Mattituck High School - Reflector Yearbook (Mattituck, NY)

Page 6 text:

The Ciass of 1957 dedicates this book to the maintenance crew of Mattituck High School. Since our present building was completed 21 long years ago, the appearance and cleanliness of the edifice has been the responsibility of Gordon Cox, Herbert Young, John Haas, and Harry Charkow, our custodians. They are on call thoughout the day and on nights when the school is open to public use. When they report for work early each morning they have no idea what they may face as the clock ticks around measuring off their scheduled day. Mrs. Campbell may be cold, the plumbing in the girls' room may suddenly have jammed, or Mr. Garelle's pencil sharpener may need fixing. In any of these and various other complications a call will be out for a janitor. No matter what the task they may be assigned whether rigorous or dull, these select men are always quick with a joke or laugh and help to make our school life lighter by their presence in the halls. In appreciation for their many tasks above and beyond the call of Janitor to keep our school the best appearing in the vicinity, do we the Class of 57’ dedicate our yearbook. ‘Reftecbn

Dome Swahn (Literary), John Niven (Literary), Joan Sledjeski (Layout) The 1957 Reflector Staff was blessed with many varied and assorted talents. Through their combined efforts they have tried to give you the best Reflector yet published. With Gen Jazombek and John Frazee leading the safari,[the staff took off through the jungle of inexperience to discover new and better ideas for the yearbook. Members of the safari included Ann Penny and Don Milowski as artists: with Bruce Carruthers, Jim Reeve, and Dorrie Swahn as official historians. The photographic detail was made up of Fred Kraus and Don Hildesheim in cooperation with the National School Photography Studios. Business administration and leg-work were handled by Patricia Simchick Dick Florence. George Swahn and Henry Lutz. The plan of attack was routed by Marie Siemerling and Joan Sledjeski with the help of the guide for the expedition, the ferocious headhunter, Ed Clingen. The first hedge-row that snagged the convoy was the task of assemb- ling photographic likenesses of the subjects under observation in this book. With a sudden spurt of genius the literary staff launched a counter- attack against our bitter enemy time and the Art Committee paced them steadily. Acting as reconnaissance to solicit funds from the local natives the Business Staff showed their talent for salesmanship. However, the greatest fete of all was to come, that was to find our contact behind enemy lines Good Ole Wes , foreman at the Print Shop, so that he could print our Reflector. We sincerely hope that the ardent work of our staff has not been in vain and that you will enjoy our 1957 Reflector.
