Congratulations

It is a real pleasure for me to be able to report to the stu-dents in the Port W a s h i n ^ o n High School that I consider the orchestra trip to Columbus an o u t s t a n d i n g educational achievement. I am more proud than I can express of the hon-ors earned by our musicians. They have brought credit to our school, not only for their musical training, but equally for their character, personality, and training. It is a great sat-isfaction to be told by people from many states that our mus-ical performance is superior. I t is perhaps even more gratifying to be told what a fine group of students we have. Th e home background and the work of the entire faculty is reflected in such praise.

I congratulate Mr. V a n Bode-graven on his splendid w o r k ; I congratulate the musicians on their outstanding achieve-ments; and I congratulate the parents and faculty on the re-sults of their efforts. I am proud to be associated with a com-munity and a school which can provide such opportunities and achieve such results.

There is just one regret that T feel on my return from this trip. T h a t is that the entire student body and faculty could not enjoy it with us. My senti-ments while in Columbus could have been expressed only by sending you al l a message read-i i ig : " H a v i n g a fine time, wish you were here . " Only by being there is it possible to fully ap-preciate the pleasures and va l -ues of such an experience.

Superintendent Schreiber Congratulates Orchestra !

I consider myself priv-leged to have been present at the recent Music Contest at Columbus, Ohio, to wit-ness the performance of our high school orchestra, and to experience the thri l l of deep pride at the signal recognition accorded the members and their leader.

I believe the lasting value of their achievement lies not in the judges' rating alone, because that in time wil l be forgotten. Rather, their suc-cess is a forceful illustration of the truest principles of education, and one by which we may al l be guid-ed : perseverance and per-sistent effort, in any subject, wil l win success.

HOME ROOM HAPPENINQS

I n last week's "Inquiring Repor ter" of the Por t Weekly, a number of seniors were asked whe ther or not they though t t h a t the n in th grade should be encour-aged to a t t end the Jun ior Prom. The great majority of the people interviewed obviously intended to discourage any of us who had any such intent ions. A number of Junior high studes are slightly indignant about the answers received.

I suppose t h a t we could interview a lot of kids of the Jun ior High about the same question, having them pu t "cen-sored, yes" as their replies to make t h e m effective. But we won' t bother. We might also point out t h a t it 's the JUNIOR Prom, t h a t a fish and a half is no t to be kerchooed at, and t h a t the Seniors aren ' t paying to get in any-way. Very few Junior High kids will go any way, what with the r a t h e r hilly price and stuff. The opinion of t h e n in th grade might be summarized in two very expressive words "censored, censored."

Charl ie Cornell and Anton Holmberg did a thriving business wi th their cameras a t the May Pagean t last week. They contracted to take pictures of any of the young ladies in the th ing in costume for a st ipulated fee. They took some a t the rehearsal Tuesday and the rest after the festival was over on Thursday. They really did a swell busi-ness especially of snaps of the May Queen and her a t t endan t s . Some of his customers and the pictures wanted follow: Ber t Schauer wanted a couple of Mary Nicholson and one of Phyllis Warren. Harvey Witheral l h a d one taken of Char lo t te Gril les Bu tch Cramblet also wanted one of Cha r -lotte. May Queen Phyllis War ren too

Bill Ames had film used on Bet ty O'Brien Jack Lordi had them t aken of three of the gals Pau la Read was in demand with Mike Cherry, Charl ie Cipriano, and plenty of others, Eddie Grzejka wanted one of Mary Nichol-son and, oh yes, Ernie Mazur has one of Phyllis War ren . This list is part ial . The firm of Cornell and Holmberg wish it announced t h a t they have duplicates for sale of all these, and other, photos. I t is rumored t h a t they had a commis-sion for one of Miss Mallon ( the n e m e -sis of the Port Jun ior stafif). This r e -por t i:: ut ter ly t rue.

J. Starkweather Writes Essay on Constitution

The Consti tut ion Essay Contest, con-ducted by the New York Times and pa r -ticipated in by Miss Atwater 's 9B's was won by J e a n Starkweather . A variety of titles were given but the winner chose "The Const i tut ion: A Living Doc-u m e n t " which was somewhere specified in one- thousand words. Each school was awarded a first prize of $10.00 and a bronze medal .

Nancy Shakespeare 's essay on "The Powers of the President Under the Const i tu t ion" was a very close rival to the wirmer's but as J e a n S ta rkwea th -er's was done in a somewhat bet ter style Nancy had to be content with honorable mention.

Lunch Room Figures Show Pupils Like Nourishment

A visit to our cafeteria disclosed the fact t h a t the boys and girls of our school dr ink about 96 bottles of milk on clear days and on rainy days, the mob drains from 150 to 200 bottles. I n spite of rumors t h a t bread is de-vastat ing to the figure, about a half dozen long sandwich loaves are done away with each day. About 8 gallons of home made soup and 25 cans of soup flow into empty s tomachs each noon, while canned goods also have a heavy toll. When we get to desserts we see t h a t about four pounds of cook-ies a re consumed and "tons"of ice cream are lapped up as hot weather approach-es. You won't ever be lonely in t h e lunch room. About 300 a t t end on boom days. The average a t tendance from junior high is 125 hungry customers.

Doyle s Team Defeats Starin Nine In Boys' Baseball Tournament This is undoubtedly a season of top-

heavy scores, w h a t wi th scores like 14-3, 11-1, and 18-14 and now, the larg-est of t hem all 32-7.

This unanimous defeat was t aken by C. Star in ' s squad and the t eam scor-ing such a unanimous decision was F . Doyle's squad.

The game was played last week on the junior high diamond. The batteries for the day were C. S ta r in and Michael Cumuo for the former's team and P . Doyle and H. Golden for Doyle's team. P rank Miller was the leading hi t ter of the day with two home runs and three doubles, not to ment ion a single or two.

Behind The Scenes Of A Gay May Festival There was more t h a n appeared on the

surface a t the recent May Festival. For instance no one saw Miss Kinne, Miss Armer, and Miss Far l inger holding the fort in the audi tor ium during the show. Did you know t h a t Mary J a n e Ford 's au thent ic Scotch skirt danced but Mary J a n e was a Japanese? Did you miss the castanets in the Spanish dance? Sally Dusinberre says her knees served the purpose very well. Have you seen the posters t h a t were displayed advertising the affair? J o a n Wright ' s was good. Caroline Dissosway says the pagean t was harder work for the boys t h a n the girls. They had to keep away from the windows during rehearsals . Have you seen the snapshots t aken during r e -hearsals? And did you hear the cheers the girls gave Mrs. Nicoll after the per-formance? We all agreed t h a t she 'd earned them.

Crime Play Amuses Pupils Last week's "Crime Club Mystery"

assembly showed us t h a t Mike Cuomo is well on his way to p u t Hugh Herbert out of business. Tom Kidney made a good courtroom figure, and Gerda Zerm's act was highly applauded.

on points: Attractiveness, Neatness, a n d Apparent In teres t and Activity of t h e pupils. The judges will review the bulle-t in boards, blackboards, p lants and flowers, pictures and other decorative features of the room. I n addit ion they will inspect desks, floors, closets, a n d window sills for evidence of nea tness and good housekeeping on the pa r t of the homeroom pupils. Lastly, they will ra te the room as a workshop. This r a t e -ing will be based on the books of refer-ence and enter ta inment , work displays and other hobbies which are and actual par t of the homeroom routine.

Pupils have expressed great Interest in the contest, and many rooms have taken on a shiny new look since the announcement of the competition. The last day of inspection is Wednes-day.May 26. The winner will be a n -nounced on Friday, May 28. Mr. J o h n -son will award the prize. Bob Bessell, Miss Merr iman, and Mrs. Markle form the committee of judges.

Honorable ment ion will be given to the two homerooms which are next in line to the winners. At th is date, Mr. Johnson has not revealed the na tu re of the prize He has said, how-ever, t ha t the prize will help to beautify the room which is for tunate enough to win it.

MAKE THOSE HIGH HOPES COME TRUE!

Your mother wants you to achieve a place of responsibility. Your father expects you to earn finan-cial independence. You hope to make a name for yourself. Make those high hopes come true. A degree of B. S. in Pharmacy is the positive way to do it!

I

T h e possessor of a B. S. in Pharmacy is well on the road to security right from the start. Provided he is properly and thoroughly trained, he is prepared for success i n no less than 50 different kinds of jobs — from pharmacist to owner of a pharmaceutical manufacturing enterprise. That sort of frain-ing is imparted at the Long Island University Brooklyn Col-lege of Pharmacy. H e r e . . . amidst congenial surroundings, provided with all needed equipment for practical experi-ence, under the guidance of an imderstanding faculty . . . he will be taken through all the successive steps that lead to a successful professional career in a field famed for its nimierous employment opportunities.

The iiist step towards making those high hopes come true is consulting with ypur Grade Adviser. The second is sending for our Bulletin of Information. Take bftlh—now.
