West Orange High School - Ranger Yearbook (West Orange, NJ)

Text from Pages 1 - 234 of the 1948 volume:

For Reference Not to be taken from this library —Kptn— Within the beloved Wills of our A Jim Mater, that stately edifice which overlooks the greater number of our homes, there flourishes a life quite as colorful and unique as any three-ring circus the RmgJing Bros, ever conceived. And, best of all, no admission is charged to bar the curious wanderer from this merry-go-round of classes, activities, and sports. Under our big top the main attraction is, of course, the senior class with its veteran performers of the sawdust Those mirth provoking clowns, the junior members of the troupe, are to be found here too, as always, cutting their many capers. We also have our own menagerie, the sophomores, where wolves and monkeys confront us in numbers; and even the rarer species of the order of Mammalia are not lacking. In the side show tents of this, our little three-ring wonder, alluring charmers, fat women, giants, and midgets mingle in profusion to the confusion of the casual observer. We hope that our pictorial review, in our 1948 West-O-Ranger, of this great, yet diminutive spectacle will be enjoyed by all and will, in the far future, keep fresh in the memories of each of us the happy days spent in West Orange High. ff HARRY WENNER In dedicating our yearbook to Mr. Harry Wenner, the Class of 1948 feels that he typifies the many faculty members who, in our classrooms and in our activities, have given us something extra of themselves as advisers and friends as well as as teachers. Mr. Wenner has been a favorite of our class since he became our class adviser two years ago. At that time we were a little over awed by our senior high surroundings and even more confused while attempting to organize ourselves into a class; yet Mr. Wenner very soon helped us to become adjusted to the school. As our football coach of that year, he was admired by all for his sportsmanship and school spirit as well as for his coaching ability. Throughout the remaining two years of our stay on the hill, Mr. Wennei has been a help to our class in many ways. Who in the Class of 1948 will forget the miraculous way in which he managed to straighten out the details of our Junior Prom at a time when it appeared an impossibility ? At the beginning of our present school year Mr. Wenner became the adviser of the Student Congress, thereby playing another important part in our school life. Although it is an off-the-eampus activity, most of us have also benefited from our association with Mr. Wenner in his role of adviser to the WOTAC. But, above all, we arc grateful to Mr. Wenner for his real understanding of the student viewpoint, for his always helpful criticisms, for his tolerance of our foibles and frivolities, and for his warm, friendly companionship. Hurry, hurry, hurry! Step right up? See the greatest top on earth! Yes, that's what we like to think of our alma mater, the greatest school on earth. Is this just pride? Perhaps it is; and wc believe that it is pardonable pride—pride in our school, pride in our town, pride in our country. An intangible thing, this school spirit—but it is some- thing very real and very vital. We are proud of our school and all for which it stands. Therefore, wc are proud of democracy; for West Orange High School is a laboratory in democracy, a laboratory in which the experiments have been a complete success! P geH Under the “Big Top'' we have learned to live together; and what is more important —we have learned to work together. West Orange is a large town. Strong aments of sectional sentiment tear at the bond of unity. West Orange is composed of aJI kinds of people of different religions� of different national and racial origins, of different economic levels. In this respect it is much like America, or even the world itself. As happens elsewhere on a larger scale, cliques or special interests tend to develop in our communit)'. But our school is the melting pot for this smaller unit of society just as is America for the larger unit—the world. THE BIG TOP In out laboratory wc have built finer minds and healthier bodies. The academic program of West Orange High School lus given us j thorough foundation upon which to build our know (edge, whether we are to go on to college or to go forth into the w orld i of commerce and industry for an educat too through experience. Not only lus The West Orange graduate mastered the three i s, but also lie hjs acquired .1 cultural and scien- ilitu background. Strong mm and women are built through the school s athletic program, Lmd the medical system keeps cartful watch over the students health. Working on the theory, therefore, that in a derm racy an ignorant or weak citizen «annor be a good kitizcn. West Orange High School seeks to produce intelligent and strong citizens. Under the “Big Top wc have learned leadership. A democracy must have leaders, good leaders, many good leaders. The numerous extracurricular activities of the school give everyone who is willing to assume responsibility the opportunity to become a leader. From the football team to the student congress, from the canteen to the literary societies, the rule is democracy. It may truly be said that wc shall leave West Orange High School with our lives and those of our associates vastly enriched by the experience. If all Americans could but spend a few years of their lives under the Big Top, wc should certainly have a fuller, richer, more harmonious country and a better world. — Milton W. Brown Dr. Milton W. Brown was born in West Salem, Wisconsin. In 1923 he received his B.S. at Knox College. After graduation he received a fellowship to Chicago Uni- versity, where he obtained an M.A. He then taught in Illinois for fifteen years before coming to Glen Ridge where he was superintendent of schools for four years. It was in 1946 that he first came to West Orange. It was also in this year that he received his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. Dr. Brown's ambition, as he stated it to us, is To do the best possible job I can in West Orange. Dr. Brown also said that West Orange is a growing community; and because of this fact, he is faced with many interesting and difficult problems. Travelling with his family to the Midwest is Dr. Brown's idea of an ideal vacation. His son Jimmy, a typical eleven year old boy, is a constant source of joy and companion- ship to his dad. Hunting and fishing, during his vacation or on rainy days, are Dr. Brown's main recreations. Having had Dr. Brown with us for over a year now, we are beginning to feel acquainted with him. He is extremely popular with the faculty, the members of the Board of Education, and the students. Through his addresses and frequent personal visits to the high school, Dr. Brown has endeared himself to the entire student body. It would also appear that West Orange has endeared itself to Dr. Brown; for he says, I like West Orange very much, and I think that it is the nicest place in which I've ever worked. Page 13 Raymond E. Hearn Information, please! Whose fa- vorite phrase is I do not intend to speak every week; this is your assembly ? You’ve guessed; it’s Mr. Hearn’s. However, no matter how many times he has spoken to us, he has always given us con- structive criticism and sound advice. Since Mr. Hearn came to us in 194 1 from Roosevelt Junior High, he has made himself known as our friend. Understanding and unprej- udiced, he appreciates our feeble attempts for nigher education and helps many of us to work out our pro •fdctns. He also believes in teach ng pupils to think for themselves so that they may be better prepared to live intelligently. Mr. Hearn has a number of in- terests, including music and golf, and seems to get much pleasure from life. More than just a prin cipal and adviser, he is a real friend to all of us—both teachers and students. For his kindly interest and wise guidance, wc, the class of '48. are thankful. Pjge 24 Chester H. Wine Mr, Wine is a native of Virginia, where he spent his early schooldays. He attended high school and col- lege in Pennsylvania. While he was studying at Lebanon Valley College, his education was interrupted by the two years which he spent in the Army with the engineers during World War I. In college he was active in athletici, playing varsity football and basketball. Alter grad- uation he taught U. S. History and coached athletic teams in Pennsyl- vania for eleven years before com- ing to West Orange High School in a similar capacity in 1950. He became principal ol Haad Avenue School in 1952 and returned to W.O. H. S. as assistant principal in 1944. Among Mr Wine's favorites are golf, bridge, and young people. To the graduates he wishes success in all their undertakings and should like to remind them that great suc- cess in life comes to him who com- bines superior achievement with superior attitudes.

And as we look back over our years a$ students at West Orange High, the pals who stand out the most vividly arc those whom we chose as our leaders. “Once a leader, always a leader” fits Doug Siingtrland, who has been our president for four years. Doug, however, hasn't let his being a big politician interfere with his lessons; for he’s an honor student. ’’Good things come in small packages” is true in the case of our vice- president. And, big or little, Bill Burgess has carried out his duties exceptionally well. Our secretary, Betty Scott, has a quiet charm all her own. Although she takes part in many activities, she manages to do honor work in her studies. Bill Gentilcsco, an experienced revenue man, knows all the tricks of his trade; but that’s not his only claim to fame—he is well liked by all.

This year West Orange High possesses a Junior Class which is extremely active in the scholastic, social, and sports worlds. Many members are on the high honor roll; the Sophomore Hop fast year was one of the best the school has ever seen; and the juniors can be found in prolific quantities on the various athletic teams. The Juniors at the beginning of the year chose four excellent officers. Carmen Franco, the vice- president, became the president when Frank Torch moved to Florida. Carmen, who is very active in CARMEN FRANCO Fffii'Jrni rf Junior CliSI Pjge 9C sports, is extremely popular with his fellow class- mates. With Ann Scarponcini as secretary and John Koutouzakis as treasurer the juniors feel that they have elected a splendid team, Scholastic.illy Jerome Metzger, Sam Gilman, Virginia Zimmerman, Joanne Trotter, and Gus Lam- brew head I he list.

John Chambers, As you wander through the busy corridors of our school� perhaps you have noticed some pint-sized students strolling around with a dazed look in their eyes. These are the babies of our school—the sophomores. Fresh from the two junior high schools, where they were the most respected members of the student body, they are quite be- wildered by their new role of being the babies. The first day of school was, indeed, a trying one. The building was unfamiliar to them, and they could be seen scurrying around the school gazing at door numbers. Finally, they became thoroughly accus- tomed to the building, and some of them even distinguished themselves in sports. Among those who will be the nucleus of our football team next year are Richard De Navo, Levi Thomas, Dick Kocornik, Carmen Spero, and David Del Guidicc. Among those that participated in basketball are Dick Kocornik, George O'Connor, John Imgrund, Thomas San Giacomo, Peter Toal, and Blair Powell. The tennis team has many promising sophomores. These include Walter Pizzi, John Imgrund, Marvin Smith, and Robin Ellis. The sophomores have planned their annual party, the Sopho- more Hop, tor May 14.

The sophomores have made wise choices in electing their officers. Their president Thomas San Giacomo is a very likeable person. He is very interested in sports and was on the football and basketball teams. To the office of vice-president Michael Calabria, the boy with the black curly hiir, was elected. As treasurer they chose William Connor, a likeable person who is an honor stu- dent. Last but not least, Terry Tokar a very active, bright eyed, alert person, was elected secretary. With such excellent officers the sophomore class should shine in the future. Fir t fair: Terry Taker. Betty jane Burke. Irene Swell- unn, JcJkfifie fiaefcmr, BdafeS Suit. Afitdi.ficite Spero,.

West Orange, however, gained some recognition in the fact that they were the first team in the Oranges to score. This occurred m the Irvington game when Johnny Saporito took a lateral from Bucky Thomas and sprinted sixty-five yards for a touchdown; the extra point was wide. Irvington then gained possession of the hall and with Jim Moyer's (perhaps one of the best backs in the state) running the ends scored during the second quarter. An inter cepted pass during the fourth quarter giv; Irvington six more points and thus, the game, which ended with the score, 6-12 Page 117 . 1 The football coaches: Wendell Wear, Marcus Rankin, and Alfred Lau fence. The next week the Cowboys met Clifford Scott of East Orange. They were not playing up to par so that the first score vs as a lopsided 0-19 in Scott’s favor. East Orange proved to be another stumbling block for our Cowboys with the J.V.'s playing most of the second half. This may be an indication of what our team next year will be. Kearny who up to this point in the season hadn't won a game met us next. The first period was scoreless with both teams being very even in all respects. In the second period, how- ever, Kearny broke the cz with a touchdown and went on to win 18-0. The next opponent was Orange. In the first half Orange rolled up fourteen points, one by an end run and the other by an interception of a pass. The second period, however, showed West Orange's outplaying them in every respect and miss- ing a touchdown by inches. Barringer of Newark was our next opponent. After a poor first half, in which Barringer scored 12 points, Wrest Orange caught lire putting over one touchdown but by a bad break losing their chance for another score. The game ended 6-12 in Barringer’s favor. Montclair, State c $ Art Lee looks determined to succeed as he breaks loose in the Kearny West Orange game.

Westfield proved to be the Cowboy's downfall. The game ended 4N-0 with Westfield scoring in every period. A point should be raised at this time to the effect that West field was one of the state s best squaus and, to many observers of the game, perhaps the best squad in the sratc, The traditional Turkey Day” game was, as usual� a very exciting, hard fought one, Columbia, however, entered the game the favorite because of a good 6-2 record, they having tost only to Westfield and Montclair. The day was sunny, but the field was very muddy in spots because of the thaw of ice which was on the field. The first half ended with Columbia's winning a 12-0 score and with West Orange's suffering from the loss of one of its regular guards, Phil Torromeo, who had suffered a broken ankle. During the third quarter the Cowboys scored a safety which made the score 12-2. The Cougar, however, came back to win the game Ittd. And so ended a bad luck season.

THE BARKERS Although following a losing football team this year, the West Orange student rooters never faltered. One of the t hief reasons was the excellent display of spirit in our fine squad of cheerleaders. Four members of last year’s squad who returned were Joan Pugh, captain, Carolyn 5cho:t, Melvin Fenning, and Bernard Fink. They were joined by four seniors, Evelyn Jentis, Janice McGoughran, Peggy Fortescue, and Betty lovin, and two juniors, Joan Dixon and Jackie Boal, who will be with us next year. in addition to leading the rooters every Saturday, our cheerleaders sparked all the pep meetings. Three pep rallies were held in school, and all the rest were held at the canteen. At the basketball games, too, our cheerleaders were found. Everyone agrees that it will be many years before West Orange will sec a chccrk-ading squad that can com- pare to this year's Page 120 This is the second year that West Orange High has had a full squad of ten twirlers. Although only two girls that were on the squad last year arc back again, the twirlcrs have done an excellent job in representing our school at the football games. The girls, chosen from some seventy-five contestants, practised once a week in the spring. When the football season opened, they practised daily in school and at home. These long hours of practise proved fruitful when the twirlcrs, strutting across the field in their white uniforms, showed us their skill in handling their batons. We are very grateful to these girls for so proudly representing West Orange High School Pag 12t Left In right: Pat Cruise, Viola KchIlim� ,, Bllkn Ford..

Six of the eight losses were by a margin of two or four points. The highest score of the season 4-24 was won from East Orange at the Panther's court. Also, it was the high- est score of the year in the Oranges’ League. In this same league, West Orange, the defending champion, was dethroned by Orange who defeated every' league opponent. The Cowboys finished second with a record of four victories to two defeats. West Orange entered the County Tournament and placed seventh in a group of sixteen teams. As their first opponent, the team drew St. James and beat them by a count of 1 - IB. The Cowboys then played Immaculate Conception of Montclair but lost by a score of 51-29. West Orange ran up high scores of more than JOHNNY At VICCI P g 125 forty points in six of their games. They defeated the Alumni and East Orange by the identical score —54 24 One of the high points of the season was the game between the Fearless Faculty Five and the Atomic Varsity. Who officially won the game is quite a controversy. It was youth versus age and marks versus skill with the proceeds going to Mr. Thomas' pet charity. Coach Rankin will lose only three men from this year's varsity squad. They are Dick O’Neill, Hugh O'Hara, and Jim Perry; therefore, the future looks very bright for basketball next year. 0 Hara (G)—The backbone of our learn, Hugh O'Hara, is adding tuo more points to the score of West Orange.

West Orange High, once again, under the leadership of Coach Jimmy O'Keefe, promises to held a winning combine. Coach O'Keefe has arranged an 18 game sched- ule, including games with two new opponents, Nutley and Clifford Scott. Three returning veterans, who will form the nucleus of the team, arc Don Mohr in the out held, George Di Mario at shortstop, and Dick O'Neill on the pitching staff. Among the positions to be filled is that of catcher, which will have Harry Swinson and Jack Obermeyer dueling to gain a starting berth in the lineup. At first base, the starting assignment will go to any one of four prospects: Jack Obermeyer, Richard Thomas, Anthony Fcula, and Dick Kilborn. At second base, the starting nod will probably go to Dick Birdseed McCauley but not without a stiff fight from Ronnie Weber, Carmen Franco, and Les- lie Crawford. I.arry Del Plato, Ken Hein, and Levi Thomas will battle it out for third base. In the out- field, the candidates are Jess Taylor, Squeaky Jan- quitto, and Dick Kilborn, who will fight it out to start with Don Mohr. On the mound the most promising candidates besides Dick O'Neill are Andy O'Connor, John Alviggi, Walter Jittner, and Dick Kilborn. With so much good material from which to draw the baseball season promises to be an interesting one.

Fourth row: Duncan Spooner, David Meyer, Marvin Smith, John LeceLa. The tennis team, having exhibited a fine '47 season, is set for another successful year. With the leadership of Mr. Finch and the ability of four senior lettermen, the tennis team should present a record this year as auspicious as that of last year. The senior lettermen, William Clark, Ronald Banks, Ray Carpenter, and Harold Youngman, will comprise the main body of the squad; Art Sholk. a junior, and some of the promising sophomores will be held in reserve. These out- standing netmen, along with the other players, will furnish West Orange with an excellent '48 tennis team. some of the outstanding opponents of the tennis team are Columbia, East Orange, Montclair, Irvington, and West- field. The team’s toughest opposition will probably come from Columbia, the only team West Orange bowed to in the. 1947 season. Not only is Mr. Finch looking forward to a successful 1948 squad, but also he is expecting many more proficient teams in the future. With the promising material in the high school, Mr. Finch will turn out crack teams in the years to come. Page 131 I-cft to right Mr. Eranf.

Even though two members of our last year's golf squad have been graduated, the outlook for this year’s team is a good one. Jerry Stickling, captain of last year's squad, and James Perry, number-two man on last year's squad, will be back again this year. Melvin Friedman and Bill DeCamp, two promising newcomers, will probably round out the team. Because the other golf teams in the state have been using four-nun squads, the number of players on our Erst squad this year will be reduced from six players to four. However, at least four other players will be needed on the team to play in the matches in case the regular players can’t compete. Th is year's squad will have to play good, con- sistent golf in order to end the season with a record as fine as last year’s; for the 47 squad finish’d with the fine record of sixteen won and only two lost.

Wc have many different sports from which to choose each season. When a girl has earned four hundred points, she receives her numeral; when she has earned eight hundred points, she receives her W.O. block. The senior girl who has the highest number of points at graduation receives a gold pin. A silver pin is awarded to the senior girl with the second highest amount of points.

THE BIG TOP’S BAND The West Orange High School band has always been noted for its excellent playing. This talent was particularly evident during the football season of '47, a year when the competition from other schools was great. Mr. Rcifsnyder, or Charlie, as he is affection- ately called, selects fifty or so people, marches them up and down in the hot sun through fields of dust for approximately twenty-five hours during the foot- ball season, and turns out a top-rate band. Abo on the day before the big Thinkfgiving day game, prac- tically every member of the band brings his lunch with him and, after a short break, practices for the remainder of the day. This strenuous schedule, be- sides producing good music, is also apparent in the snap and preciseness with which the bind forms a football” or a W.O. on the field. In every season’s work there is one big event— many people think that Julius Franklin provided this moment for the band. During the Thank giving Day game, both hands were marching on a very muddy field; but Julius, who plays the bass drum, deciding that a little spice was needed, proceeded to stand on his head and play the drum from that position. Some sympathetic soul was heard to remark that such an antic was very hard on the drum'. - Page 146 Jackie Soiuleuski, Pat Cruise, Pai U'erlt—The pride of W'.O H S. . cheeks It looks as if CharlieM is training she band for choir work, too Row 1: M dicent Powell.

THE CALLIOPE The West Orange High School orchestra, under the direction of Jennings Butterfield, better known as ’Dean, is a versatile and competent organization. The orchestra presents a very finished product to its listeners at the Annual Spring Concert, the Roose- velt Operetta, and the Senior Play. The P. T A. has often been entertained by its musical stories On every Wednesday morning and on every Wednes- day’s and Thursday's 3th period the orchestra can be heard faithfully practicing away. However, the casual listener does not see Dean'' enter in a rush, shout madiy1 On stage, everybodyI ', and then with an agonized expression On his face attempt to restore order to chaos. Besides playing for local groups this year, on January 16th the entire orchestra made its radio debut on station WNJR. Carol Umbra t, Mary Leach, and occasionally Thelma Winston remove some of the burden of con- ducting from Dcjn’s shoulders; and these girls are really good. The orchestra presented the entire school with a gift this term; for they actually learned some new marches. Now, every Thursday when we march to assembly, we hear our new selections, which have been in the orchestra files for years. There arc several unusual instruments in the or- chestra this term. An oboe, a bassoon, a double bass, and three sousaphones are among a few of the four- teen or fifteen types of instruments. Gtne Russo plays a tune. Some musief Pug 149 THE SEA LIONS One of the organizations in this school that gets very little publicity but that works very hard is the Boys Chorus. The group is made up of a number of boys who have a particular interest in vocal music but who are not able, for some reason or other, to join the choir. There are, however several boys from the choir that do belong to this group. The boys meet on Friday mornings during the activity period in the Girls' Gym and are very competently directed by Mr. Barnes, the head of the music department. Although they made no public appearance until the second half of the year, they did sing in one of our assembly programs. Everyone is looking forward, with anticipation, to the hearing of the boys again; for, who knows, maybe there is a future LauriU Melchior or Ezio Pinza in the group. Rtwr ii Chart Rooney.

Those young ladies are the members of the Girls’ Glee Club. The Club is made up of various young ladies from tbc three classes who have an interest in vocal music. Although many of the girls arc members of the choir there are still some who have not had any previous vocal training. The Glee Club meets every Wednesday morning during the activity period. Under the able direction of Mr. Barnes and with the aid of their accomplished accompanist, Mrs. Young, the girls were able to make a number of public appearances this year in their new white robes. They diu an excellent job in the Christ- mas and Spring Concerts as well as in the various assembly programs in which they took part.

Kaufman. The dates were November 14 and H; the time, 8;CK) to 11:00. The play was greatly enjoyed by both audiences, Not only did they appreciate the production, hut also did everyone else who was in any way involved in the staging of it. The story was of the difficulties a girl’s eccentric family causes her when she falls in Jove with a society man. Mary Jem Pi£ i played the part of the girl, AJicc, with the following difficulties: her mother. Penny Sycamore, who was played by Betty Ann Parnau; her father, Paul Sycamore, who was acted by Joe Zullo; Paul Sycamore's friend, Mr. DePinna, who was hilariously played by Roger Stevens. Alice Page 152 also had to contend with her ballet dancing sister„ Essie, who was played by Joanne SiSSO. Essie's hus- band, Ed, was perfectly portrayed by Dick Howarth as the xylophone playing and printing master of the house. Ronnie Key ton boisterously played the Rus- sian, Boris Kolenkov, who was Essie s ballet dam mag teacher. The house was loud enough; but without the expert playing of Jack Klingel as Grandpa, the noise wgulu have been considered only as a low roar. Grandpa always had sound reasoning, lie used com- mon sense in advising Alice on her love affair with the socialite, Anthony Kirby, Jr., who was played by Harold Youngrmn. But when it came to paying income tax. Grandpa didn't have any common sense. Since he didn't believe in it, there had to be a federal agent. Doug Slingerland portrayed the calm (?) federal agent. Three officers of the law were intro- duced when it was discovered that Essie's husband had been printing subversive literature. Probably the two sanest people in the entire household wore the maid and the butler who were portrayed by Janice McGoughran and Bernard Fink. Harry Swinson and Joan Pugh acted as the haughty parents of Tony Kirby. A second bit of Russian influence in the cast was in the form of the Grand Duchess Olga Katrina, a Russian blueblood, who was currently working at Childs on 42nd Street (Betty Iovin). Thanks go to the entire cast and to all the committees that helped to make the show possible. But we of the cast and of the entire Senior Class wish to express our sin ccrest and deepest thanks to Mrs. Cotter, our coach.

Clem discusses school problems. Clem Hen ton, president of Student Congress Although the Student Congress had a slow start this year, it rapidly made up for this defect during the rest of the school year Two of the elected offi- cers were forced to resign: Julia Stecrc moved to Livingston; and Lois Bosscrt, closely pressed by the duties of the editor-in-chief of the Round-up, also had to leave On top of all this, President Clement Hcnion broke his ankle and was inactive for a long time. Although no provision is made in the constitu- tion for the replacement of officers other than that of the president, it was finally decided to fill the vacant offices with last year’s defeated candidates, Barbara Mayer and Alice Clayton. And after the Curtis Campaign, the Congress really got underway. This year there is a new system of meeting. The entire Congress (representatives, alternates, and ap- pointees) meet every week instead of once a month as in previous years, Every other week the Congress divides itself into committees, where much of the real work is done. Many problems confronted Henion and his gang. About 25% of the Congress was forced to choose between literary organizations and the Student Con- gress. Luckily for the Congress, however, many chose to remain. There was also a change in faculty advisers: Mr. Atwaii, heavily pressed with other duties, had Id hand over the advisership to Mr, Wenner. In spite of all these handicaps the Congress has accomplished much this year. They started a prec- edent by giving the new Sophomores a party This party to be given early every fall, is for the purpose of having all the sophomores get acquainted. President Clem Henion and Vice-President Joanne Trotter acquainted the Kiwanis Club with the Con- gress by speaking to them, at a luncheon of the many problems that confront the Congress. Also a repre- sentative group attended an interstudent congress at Orange High. Many ideas of interest 10 each other were discussed. The Congress also this year put into effect the act passed in A1 Purcell's term which stated that any organization wishing aid must submit written reports. The Congress sponsored the Navajo Indian Drive, the Save the Children Campaign, the Red Cross Drive, and the Basketball Slogan Card Col- lection. During the year, the Congress was pleased to receive a plaque from the Board of Education honor- ing the war dead of World War If. Another plaque, to be used to commemorate the year's two best musi- cians, was also received. The Student Congress, thus, records another year of worthwhile achievement, and we confidently ex- pect the Student Congress of next year and the win to come to work diligently for the benefit of the community, the school, and the students Page 159 THE FAT WOMEN I, ft ta rich!: Elaine Bayiftifc-s3ci, Hicky IBrawn.

The Philologi an Literary Society is made up of juniors and seniors who have maintained a scholastic average of at least seventy-five percent in all sub- jects, The dub meets once a week during the Fridiy morning activity period and seeks to aid its members in acquiring ease in public speaking, while, at the same time, arousing in them an interest in literature and other cultural subjects. The programs consist of planned and extemporaneous speeches� book reports, debates, and the like. At Christmas time the club sent a magazine sub- scription to the Crippled Children s Hospital in New- ark and one hundred and fifty cards to people whose names were acquired from the Shut-in Society. Be sides this, at the joint Christmas meeting with Clio, each member of both societies brought a small gift, which was sent to the children at the Orthopedic Hospital. Some of the other activities of the dub include an assembly program in March, a trip to New York to see a play, and the annual banquet in the spring, at which time we initiate new members and learn the winner of the silver scholarship cup, a reward given to the literary society gaining the higher scho- lastic average.

Br- ea use of the re-organized dub schedule, new officers and members had to be elected to replace those who were forced to resign. After Clio was again organized, programs con- sisting of panel discussions, novel reviews, and other literary entertainment were planned to keep the meeting lively, On Lincoln's Birthday the dub ex- pects to give an assembly program. Through the suggestion of Clio’s faculty adviser, Miss MeSweeney, the club’s scholastic standard has been raised; and before the year ends the club pin, to be designed by the members, shall be proudly displayed by the Clio owner. The joint meetings of Clio and Philo had to be discontinued because of the lack of seating space but the spirit of competition is carried on at our annual Clio-PhiLo banejuet each June, where new members are initiated and the dub with the higher average is presented a silver cup, the victor s spoils for the year.

They work under the guidance of Miss Moller, our librarian. The council meets during the Activity Period on Wednes- days; at each meeting all business is discussed� and shelves are read and straightened. Each member has a certain number of shelves, which she must keep in order. In addition� she is responsible for doing library work during a certain number of free periods a week and after school, if possible. During these periods there is a great deal of work to be done. First� all the library slips must be stamped� counted� and taken to the study halls. After this, all books which have been brought in have to be put back on the shelves. There is also special work which is assigned to certain girls. Taking care of papers and magazines, fixing the bulletin boards� checking the book lists—these are some of the extra jobs that must be done. Each year the council takes a trip to New York as a little vacation.

Page 162 THE TALENT SCOUTS While you sat back enjoying the assembly pro- grams this past year, did it ever occur to you that each program presented was the result of careful planning) The Assembly Council is the agent through which the different programs were hooked. You may remember the library uuiz, the musical programs, the canteen assembly—all were presented through the Assembly Council. An added touch of variety appeared when professional persons appeared on the stage. A few of these were Count Cassini, the Bucknell Men's Choir, and the radar experts. This year the faculty adviser of the Assembly Coun- cil was Miss Lancaster. Working together, she and its members have formulated a well liked assembly schedule. All in all, the Council has successfully followed its aim—to provide various types of inter- esting assembly programs throughout the year. RrttH, left to H|ht: Miss Tjincailfr, Pat fruiic, Mm.

This year, with an enrollment larger than in any previous year, the Art Club has been divided into two sections. Miss Hcrgt now supervises the meet- ings of Art Clubs on both Wednesday and Friday mornings during the activity period. The Art Club seniors snent most of their time illustrating for the yearbook and working on the props ana the scenery for the senior play. Included among the other activities of the group were land- scape and portrait drawing, the working with ceram- ics, and the making of shell earrings. Members of the dub contributed pictures to the International Art Exchange Program. The pictures are drawings of American life and were sent to the school children of France to promote international understanding. During the spring term, the Art Club, with the Dramatic Club and the Library Council, made a trip to New York to see the stage hit, Allegro.” Rig 106 Tom (kiimar, June laucb, Helen Frn|«r- ickmn, Anna PnncmtU. Some of the busiest people around school this year are the members of the Home Economics Club, called the Future Home- makers of America. The FHA, as it is more commonly known, meets Friday mornings during the activity period. Because of its large membership the FHA has been divided in three groups under the direction of Miss Schwenk, Miss Quinn, and Mrs. Rubin. The presidents of the three groups are Doris Schocck, Grace Kochcr, and Anna Princiotta; Betty Oshwald serves as president of the entire chapter. The girls have been busy knitting for Europe, selling candy at the football games, making up Christmas packages for children in Europe, and playing hostess at a meeting in January to the officers of the organization from all over the state.

Christening their organisation The International Relations CJub,M they went to work to make it deserving of its im- pressive appellation. Jack Klingel was elected presi- dent; George Wolff, vice - president; and Norma Quigley, secretary. Slowly, but surely, the infant organization gained strength; and with it, its mem- bers grew in their understanding of the problems facing their elders today, and themselves, tomorrow. We shall all remember the stormy debate on the question: ‘ Can we achieve a permanent peace with Russia ?” Happily, the dub was a complete success, as witnessed by its remarkable growth to maturity. Tl is year saw the fruition of the efforts of its strug- gling pioneers. When the first meeting convened, fifty, not fifteen, interested people appeared. Officers were again selected—Bob Spahle, president; Andy O'Connor, vice-president; Peggy Fort esc ue, secretary. George Proll and Bob Rawson appeared on the Jun- ior Towrn Meeting Broadcast, The group now plans further radio participation and a trip to the United Nations’ Headquarters. The International Relations Club is here to stay. If you doubt it, drop in some Wednesday morning on one of its turbulent discus- sions, Whether arguing about Russia, Palestine, or Henry Wallace, there's no neutrality in the I. R. C.

Club WOTAC celebrated its fourth birthday on March 6, 1948, to became the oldest existing can- teen in New Jersey. The canteen, originally a war- time measure taken for teen - agers by the town fathers, has developed into a meeting place for the boys and girls from all parts of the town. Its yearly program includes activities every Friday and Saturday night. This year's special dances commenced with the opening night festivities. Features of the autumn program were the pep rallies, held at the dub before many of the games, under the auspices of the high school cheerleaders and marching band. These were topped off by the huge bonfire rally of the evening before the Thanksgiving game. Had enthusiasm of supporters counted, we certainly would have beaten Columbia, Also in the Indian Summer spirit, the annual Harvest Dance was held in October. The winter's activities started out with the Sadie Hawkins Dance in November. Iri a contest to find a Daisy Mac from among West Orange’s femininity, Patricia Bochner was elected. Runners-up were Jackie Boil and Joan Clutts. The canteen s old friends were welcomed back at the Alumni Dance soon after Thanksgiving Day. Present were last year's president Bill Knox and vice-president Mary Lou Imgrand and the preceding year s president George Hart as well as this year's officers and other old and new members. The Christmas Dance was also a striking affair with a huge turnout. The usual Xmas mistletoe was prevalent. Thc annual Bowery Brawl, held in January, THE FREAKS brought the strangest costumes to the club. Winners as possessors of the most unique costumes were Margi Roalefs and Eugene Cocosa. 1947 r48’s officers were Drew Scibeit, president; Pat Cruise, vice-president; Joan Clutts, secretary, and Gus Lambrew, treasurer The committee chairmen were: Membership, Fred Wotfc and Gene Cacosa; Program, Phil Tor- romeo; Records, Nancy Kerr and Jim Mdlinger; House, Jim Burt; Hospitality, Mary Jean Pizzi; Decorations, Peggy Fortescue; Publicity, Robert Raw son.

Unlike the more common type of club which is beneficial to its members alone, the Visual Aid Club is an unusual organization whose prime purpose seems to be to help the school in various ways. Mr. Eastwood, the club’s sponsor, not only allows his ‘ boys’ to run the movie projectors and the slide machine during special assembly programs and certain classes, but also allows them to operate the recorders, the amplifiers, and the microphones. Taking care of the many gadgets is only a part of what these electrical experts do. All of Mr. Eastwood s young proteges like Talt, Fink, Baubles, and Alfin- stonc, gather together on Wednesday mornings. Strangely enough the regular club meet- ings are the easiest portion of the work. In this activity period all that the ambitious members arc expected to do is to check over the equipment for which they arc responsible and to lend a helping hand to any other group that needs their technical assistance. The best and major part of this organization is performed during any ordinary school day. Taking care of the lighting effects in assemblies, installing radios in some classrooms, making recordings, keeping the various electrical facilities of the school in order—these arc a few of the things undertaken by this club. fclfir 170 OUR TICKET AND MB' Im sr L3S.U-n L momm under thr alrfettion of Mn. evans in order to give tficii teachers and organ lat fern in the school.

OUR PRESS In the spring of 1946, the Roundup began as a project in Miss Hi Ison's English classes, headed by Malcolm Ginsburg as editor-in-chief. The following fall Mr. Thomas became the supervisor of our reg- ular school newspaper. Hazel Cummings was selected as the first editor-in-chief, and Donald Baldwin, the first business manager. Ed Havas designed the first banner which was later supplanted by the present one, designed by. Dick Spaid and John Saporito.

That others appreciate him as much as we is confirmed by his outside activities. The- First Presbyterian Church of Orange has enlisted his services, and he was selected as the director of the AII State Choir at the Atlantic City Teachers' Convention. The A Cappella Choir is a fine musical organi- zation, conriMsed of about seventy-five boys and girls, whose performances in audition indicate that they do make a material contribution to the choir. Some of its members qualified for membership in the All- state and Essex County Choirs, The group meets each fifth period in the girls’ gym and studies selec- tions that range from the semi-classical to the Negro spirituals and folk songs. We shall all remember the excellent perform- ances of the club at the Spring Concert and at the Christmas Concert as well as at the Easter Assembly. The group has appeared this year over radio station WNJR and also at many social functions of the community. The choir is, indeed, second to none of our school's fine organisations. b«i . , B Row 1: Carolyn Sclwn, Betsy levin.. BeMjr Swlt, Vada, Salary,.

Page 177 The Sports Club is an organization for the promotion of athletic activities among the boys of the school. The organization of the dub aroused much enthusiasm; and as a result, there were more prospective members than could be cared for. Those that did become members, however, enjoy the sports and entertainment offered. The Sports Club provides an opportunity for the bop to develop skill in such sports as boxing, wrestling, hunting, and baseball. The club meets on briday mornings, and a worthwhile forty-five minutjs is spent on drill in the fundamentals of boxing, wrestling, etc, Mr. Wear and Mr. Lawrence handle the coaching assignments: assistance and instruction in wrestling is given by Mr. Wear; the boxing instructions are given by Mr. Lawrence. At various tim?s during the regular hunting season (usual- ly on Saturdays) those members interested in hunting arc taken on hunting expeditions by Mr, Evans. The newest addition to the Sports Club is the baseball group under the direction of Mr. O Keefe. Prac- tice has been held indoors; but as soon as fair weather is with us permanently, the club will move out doors. There, the fellows will improve their gamr by actual team play, the most effective way to learn any sport, The Club, as a whole, tends to develop good sportsmanship and give useful instruction, combined with exercise.

Doris Read Suzanne Grot la, ValedUtouan Just as every circus has its sideshow at- tractions, so we, too, at West Orange High School have our sideshow attraction, our honor roll students. These pupils are those who have come to class actually prepared to perform when the teachers have started cracking their whips. Amazing feats have been accomplished daily by these unusual ones in Spanish, U. S. History II, and Eng- lish; but occasionally even some of these intelligentsia find that such a subject as chemistry resembles somewhat a three-ring circus. It is easy to see the high esteem in which these scholars are held, for they are often asked for their autographs by the less bril- liant students—especially if they appear on the top of some solid geometry homework papers or at the top of those extensive English literature notes. Truly, though, these students deserve recognition for thfc fine work and great effort they have put forth in order to main- tain at least an 85% average in all of their work for the past 3 2 y rs- Gustave Leibiger, Salutatorian Page 186 Jerome Metzger and Sam Gilman, the two highest juniors.

Al though a few unenlightened classmates may suspect this trick to be done with mirrors and a little pull, the fact remains that through much perseverance and more than a little of that gray matter we are all supposed to be born with, these students have main- tained an honor average during their stay in West Orange High. These people have not been loafers on the ex- tracurricular activities list, either. Besides having to work for their marks, they have contributed to the Roundup, have served a$ class officers, and have been active members of the clubs of the school. All of these activities involve extra time and effort which they have given willingly. Because of the excellent record presented, the seniors know that these students will carry on the tradition of good scholarship in West Orange High School HIGH SOPHOMORES K Ufh A hr am 5 Join Anderson QmuinM GI avr Ann Gtlii Eva Kauri Henry Holzhautr Saily Mitruri Grace McCormack Sylvia liaHai Nancy Philjiftton Robert Ovid Lucille Ringcw M r� |yn Rmner Marvin Smith Irene W«tjLng Ann Glass and Constance Glaser, the two highest sophomores.
