FOREWORD M Our dream ... one step nearer realization.' We, the graduating class of 1952, present this yearbook to remind us of the days we spent at C. C. S. We will all enter into many different fields but will always remember our high school years we spent together. We will no longer benefit directly from Chittenango Central School but we are sure that we will benefit greatly from our past experiences here, and with leaving we wish to express our best wishes to the future classes who will also gain many fond memories to carry with them. DEDICATION We, the graduating class of 1952, gratefully dedicate our Palladium to Miss B. Elizabeth Teachout for her guidance and contribution to the class these past four years. TRIBUTE Miss Du Plessis Mr. Hatsell Our graduating class of 1952 wishes to pay its highest tribute to five friends, Miss Betsey Benson, both our Junior and Senior advisor, Mr. and Mrs. Morris Beeman, Miss Jean Du Plessis, and Mr. William Hatsell. APPRECIATION In appreciation of Mr. Lewis Smith, who introduced and cultivated the idea of our Washing- ton Trip into almost an obsession with us.

As each new year we came to enroll, We felt we were slowly nearing our goal. We learned many a lesson along the years, Grew a bit wiser and conquered our fears. Along with our studies we’ve had lots of fun. We’re proud of our trip to Washington. After some time of toil and frustration, We’ve finally reached our destination. And now at the end of twelve long years, We’re ready to leave and start our careers. We are sorry to leave all our friends behind, But you’ll always be with us in our hearts and minds. Alice Roberts CLASS HISTORY It isn’t until we stop and look back over our four wonderful years of high school that we realize how much ground we’ve covered or how great were our pleasures. As Seniors soon about to graduate, we wonder how so many of us made it to the top. If we were to attempt to write a complete story of each of our attempts and successes, we would end up with a full length novel. For that reason we are condensing our unusual class history to a few brief paragraphs. We started out our High School career in the auditorium under the direction of Mr. Lewis Smith. We now give our heartfelt thanks to Mr. Smith for starting us out on our trip to Washing- ton campaign. He inspired us through words and actions to make something of ourselves. Our boys had a Freshman basketball team of which we were very proud. Jean Standing, Betsy Devendorf and Nancy Lee Berkey were chosen J.V. cheerleaders. Many of our class mem- bers participated in intramural games and other activities. On December 23, 1948 we had a Christmas party in the lab. We exchanged gifts and all had a marvelous time. On March 4, 1949 we had our Freshman Hop . We were the first freshman class allowed to have a dance and many were doubtful of the outcome. Fearing the mock title of Freshman Flop would be truthful, we got out and sold many tickets, When the proceeds were counted, we were off to a good start with $75.00 profit in our treasury. As sophomores, we found we again had Mr. Smith as our advisor and again were inspired to work for our Washington Trip. The top money raising campaign was selling magazine subscriptions. Everyone did his best to add to the growth of our treasury and we wound up with a sophomore total of $650.02. W e were again well represented in sports and activities. Jean Standing, Norma Puree, Nancy Bortle and Nancy DeVries were seen wearing cheerleading uniforms and many of our fellows were sporting basketball, football and baseball outfits. W e welcomed three new members to the class and lost Grace P armalee, one of our honor students. We had a Christmas party with a tree and presents. We elected Jean Standing as ring chair- man and chose our class rings. The greatest event of our year was our very successful Sophomore Dance on April 28, 1950. At last in September, 1950, we became Juniors and upper classmen”. Under the guidance of Mrs. Constance Yorton, we started the year with 41 members. W'e gained two new members and lost four. We chose Patty Hart and Sonny Van Deusen to attend Boys’ and Girls State. We held two dances, the latter being the Junior Prom”. Everyone worked very hard and to- gether we made the Prom one of the very best the school has ever had. None of us will forget trimming the gym at night or the final results of Spring Garden . We chose Gene Braymen and Winifred Cutter as King and Queen to sit under the rose arbor and rule over the evening’s fun. On December 29, 1950, Mrs. Yorton opened her home to us and gave a very delightful Christ- mas party. In February, Mrs. Yorton left us and we welcomed Miss Betsey Benson as our advisor. W'e ended our Junior year with $694.92 in our treasury and the joy of being Seniors in our minds. Finally in September, 1951, we entered our final homeroom at C.C.S. under the able guidance of Miss Betsey Benson. Being Seniors has been something none of us will forget. We have work- ed harder than in any other year and have undertaken many, many projects. We supplied the story and backgrounds carried out in December by the chorus groups and we nearly drove the townspeople wild with our money earning campaigns. W'e held dances, bake sales, scrap drives, paper drives, a mystery show and we even put on a three-act play called Ever Since Eve . But, by this final spurt of ambition we reached our goal and 26 of us, with Miss Benson and Miss B. Elizabeth Teachout as chaperones, went to Washington! Wre had a wonderful trip and will never forget it. Many thanks to the class members who worked very hard and couldn’t go on the trip. The rest of us appreciated their efforts. We held a successful and beautiful Senior Ball with the theme Somewhere Over the Rainbow on November 16,1951. W'e are planning a class picnic and graduation to end our high school years. Now, as we are leaving the halls of C.C.S. forever we would like to thank our principal, our teachers, our fellow students and the people of Chittenango for making our years here the best years of our lives. CLASS PROPHECY It’s been ten years since I, Jean Smith, formerly JEAN STANDING, graduated from C. C. S. with the Class of '52. I just returned from a trip to Washington, D.C. with my husband and children. While in Washington, I thought back to the wonderful time our class had when we were there during our Senior year. 1 decided then that I would find out what each of my classmates is doing and has done in die last ten years. 1 ran into PAT HART on the plane coming home from our Capital. She is an air line stewardess for the T.W'.A. airlines. I was very surprised to see her in this work because in high school she was 90 set on be- coming a forest ranger. Back in Chittenango, I dropped in on Miss Benson, who you all know was our senior advisor. She's still holding the same position of English teacher at C.C.S. I obtained an entire list of my classmates from her and since then I have really prodded into the lives of my fellow students. In the halls of C.C.S. I saw a poster advertising a dance to be put on by the Class of 1963. I was never so surprised as I was when I saw that the Class of 1952's own jazz band, the Star Top Five was to play for the big event. Of course this was the ideal place to gather quite a bit of information. I wasn’t in the least bit surprised to find GAIL HOWARD as the piano player and leader. The sax and clarinet player was none other than GENE BRAYMEN, who is a graduate of Cornell University and is a public relations man. The trombone player was DEAN MARSAW, who upon finishing his four years with the U.S. Navy has gone into the field of advanced radar. The trumpet player was FRANK GROSSMAN, who is married now. He and his wife live on a farm in Sullivan. I hear he still won't part with that John Deere we used to hear so much about. On the side lines I saw DORA SEEBER, who graduated from C.C.B.I. in 1953, patiently waiting for her husband, Irving Smith, the drummer, to take time out to dance with her. As I danced on around the floor I saw two vaguely familiar girls with their husbands. As they came closer, I recognized the two girls as BETTY COLLINS and SHIRLEY GOODELL. The two are sisters-in- law now. I stopped to talk to them, and learned that Shirley had worked for General Electric for a while before she married Betty's brother. Betty got away before I could find out where she had worked, but she’s married to her Senior beau, Elwin Centner. We sat the next dance out and I found myself sitting next to one of the chaperones, none other than JOHN LYNCH JR. He graduated from LcMoync College in 1956 and is now teaching Social Studies at our dear old Alma Mater. During my conversation with him I told him of my plan and from him I learned what many of our other classmates were doing. He said that besides Frank, we had three other boys who turned out to be farm- ers. It seems EUGENE SAWYER has really put his quiet intelligence to work and is now the owner of a string of farms. JOHN EVERSON is managing one of them and FRED WHIPPLE still another of them. Four other faculty members were sitting next to John and they too entered into the conversation. One was LORNA LADD who graduated from Syracuse General and is now the school nurse. Another was MARI- LYN KING who graduated from Morrisville and is now the dietician at C.C.S. Still another was ALICE ROBERTS who graduated from business school and is now school secretary. The last was Nancy Peterson, formerly NANCY DEVRIES, who graduated from Geneseo in 1956 and is now school librarian. Two girls in uniform came towards us and I recognized them as BEVERLY DEVAUL and CAROLYN WILKENSON. I learned from them that they both joined the Air Force and liked it so well that they decided to make it their lives’ work. Carolyn attended and graduated from Crouse-Irving Hospital before entering the service, so she became an Air Force Nurse. I learned from them, too, that JEAN CASWELL had attended Powelson Business Institute and is now a medical secretary for a local doctor. On my way out I met JACK MERRY. It seems he is how a laboratory assistant at General Electric. I returned to my home in Rome and the next morning while cleaning, I happened to pick up a magazine and noticed that die illustrations were done by none other than JOHN HUBBS, who after working for a year had taken a course in window displays and book illustrations. He has now made this his life’s work. I hap- pened to pick up a Syracuse paper and in the advertising section I learned that FRANCIS VANDEUSEN has opened his own heating and electrical appliance store in Cazenovia. I guess Chickie didn’t have to move far from home when she married him. Also from the paper I learned that BEVERLY LANPHEAR and CLAUD- ENE GEDDES are partners in a beauty parlor. I hear they are doing a booming business. After I finished my cleaning, I decided to call Winifred Gault, formerly WINIFRED CUTTER. I called the operator and who should it be but SUE CONLEY. I understand she’s been with the telephone company for ten years. I learned also that she is to be married soon. 1 guess all those letters she used to write fin- ally paid off. 1 reached Winnie and she accepted my invitation for her and her husband and children to come to our house for dinner. This is where I learned what the remainder of my class is doing. It seems that LEROY CARPENTER is still working at Metcalf's Hardware Store. He's married now to his high school flame. PAUL GIFFORD is a public accountant. He too married his high school sweetheart. NANCY BORTLE is a nurse now. She worked for a year, then attended Syracuse General Hospital from which she graduated in 1957. HELEN EL WOOD is a lyric writer of popular songs. She has aided in giving us some of our today’s favorites. DANIEL EVANS is an engineer in Iran. He is employed by the Standard Oil Co. PETE CHISAM is a contributor of witty remarks for the New Yorker. 1 hear he was offered the job of helping to slow up people at a rest home for overworked people, but he didn’t take it because he felt he wasn’t qualified; sometimes I wonder though. With this I end my task of finding what my senior classmates have been doing since they graduated. All in all, I think we’ve all done all right for ourselves. W'hat do you think?

Jack Lynch ....Ethel Hills Marilyn French On October 8th, 1951, the newly elected student council for 1951-52 held its first organized meeting. The treasurer's report was given, and we had $56.72 in the treasury. On October 5th we had the first dance of the school year. The first project we undertook was to raise money for a washing machine and dryer to wash and dry sports equipment. At the time of this writing, the project is still continuing very successfully. The student council helped with the planning and accounting for the individual pictures taken on Oct. 6th. The council received 20% of the money collected. The main project of the year came next. This was to find some way to reduce the traffic congestion in the building. After a considerable amount of planning and organization by the faculty and student body, a plan was settled upon which was put into effect. This plan has been carried out throughout the year and has proved very successful. During the last week of October the council got the newspaper going. The council made plans for a combination Christmas party and dance to be held for the upper four classes on December 21st. On Nov. 27th four members of the council attended a delegation of Student Council members held at Drumlins in Syracuse. A girl’s athletic association was authorized on Dec. 13, 1951, but as yet it has not been organized. Student Council association tickets were issued late in December. During January and February the main topic of discussion was the theft problem around C.C.S. The faculty and students both participated in discussions concerning this and several suggestions were made. On February 1st, Jay Button and two others from Cortland State Teachers College were brought here by the council to put on a tumbling act. In February the council purchased records and record holders to be used for the vie dances. On March 23rd the council sponsored a student-faculty game. On March 26th another group attended a second delegation of Student Council members at Drumlins. At the time of this writing plans are underway for a third annual student day to be held on May 15th. All in all the year has proved very successful for the council and they have helped immensely to improve school spirit and activities. PALLADIUM 1ST ROW: F. Whipple, P. Hart, G. Broyman, D.

The Whispers staff had a little difficulty starting the newspaper at the beginning of the year, but once they got started they were all right. The staff has resumed the use of the front cover, which was done away with last year. In order to get a good paper out every two weeks, all had to work very hard. The staff found they had to work nights after school, in order to make a well printed paper, since the stencil and printing work gave some difficulty. Predictions are for an even better paper next year, and it is hoped that the succeeding staff has as much enjoyment putting out the Whispers as did this year’s group.

They are as follows: President................................................Nancy Devries Vice-President........................................ Howard Secretary.........................................Marilyn King Treasurer................................................Helen Elwood During the course of the year, at our meetings held eighth periods every Thursday, we ac- complished many things; one of which was the decoration of the bulletin board. Each week it was changed to correspond with that week's activities. We also had many parties during the year with many games played. Some of the games were: charades, rhyme, gossip, and many more. When the Library Club had the parties they also served refreshments and sometimes danced. Once or twice during the year the club served teas and the public was invited. The people then had a chance to look at the books and to see how the library was growing. There were twenty-one members in the Library Club this year. We, the members of the Library Club, would like to express our thanks to Mrs. Barmore for her generosity, thoughtfulness and her guidance to us during the year. Many thanks Mrs. Barmore.

The ag classes took another trip to Cornell in Ithaca on March 17. They were accompanied by their ag teacher Mr. William Pashley. A good time was had by all who attended.

Grandma’s Thanksgiving” was the main theme for the High School Mixed Chorus Fall Con- cert. At Christmas time we presented the Christmas Story. This program was written by the Senior Class and acted by the grades and sung by the mixed chorus. Our Spring Concert entitled Showboat” was enjoyed by all and included many springtime songs. The first week in June the chorus sang at the annual Sherrill Music Festival. Our Special Girls and Boys Chorus enjoy each others’ voices while practicing for concerts and assembly programs. We meet once a week (or have you heard?) This is the first year we have had a 9th grade chorus. The girls love to sing and have helped with our concerts. The 9th Grade Boys now have a chorus but too late for their picture. Next Year boys. SPECIAL GIRLS' CHORUS 1ST ROW: N. Bortle, C. Case, W. Cutter, J. Urciuoli, J. Standing. 2ND ROW: D. Seeber, B.

The number of instrumentalists participating in the program approaches sixty. The basis for that Top-Notch band has been established. The band and the chorus gave a joint Fall Festival concert. The bands played for the Hallo- ween Party, the Thanksgiving and Christmas assemblies and for many of the regular school as- semblies throughout the school year. The Syracuse University Symphonic Band, under the direction of Dr. Harwood Simmons, again gave an excellent concert in our auditorium on April 29th. Both the Junior and Senior Band of Chittenango Central School presented their second Annual Spring Band Concert. Music Emblem Awards were presented to band members at this concert for excellence of achievement in band work. Early in June both the band and the chorus went to Sherrill to participate in the Madison-Oneida Music Festival. Next year should see a fine marching band, a very good concert band and development of the instrumental ensemble groups. VARSITY FOOTBALL 1ST ROW: B. Koegel, N. Gifford, C. Austin, F. Fullar, F.

Next year they will be entered in the Tri-Valley League. Fred Whip- ple and John Button were Co-Captains of the team this year. Good luck fellows, we’ll be cheering for you. C.C.S.

This is the first year that Chittenango has ever had a girls supervised basketball team. The girls have played Tully, Fayetteville, Marcellus and Manlius. Miss Brophy was their instructor. She did very well in showing the girls new plays, passes, etc. The girls really knew something when they got through. March first the basketball team went to a playday at Manlius and played against Tully, Fay- etteville and Marcellus. The girls won three out of four games. March tenth they played Manlius. The score was 35 to 25 in favor of Manlius. On the whole, the girls did very well and we hope in the years to follow there will continue to be a girls’ basketball team. VARSITY CHEERLEADERS 1ST ROW: B. Lanpheor, N. DeVries, J. Standing, D. Seeber, N. Bortle. 2ND ROW: S. Cromp, C. Geddes, K. Strasser, P. Jardine. This year six cheerleaders were chosen and one substitute for both Varsity and J.V. This arrangement proved successful. Varsity Cheerleaders had to try out for football and basketball. That way it gave more girls a chance. Under the guidance of Mrs. Marvin, the Varsity Cheer- leaders in red and black did a fine job and had a lot of fun cheering for the boys. The J.V. Cheerleaders were seen wearing red satin uniforms this year. They were also under the guidance of Mrs. Marvin and performed capably. They are hoping to be on the Varsity Squad next year. J. V.
