Go Forward In Faith DEDICATION Where there is doubt, let him sow faith. V To you, Mr. Reynolds, our advisor for the past three years, we graduates proudly dedicate the Log of 1955, which you so faithfully helped us to organize. Your guid- ance has helped us to face the future without fear. We shall always strive to retain the faith you have encouraged in us, and when we leave Bellport High, this feeling will go with us through the years. i - -2- x X HERMAN CHAMBERLAIN Principal june, 1955 Dear Seniors: It is always a pleasure to write a short message to you and contribute in a small way to the success of your yearbook. This year I think you have chosen an excellent theme for the LOG, Go Forward in Faith. Everyone lives according to his own philosophy. The basis of all philosophy is faith. Everyone must have faith in some- thing, otherwise, life is intolerable. During your school career you have had faith that your school program has been of value to you. You have had confidence in the marking and reporting system. You have been loyal to your school administration, and above all, you have had faith in your teachers. Now as you leave high school for work or for further study, you must have the same faith in your community, in your country, and in the world. More im- portant, you must know there is a place for you and work to be done. Above all, you must have faith in yourself - faith that you will be able to perform all the duties of citizenship, in small matters as well as large ones, at home as well as in the business world. I wish you success and happiness. Sincerely, 4,-w4,,Zr,.,.,., 5 I L. Jones, Rider College, B.C.S., W. Reynolds, M.A. Syracuse, English and French, M.

Carle QL I CLASS HISTORY just about 15 years ago, a group of scared little kids walked into our fair school, trying to conceal the trembling in their knees. This was the future Senior class of '55 and we are going to try to trace their path through school, complete with happiness, heartbreak, accomplishment and frustration. These first kindergarreners who toddled into .Mrs. Cleave's room deserve to be named, for they were the be- ginning of great things to come. Bill jefferson, johnny Lanyi, Ed Cummings, Roger Edwards, Anthony Belmonte, Bertie Richardson, Jean DiDio, Carol Sarornino, Martha Carle, George Carle, jay Gould, Bernard Wells and Pete O'Neill were the members of that class, and lintle did they realize as they played with their blocks and pulled each orher's hair what was in store for them. Some would stay and some would leave, but none would forget. Having survived the rigors of that first bewildering year, our heroes and heroines were quite coinfident as they prepared to embark in Mrs. Nina Corwin's first grade class. Under her gentle guidance they made their first ac- quaintance with the three R's, some eagerly and some, as is always the case, just a bit reluctantly. A high spot, still affectionately remembered by those participating, was their Easter Parade. Still undaunted, our little class advanced on to second grade for more knowledge, joys, and experiences. School work was a bit harder and puzzled frowns more frequent. But with Mrs. Demarest and Mrs. Brown keeping things on an even keel, the year sped by swiftly. Third grade was another step upward on the school ladder which seemed to stretch on endlessly. To these in- nocent little children, high school seemed a very exalted place, peopled by huge giants, never to be attained by such as they. But they didn't worry much about that for Mrs. Schaefer kept them hopping with plenty of fascinating activities. Joyce and Carol Washington joined the class this year and did their part in making it a pleasant one. Fourth grade was next with Mrs. Ruth Corwin greet- ing her charges on the first day. Arithmetic was the main problem this year with that old jinx, division, giving lots of the earnest students a hard time. But it was mastered in time along with corresponding advances in the other subjects. This year is remembered as one of the hardest stholastically but it also gave a greater sense of achieve ment to the boys and girls, as they realized a diffic - f hurdle had been overcome successfullv. They were fortunate in fifth grade to have a that-ner who already knew them well and could get the mc t out of them. Mrs. Schaefer was this person and she saw to it that everyone did his best. Spice was added to this year with the arrival of four new friends, Charlie Dunbar, Betty Lou Darmanin, Nancy Krug and Nona Cantella. Two new additions, Catherine and Florence Melia, helped to brighten the sixth grade year as the growing and maturing went on. High school didn't seem so far away now and new ideas were adopted and old ones left behind. Some boys even began to think that girls weren't such awful sissies and some took an interest in them. However there wasn't much of that and they were young enough to throw themselves whole heartedly into the build- ing of some realistic medieval castles. Mrs. Macintosh was the often harassed yet always patient teacher. Seventh grade was a memorable year in many re- spects. We were in junior high school now. For the first time we had male teachers and moved from class to class instead of staying in one room all day. Eighth grade was another banner year. We became more and more accustomed to the high school routine and felt very grown up. Newcomers were Pete Collins, Debby Curtis, Jean Schaefer, and Lindsey Valentine. The climax to this year was the 8th grade graduation, the parting of the ways, with grammar school and the link that bound us with a completely new concept, high school. It was an impression ceremony but to lighten the atmosphere the history and future were given. It was one of the major milestones in the history of our class. Mr. Stock was the teacher who steered us through this tempestuous year. And the next year we were freshmen. To celebrate the event the class was practically doubled with new stu- dents from East Patchogue, and Brookhaven. They were Geff Champlain, Lucretia Ciaccio, Catherin Murch, Marge Stevens, Arthur Waugh, Carol Gallo, Jim Humbert, Dan Prestia, Dolores Swigart, Kathleen jones, Frank Tuzza, Ruth Golsner and .Shirley Rignola. The more the merrier they say and these new members certainly proved it as they added a great deal to our activity, both scholastic and extra curricular. The fact that we were the lowest type of life in high school tended to awe us for a while but we soon got over that and were as brash and self-confident as ever. We began to carve a fine sports record, gave our first high school dance, and produced assembly on Treas- ure Island that was enjoyed by one and all, actors and audience. Yes, it was a big year packed with fond mem- ories. Ruth Golsner was class president and Mr. Feeney was our homeroom teacher who steered us over our pre- liminary high school difficulties. Well integrated now into the high school scheme of this, we proceeded into our sophomore year. Always a small class, we were high in'quality which was improved by two new additions, Frank DiGangi and Russ Stewart. We even now began to form future plans, arranging our studies on academic, business, or secretarial lines. Leav- ing plenty of time out for fun however, we gave another wonderful dance, contributed heavily in sports and wound up the year with fa. 5 ' Perhaps not as successful as some ye ac... n vw ' . '1,-yable and we had the pleasure of a x :acher, Mr. Reynolds. 1- ni'i-. 1 ths we spent as juniors were among -Y Ti , - g and productive up to that time. Every- -...V A .mined our hand to seemed to go right. We f ' in an hilarious assembly that even had that usually .r . servative element the faculty, rolling in the aisles. The annual junior-senior banquet was likewise a smashing suc- cess, with a rollicking shipboard theme as atmosphere. And as a grand finale to a perfect year, the junior-senior prom was a joyful medley of wonderful music, dreamy background and swaying couples. With Mr. Reynolds a second year homeroom advisor, three new students were Beverly Saulle, Leo Barthelmess, Vincent Freida and with Art Waugh as class president. We wound up the activity with a picnic and departed on vacation with mixed emo- tions realizing that next September 8 would begin our best but last year at Bellport High School. And likewise it is with mixed emotion that the last words of this history are penned. For alshough a new challenging life lies ahead of us, it is always a wrench to leave an old, true friend which is what high school has been. Realizing the debt we owe ir, we can only hope that some part has been repaid by achievements. So with final humble thanks to all the faculty that have always had only what is best for us in' mind, we fully intend to carry the inspiration of this Log with us into later life, Go Forward in Faith. w , '7- fri flxj- 'UE lib, we a . --fs M., ., J Plays skillfully with a ioua noise-.XC 51 f af A f Y NU - f l - ,JM ll Xin-'J 'I A , f X fr w at N 4 R 1 , 5 x N vkiigsb X ROGER EDWARDS Rog Orchestra 1,45 Band 1,45 All State 1,45 Glee Club 1,45 Track 2,3,45 Basketball 1,25 Cross Country 15 Quiet in voice, mild in manner.

Now that we've taken that final step, Our life is just beginning to start. We thank the teachers who have met The problems with which we'll soon part. But the future calls to us, her youth, And we will heed this cry By following hope, faith, and truth, And the many walks of life occupy. In our young hands the world we hold, To science we'll give new birth. More precious to us than all the gold Is this freedom we enjoy on earth. We gained that treasure by faith, Belief in God and our fellowmen. To benefit by this, the prophet saith, Multiply all your energies by ten. As we leave the portals of Bellport, And look toward that distant view, We'll remember the things it taught. May they help us to follow thru. i Nothing was ever accom- plished without enthusiasm and patience. Seek that ye may excel. Life by quickly, best of it.

Happily for us Bellport is adequate in this respect. For those who want to further their education there are ample courses in science, math, and language not to mention the compulsory subjects, English and social studies. There are courses in typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, and business law for those interested in business, and for the vocational minded there are shop and home economics available. We regret that our vocational facilities are not ideal but there is some promise of improvement in the near future. Thus an understand- ing faculty and a somewhat varied curriculum work together to fashion good citizens out of Bellport students. ATOXWC SCIENCE SOCIAL Srupffs ng A it X l DISCUSSION Also a factor in achieving this goal is our new marking system which made its debut last year. Fori- saking A. B, C, etc., for the letters H. M. S, U, F, CHonor, Merit, Satisfactory, Unsatisfactory, Failingb it is based on an entirely new principle. It grades the pupil on progress in proportion to ability. This puts a high premium on hard work and effort, and often enables a poor yet industrious student to get a good mark while a more accomplished yet lazy one will get a low grade because of lack of interest and effort. This system is designed to increase incentive for studying and boosts the morale of former failing students who under the present system can pass if they have the desire. This is the Bellport scholastic program which is broadminded and based on the faith of the individ- ual student. It gives every student the tools he needs for participation in the world of today.

In Bellport High School, such success is in- sured as'the democratic processes' of the Student Council. Presided over by President Peter Collins, and given a helping' hand -by Mr. Stock, the Student Council takes charge of the General Organizationfallots money for activity, and instigates worthwhile projects, all the time '-alert to the will of the ma- jority whom they represent.

Thei primary goal of our educational system is preparing students for so- ciety, and requires an understanding of and participation in 'law and order. This dual need is satisfied by our Police Force under the efficient supervision of Chief Carol Satornino, The police patrol the halls. Students are required to abide by the will of the majority and when regulations are broken, they are penalized. judge jay Gould dispenses punishments to these offenders. Thus the police force serves to give students experience in responsible po- sitions and shows them to value and necessity of conforming to societys regulations.

HOBBY CLUB ' - The shop, once a week doing club period, is the haven of that hardy little crew who serve as the school Fix-Its and revel in the rasp of the file and the buzz of the saw. And a fine job they do too. To their credit are the fine sets for the school plays, and the useful gadgets they fashioned which adorn their homes. With Richard Reib serving as president and Mr. Manhardt the advisor, banged thumbs were a rarity and excellent work the usual commodity. This practical minded group will have no trouble with the vexing little household problems that will plague the rest of us in the near future. ' u As you observe the fresh, inquisitive faces in this photograph, who knows what future Einsteins and Galileos are pictured here? If they have the talent and faith in, themselves they'll go right to the top and 1et's hope they do. Help- ing them to get started is the Science Club advisor, Mr. Baldwin, who keeps things on an even keel and prevents ex- periments from getting out of hand. Work this year was done in two sections, one group working in biology and the L other dabbling in ideas concerning phys- ics, chemistry, and electronics.

U Bellport has come to expect the best of this group and they weren't disappoint- ed this year at the club's offerings: the 5 uproarious three-act production What A Life and the inspiring Gloria a Christ- mas choral play. Ask a member of the club how they do it and he'll tell that all it takes is plenty of faith in the fac- ulty advisor and director, Mr. Feeney. Under his supervision, the budding Thes- peans are kept busy all the time. SENIOR DRAMATIC CLUB . .

After years of envious longing they finally entered the Home Ec. room as authorized chefs, with Brad Phillips as their hungry president. Their long wait was justified by their mag- nificent culinary creations and the result- ant enthusiasm of those who tasted them. Mrs. Paul, the advisor, remained stead- fast and faithful through preliminary burnings and scorchings and was an in- strumental factor in the fashioning of these exquisite cooks who are sure to make their wives happy. ..34... JG af .www fl xv, JUNIOR DRAMATIC CLUB The assembly is beginning. The curtain rises. The audience relaxes in their seats, know- ing that they will be on the edge of them be- fore long, since the junior dramatic club al- ways does a good job. And this was brought out a half an hour later, as the mrtain fell to an wholehearted applause. Yes, 'during the past year, the results of the work of the junior dramatic club always brought satisfaction. The only fault that can be found is that the one act comedies to which they limit themselves are so short. But even that complaint will be eliminated in a few years when the young actors and actresses graduate to the more dif- ficult taxing 3-act productions. Mr. Bowman is the advisor who started these budding stars on the path to fame. FIRST ROW, L. to R.: L. Quimby, Garfield, G. Bowen, A. French, L. Martin, Mr. Bowman. SEC- OND ROW: B. Klein, C.

Well, maybe that is a little exaggeration, but it is true that What A Life is one of the best jobs acted by this tal- ented group. And it took a lot more than just talent getting the fin- ished product put together. The old standbys, hard work, faith in the director and enthusiasm were the other ingredients that made What' A Life such a tasty dish. As long as the actors have these traits ,and Mr. Feeney as director, the plays will continue to be better and better. x.

Waugh, B. Wells. The 1954-55 basketball season was a mixed one for the Bellport Clippers. They wound up with a 12-6 record, in a tie for third place in the league standings. This is a very creditable showing but for Bellport fans a little disappointing since they confidently expected Bellport to be on top when the season ended. However, that's finished now, and It was a banner year for Bellport in this relatively unknown sport which calls for so much endurance and hard work. Not only was it all in all it was a very satisfactory season with the scrappy Blue team winning more than their share of the tense thrillers that are a Bellport trademark. The consensus is that with a few breaks and a healthy team, Bellport could have taken it all. At any rate, wait till next year! It was a colorful team with individuals that appealed to the crowd's fancy. Sparkling the team in his last year was Bernie Wells. Alternating between pivot and guard, Bernie always seemed to come up with those pot shots when they were needed most. His companion in the backcourt was George Carle, another senior, who was a good ball handler and scorer and an in- valuable part of the Clipper's type of game. A tower of strength under the backboards was senior Frank DiGangi who contributed height and re- bound strength essential to a top flight club. An- other starting senior was Art Waugh, a forward who rebounded well and came through with record timely baskets. And most important of all was the new coach, Mr. Cox, who instilled new blood in the Clippers and dynamically steered them to a new high ranking spot in a top league. With a good coach, good team, and fine record Bellport had a very satisfactory season. BASKETBALL cRoss COUNTRY the first year the Clippers had participated since 1950, but our in- experienced pacers compiled a fine record of three firsts, two seconds and one tihrd. The LOG feels that Mr. Manhardt and the team de- serves unsrinted praise for working so faithfully and doing so Well without the public recognition that other sports enjoy. They are a credit to the school and we are quite confident that they will improve steadily in the coming season. we E' an at f 'tv .... ... Carle, H.

The girls work nights to perfect the contest and make it enjoyable, and this year the result was especially fine. From the beginning entrance to the final relays and includ- ing the dances, marching and contests in between, the color contest was an unqualified delight to all who beheld it. It reflected unlimited credit on Presi- dent Beverly Saulle and the other G.A.L. heads not forgetting the rest of the girls who were so co-opera- tive carrying out the directions of Mrs. Beacom, Advisor. 1 S x CHEERLEADERS With the coming of soccer the familiar yells again ring throughout the atmosphere of Bellport High. Once again above these shouts, the wild cheering of the Bellport Cheerleaders can be heard leading the crowd. As soccer fades Basketball steps in and the Cheerleaders, led by Captain Judy Patterson, are again frantically cheering their teams on. With only one cheering squad this year, the cheerleaders, under the guidance of Mrs. Beacom, have really worked hard to exercise their abilities with precision and to organize pep rallies and rooters buses. All this tends to strengthen the student's faith in their school teams. G.A.L. The Girls Athletic League is a living example showing that sports, heretofore thought to be com- pletely cornered by the male sex, is being taken over by females. Regardless of how much men may de- plore this, it has to be admitted that the G.A.L., at least, is holding their end up very well. Sparked by President Beverly Saulle and the other officers pic- tured here, these athletic girls worked long and hard to compile a very creditable inter-school record. Proving, however, that they were still very feminine, the G.A.L. gave two very wonderful dances, one in- corporating the frantic race of Sadie Hawkins Day. Supervising their ambitious activities and of invalu- able aid to them was the G.A.L. advisor, Mrs. Beacom. N X WA' ,afazeffaf The chief objective in the girls physical education program is the development of good physical and mental health. This is one of the primary functions of a school and here in Bellport it is given its due importance. The program, under the direction of Mrs. Beacom, provides for a variety of sports and gymnastics which keep the health of the girls up to par and enables them to do their best in classes. The motto is healthy bodies, healthy mind and all the girls try to live up to it. Of course the demands of society cannot be slighted, so sportsmanship, court- esy and a sense of responsibilities are all integral parts of the girls' physical education program. These are all lofty aims and yet, if a girl works hard for four years, she will l ve ellport enriched with many valuable qual' 1 Mill e her faith y during ' if lpyfmusdu ff' ,MO Mlf Ylfjlse sg?
