Always smiling, never shirking, she has done her part to assure us of a year long to he remembered. We take this method of showing our deep appreciation for her co-operation. 5 9 wMimTRATlOH CXASL 4?vjl. -te OAiL Onckttkl A uAlcJL Uri fvOuu OuCCC |jJi ■ a£ ft.d t Jo U)jL -?uxn ck amtkcL pddto C-A-- ., A U rn. jpulk . l|n CUy cL AJSY cL A-y iL cLua. j o-rru klvJUm o xRjUJ 4$_e l| uaMu R Lj yX u£0 Tjo VVICAJZ.

W hile in the eighth grade, we, under tin fine leadership of Miss Watrous and Mr. Willard, worked very hard in putting on a Junior High Dance. It was the first of its kind in this school. Also, during that year the class participated in a Junior Choir which sang in Alfred for a group at the 1 niversity. Becoming Freshman our year was not too eventful. Several new teachers and several of the class dropping out made it hard to put on many events. While Sophomores even more pupils of the class dropped out either to join the armed services or to work, and our once large class became even more dwindled. However we did have a good year considering shortages in the transportation. Our Senior year started off a month late as did the rest of the classes. Karly in the fall we selected our class rings. The Senior Yearbook Stall selected Steve Saunders as Assistant hditor from the Junior class. Plans were made for a Junior Prom sometime in late March or early April. The class is looking forward to a great Senior year next year during which we plan the usual events plus those of our own invention. Cof 1946 22 Calais ofl 9-4$ Front How: Miss Jackson, J.

It is composed of sixteen strings at present though it is hoped that more will soon be added. The orchestra will make a public appearance sometime this year. It will probably be some time in June. ? . —senior The Senior Hand has been quite active this year. It has played at several basket- ball games and had the honor of being asked to play at the county playoffs at Horned. Officers are: President, D. Crump; Secretary, D. Mil- ler; Librarians, C. Crofoot, J. Drake; Managers, P. Saunders and N. Austin. .The band, who was well represented in dean is plan- ning to make an appearance soon. junior The Junior Band, under the auspices of Mr. Austin, has made its whereabouts known this year. It is com- posed of forty-four pieces— all of whom work together to produce some very nice effects. The Junior Band will take part in the Decoration Day Program. 33 unior oru5 Mrs. Irvine is the director of a fine group of young voices known as the Junior Chorus. This chorus is composed of fifty mixed voices. At Christmastime the chorus presented the cantata “Venite Adoramus” at an assembly program for the school and friends. A quartet composed of Barbara Harmon, Jean Drake, Judy Spicer, and Judy Burdick sang. The part of Mary was played by Mary Jane Ormsby, and Joseph was by Carl Bigby. Elaine Easton was the narrator. Phyllis Austin and David Ferry were representatives of the chorus at the music festival held in Olean this year. In December the chorus, in combination with four of the surrounding church choirs, gave the cantata “The Music of Bethlehem.” In the afternoon it was given at A ACS, and in the evening at Park Church in Horncll. Officers are: President, Phyllis Austin; Secretary-Treasurer, David Crump; Librarians, Cynthia Foster, Leo Johnson. The chorus is planing a concert. oruS 31 Senior CAST Herbert Brown, Jr. Herbert Brown, Sr. Harold Dillon Frank Stephens Peter Wright Mildred Clyde (iRbriel Pennington Zerusia Pennington Daisymay Pennington . Miss Thelma Smith Janet Smith Eleanor Barnes I he (-lass of ’ 15 was the second in the history of the school to have a Senior Play. The practices were all very good . . . despite the fact that we ran out of gas, and had to push the station wagon nearly to Almond once before we heard the first weak chug of it’s cold little motor. We came to school full of confidence in our dramatic abilities, certain that we were greatest acting troupe ever to be assembled (at least in this county) but we left our practices completely fagged and thinking that perhaps we might have been mistaken in ourselves. Perhaps. I lie play was produced on the evening of February third. There were the usual last minute scurry- ings . . . but we managed to start almost on time!! Miss Gildersleeve had charge of the make-up and she did a marvelous job considering what she had to work with, and we don’t mean the cos- metics. Luella Merritt, property manager worked for weeks after the performance trying to collect the scattered properties. And Carl Makely, lighting, was trying to help her? All in all we ended up quite proud of ourselves, and especially proud of our Producer-Director, Miss Paulsen, without whom we never would have had an opening night. 35 What? What hips Athlete?

HOORAY!” Is t hero a basketball fan in our student body who does not thrill when he recalls this wonderful cheer:1 What memories come to mind when we repeat lliese words and realize that another great year in Alfred-Almond’s sports history is fast drawing to a close. As t his year dashes away from us we relive the great moments. We remember the masterful handling of the teams by Coach Powers, who seemed to leave behind him a genuine feeling of goodwill and comradeship wherever he went. I he boys who would so faithfully under his careful eye, night after night, will never forget him in his moments of jubilance—and also in his dark moods, for he had these too. hen a high school team, as their record shows, can amass the amazing total of 833 points to their opponents 158, losing only two one-point verdicts, they really must be in a class by themselves. They averaged forty-four points a game while holding the opposition to a nice twenty-four. Words were never invented which can express the great feeling of pride that this memorable varsity has instilled in the hearts of Alfred-Almond citizens. Carlton Brown, Steve Saunders, Ken Wirt, Frank Snyder, Leo Johnson, Phil MacMicheal, Bruce Witter, Fran Schwartz, Fred Schwartz—1 “right combination, world’s best ball-players!’ I he way in which they exhibited team spirit, good sports- manship, and will-to-win will be remembered long after Iheir untimely one point loss to Sod us in the Section V Semi-finals in Rochester is forgotten. I hey were a fighting team—-a grand bunch of athletes, backed up by a grand student body, and led by the most capable cheerleaders in this section in the persons of Jeanne Kame, Betty Hicks, Anna Marie Snyder, and Joan Whitcraft. Need we say more, except to hope that all future teams will try to hold the Blue and Gold standard so high. 39 Gardiner, McMahon. Sutton, A. Hitchcock. It.
