Vol. XXVI—No. 27 Port Washington Senior High. Friday, Jxme 13. 1952 PRICE TEN CENTS 169 To Graduate This year's graduating class will present an interesting program for the commencement. It will start off with the usual proces- sional to the tune of Pomp and Circumstance. Mr. Merrill will present the class to the president of the Board of Education, Mr Fredrick Reid who will award the scholarships. The rest of the en- tertainment will consist of the salutatorian address by Sandra Madeheim and the valedictorian address by Brenda Lu Forman. Sally Enscoe will give a vocal solo with Bob Hunter as the ac- companist. A brass ensemble will also play. This will consist of Bar- bara Wheeler, Danny Smith, Fred Lewis, Teddy Kuczinski, Frank Harding, John Nolan and Peiter Paulding. The end of the com- mencement exercises will be marked by the recessional of the class. Seniors Feted At 'Rainbow Room' The title of the 1952 graduation dance is "The Graduation Gam- bol," whose theme will be an exact replica of the "Rainbow Room" in New York. It will be held in the school gym. "Doc" Aresta's Band will play and Doc will emcee, assisted by Bert Wood. The entertainment will be handled by Mr. and Mrs. John Powers who run the Powers' Dancing School. Seniors have received their dance cards and will not be able to get in without one. Anyone else who plans to attend the dance must have one of these cards. The Senior's parents have been working very hard on the several committees. Mrs. Lipsett and Mr. William Cunningham are the co- chairmen. Among other commit- tees are Food, Decorations, Clean- up. As many seniors as possible are asked to attend. The date is June 23, the time is expected to be from 10:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. The affair will be one the graduates will long remember.

From her task of keeping up this high average, which is unbelievable when you consider that she is studying Sylvia Troiano Biology, Spanish III and Art III in addition to English and His- tory, Sylvia finds time to pursue her many hobbies. She is espe- cially interested in classical music, all forms of art work, sew- ing, and taking long walks with her collie. Sylvia is interested in stagecraft and dramatic produc- tion, too. (Continued on Page 3) Fluid To Honor Late Mrs. Piazza students of Port Washington Senior High have established a memorial fund for Mrs. Mildred H. Piazza, the late biology teach- er. The fund is to be presented to either the American Cancer So- ciety, the Damon Runyon Society or the Sloane-Kettering Institute. The goal of this drive is $400. It was collected in the homerooms and during the lunch shifts. Olga Osterholm, Janet Com- pere, Kay Bradley, Jim Ballard, Barbara Lynch, Brenda Lu For- man, Myrna Horowitz, Jay Greene, Jim Roberts and Miss Campbell, the faculty advisor were the collectors. At this writ- ing $689.44 had been coUected. The drive continued through Wednesday, June 11. All the names of the contributors were to be put on a scroll and presented with the money.

Mr. Robert H. Farson

The Port Weeklv -'52-'53 Since this is our first issue of The Port Weekly we, your editors,

feel that a statement of our intended policy is i n order. We wanf you to know what to expect of your paper next year, and we want your comments and suggestions on possible improvements.

The Port Weekly as a publication by and for the students of Port H i g h , has three aims. Its biggest job is to present students and teachers of the school w i t h clear and accurate accounts of happen-ings i n and around the school. B y doing this, The Part Weekly i n -creases school spir i t and improves faculty-student relations. I t also brings the "school f a m i l y " closer together and helps the people concerned to understand school affairs.

Practical t ra in ing in journal ism is given to the staff of The Port Weekly, and this second aim of the paper encourages people to p re -pare for a career i n newspaper work . Port Weekly experience is good i n itself, for the business staff learns the basic principles of advertising, selling, and finance, whi le the news and feature staff gives its members practice i n w r i t i n g accurately, clearly, and con-cisely. The editor ial positions b r ing out leadership and adminis -trat ive ab i l i ty , and give good experience in dealing w i t h people. To in f o rm the out-of-school public of school act iv i ty is the t h i r d a im of your school newspaper. By reading The Port Weekly, an out -sider can learn about the school, and a wel l -prepared paper can do a great deal i n helping the school to "put its best foot f o rward . "

These, then, are the aims of Your Port Weekly. We w i l l a l -ways strive to give an out-of-school reader a good idea of what Port High is l ike . We w i l l always t r y to give our staff the best journal ist ic experience possible. Above a l l , however, is our aim to give you, the students and teachers of the school, the k i n d of ac-curate, interesting, honest paper that Y O U want.

Three Teachers Leave Port High

Three of Port High's favorite teachers are leaving the school at the end of this year. M r . Robert Faison, English instructor and faculty advisor of The Port Week-ly w i l l be replaced by Mrs. Cor-son, whose job he had taken over whi l e she was on a leave of ab-sence. Mrs. E. F. Webster, gir ls ' guidance counselor and l ong -t ime member of the faculty of Port Washington's public schools, is r e t i r i n g after many years of service. Miss Barbara Thompson w i l l take over the position Mrs. Webster is leaving vacant. Miss Freda Haworth , 105,s B r i t i s h ex-change teacher, w i l l r e t u r n home after her year of teaching here, and beloved M r . Mcintosh, who has been teaching in Miss H a -worth's place at Lancastershire, England, w i l l resume his ac-

t ivit ies as English teacher. M r . Farson is a graduate of Co l -

gate University , as the bookends on his desk have testified a l l year. He has taught at Port High for two year, dur ing Mrs. Cor-son's absence.

Mrs. Esther Farl inger Webster former ly taught chemistry and mathematics i n Port High and has been i n her post as guidance counselor for several years. She intends to t rave l w i t h her hus-band next year, and possibly r e -sume guidance w o r k on the co l -lege level after that.

Mr . Mcintosh has been teaching at Blackburn Technical H i g h School in England whi l e Miss Haworth has been w i t h us. This exchange teacher project is con-ducted under the auspices of the department of state, and i t is a great honor for a teacher to be chosen to represent his or her country i n the schools of an -other.

Class Of '52 To Graduate June 23

June l l ' s Senior Banquet got off to a f ine start w i t h a speech by Paul D. Schreiber, superin-tendent of Port Washington's public schools. Just when Mr. Schreiber had finished saying, " I suppose you are a l l prepared for regents," the guests were startled by a loud crash. On fur-ther investigation i t was found that one of the j u n i o r girls serv-ing at the affair had ropped a tray of dishes, just at the r i g h t mo-ment.

Here are a few of the choice t idbits found in the class proph-ecy, and clas w i l l of 1952:

Colleen Gibson leaves her wrest l ing ab i l i ty to Anne Tuck.

Phyl l i s M i l l e r leaves her wi t ty remarks to Judy Haase.

Fel ix Ol iva leaves his place or the track team to anyone who can f i l l i t .

Nina Stephenson leaves her tennis racket to Annabelle Sloane.

George Sadlo leaves the rem-edial reading to Jean Gancher.

Pieter and Jean leave — to-gether!

Elaine Neilsen w i l l be the head of a re form school.

Lee A n n McGrath w i l l end up raising l i t t l e Savidges.

Branda L u Forman w i l l be a famous pianist and give many concerts throughout Europe.

Commencement: The Beginning &

The End One often wonders w h y the

graduation exercises f r o m high school are often called commence-ment. To many they m a r k the end; the end of a way of l i f e that they had k n o w n and been a part of since kindergarten days. I n this way of l i f e they l i v e d at home for the most part and went to school six hours out of the day. The rest of the t ime was pretty w i l l d iv ided up for them; so much for home w o r k , so much for sports and hobbies, so much for an after-school job or w o r k around the home. W i t h graduation this rather set schedule relaxes. Par-ents who didn ' t realize i t before suddenly discover that the ir c h i l -dren are o ld enough to care for themselves.

This re lax ing of the schedule marks the commencement of a new way of l i fe . Those of you who go away to school w i l l no doubt be more on your own than you ever have been before. True, you w i l l s t i l l be going to school, you w i l l s t i l l be learning, but you w i l l no longer have the close supervision of your t ime that you knew at home. You w i l l be l e a r n -ing, along w i t h your studies, how to budget t ime and how to r u n yourself.

Those of you entering the bus i -ness w o r l d w i l l be learning, too, how to budget t ime and money. Some of you w i l l no doubt be w o r k i n g away f r o m home and w i l l have the added chore of de-c iding what is r i ght and what is wrong, w i thou t t u r n i n g to your parents or teachers for help.

W i t h your entrance into this new way of l i f e , many of you, i n fact a l l of you w i l l meet problems that you never have before. I f you are earning your own money, you w i l l meet Income Tax forms. Social Security, Insurance, and many others perhaps for the f i rst t ime. I n a few years you w i l l be of vot ing age. This is a problem that must not be taken l i g h t l y . As soon as you can vote, you have a hand i n r u n n i n g the government. You must learn to judge for yourself the issues at hand. You

The Great Day

JUNE 23, 19 w i l l have to keep up w i t h the times so you can vote wisely.

W i t h the w o r l d situation what i t is, some of you w i l l probably be i n the A r m e d Forces before the year is out. You w i l l have problems to meet here too, but the greatest problem w i l l be de-ciding what exactly you are f i ght ing for. When you have de-cided, the rest w i l l be easy. You w i l l not real ly be afraid to f ight i f you t r u l y believe i n what you are f ight ing for.

Graduation is commencement, the commencement of a new way of l i fe , a new way of doing things. I t real ly is the alpha and the omega, the Beginning and the End. Commencement marks the end of childhood and the begin-ning of adulthood, the beginning of being on your own.

1952's top ten graduates are outstanding i n many respects be-sides their scholastic records.

They are: Brenda L u Forman, Sandra Madehiem, Frank Harding, Sylvia Triano, Margy Hazard, Barbara M i l l m a n , Deane Land, Janet K u h l , Preston Pumphrey, and Patric ia McCor-mick .

Retraction

I n last week's issue of "The Port Weekly" it was stated that Barbara Wheeler had re-ceived a scholarship to the Eastman School of Music. This statement is false as Barbara didn't even apply for admit-tance to the Eastman School of Music.

Wiggam Speaks To Graduates

I n one of the o ld issues of the PORT W E E K L Y , dated June 9, 1926, the H i g h School Commence-ment exercises are mentioned. The graduating class inv i ted Dr . A l b e r t E. Wiggam to speak that evening. Dr . Wiggam was a cele-brated lecturer and author. His subject was "The Knock of Op-p o r t u n i t y . "

That year's Senior Class was exceptional i n that "the graduat-ing class of approximately s ixty people is the largest i n the history of the school." Compared w i t h this year's 160 seniors, the class of '26 seems very small . The next two years the banquet was held at the Knickerbocker Yacht Club, but whether this class had a ban-quet, and where i t was held, was not mentioned.

Friendship The w o r l d a l l ' round about us, Seems dark and gray and dead When friendship is forgotten, A n d hatred reigns instead. Our thoughts are a l l so gloomy, True happiness is gone, When friendship is forgotten, A n d we are le f t alone. We long to be remembered, But wishing is i n va in , When friendship is forgotten, A n d there instead is pain. To have a f r i end to ta lk to, A f r iend who intercedes. When foe is out to h a r m you. That's what this cold w o r l d

needs.

T O T H E S E N I O R S

Oh seniors, we love you, we t h i n k

you're a l l swell , B u t the t ime has come when we

M U S T say farewel l . Yes, we finally have have to say

goodbye, For you're graduating f rom old

Port High .

Remember your very first day at this school You felt l i t t l e and lonely and just l i k e a fool So b ig and so empty was the ha l l You didn ' t l ike i t at a l l .

But you soon were a j u n i o r w i t h nonchalant air A grown-up sophiscate, quite de-bonair, The plays and the parties, the laughter and tears. Made this the busiest of your h igh school yeras.

As a senior you sat on the top of the heap. A n d talked about College Boards i n your sleep. You filled your head w i t h "use-less knowledge" A n d thought and thought and thought about college.

A n d now that you're going to leave Port behind you We hope that your memories w i l l often remind you Of the teachers and students of dear old Port H i g h Oh never forget us! 1 w o n -der Why.

W i t h this somewhat dubious w o r k of l i t e rary art , I say good-bye to a l l m y f a i t h f u l readers (there must be SOME!) and express my hope that every-one w i l l have a very pleasant summer. To you juniors and sophs who w i l l be back at school on Sep-tember 3, I say, "Remember our motto ! " No incoming soph must get away alive! The vats of bub -bl ing acid w i l l be ready i n the chem lab, and there w i l l be se-veral yards of red tape in the off-ice w i t h which to strangle the hapless sophs. Remember, you were a soph once yourself!

I wish I wuz a 'skeeter W i t h a stinger long an' t h i n

Whenever I saw a teacher I 'd stick my nose r ight i n .

I wish I wuz a yearbook Then I would earn m y fame

Then maybe somehow I could learn

Every senior's name.
