  • Roger Johnson
    Metuchen-Edison Historical Society Oral History Project Roger Johnson Date: June 15, 1995 Interviewer: Phyllis Boeddinghaus Transcribers: Janena Benjamin, July 2004 and Laura Cubbage-Draper, August 2019 Editor: Jennifer Warren, December 2019 Abstract: Roger Allen Johnson (1932-2009), son of Arthur Leroy Johnson and Gladys (Peck) Johnson, was born in Orange, New Jersey and moved to Metuchen as a child in 1936. Mr. Johnson was an Eagle Scout in his youth and he graduated from Metuchen High School in 1950. He entered Princeton University on a Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) scholarship and graduated in 1954 with a degree in public affairs. Following graduation, he became a commissioned officer in the Navy for three years before working as a marketing and advertising executive until his retirement. Mr. Johnson campaigned as a local Democratic politician during the early 1970s and he served on the Metuchen Board of Education and the Metuchen-Edison Racial Relations Council. He was a member of the Regional Girl Scout Council and he entertained many children at the local YMCA. Mr. Johnson also produced several children’s board games, was an award-winning actor in amateur theater, and was a nationally-known collector of antique dime-store soldiers and toys. He married Marilyn Edelman in 1954 and they had two daughters: Marcia (Johnson) Kaufman and Christina (Johnson) Swaak. In this interview, Mr. Johnson primarily discusses famous local sport athletes and sporting events in Metuchen. He also discusses his parents, his early childhood and education, and his involvement in local politics during the 1970s. Mr. Johnson also touches upon the gas line explosion in Durham Woods as well as his memories of World War II, his classmates and teachers, and Gort Bone China.

    dedication Miss Leis, Mrs. Switras, Mrs. Owsik It is the responsibility of the office staff to serve the faculty and the students. This they do with a willingness and an altruistic spirit which inspire us all. Although the office staff enjoys perhaps the least personal contact with the student, they assist him in every phase of his high school life. From the day you fill out your first schedule card to the day you receive your diploma, they are ever present in the background, guiding and aiding you. For these reasons, and in grateful appreciation of their never failing interest and understanding we respect­ fully dedicate this yearbook to Miss Mildred Leis, Mrs. Virginia Owsik, and Mrs. Vera Switras. The Editors I would like to take this opportunity to offer you my heartiest congratulations and sheerest wishes for the future. You are leaving many wonderful years behind, but stepping into a most exciting part of life. Though past years seem important now, it is the future that holds your place in life. Paraphrasing Louisa May Alcott, Let LIFE be your college; may you be graduated well and earn some honors. Eugene R. Biringer To The Class of '63: On this memorable occasion, I extend my sincerest congratulations and best wishes to the members of the graduating class. It is my fond­ est hope that the years spent at Metuchen High School will be valuable as you assume your roles in our complex society. You are now faced with the responsibility of insuring the continuation and preservation of our culture and way of life.
