Then ...




1. A 1948 graduate
of W. C. Mepham High School in Bellmore, he would produce results in a new medium.

2. After he graduated
 from Massapequa's

A. G. Berner High School in 1976, this class presi- dent not only reached for the stars but married one.
3. This 1953 graduate of
Manhasset High School went from the gridiron's Orange 11 to moviedom's Dirty Dozen.



4. Her nickname at
Harborfields High School in Greenlawn was Mirage, but this 1987 graduate's singing career turned out to be as big as her hair.

5-6. They had separate pictures in the 1969 yearbook from Calhoun High School in Merrick, but chances are they are mugging together in your supermarket aisle.



7. The 1960 Roslyn High School senior class voted him tallest, class writer and most likely to succeed: Right on all counts. 8. At Long Beach, this 1965 graduate was captain of the baseball team, and played in the high school bands. And he looked marvelous.
9. He dropped the first two letters of his last name -- it started with "la..." -- but this 1968 Malverne High School graduate never went down for the count in his acting career.



10. "I'll be singing," said Leslie Wunderman in the "What We'll Be Doing in the Year 2000" section of Baldwin High School's 1980 yearbook. Today: same goal.
11. Name the sport, and this East Islip High School graduate of 1979 passed with flying colors.
12. She was in the Calhoun High School choir, and this 1988 graduate's lyrics didn't get much racier once she hit the big time.



13. This Great Neck North High School alumnus, whose nickname was "Francie," graduated in 1956. Then Hollywood made him an offer he couldn't refuse.
14. This 1977 Massape-
qua High School graduate was a Future Homemaker of America her freshman and sophomore years.
15. He left Hicksville High School in his senior year without graduating, but this baymen's buddy was awarded a diploma 25 years later.



16. Her fellow student at Garden City High School in 1964 had more sense than her peers nowa- days -- they voted her most theatrical. "Bubbling with talent," the year- book said.
17. This class clown was voted most uninhibited and most musical at Nortport High School in 1967. No wonder she made it to the Great White Way and beyond.
18. This 1979 "most popular" Roosevelt High School graduate probably wouldn't trade places with any of his classmates for all the money in Beverly Hills.



19. At Commack High School South in 1980, she was homecoming queen, most school-
spirited personality and class clown. Today...well, she's still in character.
20. The Freeport High School yearbook doesn't mention any activities for this 1959 graduate, but he became a singer who's been known to take a walk on the wild side.
21. This 1961 graduate of West Babylon High School wrestled, ran track and was a student journalist. Now he's a big talker.



22. Nothing was listed on the activities roster for this 1972 Massapequa High School graduate --
appropriate, considering he's made a career of making us laugh about, well, nothing.
23. The fortitude-implying last name of this 1964 Great Neck South graduate turned out to be prophetic. She went on to head a major movie studio.
24. Here's the most shocking thing about this 1972 graduate of Rockville Centre's South High School:
