V Name Address I Senior Annual Central School Belleville New York Phila Butler Bowman Smith There s a place we call Old Union-- A spot our hearts hold dear, Though our feet in paths afar from her may roam; There s a hand outstretched to point us To ways of truth and right, There’s a loving voice that calls her children home Chorus :fl UnionV Then hail to thee'r'Gld Though we be far or neatf, Our hearts will or yeti art our mother - Thy loving precepts ever Inspire our souls to right; We may leave thee, but We never can forget.

Chapman who has taught science and mathematics in this school continuously since January 1923- Mrs. Chapman has been quick to volunteer her efforts and to give generously of her out of school time. Her cheerful and cooperative attitude in her school associations is a valued asset• Not only has she been the advisor to the freshman class for many years, but she has also given helpful suggestions to many older students when they were planning their futures. Active in organizing and guiding our student council, court and patrol, she has the ability to see situations clearly and to state definite opinions. In dedicating-this annual to Mrs. Chapman we wish to express our appreciation of her many years of faithful, conscientious and efficient service to this school. 5 Then hail to thee. Old Union, Though we be far or near, Our hearts will cry Thou art our Mother yeti How very aptly do these words express the true sentiments of their writer, Phila Butler Bowman Smith, throughout her own life. The fourth daughter of a family of nine girls and one boy, Phila Butler came from Chestnut Ridge by horse and buggy, in 1887 to study at Old Union, then a private hoarding school. Her genial disposition and intense interest In the Sibylline Society of which she was the second president won her many lifelong friends. After graduating with the famous class of 1892, she never failed to return for class reunions at Commencement time and for the Decennial Reunion in 1902 she wrote the following lines honoring her Alma Mater: Oh tender Mother, once again, in thy beloved walls Our footsteps Joy to wander, while our laughter thrills thy halls, So dear to us, so kind to us, in days that now are past. We come to speak of loving thoughts that will forever last. When, in 1905, she returned to make her home at Union Academy as the wife of the Principal, Robert W. Bowman, her hospitality and ever graciour personality endeared her to the entire student body. In later yeers when her interests became many and varied. Her affection for Old Union remained constant. At the time of the burn- ing of Union Academy, Phila Butler Bowman again took up her pen in the following tribute to the Bell-Tower, the last vestige of the old school. I stand the sentinel, my feet today Amid the ashes yesterday my pride. I stand and call with every passing hour Flame cannot wholly wreck--Love must abide. I am the Tower. The flames have left me here To speak for thee each hour in trumpet-tone She is thy Mother, and she is not dead I Rebuild her temple I Rear again her throne I I am the sentinel. The village sleeps. The old church spires their shadows fling afar. The wind is hushed. Soft snows heal all thy wounds. And through the broken portal, Lo, a starl Later, In 19 2, w en her clans celebrated their Fiftieth Reunion they paid homage to her memor y, for she lives in the hearts of her many classmates and loving friends. And the Class of 1951 wish to express the'r sincere trubute to Phila Butler Bowmen Smith by making The Alma Mater the theme of their Senior Annuel, The Tower of 1951 6 Senior Officers In 1947, twenty-eight, frisky, fresnman bounded into the lab, where lira. Chapman was awaiting us. Learning to settle down was quite hard for seat of us who had trouble deciding what subjects to take. Uaida Hedger left us the first of December to go to Morris- wille. We gained Maida back also Richard Woodall in our Sophomore year but lost Doris Cunnings, Phyllis Clark, and Michael Zehr. Mr. Barnard was our home room teacher and at our class party we met his fiancee. Proa the Junior room we lost Doris Parker, Sylvia Garbutt, Glenna D inmock, and Duane Oms by, but gained Edward Niebuhr and Doris Cummings. We were Jolly Juniors but Mr. Bellinger settled us down. Our first exciting event was in November when we had a terrible time deciding on a ring. While we were planning our special event of the year, our May Dance, our rings came. This fall we cams to Mrs. Eastman s Senior room. Here we gained Stuart MacDuffie but lost Richard Woodall, who Joined the Air Porce. Some of the ways that we are earning money are: dances, selling refreshments at our home basketball games, and the Senior play, Aunt Tillie Goes to Sea. Lately, we have been working on the Yearbook, but we are looking forward to Commencement in June. 7 Seniors Barbara J. Brown BARB” ’’ .here there is a will there is a way” Glee Club 1,3 1 .

That night she spent her evening at Radio City hall, as a guest of Don Harris, the famous Uke player. The next day she visited the A P Lab where Terry Kohl was the official food tester. On her way to the train she happened to run into Carolyn Williams, who is governess of John D. Rockefeller's grandchildren. Arriving in Washington she visited Rosamond Ebdon, who is now the President's wife. While reading the paper at the President's home, she noticed that Doris Cummings had been chosen as the All-American softball player for the year. By the next day, Mrs. Eastman traveled to Chicago to visit Madeline Kellar who now owns a large Bowling Alley. While in Chicago, she visited the Vaudeville acts in one of the theaters. One of the main attractions was the Champion Weight Lifter of the World which was, of course, Eleanor Kohl. Another main attraction was the Worlds' Famous Cartoonist, Kay Saunders. Marilyn Otis was starred as the Fat Woman. That night she stayed at Beverly Veley's home. Beverly is now noted for her ability to make false teeth. Mrs. Eastman then went to Kentucky where she visited Stuart MacDuffie who is raising hops as a moonshiner. A day later, we find Mrs. Eastman in California watching the world's most famous Hell Drivers performer, who is, of course. Jack Gillette. At night she watched the Great Gildersleeve perform on television. Little did she know that it was Dick Corron who was substituting the Great Gildersleeve'3 laugh. She also watched LeRoy White play the bass drum in Phil Spitalny's All Girl Orchestra. That night she stayed at Frances Eastman's house. Frances is now married to a movie star and has five children. The next day Mrs. Eastman went to Texas to see Barbara Brown who is an Air Force Hostess. The reason for this is that she had to keep an eye on Paul. Before leaving she met Frances Mull in on the street selling pop corn. Frances said that her senior class always made a lot of money that way, so she thought she would try it. She then took a plane to Moscow, Russia. In Russia she found Howard Hodge arguing with Stalin over the European problems. Before leaving Russia, she met Charles VanBrocklin wandering on the streets with a large box in his hands. He was asking everybody he saw what The Thing was. She then went to Italy to see Maida Hedger. Maida was making her living as a jockey in the Plug Horse Races. From Italy she went to Paris to see Joyce Flagg and Phyllis Pulton perform on the stage. Joyce was a ballet dancer and Phyllis was a strong girl in an acrobatic trio. From Paris she took a train to LeHarve where she took a boat to New York. On the boat she met Charlene Golding still colored as a maid. She liked her part in the senior play so well she made it her future. In New York she took a train back home to Belleville, New York. 12 We, the class of ’51, ’Pon leaving school and all the fun, Take up our pen and start to write, And put this down in black and white, And put this down in black and white, So, after we have gone to rest, We may have fulfilled our last request. We know our inventory’s small, But we’ve included one and all. To THE BOARD OF EDUCATION and THE FACULTY we leave headache pills and nerve medicine along with our gratitude and best wishes for a quick recovery from us during the summer months. To OUR PARENTS goes our whole-hearted thanks for all you have done to provide us with an education and our promise that we will try to use it to its best advantage. To THE JUNIOR CLASS we leave the honor and prestige of being Seniors and our own uncanny knack for skipping school. To THE UNDER-CLASSMEN we leave all of our hidden talents (providing you can find them!) TO: BEVERLY BURLEY we leave Richard Corron’s loud cackle so folks will know she’s around. CHARLOTTE DAVIS we leave Beverly Veley’s success in sticking to one man. CLYDE DUDLEY we leave Don Harris’s easy line of chatter. BARBARA FLITCROFT we leave Frances Eastman’s giggle. WILLIAM FARMAN we leave Barbara Brown’s artistic ability so he can design posters next year. JAMES FLEMMING we leave Carolyn’s graceful walk. CAROL HARMER we leave Charlene Golding’s quiet, studious ways. PATRICIA HUBBARD we leave Joyce Flagg’s typewriter to be used on next year’s “TOWER”. MARY LYNN JAMES we leave Rosamond Ebdon’s dimples. HELEN NOHLE we leave Stewart Mac Duffie’s singing talents. CLAUDE POOR we leave Maida Hedger’s correspondence tools so he can keep in touch with Margaret next year. JUNE REED we leave Marilyn Otis’s place in the sports field. DORENE SIDMORE we leave Eleanor Kohl’s and Phyllis Fulton’s extra pounds. LEWGENE THOMAS we leave Howard Hodge’s and Terry Kohl’s height. JOANNE WETTERHAHN we leave Edward Niebuhr’s talent for flirting. JANE WHELLER we leave Kay Saunders’s smiling face and Charles Van Brocklin’s “happy-go-lucky” charm. JUNE WHELLER we leave Madeline Kellar’s slender figure. WALLACE WHITLEY we leave Jack Gillette’s “John-L-Lewis frown and Leroy White’s physique so people will think he’s tough. JANICE WILLIAMS we leave Frances Mullin’s bashful smile. BETTY YOUNG we leave Doris Cummings’s shy, retiring manner. We aren’t as sane as we might be, With failing mind and memory, But since we haven’t too much time. Our witnesses now will sign ■ 14 Senior Play The class of 51 presented a farce entitled Aunt Tillie Goes To Sea on Not. 17 18. This play written by Wilbur Braun and directed by Mrs. Eastman drew an ower whelming crowd both nights, thus scoring a financial success. The cast of characters was carefully selected and each played his part exceptionally well. Jinx Jackson, Charlene Golding, was the stout colored ship's maid. With her haughty laugh and carefree frolics brought out the comedy of the play. Daniel Doom, Terry Kohl was the steward. Dr. and Evangeline Fischer brought many laughs, for Ferdinand, Don Harris was the poor hen-pecked husband of Phyllis Fulton. Bette Barbour, Eleanor Kohl was a beautiful girl who had taken a fancy to the ships News fleporter Be mi® Oakie, Jack Gillette. Luther Lorrimer, Eddie Niebuhr, was made very sad for Aunt Tillie, Maida Hedger, Just wouldn't let him alone. Mrs. Pamale Tucker, Kay Saunders, and Mr. Mervin Tucker, Howard Hodge, weren't so gay indeed, because fate Just wouldn't let them be together. Thought faithful to her boss, Sylvia Frayne, Joyce Flagg, was a little doubtful about her boss's actions. Lucinda Talbot, Bev Veley, our striving beauty tries to gain her husband through pineapples. But it all ends happily with Aunt Tillie Trask still an old maid. Let us not forget the faithful crew, without whom there would have been no scenery or props j 15 Here we laid foundations lowly 9 Beneath thy watchful eye, For the tenoles that in- mortal shall ariso. 16 Juniors Wheller, Flitcroft, Young, Whitley, Hubbard, Nohle, Sidmore Reed, Poor, Harmer, Mr. Bellinger, Williams, Dudley, Wetterhahn Sophomore Couch, Littlefield, Hyde, Ja-es, Hutchinson, .Theadon, Hudson, Bovoo Clarke, .Vagorn, Herrick, Boyd, Fulkerson, Farman, Thonas Chitiey, Cook, Reed, Burley, 3n-sley, Ro er3, Pelton 01 Connell, Elmer, Herron, f'i33 Lerch, Pepper, Fle-T-’.nc, . holler Absentees: Trevett, Stone, Tice 1?
