It is for these attributes that we, the 1954 Colonial staff, happily dedicate this book to you - MR.

For a few days mad confusion reigns, much to the horror of our be- loved faculty who endure the disruptions with benign dis- positions, while students cure the seasonal book-signing plague. Long after the last Colonial has been signed and stored to gather dust in some forgotten corner it may be pulled out and viewed with fond memories. During the years spent at school the little joys and exciting experiences are passed off as ordinary happenings, but viewed in retrospect a nostalgic haze of pleasant associations overtakes the reader. We, of the Colonial staff, have tried to center the activities and special events of the year around a theme based on quotations. lt is our hope that in some cases these borrowed words will provide amusement and that all of them will prove interesting and informative. Our feelings about these words of wisdom are aptly expressed in the phrase: What oft was thought, but ne'er so well express'd. -Alexander Pope.

The foundation of every state is the education of its youth. -Diogenes AR from being bored of education, the tive persons who comprise the Hempstead Board of Education give unceasingly of their time and elTort in order to serve the community. Each member serves for a period of five years, K with one newly elected member each year. They meet regu- Ofll' larly once a month, and hold special meetings when neces- sary. 0 Their work is aided by the services ot the Superintendent of Schools, who is responsible for the administration of all policies adopted by the Board, and by the assistance of a E llc-flfion clerk and an attorney. The Board of Education believes that schools of this com- munity should be used to their fullest extent. They have made it possible to establish a complete adult school, which now offers eighty-three courses to all residents ot the district. 10 , 'ff ' rg, -jf ,qv 7-f I W gfggffyff,j,f'm7ww37' ifhwea - V f , , M, if ff, A fm, fffff ,, ,, - w ' f ,ysyfvlf ,Cf 45 Wag, 1 , X X f MQW! ,fy ,y,7,,, fm, ff A ff' rf ffzz ' fm Q ',ff,'Lwf fa' L. f A f f,r,,'7.,' y M if f ,f , ' .gf vos, , , f fl if ,,Vf,' , ,Vg W, f !jV?,V,lf,7Myf,, 'WW Af 1, li ' ' In ,, X DR. W. AMOS KINCAID Superintendent The tall, the wise, the reverend head . . . -Watts LTHOUGH Dr. Kincaicl's work entails a great deal of responsibility, he looks upon himself as a team-leader rather than the head of our entire school system. He points out that he is assisted by a good number of people, including the high school principal, elementary principals, a director of adult education, the superin- tendent of buildings, and the assistant to the superintendent in charge of business aFFairs. But despite all this assistance, our superintendent devotes a great deal of time and energy to the huge task of directing our schools. lt is easy to see what an excellent job he is doing, iudging by the many improvements in Hempstead during Dr. Kincaid's seven years here. ll nw .Q x Principal We may personally be defeated, but our 'principles' never. -Garrison HETHER principles, or the principals of our schools, their ideals and their work cannot be defeated if they are as dedicated to their iob as is our own prin- ciple, l mean principal, Mr. Beddow, who took the posftion in l95l. Last year at this time he was agog with plans for this year's new schedule. He's now working on various other improvements which will soon be possible with a smaller enrollment. His special likes are people, teenagers especially. His pet peeve is generalizations by the public such as, All teenagers are hoodlums and bad drivers. Many people think that the principle, I mean principal thing a principal, principle, principal! does is sit in an office a few hours daily. Far from it! The principal's, principles don't allow it! Mr. Beddow's school hours are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. He divides his spare time among faculty meetings, G. O. activities, football games, con- certs, dances, Community Chest, Kiwanis, professional groups, trout fishing, bowling, tennis, and badminton! Busy as he is, our principal assures us that he wouldn't trade iobs with anyone! 12 WILLIAM D. BEDDOW 'T ALFRED P. WINDT Assistant to the Principal Absent he is a character understood, but present he is a force respected. -Santayana REDICTIONS seldom come true, but one seems to have in the case of our competent Assistant to the Principal. In his high school's yearbook, the editor predicted that Mr. Windt would someday be- come a teacher of mathematics. His ambition was to become an engineer, for which he has his degree. During the depression he took up teaching, and since that time he has been in the field of education. Mr. Windt came to Hempstead High to teach math until he was oFfered his present job as assist- ant to the Principal. In this position, Mr. Windt supervises the extra-curricular activities, is in charge of all the attendance and discipline in our school, and performs various other iobs. Besides all his activities, Mr. Windt is co-author of an elementary algebra book, Everyday Algebra. Outside of school, Mr. Windt and his family en- ioy their semi-classical record collection, and are ardent sports fans who root for the Yankees. 13 FRANK PILL, JR. Director of Guidance E.

It is the iob of the counselors to guide students in their choice of career, and the solution of prob- lems concerning advanced learning and lite adiustments. The Guidance Depart- ment also aids students who wish to go directly into a vocation by giving them placement assistance. Although maintaining two libraries is by no means an easy task, the librarians as- sure the circulation of an adequate supply of books which provide to students and teachers the maximum educational advan- tages possible. ln addition, the librarians are always willing to lend a hand to any- one seeking information. ounde om ana! oligfdfidlld f f. . 4 .

The recorders, aided by secretaries work on schedules, school and college records and students' school finances. The other secretaries are found among the various offices of our school where they work with the principal, the assist- ant to the principal and the counselors in both of the guicl- ance oFFices. Because of the efticient work that the recorders and secretaries do, it is an easy matter to obtain any necessary information pertaining to records and to keep our school running smoothly. 15 'GIS' X l L. .

Our English department, headed by Miss Barth, recognizes this 'fact and tries to make available to our students a rich background in literature, and a firm foun- dation in grammar, both essential in so many ways. This year a class in iournalism was be- gun. lt oHers invaluable experience to those interested in writing careers, and provides enioyment for those who find relaxation and satisfaction in writing. Many students choose between this new class and the creative writing class already in existence.

Cifizenri ip galucafion While we read, we make history. -Aldrich HIS quotation might mean that someone studying Citizenship Education today could be president some years hence. But even if this far fetched simile doesn't come true, students studying ancient, medieval, and modern history do enjoy the subiect. One of the reasons is that Citizenship Edu- cation is presented in the form of discus- sions and open panels giving every student an opportunity for class participation. Shown here is one of Mr. Wilson's classes in a typical discussion. Citizenship Education is given to all students no mat- ter what course they are taking. Regard- less of what field they enter after high school, Citizenship Education has prepared them with a broader outlook on life through the study of historv. 17 4, A I ' ' . ,.

All four classes have their choice of French, Latin, Spanish, or German. Many students take two languages in preparing for college. This picture is an example of the indus- try put into linguistic studies. One of Mr. Navarra's classes is striving to master French pronunciation. Besides learning grammar, students become acquainted with the culture and literature of the coun- try whose language they are studying. They often learn songs and act out plays peculiar to the various countries. Many students go on to ioin a language club where they can further their interest and enjoy themselves as well. ,-,A 5857-lm AM, W. Q s xi f , 5 .

There is exceedingly little we can do in life without involving something mathematical. Keeping this in mind, the administration has seen to it that an adequate and em- cient Math Department is maintained at Hempstead High. Headed by Mr. Robert Pop Hayes, the department prepares many students for college by providing them with their minimum two or three years of math. For those pupils particularly math- ematically inclined, advanced courses are also offered. I . ' E 'Flu .2 1- '7' f ., f ' Z , WM' 5 , , I , . lf f, 'f f' .' ' 'aff' , ' 4, 7 Q , , ' .fn il ' fd!

Science is . . .like virtue, its own exceeding great reward. -Kingsley LTHOUGH hard work is a necessity in studying such subiects as General Sci- ence, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, or Earth Science, the students studying them find their work well rewarded. Future doctors, nurses, dentists, and scientists are learning for their own benefit and the benefit of others by increasing their knowledge of themselves and their environment. Not only students with a scientific career in mind are taking these subjects. To many stu- dents the study of science is not a required subiect at all, but a source of seemingly endless fascination for them. Excellent laboratory facilities in our Science Depart- ment, headed by Mr. Faust, furnish the stu- dents with a fine opportunity for scientific investigation. cien ce 1 V 4 ,,' ft' .. -..- X Q X.

Stevenson enior Cfarizi Give the world your best and the best will come back to you. -Class of '54 HIS is the motto chosen by the graduates of l954, who are already giving the world their best. This particular group of seniors has shown outstanding ability and leadership in the tour years during which they crossed several more yards en route to their final, respective goals. Dick Cheshire, was honored to represent the class in the position of top man on the totem pole. His main interest and ability lie in track, ai' which he's an accomplished star. He has a terrific sense of humor and is a real gone French etudiant. What young swain could help shouting lschool cheers or otherwisell when pretty vivacious Bev O'Neill led cheers at games? Elected secretary of her graduating class, Bev still found time to be chief of principal's service squad, Greek Games coach, gym aide, and modern dancer. Holding the moneybags for his classmates was popular George Stevenson. Following attend- ance ai' Cortland, George plans to be a physical education teacher. No one at football games in the '53 season could miss the George Steven- son. He ioined the varsity squad his second year and became a co-captain his senior year. Norma Ashe held the position of vice-presi- deni' of her graduating class. While vice-presi- dents are known for having little to do, Norma was assured a good number of tasks connected with her office! Her biggest iob was heading the Senior Ball committees. Norma plans to be a dental hygienist. lOpen wide! l She's held nu- merous previous oftices in school and has be- longed to a variety of organizations. With a class as large as this there were far too many candidates from which to choose only four otticers. Other outstanding leaders who represented the class as well as the Big Four cannot be by-passed merely because of their number, Karlann Puerschner, Liz Meuller, Joanne Linfante, Armand Fiorenza, Alex Pickard and Sue Lillicrap stood out in the field of music, Larry Kassan and Joan King showed artistic ability, drama oscars go to Hue Babinski, John Cosgriff, and Pat Wilson, Marilyn Brooks must be noted for leading both Pen and Ink and Modern Dance Club, Connie Arena and Denis Towey for their Patriot work and scholastically speaking we mustn't forget Bob Leatherman, Pete Peril, Ted Felber, and Gordon Weil for science and math, Carol Crowder in the field of social sci- ence and Martha Oman for her editorship of last year's Colonial, and Judy Nyman and Andy Robell for outstanding work in English. These are all here cited for only one field, but every one has a variety of interest. They are all examples of young people giving their best, and con- sequently getting the best. The job of advising seniors rests with the class advisors and guidance counselors. Mr. Lints, assisted by Mrs. Dendy, Miss Rhodes, and Mr. Lawson, has been filling the position for seven years. His duties include helping the sen- Coreful it might explode. J. Jefferson to C. Carman. iors prepare for the Senior Ball, Senior-Frosh Day, and Old Clothes Day, organizing the class, handling graduation arrangements, and helping individual seniors with personal problems. Mr. Pill and Mr. Turnbull act as guidance and placement counselors. Both men are sincerely dedicated to the task of placing graduates in the right school or job. Mr. Pill noted that this This is N. Tranchino bringing you the homeroom notices for today . . . year's class has a large number of collegiate students, but its interests are as varied as any big group's can be. Seniors plan to be anything from chefs to atomic physicists, from airline host- esses to women doctors, from horsebreeders to leatherworkers lno connectionl, and from ich- thyologists lstudying marine lifel to heptolo- gists lstudying slangl. An unusual number lover fiftyl plan to go into teaching, and a rather large number of boys plan to study engineering. We sincerely hope that these seniors who have already begun giving the world their best will soon begin receiving the best in suc- cess and life-long happiness. The very best of everything to you, seniors! SENIOR CLASS ADVISORS Mr. Lints, Miss Rhodes, Mrs. Dendy, Mr. Lawson. P. Scholler and R.

The flower of youth. -Homer HOWING a natural ability for achieving suc- cess during these past three years' at Hemp- stead High, this year's outstanding Junior class has been hard at work preparing for the years beyond school, whether they be collegiate or commercial. Excellent leadership was shown by the bfficers of the class who wereelected by their class- mates. As president of .the class, the Juniors elected Joseph Margiotta. Josh, as his class- mates affectionately callg him, is an active par- ticipant in sports and has served as co-captain of our football 'Jteam this past year. For his advanced education, Josh is aiming high, West Point Military Academy. Popular Alice Kay, who was elected for a second time to serve as vice-president of her class, also exercises her abilities as secretary of the Student Council. An active member of the Future Teachers of America Club for three years, she is planning on a teaching career. Elected as secretary of the Junior class was Jon Cheshire, whose popularity in sports is well deserved. His activities include basketball, foot- ball, track, and a three year membership in the honor club. Charlie Hagenah, also a three year member of the honor club, has deserved the contidence on the part of his fellow students who elected him treasurer. Charlie is as yet undecided con- cerning his plans for the future, but we feel sure he will succeed in whatever he attempts. Miss Taft, Mr. Zara, Mfss Abbott, and Miss Dorwin, this year as in the past, advised the class, thus assuring the smooth running of the Junior activities. With their help and supervision JUNIOR CLASS ADVISORS Left to right. Miss Abbott, Miss Taft, Mr. Zara, Miss Dorwin. in collecting the Junior dues, in selecting class rings, and in preparing for the Junior Prom, the officers and members of the class made the events of the year hugely successful. The Junior reps, chosen from the social stud- ies classes, under the-direction of Mr. Zara who heads the Junior treasury, put forth a tre- mendous eFfort during the drive for Junior dues. This year again a portion of the dues collected went for awards to the general student with the most outstanding record, and the commercial and college student with the highest final aver- age in four major subiects. One of the important activities engaged in only by Junior students is H. H. S.'s yearbook, our Colonial. The members of the various de- partments which include the business, editorial, and art staffs are selected on the basis of their scholastic records in their sophomore year. With hard work but much fun for all, the year passed swiftly for these students who will soon find themselves passing on to a new year, leaving vacancies for the next year's members. Bringing to a close the exciting events of the year was the Junior Prom. With eager an- ticipation on the part of the students, and early preparations on the part of the committee, the dance this year met with the success that we have come to expect of this yearly event.

Now that they are better acquainted with their school, they have more time to enioy ii' and participate in the various activities. They are ready for hard work too, with a good deal oi intelligence and experience to help them along. This year, .loan Kennedy was chosen as presi- dent of the class, and she did an excellent iob of living up to the honor. An attractive and versatile student, .loan is taking an academic course with the hope that she may become a teacher in the elementary grades. Joan already belongs to the Future Teachers of America, and is also a basketball enthusiast. Honor student Allen Frost was elected to the vice-presidency thus extending a helping hand to the president in her numerous tasks and de- cisions. Allen, too, is an academic student, and is planning on a career in chemigal research. A scientific career is of interest also to Gail Joy, secretary, lout she is planning to enter the nursing field. Gail is an active girl which ex- plains her membership in the Latin, pre-nursing, and badminton clubs, and Junior Secretary squad. J. Kennedy President ADVISORS Left to right: Mr. Chase, Miss Tripp, Miss lgnelzi, Mrs. Greenlund. M . Oy Vice-President Mary Feldman, this year's class treasurer is a commercial student and has secretarial work in mind for the future. She is an active member of the Glee Club and also has a good job after school. The sophomores work together for their class. Besides donating their time and diligent efforts, they pay their class dues which are used for several purposes, including awards to the soph- omore students with the highest scholastic aver- ages for the year, payment for their Colonial picture and also for their class party.

All the sopho- more boys and girls gather in the boy's gym- nasium for an afternoon of dancing, entertain- ment, games, and last but by no means least, refreshments. The individual sophomores are under the able guidance of their counselors. Miss MacDougall takes charge of all sophomores interested in an academic course, with Mr. Turnbull in charge of the commercial or general course students. These two people are a great help to the soph- cmores in choosing their high school courses. Helpful suggestions in selecting their courses, as well as guidance in other phases of school life, are available from these counselors. ln charge of the sophomores as a group are the class advisors, Mrs. Greenlund who is the chairman, Miss lgnelzi, Miss Tripp, and Mr. Chase. These hard working teachers put all their effort and energy into organizing the sophomore class as a group. They are in charge of the sophomore elections, party, play, and any other activities put on by the class. They are also willing to talk things over with the students and give much needed and welcome advice when- ever and wherever it is necessary. The sophomores of T953-54 have shown out- standing qualities of sportsmanship, leadership, and above all, friendship. Good luck sopho- mores!

So it was with our freshmen. However, in spite of the huge, Iostling crowds, ringing bells and numerous classrooms, the newcomers soon learned the routine and fell right into step with their upperclassmen. This was brought about by the freshmen's asking the older students ques- tions, pooling their own ideas and discoveries and having various difficulties straightened out in some of their classrooms. To the freshmen, high school is a wonderful opportunity for making new friends, learning many new and interesting things, and taking part in the many school functions. One such event is the annual Senior-Frosh Day. The senior girls come to school arrayed in their most daz- zling clothes and collect lollipops from the fresh- men girls, who gayly walk around the halls in baby clothes.

Serving as class secretary is Don Kornrumpf who graduated from Goodrich Street School. Don finds sports and tropical fish fun. His ambition is to be a mechanical en- gineer. This year two of the districts that had been sending pupils to Hempstead High, built their own schools. Our freshman class is therefore smaller than usual. Because of the decreased number of students it has been harder than in previous years to raise the money for the class expenditures. These consist of providing a schol- arship, paying for the Colonial picture and fi- nancing the class party. Miss Joyce, Miss Farrior, and Mr. Helbach guide the freshmen in their class activities. With the able leadership of the class officers plus the assistance of the advisors and the fine class spirit they are sure to be an active and inter- ested class in their coming years. No matter how frightened and meek the freshmen are as they enter the portals of Hemp- stead High for the first time, by the fourth year they will be poised, self confident, more learned and good citizens of our community. 1551 ,.f 2 ig! 3 -P' Xxi 7 xX' X ? .

We of the fairer sex were happy to have an almost complete petticoat government. The weight of the presidency fell on the pretty shoulders of Norma Tranchina. Working along with Norma were Karlann Puerschner, vice president, Alice Kay, recording secretary, Carol Storms, corresponding secretary, and our male component of the group, Dick Krim, who ably bal- anced our budget. To increase the individuals' representation in the Student Council each homeroom elected a senator whose job was exactly what the name implies. Also first in the history of our Stu- dent Council were the visits to the different homerooms by our president where she spoke on the activities and duties of the Student Council. A great boost to our school spirit was given by having busses take students to away games in the football season for far less than regular fare. Two exchange students sent by the Herald Tribune became a part of our hustling crowd for two weeks. They were Nurit Auerbach from Haifa, Israel, and Wentworth IKid- diel Bossman from the Gold Coast of Africa. Our good-neighbor policy flourished during that time to such an extent that our delight- ful guests left rather reluctantly. , L- T - . g-l-l- iss' F1 ,fi fx n' X I gt' -H' .SQMJQIQC 60141161 Left to right, Row I: N.

The last finishing touches are given Friday al the printer's by the editors. There, every bit of print is read and proof read until, it is hoped, all errors have been removed. On Monday the Patriot appears again and is delivered to the homerooms by the circulation staff. To G. O. ticketholders the Patriot is free, while the cost to non-ticketholders is five cents a copy. Advertising helps to defray the cost of publication. Each year the editor-in-chief and managing editor choose the following year's editors. Head- ing the staff this year as editor-in-chief was Connie Arena and the busy seat of managing editor was occupied by Denis Towey. Other im- portant positions were held by Marilyn Ruthizer, copy and rewrite editor, Joe Krupinski, sports editor, Jacqueline Otte, feature editor, and Peter Rodler, business manager. Pat Savarese headed the circulation department.

This student organization consists ol twenty-four girls who work diligently one period, five days a week in Office lA assisting the Registrar in her many duties. ln addition, these girls also do typing, filing, and alphabetizing of the school records. The girls are divided into work groups, with some of them acting as receptionists, while others carry on the secretarial work. ln addition each member of the squad answers visitors' questions and serves as a guide. They also run errands around the school whenever the need arises. This work not only aids the school but is of real value to the girls themselves by acquainting them with the principles of business office procedure and providing them with excellent training for their future careers. Under the expert guidance of Mrs. Hueston, the Senior Service Squad has earned the enviable reputation of being one of our school's most efficient and dependable organizations.

They are under the capable direction of the dean of girls, Mrs. Foster. This organization which is now in its twentieth year, has always played an important part in the workings of our school. Office ll is always open to give help and assistance to everyone. li The girls, who are carefully selected, serve one period each clay and two weeks of late duty during the year, performing their many important tasks of typing, tiling, telephoning absentees and running many errands. Every girl benefits very much from the practice and experience she receives. It teaches her the importance ot neatness, eFFiciency and accuracy. Barbara Hurd served as chief of the girls and she was ably assisted by Arlene Seaman, and by Norma Ashe who served as secretary. 73 .X4lfl,CAO' Mduaf Shock ears and stun our eyes. -Taggard HE Audio-Visual squad, ever in demand, has this year taken on the added burden of furnishing its numerous services to the new homeroom system. As the name Audio-Visual implies, tape-recorders, phonographs, and records are available, as well as the familiar projectors and films. These have furnished, in almost every class or home room in the school, interesting and varied educational pro- grams. One of the less publicized iobs of the Audio-Visual staFf member, or aide as he is called, is the control of the school P. A. system. Under the supervision of Mr. E. C. Moore and his able assistant, Mr. Lind, the aides gain a practical insight into photography and maintenance, for their job includes the care and repair of films and equipment. The aides, led by Brian Goetke, strive to give courteous and efficient service to our school. A r f. . ,iii 'M' . 1 .Y'.- , eo' Q. Q29 l. OSX' E. ROV' W. IN.

Under the direction of Miss Mac- Dougall this group has become an important and valuable asset. The girls on the stalt, numbering twenty in all, are chosen partly on the basis of their sophomore interview with Miss MacDougall. Their chores include numerous activities such as filing, typing, distributing slips, and running errands. Also theirs is the task of making appointments for interviews with the counselors in oFHce four. ln addition to this, each girl is required to serve at least two weeks of late duty a year. These girls do an excellent job of helping to ease the work that has to be done in office four. This practice oFters excellent ex- perience for those who desire to enter the secretarial field after graduation and, at the same time, helps to develop more fully the personalities of the members.

In September each girl from this group is assigned to a teacher, who is the head of one of the departments. This system of selection may work two ways. The teacher may select a particular girl, or the girl may choose a certain favorite teacher tor whom she would like to work. Their work consists of any secretarial work the teacher may want them to do. Some of their more important tasks are: mimeographing tests, filing papers of importance, and typing. Their quota of work is four hours a week, and their tasks are distributed throughout the free periods of their school day. These secretaries have the privi- lege of using the work room in which there are typewriters, mimeo- graph machines, and electric copyrite duplicators. All of these are at their disposal. A great maiority of the girls have been previously trained in the use of these intricate machines. Under the able supervision of Mrs. Schryver, each girl has become a great help to her teacher. We might say she is a girl Friday to the department chairman. 1...-Q 55 ,EL LQ ll ,TJ Left to right, Row If V. Barry M. Testini, L. Audet, R. Catalano, G. Comstock, M. Olin. Row ll: A.

In this extremely active organization, the members are constantly trying to better their shooting accuracy and thereby raise their rank in the National Rifle Association to which the club belongs. Upon meeting certain qualifications the male members are advanced to membership in the Rifle Team. The ritte range was open twice daily this past year. Under the watchful eye of the club's advisor and friend, Mr. Voorhies, the members took their turn shooting. Because of the excellent attend- ance ofthe club and the large membership the quarters were usually very crowded. The members set up tables and either played checkers or talked over their previous scores while awaiting their turn to use their own or the school's rifles. The school equipment is considered to be the best available. The club is ably led by its president Dick Schaefer and vice presi- dent Bob Walsleben. 78 flall patrol . . and o'er the dreaded realm of fear so grimly held the guard. -Brownell Z.

This is made up of a select group of girls mostly upperclass- men, who help to keep the bandbox running smoothly. As their name implies, they act as secretaries for the music teachers.and also hostesses to visitors. When the teachers are busy, the girls answer the telephone, take messages, do tiling and practically anything else that happens to need doing. Sometimes they act as guides to visitors, and explain the func- tions of each section of the bandbox.

Under the capable direction of Mrs. Oman, the club had another successful year in that its members learned to appreciate the val- ues of art. The officers ofthe eighth period meeting were: president, Sue Horton, vice-president, Betsy Hughes, secretary, Lois Blanshan, and treasurer, Carol McWilliams. The ninth period officers were as follows: Jane Shurtlehi, president, June Levinson, secretary, and Rosemary Hine, treasurer. ion eerri Few things are impossible to diligence and skill. -Johnson HE Pioneer Club, the freshman honor club for girls, was established for the purpose of blazing a trail of scholarship, leadership, and service to be followed throughout their high school days. This group does not only function throughout the schoolday, but the members engage in many outside activities connected with the club. Their recent trip to the theater was one of these events, and for companionship on the trail of scholarship a ioint meeting was held with the Pathfinders, the boys' honor group. The group of seventeen, advised by the af- fable Miss Congiu, elected Mary Drewal to hold the office of president, Joan Freudenburger as secretary, and Sheila Slade as the all-important treasurer. 19 ailihn em A lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. -Psalms CHOLARSHIP and leadership are the goals of the freshman boys' honor society, the Pathtlnders. The membership is composed of boys who have an average of ninety or above in each of four maior subiects and maintain this average throughout the year. As the club was not formed until after the first marking period, plans for the Christmas party were the first on the agenda. This year the party was given iointly with the freshman girls' honor society, the Pioneers. There was dancing, refreshments, and an enioyable time was had by all. Robert Matthews presided over the meetings, William Ausman was the combined secretary and treasurer, and Robert Nimeman was the vice- president.

OFCA Q6 fl Cl, He that has a taste of music is like one that has another sense. -Addison NCE again proving that young people can produce top flight music when given the chance, Miss Boyle and her staFf have brought our orchestra through another year during which the acclaim and honor of the post were renewed. Of course the underlying purpose of this organization is not primarily acclaim, but rather to givci valuable experience in cooperative endeavor and to heighten the appreciation ot its participants. The secret of this successful group is not individual musical genius, but rather the tremendous amount of individual, as well as ensemble, rehearsing and prac- tice. This practice is done in sectionals and full rehearsals which are held on Saturdays and sometimes evenings. The astonishing thing is that many of the busy members Gnd time to be honor students and participate in extra-curricular activities. The reward for this great amount of work came when the world-renowned Leopold Stokowski offered to come to Hempstead and conduct one of our concerts. If things go according to plan Mr. Stokowski will be here next fall. In preparation for this event the orchestra participated in the music department's Christmas festival in the auditorium, playing Tschai- kowsky's Fifth Symphony. At the winter concert in March the orchestra presented an ambi- tious program conducted by Mr. Samuel Antek. Mr. Antek, who has Miss McQueen, Mr. Albinski, Miss Boyle TS 88 FIRST VIOLIN: J.

This number is an adaptation of Walt Whitman's poems for orchestra and choir.

C400 'lYour most sweet voices. -Shakespeare HROUGH the untiring efforts of Miss Esther McQueen, this year's - A Capella Choir has maintained the high standards set by pre- vious groups. Since l93l, the year of its beginning, Hempstead High School's A Capella Choir has grown until it now has a mem- bership of l5O mixed voices. It is a select group whose members are chosen from freshman and Sophomore glee clubs. This year, as in past years, the Choir accompanied by the orches- tra, was a guest at the Elk's Club annual dinner. The choir received many gracious compliments on its performance. One of the most flattering was received from Mr. Archie Blyer of radio and tele- vision fame. This year's invitation to entertain at Wagner College had to be refused, inasmuch as it coincided with the date of our own Christ- mas Concert held in the school auditorium. Maintaining an old tradi- tion the Choir helped to bring the Christmas spirit to the faculty and student body by carolling through the halls. The twenty-third annual winter concert was held on March 24, in the Hempstead Theatre. The Choir sang The Creation which was narrated by Mr. Luke White. lt also sang A Free Song conducted by Mr. Samuel Antek. As usual there were several well-known guest conductors and soloists. A lot of time, patience and eFfort are required to get the Choir in shape for its many concerts. There are sectional rehearsals held each afternoon, also many Saturday rehearsals. Small wonder that our Choir turns in such fine performances. QR 33 -,Cu all 243. file - l SOPRANOS: A. Gillespie, M. Leverich, E. I-tucks, J. Ryans, J. Koksiek, M. Faulkner, J. Stack, S. Alpin, C.

How much less exciting our foot- ball games would be without the colorful pageantry of the marching band and entourage. Miss Boyle and Mr. Albinslci have this year as in the past, by their careful and ingenious planning exploited the talents of the more than 300 students who participate. The mammoth eFfort of this entire group, and their advisors, involv- ing complex, and tedious details, has resulted in the widely heralded program which is literally putting Hempstead on the map. Last year Paramount' Studios did a film story of our show, and this year the LOOK staff prepared a feature article dealing with the show which is to appear shortly in that magazine. However, the band show is far from being the year's only en- deavor. Once football season is over these aspiring young musicians launch their serious concert program. Again, under the guiding hand of Miss Boyle and Mr. Albinski, innumerable sectionals and full rehearsals are conducted to bring performance closer to perfection. ln addition to playing for the Christmas Festival, the band con- tributed its share to the Winter Concert at the Hempstead Theatre, under the baton'of well-known Paul Lavalle, conductor of the Band of America. Mr. Lavalle conducted several of his own compositions. The band finished the year by participating in the Spring Concert held in May. 4 4 0 1 , . , f , ' 7 y f 0 if f' f ' H 5 ' ? r n A it , A - L' , 43,0 ,, , W ,, 1 I ' I ,, . 1 , n, , G f.. fg PICCOLO: E.

Original membership is based on the freshman year average. The aim of the club is to widen the cultural background and develop the intellectual capacity of its ex- cellent membership. This is carried out under the capable leader- ship and helpful guidance of Mrs. Marshall, advisor to the club. At their first meeting, the boys chose their ollticers. Allen Frost was elected President, while Jack Consenz was chosen Vice-President. Henry Pavony received the post as Secretary, and the iob of keeping the finances straight was given to Henry Szabronski. The brains engaged in many worth while discussions on a variety of subiects. As usual, Mr. Pill addressed the club on require- ments for colleges. At another meeting Judge Gehrig spoke on the legal aspects and responsibilities of driving an automobile. A dem- onstration on the preparation of slides was given at a later meeting. 94 Puffs.

They have achieved an average of ninety per cent or better in four gf maior subiects. Advised by Miss Gunnerson, this club's ideals are to promote leadership, scholarship, and fellowship. X., The able-bodied slate of officers for the past year were: Leonora ,Xe Ruggieri, president, Priscilla Tedesco, secretary, Margaret Whitney, , 272 treasurer, and Sandra Wood, vice-president. Acting as usherettes at Open House was just one of the many X services rendered. Whenever community or school service was called xxx for, the girls were right on the iob. A party was held forthe Pioneer i .442 Club, true to the yearly tradition. Later on a cake sale was held to raise the treasury's capital. In the spring an excursion to New York was undertaken. Besides various speakers and films, one of the year's highlights was a visit by sophomore counselor, Miss MacDougall, who spoke on The use of special talents. A prize of five dollars is awarded annually to the girl who at- tained the highest average during her sophomore year. This year that honor went to Sybil Horowitz. Lett to right, Row I: M.

Ably guided by Mr. Davidson, they are delving into numerous and varied problems of today's business world. The students start their classwork first period and it is arranged for them to leave at l2:OO noon to start their various jobs. Mr. Davidson works with the stores in seeing to it that students are prop- erly adiusted to their work in both its social and business aspects. As a general rule, the students not only do their work well, but what is more, then enjoy doing it! ln their first year of co-operative retailing the students do not have to work, but in their second year they are required to put in approximately fifteen hours of work per week, and as a rule they work full time during holidays. The experiences these students are gaining as active members of business in addition to the social contacts with the personnel, will prove invaluable to them in the future. Mr. Davidson is training these students to be vocationally com- petent workers in the retail and wholesale field. Our best wishes for continued success to this group. . f 7- . l X BMKLE ko x-'xrv E lbvuch Left to right, Row I: D. Bernecki, G. Watts, P. Stecker, G. Mesch, T. De Loreno, L. Akley, A. Giuffre, E.

He's that time gent you saw at the Tuesday after- noon sessions helping students to learn the dances of various countries. About 25 boys and 25 girls attended these sessions for fun while learning. Even the boys, who were a bit skeptical about these danc- ing lessons, enjoyed themselves thoroughly. The Girls Gym provided ample space for the meetings of the Hempstead students and parents. These were not folk dances but T' Square Dances sponsored by the P. T. A. There were good turnouts at each one. Mr. Fred Franz' fine calling to various tunes such as Red River Gal, Take A Peek! , and others, helped the parents, teachers and students to trip the light fantastic. The twenty-five cent admis- sion to these social gatherings was insignificant considering the eve- ning of gaiety derived from them. So come one, come all, grab your gal and bring her around to the '55 Folk Dance Club. 97 imeogralak .xdicleft Practice in time becomes second nature, Unknown Left to right, Row If D. Magnuson, M.

Ad- vised by Mr. Nilsson, the meetings were pre- sided over by Doug Smith with Armand Fiorenza assisting and Dick Schaefer taking over the duties of secretary-treasurer. The only requirements for membership in this athletic club is a varsity letter in any varsity sport. The members, easily recognized by their gray and blue iackets, set as one of their aims the improvement of school spirit in sports events. The boys assisted at many of the sporting events such as basketball games where they act- ed as a patrol, checked tickets and kept order. Although one of Hempstead's younger organi- zations, the Varsity Club has made its influence felt around the school. 6ll'l'LQlf'6l Say 'cheesef ' '-Anonymous HE guiding spirit ot the Camera Club is Mr. Smith.

Presently this squad is composed of nine girls who are seniors or iuniors. General good appearance, friendliness, personality, the ability to learn quickly, and good scholastic average are the quali- ties which each girl on this squad must possess. This group of effi- cient girls are carefully chosen by Mr. Beddow and Mrs. Anderson. The girls' names are suggested by the senior members of the squad and teachers. Among their many tasks, the girls enioy most of all working on the switchboard. ln order to carry out this iob efficiently, the girls are instructed in the use of the switchboard. Their many iobs require concentration, alertness and efficiency. The organization usually held meetings once a month and a Christmas Party is normally included on the agenda. This fine group proves itself of great help to office one and its service is appreciated. ln return the girls receive excellent experience in clerical work which some may come to use in later years. lOl fffffff ' . ,.

Any Sophomore is eligible to try out for the group. During the year, members read for parts in the group's annual play. This year the Sophomores presented Growing Pains. This action comedy takes place on the patio of the Mclntyre home in Southern California. George and Terry Mclntyre portrayed by John Manton and Wilma McCor- mack respectively faced typical teenage prob- lems. Supporting roles were played by Judy Kohsiek, David Nessman, Melvin Fox, Lois Pat- tison, Marie Passidomo, and as an added at- traction, a dog. Under the direction of Mrs. Kantzler, the group was well rewarded for its efforts. As- sisted by the upper class stage crew, Miss Ran- dall created a gay and colorful stage set. From all points of view Growing Pains was a huge success. joofkglf CM All the world's a stage and all the men and women merely players. -Shakespeare VERYBODY wants to get into the act, as Durante is so fond of saying, but few can do it with the consumate artistry of our Foot- light Club, which is composed of interested Juniors and Seniors. The George Bernard Shaw play Pygmalion was chosen for this year's performance. lt was an excellent choice because it had many clever lines and afforded the cost much opportunity for developing their characterizations. The dramatis personae are not stereotyped, they are all on the eccentric side. The play does not tend to become traditional but remains fluid in interpretation. Mrs. Kantzler, the club's able director, was very enthusiastic, and justly so. ln the Auditorium on February fifth and sixth the play was per- formed before an enthralled audience.

This popular and busy organization was composed of thirty members with Monica Testin as president, Marie Filiberto, vice- president, Joan Baumgartner, secretary, and Joyce Seaman, treas- urer. Miss Silver was the able and well-liked advisor of the club. One of their latest recent proiects was aiding Meadowbrook Hospital in various ways. At their annual Christmas party each girl brought a small gift for a child at the hospital. The club's Thanksgiving party combined work with play. After the social hour, the girls made place cards for meal trays at Meadow- 7 brook. The meetings sometimes took the form of discussions on various problems in the business world. The members also visited a promi- nent business establishment. The Key Klickers is a worthwhile organization for girls taking commercial subiects. Its purpose is to help develop and broaden their knowledge of the business world in all its phases. lt also pro- vides the girls with an opportunity to meet with others of similar interests. 106 Left to right, Row I.

Their chores include alphabetizing, tiling various papers, sending out the ever-familiar pink slips, and running other errands for the teachers in the office. Each year Miss Ronnerman, Mr. Pill's secretary, and Mr. Pill choose someone who they think is capable of being a leader to head the squad. This year the honor was given to Barbara McCIuskey. This privilege is bestowed upon the girl or boy who shows the most inter- est in others and who is eFHcient. The boys and girls on the Office 5 Squad had a big party at Christmas, with four ice cream cakes, cookies, candy and other delicacies. They picked the names of the teachers and other mem- bers ot the squad and bought presents for one another. The group had great fun at this yearly affair. 107 Books must follow sciences, and not sciences books, -Bacon NDER the leadership and expert guidance of Mr. Franklin Faust, the advanced science club, composed of junior and senior students enjoyed a wonderful year in so far as physics and chemistry are concerned. These know- hows probed into the complex matrix of the atom. In addition to films and slides, stu- dent projects and debates were held. The human blood and its constituents were discussed at one of the meetings. A heated debate was held on the pos- sibilities of reaching Mars. Food for thought was provided by an enlighten- ing discussion of H. G. Wells' new book which foretells certain extraordinary events which may be of great concern to us in the future. This year's officers included: Richard Keats, presidents, Donald Bernstein, vice-president, Marcella Broderick, sec- retary, and Emanual Schaffer held tight- ly to the purse strings. Knowledge is power. -Hobbes HIS organization of newcomers, un- der the advisorship of Mr. Lawson, prepared the way for a better under- standing of science. The students participated in projects which were both interesting and enjoy- able. Field trips to places of interest familiarized the student with the impor- tant role science plays in everyday life. Mrs. Lawson, a Medical Technologist, provided data and information on blood and the significant role it plays in life. The conscientious handling of the presi- dential post was taken over by John Ramo with Edward Goff assisting. Irene Cole as secretary took the minutes, while Sally Keller received the money. xy I hm I Left to right, Row I: E. Schaffer, M. Broderick, R. Keats Row ll: P. Cabble, A. Felsen, Mr. Faust, D.

As a result of their work the students enioy a delicious hot or cold lunch fit for the taste of any gourmet. A group of our able-bodied young men contribute one or two periods a day to help out by washing trays, dishes and silver- ware. The cafeteria has a very modern diswashing machine. This handy product of our machine age is built to wash and sterilize the dishes and silverware. Saving our young men from dish pan hands is another of its wonderful features. Teachers are assigned to assist at each lunch period, and to- gether with the Cafeteria Squad help make the cafeteria an orderly and pleasant place in which to eat. The boys that make up our Cafeteria Squad are not organized into a club, but they work together in perfect harmony to keep our cafeteria up to its high standard. Left to right, Row If B. Williams, D.

Many thanks must be given to Mr. John Lewis Geisler who showed his own color slides of Germany's winter wonderland. They high- lighted the ski area of Garmisch-Partinkirche where the winter olympics of T936 were held. This interesting program was held in the fall and was attended by more than one hundred students of the German classes. The fourth year German students in the Junior-Senior Club had an amusing experience when they recorded their own translation of Sty George and the Dragon. The Freshman-Sophomore section held a special Thanksgiving party that was enjoyed by all. The annual Christmas party was the biggest event of the year. It was held in the Girl's Gym where the students pitched in, helping with refreshments and entertainment.

At the beginning of the season the band gave its best performance, when it played at the Polo Grounds. lt was a great honor to know that Hempstead was chosen from many bands on Long Island to play at this enormous stadium. The crowds loved our show, and proved it by their magnanimous applause. The Christmas Pa- rade tor a local store was another event at which the Hempstead Band was featured. It produced a large turnout, in spite of poor weather conditions. Even the widely read maga- zine, Look, sent photographers to Hempstead to take pictures of our well-known band in action. Although the cheerleaders do not participate directly in the shown, they help supply the back- ing that our team needs while playing, and their stimulating Blue and White cheers led our team to victory. Varsity Cheerleaders had two wonderful girls as captains: Carol Storms and Beverly O'Neill, and the J. V. Cheerleaders were glad to have Jean Romano as heir captain. The Drum Maiorettes in their tall hats and their batons were Barbara Noble and Joanne Miller. They led our band to triumph-a triumph which will be remembered by all. All these attractions put together, give us what has be- come one of Long lsland's best-The Hempstead Marching Band. GLOCKENSPIEL Left to right, Row l. B. Kilian, M. Browne, M. Drewol, B. Stotz, C.

Although many of last year's out- standing players had been lost to West Hempstead, our school still had a strong and well playing team. Our line, coached by Mr. Beck, was strengthened by the blocking and tackling of bruisers like Richard Desmond, Josh Margiotta, Ed Suchan, and John Arsell while Mr. Keenan's powerful backfield, starring Adrian Butash, Tom Forbes, George Stevenson, and Roosevelt King, was ready to attack any opposition. With co-captains Adrian Butash, George Stevenson, and Josh Margiotta leading the team, we were ready to go. ln the season's first clash, our gridders scored an impressive 19-6 victory over a not too strong, but nevertheless hard fighting Great Neck team. lt was by extra points, which were to plague our team in more than one game, that a well playing Freeport team eked out a 7-6 vic- tory. ln the third game, Valley Stream suffered a 12-7 defeat at the hands of our battling Tigers, although a series of iniuries lasting all season had already started to weaken the latter. lt was again the extra points that gave the Mineola squad a 14-12 victory over us. We plunged into combat against Baldwin, the league's most power- ful team, with seven injured men missing from our starting lineup, and were blanked 20-0 in a losing struggle. l 4 'J -4. J.

By the end of the first quarter, however, they were back out again and once more we were blanked, this time 21-O. Sewanhaka profiting from our bad luck in extra points, and in the sixth game walked off with a 7-6 victory. The final game of the season, played on Thanksgiv- ing Day, gave our team its third and most cov- eted triumph. In this 28-O romp over Glen Cove, we retained for one more year the traditional Chapman Memorial Bell, finishing up the sea- son on a victorious note. This was the fourth season in which Mr. Schuessler guided our varsity in his position as head coach. Knowing that all the fellows played their very best, he was well satisfied with their record of 3 wins and 5 losses. He does believe, however, that had it not been for the numerous injuries our squad suffered, two or three of the games, Baldwin and Mepham in particular, might have been a different story. Mr. Voorhies, in charge of the team's medical treatment, cites the iniuries of Bob Adamo, Josh Margiotta, and John Arsell as particularly damaging. All told, however, the season is generally considered to have been a successful one. Coach Schuessler is looking forward to an even better team next season. With Tom Forbes and John Arsell as co-captains, seven veterans from this year's varsity back in the lineup, and some excellent material coming up from the Junior Varsity, his expectations are well founded. Even now, everybody's eye is on bringing the Triple-A Championship back to Hempstead.

Kennedy, Meddis, and Desmond captained the team which as a result of Mr. Benner's retirement was now under the aegis of a new coach, the popular John Mills. Coach Mills got to know his players quickly and soon had them in terrific shape. Baldwin, Freeport, Oceanside, and Sewanhaka each lost their two games to us. Mepham took one, 52-50, and dropped the other, 72-59, Central beat us once by a close All-40, and lost to us, 77-67, in the big game against Lawrence, we were tripped up in one, 8l-60, but won the other in a sudden-death overtime by a score of 66-64. Had it not been for the illness of Cheshire and Desmond, we might have finished with a better record than our outstanding one of lO wins and only four losses. With many of our topnotch players returning next year, we can look forward to a bang-up season. Suchon, H, Kennedy Left to right, Row I: P. Baldassurre, E. Suchan, F. Salantri, F. Monteiro, F.

After such a terrific start, Mr. Schuess- ler, Hempstead's fine coach, believed that he had the foundations laid for a team better than that of the year before, however, the season's tally was the same. lt' seemed as though 3 was the season's unlucky number, which was proved by the Tigers' loss of three consecutive games to Mepham, Valley Stream, Lawrence, and Sewanhaka. With the aid of captain Mike Ricigliano, a powerful defensive was set up with George Docteroff at first, Brian Gage, second, Ed Suchan at third and Jerry Ryan as short stop. Left field, Center and Right field were played by Dave Hawks, Buddy Dreitlein, and Mike Ricigliano respectively. Pitchers Hal Kennedy and Tommy Forbes kept catcher Frank Dovinsky very busy, especially in Hal Kennedy's one hitter game against Freeport. Despite some swell pitching and all around good playing, Hemp- stead ended the season with 5 wins and i3 losses, placing 5th in the league. Better luck next year! Left to right, R. Davies, L. T.

The captain of this year's Rifle Team was Ronald Hess, and the rest of the team was composed of: Robert Walsleben, Richard Schaefer, Ed Grimm, Frank Campbell, Bruce Everett, John Peters, Ken Gutekunst, Bruce Blower, Jerry Claffie, and Roger Augustine. The team came in second in the Nassau County lnterscholastic League, winning fourteen out of seventeen matches, and they are the holders of this year's Section 8 crown. The figure 918 seems to have been very popular this year. It was the score with which they beat Mepham in their last match of the season, it gave Hempstead the title of the new 20 minute time limit champion, and was the highest score in the League this season.

The squad was soon cut to forty members, because of the difficulty of getting to the Jackson School practice field since our own field was not finished. Of the forty players, only twelve had any previous experience in organized football. This, combined with the boys' small physique was the team's greatest handicap, but with the fine coaching of the capable Mr. George Wilson, the team came through winning their first 2 games of the season against Great Neck H9-Ol and Valley Stream l7-Ol. After losing to a more experienced Freeport lO-l4l, the game with Mineola resulted in a scoreless tie. The remainder of the season was victorious, with the exception of the loss to the heavily loaded Mepham squad lO-28l. The outstanding wins were those over Bald- win ll3-Ol and Sewhanhaka l24-Ol. The season's record was five wins, two losses, and a tie. At the close of the season the following boys moved up to finish the season with the Varsity team: Ends: Ted Blake, Jerry Flannery, Al Waugh.

These boys played each game with vim and vigor, giving all their opponents a hard and good game. This is confirmed by the fact that most of Hempstead's victors won by only two or three points. The season got under way with three straight defeats over West- bury, Mineola and again Westbury, the scores being 45-35, 41-40 and 21-20. After losing to Central 27-42 they shaded Freeport 34-31 who later on in the season came back with a revenge victory 48-49. Following a defeat by Lawrence 44-57, the team edged Sewanhaka 54-53 and then had a 65-55 romp over Baldwin. The last two games resulted in a return defeat by Central 39-55 and a victory over Oceanside 55-27 ending the season with a record of 10 wins and 8 losses. Among the key players who starred were, George Bookhard, Jim Turnbull, Eugene Tempel, Jim Maguire, and Arnold Davies, who scored 20 points for the highest personal score. With Mr. Krause returning as coach next year, we hope for an even better team for '55. 136 fl Q Left to right: D. Krim, J Turnbull, R. Blumenthal R. Davies, M. Popowitch Mr. Krause, G. Bookhard J.

WOJern ance On with the dance! let joy be unconfinedf'-Byron ANCE cmd you'll dance your cares away appears to be the motto of our modern dance girls. Each one displays grace and skill of an art which requires much of the dancer's time and eFfort. However, it takes more than these characteristics to be a dancer. Since they create many of their dances, the girls must bring imagination to their art. Every girl who is in one of the regular modern dance classes is eligible to try out for the club. Although many ofthe girls have never had any experience in this field of dancing, they soon become skilled under the able coaching of Mrs. Barry. This year the club elected Marilyn Brooks as its leader and Pat Cobble as her assistant. The girls give one of their most dazzling performances at Greek Games when they honor a Greek god or goddess. The dancers also give another memorable performance on Class Night. All girls who possess the enthusiasm and willingness required, soon find this activity no longer arduous but rather fun to learn as well as perform. 138 Sf 7 1 5 , ' 'Tj 'X Left to right, Row I: M.

Eleanor Phelps, a very competent aide, is student leader of the gym aides, while Miss Marion MacCallum, better known to girls as Miss Mac, is the advisor and guide for the group.

Each girl is chosen for her aptitude and interest in the particular sport in which she excels. Head of the Gym Aides for this year was Eleanor Phelps and Student Chairman of Greek Games was Joan Dawson. The cheer- leaders were headed by Carol Storms and Beverly O'Neil.

Among the many participants, Mary Rue, Eleanor Phelps, Joan Schwarzman, Phil Mannino, Lynn King, and Terry Serpa won top honors. Under the careful guidance of a capable as well as vivacious stu- dent' leader, Lynn King, and a wonderful coach, Miss Mac, our teams made a good showing in the Great Neck and Garden City matches. ing on? With many a stiff thwack, many a bang, -Butler URING the fall, there were thirty-five members in the Ping Pong Club. Among those, Rhoda Schaeffer, Elaine Johansen, Marilyn Schwitz, Toby Crags, Angie Kyranakis, and Johanne Bumback were leading players. The girls played a double tournament in Great Neck, won by Rhoda Schaeffer and Elaine Johansen. Advising the group was Mrs. Reicher. Miss Mac's winter group consisted of only eight. Since there were so few, the girls occasionally invited others in to play. Games played were Round Robin, Tournaments, singles and doubles. The captain of the club was Angie Kyranakis. ing - Wnfon The little pleasure of the game . . , -Montague HIS year the Girls' Athletic Department, faced with a large turn- out for both sports, decided to divide the group in half, with one half playing Ping Pong one day and Badminton the other, thus everyone was given an opportunity to play. Those who wished to participate in only one of these sports on both days were also accommodated. Matches were played between fh05e playing daily and those playing on alternate days. Naturally, the dailies defeated consistently those who played on alternate days. With Miss Mac coaching Ping Pong and Mrs. Reicher badminton, this new combined sports idea provided variety as well as enioy- ment for everyone who PlUYeCl- 143 4t....X! 7 Rod J 6.5 ,fix Z X.

The melodious voices of the Girls Glee Club hold one's complete attention and admiration. The Greek National Anthem, followed by Glorious Forever provided the overture for the spectacle to follow. ln the l953 edition the Athenians entered with precision hard to equal and were followed by the flowery entrance of the Spartans. Betty Kerr dashed out on the floor and uttered a challenge to the Spartans that shook the very room. lt was accepted by Sandra Fer- gang, who met this challenge as a lion would meet that of a lamb. Prometheus, the God to whom the T953 games were dedicated, was invoked by the priestesses to lead their respective teams to victory. Lorraine Gomillion, Chairman of that year's games, gave Shirley Morrell the word to sound a mighty blast to herald Emily Moore's winning ode which she recited exquisitely. The first event, hurdling, won by Barbara Hayes, received won- derful applause, as each contestant gracefully glided over the hurdles. The mighty discus throwers came out on the floor and over- whelming cheers went up as Betty Sachleben and Joan Wright tied for first place. The beautiful dance, Prometheus, Creator of Mankind, in which Suc Krim was Prometheus, Elsie Dobler, Flame, and Gail Anderson, Hope, was performed by the students of Modern Dance.

The wreaths were awarded, and the games drew to a close. The spectators returned home to the modern world hoping that the year would pass quickly so that they could again witness that exciting event-The Greek Games.

Qirwkng 6 ONCLUDING his first year as Hempstead's varsity basketball coach is one of our favor- ite history profs, Mr. John Mills. His personal history includes four years of high school play- ing followed by frosh and two years of varsity at Hofstra before being called to serve three years for Uncle Sam. When Johnny Came Marching Home Again, he returned for his last college year, during which his spectacular playing attracted atten- tion. He was chosen for the third All-American college team and the first All-Metropolitan team. As one of the ten best senior players east of the Mississippi, he played in the annual Herald Tribune Fresh Air Fund East-West game. ln three years of college he shot 1255 points, 477 of them in his last year. Following five years' coaching Hofstra's fresh- man team, he came to Hempstead to teach his- tory and coach freshman basketball his first year. This year he took charge of the varsity squad. With the previous season's record im- possible to beat and a miracle to equal, and with so few players remaining, he was naturally under a certain amount of pressure. Coach Mills can rightly be optimistic concerning the future and proud of his first year as Hempstead's var- sity basketball coach. Complimerfrs of HEMPSTEAD BANK HEMPSTEAD, N. Y.

There were two daily lo minute breaks for tea! lPicture tea-time at HHS!l There was no homework lhurry kids the boat's leavingl, no study periods and a six day school week lyou can unpack nowl. She said English girls were unsophisticated using little cosmetics or iewelry. There was no gum chewing, formal student-teacher relations lwhich she felt was a hindrancel and extreme politeness everywhere lstudents waited for teach- ers to enter the room before entering them- selves and waited for teachers' invitations to be seatedl. Miss Beighley was fortunate to be there during Coronation time. British students were all given souvenirs by the government. She spent an en- tire night on the Mall to see the Coronation procession.

Ofuatey Kodioe. 6YCA6tIflgQ .S?lfl,6!8I'lf5 HIS year we were fortunate in having two foreign students visit Hempstead. They were Nurit Auerbach, a sixteen-year-old girl from ls- rael, and Wentworth Bossman Obuarey Kodioe lKiddie for shortll from the Gold Coast of Africa. Nurit comes from a town called Haifa while Kiddie's home is the capital of the Gold Coast, Accra. The two speak fluently several languages in- cluding English. Nurit studies history, mathemat- ics, Bible, Hebrew, literature, English, Latin, philosophy, physics, and gymnastics. Kiddie studies these, plus chemistry, biology, and four tribal languages. Following a series of tests sponsored by the Herald Tribune, Nurit and Kiddie were chosen from among competing students and came to the U. S. on T. W. A. and Pan American Airlines. Both Kiddie and Nurit greatly enjoyed the snow. Kiddie, who is used to a much warmer climate, felt that although beautiful to look at, it was too cold. The students' visit was supervised by Mr. Beckett, with the aid of Norma Tranchina and Alice Kay, who helped make their stay one which they both enjoyed thoroughly. The entire student body, as well as Nurit and Kiddie them- selves, benefitted greatly from the visit of these two young people.

This efficient group of men and women, who are always ready to help a teacher or pupil in distress, quietly go about their work making our school a clean and com- fortable place in which to study and learn. Clean shining floors, paper-free desks, good lighting, and comfortably heated rooms are evi- dence of their routine work. Many of our cus- todians will not soon forget one of the very amusing iobs they performed recently after school. On that afternoon they extracted a very distressed freshman from his locker. Their work plays a big part in making our school one in which we can take pride. Tel, l-lEn1pste-ed 2-9424 NASSAU LUNCH Open Day and Night 72 MAIN STREET HEMPSTEAD, N.

Representing a church front on a London street, it was used in Act One, Scene One, of the school play, Pygma- lion by George Bernard Shaw. Doing the actual portraying of roles in a play can be a thrilling and fascinating experience, as Pat Wilson lwho was Eliza Doolittlel, John Cosgriff lThe professorl, Hue Babinski Ithe colo- nell, and the supporting cast will readily testify, but working backstage in a dramatic production can be just as much fun and equally beneficial to the workers. Certainly the behind-the-scenes work is every bit as essential to the finished product as the acting itself. Lighting, sound ef- fects, costumes, scenery, make-up, props, all these the audience is little aware of when watch- ing a play, but would undoubtedly miss were they not there at all.

That in itself may not sound very exciting, but the photographer actu- ally is a woman, Miss Charlotte Brooks. During the football season, the band was honored to have Miss Brooks and a reporter from Look come to write a feature article on the band show and how it assembled and per- formed at football games. Miss Brooks went around snapping pictures of the rehearsals and the actual performance, besides taking numer- ous candid shots to get a complete view of the band's formation of the Merry Oldsmobile. She had to take the picture from a very high place. The village was generous enough to send a hook and ladder truck, from which our acro- batic photographer could get aerial views. The feature article was to come out either in a late spring or early fall issue. We're sure the band members are looking forward to seeing themselves in a nation wide magazine.

I-IEMPSTEAD NEW YORK f0O ecard 0 uriinefad giclucafion in fAe LTHOUGH we take commercial subiects in our school for granted nowadays, they weren't always considered an integral part ot a school's curriculum. Some were taught in l904. Our own commercial department was organized as late as l9l3 and was later renamed Business Education in l952. In l922 a chairman was appointed, the tirst of any department in the school. Later a placement service was started, a two-year transcription course oFlered, a book- let concerning our commercial department pub- lished, a color filmstrip ot commercial classes made, and a new syllabus for retailing students written and used in their English class. An Every- day Business syllabus prepared by some of our teachers was adopted by the state. For fellowship and enioyment to coincide with studies, the Commercial Club was formed in l922 and the Key Klickers in l948. This year there are 650 full-time students, 731 total students enrolled in the department, representing 63 '70 of the entire student body in the school. The largest number of teachers was I5, in l952-53. There are now l3. In Nassau County, our department is second in size only to one other high school. In contests, commercial students have won four prize cups, several Gregg banners, cash awards and certificates. Congratulations to this department for its years of excellent service.

SEM PLE, Proprietor Cxrififmcw af HE melodious voices of the choir caroling through the halls was a welcome sound dur- ing the Yule season. The first voices created a magnificent atmosphere that really inspired a Christmas mood and temporary relief from studies was a welcome prelude to that long- awaited vacation. We all felt like singing and sometimes did unless, of course, our voices were so unbearable we feared downpour of books thrown our way for ruining the professionals' caroling. The bell rang and as you proceeded down the hall you stopped while passing by the glit- tering Christmas tree on the main staircase with its tinsel and lights reflecting glory all about. Cne felt a lift and inspiration by it all. During Christmas at Hempstead High School in l953, we might have wished we were part of Mr. Zara's homeroom which was celebrating this festive season with a pizza party. Mmmmmmml Numerous other homerooms were having parties too, but if you could have waited until after school you would have seen a gala iamboree in room 23, with every form of entertainment from harp playing to the Bunny-Hop. This was our very own Colonial Party. ln whatever way you celebrated, I am sure you will always remember Christmas at Hemp- stead High School, l953.

Last year's iuniors out-did them- selves in transforming the un-romantic gym into the sparkling atmosphere of Paris. John King, Chairman, and the many students who devoted much time and effort to the under- taking, deserve the credit, along with thanks to the chaperones and custodians who co-operated whole-heartedly, despite the late date of the aPfair, Even the temperature which wilted cor- sages tailed to dampen the spirits of the gay crowd. The event also furnished ample oppor- tunity for souvenir hunters, who in the excite- ment playfully tried to cart away sections of the Gym itself. It was all in the spirit of fun, though, and all too soon the hour came for the couples to say adieu to this intriguing atmosphere . . . at least until the next prom.

He was not only a competent teacher, but also an enthusiastic friend to all. He commanded both the love and the respect of each member of the Music Department. They held, and still hold him as an example of the perfect friend, one to whom they could come and share the ioys and sorrows of the day.
