Chittenanqo CHITTENANGO CENTRA!, SCHOOL CHITTENANGO, NEW YORK ««« As we, the graduating class of '55, look back through our high school years, we notice that the passing years have, somehow, resembled a musical review. Our overture was the Freshman year. This was the year when we were introduced to high school life with its extracurricular activities. Some of us made the J.V. squads of our athletic teams; others were in the ninth grade chorus. All of us were in the great complexity of education itself—study. The first movement of the symphony was our Sophomore year. Now, more of us could belong to many of the various clubs. Our school spirit seemed to increase and our Alma Mater began to mean something special to us. The second movement of the symphony consti- tuted our Junior Prom. This was also the year when some of our fellows became known as Chappy's Boys” on the varsity team. This year we came a step closer to the end. The finale was, of course, our Senior year. We had plenty to do this year. There was the Senior Ball, the dream of a Senior class trip, the Senior play and thousands of other important incidentals to be considered. The event that stands out the most is our graduation — the final achievement after four years of hard work and good fun. The Senior Class of 1955 wishes to show their deepest gratitude to Mr. Durward Weaver by dedicating their annual yearbook to him. Thanks. The Class of 1955 of Chit- tenango Central School wish- es to extend its deepest sym- pathy on the untimely death of a former classmate, Vir- einia Kirk. •V.v V •iv- X. 'vr-s. CHITTENANGO CENTRAL SCHOOL CHITTENANGO. N. Y. MERRILL R. BRAYMEN, SUPERVISING PRINCIPAL To the Seniors of 195 £: It is a pleasure to have this opportunity to express my heartiest congratulatio s and good wishes to your class, the second to graduate from the new high school in the Chit- tenango Central District. Your class seems to possess its share and more of the qualities we like to see in the young men and women of our school and community. Your loyalty, ethusiasm and good citizenship as shown in school affairs have served as in- spiration for underclassmen to do as well or better in the years to come. May I remind you that commencement does not mean the end of your education, but rather the beginning of a new stage in the adventure of life where learning can continue indefinitely if you desire it so. As you leave the halls of Chittenango Central School to enter into new endeavors, I wish you all possible suc- cess in reaching the goals which you set for yourselves. Sincerely yours CHITTENANGO CENTRAL SCHOOL CHITTENANGO. N. Y. MERRILL R. BRAYMEN. SUPERVISING PRINCIPAL To the Class of '£5: It certainly is a pleasure to say a few words to you on this page. You people have successfully completed the requirements for graduation here at C.C.S. and congratula- tions are due you. I know there have been many times when you have felt the end would never come, but now that it is here, I am sure you can look back on many happy memories and experiences. Your school careers have been confused by crowded conditions and moving to new buildings. These things you have taken in stride. As I look back over the two years that I have known you, it would seem that you have made satisfactory progress and adjustments and are now prepared to make your way into the adult life of the community of your choice. I hope that your school and your teachers have been able to give you the tools that you will need in the future. I am sure we will always be proud to say that we helped you plan youi- futures. Best of luck to all of you in your future endeavors. May success and happiness al- ways be yours. Sincerely TfCcUntcHOHce First row: Mr. Bender, Mr. Blaire, Mr. Hildreth, Mr. Coon, Mr. Nutting.

Of all our many wonderful dreams, Graduation is the first, it seems. Without the help of parents, teachers, and a friend, We sometimes wondered if we'd reach the end. • For twelve long years, it's been struggle and sweat, Just to prove to someone we could win that bet. We worked and we slaved to make the grade. The answer to this is because we prayed. Now the end has come and our bet is won But for some of us our work is still not done; To greater heights we'll attempt to reach. Some of us will sing and some of us will teach, Whatever our job, we cannot tell, But we thank you all for being so swell. king plan I Dance. Our made the dance one year. to our iopho What a year that proved to be! In September, 1952, 65 students were enrolled in the Sophomore class under the direction of Miss Brophy and Mr. Tester. Four students moved away but we were joined by Sharon Lampman, Thomas Burlie and Richard Ingerson. Our class officers were: Richard Tatum, President; Dawn Pindle, Vice President; Ray McKitlip, Secretary; and Jane Zeiler, Treasurer. Virginia Meyers was ring chairman. , Virginia Meyers, Dorothy Potter. Patricia Koagle. June Taylor and Pauline Rhinehart represented our class on the cheerleading squads. The boys did very well on the football, basketball and baseball teams. We held two dances during our Sophomore year. They were the Masked Dance and the Bunny Hop. They helped boost our treasury a great deal. Finally in 1953, we became upperclassmen. We as- sembled under the guidance of Mrs. Waaser and Mr Gammardella. We started the year by electing class officers. Dawn Pindle became President; Jeanne Lam- phere, Vice President; Virginia Meyers. Secretary; and Barbara Abel, Treasurer. Martha Coleman, Pauline Rhinehart, Dorothy Potter, and Virginia Meyers were seen wearing cheerleading uniforms. Many fellows such as Peter Stucker, Thomas Burke, James Breakey, George Stewart, Charles Worlock, Gerald Thompson. Richard Tatum, and Robert Kline sported football, basketball or baseball uniforms. sawar, Recording secretary; nrgmi,i Movers Corresponding Secretary; and Frances Bryant, Ti Again we were well represented in sports. George Stewart, Robert Kline, Charles Worlock, Gerald Thompson, Richard Tatum, Peter Stucker and James Breakey were active on the various teams. Dorothy Breakey were active on the various teams. Dorothy Potter, Pauline Rhinehart and Martha Coleman were members of the cheerleading squads. We began making plans for our Senior Ball and de- cided to have it on November 19 with Dick Martin's Orchestra supplying the music. The theme was Star- light Walh. We decided we would have a Prince and Princess to reign over the Ball. They were chosen from the freshman class. . H In addition to our beanies and pennants we sold ballpoint pens with Chittenango printed on them. At Christmas time we sold ribbon candy which was again a successful project. In March we sponsored Luckner's Magician Show which wasn’t too successful because of inclement weather., hs We decided we would have to cancel our class trip tqNew York because of lack of funds. Another big event for the year was the Senior play, State Fair. held on April 1st. The play was a big success and everyone enjoyed working on it. A class picnic and graduation ended our four years in high school. As we leave the halls of C.C.S. to go our separate ways, we heartily thank our principal, teachers and fellow students for making our four years in high school the best in our lives. We only hope that we have been able to pick up just a bit of what was offered and that we, in turn, contributed a bit to the growth of our Alma Mater. We had fun during our four years; we'll never forget them — How could we? They were the greatest! SUE MINTOYNE State Fair CAST Melissa Frake Abel Frake__________ Margy Frake .... ...

CROMP O { unioni The class of '56 has been exceptionally busy this year under the outstanding supervision of our class advisors. Miss Cerelli and Mr. Spinelii. Our first activity of the school year was a vie dance on October 23. The theme “Rags to Riches” called for a Cinderella. Margie Gillette was crowned Cinderella. It turned out to be quite a success. Even a greater success was our class play, Meet Me in St. Louis,” on December 22. Many members of the Junior Class can take credit for its success. The most exciting and thrilling project of our Junior year was that of our Junior From on May 20. The theme. “Treasure Island.” gave us many ideas on making the Prom a success. Other activities included selling Chittenango Book covers and selling candy at games. We would like to congratulate Nieleen Cooper. Margie Gillette, Mike Lynch, and Terrv Sandholzer for being awarded the Citizenship Scholastic Award by the class. Mike Lynch is to be congratulated again on making the winning poster for Safe Driving Day. Many Junior Girls represented our class in Cheerleading. Sonja Ostrowski, Nie- leen Cooper and Connie Worlock cheered for Varsity, while Mary Panebianco and Pat Spade cheered for J.V.’s. Many of the girls participated in intramurals, also. We are also very proud of the number of Junior boys who have taken part in all the sports of the school throughout the year. We have had quite a big year and we are looking forward to our Senior year with great enthusiasm. President, MARY DARLING Vice President BERNARD TOWNSEND First row: G. Wager. I). Huhbs, P. Hart, S.

Our enrollment in September numbered 61. We said our goodbyes to Mary Mc- Kinstry, Morris Beals, Paul Erskine. Audrey Lamphear, Carol Benn, Gary O’Neil, and Judy Vosburgh. We welcomed Barbara Joy and Carol Reynolds. Because of this big enrollment we were divided into three sections with Mrs. Marcy, Mr. Bazydlo, and Mr. Pashley as our advisors. We planned and worked toward making a success of our various activities. Our first and last activities were both dances. The first of the two was the “Pizza Party Dance” with Deanna Panebianco and Charles Mcjury as the chairmen. The other was held in the spring with Maureen Blasier and Virginia Tuttle as co-chairmen. Another activity we all enjoyed was our chicken supper which boosted our treas- ury quite a bit. Eileen Sielow acted as our chairman for this venture. The Sophomores were well represented in sports and cheerleading this year. We were very proud of the fine job the) did. All in all, our Sophomore year was a great success and we are looking forward to our Junior and Senior years with much anticipation. We hope they will be as interesting and as much fun as this year has been. 'P'te46 Ke t r r V EFIC££ I President, D. COOPER Vice President, L. RHINEHART First row: M. Newcomb, J.

Ted Townsend. Our enrollment at the beginning of the year was nearly 90. We welcomed Lana Fifield. Carol Sedorn. Barbara Cilligan. and Ted Townsend as new students. The advisors of our three groups were Mrs. Lovell. Mr. Daye. and Mr. Gehrke. Most of the Freshman class were active in extracurricular activities. Many of us were in Freshman chorus. Girls as well as boys were represented in sports. Our class sponsored one of the many assemblies this year. We invited four foreign students to tell us about schooling in their respective countries. W'e learned that getting an education in Germany. France, Sweden, and Italy is much different than in American schools. One of our first big projects was our dance. It was called The Hillbilly Turn- about.” It took place in the spring and was quite a success. Our first year in high school was exciting as well as educational. We are looking forward to our future high school years with anticipation. First row: S. Haylor, J. Rclyea. L. Jones, B. Allen. L. Badgley, J. Nellenbeck, B. Baird. Second row: M. Cummings. F. Perry.

CLASS HISTORY This year we passed one of the outstanding milestones in our school career for we left grade school behind and entered junior high. Because we came from different district schools, we met and made many new friends. Our grade was so large that we were divided into four homerooms. Mrs. Butman. Mrs. Wirth. Mrs. Bjork. and Mr. Taylor were our class advisors. MRS. WIRTH MRS. BUTMAN o p o 44 •' V ' .•• � • SV The following officers were elected for the 1954-55 school year: President.

The following officers were elected: President, Pauline Rhinehart: Secretary, Ann Loy Wilson: Treasurer, Sharron Lampman.

I he Student Council started the year with the first dance called Chittenango Hoedown with music supplied by The Ozark Mountain Boys. The dance boosted our treasury’ and enabled us to go to Drunilins to a Student Council meeting which was attended by many other schools of Central New York. At this meeting, better citizenship and ways to make money were discussed in detail. I’m ure we came back from the meeting with increased knowledge and the hope of going again. Margie Gillette was chosen chairman of the annual Christmas party on December 23. Cookies and ice cream were furnished to the homerooms and dancing was provided in the gym.

William Shank was elected president; Joyce Webb, secretary; Paul Frazer, librarian; and Sandra Bushnell, treasurer. Under these leaders a merit system was set up to determine the loyalty of bant! members in attending lessons and rehearsals. One of our main projects was working to acquire uniforms. We held a concert in March to earn money for them. With the help of the PTA and school board we hope to have them soon. First row: L. Zick, D. Bloss. V. Floyd. M. Sorenson. C. Sternburg, P.

Under the instruction of Mr. Lawton the Junior Band was organized soon after the opening of school for the fall term. Our main objective was to become good musicians and become members of the Senior Band. We had opportunity to play with the Senior Band for the annual Christmas Program. This gave us an idea of what we had to do when we graduated to the Senior Band. We also performed in the Spring Concert. The Click Club was organized this year for all those interested in photography. The following officers were elected: President. Robert Gladney; Vice President. Dawn Pindle; Secretary. . ue Harris; Treasurer. Charles Coutant; Lecture Chairman. Dorothy Potter. The members of the club have learned the proper uses of the camera and other photographic equipment which had been purchased for them. Students have showed their increased knowledge of photography by taking and developing pictures of extracurricular activities, including taking some pictures for the yearbook. First row: D.

In the spring, the students were surprised to see the Romans “come to life” in the halls of Chittenango when we held our “Roman Holiday.” We elected officers this year, also. They were: Consuls—Medea, Ann Loy Wilson, Pompeia, Suzanne Harris; Quaestor—Marcus. David Geer. Consuls ANN LOY WILSON SUZANNE HARRIS (Juaestor DAVID GEER office This year the I atin Club adopted a new name. It is now known as “S.P.Q.R.” We are now a completely organized club with formal initi- ation ceremonies, motto, rules and are now in the process of reviving what has long been considered a “dead” language. We truly believe that “Latin Lives Today.” At Christmas time the Frenchmen and the Romans joined forces to bring cheer to the village in the form of carols. After this, we held a banquet in true Roman style. cenyCe 'P'tfUtCCUA Kneeling: M. Panebianco. M. Nesbitt. R. Harp, C. Vedder. First row: S. Eddy, M. Darling. N. Cooper, L. Rapaliske, B. Thompson. M.

The first being the Fall Concert which was combined with the P.T.A. This program was a combination of many different types of songs, included were spirituals, folksongs, and some popular numbers. The second program we did this year was the Christmas program, which was only for the high school. In this program we did the Lullaby of Christmas: this story was narrated against a background of Christmas songs pro- vided by-the chorus. Our next and final program for the year was our Spring Con- cert. which again featured a variety of songs. It included folk songs, comedy, and religious; there was also a medley of popular songs, old and new. '?'1€ 6 KCU€ First row: S. Hubbs. M. Elmer, F. Havener, B. Smith. N. Goodrich, M. Webb. B.

Unexpectedly, the Special Chorus was asked to sing at a Rotarian luncheon and was so well liked, the Rotary asked them to sing at their turkey dinner. That evening all the chorus members enjoyed a turkey dinner which was given to them for the entertainment they provided. In addition to these activities, the Special Chorus also 1 participated in all Mixed Chorus functions. To finish the year, the Special Chorus celebrated by having a picnic. P. Spade. C. Worlock. J.
