XVICKERY SENIOR OFFICERS Dear Fellow-Classmates: As the time approaches for the class of '36 to leave our Alma Mater, it is with deep regret that I write these words of farewell. Throughout our high school years we have played and worked together, and our reward is graduation, a goal well worth the effort we have put forth. The spirit in which you have cooperated with me has made this the happiest year of my school lifeg and the interest and enthusiasm you have shown in our class endeavors has been very encouraing to me. I wish you each a happy and prosperous future, and may we always look back on our last school year at the Owego Free Academy as the starting point to success and usefulness. Sincere wishes and the best of luck, PIIILLIP THOMAS Prefnlezzt of the Cftzrr of '36 SENIOR OFFICERS: Hagan, MCCHTIZIII, Tbomar, Mead, Kwiufleouurki, Ford ll I O R S , i ag.- ,min WWW S E NORA ALLEN sis Eoerylfoelvfrfrieml, nobo.cly r foe, The kim! of girl you'1l like to know.

We, the Seniors, are attempting to prepare the lower classes for the serious crises which are certain to come after this intellectual class has departed from the Owego Free Academy to attain success in new worlds. The four short years we have spent in the O. F. A. have left us with a deep and genuine understanding of life as it is, they have prepared us for the difficulties of life so that we may overcome them and become stronger in doing so, and they have instilled in our hearts and minds those virtues and qualities which make for good character. The class of 33 thought it wonderful that they should have the privilege of initiating such a fine group of freshmen as they received. We are certain that those seniors could fine no fault with the way their freshmen, the present seniors, underwent initiation. After we were initiated we began the career which has spread our fame as a remarkable class. Our first two years were spent mostly in trying for the honor rolls, anticipating the honor of being elected a member of Omega Phi Alpha, which is now blessed with an extraordinary large number of the class. The first large social event that attracted attention to the class of 36 was the junior Hop. Under the excellent direction of the chairman David Beete, with the assistance of Natalie Patton, Phillip Thomas, and the class president, Nicholas Pedro, this dance was made a success and established the reputation of the class in the field of social activities. However, this event fades into insignificance when compared with our Junior Prom, which, by the way, was one of the two that has ever been financially successful. But that is accounted for when we acknowledge that this class has been a superior one during its four years. Of course, the capable and experienced chairman, David Beere, assisted by a committee consisting of Roger Searles, Halsey Schmidt, and Hugh Hogan, was largely responsible for this social triumph. It was in our Junior year that we became famous in the sports world, too, for several of our boys received varsity awards for participation in basketball and football. Among these were Halsey Schmidt and Johnny Doyle, who were outstanding in basketball, Johnny being one of the three high scorers in the league. Molly Welch and Hugh Hogan received letters for football. Each one had worked hard for his letter and surely deserved it. The Class of 36 also received the Intramural Basketball Pennant in their Junior year. The team established a wonderful record of seven victories and only one defeat. E And now, after three hard years of study and preparation we have come to what is surely our most successful year in the O. F. A. The officers we have chosen are efficient and experienced, and worthy of much responsibility. We elected Phillip Thomas, President, Marion McCarthy, Vice-President, and Hugh Hogan, Secretary, Louise Ford, Treasurer. ' We started the year off with a bang in the form of freshman initiation. It is certain that those lowly freshmen will remember us for years to come. We hope, also, that we have set up an example that they will look up to and try to follow Conly try, mind you, for we have set an example we modestly think no class will ever excelb. Soon after freshman initiation we made arrangements for a dance, The Football Hop, which was held after the Waverly-Owego football game. Of course, it was not surprising that this was a success financially as well as socially. Muriel Jacobs headed the enterprising committee in charge of this affair. A Valentine Party, directed by our President, Phillip Thomas, was held on February 15, and was instrumental both in swelling our treasury and our fame. As this is being written, there still is another great activity, the Senior Play, in store for the Class of 36. It is needless to tell our admiring public that this year's Senior Play will be incomparable. We have selected an excellent play, Big Hearted Herbert, which we will produce with our usual zeal and enthusiasm. And then, Seniors, terminating our short career in high school is Commencement-for some of us the goal, for others only the beginning. 7-4 OTHER CLASSES J U N I O R S h AN,-I . . .X . ' .

Adviferr In spite of the wind and snow blowing at a furious rate outside, I sit comfortably in a deep chair before the warm fire, with its leaping flames reflecting in the crystal at my side. As I gaze into my crystal I can clearly see a glorious past and a brilliant future in store for the Juniors of 36. Hear ye, juniors! Your class seer will now retell your past and foretell your future. In your freshman year you came through the ever dreaded freshman initiation with Hying colors. Your reputation as good sports was then established. That year several of your number gained renown in basketball and football. Among these I see most clearly that sturdy half back, Dick Corn- well, energetic Ed Ferguson, and cheerful Smiles Morse. The scenes in the crystal change, and I see you now in your sophomore year. I can clearly see that you have gained more prominence in the O. F. A. through your activities. Dick Cornwell, Ed Ferguson, and Smiles Morse still walked away with honors in the sports field, and many more in your group went in for this type of activity. The crystal gradually brightens as I note the largest class in high school-the Juniors. What is this strange brightness? As I peer more closely, I see that it is the reflected glory of those members of your class who have brought honor upon you through the earning of high scholstic standings. Who are these people? Now the faces of William Granger, William Goodnough, Doris Chubb, and Louise Babcock appear in the cyrstal in answer to my question. In sports I see the Juniors win even greater glory than before. Those boys who participated actively in the first two years are now lettermen. Dick Hauver, Harry Gibson, Lewis Davis, and Tiny Finn are also prominent this year in the sports world. The girls, too, have taken honors. Beverly Bettis, Nell Stiles, Gladys Myers, Helen Kushner, Jane Hurlbirt, and Alice Reynolds, were among those who earned distinction on the Hockey Team. Outstanding participants in basketball were Jean Turner, Louise Hulslander, Alice Reynolds, Dorothy Howe, and Marie Root. An excess of class spirit was displayed in the preparations for a Leap .Year Dance, held at the Flats Community House on February 29. This dance was a most enjoyable one, and we proved to the Seniors that they had no monopoly on financially successful parties. 2.6 1 l S O P H O M O R E S Good little children, I know you're being consumed with eagerness to hear all about the 1936 Sophomores. Open your ears, now, and let me tell you all concerning the wonderous work of those wise ones. To see these snappy, vital, unique personalities stalking the corridors of the O. F. A., who would believe that they are last year's batch of Freshmen? With what allantry they came through the chilling terrors of initiation! My, how brave those mortals be! Beimre that first year of high school was over, the gifted freshmen were listed among the future leaders of the school. Teachers all over the school welcome with open arms the sophomores to their classes, for they know well the remarkable intellectual ability of this class. They round the dangerous curves and angles on the road to geometry with ease, and they leap enormous prepositions and conjunctions in English and Latin. Dorothy Ryan, Nance Haywood, Ruth Roe, Miriam Allen, Georgia Anna Shellen- barger, and Percy Van Etten, usually represent the Sophomore Class on the high honor roll. In the field of sports, the sophomores can modestly believe themselves indispensable to the O. F. A, I have been told-oh, but, one moment, can I trust you not to mention this to anyone? I can? Well' all right. It has been said that Linley Grant, football and basketball player, will some day be to the O. F. A. sports what Vadas is to Colgate, and what Rubinoff is to the violin. Take a bow, Lin! Lest you think Linley be the only outstanding sophomore athlete, let us hasten to mention Fred Livermore, Bob Jamesson, Dick Knox, and George Taylor, prominent members of the football teams. George Taylor also made a splendid appearance in Junior Varsity basketball, together with Reigart Lowry. Stay that impatience of yours, girls, there's also a feminine side of this sporting tale. Such sophomore girls as Frances Naatz, I-Ierta Wilke, Mae Belle Rosengrant, Betty Frank, Lucy Vose. Mary Kushner and Ruth Rauch shone on the hockey field. Some of these girls were members of the basketball team. Ruth Roe, Janice Nichols, Marian Allen, Carolyn Runnals, Gertrude Smith, Tina Tilly, and Nance Haywood gained recognition on the basketball floor. Now that I have told you all, aren't you sorry that you're not Sophomores? Don't you think that it would be a pleasure to be one of the members of this super-studious, super-athletic, and super- everything class? OFFICERS RICIIARIJ KNOX . . Prefident GEORGE TAYLOR .....

The Seniors helped push the first valve down, and initiation went round and round. This annual Freshman initiation was one of the first school activities that provided enjoyment for the upper class- men at the expense of the Freshmen. Since then we have found our stride and are now showing them what we can do in a practical line as Well as in the ridiculous. We push the second valve down and make society go round and round. Our first social function was a Freshman dance held in the school gymnasium before our Christmas vacation. This dance was the first means of providing us with funds to be used in the future. We push the third valve down and the sports go round and round. We are very proud to say that we have Freshman boys and girls in many of the sports. The boys, while in the eighth grade, won a banner in basketball-so there is no question but that they will represent our class as bright and shining stars in that sport while they are in high school. The girls represent the class in hockey and basketball. We push the fourth valve down, and the music and voices go round and round. In Glee Club, Band, Dramatics, and Orchestra, there are a number of boys and girls from the Freshman class who will undoubtedly follow that line of work in the future and be succesful. We have pushed the last valve down and we hope you will still see us going round and round. We realize We are young and undoubtedly green-but we are learning, and before our four years are over we hope to make as good showing as our illustrious Seniors-or perhaps even surpass them-so watch our smoke! 2.8 J U N I O R H I G H EIGHTH GRADE TheJunior High eighth grade classes are organized into three groups, called the 81, 82, 8i s, and meet in the Junior Study Hall for home room meetings and activities. Each group has its own oflicers, who have conducted the meetings for a ten-week period each. For the last ten weeks, regular oflicers from the entire eighth grade had charge. One of the most successful activities was the Halloween Dance. The class choose Junior High Indians for its name, and the class pin is an Indian head, with the royal blue and gold.

A. has not been very successful from a standpoint of wins and HUGH HOGAN losses, but it has done much to prepare a squad of next year's reg- ulars. Lack of seasoned veterans was undoubtedly responsible for this year's losses, since Captain Hogan was the only player who had been a regular on last year's squad. This lack of experienced players showed up strongly at the beginning of the season. Owego lost its first four games to more experienced elevens. During the last half of the season, however, the players had gained through their experiences, and showed a great improvement in their playing. In the Hrst game Of the second half of the season, the Indians battled the strong Towanda team to a scoreless tie at Marvin Park. Athens, holding second place in the league, was next on the schedule. Owego outplayed Athens in every department of the game on the Athens field, but, with Athens capitalizing on an intercepted pass and a long run, the O. F. A. team again met defeat by a 20 to 7 count. On the next Saturday, on the home field, Owego rose to the greatest form of the season by completely swamping Waverly. From the opening whistle Owego had the jump on its traditional rivals, and the final score was Owego 20, Waverly O. The last game of the season found Owego again accepting defeat at the hands of Sayre at Marvin Park. Captain Hogan brought a great honor to the school when he was chosen as center on the all-league hrst team. Dunn and Hauver were chosen for the second team, and Pitcher and Doyle received honorable mention. Most of the lettermen will be returning next year, thus providing O. F. A. with a squad of well-seasoned players at the beginning Of the season. Although this has not been a very successful football year for Owego, we can surely say that Coach Hubbard and Mr. Eales have done great work in preparing the Indian eleven for a truly brilliant future.

A.'s championship basketball team started off the season very unimpressively by dropping the first four games to U. E., Waverly, C. and Horseheads. The Horseheads game was the first league encounter for the Indians. Coach Hubbard then changed the team's style of defensive play and added a fast break to the offense. This seemed to be just what the team needed, for the next game saw them defeating the .V Watkins Glen team 30 to 20. Ithaca College Frosh next fell before ff' 'A-G3 the Owego machine. This triumph was followed by successive J victories over Montour Falls, Waverly, Newark Valley and -r Elmira Heights. U. E. then defeated Owego by a narrow margin ' in a thrilling encounter. f Then came the crucial game with Horseheads. A victory over A Horseheads would throw Owego into a tie with Horseheads for first place in the league. ln a fast, well played game the O. F. A. JOHN D02 LE defeated Horseheads 35 to 27. C f ' Johnson City then overcame Owego by a small margin, This setback was followed by a four game winning streak. These league victories were over Watkins Glen, Montour Falls, Newark Valley and Elmira Heights. This winning streak gave Owego their first championship in Southern Counties League competition, and wound up a very successful league schedule with 9 wins to 1 defeat. Coach Hubbard then entered his team in the Class B tournament of section four. Owego represented the Western Division and Walton the Eastern Division. The game was played at Johnson City, and a thrilling last minute finish gave Owego the game 26 to 25, and the opportunity of bringing home two championships this year. John Doyle, captain, deserves special mention for his outstanding playing during the whole season. The honor of being high scorer in the league, with a score of 95, came as fitting reward for his consistently able leadership.

A basketball tournament was scheduled but had to be cancelled. When competition stopped, the Seniors were leading the Senior High League with six straight victories, the Junior I's werein second place, with the Freshman in third place. In the Junior High League the Seven IlI's were in first place with the Eight His and Eight I's in second and third places respectively. TENNIS The O. F. A. enjoyed a successful year in tennis for the season 1935. The team won four contests and lost two to Finish in second place. The team defeated Endicott twice and Binghamton and Cortland each once. The games lost were one each to Bingham- ton and Cortland. The team was composed of the following players 1 Taylor, Ackerman, Knox, Knickerbocker, and Beere. All of them except Ackerman will be back for the 1936 season. Taylor and Ackerman advanced as far as the semi-finals in the Section of tourna- ments. GOLF The 1935 edition of the golf team met with little success in league competition. The team lost seven matches and won one. Loss of regulars from the preceding year seemed to be the main reason for this slump. The outlook for the 1936 season, how- ever, is bright, with the return of most of the players. The team consisted of Welch, Schmidt, Ferguson, Beere, Tilly, Monroe, and Wolslegel. Welch, playing in the section 4 tournament for individual honors, tied for third place. 34 STUDENT COUNCIL Barnet, Mead, Hunt, famenon, Root, Fab!

At this time the O. F. A. Football Team, rather disheartened and low-spirited, needed the whole-hearted support of the student body. The Student Council, in coming to the rescue, planned to restore school spirit. Reorganized cheering sections, pep meetings full of vigor and vitality, boniires and snake dances, helped materially to encourage the team. Perhaps the topic that has come before the meetings of the Student Council most frequently was that of interesting chapel programs. One day that a student ought to recall very easily is the one on which a picturesque production of the origin of the dance was presented, sponsored by the Student Council. The council has indeed tried to select programs that would be both entertaining and educational as well as pleasing to the pupils. Cooperating with all the classes, working diligently and persistently, the Student Council has endeavored to stimulate school spirit, encourage extra-curricular activi- ties, and to promote the general welfare of the Ovvego Free Academy. 35 TOM-TOM STAFF Cornwell, Pedro, Mantei, Doyle, Tltomaf, Smith, f.

The cast, under the able guidance of Mrs. Turner, gave a fine exhibition of talented acting and presented a production that completely captivated everyone. The audiences won't soon forget, We vvager, Dick Smith's irate tirades or Jeanette Chute's charming portrayal of his wife, as well as the assistance given by the supporting cast.

The records have been proved veritable, so that this year marks the launching of a restored honor society. The long and tedious task of making a restitution of the records was accomplished under the guidance of Miss Skeels with the help of some of the active members. Hereafter it will be the duty of the honor society to perform this bookkeeping. An Advisory Committee will be appointed which will guide those eligible for the society in scholarship, to secure sufficient extra-curricular merit points. Also, a drive will be made to awaken those whose minds are rather hazy about this subject. lf present plans materialize, the Honor Society will be a member of the National Honor Society by the end of the present term, and will hope to play an even more important part in supporting the Owego Free Academy and its undertakings. 41 FUTURE FARMERS KEITH F. BARTLOW . Prefident A. FRANCIS XVRIGHT . Vice-President DAVID L. SCHNEIDER . . Treasurer ALBERT SPENCER . Secretary LlasTER MARSH Reporter The Owego chapter of Future Farmers is a branch ofthe National Organization known as the Future Farmers of America. ' This organization has live main purposes: 1. To promote vocational agriculture in the high schools of America. 2. To create more interest in agricultural occupations. 3. To promote thrift. 4. To promote scholarship. 5. To develop local leadership. ln the seven years since its organization, the Owego chapter has constantly strived to develop each of these purposes. During the year the association conducts tours to the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University. Here the members listen to lectures on up-to-date agricultural methods, take part in judging contests, and attend a meeting of the State Future Farmers Association. Members of the club are required to have investments in agricultural entrprises, such as poultry or other live stock, and to carry on these individual investments successfully through their own efforts. High standards of classroom work are required of Future Farmers who desire ad- vancement in the organization. Future Farmers are allowed to assume responsibility as often as possible, in order that they may be able to carry the burdens of leadership. ln these many ways, the Future Farmers feel that they are carrying out the ideals set up by the National Association.

Adtfiier The Handy Club, composed of girls interested in needle work, this year gained much enjoyment from the various projects selected by the members of the club. Knitting, crocheting and embroidering were among the projects listed. A party for members of the club was planned and held in the Homemaking Depart- ment under the leadership of the entertainment committee. The girls thoroughly enjoy the opportunity of making things they really want, and are very proud of the attractive results of their handicraft.

This year, under the direction of Miss Dean, such a club was formedvthe Girls' O Club. All girls who have won numerals at any sport are eligible for membership. The aims of this club are to promote and stimulate interest in girls' athletics, sponsor a few social events each year within the club, and settle any business matters that come up during the year. The girls have planned a leap year dance for April, and hope to close their year with a banquet for all members. This spring the club will sponsor intramural soft ball, tennis, and a hiking unit of the club. 47 GlRLS'HOCKEY l Vimrio, Rqynoldr, Vase, Dean, Stiler, Bird, Kuflwer Nuatq, Rarevzgmnt, Wilke, Hulbirt, Rantb, Howe This fall a new sport-field hockey-was introduced to the girls of the Owego Free Academy. Field hockey proved to be a popular sport and any afternoon one could see forty or fifty high school and junior high school girls on the field at Marvin Park. Since this was the first year for this sport, much time had to be spent with the fundamentals of the game, but it is hoped that next year the Owego girls can partici- pate in hockey play days with other nearby schools. During the season Miss Dean took some of the girls to Elmira College to see an intercollegiate hockey play day. Elmira, Wells, Alfred, and Cornell participated in this play day which gave the Owego girls an idea of how the game should be played. At the end of the season class teams were organized with Helen Kushner captain of the Junior-Senior team, Frances Naatz of the Freshman-Sophomore team and Rita Hastings of the Junior High team. The Junior-Senior team came out victors in the interclass tournament. 48 GIRLS' BASKETBALL 4 Hulbirt, Patton, Rae, Mqferr, Vafe, Carferlifze, Turner, Dean RQl'fI0lL1J', Allen, llfeekr, fnhnmn, Bird, Brown, Howe, l'V!fke CAPTAINS MARCELLA BIRD . . .Yenior ALICE REYNOLDS . . junior RUTH Ron . . .Yoplfomore ALMA XVICARIO Frerlrman Much enthusiasm was in evidence for girls basketball this year. Coached by Miss Dean, a former star of the girls' varsity of the O. F, A., the girls improved steadily, and keen and spirited competition showed itself in the playing of a round-robin tournament. The Juniors not only won this tournament, but played to the final round in an elimination tournament. The flood in the gymnasium halted this last play-off, which was to have been between the juniors and Seniorsg and also put a wet blanket on plans for a game with the Faculty team. 49 I ATHLETICS-l.
