April 15, 1945 Dear Class of 1944: We dedicate this TIGER'S TALE, Croton-Harmon High's sec- ond yearbook, to you, because your generosity and forethought provided the financial impetus for our enterprise. We should like to include in this dedication all those former students who are now in the service Of Our country. I t has been our desire to produce a yearbook in a different style which will portray our school life as vividly and realistic- ally as possible. Wherever you are-in the colleges of America --in the foxholes of Germany-in ships advancing slowly to- wards Iapan-we hope that this T1GEn's TALE will bring you a breath of your old school days and will be a lasting souvenir of those pleasant years at C.H.H.S. First of all, we wish to thank james G. Zobian, for this book is mainly a result of his inspiration and able guidance. The yearbook staff is also indebted to the Commercial Club, under the direction of Miss lean Buckman, for soliciting the adver- tisements, the Projector Club for showing movies to help raise money, Louis H. Drinkwine for taking the Senior pictures, and Mr. Zobian for providing the other photographs. In particular, we appreciate the generosity of Mr. Albert Gerson in offering to lithograph our cover and cover-sheet and in presenting the cover-sheet to us as a gift. The personnel of the SCHOOL BOARD, that unseen hand that rules the school, has changed little since you left. Mrs. Ruth Heit has replaced Mr. Arthur Roberts, the other members being Mr. Charles M utti, Mr. Ioseph Smith, Mr. Everett Ashworth, and Mr. Ethelbert Hungerford.

Kennedy, treasurer: Otis M. Barker, clerk, O. Wendell Haque, principal. Once a month, sometimes oftener, they gather in the Board Room, and out of the smoke come decisions ranging from the price of A-type luncheons to plans for post-war building. The Various committees that set forth all decrees are the Personnel, Finance, Health and Athletics, and Plant and Grounds. They are respectively headed by: Mrs. Heit, Mr. Hungerford, Mr. Smith, and Mr. Ashworth. The board has had to tackle particularly difficult problems this year. Outstanding among these were the congestion in the cafeteria and the fuel shortage. ln addition to the administration of the school, each mem- ber has his own vocation and hobbies. Mr. M utti is in the jewel- ry business, and Mr. Ashworth is with the N. Y. Telephone Company, but both of them consider fishing a pretty good oc- cupation, too. Gardening is the pet avocation of Mr. Smith and lVlr. Hungerford. The former is with the New York Central, and Mr. Hungerford is a member of a brokerage firm. Like most of our mothers, Mrs. Heit is a housewife. Her chief pastime is the School Board, which we think is a wonderful hobby for a mem- ber of our board.
