SCHWENKLER Always a loyal friend, kindly counselor, and rare humor- ist, Mr. Schwenkler has more than earned the title of "patron saint". Regarded as a "regular fellow" by all his students and associates, he has for several years acted as adviser of the Year- book, consequently, the office is not new to him. His dauntless energy and congeniality have made him many lasting friendships, and have acted as an incentive to the several staffs he has super- vised. Our faith in him will remain undiminished in the years to come. As a toast to Mr. Schwenkler, let us say: "Here's to the patron saint of the Class of 1936. May he ever remain in our hearts". FUREWORD n the years to 001116, when we have long since left our Alma Nlater and are scattered among lifeis divergent pathways, lnay this book recall to us niany happy memories of pleasant associations and last- ing friendships which we have fornied here. 77 77 77 K 44 44 FACULTY SENIORS OTHER CLASSES ACTIVITIES ATHLETICS FEATURES ADS C0 TENTS Pictures in this book vert' taken by Rc If ll Fl The Engravingq are bv ,Iahu ax 1d Oll The Book was printed by The Lommerciul I El K9 WW Ugj K X X2 QWJUNMJMMZJJJAE X. 5 M Wifgwffw -. ,K gf NV W FACULTY T0 MR. PARKER, a true scholar and a kindly principal, we wish to attribute the inspiration without which we could not complete a successful sojourn at the Elmira Free Academy. We extend to him our sincere gratitude. By dint of hard labor, he has made the Academy out- standing in scholarship and social perfection, an accomplishment attainable only by a person of sterling character and rigid perseverance. His cordial interest in each individual of the school has created countless friends for him. His willingness to aid us in bettering ourselves has made us eager to prove our mettle, and his ability to guide us during this, the most turbulent part of our lives, has stamped him as an intrepid leader, and has forever endeared him to us. Through Mr. Parker, we have reason to remember the Elmira Free Academy, and to regard it as one of the most joy- ous and significant stages of our lives.

ARTHUR BURT Dear Clfzssmfltesi As President of the Class of IQ36, I have been accorded the privilege of writing in your behalf a message of farewell to our school, to each member of the faculty, and to the student body. Commencement draws near. It is a serious and memorable occasion for each of us. It rings down the curtain upon the most carefree, the most enjoyable, and the longest-tofbe-remembered chapter of our lives. The recollections of high school days will always be cherished, and it is with a touch of regret that we, the class of 1936, leave the Academy. The Academy guided, directed, and developed us these last four years. To her, we have incurred a life-long debt. Qpportunities have been accorded each of us. No one has been denied an equal opportunity to excel. The impressions made, the lessons learned, and the friendships gained here, will ever be a part of us. Yet, we must go on, for we must "see life through and see it whole." Though we have Finished our academic studies, we realize education never ends. In nartinfr then ma f we fro on with liffhr hearts and o wen minds to face our urob- l rv ' 5 rv z-' l l lems, may we continue so that our lives, through their achievements, may ever reHect honor upon, and express gratitude and appreciation for our school, Elmira Free Academv. Sincerely yours, XVALTER L. ZIXIDAHL 191- 1 nf CLASS HISTORY WE, THE CLASS OF 1936, have nearly completed four successful and eventful years at the Elmira Free Academy. When we, inexperienced and queer freshmen, gazed with awe upon the big knowing seniors, we little realized that we, too, given time, might possess that same poise and self-assurance. Although we were practically without organized leadership during our first year, we were capably represented the next by the following officers: Iohn Hirst, president, Katherine Kinsman, vice-president, Phyllis Cole, secretaryg William Love, treasurer. In the third stage of our high school career, we again chose superior leaders: Daniel Coleman, president, assisted by Eleanor Chapel, Iessie hdould, and Emory Stoddard. Soon after, the president appointed William MacNamare to head the committee for the careful selection of the pattern of our jewelry, which would distinguish us as the Class of 1936. That year, for the Hrst time, the Iuniors agreed to hold their prom with the Seniors. This arrangement was so successful that it was decided to repeat it the following year. Iunior Day, the most important day of the year to us, found both boys and girls gaily decorated with flattering red and white ribbons. Returning in September, ready to cope with our Hnal and most difficult problems, we elected Walter Zimdahl, president, Iessie Motild, vice-president, Crooks, secretary, Arthur Burt, treasurer, to guide us along untried paths. They worked hard and so cooperated as to make our social activities outstanding. In early May, the animal Senior play, "Three the inspiring direction of Mr. Colgan. Each member his part in making it a success. Today, we are eagerly anticipating "the are already busily making plans, the Senior school career, and, the Senior reception. Then the goal for which we have striven so faithfully since What the future holds in store for us is sure to do his best. We should, E. F. A. has laid a good -po f wxptff' lr. ' 4 1 STEPHEN E.

II. A. Besides the animal Spring Carnival with the crowning of the Nlay Queen and her attendants, the Council sponsored a l-lallowe'en Carnival ruled by a witch, wizard and spoolcs. It arranged for the hrst after-school dance in two vears and followed it hy several other informal dances in the gvinnasium during the vear. A unique situation arose when Vivian Bruce resigned the presidency in Ianuary 1936, and Anne Hardv, vice-president, succeeded him. Thus she became the first girl in the history of the Academy ex er to l1old the responsible position of president of the Student Council. 531 - Seated: Florence Palizay, Phyllis Cole, .S'fr111fling.'

'TCJKSCJANIIIIJIRQYF ARTHUR HIRST, coach of the Blue and Xvhite athletic teams, is a graduate of Springfield College, where he distinguished himself as an ace backfield man on the football team, as number one pitcher on the baseball nine, as intercollegiate wrestling king, and proved himself a sterling hockey player. lVIr. Hirst served as assistant athletic director of Syracuse University immediately after being graduated from college. ln 1918 "Art, was in the army. A few days after the Armistice was signed he accepted an offer to coach the football team of our most deadly rival, Binghamton. The new official started off i11 the proper manner, his first team winning the Southern New York State championship and losing the State championship only by a touchdown. However, the next year the Hirst-coached Bingo team did win the State championship. Of course, both years the teams beat Elmira. Wliile refereeing a basketball game here in Elmira, he was offered the position of coach of the high school team. After a struggle, he was lured from Bingo. The first team Mr. Hirst coached started off with all guns Hring, winning the first three games but hitting a snag at Bingo in the form of a 70-o setback. It was a terrihc drubbing but the boys recovered in time to finish the season with only one more loss. 1922 brought to Elmira its first championship. Nlr. Hirst's championship habit clung to him. However we had to share the honors with Oneida, with whom we played a 3-3 tie game. Six years passed before lvlr, Hirst was able to assemble another championship outfit. ln 1928 the Hirstmen won seven games and tied one, and were considered by newspaper- men as the best team in the state. Again in iozo, the Hirstmen came within one game of being undefeated, this game being disputed. The greatest team ever coached by hir. Hirst was the 1935 squad. This was the first undefeated, untied football team that Elmira has had. Not only did they win every league team but also defeated Nliami, Florida, in a post season game. What a feather in our coach's capl Mr. Hirst's teams have always bee11 famous, win or lose, for their fine sportsmanship. Hatls off to Coach Arthur Hirst, one of the fairest, cleverest and best liked gentlemen that can be found. 731- .

Champions of the Southern Tier and winners of a game in Eloridal This was the result of the Elmira High Schools football campaign for 1935. Eight games were played with the Blue and White winning all of them for a record season. The most outstanding feature of the '35 football season was the team's post-season trip to Elorida and a victory of I3-O over Miami High on Christmas Day. Walter Zim- dahl, line smasher superb, registered the two touchdowns which won this Cocoanut Bowl game. The victorious team returned home and was feted at dinners and banquets through- out the city. At the Community Banquet given for the team, Coach Hirst and his unde- feated Elmira High Schools football squad received Elmira's official tribute. About 350 persons unanimously seconded the praise and appreciation expressed to the boys and Coach Hirst by Iudge Thomas E. Eennell and Frank E. Tripp. Clinton Williams who was unable to make the Southern trip, was presented the ball used in the Miami game. A quad of seventy-five candidates, nine of them veterans, reported at Athletic Field on September third, for the initial grid practice. As the date for the opening clash ap- proached, Coach Hirst had developed a light, but speedy combination which was to rise to magnificent heights and display its true greatness. Saturday, October fifth, saw the first of the eight victories for the Blue and White. Corning was conquered, when our team registered two touchdowns making the first score I3-O. " The next Saturday also resulted in a victory for E. H. S. Auburn saw a lone touch- down, six points, while the Elmira tally totalled thirty-seven. Another Saturday saw the team continue its march to glory by vanquishing East- wood twenty-six to six. Now hopes began to rise for a championship team, but there were still such formidable foes as Bingo, U.-E., and Ithaca. On Saturday, October 25th, one of the largest groups of Elmira football fans ever to visit Hodskins Flats, saw the undefeated Elmira warriors run roughshod over Bingo, their age-old rival, with the final score E. H. S. 19, Bingo o. The following Saturday the Blue and White journeyed to U.-E. to take on the Orange and Black. This was one of the most exciting games of the entire season. The score was a tie six and six, when in the last three minutes of play, Elmira scored a spectacu- lar touchdown. This brought us six more points and won for us a "heart-breakerl' game. A game Cortland team was defeated Nov. 15, 52-O. The Reserves were put in and aided a lot in running up the score. This made the sixth consecutive victory. One more team to conquer and we had a championship teaml The final Southern Tier victory came the following Saturday, Nov. 28, when the team conquered Ithaca I4-O. Now a championship team for the first time in many yearsl At a banquet given for this championship team by the Neighborhood House Asso- ciation, all the Varsity and several reserves received their coveted block UE" for faithful service. A few days after the banquet, the Blue and VVhite received their invitation to play Miami High at Nliami on Christmas Day. This invitation was brought about by the ceaseless eHort of Ted Huntley and many others. Bob Hall, veteran guard of the E. H. S. eleven was elected honorary captain of the 1935 team by his team mates while en route to Florida. The Student Council presented the Elmira Free Academy with a picture of the 1935 championship eleven which will hang on the Academy Wall as a reminder of all that the 1935 all-star men accomplished. 751- First raw: Punzo, Miller, l.eVallcy, Skelly, Coppini, Gillette Stroud Vow: lilrewer, Messing, Shaft, O'Neill, B1'OOl-illlilll, Sleeper, Vunlc, Coacli Hirst VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAM Captain .

Moreover, Coach Hirst, because of the Miami football trip, was unable to start practice of the team until a week before the season opened. Union-Endicott came, saw, and conquered the E. H. S. quint, but the closeness of the score led the loyal supporters to believe we had a good team. The score was U.-E. 20, Elmira 19. This was the first time a U.-E. team had ever won on an Elmira court. Next the Hirstmen played Iohnson City and received a more convincing setback to the tune of I. C. 45, Elmira 34. Ithaca was the third team to defeat the Blue and Wliite. Despite the fact that lthaca's team was without the aid of the "Great hlacalil'-who has been graduated, nevertheless they managed to Win 23-13. Our ancient foe, Bingo, revenged her last yearls defeat with a 37-21 win. Bingo had a fast, snappy, outfit which was in the process of developing into a championship combination. To wind up the first round Cortland took her share of the wins of the E. H. S. team. The final score was Cortland 39, Elmira 31. ln a non-league game, Corning Free Academy defeated the Hirstmen for the first time in the history of the two schools' basketball competition. The Corning team iolled up the biggest score, 52 points to our 29. The second half of the season was more successful, but left very much to be desired. The team won two games, one from lthaca and one from Cortland. However, Bingo com leted her reven e b winnin for the second time. P g Y g U. E. and Iohnson City also defeated Elmira in the second half. All of the fellows played Well, but the team lacked cooperation. Mr. Hirst was forced to change the lineup continually but never seemed to find the combination that would click and stay clicking. The brifrhtest s ot in the season was the work of Carolus Skellv, who was the third in P J highest scorer in the league. The Iunior Varsity showed signs of providing a fine team for the high school next season. Thev won all but two games. 771- W! FEATURES 'o 8+why4 94-CL-S. LH un, WMM? ffM74gD, QMMMQL Qhqu MLWJJ! Sept.

If you were to erect this building on a remote mountain top, equip it and man it -it would not be a bank, no matter how perfectly organized. The essential element of human contact and service would be lacking. Only when an institution plays an active, considerate part in the life of the community -understanding its people and their financial needs, and giving them its best in banking services-is it worthy of the name BANK.
