were carefully instructed by Mr. Murphy who was chosen as class advisor. The beginning of the year was rather uneventful as we spent most of our time studying so we could find our names on the Official Senior list. However, the class organized un- officially before mid-year. Class officers were chosen and two sport dances took place. Mid-year came and the Senior list was posted, and al- though our valedictorian and our salutatorian did not break any school records, the class as a whole received higher aver- ages than ever before attained in our school. Election of officers again took place and the class advisor was chosen. Plans were made for the year and such activities as two food sales, several dances, the Senior play, a movie benefit and ending with a great finale—the Senior Ball. All these were very successfully carried out. The year’s athletics also ended with success by winning two cups. Nine Seniors were awarded block letters and eleven others earned letters which will be given at the next Athletic Banquet. In Prize Speaking one of the girls earned second place, while one of the boys was awarded first prize for the New York Times Essay contest. Again in our Senior year we find members in the Orchestra, Glee (’lub and .Journalism Club. Now our painting is at last completed and is ready to be hung with the many others in the school gallery. We hope that it will show to the following classes the work that is necessary in reaching the point of graduation. We also hope that the next classes have as successful and as happy years as we have had in our four years at Baldwinsville Academy. LUCY ANN DAVIS 5

History The greater part of our history lias been taken up with pencil and paper and text books. But the extra-curricular activities might well be summed up into an artist’s painting. The canvas is put on the easel during our eighth grade where we find two members of the class in the baseball squad. During our Freshman year we put the first outline sketches on the canvas. Here we find the boys in our class carrying off the honors—five found places on the hockey team, two on the, baseball team, three on the football team and two on the track team. The newly created Dramatics Club had a small Fresh- man representation. Several of the class were selected for the Glee Club and Orchestra. In the Sophomore year the class finished the outline sketches. During that year we did much better in the athletic line. The football and baseball squad took two of our class; the hockey team was composed of five Sophomores; the golf team was made up of four of our class; basket ball, two; and track, one. The Journalism Club, Glee Club and Orchestra membership were filled to a maximum when many of our class were accepted. The following year the class occupid the desks in the Junior room and there we started the difficult task of mixing the paints on the palette. During that year we find two girls holding the honors for being sucessful in the line of prize speaking and one winning the first place in the County Con- test. Three girls were active on the girl’s golf team. However, we find the boys just as active as the girls. One of them was on the winning side of the Kiwanis debate. Other boys were chosen for the athletic field and 15 of them received block letters. Two members of the class were selected to represent the school at the general knowledge examination, and the two newspaper staffs were made up of three Juniors. The following and last year spent at B. H. 8. we finished the painting by applying the paint. This we did well as we 4
