The friendliness of Bill Barnes will stick with us all our days: And we'll remember Conrad With his quiet loyal ways. We'll never forget Bob Schleier Who helped with everythingg And the parties at Joan Male's house which made the rafters ring. Shirley with her foolishness Could always cause a ding And Leon was a Neadle, But was better known as Pin. We'll recall to mind Joan Kliesrath, A wonderful sport was she, And another Joan--Miss Adams Just as lively as could be. And Mike, another classmate, Was quite a whiz in math, And Peter with his wise cracks Could make the saddest laugh. We'll remember Stro and his harmony which we all loved so wellg And another, Clifford Decker who we just thought was swell. Paul Miller was our little guy --He wasn't very tallg And Miles and his fiddle Were nearly best of all. A new girl, Mary Prole Joined us in 1954: Her home was Bristol, England --She came from a foreign shore. We'll remember too, our teachers who guided us all the way, And prepared us--Oh so well For our graduation day. We'll remember each and every one As time begins to passg For we never could forget The friends we called our Class.

F .- Class History As our high school years draw to a close, we recall to mind many enjoyable experiences. We sponsored a very successful Leap Year Dance in our Freshman year, followed by a Pan- cake Supper. As Sophomores, we began our festivities by entertaining the entering Freshmen at a party. We held two dances, the Turkey Trot and the Shamrock Shuffle, and our Pancake Supper, which became an annual affair. The grand climax of our Sophomore days came when, in the spring, we received our class rings. Our Junior year was filled with activities, including our Pancake Supper, two dances, and a magic show. We also held our class picnic at White's Beach, and in June, before Mr. Bemard's departure for Plattsburg, we held a farewell party for him and his family at Duane Lake. Now we have achieved our position as Seniors. This year we have become ardent salesmen by selling the most magazines in the history of the school, conducting a Christmas card campaign, and selling school name bracelets and tie clasps. Our activities include two dances, a music show and our Pancake Supper, and we are eagerly awaiting our Senior Ball, Class picnic, Senior Banquet, and graduation. Our four years of high school have been happy and satisfying. As we look over our history, we recall many pleasant memories which we will carry with us as we leave Duanesburg Central, Entering Freshmen - 1951 Ioan Adams David Barbin William Bames Miles Bintz Wayne Blessing Terry Bullis Jeannette Cady Conrad Cobb Shirley Cobb Clifford Decker Michael Dryer Wayne Evans Frank Grant Ann Gross Marjorie Haviland Robert Hoffman Edmond Hulett Ioan Kliesrath Robert Lawrence Joan Male Marguerite Mattison Beverly Mericle Paul Miller Leon Neadle Michael Payst Dianne Putman Edward Putnam Margaret Schaeffer Robert Schleier Raymond Shafer Della Mae Smith Ronald Strobeck Patricia Trombley Lorraine Vosburgh William Weidman Charles Wilber Avery Wilson Katherine Wilson Barbara Zagata Peter Zubal
