WHEN WE WERE FRESHMEN In September, our serious class organized, electing the following officers: President, Mary Kounas: Vice Pfesident, Barton Smith, Secretary, Io Ann Lampep Treasurer, Girard Frank. We chose Mr. Stuart Wessing as our ad- visor. To start the activity ball rolling, we held a scavenger hunt. Next came the exciting Green Ball in Ianuary. In May, we obtained a sideshow conces- sion at the Penny Carnival. SOPHOMORE At our first meeting, we choose George Vosburgh as President, Marjorie Gore as Vice President, Henry Rodgers as Secretary: and Treasurer, Girard Frank. Confident of our ability, we organized the first dance of the year, coming through with a novel barn dance. We did not rest on our laurels, however, but planned for a bigger and better Christmas dance. With a lighted tree in the center of the gym and the whole place decorated with tinsel, it more than lived up to expectations. Big event of the year was our own Penny Camival in May, willed to us by the Class of '40. Surprise of the year was the winning of the second prize in the Fourth of Iuly float contest. IUNIORS By now full of worldly wisdom, we elected Mary Kounas as the President: lack Anthony as Vice President, Ethel Chadsey, Secretary: and Barton Smith, Treasurer. Again we obtained the first dance of the yearn Long-awaited dream of our Iunior rings began to materialize in November. Amidst prayers that our rings would arrive in time for our Christmas stockings, we managed to sell holiday wreaths and cones. Iack Anthony moved to Utica and Bill Wells took his place as Vice President. In March we began to plan eagerly for the Iunior Prom. Easter vacation came after an eternity of waiting and with it the Prom-brecrthtakingly beautiful. Class Night in Iune and we Juniors marched down the aisle, feeling young and envious of the smooth Seniors. SENIORS Realizing that this was the most important year of our school careers, we thoughtfully elected the following officers: President, Barton Smith: Vice Presi- dent, George Vosburghp Recording Secretary, Charles Crocker, Corresponding Secretary, Ethel Chadseyg Treasurer, Mary Kounas. Mr. Wessing, who had stood by us for the years, was replaced as' our advisor by Mr. Robert Coon. Following our custom, we held the first annual dance in September. Soon, we were head over heels in work on our Senior Play. The big day, November twentieth, came and Senior Stars played to Canaioharie's appreciative first nighters . Mr. Vemer Shafer was choosen to replace Mr. Coon who left for the army. The Senior Ball will be held come rain or shine. We are praying that fate will be kind concerning our Senior Trip. 16
