Page nineteen s=THE RED AND GREEN = SENIOR CAKE SALE On March 14, the Seniors held a cake sale. Since some members of the class are from Locust Valley, it was decided to hold one there as well as in Glen Cove. Mr. Clingen and Mr. Goelz very generously placed their drug stores at the disposal of the Seniors. Home made cakes were furnished by the members of the Senior Class. The committee that supervised the sale in Glen Cove consisted of Mabel Bjorkgren, Chairman, Irma Wood, Sylvia Rose, Margaret Braun, and Dorothy Lange. Those who took charge in Locust Valley were Emma Hotopp, Edna Stay, and Grace McKeever. The sale was a great success. The Seniors wish to express their gratitude to all who helped make this affair so successful. THE SENIOR BALL In previous years the annual Senior ball was held in the Kindergarten in the Primary Building. The destruction of that building by fire made it necessary for the Seniors to hold their dance elsewhere. Monsignor Kelty very generously placed St. Patrick’s Auditorium at the disposal of the Seniors, and the dance was held there on February 11. Because of the proximity of St. Valentine’s Day, the hall was tastefully decorated with red hearts and streamers. Favors were distributed, punch was served, and ice cream and wafers were sold. The Manford Aces of Brooklyn furnished the music. The dance committee was as follows: Miss Kuck of the Faculty, Emma Hotopp, Catherine Coughlan, Julia Orzehowsky, Herbert McCar-roll and Clifford Johnson. This affair was voted as the biggest and most successful in the school’s history. The Seniors sincerely appreciate the cooperation of all who worked for the success of the dance. SENIOR MAGAZINE DRIVE In the early fall, the Seniors embarked upon an enterprise not at all unfamiliar to this high school. To enlarge the fund necessary for the Washington trip, the class decided to solicit subscriptions for magazines among which were: “McCalls”, “The American”, “The Mentor”, “Col- liers”, and “The Woman’s Home Companion.” Page twenty THE RED AND GREEN In order to create a spirit of competition the class was divided into three teams: the Reds, the Greens, and the Blues. The respective cap- tains were Abraham Buxenbaum, Sylvia Rose and Effie Dickerson. Marshall Eastment acted as general sales manager. The race wras a close one; the Greens being victorious, and the Reds next, followed by the Blues. As a result of this drive, the Washington fund was greatly increased. Besides, the Crowell Publishing Company awarded the Seniors a pennant for selling more subscriptions per person than any other school in Nassau County. Their efforts had won for them the county championship. The Seniors are grateful to all who helped make this drive so successful. THE WASHINGTON TRIP At 6 :30 Thursday morning, April 21, a special bus met thirty seniors at the school. The students left immediately for Twenty-third Street where they took the ferry to Jersey City. Through the courtesy of Mr. Titus, a special car on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was provided for the class. Their first stop-over was at Philadelphia where they visited the historic parts of the city. After this, the party again boarded the special; this time not to stop till it was in Washington. It may seem remarkable, but the students never once appeared tired or restless during the long trip. Perhaps it was the new and ever changing scenery. Of course, they were not disappointed when they finally reached Washington. The massive but handsome Union Station impressed everyone. Here a special bus conveyed the party to the Cairo Hotel. The first tour was made to the Congressional Library Thursday evening. Before the party reached the library a cloud burst had drenched everyone. This seemed to add to the fun. Here at this most beautiful library in the world was seen the original Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. On the way home, it rained again. Some of the seniors’ pocket money was spent at the tailors to remove the effects of the rain. Friday morning, although it was raining, the class visited the Arlington National Cemetery, the grave of the Unknown Soldier, and the Lincoln Memorial. The last was one of the most inspiring sights of the entire trip. A trip to Mt. Vernon had been planned for the afternoon, but had to be canceled on account of the weather. The class spent the time as they pleased. Saturday morning the party visited the Smithsonian Institute where the collections of Roosevelt and the collections of the World War are found, the Bureau of Printing and Engraving where money and postage Page twenty-one THE REI) AND GREEN stamps are made, the Pan American Building, and finally the Capitol. After luncheon the class boarded a trolley for Mt. Vernon. The route was through the ancient city of Alexandria and along the shores of the Potomac. The colonial simplicity charmed everyone. The return trip, however, was made by boat. Sunday morning the members of the class went to the various churches. After that, some went to the Franciscan Monastery. Immediately after dinner preparations were made for the homeward journey. The return trip was uneventful. They arrived in Glen Cove some time after eleven o’clock. The next day found the members of the class in school; each one thought that it was incredible that the long planned trip was really over. CLASS HISTORY Our high school career began January 1923, when some of us were graduated from the Glen Cove Grammar School. In September we were joined by the graduates of Locust Valley Public School, the Parochial School, and even by one from Friends Academy. Therefore September 1923 marks our beginning as a class. Since we numbered over 150, we decided to show some real school spirit and organize. We held a meeting and elected officers. My, but we felt important! In our Sophomore year, the city held a Clean-up Week parade in which the high school took an important part. A prize was given the class having the best float, but the judges either overlooked us or did not share our opinion, for we did not win the prize. Somehow our class had failed to win distinction for itself during the first two years, but when we came back as Juniors, the high school “sat up and took notice.” Most of us had gained so much weight and had grown so tall that no one could dare call us meek-looking. The first thing we did was to hold a meeting and elect class officers with the following results: Frank Hartmeyer, President; Emma Hotopp, Vice-President; Bogue Hunt, Secretary; and Anna Germaine, Treasurer. We also chose royal blue and silver for our class colors. The class assumed a business aspect, when we decided to pay dues. In the G. O. elections, Frank Hartmeyer was chosen Vice-President and Emma Hotopp, Secretary; both members of our class. Many of the girls joined the glee club and the boys represented us on the football team. At the Interscholastic speaking contest held at Glen Cove, we had the honor of having Effie Dickerson, a member of our class, in the contest. Page twenty-two THE RED AND GREEN On class night last year we gave the Seniors a party in the Kindergarten. The dues we had paid during the year defrayed all expenses. We finished our Junior year well satisfied with ourselves. Our Senior year has been the best of all. From time to time some of the class dropped off until at the beginning of the term, we numbered 32. Nevertheless, our undertakings have all been successful. This is better realized when it is known that the class is almost entirely composed of the “weaker sex.” As soon as it was convenient, we held a class meeting. Thinking that royal blue and silver were too modest as colors for such an illustrious class, we chose yellow and black. However, we retained our motto “Vestigia nulla restrorsum”—no footsteps backward. Marshall Eastment was elected President; Mabel Bjorkgren, Vice-President; and Julia Orzehow-sky. Secretary. Miss Richards, our Treasurer, knew from past experience the large sums of money Seniors have to handle; so she asked for an assistant. To this office, we elected Thomas Scott who kept track of our money very efficiently. Incidentally, Tommy is Scotch. After we purchased our class banner, we turned our attention to rings. After much debating, we ordered gold rings with jade stones. We soon started to canvas for subscriptions to “McCall’s Magazine”, “The Woman’s Home Companion,” “Colliers,” “The American.” and “The Mentor.” The response given by our parents was prompt and generous, for we profited greatly from this drive. The Crowell Publishing Company awarded us a pennant for securing more subscriptions per pupil than any other school in the county. This is the first thing of its kind in Glen Cove High School. Then came the successful Senior Ball, which was held in St. Patrick’s Auditorium because the kindergarten had been destroyed by fire. The receipts from this dance were greater than from any previous Senior Ball, and no one questions its success socially. But then it takes a good class to conduct a good dance. Our next attempt to earn money was the cake sale. We held one in Glen Cove and one in Locust Valley. Here, as in other cases, the returns were greater than any before. The largest part of the Washington fund is obtained by means of the school play. The Seniors receive 60 per cent of the proceeds; the General Organization receives 40 per cent. This year the play was “The Show-off,” a recent Broadway success. The Seniors were well represented. Marshall Eastment made a perfect “show-off.” Edna Stay was his wife and Emma Hotopp her sister. All played their parts well. After the play, only a few weeks remained before we were to go to Washington. Of course, the girls talked of nothing but clothes. The boys scoffed at the girls, but you should have seen them when we were ready to leave. Why, one could hardly recognize James Mallon. Page twenty-three THE RED ANI) GREEN We left Glen Cove, Thursday, April 21, by bus to Twenty-third Street, New York City, then by ferry to Jersey City where we boarded a special car for Washington. Miss Richards met us in Philadelphia. After a sight-seeing trip there, we left for Washington. Here as previous classes had done, we visited all the places of interest. Some of these were the Capitol, Pan American Building, Lincoln Memorial, Smithsonian Institute, and Arlington. The next day, unlike other Monday mornings, we walked around in our sleep. The teachers were lenient with us, however. It seemed incredible that our long anticipated trip was over. Now I must tell you a bit about the members of this unusual class. Mae Allchin has worked hard during her last year, especially on refreshment committees. Lloyd Baldwin is almost Mae’s twin in that the both of them are so jolly. All of the girls envy Lloyd’s curly hair. History is his favorite subject. Sylene Bernstein has done good work for “The Tattler.” She kept us well informed as to the whereabouts of the alumni. Mabel Bjorkgren is our vice-president and salutatorian. Regardless of her healthy appetite, she was chairman of the cake sale committee. Margaret Braun has worked faithfully and is one of the most loyal members of the class. She is also one of the honor students. Abraham Buxenbaum has taken a prominent part in athletics, having played on both football and basketball teams. Boxie is one of Miss Richards’ favorites because he never talks or chews gum. ' Catherine Coughlan is editor of “The Tattler” and has displayed unusual literary talent. She also has the honor of being valedictorian. Leroy Dayton waited another year so that he might graduate with us. LeRoy has taken an active part in athletics. It was toward the end of the football season that he was able to “strike his stride.” All during the year, Ophelia Dayton and Sylvia Rose have been rivals as ticket sellers. Sylvia finally won the race. Effie Dickerson did good work for the class especially during the magazine drive. Marshall Eastment’s graduation will be two-fold—from high school and from amateur plays. He is our class president and has filled that office well. Esther Feinberg is one of the quietest in our class. The theories she disclosed in Physics put those of Newton and Galileo in the background. Alma Gerken has won the reputation of never being without her homework. As a result, she is an honor student. Anna Germaine and Esther Nylund, both good students, are almost inseparable. You hardly ever see one without the other except when a certain person from Lattingtown is around. Then Esther is seen no more. Page twenty-four THE RED AND GREEN The spendthrift of the class is Erwin Hahn. It was in Washington that Erwin was nicknamed “Dutch-treat Hahny.” It’s rather a long story but ask Mabel—she knows. Frank Hartmeyer is one of the school’s best athletes. He is captain of the football team and has taken an active part in all sports. We certainly are proud of Frank. Every day the bus has brought Emma Hotopp. Grace McKeever and Edna Stay from Locust Valley. Emma has served on various committees and has taken prominent parts in the school plays. Edna and Grace took charge of the selling of candy. No wonder it sold so quickly. Besides Edna took a leading part in this year’s play. Bogue Hunt is one of the most industrious among us. French is his favorite subject. Whenever the French class has a test, Bogue is among the missing. When it comes to oratory, Clifford Johnson “shines”, for he has taken part in several speaking contests. He was the athletics reporter on “The Tattler” staff. Dorothy Lange is another who waited an extra year so she could graduate with us. We appreciated her waiting because she is jolly and worked hard for the class. When we studied Physics, we learned that no machine had been perfected that could produce perpetual motion. The inventors must have overlooked Dorothy Lockw'ood. What an incessant talker! The world has yet to receive its most famous woman. James Mallon, better known as “Leap”, may not know how to play football, but no one in high school can hold a candle up to his “gawlf”. “Leap” also pitched on the Senior baseball team. Herbert McCarroll, popularly known as “Bibs”, is a talented pianist. But how anyone can ever wear to school the loud sweater and socks that he does and still live is a mystery. Thomas Scott has been our competent assistant treasurer. He also took an important part in athletics and this year’s play. Thomas is all speed. He ran up the Washington Monument which is 555 feet high in 7i 2 minutes—he has remarkable wind. Irma Wood has taken care of the history annex throughout the whole year. Laura Young is a good student even if she is bashful. The most important rpember of our class is Miss Richards. Her services to the class have been innumerable. Always patient and kind, she has indeed been a friend. Thus, our history as far as this school is concerned is completed. During the busy years that are before us, we will never forget the pleasant hours spent in Glen Cove High School. Julia Orzehowsky.

Page twenty seven THE RED AND GREEN — - PROPHECY OF CLASS OF ’27 The exhilarating sensations of success are now mine after five years of patient toil, subsequent to my graduation from Glen Cove High with the class of ’27. The product of my intellectual genius is an attachment to the modern radio, which portrays persons in their stations of life many years hence. In my initial attempt I decided to satisfy my curiosity in regard to the future of my former classmates. With this end in view I attempted to locate Mr. Gribbin, my one time principal. I adjusted the dials to 1947—suddenly I heard the well-known voice of Mr. Gribbin announcing: Station—S E E R—Dist. Attorney E. J. Gribbin speaking. I will now proceed with the latest reports of the great murder of mystery, of which I expect to conduct the prosecution. This is well known as the apparently “Unfathomable Burke Case.” However, even at this moment, I am aware of the fact that it has been solved and that the criminals are no longer at large. Again Marshall Eastment, the greatest detective of times, known as “Never Fail East-ment” has come into the lime light. An apparently insignificant clue, closely followed by Eastment led to the solution. However, it took the genius of the Latin interpreter, Miss Richards, to decipher the clue—a mere scrap of ancient parchment leading to the arrest of the criminals. Following this, Mr. Gribbin stated that he hoped that some of the Class of ’27 were listening in as he was now going to relate the fortunes of their former classmates. This program, he stated, had been arranged in honor of the celebration of the 20th anniversary of the graduation of the Class of ’27. (Mr. Gribbin had been enabled to do this because he had recently attended an alumni meeting.) We will first consider the lot of jolly Mae Allchin. Pardon me, Mae Alton, as she is known on the Gay White Way, where she stars in musical comedies. At present she is occupied with the stellar role in Norton Levine’s (once Norman Levin) newest and greatest musical comedy “Hot Stuff”. In this play, our Mae is a unique and willowy dancer, who shows the advance of Dance through the ages. (From a good source, I learned that Mae excelled in the Black Bottom, of which she gave an exhibition at Washington in ’27.) Our cute little friend, Dot Lockwood, has succeeded in interesting Norton Levin in her plays. (Yes, she did have a pull with Norman.) Of course her talent as a poet has not been laid aside for often one comes upon an extremely emotional poem and discovers her name attached to it. I might add that a play written by Dot was the first one put on the stage by Norman and starred with Mae. So with such a rare combination—could it have been other than a success? Page twenty-eight THE RED AND GREEN The Honorable Mr. Gribbin next tells me that especially for my benefit he will arrange a means by which I can tune in on and actually see my former classmates. A great deal of static interrupts us when, being told to adjust the television dial of my radio,—I see, yes I even hear the familiar voice of “Boxie”, I should say Aaron Baum. He tells me of his recent research test from which he had finally succeeded in perfecting a formula for non-parkable chewing gum. Due to this invention he was immediately established as President of Wrigley’s Chewing Gum Corporation. (I should have expected to find “Boxie” in some way connected with chewing gum, for well do I remember his aversion to it in high school.) Mr. Baum tells me to prepare myself for a great surprise for he is going to present his wife to me. Alas, can it be true? Are my eyes deceiving me? Yes, it is Edna Stay. She gave a little talk on “To what she attributed her husband’s success.” Gradually the scene changed, I see before me the interior of a Hollywood studio—the rehearsal of a new picture. Among the actors I recognize Ophelia Dayton, who is playing the part of a siren, and also Emma Hotopp taking the role of the heroine, a very emotional and tragic part, for which I consider Emma well suited. Ophelia’s haughty and aloof air, I judge, warranted her present position. Meanwhile, I hear strains of a very beautiful musical selection— vaguely familiar—yes, it was our school song. This fact aroused my suspicions for who other than “Bibs” could play it so well? My suspicions are confirmed for soon it is announced that we were listening to the famous McCarroll orchestra playing the Glen Cove High School Song. Now I tune in at the Princeton-Harvard football game of ’47. What is it I hear? —so much confusion and shouting. Yes, Princeton has won! What—due to whom—surely not Frank Hartmeyer. Yes, I cannot be mistaken for I distinctly hear cheers for our coach! coach! We want Hartmeyer, our coach! I come back again to New York, to Carnegie Hall, in fact. Here, I hear the well modulated voice of Clifford Johnson, once our orator, now an eminent statesman. He is addressing a great multitude of people in his campaign for governor of New York State. Again there is a shift of scene and I see before me a large and unfamiliar room. There is a long narrow table in the center of the room, around which 13 chairs are arranged systematically. Twelve of these chairs are occupied by unfamiliar gentlemen. The one chair at the head of the table is vacant. It seemed to me that I had accidently tuned in a meeting of the Board of Directors of a large brokerage concern—surely this had no connection with the Class of ’27. I decided to tune out of this Page twenty-nine THE RED AND GREEN station. Just as I was about to do so, I saw the well-known figure of Julia Orzehowsky approach and take the vacant chair. At first this seemed strange to me but when she proceeded with her business as President of a notable New York Eond House—I recall the fact that as secretary of our class, Julia performed her duties in a very business-like manner. Mr. Erwin Hahn, I learn, is the model for the Arrow Collar Company. This seems to suit Erwin for well do I remember the fact that he was chosen the neatest dressed boy in our class. Surely, he was a “Beau Brummel.” Miss Catherine Coughlan, as one would expect, is the famous editor of “Society Breezes” a paper exclusively devoted to society notes. From Kay I learn that Margaret Braun has become a prominent research worker in the Congressional Library at Washington, D. C. I was also told that Anna Germaine has become an evangelist following closely in the steps of Aimee McPherson. Esther Nylund, she said, is at present in Berlin, Germany, representing the United States at the International Hairdressers’ Convention. (Yes, I would expect her to make hair dressing her life work for she always kept her hair slicked and in place at school.) Oh! I had almost forgotten Bogue Hunt. I again turn my dials and this time tune in on the Annual Meeting of the Aviators’ Association. This meeting is a special one to celebrate the success of Bogue Hunt in his non-stop flight to the North Pole, in his specially built and equipped monoplane. He was accompanied by the memorable James Mallon who is lauded on his great success in having explored and opened the secrets of the North Pole to the world. Next, I am at the celebration of the tenth anniversary of the construction of the Hudson Bridge. Thomas Scott tells us what the realization of his great dream of spanning the river has meant to him. It will be recalled that it was under his direction that this great feat was accomplished. Esther Feinberg is the owner of a night club, which has never been raided by the police. Coy, little Sylene is a French teacher in a Boy’s High School. (Can you imagine her in a Boys High?) Now, what of Effie Dickerson—what did life have in store for her? She is just a physical training teacher. Just think! After having had such bright prospects for a rhetorical career—she became a physical training teacher. Well, one would expect Effie to be opposite. I try to get further news of my former classmates, but in vain. So as a last resort, I attempt to get station “S E E R” again. At last my efforts are rewarded for I hear Mr. Gribbin, who tells me about the lives Page thirty TUP: RED AM) GREEN = of my remaining classmates—those with whom I have been unable to get in touch. Laura Young, I learn, has been successor to Miss Brandhorst in the Glen Cove High. Lloyd Baldwin, as we surely would expect, is teaching American History at Columbia University, with his revised edition of Muzzey’s History C. LeRoy Dayton has succeeded in attaining a great position in life for, after his experience at the Glen Cove Trust Company, he has after 20 years earned the distinction of having instituted a national bank in Bulls-head. Alma Gerken has followed her mathematical line and is now being praised for her success in her discovery of a new method to solve trigonometrical problems, that is—“Have Miss Richardson do them.” Our friend Irma has followed the prophecy of her class and was truly the first of the Class of ’27 to marry. Mabel Bjorkgren, is at present in Europe with her husband, touring France and Switzerland. Even though she is married, Mabel keeps up with her chosen career, teaching of sciences. She is well known as a chemical genius. And Grace McKeever has become internationally famous as the fastest typist in the world. She is said to have attained the speed of 300 words per minute—thus living up to her reputation. But I have reserved the greatest surprise for the last—guess what Dot Lange is doing? Why, she has replaced Gertrude Ederle in her renown as a long distance swimmer. Dot has succeeded in swimming the Atlantic Ocean. This, I should say wouldn’t be considered so great a feat by her. But Oh! What a dizziness! My head! Have I been under the influence of a hypnotic—no—it is still 1927 and I have just been day dreaming. Sylvia Rose. Page thirty-one THE REI) AND GREEN A WORD TO THE JUNIORS Every high school student awaits with eager anticipation the coming of his Senior year. The humble Freshman looks up with awe to the imposing Senior. He respects, esteems, and envies him. I say envy, for mingled with his respect for him, there is a trace of jealousy. The Sophomore’s attitude is similar to that of the Freshman. But the Junior, on approaching the coveted goal, assumes a different point of view. He does not regard the Senior with wonder and astonishment any longer. Dear Juniors, you are now on the threshhold of becoming Seniors. You will enjoy many privileges. You will take your work more seriously. Your teachers will be more companionable, and you will understand them better. The eyes of the school will be upon you. In plain English, to be a Senior is “no joke.” Knowing that you are the criterion, you must act accordingly. Some students are susceptible to “Senioritis”. That is, taking advantage of their positions, they lord over others. This only incurs the dislike and aversion of their fellow students. The last year in high school is, without doubt, the most eventful and the most interesting one. Social events and athletic activities are more numerous. In their common interest, raising money for their Washington trip, the Seniors become more closely related. There is a spirit of cooperation and friendship which springs up, making the Senior class like one large family. Margaret Braum. Page thirty-two = THE RED AND GREEN; SAID ’28 TO ’27 O thou wise, sagacious Seniors, Potentates of Glen Cove High Class of nineteen twenty-seven, We. thy slaves, thy humble servants, Bid thee all a fond farewell. Many moons for thee we’ve labored, Selling tickets by the score, Buying sweetmeats from thy vendors, Patronizing all they functions To get thee off to Washington; To insure thy graduation, Let thee copy “chem” notebooks, Algebra and physics problems— Did it, not for love or honor, But that in our class next twelvemonth There will be no twenty-sevens. All the year the lower classmen Have before thee cringed and cowered— Next year, over Sophs and Freshies WE will hold triumphant sway.

Supposin’ it was dark and I couldn’t see ’em. What would I do then?” “Turn on the lights,” replied the practical Timothy. “Say, for goodness sake, Maria, take your foot off that self-starter. You’ll run the battery down.” “You don’t say,” replied Mrs. Jones amiably. “That would be awful. What do I do now Timothy? Hurry and tell me, it’ll be dark soon, and I won’t be able to see them pedals.” They drove on for several miles, neither one of them talking. Mrs. Jones was too busy working the pedals to pay any attention to Timothy, and he was too busy watching the side of the road. At last Mr. Jones suggested that Mrs. Jones step on the gas and release the clutch. “Sounds easy” remarked Mrs. Jones dubiously. “Where’s that thing anyway? You really should turn the lights on, Timothy Obadiah Jones. My! I should have had my other glasses on, I didn’t expect it to be like this. It takes an awful lot of courage to drive these pesky things anyhow. What do I have to do?” “Release the clutch,” answered Timothy patiently, “and step on the gas. No gently! My goodness Maria, that jerk almost knocked my glasses off. Gently, I said.” After a lot more troubles Mr. and Mrs. Jones were finally started and were sailing along in rather a crooked line. “My ain’t this grand!” ejaculated Mrs. Jones, leaning complacently back in the seat and gripping the wheel tightly. Page forty THE RED AND GREEN “Well, where are we goin’ now?” he demanded, his patience at an end. “Maybe we better be gettin’ home. It’s gettin’ dark now, and I won’t be able to see them pies. I left ’em in the oven and I bet they’re burned to a crisp. Oh, what will Aunt Mehitable say. She’s cornin’ tonight.” “Here, I better drive or we’ll never get home.” Mr. Jones moved over and started the car. He soon had it spinning along the road. When they were almost home Mrs. Jones ventured to ask, rather timidly, “Timothy, do you reckon I’ll ever learn to drive this pesky thing?” And Timothy’s answer was nonchalantly evasive, “Maybe, sometime.” Isabel Lockwood. A Day of a Fly’s Life Monday I awoke rather late in the midst of an explanation of the electromagnet given by Mr. Gribbin to the Physics class. I had enjoyed a good sleep on the top of the picture frame with last year’s class at Mount Vernon. The scenery must have given me such a peaceful sleep. The best part of the day was spent during the noon hour in recreation, such as skiing swiftly over the frosted top of Dot Lockwood’s cake. Wheel What sport to spread my wings and soar over to a chocolate one. Variety! The spice of my life! Toward the end of the day I flew through the study hall. I wanted to skate, but there seemed to be no sponsors of Wild Root hair tonic in view. Who was that asleep—or nearly so? How could he sleep with such a loud sweater and tie on? Oh, I recognized the broad, sloping forehead of MeCarroll. I didn’t enjoy the skating, for it didn’t last long. He nearly got me. After cooling my feet in an ink well, I flew to my favorite room—Miss Baker’s. To complete my limbering up, I tried the new steps of the Black Bottom. That paper on the desk looked nice and smooth. I preferred it to be clean. I did not like the rows of names and numbers. However, I’d let that go. After five minutes of my strenuous, classical dancing, I held my wing and laughed! Those names and numbers! My inky feet had fixed them! To finish the day I enjoyed a good game of hide and seek with my cousins and friends in and out the yellow ribs of the skeleton. My various activities had fatigued me greatly, and I got as far as Caesar in the study hall alcove. In a cozy nook behind his left ear, I gave myself up to slumber. Effie Dickerson. Page forty-one THE RED AND GREEN The Declaration of Independence, Doctrines, Powers and Rights Therein Indicated Just one hundred and fifty years ago, when the Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4. 1776, a new nation was born. The Declaration of Independence formally severed all political ties that had held England and her American colonies together. The reasons for the Declaration of Independence were numerous. The refusal by George III of the petition known as the “Olive Branch Petition,” which was sent to him by the Continental Congress, angered the colonists. It may be said that the conduct of George III was largely responsible for the separation of the two countries. If he had taken the advice of some of the broad-minded and liberal English statesmen who could see the point of the colonists, the separation might have been averted. Probably, a reconciliation might have come about in some way. Thomas Paine in his pamphlet, “Common Sense,” convinced the colonists of their lack of consistency. The colonists were openly rebelling against England and yet were proclaiming their loyalty to the king. Paine argued that it was time to lay sentimental scruples aside and to show some sound reasoning. The colonists looked upon the employment of foreign mercenaries as unworthy of the head of a civilized nation. When the “Olive Branch Petition” was spurned by George III, various state legislatures ordered their representatives to advocate independence. The French and English wars, ending in 1763, had taught the colonists how to manage their own political and economic life. England was too engrossed in managing her wars to pay much attention to the colonists and, therefore, the colonists developed their independence. Also the removal of the French from America gave the colonists only one enemy, England. Thus the colonists had grown to feel independent of England’s support. It was this feeling of confidence in their own strength that led the colonists to demand independence through their state legislatures. Richard Lee, one of the representatives of Virginia in the Continental Congress, made a motion on June 7. 1776 that “these united colonies are and of right ought to be free and independent states, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is and ought to be totally dissolved.” This motion was made a part of the Declaration of Independence but was put on the table until July 1, 1776. At the same time, a committee consisting of Jefferson, Sherman, Livingston, John Adams, and Franklin was appointed to draw up a formal declaration in case Lee’s mo- Patje forty-two THE RED AND GREEN tion for independence was accepted. On July 1, 1776, the motion was taken from the table and debated. July 4, 1776 marks the acceptance of the formal declaration. When Thomas Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence, he put his heart and soul into it. His draft was slightly modified by the other members of the committee. The long list of grievances enumerated in the Declaration indicates that the antagonism toward England was caused by certain legislative measures passed by the English Parliament and enforced by the King. The colonists protested against these acts because they infringed upon the colonists’ rights which, as Englishmen, they were entitled to enjoy. The acts also interfered with the economic interests of the colonists. These grievances justified the Revolution and the Declaration of Independence. The so-called doctrines of the Declaration of Independence are self-evident truths. Foremost among them is the Doctrine of Equality—“All men are created equal.” It places all men on the same equal plane. This doctrine was one of the chief factors in the abolition of slavery in the United States. China and other countries have been hindered in their progress because of their caste systems. There the wealthy class enjoys a commanding position, while the lower classes are denied a share in the country’s commercial wealth and political power. The Doctrine of Inalienable Rights—“Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness—” has attracted many people from other countries to the shores of the United States to enjoy these rights. The inalienable right of life has been fully guaranteed by the United States Government. The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus can not be suspended unless public safety deems it necessary. This writ requires that an accused person awaiting trial be brought into court to see if he may be legally held. No bill of attainder or ex-post-facto law may be passed. The former is a legislative act under which a person may be condemned to death or banished without an opportunity to defend himself in court. The latter law provides for punishment of acts committed before a law was passed relating to these acts. Anyone may enjoy liberty and the pursuit of happiness providing that in seeking liberty and happiness, he does not interfere with another’s quest of the same joys. No one may be deprived of life or liberty without due process of law. The right of trial by jury is guaranteed. No cruel or unusual punishments may be inflicted. The Doctrine of Social Compact—governments are set up to attain these above ends—“ points out the necessity of having governments and confirms the need of the above ends. Perhaps, the doctrine which insures the citizen of the United States his share in the government is that powers of government rest on the consent of the gov- Page forty-three THE RED AND GREEN erned.” The citizens of the United States indirectly elect a president to enforce the laws, a legislative body to make the laws, and a judicial body to pass judgment on the laws. Each citizen that is able-bodied has a chance to share in the making of his municipal, state and national government. Negligence on the part of the citizen to cast his vote is self-denial of the right of self-government. ‘The right to overthrow a government subversive of these ends, but not for light and transient causes” is another doctrine of the Declaration of Independence. The government provided for by the Constitution of the United States was set up to attain the rights mentioned in the Declaration of Independence, but if at any time it became subversive of those ends, it could be and should be altered or abolished. The Sesqui-Centennial Exposition held at Philadelphia from May 31, 1926 to December 31, 1926 commemorated the one hundred fiftieth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The progress made by and the prosperity enjoyed by the United States under the form of government adopted a century and a half ago are unrivalled throughout the world. With England we are ‘‘enemies in war and friends in peace.” May the United States enjoy as many more prosperous years as it has in the past. Julia Orzehowsky. Page forty-four THE RED AND GREEN The Tattler Staff Speaks It has been our good fortune to edit the “Tattler” during the last year. The work was fascinating, and we are loath to leave it, but we hope that next year’s staff will regard the publishing of our paper as a special privilege and sacred trust accorded the Senior Class. We know that our successors are capable. To them we say, “Continue where we leave off, but strive for still higher things. There is always room for improvement. May you who follow ‘Carry On’!” The New Primary School On the site of the former Primary School will be erected another building, modern in every detail. The plans have all been decided upon, so it is now an assured fact. The entrance will be on Dosoris Way. This building will contain a large auditorium and gymnasium which will probably be used by high school students as well as by the grade children. When the proposed primary building will have been erected, the city might be proud of its school plant, were it not for the High School building. This, from the exterior, is charming with its rustic appearance and setting, but a school is not a place in which beauty alone should be considered. This building is anything but modern in its construction and fittings—it is, in fact, a fire trap. Indeed, every precaution is taken; fire drills are frequent, but the building has served its day. If fire once gained a foothold in it, there would be no saving the structure. The razing of the Primary Building by fire should be a warning to the people. Let us hope the next step after the completion of the Primary Building will be toward a new High School. Page forty-five THE RED AM) GREEN GCMCRQL fICUS Wfirilgr't (-liftA ‘The Tattler’s” Second Year “The Tattler”, our school paper, was founded by the class of ’26 for the purpose of promoting student literature, and for the interest and enjoyment of the students. Realizing the many benefits derived from having a school paper, the class of ’27 took up the work where its predecessors had left off. Their first step in improving “The Tattler” was to have it printed instead of typewritten. This called for more material, so it was decided to edit a bi-monthly instead of a weekly paper. The Class Notes and Joke editors were omitted from the staff, and an Exchange Editor and an Assistant Business Manager were added. In the Exchange column the publications of other schools were commented upon. Many favorable criticism were received by “The Tattler”. We hope that “The Tattler” will continue to prosper again next year. The following are the members of this year’s staff: Editor ........................................... Catherine Coughlan Business Manager ....................................... Thomas Scott Ass’t Business Manager ..............................

The books which were used for history reference, were kept in the office in the rear of the study hall. The Senior girls took charge of the annex during their free periods. This plan, as well as being more convenient for the students, was of great help to the librarians, and will probably be in use permanently from now on. Page forty-six = THE REI) AND GREEN = Patriotic Essay Contest Every year the students of the high school are asked to write essays on patriotic subjects. The best one is selected by the English teachers and submitted to the committee in charge of this state-wide contest. The winner is awarded a gold medal by the Daughters of the American Revolution. In former years everyone in the high school had to write an essay, but this year, however, the contest was confined to the Juniors and Seniors. History Essay Contest Every year the students of American history compete in a state-wide essay contest, sponsored by the Sons of the American Revolution. Prizes are awarded for the best essays on a specified patriotic subject. This year the topic was: “The Declaration of Independence; Doctrines, Powers and Rights Therein Contained.” The essay written by Julia Orzehowsky was chosen to represent Glen Cove High School. The French Club Last year’s French clubs proved so interesting and valuable to the students of French that the idea was again carried out this term. However, instead of having a separate club in each class, one club composed of all the students of French who wished to belong was formed. Officers were elected and dues fixed. The club met once every two weeks, discussed business and was entertained by two of its members at each meeting. Much enjoyment and benefit were derived from the programs. The following were the officers: President ........................................... Martha Fadrowsky Vice-President ............................................ Thomas Scott Secretary .......................................... William Gengerelly Treasurer ............................................... William Boyce Memorial Day Parade The students of the high school took part in the Memorial Day parade again this year. Each class was represented by a float. A prize was offered for the best one. The entire school sang “The Star Spangled Banner” at the Memorial exercises. Page forty-seven THE RED AND GREEN “THE SHOW-OFF” From the standpoint of acting, as well as from the financial standpoint, “The Show-Off” was undoubtedly the most successful play that Glen Cove High School has ever produced. No one could have better typified the character of Aubrey Piper, the “Show-Off,” than Marshall East-ment. He acted with remarkable naturalness and ease; and his calm way of taking the credit for everything worth-while kept the audience continually laughing. Edna Stay took the part of Amy Fisher, the younger “flapper” sister. She brought out to perfection the contrast of Amy’s boasted independence of her mother’s home, before her marriage with Aubrey, and the pathetic meekness with which she afterwards sought her mother’s comfort and advice. Emma Hotopp, who had the rather difficult part of the older, more serious-minded daughter, Clara, acted with real dramatic force. Her husband, Frank Hylund. a quiet man, who did not love his wife, but spent all his time atoning for a mistake of the past, was cleverly played by William Gengerelly. Thomas Scott brought out very well the character of Mr. Fisher, the quiet old breadwinner of the family. Stanley Burhans acted very creditably in the role of Joe, the family genius. Margaret Edwards as Mrs. Fisher, the imposed-on mother, and the center about whom all the trouble revolved, fitted the part perfectly. Even the characters of Mr. Gill, the typical workman, and Mr. Rogers, Page forty-eight THE REI) AND GREEN the matter-of-fact insurance agent, were well developed by Herbert Mc-Carroll and James Williams. During the four nights of the play, the Senior girls helped swell the funds by selling home-made fudge. Altogether, the proceeds of the play amounted to over $850. Much of the play’s success was due to the work of Miss McNamara who coached the play, to Miss Renison who was the business manager, and to Mr. Martin who designed and set up the scenery. The School Band Last fall a school band, composed of all the boys who could play the fife or the drum, was formed. The band played at football games and was greatly appreciated by the students. The members of the band are as follows: Ralph Dimenna, Matthew Brown. Abraham Buxenbaum, James McQuillan, John Miller, James Ricci, James DeMilt, Robert Danis, Harry Niece, Irving Jones, Anthony Sparaco, Fred Dimenna, Erdos Case, Nathaniel Alexander, Edmund Lupinsky, Charles Scefors, Townsend Drew, Herbert Laromer, Alfred Lebman, Watson Shaffsick, John Duke, James Brett, Lawrence Malinowski, Walter Czhewski, Raymond Miller. Walter Dayton, Bogue Hunt, Walter Wood, and Nicholas Dallas. The Prize Speaking Contest The annual prize speaking contest was held in the h’gh school auditorium on May thirteenth. The speakers included: Mary Trehey, Mar- garet Edwards, Emma Hotopp, Edna Stay, Clifford Johnson, Abraham Buxenbaum, Stanley Burhans and Marshall Eastment. The judge was Mr. Francis McCabe, Director of Public Speaking at Roosevelt High School, Yonkers, New York. He awarded the first prize of ten dollars in gold for the best speaker among the girls to Edna Stay, whose selection was “Pauline Pavlova,” and, of the boys, to Clifford Johnson, who spoke on “Defense, Preparedness, Pacifism.” The second prizes were given to Emma Hotopp and Abraham Buxenbaum. During intervals at the contest, the Glee Club rendered several selections. They were: “Sylvia,” “On the Road to Mandalay,” “Rain,” and “Until”. Directly before and after the contest the school orchestra played “Melodie” and “Can’t Yo’ Heah Me Callin’ ”. The winners of the first prize represented Glen Cove in the Interscholastic Speaking Contest held at Roslyn on May twentieth. Page forty-nine THE KEI) AND GREEN = THE GLEE CLUB Early in September Mr. Gribbin asked for volunteers to form a girls’ glee club. In spite of the fact that belonging to the club meant staying after school two nights a week, a large number of girls responded, and this year's glee club was bigger and better than ever before. Two school credits were given for the year’s work. We sincerely hope that this organization will continue next year, for the singing has inspired everyone in the high school.

The squad at the first day’s practice numbered about thirty-three boys, most of whom had very little knowledge of football. The coaches devoted the first few weeks of practice to conditioning the candidates, and it was not until after many weeks of hard work that the team was in good shape for the opening game. The first game of the season was played with St. Pauls' Prep, at Garden City, Long Island, on October 3. Our team handed them a severe trouncing—14 to 6. This was a very great honor for G. C. H. S. because it was the first public school ever to have beaten St. Pauls’ in football. The whistle blew, the thump of a shoe against the pigskin was heard, and a football soared into the air. Burhans, right half back, scored early in the first quarter over fake cross buck. The try for the extra point was also a success. In the third quarter after the ball had surged up and down the field a good many times, Captain Hartmeyer plunged over the goal line for the second touch down for Glen Cove. Ginger made the extra point. St. Paul scored only in the last quarter after a series of passes. The final score stood Glen Cove 14, St. Paul 6. On October 11, the football team won its second game of the season by the score of 7 to 6. Freeport’s team had a heavy line supported by four big, hard running backs. Our score came in the first quarter on a long end run which was followed by two successful line plunges. Glen Cove received the extra point for the kick after the touchdown. Freeport scored in the second quarter only. Its attempt for the extra point was unsuccessful. In the second half both teams fought hard; but neither gained a point; therefore the final score stood Glen Cove 7, Freeport 6. Page fifty-two THE REI) AND GREEN On Saturday, October 16, the team attended the New York Univer-sity-Tulane football game, for the game with St. Francis’ Prep, which had been scheduled for that date had been canceled. The next game on the schedule was the one with our old friendly enemy, the Corning Free Academy of Corning, New York. Up to that time three games had been played of which only one was a victory for Glen Cove. At twelve o’clock midnight, October 21, the Glen Cove grid warriors started on their long journey to Corning where the great game of the season was to be piayed. The bus arrived in Corning at 4 :50 on Friday afternoon. Scattered about the town were large posters bearing the following inscription, “Welcome Glen Cove.” Saturday morning the boys accepted an invitation to visit the Corning glass works which is one of the largest glass factories in the world. This trip the boys enjoyed immensely. About 2:30 p. m. the parade from the Corning Free Academy through the town to the football field began. The procession was led by the Academy Fife and Drum Corps. The two bus loads of players followed. Before the game Mr. Gribbin read a telegram from Mike Petrucci. Mike captained the first Glen Cove team that beat Corning. Mr. Chapman also gave a short, inspiring talk to the boys. In the first half Glen Cove was first to score. Hartmeyer on an off tackle play went over the goal line. The attempt for the extra point failed. Corning scored its first touchdown after a series of forward passes, but failed to make the extra point. In the second half Corning was first to score, not only a touchdown but the extra point. The whole Corning crowd went wild with excitement. The Glen Cove boys, not yet defeated, marched to another touchdown, but its try for the extra point failed. The G. C. H. S. team started on another rampage down the field, but it was too late; the whistle blew, and the game was over. Corning had won, 13 to 12. That evening a dance was held in honor of the Glen Cove boys. This affair was well attended and enjoyed by everyone. At ten o’clock Sunday morning, the boys left for home amidst the cheers of the Corning fans. Many people from Glen Cove attended the game. Miss Richardson, Miss Renison, Miss Relihan, Miss Kuck. and Miss McNamara represented the Glen Cove High School faculty. Page fifty-three THE REI) AND GREEN = On October 30 our team met defeat for the second time in two years at the hands of the strong Lynbrook team. Although our team made almost twice as many first down as Lynbrook, it failed to plant the pigskin over the goal line often enough to spell defeat for Lynbrook. Neither team scored in the first few minutes, but in the second quarter Scheb of Lynbrook broke loose and made a sensational 80 yard run for a touchdown. The attempt for the extra point was successful. In the third quarter Lynbrook again scored by making forward passes, but its attempt for the kick over failed. In the last quarter just before the whistle blew, Glen Cove scored her only touchdown. The final score read as follows: Glen Cove 6, Lynbrook 13. On Saturday, November 6, one of the most thrilling football games ever witnessed on a Glen Cove field was played between Glen Cove and Lawrence. In the first quarter Glen Cove, battling with a team far superior in size but not in spirit, gradually forced the ball up to Lawrence’s 15 yard line. After a few short plunges the giant Lawrence line swayed and then broke; Glen Cove had scored. The attempt for the extra point failed. In the second quarter, Glen Cove moved the ball up to Lawrence’s 25 yard line where they lost it on downs. Lawrence took possession of the ball. Then Oxford, our opponents’ full back, managed to slip thru tackle and run thru a broken field 75 yards for a touchdown. Oxford also kicked the extra point. In the third quarter Lawrence scored again after a series of end runs and line plunges. Oxford again kicked for the extra point. In the final quarter neither team scored. Thus the game ended 14 to 6 against Glen Cove. Saturday, November 13, the high school football team defeated the Hempstead team by the score of 7 to 6. In the first half, Glen Cove had the ball several times within a few feet of its rivals’ goal line. However, neither team scored. In the second half Hempstead scored by means of a tricky forward pass. Its attempt for the extra point was a failure. In the last quarter Glen Cove had possession of the ball on Hempstead’s 65 yard line. Hart-meyer then scored on an off tackle play. He turned what looked like defeat into a brilliant victory, for Glen Cove made the extra point and won the game. On Saturday. November 23, the thirteenth annual football clash between Glen Cove and Port Washington resulted in a victory for Glen rage fifty-four THE FOOTBALL TEAM THE RED AND GREEN Cove. Up to date, Glen Cove has won 7 games; Port has won 5; while one resulted in a tie. Neither team scored in the first quarter although Glen Cove had the ball on Port’s ten yard line once but failed to score. In the second quarter Glen Cove kept the enemy in the shadow of its goal most of the time. The ball was about on Port’s 35 yard line when a peculiar thing happened. Port lined up for a kick, but instead of kicking the ball, the back threw it wide for the left end. When he realized what had happened, it was too late. He had not thrown the ball to his left end but into the waiting arms of our right end who caught it and dashed over the line for our only touchdown—the only touchdown made by any one throughout the game. Maliesky kicked for the extra point. In the fourth quarter both teams fought ferociously; but in spite of all their efforts neither team was able to score. Thus another contest between the two rivals ended. The same evening a huge bonfire was held in the rear of the school to celebrate the victory. The Varsity Club which is made up of all the former stars of the G. C. H. S. team decided to play the high school team on December 4. However, in spite of the reputations which some of the Varsity players had acquired, the high school beat them by a score of 9 to 7. The high school’s nine points were obtained by getting one touch back caused by a bad pass from the Varsity’s center, and the other points came as a result of a forward pass over the goal line. Maliesky kicked for the extra point. The Varsity got their points by a forward pass, Mathews to O’Brien. Matthews kicked for the extra point.

Page fifty-six THE RED AND GREEN THE FOOTBALL DINNER As in previous years, the football squad was given a dinner this year. Mr. Gribbin acted as toast-master. During the course of the banquet, Mr. Chapman presented his annual prize for excellence in football, scholarship and general conduct to Thomas Scott. The speakers of the evening included Mr. Chapman and Mr. Coles of the Board of Education; Mr. McGuckin and Mr. Martin of the faculty; William Doran. Theodore Maliesky, James McCarthy, Jack Matthews and Harold Perkins of the Varsity Club. Robert Coles, manager of the team and George Henderson, assistant manager, were called upon to say a few words. Then, on behalf of the team Frank Hartmeyer, captain, presented Mr. Gribbin and Mr. McGuckin with gifts in recognition of the work done for the team. William Gengerelly, captain-elect, was called upon to speak. Edward Maliesky, Marshall Eastment, Thomas Scott, Abraham Buxenbaum, John Izzo, LeRoy Dayton, and Donald McCahill were among the members of the team to be called on to speak. The members of the committee who took charge of preparing and serving the food were also asked to say a word or two.

Brennan Page fifty-seven = THE RED AND GREEN = BASEBALL OF ’27 The Baseball season this year has been rather an exciting one. The two upper classes have had the two stronger teams, while the Freshmen and the Sophomores have pressed them rather closely. These inter-class games have given Mr. McGuckin a pretty good line on the material available, for next year we hope to have a team in the county league. On March 20, the initial game was played. The game proved a victory for the Seniors over the Juniors with a score of 13 to 12. On the 30th the Freshmen followed the example set by the Seniors and defeated the Sophs. The score was Freshmen 9, Sophs 4. Thus the Freshmen and Seniors were tied for first place. On April 2. the Sophs conquered the Seniors by the score of 8 to 6. Then to even things up again, the Juniors swamped the Freshmen by the highest score of the season 24 to 3. On April 6, the Seniors, by a gallant rally, overcame a five run lead in the 7th inning to beat the Freshmen 16 to 15. Again, the Seniors went into first place in the league. On the following Friday the Juniors, due to Ginger’s fine pitching, shut out the Sophomores 8 to 0, leaving the Seniors and Juniors tied for first place. As the season went on, the Juniors would suddenly jump into first place only to be displaced by the Seniors. Up to the present time, with only two games more to play, the Juniors are in first place. The standing is as follows: Won Lost Juniors ................................ 6 2 Seniors ................................ 4 4 Sophomores ............................. 3 5 Freshmen ............................... 3 5 It seems very probable that the Seniors and Juniors will win these two games, thus leaving the standing as it is.

Are Coming Into Their Own Until this year the girls of our school have been given no chance to prove their athletic ability. Everything in this line had been “for boys only”. Perhaps it was thought that the “weaker sex” was not interested in sports. However, as soon as Miss Schmitz came as physical instructor she perceived that the girls were more than keen about athletics in any form. It was, of course, impossible for her to do much this year but she has shown the girls what pleasure can be derived from sports. Immediately after her arrival she introduced soccer as a starter, because this game requires little equipment. The girls enjoyed it; they no longer tried to si ip physical training class. This proves their interest in athletics—they are deserving of a chance. Why is it that some people think boys are the only creatures who should indulge in sports? It is an old idea which is passing slowly but surely. Glen Cove High no longer holds it. Next year, if present plans go through, we will have a girl’s varsity basketball team. Details have not been decided upon, “but where there is a will, there will be found a way”. Basketball will supply an interest other than study to the girls. This is only a beginning. Soon we may have a fully developed sport’s curriculum and therefore a high school, modern at least in its activities. Page fifty-nine THE RED AND GREEN BASKETBALL Because the Elks were kind enough to let us use their court, we were able to play basketball again this year. The team played nine games, but luck was against them for they were only successful in winning two. The line-up was as follows: Points scored Forward ... Hartmeyer 63 Forward ....
