96 HH S 660 To the Editor of the Annual: So lt is twenty years since we ad- justed our horn-rimmed spectacles and set to work on the first annual! he culled it nCranberry Saucen for some obscure rea- son whlch 1 have forgotten. N0 d0Ubi it would look rather old-fashioned beside its streamlined sister annuals--or Perhaps Hprogenyn would be a better word. Yet we thought we'd produced something pretty Special in the way' of high school annuals and 1'm concelted enough to think now that we did a good job. In some ways we were very much like you--only we sang nYes, We have N0 Banunasu instead ol Uwairzy Doatsn and danced the Charleston instead of nrug-cut- ting.N But the safe, circumscribed world that we grew up in has disappeared and nothing will bring it back. Now distance means nothing and we are only a fzw hours from any spot on the globe. We are beqin' ning to realize that the well-being of other races and nationalities is our re- sponsibility, and a very good thing it is, too. My generation was young in a period when our barriers along as be young country withdrew behind its ocean and let the rest of the world Jet best it could. You are lucky to enough to play a role in perhaps Dear Editor, Our guiding spirit, Clara Strong, has suggested that I write you a letter for your annual, telling of what the past 20 years have brought. Nhat, then, can I say to you? Only thls...You cannot imagine how many times you will have Candor in your mind and the lot of remembrances that will come---some gay, some sad. You will find that high school is not merely books read, nor in- formation gained, nor a career mapped out, Its very essence is a priceless bequest that can be appreciated only as it grows and deepens as the years increase. Twenty years from now you will be n calling your friends, your escapades Cask Mrs. bvans about our banner fightl and your teachers as we today think back to ours---Prof. Marsh, Miss Sackett, Miss Garatt. Then you too can realize how- deeply Mrs. Strong tempered her criticism with understanding and imparted hen knowl- edge with far vision. Edith Snow Dear Mrs. Strong: I was very4pleased to hear from you. I often think of you and my High School days. How little we appreciated you and the rest of our teachers and helpers. The best I could hope for the most thrilling period in the world's history. But enough of these senile ravingsl May you have as much fun with your annual as we had twenty years ago--and in no time at all yJu'l1 be sitting down to write to the editor of the 1964 annual. Janet Jennings It is more than a pleasure to send greetings to C.C.S. back across 20 years. There I started, as members of other class es have started 'cross these 20 years a green and untried lad, but with a grand foundation for living. Twenty years are not at all long when you are looking backward. All the long dry spells are forgotten, or are hidden like valleys below hills and only the times of rapid growth and good friendship stand out. Life is growth, not only from little to big, but from one small room of limited experience to ever larger rooms of wider I wish the best of ysuccess to the staff of this year's Annualg that they get as much pleasure and fun as the class of 'Zh did putting out nCranberry Sauce.H Best wishes to you, hrs. Strong. Pearl Caples Compton the staff sympathies and deeper appreciation. Roswell Lyon Twenty Years! No wonder I have gray hair. Having had the misfortune to be widowed during the past ear so that it of the paper this year is that they might each one have as much fun in the next 20 years and be as happy and contented with their lot at the end of that time as I am. Hope I may hear from you again. dest wishes for the success of the book. Florence Y. Bradley A wave of nostalgia sweeps over me as I reminisce about Candor High School and uCranberry Sauceu of l92h.May Candor High School ever cling to its ideals, devotions and loyalties with the tenacity of a Bos- ton bulldog so the Candor High School's education may continue to be magnificent, glorious, and everlasting. Cecil Lynch DeVincentls Y was necessary for me to find a new home, I have come back to Candor and old friends back to the halls of Candor High-or should more ,appropriately say-Candor Central School. Never a brilliant scholar but always in search of knowledge, I real- ize how essential is education, for with- out the four happy years I spent in nigh school I would be at a loss in my present circumstances. So to the future again I look with expectancy. Perhaps this time I will conquer that hard old world. Lela Timmons,Evans I'm afraid therevs really nothing very interesting happened to me in the years since I was in Candor High School. I marrled soon after I was graduated and we started farming. Our family is working together producini all the food we can for the war effort, so we feel that we are doing a small share toward Victory Our class was very proud to be the first one to produce the school Annual I've watched it grow from year to year and I'm sure this year's copy will be bigger and better than ever.

The graduates of twenty years ago, class of 51924, with help from others then in school, publish 2 t ff 5 tl 5 Q ed the first Annual Cranberry Sauce as a Christ- mas book. Dad Beebe undertook the print job, and a most attractive book was produced. Nobody was con- cerned over the absence of pictures, all enjoyed the editorials, poems, stories, history, prophecy and jokes. Since then, except for the years 1933, 1936, and 1937, an Annual has been produced each year. The 1926 edition contained seven pictures taken out of doors by Olen Smith. Seven pages of advertising defrayed expense of making the neces- sary copper plates for printing. Among these ad- vertisers was D.G. LhGrange who has helped to soon- ser every edition since that time. In 1928, the Students Association was organ- ized by E.M. Preston, principal. Since then it has taken responsibility for the Annual. The 1931 edition showed an addition to the faculty, making a total of ten. In the 1932 edi- tion appeared for the first time a whole page of individual senior pictures. The 1934 pook portray- ed twenty-eight seniors and mentioned typewriting and the honor In the 1935 book, we see the first picture of the Board Of Education and also observe C.B. McCun6 in the faculty group. During 1956 and 1937 no books were published. The cost of making the copper plates for the num- ber of pictures which now seemed necessary, had if become prohibitive. In 1938 it was decided that if the Annual was to become entirely extinct, some drastic meas- ures must be taken. Consequently instead of print- ing, the cheaper planograph method was tried. This is a photographic process by which the dummy pages made by the students are exactly reproduced, reduced in size. Instead of letting the printer worry about making a page look attractive, we must do it ourselves. But to return to 'Cranberry Sauce.

BROADCASTER The Broadcaster is again sponsored by the Board of Education and again received a superior rating at the Press Conference. The Broadcaster as everyone probably knows is the paper published by the students. By working on the staff, they gain valuable experience in writing and in good markmenship. The reporters must write their reports so that they contain all the facts and are free from personal opinions. The artists must be neat in their work. The editors must set up the pages in- an attractive and business like manner. All this gives the students a chance to learn something they wouldn't otherwise get in any classes. The staff for this year was organized on September I5, I9h5. Miss, Stahl and Mrs. Strong are supervisors. Mary Williams was appointed Editor in Chief Co-Assistant Editors are Helen Estelle and Louise Walters. Page Editors are Mary Andrews, Mary Williams, Helen Estelle, Robert Weber, Louise Walters and Carlton Smith. Art Editor is Margaret R ker. Pro- duction Chief, Jane Anderson, Head Typist, Marie Green, Exchange Editor, Dorothy Williams, Circulation, Esther Gage, and Mimeoscope, Patricia Staubach. ' The Broadcaster has a new feature this year: a uBrothers' in Servicen page. This is in charge of Marie Walters and Virginia Moshier. It contains news of brothers of pupils here in school who are in the armed forces. Also the Broadcaster has experimented with different colored paper. The title head was in red jnk, christmas issui was printed ' on green ,paper. The title heqd was in red ink Other issues were printed on light colored paper. Q. What happened which might have been considered a bad omen for the successful end'of the voyage? A. They all got drowned. Being told in biology class that the earth is shrinking, Herbert Barrows asked why someone doesn't sanforize it. FRESHM N INITIATION Ever go to a circus? Well if you never have you want to attend an inita- tion ceremony held annually for the fresh- men class. It's usually a riot. This year we had a fine assortment of pranks all of which were played on the poor FROSH Gloria Roberts and Beverely Ferrls were first to fall victims to the sophomore wrath. They were each given a hotdog and a ruler. With these instruments they measured the black line bordering the gym floor. While the girls were engaged in this floor dusting task Floyd Estelle, Paul anderson, Pete Ward, and Adrian Green were given a doll to dress, then Kof all things! the poor dolls were rocked to sleep to the tune of nRock-A-Bye-Baby.n Music was furnished by the boys. Marcella Thomas, Doris Manning and Stephanie binds were blind-folded and sent' down into the auditorium to propose. The outcome was fine. Dire consequences were suffered by Buddy Bauer, Niles English, Frank Brucknak and Leon Kennedy, who' pushed pennies a- cross the stage with their proboscis. English won by a nose. Emeline Quick, Shirley Stevens, Laura Moore and Rene Austin turned bootblack and shined the sophomore boys' shoes. There appeared to be a small number of boys in the freshmen class because Dale Barrows, Norman Sul- livan, Robert Johnson changed into little girls with ribbons fixed in their hair singing 'A Tisket A Tasket' to conclude the program. Miss Ogden: Cholding a broken ruler! I this your ruler?' Mrs. Robinson: nName a food manufactured by the aid of bacter1a.'
