Our aim is the creation of a year book that will be significant not only now but in the years to come.

On the frigate in bold letters was the name, Freshman Class, '5O . This little boat was beginning a happy voyage of four years. Under the leadership of the ship's officers W Richard Staelens, Patricia Boyden, Edward Laczynski and Marylou Staelens H the happy crew cast olf. One of the mem' bers of our company, Edward Laczynski, played on the varsity football team. A few of the Freshmen also took part in dramatics during the year. Patricia Boy' den, William Leno, Richard Anderson and Allen Shumway gave an example of their talent in Keep on the Sunny Side , a threefact play, and Facing the Future , a one' act play. One beautiful day the following September the Ship of '50 dipped its sails into the wind. This time the officers were Irving Milewski, Frances Skarzynski, Marilyn White and Charles Pielock. The autumn months came with football as the highlight. Charles Pielock, Gilbert Plante and Edward Laczynski represented the Sophomores on the squad with Allen Shumway as team manager. Corinne Warger and Marilyn White, two peppy lassies, were selected as cheerleaders. The Dramatic Club presented a threefact play, Peck's Bad Boy , starring Corinne Warger, Patricia Boyden and Francis Podlesney. The most awaited season, basketball, finally arrived and six members of the Sophof more class, Irving Milewski, Charles Pielock, Lyndon Scott, Edward Laczynski, Gilbert Plante and john Stokarski played during the winter of '48, A little more experienced, and a little more serious, the crew planned the Sopho- more Hop, which was held on April 15. Everyone helped to make the happy event one long to be remembered. The third year found the Class of 'SO with Kenneth Weston, Patricia Boyden, Corinne Warger and Lyndon Scott as officers. Harriet Wysk was the new Junior cheerleader. Many of the boys in the junior class were outstanding in sports that season. Two of the Junior girls, Harriet Wysk and Marilyn Hawkins played on the girls' basketball team. A few members of our class were in the Dramatic Club play, Here Comes Patricia . Kenneth Weston, captain of our crew, was chosen as representative of D.H.S. and Franklin County at the Good Government Day Program, which was held in Boston. twenty-nine On May 13, the biggest event of the season, the Junior Prom, was held. Everyone worked hard, but we were rewarded for our work, as the Prom was a huge success. The gym was decorated as a summer garden. Marilyn White was chosen Queen, with Marilyn Hawkins and Marylou Staelens as her attendants. The last year found the ship '50 entitled The Senior Class . Officers for the new year were Kenneth Weston, Marilyn White, Frances Skarzynski and Francis Podlesney. One of the spectacular events of the year was the ArmsfDeerfield football game with Choo-Choo Laczynski making a total of 5 touchdowns. Charles Pielock, Lyndon Scott, Kenneth Weston, Irving Milewski, Gilbert Plante, Gerald Hosley and Stanley Valeski also made some thrilling plays to give Deerfield a 37'0 win. Marilyn White, one of our most ambitious members, was chosen as Editor-in'chief of the Tattler . Due to injury, Frances Skarzynski was replaced by Marilyn Hawkins on the cheer- ing squad. Lyndon Scott was elected senator to represent Deerneld High School and Kenneth Weston was again nominated representative for the Good Govemment Day Program. Nineteen members of the class went on the annual trip to Washington. Chairman of the committee was Allen Shumway. Cofchairmen were Corinne Warger and Stanley Valeski. During the year, Charles Pielock, Lyndon Scott, Edward Laczynski, Kenneth Wes' ton, John Stokarski, Irving Milewski and Gilbert Plante played on the varsity basketball team. Marilyn Hawkins was the first team star from the Senior class on the girls' var- sity team and was elected captain, while Patricia Boyden and Evelyn Billings played on the junior varsity. Marilyn White served as an efhcient manager. On February 7, Mr. Collette announced that Corinne Warger was the D.A.R. Pilgrim from the Class of '5O. The Student Council was reorganized under the direction of Miss Maiewski. Ken' neth Weston was elected president, and several Seniors were active members. Many thanks go to Miss Daley and Miss Connelly, our able advisers, who did everything in their power to make the Class of '50 a success. After sailing through a few rough, but mostly calm seas, we finally reached the harbor of Commencement on June 22, 1950. MARYLou STAELENS thirty Class Prophecu june: 1975 Allen Shumway, gossip columnist for the New 'York Times, has collected the foli lowing bits of news about the present occupations of the graduating class of 1950, of Deerfield High School. Henry Kisloski, always a great bluffer, is now a wellfknown magician employed by New York society. His assistant, Harvey the White Rabbit, is none other than our old classmate, Gilbert Plante, in disguise, Muriel Parsons is much sought after as a spiritualist-one who calls on the spirits of the deceased. Muriel was always rather mysterious, anyway. Frances Skarzynski, our second Florence Nightingale, has just collapsed from overwork. We feel sure, however, that she will soon be back at work, cheering the sick. Claude Belair, the painter of the well-known Cinderella , heard recently that his masterpiece inspired the composition of the new song by the same name. Lyndon Scott is well established in a good business. His motto is, We Always Have the Last Word . Couldn't you guess that he's an undertaker? Lyndon's first assistant is John Stokarski, who doubles as carpenter and publicity agent. Who is the wealthy widow who was seen with Irving Milewski at the Cotton Club the other night? Could this bluebeard be planning to add another fortune to his bank account? Marylou Staelens has become the world's most popular model. The agency for which she works is headed by none other than our old friend, Gerald Hosley. Hosley's models are more popular than the Powers Models used to be. Charles Pielock has become the idol of millions of basketball fans with his world's record of 200 points in one game! Francis Podlesney and William Leno have succeeded Abbott and Costello as movie comedians under their new names, Spud and Bud. Be sure to see them in their next picture, K.P. Duty . Have you heard of the latest exploits of the leader of the Soviet New Deal, Mr. Andrewski Grybkoffski? He has completely reformed the Russian Government. Stanley Valeski has made a model of his new atomic powered airplane, which, ac- cording to him, will have the latest equipment, including a dance hall, swimming pool, television, and many other modern conveniences to keep the passengers from becoming bored on roundfthefworld trips. Beverly Lannaville, a second Dorothy Dix, says she will help you to overcome any problems you might have. Her advice is especially helpful if yours is a love problem. During a row with one of her assistants last week, Corinne Warger, noted chemist, was seriously injured when several tubes filled with new hair rinse exploded. Miss Warger's last remark before lapsing into unconsciousness was, I am glad that stuff wasn't allowed on the market. It might have ruined someone's hair. Kenneth Weston, a noted inventor, has Hnally succeeded in his project of building a rocket ship. He plans to attempt a trip to the moon sometime in the near future. tl: i:'tyom:c 9 Marilyn White has been promoted to the position of Editorfin-chief of Kelleher's Komics , the most popular children's magazine in the country. Have you visited Madam Mara's Beauty Salon? Marilyn Hawkins, its owner, guarantees her work to be of the finest quality. Harriet Wysk, her manicurist, promises to give you those captivating nails which are so sought after. Edward Dembek has become famous as the leader of the great band, Ed's Eager Eight . Nancy Jackson and Louise Jenney are the proud owners of a large ranch called Cactus Grove , located in Montana. Their feature attraction is Edward Laczynski, the singing cowboy. Leonard Galisa and George Gromacki have announced that their new restaurant, The Petit Place , will be open for business on July 4. Evelyn Billings has pust published a new book, the fifth of a series called The Adventures of Amorous Annie . Frederick Skalski has inherited fifty thousand dollars from a rich uncle. With his money, he plans to build an amusement park called Uncle's Follies . Richard Anderson was just elected mayor of New York City. Among his pro' posed reforms are an Indian Reservation, new television sets for every family, and a TrifCity Allegiance with New Jersey and Boston. I conclude this account of the present whereabouts and activities of the class with this comment: We've done pretty well for ourselves in the past twentyffive years. PATRICIA A. BIIYDEN Prophecu Un The Prophetess It was a clear, June day in 1975, when I decided to take a short ride in my heli- copter. I was flying along at a good clip, admiring the beautiful view, when suddenly another helicopter approached me from the rear and crowded me off my side of the cloud. I noticed immediately that it was a state flyer . He proceeded with the regu' lar routine, leaving me a little ticket with a date for court appearance. I entered the court room the next day with my lawyer. Shortly after our arrival, everyone rose for the entrance of the judge. I glanced at this creature and I couldn't believe my eyes. What I saw was a woman, clothed in a black robe, and believe it or not, it was Patricia Boyden. I was certainly dumbfounded! Luckily there were two or three cases before mine, as I needed a few minutes to recuperate from the shock. I was called to the witness stand and took my oath. Pat smiled and recognized me immediately. The case proceeded with the regular, Yes, your Honor, and no, your Honor, until finally, I was acquitted. I remained in the court room in hopes of seeing Pat for a few seconds. She finally appeared-without that terrible looking robe- and rushed up to me. We had a grand time talking over our experiences since our days at D.I'I.S. I After leaving her, I flew more cautiously back home. My mind drifted to the wonderful days we had spent at D.H.S. and I wondered what had happened to all of my other classmates. - MARILYN G.

Paasoivs tliirtyfivc Junior Class Historu It was in the memorable year of '47, on the third of September, that fifty excited Freshmen entered Deerfield High School. The first few days were rather hectic, but in due time we settled down to the general routine. When the time came to elect our class officers we chose the following: President, Anthony Farrickg Vicefpresident, Regina Klepadlog Secretary, Wanda Piekarskig and Treasurer, Robert Thompson. Our class advisers were Mrs. Clark and Mr. Owers. Our Freshman class was well represented in sports. Those of us who were not on the teams diligently followed all the sports events. The main event of our Freshman year was the Halloween Square Dance when we were initiated into the social life of Deerfield High. We returned in September, 1948, with new conidence and the air of oldftimers. This year we had new faces not only among the student body but also on the faculty. The new faculty members included Mr. Collette, succeeding Mr. Goodwin as Principalg Miss McKay, who replaced Mrs. Davis, and Mrs. Ray, who became a new homefroom teacher for some of the Sophomores. With the assistance of our class advisers, Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Ray, we elected class officers as follows: President, Donald Pielock, Vicefpresident, Jayne Whitney, Secretary, Betty Raffag and Treasurer, Paul Legac. Several of our Sophomore boys reported for football, and five of them received D's .' The basketball tryouts resulted in our Sophomore boys making up the main cog of the second team. Cheerleader tryouts were held and Betty Raffa was selected for her splendid efforts. In girls' basketball, Janet Otto and Marie Plante were members of the varsity team, and Betty jennis, Betty Raffa, Marion Boro, Sally Farrick, and Maryann Maynard were prominent players on the second team. September, 1949, found the Juniors happy, indeed, to be back. Whether we were more anxious to get back to school or to receive our class rings, we dare not say. This year a new faculty member, Mr. Beres, replaced Mrs. Ray, and he, in turn became a homefroom teacher for some of us. . Our class officers were chosen as follows: President, Paul Legacg Vicefpresident, Marie Planteg Secretary, Betty Raffag and Treasurer, Robert Peloskie. The Juniors were well represented in all sports. We were proud of Henry Zukowf ski and Vincent Podlesney, who played on the varsity basketball team, and Robert Hoy' noski, Robert Thompson and Robert Peloskie, who were the most valuable players on the second squad. The Junior girls who made the varsity basketball team were Janet Otto, Marie Plante, Sally Farrick, and Betty Raffa. Marion Boro was the assistant manager. Mary' ann Maynard and Betty jennis played on the second team. The juniors now had two cheerleaders: Betty Raffa, on the first team and Marion Boro, on the second team. The evening of May 5 brought our first big social event - the Junior Prom. The dancers all but swooned over the enchanting music of the Knights of Melody. The whole affair was one of the most successful in the history of D. H. S. Now that our junior Year has drawn to a close, next September will find us back as the Superior Seniors looking forward to the last and most exciting of our high school days. MARIE L.

Our mis' givings were soon quieted, for amidst the tumult and bewilderment, we found ourselves surrounded by Deerfield High School's friendly and reassuring atmosphere. Our class advisers, Miss Mansfield and Miss Peterson, helped us to elect the folf lowing officers: President, Darrell Brown: Vicefpresident, Barbara Farrickg Secretary, Eleanor Nieskoskig Treasurer, Janet Ware. Dorothy Podlesney was chosen Freshman cheerleader this year. Several Freshmen boys participated in football, basketball and baseball, assuring us that the Class of '52 would have a number of sports stars among its ranks. The girls, also, had a large representation in basketball and softball. Dramatic talent was likewise evident in our class, as we watched Richard Peloskie, Eleanor Nieskoski and Sue Brown perform in Here Comes Patricia . Throughout the year some students in our class had the distinction of being mem' bers of successful Poultry Judging Teams. ' The cofoperation which was displayed by the Class of 1952 in relation to charitf able propects deserves to be especially commended. Of the events that we attended, we shall especially remember the school dances and parties, and we shall always recall the fun we had in our club activities. During the year six classmates left: janet Ware, Barbara Thompson, Mary Stearns, Frances Apanell, Theodore Yeglinski and Vern Sumner. Gur Freshman year in high school successfully completed, we looked forward to making our second year at Deerfield as wonderful as the Hrst. Refreshed from our summer vacation, thirty-eight students returned in Septem- ber, 1949, as confident sophomores. Class officers chosen this year were: President, Halbert Shumwayg Vicefpresident, Marguerite Plante, Secretary, Clark Bridges and Treasurer, Patricia Cuff. William Thompson and Darrell Brown received D's for football. Patricia Cuff joined Dorothy Podlesney on the first team of the cheerleaders, while Marguerite Plante was elected to the second team. Jane Newcomb, Richard Peloskie and Sue Brown were members of the cast of the Dramatic Club's production, Almost Eighteen , presented under the direction of Miss Mansfield. When the basketball season rolled around, William Thompson, Stephen Savinski and Richard Peloskie played on the second team, with Halbert Shumway representing our class on the Midgets. Barbara Farrick, Patricia Cuff, and Marguerite Plante were chosen to play on girls' varsity basketball team, while Jane Newcomb, Eleanor Nieskoski, Sue Brown, Dorothy Podlesney, Rose Pos and ,jean Konvelski played on the second team. Throughout the year several Sophomore names appeared on the Honor Roll. These included: Darrell Brown, Patricia Cuff, Lois Dwight, john MacIntosh, Jane Newcomb, Marguerite Plante and Halbert Shumway. The past two.years, although seemingly short, have held for us a record of success' ful accomplishments. Now that we have reached the midfpoint of our high school days, we hope that the latter half will be as enjoyable and as full of pleasant memories as the first two years have been. A.

Pctcrson Sophumoies Freshmen Glass Histnru A new experience opened for us on September 7, 1949, when thirtyffour bewilf dered students entered D.H.S. as Freshmen. There were new faces everywhere and more names to remember as the day went on. After a few days when the excitement had calmed down, we selected class oflicers with the help of Miss McKay and Mr. Frigard, our temporary class advisers. They were: President, Alice Boydeng Vicefpresident, Richard Scoville, Secretary, Eunice Schiedingg Treasurer, Dorothy Gustavis. In December Mr. Beres was appointed our ofiicial class adviser. Pierre Plante, Frank Dudek, Frederick Thompson, Anthony Bechta, and Chester Wysk reported for football practice. Pierre Plante was later awarded a football letter. A new Freshman club was formed this year called the Crientation Club , under the direction of Miss Maiewski and Miss Peterson. The purpose of the club was to help us improve our relations with others and to learn the fundamentals of social cus' toms in preparation for future years. The following officers were elected: Edward Zdanowicz, president, Constance Zukowski, vicefpresidentg and Frank Dudek, secref tary and treasurer. Learning old and new cheers was one of our main achievements. When Christmas arrived, we presented a Christmas pageant for the assembly program in which all members of the club participated. After the new year started and midfyear exams were over, we learned the art of ballfroom dancing. Anthony Bechta and Constance Zukowski were chosen as representatives to the Student Council. Alice Boyden, as president of our class, was also a member. When basketball season rolled around Charles Vickowski, Chester Wysk, Richard Scoville, Edward Zdanowicz, Frank Dudek, Walter Paciorek, Pierre Plante and Fred Thompson were candidates for the team. - Three of our girls played on the second team of the girls' basketball squad. These included Nancy Maynard, Nancy Farrick and Ruth Naylor. Nancy Farrick was the peppy cheerleader elected from our class. George Spofford left us after Christmas vacation and moved to Vermont. Members of our class whose names were frequently found on the honor roll were Alice Boyden, William Harrison, Lucy Nartowicz, Pierre Plante, Barbara Sodoski, Virginia St. Peter and Edward Zdanowicz. The Aggie boys who belonged to the F.F.A. Chapter were Charles Parker, Charles Vickowski, Kenneth Graves, Chester Wysk, William Harrison, Frederick Thompson, Robert Wilson and Theodore Liguz. Some of the following projects were carried on by the Aggie boys: Charles Vickowski planed lumber for siding to put on his bam, Frederick Thompson overhauled and repainted a potato digger, Charles Parker overhauled and repainted a dump rake, Robert Wilson raised one acre of tobacco and onefhalf acre of cucumbers, William Harrison did farm work on his home farm and kept records of his home dairy products, Kenneth Graves also did home farm work and kept poultry records of his father's 2700 chickens. Charles Parker and William Harrison are 4-H Club members. As a 4fH project Charles Parker bought a pure bred Holstein. As this year draws to a close with thirtyfthree members remaining in our class, everyone is eagerly looking forward to the activities of our Sophomore year when we may be termed as upperclassmen .

Time off for the County Fair! Huge crowds, even the teachers were therc. To our first social they came in bunches To dance in time to the Rhythm Punchers. End, center, tackle, and guard - We hit Williamstown and hit 'em hard. The Washington Club sponsored a danccg Everyone was there, you could tell at a glance. We danced again for the Athletic Fundg Gaiety reigned for those who had come. At the Booster Game we tackled Leicesterg 'Twas the best game of the whole semester. The name of our play was Almost Eighteen Someday our names in bright lights may gleam The boys received their football letters: No other team could have done better. This was the day the girls had a chance To take a fellow to the Sadie Hawkins Dance. At last our Thanksgiving vacation came - The day for food and fun and game. Turners Falls was our first defeat, But there were other teams we beat. A Christmas Party was held in the gym, And dear old Santa came with a grin. School closed for our Christmas vacationg Food and presents were not rationed. Girls' basketball started today, Many games were played, here and away. Everyone took his books home to cram For the desired A on every exam. Winter vacation again came around With snow piled high upon the ground. The Washington Club Concert was held tonight For all-a treat and a great delight. Another vacation came our way And gave us all a chance to play.

Class Night adds to a happy year With work and fun that we hold so dear. On our Senior Picnic we went todayg We had lots of fun all the way. Graduation is here, at last With happy memories of the pHSt. fovtyfmx S There is a great deal more to education than may be derived from books and teachers and homework. The very essence of educaf tion is in preparing individuals, by construcf tive work and selffexpression, to become bet' ter citizens of the community, During our school years, our extrafcurricuf la activities have helped to make complete a uniaue pattern for the expression of the in' dividual through his studies and his social contacts. It is because so many always real' ize the benefits to be derived from these ac' tivities, that the achievement is always so commendable.
