We feel that since we will be entering the air age when we graduate and since we will, perhaps, have a part in The development of this age, this is a titting theme tor our book, We believe that city, national, and even Continental boundaries will vanish before the speed of the plane and we are proud to be able to have a part of this change. We hope that we will be able to fulfill the duties which are before us and enjoy the privileges presented to us in this new age. E INDIAN PAGE THREE 1 9 4 7 8 NP --nr Sit M1 Allen B. Rice, Senior Advisor DEDICATION . . . The graduating class of '47 dedicates this yearbook to Mr. Allen B. Rice, C. C. S. shop teacher and our class advisor tor the last three years. Although he has participated in both school and community activities, Mr. Rice has never been too busy to help us solve the many problems which have arisen in our class during the years which he has been our advisor. We are glad to say that we have known Mr. Rice, both as a teacher and as a friend, for he has helped us greatly these past three years, and we wish to thank him for it. 1947 PAGEFOUR THE INDIAN The lndian - 1947 O Edited by - - Martha Milligan Staffed by - - John Whitehead, Marian Greene, Douglas Seymour, Carol Saxton, Willa Mary Hewes, Howard Hartzell, Alice Gray. Advisor - Mr. Robert Rowland Drawings by - Stephen Kovach FOREWORD . . Many times this year we have thought that we lust wanted to give up the entire idea of having a yearbook, but the feeling that kept us at work was that it we were to admit defeat, many ot the Senior classes which will follow us would also teel that editing such a book would be too hard a task to undertake and would also not have a yearbook. This feeling would prevail until another person similar to David Rodwell would inject into a Senior class the desire to edit a yearbook, as Dave did last year. VVe have enlarged the Indian by several pages and have changed another one. Three more group pictures are included and instead ot having a page with a few facts about the Seniors, we have a page ot pictures ot some ot the Seniors when they were babies or young children. Included among these pictures is one ol a group of Seniors. We hope that the following Senior classes will enlarge and improve the Indian even more, until it is one ot the best yecirbooks in this area. For this process of gradual improvement is the way most good things come about, not suddenly.

THE FACULTY The activities of the faculty this year have been largely social. The first meeting was called by Mr. Turner on Labor Day. At this meeting the new teachers were intro- duced and the election of officers took place. Mr, Kyle Morse was voted president, Miss Clara Gibbs, vice-president, Miss Mary .lane Hancock, secretary, and Miss Virginia 1947 PAGESIX THE INDIAN Rothra, treasurer. The eight new members of the faculty were introduced and their departments announced. They were, Miss Marguerite Smith, Languages, Miss Mary Jane Hancock, Business, Mr. Robert Rowland, Social Studies, Miss Virginia Rothra, Eighth Grade, Mrs. Juanita Burnham, Kindergarten, Mrs. Marie Fox, Music, Miss Elizabeth Litchfield, Home Economics, Miss Julia Sundholm, Office Secretary. Heading the Faculty Improvement Committee was Mrs. Dora Hall. The other mem- bers of this committee were Mr. John Turner, Mr. Robert Rowland, Miss Enid White, Mr. Burdell Cotten. Miss Helen Gregg was chairman of the Social Committee, the members of which were Miss Marguerite Smith, Mr. Allen Rice, Mr. Norman Becker, and Mrs. Juanita Burnham. The Visual Aids Committee plans the moving pictures for the year ahead. The initiation party was held at the Golf Club. The faculty sent a gift to Miss Anna Smith when she retired. Mr. Ernest Cowles was also presented with a gift when he left on a leave of absence this year. A party was also held in his honor. Mr. Albert Ball replaced him as seventh grade and high school algebra teacher. When presenting gifts to departing teachers, the members of the faculty take into consideration the number of years of service of the teacher who is leaving. A maple sugar party was planned for early in the year, but had to be abandoned. The Faculty Improvement Committee held several meetings during the year. At the first meeting they were told about the equipment the school has and how to use it. At a later meeting they discussed giving tests, determining the results, and how to use them. The use of folders for the pupils of the grades was explained. Each student has a folder, in which teachers' comments are recorded. This folder is passed from one teacher to another as the student goes into a higher grade. This system leads to the character traits in high school. At the end of the year a party was held by the faculty. At this time remembrances were given to those teachers who were leaving. ,LM J,..fQ1.e.gq fm W Q 1 Ill lll I Dj-,nl I E . if ll 'I IH- ,. ,J iff' - -R I 1 , A 2 iid' ,A W I 'fi A ll -,.

CLASS HISTORY By Marion Greene The C. C. S. graduating class ot '47 tthat's usl started school in September, 1935. Our tirst teacher in C. C. S, was Miss Maude Skinner. Only three of the original class that started are still with the class, Rosemary Flanders, .lohn Whitehead, and Lincoln Fisher. Our second grade teacher was Miss Mariorie Akin, while in third grade we were taught by Miss Evelyn Murney. While we were in the third grade we had classes with the fourth grade. This is probably the reason we were so sorry to see last year's Seniors leave. During these years, Willa Mary Hewes, Marion Greene, and Douglas Seymour joined the class. Most ot the Seniors agree that the teacher we most enioyed having was Miss Murney, who in addition to being our teacher in third grade, also taught fourth grade. When we entered fifth grade, taught by Miss Garnett Johnson, we telt that we were grown up. We also started our deviltry in this grade. All the girls ioined Girl Scouts. Our posture came in for quite a bit of attention that year. Whenever anyone relaxed, the pointer was brought into use, and the ottender immediately came to attention. One night while the Girl Scouts were having a meeting, we decided that we THE INDIAN PAGEFIFTEEN 1947 should rid ourselves of this pointer, therefore some of us quietly walked into the room and hid the pointer behind a cupboard. Then we thought that our troubles were over until Doug Seymour, the traitor, pulled the pointer out from behind the cupboard and told Miss Johnson that the Girl Scouts did it. Then our troubles really began!!! But it wasn't until sixth grade that we really cut loose. ln this grade our teacher was Miss Jane Eggleston, whose name is now Mrs. Richard Barron. It was her first year of teaching at this school and she was young, and we took advantage of it. We were always playing tricks on her. One noon hour we thought it would be fun to turn all of the thumb-tack boxes over so that all of the thumb-tacks would fall out when she opened the box. The sixth grade room used to be where Mr. Turner's office and the storeroom are located now. We used to like to climb out on the roof which is outside the windows and 'play there. Cne noon we got caught, though, so that ended that. We made puppets and candles while we were in this room. Making the candles was quite a lot of fun. We would get in line with a piece of string in our hands and march around the room, dipping the string in the wax every time we went past it. It took several weeks before we had completed a candle. From sixth grade we went, as most grades do, to seventh grade. Junior High at last!! Our seventh grade teacher was Miss Marian Benson, whose name has since been changed to Mrs. Taylor. When we were in the fourth grade we had a music teacher whose name was Miss Forrestel, who had devoted one day a week to new song day. This day was usually Friday. We were supposed to stand up and sing a new song in front of the room . We all dreaded this day above all others. Johnnie Whitehead would always sing I Had a Little Dog. We always enioyed this because Miss Forrestel didn't appre- ciate it- but she got used to it. We had Mr. Cowles as a math teacher in seventh and eighth grades and he helped us considerably with math. When we were freshmen, Shirley Crump, Stephen Kovach, and Martha Milligan lolned the class. Martha had attended C. C. S. for parts of several years and so was no newcomer. William Geertson left the class this year. Carol Saxton, Joanne McMahon, and Carol Miller ioined the class last year. Martha Kemp entered this year, having skipped her iunior year. Sidney Smith attended C. C. S. for the first semester of this year. When we were freshmen, the senior girls gave a dinner for the entire class. Later 1947 PAGESIXTEEN THE INDIAN in the year a luncheon was given by the girls, on occurrence which became a tradition with the class until this year, when it was decided to hold a dinner in Gretchen's Kitchen at the end of the year. We have had a Hallowe'en party every year, except this one, while in high school, last year having one with the class of '46, As sopho- mores we gave a party, in the form ot a carnival, that will be long remembered by those who attended. Last year we had on outdoor class party at Orsers'. There are seven members of the class in the Senior Honor Society, Martha Milligan being president ot the organization. There are also several Seniors on the Sportsmanship Brotherhood. Several of the Seniors play in the C. C. S. Band and many members of the class belong to the F. F. A., F. H. A., and Mi-Y. There are many Seniors in executive positions on the Chronicle and some are members of the statt. Most of the boys belong to the basketball and baseball teams, and Seniors have acted in many ot the school plays. The class has kept up school standards in scholarship as well as being active in extra-curricular activities. XA! 'QT Y C ' N - Y. ili.Pf4 --,L . ,, M, -... - 'To--' 7 s .' --B ,.jilf7 .

The class of '47 was holding its tenth reunion at Chautauqua Institution. They hadn't seen one another for five years and had come from all parts of the world. Martha Kemp, now a famous missionary in Angola, was giving a series of lectures at Norton Hall about the need for doctors in Africa. Dr. Robert S, Orser, practicing in Burma, spoke to Martha after her talk when the entire class had assembled. He said that the need for doctors was great in Burma, too. Carol Saxton, working in Johns Hopkins as a dietician, voiced her opinion about the need for doctors in the United States, as did Martha Milligan, a laboratory technician who had been doing some work with scientists about the effect of atomic energy on humans. Steve Kovach, aircraft technician, had just arrived from California. He had been delayed by a breakdown in his plane. Homer Terwilliger, an auto mechanic, had found the trouble with no difficulty fthere was no gasl. Among those present were John Whitehead and Lincoln Fisher, both top farmers in Chautauqua. That afternoon the class attended a concert given by the famous pianist, Sidney Smith. Shirley Crump, now a radio singer, presented several numbers. Douglas Seymour also followed the line of music, becoming a hill-billy musician but also being a gentleman farmer on the side. Doug had his own radio program, a half-hour show once a week. As this program was being heard from coast to coast regularly, there was a sponsor and a commercial: If your pan is petering out, go to Billy's Peter Pan Beauty Salon, which is operated by Marion Greene and Elizabeth Hodges. After this program Willa Mary Hewes and Joanne McMahon, both elementary teachers, gave a talk on Why Teachers Are So Important. After this the alumni went to see a major league baseball game. The winning team's pitcher was George Fisher. Irene Boss, Carol Miller, and Rosemary Flanders agreed that it was the best baseball game they had ever seen. Rosemary was Mrs. John G. Stewart now and the mother of twins. Carol Miller was engaged to Roland Hewes. As it was then getting quite late, all said goodbye and departed towards their homes, far and near. They felt sad about parting but knew that in another ten years they would be together again. 1947 PAGEEIGHTEEN THE INDIAN SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the SENIOR CLASS OF CHAUTAUOUA CENTRAL SCHOOL, Chautauqua, in the County of Chautauqua and State of New York, being of sound mind and memory, do make, publish, and declare this our LAST WILL and TESTAMENT, in the manner following, that is to say: First: We direct that all our just debts and funeral expenses be paid.

There are times when members of the Junior class pause and look back over their eleven years history at C. C. S. They look back into the dim, shady past to 1936 when they began their educational career in Miss Maude Skinner's first grade. The class numbered forty then, but time has sliced the class roll down to its present twenty-one. Of the original forty, only eight are still in the group: Laura Beltrom, Mary Nash, Helen Pettit, Helen Watt, Lucille Root, Robert Scott, Howard Hartzell, and William Rodwell. Tyler Hayes and John Beltrom were members until this year. Roland Hewes, Alice Schroeder, and Marjorie Hewes joined the class in third grade, when the school was centralized. Miss Marjorie Akin taught the class in both T H E IN D I A N PAGE TWENTY-THREE 1 9 4 7 second and third grades. The present Juniors were under the tutelage of Miss Evelyn Murney in fourth and Mrs. Garnett Johnson in fifth, at which time they were joined by Royal Nickerson and Mary Adele Hubbell. Many members participated in the Garden Club and started in the Scouts that year. Probably they were at the height of their deviltry in Mrs. Richard Barron's sixth grade. That year they had a new experience when their teacher got marrid in the middle of the term. Memories of the sixth grade are the Victory Club fin which Roland Hewes, Mary A. Hubbell, Howard Hartzell and Bill Rodwell were officersl, the Young America magazines, and the division of the class into army, navy, marine, and coast guard groups for scholastic competition. Having been tamed down a bit in Mrs. Taylor's seventh grade, they pushed on into Mr. Cowles' and Mrs. Lucy Carlson's eighth grade. Highlights of this Junior High graduation year were the Junior Dance Club, the class picnic, and the class play, Family Co-operative. This was C. C. S.'s dramatic hit of the year, starring Marjorie Hewes, Howard Hartzell, Lucy Root, Roland Hewes, and Thelma Kovach, Thelma came into the class from Akron, Ohio, and Phyllis Crump came from Sherman. As Freshmen the class appointed as their officers: Lucille Root, president: Howard Hartzell, vice-president, Mary Hubbell, secretary, William Rodwell, treasurer. Roland and Marjorie Hewes were representatives on the Student Council. Miss Kath- erine Tansey was the faculty advisor. The class sponsored a party on Broadheads' lawn this year. Harry Smith joined the Juniors in their Freshman year. Howard Hartzell was elected president in the Sophomore year, while Mary Nash became vice-presidentg Mary Hubbell, secretary-treasurer, Bob Scott and Martha Kemp, Council representatives. Mr. Kyle Morse was advisor. Ward Bullock joined the class, coming from Cincinnati, Ohio, Martha Kemp, from Angola, Africag Jim Sperry, from Oleang and Pat Carlson, from Falconer. Larry Roberts left at the end of the year to join the Army. This year Thelma Kovach is president. The other officers are: Lucy Root, vice- presidentg Mary Hubbell, secretaryg Harry Smith, treasurerg Helen Watt and Bob Scott, Student Council representatives. Mr. Robert Rowland, C. C. S. social studies teacher, is the faculty advisor. Four members of the class belong to the Senior Honor Society: Marjorie Hewes, Howard Hartzell, Thelma Kovach, and Ward Bullock. The Juniors put on the Junior-Senior Prom and presented a Truth and Conse- quences show this Spring with Bob Scott, master of ceremoniesg Howard Hartzell, announcer, Mary Nash, chairman, and Bob Spence, Jim Sperry, and Ward Bullock helping. Seven boys are Hi-Y members, half the class belongs to the C. C. S. Band. The Chronicle staff, Dramatic Club, and other C. C. S. organizations contain many members of the Junior class. Bob Scott and Ward Bullock will represent Chautauqua County at the Boy Scout International Jamboree in France this Summer. Howard Hartzell reached the New York State semi-finals in the American Legion oratorical contest. I 9 4 7 PAGE TVVENTY-FOUR T H E IN D I A N .

THE SOPHOMORES Back in 1937 thirty-three little future headaches were escorted to school by hopeful parents. Five of these are in the sophomore class: Suzanne Fenton, John tArchieD Fisher, Alice Gray, Marion White, and Paul Clark. Miss Skinner was their first grade teacher. While in the second grade Pat Bessey. Alice Lyon and Milton Hewes joined the class. Mrs. Wheeler undertook the work started by Miss Skinner as the class started second grade. In the third grade, taught by Miss Akin, Syble Greene and Fluvilla Morton became members ol' the present Sophomore class. James Barlow entered the class in eighth grade. Last year eight pupils came from Ashville to join the Sophomores: Barbara Carlson, Margaret Card. Phyllis Keifer, Mary Nichols, Richard Lillard, Thomas Norene, Dorothy Peterson, and Delores Wiltsie.

THE FRESHMEN At the first meeting of the class this year, the Freshmen elected their officers and class advisor. Arlene Carlson was voted president, Peter Craig, vice-president, James Wheeler, secretaryg and Margaret Ostrom, treasurer. Carol Colton and Franklin Hansen are the Freshman class representatives on the Student Council. Mr. Norman Becker was chosen as their faculty advisor. The class held a party at Midway once this year. Parents of some of the members of the class drove. The weather or other conditions prevented the other activities which were planned by the class. The Freshmen have taken their places in the study hall very well. They are represented on the Chronicle staff, the Boy Scouts, Mi-Y, the Junior Honor Society, the F. F. A., the basketball and baseball teams, girls' athletics, the Playhouse, and Girls' Chorus. As well as participating in extra-curricular activities, the class also maintains a good scholastic record. 1947 PAGE TWENTY-SIX THE INDIAN l 7 l EIGHTH GRADF.
