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.
