J 'U 72 mln WM-1 WHITMAN ADMINISTRATIGN General Welfare fx ENERAL WELFARE of society is one of the aims of democracy. No other guarded the rights of a people as that established '10 Hknomig in the United States of , ,... .- b K v f . Nl' . 1 3 way of life has so safe- America. The individual's welfare-his opportunities and freedom-is protected by agencies that provide for the unemployed, the des- titute, and old ageg that control Hoods, and improve agriculture and industry. As in a democracy, so in education, the administration of a school exists for the good of the community and for the advancement and welfare of the student body. It inspires youth to strive for a higher standard of living and to gain a better ' understanding of his fellow-men. Thus knowledge, instead of force, becomes the weapon of tomorrow.

You must he thank' ful for them. But no privilege can he claimed without a corres' ponding ohligation, and the ohligations of democ' racy are heavy and demand many things. Willing' ness to guarantee to others rights you claim for yourself-fhesitancy to demand services from govern' ment which you are not willing to support hy taxatione-allegiance and loyalty hy word and deed to the form of government from which you claim these privilegesf Hnally, the consecration of your intellect and your ahility to the welfare of your communityf-these are the obligations of democracy. May you face the future with deep gratitude for the privilege of living in a democracy and with a full sense of the heavy ohligation which democf racy places upon you. HARRY L. STEARNS ,Y An Administrative Conference f PRI CIPAL More than one hundred and fifty years ago a group of famous statesmen assembled in Philadelphia to draw up a plan for our life together in America. Since then we, the people, have chosen men to rep' resent us in our nation, states, and communities. Vwle have heard a great deal in these days respecting the rights of private judgment, the rights of lahor, the rights of property, and the rights of man. At times we decided to change the original idea, hut for the most part we have followed it assiduously and have applied it to our modern life. That plan is for democracy. In a democracy we are all huilders, for we have heen given important roles, and its tasks are our heritage. Class of Nineteen Hundred and Forty: This heritage will soon he yours, and I have full confif dence that each of you will perform well your assigned duties. This is the rule of life today, As it has ever been: The world bestows its smile on those Vkfho have the strength to win. Beneath all outward semblances It looks for 'merit true, It little caves how much you know, But asks, what can you do?'l LLOYD L. LAMMERT I T1lI1'ft'CIZ EP I I BOARD GF EDUCATIO THE debt which we owe the Board of Education cannot be computed, for without their wise oversight our school would probably be unable to maintain its present favorable rating. Not only does this organization furnish us with a superior instrucf tional personnel, but it is quick to interest itself infand supportf-extrafcurricular activities. Under the gracious guiding of Mr. Gardner the Hne tradition of the Board is being continued. Mr. Woolley, long the keen and industrious Hnancial adviser of the Woodbury schools, occupies a specially important position which he fills admirably. Other members, all of whom make valued contributions of time and thought to the educational problems of our city, are Dr. Stearns, our Superintendentg Dr. Burkettg barrister john B. Wick, Mrs. Stratton, and Mrs. Watson. The last named was chosen to fill the vacancy caused by Harold K. Budd's resignation after a number of years of faithful service. Left to Right: Dr. Harry L.

In October the presentation of The Return of Peter Grimm by the Alumni Dramatic Players was a marked success. The Thanksgiving Day Victory Dance, the annual holiday festivity of the Yuletide Ball, and the thoroughly enjoyable Midwinter Carnival in January, all proved to be entertaining and delightful. Another activity was the establishment of a loan fund, to be available to any student worthy and in need of aid in furthering his education. ARLTON PILLING ,,...... .,...... P resident FLORENCE WILKINS ..... ........ S ecretary MAY MORGAN ........ .... ...Treasurer PARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIATION INDICATIVE of the renascence of the HifCentral ParentfTeacher Association is the rapidly expanding list of members, now numbering nearly Eve hundred indif viduals cooperating toward the goal of the more efficient education and increased welfare of all students. Mr. Howard Nelson of the faculty has proven a forceful but unassuming presif dent, able to gain the ready assistance of all concerned. Program chairman Vincent B. Faust, likewise of the faculty, deserves special commendation for his ability and industry in arranging such really outstanding events as the BackftofSchool Night, the Hobby Show, the lecture by Cameron Beck, and the joyous Fun Night. Besides Mr. Nelson, ofhcers are: Mrs. Cram Kline, first vicefpresidentg Mrs. Marshall Diverty, second vicefpresidentg Mrs. Malcolm Thomas, corresponding secref tary, Mrs. Alfred Francis, recording secretary, and Mrs. Ralph Weldie, treasurer. As heretofore, the association has rendered much valuable help to underfprivif leged children and other worthy causes. Space does not permit a mention of all of the many benefactions of this group, but it is enough to point out that the association is fulfilling with new vigor its important function as the primary link between the school and the home. May this link grow ever stronger with the passing years! Fifteen R FACULTY ENGLISH DEPARTMENT S ALWAYS, the English Department , strove to strengthen the ideas and ideals of American democracy. To further this, the students participated in the American Youth Forum, the Cultural Olympics at the University of Pennsylvania, and several other oratorical contests, hoth county' and statef wide. The department hopes to give a hattery of Reading, Usage, and Composition Tests to all pupils in May of each year. A hsginning has already heen made on this. lt plans to use these results with teachers' ratings to classify the pupils in the first two years according to their needs in these three hranchcs of English. Furthermore, the department hopes to offer to pupils of exceptional ahility elective courses in English. The date for starting this plan is, however, somewhat indefinite. SOCIAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT In our Social Studies Department conf temporary history was stressed. Radio programs were used more extensively than ever before. Town Meetiiig, American Cavalf cade, and news reports were part of the curf riculum. The Presidents address to Congress was heard in several history classes. The Economics Department emphasized consumers' prohlems. Trips hecame more popular. Several groups visited the Stock Exchange and radio station WEIL. The American Legion contest was entered for the first time this year. Several of our seniors, sophomores, and a freshman expressed their ideas on Americanism, MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT The Mathematics Department offered pref liminary academic training for those who plan to enter college, technical schools, or extension courses to study engineering, ap' plied science, or mechanics. lt also provided less technical training in everyday inathcf matics in the development of our present civilization. For a selected group of freshmen, a coordif nated course in mathematics and science was Miss De Witt, Mr. Deist, Nlr. Allen, Miss Baker, Mrs. Baird, Miss Brown, Miss Wiggins, Mr. Byerly ACTIO ! offered. All courses emphasized careful reading, analysis, accuracy, and the satisfacf tion in doing independent thinking. FOREIGN LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT The Foreign Language Department strove to correlate its activities, not only with the English, history, art, and music departments, but also within itself. A certain amount of attention was given to the history, geography, government, customs, and arts of the nations whose languages were studied, along with the routine grammar and vocabulary. This helped to provide a backf ground of culture, thus broadening the stu' dent's outlook. Clear and accurate thinking and a morc thorough insight into our own language, its structure, use, history, and vocabulary, def vcloped as a result of the studying of foreign languages. SCIENCE DEPARTMENT The Science Department carried on much the same as in past years. Special courses in physics and biology have been added to the curriculum for the benefit of those students taking the General course. These are useful and informative courses, which are not ref quired. The biology pupils studied outdoors in co' ordination with their class work. In Dccemf ber they held their annual exhibit of wreaths. In April, the classes celebrated State Conf servation Week. Attempts were made to secure material from manufacturing concerns, so that chem' istry students might observe for themselves how chemistry is used in industry. The classes also took a trip to the Franklin Institute. COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT This year the Commercial Department cn' deavored to create closer contact with busif nessmen. The faculty were served a luncheon at which the latter, as guests, were asked to give their exact expectations of a commercial graduate and the weaknesses they had dis' covered thus far. The businessmen enlisted Mr. Paine, Mr. Legg, Miss Fritchey, Mr. McKay, Miss Moore, Mr. Hill, Mrs. Campbell, Miss Barber, FACULTY their wholefhearted cooperation to give com' mercial seniors unlimited experience in thi husiness world which is their future. The aim of the Commercial Department was so to train the students that they will he prof iicient in certain skills that are a requisite for ohtaining a position, and that they will def velop desirahle traits of character and a pleas' ing personality. PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT Under the ahle direction of Miss Bess Taylor and Miss Lillean Hilhert, many green and white clad lassies participated in various activities, such as haskethall, volleyhall, howling, shufllefhoard, pingfpong, and had' minton. The girls were divided into squads, with one girl acting as captain over each squad. Each week the activity was changed. Boys' gym classes were carried on in a similar fashion. Showers were provided for those who desired them. The hoys participated in foothall, haskethall, matfwork, rope climhf ing, weight throwing, and hox hockey. MUSIC DEPARTMENT Under the direction of Miss Klepfer. our ahle Music Supervisor, excellent music has heen produced. The Senior Chorus, which has a special class on Fridays for music rehearsals, provided very impressive programs at Christmas time and the Spring Festival, Mr. Byerly, director of instrumental music, has increased the scope of the hand and or' chestra. The fine drill work and the ex' cellent music at hoth the foothall games and assemhly periods were provided hy the hand. The orchestra has achieved higher cultural standards in familiar and favorite music. The Bugle and Drum Corps, under the direction of Mr. Byerly, received congratulaf tions from the school and townspeople for its perfect drill work and for its award at Bridgef ton Parade in Octoher. The annual Music Festival was a signal success. Miss Sellers, Miss Fitzgerald, Mr. Taxis, Miss Huh- ter, Miss Hyde, Miss Heppard, Mr. Keebler, Miss Baessler FACULTY INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT ln the Mechanical Drawing and Wotudf working Departments, Mr. Nelson and Mr. McKay aim to develop in an individual the hahit of careful, thoughtful work without loitering or wasting time: to teach him cooper' ation, and an attitude of pride and interest in his ahility to do useful things. Mrs. Harper, sewing teacher in Miss Burf ehinal's ahsence, has ideas closely allied with those of Mr. Nelson and Mr. McKay. Sensihle styles in clothing, ahility to choose patterns which are suitahle to the individual, and to teach her students that the simplest things are the finest things are a few of her standards. As a result of the teaching of Miss Moyer, our cooking instructor, the girls, mainly of the home management classes, have gained greater skill. Besides instructing our students in preparing good food, Miss Moyer plans that each pupil ought to attain neatness, thrift, and an ahility to do things this individual will he proud of. ART DEPARTMENT Certainly one of the most energetic and eflicient departments of the school is the Art Department, directed for a numher of years hy Miss Helen M. Wzillace, an artist of recognized talents and an inspiring teacher. Activities sponsored hy the department inf clude the Flower Showg Senior Play Sceneryg postersg SUN DIAL art workg exhihits at the Cultural Olympics, the Sketch Cluh, and the Vxfornen's Cluhs' annual meeting in Atlantic Cityq and the various projects of the .Art Cluh.

The necessity for education has been recognized since the founding of this country. Six- teen years after the Mayflower landed at Plymouth, a college was established. Our ancestors believed in the instruction of men that they might learn the ways of life and cooperation. Today these opportunities are extended to all men and women.

'T 'reasurer N THESE four workffilled years we students have gained much-the assuming of individual responsibilities, a broaderfmindedness from our various studies, and keen enjoyment in the form of friendships, sports, and social activities. Upon entering this unfamiliar type of school life, we had as our advisory teacher Mrs. Price. The idea was conceived during that year of conducting freshman assemblies in the old studyfhall room, which is now the library. This, however, proved unsuccessf ful and was discontinued after a time. There was active participation by this freshman'class in clubs, music, and sports. We had begun to realize what were our privileges and obligations as citizens of a democratic school. The sophomore's advisor was Miss Fitzgerald. Our Sophomore Hop decorations were very effective. The gymnasium was transformed for the occasion into a veritable ship's deck, and Warner Haines' Musicians supplied smooth music. Four of the students who had achieved popularity because of their leadership and abilities were elected officers of our class. They were John Murdoch, presidentg Louis Hyde, vicefpresidentg Betty Moreland, secretary, and Betty Butcher, treasurer. Thus our first two years ended. We had now rather thoroughly oriented ourselves to this pleasant whirl of studies and fun, and were ready to advance a larger, more significant step. As our junior year progressed, we looked forward to the greater opportunities offered to thirdfyear students who diligently and fervently seek after them. The Twenty-three zvvuly-fi Left: Henry Aldrich, you cheated in that examination Center fTopl: Miss Wheeler and Mr. Ferguson-a sure-fire combination Honor Society, for example, is comprised of juniors and seniors who have exhibited such diligence and interest in class studies, and in the application of upright character to purposes of henelit to the school. The students so honored in our junior class were Raymond Belcher, Barhara Blensinger, Ruth Carey, Virginia Cushing, Rohert Fields, Beatrice Hassan, Edith Hudson, Louis Hyde, Thomas lVlcGinnis, Louis lvloffett, Thelma Nicolaisen, Kay Richardson, Kathryn Sanderson, and Betty Story. Our 'unior thesians were hiwhl commended for ade t inter retations of their A J V I P -is Y N P P M ' parts in the junior playf-fa spritely comedy, Through the Keyhole, written hy Willizini F. Davidson. The cast included Victoria Stewart, Eileen Pronier, Raymond Belcher, Kay Richardson, Kathryn Sanderson, Pierson Hannock, William Stratton, and Sam Price. To re resent our class in our enultimate vear we elected Louis H de, . P . . p I V president, Kay Richardson, vicefpresidentg Betty Moreland, secretary, and Betty Story, treasurer. Almost hefore we realized it, the senior year had arrivedf'-the most important, most eventful year of all, and the one at the end of which each of us hoped to emerge holding victoriously a precious diploma. Cornstalks and pumpkins appropriately decked the gymnasium at our Hallowe'en Dance on Octoher 28. Everyone had a grand time strutting to the strains of Wzilt Connors orchestra. The JuniorfSenior Prom enjoyed the usual success this year. It was held on May 25, and was colorful and exciting indeed. Center !Boltoml2 Typical knowledge-seekers Right Rush hour in the high school oilice Characteristic of democracy has heen our rotation of class ofhcers. The maiority of the students elected to oflices possess newlyfacquired leadership. Choices of the seniors were: Louis Long, presidentg Pierson Hannock, vicefpresidentg Betty Moreland, secretaryq and Betty Haines, treasurer. This year the senior girls were asked to choose a rnemher of their sex to represent Vxfoodhury High School in a D. A. R. trip for representatives from all states. Our choice was Marie Schultes, personality girl from National Park, The delegation met on March 14. Of our senior class the following earliest and helpful students were elected to the Honor Society to join those chosen last year: Clara Allen, Rose Ballistrcri, Virginia Bates, Patricia Betts, Helen Braun, Grace Dunham, Bernyce Dvorkin, Katherine Fowler, Jeanne Cillwert, Margie Harwood, Edith justice, Peter Kaiser, Eleanor Lloyd, Dorothy Parker, Lois Parker, Sam Price, Margaret Redfield, Marie Schultes, and Rohert Thompson. The girls of our class who joined the Bugle and Drum Corps recall with pleasure that they were the first to helong to this unique organization. Dorothy Parker has successfully led the corps throughout its Hrst two years. Mr. Byerly's expert directing obviously hrings out many latent musical alwilities. Extraordinary efforts exerted hy actors and actresses resulted in a hugely successful senior play, presented on March 7 and S. It was the popular threefact comedy, iiwllilt a Life, hy Clifford Goldsmith, which proved to he one of the most apropos senior plays evcr staged in Vkfoodlwury. Plot: the delightful, realistic story of Henry Aldrich, an unfortunate junior at Central High School. fNo reflection on the Philadelphia institution of that namej Throughout the play, Henry encounters ohstacle after ohstaele- some of his own making, some not- in the attempt to gain confidence in himself. and uphold his mother's and his girl friends trust in him. Because he constantly fails, the one scene of the play is the principals other. However, All's well that ends well, we find that the villain is other than Henry. Why was this an ideal play for a high school? Because it featured the average carefree student. We are sure that it was appreciated hy our parents and their friends. Henry was aptly portrayed hy Willizinm Sutton. The rest of the east, all of whom assumed their roles efhciently, consisted of Dorothy Parker, Eleanor Lloyd, Raymond Belcher, john lvlilton, Rohert Fields, Sophia Mzlleii, Ruth Carey, Bernyce Dvorkin, Barhara Canhy, jane Tucker, Charles Ivliserendino, Nlargaret Bahnew, William Beck, Louis Long, Samuel Priee, Helen Braun, Edith Hudson, Lois Parker, Ruth Gray, Betty Haines, Claire Verdier, Rohert Raymer, Frank Fletcher. and David Allan.

J 1 of the plcasingly appropriate scenery planned by Miss Wallace and Mr. Nelson. Likewise we extend our thanks to the backstage workers for able execution of their duties. ' The class has been quite active in Student Council work. Moreover, as captains of different sports, various students have availed themselves of opportunities for leadership training. Great interest has also been shown, by the class, in music: those who joined the orchestra, band or chorus both aided the school and further developed their individual talents. Climaxing the activities of our four years came the longfanticipated Washixigtcvii trip-ffMay 9, 10, and 11. We spent those days touring in happy awe the nations capital. When we returned home late Saturday night, quite tired but immensely enthusiastic, we had acquired from our trip much prized experience and a host of delectable memories. Education in a democracy should always include a journey of this sort to the functional center of government. The end of the senior year, like the Janus of the Romans, always looks in two directions- -back over the active years of school and ahead to the more important, more diilicult years of adulthood. Ideals and ideas gainel in high school will be a staunch support 'Dunn for use on our way through an increasingly bewildering world.

Moreover, curricular and extrafcurricular activities have enhanced the development of many of these students as interesting individuals possessing definite abilities and needs. As sophomores the class elected the following officers: Harry jordan, president, james Boakes, vicefpresidentg Helen Moreland, secretaryg Walter Rogers, treasurer. During the current year three of these were reelected, while Irene Schultes was chosen as the new vicefpresident. Last year two members of the class-Harry Jordan and Walter Rogers-served on the Student Council. This year Irene Schultes, Walter Rogers and Harry Wilson participated in the important function of student government under Miss Brown's inspiring leadership. The climactic moment for all second-year students is the Sophomore Hop. The class of 1941 held theirs on March 24, 1939. All the traditional glamor of the event was present. The gymnasium became a fairyland of pastelfhued streamers, with a giant spider web in the middle. One of the most signiicant happenings of the present year was the annual Junior Play. For this the fourfact comedy Foxy Mr. Foster was selected. Written by Bruce Bronson, it had a highly successful presentation under Mr. Milton's direction on December 8, 1939. The cast: Lynn Foster, Alice Davis, the bridegroomftofbe, jim Howleyg the mother, Jean Thomas, a very excitable but loving husband, James Boakesg the sisterfinflaw, jane Cluttsg the maid, Marilyn Godfrey, the scientist, William Murphy, the business woman, jean Hungerfordg the Southern gal, Mary Valentine, and the wise guy, Gene Horan.

As freshmen, they subsequently made the upperclassmen sit up and take notice. They were introduced to their new life partly through the home room programs, these programs presenting ideals of scholarship and leadership which became the aim of almost every member. During the freshman year the class was active in clubs and sportsj Many of the freshmen entered the Junior Chorus, the Masque and Triangle, Chess, and Photography Clubs. The class was glad when the year ended, so they could enter other extrafcurricular fields with additional activities. Miss Fitzgerald, the Sophomore Class adviser, launched the class upon its second year of high school life. Some students entered Les Commencants and Der jugendf kreis. Many others joined the high school orchestra, White and Gold staff, Dramateurs, Art Club, Print Club, Nurses' Club, the Senior Chorus, Stamp Club, and band. Oflicers of the class were: Robert Moore, president, Landi De Girolamo, vice' president, Madeline Sayre, secretary, and Betty Bender, treasurer. l S ixty-one SOPHOMORES HOME ROOM 24 Fourth Row: Edward O'Brien.

SOPHOMORES Sixty-four SOPHOMORES The most significant undertaking of the Sophomore Class was the annual Sopho- more Hop, held on April 26th this year. Milton Mann and his orchestra supplied the right kind of music in an appealing manner. The affair, as per usual, drew a large crowd. The orchestra committee for the hop consisted of Chairman Priscilla Dilkes, Robert Moore, Robert Sellen, Phil Nace, Grace Mathis, and Claude Grant. The Decoration Committee for the dance was made up of Chairman Ruth Horan, Mary Alice Grant, Jeanne Mickle, Peggy Claypoole, Dick Trescott, Alice Schoener, Alma Overmyer, Priscilla Fuller, Phyllis Welsh, Betty Bender, William Stoyko, Landi de Girolamo, and Albert Lawrence. The Reception Committee consisted of Jeanne Mickle, Jim Underwood, Claude Grant, Betty Bender, Albert Lawrence, Virginia Nelson, Patty Mehorter, Bob Allen, Dick Trescott, and Robert Moore. The Sophomore Class was well represented in every activity of the school. At the football games, two cheerleaders from the Sophomore Class, Doris Steward and Claude Grant, were often substitutes for varsity cheerleaders. Bob Moore, Landi De Girolamo, and Reds Shisler will help to compose future varsity football teams. 'While so far the girls have not been mentioned, that does not mean they have not been active in sports. Those who participated in hockey and made the junior varsity, or second team, were Marie Putiri, Elizabeth Donohue and Ruth Tussey. Other girls of the class were interested in other sports and tried out for the basketball team. These girls made the second team: Marie Putiri, Beatrice Poole and Elsie Glover. Many students of the class aimed for scholastic achievements. Their time and effort brought success in many instances when their names appeared on the Honor Roll. In their junior and senior years these students will have a good chance of making the National Honor Society. They are Marjorie Blackwood, Dorothy Whittle, Evangeline Kokos, Marie Haas, Betty Roemer, Helen Barry, Eugenie Chazal, Jeanne Mickle, Dorothy Cooke, Elaine Curry, Estelle Wilson, Virginia Nelson, Albert Lawrence, Angle Stoyko, Robert Kalbach, John O'Brien, Michael Willows, James Izzo, Olwen Davies, and William Stoyko. ' One girl in the class, Elaine Curry, showed even greater ability, she was the only sophomore girl to enter the Cultural Olympics at the University of Pennsylvania. On this occasion she presented two original poems entitled My Raggedy Ann and Seashore To sum matters up, then, it appears that here is a class which is proving itself worthy of theadvantages made available to it. To point accurately to the precise stimuli which they have experienced by their contacts with curricula and clubs were impossible, but let no one doubt that by these media are being formed better inte' grated personalities and more efficient future citizens of our democracy. During the third and fourth years of high school it is to be hoped that the ideal of hard work will become more deeply implanted in some of these students-as in others of our enrollment-for the continuance of a nation governed by the people themselves is largely dependent upon individual capacity for sustained and intelligent work. Dolce far nientc may have been an agreeable philosophy for a few persons in an era of peace and prosperityg today it is an anacronism. In whatever era, however, the high standards of conduct to which our boys and girls adhere will be a guarantee of personal and national satisfaction, a bulwark against the encroachments of less noble forces, a proof of the worthy lessons taught by school and church and home to the Americans of tomorrow. it 1 ' , FRESI-IMAN CLASS HE class of 1943 entered school last fall with a spirit of great enthusiasm in connection with the high school- life. In spite of their small size they have made the upper classmen definitely aware of their presence. It is said that this year's fresh' men are on their toes in the school's activities. They have realized their fellowship and relationship with the teachers and upper classmen. Each pupil has become a small cog in the great wheel of our democratic school system in Woodbury. The freshmen have played an important part in sports. The girls' hockey team is under the direction of Miss Hilbert. She can be very proud of these girls for their good work in hockey. The boys' football team worked hard and promises some real material for the future. The FreshfSoph football awards were presented to the follow' ing boys in 1939: Robert Cranston, Joe Brandola, Pete Pisecco, Tillman DeCantlice, Russel Girard, William Ingram, Warren Carpenter, Edward Barnett, jack Grant, William Beard, John Grant, George King, Donald Thoma, Mike Yourison, Louis Nelio, Jack Ehrman, Bud Jaggard, John Landberg, Kenny Wesc'ott, Robert Fink, James Underwood. A large number of freshman boys and girls became interested in high school sports. In basketball and baseball the boys and girls are looking forward to bigger and better teams. The problem of having assemblies for the Freshman Class has been solved. Each Wednesday morning, after the Hrst assembly for upperclassmen, the identical program is given in the auditorium for the freshmen and sophomores. The pep and enthusiasm for the cultural performances in the second assembly have been very noticeable. Through the help of Miss Klepfer, guest artists of music appeared in different freshman assemblies. The artists noted the musical appreciation of the entire freshman assembly. Every other Thursday morning the freshmen discussed, debated, and some drama' tized the problems brought up in the home room periods. The programs were directed by leaders and committees of the home rooms. The programs for the year of 1940 were problems of scholarship, sportsmanship, good manners, dance etiquette, school spirit, courtesy, and the government of the school. Special attention was given to the importance of the Student Council and the freedom that it gives to each pupil that enters Woodbury High School. The class includes some dancers and musicians. This year the evening dances havebeen attended by many prominent freshman boys and girls. The musical ability of the freshman boys has been shown in the band and orchestra under the direction of Mr. Byerly. The girls' talent in buglfe and drum playing has evidence in the skillful practicing of the freshman Bugle and Drum Corps. The Junior Chorus contains some very colorful voices and talented singers. The freshmen were noted in the music festival of May 17, 1940 for having excellent tone qualities. The public was very pleased with such a colorful chorus of freshman boys and girls. They are basic notes for a glorious Senior Chorus in the next three years. A few freshmen, as soon as they entered high school in September, began to think 'of their future. They joined clubs and extrafcurricular activities that the high school life offers them. The clubs that are open to freshmen are the Junior Chorus, Masque and Triangle Club, Girl Reserves, Library Club, Chess Club, and Photography Club. Among the class of 1943 are many excellent students. More and more of them have been on the Honor Roll throughout the year. Many of the studious freshmen received their laurels and glory by having their names placed on the Honor Roll as a sign of excellent work. The following are the students who have had their names on the honor list in the year of 1939f1940. Donald Brown, Clarence Jaggard, Carmen Maiese, Hazel Weldie, Raymond Jones, Jacqueline Binder, Jean Elnetzke, Ralph Givens, Frederick Spoerl, Lola Davis, Bonnie Justice, Jacqueline Simon, Dorothy Bowers, Maria Buffum, Marian Davis, jean Justice, Betty Nieder, Janice Beck, Pauline Cramer, Jean Evans, Eleanor Vaneman, George Johnson, Richard Skinner, Helen Weber, john MacLeod, Margaret DeCani.

As Webster would put it: an imaginary isle where perfection exists in social life, politics, and government. As we students put it: the height 'of essence, a perfect school. First of all, instead of the incessant need to arise in the morning at sevenfthirty and tramp blearyfeyed to school, we would get up leisurely, maybe at the crack of dawn fabout tenfthirtyj and eat with all slowness and ease. Then when one desired to attend classes, he could call the school and the school station wagon would see to it that he was taken to school. Rather than have those horrible, blasting buzzer bells to mark the close of the class periods, something like a nice, gently blonde voice saying, If it is convenient, you may leave nowg discussion will continue sometime tomorrow, would be much better. And as for quenching one's thirst, there would be no slurping of warmish, guckish water, but ah! cherry sodas seeping from fountains in the wall. Oh! and those beastly fire drills-no more of those, for at the given time, the janitors would roll the class rooms out onto the grounds on special shutes. For those who enjoy midfday melodies on the NinefTwenty Club, portable radios would be furnished with all chairs in the class rooms. NO, not that! No more chairs-studio couches would take their places, allowing the muchfneeded rest after a hard night's work. UQ Something must be done about the long and tiring walk from room to room between classes. Ah! a solution-escalators and shutes would ably carry you to the required location. To suit the dancing enthusiasts, moving corridors and hallways with pushfbutton control would manage your safe deliverance to your next class. Class! what a horrible, detonating item of a student's repertoire! Why not rest period? That would be so much more appropriate. P Horrors! while seeking the desired, why not deal with gym periods? Instead of taking part in those overfexerting ten pins or hop scotch specialties now offered, aqua' planing behind fast auxiliary schooners, or a quick trip to Waikiki beach in Hawaii for surf riding, would be the real McCoy! And for those who insist on being late, a book of passes could be obtained from the office at no cost whatsoever. .1 With all of these in working order, school would no longer bli: a living night' marish ordeal: it would be a pleasant pastime-Oh heavens alive, stop it! but go on, I love it!!

Throughout the term, meets are held in which members of the club are encouraged to participate. These meets are classified as to speed, weight, wingspread, endurance, and originality. This year the Aeronauts made a trip to the Rising Sun School of Aeronautics in Philadelphia, where they were shown through the laboratories, shops, and classrooms. Each year the Aeronauts and the Industrial Club hear Mr. Shaeffer, engineer in charge of assembly and testing at the Naval Aircraft factory, Philadelphia Navy Yard, discuss fundamentals of modern airplane construction. From the foregoing paragraphs, one can readily see why the Aeronauts is a popular club in Woodbury High School. MEMBERS WALLACE HIJLDSTEIN .... ...............

Some members made leather pocketbooks, the designs for which were origf inal. The design is traced on the leather and then tooled. The pocketbook is sewed together with strips of leather. It requires skill and patience to manipulate the leather tools. Other members made leather bookmarkers, likewise original in design and often with fringed ends. Several girls also made silver bracelets. A strip of silver is bent so that it will fit around the arm. Perhaps the most fascinating activity of all was clay modeling. The students molded heads, faces, full figures, and animals. The heads were in some cases those of famous persons, and usually the faces expressed emotional states by means of smiles, frowns, and so on. Full figures took the forms of football players, peasant girls, and other people accustomed to plenty of action. This work requires both skill and patience, for each little crease and fold must be exact. Also, the painting is diiiicult.

CLUBS BANKERS COMMERCIAL juniors, seniors, and a few sophomores made up the membership list of the Bankers' Club. Each member collected the money from the students in his assigned home room. The club secretary recorded the deposits, and then the money was deposited in a local bank. Very little business besides the actual collection of money was carried on, so that regular meetings were not held. No dues were collected, since the members had no social activities. The photograph taken for the year book was the only activity of the club for the year. Since the percentage of students taking advantage of banking in the school is still low, the club tried to encourage banking through posters and slogans. Many wise students realized the value of this activity in their senior year. Through their savings from the freshman to the senior years they were able to enjoy the Washington trip taken by their class. A democracy that can't balance its budget needs Hnanciers like these! A penny saved is a penny earned. - MEMBERS GERTRL'nE SCHXNEMMER .,..........,....... Pvesident JEAN LACY ..........................,....... VicefPres1dent MILDRED EXLEY ............. ............,..

For each meeting a speaker was obtained. lviost of the topics discussed by thc guests afforded those present not only a variety of technical facts, but also a great deal of practical information. At Christmas time, as a club project, two needy families profited by the club's assembling a considerable amount of food and preserves as Christmas gifts to them. As another project the members of the club pooled their resources, hired a bus, and with permission of the Board of Education took a day off from school to inspect the worldffamed Franklin Institute.

Chemists of tomorrow? CLUBS C l-I E S S HE invention of chess has been variously ascribed to the Greeks, Romans, and Baby' lonians. The real master of the game must not merely know the subtle variations of the game, but must be able to apply his knowledge in the face of an enemy and to call to his aid, as occasion demands, all that he has of foresight, brilliance and resource, both in attack and defense. The game is exceedingly hard to play, and skill is ob' tained only after long hours of practice. During our tournaments, which were held thc latter part of the year, one could hear a pin dropvuthat is, if one dropped a pin. The room was divided into two sections, one for chess players and one for checkers. Players sat opposite each other with hands cupped under their chins and with interested expressions on their faces. Sometimes a half hour passed between moves! Mr, Gooden, head of the Guidance Department, was the supervisor and teacher.

The club consists of sixty students under the guidance of Miss Frances Fritchey. The members have spent many happy hours in singing German folk songs, Christmas carols, and classical music. Every member is on the alert to bring a richer meaning to the club concerning the life of the farfaway land. There have been presented German puzzles, short plays, games, current events of Germany, and dis' cussions. Through projects of this club the members now exchange numerous letters with correspondents in Germany. By contact with German people, the pupils get a broader and more colorful picture of Deutsches Leben. The club presented a short duets and poems for the school assembly.

Seventy-five CLUBS in i -if .SSC ZJC!1fy-SL1' INDUSTRIA THE activities of the Industrial Club were worthwhile and truly beneficial to its members. Speakers from the industrial world presented to the group a broader view of possible vocations. Some of the topics discussed by these guests were heating and plumbing, secretarial work, seamanship, service station operating, store management, and florist work. Mr. Faust, head of the English department, also addressed the club. By means of discussions, students were enabled to see the advantages and disf advantages ot the various vocations. This information will help them greatly in choosing and following their careers. The members have a better understanding of how, when, and where to apply their knowledge and abilities when they go out into the world to seek success. Through the cooperation of the Public Service Corporation, moving pictures were presented to the student body and the members of the Industrial Club. MEMBERS Bill Andrews.

As a result of less frequent meetings, the programs were even better than in previous years. As has been the custcm for some time, members enjoyed corresf ponding with French people, whose letters were exceedingly interesting. At Christmas time, several members of the club took part in an entertainment which included a pantomime representing the Nativity, and Christmas Eve in El French home. During thc season, Miss Vkfallace addressed the members on France's contribution to the field of art. As a supplement to her interesting talk, the French Club and the Art Club, chaperoned by Misses Baker and Wallace, visited the Art Museum in Philadelphia, where French treasures displayed at the WorId's Fair were exhibited. An interesting spot was the room which had just been outhtted entirely with furniture of the age of Louis XVI.

This was achieved in a very enterf taining and instructive fashion. By singing various types of songs, playing games, conducting contests and displaying articles of French workmanship, the members became acquainted with many fascinating phases of French life. On the list of activities was the trip to the Philadelphia Art Museum and the Rodin Museum. Cnc of the highlights on the club's calendar was the Christmas program which, headed by Eugenie Chazal, proved to be extremely successful. This program featured talks which related the customs of the French. Each member had the opportunity to help in the planning of mietings by serving on the program committee. Not only did the beginners increase their knowledge of the language by correspondf ing, but they also greatly benefited from the sharing of opinions with their democratic brothers and sisters.

Thirtyfiive girls attended the Hrst meeting and others have joined since, making a membership of forty. The motto of the club is I Serve. This presents a wide scope and we have undertaken several projects. . At the present time we are centering our interests in the Gloucester County Home for the Aged and also the Veterans' Hospital in Coatesville, Pa. For Valentine's Day, Easter, and Memorial Day we have made favors and decorated napkins. It is our plan to make those less fortunate than ourselves a trifle happier through our efforts. Several of our members are compiling a scrap-book of Woodbury and high school activities to send to the mountainous region of Tennessee. We hope in this manner to strike up an intersectional correspondence. We are very fortunate in having the Library Club's cooperation in our scrap' book work, and the Manual Training Department has promised to make us ash-trays to send to the Veterans' Hospital.

It serves to promote the interest of those pupils who are desirous of improving their puhlic speaking ahility. Diction and enunciation have heen considerahly improved among its memhers. The president assigned topics to various committees, who in turn commented upon those matters of vital interest in the modern thought movement that is sweeping the country today. There was a wealth of material availahle. The war, its vicious propaf ganda, and the hypothetical Third Term provided dehatalwle and stimulating' topics. The cluh presented many interesting Amateur and Professor Quiz shows. It provided for the inscription of the names of outstanding participants of the amateur shows upon a plaque which hangs in the Principal's ofhce.

Work is fun, and these folks show it CLUBS NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY THE National Honor Society is composed of girls and boys who are outstanding in character, scholarship, leadership, and service. Their aims are to arouse a deeper interest in scholarship particularly, and to raise our school's scholastic standing still higher. All work and no play is not their motto. A This club entertained the neighboring Honor Societies of Collingswood and Haddon Heights at a Christmas party. At this time a discussion was held on the activities of the societies, methods of election, and induction ceremonies. After this, games were played. In March the Honor Society sponsored a pie and cake sale which was a grand success. In April they had their impressive induction ceremony, formally to admit the newlyfelected. Upon an altar, eloquent candles representing the torch of knowledge burned during the ceremony. This torch was passed on to the new members.

Eiylzly-mic CLUBS URSES ' THE Nurses' Club comprised a group of ambitious girls w o s becoming nurses. Included in their activities were reports on the requirements of various hospitals, guest speakers, discussions, and visits to Philadelphia hospitals. They found that the requirements of hospitals vary somewhat, but all have certain basic essentials. These include a pleasing personality, willingness to help, sound health, and graduation from a high school academic course. To be a good nurse a girl must have the ability to take orders without talking back, trustworthiness, and skill in taking care of patients. She must be eighteen or nineteen years of age before she can enter a nursing course. In the Philadelphia hospitals, members inspected the wards, utility rooms, diet kitchens, recreation rooms, nurses' quarters, classrooms, and the sundecks. In conf nection with this club there was a Big Sister Club, composed of girls in training at hospitals, who write to the girls in the Nurses' Club. h are desirous of The spirit MEMBERS Marion Bates, Barbara Blensinger, Betty Edith McGee, Kathryn Pime, Ethel Poms tt Bradley, Dolly Brown, Betty Carey, Jeanne Beatrice Poole, Katherine Racbor, Betty Coleman, Mary Colgan, Ceclia Corsey, Eleanor Robinson, Jessie Robinson, Pauline Savage Dann,Marian Davis, Olwen Davies, Ruth Gray, Gladys Truxon, Esther Vandegrift, Alma Gladys Harrison, Betty Hartzell,june Holdstein, Wallsren, Rhea Wartena, Alice Weatherby Marjorie Howey, Catherine jones, Jean Lacy, Catherine Wert, jean Wilkins, Dorothy Wil Malen, Lillian Martin, son, Estelle Wilson, jean Zaph.

After serving a period of six weeks as a neophyte, the candidate stands a fair chance of being admitted within the sacred walls of this exclusive club. The club makes a practice of serving the school by supplying tickets and posters for the cost of materials, and very frequently does jobs without any charge whatsoever. With the small profits gained, new type and material are bought. This keeps the work and style of the printing ranking in upftofdateness with that of many private concerns. As a reward of gratitude for each members work, in the second year of his membership he is prezcnted with a club ping and upon his graduation he is given a pen and pencil set, or something of that sort, in recognition of four years of un' solicited work for the club.

CLUBS SCIENCE T HERE are about eighteen members in the Science Club, which is new this year, but making rapid progress. To find out what they would like to study that would be the most interesting, they chose physics, biology, and chemistry. At one meeting the club held a Question Bee ftaken from the Popular Science Magazinej on general biology. Another meeting was devoted to the dissection of frogs, and on another occasion they had a current events discussion. The club also studied Wonders of the Microscope, and in this study they observed pararnecium and amoeba. Other meetings being planned are: Magic in Chemistry and Thrills in Science. The club took a trip to the Franklin Institute on February 13, and was thrilled by the experiments witnessed in chemistry and physics. Later they visited with pleasure the Abbotts Dairy in Philadelphia. MEMBERS WILLIAM PEIFFER . ....,........,... ..,.... P resident IEANNE MICKLE ..........., .........,......

CLUBS SCRIBBLERS HE Scribblers' Club membership included only those seniors who were taking the seeretarialfeommercial course. Because of that requirement, the club was rather small, but it enjoyed a very successful. year under the guidance of efficient ollicers and a capable sponsor. Each scheduled meeting proved to be worthwhile. The various programs included in the club meetings comprised short sketches deseribf ing oflice proeedureg numerous speakers relating some responsibilities of secretariesg a shorthand spelling beeg a morning of games and singing: and moving pictures dealing with shorthand. The shorthand spelling bee proved exceptionally interesting, and was enjoyed by all who participated. The one purpose of this club is to give the secretarial-commercial seniors a more vivid concept of the business world. That it is achieving this purpose seems evident. It is also of real value as a socializing agency- fand a democracy needs plenty of such agencies. Pencils ready? Begin! 4,4 n-u...,,,.a . MEMBERS VIRGINIA Barns ,..,.... ...............

Much of the time was spent in learning more about old and new stamps, special issues and famous philatelists. Often the students, and sometimes a speaker, reported on these. Once in a while tests on knowledge of stamps were given by the more advanced students. Trading among the students was frequently carried on. This year, for the Hrst time, the association of South Jersey Stamp Clubs permitted high school groups to enter exhibits in their contest. Our club participated, and won the Third Prize of the high school group. Their annual activities included a dance, an exhibition of collections Qopen to all studentsj, placing of a book or catalogue about stamps in the library, and subscribing to two magazines. Although a recreational club, members greatly expanded their knowledge of his' tory, geography, and biography because of their interest in stamps. Following F. D.

The aim of this non-secret, nonfsocial organization is to create a spirit of active and intellif gent interest in dramatics among boys and girls in secondary schools. The out- standing work of the Thespians during 193940 was the presentation of a harlequinade entitled A Merry Death by Nicholas Evrenov. This Russian farce was entered in the University of Pennsylvania's Cultural Olympics. The onefact tragedy The Valiant won third place. Each year the initiates of this honor organization take their solemn pledge before the faculty and student body of the high school.

At Thanksgiving we filled a basket and sent it to a deserving family. Later we sold tickets for a skating party and movie benefit, to bolster up a treasury consisting only of money from dues. Each year contributions are sent to Caney Creek, Kenf tucky, and in reciprocation the Caney Creek Crusaders visited our school to present an excellent auditorium program. Our Christmas party was highly enjoyable. Miss Barber, our guest, told us of the picturesque festivities of a Polish Christmas Qbefore the German absorptionlj. After other entertainment, refreshments were served. Usually the club goes to Camp Ockanicon for a weekfend, but this year we plan to spend this holiday at Ocean City. Since the boys of HifY graciously permitted us to use their room for our weekly meetings, we made them some new curtains, trying to select a pattern that would appeal to masculine tastes. The TrifY is proud to recall that five of its members are also members of the National Honor Society. MEMBERS JULIA HURLEY. ........ .............,...,..

The orchestra lent its services willingly to both the junior and senior plays, P.fT. A. meetings, school assemblies, and other programs. At the Music Festival, held on May 17, the orchestra had a prominent part and worked wholefheartedly for the success of the festival. Many selections were played, and the orchestra also accompanied the singers in the Hallelujah Chorus. During the year, the stringed instruments of the orchestra presented exchange programs, going to Glasshoro, Paulsboro, and Pitman. These schools also visited Woodhury.

The girls played at all fall season it appeared at every football game, with its colorful marching maneuvers and formations, and topped the season off with new uniforms. A tag day served the purpose of raising money for the uniforms. Receipts were very gratifying, and the band was greatly aided by its acquisition of additional equipment. Membership has increased from 25 to 48. For the first time in a number of years, the band entered into successful competition again by going to Vineland and Bridgeton. One of the many things done this year was making band an accredited subject. Two periods a week were spent by the members for rehearsing. On March 29, the band held its Hrst performance as a concert group. The event was a huge success. We hope that it will become an annual affair.

The girls played at all the football games, and received praise for their formation and drilling. Under the direction of Mr. Byerly, they participated in the Bridgeton Parade in October of 1939. After two hours of parading through the streets, the final drill form- ation was presented before the judges. Each girl put her heart and soul into the work. The corps came happily home with the third prize, a gold lovingfcup. The group has been in existence only two years. During this short time- the girls have added great spirit to the school activities. The opening of the new Wood Theatre was celebrated by a parade of the Bugle and Drum Corps through the streets of Woodbury.

At Christmas, the auditorium was darkened as these skillful vocalists, garlwed in hlack skirts and caps and white hlouses, proceeded with flickering candles down the aisles. They formed a semifcircle around the hright Christmas tree, where yuletide carols were sung to radiate the spirit of the season. The chorus s onsored several auditorium ro rrams, and took art in the annual music festival. Memhers were proud to admit their mastery or Haendel s Hallelujah Chorus, a very taxing hut inspiring composition.

They float on wings of song. jU IOR CHORUS EARLY everyone seems to have a keen interest in music, the so-called universal language. To satisfy the freshmen in Woodhury High School, Miss Klepfer estahlished the junior Chorus several seasons ago-an organization of proven worth. The hoys and girls in the chorus sang for the junior High. They en ioyed singing, and realized the value of the experience they received from mernhership in a chorus like this one, A good chorus requires of its memhers many qualities that will aid them in later life. Chief among these are an innate sense of rnuiic, a willingness to work, cooperation, good posture, and a positive personality. The hoys and girls also received heneiit from a social standpoint, hy meeting every week with their schoolmates and having an interesting and worthwhile time through practicing. These occasions formed a welcome hreak in the routine of schoolwork.

In the United States, for example, vve have a wealth of native Indian tunes that vividly portray the lives and emotions of their race. Then there are the cowboy songs of the old West, and the plaintive strains of Southern mountaineer music. But perhaps most distinctive of all are the Negro spirituals, in which all of the religious fervor and racial hard' ships ind reflection. Miss Klepfer is to be commended for assembling a group of very musical Negro students to continue the vocal tradition of their forefathers. These boys and girls meet at regular intervals for practice, and are rapidly becoming prolicient in the art of ensemble singing. Especially do they excel in their unerring scnse of rhythm. MEMBERS .

During the year members met once a week inthe Gloucester County Y. M. C. A. building under the direction of Roy Clement, their leader. These meetingg were usually climaxed by refreshments. 1 Composed chiefly of athletic stars, the group took part in the school district league basketball games and in other sports events. Another activity which the boys took pride in was their annual HifY Barn Dance, which was held in the autumn when the corn stalks and hay were plentiful in the helds. They believed the hay and stalks were theirs and didn't bother asking for them. This energetic group made several excursions to Camp Ockaniekon. One of these trips was called a Coed, when the lovers of the crowd strutted about the camp with their ladyffriends. MEMBERS JACK HAMLEN ,....... ........

If you are, and have received a for your trouble, then don't read any further. However, if you do your playing from the stands, a short description of the Wciodbury High School Girls' Varsity Club and its activities may be of interest to you. The club is composed of those girls who have received their letters for participaf tion in major athletics. Members held a very successful pie and cake sale on April 20, which was a great deal of fun as well as being profitable. Since all the athletic equipment was customarily piled in the physical education oihce, the Girls' Varsity Club financed the construction of an equipment closet in which the hockey sticks, hockey balls, sneakers, tennis raccluets, uniforms, and other necessities may be stored. Incidentally, the Varsity Club provides an opportunity for the girls to compare ideas and to work together, which promotes friendliness, companionship, and sports' manship.

The members of this group gained experience by helping Miss Sellers, the school librarian, to keep the library in order and the books free from annoying pencil marks. At the beginning of the school year, the organization compiled and distributed a booklet listing the favorite books of the Woodbury High School teachers when they attended high school. Most of these listings were bona fide ones! During the course of the year, the club participated in book contests, quizzes, puzzles, and games that were concerned with books and with the techniques and services of libraries. Members also made scrapbooks. These books, which included crossfword puzzles and short stories, were distributed by the Junior Red Cross among children's hospitals, where they were greatly appreciated. The continuance of a democracy is predicated on an enlightened citizenry. Of such, these girls will form a part. MEMBERS MARGARET MAYEs ..................,...........

Following the selection, by the staff, of Democracy as a potent and timely theme about which both art and text might be woven, Mr. Faust kindly consented to pref side over a series of discussions of this topic during the autumn. months. Written reports, based on outside reading, were required of staff members, and the end- product of the whole project was a clarification of democratic ideals and processes that aided greatly in the actual work on the book. As for several years previously, Miss Wallace supervised the striking art con- tributions. Literary members again had the benefit of Mr. Barrell's experience in the publishing field to guide them in producing lucid and interesting copy, while Miss Hyde continued to attend ably to all matters financial. A subscription drive during February and March served to boost SUN DIAL sales to the highest point reached in a decade of existence. PETER KAISER ............................

Getting on with CSS THE ADVENTURES OF I-IORACE AND I-IORATIO I-II-SCHOOL RIGHT and EARLY one MAY morning, Horace HifSchool jumped from his bed to greet the sun shining across the REDFIELD. It was EXLEY half past seven, and he had to hurry to get to school on time. After eating a DELL pickle for breakfast he started out. On his way he METZ lots of FOULK, and put his HAND' FORTH in greeting. It was a beautiful dayg the grass looked like a GREENE carpet, just like Horace had read about in a STORY. When passing his friend's house, he decided to wait for him, and called, Horatio, KENYON come out? HASSAN or you'll be late. Finally he appeared, exclaiming, Isn't it a KEAN day? Let's HYDE until it's too late to go to school. Horace gave it a little thought, but when he saw all the other PARSONS passing them, he answered, Oh, no, we'd better go. Besides, WILSON be there. Horatio STEELE didn't like the idea, but he agreed, since they were already in DE HART of the town. Perhaps we'd better quit SAUNDERLIN along then, or we'll be LAYTON have to stay after school, he concluded. just then a car passed rather close, and Horace shouted, HOLT still or you'll be HOYT!! My GOSS, I'll have to put a LEISCH around your neck. Horatio was rather abashed and finally stuttered out, Gee, Horace, I didn't see that car--TRANK you very much for warning me. The day in school went by without much happening, and the two boys met outside the front gate. Horace said, I'm hungry, 1et's go get a HAMPTON cheese sandwich. Horatio agreed, so they started off. They saw Hector across the street and called, WILLIAMS like to come along with us? Hector didn't hear, so Horace yelled, Hey! we do MENAH you. This aroused him, but he was unable to go along because he had to go home and practice MHARTZELL Flowers on his violin. When the boys arrived at their destination, they ordered their sandwiches toasted and well DUNHAM. Their bill was actually rather SOHMOLL, but they thought the PRICE of the food expensive. They had just about enough money left to go to the tennis matches on the other side of town, providing they didn't have to pay care fare, thus, in half an hour they were chugging away in a borrowed car. I wish I had a CUSHING for this TINNEY contraption, grumbled Horatio. Next year I'm going to buy a car like Hector's. They're RICHARDSON you are, though, Horace jibbed. After some time they were seated in the GRAHAM stands watching the game, between a pretty young LEIDY and a LONG, lanky man. There were delays in the game because the balls LANDAU in the FIELDS most of the time. The boys yelled, HRACHOR our side vigorously, and the game went along quickly. Before they knew it, however, the sky became GRAY, a slight WINN arose, and it started to rain. The match was called off, much to Horace's disappointment. Oh SHOUGH, he complained, NI thought they'd play RAYMER shine. They started to the car, but got fairly wet before they found the place they had to PARKE R. Feeling rather uncomfortable they went to Horatio's house and finally fell into a deep SCHOMBER, one boy in the HANNOOK, and the other on the DAVENPORT. Upon the arrival of Horatio's ANTON uncle One Hundred One W for dinner, however, his mother sent him on an ERHMAN to the BUTCHER. Horace accompanied him, and on the way home they stopped in an arcadia to play the' SCHLOTTER machines, and place BETTS on the mechanical horses. Horatio's mother was astonished when she heard what they had clone. You know BEVERLY than that, when I tell you to HARRISON. I was waiting for this package to hurry the meal, and now the ice cream is MILTON fast. The boys expressed their SARLO, and departed to wash their HAINES. After the meal was over, Horace told Horatio's mother how much he liked the food. HGREELY and truly, the DEHNER was DEVINE. The potatoes were nice and BROWN, and I like the way you MACK ice cream, he said in his best manner. Horatio's mother told him he was perfectly welcome to have MOORE, just as all nice mothers do. The aunt said she really must be getting on home, so the boys TUCKER home in their car. On returning they passed a movie house, with the new picture WEATHERBY or Not to Be showing at that time. HHECHT, Horace, I'd hate to miss that, said Horatio. Let's HURLEY up and tell your parents not to wait up 'for you, and then we'll have a CHANCE to make the next show. Horace agreed that it certainly would be WERT it, so they rushed on to Horace's house. He dashed in, delivered his message, and finally found himself and Horatio seated in the cinema. The picture ended when the heroine took her life by breathing gas HULMES, and the hero wept in his BEARD for many DAVIES. The boys both thought the picture wonderful, and MORELAND they expected. They commented on the COY STRANGER, who turned out to be a KERR, on the way home, and agreed that he had a most JAGGARD and HARRIS look. When Horatio spotted a new soda shop, he was very surprised, and changed the subject. CANBY true?-a new place! Let's go in. The sign advertises a KOCHERSPERGER made out of kocoa, and MALTMAN milks. Thus they walked in and tried a few burgers and milks. Upon inquiry, Horace said, Yes SEHER, they certainly are good. The boys then agreed to go home to bed, as it was rather late. Horatio drove Horace home, only to hear him announce, I forgot MCGEE to the front door. Help me wake my parents. DU BOIS threw stones at the windows for what seemed a couple of hours, but met with no success. They must be made of HARWOOD, Horace said. Guess you'd better come home with me, as there JUSTICE not anything else you can do, unless you start BATTEN the door down. Horace told him he was very generous and the two boys retired. Good KNIFE, said Horace. Good KNIPE, was his reply. Thus ends a punny story. One Hundred Two r . ' .., . ' 'Y ,:,-..,. M , - 1 A ' ', . -KJ ARQT, Q fry .

COACHINC STAFF WQODBURY'S coaching staff faithfully lived up togits enviable reputation of former years. 5 A With her everpresent spirit of persistence, Miss Taylor put her girls through their paces. Her constant and efficient work, day after day, made it possible for them to hold down third place in the hockey league, to win thlibugh the basketball season in championship position, and to finish the spring season,with the tennis team's ref ceiving the championship of the South jersey League. 5 Her able assistant, Miss Hilbert, was always on the job, and to her is due plenty of credit. ,fi Perseverance also characterizes Coach Sterner and!Mr. Keebler. They drilled the football boys from'I3 to 6 P. M. every day for threefmonths to make The Herd successful, while Mr. llen's labors started the freshmen on their way toward varsity positions on the gridir n. The '39 baseball team came out on top, again proving Mr. Sterner's excellent lead rship and coaching ability. J Cap Paine encduraged and helped the basketball team to a fairly successful season, and again Mr. Allen showed his ability with freshmen on the basketball court. The tennis team was under the guidance of Mr. Olsonf who coached the team so well that they had a very satisfactory season, taking second place in the South jersey League. ' - I Mr. Deist spent most of his afternoons during the spring season training the trackmen to a fine degree of perfection. They were champions of Group Three. Mr. Milton also gave much of his leisure time to instructing the cheerleaders in cooperation, precision, exact coordination, and the ability to infuse the crowd with enthusiasm. One H111 zdrvd Three Q. FCCTBALL THE 1939 football season dawned with only tive lettermen from the 1938 champion' ship squad back in the fold. Practice started on September 1 as usual, but in a few days it had to be postponedg the schools were closed because of infantile paralysis. With very little time in which to do the necessary things to get the squad in shape, Coach Sterner put a team on the field to whip a strong Merchantville team by a score of 24 to O. With the first game under their belt, the herd traveled to Pitman to beat a powerful panther team by a score of 20 to O. After the twofgame winning streak, the third game ended with a large and mighty Camden team setting back the small but plucky Woodbury eleven. This same plucky Woodbury eleven, still smarting from their licking from Camden, then came back and defeated the Audubon green wave by a 20 to O score. In the next conf test a scrappy Haddon Heights club turned the tables on the Herd with a 13 to 0 setback. With the defeat of the last game still on their minds, the herdsters defeated ll favored Classboro team by a 7 to O score. The next three contests were all horrible nightmares. Haddonheld handed thi: local lads a 14f3 setback. Paulsboro, our traditional rival, managed to eke out a 12 to 0 victory, and when Turkey Day thriller came, Collingswood almost got set back, but their weight and power finally gave them a 14fO victory.

Although the girls played a good game, they could not score or hold the Colls scoreless. Marie Schultes made the lone goal for Woodbury. Audubon also proved too much for the Taylormaids. This was the girls' second attempt for a place in the league. At the end of the first half the score was tie, but the girls were unable to hold back the fighting spirit of Audubon, as Dot Hampton tallied the two goals for the home team. Bridgeton fell before the deter' mined Taylormaids by the score of 8 to 1, as Dot Hampton, Fran' ces Dolan and Marie Schultes each scored two goals apiece. Irene Schultes and Clara Allen made one apiece. This was one of the largest scores of the season. ' Next the Paulsboro eleven held the girls scoreless. The girls had used up all of their energy the week before and could not get started. Merchantville fell by a large score with D H , ot ampton again the star as she d h score t ree of the six goals, while Clara Allen scored two, and Marie Schultes one. Haddon Heights struggling to win came out with t' M , , a ie. arie Schultes again saved Woodbury from being held scoreless. The girls made up for this by defeating Haddonfield 4f2. Miss Allen scored three of the four goals and Marie Schultes scored one. The last game of the season was with Gloucester. The girls withstood snow and a very muddy field to come through with a lfO victory. The nonfleague games with Hammonton and Glassboro were won by Woodbury. Dot Hampton led the attack with three goals in the Glassboro game, while Clara Allen and Irene Schultes made two apiece in the Hammonton game. The Lassies finished the season in third place, in tie with Haddonfield. Although not a green squad, the girls strived together .. h Ior t ree years, but could not quite create a championship team.

I-IGCKEY PLAYERS Woodbury High School: Marie Schultes, Clara Allen, CofCaptainsg Dot Hampton. Adelaide Anton, Kathryn Fowler, Alice Smoot, Barbara Blensinger, Sue Menah, and Ruth Gray. The underclassmen also deserve no end of credit. The most outstanding are Frances Dolan, Irene Schultes and Mary Wilkinson. Some substitutes who are promising varsity material are Marie Putiri, Betty Neider, forwards, Ruth Robinson and Elizabeth Donahue, defense. Betty Jane Elliott proved to be a very efficient manager. Frances Dolan was elected captain of next year's hockey team. As the hockey season closes with the freshman hockey team undefeated, Miss Taylor looks forward to another championship. With this prospect in mind, the question of Abolishment of Girls Sports in South Jersey was brought before the public eye. From the school girl's point of view, these not only develop athletic ability, but good sports' menship as well. Interscholastic sports not only bring zest and interest to a game: they also establish friendly relations between students of all schools. One Hund: ed Seven Om' llmnlrrd Iiigllf BUYS' BASKETBALL UNDER the guidance of Mr. Paine, better known to players and fans alike as Cap, the 193940 schedule contained the names of many high school court teams to be conjured with as no easy foes, but the White and Gold teams have always been known for their high standard of playing ability. Cap, a former star of Ursinus, is a keen student of the game and possesses that personality necessary to secure the greatest amount of efficiency from his charges and to imbue them with the proper spirit of play. The White and Gold 1939-40 basketball team was not a sensational team, but it was one that played consistent and steady ball throughout the year, giving all opponents ll run for their money. The season opened with Paulsboro playing host to Woodbury, This game proved to be a thriller with the White and Gold winning, 19f17, in an extra period. In the second game of the season the quintet defeated the Alumni. The next game, with Collingswood, found the White and Gold on the other end of the score, losing Z6-25. Then for the second consecutive year Woodbury fell prey to Vineland. Cap Paine's subsequent shake-up of the team resulted in a win over Haddonheld. The quintet was next handed a 2821 jolt by the Audubon Green Wave, and Camden proceeded to trim the White and Gold 27f41. Speedy Baker's Haddon Heights team scored another win over the boys. Fast and sensational shooting by the entire team next marked a runfaway victory over Pleasantville. On the home court 4 .44 Top row: Thoma, Devine, Seid- ers, Thompson, Kaiser, Jenkins, Jacobs.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL OR many years the hoards of the Vsfoodhury High School gymnasium have heen pounded hy the feet of the girls' haskethall teams of Wtitidhury and its rivals, hut fate has not as yet presented us with a complete championship six. Coach Bess Taylor gave the team the henelit of her wide athletic experience, and it's common gossip in sport circles that much has heen wrung from teams not touched hy the wand of greatness. In 1939 the top was nearly reached, and Coach Taylor will tell you with a thoughtful look in her eye that a score of 1924 in the playfoff prevented the Vxfoodhury girls from gaining the top rung of the ladder. Only one steady varsity player was left to the elass of 1941, since the team was composed of live seniors. Against Gloucester, the lirst opponent, Coach Taylor put on the floor a team with machineflike team work, Vxfoodhury nosed them out with a score of 2623. Next they played the old folks, or the Alumni, and won to the tune of 47f17. The next encounter was with Hammonton, who was downed with a 2949 score. They administered two thick coats of shellae upon Haddon Heights, first, 3113, and on Fehruary 7, 34f17. The red and white eagers from Paulshoro left with a 44120 loss to Wtutidhury. The team then played host to Bridgeton, who lost with a 3404 tally. The Glasshoro game was sad Y-for Glasshorof-fsince Wticidhury won, 51110, The girls next pulled the wool over Auduhon's eyes with a 21116 victory.

Collingswood came with full force, hut had their ears pinned hack with a l9f19 victory for Wtitidlwury. We next defeated Haddonfield with a score of 2901. The Vineland team came with high aspirations, hut left without them after a score of 3829. VVoodhury's girls had new gold eolored uniforms for this game. Well, all good things must come to an end, and the end of our nonfdefeated record came in the form of Collingswood. Many tears were restrained, tho' the score totaled 3944 in favor of the opposition. The team redeemed itself temporarily when they entertained Haddonheld to a defeat. Sinee the Colls lost hut one league game, and that was to Wcmcidlwury ind VV dh , z oo ury lost hut one game to Collingswood we were entitled to a playfoff which was held it th . , , 4 e new Lindenwold High School. But fate was definitely against us, for our girls left with a defeat of 3743. This is the sec' ond consecutive year in which VVoodhury has run neckfandfneck with the Colls. Perf haps next year we shall gain the championship to which we have eome so close for two years. Let us hope that the groundwork laid hy the 1940 team, and the willftofwin of the coach and players, will enahle us to create an actual championship team soon. GIRLS' BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Vw'.H.S.

Daniminger, Smith, Shxsler, Dam minger, De Girolamo, W Kean, Danheld THE 1939 season of baseball brought the Group Three Championship Lto Woodbury High School. E Six lettermen were back from the previous year. The veteran infielders were captain Lou Damminger, Bill Kean, Bruce Danfield, and Bill Florsheim, outfielders, Malcolm Dawson and Ockie Damminger. Ed Clunn and Bill Florsheim won the All-state, for their intensive support during the entire season. Ed Clunn was the most outstanding pitcher of the season, with Duck Baptiste bringing in the most runs. Walt Kean had the job of relief hurlerf' There were many baseball lettermeng among them were Mick Devine, Ed Miller, Landi De Girolamo and Tom Sarlo. The opening game was a great victory over Vineland, as is evident by the scorc, ten to five. The next game, with Millville, proved to be a harder battle, since our team won by only one point. Success 'was following us, and we next scored nine to five over Merchantville. In our game with Haddon Heights the keen interest and excitement of the spectators were apparent. The tally of this tilt was eight tto one, in our favor. Then against a very strong opposing team made up of Glassboro's best, we again found ourselves on the top with the final decision of eight to nothing. Games that followed also resulted in winning scores. Especially did we feel elated when we outpointed the Collingswood team. Although they may be our superior in football, we proudly proved that we can more than hold our own on the diamond. ' SCHEDULE W. H. S.

The mainstay of the team throughout the year was Captain Johnny Jones, who excelled in high jumping, 220 and 100 yard dashes, as well as low hurdles and the mile relay. Bruce Sharp proved to he a great asset in pole vaulting, but he broadfjumped, ran the 440 in the mile relay, and highfjumped as well. jim Baptiste was a dash man and broadfjumperg Roscoe Browne was an exceptional quarter-mile runner, and Tom Fortson took care of the 440 runs. Ed McCuinness, hacked by Elwood Shropshire and Henry MacEwan, captured most of the weights. Bill Beck ran the hurdles, while Walt Chew did the halffmile. It was unfortunate that the spring epidemic caused our team to be barred from the County and State Championship meets, for we are sure that the fellows would have made a good showing.

The Woodbury High School tennis team of last year won three games out of five in the Camden Suburban Tennis League. The boys played their best throughout the season. Their first game was a complete victory over Pitman, but unfortunately they had tough competition from Bridgeton in the following game and were defeated. The rest of the games, aside from the one with Paulsboro, were won with honors. The team was managed by jim Boakes and captained by Earl Rowland. The singles teams consisted of Earl Rowland, Francis jackson, Dave Allen, and Bob Wilkinson. Those who played doubles were George Paju, Warren Neubert, Ferd Thoma, and Pierson Hannock. Coach Olson, assisted by Mr. Yorks, encouraged the players during depressing moments. ' Less than half of the fellows of the '39 team were back this year. Perhaps they have found a better racket!

Who were the main sources of this quality? Why, of course, it was our Woodbury High School cheerleaders, who faithfully attended each game, worked hard, and supplied for us the gay, alive spirit prevalent on each occasion. Leading the squad this year was Ginny Cushing, the girl with an everpresent sunny disposition, who did a splendid job of making her group a success. Bob Mills, through his fighting spirit, certainly made the rooters shout, he also provided many thrills when he took his breathftaking nflipfoversf' If anyone had an undeniable influence on the student body again this year, it was Betty Hartzell with her grace and poise. She did her part in making the squad successful. Talk about cute and alert boys-well, for the fourth year, we had Davey Allan holding the spotlight with his enthusiasm and exuberant energy. A newfcomer to the squad was pretty Doris Steward, the oomph cheerleader, who wholefheartedly pitched in and helped make this squad one of our best. Last but not least, there was another newfcomer, Claude Grant. Through hard work and cooperation, he made out splendidly in his new undertaking. All in all, they made up a fine group, and they certainly deserved the gold megaphones which were awarded to them at the cnd of the year as a token of W. H. S.'s appreciation of their endeavors.
