THE TOOT 25 DEAR STEWDENZ:- 1944-45 has been a busy year at good ole CHS. Here are some of the highlights of the term. —CHS— We began the semester Sept. 8th, and in the second week Miss Parker and Miss Fra- denburg, the Crane cadets came. Everybody carried their map rolls; the seniors gave a dance that was a financial success; stewdenz decorated their desks; and the football team began practicing. The freshmen were initiat- ed, and they gave the black list assembly. All classes elected their officers; the juniors or- dered their rings and Dick Tracy caught the Brow and Gravel Gertie. —CHS— In October we played a tie game with Ham- ilton, had a day off while the teachers went to their conference; enrolled to “vote” in the national election; had a peppy rally that the cheerleaders organized and cleaned the tro- phy case. We had Columbus Day off; the band marched in their bright clean uniforms; and a fellow climbed the flagpole to put a new rope on the pulleys. The girls formed the Do- deca and the fellows the quartet; we initiat- ed the 10c lunch plan; and the girls had their physicals. We played Fulton in their park on Lake Ne-ah-ta-want-ta, went to the Oneida- Canastota game; War Correspondent Dunkan was killed in “Terry and the Pirates”; Mrs. Reeder came. —CHS— In November Thomas Randle, Harry Tur- ner and Earl Wilde auctioned off all the good food at the big bond rally. Amilita Grilli bought the biggest bond and M. L. Farr got a lb of butter for a $500 bond. We sold over $10,000 worth of bonds and stamps in all. The fall concert was held; we had a Sadie Haw- kins dance; ten-weeks tests came along; the cadets went back to school; the teacher’s room was redecorated; Robert Capparelli won a “Quiz Kid” radio; Miss Rosekrans and Miss Kinney came; Carmen Cerio hurt his foot; Jan Gleason and Pat Milmoe went to K. E. Convention and the girls played volley ball after school. —CHS— In December “Figure It Out” was held and we sold $31,025 in war bonds; the squander- bugs stole the show, the Art Dept, did all the scenery for it. Basketball practice began, and school closed ’cause of storms; Betty Davis was chairman of the K. E. Ball; alpine sweaters were the rage; all good stewdenz sent their letters to Santa; the Phoenix Club, the Crane chorus sang for us; everyone was full of Christmas spirit and the Glee Club presented the “Messiah”. —CHS— We began the new year with no school for it was storming, remember? Mrs. Prof, came to see us; Harv Stocker was leader of the Wolf Patrol; Swing Band rehearsed for their first dance, Mr. Clary came to us; Miss Dom- iny received her Master’s; K. E. elected offi- cers; we polished off midterms. —CHS— In February we had two weeks off because of the coal shortage and storms; the two ca- dets went back; Saturday night dances were cancelled; the fellows played Morrisville; we spent quiet evenings at home because every- thing was closed; Freddie Parks went in the Navy; the brown-out went into effect; Jerry had his appendix out; girls took over their brother’s plaid shirts; seniors ordered their calling cards; we all saw “Wilson” and we played three basketball games in one week. —CHS— In March the chemistry classes made hy- drogen sulphide (Rotten eggs); Beverly de- monstrated her lipstick; no on the cuff lunches in the cafeteria; Pepsi Cola announc- ed their exam; Lt. Rynders came to see us; Cerio and Bob Mott left to join the Navy; (Continued on Page 40)
