High School Highlights PATCHOGUE SENIOR HIGH Every Saturday morning* the voice of Patchogue Hi gh School is heard over radio station WALK. In their pre-recorded 10 to 15 minute programs , the Radio An- nouncers Club is the voice of the school. Under the sponsorship of Russell Wygand, programs are us- ually taped Friday X period for their i>:30 to 'J : -15 program the next morning. Each member of the club has an assignme nt: Wayne Wicks cov- ers the news of the other local schools; Harold Hastings reports from the Math Department; Bill Harris covers the sports events; Tom Bryson sees to the science angle; Bob VanCott brings news from the Radio Club and Pete Silhan covers the other fields. A new program is prepared ev- ery week , telling of school functions , activities and happen- ings. It is planned that the dance band may make a recording for the program. The class of '62 has started to make up the yearbook. Individual pictures of the senior class have been taken and their proofs have been sent out. Homeroom pictures of both the junior and sophomore classes were also taken. The editor of the yearbook is Rita Crocitta and the co-editor is Terry Burke. They claim that this book will be the best ever. Some departments are the art de- partment headed by Karen Storjo- hann and the activity department headed bv Pat Still. \Wake up and read , \ is the theme for National Book Week , which was celebrated in the school November 12 to November 18 , spon- sored by the National Book Com- mittee , Inc.. along with the Ame- rican Library Association. A week is put aside every year to be de- voted to the importance of i*ead- ing in the American life. The week is to stress the importance of all kinds of libraries; public , school , universities and private home li- braries. Most of the support comes from individual citizens who real- ize the importance of cultural and intellectual education. \Hooray for Books was the theme for National Book Week in Patchogue High School. There were many fine disp lays , which exhibit- ed books , and arouse interest. Two of these displays were in the school library and room. 222. The library also had special book markers, which announced Nation- al Book Week. * * • * • Now is the time for students looking for part-time jobs. Christ- mas is just around the corner and stores will be hiring many stu- dents for the rush. These jobs will be found in many of the depart- ment and chain stores in and around Patchogue. Edward Axt , attendance super- visor, and in charge of working papers , will help any student who visits his off ice. He is in constant contact with the stores in Patch- ogue. * * * A teenage panel discussion was the main activity for the Parent Teacher Association meeting of November 8. Under the direction of Mrs. Charlotte Record , students participating were James How- ards , Karen Storjohn , John Kin- yle, Jr. Michelle Farrell Jeff kreisberg and Nancy Matsonay. The discussion was based on \What teenagers have on their minds today. \ The two seniors Jim and Karen spoke on \Careers \ and \Spare Time \ respectively. John spoke on \What Does Or Could The Com- munity Contribute To The Stu- dent?\ Michelle also a junior took \ Wthat Does Or Could The School Contribute To The Com- munity?\ The sop homores Jeff and Nancy, both spoke about \The Relationship Between Teen- age Child And Parents. \ The speakers took their ideas from suggestions made by stu- dents in Mrs. Beverly Priest' s English classes. College , Patch- ogue recreation facilities , school curriculum , homework , school spi- rit , and movies were discussed. After the students spoke , the parents asked questions about Four Sisters Community Center , the language progra m here at P HS and pros and cons on restrict- ing teenagers from certain movies and books. Some parents remarked after- wards that they would enjoy more of these panel discussions because they were helpfu l and understand- ing * problems from the student' s point of view. * * : i' Violet Eichholz was the win- ner of the Gregg shorthand spel- ling bee in Mrs. Louise Muller ' s shorthand 2 class. Doris Skippon and Margaret McCormack receiv- ed honorable mention. Prizes were given to all three girls. Rickey Hawkins prepared the rockets , that will take the short- hand students to the moon, on the bulletin board in Room 101. To get on a rocket students must reach speeds of 60 to 120 word s a minute. * * < * * Marjorie Elbert , Ruth Cohen , John McCafferty , Wayne Wicks , and Joseph Valentine are all work- ing on a special biology project with Robert Liebermann. The pro- ject is concerned with growing various living cells in a test tube and subjecting them to virus. Sponsoring the project and provid- ing much of the necessary equip- ment is the W' aldemar Medical Re- search Foundation of Port Wash- ington. To give the students some back- ground in their project , they have attended two lectures at the Great Neck High School. Stanley Wein- berg, a research* worker in the Sloan Kettering Institute , is their lecturer. He has lectured on the uses of tissue culture , the proce- dures in growing a culture , and some of the various projects which can be performed after the cells are growing. To grow cells in a test tube is in itself an accomplishment. First , you must decide what type of cells you want to grow. Then , take these cells when they are still living, separate out a few of them and put them in a test tube which contains a media which will maintain them. The hardest part of all this is to keep your culture free from germs while you are preparing them. The growing of cells is interesting but it is very difficult to get the cells started. * * * Harold Hastings and Leslie Bow- den put on a math exhibit in the display case with the help of the math department. It had been en- tered by them in the first Long Island Math Fair last year and won first prize. The display was based on the \ missing entity. \ This is a term used to define a missing separate being or some- thing not having any reality in fact., There were other interesting ar- ticles dealing with math on exhi- bit also , as the history of math , the different types , such as ge- ometry, and different people known in the field of math. Recentl y, Leslie Bowden , Harold Hastings , Bill Harris , Joseph Ma- son , Richard Tillenger and Ruth Cohen entered a math contest at The LaSalle Military Academy. The results of this meet were very rewarding as Patchogue High won. Shortly after Christmas , the Patchogue High School dance band is planning to hold a dance for the benefit of the student body. This will be the first ap- pearance for the organization , con- ducted by Joel Sands , also direc- tor of student band activities. At present the membership is 14 members. The sections consist of three trombones , Gabriel DiTo- sti , Roger Pace and Richard Rein; three trumpets , William Knight , Frank Kentoffio , and William Toth; five saxop hones , Doris Doer- ing, Steven Bates , Nelson Cristle-r , Eddie Wintraecken and William Czepak ; two drums, William Brown and Pete Silban one bass played by Melony Schroeder and Ann Marie Johnson , piano. Susan Savage and Carol Eyer- man were co-chairmen of the com- mittee to decorate the library for Christmas. When school was dis- missed Wednesday for Thanksgiv- ing vacation the committee had a coke-and-sandwich party lunch and took down the Thanksgiving de- corations and put up holly and other Christmas decorations with a display of books about Christ- mas.

Bayles Min- use stated this week. As noted in the report , the auth- ority started active operations in 1951 by acquiring the water pro- perties of the South Bay Consoli- dated Water Company, Inc. The company was under reorganiza- tion by a court appointed trus- tee , and was providing water to 21 , 159 customers. It had 3 , 199 fire hydi'ants in service. In the 10- year period which followed , Mr. Minuse stated , the authority has expanded to provide water directl y to 83 , 313 water customers and to an additional 3 , 236 customers throug h sales to water districts , or a total of 86 , 704. It now has 8 ,397 fire hydrants in service. Its initial 410 miles of mains have been increased to a total of 1 , 306 miles. Mr. Minuse pointed out the increasing equity the residents of Suffolk County have in their wa- ter system. At the time of ac- quisition , the authority commenc- ed operations with a bonded debt of 103 per cent of its plant value of $7 , 750 , 000. Its water plant stands on auth- ority books today at $-10 , 570 , 000 while its bonded debt is only 66 per cent of plant value. The authorit y, with its organi- zation of more than 250 emp loyes , is continuing its comprehensive p lan for develop ing and conserving the county ' s water resources. The annual report states that the construction budget of the au- thority for the current, fiscal year is the largest in its history, name- ly $6 , 100 , 000 . and its plans con- template the addition of 7 , 500 new customers in the current 12-month period. The authority ' s report is being distributed to a v. *ide list of county and town officials , to banks , insurance companies , in- vestment houses and other organi- zations. Copies may be obtained by telep hone request or by writing to the authority ' s headquarters at Oakdale , or any of its nine dis- trict offices. FABULOUS NOON TO CLOSING FULL COURSE DINNER #!fe^5E!

Stonesifer Franklin and Marshall College A famous Yale professor of English was once asked which would thrill him moi'e — to see a Yale halfback run 90 yards through the Harvard team for a touchdown , or to discover a pre- viously unpublished poem by Rob- ert Browning ? Both , rep lied the professor , would thirll him equal- ly, but \ while watching a half- back I would probably tear up my hat!\ This summarizes the attitude to- ward football taken by many pro- fessors. Far from being anti-ath- letic , the academician is likel y to thrill , as do most men , to the de- ligh t of a beautifully executed for- ward pass , to an exhibition of adroit blocking, even to the flash- ing of the drum majorettes ' knees at half-time. Faculties are not , to echo the words of Oxford' s A. L. P. Norrington , made up of morose celibates moving amid their ivory towers. But the college professor also knows the inside story of the football mess. He knows , as few people off-campus can be expected to know , what hiring a crew of gladiators to entertain the crowd on Saturday afternoon can do to the academic perspectives of a col- lege or university. He contem- p lates the slimness of academic budgets in the light of recent re- ports that $500 , 000 was spent with a single airline in the 1960 foot- ball season to fly college teams to distant points for Saturday ga- mes. And this in a time when the national median salary for a full professor is something like $9 , 107 a year. During the 1961 football season there has been increasing evidence that thoughtful administrators , both on small and large campuses , sense that the time may have come for a meaningful counterattack on the elements that strive to keep \big-time \ athletics a big part of the college scene. They read the sports pages as do most Ameri- cans, and they see in the shift of interest to burgeoning profes- sional athletics a chance , long awaited , for higher education to disengage itself from the football mess. As Henry Steele Commag- er of Amherst put it in a New York Times article some months ago : \Give the games back to the students. \ But the pressures against such action are still intense , and col- lege administrators may well be excused for being timorous. There are signs , however , tha t the bel- eaguered administrators may well find their best allies within their own student bodies and in the ranks of their alumni, among groups that are as disenchanted as professors with the mess in inter- coll< giate athletics. \This country is interested in other things , \ Stanley Baar told a meeting of the Middle Atlantic District of the American Alumni Council on January 19 , 1961. \You look to your university now not for the score of last Satur- day ' s game but for the part it is p laying in world problems. \ Such a statement made 10 years ago would have earned its utterer a bushel of brickbats , or the de- mand that he send back his dip loma to his outraged Alma Mater. To- day, with headlines growing black- er by the hour , it occasions com- mendations from many, and groans only from those who can 't realize that if one shouldn 't fiddle while Rome burns one had better not be too obsessed with games either. Or , as Tee Moorman of Duke , a last year ' s All-American , put it: \Football is a business. After you find out the facts , the fun wears off. \ (Prepared and released as a pub- lic service by Franklin and Mar- shall College) TO BE SUCCESSFUL — ADVERTISE Gordon Heights Mrs. Alberta Beach.
