In September, 1952, 65 students were enrolled in the Sophomore class under the direction of Miss Brophy and Mr. Tester.

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.

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
