Camden High School — January 1937 Yearbook

Purple & Gold Year Book, Class of January 1937

Camden High School — Class of January 1937

Another yearbook from Camden High School, this one presented in PDF file format in order to save time in getting it onto the website. I was fortunate enough to get multiple copies of this one, including a hard-cover edition that had belonged to Hazel Frye, formerly of 2874 Clinton Street. In this book there were a number of photos taken at the 60-year reunion, which took place at the Wiley Fellowship House in Marlton, New Jersey in 1997.

The yearbook has been split into seven PDF files, which you can download by clicking on the links below. All photos and graphics will be found in these files.

On this page I’ve listed the class members and their addresses, and the faculty, patrons, and advertisers.

At this busy, exciting time of graduation, it is our desire to express our deep esteem for, and to extend our sincere best wishes to Joseph Pelechowicz and Fred Steelman, our much-admired classmates, who met their ill-fortune in endeavoring to advance our class and school. We, the graduating class, feel certain that the strong fighting spirit of these boys, who are noted for their various abilities and good fellowship, will quickly bring them back to graduate from Camden High School.

In memory of our classmate Dorothy A. Lickfeld, who departed this life May 18, 1935.
