GAHIMER Published by THE SENIOR CLASS GLENS FALLS HIGH scHooL GLENS FALLS, NEW YORK ,479 ' 7 Q In the ever-changing world of today each individual has an increasingly important role to play. Events of world significance occur daily. affecting the lives of people every- where. That is why we feel that this has been an important yearg important not only to us who are about to move into the world actually on our own for the first time, but also to citizens of every country and territory of the world. While our yearbook is a portrait of this important year as it unfolded for us here within the school. a year of important events evolved beyond the limits of the classroom. many of which were at work shaping our futures. A new kind of movies called 3-D came out and a stereopticon craze swept the country. Colored television finally became a reality. A jet plane soared through the sky at 1.327 M.P.H.. twice the speed of sound. In the field of literature 'fThe Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale was a top seller. Winston Churchill. Prime Minister of Great Britain. was announced as the winner of the Nobel Prize for literatureg General of the Army George C. Marshall. who has served as Secretary of State. Secretary of Defense. and Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces. was announced as winner of the prize for peace. . On the political front Dwight D. Eisenhower was president, and John Foster Dulles. Secretary of State. attended a series of international conferences. The split in the ranks of the Democratic Party remained while the Republican Party divided on issues of power of the executive and McCarthyism. The general cost of living remained above normal with some prices climbing to new high levels, notably the price of coffee. After a little more than three years of fighting by United Nations troops to maintain freedom and put down communist aggression in Korea. an armistice was signed at Panmunjon. Korea, in July of 1953. To us who are now about to move out into the world. this year has been important not only because of its national significance but also because it has been our last year in high school. In high school we have learned to apply ourselves to a diversity of activities and studies. we have learned better to understand the world. our country, and our government, but most of all we have learned to win friends and to cooperate with one another. This has been our last year among all our friends, many of whom we have known since our first day in kindergarten, our last year in which to decide what our futures will be. As we leave this building which has been our home for our last two years in high school, we take with us not only a preparation to take our places in the fateful march of national and world events but also grateful memories of everyone and everything connected with our school. Consequently, the Red and Black Staff has tried to portray for all of us in this, the 1954- issue of the yearbook, the scenes. friends, and activities that will linger in our memories as . . . A PORTRAIT OF AN IMPORTANT YEAR, OUR YEAR. 2 : El STEPHEN KINGSLEY Editor-in-Chief 4 Senior Ring Crest .,...... Title Pages .......iii.,..ii Foreword ........... Table of Contents ,H....

This is a daily occurrence for the girls. Lined up in front of the mirrors. their hands deftly apply the lipstick and they're once more ready to go out and face their public. namely the students of CFHS. What's the celebration? Well, you know, it's just one of those crazy ideas being brought to life by the senior boys. Never a dull moment when they're around. i THE WIND BLEW, THE FEATHERS FLEW These high-stepping gals, feathers fly- ing, have added spice and pep to our football games by their gay outfits and snappy routines. 'rags What fun! Time and time again we tried to fix the flower bedecked heart in just the right angle. At long last, after many hours of work, banged fingers, and hleary eyes, it was done. Not until then did we realize that hard work and trouble all helped to make the Spinster Swing a huge success. Dance . . . Dance . . . Dance.

Flowers, flowers, and more flow- ers. Hours spent trying to decide which corner would be best for that particular scene. At long last, everything seems to he ready. Whoops, don't forget that trellis! Ahh. Isn't it swell?l It's time out as the cheerleaders take the field. All together, let's yell. The cheer dies away as the players once more take their positions on the field. lt's almost time for the hell to ring, signaling the close of the fifth period. There it is, and with it a sound like a herd of cattle. What is it? Nothing but the sound of hurrying kids on the Way to lunch. The line looks a mile long, hut finally the food is before you and it is time to dig in.

The boys went up to their waists in mud to get the pillars at Crockwell's. The girls were drenched with rain getting twigs for the flowers. The whole class spent every extra min- ute making pastel carnations. is N ., 'F' - ,, t The Queen is crowned by last yez1r's Queen, Therese Carusone.

As we walked through the stately and massive white doorway and descended the platform among ropes of lavender flowers, we realized that the dream of our Coronation Prom was a reality at last. A garden scene behind French doors, misty orchid angel hair, beautiful pastel carnations- were just a few of the things that greeted our eyes as we danced under a canopy of lavender, green, and white streamers that draped gracefully to the glistening white pillars which surrounded the room. The throne was highlighted by a sparkling crown from which curtains of soft green net fell to the platform. Our own formal-a wonderful nightg it was like waltzing in a dream world. In spite of the misty eyes as the band played HGoodnight Sweetheartf' we were satisfied knowing that we had made this Prom our own success. 2l ' ' , 4 ,. v' ' .

SYNOPSIS This comedy, based on the teen age best seller of the same name by Margaret Lee Runbeckf' deals with a group of American tourists and their amusing dramatic experiences in Mexico City. The main interest is provided by three girls whose pursuit of romance furnishes the background for a number of mirthful episodes. Lambie Prowder wore glasses and found Dorothy Parker all too right about them. She had brains, but what's the good of brains to a 16-year-old girl? What she needs is charm and plenty of it, if she is to compete with Horty and Corney, a wonderful, grown-up 17 with all that it takes to make life worth living in terms of attracting the other sex. The three girls are packed off with a chaperon for a summer of art study in Mexico. The entire action takes place in the patio of the Casa Maximilian in Mexico City. ACT ONE-Scene 1: Afternoon, July.

MPINK MAGIC Presented by Senior Class CONFUSION STIMULATES LIGHT THEME By Florence Mcllvaine fPost-Star, April 3, 195411 'iAn entertaining performance of the three-act comedy. c'Pinl.' Magic, was given lay the Glens Falls High School Senior Class last night in the school auditorium under the direction of George Burns Smith, assisted by John Van Der Voort. A large audience attended. Wllhe play itself was not as substantial as some offerings of the school dramatics department in recent years. but the cast was talented and competent . . . the play was light-hearted variation on the Cinderella theme. with some confusion as to the identity of Prince Charming adding a new twist. 'iloan 0'C0nnor was appealing in the leading role of Ursula HLamlnie Prowder. who emerges from her chrysalis at the end of the third act to discover that she is uperfeetly normal and isn't going to grow up to be an eccentric genius. William Prescott was likable as Wally Grant. who discovers Lambie's true Charm and worth. Martha Dorlon and Mary Lou Heron were well cast as Lamhie's roommates at the Casa Maximilian, where they are members of a painting group chaperoned by the youthful and attractive Mrs. Candee. a part well played lay Joann Taft. Dale Granger was excellent as Kimball Colby. whom Lamhie mistakes as her first love. Are we going to have a chance to meet all those wonderful people in the American Colony? w -'lffenxusfas sf 1 x' .1 mn. 1 1 min A I Mx I. i 'hum Hey what goes' 'I'm only trying to hock a watch. 4'This is Mrs. Candee, our chaperonf' Wfhe cast included a number of good character and comedy roles, and these were skillfully handled by Betsey Dickinson as the sultry and unscrupulous Estrellita De Varisg Lois Owen and .Ianice Thorne as Clara and Hester Hotch, spinster sisters whose greatest thrill in Mexico is meeting Beulah-Mae Fezenden, a lady lecturer whom they once heard in Toledo. Carol ,Iohnson's portrayal of Miss Fezenden was a fine piece of caricature. Norman Block was excellent as the volatile Mexican art teacher whose sensibilities are strained beyond bearing by the daubings of his class, and David Robertson was convincing in the part of lose, manager of the Casa. Fay Adgate gave a skillful portrayal of the Queen for a Day who has been traveling on the strength of her personality ever since winning a radio contest. 4'The mature roles, often a weak spot in school plays, were unusually well handled. Lucille Ott and Wesley Dyckman were Mr. and Mrs. Elmo Thorndike Prowder, Lambie's famous parents, and Jean Lyke was the gracious Mrs. Dwight Colby, Kimball's mother. James Hart took the part of George Crater, his uncle. Mac Beckwith and Mark Cleghorn lent a nice touch of authenticity to the scene as a pair of Mexican musicians. James Mellom as the Guide, Fred Rogers as Holt, Vickie Duell as the waitress, Claire McCormick as an Indian and Peter Whitten, William Donohue, Judy Watson, and Mary Sullivan as dancers all added their bit to the south-of-the-border atmosphere. The single setting, the patio of the Casa, was extremely attractive and colorful. A string ensemble under the direction of Maurice C. Whitney provided entr'acte music. Toledo? A charming city!

An experimental dra- matic device that has done much to free drama from the necessity of confining all action to a single setting is the abolition of realistic scenery. The Sophomore Dra- matics Club has chosen a play in seven scenes that flow without pause because scenes are changed in full view of the audience. Thus, within the confines of a short play, the audience can follow the hero through an entire day.

ANNUAL CONCERT by ORCHESTRA and CHOIR Conductor-MAURICE C. WHITNEY March 17. 1954- ln November, Glens Falls High School served as host to over 300 students from forty neighboring schools at the Sectional All-State program of the New York State School Music Association. These students came to form a band, orchestra and choir, under the direction of George A. Christopher of Port Washington, New York, Dr. Moshe Paranov of Hartford, Connecticut, and H. Dudley Mairs of Babylon, New York, and presented a program in our auditorium on November 21. Twenty-six of our own student musicians participated. Eight of our students also took part in the All-State program in Syracuse in early December, in which the entire state was repre- sented. At this event, Glens Falls was honored when Mark Cleghorn was chosen concert-master of the 100-piece orchestra. Our high school orchestra received a very high honor when it was invited to provide music for the Anniversary Convocation of the New York State Board of Regents in Albany on April 8-the only high school orchestra to receive such an invitation. In May all the music organizations will again participate in the NYSSMA Spring Competition-Festivals, where we hope to perpetuate our tradition of highest ratings. VIOLINS-M.

Coach Putt LaMay's Indians, played top-drawer basketball all the way, captured the Northern Conference crown for the second season in a row by virtue of last night's triumph, fashioned before a capacity crowd of customers. The win closes out the season for Glens Falls with a record of 15 wins against three defeats and a 9-1 record in Conference play. Victory over the sharpshooting Forts gave Glens Falls a clean sweep at home for the season. Each of the setbacks incurred by the team was also avenged on the Sherman Ave. court. As the final buzzer sounded, the Indian rooting section exploded with joy. LaMay's first string, which was yanked with three minutes to go, bounced off the bench, whipped Lahlay into the air and carried him off the court as the fans went wild. LaMay had reason to be happy with his charges. Glens Falls came up with a superb display of defensive basketball which kept the Forts off balance throughout the contest. This, coupled with e ll t b d' U d ' ' xce en re oun mr, an accuracy from the field and from the foul line, proved too tough a combination for the Flying Forts to handle.

A basketball perfectionist could find little at fault in the display cooked up by Coach La3lay'S cagers last night.

This year the club, as a project, presented the school with a whirlpool bath which was installed in the athletic office for the benefit of the entire school. lt provided free treatment for bruises, sprains, strains, and twists. Such a device is a unique gift in that very few high schools are fortunate enough to own one. The club worked checking hats and coats, ushering, and keeping people off the court at basketball games as well as having programs printed and selling them at the games. During the year Varsity GH sponsored four dances after games, with the school dance band playing for two of these dances. In addition it supported such organizations as The March of Dimes.

This may be something to improve our record as a school, such as the improvement of punctuality or the care of the building. It may be something we do for others, such as the support of a school in Greece, the March of Dimes, or Bundle Days. Or it may be something We do for ourselves, such as financing trips to out-of-town games, the promotion of the Activity Ticket, our club programs, assembly programs, or highway safety. The Student Council provides an organized Way in which to discuss and decide issues and activities with which we are concerned. Once the decision is made, it also provides a group of people who do the work that puts our plans into operation.

However, the history of our class covers three years- The happiest years of our lives. September of 1951 was a beautiful month. the leaves were already brilliant reds and yellows-bright for a proud beginning. But we sophomores were quite green as we crept through the great halls of high school. We had the same growing pains that generations of sophomores have had before us. We trod the path from study hall to Rowleys and glamorized poor Minerva with lipstick. Our lessons were painful but helpful. Mr. Happy subdued us with a benevolent despotism, and Latin quizzes nearly proved our downfall as Miss Bazinet ticked off the fateful seconds: HOne minute, fifty seconds, twenty seconds, nine, four, three. two, onev-hand in your papers, kidslw We had battle scars from bumping our heads on the fire extinguishers. Could we do anything right? Coach K. swept the Varsity boys from their places on the basketball court and gave Jayvee reign as the Nbig five. The sophomores had their moments of triumph, and the class knew that the curtain was going up on The Best There Is as they looked toward the Junior year. By the time snow had fallen in our junior year, we were a little less scared and a little more confident. Stark black trees were outlined against a bleak, gray sky. Behind the frosty big windows of the new high school, we rushed from place to place: getting lost, finding our way around the cafeteria, being tardy at 8:15 but happy at 2:30, admiring the beautiful new auditorium and the wonderful gymnasium, taking on new responsibilities in a new atmosphere. We'll never forget when the water main broke. The gym floor was ruined, but to make matters worse, exams went on as scheduled. St. Mary,s bowed to us in football as well as in basketball. Drama Night brought :'Tliirty Minutes In a Streetf' Our new black onyx class rings now flashed on our fingers, and at last the big event of our year came around-- Coronation Prom. We never dreamed that the gym could be turned into such a ball room-a glory of white pillars, green net, orchid angel hair, flower ropes, and a sparkling throne. We saw our radiant queen crowned while the orchestra played Pomp and Circamstancef' Fall of our senior year! The air is golden and the world looks new and full of promise. This is our year, a whirlwind, a wonderful year! lt all goes by so fast. Weire seniors, really seniors, and they look up to us, you know. Teachers seem to have become younger, or maybe we've grown older. We must choose our caps and gowns! we must decide on announcements! we must read more! we must select our college! we must decide on a job! we must practice long hard hours at sports to create our winning teams! we must decide on a theme for our yearbook! . . . we must do so many, many things. Countless other events are wedged in. The Whitehall game was a heartbreaker, five top men injured, a hard fight and a tie for Northern Conference. Senior Recital, a reality. Our yearbook starts rolling toward the press-pictures, copy and more copy . . . the need to write sparkling obituaries for 130 people . . . learning the difference between a vertical and a horizontal picture! Adstaff money soars to 32400-yes, we can have those double divider pages! Our last dance, The Crystal Balln . . . what memories we have. Most of us went to the dance with paste on our elbows, tar under our fingernails, pitch on our hands, flitter in our hair, and angel hair on our feet. But it was worth it, wasn't it? Our paradise . . . soft blue lights, a thousand diamonds on the floor from our revolving crystal ball. Glitter, glitter, everywhere. But we came down to earth with a crash-midyears and college boards. The candlelight ceremony for Honor Society was so beautiful in the hushed auditorium. We reached the sectionals in basketball . . . that wacky pep band . . . and we havenit forgotten how the whole crowd stood for our Alma Mater. The posters for the Senior Play came out. A bit of Pink Magicf' You don't have to be a heel to be popular Lambie, but it helpsf' Yes, it's spring and our three years are suddenly drawing to a close. lt's almost over. We begin studying for our final exams, and practicing for the Commencement Pageant. Our last Senior Assembly and our beautiful yearbook is put in our hands. Report cards come out. lt's over, it's done. We're graduating . . . 130 seniors in caps and gowns smiling at each other . . . and all we have left are the memories of . . . an important year, our year. 94 ,!7?54 Pre.rzHe1zl ,,....,. ...gg..,...

Certainly never one so remarkable as this year's. The graduating class of 1955 will be the first class to spend three busy years in the new Senior High School. We have celebrities in every field. We have supplied some of the top athletes in all sports-,lim Yarter, Peter Willmott, Philip Brown, Donald Fobare, .lohn Barnes, David Trumbull, Vic Steves, while our cheerleaders, Ann Willis, Judy Ross, Sally Hathaway, and Eleanor Hart have led them on to victory. Who but a Junior snatched away practically all of the oratorical honors-Michael Knapp. The ,lunior Class has indeed contributed its share of talented personalities to such school activities as Drama Night, Student Council, and the musical presentations. Our ring committee selected some beautiful ring samples for us-it was hard to choose. At last the day came and our ring committee, Marcia Corbett, Margaret Taylor, Barbara Kohn, Peter Willmott, and Thomas Adriance, handed out our beautiful rings to us. We are scholars, too. Eight Juniors were inducted into the National Honor Society. We have led the school in scholarship as one glance at the honor roll would show. The seniors had a beautiful Prom-but ours was the most beautiful of all. It was ours, you see! Soon, we too will be Seniors, but that exciting year is still in our future. -Not pictured with the class: Fred Gillingham, Carl Hichman, David Richardson. I Il8 4,4 M55 President , ...,......,,, .

The friendly reception of the students and the kindness and help of the teachers has made us feel wanted. The organization of our class began with the election of officers, with Betty Lou Hughes as our president. Members of our class were prominent in sports, music, dramatics, and Student Council. Lois Okeson and Monty Parsons were members of our victorious Varsity football team, Pasquale Caiazzo was a member of our champion basketball team. We not only have a large number of our boys that played Jayvee football and basketball, but one of our girls, Sandy Gillan, was the official timer for the .layvee and Varsity basketball games. We were represented on the Varsity Cheerleading squad by Lois Goetz, and the .layvee squad by Betty Lou Hughes. We had a large number of our class in marching band, with Gail Lavine, Pat O'Malley, and Barbara Webb as baton twirlers. Drama Night, we presented the play, The Portrait of Nelson Halliday, lrf' Peter Trumbull and Lois Goetz served as secretaries of Student Council for one semester. Our Sophomore Hop on November 7 was a great success with many couples dancing to the music of La Rouche's orchestra. The theme, You, the Night, and the Musici' was well carried out with appropriate decorations in the corners of the gym. Everything has seemed to be successful for us this year, and we are looking forward to the fun and the work of our Junior year.

Z9 'af0ne7 WEDNESDAY, MARCH 10, 1954 Most school days go unrecorded, but this school day had its picture taken. From 8:15 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., the photographer opened our classroom doors and captured for us what we shall probably treasure more than any other section of our book. Here are our friends, the ones who sat beside us and shared our jokes and our woes, borrowed our pencils, lent us notebook paper and sometimes their homework. Here is the flavor of a school at work. For one moment the clock stands still and through these pages we shall always be able to open the doors of memory and step back into the most important part of our school life-our classrooms. We pick out our favorite wall- paper samples in the Interior Decoration unit of Miss Farley's Homemaking Class. There are so many beautiful patterns, it is hard to choose. ?

Yes, we are happy because high school graduation means a goal attained a goal that has been steadily before us since the first grade. But we are a little sad, too. Some of us may never see each other again except in the pages of this book. So we say our fond and sad farewells to this happy period of our lives--the secure and well ordered past-and face the uncertain future with anticipation and confidence in our training and in our ability to attain new goals. During the many years to come, no matter what life brings us, we shall always be happy to step back into the past, and with Stephen Kingsley, Editor- in-Chief, and Mary Lou Meron, our Prom Queen, turn these pages and view again the . . .
