May Barth HIS year's Class of 1944 has been diminished to some extent, due to many of the boys join- ing the armed forces and leaving for college at mid-term. Those who are left, however, are cer- tainly active and keep things rolling smoothly here at school. On September twentieth at the election of senior class officers, Willard Smith was chosen president, Harry Cuthbert was elected the vice- president, Betty Rocker came out with the secre- tary's books and Kenneth Shelton ended up col- lecting dues. In the middle of February, Harry left to join the Navy and attractive Peggy Maier took over the job of vice-president. Willatrtl Smith is very interested in bacteriology, and plans to attend Cornell University and con- tinue this study. Music and the A Capella Choir have also held Billls attention. Throughout his four C Salute To the Seniors years at Hempstead High, Bill has been a member of each boys' honor club. Harry Cuthbert is interested in the Navy and his goal is to enter Annapolis as a naval cadet. Sailing is his favorite pastime, which he does whenever possible on his summer vacations. Harry is also a home-room representative. Peggy Maier has been elected the vice-president of the junior Class, Assistant Chief of Office 2 Squad, and also was selected as secretary of the Pen and Ink Club. Peggy is very interested in watching sports and may be seen at football, bas- ketball, and baseball games. Betty Rocker, secretary, is well-known in H.H.S. She is a cheer leader, a gym aide, and has earned her Betty hopes to be an athletic instructor.
