CLASS HISTORY We, the Seniors of the Hadley-Luzeme Central School, began our high school careers as freshmen under the guidance of Mr. LaRoque and Mr. Kraushaar. We were divided into two sections with Levi Bourdeau, President; Larry Bovee, Vice President; Faith Bethel, Secretary - Treasurer; as officers of one section and Betty Clute, President; Edith Wood, Vice President; Barbara Stokes, Secretary; and Marjorie Allen, Treasurer; of the other. Student Council rep- resentatives were Marjorie Traver and Marjorie Allen. As sophomores we were counseled and directed by Mrs. Peterson. Since we were only one group that year, Warren Post was President of the whole class, Marjorie Traver was Vice Pres- ident, Barbara Stokes was Secretary, and Marjorie Allen was Treasurer. John Cheyer repre- sented us in Student Council. It was during this year that we began raising money for our Sen- ior trip. Two of our major projects were selling emblems to students, and coke during ball games and other extra-curricular activities. Our sophomore year is memorable also because that year we moved into our new building. Our Junior year advisor was Miss Woodin, and under her direction we really began to pro- gress in our attempts to raise money and carry out worthwhile activities. With Faith Bethel as President, Marjorie Traver as Vice President, Barbara Stokes as Secretary, Marjorie Allen as Treasurer, and Lowell Thomas representing us in Student Council, we undertook an ambitious program that included, among other things, selling magazines, pictures of students, and cards. Scrap and paper drives were held throughout the year. Without doubt, the prom and school play were our most outstanding activities of the year. The prom was highly successful and a capacity crowd enjoyed the music of Ray Nelson's orchestra. The school play was well received and two performances played to large audiences. Mr. Castle, our Senior advisor, has guided us during our final high-school days. As Sen- iors we have been planning our trip to Washington, earning the last few dollars necessary for our expenses, and just waiting for the time to start. Of course, we have not lost sight of our prima- ry purpose in attending school, and many of us have been busy planning careers, seeking admis- sion to schools of higher learning, or looking for jobs. Our Senior year officers were Marjorie Traver, President; Nancy Filkins, Vice President; Barbara Stokes, Secretary; and Marjorie Allen, Treasurer. Barbara Stokes was our Student Council representative. Perhaps the greatest project of our high school days was the yearbook. With Faith Bethel and Deloris Harvey as editors, and Margaret Sutliff as business manager we spent much time and effort putting together this edition of The Hi-Lights. We are glad to have been part of the student body of the Hadley-Luzerne Central School, and will remember with deep appreciation all of those who have in any way helped us since we have been attend- ing school.

CLASS PROPHECY January 16, 1966 Dear Nancy: The other evening at the big Alumni banquet of the class of 1956, after each member of the class had been out in this world going their own way, it seems wonderful to all to be together a- gain. We were discussing how sorry we all were that you could not make it, but we realize that your work as head therapist in the hospital, in Africa is much more important in as much as there is such an epidemic. The evening started off with a welcome, to the most widely known member of the graduat- ing class of 1956, Governor Sutliff. She proposed a toast to Dr. and Mrs. Edward Burns, who have done society one of the greatest honors possible by their development of the cure for the common cold. Mrs. Burns in turn proposed a toast to her socialite friend, Betty Abeling who just made her fast entrance to the party with her chauffeur, Lee Eldridge who took only a half hour to get Betty here from her job in Washington as head of the Department of Health, Education, and Wel- fare. Lee drove 200 miles an hour on the new supersonic highway in Miss Abeling's Cadillac. Miss Abeling in turn proposed a toast to Lee and his driving ability. Mr. and Mrs. Larry Bovee, (Mr. Bovee is better known as Larry Nobel, famous on Broadway) had a toast proposed by his wife to his new picture (Gone With The Breeze.) The complete direc- tion of this picture was handled by the Anderson Production Studio, which has produced such great hits as: South Atlantic, Darned Yankees,10th Heaven, A Star Is Born on the Waterfront. Edith Wood then stood up and proposed a toast to Edith Wood, the only one of us who was smart enough to stay single. Lowell Thomas and wife have just moved into their $2, 000, 000 Ranch Home where Barbara has a whole yard to keep their pet lamb in. Ace Pilot Warren Post brought a DC 7 of his in from his private airfield where a school mate of mine, L. Wood is enjoying a full time job as private hostess on Warren’s planes. Nina Scofield now is running her own monkey farm just as she always wanted to even before graduation. Donna Hammond has now entered Arthur Murray's as their most prized dance instructor. Mrs. Roger Farr is now one of the most happily married women in the town of Luzerne, she is very content with her full time job and only wishes she could have gotten married two years sooner. Bert MacDonald finally made his big debut on TV and of course he was a hit. How could he miss with his voice and his sense of humor? Patty Bostick Grant has now received her second golden record on the song that's sweeping the country by storm, 32 Pounds. “ Margie Pidgeon attended, saying that her husband couldn't make it because of a business appointment. They are both very successful since Lewis bought the General Electric Company in Corinth. Faith Bethel is known as the sorority woman of the ages. She now has a string of sororities all over the nation and is known as Mrs. Sorority of 1966. (Continued on page 54)
