He e is proof that good things come in small pack- ages. STEVE NOVEK Noisy, naughty Steve. Does he know it all or doesn’t he? His modesty just pops out all over. Steve’s cackling laugh can be heard all through the school, but he still is sure to make a name for himself. Good luck, Steve. GEORGE NEDER Even though his manner is quiet, George rates with many of us. His shy attitude does not depreciate from his fine character. George is also one of our best drivers. WILLIAM O REILLY Fire Squad 4; Decoration Commit- tee for Junior Prom 3. Bill was voted the cutest boy in the class and the fellow' with the nicest profile. We’re glad that your long seige of illness didn’t keep you from graduation in 11150, Bill.

EDWARD LUONGO Hall Cop 4; Fire Squad 4; Track 3, 4. “Jigger” is most noted in Hicks- ville High for two things: his heels clicking on the floor and the noon hours that he spends longingly gazing at the 100-yard dash tro- phy in the case.

One of our most attractive seniors is Naomi, whose acting ability in the Senior Play will always be thought of as superb. Her training at Barbizon will make her an ex- cellent model during those months that she is not attending Syracuse University. MARGARET McNEIL “Peggy” is another of our more uiet girls who came to H. H. S. from Glen Cove in her sophomore year. She graduated in January and has since been working at the bank. We’ve missed her bright smile and happy ways. Instead of the dreaded chemistry homework, she now handles mortgages, checks and bills of all descriptions. LUCILLE MIRAVAL Honor Roll 1, 2; Comet Yearbook Staff; Senior Play Ticket Commit- tee. Lucille, one of our best dressed gals, is noted for her fine charac- ter and sweet personality. A friendly person, Lucille has taken a place in the hearts of many who will never forget her.
