A 0 1 We 'Happiness is not steadfast but transient' Euripides Our school days have heen very happy We should be very grateful for not every one can say that For this happiness we largely have to thank Dr Thompson and the Board of Education Dr Thompson, to most of us is someone whom we have known and loved for thirteen vears Feeling uncertain as we do about our approaching steps out into the world, it is very comforting to know that we can still relv upon him for his sound advice One of the things we have N learned in school is to keep our old friends but to make new ones ' Our new Board of education has this year proven themselves fine friends sincerely wish to thank Nr rltzGerald, Nr Cureau, Mr Deverill, Dr Mrs Macomber work they did We do realize ciate all the D'Esopo and for all the in our behalf and do appre improvements which we see in our school. ! 4- ' K ' x' 3 A l eff, t p Q l , fqlz' A 1 3 at .

GRAY Although the dictionary defines a teacher as one who instructs, at Wash- ington Irving we look upon our teachers not only as instructors, hut as friends and advisers. When we think of Mr. Donnellon, we immediately think of his pep meeting jokes. Speaking of pep meetings brings to mind nPopn Stearns' wonderful Junior Varsity teams. The boys will never forget Mrs. Sureau. Why? Don't ask such silly questions. On the other hand, the girls will never forget C1iff . Why? Hubba, hubbal While on the subject of movie stars, we needn't go to Hollywood to see Jimmy Stewartg we just have to go down to the shop and take a look at Mr. O'Toole. When the word patience is mentioned, we think of Miss BeIk's patience while the after school antics are in progress, and Miss Gates' patience with theA1hambra staff. Let's not forget Miss Hahn's wonderful class projects, nor Miss Morr1son's and Mr. Collins' assistance at all our athletic events. During the years to come when we hear the familiar old songs, I'm sure the seniors all will think of Mr. Dinsmore and Mr. Hackett who plan our sing- ing assemblies. Mr. Flickingar will always be remembered for his willingness to take pic- tures for the Alhambra and Mr. Gray for those chemistry odors. Yes, remembering the good times and fun we've had with our teachers leaves only one thing to say and that is, nOur teachers are tops both as in- N ta! structors and as our friends. V MR.

Our first project was a candy sale at the Pleasantville football game which was a huge success despite or maybe because of a cold snap. Crowds waited for hot dogs and coffee while the profits mounted. Next came our Snowball, a Christmas dance, held during the holidays. Christmas trees, decorated with cotton and tinsel, lined the walls and in the center of the gym under a huge snowball suspended from the ceiling a bril- liantly lighted Christmas tree was placed. Every- one who went couldn't keep from enjoying themselves We were all thrilled at our class rings which fin- ally arrived in March just as we'd given up hope. Later on, in the springtime, we gave the customary Junior play which the actors enjoyed almost as much as the audience. The play, a comedy, was received enthusiastically and proved to us that our hard work had not been in vain. We wound up the season with the biggest social event of the year, the Junior Prom. It was attended very well and we all thought the music and decorations were perfect. Next year we are looking forward to even more fun if that's possible.

Two years gone and two more to go As the class of '48, we are now able to look back with fond remembrance upon our first two years and we look forward to two more prosperous ones As Sophomores our school year started off with a great loud bang! We gave the Fresh en a good go ing over at their initiation After this fling, we settled down to the serl ous task of electing class officers They were Arthur See for president, Carole Losee for vice president, Barbara Braun for secretary, Rosemary Barron for treasurer, and Cblores Cregan for his torian. Under the able direction of Mr. Fiickinger our adviser, we started to plan our annual project. On March 15, supposedly the unluckiest day in the year, we presented the very successful nPLnk Fedoran fashioned after the famous Brown Derby Restaurant. This program was in typical night club style. Tables were placed around the stageshow. It was really too bad that you couldn't get here, Janie, as you cer- tainly would have enjoyed lt. We had more of a crowd than usual since those attending the Arthur Murray Dancing Class came to show off their new dance steps. After having completed a most enjoyable year, we now look forward to a nnuch-neededn vacation to prepare for an equally successful Junior year. I hope you will write soon, Janie, as I would like to hear from you.

CHORUS Thru the twenty years that W I has been in existence, music has been one of its out standing features The Credit for the prominence must go to the two very fine instructors who lead the activities of the music department, namely, Mr Clifford Dinemore and Mr Carlton Hackett In 1042 when we entered this school, the first thing we had was an assembly V Hackett, leader of our band was the conductor for the Star Spangled Banner and America Throughout the four years we found that he was a verv prominent figure Tarrytown needs no introduction to Ir Hackett We all know that whenever there is a Hackett Mr Dinsmore has also played a leading part in the life of the school He is director of the school chorus, which consists of boys and girls who feel that they would like to sing The Hudsonnaires, a group of eight selected singers, owe their existence entirely to Mr. D1nsmore's patience and ability Each year he chooses eight students to sing in this group These people, during our four years of school, have done some outstanding work and are known all over the county We all remember last year when they were asked to sing at the Westchester Teachers' Convention at Mecca Temple in New York City Each school in West- chester County contributed four to eight singers to this group The orchestra, which entertains us at every play and at many of the other extra cur ricular activities, is also the product of his untiring efforts Two splendid concerts Ca band concert by Mr Hackett, and a chorus and orchestra con cert by Mr Dinsmorel concluded the work of the music department in the spring -. q LI W.

This year your G. O. realized the importance of having cheering support of the student body for the teams when we played our-of-town, so it furnished buses to several of the basketball and football games. At noon, during the winter months, we acquired a study hall room in Room 9 for those pupils who eat lunch in school. The students were put on their honor and they obeyed the laws President Clements drew up. The most important project your General Organization has undertaken this year is the Student Court. In previous years such a court has proven un- successful, but this year's administration believes that it failed because of the lack of important infonmation. President Clements has made great efforts to see that representatives from every grade obtained knowledge con- cerning the procedures of a court. Groups have witnessed actual court scenes Rules and regulations that need careful thinking have been drawn up. The Student Court now has a firm foundation. So even though you haven't heard too much about your court, have no doubt in your mind that it has been work- ed upon constantly with tactfullness and tolerance. The officers and Mr. Koch have used their power in such a way as to bene- fit our school's high standards. Your co-operation and aid has been deeply appreciated. wt? -QV 5 -c!': 34 ,yy Q75 and ffmataf N Qui in SLO FY JW S R W Q53-igmwf 45? 994 sg, L -N v L, 0 4 'vi HCDNGR SOCIETY Perhaps you have seen students walking around the halls wearing little gold pins with torches on them This is the emblem of the Honor Society The torch symbolizes the light of knowledge and education The letters S L C S stand for Scholar eh1p,Cmaintaln1ng an average of 901 or betterl Leadership, Char acter, and Service These are all considered when you become a mem ber of our club Ten per cent of the school's en rollment belong to the club and we are also part of the National Honor Society Mrs Sureau, our adviser, has endeavored to make the organization more widely known about the school Pamphlets were made which con tained the history of W I , school rules and regulations, news con cerning clubs, and general informs tion that a newcomer to our school would be glad to have Under the leadership of our adviser and club officers who were Pres Valerie Field, V Pres.

We have enjoyed very much preparing it and we hope that you will like it There are no words that can truly express the sincere gratitude which we feel towards Miss Gates, our adviser Not even the smallest picture in our book could have been possible without her help She has always been here when we've needed her, with an idea, advice or encouragement We feel very honored to have been able to work with so fine a person, excellent adviser, a faithful friend whom we all love We would at this time like to thank every one in Washing ton Irving for his cooperation We realize that it was often inconvenient to have that picture taken, or to give time for announcements, or to write up an article on some club of which you were a member. We feel that we have always had your support and we appreciate it. Finally, we would like to give a word of well deserved praise, to our Photographers, Scott Studio, lamaroneck Avenue, White Plains, New York. Their pictures speak for themselves. They are excellent. Turn back and take another look and see if we're not right. The General Offset Company has also helped us considerably and we wish to thank especially Mr. Ullman for his interest. To the class of 1947 may we extend our sincere best wishes for e prosperous senior year and a fine Alhambra. ,I .V-zzz-ez-aids.-J.- la. , Y' 'I V PM A ,WWW 7 Q' l Q 'vii a . J 9 -s 1 4 5?
