TREASURER: Debbie Cohen and Lisa Friedel ADVISOR: Mr. F. Gerardi The Senior Class officers, with a few inter- ested students and a very hard-working advi- sor, and despite an extremely apathetic class, attempted to raise money through cake sales and other activities. The student-faculty bas- ketball game was successful both financially as well as socially. The goal for the year was the seniors' alternative to the usual end-of-the-year bash - a Smorgasbord held at a Beach Club - one last attempt at class unity. SOCCER 13,88 CO-CAPTAINS: Steve Wulfing and Steve Goodman COACH: Mr. A. Raynor I.V. COACH: Mr. G. Murdock The 1971 soccer season ended in bitter disap- pointment for a team that had the talent and ability to win championships. The squad had dominated its league most of the season, and was looking forward to a playoff berth as well as the division crown, but dropped three of its last four decisions and finished with an 8-4 rec- ord, in third place. In its last match, the team failed to put together a victory that would have meant the first place trophy and a chance for more: the dreams of many that had worked long and hard, vanished. Many players demonstrat- ed fine ball-playing during the season, and not few of the seniors look forward to playing in college. Among them were Steve Goodman and Steve Wulfing, goalie Bob Steinberg, and half- backs Dan Bernstein and Mark jaskowiak. Full- back Tom Satterley was named to the all-divi- sion team. SOPHOMORE CLASS p. 125 PRESIDENT: john Pucci VICE-PRESIDENT: Glen Beer SECRETARY: Ilene Kaufman TREASURER: Barbara Best ADVISOR: Mr. W. Denton This year the Sophomore Class focused its attention on different projects. One change was the ordering and receiving of class rings so that they could be worn for three years instead of two. Also undertaken were the selling of pretz- els and a spring car wash, both of which suc- cessfully added to the sophomore class' treasury. SPANISH CLUB p. 82 PRESIDENT: Shelley Rosenstock VICE-PRESIDENT: Betsy Lyons SECRETARY: Deborah Cantor TREASURER: Pat Quinlan ADVISOR: Mr. I. Fonseca This year, the Spanish Club has centered all its meetings and fund raising activities on just one goal: a trip to Spain. Forty-two members went, not as tourists, but as travellers. They lived in pensions and met the Spanish people. In addition to visiting places of historic and ar- tistic interest, the travellers spent 3 days in Se- ville during Holy Week. SPORTSMAN P- 69 CO-EDITORS-IN-CHIEF: Diane Berman and janet Maughan ASSOCIATE EDITORS: Rise Greenberg and Mike Roth ADVISOR: Mr. E. Hillman The Sportsman, the official newspaper of South Side, was published ten times this year and recorded the various activities of the stu- dent body. Articles concerned with community and political matters were also printed along with reviews of plays, movies and books. SPRING TRACK p.118 COACHES: Mr. Dowden and Mr. Kerrigan South Side's 1972 track and field team dis- played some excellent potential and had high hopes for a successful season. Many seniors, who had already won two varsity letters, re- turned to the team anxious to work hard for a winning team and some new records. Strong contributors included milers jim McCullough and Steve Figueroa, hurdlers Steve Morgan and Larry Karst, and triple jumper Tom Satterley. Pole vaulter Steve Wulfing provided many needed points, as did quarter-miler Bob Hollen- berg, and john Zoilo, whose main event was the 220 yard dash. STAGE CREW p. 61 OFFICERS: Richard Oberhofer and Paul Charkzuk ADVISOR: Mr. L. Waxman The Stage Crew built the sets and kept the stage in order for the plays and musical produc- tion given this year. Lighting and other extras were also taken care of by the members and with the help of its treasury the club made cer- tain stage repairs. Behind every dramatic pro- duction and its rehearsals the Stage Crew was an integral part of the scene. STUDENT-FACULTY SENATE p. SO CHAIRMAN: Glenn Barnes ADVISOR: Mr. P. Hardy Again this year, the Student-Faculty Senate suffered from lack of interest and concern, not only on the part of the student body in general, but also on the part of the Senate members, who gained little in the way of effectively dealing with student problems. Out of the meetings held between members, the Board of Education, and the local Administration, emerged such is- sues as the possibility of establishing a Curricu- lum Review Board, a procedure for teacher eval- uation, and student representation on the Board of Education. Also discussed were the proposals for the abolition of substitute teachers and the establishment of student lounge facilities. However, no concrete action resulted, and the future of the body was in doubt. SWIM CLUB P-114 COACH: Mr. Hopkins The Swim Club, one of South Side's newer additions, held its practices at Adelphi Univer- sity. The team, composed of both girls and boys, planned several meets. The team met twice a week to practice its skills. TENNIS P- 93 CAPTAIN: Allan Sverdlik COACH: Mr. W. Mendoza This year's Cyclone Tennis Team experi- enced a disappointing season, although they did manage to compile a 6-6 won-lost record: the competition in Division III had improved great- ly over the last few seasons. South Side, howev- . .. .-we .:auf:.1muss.1w:.r- ff ..:i.::'::mr r..f:'. i er, had many fine players on its team, including Captain Allan Sverdlik, a junior, Edmund Fran- co, a sophomore, and senior jimmy Fuller. U.N. CLUB p. 82 PRESIDENT: Iaimee Kurfirst ADVISOR: Mr. S. Galioto This year's U.N. Club met early in the year and one other time to have its yearbook photo taken. Due to lack of interest the club was in a semi-suspended state throughout the other months. In past years, this was an active group, meeting often to hear speakers and to discuss important issues. Those involved hope that next year the club will be revived. VARSITY CLUB p. 112 ADVISORS: Mr, R. Caproni and Mr. A. Raynor Varsity Club is open to all members of a var- sity sport. Among its activities during the year were the sale of candy at football games and ushering between halves at the basketball games. VOLLEYBALL p. 94 ADVISOR: Mrs. P. Piner IV. ADVISOR: Miss Mathias This year the Volleyball Team almost made it through the championships. After winning in their division, both teams went into the play- offs only to lose to Mepham in the final match. This season's leading players were Jackie Ray- nor, Suzanne Iolicoeur, and Debbie Rich. WINTER TRACK p. 117 COACHES: Mr. Dowden and Mr. L. Dreyfuss This year, for the first time, the Winter Track team recruited girls to keep and record times and act as managers. The team under its two new coaches, recorded a 7-5 won-lost mark in open, non-league competition, going against some of the best teams in the county. High hur- dler Larry Karst, relay and middle distance men Steve Morgan, Tom Satterley, and Bob Hollen- berg, and all-purpose Mike Lombardo were among the team's high scorers. Long-distance runners Steve Figueroa and jim McCullough also scored well for the Cyclones. WRESTLING p. 114 CO-CAPTAINS: Michael Ramos and Thomas Boatwright COACH: Mr. W. Piner The 1971-72 Wrestling Team, although con- stantly hampered in dual meet competition by forfeited weight classes, produced some fine individual performances, all by underclassmen. The most successful grappler on the squad was junior captain Mike Ramos, who finished with a 10-2 dual meet record, with seven victories by early pins. He won third place in the Division championship for the 135 lb. weight class. Oth- er Cyclone standouts included juniors Tom Boatwright and Steve Sagon, and sophomores Brad Wilson, Don Popper, and Chris Ramos. Coach Piner hopes that with returning letter- men and new talent the team will be a real con- tender for the league championship next year. 163

The South Side Environment Club was or- ganized three years ago in the face of a growing awareness of the many threats to man, animals, and their surroundings. This yearfs activities included a rehabilitation of the park and playground area adjoining the high school and the preparation of instruction sheets on recy- cling. The Environment Club also worked in conjuction with the Rockville Centre Environ- mental Council. FOOTBALL p. 86 CAPTAINS: Mike Spallino, Richard Murphy, and John Cassin HEAD COACH: Mr. R. Caproni ASSISTANTS: Mr. W. Piner, Mr. W. Denton, Mr. J. Kolm The South Side Football Team in 1971 of- fered some of the best football the school has seen in recent years, on their way to a 3-3 league record and a 3-5 overall mark. After dropping their first two decisions, the Cyclone squad came back and scored three straight victories, only to be defeated by the league champs in the last regular season game. Three of the team's losses were by only 1 touchdown. The club was hampered by the loss of 4 starters due to inju- ries. Mike Spallino and Gary Duffey were ac- corded all-star honors. In addition, many of the other players had good seasons and are looking forward to college play. FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA p. 77 PRESIDENT: Sherry Missan ADVISOR: Mrs. M. Kasden Through films and group discussions, the FTA attempted to delve into the subject of edu- cation. The club did not limit itself to meetings, but journeyed to C. W. Post and Hofstra to dis- cover first-hand what education was like at the college level. They took advantage of this to learn more of the educational opportunities for the disadvantaged. FTA also raised money through cake and stationery sales in order to present a member with a scholarship. GOLF p. 119 COACH: Mr. C. Mackel South Side's Golf Team, comprised mainly of underclassmen, completed the season under the watchful eyes of Coach Mackel. With the matu- rity and skill the boys have gained, Mr. Mackel is looking forward to great success next season. GYMNASTICS p. 95 CAPTAINS: Paul Marks and Steve Marks COACH: Mr. Kehl Although South Side's eight man Gymnas- tics Team did not come in first place in their di- vision, they finished with a fine record. The outstanding men on the team were Richard Sleeper, Steve Marks, Paul Marks, and Sal Saia, all of whom competed in the county matches. Although not getting any first place showings, all four did very well. The boys continued to work out after the season in preparation for next year's events. HI-LITERS p. 78 PRESIDENT: Diane Oldmixon VICE-PRESIDENT: Marian Murphy TREASURER: Ellen Seh SECRETARY: Cari Hamburger 162 ADVISOR: Miss M. Simms The Hi-liters is South Side's service organiza- tion for girls, and performs many worthwhile activities throughout the school year. The club participated in supervising a Special Olym- pics for retarded children, collected gifts for G.I.'s overseas, and gathered clothing for needy Americans each year. Other projects included the provision of a Thanksgiving Dinner for a poor family in the Village and collecting money for charities such as the Cerebral Palsy Drive. JETS p. 70 PRESIDENTS: Carl Pechman and Mike Markoff ADVISOR: Mr. K. Calkins JETS is the Junior Engineering and Technol- ogical Society of South Side. It allows explora- tion into many areas of technology. JETS spon- sored speakers and films, hosted a banquet, and co-ordinated the annual Science Fair. One of this year's special activities was a trip to Brook- haven National Laboratory. JUNIOR CLASS: p. 125 PRESIDENT: Paul Gordon VICE-PRESIDENT: Pam Goldstein SECRETARY: Debbie Fried TREASURER: William Mandel ADVISOR: Mr. N. Janoff This year, more than ever, the Junior class kept active with fund-raising and fun-filled ac- tivities. Cookie and cake sales were held and a puppet show was given by Mrs. Mary Kelly. The annual carnival was a huge success as were the film festival and the candy sale. KEY CLUB p. 79 PRESIDENT: Peter Bralower VICE-PRESIDENT: Mark Jaskowiak SECRETARY: Stephen Morgan TREASURER: Michael Klein ADVISOR: Mr. Gerardi The Key Club continued to be one of South Side's most active organizations this year by maintaining its efforts to serve the community. The program by which members are sent week- ly to entertain and instruct the mentally retard- ed was conducted again. Fund-raising for the Economic Opportunity Council was begun with the sale of refreshments at Cyclone football games and resumed with an E.O.C. Benefit Film Festival in February. With some of the money raised, a trip to the Bronx Zoo was sponsored for children from the West End. The Christmas Kettle fund-raising campaign for the Salvation Army was again held, and a record amount was collected. Key Club members also collected for the Heart Fund. The club's newest project was the part-time manning of the recycling depot. Eventually, full control of the project is hoped for the club. In the spring, other environmental projects were planned, such as the cleaning of vacant lots. LEADERS CLUB p. 112 PRESIDENT: Mary Zarba ADVISOR: Mrs. D. Casey and Mrs. P. Piner Leaders Club was an active group this year, fulfilling duties such as aiding teachers in gym, setting up the new schedule and selling candy canes during the holiday season. In addition, the club sponsored a student-faculty volleyball game and ended the year with a weekend camp- ing trip for all its members. MATHLETES p. 70 CAPTAINS: Diane Berman and Louis Jurist SECRETARY: Shira Belfer TREASURER: Roy Luft COACHES: Mrs. L. Yelman and Mr. N. Janoff Mathletes is South Side's team of young mathematicians which meets weekly to work on difficult and puzzling problems. They compete interscholastically once a month in meets in which five squad members oppose teams from nearby schools. The teams are ranked on a county-wide basis after the completion of six meets. A mathematical magazine, the Limit, is also published in the spring by the Mathletes. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY p. 7 PRESIDENT: William Silberg VICE-PRESIDENT: Rise Greenberg and Rob- ert Meyerson SECRETARY: Jill Feinberg ADVISOR: Mr. K. Jenkins This year, South Side's chapter of the Na- tional Honor Society expanded its activities, becoming more of a service organization than ever before. Among the activities this year were three crafts night programs: arts and crafts programs for the elementary school students of Rockville Centre. Honor Society Members also served as tutors in the adult education's Eng- lish for Spanish speaking people program. In addition, discussions were held on changing the methods of selecting members. As in past years, two students were nominated for the National Honor Society National Scholarships: this years choices were William Silberg and Hillary Beyer. ORCHESTRA p. 54 ADVISOR: Mr. J. Greenwald The Orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Greenwald, performed in December at the Win- ter Festival. In addition to this, they played in the pit for Fiddler on the Roof and planned several trips to concerts in the city. PSYCHOLOGY CLUB p. 75 ADVISOR: Dr. Kemp Through its varied activities, the Psychology Club, attempted to develop interest in the field of psychology. The group had guest speakers, discussions and group projects. Individual work was encouraged and those interested in this field found an excellent way to gain more knowledge and experience. RIFLERY p, 95 CAPTAIN: Michael Collins COACH: Mr. J. Scuderi The team had a successful season behind such riflemen as Mike Collins and Frank Fer- rante. The team placed third in their division, a great improvement over last year's record. Fer- rante was the high scorer for the team setting a school record with a 186 out of 200 mark.
