Etcetera for July 2025
Update: In the June 2025 issue we reported that John Maniec, HHS Class of 1964, was running in the Town of Bethel's Democratic Primary Election. Unfortunately he lost in the Democratic primary on June 24, but is still on the ballot for the November 4th general election as an independent candidate in the"KEEP US RURAL" ballot line.
Eugene Lewan commented on HHS Alumni Make Sure the Show Goes On: A Leo Gorcey and Huntz Hall shout out! Emma Meyer and the Tech Crew are in good company when the Bowery Boys are referenced. Nice work saving the recording of the production. Indubitably the rescue outcome was a success.
Eugene Lewan commented on Regents Exams: I recall during my geometry regents exam, I had an "ear worm" or stuck song syndrome (INMI - involuntary musical imagery ). Still to this day, whenever I hear the song "Cold As Ice" by Foreigner it brings me back to that test. I passed thankfully and had internal musical accompaniment that may have contributed to that outcome.
