THE TOOT Presented by THE CLASS OF 1947 Canastota High School Canastota, New York 1947 2 THE TOOT IViUcatiim We, the class of 1917, with more gratitude than we know how to express, dedicate this year book to Miss Florence Furfaro. Only by her patience and kindness, by her untiring and gracious efforts on our behalf, have we achieved success and harmony throughout our four years. Also we wish to thank Mrs. Fudesco, Miss Dunn, and Mrs. Brooks who so ably assisted her.

Yet it is more than that; it is the thoughts and ideas of future citizens of America; citi- zens who will hold our public offices, and shape our policies, foreign and domestic. Here, in their high-school yearbook, for the first time in their young careers, the gradua- ting class members can express themselves to their utmost ability. It is here that the mature citizen can rightly judge the younger generation. And, I believe this same mature citizen would have more faith in us, the younger generation, if he became aware of and sought out the values of our opinions and ideas. Does he not realize that we will live tomorrow by the decisions made today? In order to form well-rounded opinions and to make decisions, one must have an ed- ucation which touches the realms of not only textbooks, but those of public-speaking,dis- cussion of world affairs, mental and physical hygiene. We, the class of ’47 feel proud to say that we have had a well rounded pro- gram of such activities through the efforts of the faculty. Through our combined efforts we have accomplished this goal essential to law abiding, law making, and law enforcing citizens. Wherever the class of ’47 may seek its fortunes, it will carry with it the virtues and ideals taught it by its Alma Mater. Thus we hold this yearbook as a directory to the per- sonal lives of the students it represents; as good an introductory letter as one may find. It will be an introduction of the student to the public which will continue as long as he or she is willing to partake in the service of his fellow man. Here in this our yearbook, we, the Class of ’47 have assembled our fruitful years at C. H. S., our dances, our picnics, our activities. Now at its close we find it difficult to bid goodbye, to go our separate ways. We hold this same feeling for our faculty and the Board of Education to whom we now grate- fully give thanks for their thoughtful guid- ance and help. —BRUCE BURNS BOARD OF EDUCATION Claude B. Ellis, President Mrs. May C. Phillips James C. Grilli Donald Shuler Glen F. Bogardus, Clerk This year after twelve long years of hard work and loads of fun, we, the Class of ’47 leave our glorious Alma Mater. At this time we’d like to express our humblest appreciation and gratitude to the Board of Education, without whose guidance and assistance our success would have been impossible. This body of capable men and women toil ceaselessly behind the scenes of our school system for the betterment of educa- tion. For this they seek no reward. Once again we say “thanks”. —MARY TORNABENE THE TOOT FACULTY Back Row: Mr. L. Waldo, Mr. I.. Wright, Mr. I . Clary, Mr. W. Sharpe, Mr. D. R. McLean, Mr. G. F. Bogardus, Mr. W. Schmidt, Mr. G.

This was the future, now present, class of ’47. Of course, we were all enthralled at the thought, and liniment became a handy item to ease the stretched and strained necks. At our initial meeting, Mary Tornabene was elected President; Dick Tornatore, Vice President; Eugene Petrie, Treasurer; and Mary Guifre, Secretary. We chose the Talis- man Rose as our class flower and red and gold as class colors. Mrs. Fudesco and Miss Furfaro were class advisors. Initiation was held the third week of school and the fiend- ish Sophomores were delightfully pleased with us meek Freshmen. At the Freshman- Sophomore party following initiation, a truce of all parties concerned in the forerunning days was established. Along in March we had the distinction of having our class window put in; a distinction because tradition said we should wait in deep anxiety till a few years hence. Back to school we were now Sopho- mores under the leadership of Bob Borgog- noni, President; Dick Tornatore, Vice Pres- ident; Lucy Maula, Secretary; and Betty Miles, Treasurer. It was now our turn to “welcome” the Freshmen, which we did with open arms. A trade of books for fruit, that is! Later on we held the V-E Dance, starring the “Time-Wasters” with popular music. This was our first big financial suc- cess. Along in June we lost Charles Koch, and Flavio Palombi left us to join the Navy, to the fellows’ disapppointment (girls’ too.) Swiftly our Junior year came, bringing Eugene Petrie as President; Frank Crimi, Vice President; Mary Guifre, Secretary; and Mary Ann Setticase, Treasurer. This year we went into big business by selling hot dogs and programs at the football games and holding two successful dances. Slowly our treasury mounted into three figures. In May our rings came, and of course, were very conspicuous, as were we Juniors ourselves. Dolores Farnach was then secretary, as Mary Guifre left school. On April 26, the largest Junior event of the year was held, the Jun- ior Prom. For this event Bruce Burns and Mary Ann Setticase were chosen co-chair- men. It resulted in a big success for every- one, even us Juniors, as financial ends met. At the Junior-Senior picnic later on, a swell time was had by all. This year we had Miss Dunn as new advisor, in place of Mrs. Fu- desco who took a leave of absence. The clearing summer dust of 1946 found our class setting forth on their final year of fun and studies. We, as Seniors, of old C. H. S. chose Frank Crimi, President; Betty Hol- dridge, Vice President; Carol Bromfield, Sec- retary; and Eugene Petrie, Treasurer. Mrs. Brooks replaced Miss Dunn as advisor, due to Miss Dunn’s busy library schedule. In De- cember the Seniors and Sophomores spon- sored the Father Furfaro Choir from Syra- cuse, drawing a large audience of satisfied students and parents. Along in January, plans for the “Toot” were drawn up; with Bruce Burns as editor and Mary Tornabene as assistant editor. The advertising committee then canvassed the town for sponsors; while other committees made customary trips to the B-J office and to the photographer’s. Steadily time marched on. June appeared and the Senior Ball was planned. Everyone worried over final exams and finally experienced “the fidgets” on graduation day. The class of 1947 is now part of the a- lumni of C. H. S. Yet we will live again in memory many times over these carefree days. And while we reminisce, we shall (Continued on Page 41) THE TOOT TOOT STAFF Back Row: R. Borgognoni, YV. Schmidt, S. Pixley, B.

On the front page 1 found the announcement for which the whole world had been waiting. Bruce Burns, our newly elected president has ap- pointed Eugene Petrie as ambassador to La- tin America. Mr. Petrie has become famous for his fluency in speaking the Romance languages. In the “World Alfairs” column Frank Crimi, Secretary of State, is now in New York reporting to the United Nations on a startling discovery made by Ward Ramsdell, head of DuPont and his assistants Betty Holdridge and Mary Tornabene, who recently discovered synthetic oil. It seemed that most of my classmates had gained renown in the medical and scien- tific fields. Dick Tornatore has become a well known dentist in New York and Betty Moore, head of the Physical Therapy De- partment at Rochester Memorial hospital, is now employing a new treatment for infan- tile paralysis. The latest report from the New York State medical society says that the shortage of nurses in N. Y. has taken a big drop, pro- bably due to some of the greatest names ev- er entering the nursing profession, Dolores Farnach, Florence Ezzo, Dorothy Tackabury, Joan Phipps and Mary Ann Setticase. While turning the pages I noticed some brilliantly illustrated advertisements done by Charles Koch and Stella Stagnitti. Suddenly I saw the pictures of the secretaries who had just received positions in the Secretariat of the U. N.; Helen Schied, Betty Miles, Virgin- ia VanDusen, Ida DeFrancisco, and Elva Mae Pankhurst. Sam Tornatore has also been em- ployed by the U. N. as an accountant. On the front page of the sports section was a picture of Sam DeVencenzo, nationally known football coach, and an article on two eminent leaders in the field of physical edu- cation Bob Borgononi and Buster Schmidt. Scanning through the fine arts I found a landscape painting done by Luanna Love, comparable to those of Renoir and Monet. In the magazine section were colored photos of Audrey Cone and Jean Bortle modeling a summer wardrobe designed by Margaret Fratelli. The feature story of the week was “A Model Home”, planned and equipped by America’s homemakers; Edna Mason, Eve- lyn Merithew, Doris Simmons and Olive Smith. Norman Day headed names in the news with the title of “answer man.” You ask the question, Norman has an answer. Anita Fiore and Carol Bromfield have be- come very competent teachers with Carol specializing in pre-school teaching because of her “way” with children. Last but not least was a two page write-up on Joe Fisher's dairy farm, the largest in New York State. By the time I had finished reading a- bout all my classmates, I decided that the class of 1947 had really done its part in mak- ing a new and better world. —MADALYN YORTON Personnel Manager: “Don’t you have any recommendations from school?” Buster: “No—I tore them up.” Pers. Manager: “That was a silly thing to do.” Buster: “You wouldn’t say that if you had seen them”. Mr. Rynders: “How do bees dispose of their honey?” Freddy: “Cell it, don’t they?” THE TOOT 13 CLASS WILL We, the members of the Senior Class, Canastota High School, solemnly declare this our last will and testament on this 2Gth day of June in the year 1947.

The “steadies” seek each ouier out and converse in low tones in the auditorium. 8:12—The first bell sends the students re- luctantly to their home rooms, ready to start another day. 8:14—Joan Phipps and Frank Crimi hurry to their seats giving a worried glance at Mac. Luella Spratt can be seen sauntering toward the building not accelerating her pace one iota. 8:15—The second bell rings and classes be- gin. The majority of the seniors re- main in study hall doing the lessons that didn’t get done the night before. 8:20—Borgognoni arrives, having hitch-hik- ed a ride all the way from North Pe- terboro Street. 9:00—Second period begins. Half of the sen- ior class goes to Social Studies, the other half to English. The Shorthand I class plans to buy hearing aids to help them overcome the handicap of double gymnasium classes. 9:30—In Social Studies Norman Day is in- forming the class on some timely e- vent while Miss Mackey gives the as- signment, “Read the Encyclopedia Britannica and prepare an essay on Russia of not less than five thousand words.” Meanwhile across the hall in English the class receives the “Reader’s Di- gest” and begins work. 9:45—A small but willing trig class faces Miss Daniels. 10:30—The Seniors who were in English second period now go to Social Stud- ies and vice versa. In Social Studies Miss Mackey vainly tries to get Mary Tornabene and Betty Moore to talk louder while Bruce and Frank ex- change “funnies.” 11:15—And many seniors hurry to chemis- try. The rest of the class inquire a- bout gas masks, fearing the evil smelling concoctions that may re- sult. 11:30—Lab is interrupted when Fluff does the wrong thing again and lets out a Shriek. Miss Daniels restores order and the work goes on. 11:45—The study hall students start work- ing on schemes to get down to lunch early. 12:00—The classes head for their meals. For those who eat at school the motto seems to be, “To lead by a hair is to get a chair”, or “If no chairs are at hand, you’ll have to stand.” 12:30—Miss Burgett gathers the boys for boys’ chorus and drags Norman from the dance floor. 1:00—Classes are resumed. Most of the sen- iors have study hall. Miss Dunn pa- trols the library, waiting for a chance to send some luckless student back to study hall. 1:45—The senior boys head for health class, THE TOOT 17 while the girls remain in Miss Pow- 2:30—The end ers’ study hall. In health class, Miss which Schroth’s opening words are, “Now realize calm down” or “Buster do you want days, want to stay in this class?” of another day, too few of remain for the seniors.

THE TOOT VETERANS Back Row: V. Ramsdell, C. Graniero, E. Lawson. Front Row: I- Fiore, Miss Daniels, Carmen Cerio. This past year has seen the various col- leges of the nations filled with education- seeking veterans of World War II. Here in C. H. S. we have had our own group of veter- ans who have returned to high school to se- cure the knowledge they need to start them on their roads of life. They are Carmen Cerio, Chauncey Farnach, Carmen Graniero, Earl Lawson, Ward Ramsdell, and Louis Fiore. Each saw active duty in one or another of our nation’s armed forces. The subjects mqst sought by them have been mathematics, chemistry and physics. In each, they have adjusted themselves to the course as any junior or senior would, and have been absorbed into their classes as fel- low students, seeking the fruits of passing regents marks. Under the guidance of Miss Daniels, ma- thematics and science teacher, together with the entire C. H. S. staff, they have upheld the standards at C. H. S. We are happy to pay tribute to their success in obtaining the goals they seek. We are proud that we have been able to aid them and make them feel welcome at C. H. S. May their success be ever increas- ing from this day forward. —BRUCE BURNS 24 THE TOOT JUNIOR CLASS Rack Row: O. Warner, N. Fratini, W. Stanton, C. DeFazio, R. BaUlucci, F. I.omanaco. Fourth Row: S.

The class of ’48 began an eventful year by electing the following officers: President, Joyce Taylor; Vice President, Neal Haynes; Secretary, Mary Davis; Treasurer, Shirley Jones. In September we moved into Study Hall where we began to post our favorite pin-ups. We also had a successful class dance in that month. In January we received our class rings. During this month we sold 500 basket-ball pencils, the proceeds being used for Prom expenses. The assembly program put on by the Junior class in March was in the form of a talent show. Our big Junior Prom was held on April 11th. The theme was “The Carnival Circus” and our music was furnished by the Syra- cusans. The members of the Junior Class sincere- ly thank Miss Mackey and Miss Richardson for their help and counsel. —MARY DAVIS THE TOOT 25 SOPHOMORE CLASS tiMtfMIMl Back Row: C. Fercival, C. BIoss, E.

With an overflow of pep and energy, we the class of ’49 entered C. H. S. in the fall as Sophomores and looked forward to anoth- er active school year. At our first meeting in September, we elected the following officers: President Mi- chael Milmoe; Vice President, Nancy Burke; Secretary, Betty Lannis and Treasurer Dou- glas Chapman. Then according to custom, we initiated the Freshmen, plans for which were made during our second meeting. For three days, tortures we had decided on were carried out by the “Frosh”, and ended up with a black list assembly program. Our class window of gold with a blue crest was purchased later in the year and placed with the others. In September, a dance was held and at the annual Halloween party the Sophomores sold cider and donuts both of which helped to increase our treasury. The Sophomores and Seniors sponsored a Christmas concert late in December which was presented by Father Furfaro’s choir from Syracuse. Dues were collected throughout the year and meetings held occasionally. We would like to thank our advisors, Miss Daniels and Mr. Rynders for their very able assistance in guiding us through another year. —BETTY LANNIS 26 THE TOOT FRESHMAN CLASS T. DeFrancisco, I.

The third week of school the Sopho- mores had their fun, initiation, an event that will never be forgotten. We consoled our- selves with the thought that next year the fun would be ours. In October we had a successful dance and another in March. At our second meeting we selected our class flower, the red rose, and our class col- ors, green and gold. By collecting our monthly dues we bought our class window which was put up in January. This made us feel as though we were really a part of high school. We are greatly indebted to Miss Pow- ers, our class advisor, for her helpful advice. —DARRELL CONLEY Miss Mackey: “Can a woman ever become U. S.

The Student Council held its first meet- ing this year on October 30, 1946 and the fol- lowing officers were elected: President, Ra- chel Greiner; Vice President, Richard Tor- natore; Secretary-Treasurer, Mary Davis. It is the purpose of the Council to aid in the management of school activities. Rep- resentatives are elected by a vote of mem- bers of the classes and the various organiza- tions for a term of one year. The officers of the organization are elected by the members of the council. This year it was decided to have the regular meeting on the first and third Wed- nesdays of each month. The members also revised the Constitution. Mr. McLean as advisor, has aided the council very much with his advice and sug- gestions. —CAROL BROMFIELD EXTRA, EXTRA, READ ALL ABOUT TIIE LOCAL SWINDLE—TWO MEN ROB- BED ALREADY—POSSIBLY MORE LA- TER— Man walking along the street: “I’ll take one — Say, it doesn’t say anything about a swindle in this paper.” EXTRA, EXTRA, READ ALL ABOUT THE LOCAL SWINDLE—THREE MEN ROBBED ALREADY—MAYBE MORE LA- TER. 28 THE TOOT FOOTBALL Baol Row: I).

S. turned in a good season with four wins and three losses. Two of these losses were to our ancient rival, Oneida. The team got off to a bad start by los- ing the first game to Oneida, 8-6. Due to the ineligibility of some of the team, they did not have the power that they should have had. Following the first game with Oneida, the team journeyed to Lowville and defeated them 13-7. On the next Saturday the team met the strong Whitesboro team and the Red Raiders were defeated 26-0. From then on we defeated Cazenovia 19-6, Clinton 13-7 and pulverized Carthage 33-6. This brings us up to our rival Oneida, where on a wet field we were defeated 13-7. Due to the loss of Johnny Romagnoli, our left half back, because of injury in the second quarter, the team could not put on the power in the second half to defeat the Onei- da team. We led at half time, 7-16 but com- ing back in the second half they were too much for us, and scored again, winning 13-7. This year, the old coaching staff, George Rynders and Bill Sharpe back from the war, along with our head coach “Pinky” Schmidt, were able to mold together a good team. The team was composed of Johnny Romagnoli, Joe Spadter, Nazzie Fratini, Dick Tornatore, Donald Clark, “Doc” Vecchio, Vinnie DiGas- (Continued on Page 41) THE TOOT 29 BASKETBALL Rack Row: L. Ezzo, K.

Schmidtmen managed to win 7 and drop 7 and also capture 3rd place in the Tri-Valley League. In two exhibition games C. H. S. renew- ed its old rivalry with Fulton High school. Although losing both of them in these as well as in other games, the members of the team showed that they were no pushovers in these defeats. Coach Schmidt’s usual starting line-up was: Forwards, Charles De Fazio and Bob Borgognoni; Center, Buster Schmidt; guards Dick Tornatore and Nazzi Fratini. These starters were backed up by strong reserves which included E. Fratini, C. Barres, R. Johnson, S. Tornatore, L. Ezzo and R. Bal- ducci The high scoring honors went to sharp shooting Bus Schmidt who gathered in 217 points. The runner-up was Bob Borgognoni, who collected 142 points- Schmidt’s record of the season surpasses any scoring record of recent years. Although five of the team have played their final games for C. H. S. there are still five veterans with whom Coach Schmidt can mold a good team for the 1947-48 season. —ROBERT BORGOGNONI 30 THE TOOT BASEBALL Baca Row: M. Milnioe, R. Tornatore, Mr. Schmidt, K.

Despite very rainy weather which hin- dered the opening of the 1947 basball season for several weeks, we are finally able to give the record of the scores of a few games. Al- though the schedule calls for fourteen games the C. H. S. baseball team has been able to play only six. Playing under a handicap of inexperience, injuries, and lack of practice C. H. S. has managed to win only one of these six contests. This win was from Water- bille 4-3. In two games with Oneida C. H. S. dropped two but one was a heartbreaker in which we lost 1-0. The Canastota baseball team is again a member of the Tri-Valley league this year along with Cazenovia, Ham- ilton, Waterville, Oneida, Clinton and Sher- rill. Last season C. H. S. managed to pull down second position in the league standing. Because of much work on the muck- lands, many boys were unable to participate in this sport. About 16 reported to Coach Schmidt, who shifted them around to find the position best suited for each one. The team was composed as follows: Left field, J. Fisher! Center Field, G.

The Junior Varsity squad combined with the Varsity squad during the football season. The Junior Varsity Cheerleaders are: Vir- ginia Fratini, Josephine Rinaldo, Beverly Costanzo and Gloria Wright. We had an ac- tive season attending all the home games and the out of town games. New uniforms were purchased by the Varsity and Junior Varsity Cheerleaders at the beginning of the season. We had an active basketball season, at- tending a majority of the home and out-of- town games. We held meetings every Monday, Wed- nesday and Friday thruout the year. We started the season off with the tra- ditional pep rally. We held one dance which turned out to be successful. This will be the last year for Mary Tor- nabene and Florence Ezzo. New Varsity members to take their places will be elected next season. —FLORENCE EZZO Neighbor’s wife: “Why doesn’t your hus- band wear shirts with collars that fit him?” Object of discussion’s wife: “He hates to admit that he has a thick head and neck to match.” K.E.

The annual K. E. Ball was held on De- cember 27th. Mary Tornabene and Betty Hol- dridge were co-chairmen of the dance. Emil Cost’s orchestra furnished the music for a dance which was very successful. The t'heme was “Serenade in Blue.” During the year, K.

The band began the year by electing the following officers: President, Eugene Petrie; Vice President, Joyce Taylor; Secretary Mary Davis; Student Conductor, Rachel Greiner; Librarians, Phyllis Aquino and Nan- cy Burke; and Stage Managers, Ronald Lamb, Joe Fisher and Roy Fox. The band played and marched at the home football games. We also played during the winter months at the basketball games. At these games our six new twirlers per- formed. In November members were chosen to participate at the All-State-Band in Auburn Our main social of the year was a com- bined chorus and band Christmas party. In March members were chosen to repre- sent our band at the Select Concert in Caz- enovia. We attended the Madison County Music Festival at Hamilton on May 24. Here we played “One Beautiful Day” by Hildreth, “Lady of Spain” by Evans and a Bach Cho- rale. For a successful and eventful year the band gives thanks to our director, Professor Wright. —MARY DAVIS Rachel: “Don’t you think I got a perfect fit when I bought this hat?” Pete: “Fit?

Although we were very sorry to lose our former vocal teacher, Miss Elizabeth Do- miny last year, we have progressed famously under the able direction of our new director, Miss Phyllis Burgett. During the second semester, we elected some very capable officers, Joyce Taylor, President; Bruce Burns, Vice President; Gene Petrie Secretary-Treasurer; Mary Da- vis, Librarian and Rachel Greiner, Student Conductor. At the beginning of the year we started out with girls’ and boys’ glee clubs, but after much hard work, we put them together to form our mixed chorus. The first main event of the season was the presentation of portions of Handel’s Messiah at the Christmas Assembly. We were very fortunate to be joined by some of the C. H. S. Alumni, who graciously respon- ded to our invitation to sing with us. We’re happy to realize that this is becoming a tra- dition. In March some of us were chosen to go to Cazenovia and participate in a county- (Continued on Page 41) THE TOOT .‘57 DRAMATIC CLUB Back Row: YV. Devine, J. Dawley, B. Burns, E. Petrie, J. Fisher, N.

The Dramatic Club started this year off by electing the following officers: President, Bob Borgognoni; Vice president, Joyce Tay- lor; Secretary, Helen Hall; Treasurer, Mike Milmoe, Assistant treasurer, Robert Brom- field. In October the club held a party at which they initiated the new members. Games were played and refreshments were served. In December the club presented a three act comedy “Mr. Beane from Lima”. In April the club presented three 1-act plays “Skin Deep”, “High Window” and “Who Gets the Car Tonight?” The members of the club wish to thank Mrs. Courtney for her helpfulness thruout the year. —HELEN HALL THE TOOT 38 THESPIANS Back Row: R.

S. this year due to the fact that a large number of members graduated last June and only three Thespians remained in school in September. On May 5th, however, in a formal initia- tion nineteen new members were taken into the society. These were: Phyllis Aquino, Cole BIoss, Robert Borgognoni, Carol Bromfield, Robert Bromfield, Bruce Burns, Gerry Cox, Mary Davis, Norman Day, Shirley Farnam, Anita Fiore, Betty Moore, Lois Palmer, Eu- gene Petrie, Mary Ann Setticase, Luella Spratt, Barbara Simpson, Joyce Taylor, Hel- en Hall and Virginia VanDusen. To be eligible for membership, you must have ten credit points which are earned in the various fields of dramatics such as act- ing, directing, helping with properties, stage crew and makeup. It is our hope that next year the Club will perform again as an active unit with the help of our director Mrs. Courtney and those members who do not graduate this June. —MIKE MILMOE Two University fellows talking about a popular co-ed: I: What is that co-ed working for?” II: “MRS. degree.” THE TOOT :59 PHOTO CLUB In ’47 our first year of organization we elected the following officers: President, Robert Borgognoni; Vice President, Gerry Cox; Secretary, Shibley Pixley; Treasurer, Sara Laguzza. The “charter members” num- bered fourteen. During the basketball season we added to our treasury by selling ice cream and soft drinks at most of the games. We all worked hard trying not to eat up the profits. From this source, and from dues, we soon had e- nough money to purchase much of the nec- essary photographic equipment such as a printer, dryer, printing paper, chemicals and other accessories. It will be a significant day when our new enlarger arrives. Our ambition for next year will be to have a complete photographical sports history of the games at C. H. S. We wish to thank Mr. Sharpe and his agricultural classes for their excellent work on our darkroom, and Mr. Rynders for his helpful assistance and advice during the past year. —SHIBLEY PIXLEY Head juryman: “After hearing the evi- dence what do you think caused the fire?” Burgie (after he became a respected busi- nessman) : “Oh, I would say that it was fric- tion. Yep, friction between the insurance pol- icy and the mortgage.” 40 THE TOOT PRESS CLUB Back Row: C. Barres, E. Fratini, R. Tornatore, B. Schmidt, R. Borgognoni, J. Bonavcntura, J. Lu- carelli.

At this time, the club elected Flor- ence Ezzo, president; Michael Milmoe, Sec.- Treas. and Miss Schroth as Advisor. It was decided to edit a weekly school pa- per with gossip, news, quizzes, activities, hu- mor and sports. The first issue rolled off the press late in November with the following staff: Editor-in-Chief, Florence Ezzo; Busi- ness Manager, Robert Borgognoni; Circula- tion, Frank Crimi; Typing, Marianne Setti- case, Jean Bortle, Ida DeFrancisco; Mimeo- graph, Gene Fratini, Carmen Barres, Joe Bonaventura, Robert Capparelli, John Luc- carelli; Editorials, Madalyn Yorton, Mary Tornabene; News, Joe Bonaventure, William Schmidt; Sports, Mike Milmoe, Mike Masuc- ci; Gossip, Jean Bortle, Anita Fiore; Humor and Poetry, Robert Capparelli; Activities, Audrey Cone. A contest was held with C. H. S. stud- dents submitting entries to determine the name of the paper. The winner was “Whis- pering Pines” which was contributed by Bet- ty Holdridge. Meetings were held thruout the year and in January, the paper was changed to (Continued on Page 41) CLASS HISTORY (Continued from Page 7) THE TOOT BASEBALL (Continued from Page 30) 41 gratefully thank Miss Furfaro for her guid- ance and genuine interest in our successful activities, and Mrs. Brooks for her sincere cooperation.

Vito Fusillo, Joe Spadter, Bob Bor- gognoni, Frank Vecchio, Buddy Pankhurst and Gene Fratini saw plenty of action. This was the first year that our coach could take the line out and put other men in that were just as good. At our annual banquet, given to us by the Civic Club, Charles DeFazio was award- ed the Varsity C trophy for the most im- proved player. We also elected Sam Diven- cenzo as our captain. —BUSTER SCHMIDT K. E. SOCIETY (Continud from Page 33) pie in May. A dance followed at the High School.

Now that the school year has ended, we hope that the undergraduate members will carry on next year with greater success than during the past term- —MIKE MILMOE Cox; R. F., R. Johnson and R. Tornatore; 1st B., M. Milmoe; 2nd B. R. Capparelli; S. S., C. Barres; 3rd B. R. Borgognoni; Catch- ers, S. Divencenzo and B. Schmidt. The pitching department is the place where the weakness was shown. Only Nazi Fratini was left from 1946 and Coach Schmidt had to get relief pitchers. Other pit- chers were Eugene Fratini, Bus Schmidt, and R. Borgognoni. Although this season’s prospects may not look bright let us hope that next year C. H. S. with the aid of eight veterans of this year, will produce a winning combination. The scores up to the present are: Canastota—3 ................ Cazenovia—8 Canastota—1 ................ Cazenovia—9 Canastota—0 .................. Oneida—1 Canastota—5 .................. Oneida—9 Canastota—3 ................ Clinton—12 Canastota—4 ................ Waterville—3 CHORUS (Continued from Page 36) wide concert. The numbers included Cheru- bim Song, Lift Thine Eyes, Waltzing Matil- da, Strange Music and two Negro Spirituals. The May festival was another outstand- ing event. This time the whole chorus jour- neyed to Hamilton to hear and be heard by other choral groups. The highlight of the year, however, was the lovely Spring Concert.We were proud of the newly formed girls’ trio of Mary Davis, Rachel Greiner and Joyce Taylor. They cer- tainly scored a hit with “Clair de Lune” and their Jerome Kern medley. We would all like to express our ap- preciation to Miss Burgett for a wonderful year and we hope that she will remain with us and that she enjoyed working with us as much as w e enjoyed having her. —BARBARA SIMPSON 42 THE TOOT SPONSORS The Class of 1947 wishes to thank each and every sponsor without whose help this yearbook could not have been presented.
