T .' -r' ' lf, ', is ,X V The Senior Class We are the class of 1930! Soon we are to go forth into the wide, wide world and make our own way. Although our four years were not all fun, we have had a good time while we have been in high school, and all of us are sorry that we are going. As freshmen we entered school in September 1926, forty-seven strong. At first we were very bewildered, but after becoming accustomed to our new environment we assumed that characteristic attitude of all freshmen-self importance. John Lynch was our president that year. Under his guidance we put on two of the biggest and best parties ever given by a freshman class. Our sophomore year, which was more or less uneventuful, saw Martha Livermore as our presdent. That year the annual interclass basketball tournament was started, which tournament our class was never forunate enough to win. Our junior year, during which Doris Tuttle was president, stands out by vir- tue of the fact that we observed the tradition of our school by entertaining the class of 1929 at the junior-Senior Reception. Our senior year, the present year, has been the best of all. We put on two good parties in co-operation with the juniors. We presented the play The Boomer with the aid of Beta Delta Beta. We were the guests of the juniors at the annual Reception. Last, but not least, comes Commencement, which we have all been looking forward to for so long, but which we dread more and more as it approaches. Richard Stradling is our president this year. Now that our four years are finished we can look back upon them and say with pride that we have been a typical Hamilton High School class, which implies many things, among them being that we have contributed generously of our members to athletics, Beta Delta Beta and Almeda Literary Society, and that we have co-operated with Mr. Rose. There have been many changes in the school during those four years. We have seen the building of the new gymnasium and grade school to go along with the consolidation of the districts around Hamilton. We have seen a great increase in the number of faculty members and a phenomenal growth in size of the student body. However, the changes have not all been in the school. Our class now numbers only twenty-three, most of the other members of the class when it entered school having dropped by the wayside, gone back a class, or taken up attendance at some other school. Before leaving our Alma Mater in june, we desire to thank our teachers for seeing us so successfully through school and to wish other graduating classes all kinds of success. Although we may soon be far away from Hamilton High School, we shall never forget the days we spent there, or the friends we made. VV. B. L. Twelve -WN 4 , f , 4.5 . ew' ff ' , .- Rx?

We were the first freshman class to take advantage of the improvements in the old building and of the gymnasium in the grade school. The following officers were elected at the beginning of the year: President, Richard Raine: Vice-President, Ruth Grems, Secretary, Doris Myers, Treasurer, Albert Hedemarkg Students' Council, Phyllis Leland: Facul- ty Advisor, Miss Hannah G. C. Stapleton. We differed none from an ordinary freshman class in the fact that we in- dulged in childish pastimes and also partook of parties and several interclass basketball games. In our Sophomore year the following persons were chosen to guide the des- tinies of our class: President. Philip Sanborn, Vice-President, Doris Myers, Secretary, Al- bert Hedemarkg Treasurer, joy Suters, Students' Council, Richard Raineg Faculty Advisor, Mrs. Woolston. Having little fear for the iron discipline of Vice-Principal Everett Lane, we amused ourselves by hearing him give vent to his vocal power in moments of irritation at our foolish pranks. Two parties were held in which we combined with the freshman class. This year under the guidance of Miss Rice, our faculty advisor, we have determined to make it a bigger and better year. The pupils assisting her are: President, Richard Raine, Vice-President, Phyllis Leland: Secretary, Philip Sanborn, Treasurer, Albert Hedemarkg Students' Council, Melrose Suters. We had one party which was attended UD by the faithful members of the class. We also put on the junior-Senior Reception which we hope did justice to the tastes of our most worthy Seniors. The day of graduation looms not far off in the future, striking terror to our hearts, and after a great deal of research, we find that perhaps one or two have some hope of graduating next year. H. G.

Dorothy Patterson was representative to student council and Mr. Lane was faculty advisor. The First underclass party was held in the gym and it was far more successful than the second, for which we joined with the Sopho- mores at a picnic at Lake Moraine. As it was late in the season very few at- tended this party. The Sophomore girls' basketball team under the coaching of Mrs. Everts won a decisive victory over our Freshman girls' team. The Freshman boys were likewise defeated by the Sophomore boys. Early in the school year the Sophomores held their annual election of class officers. Carl Leland, the president of the previous year, presided over the business meeting at which William Johnson was elected to succeed him. Myrtle Howard was selected as vice-president in place of LaBelle Ross and Amy Parker filled the position of treasurer which Mary Benedict had held previously. Our former president was chosen as secretary to succeed William Johnson. Mr. Yaple was designated as faculty advisor and George Berry served as Student Council representative in place of Dorothy Patterson. All the elected officials have filled their positions very creditably. At the opening of the football season the Sophomores defeated their long standing rivals, the Freshmen,and ranked high with other organizations in the sale of athletic association tickets. In December the Sophomores united with the Freshmen toproduce the first underclass party. Due to the large number present, and the careful plans made by the entertainment committee a most enjoyable party was held. Credit is due to Mr. Lane who was present and was an important factorinits success. The program consisted of games, short skits put on by groups of pupils from both classes under the direction of Miss Fisher,and dancing. The second party held in March was similar to the first although a betterorchestra was secured for dancing. During the basketball season the Sophomore girls played the Freshmen girls twice. The Sophomore boys played the Freshman boys once and the junior boys once. In the Hamiltonian drive both Sophomore boys and girls showed their school spirit in having the largest percent of subscribers. D. J.

We had passed all of our regents in half a year and each felt as puffed up as a large balloon. We entered the study hall with chests forward and heads high. We were greeted by anfunusual amount of applause. We ex- pected a certain amount of razzing but thought we got more than ourshare. We freshmen lowered our heads and turned fore red. At that moment we could have changed places with the smallest tacks in the floor. That razzing had destroyed our pride completely and we scrambled to our seats in the quick- est way possible. Once settled in our proper seats the year sped on quickly, the freshmen causing much commotion. Then started the new year. New freshmen were added to the groups of half year pupils. A meeting was held during September, 1929, and officers were elected. VVilliam Chambers was chosen president, LeMoyne Betts, vice- presidentg Elizabeth Smith, treasurer: Dorothy Edkins, secretary,and Hilda Gaylord the representative for the Students' Council. We have cheer and song leaders who lead yells and songs at our meetings. The freshmen girls gave a play at Assembly, November 13, 1929, which was a marked success. The freshman-sophomore party was given on Decem- ber 14, 1929 at which Santa Claus was a welcome visitor. Each member of the class received a present. The party was a memorable event. In january 1930 the much dreaded examinations were held, the freshmen averaging good marks. Then fifteen eight graders joined us. The aim of this class is to be the largest and most successful class that ever went through Hamilton High School and we feel we are well on our way. P. J. B. '34. Twenty -WA 'fi-1-ft! ,C 'fi' 4 - fc?

There were to be three rooms and three teachers. lt was to be departmentalized, and one teacher would teach all the pupils one subject. The teachers and their respective subjects are as follows: Mrs. Everts-English, I.iterature, and General Language: Mrs. Hill, History and General Scienceg Miss Heffernan, Arithmetic and Geography. The other minor subjects were divided among them. The eighth grade was divided into two parts the first half of the year. One division is made up of those pupils with the higher averages, the other di- vision being made up of the opposite. Most of the pupils of the former took Regents in all subjects except English in january. Those that pass the Re- gents take high school subjects in their places. During the second half of the year there are two seventh grades and only one eighth grade. Those pupils in the seventh grade who have the best. averages and pass geography in january are put in a room by themselves while the others are kept separate. This plan has enabled the quick learning pupils to go ahead as fast as they wish. The girls and boys have been very glad to become a part of the Hamilton High School. They have taken part in the chapel periods, mass meetings, exhibits, and social activities. This is the first year that the junior high school has had a part in the Hamiltonian Both girls and boys of all divisions have had basketball teams and played among themselves. The boys have also had baseball and football teams. These teams were supported by their respective divisions as loyally as the high school students back their teams. When the junior high school plan was introduced, the teaching of two new subjects was begun. They were for those of the eighth grade who passed Regents in january. The subjects were General Science and General Language. The junior high school has had parties at the end of the year. They have given plays for the school entertainment. Altogether, the junior high school plan has been a great success. M. LANG, 7th grade.

To further dismembcr the street, the ditch digger for the new sewer dug a ditch in the middle of the street which caved in. VVhen cold weather came, the street was just ready for resurfacing in the spring Cso said the bored street commissionerj. During the winter we didn't mind the bumps so much because it was consoling to remember that they couldn't possibly get worse in the future. VVhen the two or three different melt-ups came, several forlorn drivers were cheered to think that their cars could have sunk all the way in if he'd driven into Lake Moraine, while the top still showed after they had sunk into University Avenue. Now this troublesome street is all fixed. lt has been entirely resurfaced with mud. You can get over it in fine style now--in an airplane. But for automobiles it isn't so hot and if you don't believe it ask Mr. Wm. A. Reid, or Prof. Lawrence Appley-they know from experience. But however we all move that either the village put on a macadam top or else provide ferries. Now to be serious on this question of roads. The bad conditions of Univer- sity Avenue were due to the digging into quick sand and below the road base. If they had known how far down the base was they wouldn't have dug below it. To prevent conditions like this in the future, as a suggestion, it would be a good thing for the town to have the street commissioner keep an accurate record of when roads were built, by whom, their width. and the depth of the road base. r M.

This proved a great success and was followed by another, when the society presented its formal dance March eight. The girls have kept up the standard of the society, by holding a weekly meeting in the junior home room and a monthly meeting in the gymnasium. The part ofthe year was given to the study of the Constitu- tion. The girls feel that this year has been very benehcial to the society. Twenty-ffzwi R.

'N .17 'iii' Football Season On September 28, after three weeks of hard drilling, the high school opened its 1929 football season by defeating Sherburne 7-6. Next week on October 5, the team went to Frankfort for its first. league contest. The team fought to a 6-6 tie, with Hahnle scoring the touchdown for Hamilton. On October 12 the team rode to Mohawk. There the home boys received their first beating. Mohawk bucked a winning touchdown. The game ended 6-0 in favor of Mohawk. On October 19, VVhitesboro came to'Hamilton. Here Hamilton recovered some of her lost prestige by giving a Heinz's varieties, 57-0. Later the team took their last trip to New Hartford. Here the spectators witnessed a mighty battle: two teams equally determined to win. The home boys received the kick-off and took the ball well into the enemy's territoryg here they lost it, and New Hartford pushed Hamilton back for the first touchdown and succeed- ed in kicking the extra point. In the second quarter Hamilton made her first touchdown, which was followed in the third quarter by one from New Hart- ford. In the fourth quarter Hamilton again scored, but again failed to kick the extra pointy this left the final score 13-1.2. To cap the climax of the season, Hamilton defeated her ancient rivals, who were also the chief contenders for the league championship, Dolgeville, by a score of 6-0. The student body turned our en masse after a week of cheer practice. On a muddy field Hamilton started from the very first and pushed Dolgeville all over the field. Time and again the Dolgeville backfield and even the line were on their own goal line. Finally Hamilton scored. Dolgeville made a hard but vain attempt to come back. As the final gun went off, Hamil- ton was well on her way toward a second touchdown. As a conclusion to the season, Hamilton put Fayetteville in her game- bag. Hamilton smashed through for a touchdown after a series of spectacular plays. Hahnle kicked the extra point, which won the game. Fayetteville after a wide end run of some 45 yards scored a touchdown but failed to make an extra point. The final game of the season ended 7-6 in favor of H. H. S. At every game the team gave their best, but the second team was also a vital factor, and both deserve credit. The manager, Stanley Church, the scrubs, and the student body also helped to make it a successful year.

A., Hamilton Central High School History There has long been a need for ahistory of the educational system of the town of Hamilton, and it is in an effort to fill this need that this history is writ- ten. Sources of information have been interviews with various townspeople who have at some time or another, been connected with this school, letters from former principals, back numbers of the Hamiltonian, and state and school records. There is a scarcity of information on the period prior to 1895, since many of the school records were destroyed in the great fire of that date. At this time we wish to thank the people who, by gathering interviews, so ma- terially aided us in the compilation of this data. . Education in Hamilton started in the Colonial period. The first public school set up for business in a log building, in about 1700. In 1800, a frame building was erected to house the school. Twenty-three years later, in 1823, the little red school house was built. At this time Maria Ranson taught the younger children in a building at the other end of the village. The famous Union School was established in 1835. Its first principal was Mr. Sisson. Mr. Williams was assistant and the Misses Hemingway, Blakeman, Leonard, Rice and Sisson were members of the faculty. From 1876 to 1880,William W. Rowlands wasprincipal. Following him came Mr. Van Tuyl, who continued in service until 1901. The members of the faculty at this time were Celia Sisson, M. A. Starr, Libby Heacox, Sate A. Baker, Lucinda Blakeman, and Hannah Hartshorn. The Board of Educaton,which is the first mentioned during this period, con- sisted of Frank Beebe, president: Pierce, Sears, Mott, Adon Smith, and George Beal. During Van Tuyl's administration in 1900 a new yellow brick building, the present high school building, was erected. George Bennett, now at Yonkers, was principal from 1902 to 1909. The president of the Board then was George Beal, who was later succeeded by Adon Smith. Other members of the Board were: E. C. Root, N. R. Wick- wire, C. S. Orvis, W. F. Langworthy, F. W. Piotrow, C. Stanley Ormsby, and H. H. Hawkins. Some of the faculty members were: G. Adelaide Slade, Myrtie M. Sawdey, Florence M. Brownell, Harriet J. Tryon, and Edna C. Fel- lows. Gramp VVest started his term as truant officer and janitor about this time. Regents were introduced in 1903, and the course of study was changed to comply with the requirements of the State Board of Regents. The re- vised curriculum was as follows: History, divided into Greek, Roman, Medie- val. English, and Advanced United States Historyg German 1, II, 1113 French Grammar, Latin Grammar, and readings in Caesar, Cicero, and Vergilg Geom- etryg Algebra, Biology, and Elementary Drawing. The Almeda Literary Society was flourishing at this time, but there was no boy's society because most of the town boys attended Colgate Academy. The size of the student body then was about one-half of what it is now, there being about one hundred in high school and two hundred in the grades. John W. Taylor was principal from 1909-1910. Succeeding him came Thirty-seven I IL - It If I , dvr' W, M I Frank W. Markham, now principal at Cobleskill, who held this important of- fice from 1910 to 1914. His term stands out by virtue of the fact that in 1912 Colgate Academy was discontinued, the boys came to the high school, and the athletic history of the school began. Following Mr. Markham, George Barford, who is now Superintendent of Schools at Auburn, became principal. During his term of office, the first in- teresting junior-Senior Reception was given, in 1915, and the Beta Delta Beta was organized in 1916. Succeeding Mr. Barford came Ralph Strebel, who presided over the school from 1919 to 1925, and who is now teaching at the Syracuse Teachers'College. When he started his term the president of the board was H. H. Hawkins, and the members were: E. Stone, H. P. Wells, C. J. Coleman, Dr. Langworthy, R. Craine, Dr. Allen, Professor Whitnall, and T. Wedge. At this time there were fifteen in the faculty. Important policy changes during this period were the addition to the faculty of a school nurse and a kindergarten teacher, the abolition of the system of having grades divided into two parts, establishment of a Students' Association, and the organization of a Parent-Teachers' Associ- ation. The high school student body averaged about one hundred and twenty- five in number during Mr. Strebel's administration. Clayton E. Rose has been principal since 1925. Early in his term of office, the townspeople voted i150,000 for the construction of a new grade school and gymnasium, and remodeling of the old building. In 1929, a model home, under the supervision of the home-making department, took its place on the campus. H. H. Hawkins has retired from the Board of Education after serving for twenty-five years, his place having been taken by E. H. Stone. The faculty has increased in number from seventeen to twenty-four. There have been several important changes made, among them the addition to the curriculum of two new courses, French III and Chemistry, the adoption of the junior high school system in the upper grades, the establishment of a lib- rary, the addition of a full time physical director, and the organization of a central rural school system. The high school student body has increased in size by forty pupils, making the count one hundred-eighty at the present time. The grades have also increased in numbers, there being three hundred-twenty pupils at the present time. It is fitting to close this history with the names of the graduates of Hamil- ton High School who have achieved distinction. Among the more famous of these are Dr. Frederic Huntington, who is doing research work on the sub- ject of cancer, Dr. Orthello Langworthy, teaching at Johns Hopkins, Dr. Erastus Guller, practicing in Rochester, Ford Saunders, teaching music at Colgate University and Roy Abbey, teaching at Schenectady. Those who have achieved honors more recently, which honors have been in the form of State Scholarships, are: Elizabeth Foley, Samuel Benedict, Robert Taylor, Winifred Benedict, john Walsh, Marian Church, and Frederick Mosher. In closing, we wish to make a plea for forgiveness of all errors and omis- sions, which may be due to lack of records or uncertainty of the ones we do have. W. LANG. Thirty-eight vnhff, V, :i l k-,,' A , The Mystery Murder BY JACK VAN SLYKE Abie Levinski had just taken to his boarding-house the earnings of twenty years' work be- cause he was going to return to the old country. The sum of money was about one hundred thousand dollars. The two guards that had come with him were left at the door of his boarding- house and were returning to the bank when they heard a sharp report. just then a car with a fiat tire passed. The guards on seeing this walked back to the bank. Levinski was supposed to leave the next afternoon on the liner, Espania. It was nearing time for the boat to leave. The landlord at whose house Abie was residing thought he would see what was keeping Levinski. The landlord, whose name was Pally, on reaching Abie's door found it locked. Pally, of course, had a duplicate key, therefore he opened it. Inside he saw every- thing in perfect order. Levenski had his trunks and satchels all packed ready to leave. The landlord went into the bed-room. There lay Abie on the bed sound asleep. Pally went over and shook him. He didn't even budge, in fact he couldn't. Pally threw the sheets back. There was Abie all caked with blood. Abie had been shot through the heart. Pally rushed down the stairs. He hurriedly called the police. VVhen the police arrived they put guards around the house so that no one could enter or leave. A while after a detective arrived whose name was Allen. He went up the stairs and went into the death room. The first thing he did was to order everyone out. He then smelt ofthe air for any unfamiliar odor. Finding none he began searching the room for clues, such as fingerprints, shoemarks, and any little thing that would be of value. Allen did not find one thing. The murderer had probably worn gloves, as for shoe marks, there were none. There was not one clue. The next thing Allen looked for was any weapon that killed Abie. The detective looked until he found a pistol, which Pally said belonged to the dead man. Allen smelt of the barrel of the gun to dis- cover any trace of smoke. He thought there shouldn't be any, anyway, because if this was the gun that killed Abie it happened about twenty-four hours ago. The detective looked into the bul- let chamber, none of the bullets were missing, Still Allen bargained that this gun might have been the killer. He had it sent to the experimental laboratories. by a policeman. Allen then looked at the hole in Abie's breast. It apparently had been fired within two or three inches because the flesh was burned around where the bullet had entered. A startling discovery was made by the detective. The blood ran downward on the dead man's body, whereas if he had been lying down when shot the blood would have run down the side of his body. It was evident that Abie had been shot while either standing or sitting. The next thing the detective looked for was a way for the murderer to get invand out. It was impossible to go out the door because the landlord had said that no one had left. Neither could he have gotten out the windows because all of them faced the street. The detective said there must be some secret passage. Allen had experts tap the walls and floor, but all that was found was a large register in the fioor. The detective examined this and found a piece of cloth caught on a nail. The room underneath was the bedroom where Pally slept. From that moment Allen knew who had committed the murder. The murderer was placed under arrest and held without bail. His confession was simple, he knew Abie was going to get the money from the bank. Therefore he hired a driver for a thous- sand dollars to drive by the house at a certain time with a flat tire. He also gave the driver five hundred dollars extra to keep mum. He had then taken the register away and crawled upthrough it. NVhen Abie arrived, he made him at the point of the gun undress and get into his night clothes. The murderer then shot Abie just as the car went by. He then put him to bed, took the money and went back the way he came, and Fixed the register. Then next he had gone up to the dead man's room, and called the police so as to throw all suspicion from him. Pally was punished by the law and he walked to judgment before God with Abie Levinski.

Au, - General tudy Hall Report FIRST PERIOD Mrs. Pearsalli'-After half the study hall goes to the library, French room, and all points south, things go quite nicely. SECOND PERIOD Miss GaylorclZfAMiss Gaylord comes in as quiet as a mouse, rearranges several of the unrlerclass boys, and then sits clown to enjoy 21 peaceful hour. TIIIRD PERIOD Miss Downs:YStraclling has to get his daily prize light off his chest, Lang laughs a couple of times, and so the period is utterly ruined. FOURTH PERIOD Mr. Yaple:ASchool machinery goes very smoothly until a slight buzzing starts in the back of the room. Then Mr. Yaple becomes impolite and interrupts their little sewing circle. FIFTH PERIOD Miss FisherZAMiss Fisher flashes in, growls, buffaloes the crowd, and then spencls the period in blissful thoughts, and what thoughts. SIXTII PERIOD Miss Gardner?-Five minutes late as usual, and all athletic practice stops, except for the claily prize light of Hedemark and Ecllcins versus Gardner. SEVENTH PERIOD Miss Rice:-The peewees start a gentle game of football for anybocly's benefit, but the teacher cloesn't like their faces, so she calls time out. Forty-three -5 'Y'r, 1115 at ' , Blessings on thee, little dame, Bareback girl, knees the same, With thy turned-down silken hose, And thy short transparent clothes, With thy bobbed hair's jaunty grace And the make up on thy face, VVith thy red lips reddened more, Smeared with lipstick from the store From my heart I give thee joy, Glad that I was born a boy. Blessings on thee little shiek, Hotter than a lightning streak, Balloon trousers, empty head, Socks and ties of Haming red: Marcelled hair, and grease galore, Latest perfume from the storeg With the talcum on thy face, And thy cane to add thee grace. From my heart there bursts forth joy Glad that I am not 11 boy. It was a lovely day for fishing. Vl'hen I awoke it was raining torrents. Shortly after I had breakfasted the sun shone but was soon covered and a series of thunderstorms fol- lowed. Well- 'I'll go fishing, I said to myself. Dick fmy brotherl and I, oiled up our reels and other tackle and started off in the old car. We went to Lebanon Reservoir. Here we cast for bass offa point-no-luck! Then we hired a boat-Ah! Our luck began. My brother reeled in without much trouble, three small black bass. Then, as I made an extra good cast, after the plug hit the water, the reel suddenly whirled letting out twenty- live feet of line. Hoy! What a strike! F C lsh The Fish tore back nearer the boat and I reeled in a few feet. Then he tore off on another rampage. He leaped high out of the water. I made a big mistake, I slacked upon the line and he twisted over in the air and almost shook the plug but luckily it held. I recog- nized him as a large-mouthed bass. He cer- tainly was a whopper but he was not in the boat yet. Slowly with many furious attacks, he weakened after the worst battle I have ever had, some twenty-five minutes of hand-fight- ing. I Hnally got him by the boat side and just as I reached out to net my ten pound bass a big wave hit the boat and-Blub! Blub! H. G.

I say darkened because the lights had been switched oFf but the fireplace held a small, sputtering fire which cast weird shadows upon the walls, making a most uncanny setting for such tales. One particularly thrilling tale had gone on to some extent and Hnally the crisis had arrived. Everyone was tense and expectant. As the gorilla man was about to fall prey to a bottle held in the hand of our hero, the speaker tipped a vase from a precarious posi- tion.. Pandemonium reigned. Imagine my embarrassment on finding myself under a table in an adjoining room. P S '31 Ledrly: I want some Mennen's powder for dc bebyf, Sales boy: O.
