LL ےج سد‎ کی یں A vr Se IA مین کہ زی ات یچ ca‏ وی Published by the CLASS OF JANUARY 1942 WEST SIDE HIGH SCHOOL NEWARK, NEW JERSEY Mariay Cords. T moral of Oliver Wendell Holmes’ “The Chambered Nautilus was indelibly engraved in our minds during our senior English course. Because it seemed to apply itself so well to our position in life it was decided to make the poem the theme of our yearbook In the creation of this class record, we hope that we have fulfilled our resolution that the shackles of tradition and custom should be sent to the lowest depths of the sea by the swelling waves of originality. Our readers may feel certain, however, that we have kept in mind the fact that our year- book should be a pleasing and accurate account of our high school career. We have honestly and conscientiously striven for the attainment of this end and are confident that the result will be satisfactory to you, the members of our class principal The Heritage |, the heir of all the ages in the foremost files of time Tennyson What is it you inherit, Heirs of the ages past? Wrung from a thousand centuries What is yours at last? Tenets of truth and honor, The right of the common man To reap the grain of his sowing Thus since the world began The right to love and laughter, To the brisk wind blowing free, To the primal scent of new-turned earth, To the stars and the sea. What of the great inventions To aid man toward his goal? These are but dust and ashes And mockery to the soul. What of the ancient hatreds Instilled from the first-drawn breath; Dancing to Satan's piping, Drawing the nations to death? Hatred and war are fetters, Man-made machines but toys; Each age spurns those of its fathers, Eager for newer joys. Only the things of the spirit Abide forever and aye; These are the things you inherit, ‘Tis these that are yours today. [Pey burn 7 B 99 ires REYBURN A.

This consists of two persons from every senior homeroom chosen by the students. Miss Cora Hill and Mr. Andrew Siska stood by to guide and advise. The senate's responsibilities were many, and through there efficiency in planning senior activities, the Class of January, 1942 has had many interesting times. THE CHAMBERED NAUTILUS This is the ship of pearl, which, poets feign, Sails the unshadowed main, Â The venturous bark that flings On the sweet summer wind its purpled wings In gulfs enchanted, where the Siren sings, And coral reefs lie bare, Where the cold sea-maids rise to sun their streaming hair. Its webs of living gauze no more unfurl; Wrecked is the ship of pearl! And every chambered cell, Where its dim dreaming life was wont to dwell, As the frail tenant shaped his growing shell, Before thee lies revealed, — Its irised ceiling rent, its sunless crypt unsealed! Year after year beheld the silent toil That spread his lustrous coil; Still, as the spiral grew, He left the past year's dwelling for the new, Stole with soft steps its shining archway through, Built up its idle door, Stretched in his last-found home, and knew the old no more. Thanks for the heavenly message brought by thee, Child of the wandering sea, Cast from her lap, forlorn! From thy dead lips a clearer note is born Than ever Triton blew from wreathed horn! While on my ear it rings, Through the deep caves of thought | hear a voice that sings:— Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul, As the swift seasons roll! Leave thy low-vaulted past! Let each new temple, nobler than the last, Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast, Till thou at length art free, Leaving thine outgrown shell by life's unresting sea! —OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES Helen Adler 189 HUNTERDON STREET If Helen's plans to enter Rutgers School for Pharmacy are not fulfilled, she will en- roll at a business school Helen was a member of the Latin Club, Science Club, the Social Welfare C and the Girls Service Club.

One is the happy days he enjoyed while helping out on the Technical staff of the Senior Show; the other is that “Anchors Aweigh” will become a reality that might change James' entire life.

No one who came to rehearsals for two weeks, remaining until 5:30, will ever forget the fun we had. But it wasn't all fun either. Often it meant just hard work. There were times when we felt that if we had to sing another chorus of ''l Am An American” our voices would crack. Sometimes our favorite number, “Time Was”, sounded so off-key that even we knew it was bad. And sometimes it seemed that everybody in the show had forgotten his lines, his music, and his dance steps. Before the curtain went up on Friday, November 14, many of us were afflicted with stage-fright and nervousness. But when the curtain finally rose and the audience became hushed, our nervousness passed, and the show went on. The skits, the jokes, the songs, and the dances, all helped to make ‘’Anchors Aweigh” very entertaining. Everyone who had anything to do with the show deserves much credit for the success of the final production. We are very grateful to them. We are also grateful to the teachers who assisted us, the make-up department, the underclass- men, to everyone who helped make our show what it was. To Mr. Rogers, our very able director, should go a great deal ot credit for taking a group of amateurs and turning out an en- tertaining show. A W £ G H R Director OGERS HERE have been better teams at West Side, and there have been worse. However, we can proudly and honestly say, that never has a football squad of past years shown a better fighting heart or a greater will to win, than has our present group of boys We extend our thanks to Mr. Anthony Naporano, our new coach, and his staff, for their untiring efforts in the development of our players. We are confident that, under their tutelage and guidance, it will not be so far off in the future when we again shall have one of the “top” teams in the state. Thanks and congratulations should also be extended to the general stu- dent body, which, supporting its team through thick and thin, has shown a greater school spirit than has been shown in more successful football years. Out of respect for Walter Eisele, fatally injured player of South Side, the West Side-Weequahic game was cancelled.

Judging from the number of seniors participating in the extra-curricular activities, the answer was obviously in the affirmative. ۱۴ we liked to belong to a club that helped around school, we joined a club of that kind. Students join- ed clubs in which they could express their opinions on any subjects of interest to them. We also became members of clubs that provided recreation and entertainment. With these va- ried activities, it is evident that many students of our class liked the social life they lead at West Side. Meetings of the clubs are held after class sessions. Many of the students get ac- quainted at these social gatherings and become true friends. Fun is enjoyed by all. This fun is supplied, to a great extent, from the adviser in charge. He provides his pupils with laughter and knowledge gained by his experiences The election of officers is a great event for all the members of the clubs. A quality which is greatly exhibited by this event is leadership. Leadership is vital for the man who wishes to succeed. As we rest in our easy chair a number of years from now, we may look upon our social activities at West Side as a milestone to our success in society.

The time Miss Fisher renamed Sey- mour Graifman, Say-more Graifman. The bright remark oí a brilliant scho- lar of Solid Geometry that said the polygon on the board was a quadrila- teral triangle. The air-raid practice school dismissal that caused the fifth and sixth periods to be omitted. Your impression of West Side when you first entered beneath its wings of knowledge. The time Miss Fisher told Shirley Kinsey that she was petite but not in- finitesimal. The epidemic of measles in our Se- nior year that nearly forced the school to shut down. The rush to complete the examination papers before the proctor collected them after the passing bell had sounded. The glorious feeling of the last day of each succeeding term when your card stated that you had passed all your subjects. (We hope!) The time Monroe was not sporting a new girl friend's picture in his wallet. (We don't!) WEATHER FORECAST: Fair and Colder For Further Details Look Out Your Window No. 00062 A SCHOOL TRAGEDY The first thing that occurred to me, as I awoke, was that the alarm clock had not gone off. I looked at the blank expression on the clock’s f ace, and discovered that it was a quarter to eight. This brought me to the realiza- tion that I would be late to school. Then I decided that the best and easi- est course to take would be to stay at home. My mother thought differently, however. No sense in rushing though. I would get detention no matter how late I was. Well, by this time it was ten min- utes to eight. So I got up slowly and without much effort. Ah! it was great to be free from the dreadful clutches of time. I will not bore my dear readers with a tedious account of my washing, dressing, and eating. Let it suffice to say that I did wash, dress, and eat that morning. I ran to the corner, and of course, missed the bus. It seemed an eternity until another bus came along, and when I got on, I had to stand. Well, sir, the bus just crawled along. It stopped at every corner, and made every light, yes, the red ones. Finally I reached my destination, jumped off the bus, and made a dash to my homeroom in nothing flat. Just as I reached the door, the bell rang. I got inside just as the sound died away. The teacher did not say a word, just pointed. I knew by experience just what that meant. I was to march right down to the office and sign the late book. One period of detention, and the day hadn’t even started. But all this was nothing to what happened later on. Next I went to my first period class, and there I get another period of deten- tion for being late to class. The day just crept along at a snail's pace, but nothing of real importance happened. True, there were more pe- riods of detention for not handing in any homework. And once I was re- primanded by my English teacher for using incorrect grammar. Now to get on with the story. As I said before, nothing of real impor- tance occurred until I went to deten- | tion class. Then “it” happened. _ I was determined to take my med- icine like a man. Just then I happened (Continued on next page) A School Tragedy (Cont'd) to glance in the far side of the room. My eyes continued to move around the room, but something on that far side of the room attracted my attention. This time I looked intently, and in a split second “it” happened. There on the far side of the room was a girl! But wait. This was no ordinary girl. This creature was the most beautiful girl I had ever set eyes on. Yes, after all these years, I had at last fallen in love. True, I had been in love be- fore, but not like this. This was the real thing. Maybe this day would turn out to be alright after all. Slowly I edged my way over to where she was sitting. I looked into her eyes. What eyes! Cool and limpid eyes, they were. Ah, me! I shall never forget those sapphire orbs. She had chestnut brown hair, too. Her red lips parted to show a set of glowing, white teeth. She had flawless complexion, and oh, she was exquisite! I was just about to speak to her when the teacher noticed that I had changed my seat. He told me to go back across the room. I would have argued with him, if the girl had not given me an ARGONAUT even under tables, have an advertisement in the Westonian and the Newark Evening News. And now, dear reader, I have come to you for aid. I beg of you on bended knees, if you know a girl who fits this descrpition, please refer her to me. And if by any chance the girl has read this story, I ask I want to I want to tell her that she has a run in her stocking. Ha! her to come to me at once. tell her something.

So please remember to do that little thing boys. She'll love it. Never have a car. You know there's nothing like an invigorating stroll, es- pecially when she has been standing up for eight hours, working in the local 5 and 10. Always speak in a voluminous tone when you're not supposed to. Every one will turn around and stare. Then Margie's face will become as red as fire. (You'll really be doing her a favor, for there's nothing so becoming to a girl as a blush.) When you meet one of your girl friends who is just coming home from the store, loaded down with packages, don't you dare offer to carry some of them home for her. After all, you have the evening newspaper to contend with and that's enough weight for one per- son to be carrying around. And when you take her to a formal, make sure you don't ever make an hon- est attempt to get up and dance.
