Each of the ten years has seen distinct changes in the improvement of your year book. The aim of the Totem is to sum- marize the events of the year and give to you a vivid picture of the student activities. The 1940 Totem dedicated to the school, has eliminated the home room group pic- tures owing to the growing inability to properly photograph them and has given lnthisissue FOREVVORD AND DEDICATION ADMINISTRATION BOARD OF EDUCATION AUXILIARY ORGANIZATIONS FACULTY CLASSES STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS SPORTS SCHOOL LIFE STORIES ,am YEARS you more informal pictures of the students at Work and play. Due to the large senior class the limited space, unfortunately, has not permitted an adequate treatment of their school achievements. YVe hope that as the parting gift to the Senior Class, the Totem will ever serve as a memory of pleasant hours spent at Se- Wanhaka. The junior Class gives you the tenth year book of Sewanhaka High School with the sincere hope that it will meet with your approval. If in the future this Totem will recall the ideals of Sewanhaka and act as an inspiration to greater things, We will indeed have achieved our purpose. Dedication HE Junior class takes pleasure in dedicating the 1940 Totem to Sewanhaka High School on her tenth anniversary. T o those who have been with Sewanhaka since its beginning, it must have seemed a very short period. Our school has lived up to the old adage of improving with age. Sewan- haka itself, the library, our athletic equipment, and an enlarged curriculum are only a few of the many transformations seen at Sewanhaka within the past ten years. May Sewanhaka move onward to further success and worthwhile achievement. HIXIQOLID lVR1GHT Assislmzi Pr1'nripr1I R. STANFORTHS extensive and varied ex! perience as an educator naturally has helped to mold his philosophy of education, which today is the keystone of Sewanhaka. This philosophy put into words states: En- courage students to assume as much direction over their own lives as possible. A portion of the pledge taken at commencement by the Seniors, expresses the desire for morally strong citizens of the future: ln keeping with the teachings of Sewanhaka, may I throughout life be tolerant of the faults of others-and become an efhcient citizen in my community, state and nation!

ITH the election of class ollicers the Seniors embarked upon their linal year at Sewanhaka. They are: Presi- dent, Arthur Iirbg Vice-president, Lillian Ennis, Secre- tary, Kathryn Gibling Treasurer, Donald Pleille. The Seniors began their social season with the annual lVinter Dance. The music of Jimmy XValker's l'Blue Blazers, an all negro band was the highlight of this year's dance. In January the senior girls held a reception for their mothers. The boys and their fathers, not to be outdone, had a wget-together in February. They were entertained by the Sewanhaka Swing Band, the Boys, Glee Club and a Quiz under the direction of alfable Edward O,Brien. The Senior Play, always one of the year's highlights, was an unusual success. The 1 940 production was Clifford Goldsmith's hilarious comedy, What a Life with John Kilbridge portraying the mischievous Henry Aldrich. Following the annual Senior Ball which was held on the twenty-first of June, the Seniors concluded their high school careers by walking, with somewhat shaky feelings. the graduation platform in the presence of their parents and friends. 13 My , -av' fs., 1'--wp 19A f' 'fvfsr' if fa gem .5515 fx ,,.

Those chosen were: President, George Martinig Vice-president, Donald XVeston3 Secretary, Mildred Muller, Treasurer, Philip Gorman. Last fall two representatives from each homeroom, the oflicers and class advisers, formed a Junior Council. This council planned the class policies and activities for the year ahead. Once a month the Juniors held a meeting atwhich they dis- cussed coming class events and were entertained with varied pro- grams. Early in the year, a lecture and movie pertaining to the work of the Red Cross, was presented. The Football Rally Dance in November was the hrst social function of the class. This dance is an annual allair of the third year students, held before the most important game of the season to encourage our team to 99 The J llllllll ClElSS Abozm: George Martini, Donald XVeston, Mildred Muller, Philip Gorman.

The Junior Tea Dance in December was a social success, enthusiastically attended by the student body. Last February the Sachem Players obligingly produced 'KA Day at the Blakesn lor a junior assembly. In March, Henry Scott an unusual pianist, gave an outstanding performance which brought loud applause front his audience. The hundred piece Varsity Band and the Sewanhaka Swing Band by popular request, played at several -Iunior Class meetings. Another eyent, in March was the reception the boys held for their Dads, who became better acquainted with Sewanhaka activities, The girls, not to be outdone, entertained their Mothers at an afternoon tea. Each year the Juniors undertake the job of publishing this book, which is a parting gift to the Senior Class, recording their school activities. Another Junior tradition is the purchase of class jewelry which this year was a ring bearing the likeness of a Chiel'tain's head. Early in April, thirty juniors, whose school records were out- standing, were admitted into the Sewanhaka chapter of the National Honor Society. ln May the Red Letter event. of the year, tl1CJUlll01'P1'O1l1, was held in Stanforth Hall. It was of course, the traditional success and final social function of the Junior calendar. And now in closing may we become a little sentimental and as the Seniors ol Tomorrow, wish all good things to the Seniors of Today, Seniors who have been such fine and friendly schoolmates to us for three years. 30 A future president?

The ofhcers chosen in June were: President, John Reamerg Vice-president, Asty Erlageng Secretary, Bessie Burden 5 Treasurer, Donald Alexander. The four ofhcers and members of the Sophomore Board with the help of the class advisers supervised and directed the activities of the class for the year. A Fall Tea Dance, which was held in November was first on the Sophs' program. This, as in the past, proved to be a success both socially and financially. A new plan for assemblies Was introduced during the year. Instead of having the usual combined assemblies, the Sophomore girls attended separate meetings at which things of interest to the feminine heart were stressed, while the boys enjoyed programs devoted to athletics and other masculine activities.

Now, liavc you rt-:ul This year the Sophs sponsored a unique and colorful bulletin board. Because of the unusual interest in the display, not only by the members of the class but the upperclassmen as well, the Sophs received highest recog- nition from the faculty for their work. On May 2, the Sophornores and inany guests danced 33 N!! sf af to the sweet strains of the Kingsmen at the annual Soph Hop, the biggest event on the Sophomore social calendar. Following the dance the next event on the program was the evening reception for the parents. Planned by Miss Carboni, it gave the parents a chance to become acquainted with the activities of their sons and daughters. From all appearances both the parents and students seemed to have gained much enjoyment from the affair. The election of oflicers for the next year ended the activities of a class that contributed much to the school in the Way of scholarship, social life and good citizenship. All set, Let's go!

Tllll FFBSIIIIIHII N a bright and sunny morning early in September, a slightly bewildered yet aggressive looking group enter- ed the stately portals of Sewanhalca. Who were these new- comers? Why, the Frisky Frosh of course. The Frosh wasted no time in organizing. They im- mediately elected as oflicers: President, joseph Ingarra, Vice-president, Harold VVattsg Secretary, Francis Best, Treasurer, Thecla Adams. The class oflicers and the Student Council representatives under the direction of the class advisers, Mr. Eklund and Miss Gladys Reed, supervised all the activities of the class. The Freshman social season was highlighted by the animal Frosh Halloween Party. At this event the fresh- men were given an opportunity not only to enjoy the dancing and other kinds of informal entertainment but also to gain the friendship of their fellow classmates. Following the party the Frosh enjoyed several suc- cessful assembly programs. These included a Professor Quiz show in which the boys proved their mental 35 He's not arguing, It's ping pong. superiority, and a musical program pre- sented by the Band and a Freshman talent show. A reception for the parents held on May 8, concluded the activities of the class. This gave the parents a chance to meet the people who had supervised the Pick up my fiddle and bon Hll1St activities of their sons and daughters during the past year. The Freshmen were tops in the matter of service, cooperation and scholarship, and with one successful year behind them they should go to new heights as Sophomores. Music hath charms.

FORTISSHE Y 1 F3 PM! fs Socnsrw' f fffwb THE STUDENT UUUNGIL HE Student Council, in cooperation with Dr. Stanforth, acts as a means of commu- nication and coordination between the Ad- ministration and the student body. This year the bicaineral system of legislation was introduced. This system provides for the Council over which the President presides, and the House, over which the Vice-president pre- sides. The Council members are appointed through class election, while the members of the House are elected by the home rooms. The activities of the Council deal with all legislation, except financial, such as the rati- hcation of club constitutions, while the powers ol the House are limited to financial matters such as the granting of concessions at school dances. To hnanee the purchase of letters and pins to be presented to outstanding students, the Student Council sponsors the annual Purple and XVhite Ball, the Bazaar, the sale of Sewan- haka PCITIIHIHS and many other projects. The officers are: President, Edward O'Brieng Vice-President, Eleanor Millerg Secretary, Ar- thur Rossg Treasurer, Mary Ann Traskg Ad- visers, Mr. Charles Cooper and Mrs. Florence Utter. STUDENT GUURT HILE Sewanhaka is celebrating its tenth anniversary, the Student Court is honoring its fifth. The chief reason for the existence of the Student Court is that it gives the student experience in self-government. Because of student government each person has an opportunity for self-expression and the promotion of his ideas or opinions. Any defendant has the privilege of choosing trial by jury or by the Senior Judge and the two Junior Judges. In the early part of this year the Student Council con- solidated various student organizations under one consti- tution. This was done to bring about closer cooperation which in turn would benefit the entire school. The Court officers for the past year were Senior Judge, Joseph Goldzang, Junior Judges, jane Dorsey and Joseph Christopherg Defense Attorneys, Florence Korman, Robert Gordon, Court Clerk, Calvin Burtisg Prosecuting Attorney, Romine Poirot, Assistant Prosecuting Attor- neys, Chris Cunningham.

It also includes the taking of the pictures, the printing and then the binding. Bruce Althoff, the Editor, worked on this phase of the yearbook under Mr. Clark's direction. This is the fifth year for Mr. Aungst as Literary Adviser. His task is the supervision of all the Writeups for the various organizations. This year all the members of the Literary Staff did excellent work so it was felt to be unfair to choose one of them as editor. They Were: John Ginsler, Vera Walsh, Charlotte Baden, Margaret Davidson, Ruth Kal- lenberg, Percy Schuberth, Viola Dansereau and John Kilbride who sup- plied Varsity sports information. The Photography Staff actually does more than the name might imply. They took the candid shots but they also worked on the actual makeup of the pages, that is arranging and organizing each page with its pictures and Writeups. The members were: Editor, Robert Welander, David Benedict, Joan Demand, Carshialita Draghi, Audrey Jensen, Roy Fink and Edward McCabe. Of course, actually putting the book together is only part of the job. Advertising to help pay for it must be solicited. This year three hundred dollars was collected from advertisers. Mr. Novak is the adviser, Fay Nicholl, Virginia Eich, Sybil Seymour, the staff. Last, but not least by any means, is the Sales Staff. The work of this group is to sell the book to the students and collect the money. This year, sales were not as good as previously, the Freshmen response being the poorest of the four classes. Mr. George Allen is the adviser of this group which is made up of: Manager, Margaret Cosenza, Vera Walsh, Michael Grobeck, Mary Kinney, Alice Hargreaves, Robert Stork, Henry Burlage, Lillian Fletcher and Doris Anderson. All drawings were made by Arthur Fuss. 43 THE MEANING UF SEWANHAKA AVE you ever wondered why your school was called Sewanhaka and what it means? Have you stammered and blushed when friends have asked you these questions and you, a Sewanhakan, have been unable to en- lighten them? lVell, rejoice, for here is the explanation. Hfhen the Board of Education was con- fronted with the always dillicult problem of choosing a suitable name for our school they decided on one of Indian origin, Sewanhaka. The reason for this choice was that Sewanhaka had been the original name of Long Island, the island described as lying with its head TWIHLEHS This new group, an addition to the Band, made their first marching appearance at the dedication ceremonies on the opening day of the YVorld's Fair. They also appeared in two band concerts. The members are: Leader, Elinor Fox, .lane Kaminski, Gloria Goya, Mary Carolla, Caro- line Putits, Dorothy VVitkin, Betty Cunning- haing Director, Mr. Hill. touching New York Harbor, and the tip of its tail stretching to the ocean. The word Sewan- haka translated means an island of shells. The name ever serves as a reminder of the past and a proper tribute to those who roamed the hunting grounds before our European ancestors came. l'Ve hope that this name throughout the coming years will echo the good spirit and truth which is Sewanhaka's. More about the ancient island of Sewan- haka and its people is included in House By the Sea, a new book by Hildegarde Hoyte Swift and bought by the Library Club. Seymour Scoop Rosenberg THE GHIEFTAIN NCE again the Chieftain has proved itself outstanding by win- ning as medalist at the Columbia Annual Press Conference. This is the highest honor possible to bestow upon a school news- paper. Every two weeks the Chieftain is eagerly read by the student body.

Each Christmas the Chieftain awards three dollars to the writer of the best short Christmas story. Last fall the staff gave a party for the circulation department. The banquet held for all alumni Chieftain members in the spring was the outstanding social event of their successful year. On june ll the combined staffs of the Chieftain and the To- tem held their first banquet at the Stewart Manor Country Club.

Contests have helped to stimulate the growth and interest in band music. In 1931 the band won a first division rating at Madison Square Garden and in 1935 won the New York City con- test. In 1936 they competed at Cleveland, placing in the third division. The marching band has played at Baker Field for Columbia football games and twice in 1939 at the World's Fair. Five operettas have been presented, including the Mikado and Pinafore. Ten vocal groups including the choir and glee clubs, meet the varied needs of a large group of students. Members of the Opera Guild have attended Metropolitan Opera performances. The orchestra has been fortunate to have among its members several outstanding violin soloists. This group has appeared on numerous programs and presented several small ensemble groups at community affairs. Student and community interest in music is at a new high level. Summer Band Concerts and Sunday Concerts have been well attended. Mr. Hill very generously contributed the above Writeup briefly outlining the history of the music organizations at Sewan- haka. May we add a few comments of our own. Speaking for the Class of 1941, and we believe the entire school, we wish to express our appreciation for the opportunities offered Sewan- hakans in the various glee clubs, orchestra and band, to develop their musical talents. May we also express our thanks to those students who by their singing and playing have added to the prestige of our school, have added enthusiasm and pep to foot- ball games, assemblies, et cetera, and have helped to stimulate school spirit in general. We are proud of our musicians and singers and wish great things for them in the years to come. Best wishes for continued success from the Class of 1941. 50 CHARLES HILL K.-XTHIEIZN DONOGHUE REINO AHLINIAN Band N its ioth anniversary tl1e Band has achieved its goal of one hundred members.

ERHAPS the best way t0 highlight the changes in the development of Sewanhaka during the past decade, would be to quote from a publication of bygone years. From the 1931 Totem- In the fall the Seniors were asigned to three separate homerooms. Later on they were all grouped together in one homeroom, Study Hall A. The Brst graduating class of Sewanhaka High School will be composed of seventy students. June, 1940 there are more than five hundred. To draw the comparison further, in September 1930 seven hundred and ninety students were enrolled while exactly ten years later there were more than twenty-five hundred. Sixty-six persons com- prised the facultyg today there are more than ninety. That first year there were thirteen extracurricular clubs, while today there are approximately forty. Ah yes, the good old days, when a student knew most if not all of his own classmates. Let's see, the 1940 gaduates were then think- ing of their dolls and toys. And why not, since they were 54 .....S1III Compounding a concen trated concoction. Qlllwlllg Sprouting wings The 4:3 jam session only in the second or third grades. The passing years brought changes. As the district grew in population, so did Sewanhaka, and today Where once were parking spaces are now the new wings of the building. lVhat was once a four page Chieftain printed at Sewanhaka, is now a six or eight page championship school paper. What was once a simple, easily-put-together Totem, has become a complicated, ambitious volume. What was once a Band of thirty-two members, is now one three times that size. What was once a curriculum of T , Vl- 55 Hlonien and Children Hrst. sixty subjects, has become well over a hundred and fifty. Thus from little acorns do the giant oak trees grow. The one year of Sewanhaka's ten, which stands out in point of growth and Change was 1937. It was this year which saw the completion of the addittions to the original building, increasing its capacity approximately forty per 66 Ma, he's making eyes at her. cent. Vocational and industrial shop work was extended. New shops, well equipped, were opened and new subjects added. These included automobile mechanics, aeronau- tics, sheet metal, woodworking, vocational agriculture and technical electricity. In 1937 the old Music Room became a new Cafeteria, the original Study Hall B and the Council Room became part of the enlarged library. Other changes and improvements have taken place in the intervening three years but in this short review it is impossible to touch upon all of them. Suflice it to say that the expanding school curriculum, the growing adult edu- cation program et cetera, are all indications of the vital part Sewanhaka is playing in the communitv life and welfare. 6 7 SPURTSMANSHIP by jack Kilbride Jim Crowley, football coach at Ford- ham University, told a story to me that rates repeating. lt was in my senior year at Notre Dame and the Fighting Irish were play- ing Nebraska, began jimmy. A'One Cornhusker was bigger than the next and Rockne's lads seemed to be in for a terrific beating. During the second period Notre Dame had gained possession of the ball in Nebraska territory. The South Benders shifted to the right, and Crowley, a back- field man, started off tackle with the ball. Looming before him was a big Nebraska tackle, which Jim describes as having eyes like saucers, two teeth in his mouth and weighing about 225 poundsf, and thus Crowley was prepared to be thrown for a large loss. Suddenly little Elmer Layden, now a coach at Notre Dame, hurled his body through the air and took out the big Nebraska man very em- phatically. jimmy became so invigorated at the sight of that Nebraska tackle lying on the ground with tiny Layden on top of him, that he sped through the hole in the line for a big gain. i'That storyf' claims Sleepy James, shows how football helps develop friendships between the different players. Boy, I was Elmer's pal for life 'after he had done that bit of blocking' for me. Later in the same game, an almost identical play happened with the char- acters reversed. This time it was Layden who got the ball and it was Layden who started for the Cornhusker tackle on the opposite side of the line. A Nebraska man again broke through, as big as the first one. He had only one tooth in his mouth. He had eyes like plates and hands like the grips on a steam shovel. Crowley could see by the look in Lay- denis eyes that he had a hunch what was in store for him. Well, Jimmy remem- bered what Layden had done for him in the first half and he decided to do the same for Elmer. However, Jim got a last minute look at the charging Nebraskan and thought of his own poor little body after he had blocked him out. So he made a nice try, but missed the block completely, on purpose. Well, says Jim, when Elmer got up, about three minutes later and about io or 15 yards behind the line of scrim- mage, he was mad. How he wished that O'Grady was playing left half instead of Crowleyf' Because of that little incident, O'Grady was Layden's pal for quite some time to come. That is an example of how friendships are made between the players and the substitutes.

Against the undefeated Long Beach squad the Purple and White rolled up a score of 38-o. But the season's highlight was the mutilation of the arch rival Chaminade to the tune of 37-6 on Elec- tion Day. Freeport's Scarlet Hurricane was too much for the Braves in their final tilt however, and they finished at the short end of a 24-O score. The team was coached by Alfred Kumerow, assisted by Sigmund Sluszka. HHEMEMBEHH Un Election Day a crowd of live thousand fans Watched Sewanhaka Hatten their traditional rival Chaminade 37-6. Wlith four touchdowns in the last quarter the Braves turned what had been up to that point a close contest, into a rout. Leading 13-6, the Indians went on a scoring spree that left the Flyers disheartened. Bill Smith made the outstanding run of the day when he intercepted a Chaminade pass ancl gal- loped seventy yards to the goal line. L V.FUUTBALL L.-XYING a four game schedule, the junior Varsity squad failed to Win a game but they did do one thing that their predecessors had not done for over a yearg they scored a touchdown. The Papooses opened their short schedule by bowing to Chaminade 13-6, on the Mineola turf. Next came a 6-o defeat by Lawrence and then a mutilating by Hempstead. Returning home for the final game of the year, the scrubs were unable to stop the high flying Flyers of fn, ,Y One out two to go. 73 Chaminade from scoring a 26-o triumph this time. The team had no outstanding stars but it is felt that they had the brief experi- ence that will make them of varsity calibre this coming fall. BASKETBALL HE squad looked green in scoring a 20-1 7 victory over the Hempstead Tigers on opening day but came back a few nights later to drop a 31-30 deci- sion to the Freeport Red Devils. The squad came through with two victories, dropped another before Christmas. Three times in the new year the Indians broke former records for points scored in one game. The first came via a 40-23 win over Great Neck, fol- lowed by a 41-QQ decision over Hempstead and a smashing G2-14 over Farmingdale. The final game saw the Braves lose their chance at the Nassau court tournament to the Chaminade Flyers by one point. Captain Joe Gutierrez missed by one point of breaking the record which he set a year ago, aver- aging 8.67 points per game. Jack Hamberg, Jerry Snilfen, Mfalter Troy and Bill Harrison followed their captain in that order in scoring.

RIFLE TEAM Although from the standpoint ol' matches won and lost the 1939-40 season was not scrolled on the Sewanhaka Rifle Tean1's ledger in letters of iire, the members of the team were given an excellent chance to develop their markmanship and compete in actual competi- tion. The team participated in the Nassau Interscholastic Rille League, winning two matches while losing ten. Al Heuer captained the team and Hnished the season with the excellent average of 98.5. The advisers are Mr. Hayward and Mr. Skid- more. TRACK N two meets held before May 1, the Sewanhaka track team split even with a win and a loss. The Cindermen opened their short season with a 60-49 victory over VVestbury in a dual meet at the latter's oval. Sewanhaka captured nine Firsts to win handily. In their only showing before a home crowd, Sewanhaka lost a 51W to 435 decision to Freeport. In the track events the Indians proved superior but lost out because of weak Held participants. Individuals did much better than in the past. Mike Greco, a freshman, showed excellent possibilities for the replacement of Adolph Harden, YVilliam Barnes ran some ol' the best times in the county at the 440. Other ace performers were Theodore Richard and YVillia1n Potts in the loo yard sprintg Jacob Bur- mann and Bernie Distler in the hurdles, James Cosgrove in the 220, George Aekerson in the shotput and Burmann in the broad jump. Coach-Caine. 78 XVith the greatest of ease. E E 3 GIRLS' ATHLETICS EWANHAKA offers her girls a wide range of sports from which to choose a seasonal sport in which she can parti- cipate, learning by playing and coaching. VVhen the student chooses a sport, she should keep in mind her needs and desires as well as her physical capacity. Leaving Sewanhaka at the end of her four years, a girl can know the joy of sports but she can also know the .joy of doing them well. This program provides horseback rid- ing, archery, soccer, field ball, hockey, tennis and badminton, in the fall. During the winter season ping pong, swimming, archery, basketball, volley ball, tumb- ling, bowling and fencing are the activi- ties. Outside again in the spring the program extends the lessons in tennis, badminton, archery, riding and soft ball. C -'41 ' 2 KJ' as 525 C ' IM :C ,Q iiit HIS year the Sophomore girls walked away with the basketball champion- ship with the Seniors close behind. The spirit and good sportsmanship that was evident are some reasons for the Sopho- mores, victory. Other classes will find it diilicult to defeat the Sophs next year due to their excellent material, The cap- tain was Helen Meierdiercks. FENUING HIS year has produced many new sports one of which is girls' fencing. Although this is the Hrst year for fencing, there are several advanced duelists who practice aim while the beginners practice footwork, all under the direction of Miss Dorothy Stein- berg, a former Sewanhakan. Joan Demand and Gloria Mas- caroots are the managers. Rosemary Johl, Mary Carey, Francis Smith and Joan Demand are the best fencers. Hockey on the ice seems to be a solely masculine sport and hockey on the Iield a feminine sport. Since there are no varsity sports for girls at Sewan- haka, hockey is limited to intramural activity. The most diflicult thing about field hockey is learning to properly use the stick. This year there were four teams. The lirst team includes the girls who were exceptionally good and show promise of providing the opportunity for better sport next year inasmuch as many of them will not be leaving Sewanhaka this June. Members of the first team are: Cen- ter Forward, Marion Gilbridgeg Right Inner, Shirley Goetschiusg Left Inner, Helen Meierdiercksg Center Halfback, Pat Martyg Right Halfback, Rosemary Johlg Left Halfback, Audrey Goet- x N 0 :Sl ? f 2?
