Scott Editorial Adviser WEATHER VANE WESTFIELD SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL WESTFIELD, NEW JERSEY November 20, 1950 marked the beginning of a new era in the development of Westfield Senior High School, for this was the day on which the cornerstone to the multimillion dollar building was laid. Staffed by forty-two teachers, the school opened its doors to 725 students on February 4, 1952, The new building with enlarged facilities enabled the expansion of the curriculum and the extra- curricular activities. The course of instruction of the Business and General Edu- cation departments was broadened, and the College Preparatory Program was enriched with many honors courses. At the same time, a more extensive athletic program and a more varied club program evolved. The new addition, completed in September 1960, enlarged the laboratory, classroom, and gymnasium facili- ties to meet the growing demands of the student body. WHS can look back with pride on her many years of outstanding achievement and can continue with confidence her role of producing thoroughly prepared students for business, college, and better living. Her reputation, however, comes not from the building itself, but rather from the students, teachers, and ad- ministrators who shape her personality. 2 3 FOREWORD For the past three years, Westfield High School has been the center of our lives. Each school day has been a unique experience in itself and has presented all the opportunities and challenges of living. We have been exposed to the great philosophers, historians, mathema- ticians, and artists; and we have been stimulated in each field by men and women dedicated to giving us a better understanding of our world. In extra-curricular activities — athletics, clubs, fine arts — we have found true fellowship; the friendships we have made will endure throughout our lives. With these memories we must face the future that now dawns before us. CONTENTS Look to this day! For it is life...................................................................... 10 The very life of life ................................................................ 58 In its brief course lie all the Verities and realities of your existence ............................................. 68 The bliss of growth .................................................................. 88 The glory of action ................................................................. 110 The splendor of achievement ......................................................... 132 For yesterday is but a dream And tomorrow is only a vision ....................................................... 144 Look to this day I For it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course lie all the Verities and realities of your existence — The bliss of growth, The glory of action, The splendor of achievement; For yesterday is but a dream And tomorrow is only a vision; But today well-lived Makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, And every tomorrow a vision of hope. — Sanskrit i DEDICATION ON 1947 Walter L. Clarkson inobtrusively entered Westfield Senior High as a student. The school soon felt his presence, however, because he distinguished himself both as a scholar and as an athlete. Mr. Clarkson was good natured and possessed a personality, not to be forgotten by his classmates; a personality that would be a great asset in his future teaching career. After receiving the Richard Van den Bergh Memorial Award at graduation, he ma- triculated at Dartmouth and then furthered his education by earning his M,A. at the Teachers College of Columbia. In 1959 Mr. Clarkson returned to WHS to serve in a different capacity. He was no longer a student, but rather a teacher. Despite his role, he is still learning, for Mr. Clarkson, a dedicated teacher, is always striving to present the material to his classes in the most interesting and modern manner. He is also a person who learns from his contacts with others. From participating in and observing life, Mr. Clarkson has learned the art of stimulating students to work, of helping others succeed, and of bringing out one's best. To substantiate this, one only has to look at the quality of the Hi's Eye which he sponsors and the unlimited successes of the cross country, swim- ming, and track teams which he coaches. We, the Class of 1963, inspired by his dedication, personality, and zest for life, present this, our yearbook, to .. . Walter L Clarkson Look to this day! For it is life . . . The personality of Westfield High School is molded by the school life, in particular, by the outside activities and by the academics. The extra-curricular activities afford us the oppor- tunity to satisfy our curiosity through research; to utilize our talents and creativity through fiterary, dramatic, and musical endeavors; to fulfill our desire to help others through service; and to acquire our practicality through the domestic arts. The academic subjects allow one to discover the past accomplish- ments, the philosophy, and the future actions of mon. Shap- ing our minds and, in turn, the personality of the school, these two areas, the building blocks of our future, help us to real- ize that this is life, the very life of life.

Mr. Harold Shill and Mr. Samuel Loughridge acted as co-sponsors. At the meetings the representatives discussed and acted upon their own ideas and those suggested by the student body. The council sponsored our AFS stu- dent, the Kick-Off Dance, and the crowning of the Snow Queen at the Mid-Win- ter Ball, which climaxed exam week. This year to augment the treasury, they showed the film, The Mouse that Roared ' Council members and members of the Future Teachers of America Club also volunteered to greet and assist visitors and new students at our new information desk. The council has continued tra- dition and added innovations to become an effective link between the students and the administration. Let me make a judgment on that.

Scholarship, leadership, service and character are the qualifications for mem- bership in the National Honor Society. Having been selected by the faculty, those students who are outstanding in these categories are inducted into the society during the spring of their senior or junior year. Raising money by various projects, the members sponsor a scholarship that is given to a graduating senior and awards for those seniors who raise their class standing the most. The mem- bers also volunteer their time in tutoring students. This year the society was under the leadership of President, William Lough; Vice- President, Charles Collucci; Secretary, Carol Ann Mulreany,- Treasurer, William Haney,- and advisers. Miss Elisabeth Gromlich and Dr. Evelyn Wilson. Oh, Caesar was a Roman?

Leading the cheering section at the football and basketball games, the cheerleaders play a vital part in moulding our school spirit. Regardless of weather or playing conditions, the cheerleaders, captained by Bambi Eddy, are always a wel- come sight. Accompanying the cheerleaders during the football season are the twirlers, who are led by majorette Sue Cox. They can be seen strutting in front of the band at the games, and they entertain the crowds with their twirling skills during the half- time. Both groups add a feminine touch to the masculine athletic program. FRONT; B. Zimmerman. ROW 1; Mrs. Hyland, S. Bishop, B. Eddy, J. Blank, S. Schaub, ROW 2: L. Jewett, D. Taliaferro, M. Hinebauch, J.

Senior Literary Club The members of the Junior Literary Club supplement their English III course by reading, analyzing, and discussing modern literature. The activities of this dub, including a theater trip in the spring, are planned by the president, Randy Blair and the c!ub adviser, Miss Yurcision, While investigating the fas- cinating world of literature, they develop a back- ground for college and later life. To enrich their studies in English IV, the members of the Senior Literary Club read and analyze different examples of world literature. At eoch of the monthly meetings a number of Spanish, Russian, Irish, or In- dian works are discussed. During the year, club adviser Miss Learish and the president Judy Prince led the dub in discussion groups, directed the reading and acting of plays, and planned theater trips. Junior Literary Club 16 Sophomore Literary Club The Sophomore Literary Club's informal dis- cussions of such books as Brave New World and Catcher in the Rye encourage and stimu- late the members to read. Rotating chairmen lead the periods of analysis with the assist- ance of the adviser, Miss Elissa Imbriaco. The club's objective, supplementing the Sopho- more curriculum, is reached by studying the works of authors who are not normally en- countered during the year. Writers’ Club The Writers' Club offers interested students the opportunity to improve their creative writing. At the evening meetings held in the homes of the members, the contributions of the pupils are discussed and the use of new writing techniques are evaluated. The dub members publish the Weathervane, the liter- ary magazine of WHS, os their major project and end the year with a theater trip to New York. Oral Interpretation of Literature Club The Oral Interpretation of Literature Club was a new addition to WHS activities this year. Although the club's primary objective was to teach the student to interpret litera- ture dramatically, its members with the as- sistance of the adviser, Miss Evelyn Yurcisin, developed a keen appreciation for good writing. Featured in the club's program were various trips to hear dramatic readings by outstanding actors and actresses and the sponsoring of a school representative to the Newark Poetry Contest in March. Through- out the year, this club has provided its mem- bers with the opportunity to learn to express themselves by reading aloud. As one of the largest and most active organizations in WHS, the Mask and Mime Club provides students with the opportunity to develop their talents and interests in dramatics Through experience and study, the members learn the integral parts of the performing arts-, acting, pantomime, directing, costuming, make-up, lighting, set design, and the technical and financial phases of theatrical production. Under the leadership of this year's president, Richard Hollstein, and the adviser, Miss Brinser, the club staged Goldsmith's play, She Stoops to Conquer, as their annual fall production. The proceeds from the play went to finance the club's philanthropic endeav- ors. The club members also furnished the dramatic ability for the Christmas Tableau, participated in the One Act Play Tournament in Plainfield, and ended the year with a June picnic. Mask £ Mime Club Art Club The Art Club, under the guidance of its adviser, Mrs. Clara Grandcolas, is organized to help its members develop a greater appreciation of art, gain a further insight into the various art fields, and understand the viewpoints of other artists. The club's program, planned by the students and their president, Berta Poland, included speakers for each meeting, painting demonstrations, and a trip to a place of artistic interest. 18 Forum Club Conducting informal seminar meetings, the members or the Forum Club develop an awareness of and interest in the problems and issues facing contemporary society. At the same time they realize the necessity of open-mindedness, tolerance, and compromise in our relations with others. During club periods this year, the members heard a business executive from India, inter viewed the foreign exchange students, and talked to others in the field of international relations. The club, under the leadership of president Tom Phelan, was advised by Mr. Anthony Lazarro. Debate Club The students in the Debate Club, under the direction of Mr. David Brown, develop the skills of formal argument. Sophomores were encouraged to become members in the hope that they would carry on the spirit of this new club in future years. The members devote several hours each week to prepare their arguments, which are presented both at intraclub debates and at contests with other schools. Chess Club The Chess Club, under the supervision of Mr. Milton Barnes, provides an opportunity for interested students to play this thought-pro- voking game, both for pleasure and improve- ment. Furthermore, there is a chance for the better players to broaden their experience through tournament play. The group, led by president Mitchell Hermann, has actively par- ticipated in the Union County Chess League, sponsored a team to the New Jersey High School Team Tournament, and encouraged individual members to take part in various state tournaments. Divided on the basis of proficiency, the members of the Advanced and Beginners Bridge Clubs are offered an excellent opportunity to improve their bridge game. Under the guidance of Mrs. Gene- vieve Hill and Miss Paula Straw, the beginners practice funda- mentals while the Advanced Bridge Club gives experienced players the opportunity to exercise their skill. The club members share their mutual interest in bridge during regular dub periods and also in scheduled tournaments with neighboring schools. Bridge Clubs 20 Stamp Club The opportunity to build a better stamp collection is available to the students in Mr. Robert Duncan's Stamp Club, By improving each other's collections through trading, the members develop a useful hobby for their later lives. In addition, friendships are made through a mutual interest in this pastime. Jazz Club The members of the Jazz Club, under the direction of Mr. Charles Rivera, develop an understanding of jazz, the American idiom. The varied meetings include listening to recordings, discussing contributions made by artists in this field, and attending concerts. As a future goal, the group would like to assemble a representative collection of Ameri- can jazz records for the WHS library. 21 Sewing Club Members of the Advanced Sewing Club have mastered the basic sewing skills. Under the direction of Mrs. Louise Kosak, the girls work on difficult pat- terns and intricate designs. Their projects are practical as well as attractive. Beginners Knitting Club Click, click, click go the nee- dles of the nineteen members of the Beginners' Knitting Club. To help the new knitter over the hurdles of knit one, purl two is the aim of this club. Mrs. Florence Swink, the adviser, as- sists the girls with their prob- lems as they knit mittens and scarfs, the projects for the year. Advanced Knitting Club Once a girl has learned the basic skills of knitting, she is ready for the Advanced Knit- ting Club. The girls help each other with their projects — sweaters of all colors and sizes — and in the case of a dropped stitch two rows back or a con- fusing pattern, Miss Marjorie Rugen, the club's adviser, is ready to help. 22 1 Auto Club for Girls Contrary to common belief, a girl's best friend is sometimes her lug wrench. With this vital piece of equipment, the mem- bers of the Auto Club for Girls learn to change tires in addi- tion to making other minor re- pairs and adjustments. During the club periods, they work on automotive parts such as the fuel pump and carburetor. Lec- tures and demonstrations are supplemented by the showing of films and by Mr. Robert Dello-Russo's instruction. Ceramics Club With a selection of nearly four hundred projects, the Ceramics Club offers an opportunity for creative and artistic work. Ad- viser Mr. John Thompson and president Sharyn Williams help the members develop skills necessary to this art. The club's members obtain pleasure and satisfaction through the expres- sion of their talents. Bakers’ Club The members of the Bakers' Club strive to gain a greater understanding of the principles involved in the preparation and serving of popular dishes. Un- der the tutelage of the advis- er, Mrs. Joan Testa, the club members create and sample their own culinary masterpieces during the club periods. 23 Aeronautics Club The Aeronautics Club was organized in 1954, and has steadily increased its member- ship, The main objective of the club is to interest high school students in aviation. Its mem- bers learn, aided by movies, discussions, and actual experi- ence flying model airplanes, the fundamentals of aviation. Under the direction of Mr. Mil- ton Luxemburg, the dub mem- bers have heard lectures given by pilots, flight engineers, and people from the field of aero- dynamics. Radio Club The members of the WHS Radio Club under the leader- ship of the adviser, Mr. William Gager, have established an amateur radio station in the electronics laboratory. The hams operate the radio before and after school or during study periods. As dub projects, the group purchased a new aerial which stretches above the courtyard and offered lessons in Morse code and radio theory to students planning to obtain their novice licenses. Bowling Club Once every week some fifty students are seen making their way toward Clark Lanes to en- gage in one of our nation's fastest growing participator sports, bowling. Under the di- rection of Mr. Robert Dello- Russo, Mr, William Gager, and president Mike Pattyson, the Bowling Club provides inter- ested boys with the opportunity to enjoy themselves and engage in friendly competition. With this idea in mind, the club strives to promote good sports- manship. It participates in the Annual Union County Bowling Tournament in April and con- cludes the year's activities with a Father-Son Awards Banquet. 24 Physicians Club Today the roie of the physician is becoming more and more important. In view of this increasing interest in medicine, the Physician's Club was intro-_ duced at WHS this year. With the aid of their adviser, Mr. Robert Sanislow, the members discuss the problems of today's physician to gain o better under- standing of his role in society. The main projects for this year were a trip to Overlook Hospital and a tour of the medical facilities ot Rutgers Univer- sity, In 1956, the girls who were interested in the many facets of the nursing pro- fession organized, with the assistance of Mrs. Valeria Barber, the Future Nurses of America Club. This year, while acting as volunteers in neighbor- ing hospitals and while listening to lectures given by prominent specialists of the medical profession, the members, led by president Mary Jo Wade, hove investigated the varied aspects of nursing. This preview of future ca- reers gives each member a firm foundation for her vocational goals. F.N.A. Calculator Club Although the Calculator Club is small, its activities have proved interesting and useful. Advised by Miss Judith Clark, the club mem- bers have learned to understand the me- chanics and operations of a calculator. A representative from the Underwood Corpora- tion demonstrated the capabilities of the machine, and since then the club has utilized the information they acquired in solving in- tricate mathematical problems. Slide Rule Club A working knowledge of the operation and practical application of the slide rule is es- sential to the mathematics and science student. During the first semester, the members of the Slide Rule Club met early every Thursday morning with the adviser. Miss Dama Hill, and the president, John Read. They worked to gain speed and accuracy with their cal- culations on this instrument. 1 26 Microbiology Club At their monthly meetings, the members of the Microbiology Club evaluate and discuss the scientific advancements in the field of biology. Each student conducts individual research projects with the aid of the advisers, Mr. Clarence Jones and Mr. Joseph Kursar. They study bacterial cultures and mu- tation in the planaria. In addi- tion, the club creates interest in this field by publicizing careers in scientific research. Advanced Biology Club The Advanced Biology Club was organized to give the in- terested student the opportunity to observe and discuss the specialized fields of biology. At the first club meeting, the mem- bers, under the supervision of the adviser, Mr. John Elder, divided into committees. Each group was responsible for re- porting the results of an experi- ment completed during the year. The reports included dis- cussions on such topics as the intelligence of hamsters, Freu- dian psychology, and a newly developed method of ac- celerating plant growth. Earth Science Club To broaden the student's knowledge of physical sciences such as astronomy, meteorology, oceanography, and geology is the primary oim of the Earth Science Club. Adviser, Mr. Nor- man Koury directs the studies of the earth and its relationship to the universe. The year's activi- ties were highlighted by trips to the Franklin Mine at Frank- lin, New Jersey, and to the Museum of Natural History in New York City. 27 Representatives from each homeroom in WHS form our Service Club. Under the auspices of Mrs. Frances Sutherland and Mrs. Lorna MacDougal the Red Cross Council serves the community in a variety of ways: collecting money during the fall membership drive and for the Children's Specialized Hospital, packing clothes for Coney Creek, Kentucky; filling overseas gift boxes; sending educational material about Westfield to each of our AFS students and to a high school in Turkey. At meetings they discuss various phases of Red Cross work and listen to lectures by community servants. Through their activities, club members become aware of a Red Cross motto: Wherever there is need —we care; we shore; we learn how to serve others together, Service Club Library Council The Library Council gives the student a chance both to serve the school and to benefit himself. The library is a viral and busy part of our school life, and for smooth functioning it depends on student help. The Council members tend the desk, process new books, shelve books, take care of the magazine and pamphlet files, and arrange displays. But it is not all work for council members. They are a member of the New Jersey School Library Council Association, take part in its activities, and attend its two annual con- ferences. Under the leadership of Council president Joan Hebert and advisers Mrs. Adelaide Knubel and Miss Alice Lockwood, the members exchanged meetings with neigh- boring councils, took a trip to a point of library interest, and published the semi-annual book reviews. 28 Most of the academic departments of WHS owe a vote of thanks to the members of the Projectionists Club. These boys, under the direction of Mr. William Gager, sacrifice their study periods to run the movie projectors in history and science classes, as well os in assemblies. Through their work the students learn not only the basic operation of this equipment, but also the mechanical systems which moke them work. Projectionists Club The Technicians Club, directed by Mr. William Gager, provides the stage and lighting work for our school assemblies, plays, and concerts. Besides acquiring the ability to operate the lighting panel and other stage accessories, the members of the club learn the art of stage lighting. Their knowledge is then applied to actual student productions. The club is the originator of the Lighting and Sound Show. Technicians Club 29 Leaders Club Every Tuesday morning at 7;50, the Leaders' Club members could be seen making their way to the gym for their weekly meeting. Chosen on the basis of their leadership ability and past record in the physical edu- cation department, these girls head- ed their gym classes as C.O.'s, and as squad, time, shower, and equip- ment leaders. At their meetings they discussed problems they encountered and were given new instructions on marching for the spring P.E, pro- gram and techniques to teach the girls. The leaders, as the link be- tween students and teachers, were the right arm of the department. Girls’ Bowling Club Dorothy Dleyar and April Willner had fun and relaxation in mind when they founded the Girls' Bowl- ing Club this year. In friendly com- petition the members learn to develop bowling skills and practice good sportsmanship. In addition to their Friday afternoon trips to Clark Lanes with their advisers, Miss Carol Ann Charrier and Miss Bren- da Flahault, the girls gave a Christmas party and a Spring ban- quet. The highlight of the year was the NJ.A.A.G. Bowling Mail-O- Gram Tournament. Girls’ Sports Council Composed of representatives from all classes in the high school, the GSC helps the physical education department to co-ordinate the in- school and extra-curricular activities of the large feminine student body. This year the council sponsored the fall sale of football pins and also added the sale of basketball pins to their schedule. In a program on back-to-school night, GSC showed the parents the varied activities in which their girls participate. Round- ing out a full year were the Coun- try Dance and the GSC dessert, at which they recognized the girls who in 1962-63 had made outstanding contributions to the physical educa- tion department. 30 F.T.A. The primary objective of the Future Teachers of America Club is to acquaint the students of WHS with teaching as a career. Chartered in 1956, the J. Isabella Dodds Chapter of the Future Teachers of America enables students interested in teaching to secure pro- fessional information and firsthand contacts with those in this field. Serving the school, FTA members act as Back-To-School-Night guides, teacher helpers, and front door guides. During the club periods, members, under the supervision of the advisers, Mrs. Janet Brittain, Mr. Robert Adriance, and Miss Bettye Mae Shepter, heard speakers, saw films, and discussed pedagogical problems. In the fall, they visited Mont- clair State College, and in the spring they visited classes in other Westfield schools. The Future Business Leaders of America Club is a branch of a national youth organiza- tion which is sponsored by the United Business Education Association. Under the super- vision of the advisers, Mrs. Alberta Viola and Mrs. Barbara Echtermann, the club supple- ments classroom instruction by giving the members more diversified opportunities. Fac- ulty members and people in the business world periodically address the members and give them advice on proper business behavior and attitudes; the members themselves travel to business colleges, large corporations, and other points of interest, The high- light of the year comes when the members visit different businesses in the Westfield area to gain first hand experience for their future careers.

SENIOR PICNIC OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! On October 10, 1962, the Senior Class gathered at Tamaques Park for the traditional Senior Picnic. Although the theme of outer space was carried out under the direction of chairman. Barb Plenty, there were many down-to-earth activities including baseball and the sack races which combined athletic talent and class spirit. For the gourmets of home town cooking, there was a pie eating contest. The tug-of-war, won by the first floor homerooms, provided the finale. The picnic strengthened the bond of unity in the Senior Class while the combination of traditional events and a modern theme emphasized the senior year and activities as bridges to the future.

Terry Eakin, born in Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua, lived for fourteen years in Colombia and is now a resident of Westfield, She has been in Jamaica, Panama, Costa Rica, Honduras, Cuba (where she met Fidel Castro), and Puerto Rico. Terry is a member of the Future Nurses Club in WHS. Elena Saraceno, our visitor for three months, was born in Italy and later moved to Argentina. She explains how Argentina has separated schools for boys and girls. The students remain in the same class for their eleven mandatory subjects and the different teachers come to them. Margaret Amtmann, an International Christian Youth Exchange student from Austria, is staying with the Allens. She was born in Hungary and left when the Russians began to come in. She has participated in girls' basketball, field hockey, and modern dance. She has visited Yugoslavia, Italy, Germany, and Belgium and wants to learn languages. Dorothy Zbinden, an AFS student from Switzerland, is staying with the Vanderbilts. In Europe Dorothy has visited Germany, Austria, and France; here in the U,S. she has met New Jersey's Govenor Hughes. Dorothy is active in the Junior Auxiliary to the Children's Specialized Hospital and in the German Club of WHS. Elke Thoss is an exchange student from Germany who has visited Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, England, and Italy, Here in West- field she is visiting with the Heubners; at school she participates in the French Club, in the decoration plans for the Carnival and the Prom, and in the Junior Auxiliary to the Children's Specialized Hospital. Bill Boladeres left Cuba to come to the U.S. when he was fifteen. At WHS he has participated in the track team, the Earth Science Club, and the Slide Rule Club. Bill is now planning to study architecture in college. 44 A.F.S. Tom Phelan. '63, poses for a clan picture with his Turkish AFS family, the Berks. Tom Phelan, living this summer with the Berk family in Maltepe, a resort area of Istanbul, Turkey, was impressed by the warmth and friendliness of the Turks. Interested in the beau- ty and contrasts of the land, Tom also enjoyed Turkey because it is the cultural meeting point of the East and the West and the religious meeting point of Christians and Moslems. During his sight-seeing tours he was fortunate to see St. Sophia, which was at one time the center of the Christian Church; some of the most beauti- ful gold mosaics ever made; Topkapi Saray, the home of the Sultans,- the sarcophagus of Alex- ander the Great; and many fascinating and beautiful mosques. The American Field Service was founded in 1915 as a volunteer ambulance corps. Seeing the terror and waste of war, the members, men of many nationalities and beliefs, realized that to have a lasting peace, a mutual understanding among na- tions must be developed. To achieve this goal, the corps established a student exchange program. The AFS-er lives with a family and is treated like a son or daughter. Becoming acquainted with the family life, the student also learns the language, culture and customs of his host country. At the same time, he explains life in his native land. Thus, the AFS-er con- tributes to the building of a bridge, one of mutual understanding between countries. Vaya Con Dios AFS student, Sheila Klaiber, '64, waves good-bye to her WHS friends as the leaves for Cordoba, Argentina. Linda Mathis Talks about her AFS experiences in Norway. Impressed by the magnificance of the Norwe- gian scenery, Linda Mathis considers Oslo the most beautiful city in the world. Living as an AFS daughter with the Kjolstad family, Linda at- tended the Oslo Katedrolskole with her sister Tove. Learning the language rapidly, she was able to participate in all her classes which were taught in Norsk. Linda enjoyed the Norwegian national pastimes, skiing and hiking, and through this outdoor exercise she developed a ruddy Scandanavian complexion. The highlight of her sojourn was attending the colorful open- ing of Parliament and standing near gracious King Olaf. ’ROUND SCHOOL ' library on the move ’' Jack Irwin assumes a pensive pose in a bustling library.

MNOPQ STUVVt XYZ ENGLISH V, LANGUAGE LAB, FILMS, mmt Miss Dietrich's English V doss probes for the deep personal values of life through literature and self expression. Mohammed said, Acquire knowledge. It enables its possessor to distinguish right from wrong,- it lighteth the way to heaven; it is our friend in the desert, our society in solitude, our companion when friendless; it guideth us to happiness,- it sustaineth us in misery; it is an ornament amongst friends, and an armor against enemies. The study of English is perhaps the first and most important step along our road to knowledge, for without the ability to read, to write, and to understand our native language, the other fields of study are meaningless. In Westfield High School students are given a varied background in the study of English. The courses con- centrate on the study of literature and composition. Students who do exceptionally well are placed in advanced or honors classes. The high point of this department, English V, provides a selected group of seniors with the opportunity to analyze literature on a college level. Under Mr Brown's instruction students develop better com- prehension and more efficient reading habits. Poise and self-confidence are two important traits developed in speech doss as demonstrated by Donnie Cox. Journalism students learn the responsibilities in- volved in creative writing and newspaper pub- lication. 60 ilJJi AUGMENT HUMANITIES COURSES Beware the Ides of March! cautions Mrs, Wirtquisf. EJ Portal, a Christmas tradition, is reenacted by Spanish students. The language department at Westfield Senior High offers an extensive program of four-year courses in French, Spanish, German, and Latin, If not only opens to its students a new form of verbal communication, but also educates them cultur- ally and historically. Celebrations of native festivals and holi- days, movies, slides, and tapes all help to enrich the classroom activities. The newest addition to this department is a lan- guage laboratory with fourteen individual compartments in which each student may become more adept in speaking and understanding the language he is studying. Taking a breok from the analysis of con- temporary German literature, Mrs, Disbrow reviews basic German grammar 61 Engrossed students record their progress in the language lab. BSSC, SMSG, H2, CALCULUS, LABS, Physiography students, under the direction of Mr. Koury, ex- plore the natural phenomena of the earth's surface and atmos- phere. The lob provides an opportunity for the practical applica- tion of the laws of physics. In the past few years, the Science department at WHS has ex- panded its program, Not only are basic courses in physics, chem- istry, biology, and physiography offered, but special courses sponsored by the Biological Science Study Committee and the Physical Science Study Committee experiment with an entirely new, analytical approach to these subjects. In addition, supple- mentary courses in biology and chemistry prepare the superior science student for advanced college placement. After school labs, which augment the chemistry and physics courses, have become a vital part of the department. These provide students with more opportunities for performing actual experiments and allow teach- ers to devote more time to explaining theory. As a special feature, the department again sponsored the Saturday Science program in the physical and biological sciences, in which local scientists shared some of their knowledge with interested students. Careful dissection of the vertebrates in Biology II affords visual study of evolutionary developments. On various Saturdays, sludents attend schedufed programs of physical and biological sciences pre- sented by selected local speakers, 2X SATURDAY SCIENCE ENRICH SCHOLARSHIP Logarithms, word problems, and graphs form the basis for algebraic equations. Mathematics, the study of numbers, plays a major role in a progressive, science-minded world, ft is vital to each man's life whether he is an unskilled laborer collecting his salary, a college professor teaching calculus, or a nuclear physicist studying atomic particles. The Mathematics Department of Westfield Senior High offers a varied and extensive curriculum. This includes courses in algebra, trigonometry, plane ge- ometry, bookkeeping, math review, and business arithmetic. New, experimental courses called H- (honors honors'1 and S.M.S.G. make available con- centrated, accelerated programs for students with an active interest and notable ability in mathematics. The zenith of the program is calculus, a course which is designed for the future math majors who desire to attain advanced placement in college- Through the studies of these subjects we gain an ap- preciation of the intricacies of mathematics in the world around us and its practical application in daily life. The aim of the plane geomerry class is to encourage logical reasoning Through working with theorems, postulates, and axioms. Calculus, an intensive study in higher mathematics, is the newest addition to the moth department. Training for money management comes with practice in the bookkeeping class. DEVELOPMENT OF VOCATIONAL Not only fundamentals, but good business form and courtesy are taught in typing. Many o busy pencil inscribes Dear Sir in the mysterious language of stenography. 'When do we eat? query the members of a boys' cooking class. Imagination and skill are requirements for the fabrication of wearable products by sewing students. Color, form, and style are combined with talent for artful creations in ex pression of one's true views and sentiments. 64 SKILLS THROUGH EXPERIENCE Templates, compasses, and T-squares are used on the drafting boards in the making of blueprints, perspectives, and machine drawings. In the shop the boys are left to their imaginations and power tools to show the abilities they have with their hands. Mike Minnicino tinkers with his prize-winning car in the Automotive Mechanics shop. 65 No course requires os much patience, ond yet so much awareness, as the in-car Safe Driving classes. WE STUDY THt PAS I IO The Cuban crisis and the OAS are among the issues studied in the Latin American History class. Social Studies We have learned that we cannot live alone, In peace; that our own well-being is dependent on the well-being of other nations far away. F. D. Roosevelt History is the bridge between the mistakes and successes of past generations, the events of today, and the unknown future. This year the Social Studies Department at WHS has expanded its program to include not only United States History, Modern World History, Latin American History, and World Geography, but also International Relations. As the world around us becomes more complex, we must increase our knowledge to better prepare our- selves to meet the future. The quest for truth in our classrooms provides each of us with a more thorough understanding of the world in which we live. Students acting as representatives of different countries uphold their coun- tries' positions in the world. PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE College night provides opportunities for questioning olumni of various educational institutions. Mr. Washville helps Vicki Casamo formulate her plans for the future. Seniors investigate the opportunities for serving their country in the armed forces. Dress-up Day allows Business Education students to practice their future roles in offices, 67 During the school year the Guidance Department aids with problems and provides invaluable programs to help students prepare themselves for the future. The staff members schedule career conferences, personal inter- views, and college visitors designed to illuminate voca- tional and educational opportunities. The career con- ferences enable students to investigate many fields, from horticulture to nuclear physics, through discussions with professional representatives who visit the school- To be- come accustomed to proper business procedures and at- tire, future secretaries participate in dress up day every Wednesday. By utilizing all the facilities and opportuni- ties available at WHS, each student con graduate with a firm foundation for future goals. In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existence . Our capable teachers are responsible for inculcating upon our minds the desire for knowledge. It is they who weave into our lives the significance of books and the meaning of words. From the sciences, mathematics, and histories we learn the verities of our existence. We are made aware of the realities and philosophies of our lives through the study of languages, literature, and the arts. As we mature during our years in high school, we begin to question, formulate our opinions, and with the guidance of our teachers and our administrators we follow the paths of opportunity which mold our lives and characters.

The bliss of growth . . . o When students enter Westfield High School, their activities, their studies, in fact, their whole lives change. As underclass- men, they meet new friends, explore more varied areas, and face more difficult problems, They have the opportunity to donate their talents to worthwhile organizations, to provide the intelligence for the classrooms, and to contribute their prowess to the sports teams. As they mature, they become better acquainted with the realities of life, and more pre- pared to face the future. When, as vital participants in the life of the school, they make an interesting discovery or ex- plore a new truth, they attain a supreme happiness, the bliss of growth. JUNIORS-.FORMULATING THE FUTURE ♦ ♦ ♦ Junior Class Officers — Barbara Cleaves, Secretary; Mark Brumbaugh, Assistant Treasurer; Robert Kass, President; Ran- dolph Blair, Vice President; Mrs. K. Stephens, Adviser; Richard Smith, Treasurer, During last year, the class of '64 had to adjust to a new situation and new demands. This year; however, as an integral part of WHS, the members of the class have played an important role in shaping the school's person- ality. They have energetically engaged in the extra-cur- ricular program and have filled many important offices. The class of '64 prepared for their junior year fast spring when they elected Robert Kass, Randy Blair, Bar- bara Cleaves, Richard Smith, and Mark Brumbaugh to serve as president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, and assistant treasurer respectively. Aided by the junior council, these officers have been the nucleus of the class activities. The Junior Promenade, given to honor the Sen- ior Class, was the major project of the year. Having se- lected the theme, Arabian Nights, in the fall, the mem- bers of the class spent many hours to capture and create the magnificent splendor of medieval Middle East. When prom night arrived on May 3, this gala affair was added to the lengthening list of successful Junior Proms. The final action of the members of the class was to elect officers to serve during 1964, their last but most significant year at WHS.

SOPHOMORES: ADJUSTING THEIR AIMS Sophomore Class Officers: Borbaro Bell, Assistant Treasurer,- Shirley Jones, Vice President; Miss M, Learish, Adviser,- Dovid King, Treasurer; Frederick Callahan, President; Jon Etherington, Secretary. Having been previously separated only by the railroad tracks, last year's graduating classes of Edison and Roosevelt Junior High Schools met this year to form the Class of '65. No longer the leaders of their schools, the members of the sophomore class have become a part of that necessary following and have adjusted their aims so that they are now anticipating their remaining years of WHS. After a class constitution was written, elections were held and Rick Callahan, Shirley Jones, Jan Etherington, David King, and Barbara Bell were elected officers. These students, assisted by the Sophomore Council and by the class adviser, Miss Mary Learish, led the year's activities, which included presenting a talent show parodying popular television programs. The Sophomores were the first class to participate in an orientation program which was designed by the guidance office to supplement regular classroom instruction with recommendations on study habits, college selec- tion, and future careers Electing next year's officers was the last class project of the year. Having successfully met the challenge of change, the Class of '65 united this year to become an integral part of WHS.

The glory of action a . In our athletic program students are afforded the opportunity to achieve a satisfaction not offered by scholastic activities. Athletics help us to develop mental aptness and physical prowess, uncover potential leaders, and enjoy the comrade- ship of a unique team spirit. Before entering competition, each member of our teams must sacrifice many hours to learn the rules, strategy, and techniques of his particular sport. The glory of action is not limited to the participants on the field, for it arouses the emotions of the spectators, which results in a unified school spirit.

Rated as slightly better than average in pre-season ratings, the team and the coaching staff worked until Westfield was regarded as the best in Central Jersey and one of the best in the state. Pride and leadership were provided by Head Coach Gary Kehler, Assistant Coaches Norm Koury, Joe DePasquale, Harvey Gerber, and Trainer John D'Andrea. The boys responded with the team effort and hard-nosed football that won ball games. There were no individual super stars, but excellent performers were abundant. Marty Howarth, a fleet, shifty, pass catcher, and Dave Morash, the rugged anchor of the line were co-captains. Both were 1st team Union County choices with Howarth a 3rd team All-State choice also. The interior of Westfield's fast, mo- bile, hard-hitting line was built around Earl Vigne, Kip Kindregan, Buzz Hedden, and Larry Warter. Kindregan was a 2nd team Union County choice and Vigne and Hedden received Honorable Mention. Bob Nelson, a valuable transfer student, was a solid player on the strong side end and received Honorable Mention in Union County. Bud Mueller, Westfield's noted field general, provided the spark behind the explosive offenses completing 8 touchdown passes. Rick Thiele, the five county scoring champion, was the power runner in the bockfield, besides having break-away speed. A talented quartet of fast, agile, hard-running juniors, Jay Isbrecht, Harry Beane, Jim O'Neil and Leroy Gallman rounded out the backfield, while sophomore Rudy Brown did a remarkable job as substitute. Thiele was a 2nd team Union County choice and Mueller and Isbrecht received honorable mention. The team aver- aged 23.2 points per game and scored 40 points against two opponents, Somerville and Rathway, while expending their win- ning streak to 23 games, a school record. The coaching staff introduced a new defense this year- It com- bined the talents of such defensive specialists as John Barnes, Randy Ellis, Charles Colucci, Fred Do err, George Berse and Dwight Davies with the regular team to hold the opposition to 46 points with 5 shutouts and 3 games of 7 points or under. Westfield's pride in its defensive players was demonstrated by the introduction of the Mr. Defense trophy which was awarded each game and the awarding of stars for recovered fumbles, intercepted passes and blocked kicks.

Soccer was introduced at Westfield High this fall. Rookie Coach Bjarne Tonneson and his team of junior and sopho- more boys made a united effort to learn and master the basic fundamentals in preparation for next year. Manager Bill Smart was instrumental in teaching these techniques. Playing established varsity teams from other schools, the team man- aged only a 1—6—1 record although they played exceptionally- well against the tough teams on the schedule. A sound defeat of Wardlaw and a tie with Clark highlighted the season. Bob Schram was the high scorer with 4 goals while Mike Braun had 3.

The cross country team this year was probably the best in the history of the school. Talented and well balanced at the beginning of the year, the team improved in total time every meet, until it won smashing victories in the Union County and Watchung Conference meets and close seconds in both the Central Jersey meet and the dramatic state finals. High spirits and many individual efforts by every mem- ber of the team keynoted the season.

STANDING: Phil Thowfey, Bob Whitaker, Dennis Burke, John Bonnon, Bid Richoid, Mike Cowles, Edward Joshua, Rick Schwarz, King is Kingl For any other feam a 21—3 record and an easy conquest of the County Championships would have been phenomenal, but Westfield had a team this year that, except for a freak setback, could have been state champs. Captain and 2nd team All American Bob King fed a talent laden group that boasted seven members who were all first string ma- terial. Playing under the pressure of having been sectional champs last yeor, the team developed into a closeknit, dedicated unit. Coach John Lay was able to use this spirit to perfect a precise, effective attack. The team's deadly offense and capable defense crushed some of the top powers in the state. The high point of the season came when it humbled Roselle Catholic and brought Westfield its first Union County Championship. The boys then went on to defeat Asbury Park in the state tournament by scoring with their first 9 shots before running out of steam and losing to Scotch Plains in overtime. The team revolved around the exploits of Captain Bob King, who rewrote Westfield record books. His records include; highest average 26.6; most total points 1329 for three years; most points per game 42,- and most rebounds 485. Bob Felter and John Bannon were the other big guns with 10.6 averages. Felter's moves and Bannon's hustle were exciting to watch. The backcourt duties were divided among three talented per- formers. Bob Whitaker had o deadly outside shot and was a superb ball handler, Dave Liscom the defensive ace, saved many ball games, and Mike Cowles was the best at dribbling and ball control, Doug Carver rounded out the starting seven with his ability to shoot well from any position, and Bruce Varnum was a reliable performer as a sub- stitute.

Its 42—41 vic- tory over Edison was supplemented by two fine victories in the AAU Development Meet. In the County Relays many individual efforts combined to give the team a close fourth place. The mainstay of the team proved to be the 2 mile relay squad.

A group of experienced senior performers contributed a large part to the suc- cess of the team this year. They were Captain Kurt Kaufmann, Fred Warfield, Bob Chambers, Bill Haney, Mike Ketcham, Steve Freiherr, and Lee Zeis. Captain Kauf- mann led a record-breaking assault in the state meet as the team easily doubled the second team's score.

This year's wrestling team had one of the most impressive lineups in the state. Among its members were 6 district champions and a state finalist. Starting with the lower weights, the team boasted such fine performers as Jim Powers (98), Bart Phelps (106h Page Stephens (115i, Dennis Minno (123), Ken Powers (130), Joe Wiendl (136), Bob Graf (141), and Jim Minno (148), Dennis Minno, Ken Powers, Jim Powers, and Joe Wiendl were district titlists and Min- no Finished second in the regionals. To compliment this group was WestFeld's own version of murderers' row. Led by Capt. and two years all-state 168 and 178 pounder Dave Morash, this quartet, including Bill Hedden (157), Earl Vigne (168), and Marty Howarth (HwtJ, compiled a combined record of 58—6, while rescuing West- field in several close matches. Bill Hedden and Dave Morash were district champions. The team compiled a 10—1 — 1 record this season, climaxed by strong victories over Union and Clifton and a come-from-behind tie with Cranford. A 2 point setback by Scotch Plains was the only blemish on the record. WestFeld avenged this, however, when it captured its Frst Union County District Championships from this team. 124 Joe Wiendl shoots for a double arm bar on his woy to o District Champion- ship.

Motino, Although it boasted only a 5—3 duel meet record last season, the track team was one of the strongest in the history of the school. Poor conditions hampered its opening bids, but the team quickly recovered under the guidance of Coach Walter Clarkson and As- sistant Coach Joe Della Badia. A strong finish was climaxed by 5th in Central Jersey, 2nd in the state, and WHS's first East Coast Championship. Co-captains Dave Coleman, a Va and V2 miler, and Jim Kovacs, a javelin hurler, along with Bob Hoffman, a talented shot put and discus man, led the team to its major victories. All three set school records in their specialties. This year co-captains elect Earl Vigne and Bob Meares lead a talented, well-balanced group of returning team members which should again make Westfield one of the top track powers in Union County. TENNIS ROW ONE: B. Sargent, S. Mondel, T. Perry, J. Loeber, D. Richardson, ROW TWO: C. Miller, R. Stub- Jer, P, Thowley, D. Hcmke, ROW THREE: Coach Tormesen. Although Coach Sam Bunting is returning after a year's leave of absence, the team may be hard pressed to match last year's 13—2 record. Led by Rookie Coach Bjarne Tonnesen, the team surpassed most expec- tations by reaching the state semi-finals be- fore bowing to Mountain Lakes. Brilliant performances by Team Captain Dave Rich- ardson and Bob Stuhler gave the team a tie for the Union County Championship. This year's team captain, Steve Booth, who had the best won-lost record last year, Stuhler, and Dan Hanke are expected to be the top players this year. Juniors Doug Eakeley and Phil Thawley, and some prom- ising sophomores will give the team re- serve strength which it lost in the gradua- tion of five lettermen last year. GOLF With the return of only one letterman, senior Bob Michaels, the outlook for the 1962 goff team looked bleak. Al- though the team's unbeaten skein of 42 matches was broken by a powerful Lin- den team, the linksmen later avenged that loss with a 1216 to 6V2 victory. This match saw Bob Michaels defeat the state champion, Dennis Troy. Michaels later finished second to Troy in the County Championships. Overall, the golf team recorded a 12—2 mark In dual matches and finished fifth in both the County and State Championships. The outlook for the '63 edition of the team looks bright. Returning lettermen Mike Ketcham, Kurt Kaufmann, and Af Crawford with strong support from John Buhler and Bob Claussen are expected to make WHS a power in 1963.

BASEBALL Coach John Lay, in his last year as mentor of the baseball team, saw a very promising season hurt by a slow start and bad luck. Seven close games were lost by only one run before the team managed its final 8—12 record. Co-captains Dicky Myers, an All-State choice, and Don Tokash along with Jerry Post were the mainstays of the team. This year promises to be better for new Coach Norman Koury, up from a successful 19—0 record with the J.V.'s last year. Nine returning letter win- ners should provide the team with the experience necessary for a winning season. Led by Captain Jim Smith, seniors Marty Howarth ond Dave Thomp- son, and juniors Nick Piscopo, Dwight Davies, Bill Myers and Charlie Wid- mer, the team can look forward to regaining its position as a top Union County team.

FIRST-CLASS FEMININE Field Hockey Two fall afternoons a week the girls of the field hockey teams could be seen hard at work on the school play- ing field. The juniors and seniors made up the Varsity team which was coached by Mrs. Carter and Miss Bobbi Schuler, a registered New Jersey hockey official. The team had a winning season, with a record of 5 wins, 2 losses, and 2 ties, terminated by a 2—0 shut- out over their long-time rivals Princeton. The sopho- more, or Junior Varsity team, coached by Miss Rugen, also had a successful season and shows potential and depth for coming years. Basketball was held weekly after school tor those girls interested in developing their basic skills, sense of sportsmanship, and team spirit. This year they learned the function of the roving player and applied their knowledge in afterschool interscho- lastic competition. The girls in square dancing, dressed in cotton skirts and fats to create an air of genuine- ness, learned numerous and varied dances. They began with easy dances, such as Duck for the Oyster, and developed their skills and technique so they could master more dif- ficult arrangements such as the Texas Star. Barb di Tralio executes an offensive funge which is stopped os Dinny Steams defends with o basic parry. Fencing is one of the newest and most popular activities of the girls' de- partment. The sport requires timing, coordination, and instant refex ac- tion. The girls develop these basic abilities and also put their knowledge to use in matches between themselves in the weekly afterschool meetings. Highlighting the season is the presentation of fencing duels at the annual spring program. 128 FUN FOR FITNESS . . . The art of tumbling requires balance, coordination, and muscle control. To condition themselves, the girls begin practices with a series of Canadian Air Force exercises. Then they go to the mats and prac- tice basic skills. Those with higher ability and in- terest develop more advanced stunts which are per- formed in the spring program. Martha Johansen and Irene Kazalski are demonstrating the Tin-a-cting. It is an interesting, imported dance which coordinates varying foot patterns with the rhythm of moving bamboo sticks, creating an organized pattern of movement. The versatility of the horse, one of the most papular pieces of ap- paratus, is shown by Karen Olson demonstrating an upsidedown hang. Precision, balance, and body control are necessary to Help!

The girls compose their own dances and extend their study of rhythm and movement. Under the di- rection of Mrs. Carter, this group demon- strated its accomplishments in the spring pro- gram and the GSC dance concert in May. Every Thursday afternoon over fifty girls, dressed in black leotards, attend beginners' modern dance. The group, under the supervision of Mrs. Carter, learned the basic fundamentals of dance and movement. They coordinated these movements in simple dances designed to improve their grace, poise, and body control. Along with the other dance groups, they present a polished performance at the spring program. Members of the advanced modern dance group cross the floor during an after school practice for their spring performances. A new addition to the dance program, this select performing group is chosen for their talent as well as ability to interpret. The eight members of the group do original compositions and this year based their main study on pre-classic dance forms. Their choreography was seen in the Thanksgiving assembly, the Physical Education Program, and the May dance concert. The members of the group also attended concerts in New York os part of their study of different dance styles. 131 The splendor of achievement „ . Our memories of Westfield High School will certainly be viv- idly colored by the splendid achievements of her students. In WHS there is a place for every accomplishment. Scholastic excellence is recognized by the National Honor Society; dra- matic desires are satisfied by the Mask and Mime plays; and musical gifts become a blazing band and the blending voices of our choirs. Others share their time and talents in ort ex- hibits, in the Christmas Tableau, and in literary endeavors for the Hi's Eye and the Weather Vane. We will remember both the talented and those behind the scenes whose imagination and encouragement fashioned the splendor of our achieve- ments. ’'SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER” On last November 2 and 3 the Mask and Mime dub presented its an- nual fall play. The production represented weeks of work by both the cast and by those backstage. Advised by Miss Carol Brinser, the group chose the play and committees for costumes, make-up, lighting and props. She Stoops to Conquer, an 18th century comedy, was a great suc- cess. The efforts of all were justly rewarded by the fine turnout and enthusiastic applause at the Friday and Saturday night performances. Mr. Marlow's timidity struck me at the first sight ' I learned to hold my bonds this way when I was up on drill for the militia.

The Choir traditionally sings for the Christmas Tableau and the Spring Music Festival. This year, under the direction of Mrs. Janet Gleason, the choir has been accompanied by Betty Jo Achilles, Steve Atwood, and Ed Parmentier. Rehearsals held twice a week during school and often before school have helped this group attain a high degree of quality and well-deserved recognition. 'Twelve'' To become a member of the 12 is the wish of many of the sophomore and junior girls of the WHS music department. The members of this vocal group are senior girls who have both musi- cal interest and talent. Under the direction of Mrs. Gleason, they prac- tice twice weekly for presentations to various groups — the Rotary Club, the Old Guard, and local church organizations. Included in their repertoire of three-part harmony are both show tunes, I Feel Pretty, Singin' in the Rain 7 and 'Til There Was You ' and religious music such as Non Nobis Domine and My Heart Ever Faith- ful ' Thirteen” To become a member of the 13 is an impres- sive goal for underclass boys. Like the 12, the Thirteen, talented senior boys, rehearse their four-part harmony with Mrs. Gleason twice weekly. They have sung with the Twelve on several oc- casions — United Nations Day and the rededica- tion of the Children's Specialized Hospital — and alone in numerous functions. The repetoire of the 13 includes It Had to Be You, The Little Things in Texas, Sweet Georgia Brown, and A Fella Needs a Girl. 137 The Boys' Glee Club I, under the direction of Miss Margaret Shaw, pro- vides training for the more advanced program — Boys' Glee Club II. During the year the group learns the basic musical skills. The club, accompanied by Mary Moffet, exhibits its fine talents in the Christmas Assembly as well as in the Annual Spring Music Festival. Under the direction of Mrs. Janet Gleason and the leadership of Steve Freiherr, Boys' Glee Club I! performed this year in both the annual Christmas Assembly and the Spring Music Festival. Boys from all three classes comprised the group. Accompanists for the group are Karen Koop and Gale Carter. The boys with their musical ability and interest derived satisfaction from the enthusiasm with which their performances, the culmination of hours of work, were received. Boys' Glee Club II Boys' Glee Club I 138 Girls’ Chorus I This year, for the first time, the girls' music department has been divided into three choruses. For girls wishing to gain musical experience. Girls' Chorus I af- fords an opportunity to develop and to display their talents. This beginner's group is conducted by Miss Margaret Shaw and accompanied by Linda Hafer, Intermediate Girls’ Chorus The Intermediate Chorus is comprised of girls who are in their second year of music. The chorus learns both enter- taining and challenging music. Miss Margaret Shaw is in charge of this group, and Gail Carter is the accom- panist. Girls’ Chorus I Girls' Chorus II, the most advanced cho- rus, represents the efforts of those girls who have had previous singing experi- ence. This chorus undertakes more dif- ficult pieces in an attempt to offer a challenge to its members. This group is directed by Mrs. Janet Gleason and ac- companied by Sherryl Meinshein and Mary Moffett. 139 Woodwind Ensemble Swing Band Band This year the band was particularly outstanding with their new dark blue uniforms that were worn for both marching and for formal occasions. Directed by Mr. Robert Banks, the WHS band performed at all the football games. Their detailed halftime routines were the culmination of much time and effort. The band also performed at the Blue Devil pep rallies and at the auditorium assemblies. Throughout the course of the year, the band shared its fine talents in formal presenta- tion: the traditional Winter Concert on January 12, and the Spring Pops Concert. Mem- bers of the band were also given the opportunity to participate in the woodwind en- semble and the swing band. The officers for this year were Dan Hanke, president; Frank Mitchell, vice-president; Ginny Metzler, secretary; and Lee Zeis, treasurer. HI'S EYE The Editorial Staff The Hi's Eye, with their adviser, Mr. Walter Clarkson, and the leader- ship of editor-in-chief, Kathy Roe, has reached new heights this year. For the first time, our school newspaper was published weekly. Among its many well-deserved awards were a first class honor rating from the National Scholastic Press Association, a first place from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association, and a first place rating from the Scho- lastic Press Association of New Jersey. The editorial staff included Barbara GiJmour, News Bureau Editor; Karen Kandra and Barbara di Trolio, News Editors; Roberta Gould and Buffy Rounds, Fourth-page Editors; Astrid Madea, Illustrations Edi- tor; and Steve Atwood and Bill MacKay, Sports Editors. The Business Manager was Bob Kefalonifis; Kubby Haskell handled advertising; and Brian Collins was in charge of circulation. 1963 WEATHER VANE . . . ROW ONE: R. Worthing, M, Johoosen, J. Prince, B.

Slowly, the sections were completed and the yearbook began to take its form; as the book grew, so we grew as individuals and as a unifted group. We learned to work together and accept disappointments as well as fulfillments of our expectations. At our work orgies we formed new, lasting friendships and strengthened old ones. But most im- portant, we all came to understand the amount of effort and de- votion that is required in a worthwhile project such as the re- cording of our senior year at WHS in what is now the 1963 Weather Vane, General Staff Art Advsier Mrs. Betty Schenck, 142 NOW IT’S HISTORY . . .

Throughout our years in high school we have been ,working toward a common goal by continually accepting more re- sponsibilities. Becoming seniors, leaders of our school, we have reached the zenith of our endeavors. As participants in all our school's activities, we have provided athletes for our teams, actors and actresses for our plays, staffs for our pub- lications, voices for our musical groups, and scholars to main- tain the school's fine reputation. Now that we have reached graduation, our goal and a turning point in our lives, we will go our separate ways. We may remember the dream of the past, but we will always keep the vision of the future before us. CLASS OF 1963 As underclassmen, we anticipated the privileges associated with the senior year: entering school through the senior door, attending the senior picnic and the senior banquet, working together for our own senior play, and being the guests of honor at the prom. The senior year arrived, and we realized our expectations. We had our picnic, our play, and our banquet. We also learned that the senior year was something else: it was SAT's and cofJege applications; it was career interests and job openings; it was being the leaders of our school. Throughout the year we lived, worked, and played, binding ourselves together in lasting ties of friendship. Graduation divides our class, but these friendships will live on. As we go to college, service, and employment, we enter a new phase of our lives. Our teachers have endeavored to prepare us; now we must utilize what we have learned. We have lived our todays well; let us now look toward tomorrow.
