Text from Pages 1 - 82 of the 1954 volume:

memoiRS 1954 andovcR centRAl school Let's give a cheer for Andover High School And let us pledge to her aright Others may like black or crimson, But for us it's purple and white. Let all our troubles be forgotten. Let high school spirits rule. We'll join and give a royal effort For the good of our old school. Andover High School! Andover High School! The pride of every student here. Come on you old grads, Join with us young lads. Andover High School, now we cheer Rah! Rah! Now is the time, boys. To make a big noise, No matter what the people say. For there is naught to fear, The gang's all here. So Hail, Andover High School Hailin memoRiAm The time is the graduation of the class of '54, the place-Andover High, and as we stand in the door waiting to step outside for the last time, our happiness is marred by only one thing-- that two fine people couldn’t be here to share our joy, Ruth Elizabeth Atwell and Donald Sutherland. Ruth Elizabeth Atwell was born to Mr. and Mrs. Wilmer Atwell in Whitesville on June 14, 1936. Her life was taken on May 7, 1952 in an automobile accident. Donald Robert Sutherland was born to Mrs. and the late Darwin Sutherland on October 1, 1934 and in June of 1948 he was fatally Injured by the turning over of a tractor, dedication It Is with the utmost sincerity and highest degree of respect that we, the seniors of 1954, dedicate our year book to Mr. Charles M. Williams, who has helped make this year the most enjoyable year the class has ever had. We bestow upon him our sincere appreciation and gratitude for his untiring effort in being our class advisor, as well as being A. C. S.’s high school history teacher. Mr. Williams has been a magnet to which every senior has been drawn at one time or another to help fulfill our class activities. Charles M. Williams was born in Stuebenvelle, Ohio, and was graduated from Olean High School. He was graduated from St. Bonaven-ture and later attended Columbia University, Alfred University, and Syracuse University. He taught a year at Scio Central School before coming to A. C. S. to become high school history teacher and senior class advisor. This is his second year at Andover. And It Is with great enthusiasm that the class of ’54 gives this honor to Mr. Williams and hopes he will continue to teach at A. C. S. for many years to come. fORGWORd Our school means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. It’s primarily a school of learning. English, math, science, agriculture, business, history, music, homemaking, and art are a variety of courses to arouse the interest of each individual student. But that isn’t all the school is teaching us. Responsibility, initiative, and private thinking are encouraged through discussions and participation in extra-curricular activities to fit us as young adults in a world in which communism and democracy are each striving for domination. As we look out into the world, we see many new hopes and new dreams. We realize that soon we are to leave Andover Central School. It is now time for our yearbook. May many happy memories come to those who leaf through the pages of this book. May our work not be in vain. ' We give to you our book.THE ’54 MEMOIRS Mr. Johnson, Charles Davis, Mimsi Briggs, Mary Joyce.

The success of the students of 54 was clearly seen through out the banquet. Miss Briggs, the new Brenda Starr of the “New York Times ’ arrived early to get all the necessary data for her column. We find that Miss Mary Jane Sackett has become famous as she recently won the title “Miss America of 1964. Miss Mary Ann Joyce, and Professor of Mathematics at Vassar could not attend as she was not able to find anyone capable of taking her job during her absence. Mr. Tim Marsh, now famous traveler and explorer, was slated as speaker for the banquet. Mr. Marsh’s topic was “Marcia , his newly discovered continent which he has returned from exploring. To the disappointment of his old classmates. Dr. Ted Smith was called away on an emergency case and had to hurry away in his new Cadillac. As we look around the table we find many young seniors receiving advice from Miss Beverly Loucks who is now writing Dorothy Dix's Love Lorn Column. We find another famous classmate. Miss Mildred Miles exclaiming to Miss Betty Tanner how wonderful her recent book of poems is.Miss Miles is now a world-known poetessand artist and her latest painting is hanging in the Art Gallery of Gay Parii. Mr. Rogers Theetge, now a world famous race driver, is seen telling how he won the Le Mans sport car race in France with his new Jaguar. From the class of 54 there are many nationally know people. Mr. James Grossman is now the Treasurer of the United States, and Miss Betty Kemp is secretary to the President. Mr. Charles Davis is now a nationally praised engineer. The Davis Company (Davis Vickers) have recently completed the construction of a bridge across the Atlantic Ocean. Mr. Charles Lehman is widely known in the sports world as he has taken Mel Allen’s position as play by play announcer for the New York Yankee Games. Also known by all sport fans is Mr. Les Monahap. Mr. Monahan is now the Yankees star pitcher but is digging ditches on the side to support his very extravagant wife, the former Patricia Baker. Out of this outstanding class we find many are well known in the social world. Miss Carol Jean Nye now has her own show at the Stork Club and Miss Virginia Kibbe is the top singing star on the T.V. Hit Parade. Miss Ruth Davis is now a famous model for Mademoiselle of Paris. Mr. Gerald Green has recently arrived home from his trip around the world where he has been lecturing on how to raise cattle. To the surprise of everyone the marriages of the celebrities of the class of 54 have been few. We learn that the former Miss Wanda Thorpe is now married to Mr. John Baker and making a happy home for their family. The former Miss Patricia Reisman was unable to attend the banquet as she is on her honeymoon at the Riviera. Mr. James Mickle, who now owns a thousand acre farm, wasn’t able to attend the banquet. Mr. Mickle is in the middle of harvesting his new crop, a cross between a potato and a carrot to simplify stew making. The well known Mr. Dale Kenyon unexpectedly arrived after he had finished making the modern version movie of Rudolph Valentino. We find that Mr. Leo Glover, Mr. Kenyon’s old school buddy, is stationed in Alaska for the International Salesman. Miss Charlotte Case has become a very important person in the village of Andover as she is now Post Mistress. Miss Case is going to be sure she doesn’t miss any letters from Mr. Dick Clark. We find Miss Carol Harris discussing the part she plays with the Ringling Bros, circus as a midget. Sharing fame for the class of 54 is Miss Sandra Skuse. We learn that she is now the world’s fastest typist and has won the national typing contest with a speed of 135 words per minute. As the banquet comes to a close we find Miss Ann Marvel speaking to Miss Anna Marie Joyce about her well established business as a marriage broker on 42nd street in New York City. Miss Joyce is telling of all the pleasures of her new job as private secretary to Eddie Fisher. As the Banquet closed everyone expressed their enjoyment in being re-assembled and discussing their wonderful, unforgettable years in the halls of A.C.S. inquip inq r epoRteR NAME SHE IS SHE THINKS SHE IS SHE WOULD LIKE TO BE SHE IS ALWAYS SEEN M.

To Miss Taylor we leave a ticket toParis—"They say the Frenchmen are pretty nice. Miss Taylor.” To Mrs. Green we leave a new book of methods to cure aches and pains sther than sleeping and soaking. To Mr. Holden we leave "Liberace’s” ability to play the piano. To Miss Winkleman we leave a giant size box of pep to feed her orchestra in the coming years. To Coach Stackwick, we leave a new stick because we feel that so many guys have been told to get on the stick, it might break at any time. To Miss Mastromonaco, we leave a new kind of car made of hard rubber that will stand the bumps and bangs of her driving. To Mr. Bronson, we leave a different bow and arrow so he will stand a better chance of getting a deer next year.

To Mrs. Joyce, we leave a lounge in her room so all the teachers won’t have to sit on the same chair when they come to visit her. To Miss Madison, we leave a box of "Cream of Wheat” to give her vim and vigor after a week-end in Buffalo. To Mr. Johnson, we leave a padlock so he can lock up his 2 h pencils which always disappear after mechanical drawing class.

To Miss Gates, we leave an upper and lower plate of teeth which she can practice on in her spare time. To Mr. Gibbs, we leave a private secretary to take care of the report cards that pile up on his desk after exams. Signed and Sealed Class of ’54 CUSS hlStORV As we near the end of our high school careers, we begin to wish we were back in the seventh grade again. At the close of school in the sixth grade, Donald Sutherland left us when his father’s tractor tipped over. In the seventh grade, we were divided into two homerooms, Mrs. Margaret Joyce’s and Mrs. Ethel Gath’s. Although we had our ups and downs in that year, it was a happy one. In our eighth grade, Mr. Carlyle Carmody was our homeroom teacher. Although we were in the same homeroom, the class was divided. Since Mrs. Ethel Gath left, we had Mrs. Mary Baker from Wellsville as our English teacher. Ronald Sweet, Irene Hulburt, Darrell Brown, Raymond Halsey, and Edgar Silsby left that year making the class somewhat smaller. During that year, Charlotte Case was welcomed to our eighth grade class. In our freshman year, Mrs. Marie McFadden was our homeroom teacher. Mary Button, Clair Van-Schaick, and Virginia Kibbe were Welcomed by our ninth grade class. Francis Hann, John Atwell, William Elster, and Richard Clark left the freshmen. In June of our freshman year, Ann Wood left to attend school in Canisteo. In our sophomore year, Donald Kuzak joined our class, but left us soon. David McHenry entered our class, and Irene Hurlburt was welcomed back by her old classmates. Douglas Wheaton also left for the Marines.It seems Gerald Green did the most blushing that year when he was selected to read the love scenes from the original plays which were written for class presentation. During Christmas vacation that year Mrs. Mary Dougherty left us to join her husband. Mrs. Bertha Miller took her place as Home Economics teacher. Betty Ann Kemp, Ruth Atwell, Sandra Skuse, and Shirley Tidd all took agriculture from Mr. Glenn Bronson that year while Anna Marie Joyce, Mimsi Briggs, and Carol Jean Nye were cheerleaders. Ted Smith, Charles Lehman, Jack Rosintoski, Gerald Green and George Wheeler played Junior Varsity while Leslie Monahan and Charles Davis played Varsity. Charles Davis was president of the seventh, eighth, ninth, and eleventh grade homerooms. Mimsi Briggs was president during the sophomore year. Ted Smith was vice-president of his ninth, tenth and eleventh grade homerooms. In the ninth grade Mary Ann Joyce was class secretary and Carol Jean Nye was secretary in the tenth grade. Mimsi Briggs was treasurer in our freshman year and Carol Jean Nye handled the money during our sophomore year. Student Council representatives for our Freshman year were Douglas Wheaton and Charles Davis. In our sophomore year Leslie Monahan represented us. Gerald Green represented us last year and Charles Davis represents us this year. When we entered our junior year we found that Ruth Atwell, Catherine Kemp, and Irene Hurlburt were no longer with us. WandaThorp, Martin Halbert and Clair VanSchoick left us before the year was over. What a crazy bunch we were last year and what odd odors we created in the chemistry laboratory, when we weren’t blowing things up, that is. Charles Davis was president; Ted Smith, vice-president; James Grossman, treasurer; and Leslie Monahan was secretary. Our junior play “Who Killed Aunt Carolyn" was a big success. Mary Jane Sackett, Mimsi Briggs, Sandra Skuse, Betty Ann Kemp, Mary Ann Joyce, Carol Jean Nye, Millie Miles and Virginia Kibbe were the actresses whileCharles Davis, Ted Smith, Gerald Green, and Dale Kenyon were the actors. The most cheerful day of our junior year was the day we picked out our class rings. As we entered our Senior year at A.C.S. we discovered that David McHenry and Shirley Tidd had left us. Later in the first semester James Yannie joined the Navy and Jack Rosintoski transferred to Belmont and later joined the Army. Evan Dolan returned to A.C.S. as a Senior this year but joined the Air Force at the close of the first semester. This year Ted Smith is our president, Mary Ann Joyce our vice-president, Mary Jane Sackett our treasurer, Mimsi Briggs our Secretary and Dale Kenyon our class historian. We cannot say that our Senior year has been too disappointing, for we have worked together, argued, had fun and planned for that night when Mr. Kessler hands each of us our diplomas. Roger Theetge, Mary Ann Joyce, James Padden and James Mickle all have cars to drive this year. Ted Smith, our president, has taken on a great deal of responsibility as a class officer. Mary Ann Joyce has also worked extra hard. Mimsi Briggs is still gening the A’s In English, while Betty Ann Kemp is still a little on the shy side. Some girls find it difficult to get boy friends but as you can see that isn’t Ann Marvel’s problem. Carol Jean Nye became engaged to Jessie Grossman. James Grossman can be seen working in the Market Basket Store every other week. Tim Marsh holds the record for being kicked out of class. Gerald Green found writing to English girls interesting this year. Dale Kenyon entertained the English class occasionally by reading letters which he received from English girls. These notations are not meant tohurt character, but to record memories of the grand class of 1954. We sincerely hope that our Alma Mater is as proud of us as we are of it. Like any other class we have a class debt to pay. This yearbook is, naturally, a part of our debt. In order to pay this debt we have sold magazines, puf on a play, a square dance, had a bake sale, had a refreshment stand at the school fair, and we are also looking forward to the Senior Ball, Class Banquet and Senior dinners to raise money.This yearbook was paid for primarily by selling subscriptions and advertisements. The subscriptions were sold by Ted Smith, Mary Ann Joyce, Tim Marsh, Leo Glover, and Dale Kenyon. The advertising was handled by Roger Theetge and his committee. Our Senior play “Just Ducky,” starring Mary Ann Joyce, Mimsi Briggs, Carol Jean Nye, Mary Jane Sackett, Mildred Miles, Ruth Davis, Charles Davis, Ted Smith, Gerald Green, James Grossman, Tim Marsh, and Dale Kenyon was a dramatic success. We are indebted to Mrs. Bartz for her endurance in making our Junior and Senior plays possible. Charles Davis is in his 13th year of perfect attendance while Ted Smith won the county oratorical contest and placed fourth in the district contest. We also attended the Fall Festival at Alfred University where Sandra Skuse placed fifth in the typing contest. Sandra was the only prize winner In Allegany County. national. honoR society The National Honor Society specifies that only 15% of the students in the senior class, and the same percentage of the junior class are eligible to become members of this select society. To be a member of this group means that a student must excel among his classmates in leadership, scholarship, character, and service. Students are elected to membership by the faculty. The two juniors elected this year are Lucille Smith and Anne Harvey.

Our interpretation of Exchange is the giving of self for the privilege in return of serving others; of parting with selfishness and receiving in return the satisfaction of discharging our duty to our Fellowmen, to our Community and to our Nation. We, the members of the Exchange Club of Andover, hope that the Senior Class of '54 will set this as their goal.Congratulations and Best Wishes CLAIRS REXALL PHARMACY Careful Prescription Service Compliments of ANDOVER NATIONAL RANKCompliments of Compliments of CLARA AND MARGARET SHORT'S SERVICE STATION "Jerry” Hyland DINET Diamond Rings -Bulova, Elgin, Longines-Wittnauer, Hamilton Croton "Shockproof" Watches "Herm" Wallace FLOYD C.
