to us, we do know that Fred Weihe beside being on the Dean's list is already prominent in debating, and Bryant Griffin has made the fencing team at Brothers College. Fourteen of last year's graduates returned to West Orange High School this fall to complete extra courses in order to prepare for entrance to college next year. These are: James Brown, Marie Corsa, William Dowler, Raymond Fahey, Henry Holste, Anna Lauterbach, Patricia McGuirk, Marie Mulvey, Martha Ohsie, Robert Phinney, Ruth Pring, Sidney Schiffman, Stella Soloway, and Leonard Tinkham. Page Sixty-one SECURITY Harbors there are—deep, blue with lazy tide, Smiling, wind-sheltered, and horizon-free— Haven where tired, white-pinioned gulls may glide, Nor fly again above a lashing sea. Harbors there are, uncanny, still, and white, Where water witches call and toss their hair; Where dark waves beat and break in jewelled light, And green sea serpents keep a secret lair. There are calm, land-locked harbors, sanctified With ancient peace and sheltered hulls of ships; Where evening dreams and lotus sleep abide, And sluggish water glides and softly slips. Why must I, knowing tranquil harbors best, Yet long for winds that can not give me rest? HISTORY 1934 I; Remembrance only makes the footsteps last, When winged time, which fixed the prints, is past. —BEAUMONT, A NEW day was dawning in the merry springtime, that time of the year when forests are green, when sweet birds sing, and when all life seems gay. Along a narrow path in Sherwood Forest, there traveled a gorgeously clad figure whose manner and air dubbed him a man of wealth and prestige. His faithful horse, arrayed in a richly embroidered caparison, which swept the ground, and in trappings of shining gold, again bespoke the master to be a man of no low degree. The saddle too, encrusted with jewels, marked the owner to be a person of great importance. As the pair followed the path at a leisurely pace, the rider blithely sang the joys of the morning. On either side of the roadway, bright were the green and rustling leaves of the trees. Still, the leaves, as they softly murmured, seemed to whisper a warning to the handsome traveler, a foreboding of some impending danger. Even the tiny pebbles, which the horse kicked aside with each step, and the shrill cry of a bird now and then, and the insects, buzzing in the underbrush —all, it seemed, attempted to forewarn the traveler of some sad fate. But, heedless, the proud stranger journeyed on—what had he to fear? He was brave, honest, and dauntless. At a sharp turn in the path, the whole atmosphere seemed to change. The birds and the insects became hushed; the air grew still; and the horse, sensing danger, raised his head, his nostrils quivering, and hesitated. Sud- denly—whiz—an arrow cut the air, missed the rider by inches, and pierced a nearby tree. The horse, terror-stricken, reared, straining at the bit; but the rider, instantly alert, steadied and soothed the frightened animal. Suddenly, from out of nowhere, it seemed, there appeared a great number of men, dressed in Lincoln green. One—the leader—as he boldly stepped forward, laughed heartily. Greetings, my friend. Do not be alarmed. 'Twas merely a playful fellow who shot the arrow. We are really here on business. Business? queried the rider. Thy name, stranger? demanded the outlaw as he carefully fingered the velvet caparison. Paxe Sixty brcc 1 am the Spirit of the Class of 1934 and am on my way to West Orange High School. Begone! I have already tarried too long. This last speech brought a roar of laughter from the band of outlaws. The stranger is in a hurry. Make haste men! Strip the jolly fellow of his valuables, commanded the leader, who was none other than Robin Hood. The Spirit raised his sword to piotect himself, but it was useless—he was out-numbered. Every costly article was taken. Only his horse was left him, and sadly he departed from the foresters as they loudly laughed and jested. It was not until September, 1931, that this brave knight, a somewhat bedraggled figure then, with Poverty closely following at his heels, reached West Orange High School. At his arrival, however, there was a hearty welcome; and soon he was known and loved as the Class of 1934. It was not long after his coming that a great election was held; and amid much bustle and excitement, Ezra Rosenbaum was chosen to be the first president cf the class. How important they felt! It was a grand experience—having new teachers, seeing new faces, finding new friends. Later in the year, two sophomore debating teams were formed, the outstanding members of which were Mayer Franklin, Delores Schneider, Ezra Rosenbaum, Marie Albers, Aida Smith, and Julian Lipmcm. As the year waned and finally passed, and the new year entered, the class became more and more accustomed to their surroundings and followed a normal course of existence, rather uneventful as usual. They secretly longed for the time when they would be juniors. September, 1932, finally came; and the Class of 1934 gathered at West Orange High School as the Junior Class with Harriet Bouton as their president. During that year, the class as a whole became much better known and much more prominent. Certain members were recognized for their outstanding success in scholastic pursuits, especially, Anna Mikulyak, Mayer Franklin, and Ezra Rosenbaum. The class was also proud of the fact that three of its members—Harriet Bouton, Edward Kennedy, and Obert Rom—were chosen on the Assembly Council. Even in sports, the juniors ranked high; and gold footballs were earned that year by Dalton, Lamb, Schmidt, and Teed. It was, however, in that year that the class began to feel the effects of the ill-luck which had befallen the Spirit of their class in the Forest of Sherwood. Funds were very low; but the class finally managed to have the Junior-Senior party and. of course, the Junior Prom. The Junior-Senior party, a combined de- pression and masquerade dance, was thoroughly enjoyed by nearly every member of the class. At the Prom the class was transported from the cold blasts of a New Jersey winter to the romantic atmosphere of a warm, south- ern resort with its wonderful beach, its beautiful palms, and its gay nights. It was with a strange feeling, one morning, that the Class of 1934 awakened to find itself the Senior Class of West Orange High School. Edward Page Sixty-four Kennedy, a popular member of the class, was chosen to be the last class president. Launched upon the last lap of their high school career, they found themselves doing greater and more serious things; their greatest under- takings being the producing of the play The Tavern and the publishing of the 1934 West-O-Ranger. Each project brought to their minds the fact that a great depression existed in the nation. With the play came the work of selling tickets, hard work with plenty of discouragement because of the in- tense economic strain; but the tickets were finally sold, and the play was a wonderful success. No one will ever forget The Tavern with its splendid acting, its colorful costumes, its mysterious events, its realistic thunderstorm, and Ed Kennedy's catchy theme song and tricky dance. The Advertising Department of the year book staff also confronted the same economic diffi- culties in trying to secure enough advertisements to make the annual a suc- cess. However, they set about their task in the same spirit with which they had sold their tickets for their play; and a second time they won a victory and sent their year book to press. Mid-year examinations also caused the seniors much worry and distress; and they were happy that there was but cne more final examination in high school. In order to help the members of the school to forget these hateful exams, the juniors planned a Prom, which was a memorable affair because of the colorful patriotic decorations and the thrilling evening of dancing. After the mid-term had passed, the days slipped quickly by; and before the seniors had hardly thawed out from the cold of the two record-breaking blizzards, spring arrived and rapidly passed, summer drew near, and with it came final examinations, the never-to-be-forgotten Farewell, the joyous class day, and the greatest event of all, graduation. And then came the time for saying farewell, the day when the Class of i934 sadly left the beloved halls of West .Orange High School. With them, however, they carried the memory of their happy school days, a treasure to be cherished and enjoyed by them in the future, a possession always to be their own as Sara Teasdale has so beautiiully voiced in the following words: Into my heart's treasury I slipped a coin That time cannot take Nor a thief purloin— Oh, better than the minting Of a gold-crowned king Is the safe-kept memory Of a lovely thing.

Page Seventy Robin stops a SorrowfunTKnight PROPHECY k AY harsh, profane language shattered the dusty stillness of the tower- ” ■ room, a snug retreat, as I struggled with the rusty casement. The fa- miliar tapestry, hanging against a cold, giey, stone wall, stirred impercepti- bly, shivering, it seemed, as I, from the dank, musty atmosphere, pervading the air. Ho, Merry Bowman of Sherwood! I mocked in thoughtless pro- fanation. Thy doublet—'tis a trifle mouldy, and dust sits heavy upon thy beard like hoarfrost on a drab November grass. Thou—thou—ah—ahc—choo! Myriads of rosy dust particles, stirred from the nondescript hanging on the wall, pirouetted in the bright sun's fading beams. I screwed my eyes half-shut, smarting as they were, to open them wide, moments later, upon a mellow, multi-colored tapestry, dust-free. Foremost against the woven fabric stood Robin Hood, feet boldly planted in scuffed autumn leaves, his great bow grasped in a brown-knuckled fist. Tall and grey-countenanced stood Little John in forest-green, a pace behind Robin. Crimson and green, butter yellow, royal purple, carmine, white, blue—a threaded spectrum was this embroidery] Color! People are color, I reasoned. Their pasts are odors and colors in- timate to them—like idiosyncracies. Grandmama's calico was a loud pink; her first ball gown, a deep purple. Gran'mama lived her youth madly. Now, she sits in her rocker, sewing, unobtrusive in black —somber, unrelieved black. As I settled into a deep apathy of disconcerted thought, the colors of the tapestry gleamed faintly and cast their prismatic reflections across my face. Gay green, mused I, truly was symbolic of the nature of Robin Hood and his troupe, audacious worshippers at the shrine of adveniurel It seemed, as I slouched thus in my chair, that the colors verily seeped through my blouse into my soul and into my fev nsh brain—my brain, a miniature tower- room. where are harbored thoughts of the future, hibernating. I sit fascinated; and as though by magic, classmates appear before my mind like a proces- sional of characters from Swift's Gulliver's Travels. The first in this odd phalanx to attract my attention is a dark, curly-headed girl, dressed in viva- cious orange and yellow, the color of sunlight on a wheat-field. Thelma—I trow; capricious Thelma, in riding habit, seated unsteadily on a corral gate, fervently dramatizing Shakespeare's balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet. Et tu, Romeo! she exclaims passionately. Eh-eh-eh-eh, a black filly, wrinkling her nose in disgust, nickers ludic- rously at her. Riding academies and correspondence courses in drama evi- dently do not jibe facilely, I conclude. Paw Sriv� )’-«� • Succeeding Thelma, Louise Mason, swathed in subtle draperies, glides before my astonished eyes, poised, assured, a lovely lady. The frocks she models for Henri Bendel, New York, might all be hers if she were only to answer that dashing Princeton graduate's insistent question. At this point, a tailored suit in reserved color marks the untimely appear- ance of Sir Edwin Kennedy, Oxford graduate, staid barrister, who has been weekending at Sea-Drome Five with disturbing regularity. Mrs. Knowles- Jacobe-Bowers, in baby blue, slithers toward Sir Edwin, a bright smile upon her lips. Her healthy tan confirms the rumor that she, too, has been sojourn- ing at Sea-Drome Five after her strenuous air tour of the world. What's this? I exclaim. A walking piano? Ho, ho, ho! No—for groaning beneath the weight of it, Walter Sweitzer and John Kent struggle with the bright purple Baby Grand. Cheese—the life of a movin' man ain't no cinch. We cud do better in the poultry business— Is zat so? a falsetto voice demands behind them. Thomastasia Benito Locasale, hidden under the heavy black curls of his shoulder-length bob, hustles them by. With his recently acquired nom de plume, he has be- come ungovernably temperamental. My concert! he wails as he gesticu- lates frenziedly and almost bumps into a busy, brown figure who bustles by with a huge, black portfolio under-arm, engraven in the gold initials A. M. As she turns toward me, I recognize the passer-by's face to be none other than that of Anna Mikulyak. A sudden, scintillating glare blinds me. I shade my eyes from the brightness thrown in my direction. A bevy of cellophane-clad bathing beau- ties stand almost beside me—Doris Leitch, Betty Neudeck, the Bouton sisters. An exclamation dies in my throat. The object of their solicitous attention is a tall, bronzed figure who towers in their midst—Joe Ippolito!! Much to my irritation, they hurry off as a brisk business-like man follows in their wake. But Joe stands open-mouthed and grunts, Anybody'd think Pironti was their business manager instead of a bathing-suit salesman, putting on Fashion Shows as a publicity stunt! Oomph! a peculiar noise, half-grunt, half-groan, galvanizes Ippy to sudden action. An arm twists itself from beneath his foot. A torso and two legs, dripping sand, make their appearance, respectively. Assembled, they introduce themselves as Ernie. He disentangles himself, rummages in the sand, recovers a tiny saxophone, and indignantly crunches off. Ignoring Pironti, Joe spurts after him. My eyes follow him as he gains the boardwalk Pa e Set rnty-hio and pants past Stickle's Trained-Flea Circus and Hatch's Hamburger Hovel in the wake of the sleek-headed Livingston Flash. Elbowing a frantic path through the milling, casual, bright crowds, he bumps awkwardly into a thin, lazy-looking fellow, who wears a signboard, thus emblazoned: Hatch's Hovel Delicious Hamburgers Rare or Well-Done Burnt, Half-Price I ruminate perplexedly to myself—Ronald—Roland—Roy—Ralph—Ralph Dor- land, to be sure, still unhurried by the rush of life, churning about him. At the sound of an audible sigh close behind me, I turn and recognize the tall, grey-smocked figure to be Everett Draper. Seemingly remote from all of the hectic activity, which streams about him, painstakingly he daubs riotous color on a mute, long-suffering palette. Without warning, a figure, ied-clad and vibrant, with notebook in hand, undrapes itself from a near-by jetty. Her platinum locks betray her to be Winifred Perrin; the notebook, to be a contemporary art-critic. A sudden breeze whips the white sand in little eddies, and instinctively I screw my eyes shut. Reluctantly opening them, I am taken completely by surprise with a crowd of blatant beach-combers, carousing under the board- walk. The funster, who commands most attention, is none other than Dutch Dalton. He squats before a fat chicken, plucked almost bare of its feathers. Two disreputable-looking individuals saunter onto the sands, bearing a creak- ing market-basket. Eagerly Dalton pushes Danbeck and Perciante aside and pounces upon it. From my point of vantage, I see miraculously appear three fish, a can of com, a giant sized box of Clochessy's Cough Drops, two bottles of pickles, and a wind-shield wiper. Perciante, preceiving that Dalton's at- tention is directed elsewhere, ambles toward the bulkhead behind which I stand, hidden. He settles himself in the sand, luxuriously stretching, and opens a newspaper across his lap. By gawking, I can read the front page. Bob Iden, sports commentator, was entertained at a luncheon today, given by a group of twenty-two advertising men, members of a national syndicate. Guest speaker was ex-Senator Schneider; Mr. Berwyn Force, Corporate-President, was also present, he having flown from Quebec early this morning. An item underneath this article also draws my attention. Mile. Saynor returns from abroad with a spring collection of exciting new clothes. Formal showing will be at her Fifth Avenue Shop during the early part of next week. P« r Seventy-three But occupying the bulk of the newspaper columns, is a condensed resume of the new President's first term in office. Scanning this article, printed in bold Columbian type, 1 read: The nation's newest leader, a radical, has put into practice many revolutionary, socialistic ideas, dreamed of previous to Rosenbaum's administration but never wholly realized until this year. The House has been the scene of heated debates between the representatives since the introduction of the Bobby Pin Bill. The anti-socialist forces rallied strongly yesterday under the apt leadership of Representative Mayer Frank- lin, who steadily maintains that Bobby Pins are a menace to society. My eyes flit over the crowded page to a mirth-provoking news corre- spondence from Hoboken, entitled— Marathon Participants Still Lively. The article reads: The dogged determination of team, number four, Mark- with and Leitner, seems to be winning the $2,000 prize of platinum in the chewing-gum Marathon now in progress at Hawley's Amusement Park. Mmes. Markwith and Leitner chew Coffey's Triple-Chocolate Flavor. Perciante's scrutiny shifts to an advertising column, and his eyes gleam anticipatively. He impatiently pushes back some unruly locks of black hair that fall across his forehead. My mind immediately grasps the situation as I read softly to myself: Monsieur Georges Schlegel Le Petit Salon de Beaute Latest Transformations Hair Coloring and Permanent Waving Done under Expert Supervision I wish to read more, but Perciante contrarily thumbs the pages over to find what he most enjoys—the daily funny sheet. First, he carefully reads the Daily Horoscope; then he focuses his rapt attention upon Fanny's Foibles by Kushmy. These lively cartoons seem to me remote from Walt's high school days when he aimlessly caricatured a blissfully unaware biology teacher. I laugh aloud. The spell is broken. Fanny wriggles before my eyes as I look into the startled faces of Nick, Dalton, and Danbeck. The wide beach whirls crazily in the background, and then is no more. My eyes watered, smarted as I started from my reverie. It was evening. Blackness cowered in the corners and threw a half-mantle over the wall- hanging. Dust had settled once more on the mouldy tapestry. A beam of silv'ry moonlight played across Robin Hood's face, which still wore its sar- donic, fixed smile.

As their hearts still further sink, And their minds refuse to think, Scared and numb, On they dash in breathless hurry through the street quite all alone. Now their hearts are pounding, pounding; from their lips escapes a moan. Louder, louder clangs the bell, Piercing bell! Louder in its raging anger Clangs the blatant warning bell! II Hear the mellow noontime bell. Luncheon belli What a world of happiness its echoings foretell To the ears of girls and boys, Tired of work, now set for noise, While the luncheon smells they sniff, As they drift in, whiff on whiff 1 Tired and bored, Now they grow more lean and lank as minutes lag and drag for all; And they stare about half dizzy at teacher, ceiling, floor, and wall. Sweeter, sweeter rings the bell, Luncheon bell! Sweeter with its cheerful message Rings the mellow luncheon bell! III Hear the tolling, dooming bell, Exam bell! What a world of trials, now, its tollings deep foretell To the frightened ears of those Whom results will soon expose! They bemoan now work they've shirked; Times their studies have them irked; Sad and scared, Quickly then they try to learn what they haven't all the term; And their conscience gnaws and troubles as the wood, the boring worm. Hollow, hollow, tolls the bell, Judgment bell! Sobbing with its awful summons Tolls the hollow exam bell! IV Hear the joyous freedom bell, Vacation bell! What a world of happiness its tinglings clear foretell To the eager ears of all Whom vacation days now call! Clearer, clearer, rings the bell, Freedom bell! Clearer with its merry message Rings the joyous freedom bell! Page Seventy-six LAUREL GERTRUDE HELEN SCHRAMM II mr 1934 Page Seventy-seven SCHOOL DAYS We brand new seniors came back to school On a beautiful autumn mom; We'd made resolutions, during morning ablutions, Our studies this year not to scorn. So we pitched right in with such vigor and vim That we won every teacher's heart; And I'm sure they'll say, when we've gone our way, There was never a class so smart. How it grieves us to see them depart! Every forenoon at twelve, we rushed down the stairs, A starving ravenous throng; And in fashion most crude, we gob- bled down food With appetites like that of King Kong. Our minds got a rest while, with laughter and jest, The moments passed quickly away; And with 'tummies' well filled, inner clamorings stilled, We dozed through the rest of the day To the teachers' eternal dismay. What fun we all had on that N.R.A. day! And didn't you love that parade? Along marched our band; my, they sure did play grand! The best of the whole cavalcade. Messrs. Reimherr and Strong march- ed blithely along, With true, loyal fervor and zest; And upon the bass drum, Mr. Reim- herr sat plumb When he felt that he needed a rest. Marches surely put arches to test. One cold, wintry night, we seniors presented An up-to-date, gay Melerdrammer ; The Tavern, 'twas called; listeners all sat enthralled; 'Twas performed in a marvelous manner. The hero audacious and beauty flirtatious With romance our hearts set a flutter While the red-headed lady and vil- lain so shady Scared Willum, and how he did stut- ter! My, how he did tremble and mutter! Pagt Seventy-eight Then came the mad winter of bleak '34 SCHOOL DAYS With blizzards of snow and of sleet; On the ice, we did fall; into snow- drifts, we'd sprawl And then painfully get to our feet. On comers windswept, we shivered and wept, And waited in vain for the trolley. Our noses turned red, and we bit- terly said, To have school in such weather is folly 1 Who said, 'Old-fashioned winters are jolly'? One day, came a lady to show to us girls Just how to enhance our own beauty; She warned us, Take care to re- main young and fair, For that is a woman's chief duty. Life's a fast moving race, and a well- powdered face Will help you to win your success. So keep smiling and gay, smooth those wrinkles away, And all of you girls will possess The skin the boys love to caress. The long dreaded times of reck'ning rolled round In June and cold January. Then those who had shirked knew they ought to have worked, And none of us felt extra merry. Late at night, we did cram for the morrow's exam And finally retired to dream Of the French Revolution, the Math. problem's solution, And Macbeth and his cold blooded queen ♦ As, on Duncan, they vented their spleen. At last, we achieved our long hoped- for success On the night of our school graduation. But we found that our gladness was tinged with faint sadness, In our hearts a half mournful elation; For we thought with a sigh we must now say good-bye To our school days, so carefree and gay. May the friends we have made from our memories ne'er fade But secure in our hearts always stay, Growing brighter and brighter each day.

My tear-dimmed eyes cast a longing, lingering look upon the worn and idle objects that have become so endeared to me during my three years of training, objects that after tomorrow will be but memories. As I bid farewell to my favorite haunts and review the incidents that occurred within them, I laugh and sigh in turn. Here is the book-laden library where, under Lady Bedell's stem but twinkling eye, my fellow-students and I pored over reams of written lore and slyly exchanged jokes and winks behind the Times . My feet now pause outside Lady Toomey's office by the stairs; it is filled with sweet memories of her and her friendly counsel, and I am sad. I wander past Lady Weissenbom's sanc- tuary, a dungeon to the struggling non-enthusiasts, a haven to the poetically minded. Forgotten now are the bloddy struggles in which we engaged with the fiery dragon, English IV; and the reward alone, a shining 95 , remains. A sigh of regret escapes my lips as I take a last peek at the Chemistry Lab- oratory where, in flowing smocks, we looked wise as Lord Taylor lectured on the why's and wherefore's of this and that. A tear for all the delicious aromas, which we prepared to scent the upper corridors, is hastily brushed away; and I continue my way down past Nurse Lumley's abode, the salva- tion of students not having finished their homework or made preparation for a test. But time speeds heedlessly on, and the hour of my knighting grows near. With the morrow will come the young, white-organdied maids, with flowery wreaths and song, and the good folk from the country-side, beaming in their pride and offering congratulations and encouragement. Then Lord-Chancellor Reimherr will unbend from his dignity and wish me a cheery Good Luck . Because, during the years of my training for knighthood, I have gained much from my associations with the younger squires and pages as well as the advisers, before I go I wish to leave to them, in token of my gratitude, a few treasured possessions. Therefore, I, the Class of 1934, to be knighted by His Grace, King Solo- mon of the House of Strong, on the 26th of June, bequeath to the teachers and to the pages and squires, who have entered these castle walls to train for knighthood under the rule of Lord-Chcmcellor Reimherr, the following: 1. To the Class of '35, I present a Senior Year as gloriously happy as mine has been. 2. To Miss Hilson, I leave undying thanks for all the time and energy she has devoted toward making our Year Book a success. 3. To Coach Evans and the 1934 squad, I will the best football season yet (seasoned with victories). Page Eighty-three 4. To English teachers who regret losing Everett Draper, their map- maker, I leave his brother, a ready pinch-hitter. 5. To the Class of 1935 and all the newcomers to W. O. H. S., I leave Miss Drew, who is so proficient at making novices feel at home as Seniors (or Juniors). 6. To Stretch Danbeck, Anna Mikulyak leaves her ambition and reputation as an excellent student. 7. Some of Bill Quinn's seriousness, wrapped up in silver and tied with a green ribbon, is willed to Thomas Keaton (who we hope will accept it). 8. To Eleanor Paul, I leave Berwyn Force's ability to play the bull-fid- dle . 9. Ernie Teed leaves his rep as a football star and a lady-killer to Tiny Olivero, who hasn't arrived at the lady-killing stage yet. 10. Everett Draper graciously leaves all his height to Peter Tolley, who really ought to come up in the world. 11. To any forthcoming senior, who feels that he can handle the job of head ticket salesman for Senior Dramatics, Ed Nelson leaves his laurels. 12. To Ruth Grandstaff and Eleanor Bixel, I leave Mary Allen's and Ruth Bartlett's inseparable friendship. 13. The Social Up-Lift Boys ' Ahr, Gamborg, Schneider, and Tunstead, deeply regretting that they must leave Senior Music Class, bestow upon Mr. Gretton their copyrights to Oui, oui, Rosalie . 14. To all bashful lovers, who can't stand the public gaze, I leave Miss Bedell's Sunday Times as a protection. 15. Elsa Bums leaves her naive blushes to junior girls, who aren't blessed with such demure charm, although I don't know how Elsa will man- age without them. 16. To Richard Halligan, I leave Louise Mason's everlasting smile. 17. Dorothy Buehler leaves her twinkling toes to Vivian Stranahan to carry on the dance. 18. Gertrude Johnson and Evelyn Dodd leave their sunny dispositions to the sophomore girls who have lost theirs somewhere on the way. 19. Walter Kuchmy leaves his talent of keeping quiet to Bill Kearney. (I doubt if he'll want it; but probably for the sake of others, he'll accept it). 20. Joe Rutan leaves Tiny Olivero and Bill Loveikas the position of guard, and I hope they'll sink those baskets as often as Joe did. 21. Delores and Edwin Schneider leave their abilities as debaters to stammering and awkward tenderfeet. Page Eighty-four 22. To those discontented and impatient juniors, I leave Rose Wojtko's patience and earnestness. 23. That rollicking ballad of the vagabond, Edward Kennedy bequeaths to the dramatically inclined. 24. After a good season as basketball manager, Leonard Goldin re- linquishes his post to Stewey Sandeis. 25. The senior girls, namely Pat, Gert, Elsa, Lois, and Helen, have bundled together their extra supply of dimples and leave them to a little blonde fellow, named Martin, for Sunday and special holiday use. 26. Thelma Dowd, the mystery woman Violet, leaves her bewitching wiles as well as her scream to Mary McConnell. 27. To Bud McHugh, I leave my best wishes that he will make as suc- cessful a football manager as Bob Iden. 28. Albert Silver leaves his gift of oratory to Johnny Schoen for future use in giving oral topics. 29. To a boy, just-so-high, Johnny McColgan leaves his boots and What's all the shootin' for? 30. Lambert Baxter leaves his title as Jack William's right-hand man to Edward Price who is electrically-minded. 31. Jessie Rowan leaves her crowning glory to Ellen Good, hoping that Dave won't mind a red-head instead of a blonde. 32. Eleanor Bixel is to inherit most of Dorothy Hinkley's winning person- ality. 33. To Jarvis Buxton, I leave the position of center, hoping he'll hold that line as well as Artie Schmidt. 34. To Sally Fields, I leave some of Theresa's width and Aida's height in the hope that some day Sally will be a big girl. 35. Chester Lloyd, blushingly, leaves his splendid physique to Lee Slockbower. • 36. Mildred Kilgus won't consent to leaving her Billie to anyone, but she does agree to leave Mae Flammer the very last word in Hollywood coif- feurs. 37. To struggling juniors who need 95% in English, I leave Louise Anderson's so-called drag with Mr. Thomas. The above testament, I leave in the hands of the Ladies-in-Waiting, Natalie and Dorothy, to be executed in the minutest detail. And now fare- well and best wishes, for I must be off to win what favors the world will be- stow upon a knight. Page Eighty-five GUIDANCE Alone I walked along the narrow road, For many hours traversed the winding way; I knew not where to rest, cast off my load, And I was weary at the close of day. My heart was sad; I could not understand What made it so, why Fate to me thus dealt Her aloes; e'en that unseen, guiding Hand Seemed gone, and then despairingly I knelt. Dear God, I begged, be near me all the while, And keep my feet from stumbling o'er each stone ' Then down the road a light shed mile on mile Its crimson beams: I was no more alone. I looked with joy above the path I'd trod— Beheld the sunset, masterpiece of God. — ------------------------------------------------------------------ DEBATING OF all the extra-curricular activities of the school, debating probably enjoys the most favored place in the minds of the students, parents, and teach- ers. In the first debate of the year, in which Edward Kennedy, William Plume, Julian Lipman, and Albert Silver upheld the affirmative side of the question and Edwin Schneider, Mayer Franklin, Fred Sommers, and Ezra Rosenbaum upheld the negative, the question discussed was: Resolved, That the United States should adopt the British Broadcasting System. The decision was unanimously made in favor of the affirmative team, coached by Miss Hilson. The negative team was coached by Miss Weissenbom. Edwin Schneider re- ceived two votes for best speaker and Albert Silver received one vote. The second debate, coached by Miss Bliss and Miss McCloskey, advo- cated free clinics and free medicines for those needing them. The affirma- tive debaters were: Louise Anderson, Delores Schneider, Ruth Bartlett, and Marie Albers; and the negative: Mildred Jamison, Zelda Korland, Jean Pearce, and Mary Allen. The negative team won the decision, and Jean Pearce and Delores Schneider obtained votes for the best speaker. The third debate was given by the juniors on the subject that taxation should be applicable to intangible as well as tangible property. Miss Breisch cmd Mr. Thomas were coaches of the affirmative and negative team, respect- ively. The negative team was awarded the decision, and Donald Woodford received the three votes for best speaker. The affirmative team members were: Vivian Stranahan, Eleanor Bixel, losette Smith, and Donald Woodford; the negative: Agnes McGuirk, Henry Clochessy, Ellen Good, and Earl Wil- liams. The last debate of the season was given by the Sophomores: Charmion McGuirk, Eileen Terwilliger, John Howell, John Billings, Raymond Johnson, jean Ramsden, Joyce Doty, and Morris Fruman. Page Eighty-seven W9NW-0-2S3 n THE ANNUAL STAFF THROUGHOUT the year, we of the staff have toiled diligently in an effort to produce a year book that would reflect the high standards at which our class has aimed in all its endeavors. It has not proved an easy task, but it has been a happy one; for we have experienced the greatest of all joys: we have created, and we feel our creation to be a worthy one. To Miss Hilson, we wish to express our deepest gratitude and apprecia- tion for the invaluable help and guidance which she has so unstintingly given us. When we faltered by the wayside, she was beside us to lend a helping hand over the rough spots, and to give us the encouragement, which spurred us on to complete our journey. We also wish to thank Miss Hergt and Miss Drew for their advice and suggestions. Now, take this book and cherish it always. In after years, as you turn the pages, you will find that they send forth a sweet and alluring fragrance, for this book is steeped in the rarest of all perfumes—the distilled essence of your youth.

At- tendance at the meetings is limited to the members; but on one day during the year, the society presents a program in assembly for the benefit of the entire student body. This year, Clio's assembly program, given in early March, was a tremendous success. In its travels with Richard Haliburton, it set a standard of program difficult for Philo to equal. At the Spring Banquet, Clio hopes to become the permanent owner of the silver loving cup, awarded each year to the society having the higher scho- lastic average, by obtaining the trophy for the third successive year. If present happenings are any clue to future events, Clio's hopes for winning the cup are foreshadowed by her successes in many of the contests that have been held at the joint meetings. In order to maintain a good scholastic standard in the societies, the club excludes, for the following marking period, any member whose marks fall below those required for eligibility to election. With such high aims as the promotion of educational projects and the fostering of better scholarship, the Cliosophic Literary Society is certain to be as popular in the future as it has been in the past.

Every other meeting is conducted by the Philologian Society. The literary societies foster good scholarship; for if a pupil wishes to be- come a member, he must have a general average of at least seventy-five per cent, and he must be accepted by the members. Each member must also participate in, at least, one program a semester; and in endeavoring to make his society superior to the other, he gains practice in speaking that is a valuable part of his training. Once a year, each society selects its best members to present a program in assembly. In this, too, the two societies compete for quality of entertainment. At the June banquet, a scholarship cup is presented by Mr. Reimherr to the society having the higher general scholastic average. For two years, the Cliosophic Society has been the auspicious winner, but this year the Philologians have resolved to be the victors. The pupils of West Orange High School are justly proud of the Philo- logian Society and hope that it will be an even greater success in the future than it has been in the past. Paw Ninety-one LE CIRCLE FRANCAIS THERESA MUTA ......................................President JOSETTE SMITH ................................Vice-President MARIE ALBERS ......................................Secretary PEGGY MEYERS ......................................Treasurer MISS ALLEN, MISS SIBLEY ...................Faculty Advisers UNDER the direction of Miss Allen and Miss Sibley, the members of the French Classes who have attained a satisfactory average in their work form a club, the purpose of which is to aid the students in their study of the French language, the country, its inhabitants, and their customs. At the meetings, held once a month, movies of French places of interest are shown, French games are played, and songs and stories are sung and told in the language of France. According to the custom of the past, the club will give a program in as- sembly which will undoubtedly be of interest to the entire school, despite the fact that not all the students understand the language in which parts of it will oe given. Le Circle Francois has enjoyed a very instructive, educational, and in- teresting year and looks forward to a greater success in the future. THE GERMAN CLUB WILLIAM PLUME ............................President EZRA ROSENBAUM ......................Vice-President EDNA FIX .................................Secretary FRED SOMMER ..............................Treasurer MISS WRENSCH .......................Faculty Adviser THE German Club is holding its monthly meeting this morning. Let's join them and see just what goes on. Miss Wrensch, the capable guiding spirit of the club, is looking very jolly this morning; we can count on a good program. The club owes its ex- istence to Miss Wrensch, who organized it two years ago; and through her efforts it has become an outstanding school organization. By the way, that mischievous-looking fellow, teasing her, is none other than the illustrious president of the club. The business of the club has already been conducted, and everyone is ready for an hour of enjoyable entertainment. Some of the members are to give talks on famous German musicians. Several talks on German art, lit- erature, music, or science are given at each meeting; and the students, in this way, obtain an insight into German life and culture. The speakers have acquitted themselves nobly, speaking with a fluency and correctness that reflects great credit on their instructor. Now the club is ready for something in a lighter vein. The pianist strikes a chord, throats are hastily cleared, and soon the room is filled with the merry strains of old German folk songs. Lovely golden-haired vampires, broken-hearted lovers, and swashbuckling adventurers—they are the heroes and heroines of these songs, warbled with infinite gusto and eloquence by the German students. As the club period is now almost over, we will slip quietly out, with the strains of Du, du, liegst mir im Herzen ringing lustily in our ears. Page Ninety-three SPANISH CLUB IRENE GATTONI ..............................President HANNAH DUNN ................................Treasurer RITA McCAMBLEY .............................Secretary MISS EATON ...................................Adviser THE Spanish Club, the purpose of which is to give Spanish students an op- ■ portunity to attain a deeper understanding of the culture, customs, and characteristics of the Spanish people, meets once each month. This year, the programs have been interesting and varied. At the opening meeting, the club had the privilege of listening to Miss Inez Johnson, Supervisor of Grades in the West Orange Schools, who gave a colorful account of her trip to Spain. Other meetings were spent in the singing of Spanish folk songs and the play- ing of Spanish games. Three of the members of the club have just accom- plished the difficult and nerve-racking task of translating an English play into Spanish, a play which will be dramatized at one of the future club meetings. Under the competent leadership of Miss Eaton, the club has enjoyed an- other highly successful year. Page Ninety-font SETUIT CLUB DOROTHY HINKLEY ..............................President ELSA BURNS ..............................Vice-President WINIFRED PERRIN ..............................Recording Secretary GERTRUDE JOHNSON .........................Corresponding Secretary BARBARA BRANDT ...............................Treasurer MRS. FLORENCE FARR .......................Dean of Girls ONLY the happiest of memories and the most loving of thoughts are stirred within the hearts of each loyal West Orange High School girl by the name, the Setuit Club. Its white candle of purity and blue banner of loy- alty are, indeed, appropriate insignia, symbolozing truly the ideals of the club. So high and fine are the aims of this organization that each girl is in- spired to be sympathetic, considerate, and benevolent; to refrain from unkind criticism; to love sincerity and truth; to promote good comradeship; and to be optimistic at all times. The officers of the club and an able executive committee with the help of our dean, Mrs. Farr, plan the girls' monthly assembly programs which, so far this year, have been exceedingly enjoyable. The first assembly of the school year was almost entirely devoted to the impressive initiation service of the sophomore girls. The Christmas pageant, presented by the club to the whole student body, was perhaps the most impressive program of this year. The club appreciates the interest of the new dean in carrying on the work of the Setuit Club, and it is the hope of each Setuit of 1934 that the club will continue to grow in its power of developing a friendly, kindly spirit among the girls for— Pa r Nincty-fitc In friendship lies the joy superlative, And nearest heaven. THE ASSEMBLY COUNCIL EDWARD KENNEDY .................................President JEAN PERSONS ..............................Vice-President JESSIE ROWAN ...................................Secretary MISS KATHERINE BLISS .....................Faculty Adviser THE Assembly Council is that group of students who, with the aid of Miss Bliss, plan our assembly programs. So far this year we have had interesting assemblies with various speak- ers both from the student body and from the public platform. The programs have consisted of several well prepared debates; a musical program, devoted to the explanation of the many instruments of the orchestra; a variety per- formance, which exhibited the talents of a number of pupils; an address by a visitor concerning Iceland; and programs, sponsored by the two literary societies. The membership of this organization includes the officers mentioned and the following pupils: Harriet Bouton, Obert Rom, Robert Brennan, Ezra Rosen- baum, Donald Woodford, and Ellen Good. The Council does a splendid work in planning not only educational but also enjoyable programs.

EASTWOOD .....................Faculty Adviser UNDER the able guidance of Mr. Eastwood, the West Orange Hi-Y Club has enjoyed one of the finest years since its founding. A prospectus and conspectus chart of the meetings, drawn up early in the season, has helped much in making the year's activities worth while. On each Tuesday night, the club secures an interesting speaker, one of whom was Mr. Reimherr, who spoke on some of the problems of youth. A man from the Prudential Life Insurance Company spoke on insurance. An- other visitor spoke concerning the refining of oil; and, through his courtesy, the boys enjoyed a trip through the Standard Oil Company's Refining Plant. This experience was both enlightening and interesting. Following the programs, a social period is enjoyed in which games are played, such as, ping-pong, pool, or table croquet. Through the permission of the Orange Y , the members of the club may also have a swim after the program. Special nights are sometimes used entirely for social activities. Two excellent 'Splash and Hop' Parties were held on February 9 and April 13 respectively, both of which were social successes. The club has also fostered social dancing after school, the proceeds of which were used for charity. You can readily understand by a study of the intellectual, the athletic, and the social activities of the club that the West Orange Hi-Y is trying to help its members live up to their motto of Clean Speech, Clean Thoughts, and Clean Athletics.

It is the Glee Club practicing under the capa- ble and sympathetic leadership of Mr. Gretton. At the Christmas assembly, the Club sang several songs; and at various other assemblies during the year, individual members have entertained us with solos. Mr. Gretton is planning to have the club sing at an exhibition to be given in the spring for the benefit of the parents, in which many extra-curricu- lar groups will take part. The Glee Club has always been known as one of the most active of all school organizations, and this year it has again justified its reputation.

How- ever, the success of the band can be attributed not only to the diligent work of the players but also to the splendid support and encouragement of the student body. At all of the football games, the striking red and white uniforms of the band contributed much to the enthusiastic spirit of the gathering. In addition to playing at all of the football games and pep-meetings, the faithful mem- bers of the band offered their services at the N.R.A. Parade of the Oranges and at a few of the Parent-Teacher s Association meetings. As usual, this spring, the members will give a joint concert with the orchestra. The band has, this year, attempted to reach new heights. A new idea of Goldman's, that of having bass violins in the band, has been put into ef- fect. Also, for the first time, the band is planning to give, this spring, out- door concerts at Eagle Rock. We are sure that they will find many en- thusiastic listeners. Much of the success of the organization is due, of course, to the able leadership of Mr. Jennings Butterfield, Supervisor of Instrumental Music in the West Orange Schools. So rapid has been the growth of the band these last few years that everyone looks with interest to its future and heartily wishes it the best of luck.

Due to its prestige, it was invited to play at the opening ceremony of this year's Welfare Federation Drive; at the Senior Play; and at the dedica- tion of the Theodore Roosevelt Junior High School, at which Mrs. Roosevelt, first lady of the land, gave the dedicatory address. The orchestra has also presented musical programs at the Edison Junior High School as well as at the Senior High School, where Mr. Butterfield and the members of the or- chestra have created, among the students, a greater interest in music by, at times, explaining their program numbers and the contribution of each instru- ment to the tonal effects. In the fall term, Berwyn Force, Harriet Francis, Mayer Franklin, Doris Hallam, Richard Halligan, Florence Ingels, Thomas Keeton, Julian Lipman, Eleanor Paul, William Van Zee, and Carlisle Walton were chosen to play in the All-state High School Orchestra at Atlantic City. The members of the orchestra who will be graduated in June will be greatly missed; but with many new members, it is hoped the work of the 1934-'35 orchestra will surpass the excellent work of this year.

The Tavern, as the pro- duction was so aptly named by George M. Cohan, contemporary actor and playwright, was the fruit of the combined efforts of Miss Moses, our untiring coach, the cast, several committees on production, and a staff of business promoters. The play, a hair-raising, old-fashioned melodrammer, dis- played to best advantage the clever dramatic ability and comicalness of various members of the cast. The members of the cast were: The Tavern Keeper's Son—Zach .....................................Ezra Rosenbaum The Hired Girl—Sally ...............................Winifred J. Perrin The Tavern Keeper—Freeman ....................................Edwin D. Schneider The Hired Man—Willum .............................................lohn McColgan The Vagabond .....................................Edward O.

Wyczalek W£SG 0- Page One Hundred and Four PROLOGUE SERVING as an introduction to the senior play, Maids of Many Minds featured a light comical note. The Tavern successfully withstood the onslaught of the various participants of the prologue, listed below. To have the senior play cast after the type of drama, represented by her, was the cul- minating ambition of each of the characters. Melodrama finally combined the diverging desires of the maids. The participants in the prologue were: Senior Maid ......................... Youthful Maid ....................... Shakespearean Maid .................. Modem Maid ............................ Operetta Maid ....................... Country Maid ........................ Melodrama Maid ...................... Accompanist ......................... .......June Bouton .....Mary Meeker Madelyn Wallman ......Helen Asher ......Lillian Brasel ....Ruth McCarthy ....Annette Catalane ...Gertrude Johnson Pane One Hundred and Fite USHERS P ETIRING, and yet so all-important, the ushers in attendance at our Senior Play lent sparkle and zest to the production by their extravagant use of riotous color in dress. Boisterous senior girls became, for the evening, fem- inine coquettes who blushed prettily behind ticket stubs and candy trays. The ushers proved to be as dexterous in their manipulation of bustles and noop skirts as they were ment for both evenings, and tafieta, were: Mary Allen Ruth Bartlett Helen Burk Marie Czyzewski Muriel Donovan Rita Fallon Evelyn Foster Irene Gattoni Madeline Giampolo Doris Hallam Isabelle Kelleher Isabel Kusch in managing the ticket-se Those grande dames , Doris Leitch Catherine Leitner Alice MacWilliams Marie Albers Dorothy Kaul Catherine Bayowski Minnie Markwith Muriel Meeker Betty Neudeck Isabel Merwin Columbia Michaels Helen Opsal lling and seating arrange- who rustled in furbelows Amelia Price Dorothy Rathbun Jessie Rowan Edith Sarossy Phyllis Saynor Aida Smith Marion Telfair Mildred Wallace Helen Werner Myrtle Woelfle Millicent Wagner Rose Kerr Page One Hundred and Six ARMISTICE DAY PAGEANT A N impressive Armistice Day Program, presented in the form of a pageant, which has been given every few years since the first Armistice Day, was offered this year by the seniors under the direction of Miss Grace Moses. As the curtains parted, the Spirit of Democracy, Thelma Dowd, sum- moned her allies who were as follows: England—Myrtle Woelfle; France— Dorothy Haggerty; Belgium—Celeste Keiper; and Italy—Madeline Giampolo, Frances Rich, and Columbia Michaels. Each girl, appropriately dressed in her country's colors, entered to the strains of her nation's anthem. Then after the Spirit of the Tree, Eleanor Wyczalek, had recited the poem Trees, Louise Mason, Memory, read the names of those boys from West Orange who had died for their country in the World War. As each name was called, a girl, clad in white, walked slowly from the back of the auditorium down the aisle and presented a wreath to Memory to be placed later on the me- morial tree of the soldier who had paid the supreme sacrifice. During the pageant, there appeared the American soldier, John Tahaney, the American sailor, John Foley, and two scout leaders, Gerald Coffey and Hannah Weiss, all of whom symbolized the courage, cooperation, and sacrifice of the Ameri- can nation during the war. The Senior Class feels grateful for having had the opportunity of pre- senting the pageant, an opportunity which does not come to every class. PtiX r One Hu ml red and Seim THE LIBRARY FORUM T'HE Library Forum is composed of a group of boys and girls, chosen by the ■ librarian, Miss Bedell, to aid in the carrying-on of the work of the library. It is the duty of these people to deliver the library slips to the various study hall teachers, to arrange reference slips for distribution to the subject teachers, to help to keep the library in order, and to collect and mount clippings and pictures for the school's use. This year the Library Forum is composed of the following students: Mary Meeker, Peggy Meyers, Steffie Opresnick, Lois Squier, Edward Ahr, Everett Draper, Robert Iden, Peter Iovin, Penrose Kent, John Schmidlin, John Schoen, and Frank Sheehan. There is no frigate like a book To take us lands away, Nor any coursers like a page Of prancing poetry. —EMILY DICKINSON. Pjgc One Hundred and Eight CHEER LEADERS LET'S give a rousing cheer for our enthusiastic cheer leaders, those wide- awake, hard working boys who put so much of the pep and color into our football games. Under the fine leadership of Johnny McColgan, captain of this year's squad, the boys became crackerjacks at wringing louder and lustier cheers from the throats of the student body. Johnny will be graduated this year; Steve Billings, a second member of the group, has moved to Newark; and Henry Tordel, Dudley Cunningham, Joe Cahill, Bob Sandquist, and Douglas Smith will carry on next year. Cheer leading plays a very important part in the athletic program of the school; for our teams need the inspiration and encouragement which they receive when the cheering sections, under the guidance of capable leaders, cheer as one enthusiastic unit. Page One Hundred and Nine VARSITY FOOTBALL THE 1933 West Orange High School Varsity Football Team enjoyed a sea- son of which it can well be proud. Although the squad was weakened by the loss of nine letter men of the previous season, this exceptionally light but fast 1933 team lost only one game in nine starts. In the first three games of the season, West Orange fearlessly faced the three teams which had defeated her in 1932; and in these games, the Mount- aineers turned in three of the finest performances of the entire year by de- feating Millbum 13-0, Roselle Park 12-0, and East Orange 12-0. Incidentally, the East Orange defeat is the first rebuff the maroon and white has ever handed East Orange. In the game with Summit, the Cowboys kept their record intact by virtue of a brilliant thirty-five yard plunge, made by Phil Olivero, and scored a success to the tune of 7-0. West Orange then developed what might be called a close-shave com- plex. The first close-shave came in the Orange game. Previous to this time, West Orange had not been scored upon; but an inspired Orange team struck terror into the West Orange ranks by going so far as to score in the final minutes of play after several long forward passes had put them in a scoring position. Again against Glen Ridge, the West Orange eleven ran into unexpectedly stiff competition, winning only by a score of 13-12; how- ever, West Orange had the ball on Glen Ridge's two yard line when the whistle blew. The outstanding feature of the game was loe Lavoritano's Page One Hundred and Ten [p534 eighty-seven yard run. Four days later West Orange encountered the unde- feated Roselle team and held them to a scoreless tie; the game, a thriller, was marked by several goal line stands by each team. The following week in her skirmish with Belleville, West Orange cer- tainly seemed headed for defeat; however, with but two minutes to play, West Orange took possession of the ball sixty-five long yards from the goal line. West Orange then opened up with a passing attack, a play that is none too safe on an extremely wet day; however, she successfully completed several passes from Ernie Teed to Joe Ippolito, which landed the ball on the iifteen yard line. Then on the final play of the game, Teed surprised the entire Belleville team by passing to Eddie Ahr for the tying touchdown. West Orange met its first, and only, defeat in the traditional Thanksgiving Day battle with Columbia by a score of 12-0. This was, however, no dis- grace; for Columbia was represented by a well-trained and exceptionally heavy team. At a special football assembly, the following players were awarded var- sity letters: ends—Norman Jandoli, Joseph Ippolito, and Robert Beevers; tackles—William Lamb, David Carmeli, and Frank Sheehan; guards—Robert Dowd, Harry McDonough, Nicholas Perciante, and Fred Beevers; center— Arthur Schmidt; quarterback-1-William Quinn; halfbacks -Ernest Teed, Ed- ward Ahr, Joseph Lavoritano, and Jacob Seebach; fullback—Phil Olivero; and the managers—Robert Iden and George Stickle. Gold footballs, awarded to the seniors who had been on the squad three years and who had made the varsity, were won by Ernest Teed, Edward Ahr, Joseph Ippolito, and the man- agers, George Stickle and Robert Iden. William Lamb, Arthur Schmidt, and William Quinn, all seniors, won their gold footballs last year. Although several valuable players are leaving the squad, the chances for a winning team in 1934 are good. Coach Evans will be able to rely on eleven players who won their varsity letters this year as well as on many fine players from this year's Junior Varsity, a number of whom saw varsity action this year. Coach Haydn Evans and Assistant Coach Marcus Rankin should be given credit for the time and energy, which they so freely gave to the squad; and for the patience and support they showed in training the individuals of the squad. The scores: West Orange Millburn .........................13- 0 West Orange Roselle Park .....................12- 0 West Orange East Orange.........................12- 0 West Orange Summit .......................... 7- 0 West Orange Orange ........................... 7- 6 West Orange Glen Ridge .......................13-12 West Orange Roselle........................... 0- 0 West Orange Belleville ........................ 6- 6 West Orange Columbia ......................... 0-12 TOTAL SCORES West Orange Opponents ........................70-36 Page Otie Hundred and Eleven VARSITY BASKETBALL THE 1934 West Orange Basketball Team, playing under the direction of a new coach and employing an unfamiliar Western system of attack, ex- perienced a number of disappointments during the season, losing seven out of fourteen games. Of course, Coach Rankin's illness at the beginning of the season handicapped the team severely although Coach Evans kindly sub- stituted for him. In the first game of the season, we made a poor start and lost to Bloom- field by the score of 38-28; but in the second game, we defeated Belleville in a thriller to the tune of 21-20. We then lost consecutively to Irvington by the unbalanced score of 39 to 23, to Glen Ridge in a forfeit, and to Orange in a very close game by the score of 31 to 28. However, West Orange celebrated the return of Coach Rankin by ekeing out a 25-24 victory over Columbia, a victory which was gained largely through the efforts of versatile Phil Olivero, v ho caged two baskets within thirty seconds. After losing the next game to Morristown by a 36-26 score, the Maroon and White Quintet, in their longest winning streak of the season, defeated the alumni by the overwhelming score of 57 to 31, overcame Belleville by a close 23-22 score, and conquered Colum- bia by the decisive score of 22 to 12. In the following game, Glen Ridge a second time triumphed over the Cowboys 37-32. However, the West Orange boys avenged themselves against one of their opponents, who had handed them a defeat, when they, in their next game, won a 25-24 victory over Ir- Page One Hundred and Twelve vington. In the next to the last game of the season, the Mountaineers easily submerged a poor East Orange team by the unusually large score of 43-12; but closed the season by losing to an exceptionally strong Orange team 26 to 13. Although surpassed by the undefeated Orange Tornadoes, the West Orange five captured second place in the mythical Inter-Oranges League. As usual, the West Orange team entered the State Tournament; but this year they entered as a defender of the Northern New Jersey Group 3 Cham- pionship. The first opponent, the same as that of last year, Linden, was de- feated by the Rankin-coached quintet to the tune of 26-24. Unfortunately, the second opponent was the undefeated Union County champion team of Sum- mit High School. The Cowboys fought furiously throughout the game, but when the gun was fired, the West Orange team had lost by a 30-25 score. Coach Rankin, who so generously gave his time and energy every day during the season to the basketball team, should be complimented on the fine work he accomplished. The outlook for the oncoming season is very bright although the varsity squad will lose: Chief Danbeck—center; Captain Joe Rutan—guard; Charley Swan—forward. The returning veterans will be: our high scoring and competent forwards- Dave Carmeli and Ed. Smuda, our very capable and promising substitute center--Ray Slapp, and our small but mighty guard—Phil Olivero. Also, Coach Rankin will have such second team stars as: Bill Torlucci, Ray Force, Lou Belott, Joe Calacuri, Red Mc- Guire, Joe Mann, Lefty Henrichs, George Hickey, Dan Entwistle, and Porter Evans. Those who received first team blocks were: Adolph Danbeck, Ray Slapp, Dave Carmeli, Ed Smuda, Charley Swan, Joe Rutan, Phil Olivero, and Man- ager Leonard Goldin. The players who were presented with second team blocks were: Joe Mann, Joe Calacuri, Lou Bilott, Ray Force, Bill Hinrichs, James McGuire, Bill Torlucci, and Steward Sanders, next year's manager.

This year, the number participating has been exceedingly large. Whether this is due to the increased number of pupils in the school or to the increased interest in sports is not known; but, whatever the reason may be, the many girls playing are improving so rapidly that they will soon rival the trained varsity players on the boys' team. The mythical championship, last year, was captured by the juniors, the present senior class, for the first time; for never before were seniors defeated by the members of a lower class. Miss Ada Scheffer, the physical education instructor, has devoted three afternoons a week to girls' basketball practice, Monday to the sophomores, Tuesday to the juniors, and Thursday to the seniors. Because the senior play and the midyear examinations were scheduled later this year than in pre- vious years, the girls were forced to start practice late in the season; and, therefore, their interclass games will not be played until the Spring Term. The senior girls who played during their sophomore year are: Forwards—Doris Leitch, Margaret Rathsam, Martha Knowles. Centers—Betty Neudeck, Peggy Meyers. Side Centers—Doris Hallam, Elizabeth Miller. Guards—Mary Meeker, Virginia Francis. Although many of the seniors retained the same positions in the junior year as they had held in their sophomore year, there were a few changes. The girls played in the following positions: Forwards—Doris Leitch, Margaret Rathsam, Dorothy Rathbun. Centers—Betty Neudeck, Peggy Meyers. Side Centers—Mildred Jamison, Doris Hallam. Guards—Betty Hosier, Florence Pfister, Elizabeth Miller. As yet, the senior team has not been picked this year; but one can, from watching the girls practice, give a general forecast of those who may be chosen. Perhaps the girls may hold the following positions: Forwards—Doris Leitch, Margaret Rathsam, Eleanor Wyczalek. Centers—Betty Neudeck, Peggy Meyers. Side Centers—Mildred Jamison, Eleanor Heintz. Guards—Elizabeth Miller, Doris Hallam. Pu,He One Hundred and Fifteen FAREWELL Memories— Adrift like wisps of dove-breast smoke, Puffed, now and then, by a playful breeze, Steal into our quiet moments, Like sweet, old melodies. Memories— Sweet in their sadness, painfully sweet, Woven from yesterday's joys and griefs, Blend into a lovely, touching whole, Like rare, old symphonies. AS the twinkling dewdrops on the forest leaves fade before the rising sun, so do our high school days fade before the dawn of a new opportunity. And yet, in spite of the joy which fills our hearts as we gaze, subdued though emboldened, at the alluring prospect, we look back in wistfulness at all that we must leave. To how many unforgettable associations we must now bid farewell I In the outside world there will be no teachers to give us aid and guidance, nor a Mr. Strong and a Mr. Reimherr to give us advice and constructive crit- icism. And, too, we must say good-bye to the understanding office girls, our school mothers on the third floor, the patient souls in the lunchroom, the janitors, and all others who have helped to make our work more easy and our days more happy. But most difficult of all is the separation from old classmates, old friends, old pals . Our eyes grow misty when we think of leaving the place in which we've worked and played together so long, and we realize rather jealously that others will come to take our places. But the memory, the spirit, the ideals of our school will live on always in our hearts, growing as we grow in know- ledge and beauty of character. And now that we have attained our goal, graduation, we are ready to strive on to another higher one—success in life. To that end, what we have derived from our school careers will fortify and animate us. We must use our present knowledge to learn more, our present character to nourish our souls till they blossom like fruitful gardens. That our motto The reward of a thing well done is to have done it is true, we sincerely believe; but stop there we shall not. Instead, while we turn our faces toward the rising sun, let us say with the immortal Browning: A man's reach should exceed his grasp, Else what's a heaven for? Page One Hundred and Sixteen LITTLE BOOK Tis the fruit of our efforts With a hope that it please; 'Tis the sum of our longing, Culled with labor—not ease. We've gleaned youth from corridors, gym floors, and class, Stumbling, tumbling, mumbling en masse — Now, prisoned on paper for stark, public view To show everyone what we seniors can do. Here lie our ambitions in black and yrhite print; Of our dreams and ideals, there's not more than a hint. We must leave this sweet shelter to make each one come true, To practice our lore in a world, wide and new. Two paltry dollars for covers of green— What a gay slice of life you will find in between 1 What a message of courage to help keep us brave I What immeasurable wealth for the sum that we gavel When Time brings its worries, its troubles, its care, Come forth, little book, we will look, if we dare. And we'll dare if our ideals are still fresh as youth, And we've kept to the right, rocky pathway of truth. So laugh at the prophecy, And our dreams unfulfilled. Life is sweet, if you meet— Every problem God willed.
