. . . Richard A. Hungerford
"Count the wealth of man by his 'loyalt friends." so said a famous
philosopher. Then, since Dick Hungerford's friends are legion, he is
tine of the richest men in life.
» * * *
On first meeting Mr. Hungerford, one is impressed with his congenial
and understanding nature. His voice is warm and pleasant; his appear-ance
is handsome; and the look
in his eyes speaks of sincerity.
It is easily understood why so
many think so highly of him. Yes,
and it is still easier to see that
Dick possesses that priceless char-acteristic
of true friendliness.
* * *
Although born in Newark. N.Y.,
thirty-four years ago, his child-hood
was spent in Syracuse where
he 'attended the public schools and
was graduated from Syracuse High
School. He then attended and was
graduated from the Simmons
School of Mortuary Science where
his post-graduate work won him a
special diploma for derma-surgical
application. " Mr. Hungerford then
became associated with the River-side
Memorial Chapel in New York
City. This Chapel has the distinc-tion
of being a leader in the field
of mortuary service. Mr. Hunger-ford
served in an official capacity
•with this large organization. He
has been serving Freeport and this
TR>ITC^H«A*TR?DO A* . iTHTUroNrGiroEiRrrFkTOCRnD lothcea liptya gta sg lax yFeu&nres ra&ln dD i^re clotocra lefodr
at 30 Bedell Street. Prior to this period he was associated with Long
Island Funeral Directors in professional preparation.
• • • •
The Dick Hungerfords, (she was formerly Mary Elizabeth VandeCaT
of Syracuse, N. Y,) reside at 29 Bedell st. in Freeport. Among many other'
organizations he is most active in the Freeport Lions "Club, Freeport
Lodge of Elks, Chamber of Commerce, Holy Name Society of Our Holy
Redeemer Church, Usher Society, and Is Grand Knight of the Bishop
Molloy Council, Knights of Columo us, No. 1974.
_ * * - * •
During his school days Dick was active in various sports starring in
High School track events. His busy daily schedule now allows only very
little time for an occasional game of golf. Any free time he finds is
spent making new friendships and renewing old ones.
* * * •
This is Richard A. Hungerford; rich in life, because you—-"Count
the wealth of man by his loyal friends." "
High School Parents

A large audience enjoyed the pro-gram
presented by Lowell Patton
under the auspices of the Freeport
Junior and Senior High School Par-ent
Teacher Association Monday
night in the school auditorium. He
entertained with music and stories,
and was introduced by Richard
Porter, the program chairman.
Honorary life-memberships were
presented to Miss Ruth E. Cochran,
assistant principal, and Martin M.
Mansperger, principal of the school.
Hugh Erwin, membership chair-man

Freeport Acres Development
Seen As. Local Coral Qables
Representatives of building roneerns, realtors, niortirajrc
bankers and brokers, the press and other fields, who inspected
the $16.990 ranch bouse at South Long Beach ave, and Front St.,
first of 110 to be erected by a group
of developers in the southern area
of the village, pictured the project
as destined to turn the section into
another Coral Gables. The house
was opened for public inspection
Sunday and has since been viewed
by numerous interested in locating
in this area. -
Frank Spinetta,. Charles Schneid-er
and • Milton Bergman, veteran
Frefeport and Nassau County build-ers,
-are behind the $2,000,000 de-velopment
which is to be known as
Freeport Acres. Property acquired
by the group extends from Front st.
south to Hamilton st. and from
Woodcleft ave. west to Roosevelt
ave.
Each of the ranch style homes
will be located on a plot 7,000 square
feet or larger within a few blocks of
Randall Park, Randall "Bay and
other waterfront facilities. Elmore
L. Keener, Freeport realtor, is in
charge of sales. -
Matern and York Designers
Designed by Matern & York, Ja-maica
architectural firm, the house
differs from most ranch style dwell-ings
being erected today. It -is built
;.around a -foyer and hall which con-nects
all robins. This permits free-dom
of traffic flow 'through the
house without ever entering the
oversized 29x12 foot living-dining
room. . • .
The house is described as a six-room
dwelling, but an enclosed porch,
10-feet square, is finished as a
seventh room'and can be made part
of the dining room merely by sliding
back a 10-foot-wide door. In sum-
