S'n iorS 946 CLASS SONG by Fay Paul Our high school days are memories. Four short years gone by. It's hard to think that they have ceased; Days at Luzerne High. We've weathered every pitfall, Heads held high and strong, For we are forty-sixers all; Classmates, sing our song. Make sure this song stays with us Till no longer can we sing This chorus all together, So clearly let it ring. Farewell to friends in our high school We leave you this light. We've made it shine so proudly; Keep is burning bright. ass Way back in 1942-3, thirty-two fully alert Frosh began high school life in the lowly haunts of the Music Room. But don't for a minute think that because the class was in a low place we were '‘low-down''! The upper- classmen of that year had to admit, grudging- ly. that the Freshmen were not of the usual haphazard quality. Led by President Don Allen, Vice-President Norman Pulver, Secre- tary-Treasurer Marion Ormsby, Student Coun- cillors Reta Rozell and Bobby Bethel, and Stu- dent Court Justice Grace Perkins, the 46'ers very nearly acquired possession of the inter- class trophy, losing out by the gigantic margin of three-quarters of a point1 This has continually rankled us, as a simple matter of attendance was what kept the trophy from adorning our home room wall. Back of all this inspiration and school spirit was Miss Jane Wilson—our faculty advisor and special friend, who will long be remembered by us for starting us on the first rungs of the Ladder to Success. Swinging upward to the Study Hall to win more laurels, our second year of high school found us governed by President Keith Mona- han, Vice-President Marion Ormsby, Secre- tary Lizzie York, and Treasurer Nancy Hughes. Miss Marcia LeValley, our advisor, ably guided us in the two successful class parties and our other activities. Honor came to the Sophs when Fay Paul became Vice-President of the Student Association. Mildred Le- Barron was the other council representative, while George Vickery held down the Student Court for us The interclass sports progrcm was suspended, due to the fact that many boys had left high school for the service or important war work. Miss Vogt, however, ar- ranged an intramural program and a large number of Sophomores won letters under this system. 1944 - 45! Advancing to the higher aris- tocracy (Juniors, that is) the class of '46 chose Fay Paul to preside over them and Arthur Wendell to assist him. Doro'.hy Burnham handled all the correspondence and recorded the class activities Florence Even: hcd charge of our ever-increasing treasury, end did an admirable job. George Vickery and Grace Perkins represented us on the Student Council, where Grace was secretary. Reta Rocell was Junior Justice of the Student Court V e unique 46'ers started the ball down the alley with repeated waste paper collections that netted us a tidy sum toward our Easter trip. Class rings were ordered early, and arrived shortly after Christmas. Everyone agreed that they were exquisite—but natch! cf Gaining momentum, the ball finished its jour- ney down the alley with a perfect strike— the annual Junior Prom. We called it The Dragon Festival ; Chinese lanterns and deco- rations set the atmosphere for the unusual affair. Amid this splendor Grace Perkins be- came Queen of the Prom, with Reta Rozell as her lady-in-waiting. The Festival was a finan- cial success as well as a social one, increas- ing our treasury to no small extent. A class hike completed our third year of high school. Miss Elva Tarbell was our Junior faculty advisor and aided us so greatly that we again chose her as advisor for our last year at H. L C. S. (We were confused for a time as to what to call her—she became Mrs. during the summer vacation—but we soon became used to the new title.) Nineteen future world citizens all ! We again chose Fay Paul to preside over us; Liz York was elected Vice - President, Nancy Hughes was Secretary and Reta Rozell, Trea- urer. Liz York and Robert Bethel were council representatives and Robert handled the sec- retarial work. Fay Paul was President of the Student Association. Norm Pulver and Grace Perkins were Student Court members, with Norm as Chief Justice and Grace, Secretary. The Seniors took more honors when Art Wen- dell was elected chairman of both the Service and Traffic Committees. 1945-46 has been a busy year for us, what with the year book, the Easter trip, Senior Ball and all of the various other activities in which we participated. Florence Evens edited the year book, with Grace Perkins as her business manager; this successful edition of the Hi Lights is a tribute to their leadership and to the co-operation of the class as a whole. Another high light of this year was the Saint Patrick’s Ball , a semi-formal dance at the Hadley Town Hall. Each homeroom nominated a candidate for Sweetheart of the Irish and Joan Eckert, the victor, was crown- ed by President Paul. This successful dance was a close rival to the previous Dragon Festival”. With the return of interclass sports the class of 1946 had our vengeance and led the com- petition for the interclass trophy with a sub- stantial margin of points. Little did we realize that when we started high school, four years could pass by so quickly and eventfully. We are now rather sorry that our days at H. L. C. S. are finished, and it is certain that we will always remem- ber the friends, pleasures and knowledge that we gained here. The 46'ers say, Goodbye ! !

Our Officers were Joan Eckert, President; Barbara Cotherman, Vice- President and Treasurer; and Edna Rayder, our Secretary. Representatives in Student Council were Joyce Kenyon and Joan Eckert. Proudly we wear our class rings and pleasantly reminisce our Junior Prom held May 17th. Round dancing was enjoyed to the music of Millie Ingraham. We have greatly profited by our cooperation on our many projects and look forward to our last year in HLCS, looking back with no regret. [10] Firs Row—L. Bourdeau. M. Shuman. C. Hayes.

SOPHOMORE CLASS The Sophomore Class, varying from nineteen to twenty-five pupils, had as officers: Clyde Hayes, President; Vice-President, Eunice Howe; Secretary and Treasurer, Marie Shuman. Pat VanDenburg and Eunice Howe were our Student Council representatives. On the Service Committee from our class were: Marie Shuman and Pat VanDenburg. Our fall party, a Barn Dance, with hay and all, was held in November— very successful too. In May our spring party in the form of a Scavenger Hunt was held Both took place at the Hadley Town Hall. The class added $25.00 to our rising bank account by having a Public Dance at the Town Hall in March. All in all, it was a very successful year and we are all looking ahead to next year being more so. [HI First Rou—Af. Mann, B. Bern, A. Slone. B. Sebald, O. Deitze. Mr. Tountend, advisor: B.

FRESHMAN CLASS We, the class of ''49,'' started our first year of high school with Barbara Sebald as President, David Deitze as Vice-President and Treasurer; Blanche Jowaiszas as Secretary, and Mr. Rogers as Advisor. Victoria Walker and Herbert Springer represented us in Student Council, Donald Baker and Claude Wright in Service Committee, and Peggy Eisen in Student Court and Sports Committee. On November 9th we had our first party. Truth and Consequences and dancing provided entertainment, and pop and cookies were served. This was the first year we Freshmen had had a chance to play the high school students. We didn't do so bad, either. A dinner for two at Patsy's Inn was raffled off, through the kindness of Mr. Allrich, by the thrifty 9th graders; $32.50 was added to the class treasury. In the spring, Mr. Townsend returned and took over as our advisor. The week of April 8th, the Cleanliness Banner hung on our wall. We hope to have it there often, but it's quite a job to clean with all the lab equip- ment in the way. April 12th we had a successful Easter party in the Town Hall. Enter- tainment was games and dancing. Refreshments were pop and cookies. On April 18th the Freshmen put on a radio play, called “Love in Bloom, for our assembly. We Freshmen have had an enjoyable year and hope to have three more of them. [12] First Row—I. De Lorei a. I. LeB.trron. . Wood, L. Ormsby. Mrs. Burns, A. Flanigan, J. Hotey. E. W right, f. Currier.

EIGHTH GRADE Thirty-six ambitious eight graders arrived back at school after a pleasant summer vacation, to elect their officers: Ann Flanigan, President; William Flanders, Vice-President; James Hovey, Secretary; Larry Ormsby, Treasurer. George Pidgeon was selected to represent the class on the Student Court, while Douglas Wood and Hollis Wood were on the Service Committee. Our first party, held at the Hadley Town Hall, was not as successful as our Jamboree Party, held in the spring. A Christmas party was held in our home room the day before vacation, with a tree, gifts, and refreshments. In February Mr. Walsh, our new Social Studies teacher, replaced Mrs. Rogers as our advisor. Under his direction we presented our assembly pro- gram in May. The first cleanliness banner was awarded to us for having our Music Room home room in ship-shape order. We hope to keep up the good work, and are looking forward to another year of success as we enter high school. [13] Sailed—R. Waterhouse, L. Aldrich. A. Oritt, 11 . Miner, H. Chile. First Ron'S.

After a few weeks passed, elections were held and the following officers were elected: Beverly Reed, President Dick Forster, Treasurer; Shirley Mudge, Secretary. Our Student Council mem- ber was Shirley Mudge. Robert Zeigler and Emerson Howe were chosen Service Committee members. Student Court member was Don Rice Parker. November 30 came around and we had our Victory Party. In the Winter Carnival, held February 1, we beat the eighth graders. Our winning snow sculpture was Pinocchio. The boys in our class were very unfortunate in their soccer game with the eighth grade. The class had a successful year and hopes to make it even better next year. [14] STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council started off a successful and very busy year with Fay Paul as President; Joyce Kenyon, Vice-President; Robert Bethel, Secretary; Eunice Howe, Activity Treasurer; and Joan Eckert, Central Treasurer. Our capable and helpful advisors were Mrs. Johnson and Mr. Townsend. The different committees were represented by: Elizabeth York, assem- bly; Eunice Howe, clubs; Herbert Springer, traffic; Pat VanDenburg, service; and Robert Bethel, sports. Through the Council, two new clubs were formed: The Debate and the Dramatics Clubs. STUDENT COURT The Student Court, as the judicial department of H. L. C. S., is composed of seven members with Miss Scofield as advisor. The members are Chief Justice, Norman Pulver; Clerk, Grace Perkins; and five associate judges: Donald Baxter, Peggy Eisen, George Pidgeon and Don Rice Parker. A few cases were successfully tried this year for minor infractions of the various association rules. [15] First Row—AI. Shuman, P. VanDenburg. A. Wendell. Miss Marie Scofield. Air. Stuart Al.

SERVICE COMMITTEE AND TRAFFIC COMMITTEE The Traffic Committee, under the direction of Mr. Walsh, performed its usual duties of patrolling the halls and handling fire drills. New fire drill rules were issued, concerning alternate exits in case of fire in different parts of the building. Arthur Wendell was elected chairman by the members: Norman Pulver, Harold Rayder, Fay Paul, Willie White, Clyde Rollman, Garvin Burgess, Neal Halk, Fred Forster, George Cranston, David Mann, Clyde Hayes, and Hollis Wood. At the first meeting of the Service Committee Arthur Wendell was e'ected President, Clyde Rollman, Vice-President; Pat VanDenburg. Miss Marie Scofield was chosen as advisor. The Service Committee has worked with the Student Court on a number of cases of infractions of the rules. Again this year the committee has awarded the cleanliness banner to the home room which had the best record each week. The judges for this contest were Mrs. Aldrich, Mr. Castle and Miss Gumprecht.

The main events of the year's program were the annual Christmas and Spring concerts. The Christmas concert was presented at the December meeting of the Parent-Teachers Association at the high school. Program numbers included carols by the Junior Choir (fourth, fifth, and sixth qraders), the Glee Club, a brass trio, a boys' ensemble, and a solo by Grace Perkins. The big event of the year was the Spring concert, held in the Presbyterian Church. The band, consisting of twenty-five members, was part of the pro- gram. One number was a baton twirling act by Mary Lee Bourdeau, Pat Butler and Jean Clews. This successful program for the year was carried out under Miss Polly Wilson's conducting and Joan Eckert's accompanying. The band members were: trumpets—N. Pulver, C. Rollman, R. Rozell, G. Burgess, D. Deitze; clarinets—F. Evens, C. Champagne, E. Lindsey, J. Clews; flute—A. Stone, sax—J. Eckert; baritone—G. Cranston; horns—J. Cranston, B. Hayes; trombones—M. Reynolds, D.

NEWSPAPER CLUB The Newspaper Club, getting quite a late start this year, made up for lost time by turning out some very successful Hi-Lights, under the leadership of Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Aldrich. At the first meeting of the organization Bob Bethel was elected Editor-in-Chief; and Florence Evens and Norman Pulver, Assistant Editors. Later Reta Rozell was elected assistant editor, replacing Norman Pulver. On April 1, the April Fools issue of the Hi-Lights was distributed throughout the school and everyone seemed to really enjoy it as it was entirely different from any thing ever attempted. Other issues were distributed in Janu- ary, (New Year's edition); February (Washington's Birthday edition); and May, (last edition). Warrensburg's Hi-Rock'' said we had the best variety of material they had ever seen. Of course, this was a great morale builder. ft was a very successful year, and we are wishing next year's club good luck in editing the Hi-Lights. [18] First Row—ir. Waterhouse, D. Wood, mascot; O.

SPORTS The boys were disappointed this year in not being able to have Coach Townsend back so they could participate in the Saratoga County league in soccer and basketball. He finally returned, however, and the boys diligently practiced for their first baseball games. They made a good start by beating the home team by the score of 5 to 3 and Hartford with a score of 7 to 5 This year, under the supervision of Miss Vogt, we had interclass games. The individual point system continued in which each student received points for participating. The Seniors, being full of school spirit, won the championship of the following games: volleyball, speedball, boys' soccer, and football, with the Freshmen winning girls' soccer. We had a real successful Winter Carnival February 1 with the Seniors taking first place and the Juniors second. The lucky king and queen were Fay Paul and Joyce Kenyon. Liz York and Fay Paul were the champions of the pingpong tourna- ments played during the winter months. Now everyone is looking forward to a full schedule of league games for next year in soccer, basketball and baseball. f 19] Uh e vi'ash in cj on - ♦ At seven o'clock Thursday morning. April 19, seventeen excited Seniors and their chap- erones. Mr and Mrs. Johnson, started their twelve hour journey to V ashington During the bus ride to Albany, Mr. Johnson handed out to the Seniors their hard-earned money for meals. In Albany, the first stop, everyone clambored off the bus, eager for the next lap of the trip, after a half hour wait for the train, all were seated and ready to push the train a little faster Every half hour someone would open his lunch and start munching again After twelve hours of sleeping, eating and gazing at the scenery which included baseball games. West Point. Camp Shanks, Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building and Philadelphia, we arrived at the Capital. As we came out of Union Station it was twilight, the leaves were out, and we could see the dome of the Capital rising up out of the trees. It was a beautiful sight. At last — The Hotel Annapolis, our headquarters. Saturday morning found everyone awake with zest, energy and eagerness to start on the tour. The first stop was Mt. Vernon, Va., where the group picture was taken. The guide told of amusing questions people ask, example: Is that white horse one that was George Washington's? Mt. Vernon is a beau- tiful place, overlooking the Potomac. There we saw the tomb of Washington and his wife. After lunch we went to the Zoo. drove by the various embassies, past the Jefferson Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, to Arlington National Cemetery, where we saw the Lee Mansion, the tomb of the Unkov n Soldier, and the Memorial Amphitheatre. That night, Bob went to a friend's house and met some How- ard University students; others went to an amusement park, to the movies, or to the Capitol. Easter Sunday, Reta and Grace got up at 5:30 to go to the sunrise service at the Mem- orial Amphitheatre in Arlington. The others went to church later. The afternoon tour in- cluded the National Cathedral, the Franciscan Monastery, and the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. During the evening the class was free to make its way about the city to more places of interest or to a show. The first stop Monday morning was the Washington Monument, where a few am- bitious souls climbed the stairs while the less ambitious ones rode up in the elevator. The view of the city was beautiful in spite of a misty atmosphere. The next place of interest was the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, where we were tempted with all the one dollar bills we saw being printed. Not even one dollar for a souvenir ! On to the Smith- sonian Institute where we should have spent at least a week to enjoy everything. It was very interesting to see such things as Charles Lindbergh's Plane The Spirit of St. Louis , the Wright Brothers' plane, a plastic trans- parent car, and everything else that you can think of. That night, our last at the Annapolis, everyone had a last look at the Captal City Bob went out to Howard University and later saw Duke Ellington in person. Tuesday morning, our last tour took us to the Capital Building where we saw the Presi- dents room, the old Supreme Court room, the page boys, the House of Representatives and the Senate. At the Library of Congress we saw the first copies of the Declaration of In- dependence and the Constitution. We went into the new Supreme Court Building, but the court was not yet in session. In the afternoon we journeyed to New York via Jersey City. From Jersey we ferried to Manhattan and on to the Taft. At first we didn't like New York — it was so big and dirty and Washington had been so clean and beautiful. New York is filled up with build- ings, while Washington has so many beauti- ful parks. Our evening was taken up with a tour of the N. B. C. studios and television; then we went to the Philip Morris Frolics broadcast. Wednesday morning a double tour of Mon- hatten included the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Columbia U., Grant's Tomb. Green- wich Village. Chinatown, the Bowery and Fifth Avenue. The afternoon was open, so people wont their various ways to a ball game, Staten Island, the movies, and a stage play In the evening, the tour took us to the Easter pageant at Radio City Music Hall, where the program included the Rockettes and The Green Years .’ Thursday morning the subway and ferry took us to the Statue of Liberty where most everyone got dizzy going up and down stairs. At three o'clock we were homeward bound, tired and happy. The school bus echoed with songs as we left Albany for the last lap of the journey. All in ail we had loads of fun and we wish to thank all who made it possible for us to go on the Washington and New York trip. [20J Prettiest girl............ Handsomest boy ...........

Mrs. Johnson Mr. Kenneth Johnson [21] Paris, France May 3, 1967 Dear Sandra: I have just returned to my rooms after performing in a concert for all the Parisian celebrities, including the President of France. Since you're trying to write a class prophecy for the year book, I thought it would be interesting to tell you what has happened to the members of my class since we grad- uated twenty-one years ago. Well, let's see: two of my classmates are right here in Paris— Joyce Goodness and Grace Perkins. Joyce married that millionaire, Ronald Van Schliften- heimer, and is seeing the world smothered in ermine and silks Grace is here studing art. Her husband. Bill, was here last month to celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary, but he's off again on another business trip. I just received a letter from Dot Burnham yesterday. You know, she started as a model but has recently switched to dress designing. Myrle Walker is one of the most famous models for her costumes. Oh, you'll have to excuse me for half an hour while I listen to Harold Rayder's news commentation. He is so well informed on all subjects; he just predicted a third World War within the next five years. I certainly hope he's wrong ! I read in the paper that Norm Pulver is making a name for himself by building a bridge between England and France. Liz York is in the third year of her second marriage with three kids to take care of. Her home-ec training must be coming in handy. Art Wendell was finally elected supervisor of Hadley. He's been running for the office for years. His cousin. George, is a big-shot in state conservation A talent scout spotted Fay Paul over ten years ago Now he's crooning the leading ballads over the air waves and on the celluloid — not neglecting the cuter actresses in his spare moments. Willy White is out West too. He and his wife, the former Marion Ormsby, are running a big cattle ranch. Milly is contented teaching Home Ec in H L. C. S. with the help of very extensive department and materials. It must be some change from the good old days when we slaved away there. Dr. Bethel, the renowned Boston brain surgeon, recently performed a very delicate but successful operation on Fred Gardner, who now owns and manages a string of well known restaurants from northern Maine to Southern California, known as Tex's . Nancy Hughes has been happily settled in New York for 15 years with a handsome husband and several little ones. Last, but far from least, is Reta Rozell — now proudly holding the job of personal secretary to the Governor of New York. Now you can see what can happen in just a few years. Nothing you can dream up for your class prophecy is too fantastic. Well, it's past bedtime, so goodnight. I'll try my darndest to be home for your graduation. Love, Mom (Florence Evens) Die OtJ !% Wlarote 6:30—Myrt Walker rolls out of bed, wishing school started at noon instead of 8:45. 7:30—Millie stands around waiting for the bus, and brooding over the turmoil of classes yet to be faced. 7:45—Art Wendell, awakened from sweet dreams of his lady love, turns over and wishes he'd caught a ride home sooner. 8:30—Joining forces, the Hadley Heights Seniors (Art, Bill, George and Fay) march vigor- ously to school. 8:40—All Seniors make a mad dash for their seats to beat Mrs. Johnson's deadline. 8:40Vg—Reta and Flo breathlessly rush in thirty seconds too late. 8:45—With the passing bell. Myrt arrives and now that the class is complete, the daily diet of Shakespeare is served to all the sleepy-eyed Seniors. 9:00—All eyes scan the reigning King Klock (the Seniors proud possession) only to find that the period has hardly begun. 9:32—The Senors stop their chatter long enough to answer Miss Scofield's roll call. 10:12—Flo trots to the Home Ec Room for her daily bottle of moo juice. 10:14—Harold Rayder patiently nurses the movie machine out of its bad case of jitters. 10:30—Joyce and Nancy had their daily rendez-vous and coke at Kurt's (until January). 10:55—The three chemists (Moose, Mert and Grace) proceed to the lab. 11:00—The Business Mathmaticians start arousing the ire of Miss Myers. Why teachers turn gray ! ! 11:38—Mrs. Johnson reminds the Seniors to sign out — or else ! 11:38-12:00—Bill and Grace exchange smiles, words, blows, words and finally smiles again. Dottie, Liz, Flo, Millie and Myrt gossip. Period. Pete, Bobbie and Moose argue about the latest Trig problem. Joyce and Nancy discuss, cuss, recuss and re-discuss mail and males. 12:01—All fellas make a bee-line for coats—then crowd around the door waiting for the bell to ring. 12:07—Flood emerges. 12:48—A few Seniors straggle in to find Willy working over something—bookkeeping or a letter to Marion. Then they are chased out by Mrs. Aldrich. 12:50—The Seniors are allowed to enter their homeroom. Bobbie immediately collects a free lunch from bites of candy bars. 12:55—Fred comes in and snaps out a Shut Up to some momentarily silent person. Mrs. Johnson checks the roll, and immediately after, Pete strolls in — Okay, twenty minutes after school. Norm . Pete grimaces, then in turn pleads, begs, cajoles, threatens and eventually gives in to the inevitable. i 00—Milly, Liz, Reta, Joyce. Nan and Dot troop down stairs to Home Ec for a little lamin' and a little more gossip. 2:20—Up in the tyqing room, Reta is puzzled over something. Is it bookkeeping or Johns- town? 3:05—Those Seniors cherubs hurry to their homeroom, chuck their books in their desks, fix the window shades, and wait patiently with folded hands to be dismissed. 3:06—Another school day gone and George is left behind to clean up the filthy floors for another day of slaving. [23] We. the great Senior Class of 1946, being of sound mind as of body, after four marvelous years of unforgetful experiences together, do now present the following to our successors and do so declare it to be our one and only will. President Paul wills his leadership and attraction for the opposite sex to Warren Hall. May it bring results. Art Wendell. Vice-President, leaves his beauty sleep and tardy marks to anyone who enjoys staying after school. Florence hopes her height and slimness may be used by Joan. Could it be? Harold leaves his arguing ability to his sister Edna, and his genius in running the movie machine to George Cranston. Dot wills her promising future and hard work to Skippy. ‘Moose Vickery leaves his stature and weight to Peanut. Reta leaves her dreams, willed her by Carolyn Hart, to anyone who enjoys night- mares. Pete s wittiness is left to Don Baxter Let's hope he makes good use of it ! Milly wills her quietness and agreeablness to Betty Jenkins and Minnie. Liz leaves Paul to absolutely no one and her athletic ability to Joyce Kenyon. Willy leaves a little of his shyness to Bud Burgess. That will take real will power Nan wills her haunts in Luzerne, Corinth and Stony Creek to her brother, and her job as class secretary to any sucker. Fred just leaves — Myrtle leaves George to anyone who thinks they can get him. Bill leaves his long walks to Hollis Wood. Grace leaves the best desk in the English Room to whoever gets there first. Bob wills his job of Editor on the Hi-Lights to anyone who wants a big job. Joyce leaves her letter writing to Mary Perkins but certainly not the addresses. Mrs. Johnson wills the hair-raising job of Senior advisor to any poor teacher who gets stuck with it. To the lowly Juniors (class of 47) we leave another year of drudgery plus a few pleasant memories. The Senior Class sends along best wishes to Norman Pulver, Arthur Wendell, William White, William Frasier and George Vickery who expect to enter service after graduation.
