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. CARLETON MOORE Curriculum Coordinator I5

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.

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
