Oontenis Incorporating a calendar and the seasons of the year into a unified whole this year ' s Zephyrus staff presents the varied hues of life at AHS in picture and in prose. The theme of the seasons has a deeper implication. For life itself, from birth to pri¬ mary school, from primary to elementary school, from ele¬ mentary school to high school, from high school, to work, to marriage, to college, is not unlike the constant ebb and flow of days and the chang¬ ing currents of time and the weather. Our book is perhaps a little unorthodox in that we have divided it according to the months of the year and the seasons rather than by the more traditional division. Thus you will find the seniors last, because graduation in June is a spring highlight. Sports are scattered according to the time of year we enjoy them . . . football in the fall, basket¬ ball in winter, baseball and track in the spring. At any rate we present: Our Calendar of Events at AHS for 1953. PAT MATTHEWS, Editor-in-Chief. . . . Spring

' education The 1953 Zephyrus staff is proud to dedicate this book to Miss Fern Curry, senior Eng¬ lish teacher, Astor Post adviser and head of the English de¬ partment. Because of her unselfish de¬ votion to students and to the cause of better education she has endeared herself to the class of 1953 and to Astoria high school. Not the least of Miss Curry ' s devoted service to AHS has been the advisership to the Zephyrus and the Astor Post. In addition to a regular journalism class she spent countless hours outside of school helping students put together the newspaper and yearbook. This year these duties are split. But the hours, extra-hours, still pile up. To you, then, in gratitude, we present the 1 953 Zephyrus. THE STAFF. . . . School
