This year our city will wrap up its two hundredth and ninety-ninth year of working for liberty, peace and prosperity. If one could follow the story of our city from its humble beginning to the present day, he would appreciate the dignity and opportunity of Ye Towne on Ye Pesayak. Newark has blessed its people with opportunity, from the time of the Pilgrims until our own time. As our city pauses on the threshold of the tri-centenarv year, it is fitting that its future citizens review the history of Newark. One could buy Newark in 1666 for fifty double hands of powder, one hundred bars of lead, 20 axes, 20 coatcs, 10 guns, 20 pistols, 10 kettles, 10 swords, 4 blankets, four barrells of beer, 10 pairs of breeches, 50 knives, 20 bowes, 850 fathem of warn pen, 2 ankors of licqucrs and 3 troopes coates. On July 11, 1667, thirty Puritan families from Connecticut under the leadership of Robert Treat purchased from the Hackensack Indians our home town. Tin's tract of land from the mountains to the Passaic River was a wilderness cut by Indian trails which the natives used to travel from Delaware, their K66-I96S centuries of progress i — J e Black ntemlftaarnt represent r is Heme.

Here the Puritans wished to establish the Kingdom of God on earth. Newark was the final effort of the Puritans in that direction. Newark was first governed by Robert Treat, the pastor Reverend Abraham Pierson and three other leading men. In less than a year after settlement the town meeting began to choose officers to attend to the business of the town. By 1670 five select men were elected annually to have general charge of town affairs. The center of this land of abundant natural resources was designated as Broad and Market Streets. The former was an old Indian trail, the latter was intersected by a brook. The settlers were each given six acres as a homestead. Eight acres were given to Captain Robert Treat, the site on which stands the First Presbyterian Church on Broad Street. A military ground. Military Park, was established. Other necessary public facilities such as a market place, W ashington Park, a watering place and the burying ground were established. A church was erected on Broad Street and Branford Place. It was to serve for religious services and a fortress against possible hostile Indians. Reverend Abraham Pierson was chosen minister, and the town was called Newark after Newark in England, where Mr. Pierson preached before he came to America. The growth of the community was rapid. The settlers worked hard at building homes and working farm lands. As the town prospered other settlers came, and by 1671 Henry Lyon opened the first inn. He was cautioned by the Puritan leaders against entertaining strangers indiscriminately. The farmers took their products to New York where they exchanged them for tools and products from England. The orchards about the town yielded an excellent cider which began a side line industry. A mill was built to grind corn into meal. In 1676 the first school with John Catling as schoolmaster was founded, for those children who were able to pay the fee. The tannery was started on Market Street near Springfield Avenue. There was little social life in the early years. The church and work were the chief things in all men’s minds. If anyone entertained young folks after nine o’clock at night he was liable to a fine unless he had permission from one of the town officers. Boys and girls, fun loving as always, posed a problem, and the town appointed an officer to sec that they behaved properly during the church services, which were compulsory for all citizens. This settlement grew in peace and prosperity. In 1773 Colonel Ogden saved his wheat from ruin by reaping it on a Sunday. He was publicly censured by the church and as a result Trinity Episcopal Church was founded. Princeton University moved to Broad Street and Branford Place, Newark in 1747 where it grew in nine years under the charge of Reverend Aaron Burr, pastor of the “Old First” Presbyterian Church and father of the Vice President of the United States. In 1774 Essex County held a meeting to protest the tyrannies of the Crown and selected delegates to the first Congress. By 1776 Newark Old First Presbyterian Church stood on Broad Street about where Branford Place now begins. It is the oldest fully organized church congregation in New Jersey. men were drilling in Military Park; Trinity Church and the Old First were converted into soldiers' hospitals. British and Continental troops in turn held the town throughout the Revolution. Minute men drilled in the training ground; and did not cease fighting until the necessity was over. General Washington after being selected by the Continental Congress as Commander in Chief of the Army stayed in Newark. He wished to fight the British in Newark but did not have enough troops to aid him. When the people received word of Washington’s capture of the Hessians at Trenton, the town rejoiced. Gifford’s Tavern7 on Broad and Market Streets became well-known as planters from the south frequently stopped here. It opened shortly after the War of Independence and was a resort for all people passing through the country. Newark began its trade with the south. Washington Irving wrote many essays at Cockloft Hall, and was often entertained at Gifford’s Tavern. Park House on the cast side of Park Place opposite tlie southern end of Military Park. Lafayette and Washington were both entertained here. Henry Clay made an address from the steps, November 20, 1833. Moses Combs is known to be the first manufacturer to send goods to the south. He made shoes well and taught the people of Newark to sell their goods. At one time one third of the people in Newark manufactured shoes. We began sending shoes far and wide. Delving into the progress of industry Seth Boyden worked hard and diligently in this field. He made the tools that the people used in their work, constructed the first locomotive used on the Morris and Essex Railroad, was the first manufacturer of patent leather in this country and made numerous other inventions. Surely mankind has benefited from his effort and hard work. Many prominent men have lived or visited the tow’n. Lafayette who had a great deal to do with the ending of the War of Independence visited Newark in 1824. Vice President Aaron Burr was bom here in 1756. The French diplomat Talleyrand made his home here for a short while. On his way to Washington before his inauguration Abraham Lincoln stayed here. Thomas Edison did much of his experimenting on inventions in Newark. The speaking part of the telephone and telegraph instruments were made here. The population expanded and the industries boomed. Newark was on its way to become the thriving metropolis we know today. As a plant growing in good soil, our city ripened into a fruitful center offering a good life of work and satisfaction to all. ! !The Old Court House, on Broad Street, was the site of one of the first meetings in the entire province of New Jersey to protest against the tyranny of King George the Third. I I Life has a value only when it has something valuable as its object. Hegel MR. CHARLES BRODSKY Principal Mr. Brodsky, our principal, devotes his time to the many cares and plans which require the attention of a chief administrator. It is his job to see that the teachers and students arc able to work together to their fullest satisfaction. He must set the pattern for the school and at the same time keep himself alert for newer, more successful educational trends. Our principal does not believe solely in academic adjustment but encourages students toward fuller social adjustment. He is aware that we, his students, arc the future citizens of Newark and as such must be ready to accept the future challenges of the city. He takes particular delight in helping students achieve their goals, such as college admittance or obtaining a job after graduation. We could compare Mr. Brodsky to the Rev. Aaron Burr, under whose supervision Princeton flourished for eight years in Newark. Rev. Burr was a leader and educator; indeed Mr. Brodsky is too. He has given us purpose and encouragement which will prove itself in coming years. 10 MR. ALVIN PANZER Vico Principal MR. ROBERT LETT Assistant to the Principal Mr. Panzer, our vice principal, spends many tedious hours planning schedules and school procedures. Our day at West Side runs smoothly because he has made changes which help the school to function more efficiently. Through careful scheduling, he has made the classrooms and school buildings less congested. We arc able to work in a more relaxed atmosphere. Truly, he possesses the spirit of the Newark Founding Fathers; he works hard at meeting the needs of the present and future classes of West Side High School. We, the class of June 1965, wish him continued success in his future years at West Side. Even.- city has a set of laws which must be obeyed. At times, though, these laws are forgotten and misconstrued. This is an offense which must be corrected; and there are men for this job. So it is at West Side. There is only one big difference, we have only one man who acts as a corrector. This man is Mr. Lett, who is an assistant to the principal. He is also our guide and leader, but most of all he is our friend. When we need help in coping with our problems, we turn to Mr. Lett. He is a “big brother” for all students. 11 Mclvyn Betmas Lucille Ceriello Dtimonl N. Commlu Tlwmu J. Cooke. J Catherine Cullinwre Carmen Dhpenrierc Cloria D’Orio Walter E.

MRS. LOUISE MICHIN 14 When Robert Treat founded Newark in 1666, he immediately set out to advise the people in important matters and to help them think more constructively. His programs were based directly upon efficiency and precise actions. Mr. Treat did not necessarily believe in mixing work with pleasure, but he did believe in working your way to pleasure. In this manner people work even harder than usual so they can enjoy their socializing more fully. Although a great deal is attributed to this great adviser, even more should be said of our senior class advisers, Mrs. Minchin and Mr. Nicholas. We made the plans and they worked with us every day to make sure our activities proved rewarding. Our Junior Prom, because of the good advice we had received proved a great success. Following that event preparations were begun on our winter dance. Once again Mrs. Minchin and Mr. Nicholas kept us going with their helpful advice. Thanks to them we gained another feather for our caps by producing another success. Because of us our advisers never l ad a moment’s rest. They were constantly busy up until a minute before graduation. We could never put into words the thanks we have for these two wonderful people. Mrs. Minchin and Mr. Nicholas, we have enjoyed working with you, as you patiently carried the burdens that accompanied our senior class. Our hearts are filled with gratitude as we say thank you to Mrs. Minchin and Mr. Nicholas. MR. DONALD NICHOLAS Guidance Counselors The senior year is the most crucial year of high school. We must study sufficiently and adequately so that we will graduate. Our college applications must Ik filled out and senior dues must be paid. Class ratings are considered and jobs must be found. You want to buy your school ring and pictures. Your tension builds up. You often feel discouraged and need assistance in making up your mind. You can’t wait until the final day. Will it ever come? A student is greatly comforted by the fact that we have an excellent guidance department to turn to when we can no longer cope with our problems. Here we found understanding and an answer to our problems. A great deal of strength is gained by the feeling of being understood. Mr. Friedman and Mr. Kapner are the persons who have helped us fill out these college applications, find a job and answer our questions plus solve our problems. They are the ones that were always beside us when we were troubled. Not only did they help solve our school problems but their help was often extended to our family problems. These men understood us and really helped us. They were always considerate, friendly and kind, but most of all they eased the pressure of our challenging senior year. Money could never begin to repay them for their thoughtful deeds. The only thing we can offer them is “thanks and by our future achievements in life, prove to them how greatly we appreciated their guidance. Without the helping hands of these two men we know that this senior year would have been a hard trek through the wilderness, but because of their guiding light the path was more easily traveled. We offer our heartfilled thanks and gratitude for a job well done. MR. IRVING FRIEDMAN MISS ANNE MAZE1KA MR. HERMAN KAPNER Look out world . . . here we come Are West Side students ready to be citizens? The answer is yes! Simply because in essence, West Side is our private metropolis. We’re taking from our school standards which will abide with us and guide our entrance into the adult world. We’ve lived congenially regardless of race, creed, or religion. Our four years at West Side have l een filled with pleasant memories which we can never forget. Never again will we have the opportunity West Side has offered us. When we as graduates walk through West Side portals, we can truly say we have been fostered in a full life and are ready to assume our positions in the world. Our gratitude is extended to West Side for lessons in educational and American living which we can apply to everyday living as citizens of Newark. Class Praise is due to the accomplished students who have assumed the leadership of various school organizations. They have been singled out for their scholastic accomplishments, service and qualities of leadership which have distinguished them among their classmates. Here, nearly three hundred years later, we find the same qualities which were possessed by the founding fathers of Newark. These future citizens are able to carry on in the democratic tradition; leading their fellow citizens toward a life of peace and prosperity. We of West Side take pride in these leaders and wish them continued success in the future years.

As the town grew so did the activities through the school system. Newark realizes the importance of giving opportunities to enrich the life of the student beyond school work. In our school there is a vast network of clubs which affords the future Newark citizen the opportunity to develop skills and co-operative abilities. Through these activities students utilize the knowledge gained in class. This is an opportunity to put into practice skills and theories in a limited society. No one can assay the value of this program; we can only see its effect through generation after generation of Newarkers who are able to meet the problems of society. If we are able to face life and work with realities ... if we know how to take success and disappointment in stride . . . if we are not discouraged but go on working against all odds . . . it is because we have learned these traits through the many activities which a city truly interested in its youth has provided. 82 The Yearbook Staff is a group of seniors who devote their efforts to producing the final memento of the class of 1965. Their editors have been selected for their skills and representativeness of the average senior. Margaret Tate assumed the all powerful role of Editor-in-Chief. She dedicated her efforts toward producing the l� est yearbook West Side lias ever had. Her tasks include planning the theme, plotting the pages and organizing the work submitted by her classmates. Carolyn Hill, Assistant Editor-in-Chief aids the editor in organizing copy and keeps a careful eye on the calendar for deadlines. She supervises the staff to see that copy is submitted on time. Margaret Malachoski, Literary Editor, sets the standard for the written work, while Patricia Monta-balno, Secretarial Editor sees that the data is typed up and submitted to the printer. Gloria Brown. Art Editor, is responsible for the page layouts of the book. This includes picture spacing and art work which develop the theme. Committees Sports Editor, Dennis Bagley, reports on the athletic events of the year. Feature Editor, Jean Fresco collects writings which are designed to capture the lighter spirit of the seniors’ life. Christine Mudry, Photography Editor, sets up the schedule for the photographer and decides which pictures will he used for publication. Last hut far from least is Charles Kisselman, Research Editor, who obtains that information which is needed by the editor. Special mention is due Patricia Davenport, our Girl Friday. She is the only senior who appeared every day to see if there was any work to he done. Pat has written, typed and proofread many articles in this hook. There they are, your staff . . . those who have devoted their year to writing the class diary. In years to come you may not remember their faces or their names but their work will remain as a permanent memory of West Side’s Class of 1965. WESTON1AN BUSINESS STAFF Kneeling: Warren Williams.

Colonial Newark teenagers would work off excessive energy doing one of the many chores about the home or farm. As years passed and our city became an urban community, the leaders of the town became aware of the need to supply the youth of Newark with challenges to develop the potential of the mind and body. Some physical activity must be supplied to the Newark youth who no longer engaged in rural activities. Profitable recreation through sports was established as a traditional part of the Newark School System. Today sports are continued as a device to bring out the best physically and mentally in a student. Newark has kept faith with its forefathers by providing opportunities for the youth to profit by in future years. We leave West Side having taken part in both academic and athletic lives which have prepared us to measure up to our civic duties. Willie Nelson All-City, All-County l cnnie N ardour All-City Showing the spirit that coach Tom Higgins . instills in his football teams, the 1964 team went out to battle. The pre-season favorites, West Side, started out the season with four wins, continuing a seven game winning streak. During the middle of the season the loss of several key players to minor injuries cheeked West Side’s usually powerful offense and defense for the rest of the season. to the Gridiron The Highlights of this year’s team included the selection of Cary Hayes to the All-State team. Other players honored by All-Citv, All-County, and Metropolitan selections were: Willie Nelson, All-Citv and All-County; Lenny Nardone, All-Citv; Bob Hue, All-Citv; Dennis Jackson, All-Citv. Other outstanding ballplayers who deserve mention are: Herl ert Robinson, tackle; Richard Singerline, guard; John DiCocco, tackle. Bud Walton and Ronnie Austin, our two ample left halfbacks; Ulysses McDowell, defensive halfback; Bill Lewzck, linebacker; Walt Stcpien, wingback: Pete Francis, halfback; and the team’s player coach John Brundrige. The Yearbook wishes to congratulate the team for a job well done. Soccer is becoming more popular among West Side students. This fast moving sport is all the more amazing because of the unusual format of the game. A player, wearing little protective equipment, must control the unpredictable movements of the ball without using his hands. After running swiftly to the ball the player must kick the ball with precision. The team spirit and will to win is a tribute to the team and their coach, Mr. Danilow. Together they have inspired the students to take interest in this sport and appreciate the talents required of a team member. CAPTAIN, WALTER NESTORENKO AND COACH DANILOW Soccer Two Seasons in One” - This year’s Roughrider quintet recently finished what was termed by Coach Bakum as a successful two season campaign. “We lost our 6-4 leading scorer-rebounder Richard Britton at mid-year graduation and we had to make adjustments. This was like an entirely new season,” stated Coach Bakum. Dennis Bagley and Dennis Jackson took up the scoring slack; Ulysses McDowell, defensive specialist, was moved to an offensive high post; Carl Watkins, a 6-5 sophomore jumping jack, was placed in the starting line-up; and Gary Venturi was inserted into the starting line-up. The Roughriders completed the season with a 14-8 record. The season opened with a 66-30 thrashing of Barringer. In their outing the aggressive Rough-riders annihilated the Vailsburg five by the overwhelming score of S6-19. The next game was perhaps the best-played and the most satisfying game of the season; it was a 56-45 conquest of state, county, and city champion South Side. Then came the Christmas tournament. West Side easily conquered its first two opponents, Bayonne and Essex Catholic, before bowing to Central in the final. In that final game two West Side starters were forced out of the game due to injuries and foul trouble. The team lost the next two contests to Weequahic and Central again, before bouncing back to win four straight against East Side, Barringer, Vailsburg, and Scton Hall. Successful The Roughriders rally fell short and they found themselves on the short end of a 65-60 decision against South Side. West Side then dropped a one-point decision to Wcequahic. In the following game Dennis Bagley pumped in 18 of 22 field goal attempts and 7 of 9 foul shots for 43 points, but despite his brilliant efforts West Side dropped an 88-80 overtime decision to Central. The Green then defeated Newark Tech and East Side. In the opening round of the Essex County Tournament the Roughriders ripped Livingston. In the quarter final round of the tournament the Roughriders dropped a 49-48 decision in overtime to Bloomfield. They had a chance to wrap it up in regulation time when score-keeper Howard Schwartzman spotted a technical foul and West Side was given a free shot with the score tied 43-43 and 18 seconds remaining. In the following game it was Clark 63-38. In the opening round of the state tournament the Roughriders slaughtered Millburn 70-44. South Side defeated West Side in the semifinal round of state tournament play 63-45. The final statistics were: Rich Britton averaged 20 points per game, Carl Watkins hauled down 18 rebounds per contest, Dennis Bagley was the scorer with 384 points. Ulysses McDowell led the team with a 70% field goal percentage followed by Rich Britton with 65%, Dennis Bagley with 64%, and Dennis Jackson with 50%. Swimming West Side’s swimming team offers the boys a chance to take to the water. Under the direction of Coach Thomas Cooke the members of the team work hard at developing their skill and endurance. The boys spend their after-school hours getting in shape for swimming meets. The boys are trained to do their best in a meet and display the skills which are evidence of hours of work with a devoted coach. 96 Wrestling Wrestling is a sport which requires strenuous conditioning and great self discipline. The utmost of dedication is necessary to get the participant in top shape for the sport. It is a game where hand to hand combat goes into action. The hoys must be physically fit and able to wrestle. They use great strength and energy to overcome their opponents. Working as a team, the boys used all their ability and effort to win the match. Under the supervision of Mr. Waters team spirit is promoted and careful training for a rugged match goes into play. TRACK Mr. Cadson with West Side's finest Few boys can resist the call of outdoor track. The sport seems to challenge youth to match the fair weather with the spirits of their bodies. Under the encouraging eye of Mr. Edward Gadson West Side students groom their skills in the various track and field events. Unlike other team competitions track offers a student a chance to match his individual talents against the mass. It is no wonder that this sport has proven popular from time’s very beginning until our own. Here a man can prove his mettle and perform to the fullest of his abilities. DAVE MELCHIONE, BOB RUE, WALT STEPIEN DENNIS JACKSON HERB ROBERTSON JOHN CRIESI CLAUSE!.!. WOODRUFF FLOYD LANG, WILL NELSON Baseball PETER CAMPISI In spring a young man’s fane)' turns to baseball. The fresh warm air calls the young men of West Side to the ball field. Under the careful eye of Coach Dispenziere the team groomed for a successful season. Members trained and exercised to bring out the skills necessary in a winning team. The pitching ability of Eddie Walton and Roger Liggon was perhaps the biggest asset of the team. The infield was covered by Charles Talley first base, Frank Tilin' second base, Peter Campisi third base, and Gary Venturi short stop. The playing skill of Roger I.iggon, Robert Brown, and Ray Moses in the infield, rounded out the powerful team. Nate Brown and John Dawson behind the plate were invaluable in their evaluation of opposing batters. Twirlers Antoinette Agrillo Sandra Clarke JoAnn Cochran LaVeme Coles Patty Davenport Joyce Kondroski Wlmt is a parade without fine twirlers? Every Saturday afternoon during football season and at even’ parade, West Side twirlers arc seen stepping high. Twenty-four girls, led by Head Majorette, Christine Mudry; Captain, Ix rraine Patania; Co-Captains, Marcella White, Jane Parratt, and Connie Saunders, put on a unique performance with awe inspiring ability. The twirlers grace all of the football games in any weather with the same enthusiasm to represent West Side and represent it well. Ccnia Maciopa Sonia Marara Janet Moore Chris Mudry 102 Jane Parratt Linda Pcllinrino Jean Reeves Christine Cousins Patricia Yablonicky Yvonne CauRhman As our girls march in those long, often tiring parades, they never cease to l e cheerful and to handle those batons with a natural deftness that only West Side twirlers have. When our senior twirlers leave we will all find that the twirlers must leave West Side but West Side will always Ik a part of our twirlers. What is a parade without fine twirlers? West Side will never know. Constance Saunders Jackie Turner Marcella White Sandra White I-orraine Patania Cheerleaders Marlene Peacock Barbara Moore Mamie Hudson Hcrta Neiss Our active and attractive cheerleaders helped us throughout the year to victory. Game after game their spirit and talent was aroused. Their green and white uniforms never seemed to stop jumping around. During football season, no matter what the weather turned out to be they led our fans on to cheer our team. However, once football season was completed, their job was Linda Robert Lourccn Sheffield Captain Joyce Murray Pcarlcttc Allen Kathleen Slieppcrd Audrey Gamer not. Next was the task to cheer on our vigorous basketball players. Here they also demonstrated their talent and skill. The part of being a cheerleader is not an easy one. It is a very hard, energetic job. Our girls must have poise, showmanship, and a standard scholastic average that must be kept throughout the year. Saundra Simjnon Mary Balkum Margo Pucccrello 1965 Faculty On a cold bleak day in January, the seniors once again attempted to unseat the faculty. On the faculty team there were players such as: “Dunker Higgins”, Swish’em Me Elroy”, “Baskets Wacker”, “Free-Throw Bennett , “Stealer Nicholas . Jumping-Jack Wilder”, and a cast of others. The student players, taken from the members of the Monogram Club, included such great stars as: Kid” Ray Rossman, Fred Hawk, Rich Old Man Singerline, Herbert Creeper” Robinson, Wonderful” Walt Stepien, “Pleasant Pete Campisi, Casual” Carl Ruebottom, “Happy” Gary Hayes. “Leeping” Lester Davis, and many more stars too numerous to name. The teachers controlled the tap-off and scored the first points. The heat of the battle was so fierce that Student Game student substitution was limited. Sharp shooting by both sides highlighted the first quarter. The vast experience of the students showed, as they came with ten points of the faculty at half-time. The second half was no different from the first, point wise, as the teachers continued to overwhelm the students, but little did they know what was in store for them in the last quarter. The fourth quarter began with two quick baskets by Mr. I-ott. The students retaliated with two foul shots. Not to lx? outdone, the referees Dennis Jack-son and Richard Britton scored three baskets for the students. The game was almost on ice for the students when Richie Singerline tossed in a jump shot from thirty feet out as the buzzer sounded.

The weeks of study and hard work seemed to be of no consolation to the class as they mumbled and stumbled about Notes and last-minute review sheets appeared like snow on a tree. The instructor entered and carefully checked the materials. Tension mounted as the exam of exams drew near. Then, with a tone of fatality the instructor summoned the class to order, “Cast ready? Dim the lights. Music up. Curtain timer “The Divine Melanie” was never as divine as these Seniors made it. A combination of My Fair Lady, “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. and a touch of “Bye-Bye Birdie,” the schemes and involvements of the Melanie aspiring advertising tycoons to transform a beast into a beauty seemed to spill over the stage and into the imagination of the audience. It is true that some actors looked ‘all wet that others ‘danced out of this world that someone was quite disturbed knowing 'for whom the bell tolls and that ‘no one was himself but the show went successfully on. “The Divine Melanie was a real Senior triumph even though, being a comedy, there wasn't any laughter-only hilarity.

Crover Troutman was motivating along when Carolyn Usher, making a left turn, bumped into Mary Waresk, who was making a right turn because Andrew Varga was on a oneway stretch. Steve O'Neil was tailgaiting behind Walter Nisto-cenko while Linda Nicastro talked to Norma Scott and De-lanccy Sellers. Michelle Sheehan had to make a U turn for she wanted to go to the 800‘s and was late for French class. John Sales made a K turn ansi humps-sl into Norma Santiago who in turn bumped into Nelson Mendez and he clashed with Betty Miller and Richard Monaco because they were making left turns. There were many serious injuries. Shera Moore had a compound fractured fingernail, Barbara Mosley lost a strain of hair; Floyd Lang stumped his toe. The victims were left to l e cared for by Icola Lassiter, Arlene Levcns, and Elaine Mak-aszow. Ingram Martin, I very Marable, and Gregory Piegaro, the police, arrived to find things in quite a mess. They conferred and decided there was circumstantial, irxcvelant information and that the accident was nobody’s fault. FUROR OVER FINK!! Residents Resent Name of Road “Change it to any other name but ‘Fink’,” said Mitchell Miller of 316 Fink Road, Fiendish Township. Miller along with Merrill. Patrick, and Roberson all of Fiendish Township feels “Fink is a traditional conservative two by four name and should be abandoned. Moschello, Pezza, Rose and Russo, other residents of the 1,000 foot road off Corridor 3, have petitioned the Fiendish Unfriendly Committee for a change of name. m Mr. Lawrence Fuller explains “I’ve had my pad here four years, man, and I never dug the name. man. Now they are running off at the lip on T.V. about it all the time. ’You Fink’ means a guy's a bum and that’s really tear-jerking, man, really it is.1 Zennon Fill said: The conservatives driving by here see the sign Fink Road' and right away they go wild oxer it. They holler and scream like Beatle fan and have Pink Finkish Fits.

Mary Trapp was also a bystander but was too shy” to speak. Lt. Thornes along with Sergeants Tinney and Tolor arrived on the scene promptly, but the bandits escaped. Johnnie Walker, Rosetta Wallace and Dolly Watkins said they could identify the bandits. So if you hear of some fellows who entered the Girls' Gym don’t be shocked. How are they supposed to know one “Yin from another “Ym since they stole the C’s? Carmony said: A brand new “Fink Road” sign was stolen by the Traditional three months ago. They wanted it for their school door. Mrs. Joann Manns of 219 Corridor Avenue, said a new street name was needed lie-cause evidently fink means squaw, and as we're all hipsters we’re just not too hip to the name. Mayor Hartman said she would try to dig the matter if it hasn’t been planted too deep. GUERRILLAS ATTACK ON PLAIN OF JARS Last Report On Viet Jam Last night the notorious Viet Jamese leader.

When last seen she was being spirited along Third Avenue clutching the purple covered tome titled “The Memoirs and Poems of a Small Town Girl. Madame Patterson has been a controversial figure in American Literature for the past eighteen years. She belongs to the “Fink School of Writing” which includes such eminent authors as Peter Frances, author of ‘The Non-American Tragedy”, Dennis Bagiev “Sports in Short Shorts”, Clarence Moore ‘This Hough Magic” (called school), Raymond McKee ‘‘Gone With The Fiend”, Norma Johnson “You Only Live Twice (I’m making this one count), and Frank Phillips wlio is famous for his Ordeal and Triumph” (it's about time). The well known Sister Magwood also went to this “Fink School”, she is the author of “Gods, Demons. and Others”, and the popular Valarie Tuttle was a graduate who wrote “The Key To My Heart”, Joyce Murray, Sixpence In My Shoe”, Delores Pullins, “My (juicy) Autobiography” Kathleen Smith, “Blandly”, and Carmine D’Alessandro who wrote “Return Of The Natives”.

It has been recently brought to the attention of the Office that many students have been dying for apparently no good reason during class. Furthermore, the same students arc refusing to fall over after they arc dead. This in some cases, has led to tardiness for the following class. This Practice Must Stop At Once. On and after January 1.1965. any student found sitting up after he has dies! will Ik- dropped from the school at once without further argument. Where it can be proven that the student is being held up by a desk, typewriter, or any other support owned by the school a ninety day period of pushups will be granted. The following procedure will be strictly adhered to: If. after several hours, it is noticed that any student has not moved or changed position, the teacher will investigate. Because of the highly sensitive nature of our students, and the close resemblance between death anti their natural working attitude, the investigation should l c matlc quietly so as to prevent waking the student if he is asleep, which is permitted under the present school regulations. If some doubt exists as to the true condition, a sick pass may be used as a final test. If the student does not reach for it, it may be reasonably assumed that death has occurred. TEACHERS’ BRIDGES STEW For the first time disclosed to the student sound stomachs we now dare to toll the true story behind the closed doors of the little eating room to the side of the cafeteria. We now give you a complete recipe. You start with the sweetness of Betty Georges, Sandra White, Marie Reid, and Romero Jackson. For a spicy tang mix in the pepper of Lurcen Sheffield and Ronnie Bernard; if this isn’t spicy enough add Julia Beaclmm, Betty Diaz and Hortcnsc Carroll and I am sure it will lx “hot” enough. If the mixture becomes too thick, lower the heat and add the oil of John Criesi to give it that “light” touch. You now put in your salt which is taken straight from Ray Topoleski and Robert Fluker. To get a sweet sugary flavor add Louise Conzo, Pat Montalbano and Kathleen Bronsky. Mix in Shiela Austin, Sarah Brown and Frank Adams and you have quite a dish. Stir with your forefinger four times to get that Gricy flavor. Cover and let simmer for fifteen minutes adding a pinch of nutmeg taken from Doris Trent and cinnamon directly from S. Simmons. The master cook Naomi Moore says: “Don’t let your fine stew overcook with too many varied ingredients”. Sniff, sniff-IIey you nuts! You forget to take it off the heat! Remember: Remove from heat—or else! Serve your stew with Ficula sauce over Ferrmna bread and don’t forget to serve our famous Pacheco Punch made with Marcella White lemons and Maciopa wine. As a dessert you may serve Rhcubottom upside down cake along with Higgin-Botham icing. I am sure this stew will bring pains of joy from teachers who eat in the Cafeteria. GALA FASHION SHOW Tin- Mallard Foundation for th - Bettor Dre crs of Newark Association sponsored its annual Fashion Show last night at Bratton’s Lounge, leading fashionables competed for the title.

D.C. Since the finances of the Band arc not very substantial, they have been selling peanut brittle in hopes of earning enough for the trip plus fringe benefits. They are anxiously waiting to Ixxard those supersonic tricycles for a fun filled week at the capital. If all goes well, the band with their bright and shiny instruments, will be in Washington at 12 noon after a 93-day ride. However the drum section will have to be sent separately due to the Woodruff twins who must practice and not let those precious fingers get tangled. These musically, talented people will successfully play the all around favorites: 1. Oh Where Are You Melvin 2. The Finger Snappin Polka (in D minor) The many thanks for everyone who bought the gooey peanut brittle. In morning light and evening fall We will never forget our days at West Side Through all the days of coming years The memories of good times will be remembered In times when glowing futures call We’ll draw upon these memories for strength In hearts with laughter and with tears We store the many experiences and enjoyments of four years Our love for you will never die. Oh Alma Mater West Side High How could it—you have become a part of us Our love for you will never die. Oh Alma Mater Wrcst Side High In later years we will reminisce over our unforgettable school days.
