Hempstead High School - Colonial Yearbook (Hempstead, NY)

Text from Pages 1 - 174 of the 1941 volume:

■rtf JUx Oacoa Ox yxux THE 1941 “Colonial” gives its award to one of the best liked English teachers. Her friendliness to all and her ability to make schoolwork enjoyable are as important to the students as are her high standards and indomitable zeal. Best known for her work as the faculty-director of the yearbook, Miss Barth is an inspiration to its staff. To her the Junior Class affectionately and appreciatively dedicates the 1941 “Colonial.” MAY E. BARTH liiiliwMiiwWl! msm ‘iiiik mM psawM WE PREVIEW THE NEW COLOSSAL PRODUCTION TURN this page and before your eyes the yearbook unrolls reel by reel. We have attempted to depict them all—administra- tion, faculty, and students—in the light of Hollywood. One year in the life of students and faculty on the sets is the production “Hempstead High School.” It represents the complete devotion to their respective jobs, and the coordinated efforts, of a splendid group of administrators, a staff of loyal teachers, and a cast of nearly twenty-seven hundred students. As a document of our times and manners it is a contribution of more than passing significance. What makes this a really important film is that every second of it is real. The “Colonial” staff now releases to the public the new print of Hempstead High School.” And no star holding his Oscar feels prouder than we expect to feel that spring day when the students are viewing the first personal appearance of “The 1041 Colonial.” Regard it as your choicest treasure! BOARD OF DIREOTORS JUST as the Board of Directors of a motion picture corporation supervises the business of the studios so does the Board of Education decide the questions pertaining to our school life. This group of congenial men meets on the third Thursday of each month to discuss school problems. It is their function to determine school policy and to secure the officials that are to carry out these policies. The members of the Board of Education are President—F. Kenneth Harder; Vice-President—W. Ilalsey Wood; Secretary—T. J. Mc- Laughlin; Treasurer—Dr. Morris Rodin; District Clerk—Dr. Wil- liam Gore; Dr. J. T. P. Calkins. The members of the Hempstead Board of Education—W. Halsey Wood, Dr. Morris Rodin, Dr. William Gore, F. Kenneth Harder, T. J. McLaughlin. Dr. J. T. P. Calkins. PUBLICITY DIVISION THE parent-teacher association brings together in one organi- sation those parents, teachers, and other adults whose com- mon interests center in the youth of today . . . publicizing, when- ever possible, the educational system under which the school operates and thus creating a better understanding between home, school, and community. The P.T.A. officers for 1940-41: President—Mrs. George Greene; 1st Vice-President—Dr. Edna Thayer; 2nd Vice-President—Mrs. Howard Nostrand; Recording Secretary—Mrs. August Vollmert; Corresponding Secretary—Mrs. Owen Dangerfield; Treasurer—Mr. Harry Velsor; Historian—Mrs. Bernard Peck. The officers of the Hempstead Parent-Teacher Organization—Mrs. George Greene. Mr. Harry Velsor, Dr. Edna Thayer. Mrs. Howard Nostrand, Mrs. August Vollmert. Mrs. Bernard Peck. Mrs. Owen Dangerfield. PRODUCER OF SYSTEM I N THE terms of Hollywood, Dr. William A. Gore, Superintend- 1 ent of Schools in Hempstead, is the producer of producers. In other words, he works as the co-ordinating force of directing seven principals under him. Each demands a different handling, and each school has a slightly different organization and methods of produc- tion. Dr. Gore’s task requires infinite wisdom and constant atten- tion to detail. Dr. Gore was graduated from Merion High School in Illinois. I le then attended the Universities of Illinois, Columbia, Harvard, and New York. Since 1932 Dr. Gore has been an essential part of I lemp- stead and its schools. When the job of keeping-all-going-smoothly becomes heavy. Dr. Gore slips away to his home and there paints to his heart’s content. HEAD OF PRODUCTION JUST as a good motion picture bears the stamp of a great pro- ducer so does every senior class of Hempstead High School have the mark “A Raymond Maure Production.” Each year there is the stamp of Dr. Maure’s personality and his understanding of life on the living story which has visual interest and situations filled with democratic action. Raymond Maure, principal of the high school, was graduated from Oneonta High School. He then received a B.S. and M.A. from Alfred University. Since 1921 Dr. Maure has been in Hempstead, and in 1939 he became a trustee of I lofstra College. All the cares and worries of the day are swept away when Dr. Maure plays golf or bowls with some of his many friends. BUSINESS OFFICE WITHIN Office i Hilda M. Hardy, the super- visor, and the secretaries, Margaret Doty and Edith Schwedes, carry out the business of the Board of Education and the Hempstead Schools. In this office are handled teacher certification and retirement system records, nonresident billing and State records, requisitioning of textbooks, supplies, and materials for all schools: recording, distribu- tion. and analysis of all school costs; payrolls, rental of school buildings, bonded indebtedness, budget control, annual State reports, and exhibit of L. I. Teachers Association. Office I—Margaret Doty, Secretary; Dr. William Gore. Superintendent of Schools; Edith Schwedes, Secretary; Hilda M. Hardy, Supervisor. Office 2—Billie Webb, Secretary; June McClelland. As- sistant Secretary: Dr. Raymond Maure, Principal of Hempstead High. OFFICE OF H.H.S. HERE Dr. Raymond Maure, the producer, co- ordinates the activities of all departments and supervises the actual production of Hemp- stead High School.” Each year a retake appears, greater than the one before, and the responsibility for its final form and its effectiveness depends on Dr. Maure’s ability. Office 2 is the home of a well-organized place- ment and adjustment bureau. It helps the youths find their first jobs and guides those holding tempo- rary jobs into work that offers some future. STATISTICS TOO IN THIS busy office the casting director and her assistants take charge of all the classifications of twenty-seven hundred registrations. Each stu- dent’s schedule is considered individually and checked with regard to his future plans, his past performances, and his innate ability. Office 2, with its complete set of catalogues for higher education, aids the student in making nec- essary preparations for college entrance. Complete statistics pertaining to grades and personnel rec- ords are on file in this office. Office 2—Alice Hansen. Assistant: Alice Swoboda. As- sistant: Louise R. Hueston. Registrar: Eunice Ronner- man. Assistant. ALL CHECK HERE WHEN everything is ready for a take, the final checking of attendance and be- havior is done by these three assistants of Dr. Maure, the producer. After scenes are shot, the personnel of Office 3 supervises all extra-curricular activities, governs the athletic program for boys and girls, manages the National Youth Administra- tion, supervises welfare work in connection with the school, directs the program of visual educa- tion, and has charge of the finances of all extra- curricular activities of Hempstead High School. Office )—E. C. Moore. Administrative Assistant; Hazel M. Foster, Dean of Girls: William Beddow, Assistant Principal. 'I he directors, our splendid faculty, have their own particular sets where each directs the picture which he expects may win an award. The pictures pro- duced by these hard-working, efficient people are many and varied. Some reels are historical novels, dramatized; others interest the embryo scientists; and still others are musical comedies. Often there is an outstanding star in one of these pictures (classes)—the real credit goes to the teacher- director who coached the star in his lines and in his acting. BUGLES SOUND; NEEDLES CLICK THEY’RE in the army now! Sadly we said farewell to three faculty members who left H.II.S. for one year to swell the ranks of the army. Mr. Luke White, the first to go. was sent to Camp Upton where he did a grand job in the clerical department. At this date Mr. White is once again within our school district, for he is stationed at Mitchel Field in the Aircraft Warning Division. The freshman class lost one of its English teachers when the President of the United States sent a letter to Mr. Mooney stating that he had been selected to serve the army at Fort McClellan, Alabama. Freshmen, Mr. Mooney continues to do his English homework; he writes articles for a newspaper. Once again the call came! In February, Mr. Albinski. assistant director in the music department, dropped his H.II.S. baton and selected a new one in Texas. ‘Way down thar, Mr. Albinski is band director for the 6i)th Coast Artillery at Camp llulen. Whether she has a free moment or not, every woman is knitting for the soldiers. Our faculty members, the fairer sex, of course, know that the perfect smart con- versation piece is the knitting bag. The profs specialize in making water repellent sea-boot stockings for the men on the trawlers and on the mine sweepers. Balaklava helmets, the ones for the aviators, are knitted in a hazy shade known as air-force blue.” Airmen are very popu- lar. Willingly and continuously teachers who cannot knit do relief work. Everyone is busy helping others! Some teachers raise money by giving bridge parties; others collect old clothes and secondhand shoes and send them to Finland, Greece, France, and China; a few make surgical dress- ings for the Red Cross; and many buy tickets for bene- fit performances and for insignias to wear as badges of humanity. “Dieu et Mon Droit” pins of red, white, and blue enamel affirm, as words cannot, that there is a heart beneath the dress. These two photographs of four faculty members symbolize the role being played by American teachers in the vast defense program. CCourtesy of Nassau Daily Review) One of our faculty members.

'7 REST FROM THE WEARY GRIND OF DIRECTING A CURSORY survey of the village would indicate that many teachers find themselves at eventide with at least one of their desires fulfilled: My wants are few, I only wish a hut of stone, that I may call my own.” Scattered throughout the residential sections of this old village are the new homes of Misses Boyle, Cantfil, Gunnerson, McQueen, MacCallum, and Messrs. Schem, Goldy, Loeb, Pratt, and Levine. For getting away from a too troubled world, these teachers suggest evenings at rest in a home of your own. Bowling has been for the past year the number one movie box- office attraction, anci its popularity is, if anything, on the increase. Some of the feminine members of our faculty, Misses Rowles, Bringhurst, Davis, McLean, Rowley, and Beighley, bowl to their heart’s content. Their scores are kept a secret. There's bound to be a teacher who is a collector of something, whether it’s silver, music boxes, stamps, miniature bottles, china, recipes, door hinges, or fossils. The valuable whatnots can be seen but not handled by inquisitive friends. For information consult Messrs. Pill. Navarra, Holtz, Cummings, Burckley, and Misses Davis, Barth, and Field. At home with drawn curtains ... an easy chair . . . good books . . . there you will find Misses Blaisdell, Joyce, Cantfil, Noon, and Ford. English: Bernice I luff. Frank Pill, Camille Yilek.

Even the most glowing superlatives are none too adequate to describe this group of seniors. Suffice to say: Even though Hollywood has its kings and queens, we prefer these boys and girls. They have everything—beauty, talent, intellect, and most of all—happiness. With the award which four years of school brings to the seniors, they are ready to work out their future. May nothing and no one deter the class of 1941 from its inevitable course and purpose. Senior Class Officers—Robert St. Onge. Ruth I zniann. Howard Pappert. Florence Goodwin.

STARS IN FINAL ACT REVEAL FINE ABILITY HT HE final curtain descends on our stars, the Seniors of 11)41. 1 Under the direction of the teachers, the H.H.S. rehearsals end in a triumphant release with no retakes. Top hilling goes to President Robert St. Onge. Handsome, ath- letic Bob, football hero of the class, didn’t get his grace from the dance floor—oh—girls, his pet dislike is dancing. After graduation Bob expects to attend Georgetown University, Fnergetic Ruth L'zmann is Bob's feminine lead. Ruth is in the Pen and Ink Club, and on the Senior Girls’ Service Squad. When she's not shooting in Rifle Club or dancing to Tommy Dorsey’s orchestra, she is dreaming about her one wish, to drive an ambulance in case of war. The ever-present, quiet, featured player is 1 loward Pappert who finds the secretarial job very restful. In athletics he likes bowl- ing, swimming, and skating. For something that takes a little less effort, he enjoys dancing to any good, orchestra. Athletic Florence Goodwin, keeper-of-the-coins. is well known for her work on the “Patriot” and the “Quill.” Florence loves to drive a car and wants to go to a business college. Orchids to Miss Hall, Senior Adviser for nineteen years, and to her competent assistants, Miss Abbott, Miss Bennett, and Miss Schultz. 27 CHRISTINE ABBOTT—Science Club '38; Rifle ’39.

Just at present the casting office can find within the ranks of these classes: a Plato or a Socrates, debonair students, unusually horrible brats, fairly good boys, goody-goody girls, roughnecks of the skip- ping class type, and really nice students. Great stars from little extras grow, and do it fairly fast. MANY CHANGES OCCUR ON ROAD TO SUCCESS EVERY year Hempstead High School takes into its care some seven hundred new personalities, all of whom are expected to be much wiser after four years in its halls of learning. One can usually spot the new-comers. They are distinguished by their wondering expression, neat appearance, and diminutiveness. It is, of course, of vital importance that they should always be lugging all their books from class to class. They have troubles— what to do and when to do it. We do agree that the problems facing the seniors are numerous and weighty; however, the underclassmen have got plenty on their minds besides musty old history dates and what x plus y equals. Years change the underclassmen into seniors who have superior looks on their faces, swaggers in their walks, haphazard ways of wearing their clothes, high-water folds on their trousers (if boys), or superfluous warpaint and bleeding finger nails (if the fairer sex), and most important of all—no books in their arms. Surely the underclassmen must do their studying some time. Needless to say, the reassuring statistics show that H.H.S. stu- dents, after progressing from freshman class to senior year, emerge well equipped to face the world. The activities of our classmates, who are as colorful a lot of rascals and paragons as you would care to meet, prove that in life as well as in the movies, actions speak louder than words. unior Class Officers—Eugene DulTee, John Harrigan, George Mac- Dowell. Norman Andersen. UNDERSTUDIES WILL HAVE STARDOM SOON THE curtain rises revealing tomorrow’s stars—the Class of 1942. Miss Gardner, the adviser, stands at center stage with the four masculine stars of the cast. When he isn't playing his be- loved clarinet, President Norman Andersen, “Nemo” to some, may be found on the sports location. Norman’s right-hand man, George MacDowell, is interested in wrestling, and is a member of the Colonial” and the “Patriot.” A stalwart lieutenant of the Hall Cops, John I larrigan, finds time to be secretary of the class, a mem- ber of the Student Forum, and a reporter for the Patriot.” The fourth male actor in the Class of 1042 is Eugene Duffee. He con- tributes lung power to the A Cappella Choir and written material to the “Colonial” and the Quill.” The Class of 1942 has actors in many of the activities on the Hempstead sets. There are some colossal reporters on the staff of Hempstead’s mouthpiece the “Patriot.” Some of the outstanding stars edit and publish the “Colonial.” Of course, you will find juniors in many of the sports and some sections of the music department. Once they get to know the parts there’s no holding back these understudies, the juniors; they’ll take the leading parts which the seniors have outgrown. The players are cast. Let them speak for themselves. r J Sophomore Class Officers—Walter Elwell. Jane Miller, Harriet Ham- mond, Thomas MacDonald. STARLETS WILL RATE TOP BILLING IN 1943 THE talented, ambitious sophomores are now poised half way up the ladder of fame. This eager and energetic group is headed for future stardom, and it’s sure to make it! Following in the footsteps of Donald Powers is handsome, music-loving Walter Elwell, who was re-elected class president again this year. Blond Jane Miller, one of our popular cheerleaders, assists him as vice-president, while gentlemanly Thomas MacDonald keeps the class minutes. Vivacious Harriet Hammond, another cheerleader, is entrusted with the class dues. This year, instead of the annual Soiree the sophomores held an afternoon Frolic for themselves. With Joe I lealy acting as Master of Ceremonies, there was an afternoon of entertainment as well as dancing. The excellent singing of Marion Cummings, Barbara Wooley, and Betty Daigneault was well applauded, as was the fine tap dancing of Ann Schlimm and Joan Acker. Mr. Schem was present with his ever-intriguing feats of magic, and there was also one of the popular quizzes. Capable Elaine Caldwaller had charge of the refreshments, and efficient John Worley was business manager. Mrs. Greenlund, class adviser, and her assistants, Miss Tripp and Miss Furgerson, know that the sophomores have proved themselves a cooperative group, whose loyalty and school spirit have been outstanding. Mrs. Esther Greenlund is the amiable, competent adviser to the up-and-coming Sophomores. 59 Freshman Class Officers—Donald March, Jane Cornwall, Richard Ander- son, Sue Cornell. EXTRAS ARE NEEDED IN OUR PRODUCTION WITH signs of future glamour beginning to show on their bewildered faces, the 1941 freshmen have started their course in higher education. Although the students are only “extras” now; nevertheless they are needed for our production. Even upper- classmen, if they think hard enough, are able to recollect that they were once in the same position. The Class of 1945 forms the mob scenes for H.H.S., but it is carefully preparing for the feature roles by following in the footsteps of those exalted stars of 1941, the Seniors. The youth who received the star hero role of the Class of 1945 is trumpeter Donald March. Cheerleader Don’s chief interest and hobby is photography. If you think that these “extras” don’t have stand-ins, you’re mistaken, for Don has one—musical Jane Corn- well, the vice-president. Although she plays the drums, Jane’s am- bition is to become an author. Sports occupy the time of the popu- lar secretary, Richard Anderson. Cute, popular Sue Cornell, class treasurer, considers dancing her hobby. Just give the freshies plenty of time, at least three years, for experience and hard work sprinkled with fun and laughter, and then wonders will be seen. Miss Farrior, the capable, pleasant adviser, and the casting office promise a starring senior class in 1945. Watch! The baby starlets will soon be stars! 60 t O r Ac.e Miss Bonnie Lee Farrior is the friendly, capable adviser to the peppy young Freshmen. REEL Strictly speaking, nothing in the “H.H.S. Pro- duction” offers the student so effective an oppor- tunity of stepping into another world as does participation in a school activity. Hall Cops, Jun- ior Secretaries, Campus Patrol, Senior Girls’ Serv- ice Squad, Gym Aides, Advisory Aides, and Library Staff are a few of the activities which change their members into actors for one period a day. Each member becomes a new personality who thinks and feels as another being. At right are two very popular presidents! Donald Smith has the honor of heading the Stu- dent Council while Allison Brown is the leader of the Ad- visory Council At left are seen the four experts who serve the C O. Miss Maber Davis has charge of the Junior Red Cross: Miss Nell Foster is the G.O. Adviser: Mr. Windt and Mr. Hamburg handle the G.O. tickets. DEMOCRACY IS THEME OF G. O. CONFERENCES rUDENTS do have a voice in school government, for things O are really accomplished in the Student Council under the able leadership of our green-loving president, Donald Smith. 11 is group is composed of all the presidents and leaders of school activities, and editors of our three publications. Thus all students have repre- sentation. I lelping Don with his problems are popular Peggy Corn- well, the vice-president; fun-loving May Demarest, the secretary; and the treasurer, versatile Florence Eldredge. The G. O. had a busy year with such activities as: introducing girl cheerleaders, giving a charity “Can Dance , planning a “Courtesy Week”, and balancing the budget. In addition. Kent Martling and Harriet Anderson were sent as our representatives to the Herald Tribune Forum. A great deal of credit must be given to Don Smith and his organization for the fine work they have done this year. Orchids go to Miss Foster for keeping the entire G. O. ball rolling. The timely advice, inherent common-sense, and humor of Miss Foster help keep all happy during lively G. O. sessions. 6? The fairer sex holds three im- portant offices of the GO. May Demarest attempts to record all official business. Margaret Corn- well is Madame Vice-President, and controller of the G O. bank- roll is Plorence Eldredge. RED CROSS HELPERS TOO UNDER the able direction of Miss Davis, the Advisory Council did its bit for the Junior Red Cross. Genevieve Babinski and Don Powers were the official representatives, while Janet Redefer, Allison Brown, and Jerome Schroeter helped in an emergency. The girls knitted for the British War Relief, filled Christmas stockings, gave medical assistance to the needy needy in school, and aided in numerous other ways. Standing—Babinski, Demarest.

REGISTER ROOM REPS SPEAK FOR STUDENTS MUCH of the success enjoyed by the Advisory Council can be traced to the willingness of its indispensable adviser, Miss Foster. I Ielping the busy adviser are two hardworking gentlemen, Messrs. Windt and Hamburg. It is still a mystery to all in the Advisory Council how those two masculine financial experts man- aged to keep the books straight. Mr. Windt and Mr. Hamburg saw white, blue, and yellow G. O. tickets, with installment money, whirling before their eyes all day during the enrollment week. The histrionic president, Allison Brown, had his share of the problems; but with the help of the petite vice-president, Janet Redefer, and ambitious Donald Powers, the secretary, some of Allison's troubles became lighter. To Advisory Council meetings comes one representation from each homeroom. There are seniors, juniors, sophomores, and fresh- men having equal votes. Because of their contact with all the students in the homerooms, the representatives took charge of the distribution of the “Patriot” and also collected the contributions for the Red Cross Roll Call. Going through the homerooms for two days and extracting pennies from the allowances of their fellow students, the Council members had practice in salesmenship. The Advisory Council has two very popular officers: Janet Redefer, the charming vice- president. and Donald Powers, the handsome secretary. 67 FINAL EDITING IS DONE BY COLONIAL AFTER many conferences in the fall of 1940, produc- tion schedules were tentatively fixed, budget allow- ances made, shooting dates set, and directors assigned. 1 hen each one on the “Colonial” was ready to go ahead with his job in the editing of the super-colossal produc- tion. “Hempstead High School of 1941.” I'his year for the first time the Colonial” had co-editors, who were elected by the literary staff. They, the busy chasers of write-ups, are Dorothy Greene and Harry Gunther. Responsible for photographs, long shots and close-ups, is the very busy Dorothy Gore. The lead positions in sports were assigned to Sylvia March, Joan Archer, Stanley Abrams, and Laurence Fuller. Dependable Virginia Coon and steady Donald Powers classified and arranged the senior section of the “Colonial.” The other staff members, Muriel Hermann, Walter Newbauer, Richard Forshay, Beth Jefferson, Mildred Wyse, Eugene Duffee, Doris Howell, and George MacDowell helped with clubs, activi- ties, and classes.

The publicity department had two very successful campaigns, one for getting adver- tisements from the local merchants, and the other for getting subscriptions from the stu- dents The business staff did a splendid job w'ith its catchy slogans and clever posters. The one and only boy on the money-raising end of the Colonial” is Frank Leist. Great credit is given to William Callahan, the art director, for his clever sketches. Bill has very skilfully presented the student life in I lempstead and the corresponding activi- ties of the Hollywood stars This year, the art staff was given the necessary money for drawings in two colors. Guiding directors behind the scenes were Miss Barth, Miss Blaidell, and Miss Field who together kept the sentences, the money, and the sketches meeting the production fin- ishing dates. The art stall is admiring one of the dividers. I eft to right—Charles Walker, Prances Ann Thompson, George Mischenko. William Callahan. Jean Von Prank, Calvert Ostlund.

Briefly, the play is the story of Captain Obadiah Rich, who finds that his company plans to scrap his excursion boat because of debts. Realizing that this will ruin the Sunday afternoons of his pas- sengers, Captain Rich heads out to sea to find an island Utopia where his passengers may have the happiness they desire. As the play draws to a close, the supposed runaway ship is brought back to port, and the lives of all the passengers are readjusted. On a fair March evening the curtain slowly closed leaving a well-pleased group before the curtain and sighs of relief behind the curtain—the show was over! Special awards and orchids to Miss llinman for her second suc- cess this year and to Miss MacDougall for her capable assistance.

Ruth BischofT, Chief of the Girls' Senior Service Squad, holds a confer- ence with Assistant Chief Florence Eldredge. RECEPTIONISTS ENJOY SERVING IN OFFICE 2 EACH school day behind the counter in Office No. 2 the mem- bers of the Senior Girls’ Service Squad perform their num- erous duties in order to assist the principal and the registrar. Each girl serves one period a day and two weeks late duty during the year. The important job of typing and delivering homeroom notices is accomplished through their efforts. In this way, the whole school learns about coming events and activities. Visitors are received and assisted by this squad who also welcome bewildered new comers and show them about the school. In addition to performing such general office work as alpha- betising, the girls are sent on various office errands, and are asked to take charge of classes when teachers are unexpectedly called from the room. The twenty-four girls of this selected group fit themselves well in the plan of a business office, and, no matter what is asked of them, they are always glad to lend a hand. The Chief of the squad is Ruth Bischoff who is ably assisted by Florence Eldredge. The Adviser is Mrs. I lueston who has been in charge of the Senior Girls’ Service Squad each year since the first group was selected in 1925. 74 OFFICE HELPERS ARE BUSY SCRIPT GIRLS THE changing of classes always brings into Office No. 3 a crowd of worried-looking students who dangle crumpled white slips from their once lily-white hands. Cutting classes or performing feats of misdemeanor requires a trip to the office. The junior secretaries, the mailmen of Office No. 3, deliver those white slips to the erring students. I lowever, carrying reminders to students is only one of the many jobs of these capable girls. “May I have a late slip?” is one of the familiar requests certain to be floating on the ether waves of the oflice. Junior secretaries manage to produce the needed squares. The junior secretaries make it their object to fulfill these splendid aims: to become acquainted with office procedure, to develop skill in routine procedure, to receive people intelligently, pleasingly, and to serve them promptly and efficiently. Pleasant and charming Adele I lenrich, Chief of the staff, is aided by attractive Genevieve Babinski, assistant chief. Taking notes on the typewriter is Helen Neuschaefer, the secretary; and Muriel Brown keeps track of the elusive money. As aides to Mr. Beddow and Mr. Moore, and under the happy guidance of Mrs. Foster, the future secretaries agree that it is mighty pleasant working for the office and being at the hub of the school’s activities. Officers—Adele Henrich, Genevieve Babinski, Mur- iel Brown, Helen Neu- schaefer. Standing—Regan, Chilton, Swenson, Laxton, Kozlowski, Grabowski, Stafford, Wyse, Lee, Rhodes, Basile, Strange, Van Dohlen, Mayers, Aksel, Panaccioni.

I T’S always literary headline news when the “Quill” is published. This year’s issue is no exception. Imaginative and inspired are the minds of the ingenious students who serve on the carefully selected staff of the Quill.” The search for ideas, ideas, and more ideas seems to be the students’ main ob- jective in life, but all this comes to an end that bright day when the masterpieces are previewed. Although the “Quill” is published only in April, its entire staff is always active. The first duty this year was the selling of tickets for “Movie Crazy,” “The Scarlet Pimpernel, “The Plainsman, and “Spawn of the North.” These movies were presented in the I I.TI.S. auditorium for the purpose of raising necessary funds for the “Quill.” Competent, industrious Kent Martling occupies the seat of Editor-in-chief, and clever lorn Erhard manages the circulation and publicity. Friendly Marion Fuhr is an efficient director of the secretarial staff, and astute, skillful Christine Abbott has charge of a splendid art staff. Miss Farrior, Miss Fluff, and Miss Ford, always in the background, are ever ready with suggestions and help. Hempstead High is proud of the high quality of its literary magazine. This feeling encourages the students to remove the cob- webs from their brains, to write articles and stories, and to produce an outstanding issue of the “Quill.” Standing—Moore, Koroluck. Skinner.

Stamping books, filing cards, straightening magazines, and “reading” the shelves are daily occurrences. Answering the quiz-like questions of the various students de- mands much ingenuity, but the girls try to help with any research work. Library aides can tell anyone where to find answers to such queries: Did George Washington wear a ring? Do you suppose Tom Sawyer chewed gum? ho said, The State? I am the State!” Obtaining the names of some eighty or more students studying in the library is also a rather nerve-racking task, but then there is always the escape into the comparatively quiet halls while dis- tributing the library ships. The girls of the library staff work hard to please and to help students along the lanes of learning. I lowever, hard work agrees with these girls for they always say how much they like duty in the library. Capable Audrey Smith heads this group of junior-senior girls who are always ready to assist charming Miss Rhodes and fun- loving Miss Beattie in the libraries. The book-loving workers are eager at all times to help friendly Mrs. Anderson, who guards the textbook storeroom. Smiling Audrey Smith is the official caretaker of the Library Staff. 77 TRIUMPH I didn’t know you were capable of such a thing.” Eugene Stanton and Jan- ice Lutz. All success for the play may be given to these two capable directors: Miss llinman and Miss McDougall. “This may be the first hotel to win the Pulitzer Prize.” Thomas Maxwell, Betty Jane Davie, Douglas Walker. Tim Boyne, Iiugene Pugatz, and Melvin Levy. BY ABLE JUNIORS A HUSH falls over an expectant audience; lifted faces glow with anticipation. The curtain slowly rises and the lights in the auditorium grow dim as the opening lines of the first Junior Class play come across the footlights. At last the ambitious Juniors have had a chance to shine and to display their histrionic talent before their schoolmates. The cast has made dramatic history with its brilliant presentation of the scintillating Murray-Bortez comedy, “Room Service,” and has left a very high mark for future generations of Juniors to shoot at. I leading the star-studded cast of this superb produc- tion, was curly-headed Tommy Boyne, a newcomer to Hempstead High. His was the role of Gordon Miller, a broke but optimistic play producer. Equally outstanding were lanky John O’Sullivan, as excitable Mr. Gribble, man- ager of the White Way Hotel; and bespectacled Eugene Stanton, as Leo Davis, the aspiring playwright from Up Oswego, way.” Harry Binion, Miller’s director and Faker Englund, a burly assistant, were portrayed by Melvin Levy and John Harrigan, respectively. Faced with the possibility of being forcibly evicted with all their cast from the White Way Hotel, Binion and Eng- lund are vainly looking for a backer for their coming Ushers for the Junior Play: Dorothy Gore, Jane Wollcnweber, Margaret Schmitt, Elaine Moore, Virginia Mertz, June Thornton, Virginia Coon, Robert Smith, Charles Aydt, Arthur Ingald. Frank Donnelly, Richard Forshay, Kenneth Baker. Norman Andersen. 78 production. To make matters worse, Davis, the playwright, comes to New York. Naturally, lie moves in on Miller at the hotel, infuriating Crib- ble and Wagner (Eugene Pugatz), one of the hotel directors. Both men are hounding Miller for his hotel bill. However, to the rescue comes Christine Mar- lowe (Betty Jane Davie), star of Miller’s play, who procures a backer, Mr. Simon Jinkins (Allen Keller). Overcoming their remaining difficulties. Miller and his company produce their extrava- ganza, which turns out to be a great hit. The minor roles of the play, chosen with great care, were splendidly performed by Janice Lutz, Sidney Boikess, William O’Sullivan, Charles Walker, Thomas Maxwell, and Douglas Walker. Of course, no performance of a play would be complete without those gracious ladies and gentle- men who so courteously escort us to our seats. I mean the ushers who are headed by popular Norman Andersen and attractive Virginia Coon. All in all, a great deal of credit must be given to everyone who participated in this performance: stage assistants, makeup artists, and all who worked under the able direction of Miss Hin- mann and Miss MacDougall. “ The kidnapped one is found at last. Stanton, Harrigan, Boyne, Levy, Pugatz, Janice Lutz, Walker, J. O'Sullivan, and A. Keller. God speed. O'Sullivan, Boyne, Levy, Pugatz, J. O’Sullivan, J.

Suddenly he is roused to reality by the appearance of a campus cop. Does Romeo tread? Oh! No! The Campus Patrol is on hand every day of the year, for neither rain nor sleet stops it from punctilious pursuance of its duties. In the spring or fall, gallant gate-guardians patrol the campus walks; in winter, they are content to stay inside keeping a wary eye peeled for lazy lawbreakers. The hardest job of the Campus Patrol is keeping the walks clear during periods. Large crowds of students think that when the period is nearing a close it is imperative for them to crowd the doors. Needless to say, these mobs are halted by our campus police. Chief executive of these roving cops is handsome Laurin March. He is assisted by blond Bill Reusch. I'he post of secretary-treasurer is handled by popular Anthony Stabile. The organization is under the firm hand of our magical wizard, Mr. Schem. With ids guidance the Campus Patrol is able ff kegp up jits good work and reputation. Officers—Anthony Stabile. Wil- liam Reusch, Laurin March.

CRIES SEATING CREW IN CENTER!” “Single file, please!” To one not initiated in the ways of Hempstead High, these commands sound like much jumbled jargon. However, when one of the souls who abound in this hall of learning hears these injunctions, he immediately con- tinues on his way after the guileless guide. The gigantic job of getting these straggling students through the two wide doors which lead to the auditorium is capably han- dled by the boys of the Assembly Squad. I lerding the hordes of students to the seats for an assembly pro- gram is just one of the numerous bits of work which must be done by the squad boys. Every Wednesday the boys meet in room 19 and receive their assignments. I lowever, before this can be done, the chief is handed a list of the classes which are going to assembly, and he must plan a route for each class to follow. The chief has certain members go to the different classes and invite them to go on the correct date. When the invitations are completed, all runs smoothly, well—almost. The organization is headed by versatile Jack Mann who is assisted by popular Arthur Cameron. I handsome P. G. Laurin March is the keeper-of-the-coins. (Do they ever have any?) Under the helpful direction of Mr. Schem. this squad may rightfully be called one of our most important activities. 82 MUSIC OF CHORISTERS BRINGS CONTENTMENT IN THE movies, music is a low harmony moving gracefully with the action on the scene. In the production, “Hempstead High School of 1941,” the A Cappella Choir has a very important part. The sounds of the Choir blend into the great humming music of the school. It is not often that our Choir emerges from its place of seclusion in the background, the Bandbox, to take that coveted place, the spotlight before the camera. T his year our choral organization has made several appearances before many of Hempstead’s concert-going citizens. Perhaps the most celebrated scene was made this autumn when the A Cappella Choir gave a brilliant performance of “The Ballad for Americans.” However, it cannot be said that it is only the voices of the singers or their music that has been behind the sparkle of their per- formances. For even if the sounds that come from the throats of the choristers are the body of the group, then its mind and heart is Miss Esther McQueen, the conductor of the A Cappella Choir. The living rhythms do not come of themselves. It is the untiring work of the director who shapes chaotic swells of sound into a beautiful richness of music. The students of Hempstead High and hundreds of people in- terested in fine music have enjoyed every appearance of the talented Choir and its charming, capable director, Miss McQueen.

FOOD, FUN DOMINATE COMMISSARY HOLLYWOOD stars must eat; Hempstead students consider food a necessity. Only careful consideration of the waist line limits the consuming ability of the student body. Daily, boys and girls are lured down to our commissary by delicious aromas per- vading the otherwise business-like halls of learning. Once safely inside, the guileless figure doesn’t stand a chance. I he service is quick and efficient. for the pleasant helpers are always willing to get a glass of water or to see if there isn't just one more tuna sandwich left. These pretty assistants of Miss Powell are an added attraction while one is eating the wonderful home cooking. By the way, if you haven't already discovered this fact for yourself, well, the nutbread is especially recommended as true food for the stars. To go from the aesthetic to the more earthly, the reckoning is added up at the end of the food counter, and the proper amount must be given to one of the four handsome cashiers. For those with a sweeter nature, there is the candy counter. In spite of many toothsome delicacies, gum is conspicuously absent from this counter. Aren’t students capable of masticating gum genteelly enough? Awards go to Miss Powell, Mrs. Goldy, the cooks, and the mem- bers of the cafeteria squad for their “Service with a Smile.” Third Ron—Cutler, Hahn. Kelly, Pappert. Second Ron—Oilman. Clanton.

THIRD FLOOR AIDES ASSIST IN ROOM 80 WANTED in Room 80, right away. This oft-repeated phrase instills terror in the hearts of some students while others are not even disturbed by the message. Secretive as it may sound, the notice simply means that a certain boy or girl is wanted in the office of the Grade Advisers so that he or she may receive some help- ful advice concerning school work. The Adviser Aides are students who have been chosen by the Grade Advisers for their good qualities. The aides not only conduct students to Room 80, but they also record all interviews given to students. Frequently the aides check the students’ records. In addi- tion to these duties, many helpful secretarial jobs are performed by the aides for the faculty advisers. Evelyn Jordon is the capable Chief of the Aides, and she is helped by Mary Carman, the assistant chief. Thomas Harris is the secretary, and Janet Grace holds the wealth of the aides. Miss Silver is the amicable faculty-adviser to this busy organiza- tion. She is always ready to help the teachers and the aides w'hen they are befuddled by a new' problem. Although the Adviser Aides work quietly, they carry out their duties in a very efficient and confidential manner. Much important work is accomplished in a minimum of time. Officers—Mary Carman, Thomas Harris, Evelyn Jordon, Janet Grace. 85 Clarinets: Kleeman. Johnson. Sadoski, Oberkresser, Dahl. Sommers, Red field, Scharfenberg, Burns, Rode, Bensen, Levine, R. Dorn.

BAND BLENDS NOTES INTO VARIED MEDLEYS Tooting the tuba is Edward Sexton's pastime. MARCHING proudly down the field after their strutting and high-stepping drum majorettes, playing to cheering crowds of fellow students at pep meetings, and thrilling capacity-filled audiences at their concerts are the activities of our great Band. One of the finest on Long Island, this group of musicians is under the able direction of Miss Boyle, assisted by Mr. Kazmier Albinski. Although connected with the entire music department, Mr. Al- binski is most closely associated with the Band. He has the entire brass section under his guidance, and he devises all the formations which the Band takes in its exhibitions on the gridiron. However, the Army is our successor, for on February 13, Mr. Albinski was drafted for a year’s service. Meanwhile, Mr. Edward Nowak of Springfield, Mass., is filling the vacant place. Before coming to Hempstead, Mr. Nowak was a professional trumpet player, having appeared as a concert trumpeter on the radio and as a soloist with orchestras. Most of us think of our Band only as an organization which marches and plays at football games and parades. This is partly true, but once the football season is over, the Band changes so that one finds an entirely different organization; this is the Symphonic Band. 86 Horns: Stafford. Ricker, Kane.

Among those selections played were Overture to the New Moon” by Romberg, and Gershwin’s ever popular Rhapsody in Blue.” Two selections from “Pictures at an Exhibition” by Modeste Moussorgsky opened the Band’s portion of the music department’s concert of February 9. Kenneth Kleeman, one of our fine musicians who has twice won national contests for the clarinet, had the solo part in the Concerto for Solo Clarinet and Band” by von Weber. The clarinet again took the lead in Rimsky Korsakov’s “Flight of the Bumble Bee.” Climaxing this brilliant program was a new tone poem “Amer- ica” written by Ernest Williams, a well-known American com- poser and conductor. The composition was sung and played jointly by the A Cappella Choir and Band. Maintaining its high standard of music presentation, the Sym- phonic Band, at its final concert on March 23, presented a varied program, including the stirring “Triumphal March” from the Sigurd Jorsalfer Suite by Edward Grieg, and the renowned Fly- ing Dutchman Overture by Richard Wagner. As guest soloist, Walter Latinski, a Hempstead High alumnus, played the sprightly “Cadet Polka for Solo Cornet and Band.” Winding up the season in a “blaze of glory,” the Band took part in the dramatic presentation of the development of American music. 87 These high-stepping drum major- ettes lead our band.

ORCHESTRA INTERPRETS MELODIC MASTERPIECES FIERCE crescendos, swift rhythmic passages, and plaintive melodies issue forth from the instruments of ninety-five inspired musicians who make up our great Symphonic Orchestra. The mem- bers are only fellow students, but under the guidance of Miss I mo- gene Boyle, they become inspired players performing music which stirs every one of us. Each year since she has been with our school, Miss Boyle has produced a fine orchestra, and 1941 is no exception. She works diligently at her favorite indoor activity, and she deserves much credit for her wonderful results. On Sunday afternoon, December 15, the Orchestra, with the Band, A Cappella Choir, and Girls’ Glee Club, presented at the annual winter concert, a program of distinctly American music. Included in the program were “Fantasy on the Opera Natoma” by Victor Herbert, a light operatic piece; the rhythmic Second Movement” from the Rhumba Symphony by I lari McDonald, one of our most noted modern composers; and Roy Harris' “When Johnnie Comes Marching Home,” a stirring piece built on the old Civil War tune. Ringing up another first, the Orchestra, at the second concert given February 9, played the complete, famed Symphony No. 4 by Peter Tschaikowsky, a thrilling masterpiece which is sometimes Violins: D.

Also included on the program was the “Concerto for Oboe and String Orchestra’’ written by John Barbirolli on themes by the classicist Pergolesi. The oboe soloist for this piece, Mr. Antonio Coppola, is the first oboe player of Radio City Symphony. Mr. Coppola’s rendition was superb and an inspiration to the strug- gling high school student. After much diligent practice every sixth period and a few extra rehearsals, the Orchestra again participated in a concert held on March 23, given for the benefit of the Parent-Teachers Associa- tion Scholarship fund. For the first time in the history of the music department, a Sunday concert was not presented free of charge to the public. However, those who attended (and there was a capacity audience) were well rewarded with a splendid program. THE first two movements from Dvorak's famous “New World Symphony” headed the orchestra’s sparkling repertoire, which also included a novelty arrangement of the traditional folk tune “Turkey in the Straw” by Guion.

A panoramic review, the complete record of Hemp- stead High sporting activities for the i94o-’4i season, is aptly illustrated with stills and action shots taken during the year on the sports’ location. As time passes by, it is our sincere wish that a glance at these pages will kindle memories of the sportsmanship and the fighting spirit which have become associated with athletics at Hempstead ligh. kmmm Behold the Tiger with the hand- some cheerleaders: Doug Walker.

Mr. Alfred Nilsson keeps his eyes on the two peppy groups of cheerleaders. NEW FEATURE ADDED! GIRL CHEERLEADERS ROAR, TIGER, ROAR! A striking new feature was added to the cheerleaders this year. On Monday morning, February tenth, a sneak preview of the girl cheerleaders was shown in the auditorium. The blue and white costumes are striking! Under the able direction of Mr. Nilsson, Captain Charles sent the girls through their routines. Win or lose, the Tiger teams are urged to do their best when cheered along by these two groups of cheerleaders. Now let's give all cheerleaders who yell themselves hoarse all year round the rousing cheers which they justly deserve. Cheerleaders not present in the above picture are Charles Pear- son, Louis Neustad, Donald Powers, Warren Marquardt, Donald March, John Stankiewicz, Robert Smith, John O'Sullivan, Robert Goldsmith, Thomas Maxwell, Edward Kenny, Harold Winters, John McConlogue, William Jacobs, John Zaraton, Lawrence Ber- tram, John Breeze, John Greenley, Edward Aksel, Stephan Ettin- ger, James Cormack, and Theodore Fendentz. 93 G ach Fay had an able assistant, but the U. S. Army took Mr. White for a year. TIGERS SHOW THEIR STAMINA AND POWER C OME on Blue, come on White” filled the crisp autumn air j once again as the gallant warriors of Hempstead High took up their duties of gridiron warfare for the 1040 campaign. While the season was in its infancy, Coach Joe Fay. inaugurating his third decade as head mentor of the Tigers, found before him a group of fresh, eager, and talented newcomers who filled the gaps made by those veterans who had left school the previous year. To open the festivities, the Bengals went traveling to Connecticut to meet a highly touted Stamford squad. Captain Charles Neenan tallied twice for the Tigers, but this was not enough to overcome fickle Dame Fortune. A last minute surge provided the Stamfordites with their slight margin of victory, 13-12. In the second contest of the year a very improved Freeport team, taking advantage of every opportunity afforded them, succeeded in taming the Tigers, 20-6. Ed Sexton scored the lone 1 Iempstead tally on a brilliant run in the final period. Sewanhaka came next on the schedule. The breaks once again seemed to be against the Bengals all the way, for the Indians turned a recovered fumble into the only score of the day and won, 6-0. Ace footballers pictured below are: Front Row—Janulewicz. Neenan. Lagakis, Schuessler, Lewis, Schlegel, Brown. Hack Row—Folz, St. Onge, Klasek. Sexton. With a rejuvenated lineup the Blue and White tackled a shifty Baldwin eleven. St. Onge scored early for the Faymen, but a bad pass from center, recovered by Baldwin, evened up the count at 6-6. Throughout the game the Tigers kept pounding away,'and twice the 94 whistle alone kept them from scoring. In the final period a last minute desperate field goal gave Baldwin the game, g-6. Glen Cove, the next opponent, felt the weight of the Tigers’ pent-up power. Scoring in the second period on a plunge by Folz, the Bengals took the lead. A long pass evened up the game for the Covers, but I lempstead power was not to be denied as Sexton skirted the end for a touchdown, and Folz added the extra point to make the score 13-6 in favor of I lemp- stead. The Tigers, once rolling, could not be stopped. Sexton and St. Onge tallied in the first fourteen minutes of play against the Flyers of Chaminade, and coupled with Folz’s extra point, the score read 13-0 in favor of the Blue and White. To cap their sudden rush to glory, the Bengals routed a previously undefeated Westbury eleven on their own field. Stan Klasek, on a hard line plunge, provided the Bengals with their only score. A great defensive effort on the part of the Blue and White brought another victory to Hempstead. This was a K$:ry fitting way ttfTinish the 1940 campaign. The Bengals played with skill and power. Even in the losing games the team showed its good fighting spirit. Bertram Patterson, Douglas Maure, John Welsch, and Donald Archer are the backbone of the Tiger squad. Benny Janulewicz gets a few pointers from Coach Fay. Mr. White evidently agrees. This year’s team did nobly and deserves the gratitude of every member of the student body. 95 GALLANT QUINTET FOUGHT GAMELY A FLICK of the wrist and the ball is in the air. Swish— a roar comes from the crowd, and another two points are chalked up on the score board. Yes, you've guessed it, basketball. Although the season’s record shows a total of two wins and twelve losses, it wasn’t so bad as one would think. The Bennermen really made every game as close as they could, but with the bad breaks, they dropped twelve in a row. Starting the season with a one-point win over the cagers of Westbury, 25 to 24, and swamping Farmingdale, 33 to 21, the Bengals looked as if they were off on a highly suc- cessful campaign. A disheartening loss to Garden City spelled disaster to the Tiger quintet. The boys didn't win another game; however, they tried bravely. It always seemed that one more minute and a few more baskets would have sufficed for a victory. The individual scorings were as follows: Ritchie, 64; Koehler, 51; Carota, 42; Bicknell, 37; Jones, 21; St. Onge, 16; Wasson, 9; Schlegel, 8; Nordinger, 2; Andersen, 2; Lagakis, 1; Ostrofsky, o; Roche, o; Sawicki, o; and Kalo- dinsky, o. Let’s hope that fickle dame, Lady Luck, doesn’t desert us and that the Bennermen will go ahead next year and win more games for the honor of the Blue and White. Best of luck to the whole team! Seated—Smith, Bicknell, Koehler, Jones, Ritchie. Standing—Cameron, Ostrofsky, Pepper. Andersen, Nordinger, Wasson, Lagakis, Schlegel, Roche, Riley, Tobin. 96 First Row—Fairweather, St. Onge, Gibson, McNally, Sexton. Second Row—Diaz. Packard, Schuessler, Vogel, Brown. Ritchie. Third Row—Smith, Scarpinato, Hamilton. Ziminski, Kelskey, Jones, Kostynick, Mr. Fay (Coach). BENGAL BATTERS BEWILDER RIVALS ENDING the 1940 campaign with a very enviable record of 11 wins and 3 losses, the I lempstead Tigers took their place among the great teams of Hempstead High. Behind the powerful hurling staff composed of McNally, Packard, and Vazzano, the Faymen turned back every team at least once. The games on the wrong side of the ledger were losses to Freeport, Sewanhaka, and Stamford. This year’s Co-captain Bob St. Onge captured the batting honors with .511, while Co-captain Herb Kelske was runner-up with .426. Last year’s captain, Nick Vogel, and diminutive Tom Ritchie batted a cool .407. Gordon Pack- ard, mainstay of the pitching staff, boasted of an even .400 for the year. Combined with a hard-hitting attack and great defensive play, the Bengals rolled up 106 runs while the opposition could only break through with 22. The I lempsteadites high score was one over this. They scored 23 runs in two games, both of which were against St. Dominic’s, 23 to 4, and 23 to o. Credit for such a remarkable team goes to Coach Fay who has once more turned out a fine record. Since the 1941 season hasn’t started at this writing, we can’t be sure about victory; how'ever, we are certain that this year’s team will hit a fine stride. “Strike one! Strikes or outs—we give our cheers to the fine baseball team. 07 First Row—Priebc, Pappas, Tew, Maerki, McConlogue, Kirsch. Wasson.

TIGER WRESTLERS GRUNT AND GROAN AMID the phrasings of half-Nelsons, leg vines, and half . strangle-crotch holds, the Hempstead Matmen dili- gently practiced every afternoon and tried to improve their form for the coming matches. Captained by John McConlogue, weight 105 pounds, the team, with very little experience under its belt, tried gal- lantly to get in the win column. However, the nearest victory came when the boys tied with Garden City, 23 to 23. Coached by Mr. Nilsson, the boys who most consistently won were Charles Wasson, 175 pounds, and Donald Lewis, 185 pounds. Several times Bob Schuessler came through with a few points. In their opening match, the grapplers of H. H. S. were set back by Amity ville, 38 to 18. Next came a defeat at the arms of Mepham, the county champs. The grunters of Mepham proved their superiority by overcoming the Nils- sonmen by 40 to o. After dropping losses to Sewanhaka and Central, the boys tied with Garden City. Following these games, the grunters were defeated by wrestlers from Bayshore and Mepham. Although only a young activity, wrestling will become a top-notch sport for the young grapplers who are willing to improve their hugging technique. 98 CUBS TRIUMPH ONCE again the fighting Cubs proved that they were one of the top-flight J. V. squads around these parts. Under the fine direction of Mr. Schem, the boys finished the season with a record of three wins and one loss. The J. V. gridders inaugurated their campaign with a 6-0 win over Sewanhaka. A decision, a very close one, 7-6, gave the next game to Baldwin. Preeport, long a jinx on the Hempstead Squad, was not a match for the Cubs. It was an 18-0 vic- tory. The J. V.’s concluded their schedule with another victory, 319-13 decision over Great Neck. Seated—Martling. Pease. Lang. Velsor. Bedell, Sluszka, Wilson. Kneeling— Orgass, Fairweather, O'Leary, Walker, Mendelsohn, Goodheim, Cameron, Yulico, Coffey, March. Standing—Mr. Schem (Coach), Doerwald, Douglas, Munn, Schaper, Lawrence, McNally, Ratuszney, Lombardo, Sealey, Loving- ton, Donnelly. J. V. SHOTMAKERS Standing—Rogers, Kyranakis. Wiechowski, Zubowich, O'Day, ilunka, Brun- ing. Fendentz, Sawicki. Kneeling—Pitner, Peterson, Schiess, Baker. Mac- Donald, Targe, Castelli. THE short night schedule gave the peppy jay vees only five opportuni- ties to play this year. In every game the first half of the play was very close, but the lack of reliable reserves allowed the opponents to score heavily in the second half. The result was five losses. Many of the 1941 varsity men will graduate and thus make the jay vee men prominent in next year’s basketball team. Men who will no longer be on the team are Fendentz, Sawicki, Stanley e out in Kyranakis, O’Day, Wiechowski, Breuning, Schiess, fbd Baker ZubowichfcJJliis star, wit b the world oY busies next yed 99 OVER THE NET WITH a surplus of driving power and an assortment of cuts and slices, the I lempstead netmen asserted them- selves as one of the better teams in the local scholastic competition. The Tigers’ record of 5 wins and 5 defeats included three matches which were lost by the slim margin of one game. Mr. Levine, able coach of the team and no mean athlete, puts the boys through their paces and rounds the team into shape. Helms, captain of the squad, with Stof- fle, Frank, Buck, Wolf, Friedman, Storrs, and Forshay represented the Blue and White in its matches. 1 Ennis I eam : George Wolf, Bud Storrs, Richard Forshay, Jay Friedman, Richard Wollenherger. Golf Team: Brian McCree. Rocchio, Rudy Guida. Alfred Doerwald, Mr. F. Adviser), John CLUB AND BALL VELVETY greens and warm breezes helped the golfers make an enviable record of 12 wins and 4 losses for 1940. Under the capable direction of Mr. Faust and captained by Mathews, the Hempstead golfers defeated every team that they faced at least once, and they made clean sweeps of the matches with Garden City, Freeport, and Chaminade. The Tigers won by a four to one margin over many other opponents. The ace linksmen who are not fat and forty are Guida, McCree, Doerwald, Roc- cio, and Mathews. We wonder how many of these boys keep their scores around 70. 100 WINGED SPIKES ' 'O-CAPTAINED by Alec Houston V_ and Dick Neuffer, the Hempstead High Track Team had a successful season last year. They won two dual meets and placed second and third in triangular meets. The most thrilling event came when I lempstead defeated Freeport by one point. The Relay Race decided which school should win. Hempstead won with the combination of Alberga, Korf, Hous- ton. and Mossa. Other prominent track- sters were Norman Andersen, Alveoid I lisbrady, six-foot-high jumper; Joe and Henry Baclawski, Frank Korf, Ted I Ier- man, Ted Magee, Charles Desch, and Laurin March.

NIMRODS SCORE ROLLING up an impressive record of ten wins and five defeats, the Hemp- stead High Rifle Team became one of the foremost teams on Long Island by placing second in the Nassau Interscholastic Rifle League. Coach Mr. J. Lawrence Cummings had them practice until they soon were out- shooting the records of last year’s squad. Much is to be said in praise of the fine managing performed by Bill Reusch. The highest individual scores were made by the Rifle Club’s president, Robert Blackford, who shot two perfect ioo’s against Oceanside and Farmingdale. 101 Left to Right—Margaret Cornwell.

TOP-NOTCH IN CLASS AND ON SPORT FIELD WELL, it looks as though these girls have done it again! The sports crowns for this year have fallen into the hands of the eleven fair stars posed in the above picture. The girls’ sport leaders are chosen within their own groups by the girls who are an active part of that group. The tennis group chose red-headed Tyler Collins for their leader, while dark haired Kathryn Stern heads the horseback riding. Donna Wanke leads the “baby” sport of Hempstead High, bowling. Those energetic girls who can be seen coasting all over on their bikes elected Ruth Bischoff to lead them in their wanderings; vivacious Peggy Cornwell has the responsibility of the gym aides on her capable shoulders. Doris Denton is the queen of the roller skating gang, and Florence (Goody) Goodwin is leading the basket- bailers. When the baseball season rolls around, IVlay Demarest will be out after school with a ball and bat, and, of course, the rest of her team. Hildegarde Lowe captained the hockey squads all during their conquests last fall. Lillian Goldberg is the head of the Greek Games for this year, and Eleanor Patterson bangs the shuttle cock back and forth across the nets in the girls’ gym after school. 102 SUPERVISING IS FUN WHEN CAST IS READY | | AVE you rubber-soled shoes on?” “How many times have you 11 been told to wear white blouses with your gym suits?” Off- hand one might think that the persons speaking were crabs. But no, they’re just the gym aides checking upon some bewildered pupils. The Gym Aide Association is composed of athletically inclined girls who are willing to give up a reasonable portion of their time to calming down the often unruly freshies and attempting to teach them the fundamentals of various games. The sophomores and juniors often need admonitions too. I'he glamour gals of the gym are required to pass tests this year on the rudiments of baseball, basketball, volley-ball, handball, and all individual sports. Evidently these checkers are required to have a little gray matter up in that usual vacuum space. At the end of the athletic season, Eleanor Vogel, the vice-president and general handywoman, is delegated to the job of providing good things to eat and of having interesting entertainment at the various spreads. Oh! Peggy Cornwell, the vivacious but petite president, was almost forgotten. She is the one who gives pep-talks to the girls and who has the wholehearted cooperation and support of those capable female athletes, Miss MacCallum and Miss Loew.

When the air is warm and clear, the sophomore, junior, and senior girls bring out their racquets and lob the balls. Eight girls from each class are chosen from a tryout, and the fall tournament class winner is determined by the elimi- nation games. Peggy Cornwall received the coveted honor. Miss MacCallum and Miss Loew watch the games from the sidelines, and the student leader, Tyler Collins, directs the games. Second Circle—Babinski, O'Donnell, Demarest, McGovern, O'Leary, Wilson, M.

DROP THE BALL TO THE junior honor team goes the award for the basketball year. Betty Kenny, the junior leader, took her team over into the winning side by defeating the senior team and its leader, Dorothy Green. At the yearly basketball spread, the first letter ever given for 150 points was pre- sented to Peggy Cornwall. Other awards, monograms for 100 points, were given to Ora Mae Abney, Ernestine Wilson, Lil- lian Goldberg, Ethel Peterson, and Helen Janulweicz, the first junior girl to receive a monogram. A very successful season was completed under the leadership of Elorence Goodwin. 104 TWO ON A BIKE A TI'I IOUGH bicycling is fine for re- ducing, most of the riders joined for the sheer pleasure of pedaling and for that stiff feeling that comes the next day. The Bike Nike Club was originally intended to be one for walking and riding. Now the girls ride the rented bicycles which vary in size and make. It is not unusual when the girls have tandems and boys’ bikes. Every Eriday the girls pedal off to some remote place.

Four days every week a station wagon carries a large group of upper- classmen to the Parkway Riding Academy. Following the directions of capable in- structors with a final “Keep heels down!” and “Sit erect!” the girls ride off for an exhilarating prance around the Lake State Park. As a closing event of the season, this year’s club will participate in a gala horse show. Capable Kathryn Stern is the stu- dent leader, while friendly Miss Silver and scientifically inclined Miss Beighley act as directors. 105 NOT FOR THE PRIZE BUT FOR THE SPORT Q'ALVE, Eros, benignissimum deum amoris” starts the annual O Greek Games, which are fashioned after the old Greek custom of competitive sport, and are held in surroundings similar to those one would expect to find on a Roman field day.” At the Temple of the Gods, Roberta Fass and Joan Scheff. the priestess of the Sophomore and Freshmen Classes, stand. After a number by the creative class dancers, the sophomore priestess speaks to Eros, the God of Love and patron of the games, while the freshman priestess administers the oath to the athletes. Immediately, the class challenger, Beth Jefferson, dashes across to the freshmen, challenging them to a contest of hurdling for form, discus for form, hoop racing, horse races, and exhibitions. Constance Ashe of the class of ’43 accepts the challenge. After each event of hurdling, discus throwing, hoop racing, and torch racing, the winners are announced amid cheers from the contestants. Then comes the entrance of the horses for the exhibi- tion and finally the horse race. Wild shrieks of delight greet the winners as the captains of the winning teams kneel at the temple for their laurel crowns. The games end with the victorious side following its chariot around the floor and off the field as the team sings the victory song of the Greeks. Left to Right—Lillian Goldberg.

BRAVE AMAZONS PLAY DESPITE RAW WEATHER HEN fall conies to Hempstead High, the hockey sticks and pucks appear once more. Because hockey is the first sport of the season for girls, that is the reason for its popularity. At any rate many enthusiastic girls go out for this hard-hitting game. The girls play from September until the middle of November, and the weather really gets rather chilly at that time. None of them seems to mind the raw air even though the watching sport fans have chills running up and down their spines. 1 he shin busters must keep up a temperature as they race around the field after the elusive wooden ball. A group of warm-blooded students went to Great Neck where it entered the hockey contest as well as other events. Since it was the close of the hockey season, that sport naturally held the interest of all. Our Amazons won two out of three games, coming in second. An examination was given, and the girls who passed were able to referee the games. Soon after the field events, the usual hockey spread was given. How those bold shin whackers can eat! Athletic llildegarde Lowe presided over the feast. As long as there’s hockey at IT. H. S„ there will be girls who will brave the cold weather and get a lot of fun out of this fine sport. 107 First Row—Daly, Staples. Green, M. Dieterich. F. Dieterich, Smith. Second Row—McGovern.

HIT THE BALL HARD AT THE conclusion of last year’s baseball spread, May Demarest was elected the 1941 student leader of the female DiMaggios. This year the season will be terminated by a “Sports Day” when three other schools will be the guests on Hempstead’s field. Other activi- ties will be featured, but Baseball will be the king of the day. Then don’t forget that big spread of food! AND ROUND THEYGO OVER the floor they go with the greatest of ease. Who? The girls of the Roller Skat- ing Club. Each Wednesday a group of girls under the ample wing of Miss Layton, a figure teacher, and Doris Denton, a student leader, roll off on the bus to Mineola. At the skating rink, the girls cavort around the floor, waltzing, fox-trotting, falling, and whirling gracefully to the tempo of the music. Third Row—Docke.

Miss Rowles and Miss Silver are the amiable direc- tors who help each girl to better her score. Every Wednesday afternoon is spent at lleineman’s Alley where the girls are rapidly making bowling a major constellation in the star-studded sport sky. HIT THOSE BIRDIES THE Badminton birds have flown to the top in their second year of flight. Four days a week were allotted to the feathered-cork chasers. Two tournaments were necessary to give all the girls an opportunity to compete.

There are several types of clubs for the students: educational, honorary, and recreational. Looking at the clear photos, coupled with brief but complete write-ups, one has a lucid view of what is behind-the-scenes in club life. To many the experience gained in these school organizations will serve as a basis for the pattern of later life. ■ _ ill o r r, ' •jVi ON-- ‘ — • fj BHiT Ol Sb i y hirst Row Maher. Coon. March. M.

TOPS IN SCHOLARSHIP THE MARK WE AIM AT ELECTED to the elite are these brainy stars who are the well- established players in Hempstead High. Somehow the girls have gathered a veritable mine of information and rate high in their marks. I he I lempstead I ligh School I landbook is planned and edited by a group of these honor big-wigs. Pleasingly clever Florence Eldredge was the Editor-in-Chief this year, and musical Doris McBurnie was the Business Manager. Service is the word for the Pen and Inkers. When you're at a basketball, baseball, or football game, and you feel the urge for candy or gum—well—right there is a Pen and Ink girl who has your change ready. In addition to keeping up the good work,” many of these ambitious girls are indispensibie to Office No. 2 and No. 3. Seldom do we find a cast of officers like the one of this honor society. All envy the slimness and poise of the production head. Harriet Anderson; popular, athletic Peggy Cornwell assists her whenever necessary. Notes are aptly recorded by brain-truster Marina Botkin, and tall Adele I Ienrich capably cares for the money- bags. Contrary to all belief that a lady should be the adviser-director, Mr. Pill has undertaken the job of keeping these girls from becom- ing too sober at their conferences.

ERUDITE MENTORS SAY “SUPERCOGMONOGICAL” E' VEN after two or three years in school, there are still some male wizards who have not succumbed to the terrible hardships and pitfalls of learning. These junior and senior boys are grouped to- gether under the sign of the five-sided figure, the Pentagon, and friendly “Pop” 11 ayes. Charged with the responsible task of directing this group of “whizzes,” we find curly-haired Harold Hahn. I lis executive staff is quiet vice-president Warren Johnson, and I lerbert Somek, script boy and cashier. Service to the school is the chief aim of the Pentagon. Covering I lempstead and the surrounding territory, these boys, under the direction of Herbert Somek. solicited ads for the Senior Play pro- gram. Each boy is on the Assembly Squad; all of them, in their spare periods, cheerfully assist in the library. However, there are just rewards for lads who use a little more “gray-matter” or do a little more traipsing around town for ads. At the end of the year, the Pentagon presents a scholarship of $50 to the deserving senior member of the club. Two beautiful gold keys go to two other boys who have done outstanding work in school. Inaugurating a new' award this year, the club also presents two smaller keys for service to the club and school. 114 WHAT A SATISFACTION TO KNOW SOMETHING! INSPIRED by their high mentality, the pretty sophomore girls (they’re all pretty) who form the Pallas Club concluded the first meeting by deciding that they wanted to raise money. A very original idea, we assure you, but the girls didn’t stop there. We said these girls had brains, didn't we? In the first place, the girls decided on the object for their earnings, the buying of victrola records of famous scenes in drama, for use in English and speech classes. Then the drudgery of money raising was transformed to a rollicking good time by some brilliant ideas. The first accomplishment was the auctioning at their Christmas party of gifts submitted by the members. A second attempt to increase the size of the treasury was the idea of sponsoring a Hen Party. The idea became a reality and was readily accepted by the student body. Every high school girl, if accompanied by the necessary fee, was invited; the party proved to be a big success. Entertainment was provided by the talented girls themselves. Altogether, the Pallas Club served a successful year under the capable direction of Annette Koehn, with Louise Mortenson assist- ing. Cute, blonde Marguerite Duffy was made the scribe, while the money was placed in the efficient hands of Lucille Lalmont. To the girls, fun-loving Miss Cantfil is a well-liked adviser and producer.

These beautiful, brainy, talented starlets have banded together with their director, Miss I laskins, to promote scholarship among themselves and, incidentally, have fun while doing it. Officers—Irene Nolan. Arline Mc- Intosh. Margaret Maier. Carol Sandford. At the first conference, a race was started for top honors in the club. After the votes were counted, pretty, charming Margaret Maier won the office of president. To aid and abet her, Arlene McIntosh, an alluring blonde, received the role of vice-president. The other offices are filled by friendly Irene Nolan, secretary, and dramatically inclined Carol Sanford in that of money counter. To prove that there was a method in their madness, the club members decided early in the year upon a superior entertainment committee and a worthy goal to be attained. Every penny in the exchequer is to be saved for these: a floodlight to be placed at the side entrance of the Bandbox, a picture for the school, and a prize for the freshman girl who makes the highest average. Some of the high spots of the year were a Christmas party, a talk, “Scholarship,” given by Mrs. 1 lueston, the Registrar: a talk by Miss Cantfil on Colleges and Preparing for Them,” a hobby meeting, and a white elephant raffle.

BRIGHT BRAINY BOYS INSPIRE CLASSMATES - WITH scholarship as their aim and service their ideal, the happy-go-lucky and brilliant sophs included in the exclusive Junto use their brains for the benefit of the entire school. The club motto might well be “Service and a Mile.” for the extra duties of the boys are far and wide. It was a clever idea to place in the Cafeteria a receptacle for tinfoil to be given to the British War Relief. The Junto Club members help the athletic department by dis- tributing posters which announce the football, basketball, and base- ball games of Hempstead High. These posters are welcomed by many of the owners of stores in the shopping area of I lempstead. Juntonians are Jacks of all trades” when it comes to giving a lend- ing hand to teachers. I lelping in the libraries and delivering home- work assignments to pupils who are ill are two big jobs for the sophs. Quiet, capable Lawrence Drake was unanimously chosen to pre- side as president of the monthly meetings. An equally capable stand-in answers to the name of Jay Friedman. Robert Swick ac- cepted, by the consent of the entire club, that all-important position of both secretary and treasurer. Friendly Mr. Turnbull keeps the peace during the lively club sessions. Officers—Lawrence Drake, Jay Friedman, Robert Swick. 7 Seated— Panaccione. Ragland, Manis, Sachs, Smith. Le Mieux, Margiotta. Standing—Bloom, Oswald, Carl.

ALL IS PEACEFUL ON THE SPANISH FRONT BUENAS dias, senoritos y senoritas, greets Miss Greene, ad- viser of El Circulo Castellano, at every meeting. The club has done much to create an interest in Spanish in this school. Many of the members have enjoyed several movies about life in South America and also numerous trips to la gran ciudad to see Spanish exhibitions and movies. In February, the club gave an excellent showing of the arts of Latin-American countries. This exhibition attracted high school and college alumnos de espaiiol from near and far. El Circulo Castellano is headed by hispanic William Flannery who is quite capable of leading the other members in Spanish. His understudy is Mae Margiotta, who can speak el espaiiol as well as an educated Spaniard. The guardian of the dinero is Norma Taft; the escritora of the minutes is Harriet Smith. Now that the war in Europe has cut our imports and exports, we are, more and more, doing business with the Spanish-American countries. With this in mind, El Circulo Castellano has tried to show its members the possibilities of closer relations with Sud America. The members have learned that Spanish will be an asset to the business men and women of tomorrow. i iS HEREIN! PASSWORD IS GERMAN CONVERSATION DEUTSCHER Verein zur Ordnung.” Thus the president, Nor- man Goodheim, calls the members of the German Club to order. In the absence of the dynamic president, musically inclined Kenneth Kleeman takes the gavel in hand. The collector of revenues, David Lee, is not to be forgotten; nor is Frances Richter, the secre- tary of the club. The club, convening monthly in room 32, is always well attended because it is mostly social in its aim, sehr gemuehtlich; it is only educational to the extent that moving pictures are used. These deal with German life; some concern sports, others just present a scenic picture of Deutschland. One of the desires of the ambitious members was to form a German band. This plan was shattered by the war as no music can now be imported from Germany. The outstanding social affairs of the club’s season are the initia- tion of the new members, the Christmas party, and the beach party. The party, which is to be held in June, is anxiously awaited by the various members. Miss Thrawl, the backstage director, lends color to the meetings by aiding and advising this group of pleasure-seekers. Officers—Frances Richter, Ken- neth Kleenman, Norman Good- heim. David Lee.

Tl IE Art Department has its share of sketch-mad people. Every- one doodles these days, but the members of the Sketch Club do more than doodle—they can actually draw curved lines. These students with the “sketch-bug” are both social and artisti- cally minded. The meetings, every Tuesday, are always livened by someone's quick wit. However, they also get some sketching done, believe it or not. These skillful sketchers had a Halloween shindig and also a party honoring old St. Nick. At the Christmas party, they contested for the honor of drawing the cutest and most comical Santa Claus head. During the month of February, the club sponsored a contest for fashion draw ing. Any girl in I lempstead 11igh School w ho wished to compete was given the opportunity. One of the stars shining brightly on the Sketch Club horizon is Dorothy Stenhom, who is also treasurer of the Art Club. Dot designed a highly modern, gold-bronze pin for this year’s club members. At the first conference the members chose the officers to guide them through the year. Capable Franny Thompson was elected to the exalted position of art director, and the other chosen ones were assistant—Eleanor Anderson; designer—Edith Boschler; treasurer —Harry Kology.

ART LOVERS MEET TO CREATE NEW WONDERS THE Latin Quarter of Hempstead is centered in room 42 where the Art Club holds its regularly scheduled meetings on the fourth Thursday of every month. At several meetings, interested students and potential artists showed slides depicting the masterpieces of all times. The slides were presented with many interesting facts about the artists and their works. A craft problem in metal ry, which extended for the duration of the year, kept the girls busy. The artists made bracelets and did some finger-painting and soap-carving. However, there is an old adage to which the girls adhere quite firmly—“All work and no play makes Jackie a dull girl.” So to vary this existence, there have been several parties. The first, a Thanksgiving party, honored the Pilgrims. Of course, club members had cider and doughnuts. However, no club is complete without a Christmas party with home-made cake and H. H. S.’ favorite des- sert, ice cream. The art director is cute, art-loving Mary Wendolkowski, who is ably helped by assistant director, Mary Dieteridi. The artistic printer is Muriel Valentine, and Dorothy Stenholm has a financial position in the box office. In early spring, the artistic stars are going with Miss Field, their producer, to Broadway to see some thespians tread the boards” in “Charley's Aunt.” To close the year, the club intends to go down to the sea for a picnic at Jones Beach. Officers—Mary Wendolkowski, Mary Dieterich, Muriel Valentine. Dorothy Stenholm. 121 I.ell to Right—Frances Ann Thompson, Miss Huff (Adviser), Antoinette Feis, Jeanne Maher, Adeline Titus, Jean Rojecki, Jacqueline O’Brien. Officers—Jeanne Maher, Bernice Murray, Jean Meserole, Dorothy Schneider. LITERARY CHIT-CHAT BY CLEVER STUDENTS JUST before the Christmas vacation, the Junior Literary Society had its first meeting to discuss current books and plays. The members are also interested in adventures and travels. At one of the recent meetings, Jackie Kelly entertained the club with stories of her trips to France, Canada, and Mexico. Lucky girl, Jackie! Fortunate listeners, too! Confidentially, this group is a collection of charming starlets and Junior Literary officers. For instance, there is Jeanne Maher of the auburn locks and deep brown eyes who directs all scenes. In case of her absence, attractive Bernice Murray takes over the director’s megaphone. In other official capacities are Dot Schneider, the pencil pusher, and Jean Meserole, the box-office cashier. Great enjoyment is derived from novels, biographies, Broadway hits, and other literary efforts. Any of the members in the club will tell you that the meetings are always very happy affairs. Guiding the girls and joining in the fun is their fine adviser. Miss Huff, w'ho has a wealth of information to share with these book lovers. I f you want to find a very cultured group of junior class students, peek in the door of room 44 the tenth period on the first Thursday of each month. 122 ADVENTURES IN THE DOMAINS OF LETTERS I F YOU ever pass room 35 and see girls in placid dignity that 1 nothing can disturb, well, they are the sophomore book worms having a quiet meal on their favorite dramas or novels: comedy or tragedy. These glamorous young femmes fatales” and Miss Sproule had their first get-together in October. At that time Edna Blair, a viva- cious brunette of high “oomph” quota, was elected as chief gavel- swinger of the club. As a provision against Edna’s ever letting “Gone With The Wind” or some other literary creation of similar length get the best of her, Jane Carson, one of our stick-twirling drum majorettes was given the office of vice-president. The other offices are occupied by Ruth Lind, the notes scribbler, and Phyllis Israel- son, who capably manages the high finances. Towards improving their intellects and broadening their hori- zons, these literary fiends have speakers give forth precious grains of knowledge gleaned from traveling. One of the most exciting talks was given by a voyager to the country of the hot-headed and roman- tic Peruvians. The club members also discuss current best sellers. One goal aimed at by the Sophomore Literary Society for the rosy, though dim future, is that of seeing the production of a play on the legitimate stage. Officers—Ruth Lind, Edna Blair. Phyllis Israelson. Jane Carson. Standing—Miss Sproule (Adviser). Doty, Patterson, Amberg. Ilebrank, EickhotT, Levy. Around the Table—Schlimm. Brown, Copius, Connelly, Wesley. Elliott.

Eleanor Patterson, Anita Siegel. ALL. the world's a stage . . This familiar quotation might . well be applied to the Footlight Club, which is, appropriately enough, the title given to the dramatic organization of 1 lempstead High. At the beginning of the school year, tryouts are held to determine those who will be welcomed into the cast during the rest of the season. Once an aspirant meets the qualifications set down for him by the remaining members of the previous year's group, the extra- player is entitled to participate in a varied program. I lere he is given a chance to display his dramatic ability and to have fun through the medium of this ability. At the meetings, which are held monthly and illustrate the apex of restrained informality, the entertainment committee is responsi- ble for making things hum and work smoothly. On some occasions bit-players are called upon to perform for the group, w hile at other times the stars take part in a game envolved around the sharpening of their dramatic wits. Refreshments are provided by the members whose work in the domestic direction equals that in the dramatic field. The youthful thespians are coached by Miss Hinman and Miss MacDougall, while May Demarest, assisted by Allison Brown, Anita Seigel, and Eleanor Patterson, ably directs the club’s produc- tions.

CONQUERING ALL WITH TYPEWRITER AND PAD NIMBLE fingers that dance over typewriter keys and agile brains for translating shorthand hieroglyphics are the two prerequisites for membership in the Commercial Club. This wide-awake organization aims to promote friendliness and good will among all business students and to interest them in their future work. Miss Jones, the club director, has a cast of sixty members, all of whom are of the fairer sex. A little bird told us that the future secretaries would appreciate a few masculine points of view. Take a hint, boys, and join the club. Many interesting and informative meetings are held in room 14. One of the best remembered conclaves was that at which Miss Zwerin, from our local Miss Zwerin’s Secretarial Studio, gave a lecture. Many valuable pointers on business brought the members in close contact with the business world into which they hope shortly to enter. Presiding at the meetings is charming President I lelen Schroeher, and Gloria O’Donnell is at hand for any emergency. Matilda Scharfenberg keeps the minutes in shorthand, and Madeline Smith solicits all necessary fees. Seriously, though, the club doesn’t keep strictly to business all the time, for the girls sprinkle social times in between the educa- tional hours. They don’t miss anything.

VENI, VIDI, VICI HAS REAL MEANING HERE IT’S easier to learn by practical application than from a textbook.” This saying might well be the motto of the Carpe Diem Sodalitas, which endeavors to present to its members a varied program of educational entertainment dealing with the Latin language and the customs of Roman times. Under the superb direction of Miss McDermott, who is assisted by the Misses Wohischlegel and Underwood, meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month. At the get-togethers, short plays, poems, and games are indulged in by the members. Carols and hymns, translated into Latin, were sung at the Christ- mas party which was held in the cafeteria. At one meeting the girls learned to give the salute to the flag in Latin, and they sang with Latin words, God Bless America.” The officers of the Carpe Diem Sodalitas are named after those of the ancient Roman government. Carol Hopper and Annabel Shevlin hold the two highest offices, the co-consuls in the organiza- tion. Kathleen Bree serves as scribe for the group, while Juliette Doyle is the questor in charge of the financial affairs. Edna Blair, Hewitt Bird, Jean Nelson, and Catherine Schroeher are the aediles, or board of directors. Carpe Diem Sodalitas also carries on a colossal project of raising money for awards to be given to honor students of Latin. Officers—Annabel Shelvin, Kath- leen Bree, Carol Hopper, Juliette Doyle. 126 MATH WIZARDS SOLVE TOUGH PROPOSITIONS Wl I 11 all the drudgery of math classes left behind, the mathe- matically minded students who constitute the Tupiar Club find enjoyment in solving perplexing problems. The fact that Tupiar is the only math class where no homework or tests are given, may or may not have anything to do with the popularity of the club, but we have our own ideas. I he adviser, Mr. Windt, welcomes all students who have strug- gled (?) through Elementary Algebra and Plane Geometry with success, and are taking or have taken Intermediate Algebra. Blond Jack Powers capably acts as director, with Howard Pap- pert as his ever-ready assistant. But don't think that this club is lacking in glamour; oh, no, Joan Schuppel is the official scroller and banker. Whenever the school needs surveyors or mathematical figuring, the members of the Tupiar are ready, willing, and able. Many interesting problems, which cannot be solved during class time, are discussed at the meetings. Members have become adroit in operating the transit and slide rule. As usual, first outdoor job for the 2II R’s was the measuring of the flagpole on the lawn at the front of the high sch(x)l auditorium. When the school was in need of surveyors to measure the new cinder track, the math wizards offered their services. I his deed supplied good practice for the club and useful information to the administration. Officers—Joan Schuppel, Mr. Windt (Adviser), John Powers, Howard Pappert. Second Rim—Rosenbluth.

I lis stand-in, Frank Russell, helps with the club’s activities while Secretary-Treasurer Sam Hampson plays a double role very capably. Sci- entific Mr. Hamburg is always on the set when the cast needs advice. ROBESON PATRONS THE Robeson Club, directed by genial Mr. Pill, is designed to promote Negro culture. I'his year the members contributed several sub- scriptions of Negro magazines to the library. A high light of the year was the talk given by the Rev. Dr. C. B. Robeson.

Our Hempstead High School team of 477 Shorthand students met this opposition by topping the High School and College Division to win the coveted Silver Cup trophy with a score of 96.50! Tl IE I lempstead Public Schools had the honor of initiating the first “Flying Cadet Preparatory School” in the United States. It was established through the cooperation of our local school board and the military officials at Mitchel Field. The school pre- pares boys between the ages of twenty and twenty-seven to take the mental examination for the United States Army Air Corps. Mr. Robert Hayes, a teacher of mathematics in the high school, was made administrative assistant in charge under the direction of Dr. Raymond Maure, the principal of Hempstead High School. 1940 COLONIAL WINS TWO PRIZES EMPSIEAD High School's 1940 “Colonial” placed first in its class at the second annual Long Island Interscholastic Yearbook Conference which was held at llofstra College on Fri- day, October 25. Ruth BischofT. last year’s editor-in-chief, received the prize which was a bronze plaque. In the Columbia Scholastic Press 1940 Critique and Contest, the “Colonial” took a blue ribbon for its first place rating. Such awards give this year’s staff and those of the years following an incentive for getting a top billing FLYING CADET PREPARATORY SCHOOL spot. The “Colonial” hopes that the box-oflxe receipts of its advertisers will be great because of the in- creased support of the students. If the students will notice the advertisements offering coming attractions at the various places of business and will lend their aid to these places, the “Colonial” can continue to keep these advertisers on the cir- cuit. If this is done, the student body will have each year an academy aw'ard yearbook.

NO SLIP FOR MY ALIBI? THE inevitable consequence of a student's two or three years at 11.11.S. is that he will have to collect, sooner or later, numerous white, green, and yellow squares of paper. There are many ingenious ways in which these scraps of paper may be collected. Ask the students for informa- tion and their answers will be identical. It all depends upon the color of paper the collector wishes to hoard. If one prefers a dainty yellow, neatly printed square, he must remain at home for one of these reasons: a bad cold (ever have a good one?), a trip to New York for new clothes, a game at Yankee Stadium, or complete exhaustion from a night-before party. The pastel slips are tucked into an envelope with the report cards, and they can be checked by unsuspecting Mom or Dad. Other students find that turquoise slips give them much more time in school under the all-seeing eyes of a detention room teacher. To become a collector of blue- green paper, one must come to class without homework, chew gum incessantly, and act as gentlemen do not. Unfortunately, the very important admit slip, which must be signed by teachers, is the same shade of blue. Often the first-mentioned slip is conveniently lost. Then there are the numerous mimeographed tiny white slips of rectangular form, slips which allow one to get out of gym class; and long narrow pieces of paper which send a quiver through the receiver, “Come to Office 3 at the end of the period.” I lowever, a great deal of time is given to the art of selecting the right shade, or shall we say avoiding those of certain print. 138 Miss Helen Miller of Rockville Centre took her course in HEMPSTEAD.

CAMPUS IS EXPANDING AT LAST our stalwart Tiger gridders have a new stadium, a suitable field of battle upon which to thwart their staunch opponents. The up-to-date grid- iron now supplants the barren, unsodded one which once spoiled the rear of our school. Last spring the entire school enjoyed a fire drill given in order that a picture could be taken of the entire athletic field showing the crowded condition that existed then. Finally, after many conferences, two pieces of property were acquired by the Board of Education. One was the Harper estate, which adjoined the sch(x l grounds, and the other was gained by an old-fashioned swap. A lot adjoining the I larper land was given for the property opposite the junior high school on Prospect Street. After the Harper house was razed and the ground leveled, the old grandstand was moved to its present site, and a new stand was built on the land directly opposite. Augmenting the ends of both grandstands are bleacher seats; all in all, there are some two thousand seats available for any event in sports. Last fall a fine new cinder track was built which completed one of the finest athletic fields in Nassau County. To improve its appearance, trees have been planted in all four corners, a fence has been erected around the entire gridiron, and a lower fence has been built to keep spectators from interfering in the games. The thirty-five thousand dollars spent for purchase and care of this land will bring innumerable benefits to ll.ll.S. 140 MISS DUNBAR S SCHOOL Conveniently located in the Borough Hall district at 186 JORALEMON STREET • BROOKLYN, N.Y.

Hempstead 7810 142 ALL DRILL FOR SAFETY'S SAKE THERE comes a time in the life of every student when his ears perceive the welcome, lengthy strains of the fire bell summoning all the sojourners of Hemp- stead High School to abandon their studies and to pro- ceed in a penny march out of an imaginary roaring inferno. The fire bell knows no conventionalities; therefore, drills are held when least expected. It is a pleasant sur- prise to be snatched from the clutches of a history exam or to be granted a reprieve from a chemistry quiz by this safety precaution. For this reason there have been pro- tests raised by the profs against the fire drill, but it would never do to leave our youth unprotected in the crackles of one of nature’s hazardous enterprises—fire. On the other hand, it is not so pleasant to be inter- rupted while endeavoring to catch up on one’s sleep in an eighth period study hall or when just getting ac- quainted with that” girl in the seat to the left. The biggest fault with fire drills is the fact that some occur in the winter months. Pity the students who are forced to face the wintry blasts as they huddle and cuddle together on the football field, on the campus, or on the parking lot adjoining the Bandbox. Do the students object? No, they’re for more and more fire drills. 1——-------------------- -7 Sport Clothes t uxedos to I lire CL. AY MAN’S PANTS SHOP G O. Discount 74 Main Street HEMPSTEAD, N. Y.

LON ERS of smooth-looking pedal extremities leaped from their seats and cheered when the Indian foot- wear invaded the halls of our lycee of learning. No matter how large your footlets, you need not slink around self-consciously. The assets of the moccasins are two: they are more comfortable, if that can be possible, and they are more enduring for the everyday hardships of stepped-on feet. The moccasins, with their comfy casualness and oceans of umph, offer roominess galore. Hundreds of students can't be wrong in championing this pert, fun-inviting brogue which is perfect for a heavy date and a light heart. Everyone knows that the moccasins are the acme of comfort which makes one want to walk and walk, except when a bus or car is ready. Apparently, the time-worn sloppy saddle shoes of brown and white have stepped aside graciously to the reign of its new protege. Moccasins find a supporter in the mothers who realize that such footwear does not show the lack of polish and shoe white. Confidentially, one reason for the change in footgear was the clickety- clack of needles. Our beautiful co-eds learned the fine art of knitting socks, first loud ones for their heroes and then pastel-colored ones for themselves. Unfor- tunately, thick wool, cable stitches, and bumps require shoes that may be slipped into very easily—result, the wide-open moccasin. Necessity, the mother of invention, is also the starter of new fashions. 144 ' ”” MUTUAL mITTS NASSAI m MM AO AotHUl hiw ro i MAIN OFFICE Hempstead Ave., Hempstead, N. Y.

PLESSER S Hardware and Paints OUR CORRIDORS ARE A MAZING THE labyrinth of Crete was as confusing to Theseus as the halls of H.H.S. are to us on numerous oc- casions. However, Theseus didn’t have so much fun getting lost in that ancient subterranean cavern as we have in this more recent structuie. It is an established fact that Theseus had no traffic problems that could equal ours. Naturally, rendezvous and fond farewells cause congested areas where a person walking along minding his own business is suddenly caught in the current of hurrying humanity and turned around in the wrong direction. Then too. many a placid, easy-going person is annoyed when he is forced to go up the main stairway at the speed of minus-five and eventu- ally ends up in Office 3 for an admit slip. (Loitering?) Being a lone pedestrian, Theseus could not have stopped for a few moments to watch the others go by. Neither could he have seen the various degrees of anxiety exhibited by conscientious students determined to reach classes on time. Some run to study halls— imagine their haste for more education! The majority, however, lackadaisically take their time and hope that the teacher will excuse them, but if he doesn’t, oh well! what’s another late slip. Theseus certainly missed a lot! 146 West Hempstead, N. Y. COLLEGE of ARTS and SCIENCES Day and evening courses leading to B.S. (Social Science and Pure Science). Preparation for High School Teaching.

The inevitable answers to this urgent question are many. Luncheon tastes differ, but strangely they may be satisfied in the lunchers’ commissaries. Some prefer the spacious well-equipped cafeteria con- venient to the many exits. Although twelve students may be crowded at a table for eight, the cafeteria still takes the prize for its happy atmosphere and its excel- lent home-cooking. Between the glances of the hostess on duty, topics of the day are loudly discussed, or birth- days are celebrated with appropriate musical selections. Others find that the Bandbox corner is high on the scale of popularity. Daily one hears, across a table laden with notebooks and textbooks, discussions of teachers, pet jokes, football games, or the Patriot. Each student laughs and talks between the bites of a ham sandwich or gulps of milk, and then dashes across the room to practice. There are the fresh-air fiends who sit through sun- shine and storm on the bleachers, in the parking field, or in the Town Hall Park, and eat .Mother's sandwiches from bags of intriguing shapes. Many students prefer to dine in style at Louis' or at some restaurant in the village. There, too, they find good food. Since a number of students live in I lempstead, Where to Dine” is no problem. However, the walk home de- mands more reward than a sandwich and a glass of milk. 150 3088 EMPLOYERS WANTED GIBBS SECRETARIES • Last year there weren’t enough Gibbs-trained secretaries to meet this demand!

Published Every Thursday COM MERCI AL PR INTING DOODLERS DAWDLE WHILE DREAMING PSYCHOLOGISTS, by scrutinizing and translating 1 the curious marks and curves called doodles, agree that each one, hero, mouse, genius, artist, or dictator, shows his inner self. The Egyptians had their hiero- glyphics, the Babylonians, their cuneiform, and I lemp- stead High students have their doodling. Their inner thoughts are expressed unconsciously, and their hidden talents seep through and see light. These characteristics blossom forth in different forms: daggers, stars, faces, cars, hearts, airplanes, and anything that runs through the doodler’s mind. Faculty members will stand and beam over their studious hopefuls who are obviously slaving away in study hall. According to statistics, about one-fourth are really doodling. Over there, decked out in loud plaids, his bow-tie wiggling as he gulps, sits a boy presumably in love, for on every available spot of his homework paper a pretty heart appears. The airplane designer has his ships winging their way through the clouds, lighting through storms, and some ending miserably in the ocean. Falling in the mechanical class are the race-car doodlers. Their cars whizz around curves, collide, and finally catch fire. At heart these adventurers long for excitement and Errol Flynn experiences. The fairer sex draws little hats, lovely slinky gowns, faces with heavy lidded eyes and full red lips. They dream that they are the future movie stars. Evidently doodling is a wonderful pastime. And how can one express himself if he doesn’t doodle? 68 Main St. Hempstead, N. Y. Phone 1010 Hemp. GILBARCO NASSAU CORPORATION OIL HEAT, AIR CONDITIONING FUEL OIL SERVICE 123 MAIN ST. Hempstead, N.

No. it’s not paradise; it’s the inner court. The idea of landscaping the barren area originated in a public speaking class when a topic for a persuasive speech was selected. Of course, some members of the Advisory Council perked up their ears, discussed many ideas at their next meeting, and then sponsored numer- ous tea dances. The period of conversion from the ugly to the comely was one of fun for the girls. Dirt was strewed through the girls’ gym, and the prickle of branches was felt as the pine trees apparently walked past. Now, through the hard work of the Advisory Council and the patronage of the many jitterbugs at tea dances, an untidy place of drab grey has given way to a court yard of immaculate verdure.

Boasting seven rooms, the Bandbox has ample space for private practice even while the band, orchestra, or choir is rehearsing. The building is a storeroom for musical instruments and a variety of uniforms, and a combination lunch room and study hall where many animated musical students eat or study rather than leave the scene of their beloved work for so much as ten or fifteen minutes. Surely the Bandbox is a shelter for any aspiring and many perspiring musicians. Of course, at times it does get a bit noisy around that particular section of the campus, and often you’ll hear strange sounds issuing from the “Melodic Paradise.” However, if you care to look closer, you will probably find that it is only an overlapping of a few tunes, each being practiced very diligently by an ambitious student. A very capable janitor, Mr. Clapper, keeps every- thing in tip-top shape and takes excellent care of the many instruments stored there. “In charge of production” are four very earnest teachers: Miss Boyle, Miss McQueen, Mr. Albinski, and Mr. Nowak. Among them they direct each musical extravaganza produced each year, be it a concert, an opera, or a pageant.

Who? Well, gee whiz, surely you know them, for they go around patiently scattering red shredded wheat on the floor, breaking locks (a routine job to them with all the learners losing their keys), fixing doorknobs, keep- ing the school neat and bright, washing pencil and dirt marks—well, shouldn’t you know? First guess is correct. Our building custodians, with Mr. Welsing, Superintendent of Buildings, are a mighty fine bunch of friends, especially in times of great need. Fascinated audiences watch the janitors as they carry the musical instruments back and forth in the auditor- ium. Eyes travel back and forth, back and forth, as the clean-up men pace across the stage with a viola or a nice huge drum. All wait breathlessly for a slip—but never has this happened, for the instruments are treated as if they were precious babies. In the summer months the janitors work, cleaning, varnishing, scrubbing, and hammering, in anticipation of the throngs that will come pouring through the halls in September. The custodians greet the students with beaming smiles as they slam lockers, race through the halls, and gaze through windows—’cause they’re the janitors’ scatter-brained conglomeration of American life. i f I ' t IIEFl-LEY SCHOOL REGISTERED BY THE BOARD OF REGENTS BUSINESS and SECRETARIAL TRAINING DAY AND EVENING SESSIONS Catalogue upon request Williamsburgh Savings Bank Bldg.

ONE of the most common occurrences in the life of a newborn freshman is to be told about that un- usual labor-saving device, the famed vertical convey- ance, the elevator of I lempstead I ligh. Even though this trickery has been going on for years, the upperclassmen always seem able to pull the wool over their younger brothers’ innocent eyes. The elevator is really unique, in that it can be located in many places at the same time, ail depending on the frame of mind of the tormentor. For instance, the ele- vator could be behind the mysterious looking stockroom door, or running to the fourth floor, from Office 3. Only in the mind of the gullible frosh must the imaginary elevator keep in motion. As long as there is an artless Freshman Class, there will be the elusive elevator, symbolizing all the minor annoyances foisted upon the newcomers by the sophis- ticated veterans.

A knock on the door produces one or more of Hemp- stead High’s athletic leaders, for this minute chamber is the habitat of such personages as Coach Fay, Mr. Schem, and Mr. Nilsson, all well-known to athletic aspirants at I I.H.S. Within the four confining walls of 41 the destiny of the Tiger athletic machine is plotted. Schedules are arranged, strategy is mapped out, and discussions are held about sport activities, while the air becomes heavy with the sweet scented fragrance of a cigarette. Perhaps the smoking is more aptly described as an attempt to fumigate the Tiger. On entering the room, one is given that “snug as a bug in a rug” impression which is perhaps due to the vast amount of material crowded into the little availa- ble space. The walls are covered with photos and numer- ous bulletins; the desks are cluttered up with official looking summaries and notices; cabinets line the walls; and whenever the portal is flung open to the public, the staff seems hard at work. The staff is composed of female students chosen by the high moguls of Bengal sport dom. Do drop around to room 41 and see brains plus brawn busily engaged in making athletic plans.
