dTbe Portree MP Vol. XXVI—No. 24 Port Washington Senior ffigh, Friday, May 16. 1952 PRICE TEN CENTS Rohloff Competes 111 French Exam. The National French Test sponsored by the American As- sociation of Teachers was held on April 27 and 28. The student who was eligible to enter the Oral Contest from Miss Buck- ley's French 1 classes was Wil- ma Rohloff. Wilma was invited to attend Adelphi College on May 15, with delegates from oth- er schools all over Long Island. There were 1946 entries from 31 schools all over the Island. Wilma was chosen because of her score which was satisfactory. Wilma is formerly from New York City. This is her first year at a Port school. In New York she attended the N. Y. Junior High School 96. Student Of Week In the annual G. O. elections on April 26, the students of Port High elected a charming blonde sophomore to the office of sec- retary. Joan Brooks is certain- ly capable of fulfilling the re- sponsibility the students have placed in her by electing her to this post. While in junior high school, Joan displayed her lead- ership and citizenship by par- ticipating in most of the stu- Joan Brooks dent council activities. As an eighth grader she was secretary- treasurer of the school, and in ninth-grade she was president of the Girls' Athletic Association. While in senior high school, Joan has actively participated in most extra-curricular activities. She is a member of the tum- bling club, and took part inmost of the sports this winter. Al- though sports, coupled with va- rious other interests, consume much of her time, Joan is sure that they will not interfere with the execution of her duties as secretary. May 16 Orchestra trip to Riverhead,. 9:30 A.M. May 16 — Baseball at Garden City. May 16—Modern Dance Reci- tal, at 8:30 P.M. May 20—Baseball at Great Neck. May 23 — BasebaU, Mineola here. May 24 Carnival (unless it rains). 3rd H.S. Carnival Spotlights Big Top In just one week from tomor- row, weather permitting, Port Washington High School will present its third annual carni- val on the high school athletic field. All proceeds of this car- nival as in the preceding years, will go to a scholarship fund for the deserving students. Aside from usual type of booths run by the different home- rooms, a few new attractions have been added this spring. One of the main attractions will be a circus. This will include such features as clowns, tumblers, a magician, fortune teller, and many other circus novelties in- cluding perhaps a side show. This show will be given at dif- ferent intervals during the day, lasting from thirty to forty min- utes. There will also be a facul- ty show, though only one will be presented sometime in the afternoon. At 2:30 in the afternoon there will be a yo-yo contest open to all ages and sizes. This contest will be divided in the number of categories necessary to ac- commodate the contestants. A cotton candy machine has also been purchased for the great day. In addition to these extra-at- tractions the carnival will in- clude the usual features such as the House of Horrors, the pet parade, and the bicycle parade. In the evening. Miss Carnival will be chosen by a beauty con- test; the drawing of the chances, a band concert, and dancing on the tennis courts will be the oth- er features in the evening. Mr. Hendrickson, the power behind the carnival, feels that for the success of the carnival, a greater cooperation between the students and the homerooms is needed. Modern Dance Club Presents Recital In Auditorium Tonight H.S. Pupils View Student Problems On Thursday, May 6, five stu- dents including Barbara Lyncn, Leonard Jacooy, Jay Greene, Preston Pumphrey, and Janet Kuhl attenaed a conference at Columbia University to discuss the problems pertinent to the average high schools in the metropolitan area. This confer- ence was held under the auspi- ces of the Metropolitan School Study Council. The day opened at 10:30 with an address by Dr. Dan Dodson, on the different topics under dis- cussion. A brief question and answer period was followed by a crowded and hazardous lunch in the school lunchroom. Imme- diately afterward, the large group of over two hundred stu- dents broke up into small dis- cussion groups. The topics that were on the agenda were School Spirit, Discrimination, Cliques, Cheating, The 3R's vs. Extra Cur- ricular Activities, Teen-age, Parent Relationships, Academic vs. Vocational, and last but not least School-Community Re- lationships. After the groups re- ported back to the auditorium a brief summary of all the groups was given before the entire au- dience in an effort to acquaint the entire group with the prob- 1 ms and the various solutions to these problems. Don Dawidoff, the students chairman, closed the meeting at 3:00. In an attempt to bring about some of the improvements speci- fied at the meeting, a report will be sent out to the different schools with the recommenda- tions of the committee. Band And Orch. Take Top Honors On May 10 Port Washington was excellently represeited when the Port Washington High School Band and the All School Or- chestra plus many soloists and ensembles competed at tne New York Statp School Musical Asso- ciation Competition Festival which was held at Bay Shore, Long Island. The band competed in grade six and received an A rating for their performance of "Emblem of Unity March", by J. J. Richards; "The First Move- ment from the Second Sympho- ny", by Borodin; and "Sympho- (Continued on page 4) Tonight at 8:30, the modern dancing classes will again put on their annual recital in the high school auditorium. Under the direction of Miss Foehren- bach the girls have been prepar- ing for this big event since the beginning of the school year. The entrance which includes numbers from ail classes i s , a South American theme called "South American Slants". The Sophomore number is "Freedom Seekers", the junior niunber, "Sibony", and the senior num- ber, "Shadrach". Sandwiched in between these attractions are "Dangerous Dan", "Date Time", "Waltzing Cats", and a new type of dance evolved from a poem with no music, "Steel", starring Dorin Oltarsh. The big number of the eve- ning is "The Sacrifice", a story revolving around a jungle legend. This feature stars Sally Robert- son and Lee Ann McGrath, the two modern dancing managers, and Nancy McDonough. As a special feature of the eve- ning, Audrey Neumann, an alumna of Port High, and a mod- ern dancer of no small talent, will dance a special number. Stanley Wins Jr. Red Domino Prize Last Thursday the Junior Red Domino presented a talent show in assembly. Katharine Brad- ley, the president of this or- ganization, awarded Charles Stanley the first prize of five dollars for singing "Jump Through the Ring". The second and third prizes were awarded respectively to Henry Bagienski for his rendi- tion of "Dance Me Loose" and Tom Dumpson who whistled "Please Mr. Sun". The other par- ticipants were Sandra Fitz, Bar- bara Colon, Shirley Crooker, Frances Clyde, Carol Spenard, Olga Osterholm, Riggy Wile and Laurie Newbold. Denis Brady, an active mem- ber of Red Domino, presided as master of ceremonies and the judges were Nicky Garment rep- resenting the senior class, Nun- zio Caparella representing the juniors and Ernie Jackson repre- senting the sophomore class.

T h e Home Stretch ' . . . And now they're swinging into the home stretch. It's been

a tough race, and the outcome wil l be decided soon. And here they come!"

With words similar to these, Clem MacCarthy described the closing moments of the Kentucky Derfcy. The home stretch, the part of the race just before the finish, was the most important part of the whole running. During this time, a horse which had quiet-ly remained behind surged ahead to win the horseshoe of roses.

The home stretch of the Kentucky Derby is very similar to the last marking period of the school year. During this time you can still apply yourself to your work and gallop ahead to finish the r-cp i " -5 b ' - T e plory. Or y " i can blov.' a good lead and lose the race entirely. While in the home stretch you can, theoretically, make up for all the mistakes you made previously. Actually, of course, no amount of hard work during the last marking period can make up for a poor start. Very often, however, hard work and serious application at the end wil l make a big difference. F u r -thermore, no matter how well you do in the beginning, a sloppy finish wil l hurt. The home stretch is certainly important; more imjjortant that the people who'd like to coast along during this time would care to think.

Pearls of Wisdom

Mistakes Made in Exams

1. The office of digestion is the stomach.

2. When we see an object, light passes through the eye and into the brain where little light exists.

3. The objective of " h e " is " she" .

4. A magnate is what gets i n -side apples.

5. A man is an animal half way up and walks on the split end.

6. A caucus is a dead animal. 7. How many wars were waged

against Spain? Six. Enumerate them. One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six.

I sincerely hope that everyone feels that he or she is a better performer and a better person for having made such preparation.

"As conductor of the band, I am deeply grateful to every member for the outstanding per-formance and the extra rehear-sals that they made possible. 1 rank Saturday's audit ion among the best of the past decade and i t is needless for me to attempt expressing my happiness con-cerning i t .

Still Five Hundred

The Port stickmen having add-ed two more games to the rec-ords are s t i l l r i g h t around the middle of the pack w i t h two wins and two losses. By today the Eeebermen w i l l have played Glen Cove again but the results weren't k n o w n Marts at press time. Tnis afternoon the Portmen invade Garden Ci ty to t r y to p u l l a repeat of the first game w i i n the Trojans when the former, behind B i l l Jankowski , slaughtered the latter , 13-3.

On Tuesday Port entertained Great Neck, but the Blazers brought their own fireworks to make i t hot for their hosts. For Port D i ck Wood started, but was able to last only 2/3 of an i n n -ing ; Tom Dumpson came i n to put out the fire, but when the smoke had settled the visitors had tal l ied a half a dozen runs on only two hits. Port t r i ed h a r d to get back i n the bal l game, scoring two i n the first, one i n the second and two i n the t h i r d off Benjamin, but Ray Dempsey came i n to slam the door on any fur ther scoring. The Blazers scored a single t a l l l y i n the f our th to p u t the game on ice. The two v i s i t ing pitchers gave up only one h i t ( L a n c i k i ) . Port 's runs were scored by: Canale, D u m p -son, Wood, Adami , and G i r a r -din.

The medley team didn ' t fare so we l l , though, finishing last i n a field of four.
