CRANFORD,

NEW JERSEY

FOREWORD

One hundred years ago men sought gold to enrich their lives.Today, our prospectors are looking for something more precious thangold; they are digging for peace. To reach this end, they are pan-ning their ideas and sifting away strife.

In 1849 people travelled in covered wagons, on horseback, byboat, and even on foot. Their journey was long and tedious, andsome were not rewarded. There is only one road to peace. It islong, and much of it has not been blazed. The reward at the endis beyond appraisal, but it can be reached only through understand-ing.

Therefore, we, the members of the graduating class, will lendall our resources to the building of the road to peace. Where ourancestors used picks and shovels to reach their gold, we shall useintelligence and cooperation.

The world will strike it rich!

DEDICATION

RAY A. CLEMENT"Steve"

"His ready speech flowed fairand free,

In phrase of gentlest courtesy."Pet Expression. "Forsan ethaec olim meminisse iuvabit. "

(In the future it will be apleasure to remember thesethings.)

Hobby: Telling jokes onClass Night.Activity: Principal of Cran-ford High School.

"Good morning! These are the announce-ments." This greeting is familiar to anyonewho has attended Cranford High School.The man who repeats it every morning andreads the latest announcements is our Prin-cipal, Ray A. Clement. This daily saluta-tion and the conferring of diplomas areabout the only times the average pupil hasmuch contact with Mr. Clement. However,under his guidance our school has main-tained a high scholastic rating. Moreover,he is always ready and willing to help inany way possible in all extra curricularactivities.

1 Iis sincerity, honesty, and subtle senseof humor make one feel at ease in his pres-ence. He has no favorites but regards eachstudent as an individual who will be acredit to our school.

Now, after many years of service, he isretiring. It seems appropriate that he doso in 1949, for he, too, is a prospector. Hehas blazed a path for future administratorsto follow and because of his accomplish-ments he has established a living monu-ment of grateful graduates.

To Mr. Ray A. Clement the class of1949 dedicates this Golden C as a token ofits sincere gratitude.

WILMER FIELD WHITESCARVER, JR.

Buddy's kind and sincere nature whichwon him so many friends can never beforgotten, nor the time and energy he will-ingly gave in the service of our class. Dur-ing his brief life he set a fine example forus to follow, and we shall remember himalways as a classmate and a "swell fellow."

IN APPRECIATION

MISS ELLA

A sponsor has the responsibility of advising and guiding a class,thus transforming it from individual students to a united groupcapable of working together toward a common goal. The teacherwho undertakes this task must give up many hours to insure its suc-cess.

Our sponsor, Miss Ella Haver, has been not only a good advisorbut also a good friend. We sincerely hope that she will rememberus and recall the many activities we shared. We, the class of 1949,wish Miss Haver all the happiness and success which she so richlydeserves.

GO WEST YOUNG MAN, GO WEST/(and we don't mean O. L.)

We were off! The gold rush started in Sep-tember 1945. An insignificant group of dead "pans"set forth on their four year journey toward the ulti-mate goal. After the hard, hard winter at our firstattempt at the unknown (Latin, Algebra, etc.) wewelcomed the Spring with great rejoicing. Manycharacters joined in and proclaimed a "Hepcats

Holiday." We all were now under the leadershipof "Trail Blazer" Haver. Many said our valiantband would be sure to fail and would go astray butwe struggled on with the $35 we had made.

By the next year we were once again poverty-stricken so we volunteered our services to helpclean up the local burg. After having been reward-

ed generously (with a fountain pen) we left ourgleaming bridge behind us and continued forth.Because St. Patrick s Day was so close we celebratedthis gala occasion with the "Leprechauns Leap."Many of us remember the novel way those prospec-tors, Burnash and Dunn, helped by trying out theirnew-fangled contraptions. They believe somedaypeople may use cameras. (Jimmy Bamford lookedso cute as a leprechaun).

Then came the great triumph. We tried a differ-ent approach to the gold vein. We struck it richafter we had had "A Date With Judy." This newidea netted us $300. We met Miss Sarah Bern-hardt Wurth at this point. It was rumored thatHawk Smoozle, head of the local opera house,wanted her talent for an all star revue. She wasno piker though. She headed for greater stakes.We went boldly on, but after a few months we dis-covered that the vein had petered out when welearned we had made only S.07 (7c) profit thatwinter. We had fallen off the "Ski Jump" because

everyone had kept his eyes and ears on Jersey JoeWalcott who was trying to jump Joe Louis' claim.

Since we were now in sight of our destinationwe held a grand prom for those older members whowere giving up their claims. We took them all fora big boat ride complete with a band, a magician,

and live animals. After the great merry-making wasover it slowly dawned on us that we were now onour own entirely. Gone was the carefree, gayspirit of the pioneer in our struggle westward. Wehad reached our goal and had to start settling downto a more serious life.

As a celebration of the starting of this new life,we held a grand dramatic presentation. We hadour Miss Wurth and a few other top performers,(Dunn, Apgar, Brescka) that we had picked upalong the way, give a delightful interpretation of"Our Hearts Were Young and Gay."

We have been so firmly established here that nowwe are going around in international circles. We ;entertained a visitor from Norway and in November isent one of our troupe, Carolyn Burelbach, abroad jto see how the other half of the world lives. InFebruary we had a midyear celebration of our ad-vance westward, the "49ers' Dig." This was aboutthe last time we could get gold from the vein. .

Now there is still one thing we seek, even though •we have attained a certain amount of fame and !

fortune. You guessed it. We want our diplomas! ;

EXCHANGE STUDENTS

The class of '49 had the unusual opportunity ofexchanging students. This project was fostered bythe Metropolitan School Study Council and theNew York Herald Tribune.

In the winter of 1948 Anne Vogt, a Norwegiangirl, visited our school for one month. The nextautumn Carolyn Burelbach, one of our own class-mates, represented our school in Norway for sevenweeks. Again during the w'inter of 1949 lohn Wil-liams, from England, and later Christian Lange,from Norway, came to live in our community.

These visitors participated in the daily life of the

teen-agers, going to school, discussing mutual prob-lems with their new friends, explaining the ways of.government in their own countries and being takenon interesting sight seeing trips.

1 his exchange of students has done much topromote good will and understanding among theyouth of today. They have learned about thecustoms, beliefs, traditions, social systems, and formsof government of the countries in which they visited.In turn the people with whom they stayed came toknow these young people well enough to realize howmuch alike teen-agers are in every country.

Uur story begins as the four of us forty-niners,representatives of the Society for the Protection ofHlderlv Cows, entered the gates of the UnionCountv Fair.

All jbuui us were brilliant billboards, proclaim-ing the super terrific merits of the various midwayevents. One of the most astounding of these wasLulu Von Lynn and her Honolulu gitls, Joan Wal-lace, Grade Johnston, Nancy McLaughlin, andMarilyn Searle. Another act, Lackidaisical Listoand his Lazy Lions seemed to be attracting greatcrowds.

As we walked down the bustling midway, wepassed more of these exciting shows. We caughta glimpse (it the eloquent Eloise Woltz, the worldIjmous suami through an open tent Hap. Next weparsed a concession owned by Ed Kelly, in whichwe saw I urn Goodman's head actively dodgingbaseballs.

Further duwn the midway we heard a barkercalling the people to look at Joseph, the KayelossalStrong Man and his million ounce barbells. Nextto him stood Diane Xostranuno, the dinosaurtamer, whose "little pets' were trying to wind them-selves around her neck. However, our attentionwas distracted from these oddities as we noticed abrav e little nun prancing about the top of a flagpole.Greatly intrigued, we walked over to read the signunderneath, which to our surprise, s.nd "The Hagpole sitter." Our friend Fncke loudly suggestedfrom his sixtv-two foot elevation that we go to themain tent where we might meet some of our oldbuddies.

Just as we arrived at the huge arena, we sawNancy V'oll receive an award, for the best pickledpie's ears. She was lollowed onto the platform byJohn Turner who received an award for his alarmclock for late sleeping roosters.

Frank Massa and his "Milky Way Boys" includ-ing Stan Sjursen, George Guerriero and WilliamGohring struck up "Milk, Milk, for Old CranfordHigh which reminded us of the primary purposeof our visit to the fair.

We left the main tent and went to the cow show.There we lound cattle raiser, Bob McGinnis work-ing desperately over his ailing blue-ribbon Jerseys.He informed us that two pranksters, Yarrow andBrendel, had been feeding sawdust to the cows inthat area. I le suggested that we go out to PeteFairchild s farm to see if any damage had beendone there.

We immediately informed police chief BillHerzer and rushed out with him and his lieutenantEd Boone to this famous landmark. There we werejoined by cub reporter Virginia Young and photo-graphers Burnash and Bamford.

Our investigation was abruptly halted, however,as we heard above us a stentorian roar of anguish.We looked up to see surveyor Nicholson danglingby his whiskers from the telephone wires. It seemshe had lust his bearings. A goodly crowd composedof Mr. and Mrs. William Coles and family quicklyaccumulated, watching with open mouths as trapezeartist Robert Dunn swung into action with his Burton Bo\ Scout Knife. Nicholson, freed from his

hairy entanglement, lei I gracefully through thenet held by visiting firemen, I lennighan, Wilcox,and Clayton.

We followed his ambulance to the Hart-CramerHorspital, a New York establishment exclusivelyfor Cranfordites, in a cab driven by Dot Eustice,an employee of I loman's 1 axi Service. Upon stepping out of the taxi we were almost bowled intothe gutter by the passing of playboys Buck andHobbie, in their new, twelve cylinder, chrome-plated Proudmobile. We consulted the physicaltherapist, M. J. Markey, concerning our few losttoes and she advised us to see Barbara Lewis, thenoted chiropodist, who recommended that we tryher new plastic pre-fit toes.

Walking down the horspital hall, we happened tosee, through an open door, surgeon Ann BarbaraCatts and her "surgical sweeties," Baldeschwieler,Bender, and Morgan. They were clustered aboutDavid Hulse, Esq., the millionaire, untangling thekinks in his tongue as a result of his profitable pro-fession as a French linguist.

Close by him stood our old friend, the soul thrilling opera tenor, Joesepho Ogonowski. We steppedin to speak to him and got so immersed in our dis-cussion concerning the perplexing internationalproblem of retrieving aviator Paul Bartholomewfrom the moon, that we were hardly conscious ofleaving the horspital. We found ourselves ap-proaching Joe's destination, the Bates-CarusoAcademy of Music and Dance. Following himinto its murky depths, we heard Leo Johnson stillstruggling to get the right note. Clutching ourears, we moved on down the musty corridor towarda distant light. There we found Doug Strack andRichard Nielsen directing Eleanor Clifford, FredaForce, Joan Thome, Ann Houston, and MafaldaPorcella in chorus line techniques. Standing nearwas Joe Earhart, auditioning the girls for a featuredact at Liddy's Entertainment Palace.

As we regretfully turned to leave we found ourpassage blocked by the three eminent composers,Barrett, Seavy, and Yater, down on their kneesbegging us to listen to their Compound Concerto forCastenets.

Closing our eyes and leaping over their heads,we dashed into light of day, only to stumble blindlvover a double row of kindergarteners out for a walkwith their teacher, Barbara Maxwell.

Thoroughly perturbed by this time, we jumpedinto the nearest Beda Bus not caring where wewent, just as long as it was far away. To our sur-prise, the driver refused to credit our plug nickels.We were astounded until we realized he was FrankSchumacher. Because we would do anything foran old buddy, we broke down and shelled out ourplug dimes. These plugs by the way, were madeby a patented process invented by John Bilney,prominent banker.

We rolled by Mona Lee Reiman standing on astreet corner vociferously clashing two garbage-canlids together, campaigning for Colonel Glovier, acandidate for the presidency.

Hearing the scuffle of feet, we looked out of thfbus window tu sec Frevert, Forster and Allen ru

ning neck and neck with Cootie Page on his Whizzer bike.

On another corner stood Babenic and Sheralisselling ten cent pure-silk ties. High above them wecaught sight or Carolyn Bureibach, girl explorer,sliding over the Bond waterfall in a barrel.

I urning our attention to the inside of the bus,we lelt the presence of a flea circus in the vicinity.Looking around we saw our old pal Jonathan Fran;letting his pets out for their monthly airing. ThisdisturDance, combined with the reek of 1 larrietApgar's exotic perfume, Chanel No. 5, and a shrillsinging-commercial being rendered by Joan Tilledover the bus's radio, was enough to drive us off thebus.

Stepping off at Nylen's Newsstand we picked upa copy of the Fireman's Pictorial. Thumbingthrough the pages we noticed many familiar namesand faces. On the cover was the "Brescka Girl,"1 lecky Surnoski. The list of editors was headed byMaureen MJIIOV, the conscientious, hard-working,nink-blooded American girl and her stocky sidekick. Audrey Martinson.

I urning to Snyder's Society Sum-up we noticedseveral interesting items.

Miss Jeanice Lyons, noted authoress, was visitingsome of her old flames at Hartman's Flome forElderly Gents.

Ex-Toni twins, Coe and Blake had been givenmovie contracts at the Ryan-Kamin-Oram (R.K-O.)Studio.

In a mix-up concerning the beneficiary of anancient Grupe family will, the famous lawyer,William Hallord, decided in favor of Roger Grubeover Minerva Grupe.

The last item on the page was an announcementof an open house that evening at the suite ofCharles Christian in honor of Michael Buontempo,who had just been appointed supersensational, sup-ersonic, civil statistician for N.Y.C. As he livedonly about two blocks away downhill, we slippedon our roller skates and coasted down. Upon enter-ing the door we found ourselves in the middle of ano-man's land in a battle between Balsam of theBalsawood Cigar Company and Buckley of Salvaged Cigarette Butts. Dodging an ash tray weburst into a bevy of beautiful secretaries; CarolLyons, Rosie DiSpirito, Jean Thomas, MarilynWebster, Antoinette DiFabio, Joan Mente, JoanneCallanan, and Theresa Kopycinski, surroundingblushing Ronald D'Arcy, a famous sidewalk engi-neer.

All through the crowd we spotted various cele-brities chewing on pretzels and caviar. We sawSarah Fort Vaughan, famous coloraturist talkingto Ed Stickney, manager of the All-AmericanBloomer Girl's Baseball League. Bill Guerriero,president of U. S. Pharmacopoeia, was seen withMarion Jensen, star test-pilot for Dudashs Dare-

Utterly bored, we were glad to accept the offer ofMarilyn Miller, millionairess co-owner of the Mil-ler-Mack Millinery Company, to fly us to Cranford

in her new Hearn's Helicopter.A few minutes later, as we hovered for a second

over the Cranford Athletic Field we saw Thelma1 homas receiving the championship trophy of theping-pong league while her runner up, RobertWright stood sadly by.

Dropping onto the C.H.S. roof, we climbed downinto a P. I.A. meeting where we stopped to rest fora while. We were surprised to see Professor Jamie-son soothing an irate mother whom we recognizedas our childhood pal, Barbara Brand. She wascomplaining because her child had received an Aminus in Greek V. We heard history teachersByrnes and Tunner relighting the Civil War. Thenthe program began. First Lee Cobbs and BetsyBurr, gym instructors, taught a few of the more dar-ing parents the fundamentals of the modern danc-ing. Then the music instructor, Lyle Burnett, gavea beautiful rendition of "Twinkle, Twinkle, LittleStar" accompanied by Robert Morlev of the per-cussion section of the Wassmuller Philharmonic.

Lastly, Miss Nancy Brodeen, the school nurse,gave an interesting lecture entitled "The Evil In-fluence of Modern Dance Upon the Moral andPhysical Well-being of Our Children."

The meeting having adjourned, we decided totake a walk through our lovely town. It seemedmore beautiful than ever. The river was a gorgeousblue, colored by Merritt's Lavender Blue Ink, oneof fifty-six scented varieties.

1 he parks were filled with all sorts of animals.Outstanding among them were the six-foot tall char-treuse pheasants which were walking advertise-ments of Barbien's Pheasant Farm.

Walking through the center of town we noticedseveral new shops, all apparently flourishing. AtCaliendos Candy Corner we were given free, smallcokes, with whipped cream. We passed Szymanski'sSandwich Shoppe, the home of the famous pine-apple and pickle sandwich. Further on we noticedGus Swannolm and Eugene Woehr modelling inthe window of Denmans Department Store. Boththe Tarver-Johnson "Salon de Rejuvenation ' andFulkrods Pharmacy were turning away crowds ofcustomers.

Our last stop-was June's Jive Joint, the town'srecord and recreation center. Miss Steven's, theowner, had become a nationally known disc jockey.1 lere we met Warren Blakelv who offered to takeus home to our respective snacks in his recondi-tioned Model A.

Before we parted, we made plans for a futuretour through Westchester County, where we couldgaze enviously on the mansions of our old classmates, Mildred Leidy, Joan Reilly, Irene Sched-eneck. Dot Colanen, and Margaret Colanen, andall the rest of the forty-niners whose husbands hadstruck it rich in the Cranford Gold Rush.

With the closing thoughj, "Have you had yourquart today?" we bid thee farewell and also moo-moo.

The three blushing milkmaids and the lone cow-hand.

GIRLS^XTHLETIC ASSOCIATION

Under the inspiring leadership of Miss JeanVoorhees and Miss Catherine Liotta, the Girls'Athletic Association, more commonly known asthe G.A.A., enjoyed an active, interesting year.The Council, which is the foundation of the or-ganization, consists of the president, Ann BarbaraCatts; vice-president, Grace Johnston; secretary,Dorothy Rader; treasurer, Mary Elizabeth Coffee,and five members from each of the four classes.Within this structure, activities are arranged forthe club's numerous members.

Beginning the season with the annual hockeyintramural tournament, the girls suffered manybruises in order to play one of the most interestingsports. 1 he u eather did not permit the final play-offs and consequently the championship was notdetermined.

A more successful season followed, when thevolley ball net made its grand appearance. Thesenior team enjoyed a glorious victory in a closelycontested match.

Proving to be one of the most popular activities,basketball interested many G.A.A. members againthis year. A newly adopted rule in Girls' basket-

ball, allowing two bounces instead of the previousone bounce, made the game faster and more ex-citing.

The Cranford I ligh School G.A.A. was invitedto participate in the All State Hockey Tournament.Alter a preliminary playing session, Catherine Ryanand Marilyn Smid were selected to play on the AllState hockey team. Inter-scholastic playdays wereheld with Rahway, Roselle, Regional and ScotchPlains at which field hockey and basketball wereplayed in their respective seasons.

During the Christmas vacation, the annual alum-ni playday was given. A large number of graduatesattended the meeting, but because the G.A.A. wasnot sufficiently represented, the traditional playdayhas been indefinitely postponed.

The girls have participated not only in hockey,volleyball, and basketball, but also in badminton,archery, tennis and baseball. The Girls' AthleticAssociation is an organization which presents theopportunity for girls who are interested in intra-mural sports to exercise their athletic desires. It isa club whose membership is open to girls in thesenior high school, and each year the four classesare largely represented.

^CHEERLEADERS

T-E-A-M was a popularcheer heard during boththe football and basketballseasons. Hoping to cheerthe teams to victory, thecheerleading squad faith-fully followed both sports.The nine members of the1948-49 squad were:

Marilyn Searle, captain;Harriet Apgar, BeverlyL i s s e n d e n , VirginiaKiami, Susan Clement,Barbara Sudimack, MaryLib Coffee, Matilda Jura-cek and P a t r i c i a VanDuvne. • "

The C r a n f o r d HighSchool cross country teamcoached by Anthony Ter-regino had an impressiveseason last year with twowins and one setback indual meets. Frevert andForster placed 1st and 2ndrespectively in the countymeet with Cranford beingnosed out by the narrowmargin of one point byWestfield for the cham-pionship. With only oneletter man returning nextyear the team will face arebuilding problem.

CROSS COUNTRYPage 70

FOOTBALL

The Blue, and Gold of Cranford in 1948 waslight as compared to their opponents and, therefore,the squad had to use its speed as its potent factorof play. Cranfords first encounter was a strongLinden team who fought toe-to-toe with Cranfordand was heaten by a single touchdown in the firstquarter. Strong defensive play on the Blue andGold's part kept Linden from pay dirt.

Playing North Plainfield on our own gridiron,the Weekleymen staged a 0-0 tie over a favoredNorth Plainfield squad. After a series of severallosses to overpowering teams, Cranford turned back

a spunky Roselle squad 16-14 for their second winof the season. Key blocking and running of Cran-fords attack paved the way for victory.

A determined Cranford eleven pressed hard forvictory at Thomas Jefferson on the traditionalThanksgiving meeting and surprised the strong Jeffteam by drawing a 7-6 win over them.

Fourteen seniors are leaving this year, namely,Christian, Kelly, Allen, Yarrow, Kaye, Fricke, Coles,Hearns, Glovier, Denman, Nicholson, Brendel,Bartholomew and Halford.

We all want to wish the 1949 team a successfulseason.

Kaye ColesPage 11

The basketball team of 1949 was one of theshortest to be seen on a basketball court. Builtaround four returning lettermen, namely Bilney,Byrnes, Buck and Burnett, the Blue and Golddropped many a close decision due to their lack ofheight. Their uncanny ability to shoot accuratelywas said to be equal to that of the strong ThomasJefferson squad.

Fighting behind their coach, Paul Selby, theCranford cagers battled desperately to achieve asuccessful team. Although the record does notshow it, Cranford had one of the most spirited

teams in the school's long history. Credit is cer-tainly due to our Coach who fought to win despiteopposition from all sides.

The future looks brighter, for next year's squadhas height plus shooting ability equal to that of thefour B's, who all hit over one hundred points during the regular season. The team should turn inquite a creditable record. Though the seniors ofthis year had their hearts set on a good season, theyfeel extremely satisfied in knowing that only thelack of height held them back. Good luck to the1950 team.

OUTDOOR TRACK

The coming year hasmany bright aspects forour track team. The 1949men are determined to at-tain the County RelayChampionship which hasbeen missed only by nar-row margins in the past.

With emphasis on dis-tance running, the teamwill try to repeat their un-defeated dual meet seasonof 1948. With top-notchrunners like Bob Frevert,Russ Forster, Fred Allenand E u g e n e Woehr,Cranford can't miss. Goodluck!

Indoor Track, althougha fairly new sport in Cranford, has come home withnumerous trophies for itsvarious accomplishments.

This past year, thesquad successfully de-fended its Group II In-door Relay Championshipin addition to winnings i x t e e n plaques. Thesquad attended the St.Peter's C o l l e g e HighSchool meet, the State,Newark C.Y.O. and theHudson County C.Y.O.meets.

We owe our thanks toCoach Anthony Terreginowho ably produced anoutstanding team.

HOCKEY

The Cranford High Ice Hockey Team, super-

vised by Courtland J. Daley, played a six game

schedule this year. Fairly mild weather in Septem-

ber prevented the team from extending its schedule

and getting in the proper amount of practice.

The group dropped two of its encounters to the

fast moving teams of Peddie and Lawrenceville.

Cranford's pucksters, playing four of their games

at Hobey Baker Rink in Princeton, beat Nutley

and tied them once.

With this year's team made up almost entirely of

juniors, the outlook for next year is very good.

Cranford in 1948 fielded a surprise team which

developed under its coach, Paul Buonaguro. The

team was slow in starting, losing its first three

games, but finally hit their stride with an extra

inning win over Plainfield 5-4. From then on they

compiled an impressive record of five wins, seven

losses, to end the season with six wins and ten losses.

For his excellent work in handling the team,

Coach Buonaguro received honorable mention for

Coach of the Year, an honor he well deserved.

This year the team will be captained by Lyle

Burnett who succeeds Wesley Wehrenberg and

Martin Scanlon, co-captains in 1948. With a tenta-

tive eighteen game schedule for 1949, Cranford is

looking forward to a successful season.
