We can think back to the time when our parents and grandparents went to school and see a great contrast between their education and ours.. In our grandparents' time many students were not able to attend and .finish high school. There were fewer schools and many o.f them were many miles from the students' homes. Students had no means of transportation to and from school. Some had to walk miles to get to school. Once they arrived at their destination, they found a poorly equipped one-room school, with one teacher dividing her time among students of eight different grades. The room was hea.ted by a stove which sat in' the middle of the room. Since there was no electricity, the room was often poorly lighted. All in all the room had no appeal to the student of that time. In some places there were no' desk-s' so slates and books were balanced on the students' laps. Students purchased their own text books and supplies and the school library facilities were limited. Time, progress, and ingenuity have changed all of this in the past seventy-five years. Today we have cars and busses in which to go back and forth to school. The school building of today is a modern, well equipped one. Books are supplied bythe school, so that each student may have a text book of his own. There is a well stocked library that is available to all students. There are desks, which are sturdy and comfortable in which to sit. There are even individual lockers provid- ed for each pupil, where he can keep' his books and other belongings. The teachers are better trained for their work also. Compared with the 3 Ris which were then nearly all that was off-ered, today there is a wide range of subjects from which a student may choose what he prefers. In the academic field, history, English and other languages such as Latin and French are taught. There- is a wide variety of math courses availa-ble from business arithmetic to solid geometry. In the' field of science, such classes as general science, biology- chemistry and physics are offered. Vocational courses 'such as homemaking, art, agriculture, --shop. and business .,,courses,,,are taught to those who Wish to enter a certain field. Extra-curricular activities such as dramatics, music, library club and sports make going to school ag pleasure for many of the students. These extra activities aid the pupil in deciding what he wants to do after he graduates. In the years our class ha-s' been in school, many changes have occurred in Phelps Central. In 1952, a new grade building was completed. This year construction will start on an addition to that building. Since 1943 the school population has increased from 786 to 1085, an increase of 38fZa. The class started with 59 members and 43 are now eligible for their di- plomas. We wonder what changes and additions will be made in the years to come. We, the Class of 1956, are proud to be graduates of Phelps Clentral School. We would all like to thank our teachers and the school administration for all they have done for us in the past twelve years. 2 70: apgzeciadan a Zeaealq emu awake . . . 1 Twenty-five years ago this September, . Grove Nag-el came to Phelps as the new 1 principal. While Mr. Nagel- was a new principal, he was no stranger to the people of Phelps. He had grown up' in Geneva, coached an opponents basketball team at Manchester, taught science and math as well as coaching basketball in Phelps for two years. It was his fine work during those two years which at- tracted the attention of the Board of Ed- ucation of Phelps and led one- of them to approach Mr. Nagel, while he was serving 1 as vice-principal in Irondequoit during i the year' 30-31, with an offer of the prin- cipalship of Phelps. With his wife, the .former Chrissie Curtis, whom he had married in 1930, Mr. Nagel came to Phelps and settled on East Main Street in the summer of 1931. The first years were spent inf learning the job and completing his professional training. While he had received an A.B. degree from Colgate in 1928, he enrolled at the University of Rochester for extension and summer work which led to an EdM. degree in 1938. This was completed just in time aspcentralization was being considered, and the school year 1938-39 was spent in planning the centralization., On July 1, 1939, Phelps Union and Classical School became Phelps Central-School. Following rapidly after this came an addition to the school. Hardly had this been completed wh-en World War ll came, and besides the usual duties ascribed to principals, Mr. Nagel served as advisor to the Local Selective Service Board No. 518. After the war, came the predicted increase i.n the number of students. Pro- blems such as new teachers, new rooms, new buses and new courses mounted as Phelps Central School more than doubled its enrollment of those first days o.f 1931. But no matter how many problems confronted him, Mr. Nagel always had time for a cheerful and deep' interest in the future citizens in his school. While the business of th-e school always came first, Mr. Nagel found time to serve as an officer in the following organizations: Finger Lakes League, Rotary Club, Phelps Presbyterian Church, Finger Lakes Schoolmen's Council, Ontario 'County TB and Health Association, and the Genesee Valley Study Council to men- tion a few. When late at night We drive past the big school building on West Main Street, darkened after a day's activityg we suspect that we will often find the bright light burning in the principal's of.fice, as we have in the past. Mr. Nagel will be working on some more problems sol that the boys and girls of Phelps can continue to find a first rate education in Phelps Central School.

In Januafry the class presented an assembly in the form of a talent show. A round a11d square dance which proved to be an -enjoyable experience was held in April. The next year the sophomores elected the -followingofficers: Do-nald Tread- well, president, Mary Lyon, vice-president, Marcia Kenyon, secretary, Robert Whitson. treasurer, Virginia Madigan, assembly committee representative. That year a new advisor, Miss -June Witzel, replaced Miss Schust-er and Mrs Esther Wor- den who left Phelps. A 4 A Our senior trip was only two years away, so we turned our thoughts to making more money. Two one-act plays, Bobby Sox and It's Cold in Them Thar 1-fills were presented on Jafnuary 29th. They were a complete success. Bake sales were held in March. An entirely new project of the year was a sock dance, held on May 14th. With the first two years of four high school career now behind us, we looked forward to our junior year and the long awaited class rings. As juniors, our class had about 560 members. The first big job was to elect officer-s. The .following were fchosen: Janice Phillips, president, Mary Lyon, vice- presidentg Ann DeWandel, secretary, Robert Whitson, treasurer, John Maslyn, assembly committee representative. At last, in Novemlber, the time had come to order class rings. After many long mo-nths of waiting, they arrived in April. The first money-making project was a series- of bake sales held in February and March. Paris, France was the setting of a very successful Junior Prom on May' 20. It was well attended and proved to be a good financial boost.. Our year was drawing to a closer. The metropolis of New York and gradu- ation were j-ust around the corner. In the fall of '55, forty-five seniors assembled to elect the officers who would carry us down the home stretch in a very exciting year. These officers- were Robert Hofer, president, Donald Treadwell, vice-president, Ann DeWandel, secretary, Robert Whitson, treasure-r'g and John Rector, assembly committee representative. The first big boost to our treasury was the magazine drive. During the year refreshments were sold at the basketball games. To keep in step with the times, the class held roller skating parties which provided rolling fun for all. On December 21, Silver Bells, the annual Senior hall was held. Despite the zero temperatures, many came to enjoy the dance and get Warm. In April our trip to New York became a reality. It wa-s a wonderful experience. For the forty-five members of the class who had worked so hard, the trip was the most memorable event of our high school days. We all agree it was well worth the work. Now that our school days are drawing to an end, we realize much of our suc- cess is due to our two advisors, Mr. Wilber, who helped us through those difficult four years, and Miss Witzel, whose guidance through our last two years gave us the much needed help in our high school career. n S21 146114 775410: I Staunchly stands our Alma Mater Stately, tall and true.

When the echos die awayg Sing it o'er again. 22 Oh, our interests are with yoi Dear old Phelps High School And we as loyal students. Wfill obey thy rule. Zhao 791 Recently as I was sitting in my Texas home thinking ot' my old high school days, I glanced at the calendar and noticed it was June 25, 1966. It was just ten years ago when I graduated from dear old P. C. S. I thought to- myself -what fun it would be .if I took a trip' back to Phelps and looked up all my old classmates. I called my close friend Marcia CKenyonD VanHemel and told her 1ny idea. She told me to come ba-ck to New York State for a few days, and we could look our Class' of '56 'up together. After much debating with my husband as to whether I should drive our Cadillac on take a rocket - I decided to drive. After kissing my two little Conks good-bye I was of.f for Phelps. Three days later I was back in my home town whi-ch needless to say, had changed quite a bit. I drove out to Marcia's beautiful new home and after talking to her husband and two boys we were off on our rediscovery of the Class' of 1956. We noticed a soda shop in place of Whitef's Store and decided to stop and have a soda. The owner and head soda jerk is Dave White. After enjoying our sodas we drove off and noticed the Phelps Theater which has been enlarged and is now owned by Janice Phillips and her husband. We saw an advertisement of a new movie just released by Warner Brothers which stars our high school actress, Linda Main. We heard that John Maslyn is now married and runs the Phelps Hotel and that Lee Butler is married to Janet and is living in Newark. We went next door to the Super Shoppe which is now run by Edwin Mas- lyn. He told us he has branch stores in all the main cities. Ed is still quite the man around town. After leaving Ed we went to our dear old Alma Mater where we saw Jean Frederick who is now- Guidance Counselor. Jean told us that Ann DeWandel now' owns a private school in Y. C. and is still noted for having parties in her penthouse. Jean said Karen Johnson was ba private secretary until a year ago when she married her boss. We then wentto the gym where w-e saw Coach Gary Gleason. He told us his basketball team has gone to the sectionals for three years straight. Gary said Kenneth Overslaugh is part-owner and star of the great New York Lop Trotters and that Gerald Guard is now manager of the Rochester Royals. After leaving P. C. S. we started. toward Clifton to see our ibfuddy Virginia tMadiganJ Lapresi. She has a new home and is busy ra.ising her two little stones . Virigina told us to go over to her favorite eating place f'Stan and Helen's . We did - and were surprised to see it owned by Helen Edington and her hus- band Sftanley. Helen told us her sister-.in-law Norma Maines is now head nurse at Rochester General 'Hospital and is engaged to a surgeon. Helen also told us that Joyce Hollenbeck liked her job at the mountains so w-ell that she now owns her own resort hotel. Another of our classmates who spends a great deal at Joyce's resort is none other than the famous scientist Donald G. White, Esq. At Helen's we glanc- ed ati the television and noticed a girl playing an accordian. Why it was Mary Walters who now has her own T.iV.Ashow. We left Helen'.s and went to Newark to see Carole Mattoon. George and she are very happily married and have three children. She told us that Donna CConklinJ Allen, Muriel tFieldl Bailey, and Joan Ccontinued on page 465 23 .L .L Wnouope 9 'S 'E'-Sf Go F9 U Q?

On the rainy morning of April 16th thirty-six excited students andvtheir four chaperones set off on the trip that was the reward of four years of hard work. Few spirits were dampened by the weather, how-ever, and by nine o'clock we were all happily on our way toward the big -city. After arriving in Grand Central and finding that our dismal weather had left us. we all set off in taxis to our temporary hom-eufor the visit, the Sheldon Hotel. Here we -settled ourselves, and, after taking a quick peek at everyone's room, we left for supper at a nearby restaurant. Our schedule .for Monday night listed a showl at Radio City Music Hall, where we saw Serenade, starring Mario Lanza, and the famous Easter Pagaent featuring the Rockettes. After the show we descended upon the Great White Way for a look at Times Square at night, then back to our rooms for a good night's sleepC?J. Seven-thirty came early T-uesday morning, but did not find any of the Phelps crowd asleep. W-e were all -set for a tour of lower New York, including the Bowery and Chinatown. This tour ended in Battery Park, where we all boarded a ferry to Bedloe's Island to visit the Sltatue of Liberty. From the statue we went into New York's financial district where we saw the Stock Exchange and a coin exhibit at the Chase Manhattan Bank., Next on the list was tl1e United Nations Building where we had a guided tour. After this long, eventful day we ate supper' and relaxed at the St. James Theater where we saw Pajama Gamef' After the show many were still going strong. Some went bowling and others toured New York on foot. Soon after breakfast Wednesday morning, we all took buses to the dock for our visit to the Queen Elizaybethv, one of the wor-ld's largest ocean liners. Some used the full time to tour the boat, while others watched the various passengers ,boarding the ship. A visit to the magnificent St. Patrickis Cathedral Cwhich had a qfuieting effect on us alll was next. Next on the agenda was Aa complete to-ur of Rockefeller Center ending on the roof of the R. C. A. building. Afterward' We ate lunch and set off on a subway, not less, for the Museum of Natural History, where we had barely enough time to spend. . In the evening we had dinner at an night club, the Bal Tabarinn, enjoyed a floor show, and saw many famous CID celebrities. After the supper we journeyed tothe Roxy Theater where we saw The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit and an ice show featuring the Roxyettes. Thursday morning we caught up on some much-needed .rest and got our suit- cases packed and rooms cleaned out. Then we traveled by subway up into the Bronx and took a to-ur of the zoo: After the zoo our time was at last 'our own, so almost everyone went downtown for a shopping spree. A few went up th-e Empire State Building, but nearly everyone just wandered around. That evening we experienced a new type of meal, the Smorgasfbord, which many enjoyed. From there we went to see Bert Parks and Stop the Music, a television show. There were a few who were unable to get into this show, but they spent their timei giving New York one last look. By ten-thirty we were all in our special coach and ready for the long trip home, which ended around six o?clock Friday morning. The trip was tiring for students and chaperonesj alike, but we all agree such a trip is an unforgettable' experience, and many of us would enjoy going back some- time soon. . 25 . c, ifddl-'70dl40td7 Charles Amidon, will and bequeath my parking tickets to Mr. Nagel.

The Phelps Central Bulldogs had a very fine season, winning the Finger Lakes championship for the second successive year. The Bulldogs had a record of five wins and on-e loss, the single defeat coming at the hands of Victor early in the season.

She had just received a letter from Dale Dutton, who is married and living in Florida. From Newark w-e went to- Oaks Corners where Nathani Oaks now owns the Sand and Gravel Company and runs a Fix-it-Shop in his spare time. Across the road we saw a bigibuilding which Natc said was a car paint shop owned by Ronny Horton. We noticed a sign which read Ronny and Ar1ene's Paint Shop - We Paint Anything, Any color. Any size, or any combination. We did want to see Arlieane, but I also wanted my Ciadillac to remain aqua so we didn't stop. We noticed a big sign Trea.dwe1l's Poultry Farm - All chicks carefully handled by thc. owner Donald Treadwellf' Further down the road was a P. and C. Store with Chares Amidon as manager. We stopped and Charlie told us Henry Blackman and Paul Peake are now head 'custodians at the U. N. Building. From there we went to Five Points where Dorothy Craig has a danc- ing studio. lVe heard she is running Arthur Murray out of business. VVe stopped and bought a paper and noticed the headlines, Professor Robert Whitson believed to be another Einstein. 'We read the article which said our old pal Bob is now a great scientist and giving piano concerts at Carnegie Hall in his spare time. We also noticed an article on candidatesfor the coming election 0-f Governor of New York State. A greatly favored candidate .is Robert Hofer, our class president. Good luck, Bob! We started back toward Phelps, but we were run off the road by ,a Volkswagen' driven by Jamie Kirch. We were all greatly surprised to see him especially under such circumstances. Jamie said he was racing hi-s Volkswagen against John Rector's Thunderbird. He said he was glad he had run into- us as he now had an excuse for not beating John. Both Jamie and John are now automobile dealers. Jamie told us that Norman Middlebrook is now a Rear Admiral in the Navy. He told us Douglass Yeckley and Richard Shoemaker wer'e now in Canada, where they are head of a National Boy Scout Jamboree. We asked Jamie if he knew where Sue McCann was, and Jamie said she is now a famous woman engineer. Vile told Jamie to watch whom he was driving off the road next time, and headed for Mar- cia's home. We called Audrey Parker's mother and she said Audrey is now married and living in Wisconsin. l I decided to stop and se-e Andrey on my way home, so after Marcia promised she would come to Texas and see me soon, I was off to lVis- consin. Audrey wa-s' very glad to see me. She now has three boyfs, and Jim is teaching them to play the accordian. I left Audrey's and headed toward home feel- ing very tired. After all it had been quite a trip and certainly seeing all my class- mates again had been worthwhile. 46 9 -f . 5767 I .L E 5 Q ? FN. ff?

The Student Council began the 1955-56 year by electing the following officers John Rector, president, John Salisibiury, vice-president, Barbara Nellis, secretary Jean Frederick, treasurer, and Mr. Wilbur K. Hartmann as advisor. The main project of the st-udent council thisf year was the revision of the con stitution as to the nominating of officers. The petition system of nominating offi cers will be used in years to come. The outside assembly programs for the following year were chosen, with the council paying for one. Our president and vice-president represented the Student Council at the Zone Student Council meeting in the fall at Warsaw Central School. ' The fall meeting of the Ontario-Yates County Student Council Association. was held at Honeoye Central School with Barbara Nellis, John Rector, and John Salis bury attending as our representatives.
