Cla££ UJill We, the Senior Class of 1949 of the vil- lage of Canastota, County of Madison, State of Hopelessness, being of soundless and dis- posing mind and memory, and not acting un- der the influence of the Junior Class do make public and, declare this written mess to be our last Will and Testament in mannerless and formless following. We hereby expressly revoke all Wills and Codicils heretofore made by us. To Don Pexton—Carmen Barres leaves his bashful ways. To Ann Fisher—Betty Lannis leaves her ex- tended list of college boys. To Nickie Capparelli—Marydee Pankhurst leaves her bass and empty seat in band. To Any Junior—Gordon Wilkinson leaves his position as class Professor.

To Joyce Keville—Virginia Burton leaves her knack to eat and not show it. To Anna Tianello—Joan Runfola leaves some of her “wake up and live medicine.” To Dolores Basilio—Virginia Fratini leaves her charge account in Chappy’s for chew- ing gum. (Snap! Snap!) To the Future Freshman Class—One won- derful advisor like Miss Daniels. To Peggy Loguidice—Gloria Wright leaves her talent of “catching on” quickly in cheering. To Darrell Conley—Cole Bloss leaves his job as C. H. S. chauffeur. To Mr. Wright—We leave a brand new Pon- tiac to replace the one he never did win. To some Junior—Eddie Fisher leaves the draw in the study hall closet for their left over books. To Gene Knox—We leave a Reader’s Digest, with the vocabulary “all done.” To Norma Jean Torrey—We leave a steam c‘ iron for the next operetta. To Bill Bargabus—Louis Ezzo leaves his ap- pointment at the barber’s for a “crew cut”. To Nancy Caldwell—Betty Pavone leaves her water paints, so as to color the futu fe. To Pat Laguzza—Sara leaves her favorite saying “Smile for the birdie.” To Peter Russitano—Mike Buttino leaves a telephone book full of girls names. To Verna Wilkinson—Joe Verro leaves his “jeep” so she can get to all the square dances . To Shirley Bennett—Marie Simmons leaves her typewriter 5th period. To Janet Bushnell—Dolores Cerio leaves her opinions of things (such as men). We the undersigned on this 28th day of June, in the year one thous- and nine hundred and forty-nine, duly proclaim this to be our Last Will and Testament. THE FORTY-NINERS. —MARILYN VREELAND —JOSEPHINE TORNABENE page nineteen
