History of Che Class of 1952 NE bright September morning in the year 1940, Danny Agle, Carl Bauer, Sue Bray- miller, Carl Chelius, Jimmy Cole, Freddy Haier, Nelson Hickling, Jim Gier, Marian Reed, Jane Rice, Bob Schumer, and Jack Strawbrich entered Mrs. Morgester’s first grade in the newly completed Eden Central School. Armed with pencils, tablets, and crayons, they were ready for the battle of readin’, writin’, and ’rithmetic. We put on two plays, ‘“‘Br’er Rabbit’? and ‘‘Lincoln’s Boyhood’’, in the second grade, and gained a new member, Clifford Palmeter. No one will forget the time Marian put hot water on the goldfish. Third and fourth grade memories are especially clear in our minds. Nothing was as enjoyable as our trips to the woods and Miss Board- man’s noon-hour stories. Also, these years brought us five new friends--Marlene Bruns, Sam Catapano, Dick Hornung, Roger Mashke, and Joyce Papich. Fifth grade passed quickly, and we found we were beginning the final and most memorable year of our elementary grades. We presented an Irish play in assembly and held a picnic behind the school at the end of the year. The theme of our graduation into the Junior High was the United Nations, and Carl Bauer, Joyce Papich, and Marlene Bruns were the main speakers. Herb Bogner and Bob Sloma joined us during this year. Seventh grade gave us an entirely different curriculum, and also four new additions to our class--Mary Ann Catalino, Jan Jakiel, Irene Krycia, and Peggie Sherman. Gerald Schmittendorf and Marlene Bruns were elected presidents of the respective home- rooms. During the ninth grade, we became conscious of the importance and advantages of participating in the school government. Sam was elected president of the Junior High Student Association and helped promote the purchase of a New York State flag for the auditorium. Among our new class acquaintances were Ray Dayka, Alice Domin, George Gates, John Kozak, Charlotte May, Donna Neifer, Edgar Preischel, and John Salewski. The evidence of our readiness to enter the Senior High was indicated by our ninth grade graduation. ' ‘‘The Pigskin Hop’’ was the name given to our first dance, the Sophomore Hop. It was a great success with most of the class participating. Gary Sargent and Paul and Allen Wollenberg, this year’s new members, made friends thick and fast. We found our Junior year to be almost as exciting as our Senior year. Nelson Hickling was elected Junior Class President, and we received our long-desired school rings. Sue Braymiller and Gerald Schmittendorf were selected as king and queen of our festive Junior Prom, ‘‘Mardi Gras.’’ Valerie Mott, our Editor, and Mary Munich joined our ranks late in the year. ; Then came the happy, busy year in dear old 204. What a merry time we had as we sold notebooks and banners, planned our yearbook, and gave a fish dinner at the town hall. A magazine subscription campaign with Nelson Hickling as captain of the boys’ team and Marlene Bruns as captain of the girls’ team was also conducted to raise money to finance our yearbook and Washington trip. The arrival of Sharon Kreckel and Pat Slaughenhaupt completed the present members of our Senior Class. We shall always remember Mrs. Pierce for her capable leadership as Senior advisor as well as her cheery good morning and bulging briefcase. After the Senior Ball, our picnic, and Regents, we shall pass through the gateway. of graduation, but the haunting memory of ‘‘Eden Forever”’ will linger always in our hearts, as we set forth on our quest to seek the Magic Castle of Camelot. e Oele@ I C5 G2
