Mgr.; Rose Marie Winters, Bus. Mgr. After months of hard work our 54 “Blue Gold” is completed. Here we would like to tell you the story of how it was done. The staff is chosen with the help of the English Department. Our ingenious co-editors this year are Fred Wiederwax and Barbara Frampton, who have been most ably assisted by John Hawthorne and Carlie Stuhl. Our capable business managers are Michael Rosen and Rosemarie Winters, and our very fine art editor is Nancy Preston. Write-ups, captions, explanations, and “pix” of everyone and everything, and plenty of good, hard work have gone into the make-up of this book. Our theme this year is woven around a pirate ship. We have tried to carry this out in both write-ups and in illustrations. The “Blue Gold contains the memories of the happy--and sometimes not-so-happy (life is not all sunshine, you know),--four years of high school for the class of '54. We hope it will be something you will prize and want to cherish always for the memories it will bring back. Ship's Officers Capt.

We soon learn- ed high school techniques. . .One day I walked up the Ship’s bow. . .to talk to our Captain, Pat Powell. . .He said he was leaving, but he’d leave in his place . . . Kay Campbell to take over as first mate ... He promised lots of fun in store. . . Dances, parties, and such, galore. . . With the ending of our frosh year... We plotted a dance, for the time was near... We came down the gangway, the dance was through. . . Now, to begin another year anew! Sophomore Year Our lines have been cast. . .

Until our assembly we came to face... But we figured just like the rest... We would all have to do our best. . .Well, we did and, as you know,. . .It turned out fine in spite of our woes. . . Then came the biggest event. . . The one to which the Senior (.lass went. . . Yes, it was time for our big day. . .

OOKING INTO THE FUTURE Shiver my timbers, it looks as if there are lights on ye olde pirate ship, G.H.S.l Ship, ahoy! and welcome to the reunion of the class of ’54! shouted former classmate KENNETH PARKER, president of the Buick Division of General Motors. Glancing around the ship, 1 could see that all mem- bers of the class seemed to have prospered in the fifteen years since graduation. In the first group 1 came upon, I met LOIS PORCH, five times Academy Award winner and now starring in her tenth Broadway hit, talking to Pulit- zer Prize winning novelist, BARBARA FRAMPTON, and to former Miss America and now glamorous movie star, BERNICE STUBBS and her escort, PHIL CAMPBELL, holder of the Olympic Decathlon record. Just back from a cross country run from Johnstown, Pennsylvania, is ALLEN BLACK, noted track star, watching fellow track star, JIM’ DAVIDSON, pole- vaulting over the main sail. Also watching are JEAN CHEESEMAN and SHIRLEY SOOY, co-captains of the all star hockey team of the U. S. A. Up at the wheel I see Dr. RONALD JOOS, nuclear physicist and winner of the Nobel Prize for science, talking over old times with BILL' BRITTON, research chemist for Dupont, and RODGER GIESEKE, top en- gineer at General Electric. In the galley many of the secretaries are telling what has happened to them since graduation. JOAN SAYRES. “ROSIE' WINTERS, and NANCY O’DONALD are all three, secretaries to members of the President's Cabi- net. KATHERINE WILSON and BERNICE BOOTH are private secretaries to the President himself. Secretary to the president of the Phillies is our own VELMA BROCK WAY. Also present are BARBARA Mc- CAUGHEY and “KASS1 DALY, private secretaries and helpers to JOAN ANDERSON,well -known fashion designer. Coming up the gang plank are ELLEN SCHRADER and DOT TROUGHTON, both of whom own large ranches out West. I also see the wealthiest woman in the world, RUTH NETTER, who is now married to a Vanderbilt. Also coming aboard is ESTHER RAUBE, now a missionary to China. In the forecastle are MICHAEL ROSEN, owner of the Rosen Accountancy with his efficient secretary, MARION SCHMIDT, chatting with PHIL PINES, head of the F.B.I. and BILL” SAYERS, top-flight engineer. Coming toward me with a copy of the Gloucester City News, which is now one of the nation’s most popu- lar weeklies, are co-owners, LOUISE WATSON, ALICE STRACK, and JOSEPHINE SETTAR. The paper’s sudden rise in popularity is due to the up-to-the-minute news coverage of FRANCES LLOYD. A glance at the headlines reveals that DR. FRED WIEDERWAX is about to tour the world and there is a picture showing the famous surgeon aboard ship sur- rounded by his private secretary, KAY CAMPBELL; his private nurse, JUDY DICKSON, and the world famous woman explorer, JOAN KUN1CKI. All pictures for the paper are taken by ace photographer “BOB WALSH, three time winner of the American Photography Society Award. A full page advertisement announces the opening of the Jay Tea Body Building School run by “JOHNNY TALORICO. Down in the foreward hole are many former pirates who have reformed and are now helmsmen.

The school newspaper, The Blue and Gold” has been very efficient in bringing news of the school to the students through- out the year. The paper is printed eight times a year and includes all past and coming events and any news that should prove interesting to the student reader, as well as features and material of an entertaining na- ture. The paper is very popular in G.H.S., and the student body always looks forward to the next edition. The paRpr is included in the purchase of an activity ticket at the rate of 65 cents per year, or it may be subscribed to separately at 85 cents per year, or each issue may be purchased for 15 cents per copy. The staff of editors includes Fred Wiederwax, Rodger Gie- seke, Lois Porch, and Barbara Frampton.

Honor Society Student Council The Nassau Chapter of the National Honor Society was founded during 1953-54 in order to give the proper recognition to students of good scholarship, character, leadership, and service to their school. The members of the Chapter are juniors and seniors who were chosen to be in the group by a committee of faculty members headed by Mr. Wendell Sooy. To be eligible for membership in the Honor Society is a distinction and a higher goal towards which students may strive. The Student Council, sponsored by Miss Hattie I. Martz, is composed of two representa- tives from each homeroom and of the class officers who automatically become members. It meets each week and plans for activities which are for the welfare of the student body. Michael Rosen, the President this year, led the Council very capably during an active year.

Aye, she s a well-built ship, moulded of sturdy lads and lasses. She’s piloted by C’apt. Marvin Ashmen, with an able mate in Bill Lonabaugh. She’s got Charles Cziryak as a purser with Kathleen Hindsley keeping the ship’s log. She has accomplished many deeds for G.H.S., among which are the “May Mardi Gras” and the “Touchdown Turnout”. Many a lad has seen her members in assemb- lies, and let’s not forget athletic ability. Many a team would not have been complete without her lads and lassies. She set her sails on a musical comedy, Good News”, the first ever presented by G.H.S., and it proved a huge success. No, lads, she hasn’t caught us yet, but by next June she will have taken our position, and ’tis good to lose such a position to such a noble ship. Junior Class Sophomores Yo Ho! These are the busy Sophomores who, under the leadership of Henry Lim for two years, have shown signs of developing into full- fledged pirates in another two years. This year they successfully presented the Sophomore Assembly Program in which singers, dancers, and a play were featured. Some of the members of the class helped with the Christmas Program and, also, aided the Class of 1955 with their Junior Play. After many busy months the Class of '56 gave a big send-off to the Senior Class and then presented the Sophomore Hop which everyone thought was a hugh success. As our sister class, the Sophomores show promise of filling our place in a creditable manner and of doing great things in the next two years. Freshmen Ship ahoy I Coming up in the rear are the baby pirates, or the freshman class. Their captain is Wayne Parker who is setting the sails of their ship towards big things in the future. They have already started to do things. In entertainment they staged a very good assembly program, and many of them have been active in sports. We all look forward to more exciting events from these, the infants of our crew, in future years. PATRONS ANO AOS Mr. Mrs. Clarence H.
