FOREWORD Hands, man’s best and most faithful sen-ants, execute his will and obey his commands. Hands, the instruments of cre- ativity, symbolize the ability of the mind to transform knowledge into the molding of things of beauty. 960 'lAJinip 'ZOe t cvuf, Sc tcoC 'Ztteat cvuf, 'Tfecv tyonA 7udle ( entente ‘Dedicati .... 5 faculty X ScKUWC X OtcCenclucc4HCK. . . 44 s4ctiviticc 54 Sfrcntc 72 Oft- ' « - 96 UdCKCCC 20 an l udUcdccC ty tyc ScUtcnc To Our Seniors: As I closely observe you working and playing together in our beautifully appointed school, I am certain that your class adequately represents the basic qualities that must continue to be developed in American citizens. Our great country was founded, has grown, and has prospered on the individual efforts and accomplish- ments of its citizens.. , each to the best of his ability, doing the job according to the talents with which God has uniquely endowed him. Therefore, it is most neces- sary that each of us should enhance our God-given talents and abilities; a nation’s teal greatness must ever come from these signs’of individual strength. You have confirmed your belief in this basic tenet of our democratic faith, for each of you has contributed to the success of your class. We hope you will continue to uphold this faith for many years to come. Therefore, we, your proud faculty, as well as the many W.H.S. alumni who have preceeded you, wish you happiness and success in your future endeavors. Very sincerely, Cecil L. Rice £dacati i As students of Westbury High School, we are deeply indebted to the members of our Board of Education. The Board, consisting of respected members of our community, has again succeeded in fulfilling its obliga- tion of directing and organizing our facilities. As a re- sult of their efforts, Westbury High has continued to maintain high standing in the educational field, some- thing which is invaluable in these, the days of science and knowledge. DR.

SCtfci6ei‘6 U ch ; We, the staff of the 1960 WING AND SPUR, are honored to dedicate this annual to one of the most devoted and respected members of our faculty. For many years of her tenure here, her sincere efforts as advisor to Thespian Troupe 1297 and the Dramatic Club brought theatrics par excellence to Westbury High School. Her kind smile and words of assurance have become her endearing trademarks. ■ We arc most grateful for her guidance and dedicated instruction in the English classroom; for under such leadership our paths can only point toward success and accomplishment. jj. Although many of our high school memories might eventually fade from mind, we. your students, will always remember and remain ever indebted to you. Miss Elizabeth Griffin. 5 TUESDAY NOVEMBER m '■ Dear Seniors: Soon you will be leaving Westbury High School to take your place in other environ- ments. Regardless of what your future occu- pations may be, you will find, at first, that your new program is strange and perhaps difficult. However, these past four years have trained you to meet varied tasks and disci- plines. The integrity which you brought to high school and which was protected and en- n eaKcrcwWmaoVe you to fight a worldly greed. The freedom of thought and choice you knew here will always keep you as free men. The understanding of yourself as an American, which was cultivated and inter- preted here, will give you the strength to de- fend your ideals. Apply yourself to worlds yet to be con- quered with courage, honesty, diligence, and determination. You will, then, hold suc- cess within your grasp. Sincerely, John W. Kickham JOHN W. KICKHAM Principal RAY N. SOUTHARD Assistant Principal LEON A. PAYNE Director of Guidance For the smooth coordination of a school, a man like our Assistant Principal, Mr. Ray South- ard, is indispensible. His fine talent for efficiency results in making workable the schedule, attend- ance, school civil defense, and the point and honor roll systems. His fine service plus his bright personality have made him a most appreciated and important member of Westbury High School’s administrative staff. Students with hectic program changes, nervous seniors with college applications, and uncertain juniors and sophomores with ideas, but no plans, are daily seeking the guidance of Mr. Leon Payne, head of the Guidance Department. It is he who starts us on the post-high school road of our lives. It is he who helps us to find the road that best suits our capabilities and interests. We offer our many thanks to youfgMr. Payne; for we know that our future, started by your help- ful hands, will be fruitful. 8 L.

Sometimes, it comes as a shock to us when we discover how deep the influence of our teachers has been upon us. They are a devoted staff, always ready and willing to impart to us students the knowledge they have acquired. They watch us with silent pride or occasional misgivings as they see us struggle with problems of school, of life. They attempt to lead us away ifrbm the many pitfalls we may encounter. Our teachers have high hopes for the future suc- cess of all students who attend Westbury High. Their patience is grat- ifying to us students who reap the benefits of their j experience. RAYMOND H.

Sec'tete'Ue4. Ready smiles and friendly hellos are characteristic of Westbury High’s sec- retaries. They cheerfully and patiently answer all our questions. Their expert fingers have typed many of our school’s records and files: their services ren- dered as experienced office workers have proved invaluable. However busy they may be, these women always have a pleasant word and a helping hand for all. Fortunately for the students, Westbury High School is the proud possessor of an extremely capable cafeteria staff. From our modern kitchen come the appe- tizing and nutritious meals which are planned and cooked by our dietician, Mrs. Lillian Hein, and her capable assistants. We are very grateful to these women who work so diligently to satisfy the appetites of our many students. Lillian Bulloss, Roe McDonald, Mary Conway, Josephine Lagnese. Estelle Goftz, Bernice Simpson, and Viola Capers comprise our cafeteria staff. Our janitorial staff takes time out to pause for our camera.

(Zuttodccuui, Although their services may not be duly appreciated, our custodians per- form a most vital service to Westbury High. It is they who are first and last in school each day. They perform such varied tasks as opening “difficult” locks on lockers, driving students to educational conferences, helping at school affairs, and most important, keeping our school in top physical con- dition. Ultimately, their greatest feat is that of brightening up the school with their ever-smiling faces. 15 Seniors After three busy years as underclassmen, we fi- nally became Seniors. As freshmen we waited nerv- ously to be handed our first high school books and schedules. As seniors we wait, regretfully but anxiously, to receive our diplomas. Under the capable leadership of Mr. Roger Cox and Mr. Edward Krinsky, we began the year by sponsoring the Sadie Hawkins Dance. This suc- cess was followed by our winning first prize with our “School-Days” float in the Halloween parade. Selling class pins, Westbury book covers, and stationery were only a few of our senior activities. Who can ever forget our most enjoyable and successful senior play, “Meet Me At The Prom”? As the months moved on, we held the annual King and Queen Dance, a very enjoyable affair. Time sped by and soon we were making prepa- rations for our Senior Ball, an event which will be remembered always. Now, as the year draws to a close, we bid fare- well to Westbury High. We will always cherish fond memories of our high school days and of those two green and gold words imprinted in our memories — Westbury High. Senior Class Advisers, Edward Krinsky and Roger Cox, have helped make our four years both fruitful and eventful.

' .■ . mmsam Junior Class Officers and Advisers: Mr. Gerald Mallon, Adviser; M. Ulrich, Treasurer; C. Sussman, Vice Presi- dent: J. Cusick, Secretary; C. Harper, President; Mr. Clark Henry, Adviser; and school mascot. We, the class of 1961, can pride ourselves in our accomplishments during this, our Junior year. Aided by our advisers, Mr. Gerald Mallon and Mr. Clark Henry, we have successfully undertaken many class activities, and among these have introduced several which appear destined to become tradition. Our “Remember When Dance,” a new and unique ac- tivity, in that it was restricted to adults only, is sure to become one of these precedents. Our large number of undertakings have distin- guished our class in many ways. The limelight of our year’s social schedule, however, was the Junior Prom. It was truly worth the many hours we spent in preparation for this most memorable evening. Undoubtedly the greatest contribution we, as a class, could make to Westbury High School was the initiation of a school mascot. Under this mascot, the Dragon, our school witnessed a new upsurge of spirit. Through honest efforts and sincerity of purpose, our achievements have been ones of recognized worth and prosperity.

As sophomores, we reached another step in our climb toward a high school education. Led by our four officers and capable advisers, Miss Jeanne Sad- low and Mr. Robert Heist, we set out upon an event- ful year. In the Halloween Parade our original “beatnik” float placed second. At basketball games we helped increase school spirit by selling “rah-rahs.” During the holiday season, our class sponsored a program to insure an enjoyable Christmas. Before the year was ended we had proved ourselves definite assets to Westbury High School. And now, with new confi- dence acquired, we are willing and able to take our place as upperclassmen next year. BOTTOM ROW: P. Grant, C. Terranova, R. Resnic, J. Naylor, M. Collins, E. Zipser, J.

Under the able supervision of Advisors, Mr. Jo- seph Matthews and Mr. Anthony Moreno, and the dynamic lead- ership of President Steve Bayne, the G.O. initiated many “firsts” into Westbury High. Included among these were the five school Dance Band Festival and the Talent Show. With the initiation of these new programs, plus a continuation of established policies, our G.O. cards became more valuable than ever before. However, the success of this year’s G.O. cannot be attributed to one or two in- dividuals; for without the work of the members and the unprece- dented support of our student body, it could never have been so prosperous as it was.

'r otto Society Membership in the National Honor Society is the high- est honor that may be bestowed upon a high school stu- dent. The recipient of this distinction must, in the eyes of the faculty, possess the specified qualities of character, service, leadership, and scholarship. Under the astute direction of Miss Beatrice Keevil, the Honor Society was very active as a service organization. The members again conducted the Student Aid Bureau, whereby interested students could obtain tutoring in their studies. The Society also ushered at numerous school gath- erings. Setting a precedent this year, the Honor Society spon- sored two inductions. The early induction in December was solely for the Seniors; the later, for Juniors. Both were executed in a manner befitting the pomp and dignity of the occasion. “Thank you very much for your most inspirational address, Cadet Brindley,” says John Cirigliano at the Honor Society reception. Miss Keevil pauses for a moment at the Honor Society reception. New Senior Honor Society inductees arc G. Moscarello, F. Frew, E. Laka, C. Humphrey, J. Kupetz, II. Graf, M. Koteen, and A. Elias. Gary Moscarello Managing Editor Through the patient guidance of our dedi- cated advisers, Mrs. Jean Angstadt, Mr. Rob- ert Heist, and Mr. Joseph Raziano, the year- book staff, conscientiously striving for better- ment, realized its goals. The production staff, headed by the editors, groped forward meeting its deadlines. The business staff was, meanwhile, occupied soliciting advertisements and patrons, know- ing that without this help, we couldn’t afford to go to press. With a multifold combination of skill, co- operation, hard work, new equipment, and patience, we hope this 1960 edition of the WING AND SPUR will prove difficult to sur- pass. H.

A precedent in Westbury High has been estab- lished with an annual which was published in December and dedicated to Mr. Carl Monk, adviser of The Whisp. It is the intention of this year’s staff that The Whisp An- nual will be a yearly endeavor. Among standard columns featured in our four-page ed- itions were “Senior Somethings,” “Junior Jottings,” and “Soph Stuff,” supplemented by novelty articles such as “Barb’s Beacon,” which informed our students about var- ious aspects of curriculum and atmosphere in other high schools. Our paper has been a vital means of communication and enjoyment to the students in our school. Articles have been written with enthusiasm, clarity, simplicity, and ac- curacy. The Whisp has upheld those basic principles of good journalism and is a source of pleasure and satisfac- tion to all its readers. SITTING: K. Hazelhurst, E. Miao, L. Koteen. STAND- ING: E.

Led by its capable adviser, Miss Jean Bogdziewicz, the Club initiated a plan to hold a special activity or event every two weeks to which all interested students were in- vited. This plan proved to be a success. The Club and its guests studied French customs, learned French dances and songs, and were exposed to many other aspects of French life and culture. Recognized as one of the most beneficial and active groups in the school, the French Club is an organization of distinction. To acquaint interested students with the art language, and culture of Spanish speaking nations is the purpose of the Spanish Club. Through the efforts of their adviser, Miss Ruth Kelly, the enthusiastic members of the Club produced an outstanding organization. Highlighting the festive Christmas Season was the Fiesta de Navidad, which was culminated by breaking the pin- ata. Participation in the Annual Pan-American Festival was not only an educational experience but one extremely enjoyed by the members. The abilities and accomplishments of the Club were ex- hibited in the entertaining Language Assembly program in which many of its members took part. FIRST ROW: M. Vecchione, P. Franz, C. Suarez, F.

The Club, which is opened to any stu- dent interested in this field of science, gives the stu- dents a chance to work on their projects concerning any branch of biology. When problems arise, the ad- vice of Mr. Korber and Mrs. Powell, the Club’s ad- visers, is sought; through their capable help the stu- dents proceed into worthwhile accomplishments. This year marked the second successful season of the Electronics Club. Under the direction of Mr. Wesley A. Graves, the group has increased in scope as well as in size. The Club has three main objectives. These are to familiarize the members with basic electronic prin- ciples, to acquaint them with the technicalities and use of test equipment, and to encourage a future in electronics. An important part of the Club’s activities are invit- ing guest speakers and going on various excursions. Also, projects for various scientific exhibits were de- veloped. SITTING: C.

'putccie s tttertea (?lu Under the supervision of Miss Harriette Kuhlman, the members of the F.T.A. get an opportunity to learn and experience many things which will aid in their pre-professional training in teaching. This year’s organization offered many benefits to its members: movies, guest speakers, and discussions on the advantages and disadvantages of State Teach- ers’ Colleges versus Liberal Arts’ Institutions. One of the most valuable and eagerly anticipated activities was the two days of student teaching at various ele- mentary schools in which the club’s members partici- pated. The year was climaxed with an F.T.A. Tea where the outstanding members were awarded pins, and the new officers were installed. It is through the efforts of the members of the Li- brary Club and their advisers, Mrs. Mary Rothman and Mrs. Nancy Beaton, that our school library con- tinues its smooth working order. This is quite impor- tant in that the library is one of the most valuable tools available to the students of Westbury Fligh School. The club members can usually be found checking incoming and outgoing books, maintaining the shelves, collecting fines, and doing odd jobs around the library. Library Club members, while serving the school and their fellow students, are also acquiring valuable experience in office work and li- brary science. FIRST ROW: C. Walker, X. Robinson, G. Morris, S.

It was formed to en- courage those students with special aptitude in the field of chemistry to further their interest by perform- ing specific experiments by delving with greater de- tail into areas of particular interest to them. The club assists in keeping the lab in good working order. At the meetings, group experiments often whet the scientific appetites of promising young chemists who undertake special projects of their own. Guest speakers from various colleges and industrial plants have been invited to address the group, and such discussions have been open to other students who might benefit from the experience. Students in W.H.S. are very fortunate in having excellent shop facilities at their use. These facilities, combined with student interest, led to the formation of the Woodworking Club. Our future skilled craftsmen can be seen spend- ing their afternoons working with drills, lathes, and planes. Doing this the boys have a chance to develop dormant skills and prepare themselves for a career, while receiving a deep sense of satisfaction from a job well done. The members and their adviser, Mr. August Brezina, are very satisfied with the results of their club and hope for its continued success. Woodworkers pictured here are R. Stream, Mr. August Brezina, Adviser, T. Amato, D. Van Wickler, M. Connor, and D. Ordemann. Striking a familiar pose are J. Griffler, M. Acccttola, D. Boynton, N. Wolfe, S. Meyers, T. Beatty, E.

I ed Receiving good student support in its drives this year, the Junior Red Cross was able to-maintain; its commendable and worthwhile purpose. We are all familiar with the Junior Red Cross pins received for contributions to the annual drive, one of the activi- ties sponsored by the Junior Red Cross. The West- bury chapter, under the supervision of Miss Eva Bronner, also conducted the veterans’ stocking drive, baked cookies for underprivileged children, made scrapbooks for veterans, and carried on numerous other activities. Although it may not always receive its due recognition, the Junior Red Cross is an organ- ization of which Westbury High School can be proud. Under national auspice?, . the Thespian Society strives toward the advancement of dramatic arts within our high schools,; To, become a Thespian you must have earned; tej points by acting, stu- dent directing, or working back-stage. Once you are a Thespian, you receive a star for every addi- tional ten points you earn and have the possibility of becoming an Honor Thespian With the acquisi- tion of sixty credits. This year under the direction of Mr. Harvey Henderson, the Thespians sponsored a musical, Brigadoon. It is the first niusical ever presented in Westbury High School and there is evidence to indicate it will be the start of a Thespian tradition. Mr. Henderson directs the Thespians. SITTING: P.

Led by its officers, Edgar Adjahoe, president; Steve Rhine- smith, vice president; Janet Bishara, secretary; and Gary Moscarello, treasurer, the Band has developed into a well organized group of musicians and a true asset to Westbury High School. Along with the band, the Twirling Squad plays an important part in the musical program of the school.

Under the able coaching of Mr. John Hotchkiss, the boys compiled a record of 8 wins, 1 loss and 1 tie and romped to the North Shore Division II title. This earned them the right to compete in the sectional playoffs where they were nosed out by North Shore High 4—3 in the semi- finals. The starting eleven was composed mostly of vet- erans. They were led by All-Scholastic Chris Jorno, Jim Freda, and Mike Falanga and were ably sup- ported by John French, Rick Toccaceli, and Tony Gibson. The team’s success sparked a new interest in soccer at Westbury High, and the underclassmen will work hard to try and equal the 1959 record. fiowenfact 6cutci T eat cvief.

This year marked the incep- tion of a new activity at West- bury High. As a result of wide- spread interest and fine facili- ties a Gymnastics Club, under the direction of Mr. Bemie Dolat, was formed. The boys can be found building their bodies on the parallel bars, the trampoline, the horse, and many other pieces of appara- tus. A very successful assembly was presented through the ef- forts of this group. Much is ex- pected of this club in future years. 75 Westbury’s boys team up for a bone cracking tackle on a hapless Great Neck South halfback. 'poot dCC ta msi ctf ietic te z H4 The 1959 season was a long one for the Dragons, who spent eight Saturday afternoons futilely searching for a vic- tory. The team was plagued by bad luck from the outset of the season. After impressive scrimmage victories, the team was dealt a stunning blow when our star end, Glenn Con- nor, was forced to leave the team. Subsequent injuries to Jack Russo, John Cirigliano, and Harvey Turner made it necessary for Coach Ray Coleman to use many inexperi- enced underclassmen. However, the players this year did learn how to cope with adversity and come back fighting. There were a few spectacular moments: Mike Kost’s 50 yard touchdown run (after recovering a loose ball) against Great Neck South, the 7—0 first half setback of unde- feated Island Trees, and Don Kursch’s 75 yard run against Hicksville. It was a disappointing season for seniors to finish their careers, but the underclass members of the team will do their best to prevent a recurrence. Westbury’s starting eleven: linemen — R. Harrell, right end; M. Kieselstein, right tackle; J. Russo, right guard; J. Crum, center; D. Fischer, left guard; E. Adjahoe, left tackle; R. Macchio, left end; and backs — D. Kursch, right half; A.

Aside from the beautiful new mats which lessened the bumps and bruises to a great degree, our grapplers experienced their most satisfactory season in recent years. After five matches our team was tied for first place in the tough North Shore Division II League. However, lack of depth and experience severely hampered the team in their ultimate bid for league honors. Individual wres- tlers such as Don Kursch, Jim Freda, A1 Schore, George Katz, and Jerry Crum distinguished them- selves by compiling exceptionally fine records. Per- haps the most celebrated match was heavyweight Milt Connor s 9 second pin of his Hicksville oppo- nent.

This same team had. only a mediocre sea- son in 1959, but all the boys gained a year of valu- able experience which made them hard to beat. Mr. Thomas Fitzgerald, the team’s fine coach, had the pleasant experience of having three men, Lorie Moore, Joe Trinceri, and Mike Mallon shooting in the 70’s. Mr. Fitzgerald gives his golfers a few pointers: H. Barush, M. Mallon, M. Shickler, L. Moore, P. Posillico, and J.

Outstanding for the Dragons were Dick “Goat” Martillo, and all-scholastic outfielder, Eddie Munson; in both hitting and fielding they performed excellently. Other important cogs in the powerful ma- chine were hard-hitting Marshall Kieselstein and Mike Yarmuth; and slick infielders, Artie Trier, Frank Reider, and Artie Elias. A combination of an air-tight defense, hard- hitting, tireless determination and hustle won Going, going, GONE! for Westbury a successful season.

With the disorders that could arise during G.A.A. competitive sports, some element is needed as a controlling factor. This element is known as the G.A.A. Officials Club. These girls, under the guidance of Miss Elisa Proly, are trained to offi- ciate the various sports in which the girls partici- pate. This club, besides being a valuable aid to the G.A.A., benefits the members themselves by giving them a more complete knowledge of each sport. Our G.A.A. Executive Board may take great pride in having led their girls through an extremely successful year. Ably advised by the head of the Girls’ Physical Education Department, Miss Elisa Proly, the Board has successfully planned and su- pervised all business for the G.A.A. during the past year. Under the direction of the Board, the mem- bers of G.A.A. have excelled in all sports from field hockey to bowling. The G.A.A.’s financial growth may be attributed to the highly profitable daily candy sale directed by President Joan Cappel. KNEELING: R. Whittington, G. Morris, J. Yancey, S. Breseman P. Butler, S.

This year’s manager was Bobbie Blazer; her as- sistant was Carolyn Jaegers. For those who were fortunate enough to participate, play days were held at Roslyn, North Shore, West Hempstead, and with the Long Island Hockey Association. During the winter months on Monday after- noons, a group of senior girls invaded Market Lanes Bowling Alleys in Syosset. Miss Dot Dalton, the group’s adviser, gives the girls valuable hints on bowling techniques enabling them to raise their scores. This year two girls, Harriet Papain and Carol Spielman, excelled in that they have gained an average of over 120 for the season. The team, assisted by the managerial efforts of Mary Donna Lynch, has several bowlers who have surpassed the 150 mark, thereby being awarded trophies for their achievement. SITTING: D. Louzis, S.

The Swimming Club serves a dual purpose: affording the girls a rollicking good time and pro- viding healthful exercise. This year’s basketball team proved to be an overwhelming success. With hard work and plenty of fun the girls participated in regularly sched- uled intramural sessions. After per- fecting their skills during intramu- rals, a certain number of teams were chosen to play against other schools in playdays.

The Tennis Club, under the direc- tion of Miss Elisa Proly and Miss Dot Dalton, met every Wednesday and Friday throughout May and the beginning of June. The club was opened to all junior and senior girls who desired a chance to participate in organized tennis. Tennis playdays were held with neighboring schools, and the girls had much fun exer- cising their skills and developing new ones.

The girls most proficient in play- ing softball are chosen to be cap- tains of teams and to aid in teaching the beginners the various skills of softball. The fruit of their labors is reflected in playdays with other schools which yield favorable results. BOTTOM ROW: J. Cappel, B. Lancaster, N. Wolfe, C. Suarez. TOP ROW: H. Papain, T. Miano, C.

Steadily increasing, our student population has reached the 700 mark, and to accommo- date each with the best education possible, a series of additions and expansions have enriched our curricula. It is now divided into four major groups: college preparatory, industrial arts, home economics, and business; these afford the individual student a chance to pursue his or her main field of interest regardless of what it may be.

As all theatrical productions, it required patron- age to put the show on the road; the Senior Class was its sponsor. With a little plot twisting on the part of Westbury’s new dramatic coach, Mr. Harvey Henderson, the play was transformed into a teenage comedy depicting the life of the “Roaring Twenties.” The keynote was variety: slapstick by incorrigible mental delinquents led by Monk Stacy, straight acting by Lucy Trainor and Cal Henry, a couple of misfits finding comfort in their companionship; and even a lit- tle dancing by Elwood Simpson and Sheila Rollins, who cut a meaner rug than the “flappers” could ever dupli- cate. Extraordinary effort and singular acting by the cast, coupled with a splendid job of backing from the Class of 1960, gave those who attended Meet Me At The Prom a fond and lasting memory.

The iridescence of moonlight on a frosty evening created a scene of glistening splendor. Following a savory four-course turkey dinner, came the highlight of the evening, the crowning of the Queen of the Prom, Miss Terry Kohleriter. All too quickly the evening ended, but the memory of glistening snow, sparkling icicles, and a wonderful prom will linger on. The proud Junior Class officers, Mary Lou Ulrich, Charlie Harper, Carol Sussman, and Judy Cusick, cut the traditional cake. fruMtecC (4UMM ea H4, receive their gifts of appreciation from the Junior Class.

In the midst of holiday festivities, the annual King and Queen Dance was presented under the auspices of the Senior Class. Eleven o’clock marked the long awaited hour when Dr. Cecil L. Rice, superintendent of schools, crowned Betty Wilhelms and Jack Russo, Queen and King of Westbury High. Along with their well-chosen court, the royal couple highlighted the evening’s fun. The warm, friendly atmosphere and glittering decorations, as well as the music of the J.B. Sextet, increased the enjoyment of the dance which af- forded everyone a fine time. THE COURT Naomi Wolfe Most Likely to Succeed Marshall Kieselstein Dave Rosenberg listens attentively to some guests at the “Remember When” Dance. 0 tutce On October 17, 1959, the Senior Class presented the annual Sadie Hawkins Dance. This afTair has become a tradition in Westbury High as the first social afTair of the school season. The music pro- vided by Peachy Bracco and his Orchestra en- chanted all. Why are adults coming back to school? To at- tend the “Remember When” Dance, of course. This affair was organized by the Junior Class and was presented on Dec. 5, 1959. It differed from all other social events at Westbury High in that only adults were invited. Both the decorating and the music, provided by Joe Diamond’s Band, set the scene and created an atmosphere of “not so long ago.” tde yea'i't u%ccal calenda .

One of the most important additions Westbury High received this year was the new mascot. Our monstrous ser- pent has awakened the school’s spirit. After many weeks of hard work, the Junior Class presented the Dragon to the school in a most exciting assembly. Our new mascot has given Westbury High School that “ole school spirit.” fJu4tavi ftsie ent t£e Now, how are we going to get him out of the basement? The building of the school’s “terror” was undertaken by the Junior class. Westbury’s dragon takes its place in the Halloween parade. The happy couple, Bonnie Jean and Charlie, take their vows from Father McClaren. On the evening of April 9th, the Westbury High auditorium was transformed into a mystical Scottish village called Brigadoon. The strange and beautiful tale of Brigadoon, a Lerner and Lowe Production, was presented by the National Thespian Society. The show was directed by Mr. Harvey Henderson, Mr. Paul Margolf, Mr. William Kupferberg, Miss Eva Bronner, and Miss Jeanne Sadlow. The student supervisors were Paula Sugerman, Sue Meyers, and Marion Zengage. The magnificent performances of the en- tire cast and the skillful job of staging will never be forgotten. From the minute Brigadoon awoke from its misty hundred-years sleep, until it once again became clouded in slumber, the audience re- mained entranced in this wonderful musical. “It’s Almost Like Being in Love” sing Tommy and Fiona. Brigadoon townsfolk rehearse. 113 o«t a tefficcaC day . . , There is really no such thing as a typical day that suits the specifications of all of us. Therefore it was necessary to portray some aspects in the average day of two students representative of Westbury High School. We asked Anita Buckholtz and Mike Falanga to per- sonify the very differentiated but very busy life of a Mr. and Miss Normal Westbury High. The same holds true for the members of the faculty. Many of their days are just as varied as ours and cer- tainly just as busy. As with the students, two teachers were chosen to represent the faculty; Mr. John Hotch- kiss and Miss Adrienne Powell are shown here. Gathering the mail before classes . . .
