Parodied from W. Shakespeare y if - - ,fr MR. EUGENE E. HALLENBECK Acting Principal We Dedicate the 1943 Treasure Chest Fortunate indeed is the school which has a man who combines iustice with humor, patience with decision, good council with the ability to work unstintingly. Fortunate also are the students who have been enriched by contacts with such a personality, whose school life has gained significance through his activities in their behalf. It is because we realize that our school possesses such a man, because we feel that, as students, we have known such an administrator, that we dedicate the 1943 Treasure Chest to our Acting Supervising Principal, Mr. Eugene E. Hallenbeck. I .L orffa 2 cz! nu,41uu-'-'- ,md . .mf K ' li 1 j-A4kf'5?f?f1 1 T6 11 f:7f:i51fiiii5iS - i A ' ffef.-fi - 'PEZ - ,.:ff W 1 M25 4:1 ggasssm - .-Simi H Q. .fi',i? ,1 .

Member of the National Senior Honor Society, Speaker of the House of Representa- tives, star in football and track, he was iust the type to fill the role of Senior Class President. His understudy-Bill Kampfer. Called upon on short notice to take over the leadership, Bill showed that he could iump from vice-president to president with the ability and energy he had already shown as a member of the wrestling team and the National Senior Honor Society. The box office accounts and the money 'were in .Herb Zoerner's capable hands. Herb is known as a football and wrestling star. Jimmy Thompson, elected vice-president when Bill took over the president's duties, was already-distinguished as a wrestler and a member of the House of Rpresentatives. Faculty Adviser ln addition to teaching social studies and business sub- iects, Mr. Fell, our class adviser, has worked very indus- triously to project his democratic ideals while dealing with the students. He is always energetically willing to aid with our class activities, and patiently collects funds to finance us. .ry Candy Managers Sweets to'the sweet . . . and to the rest of us as well, for the brown candy stand was a familiar sight at football games, and the super-salesmen who prowled the halls in the pre-ration days supplied the most demanding appetites with a variety of deli- cacies. Proving their faithfulness to the Senior Class, Babette Fay and Frank Uihlein worked tirelessly filling and distributing the boxes of supplies, keeping accounts, and establishing the second-floor book room as the source of sweetness. Babette Fay Frank Uhlein Dance Chairmen Harry Hughes, Audrey Meyer, Dance Chairmen Come and Trip lt As We Go The curtain rose on our class activities last June, disclosing the nautical splenclors of our Junior Prom. Up the gangplank to a sea- going ballroom decked with fishnets and life preservers, we passed. These atmospheric touches were supplied by Frances Dubick and Mildred Monat, with a score of other assiduous workers. The scene for the second dance was autumnal-corn-husks, pumpkins, and the Jack-o-lantern scarecrow. And-as much fun, though less formal than those of previous years-the Senior Ball, a winter carnival scene created by Bob Dobson and Gloria Dinger with their committees, was ruled by the king and -queen of the North Pole, Wee Willie Williamson and Dot Kumpa.

In their hands is the responsibility' of selecting our teachers and shaping the policy of our school. This trusteeship is a great task, and the members of the Board of Education give freely of their own time in the service of our school. We take this opportunity in our Treasure Chest , of expressing our deep appreciation of their indetatigable efforts on our part. Time: The Board of Education meets the first Monday of every month Place: around the long time in Mr. Hallenbeck's inner otifice, in order to consider Purpose: the problems and bills that must be met to keep the school running smoothly. Note: Let us also remember that among these directors, there are several charter mem- bers of that first Board of Education to whose eftorts, in conjunction with Mr. Mep- ham's, we owe the existence of the Wellington C. Mepham High School. Encore: We wish to give our hearty appreciation to the present members in the form of three cheers for these above all.

Hallenbeck, the impresario of the school for this year, has supervised, directed, and administered the activities of a cast of hundreds of pupils, teachers, and staff. Assuming the position of supervising principal during the absence of Mr. Calhoun, he has met the changing and challenging times with a clear and calm philosophy which is reflected in the successful record of his administration. fin MR. HERMAN TENNANT Acting Assistant Principal Having received excellent experience in solving intricate problems in mathematics, Mr. Herman A. Tennant makes fair but firm decisions in settling complicated situations which arise in his position as acting assistant principal. The courteous, understanding manner in which he executes his duties is appreciated by both students and teachers. MR. LESTER RECKTENWALD Student Personnel Director At no time is the importance of a guidance counselor more evident than during a period of turbulence. Mr. Lester N. Recktenwald, a recent and welcome arrival, devotes to the guidance of the pupils his time, experience, and ideas. Particularly have the senior boys cause to be grateful to him because of the pre-induction information he has provided. .,' 1 1, . i ,... ' ,, . . -f I MR. KLECAK M555 PARK MRS.

Perhaps there may appear to be a necessarily great contrast between my former experiences as your supervising principal, and those of the recent months spent as supervisor of radio operating at the Army air ?orces Radio lnstructors School at St. Louis University. lt is true that there have been some notable differences. Gathered at St. Louis University from all over the country were adults, culled from various occupational fields, but fundamentally alike in their wholehearted desire to serve their country as instructors of radio operating or of radio mechanics in the army air corps schools. With an average registration of l2OO at all times, each Wednesday saw a graduating classy each Thursday, an entering group. The enervat- ing speed with which a normal eighteen months' course had to be mastered in twelve weeks, the vast differences in.the students' past training and environment, the possible awkwardness ln the sharing of authority by both military and civilian personnel -- all these factors made even more vitally necessary the immediate engendering of some centralizing and motivating force. lndeed, since that far-away October day of bidding farewell to Mepham High, these varied experiences have implanted the more force- fully in my mind one fundamental thanx, that the only real achievement is attained through exalting the motives of energetic service and those natural rewards described as inner satisfaction, moreover, increasingly each day has come the realization that the basic spirit determining the efficacy of service in any field -- be it school life, community activity, or the entire war effort -- is that potent factor called 'nwrale.' A sense of responsibility, alertness of mind, lively participation lagging enthusiasm, and the desire to utilize facts for the best in civilization -- all these are component parts morale. indeed, the very nature of the omplete mastery of his subject, no significant gap, repared N with unf - y n of the spirit, tudent c . ehension, ately p nd crew, preservatio of that sought-after present crisis demands from a s so that there will exist no lack of compr that might later spell disaster. Just as an inadequ radio operator might in an emergency cause the loss of plane a so might a poorly equipped student prove in some field of endeavor to be the fatally missing part. Keen attention and thorough work -- these are essential. as 1 leave now for six weeks of Officers Training school at Miami Beach, Florida, and then for Maxwell Field, Alabama, l carry with me happy memories of former days, together with the strong assurance that Mepham students will exert themselves to the utmost to serve in this challenging world.

Gard- ner, who is serving his country as a lieutenant fi. g.J in the United States Navy. From Greenport where he was Director of Athletics, Coach Tuthill installed a tricky Y formation which shifted into a single wing. A long trip to Riverhead resulted in a scoreless tie. ln a Water Bucket thriller with Sewanhaka, Vic Pantesco-veteran end-was put out of action with a knee iniury. Although the Pirates made a gal- lant stand against Freeport's undefeated eleven, Mepham was overcome 'by the onslaught of Red Devil power near the end of the game. With a yard to go for a score Mepham failed to tally and had to be satisfied with a 7-7 deadlock in the fight with Oceanside, also the Bucs found it hard to cope with a Great Neck passing offense and a Hicksville running attack. Despite playing on even terms our boys were turned back by a brilliant pass- ing combination of the unbeaten Valley Stream foe. ln his initial year of football Wilmer Williamsen was the mainstay of the Pirate forward wall, Harry Hughes sparked the defense, thereby earning his third varsity football letter. Although the Corsairs had an unfortunate season, Frank Brust, Herb Zoer- ner, and Johnny Soncini also showed up as individual stars, while Bernie Schnabel, manager, starred be- hind the scenes.

Undefeated all fall, our hill-and-dalers were finally overcome in the Nationals. The Bucs won their first victory over Riverhead, as Mc- Lean led the pack home. After galloping past the teams of Sewanhaka and Oceanside, Mepham then defeated LaSalle, taking seven of the first eight positions. The Pirates again won their own Invitation Meet, and prepared for the National Interscholastic Cross-Country Championship competition by defeating Central. At the National meet, the boys turned in an impressive exhibition by annexing third place among the ranking eastern schools, McLean, Caldwell, Kelly, Hutton, and Poirot all placed to assure additional honors for Mepham. With no veterans to count on, Coach Don Large engi- neered our athletes through a successful season, with the Pirates loping home to win every dual meet. Left to Right-J. Berti, Manager, A.

Under Coach Donald C. Large, the Pirate grapplers rolled over opponents in dual competition, always win- ning eight or more bouts. The Mepham Invitation Meet saw the Buc matmen take the team trophy with honors. Individual champions were Dick Helf, Joe Golego, Henry Sheffield, Bob Betzig, Bill Kampfer, and Herb Zoerner. Dick Covell, Ed Broun, Jim Thompson, and Harry Blanken were South Shore champs, while Golego, Kampfer, and Zoerner repeated for titles, Sheffield sharing the title' in the T34-pound class. .sf Basketball at S Ea i s l Q 1 5 A W , x nm lb 6 -.

'Victim in only one of seven tilts .at home, the inability ot the Pi- rates to win games away from Mepham's court caused them to have only fair results. The Bucs notched ten triumphs and were set back on seven occasions. Splitting the cords for 173 points, Gerry Stahurski smashed the school scoring mark formerly held by Bill Clausen, while Stan Stahurski and Bob Tholfsen also accounted for many points. Vic Pantesco, another de- pendable cager, was handicapped early in the season by a knee iniury which cut him off from the activities of the team. 'S A tu A Mk!

When an extra stump was needed, someone invariably suggested felling a tree-the Dragoon Guards kept the cast hoping they would someday stay in step-Jimmy left the maidens sighing over his cold attitude toward their proffered love ' f I l 'thout a ration -Rose fed her lover butter by the tablespoon u wi stampj-Bill left everyone wondering how he got his voice out of his shoes after the final curtain.

The work of the House this year has been concerned with the war effort. Though War Stamp Day became a Wednesday habit to Mepham students, the House members did the necessary logging of people's memories on Tuesdays. Again the House of 'Rep- resentatives conducted the annual Junior Red Cross cam- paign for memberships, and in this way was the means of gaining students' aid for the war effort. The members of this group are elected representatives of each home room, charged with the responsibility of bringing to the attention of the House any topic suggested by their fellow students. Should the representative be un- able to attend a meeting, the home room secretary acts as alternate. Under the leadership of Harry Hughes and Bill Kampfer, Speakers, and guided by Mr. Lester N. Reck- tenwald and Mr. John W. Carr, the House of Representa- tives has again played its part with skill and efficiency. ???' sow: mmf Treasure Chest, tunt Mr. rfeaefwk 5 Treasure Chest Staff HGHY Pitler I .- ............................................

The staff of the Treasure Chest found itself running around gath- e..ng 'props', setting scenes, getting publicity, while the stars worried about their roles, With those accomplishments duly recorded in the prompt book, they went on to write letters to teachers in the service, devise a class will, decide on a cartoon, or lure a subscription from a possible purchaser. The staff started off industriously under Mr. Frederick H. Stunt, and after his departure for the Navy, shifted to working with Miss Anne Williams, Miss Felice Gunther, Miss Agnes Berwind, Miss Ruth Adams, and Mr. Thomas Fell. Under Harry Pitler and Frances Dubick's leader- ship, they have seen an idea grow into the reality of this volume which they offer saying, For us and for our 'tragedy' Here stooping to your clemency We beg your hearing patiently. fs ..., Buccaneer Buccaneer Editors 1 ff 4.-ofixgg Seated-Left to Right-R.

To occasion this praise-they have participated in many social :ctivities such as playing at the U. S. O. Dances in Hempstead, Girls' Sport Night, the Varsity M Banquet, and the Senior Play.

Randall The Playfs the Thing Skull and Bones, the dramatic society of Mepham, attracts many students, not only those with aflare for acting, but those as well who are intrigued by grease paint, inclined to carpentry or advertising, interested in clothes, and intrigued by lighting eFfects, for drama is a broader subject than most people realize. Directed by Mr. Idwal Jones, acting is the prime interest of the group, but make-up, costuming, directing, staging, lighting, andladvertising are also essentials for a successful production. The transtormingof the make-up room into a Green Room, or social room, was the main interest of Skull and Bones. In spite of dilificulties caused by the war, considerable progress has been.evidenced in ma-king this room a comfortable meeting hall for the members. The usual accomplishments of Skull and Bones, besides activities at meetings, include the production of one full length play, one or more assembly programs, and at least one visit to a Broadway production.

The rest is up to you. Go to it! This exclamation was Mr. Idwal R. Jones' bombshell which raised the curtain on Second Childhood on the evening of November 19, 1942. The radical Professor Relyea, Martin Ferkin, and his pupil, Phil Stanton, are experi- menting on the Elixir of Youth. Sylvia Relyea, otherwise known as Frances Merklein, is in love with Phil-Harry Pitler to the students. Because their alfection is to be kept a secret, they have a difficult time with Auntie, Arline Stockton, who makes it her habit to interrupt their scenes. The guinea pig of the experimentation is General Braddock, in order to portray the General, Bill Hesse transformed himself from one of the student body to a bald-headed old gentleman of sixty-five. Members of an extremely capable supporting cast included Florence Shapiro, Leonard Flanagan, Ruth Woodrolfe, and James McConnell. Working unstintingly to the end, the production staff compromised Larry Andrews, stage manager, assisted by Frank Gangel and George Brehm, properties, Bob Greiner, makeup, Audrey Meyer, prompter, Audrey Schmidt, and business manager, Bert Weinblatt. 4,,, Graphic Arts L . eff to RlghfQR Warfield G.

Home Economics Club Bearing in mind that well begun is half done , the Home Economics Club this year inaugurated its program under the direction of Miss Yvonne Ashley and Miss Lucy Don- niacuo, The industrious members have pre- pared stupes fcloths dipped in medicants for applications to soresl, stupe ringers, stretchers, and bedroom slippers for the Nas- sau County Junior Red Cross, and for the servicemen, these girls have made ditty bags. A theater party proved a gala occa- sion, and the club feels that it has fulfilled its aims of helping the girls to improve their general appearance and of providing a source of relaxation for them.
