' ,,,pi'H ' MONUM EN T FUHEWIJHII The 1952 Blast has chosen as our theme Our Home Town , which is Warsaw the county seat of Wyoming County. Whether we realize it or not, our town means a great deal to us now and in the future, for here we start our careers and travel toward success. Work- ing together with. our communit , we enjoy the many privileges that are oaiered to us. Our community consists of many officials and their aides who work to make our village a clean, respectable, pleasant town. Through the kindness of our Mayor, Mr. Huold Doody, we have this greeting for you: Gpffl :gs S1 5:5905 Bl- pb - Tx-XE C6813 gms , ghexgk 10 N ' lege 0995 N WSF Marx: me ki at QF Loawl ' nge: , wbfn og Qi . gmc . hx? ,5 5 he Youtrcomvxswlwof cillmenjvae' vol 069 W' ana qw ouotcho Yost? wav, 'fleas e x w. .' s e ommvi' xai atv au' tewcfd X lx h So' - xt V C xr r of oulxfoxa Xxgxaxy 92?

He has been with us for three yels and has become very well-known in our community. Coach Davis ls not only the ho s' teacher, but also on a cold fall day he can be seen up at the plk rootin for the boys out on the flzl: playlag football. In the winter season we find hlm sitting on the bench with ae boys, coachln them on to victory. ln wrestling season we can see him at the wrestling matches pacing up and down whh a yell to the boys as they try to pin their man. Ol' coach has done much for our school, not onl ln the field of sports, but also in other extracurricular activities. Coach has helped sponsor our Student Council and because of his previous experience and his patient understanding, he hel d to organize the group and lead them through two very successful years. Coach Davis served in the wavy for three years, spending time ln both the European and South Pacific tlielpterg. He then attended Crrtland College where he took part in wrestling and football and was president o is aternlty. After completing college, Coach Davis came to Warsaw to become the boys' gym teacher and coach. Coach has a blg res onsibllity of training the boys, not only physically for sports, but also to take auc- cess and defeats ln their stride and remain good sports. Much to Coach's surprise, during the second term, he found himself teaching the girls' gym class. lf you see that he has lost patches of hair from his head, you will know that he as found that those girls are nat lm sl e. Itjis witmeat lenure and honor that we dedicate this book to Coach Davis. Coach has spent many hours with us and they have all been very happy ones for us and, we hope, for him, also. lt ls our sincere wish that he may continue to be a member of our faculty for many years to come.

Through this time we know that we have caused him many worries, but he has solved all our problems with under- standing and tact. He has done an ex- ceptionally fine job of supervising our school and its activities. We know that many times we do not give him the credit and recognition which he deserves. We wish to thank him for the time and energy spent in making our school function effi- ciently. We hope that he will remain in Warsaw as our principal for many more 9 The Board of Education is the group behind the school which must solve the problems arising during the school year. Among this year's problems was the present school building. The Board and a citizen's committee have been working with archi- tects on plans to provide safe and adequate facilities for the increasing number of pupils. Many do not realize how much hard work the Board of Education does. This group has worked ef- ficiently and has solved with ex- cellent judgment the problems with which they have been con- fronted. We appreciate the time and energy given by the Board to make our school run smoothly and successfully. V'-' ii M! . 4159 W I Y J I WAHSAW x ' .

A number of efficient helpers make up the staffs of janitors, bus drivers, office secretary, and cafeteria workers. The janitors have an exception- ally hard job keeping the school clean and warm, and of course the students must be fed every noon in the cafeteria. Through good and had weather the students are brought to and from school. The office staff has done a wonderful job of keeping everything in hand. We wish to give our thanks to all of them.

This committee, composed of the officers and four other members from the class, under the leadership of Mrs. Bice, spent a great deal of time and effort in planning and carrying out the various projects of the Class. The class officers are: Bill Smallwood-president, Adrienne Chase- vice-president: Rose Maha-secretaryg Bob Younger-treasurer. In the fall they successfully managed the business end of the Senior Play and appointed committees to assist with the Play. During the remainder of the year, various other committees were ercises. The entire class is grateful to this group for its fficient work. -f6e.n.'?a, -noe. Q EL!-lSS ADVISEHSQT' ,e.....,u.. Mrs. Rice .

For them, we have prepared this class history. We first entered school with Miss Myers as our teacher. We were very roud of our Rh thm Band, but anyone who might have been walking through the halls probably wondered, where the 8Wgll noise came from. We had a great deal of fun and spent much time playing in the sandpile. After a while we got tired, so we took out our pretty ru s and went to sleep. Then came the wonderfuf day when we were in first grade. Miss Wells was our teacher, and she must have been amused to see how we showed off our prowess in front of the lowly kindergarten. By the way, who colored their teeth all different colors? ' In second grade Miss Charles and Miss Lester tried to teach us phonetics. We also had spelling bees in which Doris had nice times. We began to show our brains in our hard, hard lessons. Among those we welcomed in third grade was Jim Vosburgh. Mary Lou Clark had quite a crush on Bob Younger. Warren Rider amazed all the little girls too. In ourth grade Miss Donlon and Miss Canty suffered with us. Don Austin and John Mulcahy joined us. Is it any wonder how everyone who sat around Doris ot such good ma.rks??? In fifth grade Tuffy Chase, Betty Weiser, Doug Hofmes, Kay Willse, and Liz Ball entered our class. Ann gmliury and Warren Rider had fun holding hands while the rest of us had to listen to Maida's Little oo s. Miss Affleck welcomed us in sixth grade. Warren Rider brought flowers to the teacher and wrote notes to a different girl every day. We also went on a trip. Finally came seventh grade and the chance to sit in study hall. Anita and Romona Crane came. The teachers wanted to amuse us while the boys had gym, so Mary Ellen Reade tried to walk on her hands. Sheila had quite a crush on Ralph Mucher. In eighth grade Stuart Watt, Pe gy Wheeler, and Shirley Appleby came. We had a hard time learning the Constitution. In December we made Christmas wreaths. We started a class book but never finished it. We also had a picnic in the park. The biggest event of eighth grade, though, was the time Bill Smallwood had to kiss Betty Weiser in the play, which we put on in study hall. Thanks to Mrs. Lap and Miss Miller we passed our regents and entered high school. We were very proud of ourselves and liketfato watch the envious e es of the lowly eighth graders. ln our Freshman year Pat and Junior, and kay and Donn began going together. We had our first strug- gles in Latin. The boys were in Mr. Stetz's homeroom, and they emptied a ful box of new erasers down the ventilator. Maybe this is the way they developed their skill of sinking basketballs for the team. We were all ve sorry to see Mr. Stetz leave. We 'first organized when we were Sophomores. Phyllis Neeley was president. We held a St. Patrick's dance which was ite successful as our first attempt at making money. Somehow Stuart's books were always missing in Rice's homeroom. In our Junior year, we welcomed Joan Carney to our class. Anita was president of the class that YOU: with Bill Smallwo od and Phyllis Neeley as standard bearers. We held our Prom in November with Dancing In The Dark as our theme. We thought our rings would never get here, but when they did, we really wse proud of them. We all were disappointed the day of the junior-Senior picnic, because it rained. Howevu, by the time we got to Buffalo, the sun was shining. Finally we got home about midnight, tired and broke, but full of a feeling of admiration for the Seniors, and v , ve happy. In September came the big day. We marched in thgrh-ont 'door and up to Mrs. Rice's room. Bill Smallwood was elected resident of the class. We spent most of our days watchm traffic up and down Buffalo Street. We had our inior Play, A Case of Springtime, on November 2. We had a great deal of fun doing it, but we held our breaths when Bill put the hat with the egg in it on his head. At times people have wondered about our class, but we feel sure that now we are Seniors, they have no cause to worry. Looking forward to The Ball, Baccalaureate, Class Night, and Graduation, we hope and feel that the Class of '52 has been a credit to Warsaw. 24 ., f -MQ' J .qv-,gi V 1' iii, hang. 1 ., ,V P I' fw:f1ff,m...,J aw ...

THE 1952 BL ST STAFF The Blast Staff lost many of its members at graduation, but newly elected ones quickly filled their laces. ln the fall the newly elected members, as well as the old members, joined the Seniors in a magazine sale which was very successful. Later a Blast dinner was held in the cafeteria to eam mone to publish it. Candy was sold every night alyfer school by members at school. With the advertising money, we had enough to start taking pictures in January. All year everyone on the staff has cooper- ated with Mrs. Hazlett, our sponsor, to give a picture of our town in this Blast. We hope that you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed making it. 27 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Seated, L. to R.: C. Hubbard, Business Manager, Mrs. Hazlett Advisor, A. Edmonds, Editor-in-Chief.

Among the former are the school calendar, drawn up for each month, which includes a dance each monthg and the traditional St. Patrick's Day dance named the Shamrock Hop which was very cleverly planned and carried out. This year has been the first time that the thousand point award system has been used in Warsaw. One new procedure initiated by this Student Council was the monitor service performed by the members to help the faculty keep the halls clear during classes. It ha been a very successful year for the Student Council, and the whole student body appreciated their efforts.

VARSITY BASKETBALL The Varsity Basketball team was potentially good this year, but because of the short time for practices, the boys on the team couldn't seem to click on the floor. Three ont of the first four games wee lost because of the bad luck behind the foul line. These games were played at: Alex- ander, lost by two pointsg Attica here, lost by three pointsg and Letchworth here, lost by five points. JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL The Junior Varsity team consisted of all new members except one. All the ames were lost.

The team lost two matches to both Perry and Geneseo, and single matches to Livonia and Batavia. The seventh, with Batavia, was rained out while Warsaw was leading. Though we won no matches, each layer deserves a great deal of cresit. Simard, Watt, and Smallwood represented Warsaw in the county finals against Perry.

The bill incorporating the village passed the le islature A ril 17, 1843 and the first village election was Eeld at the home of John Wiser, May 16th. At the time of incorporation the streets of the village were very dusty in dry weather and quagrnires during wet times and almost impassable to horse-drawn vehicles. The sidewalks were no etter except for a few rods here and there where gravel or tan bark had been put down. There were no street lights, few, if any, shade trees and no storm sewers. The community was sti l served by sta e coaches and Morse had not yet invented the telegraph. 'Fhe nearest banks were in Geneseo and Batavia. The public school did not go beyond the grammar school grades. Warsaw did have a post of ice, a band, a newspaper, the Westem New-Yorker, a town clock, a fire department, but no water system. Public buildings included the Baptist, Congregational, Methodist and Presbyterian churches and the county buildings. Turner in his bi tory of the Holland Purchase says of Warsaw of a hundred ears ago, one will seldom see a more pleasant rural vilfage or one which gives better indications of the thrift and rosperity of the country that surrounds it. The public edifices are neat and substantialg the private dwell- ings have about them the indication of comfort, convenience and good taste. The population could not have exceeded 600 and the community stood perhaps fifth in the county in size. For many years almost all of the money raised b tax was expended on sidewalks. From the first the board of' trustees had difficulty in enforcing their orders to build sidewalks and to collect the fifty percent of the cost of the sidewalks assessed to the property owner. This lack of 'power was most keenly felt. The board petitioned the legislature for more authority but to no avail. This resulted in the year 1856 in the villa e officials failin to call an election or levy a tax. The village govem- ment functioned again in the year 1857 but in the year 1858 the persons elected did not assume office. Finally using the charter of the Village of Batavia which had proved satis- factory as a basis, a new charter was drawn up reincorpo- rating the village and passed the legislature in the year 1860. The new charter gave the village board the authority it needed. lt also increased the number of trustees from five to six and their terms were increased to three years. Following the coragletion of the present Presbyterian church edifice in 18 , the question of a new town clock came up. The Original clock was bought by Dr. Augustus Frank and others about the year 1835 or 1836 and placed in the tower of the old Presb terian church. It kept good time and continued in use until' the new church was built. The town board appropriated the sum of 8500.00 toward theopur- chase of a new clock and the villa e 8200.00 and S8 .00 toward having it put in pllace. The :Starch agreed to permit its being placed in the c urch tower and the village to wind it and keep it in rlmning order. It continued to give 50011 service with occasional repairs until the year 19 5 when it had become so wom it seemed be ond repair. Lucius Ben- ham, a skilled mechanic, made the extensive repairs re- quired and it has run with little interruption ever since. Ex anding functions of the village in the year 1870 re- quires the expenditure of more money than could legally be raised b lax. The water works has just been built by the Warsaw Water Works Company, the organization of a fire de- artment has just been effected, there was need for fire fighting equipment, and money to maintain a fire department and the installation of street lights was about to be made. ln the year 1877, the village board anted permission for the location of the Soldiers and Saifdrs monument at the intersection of Main and Court Streets. The Emst roperty in the extreme northeast corner of the village, which was acquired by the village at tax sale in 1915, was opened as a village dump two years later. Clean- up week was also institute that year and continued until the year 1940 when Willard Barlow who lives on the farm adjoining the dump brought action against the village to close it on account of the rats, the stench and the smoke from the fires which bumed perpetually. With the close of the dump, there was no place readily available to put trash and cleanup week was discontinued. The year 1918 saw the numbering of the houses and busjness places and the establishment of city delivery of mai . A bus line franchise was given in 1922 to carry passen- gers between Batavia and Warsaw but the line discontinued operations after a few years. The Genesee Bus Lines, lnc., running between Wellsville and Buffalo, were granted a franchise in 1931, as well as the Greyhound Lines of New York. The latter only operated through here a short time. The first street light were installed following the erec- tion of an artificial gas plant in the year 1871. To start with there were only 8 street amps but in succeeding years many more were added. The lamp liglhter with his ittle ladder over his shoulder became a fami iar sight as he went about the streets. These lights were considered very bright. De- mands for street lilghts outran the extention of gas mains in the streets, so oi lamps were erected where gas was not available. Even at that many streets had no lig ts. Warsaw continued to be served with gas and kerosene street lights until the fall of 1891 when the first electric street lidits were tumed on. A contract was entered into with the Warsaw Electric Light and Power Company to furnish 32 arc lights of 2,000 candle power at a cost of S2100 per year, the same to be extinguished at midnight and on moonlight nights. A few years later incandescent lights of sma ler candle power were placed on less important streets. Arc lights, t ough using less current per candle power than incandescent lamps, are so much more expensive to maintain that the latter have replaced them. ln the year 1917 all of the arc lights were replaced with incandescent lamps and all night service was inaugurated ever night in the year. Boulevard lights were insta led in the business section of Main and Buffalo Streets in 1914 and later on Buffalo Street bridge, Cottage, COUI1. Perry Avenue and West Court Street. With the exception of a few outlying streets, all the streets are now lighted. What a contrast the present lighting system of 2341i hts presents with the 8 feeble gas lights which illuminated! the street in the ear 1871. The history of the Warsaw Fire De artment starts about the ear 1834 when the citizens of Warsaw, which was a hamfet of sixty houses, bought a fire engine and hose. The town ap ropriated S50 to build a fire house on the south side of Genesee Street just east of the tavem on the comer of Main and Genesee Streets. A fire complany was organized including many of theirominent men in t e community. At a public meeting in 18 8, it was urged that the village ex- amine all chimneys immediatel an that everyone owning a building fumish a ladder for the same. In 1864 the village board ordered the examination of all business places or fire hazards. The fire hose at this time was leat er as the buckets were no doubt. For a glreat many years the hose carts were hand drawn, thong horses were sometimes HIS'1'llllY UF VILL Eli QIZIINTINUI-TID pressed into service and the firemen were often retty well winded when the reached the fire. ln 1908 tlie sum of 83,000 was expended to buy a horse drawn fire truck, a fire team and for an addition to the rear of the fire hall for a stable. It was a thrilling sight to see the fire horses makin a run to a fire. By the year 1920, motor fire a paratus had come into general use and the village bought the first such equipment. As the original village charter made no provision for police officers, the town constables were the law enforce- ment officers for some years. Enforcement of ordinances and elimination of nuisances were the principal things claiming their attention. The revised charter of 1860 created the office of police constable with all the powers of constables of the count of Wyoming, and other powers conferred by the charter. The members of the village board were likewise empowered to make arrests, a power they still retain. In the same year the second charter was adopted, the board pas ed an ordinance suppressing all disorderly, drinking, tippling and gaming houses under fine of S25.00. The first night watch was Michael Hart who was appoint- ed in the year 1879 but whom the merchants or other er- sons said. Four years later the village assumed his sallary and a ded it to the job of lamp lighter. ln the year 1929 three full time men were employed on the force for the first time. During the depression, the force was cut to two, with a relief man working two da s a week. The full three-man force was restored in August, 5943. From the year 1880 to the year 1894, the establishment and growth of Warsaw's large salt refining industry caused such a growth in opulation that it put a severe strain on the water supply: lil addition, salt seeping through the rock strata ruined t e wells in the village, causing many to connect with the water system who otherwise would not have done so. Contracts were let for a water system to be supplied from the Cotton and Burke streams in the Town oi Gainesville with 15,000,000 gallon reservoir at Rock Glen at an elevation of 320 above Main Street. Fifty-nine acres of land were bou ht at the headwaters to protect the supply. Subsequent purcgases have enlarged the holdings to about 350 acres. The idea of establishing a village park came from the desire of the Wyoming County A icultural Society in 1925 to sell its grolmds on Liberty Sgeet. The society offered the ounds to the village for S21,000, the amount of its indegfedness. The proposition was put to a vote of the people and carried y a larfe majority. Work on the park continued from 1931 through 934. Some improvements at the park include six stone tables with seats and stone arches, a quoit court, an outdoor bas- ketball court, the equipment for which was donated, and all archery course. The village share of the cost of the park improvements ul throujn the year 1935 was a proximately 3 ,000. Severa. times that amount was spent by the various relief agencies which fumished labor and some materials, but there is nr way of knowing how much. Of the village part of the ex- pense 326,000 was paid out of current revenues and S14,00C was borrowed on notes to spread the expense over severa ears. No further development of the park was made aftel 1934 until the construction of the Beardslee Memoria Swimming Pool and the remodelinf of the Women's Building into a bath house in the ears of 938 and 1939. This is the history of Warsaw, which the Blast has en deavored to bring you. We hope we have given you some en joyment and a good picture o Warsaw.
