Office Staff of Hicksville High School Good Morning, Hicksville High School Recently three young ladies graduated from Hicksville High School. They were Miss Margaret Timoszuk, Mrs. Jean Soave (formerly Jean Stahley) and Miss Carolyn Schaufler. They all did a wonderful job while students as evidenced by their permanent records in the office files. Now, all three girls, represent our office staff. There isn't a student who hasn't seen their smiling faces at some time or other while going to high school. The student who is tardy is greeted by one of them and given the privilege of signing his name on the DETENTION LIST. Various activities —plays sporting events, part-time employment, etc.—require students seeing one of these girls for appointments with Miss Farley. Jean Soave Carolyn Schaufler Marraret Timoszuk

TO THE CLASS OF 1955: The class of 1955 may be justly proud of the members of its class Knowing the plans of many of the members of the class, I am confident they will make a splen- did contribution to the welfare and progress of humanity. If we have young people with integrity, sincerity and vision, we need have no fear for the future. Whatever you have received more than others in health, in tal- ents, in ability, in success, in pleasant school experiences, you are expected to render in return, service to others. It is important that each of you have a goal in life, a purpose. The most tragic spectacle I can think of is that of a young man slipping aimlessly through school, then life, secure in the belief that great wealth means happing Much of the satisfaction that the faculty receive in working with young people, comes in see- ing them properly and happily launched. My best wish is for good health, happiness, and success not only in material things but that each one of you possess those moral and spiritual values essential for successful living as responsible citizens. Mable R. Farley, Principal TO THE CLASS OF 1955 HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION represents the accomplishment of an important educational goal. To achieve it both you and yout parents may have made sacrifices. It has not been easy. The personal discipline which has permitted you to overcome all odds until the job was completed, will enable you to meet new experiences and solve more difficult problems. The road you follow now, whether it be college, business, the armed services or homemaking, must be traveled alone. Pursue this road with courage, sincerity and enthusiasm, firm in the knowledge that the world has a place for you. May life be a little brighter, the world a little better, and mankind a littler happier because you passed this way. Thomas Horne, Assistant Principal
