We pay tribute, also, to your two decades as the inspiring head ot our annual Greek Games. As our teacher-friend you have won a place in the hearts of all those students who have had the pleasant experience of working with you. We will always remember your gay personality, your under- standing kindness, and your ever-present smile. To express its sincere admiration, the staFf of the 1955 Colonial aftectionately and appreciatively dedi- cates this yearbook to you- Miss Marion MacCalIum. i I' W ,M 0, f Af , 7f U , W f 'msmwy7:Y , V , 1 me , Q, f 'v Wh, ,f f gn: v , , , . 1 fyigi,-9 'Wi ,--f,v,,45,,fv: ,am 5 '- Z:,jg,f,3-,, f 53 ,7 - ' FCREWCRD This is our country, the United States of America. It is a democratic union, we are a free and happy people. Often our thoughts take us back to times gone by and we view in retrospect our historic past. We see courageous pilgrims as they lay the founda- tion of freedom and democracy. We see the sons of these pilgrims playing important roles in the drama of those crucial periods in our history, from which our country was destined to emerge in order to take another step forward towards establishing the peace-loving, united nation that it is today. Just as the events of our past are recorded in history books, so are the activities and events of this school year recorded on the pages of the 1955 Colonial. We have endeavored to put forth a book to which, in years to come, you will turn with a feeling of pride and perhaps of nostalgia as you reflect on your sometimes sad, sometimes happy, but always memorable high school days. Our theme portrays the highlights of our historic past. ln so doing, we pay due homage to our glorious American heritage. Here, then is the finished product, the result of a year's efforts, our and now your 1955 Colonial.

A striking example is the case of our own Dr. Kincaid, who has achieved notable success in his manifold duties. Our superintendent of schools had different aspirations when he attended college where he acquired a degree in business management. While visiting a small town, he was placed in the position of high school principal by the board of education. Among other things, he coached the girls' basketball team and dramatics. His education was then furthered at Columbia University where he received his Master's, and his Doctor of Education degree. Dr. Kincaid firmly believes in the functional side of education-making a living, living with one's self, and living with others. His daily life exemplifies his philosophy. One can readily understand why he finds it necessary to have his own hideaway in Cutchogue, where he relaxes and indulges in his favorite pastimes-fishing, golf, and a good game of bridge.

BEDDOW Principal OST students have the idea that the principal of a school is cold, austere and forbidding. By spending some time getting acquainted with the top man on the Hempstead totem pole and listening to his ideas on raising Hempstead's al- ready high standards, one discovers that such is not the case. The distinguished man in the picture, our principal, is a package of dynamic energy bursting with infinite ideas for the welfare of each student. Mr. Beddow would like all the Hempsteadites to know thai' they are under the guidance of an understanding, warm-hearted faculty. He feels fortunaie that our school has such fine students for whom the gift of cooperation is a natural. Our hard-working principal is looking forward to the day when our s:hool will no longer be bursting with an over-abundant population. He wishes to have more time given to each class, more elbow room while passing in the halls, and more space in the cafeteria. Expanding our buzzing activities is another of his ideas. Our enthusiastic response to the G. O. makes him proud. For a personal touch, Mr. Beddow'5 hobbies are reading and trout fishing. We can share his desire for a beautiful, spring schoolday, when under a large spreading oak tree beside a lovely lake with hook and line in hand he patiently awaits a bite. th , g ht 1 5. ' t f ALFRED P. WINDT Assistant to the Principal HE three people who hold immensely important positions in the running of our school are the Administrators. Mr. Windt, who is Assistant to the Principal, is, among other things, in charge of discipline and attendance. He has always been intent on teaching math, but if one brings up the subiect of math, he will produce his 'familiar smile and say, I prefer my iob as Assistant to the Principal. The Guidance Counselor, Mr. Pill, helps students to decide what college or insti- tution of higher learning they are suited for after leaving their Alma Mater. His iob is of great importance, as many students go to him for advice. Mr. Moore may tell you his main job is that of Curriculum Co-ordinator, but he will be sure to say his offshoot is that of head of Audio-Visual Aids. As co-ordi- nator, Mr. Moore integrates the work of the elementary schools with that of the high school. FRANK PILL, JR. Director of Guidance E.

In your yearly interview you discuss with your counselor what problems you may have in deciding upon your future vocation, or what problems you may have in choosing the college you wish to attend. For those students who do not wish to further their education after receiving their diploma, our Guidance de- partment gives assistance in iob placement. Mr. Pill and visiting educator lend friendly advice. Librarians TUDENTS here at Hempstead are exceptionally lucky to have access to two school libraries which contain all sorts of printed matter to keep up with our assignments and to satisfy our curiosity. An extra vote ot appreciation goes to the librarians who untiringly devote themselves to keeping our libraries orderly and up to date so that stu- dents will tind it a pleasant task to search for their needed bits of information or for an interesting book for their next book report. lb X ,, M 1 ZW. , , fywbvf K ,, 4 IU 'fan' V! ,qi , -.V 'WI 51 I, A , yfly fy I, yy , f 0' ' ' , ,4f: . . mf lee fpfiw sf me sys 2 W j l , f up - ff si f W' .'3 hw , 'tiff- if M 7, 7 W W' r we W , ,A '.,., ' ffl 2' ' ' Left to right, Row I May Duryea, Jane Merrick, Ethel Pashley, Eunice Ronnermann Marlene Schumm, Row ll: Rose Schwedler, Jeanette Siegmann, Joanne Silvestrone Evelyn Wolf.

Under their care are such matters as typing notices and letters, typing and tiling accurate accounts of records, adiusting and planning schedules and taking telephone messages. These people are ever ready to give infor- mation and to assist in scheduling appointments for meetings with the guidance counselors.

English EOPLE often judge a new acquaint- ance not only by his polish or polite- ness but also by his manner of speaking, that is, by his use of the English language. This is frequently the case when applying for a position, whether it be as a secre- tary, newspaper reporter, or assembly-line operator. Therefore the study of the Eng- lish language lnot the crazy-mixed-up slanguagel can be a great aid to us, lt is interesting to see how the language changes as in the case of the word ain't which now appears in the dictionary. lt may be surprising to note in time to come, what other new verboten words will be included in it. Literature also plays an important part in our daily life, for, through reading we become acquainted with people, ideas, and philosophy. Under the tutelage of our English staff, headed by Miss Barth, we are increasing our word power and our ability to express ideas clearly as well as becoming ac- qainted with the lasting works of literature.

During his stay at Hemp- stead, the student is exposed to the full gamni of history from ancient to modern times. ln order to broaden his understanding, the student makes special reports and engages in panel discussions in classes which are informa- tive, stimulating, and informal, The study of history is the study of cycles and recorded events of what notions and men have done. Thus a student is made aware of his debt to society for the wealth of his heritage and cul- ture which better prepare him for the role ot an informed and responsible citizen. -43,44 My JIQSQQA, V 'mek , ' 'wffffgf f 1.

X S the study of languages iust dull memoriza- tion of verbs cmd gender? Our language de- partment here at Hempstead would heartily disagree. Aside from offering the French, Latin, Spanish and German languages, it provides an interesting and stimulating study of the culture and literature of the country in which the par- ticular language is spoken. Along with the mastering ofthe pronunciation, students are taught native songs which further their linguistic skill and attord an interesting diver- sion from the regular routine of class work. The study of a language also creates a desire in the student to visit the country in which that lan- guage is spoken and thus he learns first hand about its people and customs. In this way, people of ditterent nations have been drawn together and better understanding is the result. Left to right, Row I: Celine Young, Sonia Dorwm Gertrude Gunther.

'Q .1 pi Mathematics EMPSTEAD HIGH offers a diversified selection of math courses. For the student who desires a course in elementary mathematics, elementary algebra is avail- able to the freshman and sophomore while plane geometry is offered to sophomores, iuniors and seniors. Also available are a number of courses in advanced mathemat- ics. They are intermediate algebra, trigo- nometry, solid geometry, and advanced algebra. Each of these is a half year course. They are available only to upper classmen who demonstrate a sound com- prehension of elementary math and the ability to pursue more complex mathemati- cal problems. Math is one of the greatest stimuli for the mind. lt arouses one's intellectual fac- ulties and leads to just and scientific con- clusions through given facts. By preparing the student for higher and more complex mathematics, our math de- partment is contributing to man's progress.

H. S. The s ents who comprise our Business Edu- cati department, whose leadership is in the 'ci e hands of Mr. Davidson, are busily studying a variety of subiects including introduction to business, business arithmetic, business law, short- hand, typing and bookkeeping, to prepare themselves for a place in the world of business. Our Business Education department, which now boasts second in size to that of only one other school in the county, had a very modest beginning back in l9l3 with a staft of only two teachers. Over the years, with the addition of new subiects and more pupils, our stat? has grown to thirteen teachers. At the present time this department represents about one-third of the total enrollment of the high school. Science CIENCE probes all phases of lite-past, pres- ent and future. To help us understand the miraculous web of scientific discoveries, Hemp- stead High School ofters courses in general science, biology, chemistry, physics and earth science. Under the direction of Mr. Faust, our science faculty helps us to delve into the stranger than fiction realities that have boomed out of tathomless dreams. Our teachers find in their science classes future doctors, medical technicians, engineers and a variety of scientific individuals to carry on the work of past genera- tions.

This is the case in our art department where the students' interest in their work is very high.

Today, the industrial arts department offers twenty-seven different courses in- volving the study of the materials, tools, processes, iobs, and the human problems of industry. The pupils are given unlimited scope for creative thinking, designing, and the development of original ideas, and many of them plan to follow a career re- lated to their particular field of study.

Health and Physical Fitness Mrs. Marsden gels the measurements. NE division of the Physical Education department is the nurse's ofhce. Here every student gets an annual medical ex- amination. The nurse's oftice also takes care of all first aid in the school and such minor maladies as headaches and stomach aches. Another division of the Physical Educa- tion department are the boys' and girls' gymnasium. The girls' gym is usually buzz- ing with activities. About the middle of the school year, preparation begins in the girls' gym for Greek Games. A popular activity with the girls, it is modeled after the games of the ancient Greeks. The boys play basketball, baseball, and football in the appropriate seasons. The boys are encouraged to try out for the school teams. The healthful aspect of physical edu- cation is very important, for a growing body needs exercise. Aside from the healthful points, it is necessary because it promotes a sense of fair play and team- work among the students. lt acquaints them with the disappointment of losing, the ioy of winning and the acceptance of both with poise and dignity.

HENEVER a problem arises that requires the attention of the Board of Education, we can be sure that its members are immediately busy at work, giving all their time and effort to serve the community with a fair and iust de- cision. Their work is aided greatly by the serv- ices of the superintendent of schools. The board comprises five members, each of whom is chosen for a term of five years by the taxpayers of the Village of Hempstead. One new member is elected each year. Their meet- ings are held regularly once a month in the superintendent's office, and special meetings are called whenever the necessity arises. Each year the members of the board are en- trusted with the expenditure of thousands of dollars which are used wisely in order to benefit the schools of this community. The board also decides the policies by which all the schools under its iurisdiction shall be run, and it is the final governing power of our school system. Our sincere thanks go to the board for its devotion to the cause of education. If l KW fn MfZ7yQ2i,. ,wJffL,f,,97 ZH if ,, A r X X 12945 . .,.'

Junior Class UR iunior year started with high hopes for all that it would bring to us. Now as it draws to a close, let us look back and touch upon some things in connection with our class, advisors, officers, and activities-things, some- times nothing more than impressions that we would like to remember. 1 One of our first impressions was the shock of seeing upper class printed on our registration cards. That one word made many of us realize 24 l ,aff President, 'rp . , Q ' A. ff J that we were no longer sophomores-we hC1d arrived. Of course the feeling of newness wore off as we got back into the swing of school life and elected junior reps. They proposed 0 slate of officers that we voted on. We all know by now that Joseph Chicco was elected president. Joe is known not only because of his impressive sounding title, he was secretary of our class when we were freshmen, played varsity football for the last two years, and be- longed to the honor club last year. Vice-President Carmelita Catalano, held the same office in our freshman class. Carmel is very active in school affairs. She belongs to the Modern Dance club, and among other things, is captain of the junior varsity cheerleaders.

' ' , After our cficcrs werdivelected, we settled down to our school work, and as the year pro- gressed we realized the importance of ou,r ad- visors-Miss Taft, Mr. Zara, Miss Dor-win,'an'd Miss Abbott. We became aware of how they helped our officer: and reps with the gollectfon of iunior dues, the selection of class rings, and preparation for our Junior Prom. With their guid- ance we managed to straighten out any prob- lcms thai came along. A The Junior Prom! That was our big event of the year. lt added a tinal touch to a year filled with not only enioymcnt but tough decisions, too. This school year is iust about through. We've gone over things that happened during this past year and now we should look forward. We have passed our point of no return, and the best year is yet to come. - ' 'H 142-.QQ al .- Il '7Ns. H A' ADVISORS Left to right. Mrs. Greenlund, Miss lgnelzi, Miss Tripp, Mr. Chose. Sophomore Class HEN the present sophomores returned to school after the summer vacation, there were many challenging problems awaiting them. The first of these was met in their English classes where they chose their sophomore representa- tives, who in turn chose the candidates for the class officers. On the fourteenth of November, after a careful consideration of the list of candi- dates, each student voted for the person he thought could most capably fill the duties of the office. Popular Tony Governanti, who was elected president, is a graduate of the Goodrich Street School in Uniondale. Although he has not yet decided upon the career he would like to follow, he is planning to attend college. When he was not playing football or basketball this year, one might have found him tinkering with cars. Tony has also been a sophomore representative and a homeroom alternate. Voted into the office of vice-president was Arthur Mitchell who also hopes to go to college. A graduate of the Smith Street School in Union- dale, his main interests lie in the field of sports. He has been a sophomore representative, as well as a member of the football and track teams. The class chose versatile Donald Kornrumpf to Tony Governanti President 4.-in-1 lf ' 11? , i? fi?-E-3551222 I 1311062 it take charge of its finances. Don, who was also graduated from the Goodrich Street School, is headed for college. His many interests range from sports lespecially footballl to tropical fish. A star on the gridiron, he started this year as captain of the iunior varsity team, but was pro- moted in mid-season to the varsity squad. The previous year he was captain of the freshman team. An honor student, he was class secretary as a freshman. He has gone out for the basket- ball team for two years and was a homeroom rep this year. Arthur Mitchell Vice-President Sally Dunmore, the class secretary, was the only girl elected. She comes from the California Avenue School. Planning on a career in either art or science, she hopes to go to either Penn State or Cornell University. Among her varied interests are reading, drawing, playing the piano, and dogs. She is a member of the French Club, has participated in the band show and is president of the Sketch Club. The sophomores met their guidance coun- selors, Miss MacDougall, who is in charge of all academic students, and Mr. Turnbull, the coun- selor for those taking the commercial or general course. When they went for their sophomore appointments, they were tactfully put at ease and asked how they were getting along in school and what their plans for the future were. When they left the office, they felt they had just made a true friend in the administration. The sophomore party, on November l5, pro' vided an excellent opportunity for the students to meet and become acquainted with those boys and girls not in their classes. Meeting in the boys' gym at the end of the eighth period, they joined in an afternoon of singing, dancing, and entertainment, topped oFf with refreshments. The singing, led by Miss lgnelzi, consisted of all the Sally Dunmore Secretary Donald Kornrumpf Treasurer ru., f' 1 'l' old favorites plus some new ones. Once again Mr. Franz called the square dances. Several of the sophomore girls showed their talent in danc- ing as they charlestoned, pirouetted, or tapped out their repertoire. When the time came for the refreshments, everyone ate his ice cream carc- fully to avoid biting into the ring that would proclaim him king or queen ot the party. The winners, Carolyn Crouch and Bill Ausman, were crownod by Mrs. Greenlund, chafrman of the class advisors. Mrs. Greenlund and her assistants. Miss lg- nelzi, Miss Tripp, and Mr. Chase, planned the party and helpecl to conduct the class elections. ln the past they have also helped to put on the traditional sophomore play. Everyone was sorry to hear that there would not be a play presented by the Sophomore Dra- matic Workshop this year. The annual perform- ance had come to be considered a school tra- dition, attended by members of all the classes. We are all hopefully looking forward to next year and the return of the sophomore play. The sophomore reps collectecl the dues and turned them over to the treasurer, Donald Korn- rumpf. The money was used for the party, the awards to the top students, and the Colonial pictures. As the year comes to an end, you, the sopho- mores, can look back on the fun and 'friendships and look ahead to the new experiences to come. You have begun to show the qualities of leader- ship which will make you the leaders ot to- morrow. mt mv fam sawn was 4134413 hmmm Q' kwa? NE ESE mit 8' ' A Freshman , Class ADVISORS Left to right, Row lf Miss Farrior, Mr. Helbach. Miss Joyce. xx HE Younger Generation, a name bestowed upon us by our parents, is exactly how the high school freshmen stand in the eyes of the upperclassmen. However, as iuvenile as they appear to us, it must be admitted that they are the building blocks of our high school, and what would high school be like without a fresh- man class? .lust as a building cannot stand with- out its foundation blocks, a high school is not complete without its potential upperclassmen. Eventually they will be the ones who will form the roof of the building. Senior-Frosh Day served as an initiation to Hempstead High School for the freshmen girls. At the final afternoon celebration a gala time was enioyed by all, thus putting an end to a rather hectic day. Great pleasure is given the freshmen when they elect their officers, who will lead the class throughout its first phase of a new adventure- the start of their high school career. Don Zahn was chosen as class president, with Lynn Puer- schner as the vice-president. Holding the office of secretary was Eugene Daly, with Evelyn Guisto in charge of the class funds. These students, be- sides adiusting themselves to a new and dif- ferent type of school, were confronted with the very difficult task of guiding their classmates through the hardest year of high school. However, knowing that the confidence of the entire freshman class was placed upon them, they all tried their best and succeeded in giving the freshmen a year they will never forget. Don Zahn, a graduate of Fulton School, plans to enter into a military career. Gym is the thing Don likes best about Hempstead High, as his hobby is participating in all school sports. Lynn Puerschner finds French and English classes the most interesting of the day. Lynn came from Franklin School, and is a member of the high school orchestra, besides being a Student Council senator. Secretary, Eugene Daly, hopes to be a professional basketball player. When Eugene first came here, from Fulton School, he was greatly impressed by our large gym. His interests lie in any type of sports and his favorite hobby-drawing. From St. Mary's School in Brooklyn comes our treasurer, Evelyn Guisto, whose hobby is roller skating. With an ambition to become a secretary, her favorite subject is English. ln future years these able officers will be sought as the leaders of their school. Good luck to them in all their undertakings! As the freshmen are indeed busy adjusting themselves to the routine of high school, they do not have much time for activities. However, the entire class eagerly looks forward to the annual Freshman Frolic in the spring, which is the customary class party. An afternoon of fun is enioyed by all. While Senior-Frosh Day is held for the girls, the boys have various sports they can participate in. Among them are freshman football and freshman basketball. The student body is always proud to have its newest class represent the 94 -l Evelyn Giusto Treasurer A115 li' Eugene Daly Secretary school by competing against other schools in these sports. Great credit is given the team members, when a victory is won. These boys are the ones who make up our varsity teams, leading our school on to new victories. The freshmen girls' glee clubs represented the entire class in their presen- tation of singing at the annual Greek Games. The advisors of the freshman class are Miss Farrior, Miss Joyce, and Mr. Helbach, under whose guidance the fresh- man class always prospers because of the wonderful counsel given by them. It is the guidance and inspiration given by these advisors which make the adjustment to high school considerably easier. The freshman class annually awards a scholarship to each of two students who achieve the highest scholastic average at the end of the school year. This is a goal which all the freshmen try to attain, and it is an exceptional honor for those who reach it. As the year draws to an end the freshmen, although glad not to be the youngest anymore, are proud to have crossed successfully the bridge leading them onward to the peak of their high school career. lt was a year, long to be remem- bered, despite its difficult times. The happy pleasures were greatly enioyed by every member of the freshman class, and the memories of this first year will everlastingly remain in the minds of these students. With the inspiration of the upperclassmen behind them the freshmen are now prepared to tackle the coming years with increased zeal. We shall be looking for their tributes to our school as they climb higher towards the summit. ....A.,.m,., I H 11 I M I , ,. ,.,. ., , , I ,A lv - -M , ,, '- f-,g,..,,.,..'. ......-.. W.

Senior Executive Council HE Senior Executive Council, one of the most important organizations in our school, is to the seniors what the Student Council is to the general student body. Here, at their monthly meetings, the senior class representatives, one from each senior social studies class, meet to discuss the problems of their class. The council is in charge of all activities concerning the senior class. The first matter brought to the council's atten- tion was the choosing of the Class' colors, motto, and fiower. The representatives brought sugges- tions from their classmates. These were voted on and three of each chosen. These nine sugges- tions were taken back to their classes where a final vote was taken. The colors, very popular ones this year lespecially with the boysl, are charcoal gray and pink. The motto, a very ap- propriate one, is, ln ourselves our future lies. The white tea rose is the class flower. Another very important matter which had to be decided upon was the Senior Ball. An Ori- ental theme was chosen this year- Land of the Lotus. Jim Tsighis, council president, chose the committee heads who in turn chose their committees from among the volunteers. The class of T954 left a sum of money to the council for the enlargement of the senior section in the Colonial. The results, as can be seen, are very pleasing. The council supervised such old traditions as Senior-Frosh Day, Old Clothes Day, and Dress- Up Day. The council also succeeded in getting the seniors together for the first senior assembly in many years. For those who do not already know, Old Clothes Day and Dress-Up Day are usually on the last Thursday and Friday of School and are exactly what their names suggest. The officers of the senior class, James Tsighis, president, Lynn Gilbert, vice-president, Ellen Mc- Iver, secretary, and Morgan Whitney, treasurer, serve in these same positions on the council. The advisor, Mr. Lints, guided the group in the suc- cessful completion of their duties. The Senior Executive Council members dis- charged their duties extremely well this year. They have shown great talent for organization and a fine sense of responsibility. HE Student Council is for the students, by the students and made up of students elected by you, the voters. All your problems are brought up here, hashed over and a solution usually results. But the council doesn't just sit with somber face solving your gt, problems, it has its lighter side. A G. O. show written, produced 7 and performed by the students is one aspect of the council's lighter side. Besides being entertaining, it gives the students a chance to show what they can do under their own steam. The council also sponsors the visits of foreign students and acts as their hosts, this is educational as well as fun. ln addition to this it works closely with Mr. Windt, puts on the all-important pep rally and last, but not least, engineers the election-eve dance at which event officers and candidates get up on their little soapboxes to sway the elec- d torate. The Council was instrumental in procuring voting machines S t u e for school elections. It has been at work on a new constitution which will be the basis of all meetings to come. . An aid to our school government is the Booster Club. These people C 0 u n C I I do a great deal to raise school spirit and get students to go, go, go. They handle posters, announcements, anything to boost school spirit. There is a brand new section of student government this year named the Student Activities Assembly. ln this club, representatives from any extracurricular activity of the school come and talk over problems of their clubs. Here they find answers and make sugges- tions. One of our school's most outstanding leaders, Emily Moore, participated in the organization of the assembly, and served as their leader through the year. The expert hands guiding the Student Council are as you know Miss Newlon and Mr. Beckett. The members love them because they allow them to run the Council as they wish, supervising only to make Left to right, Kneeling. G. Romeo, A. Vroman, P. Cobble, S. Wood, A. Gruber. Row ll: E.

Colonial HE nineteen fifty-five Colonial has come off in the hands of all lwe hopel. As the their masterpiece the press and is now Hempstead High students members of the staff see being filled with autographs, each has a feeling of satisfaction because it appears that all the work put into it has made it a success. In order to produce an annual such as this, the Business, Editorial, and Art staffs all worked in close harmony with one another. Amidst the general furor and confusion which engulfed room 23 every afternoon, editors Christine Eriksen, Lois Fennelly, Thomas Niblette, Margaret Whitney, Margaret Young and Su- zanne Perkins, could be found madly checking articles and captions, and occasionally tearing their hair out because some lazy writer didn't get his article in on time. Business staff editors, Eleanor Finkenstadt, Mona Klein, Betty Piltch, and Carol Gustavson could also be found in 23 going over the money situation. No group can function without a head and this iob fell to Connie Viscosi, as Editor-in-Chief. i Connie Viscosi, Eclitorrin-Chief Connie has certainly put her heart and soul into this yearbook and deserves a good deal of credit for making it the success that it is. A publication is not complete without illustra- tions of all sorts. This year's Art staff, composed of seven girls, has put many hours and a good deal of effort into producing the charming art work which adorns our book. The staff, headed by editor Gail Barton, deserves to be commended for the wonderful iob it has done in illustrating the theme for this year. It's true that in order to have the Colonial all the aforementioned tasks have to be com- pleted, but we haven't as yet found a publisher who will print the book free of charge. This naturally means that we need people to go out ,Sl iq, BUSINESS STAFF Left to right, Row I: A. Oslroslry, A. O'Connell, J. Britto, 3. PilfCh, E. Finkenstcdt, C. Gustavson, J. De Luca, F.

J Olga Santos Editor-in-Chief Patriot F you could look back about thirty-seven years into the past of Hempstead High School, you might be able to see the first edition of the Patriot coming off the press. It was shortly before that exciting first issue that the students decided they needed a newspaper to keep them in- formed on the goings on in the school. Since then, the Patriot has become a tradition and a vital part of the school program. One can always tell when the Patriot has been released by peering into any classroom in STAFF the school. All that can be seen are interested faces buried in their Patriots. Entirely a student publication, the Patriot provides entertainment for student and teacher alike. Whether you like to read editorials, sports, gossip, or look at pictures and cartoons, you are sure to find some- thing to fit your mind, mood, and manner. One of the favorite sections of the Patriot is the sports section. Tiger Tales, the sports column of the Patriot, is one of the most popular columns. Written by Larry Spiro, it contains the previous weeks' scores and highlights, coming schedules and predictions of the big games. xjfxguic xfyyvf Wrw P351 QDBA 11132-as .Q-14.6. 75.264 215-Ulefyf izlxubvvdrpz -5 21 U:4V'Z:xJ left to right, Row I.

Larry has his work cut out for him considering how many sports are enioyed here at Hempstead High. There are approximately ten to twelve sports and keeping the students informed is quite a task, one accomplished very admirably by Larry. Another column of great interest to the stu- dents is lntroducing, a column designed to bring about better student relationship. ln every edition of the Patriot two seniors are introduced to the students via a picture and writeup. One teacher is also introduced in this same way. The lnquiring Reporter is another. This column is based upon questions which are of most interest to the students. Students are asked these ques' tions and approximately ten to Hfteen answers are printed in each edition, some factual and some humorous. Under a new title, last year's Exchanged is this year's So What. This may be called the comedy column of the Patriot as Dick Keats vividly stretches his imagination to bring some humor to the students. All out of this world students never miss this column. News of coming concerts, symphonies our orchestra are rehears- ing, and almost anything to do with music can be found in Joan Schwitz's column known as the Bandbox. Joan does a fine iob in keeping the students posted on the happenings at the far end of the school. Because of criticism, File l3, the Patriot's gossip column has been changed this year.

These three students have quite a iob on their hands, a iob which is performed very commendably. The business end of the newspaper is handled by Paul Rogers, the busi- ness editor. In addition to the many Patriot writers, Eddie Pinkus handles headlines and art and photography work come from Lynn Gilbert and Jim Brady respectively. Pat Savarese, circu- lation manager, sees to it that the Patriots are distributed. Hats off to the Patriot staff for an excellent iob this year. They all can be proud that they have had the privilege to work on a paper that has brought entertainment and information to the students of Hempstead High.

Acting as hostesses to anyone unfamiliar with the school, typing and generally keeping things straight are some other iobs these girls do and do well. The longest established squad of its kind in the school, it has, in the past, and will continue in the future to lend its services to any situation that may arise. There are twenty-one girls, sophomores, iuniors, and seniors, who devote one period a day, five days a week assisting the registrar in her many tasks. In addition, they are sometimes given late duty. Tomorrcw's secretary certainly gets a good picture of how an office operates. Working with other members, a commercial student gains efficiency and finds that sometimes rough office work can be fun. A future college student learns practical methods of solving problems which may arise in her vocational life. This illustrates how, even though she is helping other people, a girl is also helping herself. As chief of this squad was Carol Braun, who kept a check cn any important matter that came up. To take over for Carol in any emergency, was the assistant chief Joan Trainor. Mrs. Hueston, head of this squad, has helped her girls to develop a strong sense of responsibility by entrusting to their care serious and important matters. 108 rf 'J fx 1 - yfffjl' L S W . . 1 J fiirxypl ,.i J Junior Secretaries .

This includes typing absentee and excused lists, greeting parents, filing, making telephone calls, and delivering office slips to classes. This year office Ill became the 4-41 central office for all notices to be taken to classrooms. Chosen largely from impressions made while in the office and by recommendation of teachers, the girls are selected on the basis of E experience. personality and general eficiency. They serve one period daily and two weeks late duty a year. Serving as chief of this year's squad is Beth Holmes. ln roles of comparable importance are.

IO9 Audio-Visual Squad NE of the most important groups in our school is the Audios Visual Squad which is composed of about twenty-eight boys. The boys on the squad operate and service the machines which are requested by the teachers for use in their classes and clubs. The squad is under the supervision of our curriculum coordinator, Mr. Moore, who is assisted by Mr. Lind. The chief of the squad is William O'Shea, the assistant is Mike Finkelstein, and the secretary- treasurer is Thomas Samson. The boys on the Audio-Visual Squad are chosen on the basis of their work in machine operations classes and the experience they have had in this type of work in grade school. The members of the squad are regularly tested on their ability to operate the equipment. The Audio-Visual Squad not only supplies our high school with films and other teaching aids but also sends movies to the other schools in the Hempstead district. lt is also through the Audio-Visual Squad that we are able to obtain slides and films from the Museum of Art and other institutions. Everyone knows that the students who work in the Audio-Visual Squad deserve a vote of thanks. left to right, Row I1 Mr. Moore, D. Schiller, P. Mannino, H. Grock, B. Schumacher, R. Kearney, D.

Under the supervision of Miss MacDougall, these girls perform important jobs and assist in many ways. In their sopho- more year these girls are interviewed by Miss MacDougall who chooses them partly on the basis of this interview. The members of the squad report that it is wonderful work and that they have learned to type and file under highly enjoyable con- ditions. Typing, filing, distributing slips and running errands are a few of the various chores performed during the day. Another iob given to the girls of the Counselors' Service Squad is that of making appointments for interviews with the counselors in office four. Two weeks of late duty cr year are required of each girl. The work that is done in office four is excellent and the girls on the Counselors' Service Squad do a wonderful iob. The practice which these girls get will help those who plan to enter the business world after graduation. It also helps to bring out the girl's person- ality and stimulates her ambitions while performing a service. Left to right, Row If J. Schauder, H. Duryea, I. Bulleyment, J. Leonard, C, Grossman, E.

Library Stall UT of the English classes each year, there is chosen a select group of students who have a pleasant personality, a pleasing disposition, and a willingness to work hard. This group then com- prises our present Library Staff of about thirty-six students who have various duties to perform including checking out books, taking around library notices, and taking inventory at the end of each semester. The genius of this smoothly-operating library is Miss Gertrude Rhodes. With the assistance of her staff and Mrs. Cullen and Mrs. Anderson, she is able to insure the efficient running of our school library and to make it a valuable source of information to our students. Books, magazines, and other educational literature can be found within the walls of our two school libraries. A iunior or senior gathering information or reading a book can always be found in the Senior library whereas the freshmen and sophomores obtain any information they may need from the Main library. Whether you are an upper or a lower classman you can always be :ure of having a cooperative and well-organized stat? to assfst you in our libraries. After all what could be a better excuse to get out of getting to study hall than the library!

Hall Patrol U AVE you got a pass? is the 'familiar question that is asked of you by the members of the Hall Patrol as you walk through the halls during periods. The many members of the Hall Patrol can be seen on duty during periods one through eight. This fine group, which has been serving our school for many years, is under the direction of Mr. Fish. These students, chosen from the study halls, together with two teachers are on duty each period to keep law and order. During lunch periods there is a campus patrol whose iob it is to take core ofthe front and rear ofthe building to make sure that no one leaves or enters without proper authority. Since there aren't as many study halls as in the past, the Hall Patrol has been cut down. Each floor elects its own lieutenant who collects dues of twenty-five cents and who is responsible for checking attendance. As we all know, these boys have a tremendous and important iob. The Hall Patrol is our means of obtaining law and order and it is doing a very fine iob. ll5 I i: 1 J S Zi l ,7 WY iff: a l c .1 v 4' ' , - I rhflv wr Q- L V 'itd tar Secretarial Hostesses NDER the enthusiastic supervision of Mr. Fish, the musical- minded meet to listen to the classics.

The purpose of the club is social as well as educa- tional. To start oft, a get-acquainted party was held in October which featured games, contests and prizes. At Christmas time the club sent favors and place mats which the members had made to veterans' hospitals. Knitting needles started clicking when the girls began to work on an afghan for the children's ward in a hospital. To crown the year's activities a the- atre party was held in New York. Frances Truicko was president, Joy Clemens, vice-president and Jean Hawkins, treasurer. To them is due praise for the smooth running of the club. ff Future Teachers of America EMPSTEAD HIGH can be proud of having the largest Future Teachers of America club in the country. So large is the club's membership that it is divided into three groups: the junior-senior group, known as Peter Cooper, the sophomore group, known as Esther F1 Greenlund, and the freshman group, called Horace Mann. The club's enrollment has grown in the past Hve years from twenty- six to one hundred and sixty, making it one of the largest clubs in Hempstead High. Prior to this year, there were two F. T. A. clubs in our school. This year a new group, separating freshmen and sophomores, was If formed. lt was named the Esther P. Greenlund club in honor of the X F. T. A.'s advisor. At a formal ceremony the new group received its charter and the new members were pledged. To begin the year, the club held an Open House for all new students. Following soon after this was the Evening Open House for Geneseo State Teachers College, at which time a talk on college lite at Geneseo was presented. The F. T. A. members performed services to their school by being hostesses at school functions. This year they played this role at the Faculty Tea and school plays. They assisted the Hempstead Class- room Teachers Association in preparing for and setting up their country fair. At this fair F. T. A. had a booth of its own. The F. T. A. club is affiliated with the teachers professional or- ganization. With the club funds the members bought a brick in the N. E. A. building in Washington. PETER COOPER F. T. A.

There they observed the different grades at work and the various activities the children engage in. Students from Uniondale High School were guests of our Horace Mann F. T. A. club at a Christmas party. Their club is newly or- ganized and they came to see our group in action. A major project of the year was a booklet written by Betty Sachleben. lt contained written accounts of the year's activities to- gether with illustrations. This booklet will be sent to other F. T. A. clubs throughout the country. Another project in which all the members participated was the making of booklets for various im- portant activities of our school. The three made during this year were for Greek Games, the Dramatics Department, and the Festival of Music. The one on Greek Games was just started but the others have grown through the years. The three groups of the F. T. A. club held monthly meetings. At many of these meetings a speaker from the guidance department or faculty was present. The meetings were both interesting and educational. Arline Krajnik was elected president of the Peter Cooper Club. Heading the Esther P. Greenlund group was Barry Deixler, and leader of the Horace Mann group was Rhoda Bushell. H9 ESTHER GREENLUND F. T. A. Left to right, Row I: J. McDowell J. Leek, S. Slade, D. Deixler C. Edwards, H.

Homeroom Representatives NE of the more important student groups of Hempstead High School is the Homeroom Representatives. At the beginning of each new school year, two students are either elected by the class or selected by the teacher of that home- room for the oftice. One of these students be- comes the permanent representative who attencls all the meetings. The other becomes the alter- nate rep. whose iob it is to take over when the permanent rep. is absent. The selling of G. O. tickets is by lar the most important iob ot the homeroom rep. He tries to rouse the students' enthusiasm the best he can tor an interest in all ot the athletic events Hemp stead has to oFter. Each rep. tries to have one- hundred per cent sale of G. O. tickets in his homeroom. He also tries to acquaint the students of his homeroom with the General Organization so that they will have a better understanding of it. He does this by bringing up problems of the G. O. to get the students' viewpoints and dis- cussing iust what the G. O. is for. ln addition to this, he collects money for the Community Chest and the March of Dimes, and works closely with the Student Council. Distribution of the Patriot every two weeks is also his responsibility. Leading the representatives is the friendly and capable Mr. Tree, who is always ready to lend needed advice. As in the past, he has worked closely with these students to help them perform their many tasks. Under his fine direction, the group has helped, and we are certain will con- tinue to help, to bring about better Student government. Tupiar Club HE weekly meetings of the Tupiar Club under the capable guidance of Mr. Robert Pop Hayes dealt with the intricacies of higher mathe- matics. The first semester was given over to a review of trig, thus preparing the iuniors for the second semester, which was spent on college algebra. The club was composed of approximately fifty juniors and seniors taking intermediate algebra, trig, advanced algebra, or solid geometry and who were interested in furthering their knowl- edge of mathematics. By the middle of the year the casually interested had dropped out leaving Mr. Hayes with a group of students who were sincerely interested in the further study of math. The members elected Norman Levine to lead them, Frank Campbell to take over when Norm was absent, and Kathy Ripp to look after the yf .- JU' l . , at 'Ms ? ', Left to right, Row I G, Perry, l.

At one of the fall meetings Miss Eleanor Davin, a graduate of Hempstead High and a student at Hofstra College, gave a fascinating talk on iobs in mathematics at the International Business Ma- chines Company. At another meeting the mem- bers of the club were instructed in the use of the slide rule. They found this knowledge very help- ful to them in their studies. The year was cli- maxed by a trip to the Naval Ordinance Center at Sands Point, Long Island. Many of these students will go on with math and will probably become well-known in this field.

It held meetings on the first and third Tuesday of each month. The members of H. H. S.'s Stamp Club en- joyed many more interesting activities this year such as auctions, grab bags, and hot trading sessions. If a person had walked into one of the meetings of the Stamp Club, he might have thought that he had interrupted a junior version of the New York City Stock Exchange because ot all the trading, buying, and selling that took place during these sessions. The members of this club chose Bob Clarke to be their president, Alan Rubin to serve as their vice-president, Eugene Warasila as treas- urer and Neil Davidson as secretary. The faculty advisor ot the Stamp Club was Mr, Holtz. Sketch Club OU don't have to be a junior Rembrandt in order to join the Sketch Club. All you need is a love of art and the will to work at develop- ing that so-called artistic touch. As the Senior Ball approached, the club mem- bers readily took up their painting equipment to help with the decorations. This spring the sketchers visited the Museum of Modern Art, and spent an enioyable day in New York. Topping oft their eventful year, was a barbecue held for them at the home of their advisor, Mrs. Oman. Heading the slate of the upper classmen's club was president, Sue Horton, vice-president, Hilda Robfzrs, secretary, Lois Blanchard, and treasurer, Edythe Skillman. Leading the freshman-sophomore club was Sally Dunmore, president, Charles Hartley, vice- president, Mariorie Brown, secretary, and Judy Brown, treasurer. Pioneers O aim high is the standard which guides the Pioneer Club. This club is made up of fresh- man girls who receive an average of ninety or more for the first marking period. Under the direction of Miss Congiu, this year's group, con- sisting of nine girls, spent a most enioyable year. Heading the group was Pat Ferri as the club's president with Lynn Puerschner serving as vice- President. Holding the position of secretary was Carol Louis, while Virginia Sullivan was in charge of the club's funds. The Pioneer girls served as hostesses for the Freshman-Sophomore Open House. They again played the role of hostess when they ioined with the Pathfinders for the annual Christmas party. Other features of the year's activities was a boat ride to Bear Mountain and a trip to New York. These girls deserve credit for making the honor club in their first year of high school. Pathfrnders HE Pathfinders is Hempstead High's freshman boys honor club. Organized after the first marking period, it is made up of freshman boys who received ninety per cent in each of four major subiects. The boys must maintain this scholastic level throughout the year. December sixteenth was the date on which the Pathfinders got together with their scholastic cousins-the Pioneers, and had their Christmas party. There were games, refreshments and danc- ing. Everyonc had a good time. Other activities planned for the year included various trips such as, outings to the U. N., St. George Hotel, and Madison Square Garden. Arrangements were made for another party also. This time it was with the sophomore girls of the Pallas Club. Serving as president, vice-president and sec- retary-treasurer of this sixteen-member club were: Thomas Convery, James Edwards and Michael Lopez respectively. 417' , ' f Ns N N ski scam Left to right, Row I.

Under the direc- tion of Miss Imogene Boyle and her staff, this year's orchestra did much to uphold this repu- tation. A lot of hard work-the same hard work that went into the making of the reputation of the orchestra-was required to maintain this dis- tinction.

Ripp various music teachers, all played an equally important part in the orchestras preparations for the concerts. This year the orchestra gave two concerts at the Elks Club, one at Christmas time and one for Brotherhood Week. During Brotherhood Week it played Julia Ward Howe's stirring Civil War song, The Battle Hymn of the Republic, and Walt Whitman's I Hear America Singing, set to music and conducted by George Kleinsinger. Both of these works were performed with the choir. The orchestra gave another concert dur- ing March for some critics from the New York Times. The orchestrcfs really big moment, though, The cello section. The French horn section, The ViOlif1 S6Cli0I'l. was at the Spring Concert, the Festival of Arts. They were directed by many well-known con- ductors and composers. Elie Siegmeister con- ducted his Ozark Suite, a gay picture of mountaineer life. Morton Gould conducted his colorful Family Album, that told about the Gay Nineties. He also conducted Aaron Cope- land's story of the young outlaw Billy the Kid. Archie Bleyer was on hand to conduct the Battle Hymn ofthe Republic. After hearing the orchestra at the various con- certs, everyone agrees that the results make all the hard work really worth while. , 1 Lg JP 1 f N f Choir S singing gladdens every heart, the choir continues to bring the joy of music to vast and varied audiences. This year's annual spring concert was a production enlisting the cooperation of the dance, art and speech classes of this school. lt included the study of American music from the old Puritan songs of worship through patriotic songs of the Revolution up to New Orleans iazz and Broad- way hits, As an example of the kind of music played, there was a number entitled the Horseless Carriage Gallop. Listening to this compo- sition it was not difficult to imagine a cranky old Gay Nineties car chugging merrily down the road and then finally deciding to give up. Then-in the distance is heard the gallop of a horse. As it passes this thing that was supposed to outdo him, he gives a horselaugh and goes happily on his way. A few words about the choir. This year the membership included one hundred and thirty-seven boys and girls. ln 1931, when the first choir was formed, it had all of twenty-five girls. Quite a differ- Gnce! To Miss McQueen who has worked as director of choir we must attribute this tremendous growth. Another interesting fact is that the alto graduates of this year will be the last people to have known our old Bandbox of three years ago. Thus one can see that iust as the program showed the progress of music over the years, our own facilities for making music have progressed too.

Band HE beginning of school is synonymous with the start of a new football show. This year, using Toast to Football as a theme, the band spent many hours in staging a show in which, among the many intricate routines, a tiger roared, and a player kicked-oft. It was a show which brought people to see it time and time again, each time finding something new and drirerent. Besides playing for every home game, the band brought Santa Claus to Arnold Con- stable's in a blaze of glory, and also gave a spectacular performance at the Polo Grounds. As far as many people are concerned, after the Thanksgiving-Day game our band disbands. This is quite a misconception. They have not yet begun to fight! From a roaring and loud march- ing band they quickly turn to a melodic sym- phonic one. Along with the orchestra and choir, the band played an important role in the Fes- tival of the Arts program. At this event they played selections from Broadway hit musicals and ioining with the choir and all glee clubs in the Ode to America, brought the program to a dramatic close. Mr. Albinski deserves a great deal of credit for the wonderful iob he has done with this year's band. Both he and his musicians can be proud of all of their performances.

It was felt that both clubs benefited from this procedure. ln the late fall, the members of both clubs took a day off from school to visit the United Nations. The trip proved most interesting to all those who attended. Also on the agenda for this year was a meeting at which the two sophomore honor clubs entertained the two freshmen honor clubs. lt's hard to say who had the more fun, the hosts or the guests. The members decided to give a three dollar and a two dollar prize to the two sophomore boys who had the highest marks at the end of the year. Much credit for the successful year the club had is due to Mrs. Marshall and the officers of the club who were John Edwards, presi- dent, Paul looss, vice-president, David Sutton, secretary, and John Graves, treasurer. 130 V if ggi Pallas Club HE girls in the sophomore honor club represent some ofthe lead- ing citizens of tomorrow. The Pallas Club has three chief goals: leadership, scholarship, and fellowship. These girls are always within reach when help is required for a community or school project. Although the Pallas club didn't get started until quite late it soon picked up steam and continued at a good pace. Among the many things these girls engaged in was that of acting as hostesses both nights of the school's open-house. ln addition to that, they also sold programs at all of our home football games. With the money they earned they chartered a bus for a trip to the United Nations. The sophomore boys accompanied them on this trip. A highlight of the season was another trip to N. Y., this time to see Paiama Game. During the early part of the year their meetings consisted mainly of business matters. But near the end of the year speakers were heard and films seen. These meetings were arranged by Miss Gunnerson and Mrs. Martin, who took over during Miss Gunnerson's illness. The very able leaders of this honor club for the past year were: Mary Drewal, president, Margie Brown, vice-president, Jaan Holz- 'X if i man, treasurer, and Grace Felicetti, secretary.

The students who are in these classes begin school the first period and at 4 twelve o'clock they leave to go to their various iobs which the school has ,,,.'f found tor them. The first year students aren't required to work but they may if they wish. 2 The second year students must work. The students who' s part of their ? course get two credits instead of the usual one credit they are required ? to work on holidays.

Folk Dance Club U IRCLE to the left and back to the right can be heard every Friday afternoon in the girls' gym. The students who compose the Folk Dance Club come from study hall or lunch periods. There are thirty boys and thirty girls most of whom are sopho- mores. This club was first organized in l94l when Mr. Franz came to Hemp- stead. It is hoped that next year there will be sutllicient interest among the student body to have two folk dance clubs meeting after school. Members of the school club are invited to ioin Mr. Franz's evening classes. Circle, couple, and square dances are everyone's favorite. This year the club learned foreign dances from Germany, England, Belgium, Mexico, Lithuania, and Denmark besides many from America. Dances popular with everyone were the polka, schottische, and mazurka. An added feature this year was the learning of some lsraeli dances. Louise Edwards was the secretary ofthe club and Hempstead High's popu- lar Mr. Franz did the calling and instructing for the group. As Mr. Franz puts it, he has two aims for the Folk Dance Club. The first: to teach social skills through folk dances, and the second to promote social fellowship among boys and girls of Hempstead High. l33 .use 1 left to right, Row l- D. Kornrumpl, J.

Varsity Club HE members of this club can easily be recognized by their gray and blue jackets which they proudly wear. Even without these jackets these boys would probably be recognized by anyone who attends the various athletic events of the school since, in order to be a member of the club, a varsity H must have been earned in some sport. Due to a late organization of the club, there weren't too many meetings and no trips were scheduled. Still, the boys carried out one of their big proiecls-ushering and keeping order at school games. They also assisted in getting ads for the football programs. Mr. Schuessler, who took over the club this year, promises a fuller pro- gram next year with interesting trips planned. This year Henry Buthmann presided over the meetings with Larry Winston aiding him in his position as vice-president. Carl Stahl was secretary and Joseph Chicco was in charge of money matters. l34 Secretarial Service Squad ORKING in a mimeograph room is a very satisfying expe' rience. The knowledge that the aides are helping out with the daily run of the school encourages them in their work. Turning the manual machines is hard work, but it is also good experience for those girls who contemplate a career in a business office. The Secretarial Service Squad is under the direction of Mrs. Schryver. Supervising every period is a teacher from the commercial department who sees to the distribution of the work and the accom- plishment of the task. This work is mainly typing stencils, running the machines, and proofreading. Included in the regular work of a girl on the squad is the care and maintenance of the machines. There are about four girls in the mimeograph room each period working steadily and harmoniously every day to meet the demand of the mimeographed work needed by the classes in our school. To quote one of the girls, This room gives us an opportunity to get acquainted with the atmosphere of an office, with its click of 3- m -. -4 'a rn i '1 1. rn 3 10 Q 3 a. 5'- rn D 9. UU ru o 'N -.

Some people go even further and find enioyment in improving their picture-taking technique, along with printing and developing their pictures. The Camera Club welcomes such people and helps to further their knowledge in the field of photography. The seventeen active members this year are supervised by Mr. Smith. The members of the Camera Club meet twice a month and en- gage in quite a few activities. Few people know about the well- equipped darkroom that the members use in the basement of the school. The members who care to, go down once a week to use its facilities for printing and developing. Good use has been made of the two enlargers, the Speed Graphic Press type camera and the movie camera. Remember the movie that the Camera Club took of our school's activities called, Tiger Reels '? This year the club turned out another on the Civil Air Patrol, which should be interesting. The camera men took pictures of our football team and sold them at the Blue and White Corner. The club keeps its members busy by holding contests for the most original and best focused pictures. To complete the club's whirl of activities, one might add that several guest speakers were invited to speak on 35 millimeter photography, The officers, Ray Feldmen, president, John Checkett, veep, and Walter Schoeps, secretary-treasurer, all deserve credit for the fine iob they did in handling the club.

Composed of ten iunior and senior girls, this year's squad, headed by Sheila Berman as chief, has proved itself to be as efficient and alert as any of its predecessors. Chosen by Mr. Beddow and Mrs. Anderson for their personality, cordiality, general neatness ancl good scholastic standing, the girls were recommended by their teachers and the senior members of the squad. Of the many activities executed by these girls, operating the switchboard is the most demanding and fascinating of all. It not only requires a great amount of concentration which is a character- istic of each and every member of this staff, but is a full-time iob. The girls are also trained so that they are prepared to perform any of the ordinary tasks of a secretary. This year's agenda, set up at one of the monthly meetings, in- cluded among several other events the annual Christmas Party. The experience gained by the girls from the clerical work done during the period they serve daily, will prove to be a valuable asset to them in the years to come. 137 .ig-1 ooo : O- og O O OU ', ooooogo 'S 1 t 13 xx!!! !!X EE!-i5'l ,.,....-,-i- 6 O10 ,L- Left to right, Row I.

Pen And lnk Club EMBERSHIP in the Pen and lnk Club is limited to the iunior and senior girls who have earned nineties in four of their major subiects. Many of the leaders of these classes are found in this Club. Many grateful parents will remember the girls' help in guiding them through the school on Parent-Teacher Night in December. That month was a very busy one forthe club members. They filled baskets which they gave to the needy and held an all-around talent show together with the Pentagon boys at Christmas. Many interesting and entertaining trips were taken this year. Among these were excursions to the Newsday plant, radio station J f W. H. L. I., the play Midsummer's Night Dream in October, and , one to the United Nations during Regents week in January. ln order to raise money for the club the girls sold stationery. From this money a S75 scholarship is awarded each year to the girl who has demonstrated unusual leadership, scholarship and service to her school. Last year's winner was Marilyn Brooks. A great deal of credit is due to the advisors, Mrs. Stilger and Miss Abbott, and the officers of the club for making it such a suc- cessful one this year. The omcers were Betty Sachleben, president, Emily Moore, vice-president, Arline Krainik, secretary, and Ruth Carling, treasurer. 138 Pentagon F the many juniors and seniors in our school, the group con- sisting of seventy boys found in the Pentagon Club may well be thought of as the cream of the crop. For, in order to become a member of this club, one is required to have an average of ninety or above in each of his maior subjects. One of the main goals of the club, stated one of its members, is to try to broaden our knowledge and prepare for our future. Under the guidance of Mr. Fish, the boys took a step towards preparing for their future by reviewing for the state scholarship exams which many of them took. An excursion to the Cloisters and the Metropolitan Museum of Art this winter broadened their knowledge, while providing fun and entertainment to the members of the club. ln the field of awards, two gold pins were given at the end of this year, one to the senior with the highest average and the other to the boy who rendered the most service to the club. Larry Spiro headed the Pentagon Club as president, followed by vice-president, Richard Bannister, secretary, Dick Krim, and treasurer, Howard Mettler. Left to right, Row I: Mr. Fish, L. JanoH, T.

This year its offering was Harriet, a play based on the life of Harriet Beecher Stowe. By unanimous agreement, the large cast put on a very professional perform- ance. The officers of the club this year were Richard Morgan, president, Patricia Savarese, vice-presi- dent, Richard McCormack, treasurer, and Vir- ginia Brady, secretary. Much praise should be given to all the mem- bers of the club, those behind the scenes and those on stage, for such a fine performance this year. N . Left to right: E. Pinkus, M. Fox, M. Broderick, R.

Well do we all remember the last production of this group- the comedy Growing Pains. With Miss Kantzler working with John Menton, Wilma Macormack, Judy Kohsiek, David Niss- man, and a fine supporting cast, a marvelous production of the play was given. We all hope that there will be a return of this group very soon. Key Klickers ERE is a club for commercial upperclass girls. This year the older members were surprised at the popularity of their club which attracted many new members, and brought the total to forty-six in all. During the first meeting, this term, Miss Silver, who is the girls' advisor, stated that the purpose of the club is both social and educational. As they did last year, the members bought and wrapped a Christmas gift for each sick child at Meadowbrook Hospital. These presents were brought to the annual Christmas party. Speaking of the Christmas party, the girls planned for it far in advance, and really did themselves proud when the anticipated day arrived. Three trips were planned for the year. During the January Regents Week, the girls went to visit the United Nations Building in New York City. Most O, . : .v- . . o I 0 ... X it of them were delighted to be able to go. Later in the year the members enioyed a play in New York. Their last and highly enjoyable trip was the one to Bear Mountain. Seeing to it that the members carried out the original purpose of the club were its officers: Frances Saganich, Barbara Donley, Phyllis Mannino and Kay Werner whose roles were president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively.

W .xx l42 Office 5 Squad N speaking of various organizations we find that nearly all have a nick- name. This also holds true of the Office 5 Squad which is often referred to as the Right Arm of the Counselors. The Seventeen students comprising this staff have not undeservedly gained this reputation. This has been accomplished by executing the many trivial as well as important tasks that each is asked to do during the period she serves daily. However, they are not a no-play group. ln fact they are one of the more social-minded organizations in the school. This fall, at the suggestion of the chief, the squad held a tea for the faculty. Each of its members pitched in and decorated the four guidance rooms and served the guests as well. From the comments dropped around school, it is quite evident that all those who attended enjoyed themselves. Included on this year's social calendar was the annual Christmas party. Food, games, and grab bag prizes were plentiful. Needless to say, a good time was had by all. This year's squad was headed by Joan Markowski, chief, and Carolyn Coyle, assistant chief.

Junior Science Club HE Junior Science Club gives an opportunity to the more scientific-minded students to carry further their interests in science than can be done in class. Under Mr. Lawson's wing, the club carries on indoor and outdoor activities of interest. The varied activities included a discussion on micro- photography and attendance at the Long Island Science Congress, held at Adelphi in the spring. Also accomplished was an interesting exhibition of their work displayed in our school showcase. The young scientists expect to contribute some- thing that will benefit the Science Department in the future. The leaders ot the club were Daniel Mirro, president, Steve Negler, vice-president, Ralph Campanella, secretary, and Ray Feldman, treas' urer. Ronald McCarthy was the program chair- man. The members have, no doubt, had a very interesting year under Mr. Lawson's supervision. Senior Science Club F you were given the opportunity to assist in the construction of a model atomic pile, would you be interested? Just such an oppor- tunity was given to upper classmen who are members of the Senior Science Club. The club made a model atomic pile under the guidance of Mr. Faust. In addition to the interesting and educational project mentioned above, the pro- grams of this popular and active club included many interesting discussions and talks given by members who had the opportunity of visiting an exhibit that was of interest to the club. This year the members of the Senior Science Club chose Richard Keats as their president, Norman Levine as their vice-president, Pat Cab- ble as their secretary, and Peter Paine as their treasurer. If you are interested in science in all its phases and would like to share this interest with others, then the Senior Science Club is your dish. Left ro right, Row I. D. Mirro, H. Wood, S. Negler.

One of the larger groups at Hempstead High School, it has a representative-,, and an alternate from each homeroom. Besides these, other students who expresfi at a desire become workers. l' 1 . . . ' ff' The Junior Red Cross members accomplish many worthwhile deeds. They raisey money for the Red Cross Children's Fund, till Christmas stockings for veterans' hos- pitals, assist blood banks, and collect money for aid in time of disaster. Each year., , at Christmas time, the members distribute boxes which are tillerl with necessities for needy people in Europe and Asia. The members also attend County Council meetings four times a year in Mineola. Helping others so that they may help themselves might well be the motto of the Junior Red Cross. Under the direction of Mrs. Bowen and their president, Joan Facey, the Junior Red Cross is an activity of which Hempstead may be proud. 1 .., 1 .kr 1 1 N -. ,C .4 1 'K C, 'i-Pi cg, 'Li E. t- .4-,s. by ., .

Blue And White Corner O you need a mascot? Paper? A review book? If so, the place for you to go is the Blue and White Corner. Located at the foot of the main staircase, the Blue and White Corner stocks everything from loose-leaf paper to decals for your car window. The Blue and White Corner is a non-profit or- ganization run for the benefit of the students. lt is managed by the senior retailing students who are hand-picked by the advisor, Mr. David- son. The purpose of the Blue and White Corner is to give training and experience to those stu- dents who intend to go into the field of retailing after graduation. The manager of the Blue and White Corner is Arthur Zabiela, whose job it is to see that everything runs smoothly. The six students who work one period each day in the Blue and White Corner realize that the opportunity and experi- ence they are gaining will be invaluable to them in a few short years. l-4 Radio Club HE Radio Club is composed of students inter- ested in gaining knowledge in the ever- popular field of radio. Members have the oppor- tunity of gaining practical exprience in the making, repairing and maintenance of radio TCCGIVBTS. There were no officers elected this year due to the small membership caused by the split schedule. Meetings have been conducted by the more experienced students among whom Robert Martinez has been one of the most active. The goal set by the club was the preparation of its members for a Federal Communications Commission test which enables them to get their Novice Radio Operator's License. If they pass this test, they automatically receive the above- mentioned license and a call number. Although this license limits them to the time, frequency, and power by which they can send and receive, it is much sought after by the stu- dents. If they fail to earn their general ham' license in one year, they are put off the airwaves. left to right, Row lr Mr. Davidson, A. Graham. Row ll: J. McNamara, R. Roiecki, A. Zobiela, S.

This group is made up of six women and about twenty-eight boys who make it possible for us to eat quick and tasty lunches. Mr. Tobani, the manager of the Cafeteria, supervises the whole works and sees to it that everything runs ol? as quickly and emciently as possible. lt is the women's iob to prepare the food and serve it, while the boys' job is to clean up the Cafeteria and place the used dishes in the dishwasher. The Cafeteria Squad offers a variety of food weekly. They serve such meals as spaghetti, chow mein, beef stew, ravioli, and roast-beef dinners. They also have soup, sandwiches, fruit juice, milk, salads, puddings, cakes, and pies. The Cafeteria Squad helps give dinners such as the All-Sports dinner. They also plan and prepare picnics, serve refreshments for P. T. A. meetings, class teas and also for parties given by clubs and various other organizations.

During the year an opportunity to take nursing aptitude tests was ofTered the members. This was a genuine help to the members in preparing for their nursing entrance tests. This year the Pre-Nursing Club introduced something new, a class night for parents and members. A film on nursing was shown, and ct speaker from Columbia Presbyterian Hospital was present. Because of the tremendous success of the evening, it will become an annual event. As the proiect of the year, the club collected old nylon stock- ings which will be woven into cloth for the people of Korea. The club members went on tour through Bellevue Hospital and Mitchell Field Base Hospital, where they observed various phases of nursing. Another feature of the year's activities was a lecture on practical nursing. Elected presidents of the iunior-senior, sophomore, and freshman groups in that order were Virginia Brady, Audrey Perry, and Rose- Mary Sgroi. The following were the viceepresidentsz Carol Braun, Virginia Ball and Gail Kearney. Holding the office of secretary-treas- urer were Judith Koshiek, Lorraine Koor and Helen Lillie. These girls, with the cooperation of the members, contributed immeasurably to the success of the club. 148 Left to right, Raw I C. Schiller, B. Muns, E. Del Giorna, L. Ruggieri, E.

Guided by Mrs. Stilger, the club has participated in many inter- esting activities. One of these is the Spanish poetry contest sponsored by Hofstra College, in which Olga Santas wan a prize. Entertainment and education were combined in a trip ta the Hispanic Museum in New York. Here the club saw a Spanish movie and then went on to a delicious dinner of arroz can pallo lchicken and rice ta you nan-Spanish-speaking people.l The traditional pinata, filled with candy and presents, was broken at the club's yearly Christmas party, which altered a good time to all. This spring, the members af the club were off an another trip, this time to the Cloisters. Here besides seeing a Spanish movie and hav- ing dinner, they bought many interesting souvenirs. ln between their many trips, this busy club has managed to publish a newspaper lwritten in Spanish of coursell called El Aguila ar the Eagle, which was distributed to many of the school's Spanish classes. The aFFicers of the club, Emilio Del Giarna, president, Barbara Muns, vice president, Elaine McGuire, secretary, and Leonora Rug- gieri, treasurer, have all done a wonderful iab in making one of Hempstead's oldest clubs one of Hempstead's best. l49 'Jw Left to right, Row I S.

Latin Club LEA IACTA EST. lf you can translate this sentence, then the chances are that you were a member of one of the more popu- lar clubs in the school, the Latin Club. As in the past years, one of the most important money-raising proiects of the club was selling Christmas cards and wrapping paper. The proceeds from this sale go toward the one hundred dollar scholarship which the Latin Club awards annually to the student who has excelled in scholarship in Latin and service to the Latin Club. Several interesting and enjoyable trips to the theatre were planned by the club and its advisor, Miss Winter. Attending a performance of The Nutcracker Suite, a ballet, was the first of these events. Interesting programs were arranged for each meeting with some- thing pertaining to Latin playing an important role in them. At one Last year's winner was Dennis Towey. of the first meetings color slides with commentaries on Rome were shown. Modern games played in Latin illustrated that Latin is not a dead language. While enioying themselves, the members learned new Latin words and phrases the painless way. One of the highlights of the year's program was the annual Christmas party. After the entertainment and the refreshments, provided by the mothers of the members, Christmas carols were sung in Latin. Everyone enioyed a laugh when Jingle Bells was sung in Latin. This year the club consisted of about thirty members. The meetings were brought to order by Bob Palmer, first consul, Lance Lazo, second consul, Carol Cohen, scriba, and Zelda Greenspan, quaestor. l5O f ff ' X f ,K - W ' . , pry, f .ff V J ff f French Club HE meetings of Le Cercle Francais were greatly enioycd by all who attended them. The officers, Emily Moore, president, Ed Pinkus, vice-president, Pat Savarese, treasurer, and Betty Sachleben, secretary, got together to outline the plans for the programs. The resulting programs were very interesting to everyone. Mrs. Young, the club's advisor, oFtered helpful suggestions. After the meetings were called to order and the minutes read in French, various club members led the group in the singing of French songs. The members always looked forward to the entertainment at each ot the meetings. One time Mrs. Young showed slides that she took in France. At later meetings the members played French games and read a French play. At the close of each meeting a committee would bring out tne refreshments it had preparec and soon after the president would adiourn the meeting. The club's activities were not limited to the monthly meeting. Several times during the year, the members went to French movies and made several trips to New York. On one such trip they made Ct tour of a French liner, while on another day they saw a French play. Thus one sees that this has been an especially active year for the French Club, thanks to the Hne leadership and cooperative members. Left to rrght, Kneeling B. Scchleben, E. Moore, P. Savarese.

The omcers of the club which met the eighth period were Judy Kohsiek, president, Dave Nissman, vice-president, Gerry Den- ninger, secretary, and Henry Szabronski, treasurer. The ninth period club 2. . elected Paul Sorenson, Connie Roberts, Ruth Stotz, and Barbara Macauley 5- X Z i . as president, vice-president, treasurer, and secretary respectively. Q ' The clubs had several ioint meetings one of which was the Christmas party, which was held, as usual, after school in the girls' gym. The party, which ' was the big event of the year, had refreshments provided by members of X both clubs, skits, and folk dancing, which was led by Mr. Franz. T This year, as in the past, the club members welcomed Mr. Geisler, a well- known Hempstead citizen, when he came to show slides of his trips to Ger- 'nylfynv l l lx X 1 I 7 many. They were very fortunate to have him come several afternoons and tml X they greatly appreciated this. The first showing took place before the clubs split up. The officers and the advisors, Mr. Leusch and Miss Gunther, were veryxieased with the large attendance. B wrt ,W fir fo-ii I . jas, E. Schuster, M. Whitney, J. Kohsiek, B. Ullsch, E. Eisenbacher.

At one of the meetings a spelling bee was held with lollipops given to the winning team. One meeting was devoted to the singing of German songs and another one was spent playing German games. The ofzficers of the iunior division of the German club, consisting of German I and German ll students prepared the members for the advanced German Ill and IV group. This was done by singing of German songs, spelling bees, and vocabulary contests. The ofticers of the iunior division emphasize strict parliamentary procedure which is also a preparation for the advanced German club and future life. One of the big events for the year for the senior club was its trip to New York City where the group ate at a German restaurant and saw a German movie. The members returned home tired, but full of the good food and the memories of the movie. The members and ofticers of both German clubs sincerely hope that next year there can be dates set aside for regular meetings which all members will attend. FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE Left to right, Row I R.

Marching Band Entourage EAR that roar? The Tigers are at it again. With the colors of the fiag carried out in the color scheme of the twirlers' socks, the band show swings into action again. The familiar scene of the color guard carrying the flag, that we the students of Hempstead High respect, honor, and love, greets us first. A loud cheer is heard from the stands as the twirling ensemble moves simultaneously down the field to the South Rampart Street Parade March to meet the band in the center. As the show unfolds we find the Hi-Steppers, Maiorettes and Twirlerettes, forming a maiestic football, encircling the band which spells out Football and U. S. A., while the twirlers do a flag routine, which adds color to the show. Next we find the twirling ensemble forming a gigantic goal post as they twirl evenly and smoothly. Amid the excitement of the crowd, you can hear the loud roars of a tiger. Behind the Hi-Steppers, you can see the band in the formation of a tiger's head to carry out the theme of the song Hold That Tiger, while the Hi-Steppers in front twirl to Tiger Rag with speed and skill. To our amazement, we see not only one baton but two. This year the Hi-Steppers did double twirling with expert skill, a beautiful showing indeed. The captains of the Hi- Steppers were Betty Kerr and Carol Tucker. Then we find the Hi- Steppers forming a football, during which the Twirlerettes and Major- ettes form two small goal posts. Suddenly a powerful kick from the football hero sends the football gliding safely over the goal post, l6O TWIRLERS Left to right, Row l H. Fitzgerald, M. Ostrosky, A. Ostrosky, A.

Thus the show is brought to a dramatic end. Under the able supervision of Mrs. Barry, the advisor for the twirling ensemble, the show was a complete success. Mrs. Barry agrees with every- one that all the twirlers did a magnificent job. Another main attraction of the show were the Glockenspiels playing in perfect harmony. This year instead of the Tigerettes we had a new group known as the Twirlerettes. These girls who wear the uniforms which were worn last year by the well-known Tigerettes did a wonderful iob for their first year and deserve full credit. Their captains were Rose Guarnieri and Barbara Faust. The Maiorettes, who are the intermediate twirlers, and who did an exceptional iob, were captained by Judy Riker and Jean Leighton. The Hempstead Marching Band performed not only at school functions but at community ones as well. Among the first of these was the benefit show for the Y. M. C. A., which was held at the Meadowbrook Polo Field. lt was a great oc- casion for Hempstead. In spite of rain, the show went on with the band and twirlers doing their best. We were all honored by the New York Giants to be asked to participate in their open- ing football game at the Polo Grounds, where the performance which surpassed all expecta- tions was televised on the west coast.

Hempstead's leading stores, was another occa- sion for the presentation of the Hempstead Marching Band. This year there was a wonderful turnout and the weather was excellent. Because of the excellence of the Hempstead Marching Band we have received nation wide coverage from such leading magazines as Look, McCalls, and the Associated Press, Our band is well- known for the best on Long Island and all the students are proud of this fact. Each year we strive to make it a worthwhile activity so that the student body can be proud of it. Although the cheerleaders do not participate in the band show, they did a magnificent iob cheering our team on to victory. This was the first year that the iunior varsity cheerleaders combined with the varsity girls for the cheers. For every two cheers the varsity led, the iunior varsity led one. They also led some together which added pep to the crowd. This year the cheerleaders did an exceedingly good job and they added the pep and school spirit the team needed. Even though there were rainly days the cheerleaders could be seen out in front cheering cur team on. These girls had better cooperation JUNIOR CHEERLEADERS Left to right, Row lr D. Sofield, C.

There was also a better turnout this year than in previous years, which shows that more students are interested in their fellow class-mates and are willing to cheer with the cheerleaders. This year the cheerleaders com- posed some new cheers which were superlative. The varsity cheerleaders had two wonderful girls as captains: Terry Giordano and Joan Breiden- bach while the junior varsity captain was Car- melito Catalano. The cheerleaders were spurred on by the enthusiasm and guidance of Miss Dorwin. Least of all we must not forget our vivacious and stunning Drum Maiorettes in their tall hats and attractive uniforms. The two girls who did an exceptional iob were Barbara Noble and Joanne Miller. They led our band to success, and we are all very proud of the fine job they did. Hempstead's Marching Band will long be re- membered in years to come as the best and will always be known for its fine showmanship. All these attractions put together give us what we know and will always remember as the HEMP- STEAD MARCHING BAND. First game ot the season-Tigers defeat Lawrence final seconds. Varsity Football EMPSTEAD started its football season well and ended it gloriously, but in between there was only a dull exhibition of what looked like football. This period was marked with occa- sional flashes of brilliance in ball-handling and coordination. The Tigers, with their backs to the wall, won the first game from a rugged Lawrence team by scoring a touchdown in the last few seconds of the game. The final score was 14-12. Showing the spirit those in the know said they would, the team next squared off against Freeport. The Tigers scratched and clawed, but unfortunately they could only get as far as the one-foot line when time ran out. Hempstead lost the game by the score 14-7. Hempstead, sulking at its defeat, faced Mine- ola which handed our boys a 20-13 defeat. Ready for the kick-off-Bob Reevs Conference-Tom Forbes and Mr. lt's a tossup-Two capta ns and Neil Gaylor. Schuessler. former Mayor Ashdown s lf' K' X A While Coach Schuessler grimly stalked the side- lines and chewed on the stem of his pipe la new additionl, the team fumbled and stumbled its way through an unshakeable Mineola defense. The game against Valley Stream was played on foreign soil. Hundreds of the faithful, never- theless, showed up to cheer the Tigers on. The bitter struggle ended in a 14-14 deadlock. Val- ley Stream had a good team and it is much to Hempstead's credit that we equalled them in zeal and verve. The day dawned dark, gloomy, and rainy for the contest with Mepham. The Pirates, always a strong adversary, agreed to postpone the game to Election Day, which was the following Tues- day. Although Tuesday, weather-wise, was worse than Saturday, the two teams fought and Houn- dered in the mud, with the outcome T2-O in favor of Mepham. Still roaming, the Tigers played Baldwin at the Baldwin Stadium. The tough Golden Wave left the team weary and battered, defeating it, T4-O. The last home game of the season was against Sewanhaka. The boys from Floral Park, with an advantage of a much larger squad, won the game, 20-O, but not easily, because Hempstead fought tooth and nail all the way to the end. On a cold Thanksgiving morning, the tradi- tional Glen Cove-Hempstead game for the Chap- man Bell took place. A great many local followers of the Tigers, including a large number of alumni, watched as a Hghting, flashy Hempstead varsity thrashed the Glen Cove team by a score of T9-7. Looking back on the 2-5-l record, one might be depressed. This should not be, however, for every game played was played against a strong opponent. Every team has its outstanding players and our team was not lacking in that respect. Paced by senior, John Arsell, who was named to the All-Metropolitan and All-Nassau center spot, George Dempster, All-Nassau tackle, speedy end, Ben Bass, and hardrrunning halfback, Bob Reevs, Hempstead had nothing to be ashamed of. The varsity players, capably handled by Head Coach Mr. Scheussler, End Coach Mr. Keenan and Line Coach Mr. Beck, displayed an incal- culable amount of spirit. The record notwith- standing, the team in lieu of high scores won a reputation for sportsmanship and clean play sec- ond to none. The outlook for next year's football season is very encouraging. The high calibre of returning players will be an important factor in the Triple-A supremacy next year. High hopes are placed on iunior veterans George Dempster, Carl Stahl, Joe Chicco, Larry Howland and Larry Winston. Don Kornrumpf, a startling sophomore back, will be another returning veteran on next year's squad. This year's Tigers had the privilege and pleas- ure of being the first team to play on the recently finished athletic field. Dedicated by Mr. Beddow and members of the school board, the field was welcomed by the students and the faculty who had to travel last year to see the team play. Left to right, Seated. G.

Varsity Basketball HE i955 Tiger baseball team, while getting oft to a slow start, still established itself as one of the top teams in the county by the end of the season. They opened the season with two impressive victories by the scores of 66 to 25 and 70 to 24 over Westbury. However, they were tripped up cn the next four occasions by Manhasset, Sewanhaka, and twice by a very strong Mineola quintet. On their next outing the Hempstead cagers squeaked by Lawrence by a 62 to 60 score. After losing an extremely close decision to Long Beach, the Tigers whipped Valley Stream and Freeport by the scores of 6l to 5l and 75 to 65 respectively. Hempstead then dropped consecutive games to Mepham and Long Beach, In a return meeting with Freeport they again were victorious. However, in a non-league tilt with Glen Cove the Hempstead team was defeated. Coming down the home stretch the Tigers really caught on fire, tripping up Sewanhaka, Lawrence, and Valley Stream by impressive scores. However, the Tigers finished out the season with a 62 to 56 loss to Mepham. The outstanding players on this year's team were: Willie Grant, Jon Cheshire, Frank Montiero, Gene Temple, and Charlie Hagenah, while supporting these players were Tom Galvin, Dick Duswald, and Charlie Powell. With several top flight players returning from this year's team along with the fine Junior Varsity talent graduating to the Varsity, the outlook for next year is very promising.

Unfortunately, four of the victories came in exhibition games with Levittown and Massapequa, with the result that the team's league record was a much less showy 5 and 8. The team, coached by Mr. Nilsson and captained by hard- hitting third baseman Ed Suchan, started off in fine fettle, win- ning their four exhibition games. The boys also finished up the season in a blaze of glory, scoring victories in the final two games. A few difficulties were encountered in the middle of the schedule, however, as the Tigers hit an unexplained five game losing streak, which knocked any championship aspirations which they might have entertained into the proverbial cocked hat. They rallied strongly after this disastrous turn of events to take five of the last eight games, thus serving notice to all interested parties that l955 will see a team of championship calibre representing Hempstead High. The l954 boys had nothing to be ashamed of, for depend- able players cropped up at all positions. The pitching depart- ment was well stocked with talent as Tommy Forbes, Hal Ken- nedy, and Bob Reevs sparkled for the Tiger nine. Good fielding and solid hitting was turned in by such stalwarts as Ben Bass, Spencer Brink, Butch Caliendo, Ken Christie, Ronny Davies, Dick Demott, Tony Farina, George Rilke, Frank Salantri, and of course, Captain Ed Suchan. l67 Varsity Baseball Peter Tsairis I Track R. KRAUSE centered his team around a fine nucleus. ln the running events it was Doug Smith, Dick Cheshire, and the relay team, while the field events were dominated by Dick Duswald and Alex Staut. Sewanhaka beat Hempstead to the score of 59 to 45, which started the season bad, but from then on Coach Krause had no trouble in getting good workouts. ln the next five meets the Tigers ran their competition under. Valley Stream fell to the score of 41 V2 to 62V2. Then Mepham gave our trackmen the toughest time since the Indians of Sewanhaka, but still lost 45V1 to 58V2. From then on Hempstead was unbeatable. They rolled over Oceanside and Bald- xi win by 21 V3-31 V3-76V3 in a triangular meet. The Red Devils lost to the score of 34 to 70 and Lawrence fell hard to the score of 78 to 26. Thus we ended the regular season with a 6 and l record. In the Section one, S. S. A. L. County, and Section eight meets Sewanhaka won and Hempstead came in second. We had splendid performances turned in by Doug Smith, Dick Cheshire, the relay team, and Dick Duswald in the State meet. On all sides Hempstead had a well rounded track team in '54.

Rifle Team HIS year our rifle team had scheduled eighteen matches and three tournaments which promised to keep the squad mighty busy. Although the team started out a bit shakily it quickly found its stride, and finished up the season with a l2-6 record. Graduation last year took its toll and the team lost o sizable number of its veterans. An old timer who was still with us was captain Frank Campbell. Other varsity men backing him up were Jim Burwell, Ed Barchuk, Fred Gutekunst, Jerry Clofiey, Roger Augustine, Richard Byzdyk, and Henry Buthmann. By June, Bill VanderMinden, Henry Szabronski and Bob VonEIm will have attained varsity membership. Our championship teams have been coached by Mr. Voorhies for many seasons now and much credit is due him. He expressed his confidence in the team's success for this season and the squad again lived up to his expectation, placing third in county, but winning the Long lsland championship for the fifth year in a row. l69 W W Left to right, Row I M Gross, E.

The team, which included Ben Plawski, Ed Ziminski, Jim McNamara, Frank Ficarra, and Paul Chronis, was coached by Mr. Levin. The Tiger keglers whipped Baldwin 5-O, 5-O, 5-O, Valley Stream 5-O, 4-l, Freeport 5-O, 4-l, 3-2, Sewanhaka 5-O, 5-O, 5-O, and Lawrence 3-2. Hempstead lost only to Lawrence by the score of 3-2 and A-l. The Hempstead team finished the season with a very im- pressive 57 and l3 record. With Ben Plawski, Ed Ziminski, and Jim McNamara returning next year, the Hempstead team will be a strong contender for the S. S. A. L. title. Tennis UR net-men had a streak of bad luck last season, but then we can't all win the Davis Cup. Of the nine matches played, our team won one. This lone victory was over Oceanside, and the score was A-l. Another game looked like a Hempstead victory until the final tally, but it was close-3-2 for Central. That was a hard one to have to give up. Every player did his best, but the team was made up of almost entirely inexperienced material. Robert Balacek was the only one who had real previous experience. The boys showed real progress as the weeks passed. This year, with most of the fellows returning to the team, we should have a real bang-up season with many victories of which to boast, One of our men may help win the Davis Cup yet. Golf EMPSTEAD HIGHS golf team, coached by Mr. Faust, had a somewhat indifferent season last spring. The overall record was five wins and nine defeats. The team, headed by Charlie Just, started out on the right foot with a 4-l win over Southside. However, in their next two starts, the boys suffered defeats at the hands of Sewanhaka and Chaminade. They seemed well on the road to re- covery, though, with three wins over West Hempstead, Oceanside, and Sewanhaka. Then came disaster. They dropped their next four matches, the worst one being a 7-O shutout engineered by Garden City. After this, they came back for a win over Levittown, 5-O, but finished up the season with three consecutive losses. The team's final league record was 5 wins and 5 losses. Barry Hawkins, Morgan Whitney, George Whitelaw, Frank Dussel, and Frank Campbell were the outstanding members of last year's golf team. l7l ? 1 'Q c X H 41 Y O Q sl 561 X 'fjfliiy 0 . ol O 'Q o O O X Left to right, Row l D.

A., . S 'iff-.ei-'wg mv I . . B o y s R I cl I n g VERY Tuesday afternoon a group of eager equestrians met under the supervision of Mr. Schaedel. They hurried to the stables housing some fine thoroughbreds anrl watched while the grooms expertly bridled and saddled the horses for them. When all was ready, they mounted and waited for the tally-ho call. Ott they went into the wild blue yonder for a gallop, canter, or walk around the lake or town park on beautiful bridle paths. They not only enioyed the company of others, the scenery, and the weather, but they learned good horsemanship. Once in a while someone ran into a little difficulty, such as a balky horse or an over- eager one, but everyone had a good time. Perhaps one of these days we will be hearing of a Hempstead High School alumnus riding in the horse show or winning big stakes ai' Belmont as a champion iockey. Cross Country LTHOUGH last year's stars, Doug Smith and Dick Cheshire, were graduated, H:mpstead's harriers came through with a better than average record. Mr. Franz has assured good running next year by building his team around iuniors and sophomores. Our fleet-footed hill and dale men started the tall sports season with a decisive victory over strong competition: Mepham and Massa- pequa. ln their next three meets they managed to triumph over Malverne, Baldwin and Valley Stream and lost only to Freeport and Lynbrook. After a few practice runs on the difticult Bethpage State Park, the team was ready for the championship meets. Although none of our runners were in the top ten, Jim Donady, Irving Duffy, Mike Popowitch, .lim Miles, and captain John Madigan placed l5th, 28th, 29th, 30th, 33rd respectively to carry Hempstead into fourth place in both the S. S. A. L. and the Section Eight Championship. Boys' Softball T isn't easy to lose three of the first four games of a twelve game season and then go on to wfn the championship. But our i954 softball team did iust that, winning the final eight games in a row to take the S. S. A. L. championship with a 9-3 record. Led by captain Dick Barry and co-captain Dick Hendricks, the boys took three games from Southside and Sewanhaka and two out of three from Baldwin. Valley Stream proved to be our toughest opponent, beating us the first two times we played. In the third game, however, Joe Burwell held the Valley Stream boys to one unearned run, as the Tiger batsmen pounded out eight markers to win going away. With four of the nine starting players returning for this season, plus several good reserves, Mr. Mills can once again expect to coach a winner as our boys take aim on another championship.

V, Football squad this year was one of the best in the school's history. The Jay Vee's chalked up six wins and one loss, with 136 total points to the opposition's 19. The first game, against Lawrence, was a rout, ending 27-O in favor of the Tigers. Central and Freeport, the next two teams, proved no match for the Hempsteadites, who shut them out with scores of 13-O and 18-O, respectively. A strong Mineola team barely eked out a close 13-6 victory. The Jay Vees were undaunted, as shown by their slaughter of Mepham by a 19-O score. This game was marked by excellent blocking and a 95-yard touchdown run by haltback Joe Ficarra. The romping Tigers easily downed Baldwin to the tune of 22-6. The season's final game proved to be the best one. Racking up the largest single score of the season, the J. V. bowled over the Sewanhaka lndians with 31 points to their none. The excellence of the Junior Varsity was such that almost every man was moved to Varsity standing. The boys attribute their success to their fine coach, Mr. Wilson. He, however, modestly asserts that team play was the vital factor. A partial list of outstanding players includes John Edwards, John Ramo, Brad GrilTin, Carl Moller, Ernie Tells and Jim Sherman. s ter Lett to right, Seated A, Lapsansky, L. Miller, R, Heaney, D.

One is inclined to be deceived by their poor showing on the books, since they lost every game played. These boys have no reason to be ashamed, however, for they displayed sports- manship and real team spirit. Hamstrung by the small number of players, the boys went into every game as the underdog. No game was easily won from them, nor were there any gripes or excuses for their record. The excellent handling by coach Doc White was shown by the spirit of our Frosh. Since it was their first year of high school football, they weren't expected to be spectacular. Having a smaller freshman class than in recent years to choose from, Mr. White did his best and produced a group of clean, game football players. There is no doubt that freshman football has given the boys plenty of experience and that they will become fine J. V. players. Some of the outstanding players were: Bob Willet, Sunny Glasgow, Jim Edwards, Robert Richards, William Jackey and Bob De Lar. Other boys who have contributed greatly to the squad are: Tay Krause, Maior Bottoms and Allen Bonniwell. All of the boys mentioned, and many more certainly did their best. They did a swell iob and earned credit for their playing. Nice going, boys! Left to right, Row I R. De Lar, R. Jacobs, R. Dargan, 8, Scheibl, A. Marana, P. StoIierotT, M. Green, D. Hayden. Row ll' B.

Basketball HIS year's J. V. basketball team established itself as a top-notch ball club that will bear watching next year when the boys step into the shoes of the graduating varsity performers. Combining good outside shooting with excellent rebounding, the Tigers rolled up a lO-5 record, a mighty fine performance any way you look at it. The boys started out with their annual pair of victories over Westbury. Mineola handed them their first setback but they bounced back to knock of? Manhasset in overtime, 4l-39. Mineola tried for a sweep and failed as the Tigers enjoyed a revenge victory, 52-4l. Sewanhaka was next on the agenda, but the less said about that game, the better, The boys got rolling then, taking four games in succession, three in overtime. Lawrence, Central, and Freeport all fell before our boys' superior playing in the extra sessions. Sandwiched in between was a 40-25 victory over Long Beach. A fighting Mepham team ended the winning streak, scoring a 54-52 heart-breaker over our hustling quintet. The Tigers split the last four games down the middle, winning their fifth overtime game, a 47-45 victory over Freeport, and tri- umphing over Glen Cove, 54-4l. Unfortunately, the boys dropped the final pair, one to the powerful Sewanhaka aggregation and one to Lawrence, the latter a 49-48 squeaker. Outstanding players were Ernie Fells, Tom Wasiak, Ed Muller, Jim Donady, Jim Turnbull, Jim Hawks, and George Bookhard. I76 Left to right, Row I- M. Brustmeyer, S. Wolclner, B. Bookhard, G. Foley, R.

Freshman Basketball HIS year's Hempstead frosh basketball team has had a very successful season. Capably coached by Mr. Donald Francis, their overall record was 9 wins and 2 losses. However, one of the games lost was avenged in a return meeting later. Thus, this year's team was a steadily improving ball club as can be seen by examin- ing their record. They started OH the season with a hard-fought loss to Memorial Junior High by the score of 40 to 35. They followed this up with a 50 to -42 win over a stubborn Levittown squad. They suffered their second defeat at the hands of Lawrence by the score of 40 to 34. This proved to be their last loss. They won seven contests including 60 to 34 and 65 to 28 wins over Malverne and a return match defeat of Memorial Junior High. The usual starting five consisted of Bill Jackie, their high scoring star, Blandy Book- hardt, Angelo Paraninfo, Bob Harte, and Hugh Glasco. They were ably backed up by such players as Dick Cooper, Ralph Davis, and George Foley. A few of these players played some varsity ball toward the end of the season gaining some very valuable experi- ence. The Freshman team is usually a very good indication of the quality of Varsity teams in the future. This year's freshman team, with a bit of luck, can be considered a serious threat for the county championship in years to come. l77 I f wi f 'swf K T I A' -r r If X! i mem.. ,.

Modern Dance N RACEFUL figures clad in black leotards and dancing to music that expresses various moods is descriptive of the thirty girls of the Modern Dance Club. To be eligible for this club, one must be a junior or senior girl and must participate in the Modern Dance classes every Monday and Wednesday during the 8th and 9th period. Tryouts for the club were held a month after classes began and the girls were iudged for their sense of rhythm, their ability and their interest. The choreography for each dance is designed almost entirely by the girls themselves but Mrs. Barry, the group's well-liked advisor, often lends a helping hand. In Mrs. Barry's absence, there was Lynn King, a capable iunior who was chosen as the student leader. Diane Sofield was elected as the assistant student leader. As in previous years, a iunior was decided upon to fill this position. This year, in addition to dancing for the Greek Games and various other performances, the girls created two dance routines for the Hempstead High School music concert given at Hofstra College. Despite the pull of seldom-used muscles, the satisfaction of self-expression is very rewarding. Summing it up, one might say that the motto of the club is enjoyment, exercise, and expression. 178 Gym Aides N every gym class there are four or five girls who participate in the class activities but in addition act as the gym teacher's as' sistants. These gym aides, as they are called, are selected each year from over one hundred girls. Chosen for their ability and leadership, their cooperativeness and, most important, for their pleasing per- sonalities, they assist one period o day every week. Setting up the gym equipment, taking attendance and demon- strating various techniques to the students, are part ofthe gym aides' iob. They help to keep the gym class organized and take care of all the little details that the gym teacher would ordinarily not have time to do. During the past year these sports-minded girls met under the direction of the head gym teacher, Miss MacCallum, affectionately known to all as Miss Mac, and under the student leader Pat Paredes. They discussed the rules and regulations of the gym aides, improve- ment of the gym classes and other problems that may have arisen. They enioy their work and at the same time gain self-assurance and learn to accept responsibilities. In this way, the gym aides gain confidence and experience in assuming additional responsibilities in the future. Left to right, Row I R. Fugua, A. Capozzi, D. Davis, P.

The spirit of these leaders is exemplified by the following motto under which they govern themselves: The important thing in the game is not the winning but taking part-the essential thing is not conquering but fighting well. This year's leaders and their sports follow: Badminton, Pat Bonni- well, Basketball, Joyce Seaman, Bowling, Martha Matulonis, Cheer- leading, captain, Terry Giordano, co-captain, Joan Breidenbach, Greek Games, Ruth Carling, Gym Aides, Pat Paredes, Modern Dance, Lilyan King, Ping Pong, Rhoda Schaeffer, and Softball, Nancy Taylor. These girls contribute both time and effort to attain extra points towards their gym awards. Girls' Basketball SPORT enioyed by both sexes-basketball-is played with much vim and vigor by the female set at H. H. S. With Joyce Seaman as student-leader the gals had a healthy season. The stu- dents were broken up into two groups-juniors and seniors-8th period, with Thelma Watts as captain and sophs 9th with Arlene Gillespie, Brenda Baskind, Joan Robinson and Lorraine Muller shar- ing the responsibilities. The honor team which is comprised of the best girls included: Guards, Bernice Chipperfield, Joyce Seaman, Nancy Taylor, Dottie Van Ness, Forwards, Thelma Watts, Lynn King, Angie Seale and Arlene Gillespie. The reserve team, or second string included, Guards, Betty Ultsch, Deccie Ramage, Irma Rogers, Alice Dean, For- wards, Barbara Kilian, Claire Elznic, Marilyn Schwitz and Kathleen Rodler. ln its only inter-mural game the honor team lost to West Hemp- stead, while the reserve team was victorious. Girls' Bowling E have many things we cqn boast of, among them the girls' bowling team. This year the teams wound up their season at the end of January by holding an intramural contest in which the junior-senior group emerged victorious over the sophomores. The girls could be found earnestly practicing at the Hempstead Recreation Center two days each week. High scorers among these bowling enthusiasts in the junior-senior group were Martha Matu- lonis, Pat Ott, Louise Edwards and Dorothy Davis. The sophomores carte through with Joan Freudenberger, Carolyn Crouch, Patricia O'l.oughIin, and Pat Shaw as top scorers. Miss Silver was the faculty leader for the iuniors and seniors and was aided by Martha Matulonis, the student leader. The sophomore group has Miss Congiu as their faculty advisor while Dorothy Davis and Louise Edwards headed the group. l8l gg f as 4 as C Left to right, Row I P. Bonniwell, C. Elznic, B. Kilian, A.

Miss MacCullurn Badminton HE most popular girls' sport, aside from Greek Games, in Hemp- stead High School, seems to be badminton. This year eighty girls practiced and learned the rules of badminton in the girls' gym. There to coach this activity was Miss Mac and helping her was the student leader, Pat Bonniwell. The group, composed of sophomores, iuniors and seniors, held a round-robin tournament. Carol Schuman and Dorothy Schwing emerged the finalists in the senior division. At a similar tournament, held for the iuniors, Alice Dean and Barbara Kilian were the winners while in the sophomore class competition, Eleanor Streeter and June Smith took first place. If you want exercise and enjoyment, badminton is the sport for you! Ping Pong N the past, many girls have turned to ping pong for recreation and this year was no exception. Since the girls could not use the athletic field, ping pong was inserted as a fall activity, whereas it is usually a winter sport. During the fall session, Rhoda Schaeffer was the student leader. Those who attained membership on the honor team were Barbara Blocker, Eileen Patterson, Arline Gillespie, Dorothy Davis, Louise Edwards and Rhoda Schaeffer. Advising these girls was Mrs. Reicher. The most anticipated event held during the season was the Round Robin Tournament. The two sets of doubles winners were Connie Viscosi and Lois Fennelly, Arline Perion and Priscilla Di Pong. Girls' Softball HlLE H. H. S.'s athletic field was being remodeled, girls' soft- ball was discontinued. Finally, one year after the field's com- pletion, we saw the return of one of the most popular sports among the female set in our school. Organizing this sport with the help of the faculty advisor was Nancy Taylor, the student leader. Since the annual Greek Games continue through April and all activities must cease at the beginning of June, the girls had only one month to play. But making good use of the short time allowed, the girls practiced twice a week. The juniors and seniors met with Miss MacCallum during the eighth period on Tuesdays and Thurs- days and the sophomores came during the ninth period on Mondays and Wednesdays with Mrs. Reicher. The girls, eager devotees of the game, practiced diligently to improve their skill in this popular and enioyable sport. l83 W Y O Y Greek Games r 'sf HE i954 Greek Games dedicated to Hermes, ,fi ff Q with .loan Dawson as student chairman, g ' again brought out record crowds to the boys' Q ' gym. The Spartans used as their entrance forma- tion a streak of lightning, the Athenians used ' I that of two crossroads. The Spartan challenge, S Vrri given by Alice Dean, was returned by Athenian, .,Vgf , Charlena Pearson. On both Friday and Saturday evenings hur- dling for form was won by the Athenians, On 'L Saturday, Athenian Betty Ultsch and Deanna ? S' Kost tied in discus. N Next were the torch and hoop races. On Fri- 'iff A 't'-5' day, the Spartans won both hoop races while Komleen Rodler the Athenians won both torch events. On Satur- day, the teams tied in both contests. The demonstration given by the exhibition horses and charioteers followed. The judges chose the Athenians as winners on both nights, while the Spartans won the chariot design. The cover design and ode were won by Jane Shurtlefl' and Lois Fennelly respectively.

Above Miles Shoe Store Nl 'J .il Edward Pinkus and Lakshman Fernando. Visiting Student XPECTING to see snow, Lakshman Fernando, known to us as Lucky, arrived at Hemp- stead High for a two-week visit. Lucky, an eighteen year old Ceylonese, attends St. Thomas' College in Mt. Levina, Ceylon. His studies in- clude Sinhalese, Ceylon history, geography, and political science, the field in which he is maior- ing. Chosen as a result of an essay he wrote en- titled The World We Want, Lucky came to us from Ceylon. He was much impressed by the fine relations of white and Negro students in our school and the informality between faculty and students. The pushing about and tremendous number of students in the halls amazed him, while the importance attachea to music in Hemp- stead High interested him greatly. Many of us were amazed to learn that Lucky began his study of English in kinder- garten. This accounts for his fluency and the excellent vocabulary he possesses. Besides know- ing the English language, Lucky speaks Sin- halese lnativel, Tamil, and has studied Latin. His hobbies include stamp collecting, participat- ing in social service work, and reading about history. After college Lucky plans to go to a uni- versity in Ceylon and hopes to return to the United States to further his education. lt was a wonderful experience for all to have Lucky visit our school. D.

But you're too tired and in too much of a hurry to pick it up. And what about that wad of bubblegum left in English class? Don't you vaguely remember sticking it under your desk after receiving the evil eye? There are approximately twenty-five hundred students in our school. Many are careless about litter and still, the school is never dirty or untidy. If the dirt and paper lingered and gathered, can you imagine how our school would look? Did you ever stop to think about who cleans up these vast rooms and halls? The custodians at Hemp- stead go about their work day after day, pa- tiently cleaning, fixing, and giving the school a neat and orderly appearance. Too concerned with our own little problems, we tend to take for granted the work done by our custodians. A little cooperation on our part will go a long way to easing their iob and keep- ing our school in ship shape. verybod ? be X Pun 0 NF vi, 2-f an -f ia Q.

FRANKLIN STREET Near Graham Avenue HEMPSTEAD, N. Y. Miss Newlon and her class. Creative Writing UNIOR students, who are interested in writing, are encouraged to select Creative Writing. This group of seniors is picked at the end of their iunior year by the English teachers. Every- one has an equal chance of being selected, although the ones who show most promise are picked. The main obiective of Creative Writing is to help the students to write more clearly and im- aginatively. They write essays and short stories and poetry. Discussing these in class is a lot of fun and proves very interesting. At the conclu- sion of each week, each student writes a com- position which is read and analyzed by the students the following Monday. They express their opinions on them, whether good or bad, and try to help each other to improve them. Besides doing all this, the students must keep up with their regular senior English work. Under the fine direction of Miss Newlon, this group has proven to be one of the most popular in Hempstead High School. Miss Newlon stated, I only wish more students could be in it. I'm sure we all feel the same way. Perhaps in the future it may grow larger, but only time will tell. W Compliments of The Second National Bank Gr. Trust Company of Hempstead, N. Y. A.

Well, he's one of Hempstead's most active seniors. He's a member of the Senior Executive Council, the Student Council, and the Advisory Board of the Booster Club. Perhaps you heard of him in 1953, when he took out his citizenship papers. Poul arrived from Denmark at the age of ten, and on November 6, 1953, he became a full- fledged American citizen. When asked if he would like to return to Denmark, he answered, To visit my relatives and friends, yes, for a permanent stay, no. What do you think impressed him most when he first arrived? Well, when he first got oft the Queen Elizabeth, his aunt took him for a tour of New York City. He was amazed at the tall buildings and when he saw the Empire State building, he was afraid it would fall! With the help of his cousin, a Hempstead High alumnus, Richard Christensen, Poul learned as much English as those who attended Ludlum school with him. Those who know Poul may have tasted his marvelous cooking, for he also serves as a cook in the Navy Reserve. After graduation and four years of naval service, Poul has high hopes of becoming a chemical engineer. Besf Wishes fo THE CLASS OF 'I955 WOOD, WILKLOW 61. RITTER 250 FULTON STREET HEMPSTEAD, N. Y.

Senior-Frosh Day AST November 4, the annual, exciting event, Senior-Frosh Day, which officially initiates the freshman girls into our school, took place. The halls seemed transformed into a veritable nursery school, with baby girls dressed in knee socks, short dresses, baby bonnets, and bibs. Of course, each girl had a large, but rap- idly decreasing, supply of Iollipops which were given, upon request, to the senior girls. All dressed up in fancy aprons, bows in their hair and stuffed animals and dolls tucked under their arms, the Senior girls marched through the halls smiling bravely in spite of the fact that their heels were killing them. After school, a wonderful party was held for all the girls, with entertainment provided by the Halfbeats and some talented and courageous Seniors who sang, danced, played or acted to the delight of all present. After refreshments were served, attractive scatter-pins were awarded to the most deserving frosh girls. Eleanor Drake was chosen as the cutest freshman, and Virginia Scott the one with the most original costume. Donna Wider was voted as having the prettiest smile, while Pat Grevsted received an award for having the pret- tiest hair. Linda Drum was selected as the most typical of all the frosh. Lynn Gilbert was the chairman of the iudges and Ellen Mclver assisted her as co-chairman.

Show 11 EAVEN was never like this! This certainly proved true about this year's talent- studded G. O. Show. This program, packed with laughter, was presented by the Student Council in the auditorium, on November nineteenth. Two performances were given, the auditorium being packed both times. Opening the show were introductions by Gary Romeo and Anita Vroman. A good skit followed with St. Peter lDick Morganl and Napoleon lRaIph Dellagattil adding a few laughs by per- mitting Alice Good Girl lTerry Fortel to enter Paradise and by sending the other way Herkimer the Hood Uimmy Tsighisl. A whisk of cloud-dust and a carrier angel appeared to tell St. Peter that more people had arrived. He decided to admit them into heaven on the basis of their talent and he would be the iudge of it. All the acts were outstanding. Among them was a solo by Levi Murray and a piano-organ duet by Werner Dieman and Betty Sachlebon. Louise Nor- wood delivered an inspiring rendition of Star Dust. Climaxing the show was an alluring angel lBarbara Noblel who completely swept Napoleon and St. Peter oft their feet. Anita Vroman headed the show which was written and directed by Ann Lessler, Miss New- lon added fine advisory assistance to the Stu- dent Council which put on a show worth being proud of. Everyone is looking forward to more of these in the future. FISHER STUDIO, Inc.

Country Fair HIS year something new and diFTerent was introduced on the ever-busy scene of the Hempstead campus. The Hempstead Classroom Teachers Association held a fair, for the pur- pose of raising money for their scholarship fund. Hundreds flocked to the doors of the Boys' Gym and spent the evening land moneyl at the various attractions and booths. The award for the attraction with the biggest attendance goes to those who were in charge of the freak show, with the second prize going to the staff of the kissing booth, which was kept busy all night by our co-eds and our Romeos. As you wandered around the gym you could stop and throw darts, pitch pennies, have your fortune told, go fishing, and even have your picture taken with your head sticking through cardboard, on which was painted the body of a fat lady. If you got thirsty or hungry there were soft- drinks and doughnuts for sale. These could be enjoyed while sitting in the bleachers listening to our own Farmer Jones in the form of Mr. Krause lwith those crazy red suspendersl, whose iob it was to call chance and door prize num- bers. Mr. Krause also did a memorable iob in bringing the fair to a close as he brilliantly led the auction sale of the remainder of goods that hadn't been sold. The evening was voted an overwhelimng suc- cess and we are anxiously looking forward to a repeat performance. IVanhoe 1,7200 Authorized 0 257 MAIN STREET HILL MOTORS, Inc. I j Dealer HEMPSTEAD, N. Y.

The Boys'Broke BaH T long last someone came up with an idea that gave the girls top hand. What was it? The Boys' Broke Ball. The time? Friday night, March ll. The place? The boys' gym. How did one get to go? To the girls this presented no problem, they simply asked the fellows this time. The boys? They sat around and waited to be asked. While the boys were sitting around waiting, they enjoyed watching the girls running to get them-but quick! If they started to worry- good! That's just what the girls wanted. Friday night the real switch took place when the girls, carrying corsages ranging from car- nations to all sorts of odds-and-ends tied to- gether, called for their escorts. The gym was gaily decorated with crepe paper and balloons. The Halfbeats furnished the music while coke and doughnuts were served. lt was most interesting to see who picked whom and why. Everyone agreed that it was one of the best ideas to hit Hempstead in ages. The proceeds, totaling over one hundred dol- lars, were given to charity. Tel.

The event took place on June 4, in the boys' gym, which was transformed into a gleaming array of blue and silver. The Starlight Serenade was the theme for the prom and a wonderful iob of heading the decorating committee was done by co-chairmen Alice Kay and Carol Robbins. The chairmen of the six smaller, but quite important, committees were Sue Horton, bandstand, Diane Davis, smok- ing room, Carol Cohen, refreshment stand, Anita Vroman, backdrop, Janet Faulks, table decora- tions, and Betsy Hughs, entrance. Of course, the ambitious juniors, who came to the gym eighth and ninth periods each day, must also receive credit for the success of the prom. The wonderful music was supplied by Paul Muro's band, and a photographer was on hand to take souvenir pictures for those who wanted them. With Miss Dorwin, Miss Taft, Miss Abbot, and Mr. Zara as class advisors, and Mr. Chambers as the art director, the prom was sure to be a success. All who went had a wonderful time and probably went home with stars in their eyes and memories floating about in their sleepy heads. SECRETARIAL TRAINING - o good career start!

HROUGH the years, as I have hung upon the wall looking at the oh so intelligent faces of the future fathers of America, I have learned to recognize from the various crestfallen looks, what deep secrets are concealed in each head. No doubt it is monotonous for one to remain in the same place for a long time, but there is consolation in the fact that my wheels and axles keep good time while those of the dear boys are out of line. On contemplating these various characters we always find a Little Lord Fauntleroy placidly pacing the floor, occasionally mopping his brow awaiting punishment like a convict in the death house. Of course there's my old friend the space- waster who has occupied our office so long he's become one of the family with a seat reserved for his daily use. I'm greatly amused at the dullard who catches up on the lost sleep he couldn't find the night before. He sprawls himself out horizontally, folds his arms, closes his eyes and becomes oblivious to his present state in life. There are countless other denizens too numer- ous to mention.

I Christmas T was clearly evident that Christmas was once more upon us. The halls resounded with the tinkling of bells which the girls wore on their shoes, petticoats, or even in their hair. ln our halls stood two beautiful Christmas trees which members of the Student Council had decorated with chains of gaily colored paper and snow- flakes cut from shining tinsel. One stood outside Mr. Beddow's oflice while the other was outside the boys' gym. Signs wishing all cz Merry Christmas were strung up at the hall intersections and lively posters with Santa waving gaily to the passers- by were hung on various bulletin boards. On the last day of school before Christmas vacation everyone enioyed Christmas parties in the homerooms where singing, dancing and, of course, eating were the order of the day. The food was prepared by some expert cooks. All day long the Glee Clubs and the A Cappella Choir stopped by for a special number. A visit to the oftices was made more pleasurable by the gay scenes and other holiday trappings which greeted one upon entering. Christmas at H. H. S. is always truly a Merry Christmas.

Mrs. Greenlund places the crown on winners, Carolyn Crouch and Bill Ausman. Sophomore Class Party HIS year's sophomore party was an afternoon devoted to entertainment, dancing, and re- freshments all of which was enioyed by the sophomore boys and girls who attended. The party started off with the flag salute led by William Ausman. Then followed community singing of the Sophomore Song, Auld Lang Syne and several others. The whole afifair was high- lighted by the traditional crowning of a king and queen, William Ausman and Carolyn Crouch respectively, who were chosen because they each found a ring in their ice cream sandwiches. En- tertainment was provided by Sara Lee Garick, who did a Charleston, and Eva Arthur and Judy Leek who also danced. Mr. Franz led the students in square and folk dancing, after which refresh- ments were served. This wonderful party was made possible through the combined etTorts of Mrs. Greenlund, sophomore class advisor, and Miss lgnelzi, pro- gram chairman of the sophomore class.

The Opening of the Athletic Field T was on October 2, l954, that the new, remodeled Hempstead High School Athletic Field was opened for the use of the students. Beneath a dreamy, blue sky, as far as one could see, stretched a field of green surrounded by iammed bleachers completely covered with sun- light. After the multicolor glare of an exploding fiash bulb drifted from our blinking eyes we witnessed an eagerly anticipated event. Mr. Robert J. Hartnett, president of the i953-54 Board of Education cut the ribbon that bound the reiuvenated Tiger Territory. Among the dis- tinguished guests present were: His Honor Ernest A. Ashdown, Mayor of the Village of Hempstead, Dr. W. Amos Kincaid, Superintendent of Schools, Leonard S. Welsing, Superintendent of Buildings, Judge Alexander Berman, Leo A. Novick, archi- tect, and various officers of the Board of Educa- tion and of the Lentino Contracting Corporation. As a result of this construction, the field was made larger, an underwater irrigation system was installed and space for girls' athletics was provided. In front of the bleachers where the band sits, a cement plot was constructed to prevent the spread of dry dirt. Everyone hopes this new field will lead us on victoriously. October 2, the day of the open- ing, proved a good amen for it was our first game on the field and our first victory.

Placement EFORE you don those priceless caps and gowns, we suggest that you step into office 4 or office 2, and speak about your employment problem. Did you know that every year Mr. Turnbull prepares a mailing list and sends out approxi- mately 250 letters to various business concerns? This gives businessmen the opportunity of hiring students ready to launch their careers in the working world. Maybe you'll be among the ones requested for a position in a bank, or telephone company, insurance company or aviation plant. Mr. Navarra will write a recommendation which is an influential calling card because rec- ommendations are given only to people worthy of them, and employers know that. They are use- ful in acquiring part-time employment as well. One of the thrills of a lifetime is receiving the first paycheck. When you work after school or on Saturdays, you can be pretty sure of handy pin money. If you aren't working and are de- sirous of a part-time iob, Mr. Turnbull is the man to visit. He will give you suggestions about the iob which is right for you. Mr. Navarra will try to find an opening for you. You'll find their friendly advice a helpful and understanding guide to better employment. l n cl e x Page Administrative Assistants 15 Art Department 24 Audio-Visual Squad 110 Badminton 183 Band 128 Baseball, Varsity 167 Basketball, Freshman 177 Basketball, Girls' 181 Basketball, J, V, 176 Basketball, Varsity 166 Blue and White Corner 146 Board of Education 28 Bowling, Boys' 171 Bowling, Girls' 181 Business Education Department 22 Cafeteria Squad 147 Camera Club 136 Cheerleaders 163 Choir 126 Citizenship Education Department 19 Clerks and Secretaries 17 Colonial 104 Color Guard 162 Commercial Club 117 Co-operative Retailing 132 Counselors and Librarians 16 Cour1selor's Service Squad 111 Cross Country 173 Dedication 4 Dramatics Department 25 Driver Education Department 26 English Department 18 Folk Dance Club 133 Football, Freshman 175 With Compliments of Mr. and Mrs. MILTON PINKUS Football, Junior Varsity Football, Varsity Footlight Club Foreword French Club Freshman Class Future Teachers of America German Club Girls' Sports' Leaders Glockenspiel Golf Greek Games Gym Aides Hall Patrol Health Department Health Service Squad High Steppers Homernaking Department Homeroom Representatives Industrial Arts Department Junior Class Junior Red Cross Junior Science Club Junior Secretaries Junto Club Key Klickers Language Department Latin Club Library Staft Marching Band Entourage Mathematics Department Modern Dance Music Appreciation Club Music Department Oftice No. 5 Squad Orchestra Pallas Club Pathtinders Patriot Pen and Ink Club Pentagon Pioneers Ping Pong Pre-Nursing Principal Principals Service Squad Radio Club Riding, Boys' Rifie Club Rifle Team Science Department Secretarial Hostesses Secretarial Service Squad Secretaries to the Faculty Senior Ball Senior Class Senior Executive Council Senior Science Club Senior Service Squad Sketch Club Spanish Club Softball, Boys' Softball, Girls' Sophomore Class Sophomore Dramatic Workshop Stamp Club Student Council Superintendent of Schools Tennis Track Team Tupiar Twirlerettes Twirlers Varsity Club 174 164 140 6 151 93 118 152 181 162 171 184 179 115 27 117 160 24 120 26 88 145 144 109 130 142 20 150 113 160 21 178 116 25 143 124 131 123 106 138 139 123 183 148 14 137 146 173 114 169 22 116 135 112 35 33 101 144 108 122 149 173 183 90 140 122 102 13 171 168 121 161 161 134 37 MAIN STREET ' HEMPSTEAD ' IVcmhoe 3-I955 A SINCERE THANK YOU TO THE STUDENTS OF HEMPSTEAD HIGH SCHOOL FOR THEIR PATRONAOE Complete Line of Recordings ' Hi-Fidelity 0 Clossicol ' PopuIorI 0 Jazz ' Join the Archie BIeyer Pop Record Club 224 Zfgjl ff-2'-Y' 'Q'- 'ff4.,,,,.. mifwfiffwfifwywfzwx .Jf-fQma-a,s.A4,.4-4LQ- .E!4,,f.WJ'- 1 f'7 4 ', M-A X ff1ff M4-32211 ff'fzWMfm-M4123-TQ TJ' 2? 4' X 'A ,cw MW 7'2 '7 If 214:07 wfmn Am M447 -K3 r 0 D K ' ff x vg ,- gawk .
