THE TOTEM 193-1 BOARD OF EDUCATION EWANHAKA CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL is under the supervision of a Board of Education composed of two representatives elected from each of the surrounding school districts. These f0l1I' districts, Floral Park. Frllllklill Square. New Hyde Park and Elmont, share the expense of the central high school, and by this means are able to maintain an educational institution of the finest type. The members of the board are concerned with the course given at school, the budget required for school purposes, improvements and additions for the building. They have made possible many opportunities for student advancement which have hitherto never been offered in schools the size of Sewanhaka. Their work has resulted in Sewanhakafs recognition as an approved sec- ondary school by the New York State Board of Regents. About ten years ago, attention was first directed to the building of this high school and action was taken so that in 1926, the Commissioner of Education made an order forming a Cen- tral High School District No. 2. Soon' after this the first Board of Education was elected. The members chose Henry E. Foster president and then began the task of selecting a suitable loca- tion for the school. The present site was agreed upon to be the one most centrally located, and in 1928 the actual construction was begun. A After interviewing many candidates, the Board selected Arthur M. Croop, a graduate of Stan- ford University, as principal. He then chose the faculty, and school began September 8, 1930, with 790 pupils and a faculty of 58. In September of the second year, 1140 students were enrolled, and the Board found it neces- sary to add seven teachers to the staff. Mr. Charles Cooper, a science teacher and assistant principal, was' appointed in January the acting principal. At the same time, Mr. Wright was made assistant principal. During the summer vacation of 1932 Dr. Alva T. Stanforth received the appointment as principal. Miss Olive Bucks was added to the faculty as Dean of Girls, and Mr. Charles Coop- er became Dean of Boys. . A This year the president of the board is Mr- William McQueen of Elmont, and the legal ad- viser is Mr. Marcus Christ. The other members of the board are Henry Bauer, Elmontg Joshua Block, New Hyde Parkg Oscar P. Brion, Floral Parkg Cyril S. Cox, New Hyde Parkg Dr. George B. Davis, Floral Parkg Walter A. Elson, Franklin Squareg Frederick W. Schaefer, Franklin Squareg Ottmar Riese,.Treasurerg and J. Edwin Russell. Clerk. ' ISI- A 09, Facult DR. A. T. STANFORTH, B.S., M.A., PHD. Principal Dr. Stanforth began his teaching career in a small rural school, and rose to the position of Ward Principal. in Middletown, Ohio. After several years he trans- ferred to become principal of schools i11 Tippecanoe, and went from there to the superintendency of Indiana University. Two years ago, Dr. Stanforth came to Sewanhaka and it is hoped that he will remain here for many years to come. l9wl N! X I THE TOTEM 1934 BROWN, J OEEPH EMIUND.

She grad- uated from the University of Michigan, where she majored in history and mathematics. Miss Bucks won her master's degree in social studies at Columbia Teachers College, and later had two books which she wrote with Professor Horn pub- lished by Charles Merrill Co. She taught history and social studies in Illinois State Teachers College, and then at Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio. Two years ago, Miss Bucks came to Sewanhaka as the first Dean of Girls, and has instituted many social and extra-curriculur activities since her com- ing. She is now studying for her Doctor of Philosophy degree at New York University. t13l DEAN OF BOYS Mn. CHARLES Coom-.n Mr. Cooper was born, raised and educated in Watertown, Connecticut. He later attended Worcester Technical Institute in Worcester, Massachusetts, where he received his Degree of Bach- elor of Science in 1914-. Mr. Cooper Hurst taught school in Phil- niont, New York, and than went to teach for a year at Woodridge, New York. Chosen principal of the high school in Hilton, New York, he l'C- niained in that position over a period of years. In 1930, Mr. Cooper came to Sewan- haka as a science teacher, and. has re- mained ever since that time. During a period in 1932, he was Acting Prin- cipal of the school, and since that time has been appointed Dean of Boys, which position he now occupies.

Edward, Bush was elected to this very re- sponsible position, and he, with Mr. Ny- wiede, the Junior class adviser, began at once to assemble the different staffs for the book. The photographic staff, composed of w I EDWARD J. BUSH ffl Editor-in-Chief it QWAL John Bellemente, Ralph Erb, William Alones, Edward Schmidt and Carlas Maralas, chose Albert Renz to supervise the taking of pictures for the Totem, while the position of art editor went to Robert Peterson, who had under him John Herman, June Cox, Joseph Marino, Jeanne Mc- Kenna, June Eitzen, Donald Houghton and Janis Thurston. Ulive Plunkett was chosen literary editor, and it is due to the efforts of her staff, including Isabella Oppel, Anna Oppel, Muriel LeCompte, Dorothy Buettner, Carol Barkelew, Rosalie Brown, Janet Kramer, Helen and Florence Froewiss, Lillian Schuttger and Dean Aungst, that the Senior write-ups are in verse this year. Another innovation this year appeared in the form of a'Social section, which has been capably prepared by Virginia Wegener. social editor. The diliicult business management was placed in the hands of Charles Roberts by Anthony Grygo, Dorothy Christman, Henry Krutosik and Edith Gregorious. Dorothy Clemens was elected advertising manager by her staff, Lois Graubau, Beverly Patterson and Robert Ross. Dorothy Rueter and Edward Nickel were chosen girls' andiboys, sport editors respectively. l15l T H IC T U T IC M l 9 3 4 THE TOTEM ADVISERS E, the stad of the 193-L Totem, wish to thank the following faculty members for their assistance to us in our work.

' p 'T F L! t m HIS year seems a special one, for the graduating class of 1934- is the first to have completed the four-year course given in Sewanhaka. The members en- tered our halls as insignificant freshmen, in t11e fall of 1930, little knowing what was in store for them. Early in the school year they elected their class oliicers: Robert Baumann, presi- dent, Jeannette Parry, vice-presidentg Edward Rudolph, treasurer, Mae Skoggard, secretaryg Hedwig Eitzen and Clara Sherman, representatives to the Student Council. The activities of their freshmen year were a Thanksgiving Masquerade, two assembly programs, and an informal Spring Hop. So the initial year rolled by. In addition to a Valentine assembly, the important functions of the sophomores were a Christmas dance, a tea dance on lVlarch 4, and a formal soiree held May 13. The class officers for this year were Edward Rudolph, presidentg Robert Baumann, vice-presidentg Paul Slawter, secretary, Mae Skoggard, treasurer. Arthur Kurlh and Clara Sherman were the Student Council representatives. Thus half of their high school career was completed. Charles Goff -was elected president for the junior year, and the other oliicers were Archer Starace, vice-president, Hedwig Eitzen, secretary, Pearl Hansen, treas- urer. Later Stanley Rehm succeeded Archer Starace in the vice-presidency. For the third time Clara Sherman was chosen Council representative, while Paul Slawter also served in that capacity. The prominent social events of this year were a Hard Luck ,party held on Friday, the thirteenth of January, and the .lunior Prom, which willqlong be recalled by the many who enjoyed the hospitality of the Juniors on that occasion. - The junior girls received first place in the soccer and archery tournaments and ian second in hockey and basketball competition. The outstanding accomplishment of this year was the publishing of the 1933 Totem. At the first senior meeting the class once more elected Robert Baumann presi- dent. Howard Westphal was chosen vice-president, Carl Burmann, treasurer, and Hedwig Eitzen, secretary. The seniors started this year with an Armistice Dance on November 10. They will hold their Senior ball in June. This year there is an inno- vation in that the first graduation Baccalaureate service will be held. Dr. Frank Blodgett, President of Adelphi College, will be the speaker. Another new feature appears in the type of commencement. Instead of having outside speakers or student orators, this year's commencement will consist of demonstrations of each of the six departments in school: art, science, physical e.ducation, social science, music and mathematics. l13l X Class Fortune or Class of 1934+ Class leader ................

Entering the building they noticed HEAVEN ONLY KNOWS how many Frosh, standing around with ALICE IN WONDERLAND looks on their faces. SUDDENLY a student guide offered to help the newcomers, and they thanked him with YOU,RE SUCH A COMFORT TO ME. ' . As Sammy entered class- the teacher said Coon MORNING, GLORY but when she, gave the homework assignment Sam wished he were in THE HARBOR OF HOME SWEET HOME. Came a knock on the door, and the sad face of an old grad sighed DON,T YOU' RE- MEMBER ME? I Next day our hero yielded to MY TEMPTATION and didn't do his assignment, so when the teacher asked him if he left it home he replied I'D BE TELLING A LIE. Guessing that he was ONLY FOOLINO she told him I KNOW YOU,RE LYING BUT I LOVE IT. Down to the oflice Sammy was sent, and there saw Mr. Wright conducting a LAST ROUND-UP of students who cut classes. OLD PAPPY Stanforth ap- peared and bid him to COME A LITTLE CLOSER, and when they were ALONE TOGETHER the principal inquired WII.AT IS THERE T0 SAY? With not one snappy wisecrack to help him, Sam heard the words YOU,RE IN MY POWER, so when DAY IS DONE report to detention and don't forget that you GOTTA GO. Sighing resignedly, Sam muttered THERE's ALWAYS TOMORROW. ' In the ofiice he had noticed that it was ONE MINUTE TO ONF so he joined the stampede to the lunchroom. Up in the- front Miss Wesp was crooning her Lunchroom Lullaby, LET,S HAVE ANOTHER CUP OF COFFEE3 but after tasting the wares Sam told her that he JUST COULnN'T TAKE IT, BABY.

That competence was shown in electing oliicers for the class is proven in the selection of Kenneth Skidmore, president, Josephine Copeland, 'vice-presidenkg' Elizabeth Burmann, secretaryg Helen Lane, treasurer. The Junioris calendar was filled with social and athletic functions. They opened their social season with a highly successful Barn Dance held in November. With the ever-present apples, cider and sinkers, it will long be remembered as a very enjoyable event. The class ended the year with the first formal affair they have sponsored since their entrance, the Junior Prom. Here the fun-loving Juniors and their friends enjoyed themselves to the limit, and made promises of more of these good times when they are Seniors. Perhaps it would be well to look back and review the history of the Junior Class. Upon their entrance in 1931 as shy l?J Freshmen, they elected William Irwin, president, June Eitzen, vice president, William Robinson, secretaryg Herbert Har- rison, treasurer, Robert Stone, Rosalie Brown and Robert Shaw, representatives to the Student Council. First a Lincoln Tea Dance in February, and then a dance in May made the upper classmen take notice of the Frosh.', As sophomores in 1932, the class elected John Considine, president, Edgar Gassin, vice president, Helen Duncan, secretary, Dorothy Christmanng Rosalie Brown and Robert Stone, Student Council representatives. Their Sport Dance was one of the most popular and successful events of the year. The girls won the intra-mural basketball title, and the boys captured the first, place in basketball and foul shooting. This year, the class entered upon the momentous enterprise of publishing the school year book, The Totem. They deserve to be complimented on their fine work, for it is a diliicult task to edit the publication which you are now reading. i501 .Af-1 f fx 0,1 Y 1' . fr' . -,Mrwv MW X WM WWW ,A f , ! . ,' 'ifo-r1cM1o:i4 l WW 9 l511 445 A sight for sore eyes.

During their first year they were prominent in both the athletic and social activities of the school. Members of the class, bolh boys and girls, made places on all the school teams. The one social event of the year was a very entertaining Hallowe'en masquerade party. Their class play given in assembly gained for them the admiration of thc entire schoolg and the Freshman Band, under the direction of Mr. Hill, proved to be a well organized unit for those interested in musie.'

The two represe..tatives and the olliiers at once began to arrange with the Coun- cil for the social calendar of the class. Their efforts resulted in a New Year's Dance held in the gym, whieh was an enjoyable event and provel that the Sophs had left their Freshmen days behind them and were fair competitors against the upper classes. The other important function of the past year sponsored by the Sophomores was a lea dance held in March. All in all, tl1e class of 1936 ijoyed a wo derful school year, and with half of their high school days yet to come, ever ne is looking forward to great accomplish- ments from them.

Miss Bucks, Mr. Cooper and class advisers are social directors of the school. Home room teachers assist the student entertainment committee. The Student Coun- cil acts as an advisory body, recommending regulations and supervising with the committee, class and club activities. A general date calendar is made out at the beginning of the term by Miss Bucks, Mr. Cooper and class advisers. The Student Council has appointed a committee to set the dates for minor affairs. This committee consists of Jeannette Parry, chair- man, Benny Hudela and Kenneth Skidmore. Twelve o'clock has been set for the closing of dances,.thc .lunior Prom' and Senior Ball excepted, with permission to close at one o'clock. Class parties close at eleven o'clock. Clubs have been given permission to hold one afternoon affair in school, and as many outside, as they may desire, in addition to their meetings. Each class usually gives two large functions during the year. Last spring the seniors gave their annual ball, a semi-formal affair, on June 23g it was one of the important functions of the year. The junior class gave their yearly Prom on June 9, and guests gaily danced in a Hower-festooned gym. This year the Freshmen gave a Halloweien Party. The Seniors came next on the social calendar. sponsoring an Armistice Dance on November 10. In addition toldancing, entertainment was provided by several talented students of Sewanhaka. The Juniors followed with a Barn Dance on November 24g to say that a good time was had by all would hardly cover the hilarious enioyment of all present. The Sophomore class gave a dance on January 5, and initiated some different ideas in decoration, the gym being arranged as a night club. Many clubs have taken advantage of the roller skating fad by visiting the rink at Mineola. The German Club has held two such parties, also the Junior Varsity and Varsitv Glee Clubs. The Student Council gave a skating and dancing party on February 2. which closed bv special permission of the directors at twelve-thirty. The Commercial Club and Girls' Hall Squad contributed to the Christmas festivities with parties, and so brought to a close the social season of Sewanhaka for the year. l73l' THE TOTEM 1984 A CHAMPS ADVICE So, he beat you, Son, and you,re feeling qblue And you,re bleeding and battered too- So, he won the garne5 and took your crown, And the crowd that cheered--has let you down So you're left behind, to ponder alone, You're remembering the fights that you ue won, You never had counted on losing tonight- And you're-wondering why, I know, Son.

FOOTBALL SQUAD EWANHAKA'S 1933 Football Team started the season Saturday, September 23, by defeating a much heavier, more experienced alumni, 7-0. In the first lnterscholastic contest of the season the Indians traveled to Lynbrook to earn a 13-O victory. On the following Saturday the Sewanhaka Eleven overwhelmed a much inferior Smithtown aggregation to the tune of 19-6. In what was probably the hardest fought con- test of the season Sewanhaka traveled to Baldwin and engaged the victor by the close score of 7 to 6. With the breaks against her, in the next game, the Warriors were held to a one touchdown victory in defeating Bayshore 6 to 0. On the following Saturday the Indian Eleven traveled to Oakdale to meet the cadets of the La Salle Military Academy in a 0 to 0 draw. Suffering her only defeat of the season, Sewanhaka bowed to her traditional rival Chaminade, to the score of 13 to 0, ing a contest that was played ankle deep in mud. Ending her season in a blaze of glory, our Alma Mater shut out Jamaica 36-0 in their annual Thanksgiving Day contest.

G uard Hornberger ....... ................. G uurd While the '33-'34 quintet did not break any county records or win any championships, it had the distinction of being the most successful basketball team yet to go down in the history of Sewanhaka High School. Eight victories out of eighteen games, a run of five straight victories, and a total point score of 380, all set records for future court squads to aim at. Of the games lost, five of them were by four points or less, while two were dropped in the final minute of play and one game was lost in an overtime period. In only three games did the opposition have more than a ten-point lead, and in three games Sewanhaka ended nine or more points ahead. Not forgetting the coach, to whom goes the greater part of the credit, .lake Klein, captain of the team, finished first with seventy-five points, while John Ward was second with sixty-five and Jack Lindsay third with sixty-three. Klein takes the honor of being the most consistent player, missing only the Alumni game and failing to score in but one game in which he played. Ho also made the highest individual score in a single gamr+twelve points, against Great Neck. i791 Popl Al Renz knocks out one of the hits which enabled the Indians to score so many runs during the season.

Manager HE Purple and Wllite Baseball Team won 5 and lost 6 games during the course of the 1933 season. The team defeated Manhasset L2 gamesj, Nassau Collegiate Center, Long Beach and Freeport. They also lost to the following teams: Lawrence, Jamaica, Chaminade Q2 gameslt, Brooklyn Prep, and the first game with Freeport. The lndian nine, under the leadership ol' Coach Al Kumerow, completed what may be termed a successful season when one realizes that the team was composed largely of newcomers. The team suffered a great loss when all but three mem- bers graduated and one of these three became in- eligible because of poor scholarship. The burden of Sewanhaka's pitching fell upon Manny Pearlmutter and Harry Sniffen. The Warriors have three prospective pitchers in the form of Johnny Jacobcheck, t'Lefty Ananicz, and Frank McCann who have shown promise of becoming future mound stars. It is hoped that they will be able to fill the places vacated by Dex Boerkle and .lack Langan, who carried their team to victory so often in former years. The fielding was handled by Captain O'Keefe, Frank Pietrowski and Carl Cas- toldi, all of whom gave creditable performances. The infield was generally composed of Lefty Ananicz at first, Parky', Pel- legrino at second, Joe Riedman at shorts-top and Eddie Le Compte or Johnny Ward at third. Jake Klein, one of the few veterans of the team, held his usual place behind the bat.

The team won three matchesg lost three, and tied one. llox-fever, with mostly all of the boys returning next year, the outlook for the 1934-35 team is bright. Victories were earned over Lynbrook Q25 and Valley Stream, while the team suffered losses at the hands of Oceanside Q23 and Great Neck. HN, . . ..

With such players as Captain Sig Lynner playing No. 1 singlesg Herb Jones playing No. 2 singlesgg Clint Hen drieksnn playing No. 3 singles: and last, but not least, those two steady doubles players, Bill' Miller and Harold Walker, the Purple and White forces compiled an enviable record. i831 , L Corning out of the holes in a fairly even start.

The individual tournament was won by Kathleen Petty, a Junior, who was outstanding in last year-'s eompetiliong the 4-lass tournament was also won by the Junior class. The Senior girls' class basketball team were the undefeated champions this year. In one game the Juniors made a score of 44 points, attaining the highest score made by any team. Mu- riel Dougherty captained the victorious senior squad, while June Eitzen led the Juniors, Jean Clarahan the Sophomores, and Miriam Petry the Freslnnen. . l36i s is w Q 51244 , IW e 'rn1+:'ro'r1cM.193 . BJ GIRLS' HIT-PIN-BASEBALL Miss HUBBARD, COACH K Hit-pin-baseball was again considered one of the most popular spring sports. The Juniors emerged the winners after many hard-fought battles. The Seniors ranked second and the Fresh- men and Sophomores were lied for third place. GIRLS' VOLLEY BALL Miss HUBBARD, COACH A tie play-off, played between the Juniors and Seniors, marked the ending of the volley ball season with the Seniors as victors. The Freshmen and Sophomores were tied for second place. Throughout all the games the tension of the Juniors and Seniors for first place and the Fresh- men and Sophumores for second, was greatly tightened. i371 THE TOTEM 1934 GIRLS' SOCCER . The Seniors recaptured their luurels again this year by winning the soccer tournament from their nearest rivals, the Juniors. Coached by Mrs. O'Neil and captained by Stephanie Survilla. they had a very successful season. Praise should also be given to the other classes, who provided interest by keeping the competition very close. Qt! GIRLS' HOCKEY After a season of hard-fought games with the other three classes, the Senior Girls' hockey team emerged the winners under the capable leadership of their captain, Doris Cranmore. With six victories to their credit, they downed in order the Juniors, Sophotnores, and Freshmen.

HANDBALL The Fall Handball crown 'was taken by ,lake Klein. at senior of Aud. 5, who defeated Frank Kowalski of H. R. 6 in the final lllllllfll. The race for the championship was hard fought, with about fifty boys entered in the contest.

Floral Park Queens Village Hicksville THE BRIDGE BUILDER An old man, traveling a lone highway, Came at the evening, cold and gray, To a chasm dcep and wide. The old man crossed in the twilight dim, For the sullen stream held no fears for him, But he turned when he reached the other side And builded a bridge to span the tide. Old man! cried a fellow-pilgrim near, You are wasting your strength with building here, Your journey will end with the ending day And you never again will pass this way. You have crossed the chasm deep and wide, Why build you a bridge at eventide? And'the builder raised his old gray headg Good friend, on the path I have come, he said There followeth after me today A youth whose feet will pass this way. This stream whichhas been as naught to me, To that fair-haired boy may u pitfall beg He, too, must cross in the twilight dim, Good friend, I am building this bridge for l1llll.' 9 1 il 1 an u un il ' Compliments of SENIGR CLASS F0067 M Y ' F' F' 'F Mw'TFdw ' l I J.
