The class organized early in the yearwith the following slate of officers: President,Stephen Morris; Vice-President, Richard Stoot-hoff; Secretary, Carol Beer; Treasurer, LloydReynolds; Business Manager, Jack Lemon; andAssistant Business Manager, Jack Lewis.

Mrs. Ruth King was chosen adviser, and itwas under her guidance that the class present-ed the very successful comedy "What A Life"and later held the colorful Sophomore Cotillion.

The Student Council has worked throughout the school year to accomplishmany things which would benefit our school. Projects of all sorts were intro-duced, discussed, adopted, or discarded.

In November, ten members of our Council journeyed to Princeton Uni-versity to attend the 24th Annual Conference of the New Jersey Association ofHigh School Councils. Here, panel and group discussions were held. WilliamGraham acted as chairman of one of these discussions, while Clyde Lindnerwas elected, by representations of all the assembled schools, to serve on thestate board as an executive member.

According to tradition, the Student Council purchased and decorated ahuge Christmas tree which was placed in the upper hall in front of the office.Clothing was collected and sent to a needy family in Kentucky. In return, meCouncil received Christmas greens with which to decorate the office and thelibrary.

A main project was the compiling and publishing of a Student Handbook.Its purpose is to acguaint new students with certain facts concerning ourschool, information relating to the facutly, curriculum, organizations andschool rules.

Special assembly programs were sponsored by the Council during theyear, and through the action of the Council, permission was granted to havedancing in the Gym after each home basketball game.

The establishment of an Honor Roll was an imporant accomplishment. Amore satisfactory traffic plan was instituted, and a patrol committee wasorganized.

Officers for the year 1949-1950 were President, Philip Baumarin; Vice-President, Pat Bennett; Treasurer, William Graham; Recording Secretary, JeanOsborn; and Corresponding Secretary, Clyde Lindner. Miss Ruth LaWall actedas adviser to the group.

FOOTBALL

More eagerly awaited than the summons of the school bell is the returnof the football season. The clang of the bucking machine and the thud ofshoulder pad against leather helmet is a familiar sound at the athletic fieldeach year as the Red Bank High Buccaneers prepare for another footballseason.

This fall in their opening game, the Bucs proved again that the favoriteis not always the winner as they defeated the powerful Princeton aggregation8-0 on the home field. The following week they invaded Manasquan only tobe sent home in defeat on the short end of an 18-9 spanking. For their thirdgame the Bucs entertained a highly-touted Rumson High squad, which, havingbeen keyed for the game, managed to hold the Bankers to a 0-0 tie. Leonardo,last year's conference champions, was next on the schedule, bringing up oneof the most exciting and hectic games of the year. Red Bank jumped off to a10-0 lead at half time. However, the Lions came roaring back to win the gamein the final minutes 11-10. In the meeting between Red Bank and Red BankCatholic, the Bucs marched up and down the field at will for three touchdownsto defeat their out-classed inter-borough rivals 19-0. The Blue Bishops of As-busy Park penetrated Red Bank soil next. Obvious at the start was the powervested in the Bishop squad; yet more obvious was the fact that Red Bank's linehad become practically impenetrable as it turned back attack after atack. TheBishop finally pushed over two tallies in the second half to overcome thestubborn Bucs 12-7. Neptune's high flying Fliers were next. They, too, soonfelt the wrath of Red Bank's bitter defeat the week before and had to settle fora 6-2 victory. Red Bank's Turkey Day rivals proved to be the toughest opposi-tion of the season; and even though the Bucs jumped off to a 7-0 lead in theinitial canto, the Branchers came back in a flurry of aerial magic to crush theBankers 19-7.

Hats off to the scrappy warriors of 1949!

One of the best team to emerge from Red Bank High in many years, theBuc basketeers of the 1949-1950 season, tutored by coach Frank Pingitore, re-captured the long-missed Shore Conference laurels. To gain the conferencehonors, the Bucs had to play in the play-offs at Convention Hall the highly -touted Neptune squad, which Red Bank had nipped by one-point in the regu-lar season game. A repeat performance in another thriller brought the trophyhome to Red Bank.

Red Bank started the season shakily, with wins over Manasquan and LongBranch in the Round Robin Tournament at Asbury Park, but dropped the deci-sive game to Asbury. The Bucs then upset the defending Shore Conferencechamps, Neptune, in the opening game of the regular season. One of themost exciting games to be played in the conference this year was capturedprimarily because of the outstanding performance of Pete Foster, lanky Bucforward, who garnered thirty points for himself and his team.

From here the Bucs piled up a winning streak of seventeen games, whichincluded nip and tuck battles with Hoffman, Manasquan, and Freehold. RedBank defeated the other conference schools, Toms River, Matawan, Lakewood,Keyport, Atlantic Highlands, Rumson, Point Pleasant, and Leonardo, in easyfashion. Two wins over a hapless Long Branch were among the Buc victories.Included in the streak also was a thrilling game with Red Bank Catholic, whowas eventually to halt Red Bank two games later.

The Shore Conference play-offs found Red Bank piled against Manasquanand Neptune playing Hoffman. As was expected, Red Bank and Neptuneentered the finals; but surprisingly, Red Bank again trounced Neptune andwon the play-offs as well as the regular season championship. Once more itwas the brilliant work of Pete Foster which measured the difference betweenvictory and defeat.

It was then, riding on a crest of seventeen victories and two champion-ships, that Red Bank was upset by a highly inspired Red Bank Catholicfive, who also had had a wonderful season.

Red Bank, entering the state tournament, quickly vanquished a mildLeonardo quintet and then upset highly favored Highland Park. This left theCentral State Group II Championship finals open to both Red Bank andNeptune. However, this time it was Neptune who finally conquered a wearyBuc squad.

Although Pete Foster was the individual standout during the season, hehad some marvellous help from Charlie Patterson's set shots, Pete Reevesdribbling, Russ Booth's domination of the back board and Tommy Gamba-corta's defense work. Always ready to come in and relieve the the regularswere Charlie Woodward, Charles Bruno, Arthur White, Nessan Demmerle,William Smith, Winston Davis, and Roger Severin.

In the early spring Mrs.Smith organized a girls' base-ball team. This proved to be theonly sport of the year in whichthe girls were not required tomaster skills. Mixed teamswere formed immediately, andthe various groups sweated itout in a series of after-schoolcontests. Plans for a game withLeonardo may provide an addi-tional thrill for the 1950 season.

BASKETBALLThe senior girls basketball

team, under the leadership ofIngrid Davenport was organizedin early December. Duringpractice sessions, the girls weredrilled on the many differentskills, and special plays for for-wards were perfected. Unfortun-ately, not many practices wereheld before the competition withother schools started. During theseason the girls played Key-port, Leonardo, Runson, As-bury, and Long Branch.

One day in the early fall thegymnasium was teeming withgirls; it was the first day ofhockey practice. At first theplayers were instructed in thevarious skills, such as dribblingand long shots. During latermeetings after a period of rou-tine practice, teams were or-ganized to play one another.Mrs. Smith tried very hard toproduce champions but on thetenth of November when RedBank played the Rumson girls,the Bankers were defeated 2-0.

Coach Tom Phipps had only six re-turning lettermen upon which to buildthis year's squad. These six, however,have fulfilled the promise that theyshowed last year. Mike Basso startedat first base with Phil Baumann play-ing second; Charlie Bruno, third; andTom Romard, catching. Alvin Griggspatrolled the centerfield lot, while PeteFoster buzzed them across the platewith the same accuracy that he ex-hibited during basketball season.

Others on the squad are Tom Cook,Jack Lewis, Dick Keating, Tom Gam-bacorte, Dominick Gambacorte, JohnOverton, John Lewis, Donald Hernan-dez, John Valentine, Bob Osborn, Ar-thur White, Carl Haviland, HaroldNewton, Donald Markham.

The high hopes coaches VincentPaladino and Louis Jacobs had pinnedon this year's track were amply justi-fied by the season's record. With sev-eral returning lettermen and manypromising candidates, the squad im-proved as the season went along.

Charles Woodward was exceptionalin the high hurdles, as were Sam Cam-eron and Stanley Mayerson in the dis-tances. Al Spenney came through wellin the 440. Dave Dillon, a big assetin the weight field with his discusand javelin throwing, received credit-able help from Dick Seidenzahl in theshot. Joe Tomaino and Pete Van Keu-ren excelled in the pole vault and highjump respectively.

Other members of the squad wereBob Jeffrey, Edward De Vaux, PeteReeves, Winston Davis, Charles Mey-ers, Andy Larabee, Russel Glover, El-bert Griggs, Howard Thornton, EdHughs, Nate Alexander, Fred Di Maio,Dick Rigby, Victor Bradley, Jay Valent,Arnold Baum, Bill Sherwood, WesleyReevey, JoeCannavo, Anthony D'Marc-antonio, Sonny Thornton, RichardDrake, Tom Pingatore, Bill Spratley,and Nessan Demerle.
