To the Seniors of 1940: For one hundred years this school has been recognized as an institution of learning by The Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York. During that time, thousands of boys and girls have received education and training within its walls. Men and women who have become leaders in all walks of life, both in Elmira and beyond its borders, spent their youthful years here. You, who are about to graduate, will soon join this great group of able people. Much money, time, and effort have been expended upon you in order to prepare you for citizenship in a democracy. It is the hope of this com- munity and of those who have been your teachers during the past four years, that you will prove worthy of the great tradition that is yours. May your lives be useful and honest. May you fight for the things worth fighting for. May you show unlimited capacity to carry on our American way of life, based on a willingness to work, a tolerance of others, a readiness to sacrifice for the sake of ideals, and a conviction of the high destiny of man. May you in your turn dedicate to this task your lives, your fortunes, and your sacred honor. Our best wishes go with you for to you and to your fellow students throughout this broad land of ours, is entrusted the future of America. 043. IJIIIHN X. VXIIN XXI.

In addition to celebrating the centennial anniversary of its beginnings. we have this year seen not only' a big growth in the school population but an extensive broadening of the educational facilities that are being offered to the boys and girls of Elmira today. It is htting that at a time like this. we review the past and do honor to the men and women who have made our present achievements possible. Secondary' education by which. in its broadest sense. we mean the education of boys and girls between the elementary and the college levels. had its beginnings more than three hundred years ago when our Puritan forefathers founded the Boston l.atin Grammar School in l635. Despite the fact that the general principle of univer- 'myggg 5, 4jqyNyl.jRgl.j sal education was early recognized as essential for the perpetuation of democratic institutions. it was many' years before this idea was actually' put into effectual practice. The Latin schools of colonial days were intended only for the few who possessed the leisure. the D, wealth. and the intellectual ability' to profit from the curriculum offered. With the growth of the colonies in commerce. industry' and social and political institutions. the demand for a more extensive type of education became evident. Young men and women asked for an education more closely related to the everyday problems which they were called upon to meet. ln l75l. Benjamin Franklin in Philadel- phia gave impetus to this new trend and to the revolt against the older traditional type of education by establishing the academy' in which English. geography. arithmetic and other 'fpractical sub- jects" became the core of the curriculum. Between l780 and 1850. hundreds of academies were established throughout New England and the Atlantic states. In New York State. more than three hundred academies were opened during this period. It will be seen. then. from this brief summary' that the Elmira academy was established rela- ISAAC M. WEI.I.ING'l'0N tively late among the academies in New York States. y Q In the year 1830, when the First Presbyterian Church at the corner of Church and Baldwin Streets decided to erect a new edifice. the old building was moved to the east side of Baldwin just south of the present Methodist Episcopal Church. lt became the first home of the Elmira Academy. During the next few years instruction was given first in this building and later in the basement of the Congre- gational Church that stood on the location of the present Park Church. This school was a private school attended by pupils whose parents could afford to pay' the necessary' tuition. Many of the early leaders of Elmira received their secondary' education there. The establishment of this private academy' came at a time when the demand for universal and for secondary' education was growing in strength. Its history as a private institution therefore. is relatively . high schools in the Union Free School Bill in 1853. So it was that on y shortlived. In 1840. the people of New York State voted for free N popular education and legalized the formation of tax supported ppm,-ESSOR S'I'I,:l,:lAl,: May 24. 1859 the Elmira Academy ceased to be a private school and at 5 ., ,F rf . 1 Y- -sassy ' ' ,aaw:':-1s':w- - - sw-1,v,,, Y ,D-, - , by vote of the people of Elmira and with the approval of the Regents of the University of the State of New York, became the Elmira Free Academy. Although the trustees of the old academy had purchased prop- erty on the present site at Clinton and Lake Streets and this property was taken over by the new trustees. it was not until the close of 1861 that the first Elmira Free Academy building was formally accepted by the Board of Education. The first location of the new Free Academy was in the factory of J. M. Robinson at the southeast corner of Church and William Streets. Since the spring of 1862 however, the Elmira Free Academy has been located on its present site. This first structure was a three story brick building facing Clinton Street. The room used for study purposes was known in those days as the chapel and could accomodate between 150 and 200 pupils. Sliding doors divided this room in two, one side being given over to the boys and the other to the girls. The seats were so arranged that when the sliding doors were opened, the boys and l JAMES R. MONKS girls faced each other. HERBERT M. LOVELL Growth in student population necessitated increased accomoda- tions. ln 1891, the academy building was torn down to make room for a new structure. During that year, school was held in the old Number Six building on Lake Street just south of the D. L. 81 W. tracks. The new building occupied a much larger area than the first but was only two stories high instead of three. Consequently, the new building was not much larger than the old one and in a few years the school had again outgrown the building. ln 1913, the third structure on this site was built. That is the academy which we are using today. During 1939, extensive additions were built to the wings of the building and the Annex to the north was constructed. When the Elmira Free Academy opened its doors in 1859, it had but two teachers, Mr. Moses Sumner Converse the principal and Miss Helen M. Phillips the preceptress. Both teachers had been connected with the old academy while it was a private tuition paying school. Principal Converse retired at the end of the first year. He was suc- ceeded by Professor Isaac Mortimer Wellington of Fryeburg. Maine who was principal from 1860 to 1865. It was during his administra- tion that the first Free Academy building was built and the first class graduated in 1862. The members of this first graduating class were James li. Monks who later became the principal of the Academy and Miss J. Amelia Munson who also became a member of the faculty. So popular had Principal Wellington been that the new prin- cipal. Mr. G. W. Timlow, was resented and after a few months re- signed to make way for Principal Joel Dorman Steele. Mr. Steele was principal from 1866 to 1872. He ruled the school at first with an iron hand, gradually relaxing the policy of extreme severity. lt was under his administration that the first and second honor rolls were first established. the students on these lists being known as the "first head scholars" and the "second head scholars." Mr. Steele was famous throughout the United States for the text books which he wrote. They were known as fourteen weeks courses in Chemistry, Physics, Geology, and other sciences. He also wrote a text book in United history. Because of his growing fame as an author, relinquished his duties in January 1872 and was CIIARLI-IS N. EVANS .1-.-.--.1-wgqrm 5-Taxa Q succeeded by Principal James R. Monks. It was during his adminis- l tration that the course of study was changed from a three to a four year course for all students. Previous to that time, the college pre- paratory course had been four years and the general course three years in length. Principal Monks was succeeded by Herbert M. Lovell who ad- ministered the school from 1887 to 1895. It was during his adminis- tration that the second structure on the school site was built. During his time the Regents standard for graduation was adopted, football was introduced as an extracurricular activity, and only college graduates were permitted to teach in the academy. From 1895 to 1900, Mr. Charles VV. Evans was principal. It was under his leader- ship, that the school paper, the Vindex, was launched. During his , regime the school population more than doubled and the school l was registered by the Regents as a high school U8981. Mr. Howard HOWARD CONANT Conant, who was principal from 1900 to 1906, did mtlch to develop school Splfll and to unify the student body around the growing traditions of the school. A symhol of this unity was indicated when in 1903. the Alma Mater was com- posed by Miss Florence Volbrecht flater Mrs. Frank J. Allen of Sharon, Pennsylvaniai. Mr. Francis F. Parker became principal in 1906 and for thirty years guided the destinies of the school. During his administration the present building was built and the greatest increase in student population occurred. The change in the character of the student body from a selective to an all-inclusive group called for an expanded curriculum. During the past year, Industrial and Vocational Arts courses have been opened, the building facilities expanded and the faculty enlarged. On April first, nineteen hun- dred forty, the one hundredth anniversary of the Incorporation of the Academy was appropriately celebrated in the newly decorated auditorium.

The surroundings were entirely new to us, but it was not long before we found the echoes familiar. Shortly we elected Haines Gridley president, Sally Hoffman vice-president, Beth Burke secretary, and Morris Shepard treasurer of our class. ln the period of a year we crawled the usual distance to become sophomores. and now, after wondering about the various activities, we were eligible to find out. Thus the organizations were crowded by "young bloodsf' Paul McConnell, Beth Burke, Eleanor McCarthy and Sheldon Lewis were elected to head our class as presi- dent, vice president, secretary and treasurer respectively. The year went by swiftly and it was not until April that we held our first social activity. Having a spirited class, approximately fifty persons attended. This was our first depression. Finally, we reached the mark which privileged us to be called uupperclassmenf' Now we could attend some of those "good" assemblies-the great desire of our younger days. We again chose Paul McConnell to head our class, with Mary Ruth Gill as vice president, Eleanor McCarthy, secretary, and Henderson Riggs, treasurer. Henry Rathbun and Sally Hoffman were appointed co-chairmen of "Junior Day," and through the combined efforts of the chairmen and the committees a successful day was held. Alas and alackl The day arrived when we felt self assured to push open those same doors which awed us in our Freshman days. After three years of sojourning here, we were fully acquainted with the routine of 'fthe first day," and thus we were prepared to settle ourselves at once. But we were fooled. During the summer, old E. F. A. had been changed, and those rooms which had never been numbered higher than forty-two were now numbered up to three hundred and twenty. It was very con- fusing. Two new gymnasiums, the pride and joy of the school, had been added. Our old gym was used as a cafeteria. The "good old days" of singles were no more. Although it took quite a while to become accustomed to the new routine, the seniors had to go on and plan their last, and perhaps best year. Joseph Schwenkler, Mary Lou Denton, Eleanor McCarthy and Emil Vogel were chosen as class officers. Judy Ott was appointed chairman for the annual senior musical--the show for which every senior sold all his tickets fmummi, and, believe it or not, it came through with flying colors, both financially and otherwise. Thanks to those new gymnasiums, we were able to hold our senior dance, the first of its kind ever to be held within these walls. Next on our schedule was the annual play in which "Cappy" Gill and "Duff" Rathbun brought down the house. On May 22 the traditional "Senior Day" was held. Four years ago we dreamt of this day when we could boast our position, and now that it had come, it stunned us to realize that in a few weeks we would be leaving. In the following week, we held our annual banquet and dance, thus ending the activities of our class. For the four years that we have been here, we have gained much knowledge, not only from books, but from experience as well. Our stay here will soon end. and it will all be a pleasant memory, never to be forgotten. It is with deepest regret that we say "farewell" to the school that is "dear to us always." znamggzw HL- ,... . .T P l L Y A A 1 U M tv'-"ff f t V .. . 1 i ' ' ,T ' .N W as V . ,a.'-,,,- President .

VOGEI, D1-:AR CLASSMATES: In a few short weeks, we will leave forever the motherly care of E. F. A. and set forth upon the much traveled road of life. Although many have proceeded us. the number who have successfully traversed it is relatively small because of its many cross road and ruts. However, during our brief stay here, we have been splendidly prepared for this hazardous trip through the sympathetic assistance and cooperation given to us by our principal, our advisors, and the faculty. We shall all remember the good times and worthy friends we have found here. The numerous social activities have offered all of us pleasure to blend in with the work of learning. In behalf of the class of '40, I wish to extend our thanks to Dr. Helmkamp for his generous assistance and advice in all matters, and also to our faithful advisors and faculty who have made our High School days a rememberance to treasure always.

Good luck! Seniors. 61444 Wd! To WHOM THESE LETTERS MAY COME, GEEETING: The class of 1940 of the Elmira Free Academy, of the town of Elmira, Chemung County, New York State, United States of America, being of sound mind but of weakened constitution, having completed a course of heart-breaking monstrosities, do hereby make this, our first, last and only will and testament, wherein we exhibit the wisdom and understanding, however small, acquired from the aprementioned course. First-We bequeath to all the remaining students: 1. Our good wishes for any of you who can discover a way to evade the new gym regulations. 2. One locker per head. 3. A longer noon hour to eliminate the now-prevalent boarding house tactics. 4. Several days of foul weather so that you may have your taste of single sessions. 5.

Miss liX'I'lII.l'IlCN hllI.I.l'Itt After two years of activity in the lli-Y society. we were fully aware of the good times and the good work of the clulvs. Therefore. it is not surprising that we were anxious to hegin our third and last year as mcmhers of this great society. Under the guidance of Miss Kathleen Miller we have enjoyed an active and successful year. Vive have profited hy frequent supper meetings at which guest speakers talked to us ahout world affairs. our future. and matters of personal interest to a high school girl. ln the first term. we held a joint meeting with the girls' clnh of the Southside High School. and we were also entertained at the Y. M. ti. A. hy the hoys' clnh of the lflmira l"ree .-Xcademy. In the second term. we entertained the hoys at our and had joint meetings with the Junior and Sophomore Hi-Y's of the Academy. Our cluh sponsored a hooth at the annual fall carnival. which was a financial success. We elected Mary Helen Sayles as a delegate to the ltochesler conference. This conference was partially reproduced in an "l'icho Conference" held in Elmira. We participated in this conference hy furnishing the programs. In all. the cluh has heen very active. not only this year. hut also in former years. It is with regret that we will no longer he ahle to have our own little group. which has done so much to cement the friendship of all its girls. t 1 0 V ,. -. :f . . :is I 2 t . ' 4.N'v -."

By winning six straight games the Blue and White captured the Southern Tier conference football title, and established themselves as one of the strongest teams in the state. About seventy-five candidates answered the first call for practice, from which Coach Hirst sought men to work with the four holdovers from the 1938 team. After three weeks of intensive practice, he built a fast. deceptive, and well balanced team which boasted a powerful line and a shifty backfield. The Blue and W'hite opened the season on October 7 against their traditional first game rival, Syracuse Eastwood. The visitors showed a lot of spirit, but were over powered 26-6 by the locals. The following Saturday Elmira journeyed to Auburn, where they triumphed over the hard fighting Red warriors 7-0. After being outplayed for three quarters After a weeks rest, the Elmirans returned to action on October 28, against Syracuse Vocational. The Blue and White went on a scoring rampage against their lighter rivals, and overpowered the invaders 44-0. On Armistice Day the Blue and White invaded Union-Endicott in quest of their fourth straight victory. The game was witnessed by'a large holiday crowd of 8,000 persons, among whom were many local rooters."'Displ'aying a powerful running and passing attack, EHS defeated the Shoetowners. 18-7. This victory set the stage for the coming Elmira-Ithaca championship battle. With bright prospects for an undefeated season. Elmira took the field against Christian Brothers Academy November 18 and proceded to run roughshod over the Syracuse City champions to score another victory, 39-0. The most important game of the season was when Elmira played host to Ithaca High in a game which would decide the conference championship. Although Quarter back Leon Ropelewski was injured early in the game, Elmira went on to reglster a 7-0 victory over the Little Red. The lone score was made when f'Mickey" McConnell dashed 35 yards for a touchdown. With this game another successful season came to a close, and when the All Conference team was chosen uMickey', McConnell, star fullback, and Leo Micheals veteran guard, were on the squad. A new addition to the coaching staff was acquired when Bill Wipfler became connected with the school system. Bill handled the Jay-Vee squad very capably and won high praise from Coach Hirst for his work. Benny Botnick and 'gNap" Blanchette did noteworthy jobs in assisting Coach Hirst and should be commended for their work. Y 7 the Hirstmen launched an aerial attack in the last quarter to emerge victorious. At a dinner held in the Parker Field clubhouse, the following men were awarded letters: William Sullivan, Leo Micheals, Carman Ramich, Raymond Manning, Harry Furman Jr., Harrison Smith, Peter Morrow, Roger Pilla, Andrew Lewish, Paul Mc- Connell, Leon Ropelewski. Robert Losinger, Percy Brown, Robert Hirst, William -Schwenke, Sheldon Lewis, Nicholas Petrusiw, William Cieri, Francis Bernas, Booth Seymour, Don Biiggs, Harold Lynch, Francis Baker, John Traum, William Lewis, Roy Snyder, Daniel Lewish, Dominic Rossi, Ned Hoffman, and Don Robertson. manager. The prospects for next year look bright with twenty lettermen returning. In behalf of the Torch and the student body we wish Coach Hirst and his capable coaching staff many more successful seasons such as this past one. f. Q- 'nn-r--4----- - . Baaketdall lfarly last lleeemlmer. when the hasltethall season was in its infant stage. the lflmira High Sehool squad had high hopes of eapturing the Southern Tier liasl-:ethall tfonferenee title for the seeond straight year. and there were many good reasons for this air of optimism. l"our regulars of the IOISI-I-139 team were returning. and a numher of eapahle reserves were on hand to fill in the other gap. llut then disaster struek. l.eon llopelewski. leading seorer of the team for three seasons. was foreed to leave the team for the season after sustaining an injury in the Ithaea foothall game. The team opened the eurrent season lleeemher l2 when they traveled to llingham- ton North and downed the weak Purple outht hy a ll-22 margin. The lor als led all the way and were never in danger of heing defeated. lnspired hy their splendid opening performanee. the Hirstmen traveled to lfndieott the following Tuesday. lleeemher l5. to meet the Union-lfndieott houneers. llere they eneountered unexpeeted opposition and went down to defeat at the hands of a mueh faster outht. 3-1--28. It was in this game that the injury "jinx" again hit the ranks of the lllue and White. "Miekey" ltflelionnell. veteran forward. slipped on the eourt and injured his foot. The injury forced him to the sidelines for the remainder of the year. At this point. Coach Hirst. drafted young lfrank Zywieki from the ,lay- Yee squad and used him as an alternate forward. The squad then had a three week respite during the Chirstmas holidays. They resumed aetivities. however. on January 5 when they entertained the Cortland team on the new :Xeademy eourt. This was the first game played on that hardwood. and a eapaeity erowd turned out for the fray. The eontest was turned into a rout. and the reserves played the entire seeond half.

The game was one of the most exciting ever played in this city, and when the final whistle had been blown, the Bingo boys were ahead by a one point margin. The contest was close throughout, and the winning basket was thrown in the last minute to give the visitors 32-31 margin. The habitual jinx again struck the local squad in this game when Vin Heher fell under the basket and injured his knee. The following week the Hirstmen played hosts to the Johnson City boys and chalked up an easy 4-3-34 victory to put them in third place in the league standings. The next tilt was with the Little Bed of Ithaca in a game played at the College City. The locals again emerged victors after coming from behind and winning the game 32-30 on a last minute basket by Emil Vogel. This win advanced the Elmirans to within one game of first place. The second round of play was begun February 2 when the Binghamton North squad traveled here for a return game. The Light Blue chalked up their fifth victory of the season by turning back the stubborn Binghamton boys 36-34 in a game that took two overtime periods to decide the outcome. The victory was obtained when center Pete Morrow dropped the ball through the hoop and then collapsed on the floor as a result of a back injury. Again the team suffered from injuries when Vin Heher aggravated his knee injury and was forced to retire for the season. The following week the Union Endicott contingent invaded our fair city to engage the Blue in a contest that would decide the title aspirations for the EHS. Outplayed all the way, the Hirstmen went down to a 4-3-31 defeat and saw their last hopes of the championship receive a jolting. The next contest saw the Blue and W'hite journey to Cortland and administer a 37-31 defeat to the hapless last placers. The following encounter for the Elmira team was a game with Binghamton Central played on the latter's court. Paced by Billy Gabor, league leading scorer, the Central City outfit trimmed the locals 51-42 to practically clinch the league title. The home team piled up a huge lead in the first half which was too big for Elmira to overcome despite a brilliant rally in the final minutes of the game. 3 Continuing their schedule, the Elmira boys traveled down to Johnson City, where they vanquished the Shoetowners by a 22-18 margin. This game was featured by an exhibition of "stalling" on the part of the Johnson City boys. Unable to penetrate the locals defense, they resorted to playing catch with the ball and bored both the spectators and the Elmirans. The last game of the season was the liveliest. The Ithaca squad came to Elmira, out to avenge the close defeat they suffered in the first round and the result was a small riot in which both fans and spectators participated. After the scene was cleared and the game resumed the Redmen played steady ball and defeated the Blue by a 42-35 score. Center Pete Morrow and Guard Bob Losinger were named on the All-Conference and Guard J ack Biggs was given honorable mention. Pete Morrow was also the leading scorer of the team and third highest in the league. The team finished with a record of 7 wins and 5 defeats in league play and also defeated Corning Northside in two non-league frays. The Torch extends its congratulations to the members of this years squad who performed so nobly, and also to the members of the ,lay-Vee team whose work was highly satisfactory. Here's wishes for many more successful years on the basketball court. Baakafdall f' J' 1 it iz. . 5 4 - 54 't ,,i 'Tl Sf. ? , . ,J .g!' Q '14 E j RE N ,Nw ,ur . .

With the building of the new gym a renewed interest was created among the students. Recognizing this fact, Bill Wipfier, new Physical Director, organized an lnterhome- room Basketball League. The idea in mind was that in this way more students would be able to participate. The league was formed, and it was found that 120 boys took part in the elimination tournament. Games were played three days a week after school. and the interest created was evidenced by the large crowds that attended these games. There were 21 teams entered in the tourney with the Freshmen having 8 entries, the Sophomores 4-, Juniors 4- and the Seniors 5. The tournament was divided into two divisions. an underclassmen and an upper- classmen. The two winners played off for the championship. Boom 111. one of the best Freshmen teams in the history of the school, copped the nnderclass title, while Room 216 was the winner in the upper bracket. Room 312, the favorite of the tourney, and 216 were the two upper bracket finalists. In a very close and exciting game the Juniors beat their rivals 22-21 to enter the playoffs. In the lower section it was 111 vs. 211. This was another close game and was won by the Freshmen 22-20. In the playoff game the Juniors showed their superiority by trouncing their opponents 23-9 to win the school title. The winning team then challenged the faculty quintet to a game and lost a close game by a 26-25 margin. DThe members of the champs were Biddle, Stamp, Cesare, Dalton. Buono. Sabatini, and Seymour. Members of the runnerup Freshmen team were Ropelewski. McMahon, Semski, Morrell, Michalko and Terpolili. The tournament was begun February 2 an ran until March 18. The plans and running of the affair were in charge of John Young, who was named to this position by Mr. Wipfler. At the end of the tournament Craig Biddle was crowned the leading scorer after scoring 18 field goals and 4 fouls for a total of 40 points. The high scorers were: Player Team F. G. Fouls Pts. Biddle 21.6 18 4 40 Michalko 211 17 5 39 DeV0re 312 16 1 33 Dalton 216 1 1 2 24 Semski 111 1 1 2 24- Buono 216 10 3 23 Michalko 111 11 0 22 Ropelewski 111 8 5 21 Bellamy 312 10 0 20 At the completion of the tournament Mr. Vlfipfler called a meeting of all the referees and those who took part in running the contests to pick ten men from each class to represent their class in an Interclass Tournament. Those present were Dr. Helmkamp, Mr. Hirst, Mr. Wipfler, John Young, Intramural Director, James O'Hara, Sports Editor of the Vindex, and referees Bob Hirst, Frank Zywicki, John Casey and Emil Vogel. These men decided that their choice was to be based on certain qualifica- tions. The following men were then picked: Freshmen: Glenn Losinger, Joe McMahon, Walter Michalko, Eugene Ropelewski. Ed Semski, Abe Parker, Chester Malanoski, Wade Walker, Howard Coleman and Joe Brown. Sophomores: Bernard Trifoso, Fred Brinthaupt, Winston Coleman, John Mich- alko, Leonard Vilojnarek, John Walsh, Robert Durfey, Victor Hunt, Richard Babcock. Herbert Bauer. Juniors: Craig Biddle, Martin Stamp, Bill Young, Fred Harter, Booth Seymour. Robert Dalton, Ben Cesare, John Fogarty, Dave Buono, Nicholas Sabatini. Seniors: Banks Decker, Leon Stemmerman, Kenneth DeVore, Calvin Whitman, Henry Winkel, Leo Ptaszek, Joe Dobranski, Mason Wilkinson, Steve Kasmirski, and Jack Bauer. These boys later participated in the interclass tourney. Many other events took place this year which shows the sudden renewed interest in extra curricular sports. A ping pong tournament was held, an Interclass softball league was established, and a tennis tournament was run off. This is the first time in three years that these contests have been held and attracted any student attention. The Torch extends to Mr. Hirst and Mr. Wipfler its congratulations for the fine way in which they have created an interest in these sports and the splendid job they did in running these contests. 22, Mfg 2,40 - M M M.
