The year 1945, we as a class began our study for the future. In 1953 we
could hardly wait to be promoted to high school. Now, we are impatiently
waiting to leave our Alma Mater and to capture what the future is holding
in store for us.
In our freshman year we chose Ellen Dorgan as our President. Our Vice-
President was Nina Belloff; Secretary, Kathy Parker and Treasurer, Alan
Wagner. Our student council representatives were Ellen Dorgan, Richard
Flaherty and Marjorie Badglcy. Under the leadership ol Mrs. I)unn we had
a successful food sale and a 1h x social. Larry Blair. Phyllis Frappier, Marion
Reeves and David Brown left us in this year.
We entered our sophomore year, consisting of 31 happy students, by
having Alan Wagner, President; George Smithlcr, Vice-President: Patricia
Smith. Secretary and Richard Flaherty, Treasurer. Mrs. Crumb was our class
advisor. Our student council members were Alan Wagner, Helen Nowak and
Charles Drake. We ordered our class rings and had a food sale. Aside from
this we did a lot of planning, but nothing materialized. Steve Millard joined
us in 1954.
When we became juniors in September 1955. our class advisor was Miss
Reed. We obtained our class rings in October. Our class projects were a food
sale, Junior Play and Junior Prom. We chose the following officers: President,
Richard Flaherty: Vice-President, Ellen Dorgan; Secretary. Kathy Parker: and
Treasurer, Steve Millard. Our student council representatives were George
Wetterhahn, Richard Flaherty and Nina Belloff.
In our senior and most important year at A. H. S. we lost Kathy Parker.
Kaye Sampson, Mildred Sidmore, Barbara Young and Keith Hockey. We
elected Ellen Dorgan. President: Richard Flaherty. Vice-President; Patricia
Smith, Secretary; and Steve Millard, Treasurer. Our student council repre-
sentatives were Ellen Dorgan, George Wetterhahn and Marjorie Baelgley. Mrs.
Howard was our class advisor. Our senior play Out ol the Frying Pan was a
smash hit. We had The North Country Ramblers and The Knights of Rhythm
play for the dances we gave. Graduating in June 1957 with 27 members, we
will leave our Alma Mater and enter the world on our own with this motto:
WE HAVE CROSSED THE BAY, THE OCEAN IS BEFORE I S.
i
[ II 1LAST WILL and TESTAMENT
We, the class of 1957 of Adams High School, of the Village of Adams in the County
of Jefferson in the state of New York, being of sane mind and sound body, do make, publish
and declare this our last will and testament, in the manner following we do sav:
FIRST—We direct that our just debts be paid by the Class of 1958
SECOND—We bequeath the following assets as herein set forth:
We the class of 1957, leave to the Board of Education, Mr. Scholtz and

worn out Mrs. Howard.
In witness thereof we have hereunto subscribed our names and affixed our seal, the
twenty fifth day of June in the year of Our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Fifty Seven.
[ Li jCLASS PROPHECY
Tonight I sal down to watch the T. V. program,
Memories of the Class.” Every Saturday night now
for the last ten years this program has featured dif-
ferent high school groups. I have dreamed that our
class would Ik on someday. Maybe tonight is the
night. The announcer l egan talking.
Charles Drake — there’s a classmate who finally
won a battle with himself. During high school. Charles
look Chemistry and he always wanted to try his luck
at putting Sodium in Water. Well, he finally did and
we haven't heard from him since. I wonder what
kind of a reaction he got.
|im Sinclair has gone to Antarctica to establish a
million dollar fur Hading company. Jim is still a
bachelor but he is keeping his eyes open.
Virginia Sprague has obtained a Nobel Literature
prize for revising the book Written on the Wind.” It
is now called “Scribbled on the Breeze. Ginny has
also written a three act play which the class of 70
will present at the old High School.
Larry Groff and Doug Murray arc the Martin
and Lewis” of 1970. They have their own television
show loo. I’m sure some of their classmates have seen
them. They always did like to fool around in school.
The foreman of the Elevated Shoe Co. Inc.” lo-
cated on the corner of Bond and Wardwell streets, is
Meredith Barrett. By the way. she uses these products
that her company manufactures.
Richard Flaherty also had big plans for his future
in Mathematics. We see that he did carry them out
to some extent. He is now working on the statistics
ol how many miles the average tramp walks in 71.97
hours.
Kay Wright finally married Jerry Quencer. Dur-
ing her senior year she did keep us busy guessing
though. She and Jerry are living in Brownville. They
have quite a large house but then with their six
children they need a good big one.
You have the honor of having one clergyman
from our class. He is Richard Prouty, Chaplain of
the United Stales Senate. Right after he graduated
from high school he started in on his climb to success.
Carol Chalmers is still called the Renowned
Traveler of the Class of ’57.” She is not married but
is engaged to Jimmy Pratt. They expect to l e married
on December 32. 20000. Carol never did believe in
rushing things and she still holds to this idea.
We see the Navy has (hedged out Sandy Creek
so that Admiral Wilson Rusho can sail his ship up
Spring Street instead of walking three times a day.
Wilson was very interested in the Navy hack in high
school.
Nina Belloff has a love lorn column in the Jeffer-
son (jtounty Journal. Askt 4 what was the surest way
to get a man, Nina replied Write letters. This is
what Nina did all through high school. By the way
she is still looking for a husband.
Coach Alan Wagner has the winning croquet and
(crochet) teams at Podunk High School in Alaska. We
hear they are all very fine sportswomen. A1 was al-
ways very interested in all kinds of sports.
“Miss America of 1960.” Yes. you have the honoi
f having a classmate who became quite a popular
[
gal. Pat Smith won her contest after starting as a
private secretary to a well known architect. A tall,
blonde haired, blue eyed girl does make a nice Miss
merica. Pat.
You all remember Rae Greenley as having an
extreme interest in sport’s articles. He has now
climbed to world fame in the sports world. He refei-
ees women wrestling matches in Madison Square Car-
den. I hear he has quite a rough time.
Barbara Shean is incorporated in the K.F.A. of
Belleville with Bob and all the Little Bobs. Bath
always kept us wondering back in high school.
David Smith was always very quiet except for the
times when he had his father’s car. He is now a test
driver for Roquette Inc. in Utah. I hear he is pretty
good too, for he got a lot of experience driving around
Adams.
You also have a famous spoits star in your class.
Coralyn Corky” Scofield now holds the title of scor-
ing the most baskets for the United Stales team.
I hose games you played at old A.H.S. did help, didn't
they?
During his high school days. Steve Millard's two
ambitions were to stay single and to continue his
study in Electronics. We see he has accomplished
both for he now lives in seclusion on the planet Mats,
where he owns and operates a Hi-Fi station.
Susan Sullivan is now private secretary at the
Ford garage in Adams. There she can Ik with Ted
Murray all day. Back in school Sue was always busy
with her studies so she didn’t get a chance to see
him verv often. I guess she's making up for lost time
now.
George Smithlcr has Finally completed a four year
course at Syracuse University in the last ten years.
He now manages the C.B-C.-Cobbville Broadcasting
Company.
Our Houghton college graduate. Sharon Widrig.
is now conductor of the Air Force Symphony at Thule.
Sharon has lost her shyness by working with all ol
her Air Force musicians.
Our perfect couple in high school was Ellen Dor-
gan and Robert I .a Lone. Bob is now head of the
(.rand Union chain while Ellen takes care of her own
little union.
Marjorie Badgley Taylor now a fashion consultant
for Christian Dior has a little trouble keeping up with
the fashion she creates. If the hemline g K s up any
farther she will Ik able to wear her old A.H.S. cheer-
leading uniform.
I he late Helen Nowak went to Africa to educate
(lie cannibals on the art of Nursing. They tried the
scalding procedure on her. This seemed appropriate
as she was always in “hot water” in high school.
We had a very difficult time finding George Wet-
terhahn. He is now a newspaper correspondent foi
United Press to Russia. That is, he was the last we
knew; for now he is in a concentration camp in Si-
beria. I wonder if he works as hard now as he did
hack in old A.H.S:?

dream came true. Tonight was the Memories of the
Adams High School Class of 1957.” What a program!Name Nick Name Favorite Saying
