Eye Hfhfffe f is l n l iw - if ll , linl ' 'Zip U Foreword The common word reflections can be interpreted many ways. To the middle-aged woman reflections are the changes she ob- serves in a mirror. To a scientist a reflection is the bending of light. To others a reflection might be a backward glance, We of the TOM TOM Staff have endeav- ored to reflect in words and pictures the hap- penings at O. F. A. ln truth we are also re- flecting the spirit of the school. Like the mid- dle-aged woman we are observing changes. Some of these changes are goodg others are bad. As we attempt to reflect light into the future, we shall see how these changes affect us. As you roam through these pages, the TOM TOM Staff sincerely hopes that each re- flection will bring a pleasant memory. 2 Dedication The members of the TOM TOM Staff are happy and proud to dedicate this, our yearbook, to you, Mr. Jackson. Because you have developed a new and live interest for learning among all of us and have shown a definite interest in each one of us, we have found our history classes very enjoyable. Your pleasing personality and unusual ability in so many fields command our admira- tion and respect. We wish to express the thanks and appreciation of the entire student body for all that you have done for O. F. A. May you continue to be with us for a long time to come. mfzefwe andrew ,, x Contents ADMINISTRATION . . 5 CLASSES . . . .

One of our leading scientists has stated that Practically everything that we must know about the world and nature had not yet been discovered when the mature man and woman of today was going to school. On the eve of your graduation, the challenge of the unknowns is as great as at any time in history. You are living in an age of innovation, in which existing meth- ods, principles, and techniques are constantly subject to revision and obsolescence. Your parents, friends, community and your country look to you to meet the challenge. Best wishes tor success and happiness in the years to come. President, Board of Education 7sfMe 77 TDM TO I960 To reflect is to cast back. Thus, your theme Reflections is a timely one as you complete your high school years. As you reflect, many mental images come into view--happy times, hard work, and some disappointments. Equally important is casting your talents upon the mirror of the years ahead. What do you see? What is reflected? Only time will tell, but this thought is cer- tain: Two qualities make the difference be- tween those who lead and those who follow-- curiosity and discontent. The leader has both. The follower has only one. What will the future hold for you? Sheldon E. Guile Superintendent 3 'T -as Reflections must certainly turn your thoughts to the past and help you recall many events that took place during your school life. The TOM TOM is your annual, and on its pages are engraved memories destined to become more endearing throughout the years. Every day your acts reflect your choracter. May your acts ond deeds bestow honor on you. Seniors, the happiest days of your lives are about to end, and l'm sure many of you would like them to be just starting. Kenneth A. Vance Principal Four years for us of learning, Four years so quickly spent, Each day another finding out What those four years have meant. We've had the joy of learning The things we ought to know, Not found in far off places but In books we've come to know. Thus as we steadily move along, We cling to memories dear 'Till presently we all look back On one more joyous year.

The Sophomore Class started off the year with frequent class meetings in the audi- torium. At these planning sessions, led by our officers and supervisors, we outlined the vari- ous class activities for the year to come. Dances, bake sales, and class excursions were some of the highlights on the class schedule. We can be proud of the job we did to earn money for our junior and senior years. We have already topped the income of our fresh- man year. The Sophomore Class is also a class of individuals. Some have achieved positions on the football squad, basketball team, and wres- tling squad, others are cheerleaders, major- ettes, and members of our band and orchestra. Also, we have members in the Radio Club, Varsity Club, Concert Chorus, F. F. A. and other school activities. On to our Junior Yearl HOMEROOM 209 Front row, left to right: D. Goodrich, B. Sears, C.

The purpose of the club is to learn the opera- tion of complex machines and to work for perfec- tion and accuracy by following close tolerances. The members learn the trade through film aids, visits to local shops, and practical experiences. Front row, left to right: R. Richards, T. Crannell, F. White. Row two: C. Cornett, G. Holcom, M.

The Machinist Club carries on many activities. lt has a fine basketball team in our school's Intra- mural League. Members also participate in the construction of scenery and are responsible for the lighting used in high school performances. And last, but most important to the boys, are the parties and good food they have on many special occa- sions. Circle of Confusion The new Camera Club, known as the Circle of Confusion, was formed to encourage photography among the students and to teach its members everything from developing film to making enlargements. Another objec- tive was to help the staff of the TOM TOM in the never-ending search for informal photographs. The big event of the year was the photo contest. Everyone submitted sev- eral entries, and the prize winning pic- ture was entered in the national con- test. The members are now anxiously awaiting the results. alh Club Front row, left to right: P.

The trip oc- ' quainted the boys with a two-year agriculture school, which some plan to attend after graduation. Next, the group sold official F. F. A. calendars and will use the proceeds to send two students to the national convention in Kansas City. This year, also, the F. F. 0 A. was represented in the chorus at the New York State Convention. The boys have really had an active school term. ' Future Homemakers of America is a national organization of girls and boys study- ing homemaking in high schools of the United States and territories. The over-all goal is to help individuals improve personal, family and community living, now and in the future. The motto, Toward New Horizons , is o challenge. lt reminds members that their contributions to home life today will influence the kinds of homes they have tomorrow, ' that the family life of members will influence the community and the world. The thirty-five girls who belong to this group in our school are working hard to meet this challenge. 9 O MAKER,- 195 Y.

Besides providing assemblies for the students, the main project ot the Student Council this year was the inauguration of a school Christmas party instead of the usual homeroom parties. This get-together was a huge success. The group also initiated a special Christmas collection for the needy.

They talked on subjects ranging from the Sus- quehanna River to rock and felt that he had had a worth while experience. roll. Everyone who participated 5 Band This year has been a very busy one for band members. They started Football Band in the fall with the many hours of marching and rehearsing that go before the half-time performances. Then the real work began. About three hundred students were their guests for Area All-State Band, Chorus, and Orchestra. Much planning and work went into the check-in of students, Friday's dance, rehearsal, ushering, and other activities. Here, special thanks is given to Mr. Jackson who co-ordinated the hous- ing problem and helped make this program pos- sible. After this work was behind them, they madly rehearsed for the annual Christmas Concert. To make sure Mr. Keagle, their conductor, wouldn't be late, the band members presented him with a watch for his unselfish work with the students. During the winter the band sponsored three fudge sales and a dance, with a quick follow-up of another dance and a candy sale in the first part of January. Through these and other moneyimaking activities the band hopes to earn enough money for new uniforms, though the project will be a long and tedious one. After the Easter Concert most of the hard work was done, and the musicians all looked for- ward to the band picnic, the last activity of the year. 1-MMM. -iw-www-ew .4 CONCERT BAND Front row left to right: C.

Some of these shows included the Mexican Hat Dance and the Muskrat Ramble. Looking back, we find that probably the most memorable act was the one exe- cuted to the tune of Jungle Drums. ln this rou- tine, each girl turned from her role as majorette to that of a barefoot, hip-swaying hula dancer. Many thanks go to these girls who worked hard to present such splendid entertainment. Frant raw, left ta right: N. Crockenberg, M, Vance, M, Mead. Row twa: S. Hath away, D. Kuhns, C, Getkin, P.

The Owego boys, though usually outmatched by height, were seldom outmatched in speed and scoring ability. The contests showed mainly a team effort, although Jim Gumaer sparkplugged the team to many victories with his high scoring. The J. V. basketball team also deserves a big hand for outstanding performances. The Little lnjuns proved a threat to all opponents and won nearly all their contests. The team as a group played well, and one of their players, Don Burleigh, scored thirty-two points in one game to set a record for our Owego J. V.'s. HC.. I ...., .J.., .... la' 1.1.1 1 BU -Ll f95K.!

Reflection On Football Looking at the l959 football schedule, we find that the team, with a 2-4-l record, did not have a very successful year in the win-lose department. Although the season looked' bright after the first game, the Indians had only one more victory. Nevertheless Coach Lockwoad's men did show plenty of spirit, desire and good sportsmanship. The Varsity started the year with ten returning letter- men. One af the previous year's starters, Lee Sibley, had been injured before school began, Don Gawe, Lou Neira, and Ben Joplin were injured during the season. Next year will find a team composed mostly of seniors who should make a very good record. With a fairly large squad, the Junior Varsity played four games and had an even season. J. V.

The Owego team started the season with two victories over Elmira Heights K36-l3l and Newark Valley C39-lOl but then suffered a defeat at the hands of Vestal. Bouncing back to the winning column, the team collected victories over Binghamton North i23- 2ll, Homer C41-37 and New- ark Valley C39-l ll. They lost the next two matches to Horse- heads l2l-27 and l5-307. With only one senior leav- ing and new blood working up through the ranks, Coach Brown predicts another good record for next year.

Approximately one hundred boys signed up for it, and more than 70 per cent participated regularly. The twelve teams, representing different sections of academic en- deavor, gave themselves very color- ful names such as the Royals and the Pistons. They also developed some colorful players. One player in particular, Harvey Evelin, of the lndependent team, was a good play- maker as well as the highest scorer. Front row, left to right: A. Berg, J. Bowen, J. Buckley, G. Hyatt, E. Franz.

A., the girls' rep- resentative group in sports. Inspired by oth- er schools and by their adviser, Miss Hope, the girls began editing a school paper, with much success. You could always tell when the next edition was to appear, for the girls would be rushing from place to place gath- ering information. Besides editing the school newspaper, appropriately named, Teepee Talk by Don- na Goodrich, G. A. A. interested many girls in intramural activities such as basketball, volleyball, bowling, and in play days with other area schools. Front row, left to right: D. Burleigh, J. Lounsberry, R.

Though lacking in individual per- formers, a very well rounded team recorded four wins and two losses. This year the team should come into its own and add to the school's collection of track trophies. Five of the squad members qualified for the 62 TRACK STATISTICS 1959 Class A Finals at Cornell: Jim Ferguson in the half mile, Pete Hauver and Don Faber in the high jump, Bud Mallory in the one hundred yard dash, and for the third consecutive year, Lee Sibley in the shot-put.

A total of 203 girls played volleyball during the early months of the year and attempted to prove that their respective teams were the best. The bowling group had thirty- two teams with l86 participants. The school is rare that can better this record. The support given these and other activities by the feminine students made a very happy season for everyone. VOLLEYBALL CAPTAIN5 Front row, left to right: L. Brigade, M, Murray, M. Minni, M.
