BHS Student Wins $ 18,000
Grumman Scholarship
Think

Mark C. Reuss, a 1984 graduate of Bethpage
High School, has won a Grumman Science and
Engineering Scholarship. It is worth up to
$ 18,000 — $4,500 a year for four years toward
tuition at any accredited engineering college of
the winner's choice.
Reuss's scholarship also gives him summer
employment and comprehensive counseling at
Grumman throughout his college career, and a
permanent job with the company after graduation
if an applicable position is available. Mark will
study engineering at Tufts University.
Mark C. Reuss of Bethpage shares joy of winning
Grumman Science and Engineering Scholarship
with his parents, Werner and Ruth.
Reuss graduated first in his class at Bethpage,
one of many accomplishments in his well-rounded
high school career.
He is proficient in German, Italian and Spanish
and was involved in the theatre at school. As if
language studies, rehearsals and all the homework
necessary to stay number one in his class
were not enough, Reuss was also a sports enthusiast
who played on his school's varsity football and
wrestling teams. He has been honored by the
Bethpage Rotary as Student Athlete of the year.
Naturally, his dad, Werner Reuss, a supervisor
of Systems Maintenance Services for Grumman
Data Systems, a Grumman Corporation subsidiary,
is proud as can be of his son. (At least three
of the Grumman winners each year m'usT be
dependents of Grumman employees. Mark was
one of six such winners this year, out of a total of
16 high school seniors throughout Long Island.)
"But more important than all the_awards and
the class ranking," says dad, "is that Mark is a
generous and down-to-earth person who is willing
to share his time and energy to help anyone. And
for that more than anything his mother and I are
proud of him."
Since the Grumman scholarship program
began in 1944, Grumman has awarded over $3-
million to some 455 Grumman scholars, including
this year's winners.
Over 230 applicants responded to the scholarship
program's general call to Long Island high
schools this year. Of that number 42 finalists were
interviewed by the Grumman Recommendations
Committee.
"The 16 winners this year," says Renso L.
Caporali, senior vice-president for Technical
Operations at Grumman Aerospace Corporation,
main subsidiary of Grumman Corporation,
"represent what the company believes are the
individuals with the best possible chances of making
successful careers and contributions in our
industry.
Caporali says that the members ot the committee
look for several important things in the
contestants.
"First of all," he says, "if they have made it as
far as the 42 finalists, obviously their academic
achievements are very high and have already been
taken into account.
"What we are looking lor in the final stages of
selection," says Caporali, "are young people with
the kind of personality characteristics that make
them desireable working companions, should
they ever come to Grumman. We look for well-rounded
individuals who are really interested in
becoming aerospace engineers and scientists and
would lit in well here at Grumman."
TOWN WATERS
SAVE LIVES
JOSEPH COLBf a ^
Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Colby (left)
and Clinton Smith, Supervisor of Conservation
and Waterways, check out D.W.I, signs that have
been placed at Towns marinas and boat launching
ramps as part of the Town's ongoing D.W.I.
Awareness Program. With the easy accessibility
of both the Atlantic Ocean and inland waters on
the Town's south shore and Long Island Sound
on the north shore, boating is one of the most
popular summer activities for Town residents.
The signs are to remind people about the hazards
of drinking and operating a boat. Boaters are
urged to limit their intake of alcoholic beverages,
to space drinks and to provide food so that the
ellects of any alcohol are lessened...in other
words. Think Before You Drink.
