'Spirit' Staff
Receiving an "All New Jersey" rating from the Scholastic Press Association
of New Jersey was a fitting climax to a very busy year for the 1961-62
SPIRIT staff. The twenty-four member organization published six issues
of the school newspaper, SPIRIT; a special program for the Scholastic Fair;
and the Class of '62 yearbook this year.
Although proficiency in journalistic endeavor is the major aim of the
group, many other organizational talents are improved in the course of
the work.
Mr. Richar T Mullin instructs and surpervises the group.

Cooking Club
Do you smell tempting aromas at 3:15? If so, you can bet that theya
re coming from food prepared by the Foods Club! This club consists of twenty
eighth grade girls and has been in existence for three years.
Some of the foods prepared by the club members are pies, mock pizzas,
cupcakes, cookies, and brownies.
The main purpose of the Foods Club is to give students and opportunity
to learn how to prepare and serve simple, interesting, but somewhat different
foods. Any questions about homemaking the club members may have are answered
by club sponsor Miss Concetta Parisi.

Radio Club
In the United States, there are approximately 225,000 licensed amateur
radio operators, four of whom are the Radio Club members. What is the lure
of amateur radio? The thrill of direct two-way radiocommunication with
persons in foreign countries, of participating in emergency communications
in the time of disaster, of exploring the frontiers of radio development
with the equiment you built yourself: all these and more are the thrills
that are felt through the medium of the amateur radio. The
Radio Club, under the direction of Mr. Robert Quackenbush, prepares its
members to become radio operators, almost regardless of previous training
and experience.
