Senior Published Annually By Class of West Orange High School West Orange, New Jersey VOLUME EIGHT Class Colors GREEN AND WHITE Class Floiver GARDENIA Henry Huselton JUST as a light but persistent rain washes away the hard clay surface, disclosing the rich soil beneath, so your patient kind- ness has dissolved our rude exter- iors and laid bare our true char- acters. To you, Henry Huselton, who have uncovered many of the mysteries in the realm of physics and chemistry to us, and who in your twenty years of teaching in this school have inspired and in- fluenced for good so many West Orange boys and girls, we pay our homage in dedicating this book, the 1938 West-O-Ranger.” C A TION FOREWORD Deriving the ranger idea from the sobriquet, the cowboys, as used by the sportswriters in describing our strug- gling, straining gridiron warriors, and from the connotation of the name of our annuals—the West-O-Ranger—we have chosen as the theme of our 1938 Year Book the glamorous West with its barren deserts and lush farm lands; its dusty plains and dank forests; its highest peak and lowest valley; its glar- ing, yellow sunlight, and soft purple shadows; its gentle broncos and its bucking flivers. Just as the galloping hoofs, the popping six” guns, the wild whoops, the multicolored blankets, the red earthen pottery, the ten gallon” hats, all are memories of the lost and legendary land of the Forty-niners,” so this annual is a memory of our school life, a true reflection of the students and their activities. scv °°v PAGE 155 IN MEMORIAM HARRY A. GRETTON whose glorious mind on high? in hearts we leave behind die! —Campbell If I had thought thou could’st have died, I might not weep for thee; But I forgot, when by thy side, That thou could’st mortal be; It never through my mind had passed, That time would e’er be o’er When I on thee should look my last, And thou should’st smile no more! —Charles Wolfe Page Six mm mm mkm fH Mi fgpgi ■ « ?

RUSSELL REINHART During my high school career, I have been haunted by a grim desire to learn what makes West Orange High School tick, and now I have found my answer—The Board of Education. The Board, consisting of four learned men and one wise woman, takes care of such matters as the finances of the school. They investigate the records of the teachers and strive to find out whether they are sage enough to impart knowledge to our young minds. All the business con- cerning school land is turned over to them. When a child becomes involved in trouble with the school authorities, the Board seeks to find out how this matter can be cleared up. Above all, they arc always inter- ested in the welfare of each and every student. Concerned only with advanced educational methods, seeking only the best for our schools, and striving always to lighten the problems of our system, they are aptly entitled The Brain Trust of West Orange Youth.” Page Sixteen Members of the Faculty SOLOMON C.

Come, freshen your spirits, old friends, At our sparkling, bubbling springs; Gather new vigor from them, New courage to fight and to win; Come drink at the fountain of youth, You who would right the world's wrong; For in us lie the waters of youth. We are the youth that is running A race, never ending, with life. Throw us the flickering torch; It is we alone who can save Its moribund gleam from the grave — A gory and horrible grave — Quenched by the blood of mankind. Throw us the fluttering brand; In us lies the strength to relight — In us, the flame of the torch. We are the youth of the world; We are its Atlas. On us Rests the fortune or doom of the world; It is ours to hold high or let fall. Have faith, for our shoulders are strong; We’ll bear up this bloody old world And pass it on cleaner and brighter Than ever it’s been before, For we are the youth, the Atlas, To carry this weary old world. We can do it because we believe In ourselves, in the triumph of good; We’ve contributed much to your trials, But our hearts are not shuttered and cold. We seem to be thoughtless and giddy, But that’s only our age; give us time. And we shall emerge your champions, The hope and the strength of the world. —Joan Mathiasen Pjge Turnty-tuo Last Roundup of the Steer Class r johsS01 The Chosen Few Although we, the Class of 38, may not be the most dignified, nor the most studious class to be graduated, we pride ourselves that we are the first class to have over three hundred members. Our three years in high school have been happy and pleasant because of the excellent leadership of our adviser and the class officers, especially the officers of the present school year. Harry Doty, though the duties of president are heavy on his shoulders, is an all around man. He piles up the subscriptions for the Year Book, takes part in the Clio programs, was a pirate in the senior play, and, to round out his versatility, is a member of the inter-class sport team. Lou Falcone, the vice-president, is best known as the mainstay of our football team. Now his steady dependability has made him an indispensable member of the basketball team. Lou says his only drawback is his snoring in his sleep. Bob Johnson, our secretary, is the scholarly member of the officers. Standing high on the Honor i bekt vow’ll A 1 Treasurer HARRY DOTY President Page Twenty-four Officers of 1938 MISS 0. DREW Adviser Roll, he receives some of his ability in math from operating the cash register in the cafeteria. The treasurer, Al Fowler, interested mainly in sports, has been one of the football managers for the past three years. He would like us to know that in his sophomore year he was Not the water boy for the team. As usual, the senior class has been beset by many problems; and, as usual, these problems owe the fact that they were solved at all, in large measure, to Miss George Drew, class adviser. The many mountain- ous stumbling blocks, which threatened to mar our last and best year on the ranch,” shrank to the proportions of mere molehills when sub- jected to her clear vision and faithful guidance. Also of invaluable assistance to the senior class through its year- book were Mr. Taylor, who had the unpleasant but important job of guarding the greenbacks, and Miss Hergt, whose advice helped make the book an artistic success.

Page Ninety-two The Yearlings They Must be Obeyed ROHKRT BOYNTON T reasurer The Junior Class organized early in the year and elected a fine set of officers to carry on for them. With such a well- chosen governing group, the juniors should do big things this year. Edgar Phinney, a star both on the grid- iron and on the basketball court, took the helm of his class as president. An all-round athlete and good sport, he is well-liked by all. Oscar Hoffman, who is described by everyone as a swell guy, takes charge of the meeting when Ed is absent. Besides his flare for mechanical drawing, this intelli- gent vice-president is also an avid phila- telist (stamp collector to you sophomores). When William Aur, Billy to you, turns on his personality plus, he certainly has umph a plenty. Although generally seen talking, he, too, has a decided weakness for pigskins—and women. The record of the Page Ninety-four Class Officers of 1939 activities of the Junior Class is kept by Billy, its secretary. Robert Boynton, better known as Bob, who was president of his class last year, was liked so well that he was elected treas- urer of his class. Besides being well-known for his skill at football (he’s going to fill Lou Falcone’s position) we hear that he is pleasing, i-n-d-e-e-d, to the ladies. No discussion of the junior class is com- plete without some mention of its adviser, Mrs. Dorothy T. Nock. As the juniors be- gin to become aware of the fact that they are old enough to have class problems, they darken the door of room 201 in ever in- creasing numbers. They are sure here of a welcome and a sympathetic ear. Here is a training field seldom given credit as such, for it is here that the future seniors learn the difficult business of class government. As to how well they learn it, why, just look at the present senior class! MRS. I). NOCK Adviser Pa$e Ninety-five J UNIOR Senior Successors Last year they were sophomores, timorous and coy. Next year they’ll be seniors, bold and self-confident. But this year they’re juniors, sportive and gay, no longer down-trodden sophomores nor yet serious- minded seniors. They have still to meet loathed Melancholy.” They’ve heard their principal’s stories at least once. They know now that the school is not so harsh as at first it seemed. Some members of the Class of ’39 know how to handle a ball, foot and basket both. Others have learned how to manipulate their tongues and have gained their principal’s eternal love by debating. Their subject this year, you may remember, was compulsory military training for America’s youth. The speakers seemed to be better than the topic. Next year’s seniors will not suffer from a dearth of good tongue twisters. Page Ninety-six There exists in the Junior Honor Roll an interesting phenomenon —two of the three high honor students are boys. This strange inversion of the usual order of things may be taken in different ways. We leave the deductions to you. After the election of officers, the important event of the Junior Year is the Prom. Not until the treasurer begins to collect dues do the juniors begin to become aware of their importance and at the same time begin to feel poor. (This is nothing compared to the way they’ll feel when they’re seniors.) Finally the Prom is over, and the juniors justifiably cherish a sense of achievement. Then comes the end of the year. Of course, they’re sorry to see the seniors go; but what a senior class they’ll be next year!

They perform what few duties come their way under the guidance of Miss Brcisch. This year, as in the past, the able leaders chosen are known in other fields about the school, such as, sports, honor roll, and clubs. The president, Frank Behrle, commonly referred to as Bill, was one of the best football players West Orange had during the year’s school season; and he is now often found on the basketball court. His best known talent is his ability to acquire black eyes. Another football hero, who was chosen to represent the class as vice-president, is Jack Fox. From hurried observation, we have learned Page Otic Hundred that he is quite a lady’s man although parties seem to be the bane of his life. The efficient note-taker of the class is Wilton Estes, a lad famed for always being wherever you happen to be glancing and for his noon-day excursions about the auditorium. Harold Wagner, the money-changer of the sophomores, is the small but mighty cheerleader of the football season. He is usually seen in the auditorium with the secretary — not studying. This choice of officers would seem to indicate an unusually strong love of athletics on the part of the Class of ’40. Of course, every class is partial to its gridiron heroes; but not every class has athletes who can pass enough work to become candidates for official positions. The Class of ’40 seems already to have the earmarks of a future greatness despite its youth and inexperience. The Class of ’39 is certainly fortunate if it can count already on a worthy successor. It remains to be seen, however, whether the Class of ’40 will be able to justify these hopes. PdRc One Hundred One SOPHOMORE Babies Must Play Roving through the halls, large numbers of disobedient rascals, just loosed from apron strings, may be seen each day. These are the infants of West Orange High. Having for years been disciplined and explicitly shown the right from the wrong, the sophomores arc more than slightly bewildered when left to fight for themselves. Having come from all sections of town, they have only one thing in common— being in school together. The time it takes for the kids” to get acquainted and to get into mischief amazes the teachers as well as us who are decidedly grown-up and never write on the auditorium black- Page One Hundred Two boards or the desks in the double-study hall. Most of all we arc baffled by the way in which these children manage to get by ’ (mainly by the skin of their teeth) their school work. They do it somehow, and we leave it to the future classes of West Orange to discover just how sophomores ever grow into stately seniors. Even though they seem to be all nonsense to us, the young ones made a creditable showing in debating. In sports, too, they claimed their share of honor through the fine playing on the football squad of Frank Behrle and Clement I urey. Their high honor students are Gertrude Kingdon, Doris Rawstrom, and Charles Reimer. The sophomores are, we must admit, prominent participants in school activities and not just playful children.

Loath to Leave Some strange passion for the building, the teachers, or perhaps even homework brings back each year a few of last year’s graduates. The reason for their return is un- fathomable. They are an unusual breed, wandering around the school, all-knowing, un- consciously belittling the seniors somewhat, but appearing to enjoy themselves. Some, with the kind of school spirit every Senior Class longs for and seldom finds, have worked for the Class of '38 as if it were their own; others have made known their presence by raising riot in room 316. Just how they do chi we couldn’t say. No doubt, however, Mr. Thomas could be more explicit. Among those who were not loath to leave, several went to the following institutions of learning: COLUMBIA William Christie Fred Dil ell Robert Postiglione Robert Witten MONTCLAIR Gloria Nardicllo Barbara Stauffer BUCKNELL Janet Clayton Ann Lowther BEAVER Dorothy Donohoe Anita Schwitters Sydney Tompkins Shirley Rosen NEWARK ENGINEERING Harry Braun Francis McPhillips N.

While we just sit and wonder At the weariness of rest. I had written down suggestions As to studying for exams; And when everything was over.

Ta c One Hundred Thirteen Dear Diary Editor's Note: Nine years ago some valuable papers were discovered in the secret drawers of a desk belonging to the late Miss X-----------. The papers, written in Miss X---------’s own peculiar system of shorthand, consisted of her life work—a diary. After eight years of hard labor, students have at last deciphered her shorthand; and the diary is ready for publication. From the vast amount of material contained in the diary, 1 have culled out only a few of the most interesting notes which Miss X---- made during her senior year ( 1937-1938) in West Orange High School. These choice selections I have set down here so that the world may steal a glimpse into the innermost thoughts and experiences of the diarist. Sept. 9, 1937—First day of school! Everyone loves to say how he hates returning to school in September; but strangely enough, 1 never saw so many beaming faces or heard so much gay chatter as 1 did today. Gee! It’s good to get back. Sept. 13—Guess what, Diary. My Virgil Class is composed of fifteen girls and Bob Brady. Who says Bob isn’t brave? Mrs. Nock addresses the class as girls and Bob.” The male in the class was telling us about a poem which one of his poetically inclined relatives made up: Good afternoon, girls and Bob, I think I’ll stop and scratch my knob.” Methinks that Virgil at last has a rival in the field of poetry. Oct.l—We lost our first football game last Saturday, but today we reaped our reward. That defeat did something to the kids in school. Why, I never heard such cheering in my life as I heard in the pep meeting today. The air was charged with electricity. The rooting made my spine tingle. Never let anybody tell you that there isn’t any school spirit in W. O. H. S., Diary old pal. Oct. 10—This morning the assembly council treated us to a Professor Quiz Program in commemoration of Columbus Day. And believe you me, Diary, it certainly is easy to digest Columbus when he’s fed to you in small pieces, instead of big chunks. 1 hope the assembly council has more such surprises up its sleeve. In introducing the Professor, the chairman called him a praiseworthy paragon, perfect pupil, powerful potentate, and pedantic pedagogue.” I felt like yelling out, You forgot pickled pepper.” That’s where you laugh, Diary. Oct. 25—Well, our annual magazine campaign is over! Mr. Reimherr tells us it was a success. Just another case where W. O. H. S. shows its school spirit. Hans Keitel sold the most subscriptions. He’s got what it takes! If Hans talked about Saturday Evening Posts as well as he talks about oboes, and if he was as eloquent with his customers as he is with the girls, it’s small wonder he won the contest! Nov. 18—I’m going to let you in on a little joke I heard today, Diary. Alberta Scherholz had the pious Aeneas” in a mighty tough spot today. She was translating the part of the “Aeneid” in which Aeneas sails into a bay within sight of land. I guess Page Our Hutulred Fourteen the fjet that land was in sight proved too much for Alberta. She was so excited that before we could stop her she had Aeneas hitching his ship to an overhanging sandbar. Perhaps Alberta has uncovered the eighth wonder of the world! Dec. 5—Well, Captain Applejack has been presented and acclaimed! The characters, the costumes, the plot, the scenery, the parrot—everything was just what it should have been—perfect. To me, the highlight was Applejack’s rendition of Fifteen Men on a Deadman’s Chest. Incidentally, Polly must have become jealous of Dick’s good baritone, because last night in the second act our feathered friend of footlight fame put up a howl while Dick was speaking. Excuse the sarcasm, Diary; but Polly’s vocal efforts sounded like a mixture of the cry of the tobacco auctioneer and the German Club’s interpretation of Schnit .elbank.” The gang of cutthroats on the stage certainly put everyone in a swashbuckling mood. Stir your stumps, scum!— What? Oh no, I don’t mean you, Diary. I was merely trying out a little of Captain Applejack’s vocabulary in private. Jan. 27—I went into room 102 this morning. Diary; and there, scrawled across the blackboard, I saw'—well, I didn’t know exactly W'hat. It might have been the outline of anything from a grasshopper to a European country. Of this one thing I wras sure: Mr. Rankin wras letting his artistic nature run away with him. This was probably a piece of modern art—perhaps Mr. Rankin’s interpretation of the coming of spring. But this—I was later informed—w'as only one of Coach Rankin’s diagrams of a tricky basketball play. All I can say is: If there are any spies from foreign basket- ball teams inspecting Coach Rankin's blackboard, they won’t get any more information from the coach’s artistic efforts than I did. Feb. 18—Ouch, my cars! Mr. Terwilliger’s biology lab class was serenaded yester- day afternoon by what is commonly called a jam session. Jam is right! Bci Mir Bist Du Schocn came blasting up the ventilator from the Latin room. How did such music get through there,” says Mr. Terwilliger. Why even the hibernating salamander, who has been keeping Morpheus company since November—even he started wagging his tail in time to the music. All scientific thoughts fled from the teacher’s mind, and it w'as feared that he w-as going to lapse into The Big Apple. But in a few minutes he regained his composure and was ready for action. How to stop the racket was the question. He thought of attaching a container of tear gas to the ventilator, but that wouldn’t have stopped the music. It wrould only have let us in for a dose of blues music —sobs and all. When the lab students were dismissed, the teacher was still sitting among his test tubes tearing his hair and racking his brain for a possible solution to the unbear- able situation. However, this morning I saw all the jam sessioners walking around— still sound in body. It looks as if Professor Terwilligcr’s scientific mind failed him when it came to canning the jam session! March 3—Well, it came in like a lion, all right! (Oops my skirts). As for the roaring, the parents supplied plenty of chat last night w'hen they saw the Spanish Club play at the P. T. A. meeting. One of the purposes of the play, as the announcer said. Page One 11 n ml red Fifteen was to teach our W. O. H. S. Casanovas the real Spanish technique at love-making. After Signor Rappicano’s violent breakage of that bit of Spanish pottery in last night’s performance, I would say that Spanish love-making is a mighty expensive game if vase breaking is considered a necessary part of it! March 16— Ach, Du Licber Augustien”—da, da, da, di—Don’t mind me, Diary. I’m definitely in one of my German moods. The German Club tread the boards this morning in assembly. And incidentally, don’t fall for that stuff about the Spaniards being the world’s greatest Romeos. This morning’s play convinced me that the Herr Romeo Schnalpenhcimers don’t need any lessons from the Signor Romeo Duron’s. No Sir-c-c-e! However, try as they would, the Germans could not convince the audience that there was beer in them thar mugs. We got a big kick out of watching them feign at beer drinking, but they didn’t get a kick out of it because there just wasn’t any kick in it! (If you know what I mean.) April 7—The talk which Dr. Kingdon gave us in assembly yesterday set us all agog. By the time he had stopped speaking, the Tom Sawyers and Becky Thatchers in the audience were fairly itching with a violent attack of spring fever. Everyone was yearning for a stroll in the cow country: wading through babbling brooks (no, not books), caking one's shoes with the mud of the hillside, searching for grabs under wet logs—you know, the L’Allegroish sort of thing. But upon awaking this morning, we found the ground covered with snow. Disgusting! Not so, Di? All our dreams of yesteryear are fled. We waded through snow drifts on the way to school, soaked our shoes (and the kitchen floor) with April snow, and searched among the cob webs in the cellar for ye olde snowc shovele. That settled me. Spring? L’Ailegro? Bah! I’ve crawled back into my II Penscroso shell. No more false alarms for me! April 13—The assembly council treated us to some new song slides this morning. Wc murdered the Russian National Anthem. (The Russians won’t mind that; they themselves are doing a little murdering right now.) But say, did we go to town on Three Blind Mice!’’ I guess that’s about our speed. Speaking of mice and men, Miss Moses found three blind baby mice nestled among the costumes in the stock room. Let’s hope the mice didn’t pamper their stomachs to such an extent that the hero of next year’s senior play will have to make his debut in a Swiss-cheese-likc sort of rig. June 3—The senior girls have a problem on their hands. Diary. The question is— if graduation be held outside, what should the girls wear to fortify themselves in case the rains descend and the floods come? After the wet graduation of the class of ’37, don't be surprised. Diary, if you sec this year’s class file out onto the field in boats and raincoats. Then we’d, at least, have the distinction of being a practical minded class. Following last year’s dousing, the girls looked like a bunch of Rockettes—with their shrunken skirts tickling their knees. I certainly don’t want to look like a ballet dancer at my graduation. Therefore, I advocate that the girls wear either bathing suits, trousers, or pre-shrunken dresses. You know our motto! The better prepared, the more secure.” Eh what, Diary? —Ruth Ci.ochi-ssy I'age One Hundred Sixteen r W':i i iiL'vri n «W V :-ra?E MM ,. ■ fffffcr:; f V •' raft v v.yR $ if MM Daring, reckless, the tense riders '$0J ce,. then grovelling. ! ..

The Rodeo The warm sun of late summer beat down on the sixty boys who were on the football field exercising. On these boys rested the hopes of the West Orange football fans. As the first game with Millburn approached, tension increased; for six of the regulars, who had held key positions the year before, had left school. There was, indeed, some doubt as to the strength of our boys; still, we felt certain that they would give their best for the school. Since the Millburn game is usually just a practice game, the Cowboys seemed confident of victory. The game, as an opener, did not strike much terror to the supporters. Yet on a sunny Saturday afternoon came the first upset of our 1937 career. During the second quarter, the ball was uncovered by West Orange, snatched by Millburn, and carried 60 yards for a touchdown. The final score gave West Orange 0, Millburn 6. The pep meeting preceding the Paterson Central game was the most bombastic send-off any team ever received. It seemed to instill new courage. Page One Hundred Eighteen First How: Reinhart, Moriarity.

The feeling grew that it might be possible for the boys to go through the season with only the one blemish on their record. The next game with the Blue and Red of East Orange supported that contention. Our eleven met the invading team like a sweeping flood, rolling up another shutout. According to the scoreboard, the Mountaineers were the superior team by 21 points. The next contestant who was to test our strength was Roselle Park. From beginning to end it was a hotly fought struggle; but West Orange, owing to the speed and stamina of its boys, managed to ring up a victory of 13 to 6. The next Saturday brought with it such inclement weather that the game had to be postponed until the following Monday. Orange, always a bitter rival, was downed by a steady drive and a fast effective aerial attack. They seemed dazzled by the secondary defense work of Falcone and Flynn. The 21 to 0 score ballooned our hopes for a defeat over Columbia. Only three games remained before the traditional Thanksgiving clash with the Columbia Cougars. The boys’ confidence had so increased that the prospect of defeat appeared only on the remote horizon. Westfield brought that dim spectre no nearer. Their blue-jerseyed gladiators were unable to stem the maroon tide of a 13 to nothing victory. The Maroon and White was invincible. Plainfield, inaccessible from West Orange, thought perhaps the long tedious journey would tire our team enough that they might be the second victors of Page One Hundred Nineteen the season. Indeed, the trip did exhaust our boys, for they had not the ability that day to tally more than 19 points. Belleville with their blue and yellow horizontally striped jerseys were tangible reminders of the worth of honesty. Because the ball seemed to hide somehow in or around those stripes, the mountain boys had to spend too much time looking for it to score more than 12 points. With seven victories to our credit the possibility of defeat at the hands of Columbia did no longer occur to us. Of course, the Cougars were a powerful team, but the game was to be almost a grudge battle through which the Mountaineers might not come unscathed, but, certainly, victorious. How- ever, in an evenly played game, Columbia on a lucky break, the referee calling interference, was able to ring down the curtain on the 1937 football season by defeating our Cowboys 7 to 0. Through thick and thin our able skipper, Lou Falcone, guided our football craft thru a successful season, having lost only the opening and closing games along with two forfeits caused by Sal Blumette’s ineligibility. With the Stierle Falcone Fox Pennington Pd c One HnnJreJ Twenty handing-out of the sheepskins in June, our grid mentor, Coach Ashley, will lose all but two of his first string backfield and five of his line. The few promising juniors and sophomores who will take the place of our graduating players are: for Captain Lou Falcone, Bob Boynton, a husky, smashing junior certain to rise to Lou’s stellar heights; for diminutive Ed Stierle, Walter Moriority able to fill the position; for quarter- back Bill Fox, Bill Behrle, inexperienced but promising. Only Ed Phinney will remain at his post. With these substitutions the Moun- taineers may again go thru another sweeping, successful season. One wonders what the third season of Coach Ashley’s Maroon and White career will be.

Starting the season with only one first term man from the previous year, who was later declared ineligible, Coach Rankin placed a te rn on the court that won ten games of a fifteen game schedule. Included in this record were double victories over Columbia and Belleville, single wins over Morristown, Westfield, and Kearny, while the series with Orange, East Orange, and Irvington were divided. The boys were rewarded for this fine accomplish- ment by receiving a bid to the annual state tournament. In Inter-Oranges’ competition this year, there were many close battles. The first time West Orange encountered Orange the Mountaineers were nosed out by two suc- cessful foul shots in a hectic last quarter, however, the tables were turned in the next Fowler O’Reilly PtiRC une Hundred Tucn y-hio M a succi First Row: tjuinn, Cullen.

With a double victory over Columbia and a heartbreaking defeat to East Orange in between, the next contest, the second East Orange game, was all-important. In order to reverse the score of the previous game with East Orange, West Orange had to overcome a big first period deficit. This they did, and the seasonal Oranges’ warfare ended with West Orange’s and Orange’s sharing first place jointly. Preparing for the tournament tilt, the Cowboys crushed Kearny without much resistance. West Orange then started the triple header at the Elizabeth Armory against the Colonials. The magnitude of the drillshed court, called by many veteran observers the largest in the state, hampered the Mountaineers’ pick-off and screen plays in the offense. Unable to penetrate successfully into orthodox scoring areas, they were forced to resort to lengthy set shots, which were off line. They scored but seven points in the first half to Morristown’s sixteen. The second half showed a reversal of form, West Orange’s hooping fifteen points to the winner’s eleven, but failing to win the game. Thus, before a crowd of over four thousand spectators, the Cowboys, after putting up a valiant fight, lost their initial tournament game to Morristown, 27-22. And so ended the 1938 basketball season with Pilot Marcus Rankin well pleased with the team's record. The men instrumental in West Orange’s success were Captain Lou Falcone, Ted Masucci, Don Fowler, Ed Phinnev, Tom O’Reilly, and Bob Davies. In Lou Falcone, West Orange had an able leader whose height was a valuable asset in his fine defensive play.

Don Fowler, lanky center, had as his best offensive play a deadly pivot shot. His height was also invaluable to the defensive play of the Mountaineers. Big, rangy Ed Phinncy occupied one of the forward posts. His height and ability to cut around” an opponent were dominant in the Cowboys’ cause. Tom O’Reilly and Bob Davies contributed some expert floor play and passing to the team. Members of the 1938 basketball team to receive first team letters were Captain Falcone, Masucci, Fowler, Phinney, O’Reilly, Davies, Krasner, Shanks, and Manager William Conroy. Donald Fowler and Bob Davies were further honored by being given places on the All-Oranges’ Team.

Under the able guidance of Coaches Rankin and Ashley, Captain Bill Mathesius was able to steer the craft of the Jayvees through the perils of fifteen encounters, seven of which were victories. In spite of the fact that the record is none too impressive, the sharing of top honors in the mythical Inter-Oranges’ League bears out the contention that, when pressed hard, the boys put their hearts and souls into the contest and really show great promise for the future. The slow, methodical attack of Coach Rankin's system along with the aggressiveness and precision of the team was the keynote of the 1938 Junior Varsity Season. Since there were no outstanding hoopers, cooperation and teamwork were necessary to provide the much needed spark. Comprising this squad were Captain Mathesius, Bill Behrle, Clem Furey, Bud Woclflc, Pierson, Ben Schlcnger, Phil Cullen, and Jack Fox. West Orange, in Billy Mathesius, has a player whose deadly shots and speedy de- fensive play make him as potent on the defense as on the offense. They are counting on Mathesius to make the varsity next year. Tall Bill Behrle is coming along fast and, with his added experience, will prob- ably be found playing with the varsity next season. Rugged Clem Furey lost some time this season because of ineligibility; but next year his height will be a valuable asset to the first team for the entire season, we hope. Phil Cullen aided his teammates with his good passing and team play. Bud Woefle is also slated for a position on the varsity as is Ben Schlcnger, who with his accurate long shots, adds offen- sive power to the team. Members of the Junior Varsity, award- ed letters and rewards, were Mathesius, Behrle, Furey, Woefle, Fox, Schlcnger, and Pierson.

But although the sight of a smooth, sweeping swing of a club is a welcome sight to most of us, the rules of our home course, the Rock Spring Country Club, prohibit the presence of a gallery on the fairways. For this reason, golf does not play a very important part in our school activities. If the swish of the golf club, the matchless rhythm of the player, and the green resilient turf are pleasing to us, the swift flight of the baseball, the pounding feet of the trackmen, and the thudding whacks of the boxers arc even more pleasing; for they are indicative that not the top-notchers but the common boy is out enjoying himself by participating in our class and intramural sports. These contests, coming after basketball season, start with a bang, carrying every boy, big or small, husky or puny, lean or fat, along in their path. Various gym teams, giving those boys interested in various games a chance to play, compete keenly in each sport. And thus as the speeding months bring deep blue skies and balmy air—weather suited to the use of the great outdoors, a cramped and crowded youth feels the urge to rush out into the warming sunshine, into a new land, long awaited for through dreary, wintry weeks. The chatter and the excited shouts from the outfield are borne on the breezes to the envious inmates of the school; and joyous crowds flock to the athletic field to encourage the players. As an outlet for the pent-up impulses of nature, these competitions have been originated. Page One Hundred Twenty six First Row: Smith. Laing, Keitel, Rinehart, Smith. MudH, Lord, King, Simpson.

BOUNCERS There is, in this august establishment, a group of boys who are anything but august. In fact, they bend and bounce and wiggle and twist and slide and land, sometimes, with a dull resounding thud. They perform all manner of strange and bewildering antics. Often in their excitement they send the mats skidding across the stage, but these resolute tumblers immediately drag them back for more heartless pounding and thumping. Then come the parallel bars. Now the feats of these bouncers become truly alarming. The sturdy bars bend and creak as if crying out for mercy. Riding the bars successfully is no easy matter; but by far the most difficult feat of all—indeed, it’s tremendously difficult—is the attempt, the heroic attempt, they make to persuade their shirts and their trunks not to part company.

A bell—and silence abdicates, although we are supposed to come into the auditorium quietly and sedately. We must not make any noise, or we won’t be allowed to have another pep meeting. Of course, the fact that it’s Friday afternoon makes no difference. We must not appear glad that school is over for the week. Now we are seated. We hardly dare whisper. Then the band begins to play, and whispers pass unnoticed; but still we must sit quietly, totally unmoved by Sousa. Then that energetic Jack-in-the-box, the captain of the cheerleaders, dashes onto the stage, followed by his imitative comrades, shouting curt commands. Suddenly we are galvanized into action. We set the air reverberating”—you know the rest. Then— silence, or what is supposed to be silence. We must again be quiet, orderly pupils. What power these tireless youths hold in their competent hands! They are the only group in the school which fulfills our loftiest desire—to open our mouths and yell.

Os | Jenson Fun, Form, and Fitness This year the girls of the high school have had opportunities to enter more after-school sports than usual under the leadership of iMrs. Muller, who came to us from Edison Junior High to take the place of Miss Scheffer, the present Mrs. Terry. Soccer was the first game played this year after school. It was the first attempt of many of the girls, but they ended the season with only a few dry throats, bruises, and sore muscles. As usually happens, the Seniors de- feated the underclassmen, but by only a goal or two. While the girls, exhausted from soccer, were resting, the others played field ball, a com- bination of such strenuous games as football and soccer. The second tournament was that of volley ball, although the games were not played between the classes (sophomores, juniors, and seniors). The wearing of the red jackets was new this year and saved a lot of confusion between the teams. A few of the teams were superstitious and believed that the winning team was the one that wore the jackets, but that belief was broken when the winner of one of the tournaments was without the jackets. There were so many girls who went out for basketball, the next game of the season, that one rule was laid down and kept with no Page One Hundred Thirty Top left: Butterfield; Top center: Smith.

For each class there were three teams that played against each other to decide the winning team of the class. The winning team then played the winning team of the other classes. We expect to have archery, baseball, and perhaps field hockey games in the spring. I’m sure there will be a large turnout, for there seem to be as many girls who like after-school sports as there are who like doing the Big Apple” in class, or watching Mrs. Muller do exercises.

They give us debates (they have no choice); perhaps they give us a speak- er. ’’Desiring this man’s art and that man’s scope,” the members of the Assembly Council lie constantly in wait to pounce upon unsuspecting citizens to drag them to our platform. The speakers run the gamut from fingerprinting to Thanksgiving r.nd the Pilgrims. Yet strangely enough, every and each one has time to tell a joke — often many, sometimes few, but always one at least. Often we like these speakers (especially when they talk too long); but we are to be interested, not amused. Occasionally the Council’s plans go wrong. How lucky we were once! The speaker couldn’t come; they asked a teacher to pinch hit. Small in stature, mighty of mind, he spoke the best of all. A casual observer can see that the members of the council have improved their programs yearly. Their Armistice Day and Christmas programs will not be soon for- gotten. Even during the wild disorder at the beginning of the school year, they always managed to concoct a program, and will, we know, again. Page One Hundred Thirty-three Fowler Lyman Uruhii Brail v The school is the inkwell; the staff mem- bers arc the pens—but it takes more than pen and ink to produce a yearbook. Of course, there are the photography and advertising staffs, the typists and subscription managers, without which there would be no book. Nevertheless, given the pens, the ink, the pictures, the tap- ping of typewriter keys, the ever elusive money, there is still lacking, to convert this shapeless mass into a book, a vital element—inspiration. Perhaps the cameras won’t click, or the money becomes a little too scarce, or the type- writer keys stick; but worst of all and most frequent, the pens begin to scratch badly or refuse to write altogether. Then is the lack of inspiration felt keenly. Members of the staff are variously endowed with it, but the one never failing source to which flagging staff members repair is in room 202. Without the sponsor, the Annual Stafl is nothing; with her, the yearbook. What Makes the Wheels Go ’Round William Brewer Mccke Marks Hraily Editor-in-chief Business Manager Teacher Adviser Robert B.

Twenty-four hours before dress rehearsal there was an astonishing conglomeration of paint, electric fixtures, and pieces of apparently disconnected scenery. It seemed impossible that anything resembling an English drawing-room could, by any trick of fate, emerge. Then to the rescue came Jack-bf«all-trades Williams, who knew all, saw all, and said only enough to bring order out of chaos. Magically, with the brawn of the crew and the brain of the manager, there emerged one of the finest sets ever brought to the West Orange stage. You saw it; you should know. In the boys’ gym at the same time a dozen girls were struggling with the arrange- ment of the props. The task of collecting jewels for the treasure chest, chairs, end-tables, pillows, lamps, and even a real parrot seemed a task never to he completed. However, through the able direction of Joan Mathiasen, all the wants, even to the old-fashioned knitting basket, were procured. One crew of girls helped with the making up of the actors, and another gang set the stage for each act. Through the work of these girls the stage and actors were beautified. The f'cket salesman and the publicity committee also carried out their duties to the letter, for the house was sold out for both performances. A great part of the praise, bestowed on the play, rightfully belongs to the stage and prop crews and to the business committee. Page One Hu ml red Thirty-eight Lest We Forget Peace, and no lunger from its brazen portals The blast of War’s great organ shakes the skies! But beautiful as songs of the immortals, The holy melodies of love arise. —Henry Wadsworth Longili.low At Memorial Park, on November 11th, a stirring Armistice Day Program was given under the direction of Miss Grace Moses. Pour Senior High School girls, Dorothy Emerson, Marie Giordano, Helen Welsh, and Betty Long, as well as many Girl and Boy Scouts from the Junior High Schools, took part in the ceremony. Each scout placed a wreath on one of the trees which were planted a few years ago to honor those West Orange heroes who lost their lives in the World War. As the chimes from Saint Mark’s Church sounded the eleventh hour, a large wreath was placed on the monument; and the ceremony was concluded by the sounding of Taps” and the leaving of the park in silence. A very impressive program was also held in our own assembly on November 10th. After the opening exercises, led by Dorothy Dorer, the entire school joined in singing wartime songs. Jack Williams talked on The Meaning of Armistice Day” and John Nevins recited In Flanders Fields.” As taps were sounded and the flags were lowered, Marie Giordano read the West Orange Roll of Honor.” As each name was read, a senior girl, dressed in white and carrying a wreath, which was later placed on a tree in Memorial Park, marched slowly up the aisle and stood, with bowed head, on the platform. The students then quietly filed out of the auditorium. Right Side: Welsh, Junior High School Ik ■«. and «iris. Center: Snyder, Giordano. Look. Lett Side Junior High School I toy and girls.

The German Club offers its members an opportunity to look deeper into the life and customs of the German people. Guest speakers, student plays, movie excursions, and a trip to New York figure in the program. Nineteen thirty-eight marks a high spot in the annals of the German Circle. Twelve students, determined to obtain perfect German accents and Tyro- lean hats, have yielded to irresistible Wanderlust.

In furthering our aims we have had several speakers among whom was Mr. Butterfield, who spoke, not on music, but on the Paris Exposition of 1937. Miss Hannes, our co-sponsor with Miss Allen, told us of her experiences while spending her Junior Year of college in France. At our meeting, devoted to the province of Normandie, we were entertained by another guest speaker and also by a motion picture, showing life in Normandie. Aside from these educational topics, we have spent some time singing the songs and playing the games of the French young people. In February, we initiated the sophomores, more to our delight than theirs. The big event of the year was our spring trip to New York to visit the Normandie and to sec a French movie. Plans are now being made for a French Club dinner to be given in June. This get-together will bring our most successful year to a joyous close. We hope that the present juniors and sophomores will continue to improve our organization as time goes on, always keeping in mind the traditions and aims of Lc Circle Frattcais.

We cannot be quite certain whether the instructors or the language itself provides the fascination. Very likely it’s a combination. The meetings, in which most of the members take part, consist of interesting Spanish games and reports on the customs and life of Spain. Topics on the lives of Castilian painters have given a different touch to the programs this year. As might be expected, the best meeting was the one held at Christmas. On the day before the party each member drew a name of a fellow member. To the old custom of buying a ten cent present was added the originality of a homemade poem. Then during the meeting the unfortunate authors took turns squirming as their poetic efforts were read aloud. This hilarious interlude was followed by a discussion of Christmas customs, songs, and, of course, by the all-important refreshments. Pane One Hundred Vorty-tuo Exclusively Feminine President . .

DOROTHY DORER Treasurer MARGERY GILLETT Faculty Adviser MISS WILSON There is almost no activity which dees not owe some of its success to the Setuit. The Council seems to have a finger in every pie. How many boys, for instance, would go to the football games if there were no pretty girls to sell programs and candy? And how could these boys get along without that extra study period made possible occasionally by girls’ assemblies? Without it, three hundred graduates would be impossible—that’s certain. Doubtless, too, many girls would simply starve if it weren’t for the annual autumn wiener roast. And the school would certainly cease to smile if the frequently entertaining dances and heartening candy sales did not serve to remind it that there is still pleasure in a world too full of homework and unexpected tests. The wan faces that appear about the middle of January furnish ample proof of the desperate need for such a reminder. Yet, by no means, the least important is the Christmas program, for which the Setuit was in a measure responsible. There is also the Mother-Daughter Banquet, sponsored each spring by this organization, at which there is usually a prominent speaker. It is at this banquet that the sophomore girls learn, for the first time, what work really is. They do the serving. I Me Vt ctx.

Mr. Butterfield is once again serenading the orchestra in the Tuesday morning rehearsal. On one occasion he surpassed all his former accomplishments by whistling the intricate flute obligato to the ever popular ''Stars and Stripes Forever.” I’m afraid, however, that his vocal chords suffered a most severe strain when, in the early practicing stages of the Barber of Seville,” he was forced to fill the instrumcntless gaps with his baritone singing, for he has never been the same since. The ever popular music of Morning, Noon, and Night” will bring memories of the Senior Play at which the orchestra acquitted itself with flying colors. A great deal of credit for this appearance is due to the playing ability of the members, fourteen of whom were sent to the All-State Orchestra which played before the Teachers' Convention at Atlantic City. Through the orchestra, students are given an opportunity to express themselves musically, to gain experience in orchestra routine, and to come in contact with the music of great composers. first Violin Edward Anderson Leon Fink Charles Ingcls Ernst Keitel Donald Kidd Rose Landwirth Jeannette Sektberg Betty Smith Mildred Stern Walter Wallace Second Violin Isolde Byron Betty Baker David Duff Louise Kleinknccht Warren Wells Margaret Wciand Trombone Donald McCue Worrall Pedersen William Wannemacher Viola Janet DeCamp Raymond Kidd Grace Maguire Bass Violin Simon Frank Russell Thompson Tuba James Laing Baritone Richard Welsh Page One Hundred Forty-four .........................Orchestra Drum James Clegg Richard Gallagher Fred Gcrstncr Jean Hammel • Alton Kingman Walter Layton Kenneth Robertshaw Charles Robertshaw John Shaw Daniel Simon Edwin Rahiicr First Clarinet Karl Brawn Ray Brawn Dorothy Dorer Vida Mead Second Clarinet Kenneth Baldwin F.ric Ferguson Zclda Meiscl George Morrison Richard Pierson Robert Schlagintwcit Bennett Schlcngcr William Wertz Bassoon Gertrude Kingdon Hugh Lowcth First Trumpet Herbert Cohrs Clem Furcy William Reinhart Jean Roberts James Stephens Warwick Telfair Helen Welsh Second T ru nt pet Vivienne Brown Ruth Foley William Fund Dorothy Ober Edson Tennyson Robert Wallace Saxophone Charles Flynn Cello Russell Bruhn Jean Butterfield Janice Collins June Hofstcad Carolyn Mills Roy Smith Flute Doris Heick Betty Wagner French Horn David Mead Donald Simpson Piano Gordon Merriam Grace Sulpy Vera Thompson Emily Williams Oboe Hans Keitel Jean Latimer Librarians John Brennan Lucille Kennedy Managers Donald Buttcnbcrg Leonard Corvino Harding Finegan Daniel Kelly John Kenny Phillip Lannon Oliver Letts Donald Maguire Robert McGuirk Elmer Meline Thomas O’Reilly Thomas Regan Robert Schmidlin William Shank Wilson Shank Charles Sullivan Sidney Winans Page One Hundred Fort)-file Philo Marches On President . . .

It is our turn to gloat now. We can smile triumphantly, perhaps even a little condescendingly, when we think of the shining silver cup now in our possession. Yes, you have guessed it; at the Philo-Clio banquet last year WE were presented, for the first time in many years, with the much-desired reward, the cup over which an annual scholastic contest is waged between the two societies—and we are justly proud of our accomplishment. That is, however, by no means the only thing of which we have cause to be proud. No one can deny that the program Philo presented in the assembly on Lincoln’s Birthday was a great success. Many attributes of Lincoln’s character were told to the audience in brief, interesting, and unusual talks. Also the memorials, erected to Honest Abe,” were discussed; and facts, unknown before, were brought to light. In addition to these special features there is the bi-monthly meeting. In order to see what goes on every other Tuesday in the library, visit with us the second meeting held this year. It is Philo’s turn to preside. After the meeting has been called to order, and the minutes of the previous meeting have been read, the program chairman takes charge. She introduces members who speak, in turn, on the Origin and History of Thanksgiving” and on the lives of Hawthorne and James Russell Lowell. Several new members arc then initiated, to the entertainment of all; and after a brief biographical sketch of Longtcllow, the meeting is adjourned.

However, there are also hisses (very friendly ones I assure you); for each year there is competition as to which club will win the silver loving cup, the trophy which is awarded to the club with the higher scholastic average. Hence, only students main- taining at least a seventy-five percent average in their studies arc admitted to the societies. On club days when the bell rings, we hurry to the library, perhaps regretting the lack of a much needed study period, but also looking forward eagerly to an inter- esting meeting. As yet we have never been disappointed. After the business of the Row Tb A Weber. ®£ hta?en. m .

One of the most interesting meetings this year was the Christmas Party, which included a book report on The Other Wise Man,” a talk on The Hundred Neediest Cases in New York City,” and a report on conditions in Germany, the home of so many of our Christmas traditions.

Dinstnore a meeting at the Y. M. C. A. at which the boys indulge in athletics, such as, swimming, basketball, and pool. During the year, the Club has several social evenings and swim-dance parties to which girls are invited. The big event of the year, however, is the State Hi-Y Conference, which was held this year in Orange, New Jersey. The representative from the W. O. Club was Robert Popkcn. This boys’ paradise must, by its very nature, be popular. How wonder- ful to be able, once a week, to escape from the clutches of the opposite sex! What great peace must reign during those forbidden meetings! The members don’t have to worry about their appearance; they don’t have to bother about being artificially polite; they can deflate their chests in the privacy of mas- culine surroundings; in short, perfect freedom is theirs, and life may be en- joyed to the utmost. May be, but is it actually? No girl would care to admit that existence without her could be pleasing. Of course, any number of boys would insist that, while naturally their presence is always desired by every girl, no mere female, or rather the lack of one, is going to spoil their fun. But the fact that they admit this to be partially untrue by giving occasional dances testifies to their underlying integrity; for outside its small cost, the advantages are numerous and its influence upon the character of growing boys is excellent.

Whenever the library is spoken of, many of us think of it as a place to be regarded with awe—a place so quiet that one is almost afraid to whisper for fear of breaking the silence. It is not unnatural, therefore, that when the Library Council is mentioned, one should think of a solemn or serious group. Yet the Library Council is nothing of the sort. It is simply an organization composed of fourteen honor roll students who arc willing to devote one study period each day to helping Miss Bedell in the library. Most of us think that their only duty is to distribute the slips to the study halls; however, this is not true. They also keep order in the library during Miss Bedell’s absence, attend to various errands, and collect newspaper and magazine articles to be used for reference work. Occa- sionally they are asked to do additional work after school hours. The following pupils are on the Library Council for this year: Dorothy Bauer, William Bull, Phyllis Cavallo, Mary Alice Dudley, Simon Frank, Muriel Hooley, Vincent McDonald, John Rapicano, William Reinhart, Vera Reuter, Marion Richardson, Russell Stauffer, Muriel Swartz, and Arthur Thyrring.

When eight people take their places upon the stage to present a debate, one may be sure that the partakers have made an intensive study of their subject to be able to present sound arguments. Besides ability and ambition, the debaters must have a fair sense of sportsmanship to be able to accept gracefully a deci- sion in favor of the other team. Problems of national and international significance are clarified in the minds of the students in the audience because the industrious debaters present their facts so clearly and concisely that one cannot fail to understand them. The Junior Class was the first to present its debate this year. The question was: Resolved, that the United States should adopt compulsory military train- ing for boys between the ages of eighteen and twenty. Claire Peterson, Richard Seacord, Sidney Levin, and John Mullins supported the affirmative side; Vida Mead, Fred Bross, Jean Trabold, and Daniel Simon, the negative. Simon Frank was chairman. The victory went to the negative side which received two votes to the affirmative’s one. John Mullins was given two votes for best speaker; Daniel Simon received one vote. The affirmative team was coached by Miss McCloskcy; the negative, by Miss Peckham. Pnge One Hundred Fifty The Senior Class presented their debate March 9 and based it on the subject: Resolved, that all electric utilities should be govcrnmentally owned and oper- ated. Miss Weissenborn coached the affirmative; and Miss Bliss, the negative. Miss Weissenborn’s team was composed of Jean Butterfield, Jean Leavitt, Jean Roberts, and James Stevens; Miss Bliss , of Charles Stoner, Betty Smith, Robert Brady, and Thelma Neu- lin. Mary Van Veen was chairman. The affirmative team was victorious; and Jean Roberts, Thelma Neulin, and Robert Brady were chosen best speakers. The Sophomore Class debated the subject: Resolved that intercollegiate and interscholastic athletics, as at present conducted, are detrimental. The affirmative team, coached by Miss Breisch, was composed of Gertrude Kingdon, Elizabeth Connors, Constance Roose, and Betty Plume. Miss Goodyear coached the negative team, made up of Frances Sheeran, George Foster, Zelma Fund, and Peggy Blake. The affirmative team was victorious; and Franccss Sheeran, Gertrude Kingdon, and Betty Plume were chosen best speakers. Seated: Plume. Blake. Rooss, King.ion. Levin, Peterson, Mead, Simon.

From the multi-colored throng, crowding the gate of the athletic field, there suddenly emerges a line of maroon and white clad people, who march down the field to the tune of El Capitan.” This is our band which, resplendent in uniform, makes its appearance once a week during the football season. At the close of the season when it turns from football to classical music, the band can be heard any Wednesday after- noon practicing in the gym. If one were to peek in thru the gym door, he would see Mr. Butterfield wielding his baton as the clarinets try to play an especially difficult run. Despite the fact that the sounds floating out upon the air arc not always harmonious, the band is a great credit to the school.

As it rose to full view, its brilliant rays lent warmth to the crisp September morning. The rustic homesteads, dotting the hillsides and the plains, were permeated with an air of animation and bustle, for school days had again returned for the West Orangers; and many drifting cowboys” were being rounded-up to begin their three-year trek. From hill and dale, plateau anti plain, trudged the thundering herd” as it blazed the trail toward the imposing red- bricked edifice where the code was eddication or bust. As we rambunctious tenderfeet, the class of 1938, stalked into our new bunk- house, we were taken aback by the disorder and confusion which ruled supreme. However, we attempted to adapt ourselves to the bewildering surroundings and to stake our claims on the ranch. An occasional howdy here and there was exchanged between old pards as work started in full swing; and before many days had passed, we had been put into harness” and saddled down to the novel frontier life. Slowly the first few weeks rolled by, and we anxiously awaited the election of the Big Four who were to steer our course during the ensuing year. After a boisterous pow-wow, Charles Stoner was chosen boss of our pioneer company with Leonard Marks his right-hand man. Ruth Clochcssy was chosen to keep the accounts in the log, and Jean Roberts to store away the gold. However, before the new leaders had barely assumed command, a day of reckoning arrived. During those first few weeks, we had been in the making and many little red marks had been chalked up in the records; but now our first big test loomed before us. During those days every mountaineer had a hankerin’ for lamin’ as we went a browsin' in the fields of knowledge. However, after the ordeal was over, and we had made a notch in our records, we once more resumed routine work. All went well until early spring when the annual feud was revived. The pioneer orators waged a hard fought battle, matching wits and skill, until the one faction was sent down to defeat. Mr. Reimherr, foreman of the ranch, commended the greenies for their spirited performances. Spring then drifted into early summer, and soon we hung up our spurs, thus marking the termination of a memorable year on the range. We had entered the West Orange Mesa as a I'W 0 r lluHilml confused band of newcomers; but when wc broke camp at the end of the year, we knew that we had learned to understand and enjoy ranch life. The following September welcomed a stampede of full-fledged ''yearlings to the range. Fired with ambition and rarin to go , we buried the memories of the preceding year in the dust and seized the reins to guide ourselves into new territory. As we did so, we soon became conscious of ranch doings. As the new Junior Company, wc constituted an integral part in the various sports, clubs, and dances. These activities made the days pass quickly on the ranch, and before long balloting” again took place. This time Hill Fox assumed command with James Stephens ably assisting. Oliver Letts recorded the business, while Jack Williams guarded the chest of gold. As this new outfit prepared to go about their chores, the football season arrived with a bang. Among the Juniors who helped tote the ball over the line to wind up the successful season of 1936 were Louis Falcone, Charles Flynn, and Edward Stierle. At the same time, many active juniors were participating in club activities, setting the pace” for their followers. Soon cold winter winds began to blow about the bunk-house, bringing frost and ice and snow. Nevertheless, being snowed-in” did not hamper the preparation or dampen the enthusiasm for the mid-season hop—the high light of the year. Hill- billy socialites lassoed their best lassies to make rhythm on the range. Some weeks after the last strains of the music had died away, springtime came to the range, and the cold winter winds and snows gave way to warm breezes and the first blades of green grass. As warm weather returned to the plains, the yearly feudin’ was renewed. With a little more polish than the preceding year the Junior orators used their powerful persuadin’ tactics to win the argument. Soon after the dispute had been settled, the familiar strains of mountain-music again resounded through the halls of the ranch, and with a tinge of regret we bade our respected seniors a fond farewell and left behind us another year of pleasant memories. The mountaineers spent a restful summer, and then once again we returned to our ranch-house, this time as hard-riding, wild and woolly seniors! The class of ’38— the largest in the annals of the West Orange Range—gritted its teeth and determined to establish a record by being promoted to the last man. As the new senior leaders took control, they found their chores to be many. Harry Doty shouldered the responsi- Pagr One IlnrnlrcJ Fifty-in tn bility as captain with Louis Falcone ''lending a hand.” Albert Fowler tended the safe, and Robert Johnston kept track of the activities of the senior ranchers. Having pulled on our boots, we whipped into action as we roped the senior duties one by one—each one spurring us on to greater ambitions. The arrival of the ball-toting” season proved the seniors thoroughbreds” in cooperating with the team. The Pep Boys” who cheered the cowboys on to victory were Jack Williams, Leonard Marks, Allen Brewer, and Russell Bruhn. Again the seniors, with the assistance of their subordinates, proved their mettle” in making the subscription campaign a bang-up” success. Ere we had quite settled down to work, the annual show” arrived, demanding a heap” of attention. Warren Wells and Albert Fowler were the two trusty” rangers who managed the business affairs of the show. The cast of Captain Applejack” well merited laurels for their fine performances. Before the curtain had quite been rung down on the final act, the seniors took over the biggest chore—writing the Chronicle” of the West Orangers. Any gifted senior with new-fangled” ideas was promptly ambushed and corralled into secret meetings. During the long winter months, the trustworthy seniors plugged along to create so that their company might go down in history. As spring approached, and the task had been completed, we began to look back over the days behind us; for the Junior Prom had awakened us to the fact that our last year on the range was slipping by like grcased-lightning.” The arrival of spring did not raise our spirits to vibrant elevations as in the days when we had been early settlers.” We realized that we were soon to become the Vanishing Americans” of the West Orange Mesa with only far away memories of our happy carefree days of youth. Then one evening the soft music of the Senior Farewell filled the air as we took leave of our friends and advisers. Slowly the subdued Thundering Herd” retraced those steps of three years before, venturing forth into the world with knowledge and experience behind them. —Thelma Neulin I axe One Hundred Vifty-eixbl Round-Up Time It was round-up time at West Orange Ranch, and the cowboys were corralling all the BULLS and SAVAGE steers. Since the farmhands were occupied and busy, Barbara Jackson, a guest at the ranch, kindly offered to ride to town on her DOTY old horse for the COOKE in order to get some HAGUES and a PECK of potatoes for dinner. She was a WISE business woman and, therefore, purchased the food for a good PRICE; but she was disgusted when she received her change back in NICHOLSON dimes. After she was DUNN shopping, she hit the trail back to the ranch. On the way home she saw a BIRD that looked like a EACONE hovering over the prairie. Later a FOX, chased by a WOLF, ran right BEYER. And so you see just how wild the country was in those days. But now LETTS return to the ranch, where we shall find Foreman Russ Thompson raising CAINE because he wanted to KOPP the prize at the county fair with his prize pig, which has just given birth to QUINNs. He took off his CAPEN angrily threw it on the floor. Fve made too many BETZ that I could win first prize to draw out now,” he MOWELLed, waking up Jean Roberts, who was NODING on the DAVENPORT. You GOWARD!” she cried. ”How dare you yell at me!” If you weren’t such a LACEY girl, you wouldn’t be sleeping at this time of day,” he rebuked her. The argument might have continued; but Jean jumped up, crying, The cook is letting the dinner BYRNE,” and ran to the kitchen. Russ heard a crash; he, too, hurrying to the kitchen found that the cook in his excitement had broken a plate. We ARNOT hiring you to break dishes,” shouted Russ. Heaven KNOWLES what’s getting into you. Well, don’t stand there! Get the BRUHN and sweep it up.” Just then Barbara came riding over the HILL and up to the ranch house. Jean opened the door. O’HARE you arc. Dinner’s ready. Come in and WALSH your hands and face.” You’d better do what she says if you don’t WANNEMACHER angry,” Russ warned as moodily, Barbara was about to turn toward the stable. You’re LAYTON you know it,” Jean continued as they sat down to eat. Russ, give Barbara a KUPFERER coffee,” Jean then commanded. I forgot to put any on the table. I get so nervous at round-up time.” —Raymond Kidd Paw One Unwind Fifty-nine Life on the Range West-O-Ranch .... Big boss man , . , Sheriff—(I. Ketchum) Cow punchers . Dogies ..... Yearlings ....

Mr. Thomas Miss Bliss (always rushing around) —Ruth Clochessv Page Otic Hundred Sixty News Item A News Item from the Herald Tribune, May 10, 195 8 While rummaging in the attic last month, Mrs. Astor Van Rensclaer Vanderbilt, nee Miss Barbara Jackson of the West Orange and Wellfleet Jacksons, uncovered in a trunkful of old clothes a dusty, cracked volume—its pages smeared with autographs. Shaking off the dust, she carried it to a window. Imagine my surprise, she laughed, when I discovered it to be the ’38 Year Book of West Orange High School. 1 hadn’t seen it for years. That evening at one of her famous before-the-theatre dinners, Mrs. Vanderbilt handed the book casually to an old classmate, Miss Charlotte Bailey, who soon had the other guests so engrossed, too, that in order to get a look at it some even missed the first act of Cold-Blooded, brilliant Ruth Engeman’s current success at the Maxine Elliot Theatre. James Stephens, ace reporter for the Times, who with his wife Jeanne Hogan, arc frequent guests at the Vanderbilts, rushed over to me tremendously excited. It’s a scoop. he cried; society woman finds old book filled with signatures of people now prominent all over the world. Zowie! With that he wiped his brow. Ever on the alert for novel attractions in the publishing world, Mr. Robert Brady, head of the Brady Better Books Corporation, added calmly, I think I have an idea. Hurriedly lie sought out M. A. Dudley, author of the best seller Ovcrbrook. Seated on a blue velvet Louis Quinze sofa, for half an hour they talked, as isolated as if they had been on a raft in the Pacific. Moreover, even at the theatre they scribbled to each other on programs, at times exchanging astonished glances. Miss Dudley once protested, But that’s too soon! It will take me perfect ages to get an inspiration! Nonsense,” Brady scoffed; you aren’t going to let the idea cool, are you? Listen, I haven’t been in this business for twenty years for nothing; I know what will inspire you. We’ll settle for a hundred thousand? More scribbling; no more clews. A month has passed. Today Mr. Brady sent for me. Do you remember the year book Mrs. Vanderbilt found? he asked. I nodded. I must say it represented an unusual set of graduates. Have you ever heard of so many celebrities from one class? Just listen to this list: Hans and Ernest Keitel, experts on Nazi affairs, who ran into a little trouble with Hitler recently; Jack Williams, Broadway producer of 'Tip-Top' and 'Rah-Rah-Rah; Ruth Clochessy, the lyric Pd%r Oar HnnJrfid Sixfy-OHc soprano who sang at the White House a few days ago; cigar-toting United States Senator Harry Doty; Donald Simpson, Philharmonic French hornist, and his wife Doris Heick, who have popularized horn-flute duets; Leonard Marks, Jr., ambassador to the Court of St. James; Charlotte Meier, winner of the amateur golf title; Fred Gerstner, racing record-holder at Daytona, especially noted for turning a corner at 15 0 miles a minute; Grcacian Ospenson, Vogue’s fashion editor; Allen brewer, noted commercial artist; Russell Bruhn, Davis Cup finalist; Joan Mathiasen, communist agitator; Fred Cooke, world light-weight champion; Evelyn Britton, singer with Bill Reinhart’s orchestra at the Versailles; Russell Thompson, eminent Washington economist; June Hofstead, Olympic swimmer; and—!” With a slight shrug, he settled into his chair. Sounds like a 'Who’s Who,’ doesn’t it? That’s what I thought, so I persuaded Mary Alice Dudley to get up a book, a sort of collection of biographies, which will interest the public. Here, take a look at that.” He leaned over to shove a typewritten pile toward me. Settled comfortably in an enveloping leather armchair of Mr. Brady’s handsome rust and green private office, decorated by Helen Hamilton of Sloane’s, I read for several minutes. The warm afternoon sun lazily patterned the carpet in geometric designs. A distant, monotonous typing set the publisher to dozing. Brrrr-ing! . . . Bang!” The sudden bell had frightened me, but the report turned by heart over. 1 pictured Arthur Caine’s, in the next office, murdering his secretary Alma Barnett; but the bell somehow didn’t fit into the picture—and Miss Barnett, I knew, was too good a secretary for anyone to want to shoot. Besides, screams generally precede murders; but there had been no scream only my own muffled cry. Finally, trembling, I turned toward the door—and with a sigh of relief confronted that debonair play-boy, that chivalrous man-about-town, that acme of politeness—William I.yle Bull, Jr. Esquire. Hello, folks,” he grinned. Ed Stierle and his chauffeur are waiting for me down- stairs; we have a luncheon date at Wall Street with Charles Stoner and James Stillwell. Anyway I just came to tell you that we’re digging up a little supper party tonight. Can you come? I haven’t seen Kay Stinson yet because she’s been modeling all morning for 'Vogue;' but I telephoned to Margaret Upham at her Long Island estate, and she and Janet Smith are coming in with Bill Gucrry after Bill’s polo match. Say, can you get hold of Marcie Weber?” Sorry,” I said, but she and Thelma Neulin left for Europe yesterday to make a survey of rural conditions in the Alps. You can count me out too; I have work to do.” ”Oh, no one works nowadays. It’s passe. Just look at Bob here!” Bill turned around with a sweeping gesture. At the same instant, while murmuring, Good-bye, I’ll tell you tomorrow what I think of it,” I deftly gathered up the papers and fled. From then until now I have been reading steadily—every word increasing my interest. There was the thrilling story of Jean Robert’s experiments with radium, and Page Otic Un nJrcd Sixty-two of Shirley Plume’s flying the Atlantic in her super tri-motor monoplane; there was the mention of Richard Lyman, drama critic for the New York Times; Mrs. Louis Falcone (Doris Winkclman), one of America’s ten best dressed women; Martin Beyer, who made a fortune selling old automobile parts, and his bodyguard, Armand Ferrara; Roxy Sclitto and Eleanor Pclose, Rockettes; Oliver Letts, the radio comedian; and Jean Butterfield, Saks Fifth Avenue’s Paris buyer, who has been dashing about Europe with the Western oil-magnate, James Laing. And now the afternoon has waned; lights have flashed on; supper time has come and gone; and still I am reading. How concise are Miss Dudley’s descriptions! How clear and vivid, her language, such as, when she writes, In a svelte, modern apartment overlooking Central Park, I found the world famous big-game hunter and popular lecturer, Walter Grub, talking to his biographer, Ray Kidd. Zebra upholstered arm- chairs squatted next to the severe fireplace. A mirror covered an entire left wall; on the right was a jungle mural with monkeys chattering and flamingos hunting fish. Numerous South African ashtrays waited on side tables; crude native figures strutted atop the bookcase. As 1 entered, a lion skin, complete with tail, tripped me. 1 lost my balance, then my poise, but recovered both in time to meet the distinguished sportsman.” And as 1 still read on, munching a sandwich, I marvel at the thrilling experiences described, at anecdote after anecdote, all of them stories of success. Just at random, take this for example. After his sensational fifty yard run for a touchdown at the Colgate-Cornell game, Lou Falcone was being rubbed down in the locker room when an excited man thrust his way into the steaming place. 'Sign here,’ ” he commanded Falcone, handing him a printed sheet. Lou, thinking him only another autograph hound, wrote his name. Snatching the paper away, and slapping him vigorously on the back, talented scout John Nevins shouted, ‘Congratulations!’ You are now under contract to Warren Wells of Expensive Films, Limited, Hollywood’s biggest movie company. In six months Mr. Wells will make you—its newest find—the sensation of America.’ ” This prophecy outdid itself. Today Falcone is the greatest box-office attraction since Clark Gable. Mist is rolling in from the sea, making the world unreal, a dream. Garbage men are banging down the street as if it were noon instead of midnight. Reluctantly 1 have laid aside the last paper and rested my head on my hand. With closed eyes, I have been concentrating. What do I think of the book? Mr. Brady, now f am ready to give you my verdict—another success is on your hands.” —Dorothy Bauer Paxe Otic HiinJrcJ Sixty-three 1. Don’t work too hard. 2. Music, please. 3. Ah, that sea breeze. 4.

Pjrc Otic Hundred Sixty-four Page One HiinJrcJ Sixty-fire Ranch Ditties “Whoopee, Ti, Yi, Yo” As I was asittin’ one morn’ in assembly, I heard Mr. Reimherr in discourse so long— His head was throwed back, and his bell was aclangin’. And in a grave voice he was singing this song: Chorus: Whoopee ti, yi, yo, if you get any red marks, It’s your misfortune and none of my own. Time’s gettin’ short; the roundup’s acomin’, You’d better get busy or your fate you’ll bemoan! Some of you fellows come here just for pleasure, But that’s where you get it most awfully wrong. You have no idea of the trouble you give us, For we’ve got to guide you and drive you along. It’s early in June that we roundup the seniors; We mark ’em, and grade ’em, and prick their conceit; We give them a send-off—a big celebration, From then on they’ll have to stand on their own feet. And after the roundup, when the ’shootin’ is over, And all of you know the fate that is yours. Just give us a thought—who so long with you struggled— And think of the high school when far from its doors! ’ —Ruth Ci ochfssy “Home on the Range” O give me a school where no homework’s a rule, And chemistry’s nothing but play; Where seldom is heard a single French word, And the pupils have fun all the day. Chorus: School, school in a dream, Where chemistry’s nothing but play; Where seldom is heard a single French word. And the pupils have fun all the day. Where offenders set free—no detention there’ll be. Where we never have to write themes; But no. I’d not change, the West Orange Range For thousands of new fangled schemes. Chorus: Yet how often at night when my lamp’s burning bright. And my homework has yet to be done, Have I sat there quite dazed, completely amazed That I ever thought school so much fun. Chorus: —Shirley Plumi PjRe One HittiJreJ Sixty-six The Last Fling Twas late evening. A strong north wind drove sharp rain through the evergreens, making them glisten coldly as the light beams pierced the branches. In sharp contrast to this bitter loneliness outside was the warm joviality in the gymnasium. In a temporary corral, the orchestra members, dressed as cowboys, were vigorously strumming their guitars; huge logs (even though electric) were burning gaily, permeating the room with a soft, warm light. Hanging here and there from pegs on the walls were pieces of harness and discarded saddles, and from the ceiling, two great wagon wheels, illuminating the whole room. Standing invitingly in various corners and parts of the room were rustic benches. The atmosphere was so western that one could almost hear the coyotes howling at the pale moon, and the cold prairie winds rattling the sage brush. As the music ceased, the shag-ers divided, preparing for a specialty. Harry Doty, president of the class of '38, walked into the midst of the now hushed crowd. Cowboys and cowgirls, he said, parting is such sweet sorrow that we do not mind greatly or lament loudly that we are parting soon. However, as a token of our friendship and appreciation for your cooperation in making our senior projects a success, we arc leaving you the following articles which we have held dear. With a flourish he unrolled the gilt edged scroll and read: First, we are leaving several carloads of thanks to Miss Hilson with instructions that she may keep the cars when the thanks are used up. To the class of '39, we give the West O’Ranch and wish the juniors as pleasant a stay on it as we have had. For Mr. Strong we leave several maxim silencers for use on the many motor- cycles that put-put-put-bang outside his office window. For those who dislike poetry we have left ear muffs; and for those who like it, front seats for special use in bunk 315. We give the keys of Charlotte Meier’s car to Lois (if Charlotte hasn’t hidden them in some obscure coyote’s hole.) 'Missy’ Howell’s beer jacket is for Dorothy Proft because it is much easier to read India ink print than pink and blue embroidery. For Simon Frank, we leave Don MacEntee’s stature so that Simon will know how the other half lives. Barbara Jackson’s serene composure is left for Carlita Alford who simply must be a little bit dignified as a senior. For 'Bud' Kingman, the equestrian, we have reserved Allen Brewer’s ability to draw as well as ride horses. Pa,iff Our llutiJrnl Sixty ’Jinny' Mulier leaves a little fuzz from her angora sweaters to Virginia Rirwin so that Virginia can have lots more angora sweaters. Richard Lyman leaves his aces—all of them—to a junior boy who wants to be an ace in ’39’s senior play. A few of Thelma Nuelin’s 95 s are for any adventurous soul who attempts to carry ’solid' and 'ehem' his senior year. A juicy, red, big apple (no worm in it) is for Mrs. Mueller who would rather eat than do one. Russell Bruhn refuses to buy any more film, but he has consented to leave his camera to Leon Fink who is enthusiastically inclined in that direction. Jean Roberts passes her wink to 'Liz’ Meyers who has a twinkle in her eyes, but no wink. For Terry Me Guirk, Bob Brady leaves his pull. You'll need it, Terry, to keep out of trouble. Ken Baldwin is to become the proud possessor of Walter Mueller's sail boat, which will presently be transported from Lake Mohawk to Fayson. Ruth Engeman and Evelyn Britton leave their secret of success in friendship— together we stand; divided we fall—to Betty Eunson and Suzanne Haviland. I guess it's not a secret any more. For Miss Manley, Doris Heick leaves Betty Baker to take attendance in sixth period study. The extensive French vocabulary of Mary Van Veen is left to Mildred Stern who might need it in case there is another Paris Exposition. Miss Weissenborn’s ’Little Bolshevik’ leaves her radical views to any rebellious junior who dislikes grammar. Lush, I mean Walter Grub, leaves his butler’s gait to John Waldeck who looks as though he could 'buttle’ very well. For 'Marg’ Gillct, Grace Anderson leaves her giggle which is in a different key from 'Margy’s. Since Shirley Lewis has her Johnny, she has consented to leave ’Oily’ to 'GIo’ Holmes. Helen Hamilton leaves several of her numerous bracelets to Claire Peterson whose extended arm should have adornment. So that Miss Allen will feel at ease, Warren Wells has given Walter Menzel his subscription to the Daily to read in French Class. Johnny Nevins gives his deep voice to soprano toned Russell Stauffer. Never mind, Russell, you’ll get there. Mary Martelli leaves her well used typewriter to Barbara Watt who will probably use it some more next year. Because it’s ’sissyish, ’Bruddy’ Stierle is willing to give his blonde curly hair to any junior girl who can survive the rush. Bill Fox’s tackling ability is handed down to brother Jackie who shows promise of carrying the family name to supreme heights. Go to it, Jackie!

Doris Winklemann leaves her looks, personality, and what not to anyone who will use them to her best advantage as ’Winkie’ has. Ruth Engeman leaves her ability to write poetry to many of the silent lovers in the junior class, particularly Thelma Swenson. Johnny Brennan leaves his ability to copy homework to Harry Cahill. James Keenan leaves his blush to any of the juniors who happen to have Mr. Thomas for English next year, especially Chuck Popkin. Hazel Beamcr leaves her reserved energy to Gert Kingdon who’ll surely need it before she leaves school. Al Fowler leaves his money matters to Phil Pendcrgast who is following readily in his footsteps. Albert Harrington leaves his satorial excellence to John Voorhees whose stock of bright colored socks and checked jackets may need replenishing. Jane Leavitt’s steady hand in 'chcm lab’ is for a scientifically minded junior who might otherwise blow up 306. Walter Layton leaves his bright red tie to Ned Stehl as a delicate contrast to those fascinating collars. Dick Gallagher leaves his drums to Dan Simon to keep the band rhythm steady. Russell Thompson leaves his long legs to Scotty Gallagher so he can get a new slant on life. Donna Bailey leaves her big, brown eyes to Dorothy Stevens for the sake of variety—the spice of life. Ted Marks’ ministerial voice is for Phillip Falctto—to assure the Spanish Club of an eloquent mouthpiece. Captain Applejack’s pirates leave the cutlasses to Miss Bedell so that she can efficiently protect the window shades. Dorothy Schmidt regretfully parts with her loquacity as a reinforcement for Dorothy Michel. Jean Burgess leaves her desire to referee a senior basketball game to Mary Linden who likes to rule supreme. Alma Barnett leaves her secretarial position to Jean Wilson, who is a natural successor. Lou Falcone leaves his personality, popularity, and athletic record to Terry McGuirk, an ardent admirer. Rerolling the scroll, Harry presented it to Edgar Phinncy, as John Waldeck rushed into the center shouting, ’’Let’s give three cheers for the class of ’38;” and amidst the ‘Rah! Rah!
