Senior ( lass Hisforxj In the autumn of 1936 a group of approximately twenty-five students became freshmen in their Alma Mater. This first year was filled with excite- ment over new systems, new studies, and r.ew people. Miss Allerdice was elected class adviser while Martha Stanton was elected president, Ona Thomas, vice-president, and Ruth Stanton, secretary. Scott Hayes and Vera Kenyon were sent as representatives of the class to Student Council. The next year the students had become thoroughly acquamted with each other and had indulged in more extra-curricular activities. Miss Allerdice was again selected as faculty adviser and Martha Stanton succeeded herself as president. Alice Groombridge was elected vice-president and Ona Thomas, secretary. Martha Stanton and Scott Hayes represented the class in Student Council. Parties were conducted as in the previous year with great success. On the last day of school, the entire class went hiking up Cobble Mountain. The following year the students were juniors and were beginning to feel their importance in school activities. Mr. Townsend was elected faculty advi- ser while Richard Bunzey was class president, Ona Thomas, vice-president, and Alice Groombridge, secretary. Bert Martin and Martha Stanton repre- sented the juniors in student government. A Thanksgiving Party was held as well as a gala Junior Prom. Vera Kenyon was elected Junior Prom Queen. In June a square dance was conducted at which a reasonable sum of money was realized. Eight continued on next page 194-0 ilallijlti the Senior Class . . . continued The senior year arrived with many pleasant surprises. Martha Stanton, who helped to make the class’ reputation, was again the president. Jack Tun- ney became vice-president and Bert Martin, secretary. Miss Nightingale and Miss Eaton were faculty advisers. Richard Bunzey was elected president of the Student Association by the student body, and thereby automatically became president of Student Coun- cil. Ona Thomas was elected secretary of the Student Council. Jack Tunney was also Student Council representative from the class. Frances Hart and Henrietta Bunzey were appointed judges on the newly formed Student Court. Several projects were undertaken by which money was raised to cover graduation expenses. In the fall the class sold subscriptions to magazines and in the w'nter they conducted a radio raffle and sold candy and soft drinks at home basketball games. Through the courtesy of the Board of Education and taxpayers the class was enabled to visit Wash’ngton, D. C., and New York City during Easter week. This trip will always be remembered by the members of the class. Two parties were successfully conducted during the year. One. a Hal- lowe’en Masquerade, was sponsored in the fall, while a Kiddie Party was given in the spring. The class was represented in the field of sports by Jack Tunney. Bert Martin, Richard Bunzey. and Carlton Wendell. Although many students par- ticipated in Glee Club, there also were some orchestra members including Martha Stanton, Isabel Hall, and Jack Tunney. The class was well represented in the numerous clubs of the school and did its best to Dresent entertaining assemblies at designated times. The four years which these young people spent together have passed very quickly and they are reluctant to see each other take his own path in the world. Their high school years were pleasant and will be remembered in the j caiS to come. Nine JUNIOR CLASS Top row: ( Hnvey. V. Dingniiin. M. Winslow, 11. l'owUw, II. Allen, 1.. Cowles, K. Winslow.

A Hallowe'en party was held in October at the school. Round and square dancing was featured. Under the capable supervision of Mr. Rosebrock, who was faculty adviser, a Junior Prom was held in the Luzerne Grange Hall on May 17. There was round and square dancing accompanied by the music of Dick Stevens and his orchestra. Every effort was made by each member of the class to make this a great event.

Beverly Eckert and Truman Fuller had already been chosen as the representatives on the Student Council. Miss Lindros was the class adviser. At the next meeting a housekeeping committee composed of Joyce Roider, Jean Bethel, and Gertrude O'Hare was chosen. Later it was found that this committee was not needed because of the efficient Service Commit- tee members, Phyllis Pulver and Grant Bethel. Phyllis left school and was replaced by Betty Harris. On October 27 the first class party was held. At a class meeting on October 29, the president chose a program com- mittee to provide programs at class meetings for the first half of the year. Beverly Eckert, Joyce Roider, Milton York and Clarence Smith were on the committee. At the Winter Carnival Joyce Roider was captain of the girls' skating team and Wayne Perkins was captain of the boys'. The girls were beaten by a few points, but the boys made up for them and finished with a total score almost double that of the seventh grade. On December 2 1, a small Christmas party was held at which time gifts were exchanged. A Valentine's party was held in an activity period on February 1 3. and a May party on March 3. Through the year many members of the class participated in various assemblies. SEVENTH GRADE Top row: H. I. ltam.n. V. Knis'er. I. l’orkins. II. Slow. K. Ormsl.v. I . Canlim-r. ('. Shuman, R.

Qualifications to be met by reporters emphasized the realization and carrying out of individual responsi- bility for work on the newspaper that made up a final unified piece of work. The club, in putting out the school paoer, strove for accuracy on the printed page and for general improvement. Classes were conducted in which reporters were taught the correct method of procedure in writing an article after receiving an assignment. The reporters with the aid of Miss Eaton, as head of the proof-reading department, accomplished success in virtually eliminating all mistakes. The commercial department, under Mr. Nelson, supervised the typing and mimeographing, and cooperated to cut down faulty print. Corliss Wood, the managing editor, worked hard throughout the year, with the help of Miss Nightingale, in setting up a more attractive paper with regard to page make-up, covers, the use of more art work and feature pages. One of the outstanding features of the oaper was furnished each month by the camera club, under the supervision of John Castle. In each copy of the High-Lights a snapshot of some current high spot in school activities is included. It was a colorful addition and one which has increased the value of the “High-Lights.

Katherine Kingsley and Kenneth Deuel. School activities were carried out under the supervision of the various committees under the Student Council. The Finance Committee levied a student tax to meet its budget for the school year. This tax gave students the right to hold office and to participate in sports ami clubs and the right to attend and vote in Student Association meeting. It also allowed them free admittance ami transportation to and from basketball games. The council member on this committee w=� s Richard Fowler; the faculty adviser was Mr. Nelson. Tin Service Committee wa- composed of two students from each class. This committee was verv active in preserving order in the halls, in homerooms and on the playground. Rules were adopted and posted in each homeroom. This committee had Mr. Castle as faculty adviser and Jaek Tunnev as Student Council member. The Sports Committee made a verv satisfactory schedule for inter-class sport . The Winter Carnival featured bv the Sports Committee was the high light of the season. Mr. Townsend acted as adviser and lames Priddv was Student Council member on this Committee. The Assembly Committee under Miss All-rdicc and Miss Eaton with Dorothy Hurd, council representative, made a schedule for carrying out assembly programs. The Club, Committee with Arthur Brewer, council representative and Mr. Rosebrock. faculty adviser, made out a social calendar which worked out verv well. The ( Inks Committee al-o had charge of the radio for noon hour dancing and class parties. The Traffic Committee with Mr. Nelson as faculty adviser and' Madge Parker as council member tock care of the ela-ses passing in the hall , on the stairs and during fire drills. During the year the Constitution was revised and accepted by the Student Association. On May 31. a picnic was organized for the high school by the Student Council. Truck events were b hi in the morning on the baseball diamond and were followed bv a pVnic at Camp Tekawitha. later softball teams were formed for several games to entertuin the clivers as well as the spectators. Swimrnirg in Lake Luzerne was enjoyed bv a few .-tout hearts. STUDENT COURT Top row: II. Stanley, adviser. H. litin rv. 1). McKenzie. K. Word. Bottom row: .1. Holder. X. l’erkins. Chief .lattice. K. Hart. A new body was introduced in the Hadley-Luzerne Central School during the year 1939-1940, called the Student Court. Its duties are to hear all complaints, to give decisions, and to impose penalties. The Court met the second Thursday of each month, and it tried cases on those days. All cases tried this year were brought in by the Service Committee. A member of one of Mr. Nelson's shor'hand classes took the minutes of the meetings and sent the reports to the Student Council. The seven members of the Court were chosen by the Stduent Council Executive Committee with the advice of the high school faculty. The members of the Court this year were Norman Perkins, Chief Justice, Donald McKenzie, Richard Hall, Henrietta Bunzey, Frances Hart, Elizabeth Wood, and Joyce Roider. A model session of the Student Court was presented in an assembly on May 1, under the direction of Mr. Nelson. Seventeen CHORUS AND ORCHESTRA This year the chorus has been divided into two groups, the Senior High School Chorus made up of twenty-five boys and girls and the Junior Chorus which includes thirty seventh and eigh'h grade students. Each group has met one period a week for rehearsals. The Junior Chorus made its first appearance at the Christmas assembly when it supplied music for a Nativity play. It ap- peared in an assembly again on April 7. Members of both will combine to sing at commencement. We have been fortunate this year in the purchase of four new band instru- ments: a tenor saxophone, flute, and two mellophones. These are the first band instruments ever to be owned by the school. They have been loaned to school students for use during the school year. The orchestra numbers twenty-five students with the following instrumen- tation: violins, Jean Andrews, Madge Parker, Frances Van Dusen, Isabel Hall, Joyce Rozell, Beverly Eckert, Isabella Eddy, Mary Weiss, Gertrude O’Hare. Maxine Cowles, Alberta Archer, Henry Denton: trumpets, George Cranston, Phillip Gardner, Doris Mudge; clarinets, Norman Perkins, Florence Evens, Jay Smead, Beverly Brown; baritones, Barbara Davidson; saxophones and drums, Wayne Hawk; piano, Harriet Hall. Eighteen C?-10 cJ-llalhtjlt CAMERA CLUB The Camera Club met last fall under the supervision of Mr. Castle and elected the following officers: president. Joseoh Lindsey: vice-president, Harold Ogburn: secretary. Harriet Hall; treasurer. Robert Allen. Because of the inadequate facilities I he club was limited to twenty-five members. Later a Junior Camera Club was formed of seventh, e'ghth, and ninth graders. They were given one week out of each month in which to carry on their activity. During the Winter the Camera Club held a skating party on the lake and had refreshments at the school afterwards. An assembly program on “How to Take Pictures” was presented to the student body. The Camera Club has taken pictures for a feature page in each issue of the magazine and pictures for the year book which were displayed in the Industrial Arts Exhibition. The members of the club include: Sh’rley Ogburn. Donald McKenzie, Leon Ormsby, Edward Winslow, Myron Winslow, John Tunney, Richard Bunzey, Richard Hall, Genevieve White, Barbara Davidson, Margaret Roider, Frances Hart, Edward Dwyer, Henrietta Bunzey, and George O'Hare. LIBRARY CLUB The Library Club celebrated its second birthday during the past year. The members included Barbara Davidson, Margaret Roider, Joyce Roider, Alice Groombridge, Shirley Ogburn, Madge Parker, Polly Stanton, and Dick Guiles. The members learned the correct use of library equipment and performed many routine tasks under the guidance of Miss Nightingale, the adviser. In addition, the club planned bulletin board displays and took charge of the study hall in the absence of the librarian. Throughout the year special exhibits were Dresented w;th the coooeration of the local theater. Among these were “Drums Along the Mohawk, Young Tom Edison. “The Bluebird, Pinocchio, and Abe Lincoln in Illinois.” Several other topics which were well illustrated featured exhibits on con- sumer education, book week, conservation, dog stories, mystery stories, and transportation. CHEF'S CLUB The Chef's Club, when considered in the light of its infancy, has been a big success this year. It was founded during the first few weeks of the 1939-40 term. It was an informal club for boys, restricted to seniors and post gradu- ates. The a m of this club is to learn to cool:. The e was a meeting every Thursday at which the fellows cooked their lunch during activity period and ate it during the lunch hour. During the year, a few meetings were devoted to sewing. After accom- plishing a certain degree of perfection at sewing, etiquette was studied for two meetings. The attention of the club was then turned back to cooking. The members were Robert Tucker, Bert Martin. Edward Dwyer, Rolland Gumprecht, Scott Hayes. Frederick Gilles, and Carlton Wendell. The club was advised by Miss Scriven. During the year the members invited several guests to their lunches. 1 he guests expressed their approval of the cooking much to the delight of the members. WHO'S WHO MOST POPULAR GIRL.....

Tite Blue and White Eagles had a successful year in soccer. They won three, tied two and lost two games. The boys tried to make up for the bad start of the Greenwich game all through the league playing season. A brilliant comeback was staged in the Burnt Hills game. The boys were losing 2-0 in the first half, but pushed five between the posts in the second half to win 5-2. On the team were George Deuel, Robert Allen. Corliss Wood, loseph Lindsey, Norman Perkins, Ethan Allen, John Tunney, James Priddy, Richard Fowler. Henry Denton and Raymond Denton. In reserve were Edward Dwyer, Bert Martin, Carlton Wendell, Donald McKenzie, Fred O'Hare and Wayne Hawk. The record for the year follows: II. 1.. c. 8. OPPONENT 0 Greenwich 2 if Schuylerville 1 3 So.

The Hadley-Luzerne basketball team finished seventh in the Saratoga County League. With only two regular players back on the team from the previous year, the team started slowly. Several games were lost by heart- breaking scores, a fact illustrated by the scores of the South Glens Falls game. 29 to27, then at home against Burnt Hills when the game was lost in an over- time period, II to 9, against Greenwich by 32 to 31, or against the League Champions, Stillwater and Schuylerville when the score was 19 to 16. Such was the luck of the Eagles, as they were named by a vote of the school. The team will lose George O'Hare and Bert Martin, guards. The varsity was made up of Norman Perkins, James Priddy, Raymond Denton, George O'Hare, Bert Martin, Richard Fowler, George Deuel and Wayne Hawk.

In the Corinth game, the final one, they were defeated 2 to 0. Corinth didn't garner more hits than the Eagles, but bunched them. George Deuel was the star pitcher of the season, winning three, one of which was a no-hit, no-run game against Stillwater, and losing one. Ray Denton and Dick Fowler also saw action on the mound. George O'Hare was the man behind the plate, and he did a good job. Norm Perkins continued his spectacular work around first. Wayne Hawk cov- ered the keystone sack, showing some fine fielding.

PUPPET CLUB The Puppet Club, a new club organized this year under the direction of Miss Stroup, was composed of seventh and eighth graders. Meetings were held once a week during the activity period. One play was produced this year called The Enchanted Princess. a fairy tale in three acts.

Next year the club hopes to be a little more creative by writing an original play. Twenty eight
