Many times late after school. When clubs have adjourned And locker rooms are quiet When the echoes of marching band have died I have locked up my things And walked slowly down the still halls Watching the custodians carefully sweeping the rooms. Rearranging the desks, erasing the blackboards And closing each room silently, gradually Working forward . . . 4 SPECTRUM x ‘ FPXSident 4 i SPECTRUM 5 Yet today, I, for the last time Walk down these halls And now it is I who am carefully sweeping Rearranging, erasing, working my way forward . . .

Our Comets defeated the Massapequa Chiefs by a score of 13-6. The team played amazingly well. The entertainment for the day began with a mini parade around the football field. The half time show was terrific. It began with the Marching Comets and the Coquettes. As always, the band played well and the Coquettes danced beautifully. Kathy Jaegar was crowned Homecoming queen, with Wendy Andrews, Sue Flana- gan, Jeanne O’Shea and Tara Wilder the proud runners up. As for the floats, they were amazing. Even more amazing was that the Sophomore float won. Their float depicted “Star Wars’’ and its slogan was “May the force be with you.” The Junior float’s slogan was “Comets whip the chiefs” and it was depicted by a covered wagon with two students whipping two chiefs. The Senior float’s slogan was “Comets explode to victory, depicted by a Comet football player exploding out of a football holding a chief's headgear. All the floats were products of hard work and great imagination. Homecoming Day ended with a dance sponsored by the Stu dent Government and the Senior class. Everyone was happy at the day’s turnout and it was committed to the many colors of our high school’s prism. 20 images The Coquettes after a great performance Homecoming queen Kathy Jaegar.

Frank sings Danny’s song. Two Superstars.” Senior Entertainment Night was sensational! Many turned out for this event sponsored by the Senior class and coordinated by Jill DiDomenico, Rich Ebler, Frank Principe and Dawn Darmante. Many others helped out and quite a few performed. Some highlights of the show consisted of Janice Maida singing “I Have To Say I Love You In A Song ’ Doreen Solera singing You Light Up My Life ’ and Frank Principe singing Danny's Song” which received a standing ovation. Many bands added their talents to the show. Starship played Freebird” in memory of Lynrd Skynrd, The Southern Stills Band played “Twenty-Four Hours and were called back for an encore. A band made up of Peter Sholl, John Hughs, Rich Ebler, Angie Smith, Kevin McPhearson, Steve Finkelstein and Keith Blake performed some jazz rock music. Several songs were dedications, such as Mark Robinson’s own composition called “Soon,” dedicated to some- one special in the audience. Many, many others performed, all deserving much credit. In the middle of the show a loud cheer erupted. The soccer team came running down the aisles holding a trophy, announcing their victory as the North Shore champs. The night was indeed memorable and colorful as are all our memories in our school’s prism. Making beautiful music together. images 23 The Battle Of The Talents Lauren during her award winning performance. John Leach, the sophomore president gets involved On Friday evening, February third, through the efforts of the Sophomore and Junior classes, Hicksville High School presented “The Battle of the Talents.” The curtain was raised at 7:30, and the show began with a warm welcome extended by the M.C.’s, junior Brian Colo- suono, and sophomore John Leach. The show consisted of various musical acts; bands and individuals. An extra added surprise was displayed at the beginning of the second act, when Hicksville High's famous “unknown students,” made one of their rare, yet hilarious appearances. At the close of the show the vice-presidents of the sopho- more and junior classes presented a trophy for “Best Indi vidual Act,” to Lauren Burwasser, for her superb job of sing ing “Well that’s the Way I Always Heard It Should Be” while accompanying herself on the piano. The Black Magic Band was then awarded a trophy from the Sophomore and Junior class presidents for “Best Group Act.” Erik Paulsen playing up a storm. images 25 The Times Of Your Life A sparkling finale from the 70’s. Sam in a pensive mood during Impromptu 26 images Ins and Outs with Alan and Janice. This year's Variety Show put on by Mr. Crucilla and the International Thespian Troupe 2125 was entitled “The Times Of Your Life. The show was made up of memorable songs from the 40's, 50’s, 60’s and the 70s. There was a little bit of everything, from a haunting “Old Devil Moon to a lively “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy ’ with everything in between. Other numbers included a hilarious “Teenage sonata, a vibrant “Hard Days Night, and a moody “Piano Man. Besides the songs, the choreography by Lynn Caha Ian and Eileen Maraldo was well-timed and beautiful to see. There were two skits to balance the variety, the funny and enjoyable “Ins and Outs and the controversial but well-han- dled “Impromptu. Student Director, Marcy Kammerman and Stage Manager Dan Notov helped Mr. Crucilla put on a spectacular show. Mr. Arnold and his pit band aided the cast with their talented music. Many were to be given credit for Variety ’77. Much of the credit belongs to the talented cast and diligent crews, all of whom worked together to produce a successful show, Vari ety '11. Sing us a song, Pete. Can you feel a brand new day? images 27 The Gong Show Where can you go on a Friday night to have a great time, hears lots of laughter, see such favorites as “Gene- Gene,” “Chucky Baby,” and “The Worms?” Where else but the Gong Show? On Friday, March 3, the Student Government of H.H.S. presented the second annual Gong Show. Due to high appraisals and memories of last year’s show, a large and enthusiastic audience attended and, at times par- ticipated in the show. Mrs. Herral, Mr. Paisner, and Mr. O’Doherty were the judges for the eve- ning. They greatly contributed to the shows success through their jokes and straight lines to the host. Rich Ebler. “The Happy Housewives,” and “The Honeymooners” tied for first place, each receiving a thirty point score. Under the judges decision the “Honeymooners” were awarded the first prize of $54.36.

I can't believe you said that! 30 images Well, you don't have to scream about it, Scott. Gina and Marcy go their separate ways. On March 16, 17, and 18 the Hicksville High School Thes- pian Society Troupe 2125 presented The Birds and the Bees. The play was a comedy revolving around a mother who had three children. She divorced her husband and remarries not telling the kids. Gina Siracusa played the mother and Scott Goldstein was the man whom she remar- ried. Mr. J. V. Crucilla was the director and Lynn Cahalan was the Student Director. The cast consisted of Scott Goldstein, Gina Siracusa, Lauren Burwasser, Marcy Kammerman, Ber- nadette Crucilla, Mike Tester, Jackie Samuels, Joyce Shoen- baum. Rose Brophy, Alan Shepski, Jeff Gill and Brian Clancy. This cast rehearsed every day making the play a smash. images 31 Who's the new guy, Gina? 'Tis the season to be jolly. High School Of The Year Happiness is a balloon. High School of the Year was an experience for all those involved. Students put on a Christmas show at a children’s center on New South Rd. in Hicksville. As they told stories, sang songs and made enough noise to bring the roof down, the kids went ecstatic! “The gang,” better known as a “mini- stagehand ' featured John “Lester” Hughes and Martin Schneider on horns, Lauren Burwasser, our star vocalist and all the other crazy selves. How could we forget Santa Pan etta, who incidentally didn’t need to wear a pillow for his Santa outfit? One particular instance that will stick in their minds is the “candy-cane ceremony.” Candy canes were passed out to all the kids and somehow they managed to cover their entire bodies with sugar from the candy canes. One little boy bathed in wet candy and loved every minute of it. Kevin Mac- Pherson was glad he didn’t have to wash him off. Other schools may have participated in High school of the Year but they didn’t have the enthusiasm of the Class of 78! Making people happy. images 33 . . .

It was one of the nights we will remember forever. It was the sort of night when you wanted to stand up and cheer. The evening began quietly enough, the host and hostess, Mike Hodkinson and Wendy Andrews, welcomed the crowd. They began to introduce the many notables in our school who would be giving the awards. All the winners proudly accepted, with or with- out their shirts on. Songs were sung beautifully, more so because of the feeling behind them. The band was exceptional that night, which was not surprising, for that night everything seemed exceptional. Mike Hodkinson dedicated the triumphant song “Looks Like We Made It” to our Class of '78. Anything could have happened that night, and did. The “Unknown Students” and the “Old Woman” made several hilari- ous appearances. Two “Unknown Students” did a comedy act, luckily for them they were unknown. Special awards were given out. One to Mr. Paisner, for being a class advisor and our friend. Another for the top cookie sellers. Finally one to the Hicksville Alumni Association for the worst tastes in floats. Yes, the night was a success. It ended with the most spirited male and female, Rich Panetta and Leslie Castro leading a cheer. But if that wasn't enough, the last formal act of this memorable night was the touching song “The Times of Your Life” being sung with, overhead, the immortal words written — “The Class of '78 Lives on! Just • Beautiful Janice! 36 images Sophomores And The Sophomore class put its very best foot forward in the senior high school. As rumours have it, sophomores began selling candy the first day of school. Whatever the case may be, they made a great impression for themselves. Contribut- ing to the jealousy of the junior and senior classes, their vic- torious homecoming float, “Star Wars,” will go down in Hicksville’s history. The sophomores made a combined effort with the juniors to present “Battle of the Talents.” This evening featured something for everyone, ranging from folk music to hard rock. Unfortunately, the class also had its disappointments. These included a vanishing executive board and a dance cancelled due to “lack of interest but not effort.” However, the sophomore class has proudly accom- plished a great deal and will certainly continue to do so through the years at Hicksville High.

The Junior class Homecoming Day float. This year's Junior class did a turnabout from the apathy of last year. Early in the fall they had a cookie sale and raised lots of money for the class. Many Juniors participated in this successful fund raiser. Along with the Sophomores, the Jun- iors co-sponsored The Battle of the Talents ’ another suc- cessful event. March was the climax of the year for the Jun- iors with class rings arriving on the twenty-first and the class’ first formal, Just the Way You Are” on the thirty-first. The class of '79 is looking forward to an even better senior year. images 39 he Senior Class Mr. Paisner and the Senior class officers: Wendy Andrews, Kevin MacPherson, Mike Hod- kinson, and Rich Panetta. What are Seniors? Besides being the ones who graduate this year. Seniors are what all Sophomores and Juniors yearn to be. How do you get to be a Senior? You go through two years of rugged training. You study hard not to study, you learn to write essays on excuses for cutting, you hunt out places where you can’t be kicked out. It’s difficult but possible. We did it. What do Seniors do? They look for ways to graduate early. They make the Senior trip a year long. They attend their classes frequently — in the halls, cafeterias, pizza place, parking lot, etc. They learn how to put down Sophomores and Juniors. They pray for driver ed. but don’t want to go. What do you have to look forward to as a Senior? A fantas tically fun year of wanting to leave but being afraid to go. The float that should have won. 40 images String Of Pearls Bobby socks, saddle shoes, class rings, forties and fifties music and dancing highlighted the evening of March 11,1978: the String of Pearls dance. Many par ents, teachers, and administrators enjoyed a pleasant evening dancing and eating the refreshments made by the waiters and waitresses, students of Hicksville High. Stage Band, conducted by Mr. Abt, set the mood with tunes such as “Satin Doll” and “In the Mood.” Lauren Burwasser beautifully sang a variety of tunes from the Big Band Era such as “Pennies From Heaven” and It’s Been a Long, Long Time.” A number of dance contests were held including the Fox Trot, Rhumba, Jitterbug and all-around dancing couple. Two of the judges were Mr. Rusch and Sylvia Alimena who were great at tapping people on the shoulder. The Pearl Drops, a group of twelve girls sang swing- ing tunes such as “Gee I Jive” which set feet tapping. Organized by Mr. Buttice, Gina Siracusa and Sylvia Alimena the evening was certainly an enjoyable one for all who worked so hard to make it a success. images 41 Welcome to Foreign Language! The Foreign Language clubs in Hicksville hold their meetings after school. They each have their own individual charac- teristics, but they all exist to further student interest in language. In April the clubs joined together and held their annual International Ban- quet at the Sons of Liberty Hall. The guest musical group, La Tuna, provided the musical entertainment along with a small group of Hicksville students. The foods from Italy, France, Spain, and Germany were enjoyed by parents, faculty, and students alike. Aside from working on the banquet, and fundraising, the French club vis- ited a vineyard in Cutchogue in December, and went to the city in the spring. We may be small, but it’s quality, not quantity, that counts!” says their president Denise Desimone. Their motto? Nous pensons; done, nous som- mes!” The “Societe Honoraire de Francais” (French Honor Society), a small group whose purpose is to “further interest in the French culture and encourage the study of French.” In December, on a bitter cold windy Satur- day, a group of Society members took a trip into the city. They thoroughly enjoyed the festive atmosphere which is present in the city at Christmas time. Their motto, which suits their purpose, is: “L’homme qui parle deux langues vaut deux hommes.” “We knew you were short, Mr. Gentile, but The Gift Of Language FRENCH CLUB: Adviser: Mr Gentile, President: Denise Desimone; Vice-Pres.: Jean Hubbs, Doris Muller; Secretary: Patricia Healey, Treasurer: Michele Harvey; Student Gov’t.

The goal of the Spanish club is to spread the Hispanic cul- ture and to help around the community. The club has been active and has taken trips to the Cloisters, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and to Rockefeller Center to see the Boston Flamenco Ballet. The Spanish Honor Society took several trips and held an induction ceremony at the end of the year. They also had a cake sale, a candy sale and a car wash to raise money. The Latin Club combines “enhancing the study of Latin and furthering the appreciation for the Roman civilization and its contributions” with having fun. Their motto is: Sem- perqad maiora. The Italian club and “Big G” (president Gina Siracusa) worked closely with the Sons of Italy in Hicksville. They marched with them in the Columbus day parade. They have gone to Little Italy and have helped tremendously on the International Banquet. Their purpose is to share their Italian heritage with those around them.

The Library Club had several fund raisings — a candy sale, and selling the New York Times. In January, they were off to the city to see “A Chorus Line.” In addition to fund-raising, the club members help out in the library on their free periods shelving, signing out books, and doing odd jobs in the library. Where would the school be without its office and guidance aides? These vol- unteer aides run all over the school bringing students to see their guidance counselors or the assistant principals. Students work during their free periods, or lunch period, doing odd jobs such as alphabetizing, checking out programs of different students, writing passes, sorting mail, plus other various helpful odds and ends.

In the main office. The two most community minded groups in the school are the Inter- act Club and the Volunteer Club. In order to improve conditions they went out into the community to hospitals, day care centers, and to the needy. Generosity marks these clubs as important to the school. The Volunteer Club held a Halloween party for some young children, with hats, candy, apples, and other necessary fun items. The Jones Institute benefitted from projects of both groups, to entertain the eld- erly, to help them, and to learn about their problems for a better under- standing of people. Their assistance was greatly appreciated by those who received their help. Volunteer work made a great impact on those who performed it. The principal watches over?

Into the wild gray yonder. . Good morning, Hicksville High School! Announcements were one of the many jobs of the A.V. Staff. Sometimes it takes them a little while for them to get it right, but . . . they always informed the student body about upcoming concerts, jobs, and school activities plus the usual sports results and propaganda. Among the other responsibilities of the A.V. squad were to announce the action packed plays at all the basketball and foot- ball games. They also take charge of all media presentation, films, recordings, videotape, and its machinery. Their unique AV T-shirts, jokes, wise cracks, very off-beat remarks, and other antics causes the great teamwork that keeps the school, (and the A.V. baseball team) running smoothly.

For this we have the Roundtable Club, the Health Careers club, and the Pre-Law club. This year's “new” Roundtable club combined the best of the old Roundtable and Model Congress clubs. They held many discussions on world and domestic problems, such as the Middle East, and abortion, and spread Hicksville’s name nationwide at the successful Model U N. conferences at Harvard and Georgetown University. All those who attended enjoyed the stimulat- ing debate, discussion, and excitement of representing the Ivory Coast as ambassadors. And the club attended Model Con- gresses throughout the northeast, from Connecticut to Washington, with many student congressmen. “We attempted to increase interest in world and domestic affairs by giving first-hand experience in politics, government, and discussion through Model Congresses and U.N.’s,” said David Blaszkowsky, club president. Perhaps there's a future senator or president among them? Health Careers club is “an enjoyable experience for anyone interested in a career in the health field,” as Secretary Marie Spina says. Many speakers in the health fields were brought in by the club to tell about their careers and to aid in future plan- ning. Trips were taken to Nassau County Medical Center and other facilities. The mascot is a toy pony “Cuddles” (for those into veterinary medicine). Some typically interested members. Hey. they look sharp!

Presidents Ava Bayern and Linda Tennen brought the club through a really active year of attending court sessions (even saw a murderer arraigned), and forming a jury at the Hofstra Law school mock trial. It was so realistic that at the end you worry about how many years the poor defendant will get. And for fundraising, they had a trial of their own, a sim- ulation of the Scopes Monkey trial. images 49 Faculty Advisor: Mr Kenneth McGumness; President: Barbara Gold man; Vice-President: Marie Eivers.

A Government Of, For, And By The Students An effective government is a virtue that any group can be proud of and should work for. This year’s student government was truly effective and accomplished much to improve conditions in our school and for the student body. President Barbara Gold- man was most important in its successes although she often had to ask: Will someone please write a resolution? Probably the most important accomplishment was our entry into the High School of the Year Competition. This was our first attempt and we started in a big way by sending musicians and performers to many of the health institutions in Nassau. We also made peace with the Halsey Street residents by sending student volunteers out to pick up garbage. Everyone enjoyed the Hicksville t-shirts which Barbara was able to get for student government fund-raising. They were a fad and raised the sagging morale and treasury. Finally, to supplement the exciting year, student government sent buses to the annual College Fair, and persuaded adminis- tration to provide morning food and many great dances. Hey there! ‘Uh, Mike?

Starting off the year was the Variety show, highlighting songs from the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, and the 70's. Rich Panetta and his fif- ties greasers made the audience go wild. Other scenes included Marie Eivers with It's My Party ’ a sing along with Ellen Dixon, and a film accompaniment with Let It Be. Next, a Senior play was put on, and finally the ever-successful musical. The society runs trips to Broadway shows at discount prices. (This year they’ve seen “Grease” and A Chorus Line”). They also distributed tee-shirts with a Thespian Logo. Also, cast parties are thrown after the close of each show with a live band that plays until 4 A.M. The society runs various fund-raising activities, from candy sales to car washes. All Thespian activities culminate in the Thespian dinner, a formal affair usually held at a local catering hall. It wraps up the year, and honors all former members. Then the next year’s executive board is sworn in during a beautiful candlelight ceremony. a bit of dance nr Tri-M Music is so important to modern life, that in order to encourage excellence in this art. Modern Music Masters, or Tri-M was formed. Its main purpose was “to further musical interest within the school and to form a select group of musi- cally talented students,” says President Sylvia Alimena. Tri-M performs service to the school by sponsoring recit- als at which various club members perform. Other activities during the year include a trip to the Metro- politan Opera to see the New York Philharmonic, and other culture centers to enrich their musical knowledge. At the helm.

Madrigals Under Mr. Arnold's direction, The Madrigals perform two fabulous con certs. For their winter concert, they sang “Coventry Carol,” and “Geographi- cal Fugue,” which received a tremendous response from the audience. They also sang at East Street School, and another elementary school in January. In December, they sang at the Hicksville Public Library to an audience of about fifty people. During the same month they performed at the Milleridge Inn for the Kiwanis Club. Cindy Albach concluded: “Music is the universal language, and love is the key,” which describes perfectly the theme and closeness of the Madrigals. Writing up a game plan. Louder, please.

Mr. Buttice and the High School Orchestra played beautiful music all year such as the “Nut- cracker Suite” and other classics. Concertmistress Jill DiDomenico and student conductor, Sylvia Alimena helped carry the orchestra through its good and bad times. Although they sometimes thought that the A-bomb was the only cure, they always performed with professional quality. For this, a perfect combination of strings and winds was obtained. In the Spring, a quartet chosen from the orchestra per- formed at the elementary schools. Many students from the orchestra also performed in the All-State, All-County, and local NYSSMA competitions.

Under Director Mr. Larsen, Assistant Director Mr. Abt, and Drum Majorette Sylvia Alimena, much work was done to perfect formations such as “AB,” The “Ketchup bottle,” and “MAYO.” Highlights during the year were “Star Trek,” “American Bandstand,” “Kentucky Fried Chicken,” and “Happy Days,” just to name a few. One of the most exciting events was making a commercial at Nassau Com- munity College for “Lee Myles.” They weren't chosen for the way they sounded but for the orange and black uniforms. After many long hours with Rocky Graziano in an old overheated hangar, the band was exhausted. There was a small reward though: everyone received a Lee Myles T-Shirt to remind them of this once-in-a-life- time experience. images The Joy Of Singing One of the best ways to brighten up a day is to sing, and at H.H.S. the best way to do that is to join one of the four cho- ruses, all under the direction of the crazy and lovable Mr. Arnold. The Sophomore girls chorus is a relatively small group of ninety girls. But don't let numbers surprise you! Those girls have a huge amount of energy and sound when they’re put to work. A few songs from their winter concert were “Wol- cum Yule,” and “time in a Bottle.” The Sophomore Mixed Chorus was well divided between male and female and all vocal ranges. The winter concert introduced a few very talented soloists, and songs such as “Sweet Sunny.” SOPHOMORE GIRLS: Director: Mr Arnold: Pamela Abrams, Marian Allotta, Leslie Anstey.

The Junior-Senior Girls chorus, with their wine-colored skirts and beautilul voices, put on two great shows. Talking about talent, they even made their own skirts for the performances! For the Christmas concert they sang Scarborough Fair, and three pieces from The Me Nobody Knows. Chorale consists of some of the most advanced singers in the High School. Wearing formal black and white, they sang Hora, and In The Beginning, a musical experiment, for the Christmas concert. Alumni and music faculty, along with the Chorale, sang the Alleiulla, and everybody concluded the concert by singing holiday songs and carols. Between the silly warmups, the hard work, and the interesting songs, it was clearly a fun and profitable year for all involved. Gotcha! images 59 Hear The Bands Concert band is a large and diverse band consisting of musical sopho- mores, juniors, and seniors. Mr. Don- ald Larsen, the director, drills and encourages them to perform well. As one member said, “I really like it and I’m learning alot, too.” The band was very active this year. They put on two concerts, one in December with songs such as “the Hermitage,” and “three Ayres From Gloucester, and performed another in the spring. Before Christmas the members sold colorful candles in order to raise enough money to go away in the spring. It was successful, and allowed them to perform for other schools. Toot, toot. . .

Love that nose! “Your deadlines are in one hour “Our goal is to provide the students with an interesting and informative newspaper,” says Dot Bickard, editor-in-chief of the Comet newspaper. Well, that’s exactly what the newspaper staff has accomplished. Between those eleven incredible editors and staff, they’ve made this year something special. Articles of all kinds have appeared in the paper, enough to satisfy all tastes. Student Government updates, poetry, reviews, and advice were some of the types published. Above all, the Comet is most famous for the way they phrase things in funny and sarcas- tic ways. The hardworking staff cooperates well, in order to make it more realistic and enjoyable. Can you forget a paper with an “Alone Again” application to find the guy or gal of your dreams? 62 images It Takes All Kinds Hicksville High school also has its share of, uh, “less serious groups — just alot of fun, and definitely a change of pace.

Just about every weekend from December to March they sent out a group, regardless of weather. Over the longer vacations, they had trips for up to two weeks, and at prices a student could afford. They went to places such as Bel- layre, Big Vanilla and Great Gorge. All those who paid their membership dues had a great time on the slopes improving their skills. The H.H.S. Math Team had one of its best years. In Competitions, they faced the best from JFK and Bethpage. This year there were two teams, A and B, and both did very well. Strangely enough. Team B did better than Team A. Obviously, somebody slipped up on a little probability. As of mid year, they had answered more questions and in a higher place than A. If you are interested in movies, then you were a member of Cinematography. During the year they produced a science-fiction mystery film, with students as both cast and crew.

This year, both the Var- sity and Junior Varsity squads had very good seasons. The opener, the Homecom ing game played on Saturday, October 29, before an enthusiastic Hicksville crowd, pitted the Hicksville Comets against the Massapequa team. Responding to the cheers of the crowd, the Comets went on to victory. A victorious Homecoming game only served as a beginning point for the football team. They went on to have a very successful season under the expert coaching of Coaches Grantham and Quattrini. Cheering the Comets to victory! Leslie and Co-Captain Chris Pfeiffer. The cheerleaders, led by Leslie Castro and Chris Pfeiffer, enlivened the Comet’s football and basketball games. They cheered throughout the games along the sidelines and on the court during time-outs in basketball games. The cheerleaders gave incentive to the players and spirit to the crowd.

The members of this team are to be congratulated for demanding sport. It is a challenging game and very exciting to watch. Unfortunately, however, because of the necessity of the team to travel, hockey does not have a very great following in Hicksville. The Hockey team is looking forward to a strong season next year with many of the team returning. The girl’s bowling team had a successful season. Of six teams (five other teams and themselves), var- sity came in third and junior varsity came in first. The coach.

You will ask yourselves what was really important? What do you remember most? The answer will be: the people! Your classmates, your friends, and some of your teachers. You will remember these people because it is in these that you will find yourselves, a part of the story of your lives. For history is the story of people, and what they did together. — Mr. John Pitrelli Mr. Lawrence Olvany, t Mr. John Pitrelli Assistant Principal Assistant Principal 116 luminaries School Administration I wish to congratulate the Class of 1978 on your graduation from Hicksville High School.

Look around you. How many people in your class seem to be working toward something? How about you-are you just letting it all happen, and vaguely hoping that things will work out well for you, or are you trying to exercise some control over your life? Think about the happiest, most suc- cessful men and women you know, or have heard about How many of them do you think got there just waiting to get lucky? Sure, luck has a lot to do with it. But there's a lot of truth in the famous comment: ‘The harder I worked, the luckier I got. You’ve got to be ready for luck when it happens. You can’t plan your life step by step. (What a drag it would be, if you could.) But you can decide what you really care about. Not what other people say is important, but what you, privately, know is important -for you. Don’t talk about it, don’t try to hook your friends on it, but keep our eye on it-particularly when you have a decision to make. You earn a little extra spending money. Decision: Do you spend it just because it's there-even though there’s nothing you really want to spend it on -or do you save it so you'll be ready when something important comes along? Luck. An opportunity. An idea. A chance at what you really care about. Look around you again. How many in your class have savings accounts? How many know how easy it is to start one? (You can do it by mail, with as little as $1 - one dollar - and every dollar you save will be worth more, a lot more, when you need it for something you care about.) Most young people think that banks are big, rich, cold, stone buildings run by big, rich, stone-cold bankers Wrong. Banks exist to help people-rich people, poor people and people just starting out. We're here to help you - with a savings account, a student loan for college, a free checking account, money to buy a house or to improve your home, low cost life insurance, a retirement fund for later on. When you’re 18 or 20, these things seem a long way off. But the older you get, the faster they come. And the sooner you start getting ready for them, the luckier you’ll be. That’s a fact.

Looking around and asking why. Realizing it’s time to grow up, Time to leave. Not wanting to go, Wanting only to stay a few minutes longer. Stopping for an endless moment in time — Remembering: Seeing ourselves in others. Our first time walking these halls With wide open eyes, taking everything in. Taking that first step, that first fall Not knowing what really to expect. Sometimes getting a little disappointed, A little discouraged; But fighting against it and finding everything you set out to find. It was hard, but you did it. We all did it. We found friends, made lives for ourselves, Even passed our courses. Yes, memories; Later on, warming our hearts when we’re lonely. Hurting a little now. But we have to grow up, We have to leave. We can’t ever go back.
