Text from Pages 1 - 100 of the 1947 volume:

In that time the quality of the hook improved and the variety of its contents increased. The full-page pictures introducing each section are one of the most appealing features of the present Deanonian. The many informal pictures of the building and of student activities which have appeared over a period of years, form an invaluable record of school life that is a source of pleasure to those who have left the school but like to recall the days spent there. The proportion of pictures to text is greater in the modern book than in the older ones. The choice of paper and of cover material has made it more attractive to look at and the spiral binding has made it easier to handle. Since these innovations are the result of Mr. Smith’s interest and knowledge, we wish to express our appreciation to him for creating a good foundation upon which to build future Deanonians. iIrr of board of ajion sinrr j )0) jclcni of Tjoarcloj icif on since JtyjQ I Seniors GlaU L President - Vice-President - • - Secretary - - - - Treasurer - SUSAN M.

The Future Homemakers of America is the National organization of pupils studying home- making in junior and senior high schools of the United States.

LIBRARY CLUB In 1946-47 the Library Club had a membership of thirty-seven girls who assisted the librar- ian by working at the charging desk, arranging displays and keeping the library in order. The library honored Book Week by a special display of the products and resources of New York State. Posters explained interesting facts about the industries, agricultural resources, min- erals, and history of the state. Products of New York were on display and objects of historical in- terest were loaned for the exhibit. A hobby exhibit featured collections of coins, model airplanes, dolls, toy animals, stamps and handwork. Other exhibits have been arranged on such varied topics as Favorite Stories, The Wonders of Science and Industry, Vocations, and Arrangement of Winter Bouquets. In November the Library Club sponsored a very successful Harvest Jamboree. Donations have been made to the Red Cross and other welfare groups. The library has arranged special collections of material for essay contests on folklore and on the problems of the peace. Officers for the year 1946-47 were: President ..............................

GOUVERNEUR IN HOLLAND The Gouverneur schools have maintained friendly relations with the school in Holland which they adopt- ed last year through the Save-the-Children Federation. Many letters have gone back and forth between students of the two schools and we sent them a second shipment of clothing this year.

MUSIC DEPARTMENT Music activities of Dean High for the season ’46-47 ranged from the pleasant swing of the Dance Band to the martial music of the band. The school orchestra appeared for the Dean Oratoricals and for the annual Spring Concert with the Mixed Chorus. The Dance Band played its biggest engagement for the Gouverneur Luncheon Club, follow- ing this engagement with the Delta Sweetheart Dance on the following night. They also appeared for assembly, community sings, and occasional Friday night dances throughout the year, topping off the year with the Junior High Graduation dance. The novelty “Basketball at Dutch’s”, pro- duced as part of the Band Concert Review, featured the cheerleaders and the boys of the chorus in close- harmony with the musicians of the Dance Band in a musical scene starring Amos Kent- held as “Eskilroy”, Gouverneur’s mythical basketball hero. The Mixed Chorus sang in assemblies and, at Christmas time, presented “The Night Before Christmas” in choral arrangement over the Presbyterian Church’s loud-speaker system. The chorus sang negro spirituals including “Dry Bones” for the Chorus-Orchestra Concert on April 20th, and ended the year with a trip to Potsdam for the May Festival and with singing for the Sen- ior High graduation. Junior Chorus sang at Christmastime, Spring Concert, and Graduation. The Senior Band appeared on the football field in the fall and followed this with participation in the basketball evenings throughout the winter, including the two games at Ogdensburg. The Band Concert-Review was one of GHS’s most successful concerts and the money earned at this made the May Festival trip possible.

DEAN HI-LITES The Dean Hi-Lites, the weekly newspaper, is one of the most important extra-curricular ac- tivities in the school. The membership of the newspaper club is open to anyone from grades eight through twelve. The popularity of this activity is shown by this year’s unprecedented membership of over seventy students. The staff is proud of the fact that the newspaper exists solely on student subscriptions and is grateful to the student body for its loyal support. It hopes it will continue to merit their approval. Pleasure and work are combined in the club. Each fall a banquet is held at which Miss Eck- mann announces the staff for the coming year. This year the club at the same time presented Miss Eckmann with an appropriate gift as a token of their appreciation of her efforts at creating an excellent newspaper. Then, too, there is the exciting May dance, now an annual affair, at which the king and queen of the May, elected by the students, are crowned with due pomp and cere- mony. At the final assembly of the year in June, the Newspaper Club awards a suitable gift to the two senior editors of the paper. 11 hflM '• ™ ™ lr M FOOTBALL -Back Row (left to right)—Mr. Canale (coach), Albert Patton, Jack Whalen (co-captain), Fred Hopper, Roger Sipher, Merton Gollaher, Richard Monroe (manger), Mr. Cryan, James Smith (assistant manager).
