He marks—not that you won or lost—but how you played the game. —Grantland Rice m SIGNET PUBLISHED BY THE SENIORS OF MINEOLA HIGH SCHOOL MINEOLA, NEW YORK F 0 R E W 0 R D It was during the first week of October that a photographer discovered us gathered around Mr. Sloat's desk listening to the World Series. It was then that we thought of our school as a baseball club in itself with the student body as the players and the faculty, the coaches. 4 Our beloved teacher of mathemat- ics, Mrs. Alma Clendenny, seems to grow progressively younger in vitality and enthusiasm. Her sym- pathetic manner has encouraged many a student to try harder and succeed. During her more than forty years of teaching in Mineola, Mrs. Clendenny has also taken an aciive part in community activities. Gardening is one of Mrs. Clendenny's many hobbies. 5 — Fireplace Studio Dr. Frank E. Barnes (vice president), William E. Lotz, William T. Hicks, (president), Patrick J. Walshe. George F. Stradar. THE [RON! OFFICE A baseball team owes its standing in the league to the ability of its managers. Similarly a good high school must have capable heads. The team of faculty and student body is proud to work under the pro- gressive management of our able leader, Dr. Allen. Mr. Sloat, our principal, like most good baseball managers, knows off- hand the records of the majority of the personnel in his organization. Mr. Terry, our friendly assistant principal, is also the faculty advisor of the Projection Squad and the Candy Girls.

It was on September 25, 1949, that Mineola High School proudly dedicated its new athletic field to the men who lost their lives in World War II. Through selling magazine subscriptions, the students had raised $4,000 for the memorial gate which stands at the entrance of the field. The Nassau Review Star recognized Mineola as the first high school in Nassau County to erect such a memorial After the dedication speeches, members of the girls athletic department made colorful formations including one of the holy cross and another of the American flag.

McPartlin (2nd, now JthsL pdtdwA, holdt thsL baJL, and now hsL IcLl it qo. Who’s a jo-jo? The term jo-jo was first introduced to Mineola High by our class advisor, Mr. Wilhelm. So originated the name of our first dance, The Jo-Io Jump. As advanced juniors we gave another dance, the Autumn Serenade. Then came our senior year; that long awaited year. We lost no time once we were told that it was our chance to hold a Sadie Hawkins dance. Very appropriately it was named The Opportunity Knock. That night we packed the music room. The enter- tainment was hilarious. How well we re- member the Statue and Balloon dances! Next we were reminded of the Signet. Funds being of primary importance, the class set out to sell novelty football pins. Along with these we sold pencils. Assured we would meet our expenses, we set out on a more pleasant task—the Prom. We chose a South Sea Island theme which we thought could be well worked out in the gym. We certainly proved to ourselves that it could be done. Many hours were spent in decorat- ing the balcony with honeysuckle, creating an island with palm trees, making a hut for the band, decorating the windows with huge fish, and hanging streamers. We, and many of those who attended, will always consider it the best prom we ever held within the four walls of the M. H. S. gym. For the re- mainder of the term we sold basketball pencils to publicize the games and to in- crease our Signet fund. After a refreshing summer everyone in our class was ready to get back into the swing of things. Once again we sold football pins and pencils which proved to be a great sell- out at our new Memorial Stadium. We called our last dance The Bum's Rush. A huge bum painted on heavy paper was hung in the center hall and contributed greatly to the success of the dance. It was held in the gym, and in the center of the floor was a lighted pumpkin which some of the geniuses of our class created from crepe paper. Finally we planned Class Night, calling ourselves the forty-niners. Our theme re- volved about the gold rush days, and each of us received a small gold nugget pin on which was engraved '49. These are the things we'll never forget. 14 BARBARA ALLWORK Band; Campus Patrol; Chem. Club; Class V.

And so, under the direction of Mr. Bernard Hausman, the newly organized class produced something out of the ordinary, The Talent Hop. The main event of this dance was a Lindy and Foxtrot contest judged by two dancing instructors from the Arthur Murray Studios. The dance was a big hit and gave the class a good start on the road to success. The next thing the class officers, A1 Bauer, Marianne Pannevis, Steve Jablonski, and Jean Kiesel, (president, vice president, sec- retary and treasurer, respectively) did was to have another class meeting to decide on another way to build up the class treasury Again they came up with something entirely new, bookcovers! These were made of heavy gray paper with maroon lettering. Ads were sold and put on the backs of the covers to pay for the cost of printing. By September, 1948, all 3,000 had been sold and a new batch had to be printed. The next dance, La Grande Soiree, given in May, was not only new and unique itself, but it also had an unusual adveristing cam- paign. Posters were put up on every wall, on all the floors, so that no matter where you looked, a placard stared you in the face. All the posters promised the mysterious Mimi's presence at the dance. Besides the posters, small question mark-shaped bills were mimeographed. These told about Mimi and aroused the students' curiosity. Two boys hung these question marks on all the second floor lockers one morning before school, and at the end of the first period, these same boys could be seen picking them up off the floor . . . Came the dance. In the middle of it the mysterious Mimi made her appearance, an auction immediately took place, and Mimi went for $2.50. Mimi was a rare FRENCH . . . alley cat. When September rolled around again the now beginning seniors held another elec- tion. A1 Bauer and Marianne Pannevis were re-elected to their former positions. The offices of secretary and treasurer were taken over by Bob Green and Alice Ingalls. 24 ROBERT AKESON Glee Club; J. V. Baseball; J. V. Football; V. Basketball. Long, lank and debonair.

TTL-g-Ti-S-O-JL-O,!!!! 39 Caution was the keynote of the class of January, 1950. No impetuous group of youngsters, they first studied their new duties. Miss Barbara Hobbs was the unani- mous choice for class advisor. Under the inspiration of her pleasant personality they got off to a sound start. The problem of raising money was fore- most on the agenda at their first meeting as an organized class. The popular vote was against having a class dance immediately. Such an undertaking would have to have more consideration. Instead they decided to trust to their ability as hucksters to bring in the wampum. Pennants and skull caps were hawked through the halls of M. H. S. Orders rolled in, and the treasury began to show a substantial balance. In September they held their first dance. It had been appropriately named The Foot- ball Kick in honor of the game with Bald- win to be played the next day in our new stadium. There was a large turnout at the dance, and the receipts were satisfactory. “JhsAsL wcUl. QjLmnu ao£(l otL asicmuL and Jlynn, a-imqqim iki id!' JANUARY JUNIORS R. Vogel. F. Di Silvestro. J. Peters. S. Davis The thrill of working as an organized and united class became a reality to the begin- ning juniors in October. Realizing the need for capable leaders in an outstanding class program, the class of June, 1950, chose their officers carefully. Donald Corzun was elected president. His faculty of being able to handle any situation appealed to the class. Don is a reserved youth with a flare for athletics and the sciences. Margaret Nolan, our vivacious cheer leader captain, was chosen vice president. The class elected Solon Chao as their secretary. Solon has had very interesting experiences. He was born in Peking, China, and his father works with the United Na- tions. Sally Ignaczak was elected class treas- urer. Sally is well-known to her classmates and shows enthusiasm in everything she does. The very able Miss Harriet Proaper will serve as class advisor. For their rings either a ruby, sapphire or onyx stone could be chosen by class mem- bers. Some juniors ordered bracelets and pins displaying the same round gold setting as the rings. “JhsUlSL LUjCLSu SjCLML in, QaASUjA, manncA, oa, Jisl Aicppcd into hiiu pIo£SL' JUNE JUNIORS D. Corzun, M. Nolan, S. Ignaczak. S. Chao The freshman look upon their sophomore year with longing, and the juniors and seniors look back at it and say, Gosh, plane geometry was easy compared to this solid. As a rule, a sophomore can be easily spotted in a crowd; he looks different from all of the other students because he has lost that timorous look of a freshman and has not gained the worn and haggard look of an upperclassman. The sophomore year is probably the most carefree of all the high school years. The students in this class have not yet organized nor have they done anything as a class. Although they have learned their way around, they do not have the problems and responsibilities of the juniors and seniors. Each new term brings many new faces to the halls of M.H.S. Along with their frightened and bewildered expressions and tons of books, the freshmen bring many new ideas, and serve as the brunt of numerous jokes. Questions and tardiness are frequent during the first weeks of school and although mishaps such as the time when a boy went to Latin class for four days before he FIIESHMEN found out it was an algerba class are in- frequent, they do happen. Everyone laughs at the freshmen's mistakes, but probably the group that gets the biggest kick out of them is the big ADVANCED freshmen. FOOTBALL Inset: Kenneth Hafner. Coach. Sitting: W. Slater. D.

In the early stages of the game Baldwin scored their two touchdowns of the game. Mineola's lone tally came on a last quarter drive cli- maxed by a scoring plunge by Barritt, Don Vazquez kicking the extra point. For their initial victory the Maroons tri- umphed over Great Neck. They completely dominated the play throughout the game, with Ed Barritt scoring three times on long runs. In the fourth quarter Tom Rogers plunged over from the twelve-yard line. Ed McGuinty tackled a Great Neck back in the end zone, adding two more points to Min- eola's score. Vazquez accounted for three points by placement. Lawrence was defeated in a hard-fought contest, 7-0, the wining score being made by Barritt's plunge in the final period. Vaz- quez kicked the point. Freeport edged out the Maroons in the final quarter of another bitterly-contested game. Through most of the game Mineola led due to Ferrulli's runs. Ferrulli scored on two aerial plays, the first a pass from Rogers which covered seventy yards to paydirt; the other, an interception of a Saddler pass which covered sixty-four yards to the goal. Vazquez kicked both extra points. Mineola lost a second close game, this time to a strong Glen Cove squad. Barritt scored the single Mineola touchdown in a one-yard plunge, set up by a long Ferrulli- to-Donnelly pass. Mepham succumbed to the Mineola power, with Rogers walking over the goal behind tremendous blocking for the first score. Bill Slater intercepted a pass and carried the ball sixty-one yards to paydirt. In their annual clash with the Hempstead Tigers, the Maroons were overwhelmed, Tom Rogers scoring the only t.d. on a fourth quarter plunge. The final victim of Mineola's eleven was Sewanhaka. Bill Donnelly scored the first touchdown on a pass from Ferrulli. In the last quarter Ed Barritt broke away for ninety yards and the deciding score. All i n all, t h e Maroons played well throughout the year. With their new offense they were able to score on every opponent. This is a justifiable satisfaction to Ken Hafner and his team.

The Maroons got off to a fast start, winning five exhibition games. St. Paul's was the first to be a victim of the Mineola power- Triples by Ferulli (two), and Pechette, along with a home run by Walt Hildebrandt, helped account for the eleven runs while Andy Del Vecchio held the prep men scoreless. Mineola received their initial defeat when they traveled to Farmingdale. Two errors in the tenth inning gave Farmingdale the win- ning run. Del Vecchio, however, pitched a no-hitter for the first nine innings. The Maroons conquered Westbury by a 15-3 score. Pechette's home run and three hits by Ferrulli helped Pete Herbst obtain his first victory. Farmingdale was subdued 9-7 in a hitter's battle. Jack Nolan hit a single, double and a home run. Del Vecchio was the winning pitcher. The Maroons traveled to Garden City for their first league encounter. Garden City's winning run came in the last inning as a result of a squeeze play. Walt Hildebrandt hit a home run and two singles. Mineola then beat Manhasset, behind Pete Herbst. Labriola's single drove in the deciding run as Mineola won, 3-1. The Maroons could only get two hits from the Manhasset hurler. Bob Vogel held Port Washington to two hits to shut them out, 1-0. Walt Hildebrandt cracked out a triple to score Labriola for the winning run. Vic Ferrulli and Don Fonseca homered to give the Maroons a 7-6 victory over Glen Cove. Herbst received credit for the win. Andy Del Vecchio pitched a one-hitter to shut out Port, 4-0. Pechette hit an important triple. This was the Maroons' second suc- cesful encounter against Port Washington. The Maroons pounded Manhasset for twelve hits and twelve runs to win. Ferrulli homered and Bill Gundel hit a triple. Mineola's hard hitting nine finished the season in a thrilling battle with Baldwin. The Maroons won the game, 9-6, in the tenth inning. Herbst was the winning pitcher and Nolan hit two doubles.

TRACK Coach Wright's well conditioned track team completed a successful season by win- ning its three dual meets this year. The closest meet was with Glen Cove. Our boys ran away with the senior events, but with the lack of junior support the out- come was in doubt, until the points from the final event were tabulated. With a 78-76 win over Glen Cove, an 85' 2- 68 V2 edge over Great Neck and an 89-54 romp at Hicksville, the Mineola boys went into the North Shore and sectional meets with high hopes of gathering up a number of points. Steady winners who took honors in their respective fields were lack Daley, Rod Murtha and Kenney Broderick in the dashes; William Murphy and Richie Raschke in the distance runs, and Ed Barritt, Jim Condon and Frank Pizzo in the field events. John Capelluto took top honors in the junior com- petition. This year much attention waS given to the speed merchants who rounded out the 880 relay team. Mineola was second only to Garden City. The first sectional meet that rolled around was the Long Island Relays. Mineola en- tered their 880 relay with a strong two-mile team which came in second and fourth, re- spectively. Next M. H. S. traveled to Port Washington. Here Daley, Hildebrandt, Murphy, Raschke, Barritt, and Condon placed for the medals. When the North Shore Meet came around, Mineola's group of win- ners was cut slightly. Jack Daley showed in the 100 and 220; Frank Pizzo placed in the shot put; Hildebrandt finished in the hurdles, and Richie Raschke placed in the mile while the 880 relay team chalked up another win. The season came to a close at Sewanhaka where Walt Hildebrandt took a fourth in the hurdles, Jack Daley taking a fourth in the 100 and a third in the 220. The relay team ran a close third behind Sewanhaka. On the whole Mr. Wright and the boys on the team came up with one of the most suc- cessful seasons in track history that Mineola has witnessed in many a year. Much atten- tion was directed toward the team. Because of this and our new stadium with its one- fourth mile track, there are hopes of many more such successful track and field seasons at Mineola. 54 With three letter men back from last year's squad and a host of J. V. men, pos- sessing speed, height, and aggressiveness. Coach Tony DePhillips looked forward to a successful 1948-49 season. The squad scrimmaged with such fine city clubs as Jackson, Wilson and Forest Hills. Then the Mineola cagers opened season play by meeting Hempstead on their home boards. After dropping a squeaker to the Hub team and being drubbed by Freeport, the Maroons, led by John Peterson and Ed Bow- ler, edged out Farmingdale in one cf the most impressive wins of the campaign. The team dropped two more decisions, entering league play with a 1 and 4 record. Paced by Doug Hafner and John Peterson, the Maroons trailed the local boys, 22 to 20, at Adelphi but failed to answer the call in the second half, losing their opening league test to Garden City, 50-36. On January 11, time-out was taken for a non-league en- counter which saw Mineola defeat West- bury, 32-23. The following Friday, Mineola entertained Manhasset. Sparked by the brilliant play of Rudy Behn, Ed Bowler and Captain John Peterson, who all hit the nets for double figures, the Maroons caught fire and downed the Indians 49-35.

Traveling to Glen Cove only to fall on the short end of a 35-33 battle, the Maroon five returned home and handed a high-flying Port quintet a 62-57 defeat. Easy Ed Bow- ler turned in one of the finest performances of the year when he hit 11 times from the floor, while only once from the foul line, to talley up 23 points. This was first only to John Peterson's exhibition in a losing cause, at Great Neck, where the Red Captain tossed in 20 points. With a second look at their North Shore opponents, Mineola defeated Great Neck 55 and Glen Cove and wound up the season with a 6 and 12 record. Under the vigorous coaching of Mr. Ralph Wilhelm, the Mineola Junior Varsity basket- ball team improved steadily throughout the season. Showing special promise were Viapiano and Cordts. Ball handlers who were outstanding were Burns, Thompson and Welker. Those who did the heavy duty work under the boards most creditably were Going, McNamara, Viapiano, Cordts, and Burdewick. The Junior Varsity was in top form when they routed the Westbury quintet. The Maroons used one continuous fast break to score 56 points against their helpless oppo- nents. Harry Thompson was high man for Mineola, hitting six one-handers for his 12 point total. Manhasset came out on top by one point in a hectic battle. It was basket for basket throughout the contest with neither team gaining a sizeable lead. Going and Bums were high scorers for the team with 15 and 16 points, respectively. Viapiano, along with Going, was outstanding off the boards. Down on the floor at the Freeport Game. (Varsity.) Double Dribble at the Hempstead game. (Varsity.) Kneeling: I. Miller, W. Welker. R.

BASKETBALL Mineola met its second heartbreaker in a row as the Covers defeated them in the last few rounds of the game. Burns led the team in scoring, aided by Viapiano and Going off the boards. The Maroons didn't have the height to cope with Glen Cove's big center, who scored 20 points. Mineola was routed 50-36 by Port Wash- ington as they lost their third successive league game. Port's big team controlled the ball and continually used the fast break to score. Going and Burns each had 11 points. The Maroons defeated Great Neck by one basket for their first league win. They were behind by four baskets during the last quar- ter but rallied to pull their chestnuts out of the fire. Once again Burns led the scorers with 13 markers. Mineola bowled over Great Neck in a return game by a 43-36 score. This was a fine exhibition of teamwork by the Junior Varsity. Harry Thompson's individual efforts in the first half helped the team to a big lead. Thompson was high scorer with 11 points while McNamara and Viapiano com- bined to control the boards. 56 Harry C.

FOOTBALL With the valuable assistance of Jimmy Brown, ex-Hofstra lineman and former Mineola grid star, Coach Harry Duff was able to put together a well-rounded football squad this year. This club, which represented Mineola in a five-game schedule, was composed of freshmen and sophomores, the majority of whom will undoubtedly move into the var- sity lineup within a few years. Although the J. V. does not play as many games as the varsity, just as much work is put into the organization of this squad. The boys, as well as the coaches, put forth as much effort as the older and more experienced varsity grid machine. The purpose of the Junior Varsity is to acquaint the newcomers with the fundamentals of the game as well as the basis of offensive and defensive play, i.e., the weapons used against other schools in varsity play. To open the season, the little Maroons traveled to Baldwin. There they met a strong blue and gold eleven who outplayed our boys to a 24-0 score. The following Monday the J. V. went to Glen Cove, where SCHEDULE Baldwin 24 ................Mineola 0 Glen Cove 14...............Mineola 6 Freeport 0 ................Mineola 0 Sewanhaka 6 ...............Mineola 6 Sewanhaka 6................Mineola 26 they were edged out 14-6 by one touch- down, in a close game right down to the wire. Harry Thomson advanced 20 yards to pay dirt for our only score. When mid-season rolled around, the J. V. jumped out of their slump by holding a highly-rated Freeport team to a 0-0 tie. On the next Monday coach Harry Duff's squad invaded the Sewanhaka Indians and man- aged to hold the rival-speed merchants to a 6-6 tie. Mineola's only score came in the final stanza, after a 60-yard drive. The extra point was missed and both teams left the gridiron fairly well satisfied. On the following week the J. V. caught fire and profiting by their mistakes the week before, romped to a 26-6 win to finish the season in fine style. 57 58 On the floor: G. Gosclnski. S. Osieka. G. Wood. H. Duggan. J.

GIRLS’ VOLLEYBALL When the autumn wind grows bitter, the girls come in off the hockey fields. Volley- ball season is underway. This event brings joy to many of the girls at Mineola High who have eagerly awaited it. This sport is the most popular among the girls and has proved to have a bigger turnout than any other sport. Volleyball is very deceiving to the specta- tors. It looks easy to an outsider but it is really difficult. Teamwork is the most neces- sary factor for a good game. Two teams of girls, both with experience and practice, when matched against each other, can pro- vide a most exciting bit of entertainment. As long as the ball can be kept going back and forth without touching the ground, the game gets more interesting every minute. Volleyball is played on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, juniors end seniors clashing on Tuesday, freshmen and sopho- mores, Thursday. From these teams our coach, Miss Gregory, selects two honor teams to represent our school. The top honor team this year has won every game it has played. The volleyball M is given to girls who have been on the honor teams two years. On the second honor team are four girls who will receive their letter this year. These girls are Catherine Gerrity, Pat Kochey, June Collins, and Mable Bullen. The volleyball seasons ends with play- day. Teams from three other schools are invited to participate. The schools this year are Sea Cliff, Roslyn, and Sewanhaka. After the games have been played, a Christmas party is held. Refreshments are served by candlelight and gifts are exchanged. Bar- bara Allwork was chosen as this year's play- day chairman. The tradition of playday has been going on for about thirteen years. We have enter- tained different schools each time, and our gym teachers have tried to invite all the schools on Long Island at the rate of three a year, in all these years, our honor teams represented the school splendidly, being de- feated in only one game with Lynbrook 59 The soccer season opened with much excitement this year, soccer being a favo- rite game in M. H. S. Teams were formed and after-school games scheduled. At the end of weeks of competition the playoffs were held. One game had to be played thirty minutes overtime before a goal was scored. The winners of the playoff receive soccer shields. These shields are gray and maroon with a soccer ball on them. The honor team was picked from the winning team of the playoff. Kneeling: J. Goscinski, I. Kaider. G. Wicks, A. Igel, M. Nigro; Standing: G. Wood, F. Nigro. J. Cooper, S. Osiecka. Rush in there!” Stop that long drive! Get that ball down the field! Keep that tick down! All these are familiar calls to ie girls that play hockey. After the intramural games with freshmen s. sophomores and juniors vs. seniors are ver, there is a playoff for the top teams, 'he winners receive hockey shields. Then there are tryouts for the honor team: 'he team this year was to go to Hofstra ind Sewanhaka for playdays, but both lates were rained out. Manager and cap- lin are Marilyn Harknett and Joan Mor- etta, respectively. As the tennis season rolls around, you can hear the far off call of Love-1, love-4 as scores are tallied up. Speed and proper form are essential in tennis. When tennis rackets and balls first start to appear in school, the fundamentals are taught in gym classes. After proper preparation has been made, the girls are off to the tennis courts in the park. These tennis players are fortu- nate for the courts in the park are excellent. One such group was snapped by our pho- tographer. Kneeling: E. Callahan. A. Kendall, D. Cambria; Standing: G. Campbell, E. O’Reilly, E. Brogan. E. McNamara. GIRLS' BASKETBALL Double dribble: this new play was intro- duced in girls' basketball in M. H. S. at the beginning of the 1949 season. It was an altogether revolutionary idea in an already popular sport. Formerly, the ball could be bounced only once. Now it could be bounced twice, making the game faster and more spectacular. As yet, this play had not been made an official ruling. During the basketball season, each Tues- day and Thursday afternoon at about 3:15, the freshman-sophomore teams and the junior-senior teams clashed. After many weeks of over guarding and charging , the teams with the highest number of points were selected. These teams met on the day of the playoffs. This was the day of reckon- ing—the red letter day in girls' basketball. Of course, before girls could qualify to take part in the games after school, they had to get a sound understanding of the fundamentals, in class work. At the begin- ning, each class was divided into two groups — those already familiar with the game and those wanting to learn it. In practice the girls became familiar with one- handed shots, foul shots, pivoting, guarding, and all such basketball terms. As they be- came expert in handling the ball, the girls went out for intra-murals after school. From observation made in class, the coaches—Miss Gregory and Miss Freund— chose the girls for the Honor Team. Those who did not qualify for this team but were good players were given A ratings. Every honor team a girl makes and every A rating she receives means points towards her be- coming a member of the G. A. A. Membership in this organization is the goal which most girls wish to attain. In order to make G. A. A. a girl must enter in the intramurals because 150 points, of the 600 which are necessary to join the G. A. A., must be earned after school. Basketball gives a large number of girls the opportunity to earn these points and enjoy earning them. Win or lose ,the players enjoy every minute of this exciting game.

Hold the presses; it's a scoop! If you drop into the ? Room after school, this is the jargon you're likely to hear. The ”? keeps abreast of all the news. All important events that take place at M.H.S. can be found recorded in our school paper. Breezing through this paper, ygu find a wealth of things to hold your interest. This year the ? is edited by Maureen Friderichs, ably assisted by Marianne Pan- nevis and Phyllis Rotherham. A note of interest concerning the paper is that it is the only self-supporting school pub- lication on Long Island. Being a member of the ’’? staff is both fun and hard work. The advisors choose certain students from the staff to represent Mineola in the writing of the Teen-Age for the Review Star. These chosen few are selected on the basis of the service they have rendered to the paper. As a result of working on this page, the members attend a dinner given for all the schools that have edited one of these pages. The ”? has advisors who help the staff over all the hurdles that they encounter. Miss Marion Palmer has charge of the lit- erary work and Miss Helen Oprandy, the business. 64 Are you a gang booster? The spry voice that asked you this question belonged, no doubt, to a member of the Signet Staff. So- liciting ads, gathering gang boosters , and taking ” around the campus snapshots are only a few of the varied responsibilities of the personnel of the Signet Staffs. It all started in September when a neat typewritten sheet appeared on the main- hall bulletin board listing the names of those students to serve on the Yearbook Staff. Before long members of the Business Staff found themselves enthusiastically discussing the merits of yearbook advertising with their local merchants. In autumn, Wednesday afternoons found members of the Editorial Staff busily drawing up plans for the theme and cover for this 1949 Signet. Terms such as dummy, double-page spread, glossy print and sports composite soon became vital in a staff member's vocabulary. Most of us thought all we had to do to make a yearbook was to sit down and write about our favorite subject — Mineola High School. Actually it was months before we took pen in hand to set down in black and white the why's and wherefore's of our many school organizations. Sitting: D. Hainer, M. Harknett. H. Hammett, L. Fine, R.

SIGNET Surely the most valuable intangible bene- fit reaped from the publishing of our 1949 Signet has been our close association with our fellow classmates. We saw how we all needed to pull together in order to make this Yearbook one which our parents, school mates and faculty would be proud of. It was with this thought in mind that we edited this 1949 SIGNET. J. Mac Veety. bus manager; J. Richmond, circulation manager; B. Allwork, assistant editor; A. Kendall, editor. Sitting: J. Kern. A.

This organization is made up of the pres- idents and active heads of the groups in our school. A great undertaking for the members this year was revising the constitution. To learn new ideas and hear about student govern- ment in other schools, some students on the Council attended a League meeting at Gar- den City High School in November. Mr. Simonson, our advisor, is very strong- ly backing us up. We're sure to remember a year well spent as members of the Stu- dent Council. I'd be willing to bet you have wondered how certain people get the opportunity to make the announcements in assembly. These people are members of the Assembly Council. Furthermore, besides making the an- nouncements, they meet once a week to help plan future programs. The Assembly Council has two divisions, the freshman-sophomore group with Grace Munao as president; and the junior-senior group which functions with Joan MacVeety as president. Both of these councils are supervised by Miss Jane Austen. During the course of the year the Council gave a Christmas tea for the faculty. 66 The N. H. S. of M. H. S. was first organized in May, 1948. Twenty-one students, who ful- filled the requirements of character, scholar- ship, leadership, and service were inducted by the Malverne Chapter. Last June, six- teen graduated leaving five members to pre- sent the next induction program. The fall months were spent in preparation for our first real induction. Miss Mullen, our ad- visor, was behind us all the way; this we know was the reason for the success of our induction. In early December, nineteen members were tapped for entrance into this organization. Are you test-conditioned? Do you get high grades on the psychological, English vocabularly and other exams given not only by our school but by many colleges and business firms? Members of the College Club answer these questions with a loud, firm YES! Under the supervision of Miss Phillips, this group met to take tests similar to those they might be asked to take at a future date. In striving for speed and accuracy, they also gained self-confidence; a necessary thing if you expect to pass College Entrances with flying colors. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY R- Taylor, A. Kendall, F.

Our courteous, but firm. Hall Patrollers keep traffic moving along in our corridors. Upper classmen with a good scholastic average are eligible for this organization. Miss Cornelia Doedeyns, their director, assists the cops in every way possible to aid them in carrying out their duties. We remember those on the Hall Patrol as the people who arrived in class just after the tardy bell rang. Then two minutes before the period ended they arose and left. The Library Council, made up of fifteen members, is a credit to the M. H. S. library and a big help to Mrs. Johnson, our school's librarian. These girls give up their free periods for such work as typing, shelving books, checking permits, and helping stu- dents select and locate books. Many times, though, they can be found looking at the latest styles in Vogue and Mademoiselle. A gold key is awarded each girl who gives two years of her service to this organization.

The duties of each member are to keep everyone out of the hall during lunch per- iods, make sure students do not take their lunches out and watch for misdemeanors on the campus. There are approximately forty members with Robert Schlichting, president; Audrey Marques, vice president; and Beverly Fur- nell, secretary. The Campus Patrol is headed by Miss Elizabeth Pulver, who really makes sure the kids are on the job. GUIDANCE CUB Where are you going; how are you going; what are you going to do? Those in the Guidance Club are busily typing above the hum of such questions as these. The girls type records for Miss Phillips and Mr. Simonson. Records must be kept in perfect order for reference. College catalogs too must be kept in al- phabetical order. The girls take great pride in the appearance of these pamphlets. As- sisting with the marking and filing the Kudor tests is another of their varied duties. PROJECTION SQUAD In this modem age, there is a great deal of emphasis on visual education in our school systems. Movies are therefore becoming more common in the classrooms. The boys who help to carry out these visual education plans are members of the Projection Squad. Being on the Projection Squad is an edu- cation in itself as these boys see many films they could not have seen otherwise. Kneeling: R. Green. R. Conklin. R. Kuhn; Sitting: W. Sanchez, R. Junk, J.

Besides making this list on the duplicating machine and distributing it to all the rooms, it is also the business of the office girls to return lost books. They assist Mr. Sloat, Mr. Terry, and Mrs. Wellbrock by running all sorts of errands which pertain to the business of a high school principal's office. J. Morretta, D. Comerma, D. Becker, B. Allwork. CANDY COUNTER Have any chocolate bars? That is one of the most frequent questions which the candy girls hear at lunch time. These girls, under the direction of Mr. Terry, sell candy during the lunch hours and at the basketball games. The profits are used to buy athletic equipment. After the football season, the senior candy girls are invited to the football dinner. First row: B. Gillespie, R. Falbee, D. Banziger, M. Bullen, I. Garcia, D. Comerma; Second row: G. Wood, P.

A. girls will always have pleas- ant memories of the intimate activities of their club. The busy meetings, secret initia- tions, and annual G. A. A. Banquet are the happy events remembered by every girl in the group. To be eligible for this organization, a girl must have 600 credits, 150 of which must be for after school work. Awards to look forward to are the honor M and the highly valued silver bracelet. ''Once a G. A. A. member, always a G. A. A. member. It is the only organization in school with an active alumni group. What is the Hi-Y? It is a high school club sponsored by the Y. W. C. A. This year the Theta Phi Hi-Y group elected Henrietta Donaldson president. At once the club set out to do things worthy of high standards of Christian character. Canned foods were collected for needy fam- ilies of Mineola. Hi-Y girls get enjoyment out of doing such things as these. On December 10, 11, and 12 a delegate from our club went to Albany. Here she learned the functions of the state govern- ment. Truly the Hi-Y stands for high stand- ards of Christian living. 71 SPANISH CLUB El Circulo Espanol was re-organized early in September by our new and enthusiastic Spanish teacher, Miss Marjorie Grathwohl. The officers elected at the first meeting were: A1 Bauer, president; Frances Helme, vice- president; Pat Lewis, secretary; and John Juergens, treasurer. Since the treasury was bulging from the dues collected and every- one was in favor of spending the money, plans were made to get rid of the stuff. Be- sides making plans to rent Spanish movies to be shown in school, the students hope to go to some of the various Spanish museums in the city. If ou ab a code, go to the clinic. The congenial atmosphere of the clinic draws students and teachers alike to have head- aches soothed and colds alleviated. If you need a Kleenex, an excuse for gym, or want to weigh yourself, this is the place to go. Mrs. Young and Miss Namian, with the help of the clinic workers, keep everyone up to par. Friendly Dr. Karl occasionally visits the clinic to examine those students apply- ing for working papers. During the year Mrs. Young gives eye tests and audiometer tests, while Miss Namian examines teeth. CLINIC WORKERS 72 Miss Namian, M. D’Alton, C. Wildermuth, R. Robba, Mrs. Young. GLEE CLUBS The Girls' Glee meets three times a week. Seventh Period officers are Florence Timm, president; Bernadette Klein, vice president; June Beyrodt, secretary. The librarians are Juanita Distler, Dot Gervais and Alberta Bar- ber. Heading the Eighth Period are Barbara McGinley, president; Grace Nulty, vice president; Alice Fitterer and Betty Arm- strong, secretaries. Librarians are Nancy Iversen, Mary Cody, and Kathryn Koop. Making a lovely appearance in their formal dresses of varied hues, the girls sang at the Christmas and Spring Concerts. The Boys' Glee Club meets only two days a week. These Tuesdays and Thursdays are looked forward to. Being a smaller group than the girls, the boys make up in volume for what they lack in number. The Seventh and Eighth Period officers are Stuart Davis and Charles Miller, presidents; Robert John- son and Carmen Fusco, vice presidents; Herbert Hammett and Walter Williams, secretaries. Librarians are Anthony Sinis- calchi, Donald Cacamis, Richard Tomlinson, and James Gerrie. Do you remember how pleased you were as a freshman when you could elect glee club as one of your courses? One of the most popular subjects, glee club has been enjoyed by nearly three-quarters of our stu- dents. To become a member of the Chor- isters, one must first prove his singing ability in glee club. Mr. Sheckard, the director of the glee clubs, came to M. H. S. only three years ago. His enthusiasm and his fine tenor voice have been a great inspiration to his students. BAND TWIRLERS P. Mason, A. Winquist, J. Nubel. J. Geller. R. Amodio E. McNa- mara, M. Byers. You'll march in the sixth rank and the second file. “But, Mr. Enzian, what's the difference between a rank and a file? Ques- tions such as this confronted our new band director early in September. Despite this fact the excellent marching, formations, and the music of the band throughout the foot- ball season inspired the players and fans alike. It is the duty of members of the band, during the fall months, to attend Saturday morning rehearsals. At these rehearsals the pre-game and half-time formations are thoroughly prepared. The final appearance of the band for the 1948 season was the Hempstead game. Im- mediately after this the band had to do some hard rehearsing in preparation for the open- ing curtain at the Christmas Concert. March twirlers down the field! March to your goal! And that goal is something, for the seven twirlers of M. H. S. are chosen on the basis of good strutting, good technique, and good looks by a strict committee of the present twirlers and the music faculty of our school. Upon making the grade, they take on a severe program of practice three times a week under the persevering direction of their cute majorette, Janet Geller. Just as Janet was a regular twirler who graduated from the line to become its leader, it is the ambition of all our twirlers to be majorette. No matter when or where you see our band, there'll always be our sensational seven marching down the field with their snappy strut and eye-catching uniforms of white and gold. Besides fulfilling their many school obligations, they perform as a group at outside affairs. 74 That music! Bach! Beethoven! Have you heard the music drifting through the halls fourth period and wondered where it was coming from? If you happened to pass by the music room, you would see the members of the orchestra rehearsing under the direction of Mr. Elwood Schwan. The orchestra is a hard-warking organiza- tion. After the election of its officers—- Michael DeRosa, president; Patricia Demp- sey, vice-president; and Marilyn Jodry, sec- retary—the group went right to work on music for the Christmas Concert and school play. After these successful appearances, preparations started for graduation, and then still later, the Spring Concert. Versatility is one of the characteristics of the orchestra. This year it has played music ranging from Beethoven to Hoagy Car- michael. If it's relaxation you need, just go into the music room fourth period and listen to this very talented organization. Most people agree that singing with a group is an outstanding pleasure. Listening may also provide enjoyment, especially when one listens to such a group as the Madrigals. The Madrigals is made up of twenty-four voices, ranging from soprano to bass. For membership in this special choral group, one must already be a member of the Choristers. Final eliminations are made at an audition where a few chosen voices finally qualify. The popular Mr. Schwan leads the Madri- gals. Some of their favorite numbers are The Song of Christmas and Fred Waring's arrangement of Coming Through the Rye. Practicing every Monday afternoon has led these music-minded students to put on many splendid performances. They have sung at the Radio Revue and various Parent- Teacher Association meetings. The Madri- gals display their talent at other gatherings, requiring small vocal group®. ORCHESTRA MADRIGALS First row: J. Agro, J. MacVeety, I. Peters, B. Quicker, B. Furnell, M. Merenda, G.

One of the most outstanding features of Mineola High School's concerts is the Choristers. Under the direction of Mr. Schwan, they have grown to be one of the most-talked about groups of the high school. Every year a Spring and a Christmas con- cert are put on by all the members of our music department. Besides the annual concerts, there is also the Radio Revue. This enables anyone who can dance, sing or perform in any way to try out before an audience. The Dance Band and Choristers do a few numbers. During the term the Choristers gave a number of appearances at Cross Street School and sang carols in Williston Park at Christmas. To raise money for an organ, the Chorus sold Christmas cards. You may remember the sales talks that sold many a box of En- chanting Cherubs. When the deep purple falls, over sleepy garden walls are the melodious words that float down from the music room and up through the empty halls. It is three-thirty o'clock and the Girls' Sextet is singing one of its favorite numbers. In order to be eligible for the Girls' Sextet, a girl must have had experience in Choris- ters for at least one year. At a public audi- tion, Mr. Sheckard chooses the six voices that seem to blend together most harmo- niously. The girls anxiously await their first ap- pearance in the Radio Revue. The climax to their program comes when they sing at their graduation in June. Mr. Sheckard pilots these six girls to bet- ter singing while he accompanies them on the piano. The members of the Sextet ap- preciate the patient hours he has devoted to coaching their group. 76 A roll on the drum! A blare of the trumpet! The tempo is set! The curtain opens with the playing of Sophisticated Swing by the woodwinds, brass and rhythm sections of our ever popular dance band. This year's selections were chosen so as to satisfy the musical tastes of the student body. From Kenton's jazz to ballads by Dorsey range the pieces played by the dance band. These arrangements were selected by the manager of the dance band, Joe Amodio. Re-arrangements were later written by Jerry Weaver. These were ren- dered at assemblies and as one of the main features in the Radio Revue, presented dur- ing the month of April. The dance band consists of a five-piece sax section, a seven-piece brass section, and a four-piece rhythm section. The dance band is ably conducted by Mr. Henry Enzian. The String Ensemble is made up of the most outstanding musicians in the school orchestra who play stringed instruments. The group has been meeting to rehearse once a week in the homes of its members. This string group of eight members fills an important place in the needs of both the school and the community. The String En- semble is small and versatile while the or- chestra or band is larger and more unwieldly. In olden times ensembles were hired by the wealthy to perform at teas or to provide chamber music. The Mineola ensemble has proven to be more versatile than these earlier organizations. The ensemble has played for such events as the twenty-five year testimonial dinner given for Dr. Allen, charity plays sponsored by the Kiwanis Club, the Honor Society initiations and a faculty tea.

The purpose of the cheerleaders is to lead the fans in spirit- ed yells cheering for the fighting Mineola teams at all ball games. They give a great lift to the morale of Mineola's players, a big factor in defeat or victory. Under the direction of Miss Anne Gregory the Varsity team is led by able Margie Nolan, and the Junior Varsity falls on the capable shoulders of Alice Annabel. Once a year at the conclusion of the term are cheerleader tryouts. By the process of elimination twenty girls are chosen by the athletic department. This list of twenty girls is sent to the faculty, who in turn rate each girl on her scholastic ability, personality, leadership and conduct. The required num- ber with the most votes begin practicing diligently for the next year. The Varsity team this year had eleven new cheerleaders. The task of teaching each girl was a challenging burden placed on Margie Nolan. Much credit is due to the little girl with a big job. Practice is held once a week. These twelve cheer at all Var- sity basketball and football games. At the end of the year they receive tiny silver megaphones. The uniforms are princess style of maroon velveteen with grey vel- veteen cuffs and Peter Pan collars. A new addition to the school is the “spir- ited six. These are the Junior Varsity cheer- leaders. The J. V's cheer at all Junior Var- sity football and basketball games. These cheerleaders very capably devised their own new cheers under the captaincy of Alice Annabel. They wear white wool sweaters with a maroon M and maroon pleated skirts. The job of these girls may look quite simple and glamorous, but it is quite the opposite. It requires a lot of work and plenty of cooperation to get a smooth-work- ing unit. If you happened to see Barbara Sweeney wearing a cast on her knee last summer, you have ample proof that the cheerleaders put their all into it. Don't let this discourage you though, girls. Yes, Mineola truly appreciates her cheer- leaders. Center: A. Annabel, capt. C. Malinsky. A. Steffens. L. Meyer, M. Wolfe, P. Hafner. CHEMISTRY CLUB BIOLOGY CLUB With no officers and no officially sched- uled meetings, the Chem Club has proved to be a great success. No one joins simply because he wants to belong to a club. Stu- dents come in to the chemistry lab after school because they are truly interested in learning more about science. This spirit, which has been fostered by Mr. Wilhelm, builds up personal initiative. The most ambitious project undertaken this year was the building of a working model of an electric arc furnace, which can create temperatures of above 5,000 degrees centigrade. This experiment, like so many others of the group, was the result of stu- dents' research in various text books and science magazines. Other projects involved the distillation of liquids, normal solutions and the synthesis of rayon. Before students start the more difficult experiments, they learn the necessary lab- oratory technique in the regular lab periods required of all chemistry pupils. The experi- ments performed are not always of a spec- tacular nature. Rather they are of a variety requiring great patience and care, quali- ties every successful chemist must have. Squashes in the biology lab? Yes, that's what we saw when we went up to Room 306 to investigate the Biology Club. Sturdy green squash plants were pushing their way upward in the hydroponic garden. Soilless gardens are one of the club's projects this year. Later, colored lights will be used on the vegetables raised in the gardens to study what effect different colors may have on plant growth. Members of the club have made the ferti- lizer-bedding in which the plants are grown. In their work dissecting frogs, crabs and worms, the biologists have made their own slides and colored them. Considerable time is spent in this work with the microscope. The study of diet is another project of the Biology Club. Fish, guinea pigs and mice are given inadequate diets and their reac- tions are studied. Heredity is investigated through the use of the Drosophila, commonly known as the fruit fly. Due to the informal nature of this club, no officers have been elected. The faculty advisors are Mrs. Richel and Mr. Cady. 81 THESPIANS Lower center: A. Kendall; Seated: R. Falbee, C. Langevin; Third row, B. Irwin. M. Read. J. Larkin; Fourth row: I. Richmond. B. Ginochio. This year, the dramatics department, under the direction of Miss Jane Austen, presented The Divine Flora, a comedy by Florence Ryerson and Colin Clements. As a result of this performance, Troop No. 276 of the National Thespian Honor Dramat- ics Society was enlarged by six new mem- bers. They were Rosemary Falbee, Robert Ginochio, Bruce Irwin, Arvilla Kendall, Margaret Read, and Jack Richmond. Al- ready, members of the Thespian Society were Dick Butterworth and John Larkin, who also had major parts in the The Divine Flora. It isn't an easy task to become a member of this national organization, nor is it pos- sible for everyone to have the leading role in a production. Thespians must have the ability to accept criticism, disappointments and promotions all in the same spirit. This society differs from most other groups in that you must earn your membership; you can't just go in to a meeting and say, “I’d like to join your organization. In order to become eligible for member- ship, a student must have played with merit a major role in one full-length play or two major roles in one-act plays sponsored by the school. The Thespian Society has colors, flowers and a motto. The colors are blue and gold, while the flowers are yellow roses and blue delphiniums to correspond. The motto, “Act well your part; there all the honor lies, may well apply to many other things you do, not simply dramatics. In addition to the honor of becoming a member of this dramatic group, the student receives a certificate, seal and membership card; and upon request, he may be granted letters of recommendation when entering college. One of the highlights of the year is the Thespian Matinee which all of the members look forward to participating in. They swoon for Tex (Bob Ginochio) in the Divine Flora. Fireplace Studios 82 STAGERS They are the men behind the scenes. No show in the Mineola High auditorium would be complete without them. We're talking about the stagers. You can’t see them work- ing the lights, pulling the curtains or setting up the scenery; nevertheless, they are indis- pensable. You might call the stagehands the unsung heroes of every stage produc- tion. A shy and self-effacing lot, they are modest but efficient in discharging their duties. Their reward? The satisfaction felt in a finely attuned performance. The high-point of the year's activities for the stagers is the school play. For The Divine Flora they gave a new coat of paint to the interior sets. With the help of Mr. Arnopol, they set up a couple of spot lights as well as a bulb to give the effect of sun- shine. But, Etta, I didn't mind being stuck; I like being stuck with you. (The Divine Flora.) — Fireplace Studio R. Stark, W. Sanchez, A. Rosati, A. Riedell, R. Butterworth, A. Ashley, R. Green, J.

Miss Beatrice Hubbard, who inspired the Business Staff to reach a new high in selling ads. Mr. Bernard Hausman, who threatened to discontinue the sale of prom tickets if his class didn't sell their quota of year- books. Mr. Ralph Wilhelm, who kept mum about the surplus in the class treasury until the assignment of yearbooks had been sold. Mr. John Jackson of the Jay Publishing Company for helping us over the snags that kept cropping up in the planning of the yearbook. Mr. Arthur Pfalzer for his fine pictures of our extra-curricular activities. Misses June and Joyce Dee for their informal shots on the campus. The Jean Sardou Studios for their cooperation and courtesy in taking the senior photographs and for sending Mr. Fala out to take pictures around school.
