MR. HOWARD HOVEY Director of the Band DEDICATION Music has made living more enjoyable for people since the prima- tive caveman first discovered how to produce tones by striking two stones together. Down through the corridors of time music has in- spired men in works of art, in deeds of kindness, even in war. In our school, too, we feel the influence of music. Walking down the hall by the auditorium sixth period, a person cannot help but hear and appreciate the results of Mr. Hovey’s untiring efforts. From the day he first came here he has given much time toward increasing and developing the opportunities for music education in Riverhead. Under his able direction the band has prospered, and now it has one of the highest ratings in the county. Mr. Hovey is known not only to those of us in school, but to every- one in the vicinity. His work with the Monday night band has been enjoyed by young and old alike. Therefore, we, the Class of ’55, dedicate our book to Mr. Hovey as a token of appreciation for the countless hours of work he has given our school and our community. 8
