THE SIGNET NINETEEN FDHTY-SEVEN published by The Senior Class of MI1VEDLA HIGH SCHOOL editor Emily Hildehraodt associate editors Fraok Keodall Dorothy Beatty usiness oiaoager Hita Collios DEDICATION The senior class of 1947 dedicates the Signet to the men from Mineola High School who have given their lives in the recent fight to preserve democracy. They paid the supreme sacrifice that we might continue to reap the benefits of a free life. As we prepare to make our way into the world of the future let us ever be mindful of the price they paid to main- tain our way of life. AP Photo from USMC Filos Reading left to right: Dr. Frank E.

BOARD DF EDUCATION At the head of the local school systems in New York State there is a body of men known as the Board of Education. It is the duty of these men to keep the scholastic rating of the schools under their jurisdiction up to the standards of the state. It is their responsibility also to plan the new courses necessary for the education of citizens of tomorrow. Few people realize how much work this really requires. For in this scien- tific world of today, the people need a dif- ferent kind of education from what was needed by their forefathers. This group of men must work with un- flagging enthusiasm, for it is only by their planning and work that the youths of a community receive the best advantages that can be offered in education. In the Mineola School System the Board of Education consists of some of the most public-spirited men in the community. These men are Mr. William E. Lotz, president; Mr. Chester R. Painter, vice-president; Mr. Wil- liam T. Hicks, Mr. Patrick J. Walshe and Dr. Frank E. Barnes. The classes of January and June, 1947, would like to take this opportunity to com- mend and thank the Board of Education for doing such a fine job during the years these students attended the Mineola schools. We know that they will always continue doing a superb job. 0 ADMINISTRATION Dr. Harlan B. Allen, a Ph.D. and superin- tendent of the Mineola School System, has through the years become a veritable insti- tution to Mineola students. His sincerity, friendliness and keen foresight have gained him respect from all sources. It is these qual- ities which enable him to fulfill his position to such perfection and to set the standard upon which our school system is maintained. A friend, kind, understanding—that is a candid description of Mr. Ralph L. Sloat, principal of Mineola High School. It is a mystery to everyone how Mr. Sloat can keep up with all his work and still solve problems for teen-age girls and fellows. Around his busy desk revolves the business of the school, and through his able leader- ship the school has functioned excellently. • Mr. Kenneth Terry, that tall man with a genial disposition, is the assistant principal of M. H. S. Mr. Terry is also head of the Projection Squad and the Candy Counter. To Mr. Terry falls the never-ending job of checking on the people who cut classes. Seldom does one see Mr. Terry when he isn't busy, but he always finds time to give help to troubled students. 7 ENGLISH Especially stressing a rich vocab- ulary, the English teachers instruct pupils in speaking and writing cor- rectly. They also contribute to their cultural development by introduc- ing them to line literature. Seated: Enid Paskis; Mari Redding; Marion Palmer; Marjorie Carnegie, librarian.

JANUARY SENIORS In January, 1943, a group of seventy-odd freshmen entered the portals of M. H. S. to begin their four-year career. The class organized in their sophomore year under the direction of Miss Hubbard and soon gave the Shamrock Shindig, a huge success. Numerous other dances followed: the Huba Huba Hop, football dance and the Senior Prom. All were successful. The class also sold football and basketball pencils. Their senior year arrived with Joyce Haviland as the president; Joe Solosky, vice-president; Dorothy Finken, secretary; and John Shade, treasurer. Soon the class was being measured for their caps and gowns, and they realized their stay at M. H. S. was coming to a close. Looking back, the homework and tests were forgotten, and the Class of '47 was very unwilling to leave their kingdom to future generations.

Painter JUNE SENIORS Four years ago, a group of bewildered people entered M. H. S. Like all freshmen, they went through that awkward period of adjustment. But soon the class of June 1947 made a place for itself among the many activities of the high school. Feeling a sense of responsibility and ambition, the class elected its first officers: Arthur Barnett be- came president; Donna Foley, vice-president; Gerard Thomas, treasurer; Theresa Zolezzi, secretary. Mrs. Gagliano was selected as the class advisor. In their senior year a change of administration was made. Donald Speck was chosen president; Al- exis Dzikielewski, vice-president; Albo Bua, treasurer. Theresa Zolezzi remained secretary. Some of the successful undertakings of this class were the Juke Box Jamboree, the Spring Nocturne, Nee- wolah Ecnad and the January 1946 Senior Prom. Un- der the direction of Mrs. Gagliano this class sold cards, stationery, kerchiefs and M.H.S. stickers to increase their bank account. JUNE SR. OFFICERS First Row: A. Bua, D. Speck. Second row: T.

Riordan CLASS OF JANUARY ’48 The top class following the seniors are those juniors who leave the portals of MHS in January '48. Led by their commander-in- chief, George Galluzzo, and his cabinet con- sisting of Doris Nygren, Joan Ballard, and Charles Darrell, these teen-agers have earned for themselves a reputation of being busy workers. This past term they presented the Club '48—their impression of an adolescent night club. Needless to say, throngs of dance- lovers turned out en masse. To aid their monetary supplies they unloaded pennants upon the student body. Assisted by the sale of these and the collection of semi-annual dues, they presented a gala prom for the June seniors. Following a visit from the jewelry representative in October, every advanced junior hand was bedecked with a class ring, although some chemistry stu- dents questioned the validity of the amount of gold used. From their very first meeting, this class, destined to reach a high place in the stand- ards of Mineola High School, has been on the move. CLASS OF JUNE 1948 Come to the 'Hippety Hop . The stu- dents of Mineola High who answered this call declared that the dance was one of the most successful ever held in the school. To the class of June '48 who gave the dance it was successful financially as well as so- cially. In order to raise money to finance this dance the class used booster lists. This was the first time that any class had done this. Although the class did not organize until September of 1946, they are making great progress under the able leadership of their officers and advisor. They chose as officers John Nolan, president; Betty Reuter, vice- president; Sina Hansen, secretary; Walter Hildebrandt, treasurer and as adviser Mrs. Mary Maher. The class is well represented in the school's many activities with Walter Hilde- brandt and Rod Murtha starring in the sports department, Alfred Laidman in dra- matics and many others in the music and art department who have done much to make themselves as well as their class well known. 42 SDPHDMDHES When the advanced sophomores organ- ized their class this year, they elected the following officers: Murry Hirsch, president; Joan Fraas, vice-president; Dee Petrasek, secretary; Robert Schlichting, treasurer. The beginning sophomores as well as the advanced have already shown their versa- tility with many individuals active in extra- curricular activities. FRESHMEN Each year a new contingent of freshmen arrives at Mineola High School. These stu- dents, although bewildered at first, soon fall into the routine at M.H.S. Although unorgan- ized this class constitutes an important part of the life of our school. We extend our wel- come to you, the future upper-classmen. 5 If an observer of M. H. S. would see the students diligently applying themselves to the work at hand, he could arrive at but one conclusion—an issue of the school paper, The Question Mark, had just been distab- it ed to the classes. The ? continues to play an active part in the lives of M. H. S. students. Since its beginning in 1932, it has been “providing a means by which the student body might keep in touch with the current extra-curricu- QUESTION MARK STAFF Seated: H. Huebsch. I. Graber. J.

Our paper, compiled by the student jour- nalists, is an incentive to greater student achievement. It expresses the school life of the student body in an entertaining form and has accomplished the tacit goal of co- operation and unity among the students and the faculty.

SIGNET STAFF By the time this edition of Mineola High's Signet is published, the members of the business and editorial staffs will breathe terrific sighs of relief. They will remember the busy hours spent in luring local mer- chants into buying advertising space, or how they followed students down the hall expounding the reasons why they should buy a yearbook. They will not soon forget the hours they spent writing articles, de- signing sketches, tracking down the name of the student who had only his nose or ear showing in a group picture. But the Signet staffs will realize that it was well worth the time they spent and the hard work they did in order to insure the fact that the yearbook would be a worthy reminder of the athletics, dramatics, music programs, club activities and classes, which are so much a part of every student's life. 47 STUDENT EDUNEIL Laying out the school calen- dar of events is the task of the Student Council led by George Galluzzo as president. Com- prised of the leaders of many organizations, this group, di- rected by Mr. Sloat, Miss Hub- bard and Miss Proaper, sets the dates for class activities and radio revues.

ASSEMBLY COUNCIL Necessitated by the two separate assem- blies weekly, the Assembly Council, under the guidance of Miss Jane Austen, is di- vided into two groups—one in charge of the freshman-sophomore assemblies; the other, the junior-senior group. The officers of the former are Theresa Tobin, president; Barbara Maribu, vice-president; and Gloria Thomopolus, secretary-treasurer. Ann Ny- gren, Alfred Laidman, and Joan Mark offici- ate in relative positions for the latter council. The Assembly Council meets once a week to plan and prepare assembly programs. In addition to this duty is that of making the announcements in assembly. It's the aim of the Assembly Council to develop a sense of leadership and responsibility in its mem- bers. PROJECTION liUUAIJ If you are passed, while traveling along the halls of MHS, by a fellow lugging a large heavy black box, it is natural to think of him as a member of the Projection Squad. This group of boys has showed close to two hundred reels of movies for different classrooms and assemblies. They have done this with a variety of equipment including two projectors, a film strip-projector and one of the newer additions, a balopticon, which shows non-transparent objects on a screen. To become a member a student must go through a period of apprenticeship in which he becomes familiar with the equipment. 50 SCENE FROM DATE WITH JUDY. R. Butterworth. Lower Row: S. ArbeiteL M.

DRAMATICS DEPARTMENT For all young aspiring Kit Cornells and Raymond Masseys, Mineola has its dra- matics department under the competent supervision of Miss Jane Austen. From this branch of extra-curricular ac- tivities annually comes a full-length play. This year A Date With Judy” was the se- lected production. Judy involves herself and her family in the usual adolescent troubles. A cast composed of members from our stu- dent body made it a delightful presentation. Laying down the law concerning assem- blies and their make-up is the work of the assembly council. This body, meeting be- fore the beginning of the school day, also has charge of any announcements in as- sembly. Behind them, we find the boys who keep the lights the right shade. These Stagers, as they call themselves, have com- plete control over the goings-on in the wings. Now, if at any time you feel the dramatic urge, do not neglect the opportunities offered in our own high school. 51 r J I N Mill IIEl) EHU5S The Junior Red Cross, sponsored by Miss Becken is a service club operating in the high school in co- operation with the Nassau County chapter of the American Red Cross. The activities of the group include sewing, knitting, and other handi- crafts. Occasionally, the collections of materials are made for gifts to hospitals and other institutions. Beside the work projects, the young people have an opportunity to learn the fine arts of cooperation, leadership, and wise use of leisure. First Row: P. Lewis, I. Noran. I. Gerrie, I. Manteli.

Besides selling candy during the lunch periods, they also vend their wares at basketball and football games. The profit from these sales is used for the purpose of purchas- ing athletic equipment.

Both groups gave clothes, food and toys to orphans and needy families in our com- munity, at Thanksgiving time and during the Christmas holidays. The Spanish Club sponsored by Mrs. Com- fort helps its members to become acquainted with the different customs and ideas of our southern neighbors. Officers are Marlene Tilley, president; Donna Foley, vice-presi- dent and Mary Grootegood, secretary. Under the direction of Mrs. Mary Redding, the publicity group, consisting of three girls, informs the local press on life in Mineola High. Accounts of music, athletics, scholastic and club activities are reported weekly. One of the most popular organizations of the music department is the Choristers. This group is composed of approximately 65 vocalists, chosen from students who have sung with the glee clubs at least half a year. The Choristers take part in concerts and are the main attraction in the Radio Revue. An offspring of the Choristers is the Madrigal Singers. Although relatively new to the music department, this group has be- come well known by singing frequently at functions outside of school in addition to MAIIIlIliALS its regular school activities. Another new feature of the department is the boys Octet. They made their debut at the Radio Revue, where they were enjoyed by all. Perhaps the most important of the vocal groups are the Girls and Boys Glee Clubs. It is in these that the students receive their basic vocal training. These clubs serve as stepping stones to the Choristers. They have recently become so popular that it has been necessary to offer an additional period each day to accommodate all those interested in vocal instruction. First Row: E. DeLuna, E. Meyer. R.

This versatile group plays any- thing from Grieg to Gershwin and performs at concerts, graduations and other pro- grams. A recent outgrowth of the orchestra is the String Ensemble, under the able direction of Mr. Eugene Castagna. It is composed of the better string players of the orchestra. The band, under the direction of Mr. Ken- neth Appleton, is an indispensable feature of home football games. Along with these duties they also play in concerts given by the music department. The band is assisted in their marching by the Twirlers, under the leadership of Jac- queline Bradicich. The swing section of the music depart- ment, known as the Dance Band, has been greatly improved recently by the skillful conducting of Mr. Appleton. All in all, the music department plays a major role in the life of MHS students. TWIHLERS BAND T. LaCagnin, R. Angus. R. Amodio, I. Bradicich— Drum Majorette. M. Wharton, B. Gehring, J. Getter.

VARSITY FOOTBALL As the cool winds of autumn brush past the football field, we hear the grunts and groans of hard-charging linemen and sig- nals of the backfield men as they run through intricate plays. After a month of this muscle-building work, the football squad is ready to face opponents. This past year Mineola had a high repu- tation to uphold since it held the Rutgers and Bacon trophies, the Thorpe Award and the County Championship—all from 1945. The 1946 squad consisted of Co-captains Jones and Solosky, DiSilvestro, Stovall, Eg- ger, Parillo, Remsen, Elflein, Rice, Hembach, Hamilton, Shade, Bua, Rogers, Phelon, To- mek, R. Kessler, Johnson, Lang, W. Kessler, Hogan, Munao, De Rosa, Gallagher, R. Lo- frese, J. Lofrese, Boles, Free, Barritt, Murtha, Stanton and Ferrulli. The season began with Baldwin invading the Mineola gridiron and defeating Mineola 12-7. The game was hard-fought all the way. In the second quarter Baldwin hit pay dirt by intercepting a pass and going 53 yards for a t.d. The Blue and Gold scored again in the third quarter with a pass. 60 In the fourth quarter the Ma- roons sparked an eighty-yard drive with Solosky plunging over the from the two-yard line. During the game Shade re- ceived a cut on his left eye. Gallagher suffered a knee in- jury which kept him out for the rest of the season. The Maroon and Gray was not let down by the first defeat. They bounced right back and trounced Great Neck 19-7. In the first quarter Rice threw a twenty-yard pass to Munao, who danced the remaining 15 yards for a touchdown. In the second quarter Solosky bulled over from the six. Murtha's con- version was good. Solosky scored again in the fourth quarter. Great Neck scored in the last play of the game. DiSilvestro scores the point after the touchdown in the game with Bald- win. The MHS band parades during the half. The Maroons' hard-charging line throws Freeport back for a loss. Meeting the powerful Lawrence team, Mineola battled them to a 6-6 tie. The opponents scored on an intercepted pass. In the fourth quarter Rice scored on an off-tackle play from the four-yard line. Shade's attempted conversion was blocked. The game was highlighted by Egger's thirty-three yard jaunt on a guard-around play. The line played a terrific game with rain pouring on them most of the evening. Freeport defeated Mineola 6-0. Continuing in the rut into which they had fallen, Min- eola went down before the assault of Glen Cove for the second loss in a row, the score 12-0. Then Mineola traveled to Mepham. That was a costly affair. Mepham upset Mineola 6-0 on the thing that had plagued Mineola the whole season—the intercepted pass. Star Jones received a bro- ken nose in the second quarter. Hard-driving, blocking-back Hembach suffered a blow on the head. Remsen, power- packed tackle, also missed the game. In the last game Hemp- stead lashed Mineola 26-0. The Tigers scored in the first and second quarter. The half-time score stood at 13-0. In the second half Hempstead scored twice, once on an inter- cepted pass. Even though the game was lost, the boys did the best they could. Jones and Hembach missed most of the game. The '46 team could well be called a jinx team. Injuries and hard luck tore the team apart. It can be truly said that the boys went down fighting every time: Here's hats off to a gallant team!

BOYS’ BASKETBALL It looked as if the basketball campaign of 1946-47 might have been a bright one for Mineola. Even though only three regulars were left — Solosky, Captain; Speck, Co- Captain; and Pechette—enough good mate- rial came from the J. V. to well fill- the var- sity shoes. In the opening game, Mineola lost to St. Paul's, 27-16; then we lost to Lawrence, 36- 18. The following week Hempstead defeated Mineola, 33-31. The game was decided by fouls. The boys were getting tired of losing. The next game brought Farmingdale to town. Our boys went to work on them and won, 53-34! The game was high-lighted by Fred Pechette, who scored 23 points. Roslyn was next on the card. The Hilltoppers proved too much for the Maroons. Roslyn won, 48-35. Ken Bossen tallied 13 points. The New Year brought luck to the team A win over Sea Cliff, 42-28, was the resuit of the Christmas vacation practice. West- bury won the last non-league game, 27-22. Fast-stepping Port Washington visited Mineola for the first league game. Port was out after its twenty-second consecutive win. Port led by five points at the end of the third quarter, but they pulled ahead by 15 at the fourth quarter and went on to win, 39-27. Mineola then traveled to Great Neck and won, 42-34. Nolie Stovall excelled on the re- bounds. The following week the Maroons lost to Garden City, 38-34. The Hafnermen took on Manhassett next. Mineola seemed sure to win with the halftime score at 20-13. Manhassett came back in the second half and won, 38-34. Speck paced Mineola with 12 markers. 63 The game with Manhasset was the last DATE one for Joe Solosky.

Bossen, who had 15 points, sank a foul shot to clinch the game. Although our boys had a slow start, it can be seen that, after they were settled down by the expert coaching of Mr. Hafner, they went on to play win- ning basketball. BOYS’ BASEBALL In the spring of '46 the outlook for a suc- cessful baseball season seemed good. The boys had a slow start, but when the league play started they hit their stride. Ending the league with a 6-3 won-and-lost record, Min- eola was entitled to second place. A lot of credit goes to Ken Darrell for his fine pitching performances, which brought four of the six victories. Gus Drivas led the team in batting with a .390 b.a., followed by Solosky, .310, and Wimpy” Kennedy, .291. Drivas hit four home runs during the league play. Andy Del Vecchio alternated on the mound. Opening the season against Glen Cove, Mineola took an 8-7 verdict with Darrell pitching. Darrell and Drivas homered. Moving on to Great Neck the boys dropped a close one, 3-2. The Maroons had a field day against Port Washington, de- feating them 10-8, with Solosky poling a home run. In the game against Manhasset Christ- man shut out Mineola, 6-0, with a no-hitter. Glen Cove came back and won, 7-6. Mineola then downed Garden City, 7-2, with Drivas hitting a homer. The second game against Great Neck was played during rain. It ended in a 0-0 tie, with Darrell allowing only one hit. Had the Maroons won, they would have finished in first place. Mineola took another victory over Garden City, 2-1. Meeting Manhasset and Christ- man for the second time, Darrell quieted them down to the tune of 9-3. In the last game Port was defeated, 5-3. Thus ended another baseball campaign with a highly successful season. First Row: J. Egger, W. Rice. F. Pechette, J. Shade, V. Ferrulli, G. Galluzzo. Sec- ond Row: G. Drivas. J. Flesch, A. Merritt. J.

Unlike in most sports, individual achieve- ment counts above all in track. In their first meet held at Hempstead, Mineola lost to a strong Tiger team, 60-35. The defeat was brightened by Reycroft, who walked away with the 220-yard dash. The 220. Dempsey took the 440 with the pleasing time of 54.4. At Westbury the same boys were out- standing. Davis took the 100, Dempsey the 440. Westbury won, 114-40. In a triangular meet at Garden City, John Reycroft tied the all-time record for the 220 with 22.3 seconds. The Maroon relay team captured second. First Row: E. Gleichmann. R. Henry, T. Rogers, J. Lang. H. Munao. B. Cremin. Second Row: K. Warta, W. Hildebrandt, R. Mur- tha, R. Bagno, R. Ogonowski. R.

Davis and Little took first in the high jump and broad jump, re- spectively. Moving on to Glen Cove, the boys dropped their second meet. This meet was highlighted by Daley, who look first in the 100 and 220 junior events. Davis and Stanco (G.C.) took first in the senior 100 and In another triangular meet at Great Neck, Reycroft, Davis and Dempsey excelled at their favorite events, taking first in all three of them. Gordon placed in the 880. At the North Shore Track and Field Cham- pionship, Mineola gathered 13 points with the work of Davis, Reycroft and Dempsey. The track team could have done better if they had had more runners to enter the events, but they did their best. 66 CHEERLEADERS If anyone ever wondered who those gor- geous girls with the fancy princess-style ma- roon and gray uniforms were, I'd like to in- form them. They are the Mineola cheer- leaders! Yes, through all the defeats and victories of Mineola our cheerleaders have carried on with a ready smile and their energetic cheers. Although cheering appears to be a very .glamorous job, it demands a great deal more work and time than many people re- of this fascinating squad. Once a year, upon the termination of the semester, these ardent students are given a chance to demonstrate their abilities along this line. During the weeks, prior to this important occurrence, the cheerleaders pass much of their time in- structing these anxious participants as to the motions of the more essential cheers such as 1-2-3-4 and T-E-A-M. After many hours filled with anxiety and tingling with excitement, the final decision CHEERLEADERS — Kneeling: D. Foley, M. Reyling, P. Howard, Captain; J. Pontifex. R. Collins. Standing: K. May. B. Jones. G. Thomopolous. M. Schelling. B. Maribu. E. Logan. alize. The accomplishments of the cheer- leaders are brought about only through lots of hard work and cooperation. The burden of leading this felicitous group falls on the shoulders of capable Pat How- ard; while it is under the direction of Miss Anne Gregory. The great desire of many Mineola High School girls is that of becoming a member is made. Yes, then the future cheerleaders are informed of their good fortune. The others, disappointed and dejected, resolve to do better next year. Little by little these beginners learn the tricks of the trade and become veterans at the job they we re chosen to do. Mineola certainly is proud of its cheer- leaders. 67 Kneeling: T. Kaider. E. Hildebrandt, A. Merrill. P. Jahn, R. Gaylo, D. Shaw. Standing: D. Comerma, M. McCartney. M. Merenda. I. Meissner, E.

GIRLS’ HOCKEY ARCHERY ELlJfl When the autumn leaves begin to turn, so do the hockey sticks. Yes, then the vigor- ous and relentless practice of field hockey begins. During the season, intramural games are held between the freshmen and sopho- mores, and the junors and seniors. When the season terminates, the two best teams play against each other. To each individual on the winning team is presented an honor M. This tiny emblem represents a great deal of hard work, and it is certainly well de- served. Toward the end of the season, eleven girls are chosen for the Hockey Honor team. This team competes against other schools at Adelphi College. IT'S A BULL'S-EYE!!! That is the sound that echoes through the gym at Hampton Street School every Friday afternoon when the MHS archers meet. This club is under the direction of Mr. John Waterbury, who is also the instructor. Archery is an all-year-round sport with every member of the club trying each week to get the highest score possible. There are several tournaments. The Archery Club is proud of its members who have entered these as Mineola has done exceptionally fine and several members have won cups and prizes. Archery letters are presented at a dinner which tops the year. GIRLS’ BASKETBALL VOLLEYBALL After many vicious weeks of volleyball have passed, basketball season begins. Many anxious participants can be seen vig- orously running back and forth in this ex- citing game. These students apply them- selves whole-heartedly and soon become very dexterous in manipulating the ball. On Tuesdays the juniors and seniors match their ability against one another; whereas on Thursdays the freshmen and sophomores do likewise. Upon the termination of basket- ball season, the most distinguished team representing the juniors and seniors plays against the most prominent sophomore and freshman team. The winning team is pre- sented with an M , which verifies that they are the best team in the girls' intra-mural sports. As the cold weather sets in and hockey season comes to an end, volleyball becomes the favorite sport of the girls around the gym. Many famous iterations such as Watch that base line or Use your netman, girls, etc., can be heard coming from Miss Greg- ory or Miss Freund. Strident and lusty shrieks echo through the gymnasium illus- trating how wholeheartedly the girls par- ticipate in this energetic sport. This year's play-day did not result in com- plete victory for the Mineola girls. They suf- fered their first defeat in eleven years. Yes, Lynbrook finally vanquished the formidable nine of Mineola by an overwhelming score of 12-4. Although Mineola lost to Lynbrook, we subdued Roslyn and Sewanaka. First Row: R. Cohen, R. Collins.

The G. A. A., which was organized over thirteen years ago, by Miss Anne Gregory, is one of the largest clubs in high school. In order to secure membership in this in- teresting organization, a girl must secure 600 credits. One hundred fifty of these must be procured in after school sports. These may be attained by participating in such games as hockey, volleyball, baseball, and badminton. Upon obtaining eight hundred credits, a girl becomes eligible to receive an honor M . Twice a year a very familiar scene takes place in dear old MHS. During this brief period the girls wear dog collars in school. After a week of this, they go through the proceedings of the G. A. A. initiation and become full-fledged members. A time that is looked forward to by all its members is the annual G. A. A. Banquet. The alumnae of the association attend this joyous event to reminisce over old times, sing and just be happy. (One very interest- ing thing about the G. A. A. is that it is the only organization that has an active alum- ni group.) As most good things, this occa- sion passes quickly and soon the evening is over. The present officers of the G. A. A. are Donna Foley, president and Emily Hilde- brandt, secretary, with Miss Anne Gregory as supervisor. The G. A. A. also runs all the playdays during which competition between other schools is held. 70 71 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS For their genuine help and interest in this project, the January and June classes of '47 wish to thank: Mrs. Crystal Littauer who gave her time to making this book a success.
