I-hkiofy As you know, the name of our yearbook means 'Indian Bunting Ground'--and in September, 1958 three wee 'Ind1ans', namely--papoose Audrey Jeffers, Corrine Hall and 'Indian Brave' Edward Finley, entered the 'happy hunting ground' of dear old Sackets Harbor High School and went into the first grade, where 'Ch1ef', Miss June Knight met us. When January approached, we hailed as our new teacher, Miss Julia Hazelwood Know Mrs. Brown.9 We were taught the alphabet and a few numbers, Then in June we were awarded certificates, which entitled us to enter the second grade. In the second grade, our teacher was Mrs. Ruby Widrig. This year Edward Finley left our little tribe. Here, our harassed teacher attempted to teach us a few more numbers. After the summer vacation, we went into the third grade, taught by Mrs. Verna Eveleigh. While in this grade, we added two new members, Carol Brass and Candace Fields, which made our group number four. Our tribe passed this grade with flying colors and went into the fourth grade, where we were Joined by Kenny Mcwayne. Mrs. Martha Stratton attempted to teach us everthing the diction- ary had to afford and what the social studies did contain about ancient civiliza- tion. Finally, we mastered these and passed into the fifth grade. Our teacher was Mrs. Marian Knowlton and we were Joined by Johnny Breuer. Going into the sixth grade gave us a thrill because it was on the upper floor. Our teacher, Mrs. Thelma Thomas, enrolled two more students, Nancy Warren, Dorothy Thompson and Edward Finley re-entered. We were given our cer- tificates and entered the seventh grade with Mrs. Julia Brown, as our teacher. In this year, Ada Price and Gordon Lunderman Joined us. The next year was a great Joy for us because although we had a room for ourselves, our classes were taught by the high school teachers and our schedule was the same as the high school. Grover Brenon enlarged our growing clan. The next year we started our freshman year by electing our class officers, choosing a motto, a class flower and colors. Mrs. Irene Jerome became our faculty adviser. It was during this year that our principal, Mr. Robinson returned to school after having served in the United States Army. During this year we had a St. Patr1ck's dance, which was quite successful. Gene Summers joined our tribe, which was to struggle through the next four years. When our sophomore year came, Alex Thompson, Ted Kanyoh and John Lacomb came too. Our main activity this year was our St.Valen5ine's Dance. Our Junior year was a

HISTORY CONTINUED-- year of many activities, which included selling magazines, stationery, candy, ice cream, holding food sales and selling hot dogs and cokes at football and basketball games. The big activity of the year was the Junior Prom. We decorated the auditorium in Blue and Gray, the Senior Class Colors. Electlons for a Queen were carried on. Evelyn McIntosh was elected J and her attendants were: Earleen O'Del1, Fern Murphy, Ann Kelly and Peggy Cady. Geraldine Phillips, Queen of the Junior Prom of 1948, presented the crown to Evelyn and then a Grand March was held, in which all participated. Sheila Dingman entered our fast-growing class. Martha Howe left this year and Jo Anne Mott, our president, graduated in three years, so she left us, also. Pat Carroll left to Join the Coast Guard. Then came our final year! In retrospect, how those first three years have flown--now we are approaching, all too quickly, the end of our Fourth year and Graduation!! Our Senior year has been a busy one--we flooded the market with WT' shirts, 'Sweatshirts' and ice cream in order to augument our funds for our New York trip. Josephine Bergin Joined our merry band, coming here from Watertown. We shopped for new clothes for our New York Trip and paraded our finery on Fifth Avenue during Easter Week. And--at long last, Graduation Day ------- the coveted diploma in our hand--and in our hearts land eyes,D a few tears--but great Joy too, in the accomplishment of a task begun so many years ago, we bid farewell to dear Sackets High.
