Although gasoline, rubber, and food are less plentiful on the home front, victories are more plentiful cn the war fronts. It is natural that thoughts of war are uppermost in all our minds, and so we have made the theme of our book that most powerful part of our forces, the airplane. As we read the newspapers or listen to the radio, we hear of the attacks that our planes have made cn the Fortress Europe and on the Japanese Island bases; and we wish that we could actively join the fight. Though our spirit is behind the man behind the motor and the gun, we must first complete our present job, which is here at home. In the following pages we shall show the boys and girls of the graduating class of 1944 finishing their passive duties and preparing to step into the active life of a citizen of a nation at war. Many of our boys have left this class to join the armed forces; and many more of us, both boys and girls, will enter the services soon after being graduated. The rest of us must work to supply the fighters with equip- ment or study to be better able to do the job awaiting us. Our care-free high school days are over. Upon leafing through this book in future years, we may laugh at our young selves; but we shall be glad to have a souvenir of these happy times which soon are gone, but never leave our memories. '■ N MR FREDE”'« w.iuam nmmm c 6 IN MEMORIAM The class of 1944 dedicates this yearbook to the memory of Frederick Reimherr, who has served this community for twenty-six years as the prin- cipal of West Orange High School. A native of Waterford, N. Y., he was graduated from Water- ford High School in 1902, taught in a rural one- room schcolhousc for a year, and was graduated from Colgate University in 1907. He was princi- pal of Waterbury High School in Vermont from 1907 until he came to West Orange in 1918. From Columbia, Mr. Reimherr won his M.A. degree, and the Columbia Lion, a citation given an- nually to an outstanding citizen of New Jersey who has brought honor to the University. He was a member of the New Jersey School Masters Club and of the New Jersey Council of Education. Be- cause of his interest in collecting histories and biographies, he became an authority on American Colonial History. A member of the Congregational Church, Mr. Rcimherr's favorite passages of Scrip- ture were Paul’s Ode to Charity (I Cor. 13), and the Nineteenth Psalm: Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be ac- ceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeemer. Mr. Reimherr’s first six years as principal of West Orange High School were spent in the Gas- ton Street Building with only two hundred stu- dents in grades eight to twelve inclusive. Then the eighth graders had the advantage of becoming accustomed to the tempo and environment of senior high school life before taking on its scholas- tic responsibilities. The period of growth and in- dustrial expansion in West Orange after World War I was accompanied by a rise in population which necessitated the building of the present high school in 1924. This year, in the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Classes, there arc nearly a thou- sand students. During his entire educational ca- reer, Mr. Reimherr has had to contend with crowded building accommodations and war-time conditions. Although some new subjects have been added and athletics have increased in importance, the curriculum of West Orange High School has changed only slightly since 1918. For twenty-six years Mr. Reimherr has empha- sized these fundamental precepts in regard to the school: that school is a job to be taken seriously; that a school should be conservative and sound both in subjects offered and methods adopted; and that the student is of prime importance. He has striven tirelessly to keep this high school an educa- tional institution—a policy which has borne fruit in the fact that more and more West Orange stu- dents have continued their education. Because of the number of college questionnaires in 1922, it be- came necessary to rate the succeeding senior classes. Under Mr. Reimherr’s restraining influence, West Orange High School has not rushed into untried educaticnal experiments. Each student has been given a well-coordinated schedule according to his ability, promise, and need, as well as the best pos- sible guidance in courses and aptitudes. Mr. Reim- herr was so highly respected 'by college officials throughout the country that his recommendation was regarded as final for any prospective student. Never wanting to be what he termed an of- fice principal, Mr. Reimherr kept in close con- tact with the student body. He did not believe in being aloof, and was always easily accessible to any student who wanted to come to him for advice or guidance. He was a stern disciplinarian—always friendly, but never familiar. Every high school boy or girl in the graduating class of 1944 bows his head in reverence before the memory of Fred- erick Reimherr—a great, altruistic educator.

Page 12 West Orange High School, built in 1924 to accommo- date the increased population of the town, has since served approximately six thousand students. Through our turbu- lent high school years, we seniors have learned the hard lessons of life by personal experience. We have formed worthwhile friendships which time alone can eradicate.

West Orange High School stands for democracy and the equality of man. Page 14 Our rambling castle of a school opens its windows to sunshine and air. We shall always remember it as the place where we were taught to open the windows of our minds to beauty and knowledge. Page 15 Page 16 MR. STRONG Although Solomon C. Strong, the Superintendent of West Orange Schools, is rarely seen walking thru the halls of our high school, or speaking to the student body from our platform, his work is evident and warmly welcomed. It is he who decrees holidays and half-sessions when rationing takes the time of our teachers from the classroom— or when blessed Nature covers Orange Mountain with a storm for- bidding sleet that even the De Camp Bus Company dares not vio- late. Not only docs Mr. Strong at- tend to the thousand and one prob- lems arising in the high school, in the junior high schools, and the grammar schools; but he has also given of himself unstintingly to aid the war effort. At our football games he becomes as red and excited as any bombastic senior in cheering the West Orange Cowboys on to victory. We Seniors of 1944 express to him our heartfelt gratitude. Through the maturity which senior responsibilities bring, we have learned to appreciate and respect all that Mr. Strong has done for us— individually and collectively—from our first day in kindergarten until graduation. Page 18 Mr. Reimherr Ever since Mr. Reimherr came to West Orange in 1918, he has been principal of West Orange High. He has come to be con- sidered an integral part of our school. In the hall he sits reading his morning paper. In the auditorium he reads I Corinthians 13, his favorite chapter; in the office he gives friendly counsel to teacher and stu- dent alike; in the classroom he assists in the absence of the teacher. Mr. Reimherr has devoted all his time and energy to our school —the school is his life and he is the school. For the last six years Vice-Prin- cipal of West Orange High School, Jesse Taylor has ably assisted Mr. Reimherr in the administration of school policies. He attended Wes- ley Collegiate Institute, a prep school in Dover, Delaware, from 1915 to 1919. Having been grad- uated from Wesleyan in 1923, Mr. Taylor then earned his M.A. de- gree in school administration at Co- lumbia. For the next three years he taught mathematics and coached athletics in Islip, Long Island; he came to West Orange in 1926 as a chemistry teacher; in 1938 he was promoted to his present position of Vice-Principal. We students rarely pause to consider the added clerical work which the war has brought to our reduced office staff; consequent- ly, we often fail to remember and appreciate the countless hours spent by Mr. Taylor in the various work of the school. His genuine interest, his sincerity, and his sympathetic and wise counsel have won him the admiration and respect of the whole student body. Mr. Jesse I.

The bombing of Pearl Harbor, which came in our Sophomore Year, brought with it many changes: the auxiliary courses of the V-Program”; the Red Cross Sewing and Knitting Classes; the toughening Commando Tactics in gym; the conservation program, making us glad for our shorter tests and exams; the many new teachers and substitutes in place of those who entered the service; and most of all the loss of many of our boys who joined the armed forces. However, despite these many disruptions, we have tried to carry on our school’s best traditions. Under the able leadership of our class officers, we seniors of 1944 have endeavored to maintain the high standards set by preceding classes. Bob Milone, our president, is very dependable, intelligent, and well liked. He has been outstanding in scholarship as well as on the football field. The vice-president, Norman Carlson, has ably assisted Bob and has made a name for himself on the basketball court. For secretary, we needed an orderly, painstaking person. Nyla Day just naturally filled this position. Dick Simon, who is a conscientious and all-around good fellow, is our treasurer. wcHA D SIMON Treasure nyla £ aY Secretary Page 27 MARY ANASTAS “Mar “Good nature shines in her face. Glee Club 4.

Though skittish concerning the attitude of the student body toward the team and faced with a squad small in number, the team pulled itself together after a first game defeat to win the support of the entire school and compile an enviable record for future teams to maintain. There have been better teams and more outstand- ing players in this school, but few have given the spectators the last minute thrills that the ’43 squad gave them in the East Orange, Westfield, and Co- lumbia games this year. Several of the boys who supplied these thrills donned a West Orange uniform for the last time on Thanksgiving day. These seniors have helped set a mark for the 1944 eleven to shoot at. Boyd Moreland, who held down an end posi- tion, gave a steady and dependable performance on both offense and defense all season in spite of a serious shoulder injury. Boyd’s good football sense helped the entire squad in many tough situations. Another standout in the Cowboys’ forward wall was Fred Kluge, 180 pound tackle. Fred’s fine blocking made possible many of the West Orange offensive drives, and his hard defensive charge raised havoc with Cowboy opponents in every game this year. Art F Ireland, though injured through most of the season, gave such a convincing per- formance while in action that he was placed on several All-County teams. His hard charging de- fensive play gave the Cowboys their first score of the year, and his all around guard play contributed heavily to West Orange’s offense. Dick Bossert was the smallest man in the Cowboy line in size, but not in ability. Though faced by a much larger opponent every Saturday, Dick did not allow this handicap to prevent him from turning in a credit- able performance time and time again. A key man in every play is the center, and West Orange was fortunate in having a stand-out player like John Scott to fill this position. His faultless passing helped give the Cowboys a smooth offensive punch, and his brilliant defensive play earned him the Page 89 :o right: R. Lynch, H. rcll, F. Kluge, B. More- J. Jandoli, R. Bossert, awn, H. Mathesius, M. praise of the newspaper scribes all through the season. Dick Simon, who was seriously hampered by a wrenched knee, also helped the Cowboys’ cause during the 1943 campaign. Because of his injury, Dick was unable to play much offensive ball; but his sound defensive game was important to West Orange in several close contests. Howard Mathesius, the team’s high scorer and the fastest man on the squad, did a brilliant job at the half- back position. His long sprint in the Kearny game and his thrilling run against Westfield will remain in the minds of West Orange rooters for a long time to come. His blocking and defensive work showed all around capability which will be hard to equal. The quarterback of the 1943 eleven was Boh Milone, who did the kicking and passing in addition to his signal calling chores. Bob’s depend- able blocking aided his back field mates on of- fense, and his defense work as safety man broke up many opposing threats. Two other boys, who left the squad because of injuries received in the course of the season, were Gerald Salinard and Ronnie Rockrammer” Roberts. Jerry turned in a good performance against Irvington and Scott but wrenched his knee so badly in the latter game that he was forced to leave the squad. The Rock” suffered torn ribs in a rough and tumble practice session and, as a result, was unable to participate in the remainder of the games. John Scott rushes in to help a teammate knock out an op- posing man.

Carlson BASKETBALL As the Cowboy basketball season opened up, they suffered three straight losses, losing close games to Bloomfield and Orange, and then being decisively beaten by Belleville. Then West Orange, under the excellent coaching of Edward F. Syl- vester, hit the win column by defeating Clifford Scott and Columbia. In the process of beating Clifford Scott, Captain Norman (Whitey) Carl- son, the Cowboys’ scoring ace, broke the indi- vidual scoring record by swishing the hoop for twenty-two points, thus breaking the old record of nineteen points. The Cowboys then met the powerful Wecqua- hic team and were beaten, 56-48. West Orange, again in their winning stride, tumbled Clifford Scott and Columbia in return games, thus evening up the record at 500 per cent. Belleville was again met and again beat the Cowboys decisively by a 57 to 37 score. West Orange again on the rebound beat Irvington in a closely contested ball game with the great of- fensive playing of Captain Norman (Whitey) Carlson by a 44-42 score. East Orange was the next foe of West Orange; and the Panthers, after taking an early 15-0 lead, Basket ball Game Page 92 N. Carlson, W. Hotchy T. Biondi, . Millar First row, left to right: M.

Coach Sylvester gives pointers to Basketball Boys . Millar Basketball Court Page 9S t GIRLS’ Here it is the end of another school year, and the girls of West Orange High School have had a truly eventful one. Last fall, the gym classes welcomed back a former faculty member, Mrs. Terry, as their instructor. She had a problem on her hands in the form of some of the largest classes in the history of the school, but she handled that problem most successfully. While the weather was warm, and there was grass to be trampled under their feet, the girls enjoyed slugging away at baseball, playing an exciting game of soccer, hitting the hockey disc around the field (and often into the bruised knees of their teammates), and shooting the arrow directly (?) at the target for a competitive game of archery. When Old Man Winter sneaked in, they stayed in the air-cooled gymnasium and en- gaged in many different kinds of activities, namely, basketball, volleyball, ping pong, deck tennis, broad jumping, stunts and pyra- mids, and many other games that would de- velop their skill and physical well-being. One thing that cannot be omitted because Page 96 SPORTS of the important part it played in every girl’s gym period is calisthenics. When these exercises started, there were more grunts heard from the weaker sex than when the Senior English Exam was given. After a few introductory lessons, the girls performed some of the most difficult feats with case and grace, and also with a few giggles. After every gym period when calisthenics was executed, however, there were always sore muscles and stiff joints of which the girls complained. When they behaved themselves extra well and were exceptionally coopera- tive, they were allowed fifteen minutes of social dancing; and this was a very popular practice with them. This year also marked a large turnout of girls for the swimming team at the Y.W.C.A. after school on Wed- nesdays, for which they were given points toward their numerals or blocks. Thus, with these many and varied activi- ties, the girls of West Orange High School have become better equipped physically and mentally to be worthy citizens of West Orange, and of the United States. Page 97 Calisthenics Class Pyramid Page 98 SAVE . . . for your School is not preparation, but life itself—life at its most crucial stage. Your good student usually becomes the successful business or professional man. The ‘’Johnny who gets the Zero, who designs and constructs the Mustangs, as a student got a couple of zeros with a 1 in front of them. The Curtis boy who fools with “bird contraptions’ at Hammondsport, builds eagles with which to conquer time and space. Today’s flight of imagination is tomorrow’s basic industry. And so we are soliciting your banking business. We solicit your account—not when you grow up, but NOW, early in life. To you the banking connection thus formed, should prove invaluable as you advance in business or your chosen profession. THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK WEST ORANGE, N. J.
