ADMINISTRATION
FOREWORDIn the years to come, when
our recollection of high school
days has been dimmed, we shall
look back on those pages to
remember that graduation sent
us out into a world torn by hate
and lust for power. The times
that follow will never contain
the carefree joys of these high
school days. This book, the Log,
has been compiled so that these
pleasant memories shall never be
forgotten.

MR. ERNEST L. GILLILAND
DEDICATIONTo Mr. Ernest L. Gilliland,
whose untiring efforts and good
cheer have kept us going, over all
the rough spots in this early part
of our life; and without whose
assistance this volume would never
have been completed, this book is
respectfully dedicated.

BOARD OFEDUCATION
Our Board of Education is composed of
nine elected members, to serve periods of
three years each, a district clerk, and a
supervising principal. In the hands of
this group, school legislation and pro-
grams of instruction are adopted. It
then falls into the hands of our super-
vising principal and principals of our
schools to see that the programs are
carried out. In the past, close harmony
has existed throughout the school and
we hope the same may continue to foster
the growth of our American youth.

every senior is the sincere hope and
guidance of our Supervising Prin-
cipal. It is the spirit of service
which characterizes his aim in
school. Distinguished service to the
welfare of our school and country
is his motto. This, Mr. Gilland en-
deavors to accomplish through a
close harmony among Board of Ed-
ucation, townspeople, pupils and
teachers.

MRS. MILDRED RICHTERSecretary to Mr. Sieber
Through thought and guidance
of every student's individual prob-
lems, Mr. Sieber lends a helpful,
guiding hand. With careful plan-
ning he arranges our programs to
meet individual wishes. Due to his
guidance, a new course has been
added in airplane engineering and
technique, which has proved very
attractive and of material aid to
many of our students.

BAND
42
Another successful year for the bandhas come to an end. This year "somethingnew has been added." Instead of just fivemajorettes and a drum major, there isnow a super-colossal twirling corps con-sisting of eight stepping twirlers.
Mr. Donald Klopp took over the bandin 1937 and has given Red Bank one ofthe finest organizations in the state.William Conover served as head drummajor from '38 to '40. In '41 ChesterTrubin, an ambitious sophomore, took theposition, and has become quite a twirler.He has perfected the high toss which heillustrated during many of the band'sengagements.
This year, as in former years, the .bandattended every football game. During thehalf they stepped off some unique forma-tions never before attempted on our field.Director Klopp and the band's studentleader, Edmund Crelin, instructed themembers in the execution of these
maneuvers.
ORCHESTRA
The orchestra, under the direction of Mr. A. Le RoyBaker, has added musical enjoyment to many occasionsthroughout the year.
The musical organization began by playing for theMasquers' three one-act plays. In the early part ofDecember they accepted an invitation to play for theHi-Y's yearly induction ceremony, still later they con-tributed interludes of music to both the February andthe June Commencements.
GLEE CLUBThose soft strains of music coming across the campus
are not the product of a portable radio. No, they aremerely the mixed voices of ninth grade and senior highgirls who make up the Girls' Glee club. This organiza-tion has completed another successful season under thesupervision of Mr. A. Leroy Baker. During the year,they have given two assembly programs and one springconcert, to which they charged admission.

LE CERCLE FRANCAISThe main purpose of Le Cercle Francais is to create a
greater appreciation of the French language and providean opportunity to converse in French. Membership inthe club, which meets twice a month, is limited toFrench students.
Under the supervision of Miss Leonora Hodgdon, theclub has had many interesting programs. Plays, games,songs, and a special Christmas program have made thisyear pleasant for the members of the club.
One of the projects of the club, in which classesparticipated, also, was the collection of money to aidFrench prisoners in concentration camps.
BOYS' HI-YThe Boys' Hi-Y have completed an-
other successful year under the guidance ofMr. Ben Parker, adviser; Robert Borrowes,president; Raymond Sergeant, vice-presi-dent; Edmund Sickles, secretary; and RobertTruex, treasurer. The club has sponsoredmany activities. The members attended thenatatorium for swimming parties and wererepresented by a basketball team led byRobert Howard, captain. The annual Hi-Ydance which was given at Christmas time,proved very successful. At the weeklymeetings, many guests spoke to the club onsuch topics as National Defense, local gov-ernment, and local business affairs.
At the beginning of the national emerg-ency, the club as a whole offered their serv-ices to the local defense council. The clubwas, also, represented at the National YouthCongress at Trenton on Bill of Rights Day.
GIRLS' HI-YWhat is the Girls' Senior Hi-Y? Just
follow the sounds of the ping-pong ball,and you'll be sure to find the answer. Thereare about twenty-five Hi-Yers whose mainpurpose is to do a little some good andhave a lot of fun on the side. Strange tosay, they seem to accomplish both theseobjectives though the chattering and gig-gling never ceases. The Thanksgiving bas-kets, Christmas bundles, scrapbooks for thesick, cake sales, and a tea for the Hi-Yalumnae and teachers all helped to easetwenty-five separate consciences. As for hav-ing fun — entertaining speakers plus snacksat meetings helped make life more enjoy-able. The Boys' and Girls' Hi-Y Dance,and Mother-Daughter Banquet, the picnicsand swimming parties, the weekend campingtrip, and the final banquet were additionalattractions.

The Rod and Gun Club, under the supervision of Mr. Stephen O. Skakandy, hasjust completed one of the most active seasons it has ever enjoyed. The main purpose ofthis club is to instill in every member the love of the outdoors, and, above all, an appre-ciation of good clean sportsmanship.
During the past year the club has been privileged to hear many noted authoritieson wild game and fish life. Besides this, members were entertained by movies dealingwith trout fishing in various parts of the World.
The club has not confined its energy to enjoying the labors of others, however,many members have helped the State Fish and Game Commission to stock the county'sstreams, build animal shelters, and distribute food to game during the winter.
Three important events on the club's calendar were the opening days of the fishingand hunting seasons, respectively, and the day of the annual deep sea fishing trip. Onthese days club members were excused from school so that they could get practicalexperience in the field.

CHEERLEADERSWith a h'idi hiAnd a hidi ho,Come on team;Let's go!
Under the direction of Mrs. Hermia Leckner, thecheerleaders of Red Bank High School have chanted allyear for the enjoyment for the spectators and the encour-agement for the players. The cheering squad composedof Rose Recinelli—captain, Lillian Baden—second cap-tain, Helen Jarvis, Betty Doremus, Janet Smith andJosephine Caprioni have contributed many new andpeppy cheers. With the help of the Student Council,
56 •
they have conducted many pep rallies in the "gym" toarouse esprit de corps among the students and players.
This year the cheerleaders have acquired new uniforms,these consist of heavy, white sweaters, white skirts, andsaddle shoes with white and maroon socks, and ribbons.
The cheering squad will suffer a loss of five of itsmembers by graduation.
FOOTBALLIn 1941, Red Bank High School's foot-
ball team suffered a continuation of 1940's"hard luck" squad. All season the boysplayed their hearts out, but they wereseverely handicapped by lack of size andexperience.
Red Bank was unfortunate in losing itsfirst game to an impressive Leonardoeleven, one of its traditional rivals. Afterthis, followed a series of three defeats atthe hands of bigger and more experiencedLinden, Morristown, and the great As-bury Park "steamroller." The followingweek Princeton scored an unexpected andpartially unearned victory over a weakMaroon eleven to the tune of 27-0. Thenthe team took on new life and defeatedNeptune by staging a come-back in theclosing minutes to erase a first half leadof 7-0 to win to the tune of 13-7. Fol-lowing the Neptune victory, Red Bankseemed to sit back and wait for SouthRiver to defeat itself, and the result wasa sound 34-2 beating at the hands of the"Bricktowners." The final defeat at thehands of our greatest rival, Long Branch,was a veryseason but
Bank fought hard, and at the end of thehalf the score was 0-0; but in the secondhalf, Long Branch came back with newlife and scored twice to garner a 13-0win.
Mr. Guest, his assistants, Messrs. Smith,Wilhelm, and Gilliland did a very goodjob of coaching, considering the circum-stances under which they were compelledto work. The squad was, for the mostpart, small, young, and inexperienced, butas stated by the coaches had potentialpower and "intestinal fortitude." Mr.Gilliland, removed from the coaching staffby an accident in the early part of theseason, was sorely missed by the boys andhis fellow coaches.
We hope and trust that the Red BankHigh School football team will attain agreater degree of success in the 1942season. There seems to be no reason whyit shouldn't with a large group of ex-perienced sophomores and juniors in thevarsity squad.
We'll be rootin' for ya!!
57
TWIRLERSThe Red Bank band had their first drum majorette, Pat Dillon, in 1937.
The year of '38 Jane McHugh held the position. The next year theydecided to expand and Ann Reuther, Helen Powers, Audrey Outwater,and Lois Dilks became majorettes. What a hit they made! Then, thrilledover the success of '39 another majorette was added. They contributedgreatly to the attractiveness of the band by learning the art of twirling.
This year, Mr. Klopp completed his plan of a twirling corps by organ-izing a group of eight twirlers besides the five regular white satin-cladmajorettes. The twirlers, dressed in military style maroon jackets withshort full skirts and white boots, strutted gayly behind the regulars.
Mr. William James, twirling instructor from the city of Long Branchtaught both twirlers and majorettes unique twirling routines.

BOYS' BASKETBALLRed Bank High School's quest for glory in the
realm of scholastic basketball began on October 28,1941, when Coach Carl Smith issued the first callfor practice. This strenuous pace under the watch-ful eyes of Coaches Smith and Gilliland showed re-sults as the "Maroon" cagers won their opening gameand fared very well in the annual Round Robingames at Asbury Park.
After the vacation, the "Smithmen" got off onthe right foot in the Central Jersey Group III Con-ference by defeating South River. At this pointthings began to happen: Coach Smith in a briefmeeting told the squad that he was going to join theUnited States Navy as a chief petty officer. Followingthis was a heartbreaking defeat at the hands of Car-teret by a score of 29-2 5 in a very close game. Re-signed to clo their best in their last showing underCoach Smith, the team suffered another four-pointloss, after playing a brilliant game against Plainfield.
Coach Ernest Gilliland was then promoted to headcoach and proceeded to live up to the high standardswhich had been set by Smith. Led by Coach Gilli-land, the "Maroon" continued to "click," defeatingHamilton and Atlantic Highlands.
The latter part of the schedule, completed withfair success, included a victory over Rumson in anextremely interesting game.

TENNISWith the call of Tennis, Coach Harold
Potter met his three holdovers of the1941 squad, Edward Kislin, Harry Mat-thews, Guy Van Ness, and a host of otherplayers.
Mastering the game of tennis is just ashard for boys to acquire as playing agood game of football, basketball, orbaseball.
The future of a good tennis teamrests with the boy alone. His ability toaccomplish the harder tasks of the back-stroke, the slice, or the follow-throughrests on his willingness to practice hardand long.
The 1942 season had many brightspots and we are hoping that our spiritof this year will carry with it many morehonors to our long list of tennis accom-plishments.

GIRLS' BASEBALLThese past few weeks have been strenuous, marvelous,
and hectic. Baseball fever is in the air, and baseball fiendsare abroad.
Under the supervision of Mrs. Hermia Lechner, the girlshave had a week of tryouts to make the big team. Wehave, also, arranged class teams which oppose each other.Practice is held everyday to acquire skill in pitching, throw-ing, hitting, catching and running. The players love it somuch that there have been no wails about the broken nailswhich had taken weeks to grow. The, girls which have theleast ability—the almost hopeless variety—are eliminated,but there are few of these. A few home runs and doubleplays boost the morale and interest of even the weakestsister. The umpires are here, too—the girls who, after longhours of practice, take their lives in their hands to umpirea game. In addition, teams are managed by captains, whosee that each girl gets a chance to play. Bruised knees,aching muscles, long hours of practice mean little to girlswho have the will to play and win.

BOYS' BASEBALLNot far behind the Yankees, Dodgers, Giants, and
other major league clubs, Red Bank's young baseball aspir-ants plunged into their early spring training with a gustopeculiar to R. B. H. S. athletic teams. By« getting thatearly start the boys expected to obtain a starting berth,and, once situated, to give some of their traditional rivalsthe shellacking they so richly (we think) deserved.
Soon after organizing, Coach Ross Wiley learned, muchto his dismay, that his starting teams had been unmerci-fully torn asunder by graduation, age limits, and innumer-able other ineligibility laws, leaving only three lettermenon the entire squad! Coach Wiley, however, with his usualperspicuity, proceeded to put the best nine men on thefield. The team not only proved their ability at bat andin the field, but they also turned out to be "Beau Brum-mels" in their brand new maroon and gray uniforms.
Throughout the season the team depended mostly onbrilliant fielding by the smaller boys, rather than heavyslugging by the local giants. Despite this, there were occa-sions when the big guns rolled out and opened fire. Theonly difficulty was that these were disappearing cannonsand sometimes failed to reappear for too long intervals.However, at times, the "Maroon" team showed far betterthan high school ability, putting on exhibitions worthy of"semi-pro" aggregations.
Most of the best games were played in Central JerseyConference competition, with such old "enemies" as LongBranch, South River, and Carteret, etc. At any rate, winor lose, the boys gave everything they had and, as Mr.Wiley say, "No coach could ask for more."

Under the watchful eye of Coach Richard P. Guest, this year's track team shouldbe very impressive. The team is composed of several seasoned veterans and many un-seasoned competitors in many events. It will have seasoned participants in the weightsand pole-vault. The dashes have been strengthened by the presence of Thomas Sim-mons, David Wilson, and Clinton Doughty.
Others taking part in the remaining field and distance events are Louis DelPOmo,Morgan Eilert, Geronimo Brandon, and Francis Brandon.
Some of our present team may be able to replace names of previous track recordholders in our school. Here are the records. Let's shoot to place our name on this recordsheet.Event100 Yards220 Yards440 Yards880 Yards
