P«£SfflT£0 By TH£ juniofi flno stmofi classes BOLIVAR CEIlTRflL SCHOOL BOLIVAR IIE III yOAK 1947-1948 FOREWORD OUR days in Bolivar Central School have been so overcrowded with various events that we wish to set them down in the annals of our school to be witnessed and remembered for years to come. Throughout our school life we have encountered days of joy, excitement, achievement and happiness, this record of which we hope may help the Juniors and Seniors of the future to enjoy as happy a school life as we have in our beloved Alma Mater . W. CECIL DAVIS WE BELIEVE that we are very fortunate to have as our principal Mr. W. C. Davis. Although Mr. Davis has been with us for only two years, he has helped very much to lift our school into the ranks of The Best' . Mr. Davis has been a high school teacher, college professor, and he has brought himself to Bolivar to lend his great knowledge to the promotion of education in our school. Besides being a help to the promotion of the school, Mr. Davis has been very instrumental in guiding the present Juniors and Seniors to their fine standing in our community. For these reasons we feel indebted to him and wish to dedicate our Gusher'' to him. RUTH E. MILLER WITH Mr. Davis we feel greatly indebted to another member of our school. This could be none other than Mrs. Ruth Miller, high school secretary, advisor and friend. Mrs. Miller has been with us since the present seniors were in the first grade. She has never been too busy to help some one out, although she is always very pressed for time. Whenever one is in trouble or needs advice, Mrs. Miller is always there ready to help out. We feel that she belongs with Mr. Davis on this, our page of dedication.

CHILDS SENIOR HISTORY IN 1943 we began our high school career as verdant Freshmen. President and Vice-President for this year were Phil Morrison and Mary Lou Fox. We were wisely counseled on the duties of high school students by our class advisor, Miss Marjorie Cornell. Miss Cornell left us in the middle of the year and we honored her at a farewell dinner given in the school cafeteria. Mrs. Woodin was then elected as our advisor for the remainder of the term. On Valentine Day our class held an informal dance which was the social highlight of our Freshman year. This dance made history because it was the first one ever held in B. C. S. by a Freshman class. We also packed waste papers to be sold to the government to aid in the emergency paper drive. Thus ended the first successful high school year for the class of '47. We faced being Sophomores with high hopes and ambitions. Miss Eberl was class advisor and she is to be commended for a job well done. The President and Vice-President were Wayne Elliott and Shirley Walters. Due to the fact that our country was still involved in World War II, many of our social activities were curtailed. However, the class had a weiner roast which was a great success. Each week every member of the class purchased War Saving Stamps and contributed to the Red Cross and other war activities. Many of us volunteered to roll bandages and pack boxes for servicemen overseas. This year was brought to an eventful close by a picnic at Cuba Lake. Our Junior year added many more successful events to our already impressive list. Class officers included Phil Morrison, President; Craig Pllatt, Vice-President; Mary Lou Fox, Secretary, and Anna Italiano, Treasurer. Miss Lewis was elected as class advisor. The first part of the year was spent in earning money in preparation for the many class activities of the second term. The Junior-Senior Prom was held on February 15, 1946, with beautiful and unusual decorations. It was an event long to be remembered by all who attended. The J unior Play, One Mad Night, under the direction of Mr. Louis Coplai, was presented April 4. The play was a mystery farce of three acts and was immensely enjoyed by the public. The tank fight between the Junior and Senior boys was the next event with the Juniors emerging victorious. This was followed by the Junior-Senior banquet. The theme was baseball, with Craig Platt acting as toastmaster. It proved to be another hit for our class. Our very successful Junior year kindled high ambitions with which to start our final year. To lead us this year we chose for officers, Marjorie Presher, President; Malcolm Claflin, Vice-President; and Janet Foster, Secretary-Treasurer. Mr. McMahon was elected class advisor. A Hallowe'en skating party opened our social season. In order to aid the Gusher fund, Miss Lewis assisted us in presenting a repeat performance of our Junior Play, One Mad Night, at Portville. The Senior Play, the Junior-Senior Prom, the traditional tank fight and the banquet completed our memorable school years which we feel have prepared us for our great burdens and responsibilities of this Atomic Age.

As the first seventh grade class to participate in Moving Up Day ceremonies, we felt extremely proud and very intelligent. When we moved on to the eighth grade, we really began to feel apprehension at the thought of entering our high school career. As the class of '48, we breezed'' into high school as typical green freshmen and with the reputation of being king of all silly and carefree freshmen. The brightest event of our introductory year was our semi-formal St. Pat's dance. This was a big success and inspired us to attempt bigger and better things To lead us through this merry year we elected Gale Morrison. President; Bob Cos-saboon, Vice-President; Jane Sawyer, Secretary, and Freddie Dunshie, Treasurer. For class advisor we chose Mrs. Cedric Tiebout, the former Miss Mary Kay Dougherty. Our Sophomore year found us somewhat accustomed to the routine of high school, but none the less eager to meet the challenge. We carried on the tradition of St. Pat by sponsoring an informal St. Pat's dance. This was not so much a financial success as it was a social event. To guide us this year we elected Bernard Tower, President; Bob Cossaboon, Vice-President; Dolores Ingalls, Secretary, and Barbara Eberl, Treasurer. Mrs. Rice was elected class advisor. With the arrival of our Junior year, raising money seemed to be the prime issue. The St. Pat tradition was abolished in favor of money-making projects. On October 25, we sponsored a round and square dance which was well attended. To augment our treasury in preparation for such events as the Junior-Senior Prom, Gusher , and Junior-Senior banquet, we held a skating party which was very successful. Officers for this year include Norma Lewis, President; Ted Crandall, Vice-President; Jerry Hun-gerford, Secretary, and Wesley Stimson, Treasurer. Mrs. Rice was unanimously re-elected class advisor. To her with a deep feeling of gratitude and acknowledgement, we wish to take this opportunity to say, Thanks for two years of rendering good advice and having such patience. With eagerness to be on our way and to make our place in the world, but yet with some nostalgic regret, we face our Senior year with the hope that it will be as rich and full as the preceding three years have been.

In our Freshmen year we accomplished little with the exception of our class play, Mixed Dates . This was our assembly program for the year. We had lots of fun and if went over quite well. We also made some money by the few dime dances we had. In June, as we took the Soph, ribbons on Moving-Up Day we realized we were no longer the Freshmen of high school. We were Sophomores and we wanted to make people know it and be proud of it. This past year as Sophomores we were able to boast of several of our boys being outstanding players on the J.V. basketball team. We were also proud of our honor students, who were good at their studies and good class workers. In chorus we were represented by many Sophomores. We also had a student in the girls trio and many students in the band. We started last year to build up our class treasury. We collected class dues with which we had a skating party. The committees for the party worked hard and we succeeded in making enough money to build our treasury up. With this money we held a dance and many other social events. ’50 CLASS HISTORY The Freshmen class of 46-47 had many dime dances after basketball games. The money taken in went into the class treasury and will be used in our future years in high school toward dances and parties. The Freshmen class advisor was Coach Milt Latimer, who in our first year in high school, helped us make many important decisions. Our class hopes that in future years it will be as successful a class as those that have gone before us. ’51 CLASS HISTORY The eighth grade of Bolivar Central School is more advanced than many of the eighth grades which have followed it. We have more privileges, in some cases than does the high school. Our class has a total of 70 students. This is a great deal more than many of the preceding classes. Each month we elected guides who choose students to assist in different activities that have helped to make the eighth grade a success. In the line of recreation we have participated in dime dances, basketball games, musical assemblies, and many other social events. The faculty arranged a system by which the students could take a course which included electives. This privilege made us feel a great deal more like high school students. With all these advantages we believe, along with the high school faculty, that that our years as upper classmen will come much easier.

The officers of the Junior High Student Council were: Helene Shaner, president: Herbert Claflin, vice-president; Mary Lou Bush, secretary; and Dick Wainman, treasurer. The other members were Ann Thorwart, Sandra Almy, Sally O'Hara, Ronald Schnettler, Joe Codispoti, and Jim Schnettler. The Student Council sponsored four dime dances and gave a Valentine Party. They were all successful. In basketball both girls and boys had noon games. The boys also had a Saturday morning league. Our seventh grade boys played five games with other schools. They won all five games. Each seventh grade had an assembly program for the school. We also had the privilege of having other schools entertain us at assemblies. We had the great pleasure of going to a concert in Olean given by the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. The first of the year we enjoyed having Art. The last half of the year we were able to have music. We had a Junior Choir and an Orchestra which were both very successful. In shop the boys made mallets. In homemaking the girls learned to sew. We all like Junior High School and the Student Council did much to make this past year very enjoyable.

There are approximately eighteen members who assemble once a month to hold meetings conducted in Spanish. The officers elected this year include, Jane Sawyer, President; Jean Faulkner, Vice-President; Janis Cotter, Secretary, and Eugene Best, Treasurer. A Christmas party was held at which the Spanish custom of receiving a pirnata was enjoyed. Letters to South American students have been written and interesting replies have been received by club members. If arrangements can be made, the club hopes to attend a Spanish program in Buffalo sometime this spring. This is the first modern language club ever organized in B. C. S. and has provided an interesting activity for all Spanish students. TOP ROW — L. Windus. C. Platt. SECOND ROW — M. Shaner. N. Ressler, J. Hungerford. M. Miller, C. Ryan. THIRD ROW — M. Hughes, M.

TOM DUNN DICK DONNELEY - TOM BLISS - ROBERTA HIBBARD Under the direction of Mr. Burdick, the Senior play of 1947 was staged with outstanding results. Some comments were that it was one of the best plays ever witnessed in Bolivar Central School. Comments such as these should make the members of the play cast feel very proud. The play was very realistic and different from the ordinary type of comedy. The characters were all grown people and therefore the parts were very difficult to learn. However this seemed to push the cast ail the more. When Nothing But the Truth was put on the stage it met with overwhelming success and its cast and director should all be congratulated.

This exciting mystery concerned the humorous adventures of Don Cutter, a young playwright, in an old haunted mansion where the evil Dr. Bunn and his insane patients were staying. Don discovered that the doctor and scheming Artemus Burke were detaining wealthy Lucille Marcy for ransom. Before Don could help her, his fiancee arrived from New York accompanied by her mother. To add to the confusion, the notorious murder, Danny Silletto, arrived to take over the mansion as a hiding place. The exciting climax proved Silletto to be a friend of Don's and succeeded in bringing about Don's marriage to Lucille. One Mad Night became a great success through Mr. Coplai's interest and broad experience in play directing. It was so popular with the cast that a repeat performance was given at Portville this spring. Ann Nicholson as Gertrude and Mary Jane Warner as Princilla are to be commended on their excellent work in helping the original cast make this performance as great a success as the first presentation. ’47 JUNIOR PLAY A DATE JUDY FOSTER - JANIS COTTER MRS.

DOROTHY KROH On April 24, 1947 the Juniors of B.C.S. presented the play, A Date with Judy , adapted from the humorous radio version of the same name. The play was a great success, due to the fine direction of Mrs. Kroh. The play concerned teen-agers and the plot centered around Judy's efforts to raise enough money to become queen of the dance her club is sponsoring. In her efforts to accomplish this she enters a variety of contests, submitting the names of other people. The comedy went full swing when the maid received a can of shortening, Judy's brother, a bag of Carnation Fertilizer , and her mother, 24 bottles of Glint-O the hair dye for lively ladies. Judy's attempts to remedy the situation only seemed to complicate matters. In spite of Judy’s campaigning, she lost the contest to Tootsie Whiteman. At the last minute, though, Tootsie got the hives, and as Judy was next in line to be queen, she went gaily off to the dance with Oogie. TOP ROW — D. Shaner, T. Bliss, P. Morrison, D. Holland, V.

Officers elected were Dave Dunshie, President; George Case, Vice-President; Bruce Torry, Secretary; Bob Clark, Treasurer; Allan Faulkner, Sentinel, and George Faulkner, Reporter. Mr. Vincent Davis serves as advisor to the organization. The most important of the many activities sponsored by the F.F.A. was their regular appearance at the basketball games, selling pop and popcorn. On February 13, a spaghetti dinner was enjoyed by the members at the Alcove in Olean. A skating party on March 24 was their next venture, and it proved successful. Arrangements are being made for a Father and Son banquet to be held this spring. TOP ROW — G. Case. B. Clark. B. Torrey, G. George. D. Dunshie. BOTTOM ROW — A. Faulkner. R. Jordan. W. Torrey. F.

It offers an ideal opportunity for younger students to increase their musical knowledge in preparation for high school organizations. This year s group consists of twenty-two students with many beginners included. A new idea is being put into effect this year, which is the combination of this group with the Richburg school orchestra. By hard practice and effort, this combined organization will undoubtedly become one of our foremost musical groups. It is hoped they can attend the spring music festival at Alfred-Almond this year, where we are certain they will attain a good reputation for both themselves and our school. SITTING — Antia Clevelli.

The score was sung by a group of approximately thirty voices chosen by the director, Miss Yolanda Questa. The soloists were Mary Hughes and Dean Holland. An organ was donated for the occasion by St. Bonaventure College and was capably played by Janet Foster. The story was narrated by Jerry Codispoti, during which the scenes were reenacted on the stage in patomime. Mary was portrayed by Gale Morrison; and Joseph by Tom Dunn. The Pageant was divided into four parts: The Prophecy, The Nativity, The Adoration of the Magi and The Eternal Manger. The choir, off-stage, sang between narrations. It is sincerely wished by everyone that a program of this nature be presented every year at the Christmas season. CHEERLEADERS The Varsity and J. V. cheerleaders of 1946-47, selected by a faculty of five, participated in two seasons of exciting games. TOP—B. Holland. M. Cotter. A. Jandrew. BOTTOM — B. Nicholson. B. Wickham. N. Lewis. J.

The Bulldogs on the gridiron, were under the handicap of inexperience. Very few lettermen returned to the squad from the 45 season. However under a very able coach and the urge to win and play a good game, the Bulldogs developed a good, clean, fast team. The spirit of the team aroused a kind of spirit in the school which has never been known before. The team was backed by a body of excited students, also with that urge to win. Once this is established, championship teams are much easier to develop. The following boys will be absent from next year’s lineup: Holland, D., co-captain; Cummings, T., co-captain; Morrison, P.; Elliott, W.; Case, B.; Shaner, D.; Shaner, K.; Smith, D.; Stimson, J.; Tower, L.

During Coach Milt Latimer's first year as head coach at Bolivar, the basketball team gave him a wonderful record of I I wins out of 16 games. At the beginning of the season things didn't look too well. The squad had thinned out considerably from last year. The only two regulars from the previous season were Cossaboon and Holland (captain). With this material Coach Latimer drove the boys until they had enough spark to go after what they wanted. This and the wonderful spirit of the high school pushed the boys to the following record. The boys leaving the team this year will be: Morrison, Captain Holland, Shaner, Cummings, and Case.

Once again baseball is coming back to Bolivar Central School. There is a dearth of experienced material because of the number of years in which the game has been absent from this high school. However it is hoped that more boys will try out and improve themselves. Eventually better teams will develop and baseball will be as popular in Bolivar as are the other major sports.

Don't worry too much about Mr. Lowest Price — his proposition glitters only at first glance. Buyers of printing seldom are fooled by him more than once. He spikes his own game with the delivery of the job— in fact, he gives the show away with the very first proof . . . Remember: the salesman who sells brains and craftsmanship, who can create good selling ideas and put them on paper, has no competition from the out-and-out price cutter.
