WAGON 1950 The long summer rest over, the first whips cracked in early September and, with the election of the following officers, 1950's Covered Wagon was on its way: Milton Wade - President, Gary Holman - Vice-President, Pat Skiimer - Secretary, Joyce Eggleston - Treasurer. Mr. and Mrs. Vicary are our capable and willing guides. Selling hot dogs, cooked over our cafeteria campfires by our able camp cooks, pop, and ca.ndy at football games, started out our year. We sponsored a benefit movie, A Date With Judy early in the year. Later we sold Christmas ornaments. All were sold but two, which were eaten by school mice The only other casualty was when John Hohreiter got his foot shut in a customer's door. Now we're trying to sell banners- fwant to buy onel -with BAINBRIDGE on them. Of course our class rings caused a lot of excitement in December. Some of us found fool's gold in that strike but replacements are coming - without any chips. Our Junior Prom will be the final touch to a successful Junior Class Year and the and of three-fourths of our journey.

WAGON 1 95 1 President-Janet Parker, Vice-President-John Armstrong, Secretary-Betty Parsons, and Treasurer-Hugh Collins are at the reins for the class of 1951 this year. Mr. and Mrs. Blythe are on hand to chart our course, guiding us over the unmapped land and finding the water holes to revive our morale when all seems desert waste. We did not wait until the end for our gold strike, but by diligence we secured small amounts along the way. The first paid well in fun. It was a skating party on October 1. The Sophomore Hop at which we sold ice cream sodas and sundaes brought in real metal which increased the treasury. Placer mining was our next venture, each class member screening out many tiny nuggets and the combined efforts of this the sale of magazine subscriptions, was suc- cessful indeed. Gaiety and laughter and the warm glow that is the Christmas spirit were our re- turns from our Holiday Party. Though our wagon creaks and not yet two years old, we are confident that it will carry us west without too many delays or accidents in the usual four years.

WAGON 1 95 2 By far the largest wagon of them all was needed to carry the class of '52. In the saddle were: President, Joe Armstrong, Vice-President, Lee Benedict, Secretary, Pauline Palmer, and Treasurer, Mary Jane Jones. Mrs. Benjamin and Mr. Black, our chief scouts, aided us in fording the first stream of opening day, those baffling schedules and early class organization. The first miles on the trail were busy ones for new travelers, and it was not until Christmas that we relaxed in a party. Again in January was another festive time, a skating party at Sidney. A benefit movie and the sale of candy during the second semester were our only money-making projects. It is an endless trail to the gold fields of the west. When banking started, Pauline Palmer and Joe Armstrong were chosen as bank tellers. The class made a good start the first day with 41.61, banking. The tellers had some trouble this first time because they were a little short of money, but after a more systematic procedure was discovered, banking went smoothly. Roll along, Covered Wagon, Roll along you have a long, long way to go.

EIGHTH GRADE Our wagon train has not even started, collection of equipment and training of our pioneers is not complete, but as we wait to strike the trail we are very busy. Our primary project is a trip to Albany. This is for the purpose of visiting the museum, the legislature and other points of educational and historical interest in our capitol city. To secure money for this trip we held box socials, bake sales, sold candy in school, had a benefit movie, and contributed dues to the class fund. Committees working with Mrs. Butler were in charge of each separate undertaking and for our trip we earned over three hundred forty-one dollars. 4 - L A 9 A L 4 A 4 L 1 W' First Row - Donald Eggleston, James Mills, Eddie Carlin, Richard Smith, Lyle Warren, Leonard Owens, Richard Niles, Erwin Toby, Charles Burrows, Dick Kingsley, William Cairns, Benny Simonds.

We are not even certain that all will accompany the ex- pedition--our world is a bewilderment of why, where, and who. We have gone from one to many teachers, subjects are quite different, we have some more freedom of action bringing with it new responsibilities, in all we are taking a big step in growing up, and it is not surprising that some of us stumble. This is the first year that our representatives sit in the Student Council, and for that honor we selected Mary Jane Butts and Betsy Stiles. During the Easter recess the class made their annual pilgrimage to our New York State shrine of baseball and early rural life, Cooperstovm. There -- that nail is in, help us with this heavy wheel -- heave ho, soon this will be rolling along -- is that -map ready? 1, lpqg - - THE LITTLE RAINDROP I am a little raindrop. I came from a river, and now I am in a cloud with my father and mother. I have four brothers and sisters. My mother thought it would rain tonight so I went to sleep. All of a sudden I was dropping down, down, and down. I was very cold. I looked down at myself. I was all white. Now I was a snow flake. I landed on top of some other snowflakes. In the morning there were a lot of other snow flakes on top of me. I was so crowded I could not move. But through all of the snow flakes I could hear noises. Then I was on top of a snow man. Many days I was on the top. Finally the sun came out and I was myself a- gain. How happy I was just then. Iwas going up, up, and up. Soon I was back on a cloud. I had gone through all the experiences I wanted -- for a while. Nancy Lee Hughston 5th Grade MY ADVENTURE IN FAIRYLAND One night I thought I was in fairyland. I thought I saw ice cream cones hang- ing on the trees. It was a very beautiful sight. All of the land was made of gold, the cookies lay on the ground. I wished you could have been there. I stood there looking around when POP , all of the beautiful things went away just as if they were brusting bubbles. I shouldn't have been chewing bubble gum in bed.

STUDENT COUNCIL David Coe was elected president for this year, Milton Wade, Vice-President, Helen Myers, Secretary, and Janet Parker, Treasurer. Mrs. Cheesbro and Miss Smith con- tinued as advisers. Our council is made up of representatives from each class, grades seven through twelve, and the chairmen of working committees in school. We are members of the National Association of Student Councils and of the Susquenango League of Student Councils. During the year we attended three league meetings, the first held at Unadilla, sec- ond at Chenango Forks, and the spring meeting at Sidney. As regular projects, this group supervised apportionment of money-making proj- ects in classes, Traffic Squad, Cafeteria inspection, Fire Squad, selection of winners of point system letters, and regular locker inspection. Undertakings for this year included initiating a chapter of the National Honor Soci- ety in B.C.H.S. and the purchase and supervision of class treasurers' books. As last year, Student Council sponsored a drive tluoughout the entire school for CARE packages to be sent to Germany. One hundred forty-six dollars was contributed for this. Prizes of three, two, and one dollars were given in the sixth grade for winning posters on courtesy. We hope to institute new school awards to be given in June. A handbook for student use is another project under consideration. A - A ww In front: Roger Fletcher, .Dick Hoyt.

PRESS CLUB Aside from being the most active extra curricular organization in school, Press Club has the distinct honor of being the oldest organization. For approximately twenty years Press Club has been functioning efficiently. This year, under the editorship of Claudine Eldred and Violet Westerberg and able faculty supervision of Miss Smith, we are proud to say that the '48-'49 season should be a definite credit to the reputation of the previous twenty years. This year's Blue and White staff should be especially commended for its con- stant growth and the willing spirit among its members. To know Blue and White is to know Press Club, and Blue and White speaks for itself. I A - 5 - , L 4 . . g ew .1 , I .

LIBRARY CLUB The purposes of the Library Club are to train the members in better use of books, to give them knowledge of the classification of books, to give them chances to work at the desk, and to help decorate the library so as to attract the attention of pupils and thus interest them in making more use of the books. S The following officers were elcted for this year: President, Janet Parker, Vice- President, Marge Eldredg Secretary and Treasurer, Marie Elder. Mrs. Benjamin is For Book Week the members of the club helped decorate the bulletin boards and walls of the library. They set up eight table displays on various topics such as Science Pastimes, Animal Life, Mother Goose, and Nature. They attracted much favorable at- , tention A week before Christmas the members excitedly drew names to find out who would be their secret friends. To her friend, each gave a small gift or did good deeds for that girl every day for a week. This unique type of Christmas gift is in keeping with the Library Club's aim of friendlinessanii service. c ' ' - our adviser. 4 b 4 L ig A 4 l A EQ-IQ! - Donald Toby, Shirley Elder, Jane Scheldegger, Doris Hoyt, Patricia Sherman, Betty.K1ngsley, Catsy Scheidegger, Marie Elder, Charles Sherman.

Our pro- gram includes both social and educational activities. This year we have sent two Christmas packages to high school girls in Holland and are raising money to buy floor lamps for the homemaking house. We are planning to act as hostesses at the annual get together and dance with the Future Farmers of America. Our group has plenty of energy and enthusiasm, and we have many good times to- gether.

The Annual Spring Concert last May took a great deal of effort in preparation, but the re- sults were well worth all the work. We hope that the concert this year will be as good as last year's. In November, the band combined with bands from several other schools to contri- bute to part of the fine musical program at the Oxford Festival in November. Other activities on which we have participated are a combined rehearsal with Afton, the Norwich Festival, the Decoration Day Parade, the basketball games with Afton and Oxford, and assembly program in January, and an out-door concert in June. The band now has only thirty-two members, but we hope to have more next year.

Power's agency be- ing too far away, each student had his chance to model for the class. Different projects have been chosen for individual groups during this year. Under guidance of our master artist, Mrs. Kinney, the club meets every Monday night for actual work on these projects. The class is open to adult membership. Claudine Eldred was elected President, June Garrison, Vice-President, Marilyn Price, Secretary, and Joan Michel, the Treasurer. FRENCH CLUB This fall nine interested second and third year French students turned out for their first French Club meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. King. It was agreed that we would speak nothing but French. For the first fifteen minutes this system worked, but due to circumstances beyond our control,-English gradually crept in. At this meet- ing we played French games, sang French songs, and talked over current affairs. But that which we were all anticipating was Mrs. King's refreshments which were all we thought they would be. We had two other such meetings. One of which was at Christmas time. At this meeting we sang French Christmas carols, had Christmas refreshments and a won- derful time. During the Christmas vacation we lost one of our most enthusiastic members, Barbara Hackett, who moved to Hoffmans, N.Y. The other members are: Claudine Eldred, Violet Westerberg, Margaret Cudworth, Linda Salzberg, Arnold Craig, Thomas Lee, Corky Landre, and Gary Holman. The purpose of our French Club is to improve our French prommciation and to help us to become acquainted with the customs and lives of the people of France. Through the efforts of both Mr. and Mrs. King, we all believe we know much more about the French and France. Linda Salzberg THE Xrays ' The first Science Club of B.C.H.S. was organized on December 8, 1948 with thir- teen members. These are: Beverly Archer, Marie Elder, Eugenia Landers, John Armstrong, David Coe, Hugh Collins, Arnold Craig, Larry Dykman, Gary Holman, Dick Hoyt, Tommy Lee, John Sejerson, Royce Stoutenberg, and Roger Weeks. Miss Smith is the adviser. The function of the club is to provide opportunities for work in science beyond that of the classroom. Every member of the group is required to work on and demonstrate to the group a project in science in which he is interested. To be eligible for membership the student must maintain a passing average in his work. The first formal program was held at the January 17 meeting. David Coe, Arnold Craig, and Hugh Collins cooperated to show a display of fireworks. Sparklers, colored fires, and serpent eggs were demonstrated. This was climaxed by the all star fire ex- hibit which sent a huge cloud of smoke -- atom bomb pattern billowing up toward the ceiling and all 'the scientists hanging out the windows. More programs, with and without fumes, will follow.

GIRL'S SPORTS The high school girls started their sports season this year by organizing a Girls' Sports Club under the supervision of Miss Daubert. About seventy-five girls were present at the first meeting and elected the following officers, President, Linda Salzberg, Vice-President, Betty Underwood, Secretary, Ruth Roloson. It was decided at this meeting that soccer would be the first sport of the year. The girls were divided into four teams and these played after school. The games were played with vigor and vim, and although the girls ended the season with sprains a.nd bruises everyone is looking forward to next year's soccer. When the second meeting of the club was called, it was time for the favorite in sports, basket-ball. Because so many girls reported for this, it was decided to divide into intramural teams which would play after school. A varsity basket-ball squad was then chosen by Miss Daubert from the junior and senior class girls. These girls have played teams from neighboring schools. Games between the classes followed intramural competition and with inter-class rivalry tofurnish enthusiasm to both players and cheering sections, these games were a big success. An assembly program before the entire school was another part of the club's acti- vities. This was real activity, calesthenics, tumbling, and folk dances combined into a noteworthy exhibition. Our club has shown that active participation in sports is 'not wholly masculine, and this successful year is but a forerunner of others to come. - - - A Claudine Eldred, Gladys Shelton, Carol Searles, Leona Dibble, Joyce Allen, Eugenia Landers, Marie Elder, Norma Roscoe, Betty Newman, Betty Parsons, Janet Parker, Marjorie Eldred. CHEERLEADING Something new was added to BCHS this year, a Junior Varsity Cheerleading Squad. With this group added to the regular Varsity Cheerleaders, School spirit was sure to be kept at its peak. A faculty committee chose the following girls: Junior Varsity, Marjorie Eldred, Norma Jean Roscoe, Janet Parker, Betty Newman, Marie Elder, and Betty Parsons. Senior Varsity, Claudine Eldred, Gladys Shelton, Joyce Allen, Carol Searles, Leona Dibble and Eugenia Landers. Of the latter group, Claudine, Gladys, and Joyce were chosen for the second year. Marjorie Eldred was chosen captain of the Junior Squad and Claudine Eldred of the senior. New cheers and new pep have been the symbols of this year's cheerleading and these have functioned well in keeping high the morale of BCHS in sports. first Row - Tommy Lee, Roger Weeks, Roger Fletcher, Bob Kingsley, Pat Puerile, Ian Landre, Gene Craver, Carl Smith.

B 'FOOTBALL The football team started to practice early in September with a large squad out. The team had good weather and this gave them plenty of opportunity to work out for their first game with Afton on September 24. The game with Afton was at Bainbridge, and it was a thriller. L. Stiles scored the first touchdown on a sixty-five yard dash for paydirt. In the second half, Daly scored on a line buck and Bainbridge led 13 to 6. The boys could not be beaten. Even though Afton made a first down on the Bainbridge eight yard line, we held them. Ronny Hoyt saved the day with a nice tackle of a man who had broken into the clear with what looked like a certain touchdown for Afton. This game was followed by a game with Chenango Forks which we lost 13 to 0. Bainbridge played good defensive ball, but the breaks all went to the other team on the offensive. Bainbridge then lost to Whitney Point by the score of 24 to 6 with Cawley scoring our touchdown on a quarter back sneak. Bainbridge then walked all over Afton by the tune of 19 to 0, with Cawley, Stiles, and Parsons doing the scoring. The team had new hopes after the nice passing of R. Fletcher and the receiving of Stoutenberg. The last game of the year was at Harpursville which Bainbridge lost 21 to 12. It was a good game but Harpursville seemed to be on fire. Stoutenberg scored on a pass from D. Gerg and Cawley on line buck. The Frank Strasnicsak memorial trophy was given to Steve Smith and this year it will be given to Leal Daly.

BASKETBALL The varsity team started practice in November with only three veterans who were: John Sejersen, Larry Dykman, and Francis Cawley. The record shows only three wins against nine losses in league games, two non- league games lost to Oxford 29-27, 46-24 and two lost to Whitney Point 36-25 and 38-35 Seven games were lost by very few points, showing the big need of experience. Our boysx basketball was good but not as good as that of more seasoned players. Larry Dykman made the most points for the year with 80, followed close behind by Charlie Fletcher with 76. Larry Dykman was chosen to play in the league All-Star game. The statistics for the year are as follows: Bainbridge 27-Oxford 29, Bainbridge 25-Whitney Point 36, Bainbridge 27 -Hancock 34, Bainbridge 37- Harpursville 35, Bainbridge 18-Deposit 27, Bainbridge 33 - Sidney 35, Bainbridge 23- Windsor 43, Bainbridge 46-Afton 34, Bainbridge 24-Oxford 46, Bainbridge 35-Whitney Point 38, Bainbridge 2 Hancock 36, Bainbridge 27-Harpursville 33, Bainbridge 32- Deposit 40, Bainbridge 3 Sidney 53, Bainbridge 33-Windsor 39, Bainbridge 48-Afton 43. The J ayvee's had a very good season, coming in second place in a tie with Sidney. The team won 12 games and lost only 4. Jack Terry had the most points with 102 for the year and Tommy Lee had 87. The team shows much promise, and we wish them the best of luck for the next season. Tommy Monroe and Tommy Lee were selected as all- stars to represent Bainbridge at Oxford. The statistics were as follows: Bainbridge 41-Oxford 18, Bainbridge 20-Whitney Point 12, Bainbridge 29-Hancock 25, Bainbridge 37-Harpursville 31, Bainbridge 36- Deposit 17, Bainbridge 23-Sidney 22, Bainbridge 31-Windsor 33, Bainbridge 26-Afton 21, Bainbridge 47-Whitney Point 12, Bainbridge 60-Oxford 13, Bainbridge 30-Hancock 23, Bainbridge 36-Harpursville 23, Bainbridge 40-Deposit 50, Bainbridge 27-Sidney 37, Bainbridge 37-Windsor 39, Bainbridge 42-Afton 31. 4 A wh lst row- Coach Best, Bill Colllnge, Wendell Pickwick, Steve Smith, Keg Cawley, Eldridge Sheely, Tommy Greek, Ronnie Hoyt, Tommy Lee, 2nd row- Dick Lee, Chuck Fletcher, Royce Stoutenberg, Pat Puerlle, Gary Holman, IEETD-aly, Dick Gerg, Phil Demeree and Gene Craver. BASEBALL The baseball team had a very drastic season, that showed two wins against twelve losses. The team hit very well but lack of pitchers hurt the team. Through the season the team lost very close games that would have been wins if the team could have com- bined their httting and pitching together. Charlie Fletcher, Dick Gerg, and Steve Smith dld the pitching throughout the sea- son. Keg Cawley had the highest batting average for the year .400 according to games played followed by Smith with .310 and Stoutenberg with .295 which showed that 'the hit- ting was very good. Steve Smith was chosen All-Star to represent Bainbridge at the annual game held at Greene this year. Games Batting Genoa Batting Player Played Position Average Player Played Position Average F.

VOLLEYBALL The Volleyball team started practice in April for its trip to Binghamton to try and win its second straight championship in the section 4, class B Championship. 'I'he team left on a Saturday morning about nine o'clock, and arrived about ten at Binghamton North High School where we were to play. There were games held at East Junior High School and at North, the wirmer in each of these schools plays for the championship at Binghamton North. Bainbridge after losing one game of 21 to Marathon, went on to the finals, where we met Roxbury for the championship and lost. The team played good volley ball and gained second place which is a good showing out of 23 schools. Rex Thornton was elected our captain and did a good job of it. Karl Salzberg, Willie Collings, Steve Smith, and John Hackett were the spikers, while Keg Cawley, Rex Thornton, Leal Michel, Gary Holman, John Armstrong, Larry Dykman and Dave Corbin were the setters who gave the spikers the ball to slam for a point. The team had a lot of fun and we hope that this year they will win back the champ- ionship. 4 A - - - Trackmen: Ronnie Hoyt, John Hackett, Bob Hughston, Rex Thornton, Larry Stiles, Bernie Parsons, Steve Smith, Bruce Peckham, Dave Corbin, Roger Weeks, Al Michel, Bob Owens.

Lxterary w THE CASE OF THE RED SHOES Margaret Brown stood on the sidewalk in front of Kennedy's Loan Bank where she had been working for over two years, waiting for Steve her boyfriend. to come past in his new sedan to take her home. She stood first on one foot and then on the other, thinking blankety-blank-blank to the salesman who had sold her the pair of red shoes. They were so tight . Steve's car turned the corner and came towards her. He pulled up to the curb on the far side of the street, and she limped toward him. What's the trouble? asked Steve. Oh my shoes - if ever I wear these again, call the police. They are killing me 3 Pretty soon they reached her home. It was at the end of the street. Beyond was just fields and woods. The nearest house was a block away. She said goodbye, since Steve had to go to work and she would not see him until 8:30 the next morning when he came by to take her to work. She was alone, her folks were away visiting. She entered the house and her dog came slowly, almost crawling, past her into the living room. His head sagged, and he walked as though he were too tired to move yet he kept blocking her with his big body at every step as if he didn't wish her to come in. She turned and hooked the screen, something she'd never done before when she had come into the house alone. 'I'he dog acted so queerly and shook all over. Suddenly he growled, rolled to his side and a long shudder went through him. He was dead. She stared-terrified-and then she heard it- the creaking sound made by the bedroom door. Was it the draft from the hall? She rose - the telephone, she had to reach the telephone. But the telephone was in the hall - and the noise she heard was in the hall - a human footstep. The steps behind her were moving faster. Her eyes were rooted on the hook on the screen door. It looked like a monstrous iron crane to her, more complicated to unlock than the combin- ation of the big safe at the Loan Bank. A voice exploded behind her and the floor was suddenly a turn table swinging her stiff paralyzed body around to face the danger her back refused to take. She saw the gun first and then the hand that held it steady. She saw the pair of runover brown ox- fords, khaki pants splashed white with plaster, a tan sweater under a brown coat, a young face and a pair of mean glinting eyes. She told him to get out, but he only grinned at her. It was an ugly grin and his teeth were dirty. He wanted to know if her boyfriend was coming back. She lied and said yes. He forced her into the kitchen where she saw another man who had apparently just finished pulling the blinds and locking the back door. The other man was a mere boy but tough enough. He pushed her into a chair and held her so she could not budge. His hands were dirty and the size of hams. He tied her securely then went to the ice box and started dragging out food. After gorging them- selves with her mother's food and the contents of the bottles, they had in their pockets, they told what they were going to do. They were going to hold her prisoner and give her the privilege of having their company until the next morning when she was to open the bank for them. They had learned of her knowledge of the safe's combination thru her mother, her friendly mother who talked too much without knowing it. Her mother had thought this young man was only wondering where he could get water from a hose faucet. She had told him and also about Margaret and the safe with- out realizing it. So they had waited until her family left, then had come to the house, poisoned the dog with meat which didn't take effect until after he tried to warn her. She felt a million years older when the first streaks of light filtered thru the edges of the drawn blinds. Suddenly there was a peep, peep of Steve's horn. She had to send him away some- how? She went to the door while one man stood behind it holding the gun on her. Try- ing to act as natural as always, she called to Steve. He got out of the car and started towards her. She told him to go on because she'd spilled a ca.n of grease and didn't wish to hurry while she cleaned it up. He paused Jaerplexed at her crumpled appear- ance--and suddenly Marfaret, remembering and esperately hoping that he remem- bered also, thrust towar him a red shoe. The men gave her orders to comb her hair and straighten her clothes. Then they would pay a visit to the bank. They drove almost twenty blocks before they pulled ln- to the alleyway between the bank and a grocery store. She unlocked the door and felt two guns pushing her inside. She opened the safe and while one held a gun on her the other put the money into a bag. Suddenly they spun around. The scream of sirens rent the air--police burst in--and Margaret collapsed. Steve had remembered I ibut she hoped never to have to wear the red shoes againl.
