Class Song Alberto Archer Dear Alma Mater, we owe thee praise, For all our classmates for our high school days. Memories of joys and fears inside thy door, Memories to cherish for evermore. Farewell, H.L.C.S., farewell to you; We will remember you when we arc through. Thoughts of our work and play for al these years Come back to us as departing nears. We hand this torch to you, please carry on, Keep the flame burning after we are gone, Burning for truth and hope, and for our boys who die, Burning forever in Hadley Luzerne High. Seven Class History... As thirty-six completely unbcwildcrcd, young, eager freshmen, we started our first year of high school in the fall of 1941. At last we were on the road to the goal all high school students strive for—graduation. Katherine Kingsley led us as president, Kenneth Deuel as vice-president, Joyce Rozcll, secretary. Alberta Archer and Bob Cotherman were our Student Council representatives. Lois Smith was member of Student Court. Mr. Van dc Water was our class advisor. We felt pretty big when we got the English room for home room, but by October we were forcibly moved to the music room by the juniors. After we got used to it—we really enjoyed it—even the “Powder Room.” The second year found us under the guiding hand of Mr. Van de Water, until January when he became principal. Miss Pease filled his position ’til March when ill health forced her to leave. Mrs. Van de Water took over then. Our officers were Seth Hill, president; Bob Cotherman, vice-president; Bill Frasier, secretary'. Katherine Kingsley was member of Student Court. Carolyn Hart and Charles Shuman were Student Council representatives. Carolyn brought honor into our ever-increasing clan by being elected secretary of Student Council. The third year of our High School brought forth an entirely different attitude from our now juniors. We were anxiously looking forward to the coming events which were plentiful. First offices started with Sylvia Bethel, president; Phil Gardner, vice-president; Harris Stone, secretary, and Charles Shuman, treasurer. After several switches, Bill Frasier succeeded Sylvia as president and Carolyn Hart took over Harris’s job. Sylvia Bethel was Student Court member. Joyce Rozcll, Katherine Kingsley and John Perkins all brought us honors this year by John’s election as president of Student Association, Joyce as treasurer of Student Association and Katherine as secretary' of Student Association. Miss Scofield was our class advisor. One of the two climaxes of this term was the ordering of our class rings. After a few boys vs. girls arguments over the matter, we almost came to an agreement, but we do admit— they aren’t so bad. The second climax came in the form of the Junior Prom which was a great success socially and financially. Katherine Kingsley was crowned Queen of the Prom. 1944! Seniors at last! We had now reached our last year at H.L.C.S. and there were only thirteen of our original thirty-six left. Some went into the service and some just left. Phil Gardner led us as president, Grace La Moy as vice-president, Carolyn Hart as secretary, and Katherine Kingsley as treasurer (Alberta Archer pro-temed) ; Carolyn Hart and Charles Shuman were members of Student Court with Charles as chief justice. We were honored again by having Phil Gardner elected president of Student Association; Katherine Kingsley, vice- president (Carolyn Hart pro-temed); Alberta Archer, treasurer. Miss Scofield still was our capable advisor. In January Joyce Rozcll and Charles Shuman were crowned King and Queen of the Winter Carnival. Most of the year’s activities were spent in raising money for the New York trip which was well worth the effort. We wish to thank all of the townspeople who so willingly patronized us, thus making our trip possible. We have enjoyed our four years at H.L.C.S. but now the time has come for us to leave and try our hands at new skills. Besides learning a little, we’ve had a lot of fun and we are sure that these four years will linger long in our memories. Eight • • • New York Trip At the early hour of five-forty-five on the morning of March 30, a happy but sleepy group (namely, the seniors) was gathered at the school, anxious to take off for New York. It didn't seem possible that the time had actually arrived for us to leave on our class trip, but it really had! Mr. and Mrs. Francis Visschcr were the chaperones. We arrived at Grand Central Station a little after noon, where we were met by Mr. Van Zilc and his aides. He immediately got us into taxis and we were on our way to the Hotel Taft, where we registered, received keys to our rooms, and were given time to get some- thing to cat. After a very satisfactory lunch (according to the few who ate), we were taken to N.B.G., where we were introduced to television, shown how sounds were produced, and had a look at Don Hallcnbcck. Radio City Music Hall was scheduled for the evening, where we saw the Rockcttcs in a most enjoyable show, along with the movie “Without Love.” Since we had no intentions of sleeping our time away while in New York, we bought some pop corn and nuts (our usual menu) and had a party. The curfew wouldn’t interfere with our good time! Saturday morning, the operator phoned us at 7:15, which seemed like the middle of the night, but not on Seventh Avc. However, we did manage to get breakfast in time to leave on the tour, taking a subway and then the ferry to the Statue of Liberty. A few of us had “dizzy-fcct” when wc completed our long journey at sea (approximately twenty min- utes), but we were thrilled at getting even the slightest idea of how a sailor feels on his first day at sea. Since it was a cloudy day, we couldn’t get a particularly good look at New York’s skyline, but we saw plenty. The ships, going and coming, produced a sensation for most of us. In the afternoon we went to the Empire State Building; cabs and people resembled ants fighting a war on the streets below. On Saturday evening we were free to do whatever we desired. The class split up, some taking in movies and others strolling around. Easter Sunday morning was free, some of us going to church, but others giving up the idea on viewing the waiting lines in front of the churches. The Bronx Zoo was scheduled for the afternoon, which proved to be a very interesting and entertaining tour. Sunday night wc were again “on the loose’’, meaning more shows, etc. On Monday morning we were again telephoned bright and early, giving us plenty of time to prepare for the Grand Tour of Upper and Lower New York City. This included Grant’s Tomb, The Cathedral of St. John the Divine, The Little Church Around the Corner, and Chinatown. After catching subways, buses, and walking for what seemed like miles, we found ourselves back at the Taft, which we were beginning to refer to as home. Monday afternoon and evening was ours for rest, shopping, and shows. Our time was our own on Tuesday. The girls made use of it by shopping at Macy’s, while the boys stayed at the hotel amusing their pet turtle. That night we went to a broadcast, where we saw Paul Baron’s orchestra, Danny O’Niel and Monica Lewis. Wc went to LaGuardia Airport Wednesday morning. It was rather hard, coaxing the girls away from the “wolverine’s paradise”, but we managed to do so in time to take the taxi to Grand Central, where we boarded the Albany train. We were an exhausted but enthusiastic group of droopy eyes as we neared home, but wc had a wonderful trip and a host of memories which wc would never forget. J'RUE! ! ! ! Junior Class President .

Sports, like everything else this year, suffered the effects of the war. “Only essential traveling” caused soccer and basketball to be dropped from the list of varsity sports. The baseball team, however, entered the Saratoga County League and scheduled one game each with Greenwich, Corinth, South Glens Falls, Stillwater, Ballston Spa and Schuylcrvillc. Coach Doris Vogt guided the destiny of the team throughout the season. For the second straight year there was no competition for interclass trophy but there was an intramural program under the direction of Miss Vogt. Under this plan each student won points toward his record if his particular team won. Points were given for participation and also for individual placing in certain events. The events which earned points for the boys were: mixed volleyball, winter carnival, basketball, softball, soccer, six-man football and table tennis. The events for the girls were: mixed volleyball, specdball, table tennis, winter carnival and softball. Among the highlights during the past year were the colorful winter carnival and the exciting table tennis tournament. Seventeen Remember ? Many moons ago, when we were Frosh, we had the huge sum of 36 in our class. Now we are down to the point where we don’t talk about our number. Remember? Those were the days when Seth Hill and Bob Cotherman made news (and history) by their mischievous ideas in how to dismantle a room, i.c., take all the seats apart. And Danny Scott used to be “beat up” every day by the afore- mentioned. Remember? Now Seth Hill is in the submarine service in the South Pacific, where, no doubt, he gets all the excitement and adventure he wants. Bob is working in the mill, and waiting for the Army to give him an address next fall. Danny? Why, he’s working, too, in Woolworth’s in Saratoga. Since we’ve covered the noisier of our little group, we should now give space to those who most of us hardly knew were in the class. Joyce Smcad is at home, taking her ease, smart girl; Anna Dean is working part time—the rest is spent at home; Harriet Allen is working in the shirt factory; and Milt York is in the Army, stationed in South Carolina. Larry Wyman—Remember him? He’s been in the Marines and out again; now, he’s out west. Harold Le Barron, the quietest of them all, is a sailor now— in Australia. It’s amazing how some of them get around. Remember the Boismcrts? Louis is in the Navy, too, and Lucicnnc is working in the shirt factory. “Me no Jap, me Chinese.” Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Ken Duel used to recite that by the hour, before he left us to marry Bonnie Wood and became a sailor-—or was it vice versa? Probably everyone knows that Harris Stone is working in the mill when not in “Barbs” and that Caroline Guilder (Shuman) and Milly Grimes are making their fortunes in the glove shop. Elton Smith! Dear old “Prof” as he was known as, remember? is working in Schenectady since his Merchant Marine discharge. Ima Smith (Red) is married and a mother already! Another Red to take the fatal step is Lorna Eddy, now living and working in Warrensburg Has anyone forgotten Mabel Estey, the “little girl” who had to stretch to get her 5 feet in the WAC’s? How could we? Bill Brown, far and above the best dresser in the class (remember those sweaters?), is working in the mill, too. That place must seem like school with so many of the class of ’45’s “ex’s” there. Milford Baker is working there, too, while Clark Baker is cutting pulp for his father. Ina May Moore, the only one with the courage of her convictions (?) is going to school in Conifer, N. Y. What became of “Tuck”, you say? Why Myron (Tucker) felt the call of the sea, too, and joined up just about a year ago. He was the one to always get the last word in—Remember? , We think our class is pretty good (don’t all classes?) but we know that it would have been about half as good, except for the contributions you have all made, to make us a “class”; we’re glad to remember you!

Mr. Spancake gives another lecture on the “Dangers of Girls in the Chemistry Lab.” 11:35—Back to our homeroom after a strenuous morning of (you name it). Phil tries to quiet the class down for a meeting. With only two male votes the girls fight among themselves, instead of with the boys. 12:05—The noon bell rings and the senior homeroom loses another door as John and Charlie see who can get out the door first. 12:10—Rozic, Joe and Cary start to cuss and discuss everyone in school while eating their lunch. 12:20—Phil comes back to take Joe down to Barbs, and Cary starts her noon hour studies. Now we know why; she just wants to be smart! 1:05—The seniors have a ball game with Rozie’s orange.

And is that Phil working in the store? Can’t be! 7:00—Phil starts for another visit in Hadley. 7:30—Charlie stops into Barb’s after basketball practice to call Rozie. 8:30—Gathering at Barb’s for a last coke arc Sylvia, Berta, Joyce, Charlie, Phil and Joe. 9:00—Now is the time for all good seniors to be in bed! Is it? Arc they? Who knows! ! ! ! 'Twenty NAME FOLLY VIRTUE PET PEEVE PASTIME A. Archer A sailor Sociability Gas rationing Soda jerking S. Bethel Chemistry Good nature Square dancing Horses G.

The seniors leave their memories of New York to the juniors in the hope that they may profit by them. (Finis) (Signed) Philip Gardner, In the presence of Class President Abraham Dawes, Esq. (Class Lawyer) Twenty-tno Class Prophecy... Dearest Carolyn, Received your letter and I was exceedingly delighted to hear from you after six years of silence. What wonderful work you must be doing at the University of Chicago teaching social science. Since you ask I shall endeavor to acquaint you with just what has happened to all our classmates. Joyce and Charlie are one and have a child prodigy in the family—Joy—and at the age of three she plays the Warsaw Concerto, no less! Grace La Moy is in the Philippines and has the task of teaching little Filipinos sewing and cooking. I understand she founded the school directly after the war with Japan ended. June Morehouse is one of her able assistants. Alberta Archer is still as charming as ever and Millward had to enlarge his drugstore and lengthen the soda fountain to accommodate the summer youth standing three deep waiting for a malted milk and Alberta’s enchanting smile. Philip Gardner is with the Conservation Commission at Albany. I understand he addressed the New York State people by way of radio last week in values of tree planting. Eleanor is also in Albany—stenographer in the state building—and wearing a diamond, third finger, left hand. Remember Bcv Brown? Well, my dear, you must have seen her latest picture, “She Could But Would She,” and her leading man was John Hodiak! Grace Bosforth is her private secretary. I picked up the receiver one day and asked the local operator to give me long distance and I recognized Katherine Kingsley’s voice immediately. While waiting for my connection she told me that she’s married to a Navy man and they arc very happy. John Perkins has a large farm in Stony Creek and he has all modern equipment. Everything is run by electricity. Luzerne is beautiful; I’m here for a month and, Carolyn, you should see the new school and the grounds, gymnasium, swimming pool and all. Miss Scofield is still teaching and is also assistant principal! I am leaving September 1st for Hampton, Va., where I am to be head surgical nurse in the operating room at the hospital there. I understand there are quite a few war veterans there so there won’t be any boring moments, I assure you. All and all I think our class has turned out simply super, don’t you? Wouldn’t it be grand if we could all attend an alumni meeting in the near future or maybe get together in N. Y. at the Hotel Taft? Well I shall terminate this letter now, hoping to hear from you soon.
