This is our town, the town R wherein the cherished memories of 'X K l WW ing it may you remember the joy you've shared with the Class of '59, as well as with your own classmates. It is our sincere wish that this '59 Echo will serve you as a diary in the years to corne---as a wonderful re- membrance of your high school days of 0-wa ' our youth will always live with us. Our golden days are reflected in the cool depths of this sparkling valley stream. Cover Design by ELEANOR CRAIG O We the Class of '59 wish to dedicate this Echo to you, our parents. It seems fitting that this book of memories should honor the most important peo- ple in our lives. You have guided us faithfully from those awesome kinder- garten days through high school. Now that we have reached our goal, we know that we never could have made it without your help. And so to you, we say thank you, for all you have done for us.

TO THE CLASS OF 1959: Time has now lighted another candle for each of you. Time tenders it. bidding you to do with it what you will. No one man's candle bums more brightly than another's. Some are satisfied to let theirs flutter in the shadows at their feet. Others throw theirs to the heights in a brief, glaring spectacle. And still others. through labor and faith, hold theirs high, and pass among their fellow men so that all may be inspired. This light of life is too precious to waste, too precious for aught but to illumine a path of service and accomplishment. This, to you, members of the Class of 1959, is your challenge. May you serve humanity welll Edward R. Andrews 742 a.. These people have led us along our edu- cational journey with affection and under- standing. In our final year, we have come to appreciate what they have done for us more than ever. Supervising Principal EDWARD R. ANDREWS I wish to extend my congrat- ulations to your first teachers and counselors, your parents for a job well done, and to the class of 1959 for recognizing their continuous efforts, patience, and guidance throughout these years.

Each day, whether just starting or ending, we depend on our bus drivers safe, reliable, and courteous driving to get us to school and home on time. Whether the weather be stormy or balmy, they always manage for us to arrive at our destination. Besides just the regular routes, many times the bus drivers give up their own time to drive a busload of students to another school for an exchange assem- bly, or for interscholastic games.. , qv V A .J ' ,gr 3 'iii J LEFT TO RIGHT: F.

So far it sounds like students never do any studying, but into the wee small hours of the morning the lights are kept burning. Again our parents have to pay the tab---tired, un- co-operative children and electricity bills.

DAVID DALY - Vice President I BRUCE DARTT - President Waving banners--fiery speeches--anxious aspirants to the council officers murmuring their speeches as they tack up their final campaign posters. This typifies the last days before the Student Council elections. The Seniors for the office of president were Sylvia Bormer and Bruce Dartt. Their campaigns were maneuvered by Ronald Decker and Gordon Dolph. Paul Hager and David Daly were competing for the position of vice president under the able direction of Philip Schroth and Myers King. After the student body had listened to the campaign speeches and voted according to their choice--the results were announced--Bruce Dartt--and David Daly for 1959. 7 ' Wuasnmad Wd!

A new program has been installed. The Council has undertaken as its biggest function, the task of regulating student activities such as initiation, etc. It acts as a service organization by volunteering its services in organizing such groups as the usher's club, leadership in class, and assembly programs. Besides sponsoring the pic- tures of the service organizations in the yearbook, it also sponsors honor society awards, honor pins and activity awards. One of the other many projects that the Council under- takes throughout the year is that of supervising the collection of clothes in the classes for the Children's Federation Clothing Drive. The Council members would like to express their thanks to Mr. Best and Mrs. Crane for their advice and helpfulness during this year, and to the student body for their understanding and cooperation.

The reporters in Press Club collect news of the doings of classes, clubs, students, etc. , write it up, and turn it in to be featured in the monthly issue of the paper. The Senior High Blue and White is not the only task taken on by Press Club. The Town Blue and White, headed by Assistant Editor, Doreen Day, is the section in the Bainbridge News which features the news of the Grade Classes A special staff of reporters collect and pre- pare this news. In future years, the Press Club hopes to become even more profession- al in the newspaper business. 'M ft LIBRARIANS ROW 1, left to right: B. Gliha, C. Howland, S. Hulbert, E. Craig, S. Tuckey, J.

Mr. Huggins, the sponsor of our club, started out a few years ago with just one old projector. Now we have two new projectors as well as two slide projectors and a large speaker. The members of the club set up and run films. They teach the teachers how to run films and have a great time doing it. The members clean and service the projectors. Sometimes they even try to repair the equip- ment. We might add here for a bit of hu - mor, and hope not to offend Mr. Huggins, that the last projector he fixed still does not work correctly!!! R.

O I 0 Wm 0 The Annual Public Speaking Contest was held in the school auditorium April 18, at 7:30 P. M. The Speech Director was Mrs. Rose Marie Doyle. There were four contest- ants in the Dramatic division: Diane Rich recited Eleanor, Minnie Lawrence gave Submerged, Peter Ogren presented Death of a Salesman, Terry Lee Davis gave Dark Victory. Only three tried their luck in the Humorous division. Those entered were Nancy Crawford with The Tooth, the Whole Tooth and Nothing but the Tooth, Nancy Schroth presented A Society Editor Announces a Football Game, and Steve Kinney giving The Romance of Digestion. At last came the Oratorical division with six contestants. First, Kenneth Ogren re- cited The Unknown Soldier, Jean Crawford then gave Why?, next, Dolores Neid- linger presented The Big Parade, following that, Toni Hulbert said Peace in the World, then Myers King gave We, the People, and last Ramona Pratt said Give Us to See. After the final curtain the judges had the difficult task of making a decision as the thirteen nervous contestants lined up behind the curtains. Winning the Dramatics pre- sentation was Diane Rich, Nancy Schroth won first in Humorous, and in the Oratorical division Dolores Neidlinger received first for the second time in a tow. For the first time this year, second prizes were given. Peter Ogren, Steve Kinney, and Jean Crawford placed second in their respective classes.

ABOUT THE TONETTES: In fourth grade, the children are introduced to instrumental music. They all are given tonettes and they practice them for a year, Those who show aptitude are given lessons in the fifth grade. After a year's work, if they do well, they are put into Junior Band. From here, if they do well, they are put into Senior Band. Everyone gets a chance when it is possible. Through Junior and Senior Band, lessons are continued. JUNIOR BAND: The Junior Band is playing more difficult music this year than ever before. For the first time, they are having the same number of concerts as Senior Band. This is a great improvement because before they have had only one concert per year. SENIOR BAND The Senior Band marched away with many honors last summer. At Sidney they took lst place, Binghamton 3rd place, New Berlin 2nd place and Norwich 2nd place. For the first time we marched at the State Fair. The competition was tough but our band fared well. We had 94 points as a total and the band that placed 3rd had 94+. Out of 50 possible credits for music, we had -19. 31, and out of 50 possible credits for marching, we had -1-1. 7. This year, we too, are definitely playing more difficult music. From classical to popular, we play them all, C ado 1 ?' ctwws a ngigj In the Junior Chorus the students from the seventh and eighth grades discover how to work effectively for, and with, others in a singing group, The Junior Chorus is a stepping stone from knowledge and skills developed in elementary school to the four part singing in Senior Chorus. 7044 Wasted ' - daz and 56:9 70684 Always tripping up and down and all around the musical scale--that's our B.

We are having a good time singing the old songs and becoming acquainted with the new, as well as our new chorus director, Mrs. Shawler, and pianist, Joan Straka. Plans are being made for a Christ- mas concert with the orchestra. Several other musical endeavors are also in the plan- ning stage. Chorus Award Pins were presented to Kay Rusell and Jim Millus in June. These pins are given after three years of chorus work. si' Q Q-.4 L K ' fl, d e v Q- f -lr ,J --H ii' l Miss Hewitt giving special instruction to John Hayes and Sharon Donahe. In fifth grade. students can start lessons on the instruments of the orchestra--violin, viola, cello, and string bass. In the sixth grade, if they show ability and interest, they can start in the Junior Orchestra. Lessons are continued all through high school. In the ninth grade, those with the ability, can start in the Senior Orchestra. am ,, , ,, .JI Q3 ,,E. , r l . or .,,..... .,....i.,.r..l..1-...1..-., .. F, ..h, wwmflm- -Y X 1 5 t 5 1 wee! ' 704en 0m Ofzeiedha ' As the dictionary defines it: The orchestra is a group of players on various instru- ments which are divided into 4 groups: strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussiong the strings being the backbone of this group. Needless to say, before we can begin building an orchestra, we must build a strong backbone. Because the string instrument is the most difficult to learn, those students selected to study a string should be only those with the most musical ability. Students interested in playing a string instrument can start in the fifth grade. They may choose violin, viola, cello, or string bass. If the student shows interest, ability, and progress, he may continue his lessons straight through high school, at no cost to him. The Senior Orchestra is composed of those students who have developed musician- ship, technique, the ability to play in tune, the ability to read music well, and the ability to make themselves a dependable part of a well-working unit. The orchestra is under the direction of Miss Judith Hewitt. She and the students of senior orchestra have worked hard to make the group excel in quality thus making up for what they lack in quantity. This is the first time that three string players from the senior orchestra have partici- pated in NYSSMA's section All-State. 3I After the day is over--coffee break! C06 W.

Also the teachers probably enjoyed it, because for one day of the year they could sit back and leave the responsibilities of teaching to the student teachers. The purpose of Student Teacher Day is to give the students the opportunity to decide whether or not they would like to go into the teaching profession. Student teachers are Juniors or Seniors who maintain a satisfactory average and are qualified to teach a given subject. Those participating were Dewitt Niles.

We knew this would be a change from Kindergarten qno more lounging around all dayj, which made us all the more excited. As the year progressed, we learned many new things. In Arithmetic, one of the things we developed was the skill of counting by ones to 200, while in reading and lan- guage we learned to write our names Qwhich came in handyj and read furmy little sto- ries. Science appealed to most of us and what fun we had collecting bugs and other na- ture objects for inspection. I'm sure we all remember the study of the Eskimos in Citi- zen Education. Brrr, were we ever glad we lived in New York State. Health, safety. art and music were also given us. These all helped to make our day quite complete. Even though most of us looked forward eagerly to the day when our 12 years would be behind us, I'm sure we all have fond memories of our class working and playing to- gether throughout the years. lol-J Li l! ll FIRST ROW: L.

We have music, art and gym which is al- ways fun. We are learning more advanced things in our studies. We have now more school spirit and have taken a more active part in school affairs. ,t 'rea P -' 2Qki,5M'k FIRST ROW: A. Nolan, S. Dixson, V. Osterhout, K. Clark, L. Freidenstine, M. Morrison, R.

In History we learned about man's three basic needs - food. clothing, and shelter - transportation, and all about the legal holidays. In English we learned how to write a good paragraph, and how to read and follow the directions in our books. We also have started the fundamen- tals of discussion. f N il ' -5 ,, k ,I I 4.1 .

' mzdp' !- MZ ,Zeng em Our year in fourth grade was a major step in our lives, both in school work and play. We learned to do more complex work as we began to realize that there was more in the world than that which we could see and feel. We learned to work independently as well as to co-operate more with groups. Reading stories brought new meanings now. Instead of just words, we found that stories tried to tell us interesting things. In Math we began to work with two step problems. In Science we suddenly found that there was an outer space and it astonished us to think that there was any one single thing that large. In Social Studies we read about pioneers and learned about the role they played in the founding of our country. By the time we were ready to go into the fifth grade, we could work and play together well. P , J Q ,nl e -'xv 5 2147. ln, S Lg. J i 43 azxf .?' 1-f FIRST ROW: D. LaShure, F. Carpenter, E.

We enjoy active games such as foot- ball and bombardier, but we are beginning to settle down and take our studies more seri- ously - in one way by learning to look up material for ourselves. In Social Studies, we study the United States and its possessions. In Arithmetic, we learn about fractions and how to divide by two number. In one class, we have an Accuracy chart featuring boats that sail West. Science fascinates us and some of us would like it all day long. We have a unit on weather, but most of our study concerns plants and animals. We love adventure stories, and we enjoy writing plays and acting them out. fn -Leis. ff '?!' :QQ 'PDJ F '70 and '7 . ,..p--. ROW 1, left to right: R. Nutting, C. Weinheimer, L. Leighton, D.

In Math we started to work with decimals and fractions. Our History studies were about the Old World. In English we furthered our ability in reading and writing. In our sixth year we started in also with General Science. During our sixth grade year, the Safety Patrol was first or- ganized. The girls of our class started to take Kindergarten pupils home. Each of these helped us to develop ourselves in getting along with others. We are sure that sixth grade prepared us quite adequately for Junior High. X ge, s ye xl K2- ' .

We changed classes for the first time and don't think we weren't confused the first day. This was the year that we learned all about our own state, New York. We had a taste of some new subjects such as homemaking and industrial arts. We had art and music classes in which we learned more about these skills. It was a wonderful year, our first in Junior High, Socially and educationally we feel more a part of school life. An C1355 Dancing at noon. Y, ROW 1, left to right: J. Rosa, D. Wilson, S. Wilcox, R.

Our Student Council representa- tives are Donna Hotaling, Gerald Niles and Steve DeClue. In the coming year we are going to take on a skating party, have a dance, and perhaps other activities not yet planned. The skating party is on January 22. The dance is on February 14, Valentine's Day, so we planned to have a Va1entine's Party. We also hope to have an orchestra but Student Council has to okay it first.

We opened our tenth year by electing class officers, they are: President, Mike De Matteo, Vice President, Irene Shea, Secretary, Barbara Hubbard, Treasurer, Ina Dal- rymple. Since, this year, we have undertaken a new and better means of earning money toward our Senior Trip, we are no longer burdened with the task of earning money, and may spend more time with our school studies. This, however, does not mean that we have curtailed such activities as our dances, and other enjoyable activities. The class has already sponsored the annual Footba1l Hop, and has future plans for a skating party at the school. We are pleased to have Mrs. Hager, Mrs. Winger, Miss Smith, and Mr. Fisher as our class advisors. We shall work together, with their aid, helping to make this year better than the ones before.

But, to many of us our Junior year is just as important and much more impressing. To start the year off with a bang we have a new slate of officers. They are: Presi- dent, Paul Hager, Vice President, Gwen Stanton, Secretary, Linda White, and Treasurer, Dolores Neidlinger. Of course all of the Juniors say Thank you to our class advisors, Mr. Senio, Mrs. Crane, Mrs. Shawler, and Mr. Huggins, all of whom have definitely helped and worked patiently with our class and class officers. Our first project of the year was Freshman Initiation. We don't think the Freshmen will forget it right away and are sure that everyone will agree that the Freshmen can now be accepted into high school. The Juniors, like all other classes, are sponsoring a skating party this year. We are also planning a rummage sale in March to sell our remaining sweatshirts, banners, and laminating cards. The most outstanding event and important project of the year is the annual Junior Prom which is being held in May. This concludes our events of the year so until you see us again in our Echo as Seniors, we say so long I Fall, 1958 - saw our new elementary school in its early stages. Note the view the school children will have of our beautiful Bainbridge hills. We 790421: 'Wad ude wt Leif Tendon, Superintendent of Halloway Associatesg Carl Hutchinson, Clerk of the Worksg and William Nickerson, Elementary Superior, going over plans of the day in front of the new school. Grades three, four, five, and six are eagerly awaiting the first of February. It is at this time that we expect to move into the new elementary school on Pruyne I-lill. The first and most important reason for the building of the elementary school was insufficient room in the high school. Two second grades and two third grades held classes in the Presbyterian and Episcopal Churches because there was no room in the high school for them. The reason for building the school up on Pruyne Hill, instead of putting another ad- dition on the high school, was because there was no more available land okayed by the state. Mr. Nidkerson, Elementary Supervisor, will have his office and staff up on the hill. Miss Pagett, the school nurse, will commute between the two schools. The new school will provide big rooms for each grade, plus all that are necessary such as music rooms, art rooms, and a combined cafeteria and gymnasium. At the end of the day the school buses will pick up the elementary students, then come down to the high school for those students. The new elementary school has an ideal location on top of the hill overlooking Bainbridge.

Speak, S - and Sahel Spvuft As we look back through the pages of our diary, we recall the many hours of enjoyment provided for us by sports. Bainbridge can be proud of the following that their teams have always had whether they were win- ners or losers. It is a special thrill for the spectators, as well as those participating, to come from behind and go on to victory, but is is a greater achievement to handle the outcome with good sportsmanship. The players must learn to take criticism, with a smile, the spectators, to be courteous through de- feat or victory. All in all, we will always remember the good times and speak fondly of those exciting hours spent at the matches and games. There we have learned some of the finest les- sons in building good character - and win-lose-or draw - we'll always remember the Bainbridge chant Are you set? - You betl ROW 1, left to right: Manager K.

Although our boys fought until the point of exhaustion, our team, consisting mostly of Freshmen and Sophomores, with an occasional Junior and three Seniors, was handed the seasonal record of seven losses and no wins. They had 216 points scored aganist them while they scored 26 points. It is our opinion that with this year's hard earned experience, our boys are sure to turn in a more impressive record next year. dem 7-'efwd gow ,. r - ROW 1, left to right: K, Ogren, A. Russell, F.

The wrestlers may not win many matches but this is not because they don't really work, the boys give it their all but they lack wrestlers in several of the vital weights. The schools in this area respect the Bobcat matmen as a good little team and envy their displays of sportsmanship. If you want a winning wrestling team it is up to you to make it so, go out for the team and let the other schools envy your display of sportsmanship and re- spect your team record. R, Simonds, K.

Hockey, soccer, volleyball, basketball, badminton, softball, and track are some of the sports of the Girls' Athletic Association. The G.A.A. is made up of girls who have participated in any two sports - var- sity or intramurals. An executive council, which consists of the council officers, and managers of the various sports, heads the G.A. A. The council's purpose is to iron out any problems which may arise and to make rules and regulations. Wacky Our girls' hockey team had a good season with four wins and one loss.

Our team went through an exceptionally good season. The A team has a record of '7 wins to 1 loss. Likewise the B team had a record of 4 wins to 2 losses. With great hopes we looked forward to the play-day and finally it arrived. The A team lost its first and only game for the season after playing Hancock. This loss cost us the top spot in the play-day. How- ever, we came in second best. The B team also came in second place. The all-stars were Sharon Pollard from the A team and Doris Archer from the B team. Transferred: D, Archer, The sports enthusiasts were pleased to find out that for the flrst time Badminton would be introduced into our intramural program. A se- ries of tournaments were held during April and May. There were eliminations every week tm- til it was narrowed down to two remaining cou- ples - Ioan Lord, Bonnie Davidson and Virginia Bickford, Minnie Lawrence.

That decision is: What am 1 going to do with my high school education? Some of us know that we want to go on to college, but for what and where? Others of us may want to go into some branch of the armed forces, but after that what will we do? Along with the serious side of being a Senior there come the good times: working like mad to have the very best Echo yet, the Senior Play, the dances, roller skating parties, and of course, the Senior Trip. It doesn't seem possible that thirteen years ago a lot of us were starting kinder- garten, bright-eyed, shy, little monsters and now the same little monsters are a Senior class making important decisions and having a good time together at one of the crossroads of our lives.

But it was worth it, for then we were official mem- bers of the high school. A page reminds us of our Sophomore Football Hop, as we danced in honor of the football players. This was the year we ordered our class rings and we couldn't help feeling just a little bit more significant with our newly acquired rings on our fingers. One of the special moments of our High School days was our Junior Prom. The thrill of a new gown, a beau, and the enchanting music blended together to make the night a success. And so it goes, three years of growing up. The biggest moment of sharing awaits us - graduation - when we will stand together and receive our diplomas. There will end one chapter in our diary and a whole new life begins. ' , and I Dear Diary, Gee, what a magnificent evening! The old gym was really dressed up in streamers and balloons, and overflowing with joy and music for our annual Junior Prom, which boasted the theme of the Mardi Gras. Stu Crandall and his orchestra provided fabulous dance music for the largest crowd in years. At midnight, the stage was set with last year's king, Dewitt Niles, and queen, Eu- nice Mott, and this year's attendants, Bon- nie Davidson. Mary Lewis, Sheryl Hulbert, Bruce Dartt, Ben Nelson and Jimmy O'Nei1, when the new queen, Doreen Day, and king, Gordon Dolph were crowned. Although diaries aren't usually read, we hope this one is so that the committee heads and their committees, our class advisors, and all others who helped to make our Prom a huge success, will know how much our class appreciated their efforts.

Mr. Senio, our History teacher, undertook the task of directing our play. The setting was in a high school principal's office, the principal being Joyce Rosa. The plot revolves around a high school senior, Henry Aldrich, played by Kenny Ogren-- who has all sorts of problems. His girlfriend, Barbara Pearson, played by Mary Lewis, becomes rather discouraged with Henry's antics before the end of the play. George Bigelow, played by Doug Wilcox, is a typical rival to Henry. Others of the teaching staff who become involved, either directly or indirectly, with Henry are Miss Shea, played by Sheryl l-Iulbertg Mr. Nelson, played by Bruce Darttg Mr. Patterson, played by Gary Budineg Miss Eggleston, played by Doreen Day, Miss Wheeler, played by Joan Strakag Miss Pike, played by Bonnie Davidson, Miss John- son, played by June Banks, and Mr. Fergueson, played by Nelson MacPherson. There are several students running in and out of the principal's office. Three of the most important being, Crissy Howland, Jim O'Neil, and Jean Bowen. Two parents who make the play complete are Sylvia Bortner, as Mrs. Aldrich, and David Laird as Mr. Vecchitto. Helping in cafeteria i' '1 QR?
