CONSTANCE GAVEY . . . . . . in this year of their retirement, and to the entire teach- ing profession, we gratefully dedicate this 1955 edition of Arista. We feel that these teachers are symbolic of the devotion of teachers everywhere who have patiently in- stilled in us spiritual and moral values as well as academic knowledge. We humbly offer this dedication as an expres- sion of our appreciation. 5 A teacher affects eternity: he never can tell where his in- fluence will stop. Henry Adams Dr. John L.

Although we didn't come in such close contact with Drs. Miller and Wiles, they were busily at work at the Board of Education building plan- ning the future of the Great Neck schools. Great Neck faculty members again proved their athletic prowess as 'he men swamped the Boys’ Hi-Y in one of the more exciting basket- ball games of the 1954-55 season. Displaying amazing versatility were Messrs. Liquori, Touri, Turner, Hess and Sokol, to mention a few. Final score: 34-18!

Their opponents, the girl students, won a hard-fought basketball game by the close score of 32-29, and the red and gold pinneys were retired for another year, giving Miss “Baskets Botsch, Miss Kims Kuhl and Miss Lulu Stevens suf- ficient time to practice for next year’s game. Little did we know at the beginning of the school year that this would be the last time Mrs. Bowen, Mrs. DeFreitas, Mrs. Fogg and Mrs. Gavey would be teaching. We truly regret the retirement of these women, who have been a part of our school system for many years. 1954- 55 was also the last teaching year for Mr. Theophile Vincent, who became assistant to the principal in South Huntington High School.

After the eleventh grade boys and girls got used to the innovation of co-ed health classes, fascinating discussions ensued. In heated de- bates led by Mr. Nagel!, Mr. Eck, Mrs. Rapp and Mrs. Reading, juniors learned the whys and wherefores of dating.

Miss letty Lucent 16 In Memoriam IN the death of Marjorie R. Hubbard, for twenty-five years a loved and respected teacher, the students and faculty of Great Neck High School suffered a severe loss. She was one who loved beauty in art, in literature, and in music. Her inspired teaching sought to awaken that same love in each student who knew her whether in class, in home room, or in French Club. She will live in each of us as we come to understand more fully the beauty of living. 17 Dove Baker Vice-President Dud Danoff President Time goes, you say? Ah no! Alas, Time stays, we go! Dobson BEGINNING with the formal organization of the Class of 1955 during the early part of their sophomore year, and continuing through the climax of their high school careers, the Senior Prom, the 1955 graduates, guided patiently and understanding for three years by Miss Louise Stevens, compiled an outstanding record of individual and collective achievements. With the election of sophomore officers, the formation of a gov- erning body—the Class Council, and the ratification of their con- stitution, the members of the class of '55 had laid a solid foundation on which to build a promising future. In January, a large per- centage of the class flocked to the Boys’ Gym to participate in their first function, a party— January Jamboree. This was followed in the spring by an equally successful picnic, the Frankfurter Frolic. Sophomore journalism classes originated the idea which finally led to the establishment of a class newspaper, called the '55er. This was the first time such a project, originated in the sophomore year, successfully survived all three grades. As senior editors of the '55er, Margo Fleer and Sonny Albert published two interesting and widely read issues. The year 1953-54 saw the class making elaborate preparations for its January 23 Junior Prom. Under the supervision of co-chairman Lee Simes and Larry Shapiro, Hawaiian Interlude brought Waikiki to Great Neck. The crowning of the king and queen, Al Stern and Puffy Cahn, brought this gala evening to a fitting climax. In the spring the class again turned out en masse to attend an informal party-square dance, as well as the annual class picnic. 20 Returning from their summer vacations in the fall of 1954, the class of '55 found themselves the top men on the totem pole —full-fledged seniors at last. Losing no time, they elected as their leaders Dud Danoff, President; Dave Baker, Vice-President; Caryl Superior, Secretary, and Carlton Kwan, Treasurer. The first task the ambitious Senior Council undertook was to set a figure for class dues. After much deliberation the Council decided upon $5.00. Though the usual astonishment at “so great a sum resulted, over 98% of the class became active members. One of the first momentous events which highlighted the year was the announcement of class ranks. Thirty-seven seniors were mysteri- ously summoned into Mr. fucker’s office and were told that they were the top 10% of the class of 1955, the class with the highest aca- demic standing in Great Neck's history. Because of its large size, the class was unable to hold a senior breakfast. Compensating for this, the Class Party was moved forward from its original January date and was held in No- vember. About 270 seniors attended Turkey Time, which was co-chairmaned by Mike White- man and Martha Miller. A second class party, Farewell Frolic, under the chairmanship of Bobbie Flint and Jimmy Brown, was held on April 21 and proved equally as successful as the first function. Early in 1955 many small groups, supervised by Elaine Gordon and Mickey Siegel, were busily engaged in a traditional senior project— writing the Last Will and Testament.” The re- sults of this labor were published in the Guide Post, to be read by many amused seniors as well as a large majority of the students of the “lower grades. In early April the senior class officers and Miss Stevens announced the co-chairmen for the Senior Prom—Renee Stern and Paul Obre. From that time on, until May 21, seniors could be seen painting murals, posting posters, distributing tags and writing jingles in preparation for the long-awaited, much-anticipated. Senior Prom, Lost in the Stars. Then, in a happy whirl, came the Senior Din- ner, Jones Beach Picnic, and last-minute studying for exams and Regents. Whatever begins, also ends. —Seneca. So it was that, beginning as inexperienced sophomores, the Class of 1955 traveled the long road, sometimes winding and difficult—but more often wide and straight, and on June 24, 1955, graduated almost 100% of the 370 seniors, young adults ready to take their places as re- sponsible citizens.

Her tragic death in an automobile accident February 1 1, 1955, came as a great shock to the entire school. Evelyn's interest in people led her to active membership in TAPI and Red Cross Council. She enjoyed working for the school and could be found helping out in class functions and G. O. dances. Evelyn, who was a member of the Altman Fashion Board, had planned on a career in buying and merchandising. Vivacious, and full of life—this is the way Evelyn Weill will be remembered by her fellow classmates and friends. 52 National Honor Society Top 10%—Senior Class Sondra Albert ‘Richard Asch David Baker Carol Barnett Katherine Brummer ‘Andrea Buhler Joan Burke ‘Ruth Cahn Peter Clark Alice Cohen ‘Marguerite Comer ‘David Diamond Dudley Danoff ‘Karen Epstein Dorothy Freedman Martin Gideonse Elaine Gordon ‘Charles Harris Laurie Heller Julie Hirsh Rachel Jacoff Donald Kirk Alan Klein Jean Laise Hugh Musof Ruth Orenstein Peter Petrie Lucille Piloff Martha Proffitt Constance Redman Michael Richter Iris Rosenbaum Matthew Rubin Winifred Shore Cecily Simes Edward Slater Michael Steinberg ‘Alvin Stern Renee Stern Richard Taub Irene Weisberg Michael Whiteman Madeleine Adler Sondra Albert Helen Allen Sally Asher Andrea Buhler Joan Burke Ruth Cahn Gillian Clarke Alice Cohen Marguerite Comer Jacques des Granges David Diamond Karen Epstein Susanne Fischa Margo Fleer Robert Giarratano Martin Gideonse Charles Harris Rachel Jacoff Donald Kirk Jean Laise Robert Lawrence Michael Magzis Helen Mammen Paul Obre Ruth Orenstein Peter Petrie Constance Redman Michael Richter Barbara Sahn Winifred Shore Lewis Smoler Michael Steinberg Alvin Stern Renee Stern Alan Velie Michael Whiteman 53 Elected in their junior year.

December 9 found a multitude of juniors entering the Boys' Gym, which had been trans- formed into Wicasno Lodge,” the name of the class party. Under the able co-chairmanship of Mitch Davis and Leni Rosenberg, such activities as a balloon dance, question sing, and square dance were enjoyed. The Winter Carnival Snow Lodge entertainment was based on legends of the lodge. Judi Barry narrated these legends as dancers Mary Ann Mayer, Bobbie Litz, Caryl Sherman, Natalie Chinitz, Enid Feldman, and Highlighting the year was the wonderful suc- cess of the Junior Prom, held on February 12. Net, tulle, and lace were abundant as a ma- jority of the class attended Manhattan Towers.” Co-chairmen Ray Chrystal and Marie Haan wel- comed the crowd to the Boys' Gym, which was transformed into the New York skyline with moon and stars overhead. The soft lights and beautiful music played by John Clarke and his orchestra added much to the atmosphere of the affair. Climaxing the evening was the crowning of King and Queen Harry Logan and Sue Haller. Left—What did you say the name was . . .? Receiving line at Manhattan Towers. Right—Susie Haller and Harry Logan examine the key to Manhattan Towers, pre- sented to them at their coronation as King and Queen of the Junior Prom. Thekla Stein, and singers Roger Duhl, Dave Vaules, Jerry Dougherty, Barry Goldin, Ronnie Kursch, Judy Glantz and Linda Heller graphically translated them into dance and song. “Cool Copy,” the class quarterly newspaper, headed by co-editors-in-chief Gay Bamberger and Ann Doniger, brought the class up to date on all activities and news. At the end of the fall season a committee, the first of its kind, was formed to work out the problems of poor attendance at the Junior Prom. Among the several matters upon which the group, headed by David Baltimore, decided, was that boys would be allowed to wear dark suits instead of tuxedoes. After much anxious and somewhat impatient waiting the great day finally dawned—class jewelry had arrived—and juniors paraded through the halls proudly displaying their rings, pins and keys. To close the year's activities juniors flocked to the football field for the class picnic. Dressed in khakis and bermudas, everyone relaxed and enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Mr. Al Nagell, an understanding and able sponsor, led the junior class forward to a most successful year, and, with Captain Al at the helm, the Class of '56 is looking forward to smooth sailing on the open seas of their senior year. The roots of education are THE Class of 57 got off to a flying start with its fall election of officers. After a class meeting, during which the sophs met and listened to the candidates for various class offices, they went to the polls and elected Harold Zinn as their president, Sandy Goldberg as vice-presi- dent, Pat Slocum as secretary and Binnie Berlind as treasurer. Next on the agenda was the organization of their class council. In this project they were SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS� Left to right — P. Slocum, Secretory, Mr. Eck, Sponsor; B. Berlind, Treasurer; H.

After due preparation, their long-awaited class party was held on January 15. Ricky Glasser and Artie Cohen were chairmen of the soph's Rock and Roll party, which proved to be a big success. With rhythm and blues music playing in the background, the class was divided into two teams, the Blue and the Orange. Then followed several hilarious games and contests.

It took a class party to discover what exceptional mambo dancers were Harold Zinn, Lynn Goldberg, Steve Law- rence, Sue Osier and Bobby Cohen, as they did their interpretation of We can't do the Mambo. Al Tesoriero and Helen Litton were chosen king and queen of the sophomores after showing their large appetites in the pie-eating contest, one of the high spots of the evening. Eckstra! Eckstra! Get your Eckstra! This was the familiar cry that resounded throughout the sophomore homerooms in early February. It meant that the sopho- more paper was ready to be distributed to all active members of the class of '57. Since 93% of the class were full-fledged members, the paper, which was edited by The tall and short of it. Top: Kitties'’ perform at G. O. Dance. Bottom: Mess . . . nest-ce pas? Joyce Goodfriend and Mel Levine, was enjoyed by a large and appreciative group. With one class function successfully behind them, the sophomores, led by co-chairmen Ellen Kirschman and Bill Halter, made ambitious plans, worked industriously and then attended their an- nual picnic. Besides such varied outdoor sports as co-ed volleyball, softball and relays, there were, of course, refreshments. Especially outstanding in this third class func- tion was the inspired publicity campaign. The walls of the high school were filled with multi- colored posters urging all sophomores to attend Maze Daze. The sophomores can look back on their first year in the high school with satisfaction, and can look forward to the future, knowing the fun and excitement the next two years will hold for them. 57 Mott Rubin President BECAUSE we are living in a democratic society, and because our school wants to be ‘demo- cratic” too, a GENERAL ORGANIZATION (or just plain G.

Great strides were made by the G. O. this year in giving students more opportunities for using their own judgment to solve the many unavoidable problems that occur in school life. Hear Ye, Hear Ye, the Supreme Court is now in session! was uttered many times by Mike Whiteman, Chief Justice of the G. O. Su- preme Court. The court made rulings on the many questions that arose concerning the G. O. Constitution; it also passed an amendment to the constitution, forbidding any member of the G. O. Assembly to be also a justice in the Su- preme Court. The Associate Justices of the court this year were seniors Carl Schlanger and Charles Harris, juniors Kenny Haupt and Max Tannenbaum, and sophomores Mitch Reinis and Ellen Chisdes, who was secretary of the group. The Cafeteria Committee, headed by Dick Taub, set up a plan of student supervision in the cafeteria which will probably be used for many years to come. Cheating, an important subject in anyone's book, was discussed quite freely by the members of the Student-Faculty Committee. The very fact that teachers and pupils were able to sit down and talk about this controversial subject was quite an achievement. Booster,” who knew how to wail loudly every time the home team was losing (he got in a lot of lung practice this year), was introduced by Dotsy Freedman and her School Spirit Com- mittee. Prospective salesmen got very valuable expe- rience by trying to please the fussy Great Neck tastes at the G. O. Store. Three new babies were born to the Club Senate, a council composed of one student rep- resentative from each club in the school. These were: Syncope, an infant who has his diapers changed to hot trumpet and souped-up clarinet music; Twirler, a lovely little girl who has ex- cellent co-ordination for such a youngster; and Varsity, a young man who was proficient in all sports. The Club Senate also sponsored two major campaigns: one, at the beginning of the school year, called Join a Club Week, and the other, toward the middle of the year, when students tended to get a bit restless, entitled, “Stick to Your Club Week. Sixty dollars, the largest amount ever granted by the Club Senate, was issued this year to help sponsor the diversified activities of the different SUPREME COURT: First row, loft to right— E.

All in all, the Club Senate can be credited with making “one big, happy family” of the school instead of many separate individuals going their own separate ways. Headed by G. O. Veep Ruth Cahn, the As- sembly Planning Committee planned and made all arrangements for the many enjoyable as- semblies held during the year. Another very hard working permanent G. O. committee was the G. O. Publicity Committee, co-chairmaned by Laurie Heller and Judy Elgart. This group wrote the G. O. skit which launched the mem- bership drive, publicized the three G. O. dances and worked hand-in-hand with the Club Senate to make “Stick to Your Club Week” a success. The G. O. really had to bone up on their company manners this year, as they played host to two extremely interesting groups of visitors. In one, Great Neck High met Indonesia and the African Gold Coast face to face in the persons of Miss Tatty Larasati and Mr. Lebrecht Wilhelm Hesse. These two students, both under eighteen CLUB SENATE: First row, left to right— S. Albert, P. Cohn. Second row—B. Flint, M. Fleer, C. Wurst C. Pflugfelder, B. Fink, A. Darnell, P. Zulch, M.

They stood up very well through all the excitement and were really in- ducted into the American way of life. A second reception was given by our G. O. for the Nassau League of Student Councils on December 8. During this meeting it was de- cided that the constitution under which the group was operating was inadequate and a committee was formed to write a new con- stitution. Gymnasium walls, which usually view only cheering crowds and fast footwork on the bas- ketball courts, saw fancy stepping and a much quieter multitude three times this year as the lights were turned down low and mambos, lindys, charlestons and fox trots were executed on the “Great Neck High Paladium” floor. The two regular G. O. dances were “Indian Summer, co-chaired by Marion Shields and Mike Magzis and held on November 6, and “Hay There, Left to right—Jane Sodokoft, Karen Epstein, Co-Editors. which heralded spring in true Great Neck tra- dition. Held on April 16 and co-chaired by Carol Barnett and David Baltimore, this well- attended function was a great success. A charity dance, “Pot of Gold, for the benefit of the scholarship fund, was held on March 5, under the direction of Sally Asher and Barry Goldin, and created much excitement (who’s going to ASSEMBLY PLANNING COMMITTEE: First row, left to right —R.

The dances were received with far more enthusiasm this year than in many past years; and the turnout for each was very gratify- ing to the literally scores of students who worked on the many committees which go into making a successful dance. Many a time, a bleery-eyed decorations committee could be seen wiping paint from floors, walls, etc., at an hour when most students were having dinner or starting the night’s homework. After Great Neck students graduate, the re- maining undergraduates like to know what is happening to them in “the wide open world’’; and they in turn are interested to learn where their fellow classmates are and what they are doing, and also what has transpired “back at the home front.

The TWIRLERS was one of the groups which became clubs this years. As has been its custom for many years, Twirlers performed with the band during half-time intermissions at home foot- ball games, and marched in the annual Memo- rial Day Parade. The group also performed with the band in the PTA's Scholarship Fund Concert. Fulfilling a long-awaited dream, Coaches Ernie Clark, Milton Hess, and Mike Totura organized a Varsity Club this year.

The paper gathered this information through the use of question- naires sent to all the previous year’s graduates.

O. W. Holmes LONG before Great Neck students were buy- ing school supplies and comparing schedules, Arista Editor-in-Chief Wini Shore and some of the editors interrupted their summer vacations to start work on the yearbook. Because they jumped the gun, the 1955 Arista got off to a head start. A soft female voice speaking over the loud- speaker to urge everyone to bring his or her money for the first Arista down payment ushered in the Arista sales campaign for 1955. Business Manager Steve Witt with the aid of his two assistants. Iris Salzburg and Bobbie Greenberg, counted and recounted the money which had been collected by Arista salesmen, not believing that they had gone well over their sales goal of eight hundred copies. This ex- cellent total was mainly a result of the ambi- tious efforts of Leni Rosenberg and Bobbie Greenberg, co-chairmen of the Arista publicity campaign. Among their publicity stunts were Mystery Letters in the cafeteria and a series of P. A. announcements during homeroom pe- riods. The perennial sales slogan, As the sub- scriptions go up the prices go down, was again in effect. In addition, the master saleswomen, Adver- tising Managers Dotsy Freedman and Bobbie Sahn, along with their staff, sold over eleven hundred dollars worth of ads, a new record. With the encouraging knowledge that they had sufficient funds backing them, the various staffs found the added initiative to keep work- ing during many late afternoon sessions. Al- though the Arista officially met on Monday and Thursday afternoons, one could usually see the Bobbie Eisenberg, Bobbie Fink, Co-Production Editors 65 Bobbi Brizel, Copy Editor editors industriously working practically every day in the quiet solitude of Room 110. Mr. Booke, the yearbook copy sponsor, was always on hand to help solve the numerous problems which arose before the Arista finally went to press. The copy department was headed by Copy Editor Bobbie Brizel, whose job it was to edit all written material and to supervise the work- ings of all the sub-editors. This year the Ac- tivities and Classes Editorships were combined into one editorship. The responsibility for writing all copy concerning the three class groups, clubs, organizations and all activities except sports was very capably discharged by Sonny Albert. The other members of Bobbi Brizel's staff included Senior Editor Helen Mammen; Girls' Sports Editor Sally Asher; Boys' Sports Editors Tommy Leon and Al Velie; Feature Editor Margo Fleer; Identifications Editor Caryl Sherman; and Captions Editors Carol Tuman and Ann Doniger. Working behind the scenes with ruler and pencil in hand were Production Editors—the two Bobbies: Eisenberg and Fink. After chewing on their pencils almost as much as writing with them, these two girls, with the aid of the pub- lisher and business-production sponsor, Mr. Davis, produced their finished product, the final layout (otherwise known as the dummy”). Since in past years the entire production schedule of the yearbook had been needlessly held back because the dummy was late in being completed, an attempt was made this year to ARISTA SUB-EDITORS: First row, loft to right—B.

After all articles had been written, edited and proofread, Elaine Gordon, Typing Editor, along with her ambitious staff, filed their nails and began to exercise their typewriters in order to get the copy typed and to the publisher before the deadline. On the day that the Arista, 1955 edition, was distributed, everyone concerned with its successful emergence breathed a sign, partly of relief and partly of pleasure. After months of hard work and anxiety, mixed with a great deal of fun, the presses stood idle and the job was finished for another year. Arista's top brass try to find a solution for another last-minute problem. speed up the works. For this reason Bobbi Eisenberg was placed in charge of one phase of production, the layout of the book, while Bobbie Fink was in charge of the photography production. This plan proved highly successful as the publishing deadline was moved up from the end of May to the end of April. Gerry Finberg became a very sought-after young man as all the editors hounded him for pictures. As Photography Editor it was his re- sponsibility to be on the scene in order to record school functions, activities and all other interesting and memorable occurrences with his trusty camera.

Their industriousness and talent merited their first place rating by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. On Fridays, after all the material for the fol- lowing week's edition had been gathered, the editors burned the midnight oil in the deepest recesses of the Cage, in order to get the Guide Post to the printer, Griscome Publishers, by dead- line time. Toward the turn of the year a new editorship was created, namely, assistant to the editors. In this new capacity Charles Harris proved him- GUIDE POST EDITORIAL BOARD: Stated—Mr. J. Field, Spon- sor.

His duties, like those of the associate editors, included writing editorials, articles, and headlines, and helping all the sub- editors. Celebrating its twenty-fifth year of publica- tion, the Guide Post continued to fulfill its aim of keeping the student body informed of the everyday happenings in Great Neck High School.

Charlotte was the recipient of a bronze medal for distinguished reporting awarded by News- day. Assistant news editor Reuben Mark took care of the third page, which consisted of a combination of news and feature articles. Mike Magzis and Don Spiegelman described all the happenings in sports, while the exchange department was in the hands of Meg Streitfeld. Original art work and cartoons done by students This year brought several new features to the Guide Post. Glossy paper was used from Sep- tember through December, to the delight of the school; but unfortunately, due to a lack of funds, caused mainly by a drop in the number of ad- vertisers, the Guide Post was forced to return to the traditional pulp type paper. Not conforming to the policy that “no news is good news, reporters were seen scurrying through the nooks and crannies of the school with pads and pencils clenched in their hands, as they searched for printable material. “Quip- lets, the humor column which appeared fre- quently on the feature page, amused every one with its clever comments on happenings around the building.

AMIDST the hustle and bustle of Room 114, headquarters of JUNIOR PLAYERS activities, there was one figure who offered instruction, gave suggestions, and kept order in general. This person, Mr. Bernard Boressoff, sponsored the club which had the largest active member- ship of any school organization. This group of budding actors and actresses, directors, make-up artists and set designers, in an election late last spring, chose David Dia- play was Al Ulick, as Mr. Jordan, the head angel. To aid its purpose of promoting student in- terest in all phases of the theater, the club sponsored trips to the theater for its members. Tickets were secured for “The Caine Mutiny Court Martial” as well as other Broadway shows. Included in the organization’s ambitious plans for the year were many club programs. Under the direction of various students, sections of 70 such plays as “The Valiant ’ “The Children s Hour ’ “Tea and Sympathy ’ and “Aria de Capo were presented at club meetings for the entertainment of members of Junior Players as well as all other interested spectators. The annual children’s program, “Simple Si- JUNIOR PLAYERS OFFICERS: First row, left to right—0. Dia- mond, Pres.; L. Nylond, Sec’y; I. Heller, Recording Sec'y; K. Epstein, Vice-Pres.; M. Richter, Business Manager. student directors Philip Mandelker and David Diamond selected Carol Berk, Bob Schwartz, Alan Ulick, Bob Gurfein and David Baker for the leading dramatic and singing roles, and Julie Hirsh and Irene Weisberg as the principal dancers. Watching the tryouts for the various parts became a popular pastime for many mem- bers of the student body. The ultimate goal of an active Junior Player is to be admitted to THESPIANS. This elite group was composed of the top actors, directors, stage hands, and the best of the make-up and art crews. Officers of Thespians for the past year were: President Bob Gurfein; Vice-President, Julie Hirsh; Secretary, Carole Pflugfelder; and Treas- urer, Dick Asch. Thespians are part of the National Dramatic Honor Society, and it was through this group that interest in the theater has been expanded among Great Neck students. Besides taking nu- merous trips into New York to see current Broad- way shows, the energetic Thespians produced the G. O. skit. “Androcles and the Lion” was also produced by the group for presentation in an exchange assembly program. mon, directed by David Baltimore and Bob Gurfein, was presented in February as part of the children’s entertainment series. Starring in the production were Alan Ulick, Sue Levin, Dick Asch, and Judy Eichler. Make-up crew, headed by Ruth Orenstein and Renee Stern, gave members an opportunity to learn and practice various stage make-up skills. The art and stage crews, sponsored by Mr. Rice, designed, constructed, and painted sets and took care of all stage and lighting problems. Cos- tumes were supervised by Mrs. Ward. After much discussion and elimination of pos- sible musical shows, “Finian’s Rainbow” was chosen as the spring presentation: a combination dramatic, music, and dance department produc- tion. Mr. Henry Borovicka, substituting for Mr. Boressoff during the latter’s illness, directed the play.

Here, the ORCHESTRA provided an opportunity for students to study, and pre- pare for performance, orchestral music of real value; works of prominent composers of the classical, romantic, and modern schools were represented in their repertoire. Beethoven’s “Piano Concerto Number 3 in C Minor” and “At Christmastide” were among the selections presented by the orchestra at the an- nual Christmas program. Later in the year the Music is well said to be the speech of angels. Carlyle THREE B's: Kneeling, left to right—J. Morton, J. Buob, F. Bock, M. Parada. First row—B. Horris, K. Brameld, B.

Thomson DURING the Yuletide season, SENIOR A CAP- PELLA really helped to spread the Christmas spirit by serenading guests in the lobby of the Hotel Commodore, singing cheery carols to the home-going crowds at Grand Central Station, and vocalizing through the school corridors on the last day of the old (1954) school year. The spring musical, Finian's Rainbow, could not have been such a sparkling success without the beautiful songs and choral accompaniment provided by members of this choir. The group's songs were also heard at the United Nations assembly; and in the spring they participated in the All-School Music Festival. This year's Senior A Cappella choir was the largest in the history of the school. These singers, who were largely the most experienced in the school, had a genuine interest in music and con- tributed much towards the enjoyment and enter- tainment of the rest of the student body. On the afternoon of March 31 and on the evenings of April 1 and 2, the drama and dance departments combined with the orchestra and glee clubs to bring the Broadway hit, “Finian's Rainbow, to the stage of the high The combined Sophomore and Junior choruses light up their Christmas tree as a finale to the annual program. 75 school. As Sharon McLonergan, Carol Berk was the picture of a pretty young Irish colleen, while Bob Schwartz, as Woody, was a suitable match for any girl. Finian McLonergan, played by Al Ulick, was completely lovable, and Bob Gurfein's portrayal of Og, the leprechaun, was “some- thing sort of grandish. As the mean and crafty Senator Rawkins, Dave Baker was a real “fili- bustering senator; while Paul Rochlin, playing the Senator's stooge, was a fitting companion. Susan, Woody's mute sister who did foot talk instead of talk talk, played on alternate nights by Julie Hirsh and Irene Weisberg, danced grace- fully through the part. The three Necessity Girls,” Natalie Chinitz, Carol Tuman, and Pat Orange, stopped the show with their number. The Begat, sung by Dave Baker and Gospeleers Dick Knecht, Lucky Christov and Chuck Dribben was another show stopper. The stage production was directed by Mr. Henry Borovicka. Music was directed by Mr. Ormsby, choreography by Miss Staat, and or- chestra by Mr. Koehler. Mr. Bernard Boressoff, owing to illness, acted in an advisory capacity. Production assistance was provided by members of Junior Players; student directors were Philip Mandelker and David Diamond, assisted by Sue Shapley and Gay Bamberger. “. . .

Appleton STARTING promptly at 2:15 there was a steady flow of starving humanity (commonly known as students) rushing into the cafeteria, heading straight to the snack bar, and making up dili- gently for the hour they had not eaten since lunch. The snack bar was the relief station of Great Neck High, and the angels of mercy behind the counter were Hi-Y girls. Not only did they en- dure patiently the inspection of every item of nourishment before a sale was made, but they also put all the profits into the cash register for scholarships for two deserving Hi-Y girls. Early the next morning, these same girls, or fellow Hi-Y members, could be found opening lockers for people who had come to school still asleep only to find they had left their keys at home. During the day, other Hi-Y girls sat at the main hall desk and acted as girl-guides for con- fused guests. At night the GIRLS’ HI-Y got all dressed up and acted as ushers at the Christmas and other programs. Besides the activities mentioned above, the girls, all above average scholastically, worked in the Main and Guidance offices, and kept the calendar in the front hall up to date. They also decorated the Christmas tree, served at the P. T. A. open house, and worked at the North Shore Hospital Fair. Service with a smile!

Here appeared a line of stu- dents chattering madly about little green pens, trigonometry books, and genuine glass rings which somehow managed to go astray when they weren't being watched. If a person really had good eyesight, he probably also could dis- tinguish a Hi-Y boy peering through a narrow slit in the door of the Lost and Found room, trying to satisfy all of his patrons. This was just one of the many services which the BOYS' HI-Y performed this year for Great Neck High School. Keeping over-enthusiastic fans off the playing area of the football field while the games were in progress was another. The Hi-Y also ushered at basketball games and made extremely at- tractive Hat Check Boys at the G. O. Dances. Late in January the club sponsored a Hi-Y vs. Faculty basketball game for the benefit of the scholarship fund. Playing to a capacity audience, the Hi-Y boys put up a good fight before suc- cumbing to the more experienced (and taller) educators. One of the three service groups in the school, the Boys' Hi-Y required a “B average of all its twenty-six members. However, the chief qualifi- cation was an eagerness to serve the school and the community. Mr. Sokol shepherded the flock whose officers were: Alvin Stern, President; Hugh Musof, Vice-President; Larry Shapiro, Secretary; Dave David, Treasurer; Bob Henry, Chaplain; and Mark Silverman, Sergeant at Arms.

Helping to as- semble and put up the signs for the Community Chest and the Christmas decorations, which so brightened our town, was another of the Key Club's worthy services. However, the Club's activities were not con- centrated entirely on the community. Their work within the school was exceptionally important as it helped a great deal in raising spirits which often were heavily burdened by deadlines, con- jugations, research papers, translations and Al Klein and Mike White- man check Key Club plans.

Unlocking such doors as cold and hunger set up against the needy was one of the KEY CLUB'S most rewarding jobs. It was this group of boys, sponsored by Mr. Turner, and under the auspices of the Kiwanis Club, who, through distribution of Thanksgiving baskets, made it possible for many needy people of this area to enjoy a holiday which otherwise would have passed bleakly and without cheer. As a result of this club's ambitious work in helping to build carnival booths, the Visiting Nurses Association was able, through the extra funds earned, to help many more sick. mathematical illogic. Key Club members were responsible for escorting our illustrious papier mache giraffe, Blazer II, which added so much personality to our home football games as it stood watching the proceedings. The club also built and operated the scoreboard at the Junior High School field; and in addition, operated the scoreboard and ushered at home basketball games. The Key Club was a member of the Service Club Council, formed by the three service or- ganizations to discuss mutual problems. 79 RED CROSS: First row, loft to right—M. Burke, D. Rosen- bloom, L.

Pliny MANY important duties of the HEALTH OF- FICE are entrusted to a number of volun- teer girls who gave up their study halls in order to help Mrs. Wright, the school nurse. These in- dustrious girls ran errands; delivered messages; answered and made phone calls in the health office; corrected, checked and filed the hearing tests which everyone took during the year; and helped with the chest X-Rays. Many worthy charitable projects were under- taken and completed by the RED CROSS CLUB, Great Neck High School’s chapter of the Na- tional Junior Red Cross. Under the leadership of sponsors Miss Colston and Mrs. Davis, and Presi- dent Ruth Orenstein, the Red Cross filled a large number of Christmas boxes which were sent to veterans’ hospitals. The group also knitted af- gans, sent clothing packages to needy people overseas, collected money for use in medical assistance for students of the school who were not able to pay for it, and conducted the annual Red Cross membership drive.

Among the various sub-committees were groups responsible for the publication of the annual student handbook, the circulation of information about colleges through films and bulletins, the making of arrangements for follow-up studies of the previous year's graduates, the scheduling of college and vocational conferences, and the posting of job information on the Guidance bul- letin board in the main hall. The publicity sub- committee publicized these activities and en- couraged the participation of the entire student body in these worthwhile activities. The YOUTH CENTER was always open for the leisure time recreation and enjoyment of stu- dents. Under the direction of Mr. Hallahan, the Center featured dances, movies, dancing and Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others.

A vital branch of the Greeters, the Plan- ning Committee, was composed of two repre- sentatives from each grade. This year’s mem- bers were: seniors—Lucille Piloff and Martin Gideonse; juniors—David David and Betty Ap- pel, who were president and vice-president of the group; and sophomores Jackie Grossman and John Bryson.

Everyone joined in playing French games and singing French songs. To illustrate special events, skits were presented. Highlights of the year included the Christmas program, during which the story of Christmas was told, carols were sung and gifts were given to the members by Pere Noel, alias Mr. Vincent. A French marionette show featuring France’s answer to our “Punch”— “Guingol”—was presented at a subsequent meeting. Kings and knights fought bravely for their queens on battlefields of red and black every other Thursday afternoon. However, the conflict was a friendly one, for the knights were of wood, the battlefield of cardboard, and the masterminds of war were none other than mem- bers of the CHESS CLUB engaged in a tourna- ment. Organized this year under the sponsorship of Miss Gluckstadt, EL CLUB ESPAGNOL (Spanish Club) provided an outlet for those students who wished to further their knowledge of Spanish culture. All second and third year Spanish stu- dents and those first year students maintaining “A” or “B” averages were invited to join the club. With the election of President Peter Petrie; Vice-President Daniel Camejo; Secretary Eleanor Sherr; and Treasurer Barry Bell, the club's ac- tivities were under way. Programs conducted in Spanish and English, including a Christmas party, and a Latin American dance exhibition, were presented at the meetings.

Pope FOR the twenty-fourth consecutive year the AGASSIZ CLUB, which is the oldest club in continual existence in the school, has encour- aged and facilitated the science projects of its members. This group has provided a clearing house and meeting place for students who are interested in science above and beyond the text- book level. A member of the Science Clubs of America, Agassiz annually sponsors the Westing- house Science Talent Search and over the years has had several winners. This year members participated in such activities as field trips, plant and animal raising, dissections, and microscopy, as well as viewing many movies on various as- pects of science. Newly organized this year, the CAMERA SERV- ICE has helped greatly in the improvement of audio-visual services in the school.

Complete pho- tographic facilities—cameras, darkroom, proc- essing and developing materials—were available for the use of these volunteers. After securing their amateur radio operator’s license from the Federal Communications Com- mission, members of the ELECTRONICS CLUB set up amateur radio station K2GKP and established contact with many other amateur radio oper- ators. Meeting every fourth Friday, the group’s aim was to promote interest in and knowledge of electronics and amateur radio. During these meetings demonstrations were given of transmit- ters, oscilloscopes, and various other electronic equipment; morse code records were played; broadcasts were made over Station K2GKP; and individual projects, such as the building of one and two-tube radios, were pursued. The CHEMISTRY CLUB held special interest for those students who desired to supplement class instruction. Sponsored by Mr. Snyder and led by President Bob Lawrence, Vice-President Peter Collins, and Secretary-Treasurer Margarette Ryan, the club held meetings every first and third Monday. During these sessions greater interest in chemistry was stimulated by means of many types of experiments and demonstrations. Interesting phases of mathematics and geom- etry which are beyond the scope of regular classroom work were explored in detail during the meetings of the MATH CLUB. Talks were given concerning such topics as astronomy, 3-D graphs, and analytic geometry; a quiz question sheet was prepared for the members’ enjoy- Harry Sauberman . .

Colvin chapter of the FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA was of special interest to students who hope to become teachers. Panels on the education of different countries as viewed by the members themselves, guest speakers who were well versed on education, films, and field trips to other schools were included in the pro- grams of this club, which was sponsored by Mrs. Frieda Thompson.

The INTER-FAITH YOUTH FELLOWSHIP met at the Youth Center to discuss topics, especially problems, which were of general interest to teen- agers. This year also saw the formation of SYNCOPE. Originally intended as a club for musicians who were interested in jazz, the club was immediately enlarged in scope to include anyone who appre- ciated jazz and wished to learn more about it.

Don Silpe scores for Great Neck track team with Mike Rochman and Frank Ka- mer close behind. THE Great Neck TRACK team extended its dual meet streak to twenty wins and captured its fourth straight North Shore Crown in a season (1953-54) that saw many old records tumble. Although the Blazers overwhelmed their competi- tors throughout the season, they lost their first Port Invitation meet in six years. Eino Keerd was the only Great Neck man to reach the N. Y. State Championships. The brawny Blazer took second place in the shotput. Mike Rochman headed Great Neck’s contin- gent of dashmen and ultimately represented the Orange and Blue in intra-county competition. Seniors John Hanne and Al Perlman proved a formidable team of quarter milers. Sophomore flash Bob Gould and Jim Secord were Great Neck’s best in the 880 with Junior Joe Friedberg close up behind. Milers Floyd Mann and Steve Witt led Great Neck’s distance team. Mike Schlanger came along well in the hurdles and by the end of the season was a power on the North Shore. The big guns of the Blazer attack were the weight men Eino Keerd, John Schnei- der, Tony Tolentino and Mark Silverman. Val Giroux again ranked with the Island’s best pole vaulters and won his event at the Port Invitations. Rounding out the Great Neck attack were sophs Dick Petrie and Neil Morgan, who scored heavily for the Blazers in the high jump and broad jump. Great Neck’s strength lay in the fact that they had solid performers in every event, and the co- ordinated efforts of these athletes made the Blazers well-nigh unbeatable. The race is to the swift.

Bible The VARSITY TENNIS team completed a highly successful season, even though Great Neck’s skein of five consecutive NSAL tennis champion- ships was broken. The netmen, runners-up to undefeated Garden City, compiled an excellent record of twelve wins and two losses, both Blazer setbacks being in- flicted by the Trojans. The team’s four returning lettermen, Mike Phillips, Barry Bell, George Pinsley and Bob Rothman, were supplemented with sophomores Bob Lande, Karl Seitz, and Jack Harris. Sub- stitutes Hal Lazarus and Ding Andres also saw much action in the constantly shifting lineup. The climax of the season arrived prematurely when the Blazers faced Garden City with more than half of their games yet to be played. A win would have knotted the league lead and forced a playoff. Coach Theirgard shrewdly placed his two top men, Phillips and Pinsley, in doubles, assuring two of the necessary five points. He hoped that one of his singles players could add the deciding tally. Great Neck’s fate lay in the racket of co-captain Barry Bell, who time and again almost pulled his match out of Barry Bell, Captain. 93 No stranger in the crowd could doubt twas Casey at the bat. Thayer Batter up! As Larry Shapiro prepares for a Great Neck pitch. the fire. Bell finally succumbed in a heartbreaking loss in two protracted sets: 9-7, 8-6. Despite the fact that over half the schedule remained for both teams, the subsequent games were anticlimatic , as Garden City easily won their remaining matches for the North Shore crown.

Dan Geoly, who tossed six wins and two losses, was the Blazer’s top hurler. Also a star performer was Ken Benjamin, now a Yankee hopeful, who turned in a fine no-hit performance against Bayside, as well as a few one-hitters. His final mark was four wins and three setbacks. Bullpen Baum’s late inning re- lief work saved many a contest for the Orange and Blue. Great Neck's fielding ability proved to be a deciding factor in their winning record. Second baseman Peyton MacDonald led the team in this department, muffing only two of seventeen chances. Vin Gebhard was a dependable first sacker. Alvin Stern and Hugh Musof capably guarded the left side of the Blazer infield. If there was a deficiency any place it was in the hitting of the club. In league play, Payton MacDonald was the only player to bat over .300. The slugging second baseman led the team with a .323 average. One quality of the ’54 Blazers that made them the scourge of rival catchers was their sped. The team stole thirty-nine bases during the year for an average of three per game. Vin Gebhard led the squad with twelve thefts. Other dangerous men on the bases were Al Stern, Dick Wolf, and MacDonald, who had nine, eight and six thefts respectively. The 1954 Great Neck FOOTBALL campaign was launched with a promising triumph over Jim Steelman Oceanside, but it was evident that dark days lay ahead for the Blazers after their crippling encounter with Baldwin, last year’s Nassau Triple A champions. The injury-riddled gridmen never quite regained their old form and grew steadily weaker until they were unmercifully put to death by Lawrence, 53-0. In the first game Great Neck whipped Ocean- side 27-6. A small but fast line, which tore the Sailor's defense to shreds, was the Blazer’s salient point. Halfback Frank Kamer led the run- ning attack, gaining seventy yards and scoring twice. The Great Neck-Baldwin game proved to be the crux of the season for both teams. On the strength of twenty-one points scored in the first period the Golden Wave was able to absorb a Great Neck rally and win 27-19. Although Bald- win salvaged the game, they did so at the ex- pense of several of their players, and they never fully recovered from what they called their roughest game in three years. Great Neck was still feeling the effects of its fray with Baldwin when they met Mineola. The running of fullback Jim Tarsy was the only bright spot in the 24-0 shellacking. A fluke touchdown on the opening kickoff plus a successful conversion gave visiting South Side a slim 7-6 victory over the Blazers. Great Neck pushed the visitors all over the field, gaining three times the yardage they did. The locals played much of the game in South Side territory, but seemed to tense up as they neared the goal 95 Do not turn back when you are just at the goal. Publius Syrus “Hit hard, hit fast, hit often, was the motto of our football team as they battle through a tough game. Frank Kamer looks savage, Dave Baker appears more bewildered than anything else and Bill Brad- ley listens intently as Coach Totura lets off steam after a hard-fought game. Look this one up in Who's Who? line. The Great Neck touchdown came on a flat pass from Vin Gebhard to Hugh Musof. Great Neck played sporadically against Gar- den City, but Anally succumbed to a 14-6 count. Barry Bloomgarden and Steve Offerman were outstanding for the locals on defense, and Carl- ton Kwan led the offensive line. Great Neck held Glen Cove for the first half, but crumbled in the second stanza. The Covers released their notorious aerial attack to defeat the Blazers by the score of 12-25. The Port Washington game proved to be one quarter too long. The score at the three quarters mark was 7-7, but the Blue and White pushed over twenty-six points in the last period to tri- umph 33-7. The Lawrence encounter was a nightmare. Outclassed and injured (six starters were on the sidelines) the Orange and Blue completely folded. Lawrence scored at will, rolling up a count of 53-0. Great Neck's trouble stemmed from the crip- pling Baldwin contest. The Blazers were certainly not lacking talent. Jim Tarsy and Frank Kamer proved themselves good running backs, Steve Offerman was one of the top defensive men in the county, and Andy Johnson was selected as first string end on the New York Daily News All Long Island Team.

The key to success was their fine team work and evenly distributed talent. Evidence of this lay in the fact that only two members of this year’s championship squad were selected for All-Scholastic honors. Great Neck rolled up seven straight victories before they were subdued by Westbury to the tune of 1-0. The loss can be attributed not only because four Blazer goals were called back, but also because forward “Lucky Christov suffered a severe head injury. His loss not only handi- capped the team for that game, but also for the entire season. The following week, riddled with injuries, the Blazers met a powerful Garden City eleven. Frank Phillips and Tommy Reichman, because of previous injuries, were playing for the first time in two weeks, and Pete Faith, who had sus- tained a previous ankle injury, was compelled to play owing to the team’s lack of depth. As a result. Great Neck did very well in holding the Trojans to a tie. VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM: First row, loft to right—G. Kurtz, E. Gatti. D. David, C. Kwon. Second row— R. Cohen, J. Miller, B.

The Cliffmen thor- oughly trounced the locals, 3-0. The Booters, however, sloughed off the ill- effects of their previous encounter, and emerged victorious from their two remaining games to insure them of the title. One week later, Great Neck journeyed to Hicksville to meet a powerful Sewanhaka crew. Playing inspired ball, the Blazers completely be- fuddled the opposition by their overpowering play, and when the final whistle sounded, the score read 2 for Great Neck, 0 for Sewanhaka. Thus ended a highly successful season in which the Orange and Blue, despite many handicaps, was able to return the county crown to Great Neck, after its loss four years ago. The Great Neck JUNIOR VARSITY SOCCER team put together a string of eight consecutive victories in compiling an excellent 10-1-1 record for the season. The hooter's lone loss was in- flicted late in the season by Sea Cliff, whom the Blazers had beaten in an earlier encounter. The strong point of the jayvee attack was its high scoring offense. Forward Dick Tannenbaum led the line, with much assistance from wings Bob Elbee and Dave Levine. Fullback Charlie Bana- ciski and halfback Hank Stevens spearheaded Richie Dixon carries the Great Neck ball, as Jim Tarsy cheers from the sidelines. Jimmy Tarsy blasts through opposition only to head straight into the path of an amiable-look- ing character known in better circles as the other team. the virtually airtight Blazer defense which lim- ited rivals to an average of less than a goal a game. Opening their campaign with a smashing 30- 0 victory over Oceanside, the Great Neck J. V. FOOTBALL team went on to compile an impres- sive record of six wins, one loss and one tie, the only blemish being a 6-0 loss to a well-rounded Mineola squad. The Blazers chalked up a seasonal total of 120 points in comparison to a mere thirty-six points for the opposition. Leading ground gain- ers for the Orange and Blue were backfield men Bill Kolb, Mitch Reinis, and Bob Cohen, who barreled their way through the opposing line for the needed yardage. Two heads are better than one. Proverb Captain Phil Settel and Max Rousier seem to get a kick out of playing.

After being edged out by Hicksville in the season's BASKETBALL opener 51-48, the Blazers trounced Bethpage High School 61-42 to break an eighteen game losing streak that extended over three seasons. Great Neck next dropped a close 52-45 decision to Port Washington in a seesaw game in which the lead changed hands six times. Steve Gumenick and Alvin Stern were outstanding for the locals. Three days later Barry Goldin poured in eighteen points as the Blazers easily whipped Westbury 58-36. Great Neck then lost nine straight games before eking out a non-league overtime victory over Roslyn. After this encounter the Blazer offense crumbled. While the ballplayers were turning in fine indi- vidual performances, the team did not coordi- nate as a unit. Part of the Blazer's troubles were the injuries which curtailed the effectiveness of Al Stern, Mark Silverman, Bob Stern and Bill Rumm, and put Jerry Dougherty out for the sea- son. Since the juniors on this year’s squad saw plenty of action, the outlook for next year's team is bright. Coach Milenko will have an ex- perienced squad who will undoubtedly prove a keen match for their rivals. Participating in an extremely competitive league, the Great Neck J. V. BASKETBALL team shook off the effects of a midseason slump and fought their way to a triple tie for first place with Garden City and Mineola. The Blazers dropped their first encounter with Hicksville, and then went on to take their next seven games. Great Neck climaxed the season on a triumphal note by rolling up seventy-five points against a cagey Cover crew. Jack Harris and Harold Zinn were high scorers with thirty-one and thirty points respectively. Harris set a scoring record notching 312 points for a game average of 20.8.

For the first time in ten years, Great Neck established a WRESTLING team, which, despite a weak showing, did rather well considering its lack of experience. Under the excellent tutelage of Coach Milton Hess, the grapplers were able to compile a record of one win, one tie, and three losses. Blazer defeats came at the hands of Beth- page, Manhasset, and Westbury, schools that have had previous wrestling experience. Out- standing “bone benders” were Edward Slater, Dave Bloomfield, Ken Cornwell, and Mort Schweiger. Slater, Schweiger, and Bloomfield placed in the North Shore Wrestling Champion- ships, and subsequently won admission to the Mepham Invitations. Though new to the sport, the matmen distin- guished themselves this past season and gave promise of being contenders next year.

Steve Witt, Joe Friedberg, and Al Klein worked ardu- ously and by the end of the season they were among the North Shore's top men. Montaigne Perhaps the greatest foe Coach Henry Kaftel's charges faced was injury. It was that, more than any other factor, that punctured the Blazers' efficiency.

From the first football game to the last basketball game, both groups proved themselves to be “up to the mark always set by Great Neck's excellent cheerleaders, since each cheerleader practiced for weeks in advance of the football and basket- ball seasons. Teaching the spectators the various cheers and songs that encouraged the teams toward victory was the job of Varsity captain Rona Lif- shey, and Junior Varsity captain Priscilla Willis, as well as the job of keeping the group on Rona Lifshey, Captain its toes.

Barbaro Flint, Vice-President Reason and calm judgment, the qualities specially belonging to a leader. Tacitus The GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION, which is the guiding light of the girls’ sports program, accomplished many things this year. Piloted by President Rona Lifshey, Vice-President Barbara Flint, Secretary Martha Proffitt, Treasurer Caryl Superior, and the G. A. A. Council, the program for this year included a Sports Day which was held in the spring. In this event, several other schools participated. The G. A. A. Party was held in March, at which time the girls partici- pated in various competitive activities such as human croquet and volleyball. It was an hilarious evening for all concerned. Finally, the regular behind-the-scenes managing of after-school activities, the point system and awards, and interscholastic games continued with the invaluable aid of the heads of the various sports and activities. Hockey, the main fall sport, was headed by Patti Allen. Winter pro- vided many sports, including volleyball, headed by Sue Shapley and Lynne MacArthur, basketball led by Irene Weisberg and Sue Martha Proffitt, Secretary Caryl Superior, Treasurer G. A. A.

In both fall and spring, the girls participated in bad- minton, headed by Ann Dobson, tennis, led by Karen Epstein and Betsy Uchitelle, and archery, with its leader, Phyllis Getz. During the entire year MODERN DANCE was led by Julie Hirsch, leaders’ Corps by Lee Simes, Cheerleaders by Rona Lifshey and J. V. Cheerleaders by Pris- cilla Willis. Sophomores in the Council included Marjorie Mandell, head of hockey, Linda Klaber, leader of badminton, and Evelyn Feminella, head of volleyball. met every other Friday. The vice-president was Alice Darnell; the secretary-treasurer, Alice Cohen. Miss Doris Botsch ably sponsored the group. Heads of BOWLING Meg Streitfeld and Mimi Maish saw the beginning, intermediate, and ad- vanced groups through another very successful season. With Meg Streitfeld as its captain, the Blazette team not only bowled against the boys' bowling team, but also against such schools as Manhasset, Garden City and Valley Stream. The group was sponsored by Miss Kuhl. Once again the Long Island Interschool Field Hockey Tournament highlighed the season of the Honor team.

These girls are chosen for their ability to lead and organize athletic activities, as well as for their good scholastic records. Tryouts are held, at which applicants must demonstrate a sports tech- nique to the entire Leaders’ Corps. Once elected, it is the responsibility of each girl to assist in the instruction of various sports, and above all, to encourage good sportsmanship. This year, Lee Simes was president of the group which Salisbury Park. Great Neck placed second in all three divisions: attack, defense, and goalie. Expert coaching by two members of the Irish Touring Team was another feature of the 1954 season, and that the girls profited by the ses- sion was evidenced by their final over-all record of eight wins, three losses and one tie. Four of the triumphs belong to the junior and senior class teams, and the remaining four were split evenly between the Honor and the Reserve teams.

Plotzke ley, volleyball was one of the bright spots in the girls' sports department. The Honor and Re- serve teams emerged victorious from all encoun- ters, and the sophmore, junior and senior class teams almost tied that record, losing only one game. The girls' gym classes again met with the boys for some stiff competition. Though if is difficult to declare a winner, it can certainly be said that both sides had a lot of fun. The intramural TENNIS group, under the su- pervision of Miss Kuhl, had a very successful fall season. The girls participated in a ladder tour- nament at Memorial Field, with Karen Epstein acting as a student organizer and manager. Some of the more experienced players competed against other schools, and the Great Neck net- ters came out quite high in the win bracket. They played against many different schools, including Friends' Academy, Valley Stream, Mepham, and Manhasset, all of which were good competition for the excellent team. The beginning, intermediate, and advanced ARCHERY groups were guided through the fall and spring seasons by Phyllis Getz, head of archery, and Miss Kuhl, the sponsor. During these two seasons, the girls not only participated in their regular ladder tournament, but also in several inter-scholastic competitions. In these matches they shot against such schools as Man- hasset, Friends' Academy, Mepham and Valley Stream. There were several occasions when the boys’ archery group combined with the girls’ archery group for a pleasant afternoon of archery practice. Combining skill and teamwork the Blazette BASKETBALL teams won a majority of their inter- scholastic games last winter. Port Washington, Friends' Academy, Garden City, and Manhasset were the Honor and Reserve teams' opponents, while the three class teams battled against West Hempstead and Sewanhaka. Under the direc- tion of managers Irene Weisberg and Sue Hal- ler, over fifty girls participated in interscholastic competition, and many more took an active part in intramurals. The annual student-faculty game climaxed the basketball season, as the Reserve team edged out the Honor team in the closest game of the year to earn the right to compete against the faculty. Proving their superiority, the Reserves conquered them, though the faculty put up a good fight. The final score was 32 to 29, symbolizing the difficult battle. The capable spon- sor of the basketball season was Miss Kurl. ICE SKATING, a winter intramural activity, was held weekly at the Great Neck Ice Skating Rink. It was under the sponsorship of Mrs. Ruth Rapp and was headed this year by Marie Haan and her able assistant, Lorna Lobley. Many girls who were beginners or intermediate skaters were capably taught new techniques by those who were more advanced in the more difficult skills of ice skating. Under the leadership of Julie Hirsh, and stu- dent directors Irene Weisberg and Virginia Brown, the MODERN DANCE CLUB has become, in its first year, one of the most active of our school's clubs. A little rah rah in dance form is displayed by Chattanooga shoe shine girls practice their pro- the girls as they advertise boosting sports. fession with a mambo beat during the Modern Dance assembly. Dancing is the loftiest, the most moving, the most beautiful of the arts . . . Havelock Ellis The big event for club members was their participation in “Finian's Rainbow, which gave them a chance to demonstrate the techniques that they had learned throughout the year. Miss Lois Stoat, club sponsor, advised and aided the girls in their performances. Although most of the Modern Dance Club's time is devoted to participative dancing, much knowledge can be gained by observing others; thus the club made a trip to New York to see the Bennington College dancers. They profited much from observing this capable and experi- enced group. At club meetings various programs related to the techniques of modern dance were organized by the girls. Included in these was a program given by modern dance specialists. The club again profited by observation. The combined efforts of the Camera Club and Modern Dance Club provided a pictorial diary of this year's activities, to use as a guide for the Modern Dance Club of 1955-56. The advanced modern dance classes, a group which includes many more girls, presented a Modern Dance assembly in March. In this the techniques learned throughout the year were used to interpret current popular songs, in a program which was patterned after a disk jockey show.
