The friendly-word, the kind act, will outlive the outstanding accomplishment in the hearts of those who knew him. Great indeed is the man who may have both the admiration and the remembrance. Mr. McCarty was a leader in many fields during his life. He was outstanding in athletics at Corning Free Academy and at Williams College. Later, he became a half-owner with his brother of the W. S. and J. J. McCarty Insurance firm. His other accomplishments were numerous, especially in civic and athletic affairs. Such were his successes. The memory of his understanding, friendly nature is still held by many citizens of Corning. It is not only his business associates and adult acquaintances who recall the genuine warmth of having known Mr. McCarty. Many present students of the Academy still speak of the way he could make a mere high-school 'student feel sincerefriendship. His personality drew admirers throughout the community, and his high ideals of sportsmanship were followed by many. ' y ,: And so, we dedicate the nineteen hundred andgforty-three Stator to Joseph McCarty who was all that is fine, a successful business rrian, and a friend. Pig! Seven CONTENTS Dedication .

In some ways, it is the same familiar school with traditions like the Freshman-Sophomore Hop and the Friday morning assemblies, but in other, deeper ways it has changed. Perhaps the war has not hit us directly as it has the students of Europe, the children of China, but we feel it, and deeply too, for we are across-sectionof America. The energetic seventh-grader earnestly running to each class, the casual junior, the important Senior may seem very different at a glance. But watch the seventh-grader, the Junior, and the Senior in assembly as they join in the pledge of allegiance to the flag. There is no difference now in their actions. They all look with their faith, their hopes, and their dreams in their eyes at the symbol which is the assurance that those dreams can come true. The same three go up on Wednesday morning to buy their defense stamps. Again there is no difference, for the seventh-grader, the Junior, and the Senior, on such a vastly different plane actually, have that common look of confidence that they are helping out. The school life of C.F.A. students has always been planned toward preparing good and worthy citizens for America. But the citizens being trained this year are to have extra responsibility, so they must be trained more thoroughly and carefully than ever before. The men in the services and the rebuilders of the world after the war will be taken from the people such as these present Academy students. This is the reason for the intensified program at C.F.A. to prepare its students physically, mentally, socially and structurally for the task which is theirs. The result will be adults with well- rounded lives and high ideals who will help to carry on the American way. The Editor page nine WILLIAM E. SEVERN As counsellor and advisor, Mr. Severn has srarted our large group toward their various careers. We are grateful for his kind and understanding help. WILBUR T.

They have come a long way and are destined to follow even longer paths before they finish the course of life. They have only finished the first lap when they are graduated from high school, but a good start denotes a fine finish. This year, their last in Corning Free Academy, they have done their best to make a success of all their undertakings and leave behind a good example for the Senior Classes to come, After the election of officers, came the annual magazine campaign which was successfully conducted with every member of the class doing his part. The winning team had a slight disappointment when their prize of candy could not be provided, but everyone was satisfied when Claudine Jones and Marguerite Todd received their prizes of twelve dollars and seventy-five cents each in War Stamps for selling the most subscriptions. The annual Christmas Ball, given December 3o, was the next major event of the year. The gym, adorned with holiday decorations, had a festive air, and everyone watched eagerly to see who would get the contents of the huge Christmas package in the center of the gym. The dance was proclaimed a huge success by all who attended it. Then came the triumph of the year, the Senior Play. This year, Miss Tobey wrote the play, as well as produced and directed it. The play, a three-act comedy entitled With Hamlet Left Out had the audience rolling in the aisles as scenery fell over and boys pranced in odd-looking Shakespearean costumes. It was a great triumph for Miss Tobey and the Senior Class. This year, on May 15, the class of 1943 gave a Senior banquet, a private affair attended by Seniors and their guests. This banquet, held at the Baron Steuben, and the dance that followed, provided a great deal of fun and entertainment for all who went. It was given in lieu of the trip which the Seniors usually take on Class Day. Too, the Spring Dance was held on May 8 by the Seniors. A large crowd filled the gym, which was beautifully decorated with artificial flowers, the theme, a combination of May Day and a flower garden. The Senior Class has had an unusual year, for many boys left for the armed services, and the class was separated very quickly. Still, there will always be the memories of the good times and friendships of the last and best year for the Class of 1943. page eighteen SE IOR CLASS MADELINE ANDRADE business-like, goes for Ujixef' nice smile SILIKICIIIS Association 1-4, Choral Read- lllg 1.

The results of the voting were very close: Robert Gore was elected President, Jack Frey, Vice-President, Martha Maxwell, Secre- tary, and Beverly Knapp, Treasurer. Jack Frey actually carried on in the Presidency, however, when Bob Gore transferred to another school. The Juniors were the classmen behind the beautiful Christmas Pageant. Kay Hoyt was touchingly realistic as the Virgin Mary. jack Frey portrayed Joseph, Thomas Sullivan was the haughty king Herod, Peter Picarazzi played the inn-keeper, and the Angel of the Annuncia- tion was Roseann Stack. The three Wise Men were portrayed by Richard Welty and Harry Watkins, both Seniors and by Gene Trinney. Eva Patrick, Ann Sweeney, and Jeanette Carr were Angels, and Robert Mahoney was a shepherd. The other main activity for the Junior Class during the year was their Junior Prom, given May SLI. It was a semi-formal affair, and the music was provided by a very good orchestra, new to Corning Free Academy dances. The gymnasium was decorated in the spring theme, with many flowers and pastel streamers. Every- one enjoyed the Juniors' dance, and they deserve much credit for making it so successful. page twenty-cigli Q1-71 ' I' ..f9.fN j' Q ' Kaur 1.

Quite a heated battle took place with john Dowling competing against Ed Leahy for presidency andjoe McKin- ney contending against Eleanor Hilt for the vice-presidency. Results were close with Ed Leahy coming out on top as president, Eleanor Hilt as vice-president, Bill Hin as secretary and Eileen Golf as treasurer. The crowning event of the Sophomore social year was the Freshman-Sophomore dance held on the night of Friday, November aoth. This long-established custom of the wise and worldly Sophs welcoming the unworldly Frosh class into the real social life of Corning Free Academy was greeted with great enthusiasm by members of both classes. Great quantities of ice cream and innumerable cokes disappeared Qat the ex- pense of the Sophomores who really ate just as much as the lowly Freshmenj The dancing was enjoyed to the music of Harry James, Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey etc. Qall records played on the vic of courseD but as everyone agreed, it was almost as good as having the bands themselves-almost! The Sophomore class really made itself known this year in the upper grades. They went out for many extra-curricular activities such as the Stamp Club, Conservation Club, Choral Read- ing Club, and the Glee Club. The football, the basketball, the baseball and the track teams also had much useful material added from the Sophomore Class. All in all the Sophomore Class had a success- ful season. Well-initiated into the responsibilities and pleasures of Senior high school, next year's Junior class ought to be a great success, that is if the results of this year's Sophomore Class prove anything.

Although they seemed timid and very cautious at first, it didn't take long to get acquainted and their bewildered ex- pression soon changed to the confident expression of the upper-classman. At the beginning of school they held a meet- ing and voted for their class officers for the year. From their group, they singled out Albert Quat- trini as Presidenthloseph Nates as Vice-President, Patricia jack as Secretary, and Richard Murphy as Treasurer. Under these capable and efficient leaders, the Freshmen were introduced into the social life as well as the scholastic activities of the school. Their social life began with the traditional Halloween party given for the Freshman Class by the Sophomores. From that point on, they were seen in great numbers at the social hours and at all other school events. The Halloween party was really lots of fun. Each year the Sophomores give this party for the Freshmen, so that they can get acquainted and not feel quite so left out of things. lt always works too! After a night of round and square dancing with their classmates and with the Sophomores, the Freshmen feel as though they had been in school and had known these students for years. Take a good 'look at them now. In only a few years you will be hearing lots more about them. At present they play a smaller part in the school activities and student interests and ideas, but each year their interest in the school increases and so does their enthusiasm for the other students and activities. This class, we believe, will certainly achieve high points in their years at C.F.A. lt is a grand group with lots of great kids. We want to wish the future Senior class of 1946 the best of success both now and in the future. page rhirty , Brew, Gardiner, Lapp, Wollf, Crrppen, Wetherhee, Hubhard, Griswald, Tiru-a Burton, C.

Yan Kurru, Osborn, Heunexr L ,.a, s, .wa 2 Although the members of the junior High are mostly newcomers to the Academy, they have adjusted themselves very quickly to the tempo of high school life. There is, for instance, Mrs. Drew's homeroom' which' has attained rooq, in its war-stamp sales for weeks and weeks. It really takes the Junior High to set the pace for the other homerooms, for they seem to be most conscientious in everything which they undertake. They have definitely started on a social life of their own, so that the Senior High has nothing on them there. Their social hours are in the afternoon from 4 to 6, giving them plenty of time before the curfew rings at 9. They have a Glee Club of their own, too, even though they as yet have not made their debut to the public. Their singing class meets Mondays and Wednesdays with Mrs. Franz. The youthful singers not only can do the Nelson Eddy, Lily Pons type of song, but the swing numbers like Brazil Mrs. Franz's homeroom is definitely versatile, for the pupils have started a hobby club. Everyone who has a hobby may discuss it with the other hobbyists in the group, and perhaps get a few suggestions for future projects. Joan Asher heads the girl's hobby group, and Bill McAndrew the boys'. Everything from doll-collecting to stamps has been discussed. From all evidences, Corning Free Academy will really have something when these Junior High Schoolers take over in the upper grades. page rhirry-one . sa. ,. . fu.: . . rr-.zgwvr -V i 9 1 mm? ..-A. 1.

FOOTBALL The 1942. Football season which opened up slowly with a 6-6 tie at Olean, gave evidence, as the season advanced, that the Blue and White had one of its strongest teams. Lacking the weight and brawn of some prior successful years, Head Coach Earnest W. Craumer, with the able as- CFA- We opened the season at Olean with a night game, under lights, on September 1.5. Olean scored its touch own in the first quarter on two passes. The Academy's untriecl team couldn't get going until the latter part of the game when they tied up the game by a good, hard touchdown on a CFA-6, In another night game under lights, the Academy earned a smashing and unex ected victory over their ancient rivals, Hornell High Schooi, at Hornell by a single touchdown. This broke the three year o-o ties. In the last of the third CF A- The Academy took the field against Northside High the first time on October io, determined to down the fighting Tigers. From the beginning it was evident that the Blue and White were superior to their cross-city rivals and late in the first quarter, Big john Reilly crashed through the Tiger line to block Obourn's punt and then to fall on it in sistance of Robert Duncan and Kenneth Fielding, welded to ether a smart, speedy, smashing attack and a strong defense to bring the Academy home with three wins, one tie, and one defeat. 6, OLEAN-6 15, N short pass, The game was rou h and hard-fought. Alfred Miller, who showed promise of icing one of the outstandin fullbacks in Academy history, received a shoulder injury and was unable to play again throughout the season. 1 HORNELL'O quarter the Bulldogs started an eighty-five yard march, crushing their heavier foes, and continued right to the goal line where Captain Andy Kosty smashed his way through the line for the score, HS-o - the end zone, for a touchdown. Benny Bacome carried the pigskin across on a line plun e for the second Bulldog tally to climax a forty-eight yard drive for the Academy. For the final score of the game, Ctaumer and Bacome connected on a short pass into the end zone, late in the second quarter. Ctaumer successfully kicked the extra point. ElMIRA HIGH SCHOOL 'I3, CFA-7 On October 1.4, CFA took on the heavier Elmira High School team at Elmira. Faced with a stonewall goal-line defense, the lighter Academy team held off the smashing attack of the Elmira team during the entire first half and even carried the fight into the Elmira territory. The half ended o-o much to the amazement of the overconfident Elmira fans. Superior weight of the Elmira team finally wore the CFA boys down and Elmira scored and made the point after the touchdown, The scrappy CFA team came right back, however, and with Ctaumer assing to Kosty, Sotge, and Williams, Williams went over For the Academy's only touch- CFA- The Academy proved the first victory over Northside was no fluke, by again soundly trouncing them 18-o on October 31. During the first quarter, the Academy gradually forced the Northside back. Early in the second quarter, Bob Wil- liams caught Obourn's unt on the thirty-yard stri e, which was kicked from behind! his goal-line, and under tliie protec- tion of perfect blocking, rom ed thirty yards for the first touchdown. The remainder ofpthe first half was a nip and During the season, Craumer's passing, William's and Bacome's running, and the defensive work of Griffin, Murphy. Reilly, and Dates were outstanding, Captain Kosty's all- around playing was also one of the features of the season, down. Ctaumer kicked the extra point, making the score 7-7. Elmira rallied again, and with repeated line thrusts soon scored against the tiring Corning team, in spite of two gallant, goal-line stands: Owens scored for Elmira and the score stood Elmira-13, CFA-7.'Still fighting hard, Kosty took the kick-off and gave it to Williams on a reverse, who danced his way fifty-five yards down the side lines before he was knocked out of bounds. Ctaumer tried three asses into the end zone which barely failed to connect, Although the losers, the Academy did attain glory, and gave Elmira a scare which Elmira will not forget for a long time. 18, NHS-o tuck affair, In the third quarter, Bacome scored on a thirty- five yard run for the second touchdown. After that when Bacome attempted a line plunge, Aranda picked the ball out of the air when Bacome jug led it and made the best NHS run of the day, when he eludiied the CFA tacklers for thirty- five yards. When Lesso tried to pass for the Northside, Sorge intercepted and ran forty yards for the last touchdown of the day. Final score CFA-18, NHS-o. All in all it was a smart, fighting team and the Coaches deserve a great deal of credit in welding together an efficient machine which upheld the best Bulldog traditions.

Northside Due to the transportation conditions created by the war, no league was held for the county Jayvee teams, so the Bulldog Pups formed their own three-team league with Painted Post and North- side. CoachJames W. McCullough molded out of a group of entirely inexperienced Freshmen and Sophomores, an exceptionally successful team, winning seven out of its nine games, losing only to Campbell and Bradford, both varsity teams. They defeated the NHS. Tigers four times, twice on the home court, twice across the river, and downed the Painted Post five in three games, two at the Academy and the other away. With such a successful team, the boys wished that there might have been a county league to test their real abilities. The game with Bradford Varsity was the first game for all the boys, and they were really scared. But, they quickly settled down and fought the Bradford cagers right up to the final whistle, losing by only nine points. The Campbell game, the first after Christmas vacation, was really a hard-fought battle, but the county champions of the C league were too much for the Blue and White, and they rolled up a score of 36 to 15, page thirty-seven ASEB LL - TRACK K . h ' y , ra ..

The winners of the two zones will play off at the sports rally to be held in Hornell on May zz. Four games have been scheduled, two with Painted Post, one of which has already been played, the Bulldogs coming out on the short end of a 4-1 score, and two with Northside. The team is coached by Richard C. Grimths who came here as band instructor from the Mansfield State Teachers' College. With the shortened season, Coach Grifiiths will not have an extensive op- portunity to create a well-rounded ball club this year, but we have great hopes for the future. TRACK As this is being written, the Corning Free Academy Track Team under Coach Ernest Craumer, is preparing for its Spring meets. Only three meets are scheduled, the first being a dual one with Haverling High School at Bath on May iz, the second a meet at Sayre on May Io, and the last one the annual county meet to be held at Hornell on May zz. The team is captained by Francis Clutch Sorge, veteran pole vaulter and relay man, and is managed by Joe Nares with Robert Burke as assistant. page thirty-eight ITR URALS Raw 1: Wilbur, Evans, Reese.,llCk, Merril, Wenderlich, Reilly, Shaffer, Marmot, Sweatts, Olsen Rau' 1: Brouneushlnrdan, Yorio, Spencer, Sutton, Davis, Aldam, Haddad, Lapp, Pulver, Luffiecl Rau' gs Strayer, Hampton, Kelly, Elwell, Mayer, Kimble, Eggleton Rau' 4: Barr, Carr, Hackett, Cross, Dedrick, lelliff, Burr, Ginnane, Welzel Row 1: Miss Wolforil, Corcoran, Purcell, Malrbv, Rother, Curiiehloris, V, Dedriclt, Boyian Rau- 1' Picarazzi, Fanchei , Sonnet,-l.

Throughout the year can be heard, gotta go to gym to play basketball for the Zooms, Cor some such crazy namej Teams get organized early in the fall and whiz from one sport to another all year long. Competition is keen, for each team yearns to get those medals that are passed out each year to the winning boys' and girls' teams. If a team doesn't win in the Hrst sport that comes along, they have ample time to do better at the next one. And so the teams run the gauntlet from foot- ball, kickball, horseshoes, and bowling in the fall, to basketball, volleyball, table tennis, and badminton in the winter, on to the spring fever sports, track, tennis and softball. The boys' and girls' intramural councils, and the intramural managers are kept mighty busy planning and carrying out schedules for all the various teams. It takes a lot of work to keep the complicated system of intramurals running smoothly. Every year the girls participate in playdays held here and in other schools. This year, the girls' intramural council, along with the A.C.C. held the kickball playday in our gym. The whole affair was a great success and was thor- oughly enjoyed by all the girls. As they have done for several years, the boys' intramural council again put on a boxing exhi- bition in the gym on April 13. This exhibition, whose participants ranged from all ages, shapes and sizes, was attended by a large crowd who really enjoyed the various Fights and Wrestling matches. page thirty-nine Rau' .'

This year the Club was capably managed by Mildred Joris, president, Theresa Wenderlich, vice-president, and Betty Kosty, secretary-treasurer. The main event sponsored by the A.C.C. this year was the kick-ball playday held here at the Academy. Northside and Painted Post girls were also invited. As it was during the I-Iallowe'en season, the teams were appropriately called Jack-O-Lanterns, Ghosts, Broomsticks, Witches, Bats, and Cats. A delicious luncheon was served amid splendid decorations of brightly colored leaves, place cards consisting of a candle on a leaf, and multi-colored plates, cups, and straws. Blue and white plaques were given to the cham- pion teams. Yes, indeed, these girls are certainly active and mighty proud to earn the C of their Alma Mater. The boys Xarsity C Club has also had a very busy year. With Peter Griffin, president, Francis Sorge, vice-president, Bill Fancher, secretary-treasurer, and jack Reilly, Student Council Representative, the Club has carried on very successfully. The Varsity C Club is composed of boys who have earned a high number of credits according to the sports in which they participated. Anyone could easily pick out the members of the Varsity C Club this year by the familiar blue sweaters with the white stripes which were seen everywhere in the halls. The boys worked hard to earn these varsity sweaters by selling pencils with the basketball schedule printed on them, and by selling Christmas cards. Dick Hennessey, Jack Frey, and Jack Murphy earned a large sum of money by selling candy at the basketball games. The Varsity CH Club also sponsored the annual boxing match which is fast becoming a must for every C.F.A. student to see. These boys have certainly been busy this year and C.F.A. is very proud of its letter-men. page forty Inter: un ar C D b Lrfr lv Ksgbt Collins, Telian, Main, Rodgers, bmw L, Mr. Nurder,Sukir.1, Berry, Hilr, Brouneus, Tunney C , CHEERLEADING Come on Blue! Come on White! Come on Team! Fight-Fight-Fight. Again and again could be heard this battle cry as the C,F.A. cheerleaders, captained by Mary Telian, invaded the surrounding gyms and led the cheering crowds in urging the team on to victory. Many times when the team was behind or when it began to slow down, the cheerleaders, resplend- ent in blue and white uniforms with bulldogs glaring from their backs, jumped up and spurred those Bulldogs on. The eve before the annual Northside-South- side football game, the cheerleaders led the student body to the Meadows where there was a huge bonfire with students dancing, parading, and giving the school yells, and demands for a complete victory. Then the whole group of students, headed by the cheer- leaders, formed a snakedance and winding off the hill through city traffic, went to meet the foe at Northside, where the Academy cheers were again eagerly given. Pete Calias Petey Dunbar and youngest son of one of C.F.A.'s math teachersy was a great sensation as the squad's mascot. Great was the delight of the spectators when Petey, a natural leader, led the cheers at the annual football game with Northside, his fluttering blue and page for white ribbons practically as long as himself. He was also a real trouper at the basketball games and never missed a game or a Hi-dee-hi with his co-worker, Gene Tunney. Terminating the year's season the squad entertained themselves with a spaghetti supper at which the jokes and stories of the past season were recalled. As only four veterans will return next year, the squad held weekly try-outs this year instead. Hearty yells were heard issuing forth and painful muscles were felt as the candidates tried to master the ups and downs of cheerleading motions. Around thirty to forty candidates tried out, a very inspiring fact to the old squad. From these were picked the remaining Varsity members for next year's squad and the jayvee squad. The others will be banded together as a Cheerleading Club to form a supporting group for the squad next year. Yes, indeed, 'midst snake dances, pep assem- blies, new cheers, Petey, the mascot, spaghetti suppers and keeping up with the team, the cheerleaders had a very busy season and the Senior members of the squad hated to see the end of their cheerleading season.

From this magnificent and illustrious group were taken the C.F.A. Cornells and Lunts, the ones who gave us good entertainment in three assemblies. 'Twas in November that the first play, Her Fatal Beauty or A Shop Girl's Honor, a real old-fashioned mellerdramer, was pre- sented. The audience sat entranced as the villains, David Van Tassel and Tom McAndrew, plotted the downfall of the beauteous heroine, Joyce Hood, who was eventually saved by her handsome hero, Ed Leahy. Sally Trevena and Jeanne Wonsak added to the suspense and drama, while Mary Telian as the gum-chewing secretary added to the comedy. ln April, the Theater Guild presented another one-act play, this time an hilarious comedy entitled, Frank and Erna. When Frank, played by Tom McAndrew, after a quarrel with his wife, Erna, Betty Strayer, found out that his bachelor friend Ed Asbury, Jack Lyons, was coming to see him, in his excitement told the Irish maid, Nancy Carlton, his sister, Eleanor Purcell, and his cousin, Marianne Schwerer, that each one should take the role of his wife. When Ed Asbury met each of these girls as Erna, the result was confusion for him, and laughter for the audience. Things were very involved indeed. The third play of the season was also a comedy, a short one-act play entitled, A Pair of Lunatics, with the setting in an insane asylum. Betty Berry and Jack Collins played the part of a couple who, invited to a dance at the asylum, met there, each under the impres- sion that the other was mentally off. The ridiculous statements and actions of each served to keep the whole student body in stitches until, finally, at the very end they found each other completely sane. Despite shortages of boys and the trouble in finding convenient times for rehearsals, the Theater Guild managed to find excellent casts for its productions. The new faculty advisor, Miss Young, ably directed the productions, and together with the officers, guided the Theater Guild through a successful and entertaining year. page forty-four B E Tl G ge .F P ll Pratt SENIOR PLAY With Hamlet Left Out was one ofthe most enjoyable plays ever presented at Corning Free Academy. It was a very special play, too, for it was written especially for the Senior Class by Miss Grace lone Tobey. Miss Tobey wrote the play during her summer vacation, and then dili ently coached the large cast in their fine perfimrmance. The audience was astonished and interested when the voices of seventeen Middlepoint Senior girls were heard protesting against giving Hamlet, a Shakespearean play, as their Senior production. They all wanted to give a sophis- ticated modern drama. Even master-mind Ben- jamin Gridley couldn't make them change their minds, though he earnestly explained to them, in high-school jargon, the high spots in Hamlet. Finally, the girls were forced to resign them- selves to do the Shakespearean play or none at all. Cissy Burns, Joan Purcell, a very popular Senior, wanted the lead, but Rachel, a new girl at school, Priscilla Pratt, showed such great enthusiasm and ability for the part of Ophelia that Miss Bigelow, the dramatic coach, cast her in the lead. Cissy no longer was such a popular girl, but was considered a very bad sport because she would do nothing to help in putting on the play. Poor Cissy lived in misery during the weeks of play rehearsal, until Ben helped her out of her predicament by suggesting she make her pastel into a poster advertising the play. Cissy was so grateful to Ben that she kissed him on the nose as she ran to con- vert her pastel. The title role of Hamlet just had to be acted by Johnny, the Senior man adored by all the girls. johnny always had so much to do that he never did show up for rehearsals so, unknown to Johnny, Herbert Brower, Paul Johnson, was substituted as Hamlet. The third act was the part most enjoyed by everyone, for it was a most unusual scene. The boys and girls, some attired in their Elizabethan costumes, attempted to put up the scenery for Hamlet. The props fell over, the inexperi- enced girls hit their fingers with hammers, and the bedlam created was typical of any Senior class putting on their Senior play. As a climax, Cissy Burns was offered a posi- tion with an art company by the man whom everyone had thought to be a talent spotter. Rachel, too, was encouraged by Mr. Wentworth, the spotter, to continue in her acting career with a possible chance at Hollywood later. All the Seniors were so happy as the play developed that they no longer resented giving their unsophisticated production. Ben found enough courage to ask Rachel for a date. Rachel accepted willingly, even though she was much in demand these days as the-Senior boys' leading lady. When the adored Johnny called loudly for Rachel at the end of the play, he learned at last that he had been surpassed in acting as well as in dating the most popular girl in Middlepoint. The audience at this point eagerly awaited the appearance of Johnny, whose voice had been heard many times during the play from off- stage. But Johnny did not appear at all until the curtain-call, when he was immediately sur- rounded by admiring girls. Hamlet really had been left out! page forty-five i ' lffrfi. ,j 3-st BAND Majantm: Rodgers, Ellison, Hilt, Maxwell, Iordan Kew 1: G. Fehn, Heermam, Webster, R. Granger, Danbar, Osborn, Hornung, A.

The band lost Mr. Breon to a Red Cross job late in the hrst semester, and band was suspended for a while. That is, until Mr. Griflith came in February. 1 A The band played at the Corning Glass Works Broadcast and at the Corning Glass Works itself at the time of the Army-Navy award. The players got a big kick out of the pins given to them as identification tags at that time, and now they are saving them as souvenirs. The favorites in band are Cypress Silhouettes, American Patrol, and Bolero Non, not to mention, of course, all of their marches. Their Spring Concert came in May, and the band had fun playing their favorites to the people of Corning. his wound up another successful year of music for one of the school's most color ul organizations.

They play quite a few marches, too. They have gone out visiting quite a few times this year, and most of the peo le seemed to enjoy their compan . They played at a Corning Glass Works Broadcast, at 'Men's Clulg and at the Rotary' Convention. Of course, there was their own Spring Concert, too, in collaboration with the Glee Club. All told, it has been a fine musical year for them, especially their last event, playing the traditional music for graduation. ' JUNIOR ORCHESTRA Rm 1: Reese, Herbert, Webb, G.

Thirty-seven pupils now comprise the Choir, and the only instrument which is not string is the chimes. The String Choir practices every Saturday morning at the school, so that the players are actually devoting their own leisure time to make music. The Cho1r's recital takes place on June 1, when a joint program of String Choir and junior Orchestra is presented. So, in counting over our musical organizations, Corning Free Academy has four. They are something of which to be proud, and if these exist indefinitely, C.F.A. will never lack musical talent. These organizations wi l go on saying it with music.

Pouring out the audi- torium doors punctually every Tuesday and Thursday mornings to lull the sleepy Study Hall students back to dreamland. Mostly flat, sometimes sharp, rarely on the right key, the Glee Club at the beginning of the year seemed practically hopeless. Then, bit by bit, under the able direction of Mr. Corwin, precision and pitch improved, but definitely! Under such admonitions as Sing with your ears, You can never stay on pitch accidentally, Blow up, Can't hear you basses, Don't be afraid of it, tenors, the Glee Club emerged, a unified whole. The selections: the beautiful Sanctus from the St. Cecelia Mass, and Silent as Night, delighted everyone. These pieces were supported by other excellent numbers such as the Close of Day, the lovely Vilia, Bouree, the majestic The Heavens Resound, and My Dream is of an Island Place. The year's hard work was fittingly climaxed at the spring concert when the members of the Glee Club did themselves and Mr. Corwin proud! More music! And more tribute to Mr. Corwin for his excellent direction of the Christmas Choir. Resplendent in their new crimson vest- ments, the choir marched proudly down the aisles of our packed auditorium on December zz, to furnish the melodious background for the lovely Christmas Pageant. Each person carried a lighted candle, creating a very holy atmosphere in the darkened auditorium. Arranged on either side of the stage to form an appropriate frame for the religious tableaux, the choir poured its heart and soul into such famous carols as Silent Night, O Come, O Come, Emmanuel, and Joy to the World. Along with the tableau groups, the choir, com- posed of twenty-eight of our more euphonious Glee Clubbers, delighted both student and adult audiences and did great credit to Mr. Corwin. page forty-eight SOCIAL EVENTS The social whirl at Corning Free Academy began early in the first semester, in October. The event was the annual Freshman-Sophomore Hop, the dance given by the Sophomores for the brand new Freshmen. The gym was decorated in orange and black with the witches, cats, and jack-o'-lanterns typical of the Hal- lowe'en season. The dance not only brought much pleasure to both classes, but it also helped them to get acquainted, a start for the next our years when their activities would be so close. During November, basketball games and late football matches provided the entertainment for many C.F.A. students. At Christmas time, the students thrilled to the beautiful Christmas pageant given in assembly. Several tableaux, rgpresenting the Annunciation, the appearance o the Angels to the shepherds, the Nativity, and a scene in Herod's court, were presented. These tableaux were made very colorful and realistic by the costumes of the period and the soft lighting effects. The choir who sang the traditional Christmas hymns so beautifully, wore scarlet vestments and carried lighted candles. The pageant made an impressive and inspiring program, due largely to the direction of Mrs. MacFeiggan and Mr. Corwin. The Senior Christmas Ball completed the festivities at the Academy for nineteen forty-two. The decorations were centered around a huge sur rise package, tied with red, in the middle ofthe floor. The lar e crowd danced dreamy, slow numbers, and fist, jitterbug pieces to the music of Ruth Cameron and her orchestra. The social season waned slightly from January on, but was resumed definitely in May. The Seniors came through again with a Spring Prom, a semi-formal dance. The gym was refeshingly decorated with bright flowers, and with many blue and white streamers spiralling from a May- pole in the center of the dance floor. The girls in their colorful spring gowns looked lovely as they danced with their men to Bruce Grant's music-makers. The Seniors did it again, a week later, when they held their class banquet followed by a dance. The banquet took place at the Baron Steuben Hotel, and was enjoyed immensely by all the Seniors. Since there was an acute shortage of boys this year, the girls brought guests to the informal dance which was held in the gym. It was a special treat for the class to have two dances in two weeks, thanks to Mr. Miller's thoughtfulness. Then, the juniors came through on May 2.1 with their annual dance, in the gym as usual. The music was furnished by an orchestra new to the stu- dents of the Academy. The dancing was fine, the decorations were tops, and everyone had fun. t May was the month for music, too, this year' The Glee Club and the Senior Orchestra com' bined to present a concert on May 1 . Mr- Corwin was the music master who coul9d take the credit for the lovely singing of the Glee Club and for the fine playing of the Orchestra. My Dream is of an Island Place, a dreamy refrain, Silent as Night, an expressive selec- tion, and the Sanctus from the St. Cecilia Mass, were the outstanding numbers sung by the four-part Glee Club. The outstanding selec- tions of the Orchestra were In a Persian Market and part of Beethoven's Fifth Sym- phony, the Victory Symphony. There was an added attraction this year for the concert when Mrs. Janet Orr sang I Love Thee by Tchai- kowsky, accompanied by the Orchestra. The Band Concert also took place during May. The new band leader, Dick Griffith, did a very good job of training the Band in their concert numbers. The stirring American Patrol, Cypress Silhouettes, and the Latin Bolero Non were the featured selections played by the Band. This year's social events were really the best seen at the Academy since the Senior Class of 1943 has been here. The dances, the concerts, and the plays given will long be remembered by all who attended them. It has been a year to remember for the whole school, and especially for the Seniors who will always be grateful for such an eventful last year. page forty-nine I r 1.

The members are boys and girls who have attained high averages together with high ratings in char- acter, leadership, and service. This year's officers were: Betty Rose Hilt, president, Mary Telian, vice-president, Anne Marie Fehn, secretary, Barbara Pond, treasurer. Priscilla Pratt was elected Student Council Representative. Twice a year assemblies are held in which the new members are tapped. At the fall assem- bly only Seniors are chosen but in the spring assembly both Juniors and Seniors are admitted. In the fall assembly seven new members were added to the Society. Priscilla Pratt spoke on scholarship and leadership, while Richard Gregory explained character and service. After this, the new members were presented with their pins and membership certificates by the president. That afternoon a tea was held in the Homemaking Rooms by the old members in honor of the new members and the faculty. The table was decorated attractively with red, white, and blue candles. Music, singing and games furnished the entertainment. Keeping up with the tradition started last year, the C.F.A. and the Northside Honor Societies invited each group to their respective assemblies. The C.F.A. Chapter was further honored by being invited to the Northside social hour that evening as their guests. On April 30, the Honor Society held its final spring assembly at which about five more Seniors and six Juniors were chosen. The vale- dictorian and salutatorian of the Class of 1943 were announced by Mr. Severn. To terminate the year's functions and to welcome the additional new members, the Honor Society held its last social. In spite of rationing food and transportation, a very suc- cessful picnic was held at Denison Park. Baseball was the order of the day. Thus the year's activities were brought to a close, much to the regret of the Senior members. But they will keep on in their scholarship, leadership, char- acter and service-four qualities very necessary in this world of today. page fifty-:wo Rou'1'Tcll1m,Grlllm Rou nfl.

It is through this organization that the students of C.F.A. have a chance to express their opinions and ideas concerning school government. This group is definitely democratic as each organization in the school has a representative in the Student Council. ln addition there are two representatives from the Senior class, two junior class representatives, and both a Sopho- more and Freshman member. Miss Wolcott and Mr. Miller are the faculty advisors of the group and it is this one body in the school in which the students may talk over matters with the principal. Every fall the candidates for officers of the Student Council give their platforms in assem- bly. That noon every student who belongs to the Students Association elects his candidate. This year Peter Griffin was elected president. Mary Telian was elected vice-president and Helen Spenser is secretary. Under these officers the Student Council has undertaken many affairs. Keeping up the tradi- tion the Student Council sponsered the ever- popular social hours in the gymnasium to which members of the Students Association are admitted for a reduced price. This year the Council also sponsered Class Day, a day which every student in the school enjoys whether he is a Senior or not. On this day the teachers and pupils reversed positions and every Senior in the school took over at least one class, most of them two. The Senior president, Sherman Craumer, served as principal for the day. This is certainly a good example of the democratic spirit which the Student Council fosters in the Corning Free Academy. pigs iiiry-three i .Yvamlx Lraumer, Pond, Pratt Rau' 1: Brouneus, li.

As usual, when the school year began, the new staffs were chosen from the Junior and Senior classes. When these groups had been informed about their duties work began im- mediately on the planning, financing, and print- ing of this book. And, as usual, the staH' made the same promises that every other previous Stator staff has made. This year, the Stator will be better than ever. And each year, the book has been improved in several different ways. This year, that statement means even more than before because the staff has had to work and plan even more to meet the various shortages and rises in prices. At the beginning of winter, a number of the business staff members could be seen running all over town, trying to persuade the store- owners to put an ad in the Stator. And, if you had nothing to do in a study hall, you could probably look around and see someone gazing at a blank sheet of paper, trying to get an idea for a write-up due that day. ' Well, that's the way it is, until the middle of April. Then most of the hustle and bustle of work on the Stator is quieted down, because the year book is ready to be sent away to press. The members of the Stator staff coulcln't get anywhere without the help and supervision of their faculty advisors. Mr. Fielding and Mrs. MacFeiggan have given us much time and effort to make this yearbook a success. And now, after a long period of planning, hoping, and working, the staff has finished. And here is the result of their work-The Stator of 1943. page fifty-four Rau' 1: Proury, Reynolds, Lyons, Cowley, Brouneus, Gardiner, Hoyt,j.

The Hill Echo is an accurate reproduction of all that goes on at the school. It has twelve pages just packed with current goings-on, features, cartoons, sports, and a teeny bit of the rise and fall in C.F.A.'s twosomes. All this is given for the meager sum of five cents! During the first semester, Kay Hoyt and Muriel Gardiner were co-editors, then for the second semester, Kay Hoyt took over alone. Twelve issues came out this year, put out on time by the hard working contributors. The Hill Echo room fairly hummed with ac- tivity throughout the day. Mr. Fielding whose room adjoins states that the humming was even a bit loud at times, along with the clatter of the mimeographer, three typewriters, and the oral contributions of several proofreaders. Mrs. MacFeiggan, Miss Young, and Miss Loomis kept the Hill Echo newshounds out tracking down news. Frenzied questions aimed at various officers of the clubs around the school were in reality only requests for committee lists or dates of especially prominent spectacles. These reporters had deadlines to meet! Mr. Norder was the guiding light as usual this year, taking care of the business angle and circulation problems. Yes, Friday afternoon was the eventful time when all the news boys came around with copies hot off the press. The articles written by our most talented authors, the short sketches on Seniors, the sport highlights were all devoured by the avid readers in record time. The Hill Echo seemed to improve with each issue, showing the experience of its publishers. The Hill Echo is definitely established now, and is destined to live as one of the finest traditions in Corning Free Academy. page fifty-tive Kan- 1 I sons, Cfowlev, Hood, Hoyt, Telian, W.

The usual elec- tion of ollicers took place, with Mary Telian elected President, Kay Hoyt, Vice-President, and William Gage, Secretary-Treasurer. Then, the members of the club agreed to a revolutionary new measure of allowing French I students to enter the select ranks formerly reserved to students of French H and III only. The increase in size of the club has provided many new advantages, for a larger membership has enabled these French-fanciers to bring more and better movies on France to the school, and the new members themselves have contributed many new ideas for future activities. During the lirst semester, the club had the opportunity of seeing several very interesting reels on various parts of France. The film was lent to the club by Corning's Rotary Club for its educational value. French students viewed with delight scenic high points of provincial France, as well as some shots of Gay Pareeu itself. The picturesque Norman peasants, lofty chateaux of ages gone by, then crowded cafes, beautiful avenues, theaters, the contrasts of rural and civic France were most interesting. Geogra uhical and industrial France was the subject o a series of reels shown for the French Club before Easter vacation. These films were most valuable to students of the French Club in that they provided required background mate- rial in an entertaining way. Then, the French- lovers Cand obviously movie-loversl were given a chance to exercise their knowledge of spoken French when they presented their annual full- length feature, Grand Illusion, a movie en- tirely French, and starring Jean Gabin. The movie depicted a subject of current interest, life in a German prison camp during the first World War. The French Club invited the Painted Post and Northside High Schools' French Societies to see the movie. From all evidences, the club had a most successful year, due largely to the guidance of Mrs. H. W. Kresge, who knows almost everything about the French people and their language. The French Club has not only had many good times during the past year, but it has also acquired an advanced knowledge of the internationally important French language. page lifty-six Rau' 1 lillison, Costello, Cunnings,johnson, Gorton, Pratt, Hart, Pond, C.. Purcell, Hilt Riu 1 li Purnell, Reed, Welrv, Ferrisuj Purtell, Miss Loomis, Gage, Dean, Craumer, Gardiner FORENSIC SOCIETY The Corning Free Academy Forensic Society or the Debating Club as it is better known, is a young organization, but it is already a very progressive one. The club was chartered two years ago and is still surviving in spite of the hardships all high-school activities must un- dergo getting started. Although the war has taken many of the club's good debaters into after-school work, it has provided, inevitably, many important topics for debate. Iiach year, the Senior members left from the preceding year's ranks choose ten -juniors and enough Seniors to lill the quota of twenty-live members. Members are chosen for their genuine interest in debating, for their ability, coopera- tion, and dependability. Therefore, one does not need a particularly high scholastic standing to debate, but must have the keen desire to find out the pros and cons of the subject. The debating society has had a very full and interesting year. At each meeting the members had an informal debate or round table discus- sion on a previously decided subject. The greatest amount of interest went to the interscholastic debates, when the club steps out against another highschool team. Four speakers prepare well in advance and the others in the club are pre- pared to challenge the opposing team on falla- cies or weakness in their arguments. One of the most interesting subjects debated was the timely question, Are War Marriages Wise? The Academy Round Table decided that the negative side was the winner, but there is still much dispute going on among the mem- bers. Also on the war were the other subjects discussed during the yearw the problems of world peace after the war, postwar problems, change of the voting age to eighteen, and construction of world highways. Pointers on technique and research material on the various subjects were given by Miss Bernadine Loomis, the faculty advisor. The debating society, by dealing with such vitally important questions obtains for its members a valuable knowledge of world problems of use now and after the war. page fifty-seven l l Rau 1 Mrs. .Xmey,Tel1an, Herbert, W.Wentlerl1th, l'lern1ng,Osbo'ne, Berlin, Bonitnve, Kenney, Purtell, T.

It consists of one repre- sentative from each homeroom who, each Wednesday morning, has charge of the sale of defense stamps in his homeroom. The goal for which each room strives is IOOCZQ for four weeks in succession. Then they receive a small American flag, which is presented in Assembly. When it has received five such flags, the room is given a larger flag. When these flags are presented to the representative, the entire homeroom stands up to show that they are keeping their pledge to their country. The sales have gradually increased, and many devices have been begun to help the people remember their money. Attractive signs, poetry, posters, and clever announcements told us that Tomorrow is the day. Later a store was opened in the Hill Echo room. Those who couldn't remember their money in the morning could bring it in the afternoon and get credit for their homeroom. Towards the end of the year the sales increased to a very high degree because competition had been stimulated and the homerooms were all striving for the most flags. In April, we set our goal for a S900 jeep, the money to be earned during the month. The school was elated to hear, the first day of the collection, that we had raised S1 loo. Then we set our goalfulf North- side can buy two, we can buy three, starting another arousing contest. page fifty-eight R rw: Qiingliana, Fleming Rau 1: Kunvan, Cummings, lhinpum, l'r.1tr, Miss Cluie, McMahon,l'ux1d,Gags l ART CLUB Those industrious students, who draw so admirably with their yellow pencils or smatter in water colors with many-colored brushes, found it such fun in their school period that they formed a club and called it the Art Club. Because they like new objects to draw and paint, they originated the idea of meeting once a month, or maybe more, at the home of one of the members. Informal meetings of this type prove very entertaining and every one can relax in an easy chair, instead of sitting on the hard wooden stools in the art room and sketch a pretty bowl of fruit or, perhaps, an artistic arrangement of flowers. Every meeting is planned to lit their appetites as well as their ambitions and they quickly go to work on the refresh- ments served to prove that they like something else besides art. At the elections in the beginning of the year, Priscilla Pratt was elected president and Rose Ann Stack, vice-president. Miss Elsie Clute, the art instructor, is the faculty advisor on anything pertaining to art. At Christmas time, Ross Ann Stack held a tea for the young artists at her home. Here, instead of sketching, they talked about books and art. By such discussion they further their knowledge of art in general and sometimes apply new ideas from their discussion into their sketching. Well-rounded lives are certainly lived by these students, for they hike around Spencer Hill or carry their pencils and paints to some other scenic spot near Corning to sketch to their heart's content. Trees, birds, horses, or even cows found standing in their pastures devouring the green grasses, are favorite sub- jects of the artists. They never tire of going on these sketch trips to find more and more of nature's beauties that they haven't had time to sketch before. ln school the artists made the posters for the Senior Play and did a fine iob of spatter-printing on them. Other posters that are seen hanging on the bulletin-boards were done by their will- ing hands also, for the Club has volunteered its services to any city club which needs posters for such purposes as War Bond drives and Red Cross appeals. page lifry-nine page sixty CHORAL READING CLUB Raw 1: ll, Purcell, Mann, Cunnings, Trevena, Carlton, Telian, Mandzak, Saunders, Rogers, Trask I Raw z: Pratt, Lyonshjacobson, Higgins, Winder, Gardiner, Hilt, Gorton, C. Purcell Row grjohnson, McAndrew, Keeler, Gage, Dean, Smith, Peterson The Choral Reading Club was organized about four years ago by Miss'Grace I. Tobey. The club's purpose is to arrange various poems and short works effectively by using different voice groups for contrast. The male and female voices are classified into light and dark types which may be combined or used separately according to the effect desired. Last fall in assembly, the club presented its interpretation of Stephen Vincent Benet's dramatic poem, They Burned the Books. The harshness of the Nazi New Order, the gentleness of a loving mother, the courageousness of a teacher were all felt by the audience through the medium of the contrasting voice qualities. This vivid and timely program not only demonstrated the ability of the Choral S akers but also im ressed the student bod with the im ortance of the rcat masters in 1. , P Y S iterature.

Mem- bership is uite an honor for these students, for it involves intelligence, responsibility, service to the school, and the ability to get along with others. After the first few weeks of school, the staff is put to work taking charge of the book exchange. This involves the selling of the students books and the handling of their money. Another duty of the Library Staff is the routine tasks of any librarian. In their extra study riod, they help Miss Cole the librarian, by keeping the library attractive, making decisions as to ffbrary policies and helping the students find various ty s of books and information. Of course, the staff has social activities too. n the winter, a tea is given for the members of the faculty by the staff. Joint parties are enjoyed with the Northside and Painted Post Library Staffs each year. And occasionally the staff has private luncheons and other parties. The outstanding project undertaken by the Library Staff this year was the handling of the Victory Book Campaign, through which they collected I157. usable books. A staff member assumed responsi- bility for each homeroom. Posters, a special assembly announcement, and person-to- rson appeals were used in getting the students to bring in their own, and their neighbors' books. hrough their time and effort, the campaign in C.F.A. was a great success. After one year's service, each member has earned the right to wear the Library Staff pin. The mem- bers are truly proud of these pins, and well they might be, for through their hard work under the guidance of Miss Cole, they have made our library something to take pride in.

Early in September officers were elected. David Hornung was elected President, Eileen Goff, Vice-President, and Marilyn Decker was chosen to do double duty as Secretary and Treasurer. The club held many interesting meetings and took hikes around Spencer Hill. The hikers were accompanied by Mr. Ferris, the club faculty advisor, who commented on the various types of vegeta- tion and animal life which they came upon in their travels. Several parties were enjoyed by the mem- bers. One of the most successful parties was given as the result of a contest held with the purpose of getting more members for the club. Marion Aldam's group took the credit for bringing in the most members, while john Purcell's losing team cheerfully gave the party as the penalty for losing. Everyone proclaimed the party a great success. The last major event participated in by the club was the planting of trees on Spencer Hill. This year, following the established custom over fifteen hundred trees were planted. The event was attended by a lot of good, hard work and of course loads of fun. CAMERA CLUB Raw 1: E.

Believe it or not they get almost as much a kick out of being photogra hed as they do in taking pictures themselves. Our camera fans have been on their own this year an have used up rolls of film, taking snaps of dear old Alma Mater as well as of football and baseball games. But taking pictures isn't their only hobby, for if anyone was snooping around Mr. Fielding's lab one dark night, he would have found the camera fiends busily enlarging negatives. They did a fine job, too, didn't they, Mr. Norder? Everyone agreed that it was great fun and they plan to do much more enlarging before summer vacation rolls around. g Rau 1 Pilme, Sexern, Dunbar Rau 1: Hughes, IellifI, Pmutv, Wfullf Kim 3 Plan, Xlrs l-ram, Nlrs.

Representatives were chosen from each home- room to collect the contributions. Announce- ments were made at assembly and notices were put on the blackboard in each room. Several of the students took part in plays which were broadcast locally. The quota set for the school was met and oversubscribed, and, at the end of the week, IUOSI of the students were members of the 'Iunior Red Cross. The money collected was turned over to the Corning branch of the lunior Red Cross. K, X.. STUDENT COUNCIL The junior High School Student Council functions like that of the Senior High. The officers and council members were elected by the students soon after school began. The candidates for office stood up on the stage in Assembly and gave campaign speeches. Those elected were: Robert Prouty, President, Jean Wolff, Vice-President, Eleanor Knickerbocker, Secretary, and Richard jelliff, Treasurer. The Council's first activity was a play given in assembly, called His First Shave, and it was greatly enjoyed by the entire student body. The junior High Schoolers also held several social hours in the gym. f Rau 1 l7eXlntl1,D1K1axia,Plnllips Rau J Zimmer. Xlrs. Halliday, Maxwell NOON HOUR COUNCIL What to do? What to do?

Sometimes there was a quiz or a spelling bee. Other times they held dances. And once, best of all an amateur hour was held, in which everyone took part. Whatever it was, the stu- dents were always sure of a good time. Lefr lo R1qffl.'Mr. Duncan, Marvin, lone, HOME ECONOMICS CLUB Our most expert homemakers comprise this club. They are all adept at sewing fine seams and cooking delicious dishes. Their energy at present is directed mostly at sewing necessary articles for the Red Cross.
