We are the graduating class of June 1940, and we are most indebted to our parents and instructors for their kind guidance. There is no doubt in the mind of any senior of the sacrifices our parents have made that we might complete our high school education. Their sympathetic understanding has been a beacon for us when we were surrounded by the darkness of what we believed to have been unconquerable odds. How sorely we must have tried the patience of the teachers who co-operated with us in the production of our senior show and collecting material for this book which you represent. We trust you to guard jealously our confidences so that in the future we may turn to your pages to revive our dimming memories. None of us as yet realizes the importance of the four years we are about to complete. The knowledge we have gathered is the foundation for a higher education and a wider range of experience. The traits of character we have developed will remain with us for- ever more, and they will determine whether we shall be more or less successful in later life. There is one thing you must bear in mind Diary, that is, we shall never stop learning. This Senior Class of June 1940, геа!- izes that although we shall have graduated from West Side High School our learning will never cease. We must be willing to accept new ideas that will influence our life in the future. It is necessary that we keep our minds open so that we may be broad enough to accept the views of the world at large. Still another thing that we must impress upon you is the major part played by our parents and instructors during these years. How fortunate we are to have had such patient friends guiding us. Diary, it is in you we must write a record of our school days so that the past may be brought closer to us. Some of us are going on to higher institutions of learning, others are not, but all of us will hold you responsible for retaining our memories. A Senior. M H. REYBURN TO THE CLASS OF JUNE, 1940 THE FULL LIFE i. You would live fully? Quicken then your pulse In kinship with those high, heroic hearts Who hold aloft the oriflame of Hope, Deathless and bright across the groping years. The Man of Nazareth upon the Cross, With anguished cry, “They know not what they do; Forgive them, Father! Socrates unshaken Drinking the hemlock; stalwart Charles Martel With hammering blows routing the Moslem horde; Columbus, eagle-hearted, driving his ships With dauntless purpose through the unploughed seas; And millions more, dream-stirred, without a name, Whose glowing vision or uplifted arm Have rived the shackles and on us bestowed The blessings of a thousand centuries Lift up your spirit, and exultant feel One with the breathless stretches infinite— Mighty Orion and the Polar Star But on the threshold. Fancy faints imagining Our principal, Mr. Reyburn A. Higgins, was a former teacher in West Side. Mr. Higgins received his A.B. degree from Indiana University and his A.M. degree from New York University. Нау- ing come to West Side in 1926, he remained here for seven years as a member of the English depart- ment. In 1933, Mr. Higgins went to Weequahic where he was the chairman of the English depart- ment. Mr. Higgins returned to West Side in 1937 as principal. A. HIGGINS The Suns beyond our Sun—Worlds without end Time a mere fleck upon Eternity; And Man within these regions measureless Though thrall to Time and Space, with head un bowed. 3 Learn, too, to love the little things of life The spring-awakened crocus in the grass; The light upon the waters, and the breeze Rippling the maples with a soft caress; The clinging hands of children, and the warmth Of friendship; the inner light that glows From deeds unselfish and from honest mirth 4 Then on some clear-eyed day—as roseate light Revealed the Grail to the rapt Galahad You glimpse the Infinite within the Rose; Eternity within this passing day; And each of us, component parts of Life, Helping to bear that Life through Time and Space Till Time and Space themselves shall be no more , E а уа. бу. 2 жона Page Five MISS M.

Ah! At last we're high school students. We are growing up and so is the school for this is it's tenth anniver- sary. Мемег will we forget those first moments here. The various grammar schools that we had attended never made us change from one class to another every forty-five minutes and it seems so strange to us freshmen. Well we'll get over that We'll never forget our first appearance at one of West Side's assemblies. There, for the first time, we read that now familiar quotation above the stage, “Еди- cation is the ambition and the hope of America.” The hustle and bustle of filling out schedules and organization cards, and learning locker combinations is all new to us, but it is fun. That first schedule which we made out and our first meet- ing with the first of many homeroom teachers, will always remain in our memories. Gosh, we hope that algebra and Latin won't be too hard for us. You know, dear Diary, going to school during the afternoon session is going to be convenient at times. We can sleep late in the morning and do our home work after we get up. Oh! Won't it be grand when we become 2A's and go to school in the morning. We can hardly а а Is T UH Y wait until we can go home for lunch and no longer have to eat in the school cafe teria. We do believe that we'll never look at another sandwich again after this year A new P. M. Library Club and Dra matic Club were organized and now some of us are learning to play Hamlet while the others are having a good time playing librarian We freshmen, аге already active members of the student body for we competed in a radio spelling bee against South Side High School. The West Side team was composed of freshmen Our class is doing our bit for the pres ent outgoing seniors too. Most of us have bought the green feathers and W pins that the upper classmen are selling. We intend to support our team at all the football games. Those pins and quills will be perfect souvenirs to have after graduation W-E-S-T — S-I-D-E — Fight team fight! Er Uh Er de Our throats are irritated and our voices are hoarse from so much cheering, for today we saw our first football game. Even though we did lose to East Orange, we know that West Side has a good athletic record. In fact, a new trophy case is being planned and we're hoping that by Page Forty-five Page Forty-six HISTORY of the the time we graduate it will be overcrowded with silver cups. Now that West Side is our Alma Mater, we're showing our school spirit by learning the different cheers and songs. We are going to be a great class when we become seniors! Yes, sir! A Little Freshman Sophomore Year, September, 1937-June, 1938. Dear Diary, Vacation time has ended but we can't say that we regret the thought of coming back. After swimming, hiking and participating in various sports, it feels good to settle down and turn our thoughts once more to school work. It feels good to be back in West Side again and meeting old friends, making new acquaint- ances, and seeing our teachers. We are going through the same procedure of filling out organization cards and schedules, but now we do it intelligently and skillfully because we are educated sophomores. We all feel a little blue today because we were told that Mr. Johnson, our principal, was appointed Assistant Superintendent of Schools. How- ever, we rejoice at the fact that Mr. Johnson received such a promotion and we wish him success in his new undertaking. Soon we all cheer up for we are told that Mr. Reyburn Higgins is officially welcomed as principal of West Side High. Mr. Higgins was for- merly a member of West Side's faculty. Each day becomes more interesting, dear Diary. Clubs are being organized and there is a great demand for new members. Early term parties are given by the various clubs to induce membership. We enjoy the bi-monthly assemblies in which our schoolmates take part. A most wonderful thing happened to us today, dear Diary. After receiving our report cards for the last cycle of the 2 B term, we were told to report for morning session. This is the great event we've been waiting for, but even so we are rather skeptical now. We don't know whether we will enjoy getting up so early in the morning. But on the other hand, we feel like seniors getting out at one o'clock and we also have more time for extracurricular activities. Here is the big chance for us sophomores to strut our stuff aENIUH CLASS and maybe when we become seniors we will be elected president of one of the clubs. We feel that holding these positions places a great amount of responsibility on the honored student holding the office. A num ber of us have already contributed to the Westonian five times and have become reporters. Some of us have joined the staff of the Exponent which is the feature of the Math Club. Not only joining clubs is our goal but also attending one of the senior dances where swing and waltzes are the delight of all. The seniors have sponsored a gala Christmas dance and we all had fun. Well, dear Diary, spring is here and we are all affected by this fantastic spring bug, but classes are continued as usual. We are determined to become one of the best senior classes and that goal can only be achieved by hard work. (Did someone say hard work? Why even gazing out of class windows is hard now- adays . . . | mean when the teacher catches you.) Report cards, new schedules, and good-byes bring the second lap of our relay in education to an end but we will be back in September ready to carry on. We will return to uphold the standards of West Side High. We will also be one step nearer to being sen iors for we will acquire the title of Junior. A Hopeful Sophomore Junior Year, September, 1938-June, 1939 Dear Diary: Returning to school after a two-months' vacation is not very depressing when you have acquired the title Junior. After entering the halls for the third fall term we feel right at home. Classes are familiar, locker combinations are easy now (they should be after having memorized them over and over again), and classes are once more in session. Incidentally Diary, since we have become upper classmen, we are entitled to join various clubs. How- ever, a new rule has been made that a student is to be restricted to membership in three clubs. Always remember it is better to be an active member in one club than a poor member in many clubs. This rule is strictly enforced and it brings about better coopera- tion in club work. Members are more likely to be conscious of their duties since there are not so many. Page Forty-seven ЛАК ХА Page Forty-eight HISTORY of the (Now what three clubs shall we join? . . . Which clubs are more entertaining? . . . Oh! .. Well...) We are now ardent fans of that entrancing sport, football. The Rough Riders are working hard to obtain the city championship. Speaking of hard work, we have no opportunity to be slackers for our parents are invited to meet our teachers at a Parents’ Night Program. (Are we glad? . . . Well, some of us are.) The program enables the parents to see what their child is doing in school. Our teachers inform them of our work and everyone is pleased. (Ahem!) А interesting program follows in which many clubs will participate. Another step towards higher marks is the change in rating for honor roll. Work! Work! Work! (Oh well, we find that we can't despair for soon we'll be seniors.—Only one more term to go, for after a hard term's work we have been promoted to 3 A.) Many changes are going on in West Side. A new Commercial course has been added and the faculty is being increased. The General course is being re- placed by a new Civic Course. (My, oh my, what next? ...) Diary, something has happened, something of which to be proud of. Our undefeated Rough Riders have been selected the number one Essex County football team. The reward? It's a handsome trophy. Yes, sir! The Green and Whites are superb athletes. Not only did this happen, but also, West Side's tankmen have once more retained the City swimming cham- pionship. Dear Diary, we have news for you. The faculty is now awaiting news concerning exams . . . from now on we shall have term exams. (О , molasses and sugar!) Oh well, everything is for the best. (That's for the faculty.) The exams are to be scheduled on different days and the time to take the exam is one and one-half hours. (Ninety minutes of torture and brain-racking.) Those exams will help to prepare us better for college entrance exams and will also give us a general review of the term's work (in case we don't remember anymore). Exams have come and gone and the ever-welcomed summer vacation awaits us. We will return in the fall and will expect to meet again in our classrooms. But by jingo, we will be Seniors! A Proud Junior SENIOR CLASS Senior Year, September, 1939-June, 1940 Dear Diary: Into the final stretch our senior class has come with flying colors. We are working hard because there is much to be covered in our last year. A great event is approaching. We are to attend the senior reception which it to be held in the girls' gym in honor of the graduating class of January, 1940 We have managed to mingle work with pleasure. Our senior class has sponsored its first dance . . . the Leap Year Dance. This turned out to be the largest dance held at West Side. Here, the tables turned and it was the weaker sex (the girls) who asked the young men to dance. Why even teachers were seen whirling by with one of the senior girls. Today slips were passed out to all the Senior home- rooms giving appointments to the pupils to have their pictures taken for the Year Book. We will never forget the day that we received our proofs. Boys proudly demonstrated their pictures to the girls and the girls walked and chatted at once to show their best profiles to some of their victims. Everyone was excited today, dear Diary. Our senior show is being planned. This is one event to which every class looks forward. Every senior did all in his power to show off his talent to gain a part in the Headlines Revue. Under the sole direction of our coach, Mr. Carl Goullaud, the cast was chosen and preparations made for the presentation of the show The show was presented and the seniors displayed their talents. |t was very successful. Now the yearbook is all planned. Its staff is busy writing couplets, class histories, sport articles and every other event is being covered to make our Year- book the best that West Side has even seen. It has been sent to the printer and our attention is diverted toward graduation night. We have now reached the last milestone in our secondary education and we look back at our four years in West Side as eventful, joyful, and educational. Graduation night, June twentieth, will soon be here and we shall have our diplomas in hand. We are pre- pared to go ón in life. May success be with each one of us.

On many occasions, the prowess of the athletes and the skill of the coaches have blended to create teams of champion ship caliber and sportsmanship By faithfulness to their tasks Mr. Bau mann, Mr. Dispenziere, Mr. Farrell, Mr Liddy, Mr. McEntee, Mr. Reed and Mr Reilly have already gained the respect of the entire student body. The devout attention of the athletes to their goal was also instrumental in the success of sports at West Side as were the workers behind the scenes, such as faculty advisers, ticket sellers, cheer- leaders, the band and all others who lent their untiring efforts in West Side's be- half. With such concentrated attention shown to sports the results can best be seen through a sport calendar of the im- portant athletic events since 1936. Here it is. 1936-1937 OCTOBER 1936--Т е longest gridiron consecutive winning streak in the history of West Side came to an end at thirteen games, when East Orange toppled the Rough Riders 9-2. The cross-country team coached by Mr. Baumann jogged to a 31-24 victory over Union. NOVEMBER 1936 — The Gym team started practice in the art of Indian clubs, rings and other equipment. The team has since been abandoned. Hill and Dalers captured fifth place in the annual State cross country meet and took second place in the City meet. The football teams Page Fifty-four 1940 completed the season by bowing to Irv ington 20-0. JANUARY 1937— West Side's swim- ming team achieved first victory of the campaign by sinking East Side. MARCH 1937—The natators stroked their way to second place. MAY 1937 — Coach Reed's outdoor track team gained fourth place in the Board of Education games. JUNE 1937--Т е baseball team re linquished their uniforms after scoring eight victories while bowing six times. OCTOBER 1937—Coach Liddy's eleven commenced the football season with two smashing victories over East Orange and Central NOVEMBER 1937—The cross country team achieved one triumph in three dual combats. The West Side gridiron jug- gernaut ran full tilt into a peppery East Side eleven and suffered the biggest up- set of the season at the hands of the Red Raiders. Harriers placed fourth in the City meet. MARCH 1938—The swimming team under the tutelage of the very capable Mr. Dispenziere, churned to the City Championship. JUNE 1938— The cindermen attained second place in the City meet and showed excellent form. Coach Reilly's diamond lads closed a very successful season by participating as one of the select few in the Greater Newark Tournament. Their entrance into this tourney was merited by their feat of dropping only two con- tests on their schedule. NOVEMBER 1938--Т е Rough Riders climaxed a sensational gridiron season by hammering lrvington 12-6 and thereby putting the finishing touches on an un- defeated but tied year. DECEMBER 1938—The North Jersey Pennsylvania Alumni Association awarded its coveted trophy to West Side as the outstanding eleven in Essex County. In the auditorium presentation, Mr. Liddy and the players received tremendous waves of applause MARCH 1939—-Baseball was dealt a severe blow by the transfer of Mr. Reilly to Central but Mr. Martland, faculty ad- viser, secured the services of Mr. John McEntee, former major and minor league ball player, to pilot the team. The West Side mermen successfully defended their City title and therefore re mained champions | NE 1939-- Т е baseball team ac quired undis- puted posses- sion of the City crown by marching n local opposi- tion. Mr. McEntee's nine also gained the di s tinction of being the only Newark team in the tournament before being eliminated. SENIOR YEAR OCTOBER 1939 — The West Side Rough Riders in their opening game of the season were nipped 7-O by a surpris- ingly strong East Orange eleven. The Blue and Gold victory over West Side was the first over a three year period. A week later, West Side avenged that defeat by battering Central 33-0. From the first play to the last, Central was outclassed. ek through the я 4 NOVEMBER 1939 — South Side was the next victim and it was a decisive 26-0 victory for the Rough Riders Kearny, always a hard nut to crack, fell also by the score of 7-0. Mike Genevrino insured the victory by calmly booting the conversion STRATEGIC PASS After three years of endeavor, the Green wave finally vanquished the big Blue of Barringer 6-O, at the City Stadium on October 14 before a crowd of 7,000 ES си NP c ШТ ss 4 A LETTERMEN To achieve this tremendous feat, the Rough Riders had to use a trick play which was a pass-lateral combination. The Belleville Yellow-Jackets were next stung by the thorns of the West Side offensive, 14-12. Using an unor- thodox attack, the Bellboys marched away to an early first half 12-O lead but the Green retaliated in the latter half with its crushing power. Mike Genevrino kicked the all important extra points. Page Fifty-five The West Side cross country team was defeated in its initial encounter of the season by a strong Hillside outfit, 24-31. Bill Landrigan led the green contingent to the tape when he romped in third. The following wound up in the first ten; Kub ler, fifth; Bennet, sixth; Cestone, sev enth, and Handler, tenth. A new club called the Girl's Hockey Club was formed with Miss O'Mara, a Panzer College student, acting as in structress and Miss Duncan as faculty adviser. The girls met every Monday af ternoon and Helen Murphy was the act ing captain. NOVEMBER 1939—The City Champ ionship became the sole possession of West Side when the gridiron-pounders defeated East Side 19-O. The acquisition of the crown repeated the performance of the 1935 team. Throughout the en- counter the stalwart work of Steve Zid onik, Ed Fox, Mike Genevrino, Buddy Sal- vatore and Jack Fiamingo was exhibited The Weequahic Indians were scalped, 25-7 by the Rough Riders. Coming through for their first victory of the year the West Side Harriers triumphed over a strong Union High crew to the tune of 27-28, while Bill Land rigan captured a first for the green Penalties in every period forced the West Side Rough Riders to be satisfied with a scoreless deadlock with lrvington in the final game of the year. However, West Side threatened in every period with the most spectacular advance oc- curring in the last few minutes of play. Page Fifty-six JANUARY 1940 — The Green and White natators opened their 1940 cam paign with a 44-13 victory over Arts High at the Morris Avenue pool. West Side swept almost every event with Bob Fahringer and Eddie May taking their part in the win. The most exciting meet of the swim season saw West Side sink East Side 38- 19. Mike Scoppetuolo, now at the Uni versity of Pennsylvania captured two events and broke one pool record. MARCH 1940—The swimming team presented to Coach Dispenziere а а West Side for the third time in succes- sion, the City championship. Garnering five out of six firsts West Side swamped all city opposition. Highlighting the vic tory was the smashing of the 220 yard free style record by Johnny Russo. He clipped more than a second off the prev- ious record when he touched the tile in 2:42 3. PRODIGAL TENNIS Tennis returned to West Side after an absence of five years. Two seniors, Irv- ing Crystal and Robert Sobelson, revived the thought of the reappearance of that sport and with the aid of Mr. Higgins, Mr. Martland, Mr. Ervin, and Mr. Farrell it became a reality. APRIL 1940—Only four veterans аге available for track. They are Leon Wat- son, John Kaelberer, Joe Hicks and Jack Connolly. However, the entire junior team which won the championship last year was among those present and helped give the team a successful year. PRINTED BY PROGRESS PUBLISHING CO PLASTIC BINDING U. S.
