Page Thirty-One HOMEROOMS 1938 -1939 The homeroom system has evolved over a number of years into our present method of grouping about thirty pupils under one teacher for a period of one year. Until September 1937 a homeroom was an administration unit where pupils met for roll call, dismissal, and special study periods. At the beginning of the junior year of our present senior class, when the activity period was begun, Wednesday of each week was designated as Homeroom Day. During the activity period on that day, pupils gathered in their rooms under the supervision of a teacher and participated in programs of various types. On one Wednesday of each month the period was devoted to the study of Safety, in- cluding automobile driving, fires, hunting, ice skating, the use of oil lamps, and the use of electrical appliances.

Because of a lack of exper- ienced players and a shortage of candidates reporting for practice in September o ir Dean eleven were never successful in league combat. The team, however, si ould be commended for the untiring perseverance and all-round good sport- manship shown under Coach Riley’s diligent training during the year even though their grid campaign was disappointing. The prospects for next year’s team are very good, for several lettermen are returning this fall. Then, too. many new players received training on the six-man football teams coached by Kurt Maier last September. The following were members of the varsity squad: Captain MacDougall Evans Stanley Fortune Hugh Sprague Theodore Constantikes Clarence Evans Eric Bresee William Foeppel William McCormick Bernard Riley Louis Boulet Charles Helvie Murray Thomas Charles Li scum William Griffith Donald Hopper Cecil Alguire Alvin Hance Raphael Boscoe Manager Eugene Hopper Captain MacDougall Evans and Bernard Riley were awarded honorable mention on the 1938 mythical All-Northern eleven.

Everett Jenne, Clarence Evans, Everett Markwick. Third Row— Mr. Riley. Mac Evans. Manager Stanley Fortune. Despite a wealth of promising material, our basketball squad completed a disappointing season. With four veterans from last year’s campaign and eight experienced reserves, Coach Riley seemed to have a potential championship team. However, several players failed to improve as expected and only three victories were saved from the entire schedule. Of these games, victories over Canton and Tupper Lake, high rating teams in the league, were outstanding. Next year’s prospects are very bright, with six of this season’s veterans re- turning, besides several progressive junior varsity players. The following boys earned letters this season: Cecil Alguire Robert Bell Scott Brown Murray Thomas Everett Jenne was also a member of the squad.

Girls’ Intramural Sports Girls’ Intramural Sports have been pop- ular for the past two years in Gouverneur High School. Each Monday and Wednesday nights the girls, under the direction of Mrs. Randall, met here at school to participate in volleyball and basketball games. During fav- orable weather the girls played field hockey, and baseball on the Athletic Field. Practically every girl took part in some of these sports during the year. GIRLS’ ATHLETIC COUNCIL Clarine Evans, Jessie MacTurk_Seniors Barbara VanSlyke, Jean Brown__Juniors Norma Winch, Elma Bond __ Sophomores FIELD HOCKEY The girls’ field hockey this year was far more successful than that of last year. This is the second year for the sport itself and the first year for competitive games. Though these games were played among the seniors, juniors and sophomores, the junior team, of which Bette Wilson was captain, was the leader. Its players consisted of Alice Plunkett, Jean Brown, Helen Jennings, Barbara Van- Slyke, Marion Davis, Dilys Thomas, Ruth Streeter, Lucille McGuinness, Nadine Clark, Josephine King, and Betty Premo. VOLLEYBALL Girls’ volleyball attracted much attention every Monday and Wednesday evening. Mrs. Randall supervised scheduled games and Edna Moore’s sophomore team proved to be the champions. The players were: Edna Moore, captain, Jane Mickens, Gladys Kel- lough, Elma Bond, Norma Winch, Mary Jean Spilman, Harriet Campbell, Mary Campbell, Mavis Alguire, Jean Curtis, Mildred Burge.

BASKETBALL Basketball for girls, a great favorite, was the recreation of many students during the long winter months. The senior team consist- ed of good players, but they lost to Alice Plunkett’s junior team, which included Alice Plunkett as captain, Dorrine Woodworth, Jane Collins, Barbara VanSlyke, Nadine Clark, Betty Premo, Josephine King, Helen Jennings, Ruth Streeter and Lucille McGuin- ness.

Approximately 40 to 50 boys came out for the new sport, and under the guid- ance of Coach Kurt Maier, the team met with average success during the season, winning from Tupper and Saranac Lake, and losing to Malone and Ogdensburg.

A cheering squad of eight capable people this year successfully helped to promote the spirit of Gouverneur High School. Much credit must be given to this group, for although we had an unsuccessful football season, the cheer-lead- ers kept spirit aroused. This year, for the first time the girl cheerleaders had uniforms, consisting of purple, pleated jumpers with gold blouses. The boys wore purple sweaters with gold letters. The head-cheerleader is chosen from the group and is usually a veteran leader. His or her duties include selling tickets, training the squad to perfection, and finding new cheers for them to perform. A new “swing” cheer was formulat- ed by the squad. It consisted of trucking, shagging, and the Lambeth Walk. Some cheerleaders attended most of the out-of-town games. Much enthus- iasm was aroused when bus loads of cheering students and cheerleaders arrived at the various schools. The cheerleading personnel included: Eleanor Christian.

The Thespian Dramatic Club was organized about four years ago for the purpose of promoting appreciation of drama in the school. The Club took its name from the Greek poet, Thespis, who was the first actor to combine dialogue with acting. During the past, the organization has presented several noteworthy plays among which were “The Importance of Being Ernest,” “She Stoops To Conquer” “Uncle Tom's Cabin,” and “Growing Pains.” This group of interested young people have made two suitable gifts to the school. Last year the Club donated two bridge lamps to be used in various school activities, and this year, the present was a spot light with iris, movable shutters, and color wheel. “The Charm School,” a three-act comedy by Alice Duer Miller, was the Club’s 1939 performance.

Rylanb Jetoitt, ’09 THE BEST TIIEKE Listed on the following pages are the names of men and organizations who, literal- ly, “make the wheels go ’round” in Gouverneur. Progressive merchants and industries, they contribute much to the development and maintenance of the community. In their stores, factories and warehouses are to be found the best that money can buy. We appreciate the support they have given the 1939 Deanonian, and consider that support as an indication of the kind of public spirit which has made Gouverneur out- standing among Northern New York communities. When we say “patronize our advertisers”, we mean it, not just by way of saying “Thank You”, but because they merit your support in the same measure that they have so generously supported all that is for the benefit of Gouverneur. 7 te Stajjjf DON’T FORGET CSOUVERNEUR FAIR Northern New York’s Greatest Exposition August 15,16,17,18,19, 1989 EVERY DAY 5 DAYS EVERY NIGHT A BIG DAY 5 NIGHTS A BIG NIGHT Exhibits - Free Acts - Midway - Revue Nightly “TINK” ELDRIDGE Clinton Street Diner 24 Hour Service Phone 11-J EDDIE’S ESSO SERVICE ----o---- Corner Edith and East Main Streets GOUVERNEUR, N.
