We've said good-bye to all our friendsg We've closed our books and wiped our pens, We're looking to a brighter land To take a place and make ou1' stand. We leave our school with just a sigh: But we'll remember 'til we die The fun we had, the dull times too: And all the things we used to do. We'll ne'er forget the friends we've made, The jolly ones-the prim and staid. Our teachers helped us every day Both in our work and in our play: And through their help we will attain Fulfillment of our worthy aim- To live our lives both full and Iineg We're proud this night of 'thirty-nine! Rita Heffernan. Senior Class History That memorable day in June has arrived when the class of 1939 is to be graduated. How glad we areg and yet, how sorry! In the summer of 'thirty-five, we gradu- atedfrom Grammar School to be admitted the following fall to the awe-inspiring por- tals of Canton High School. Ours was one of the largest classes ever to be admitted, but we were still inferior frosl1. However, we were not as meek and mild as the upper- classmen would have liked, for 1l1llCll to their chagrin, we roamed around, often' making our presence felt and often encroaching on upperclassmen's privileges. In our freshman year we were not organ- ized and failed to, elect class officers. As a result, we neither sponsored nor entered many activities. The next year we returned as full-lledged sophomores, a little 1ll0l'6 sophisticated and decorous. We elected John Coakley as Presi- dent, William Keough as Vice-President, and Maxine Davis- as Secretary and Treas- urer. Shirley Claus and Talcott Seelye were our athletic representatives. Under the faculty direction of Miss Currie, we had a much more prontable year, during which several of our athletes were made welcome on various athletic squads. As sophomores we had just cause to be extremely proud as we held the first Sophomore Hop, which was a success both socially and financially. The autumn of 1937 made us upperclass- men and gave us the privilege of looking down on the antics of the freshmen. At our iirst meeting, Jack Leonard was chosen head of our class, tobe assisted by the Vice- President, Rouette McMastersg the Secretary and Treasurer, Maxine Davis, and the ath- letic representatives, .lean Harrington and Harold Stiles. As juniors, we had an event- ful year. We held our annual formal dance, the Junior Prom, which was a great success, due largely to the faculty direction of Miss Lupton. We were also active in athletic affairs this year, as we placed many men on varsity athletic squads and captured the inter-class basketball championship. In September, 1938, we attained our great- est ambition. We were seniors! Jack Leonard was again elected President. Charles Clark was chosen as Vice-President, with Harold Stiles as Secretary and Treas- urer. Lauris Robinson was Athletic Repre- sentative and Mr. Riggs, Faculty Advise1'. The huge task of editing the Algonquin was placed upon our shoulders, but was ably done under the helpful guidance of Miss Bovce and Miss ltoche. The annual Senior Ball is yet to come, as we go to pressg but we know it will be put on with the same success that has characterized former activi- ties of this class. Now our four well-iilled years of high school have come to an end. We have wit- nessed in our time championship football and basketball teams. We have seen the development of baseball as a major sport and the introduction of an annual Sopho- more Hop, as well as many other less promi- nent events. We have appreciated the cooperation of the faculty and the under- classmen and wish to extend our heartiest thanks to them. It is our cherished hope that the year to come will prove as-enjoyable and profitable as the years of the past in Canton High. Nathaleen Barr Jack Leonard. . MM Junior Class The Junior Class has brought to a close a very successful year. Guided by the President, Jack Dunham, the class held several social events, including the Junior Prom, which was considered one of the best dances held in 1'ecent years. The class was well represented in sports, placing six men on the varsity football team and winning the championship in interclass basketball and volley ball. VVe hope that future mem- bers of the Junior Class can carry on the work as successfully as this year's class. Robert McCartney. Sophomore Class ln November, a meeting of our class was held at which the following oflicers were elected: Hilliard Womack, Presidentg Helen Post, Vice-Presidentg Eileen Maroney, Sec- retary-Treasurerg James Kelly and Nellie Cotter, Athletic Representatives, and Miss O'Hara, Class Advise1'. The S0phomo1'e Hop was held April 29, 1939, in the high school and proved to be a great success. Eileen Maroney. The Algonquln unior Class .5 1 pf r lv'lllS'l' ll0W lla-ft tn viglltlz Dunn. King.

The driver is none other than Bob Hosmer, who drives us with great dexterity through the City of Tomorrow. We alight in front of Eddie Mlourick's LOCKELAND THElATlt.E. where we are ushered in by a squad of speed- dcmon ushers, notably, Maurice Lalone, Lester C. Leavitt, Elizabeth Seymour. and Eleanor Lawrence. Double features are still with us. The pictures which we sec star Mills Norton a.nd Melita Howard in It Can't Happen Here, and Maurice XVi:l.l'l'C'll 211111 Eleanor Howe in lt Still Can't Happen H ere. A newsrcel, showing the All-American football team, brings to the screen those former Canton High athletes. Spike Robin- son, Johnny Cunningham, and Tony Stiles. The lights flash on, and Paul Hull steps out upon the platform to conduct Lucky, Scrccno, Treasure Chest, and. as an extra, added attraction - Bank Night! As we leave the theatre, the announr-er's droning voice is heard asking, demanding. begging, pleading for two volunteers. Before entering the City of Tomorrow, we cannot help but notice that loquacious elo- cutionist, that perfect public speaker, Fred Barbour, barking for a Little Egypt Show, which is running competition to Joe Clark's tHarmonica Hotshotsf' Approaching our destination, we are greeted by Jack Leonard, mayor of this splendid city. Once inside, we marvel at the wonderful structural designs, created by those great architects, Robert and Lawrence Cotter. Alice Reese is now the editor of The Daily Blabf' Therefore, it is with little sur- prise that we see her ever-present ace re- porter, Flash Coakley, rush over towards us, clamoring for an interview. Our guides, Lowell Lawrence and Bette Denesha, point out to us the Hall of Educa- tion, also designed by those Cotter twins, where we meet James Maroney, now en- gaged as an English professor. Donald Austin, that giggling maker of speeches, is also a member of the faculty. Will wonders never cease? Unfortunately, George Baxter is not able to stop and talk with us, for his spare time is still spent i11 taking geometry. He expects to pass it one of these days. You never can tell, George says cheerfully. Thatis perseverance, boys and girls! I ! Maxine Davis and Joan Benton, who are new engaged as welfare workers, come up to usg and a cheerful visit follows, during which we learn that Natt Barr has finally been successful in extending the bus line service from Canton to Morley. We next proceed to the Agricultural Exhibit, where we see that happily married couple. and Charlie, absorbed in the latest farm machinery. Under Evelyrrs arm is Robert Locy's latest novel. Behind the Plow. Under Charlie's is Dick Schrag's Behind the Eight-ball. Two other eminent authors are Ruth Newman, who has just published Pounds Gone With the Wind, and Dorothy Weathernp, who has just re- ceived the Pulitzer Prize for her novel, 'tThe End of Gusker Onderdonkf' .lt's about time! ! ! Traveling through the Midway, our atten- tion is attracted by a vividly-colored picture of Rita Hellernan. Queen ol' the Ballet. who is now appearing in The Dying Dui-li.' Does she slaughter it! l ! At this moment, we catch sight of Jimmy Catizone and I-lrace Paro, who have been in- strumental in reestablishing Pyrites, which has grown into quite a metropolis, believe it or not! They are joined by June Severance and Virginia Peters, who are now modeling for that superb artist, Burt Gray. Everyone is invited to come up and see his etchings. Unfortunately we have to miss seeing several of our former classmates who are unable to be present in t.he City ofTomorrow. Houette Mc-Masters is in Germany, advising Hitler on how not to run Europe. lliarion Peters is also abroad, giving Mussolini pointers on how to dominate and dictate. She ought to know, ll Duce. Don Paro, now a millionaire, spends the majority of his time at a fishing resort-getting hooked! ! ! Bob Thompson is back in Colton with his girl- friends. Nice work if you can get it! Also among the missing are Alan King and Everett Thomas, who are operating their own poolroom. Continuing our journey, we see John Hale standing on a soap-box, in the midst of a crowd, campaigning for president. WVhat if it is a OIIG-llllllll political party? Beside John are his two high-low bodyguards, Doris Jones and Phyllis Dunkelberg. Stopping at the Food Exhibit, Lloyd Smith is observed representing Clark's Grocery Store. lt's a family ailair now! l! John O'Horo is also here, representing 'tThe League of Modern Men. Our appetites having been stimulated by this brief visit. we look around for a suitable place in which to eat. Suddenly our gaze rests upon that magnificent, colossal struc- ture. the Scalise-Harrington Spaghetti Joint. Below the sign, in small letters, ap- pears this warning: All you can eat for a quarter. The management is not responsible for consequences. Proceeding at our own risk, we enter. Waitresses Eloise Hutchins and Vivian LaC1air give us the menu and we order the least dangerous-sounding thing. During the meal. we are entertained by that torch-singing team-Dorice Rood, Sharlene Aldous, and Thelma Riawson. The Iloorshow consists of a contest between those ace jitterbugs, Elizabeth Thurston and Clifford Ames, Lawrence Tupper and Helen Wade. Mary Toomey and Gilbert Besaw, and Lloyd Mc-Donald and his Cornhusking Chorines, notably, Anna Burke, Edith Briggs, Edna The Algonquin T F. Under the leadership of its President, Fred Sykes, the Canton Chapter of the l1'uture lrlarmers has had a very successful year. Other ollicers arc: Vice-President, 1-lollis Browng Secretary, Gerald Ames: Treasurer, Robert Locyg Reporter, .Judson Cooldeng Watch Dog, Don Gilson. The judging team, which competed in six events, won 5524 and a first place plaque. Last fall, the Future Farmers held a Parents 'llammetn in the Grammar School i Aj r gym, at which seventy-five were served. Letters were awarded to the six boys, who did outstanding work in connection with the F. F. A. club. Canton Future Farmers, in cooperation with the Canton Jolly Hustlers, initiated square dancing into the high school, by hold- ing two 'square dances. Next year we hope to have Im0l'6.-Of them, as they proved to be of much interest, fun, and entertainment. Gerald R. Ames. . The Art Club The Art Club, which was organized last fall under the supervision of Miss Staples, has a membership of 'about twenty. The oiiicers of this.club are: Helen Melrose, President: Don Paro, Vice'Presidentg and Mary Toomey, Secretary. The Art Club holds its meetings every Thursday night at seven, in the Art Room. Many interesting projects Canton High School have been carried on in this club. The mem- bers have made clay models and jewelry out of linoleum and leather. They have also worked with copper. At present the Art Club is completing a mural which they have designed and painted, representing Canton High School and its activities. Mary Toomey. I .9 The Amazons The Amazon Club, which originatedalast year under the leadership of Miss Lupton, has completed its second successful year. During the winter, the girls had a very successful sleigh ride, which ended witl1 a hot chocolate party at Billy's Lunch. 'lin early spring the mighty Amazons challenged the cliampiion.-girls' basketball team, the .---'.. x.. , , . if , rg . . tif' Q. . Qin. V . ' -- Gouchers, but were defeated by a score of 39-32. Here's wishing the future Amazons many more such successiutyears! This year's orlicers are: President, Rouette Mc- Masters: Vice-President, Angeline Duskasg Secretary, Helen Mclllastersg Treasurer, Helen Wight. Helen Mc-Masters. r an Hobby Club The Hobby Club is now limited to Sopho- mores and Juniors. The oiiicers this year were: President, Mary Clarkg Secretary and Treasurer, Patty Toomey. Meetings were at first held in Miss Lupton's Latin room and it was there that the new members, Esther Howard, Marion Laberdee, Eileen Maroney, Nadine Smith, ,Janet Sawyer, Shirley Whit- temore, Dorothy Partlow and Helen Uoakley were selected and initiated. Several eilort- rewarding sessions on hobbies, hair-do's, nails, personality, clothes, etc., were infor- mally held. A few parties were enjoyed. The new members brought in new ideas and new vitality. A change in the time schedule of the Hobby Club was made, and the meetings were then held at the various members' homes on Tuesday evenings, alternating with the French Club. This proved more convenient for everyone. 'The Algonquln Movie Club The Movie Club is an organization, the purpose ot which is to study the technical operations of making and showing motion pictures. Under the direction of Mr. Williams this group has shown pictures at its meet- ings and taken some news reels of Canton High School activities. Organized in the spring of '38, the Movie Club has made remarkable progress throughout the year, and we look forward to increased member- ship next year. r Photoplay Club' All The Photoplay Club has celebrated, this year, its first anniversary. Besides the senior charter members, twenty juniors were ush- ered into the club in January, with an hilari- ous initiation. We have come a long way since last year. Our aims are the same, but they have taken form, and this means a great deal more to us. Some of our aims are: to direct an amateur movie, to operate a movie can era, to write amateur scenario, and to judge photoplays by means of a rating scale. The Photoplay Club is under the supervision of Mrs. Bridget Cunningham, whose advice and help we welcome. The oflicers are: President, Joan Bentong Vice- President, Robert Hosmerg Secretary, Do1'is .lonesg Treasurer, Lloyd Smith. Eleanor Howe. National Thespians The National Thespian Troupe, No. 250, of Canton High School not as active a troupe as those in many other schools. Because it takes such a long time for stu- dents to attain the necessary requirements for admission, membership is reserved as an honor and goal for those who have served an apprenticeship in the school dramatic club, the Masque-rs. We began this year with three old mem- bers, Alice Reese, Frederick Barbour, and Arthur Williams. The new members are: Jean Harrington, Maxine Davis, Helen Mc- Canton High School gasfers, Marian Smith, Burt Gray, and Paul u . Membership in this order is the highest honor that can be paid to any high school student interested in dramatics. It is a national organization and is recognized in schools and colleges all over the United States, as an acknowledgment of a person's dramatic ability and character. It is our wish that, in years to come, Canton High School may have a truly active group of National Thespians! Alice Reese. .M I L XYZ?-Collins. Clark, Wight. Pnrn. Halle. Nnsll.

The X Y Z? fraternity, which was founded in 1908 and whose main purpose is to rank high in scholastic. athletic, and social 011- deavors, has had a very successful year. The ollicers are: President, Worth Nash: Vice- President, .lohn Hale: Secrotary-'l'reasurer, Don Paro. The initiation was held in the fall, admitting a number of new members. The social events of the year include: the 0. Now, as you read this brief history of the Omieron Alpha Pi fraternity. we, the mem- bers, have completed our thirty-sixth year a prominent fraternity. 'llhis year we have lived up to our stand- ards very well. We have been well repre- sented in eve1'y school event. and in every class, as well. Last fall, when school started, many of our brothers reported for football, and several played regularly throughout the season. 'llhe basketball team consisted en- tirely of men from our ranks. ln the school plays this year we were also well represented, When the snow linally left the in A. initiation, a. wellattended picnic, participa- tion in the school circus, and a banquet. This fraternity was well represented especi- ally in scholastic and social activities, as the members of the casts of two plays were chosen from among us. The present members feel that they have done much to advance the name of XYZ? in Canton High School. Don Paro. P. athletic lield, a number of men from this organization reported at the track and diamond. Several social events took place during the year. The annual dance was a great success, as was the sleigh ride, the banquet and the picnic. We departing seniors will always have pleasant memories of our high school days, when we were active members of this iine fraternity. This year's oiiicers are as follows: President, Charles Clarkg Vice-President. .lack Leonardg and Secretary-Treasurer, John Coakley. Charles Clark. Pi Pi Chi The Pi Pi Chi i'raternity. which is com- posed of lilteen members, was organized only a year and a half ago. The fraternity has proved its worth in this short time. by placing several members on the school's football, basketball. baseball and track teams. Also, several members have attained exceptionally high scholastic averages. Meet- Canton High School o ings were held every two weeks at the homes of various members. An initiation' was held during the fall term of the year. The initiates were: Robert Baxter, Jack Merrill, Buster Snyder, Walter Bradley and Dick Robins. ln the future, we hope that the members can add to this splendid record. Robert McCartney.

' The Algonquin The Band The Canton Hand, under the capable leadership of Miss Dominy and her co-worker, Mr. Appleton, has risen to a new height during the past year. Due to the loss of many important players and the receiving of many inexperienced Junior Band students into our organization, we were not expecting the success we enjoyed. The Band has made many public appear- ances this year. A 'few of these were: foot- ball and basketball games, our annual con- cert, the Music Festival in Potsdam, village celebrations and the state contest held at Amsterdam, New York. Ten members of the Band attended the .music clinic in Ithaca and eight soloists competed in the state contest. ' We wish the Band another successful year in 1939-40 and hope that this organiza- tion 'will continue to flourish in the Canton schools. . ' - Keith -Mayhew. Orchestra . , y . Under the competent leadership of Miss Dominy, the school orchestra has made favorable progress. Many more strings have been addedg and together with the new wind instruments, they played for the 1938 High School Graduation. Their Iirst appearance this year was at the presentation of the one- act play. They entered the Sectional Con- test, April 1. in Potsdam and won an excel- lent rating. They assisted at both the local The Tn place of the two choral organizations of last year, there is only one this year, the Canton High School Chorus. Meetings were held every Monday night from seven to eight. Otlicers were: Assistant Conductor, Helen Wightg Pianists, Maxine Davis and Virginia Mayhewg Librarian, Clara Cotag Canton High School Speaking Contest and the .Northern New York League Speaking Contest in April. ,Although the organization is losing a few ot its members, we hope thatit will carry on to the best of its ability tor years to come. Officers are as followsi Assistant Conductor, Maxine Davis: '.Secretary and Treasurer, Virginia Mayhew: Librarian, Betty Jane Parog Assistant Librarian, Janet Manleyg Stage Manager, 'Malcolm McCormick. Virginia Mayhew. Chorus Secretary, Richard Robinsg Manager of Seating, Alan Sykes. Next year it is the hope of all members that there will be a larger turnout of boys, as well as girls. How- cvc1', all members enjoyed themselves and the majority plan to be present another year. Dick Robins. , F ix- It Club The Fix-It Club is the homemaking club of,Canton'Highf School. The most outstand- ing feature of the year was a Fix-lt Club dance, introducing Jackie Harrington's Swing Band. Besides this, a corn roast, a Weenie roast, a skating party, and a Christ- mas party for small children were held. This is the first year that pins have been worn: and in honor of this occasion, the Seniors ol' the club gave a spaghetti slipper lor the other members. The following were ollicers during the year: President, Esther Todd: Vice-Presi- dent, Edra Morrow: Secretary and Treasurer, Marion Peters: Assistant, Virginia Peters, Sergeant-at-Arms, Vivian LaClairg Counselor, Miss Sanford. Marion Peters. Canton Jolly l-lustlers 4-I-I Club The Canton Jolly Hustlers 4-H Club has an enrolhnent of thirty-one members made up of Canton High and Canton Grammar School students. They have made much im- provement in the last year, under the direc- tion of Guy L. Mathews. In 1938, they won the trophy for the club making the most progress during the year. This is one of the largest all-boy clubs in the county. The oflicers are: President, flfrederick Sykesg Vice-President, Alan Sykesg Secretary, Ar- nold Thurstong Treasurer, Donald Austin, News Reporter, James Corey: Cheer Leader, Harold lVilder: Local Leader, Guy L. Mathews. Arnold Thurston. - Literature Club The Literature Club, with Miss Barber as 8ClVlSOl', was organized this year for all high school students, for the purpose of further- ing our knowledge of modern books. This club has been very successful and we hope it will continue to be so. Tile ollicers elected were: Chairman. Dolly Scott: Secretary, Betty Bergman. Janet Sawyer. Girls' Basketball This year, as in the past, under the direc- tion of Coach Oliver, the girls have more than enjoyed the new system of basketball and have gained a better idea of how the interesting game is played. This system of intramurals was introduced last year. ln- stead of having but one team, eight teams were formed and eight captains were chosen, who selected the names of colleges they wished to represent. From approximately sixty-five participants in the sport, the cap- tains chose their teammates. Goucher, the fourth leading team in the league, showed how well they could play in the two iinal games of the season by win- ning with a 12 to 8 and Hi-Ii victory in the play-oils and the championship games re- spectively. We wish to congratulate you, Goucher! This system has proved to be very satis- factory because it enables more girls to take part in the athletic program of the school. Peggy McGraw. The Algonquin Q7 , , , FXIQST ROW fl:-ft to rlghtjz Lcunarl. Williams, Clark. Coalcley, Patterson. SECOND ROW: Couch Ullvcr, Dunham, Schrag, Kcough, Ilale, Baxter, Nash lMgrJ Basketball A large squad responded to Coach Oliver's call for basketball enthusiasts on November 5. After the squad was cut to twenty-live players, the rest participated in intramural basketball. With but three veterans, Charles Clark, VValter Patterson, and John Coakley, Coach Oliver was faced with the task of moulding a well balanced team that would be equally as successful as those in the past. Arthur Williams and .lack Leonard were selected to lill the remaining positions but the iloor- work of Rfi1'llll,l'fl Shrug, the shooting ability of Bill Keough and the speed of Jack lhmham were to be heard from before the close of the season. Early season practice was devoted to the linding of a smooth combination. After several weeks of practice, the Golden Bears opened the season with de- cisive victories over Saranac Lake and Ogdensburg. These early season successes were followed by a, slump in which the team sullered many defeats. Finally rallying, the llears were successful in obtaining a berth in the play-oils and entered the fray in fourth place. A victory over Norwood sent CZUICOII in to the clunnpioiisllip game against Potsdam. This iinal game ended disastrously 'lor the Bears and Potsdam scored a decisive victory over Canton. Canton High School A new state rule provided for a maximum schedule of sixteen games. This caused many annual games, such as the ones with the Aggies, St. Lawrence Fresh, and Watertown High School, to be omitted. However, a Junior Varsity League was instituted. This allowed more boys to take part in the sport. The Canton JV's distinguished themselves by reaching the linals, in which they were defeated by the Norwood Junior Varsity. At the end of the season, both Canton squads were honored at a banquet given by the Canton Lions' Club. Canton Opponents 35 .... Saranac Lake ,.,,..... . 17 39 Ogdensburg 18 23 ..

S. was able to provide opportunity for more students to take part in the spring season of athletivs. Games and meets were scheduled in suvh a way that the two sports, trark and baseball, would not conflict. Delayed by inf-lement weather, the squads were unable to pru.eti4'e outside until the first week u-fter the Easter vacation.

Meets were srheduled with Potsdam, Ogdensburg, and Gouverneur, along with the divisional cham- pionship, Vandiezen and Seetionals. Rivaling track for popularity, baseball began its third year as a major sport in Canton High School. With plenty of ma- terial, Coach Oliver, assisted by Stephen Ci-ary, devoted much of his time to Iinding a good hitting and lielding combination. The personnel of the team was selected from such candidates as: R. Shrag, C. Clark, J. Coakley, J. Elliot, A. Nash, E. Thomas, W. Keough, W. Bradley, J. Catizone, M. Lobdell, R. MIeUartney, R.
