Miles, On entering High School in September 1946, we elected the following class officers: President, Betty LeBlanc; Vice President, William Devine; Secretary, Darrell Conley; Treasurer, Concetta Finocchiaro. 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. President ?” Charlie: “No, at least I’ve never seen or heard of a woman who would admit that she was over 35.” Sid: “What did I make on that Physics test?” Miss Daniels: “Mistakes!”

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)
