 C L A 8 3 HISTORY Early In the fall of 19 +5 the excited voices of some thirty or more fresh- men could be heard through the halls of Beuvelton High School. Although our money raising activities were very muoh restricted, we were allowed to hold a box social Jointly with the sophomores. From this we added a few dollars to our treasury which we had started in the eighth grade. During our sophomore year we didn't function much as a class. With the help of our class advisor, Mies Cross, we presented an assembly program on St. Valentine's Day. In our junior year we quickly became important. We ordered our class rings and received them late in the fall. We were very flattered when our class was given the responsibility of publishing the Yearbook. From a contest which we held, we selected the name Memories of Heuvelton High for It. Although our profits netted us only about 15 00, everyone agreed we had a nice yearbook. On May 21et we held the Annual Spring Prom. The orchestra for the occasion was the Collegians. The hall was decorated in pastel colors with flowers in the center. We gained about $5 00 from this affair. Now we have reached our senior year with twenty members in the class. With such a large class we had to start earning money fast. In the fall we took charge of picture distribution and realized §21.35 in profits from this. At the same time we carried on the magazine drive which netted us $120. During the fall we sold candy and soft drinks at football games. We sold Christmas cards and wrapping paper. On November 23rd we held a dance and raffled off a turkey and made about 99.05. We continued selling candy at noon. On Decem- ber 3rd we sponsored the Senior Play from Lisbon and made $32,75» On February 22nd, a school holiday, we held our Annual Supper and Auction and were overwhelmed at the sight of the profit, approximately 225» We wish to thank Mr. Leamy for donating his services. We also wish to thank Miss Hutchinson and Mrs. Terwilliger for their help. Our sincere appreciation goes to Mrs. Peter Obei’bach, who as class advisor, helped us so much. In March we presented our Senior Play entitled, We Shook the Family Tree , under the capable direction of Mrs. Edgar Hendee, our English instructor. It was a hilarious three-act comedy which turned out to be unusually successful and was immensely enjoyed by everyone. Our presentation of the play at the Town Hall in Heuvelton netted us over $265. We later presented it at the Lisbon School. From the orocee s of the play we gained the .necessary funds to send us on our trip, (P. S. Will you ever forget Newell Stewart as Freddie in those short pants ?) On April 15th we left for Washington and New York. We were taken on guided tours of many places of Interest including the Lincoln Memorial, Mount Vernon, Christ §hurch, the George Washington Memorial, and were awe—stricken at the sight of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Sunday morning most of us attended Easter Sunrise Services at Arlington. The rest of that day and the rest of our stay in Washington was spent mostly in guided tours and sightseeing. Some took in the opening day ball game at Griffith Stadium while others went shopping. We srent two busy and happy days In New York. We saw a television show, a radio broadcast, the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Radio City Music Hall, and Chinatown. We will always remember our trip and were glad to have the opportunity of going, but we were glad to get hose. After our trip we did not have much to do except study hard and wait for the “big day . On June 2?th the important time in all our lives arrived. We were graduated from high school. Although we are gone from school, we hope we will not be forgotten •- ff Sk 1 4 THIS PAGE SPONSORED BY HOTEL DENNY, HEUVELTON, NEW YORK ITWWM U WT71MVZ rTTHTTTn.,
