Hoosac School - Owl Yearbook (Hoosick, NY)

jFnrefoorh The Sixth Form and the Owl Board proudly present this year’s OWL. Again we have been able to publish a hard bound edition. This would have been impossible had it not been for the tireless work of our business managers. Tink Elliot and Murray Britton, and their assistants, Frank Romary, Gerry Benzinger and John Bobak. At the same time, we want to acknowledge that last year’s managers, Gerry Guild and David Goodrich, set a fine example with their hard bound edition, which up to that time was the first one in over thirty years. We hope that in years to come, hard bound Owls will become an unbreakable tradition. Our format is based upon the design of a former editor, Dave Bliss. It is in four parts. Seniors, Activities, Festivals, and Sports. Our yearbook is a compressed synthesis of the highlights of our school year. We hope that you enjoy our OWL of 1956.

He was vice president of the H Club and a member of both the soccer and basketball teams. Jerry also belonged to the choir. His favorite pastime is sleeping, but every once in a great while the “plastic man” wanders blandly over to Hoosick Falls to give the girls a thrill. (Bennington girls just don’t rate.) As vice president of the H Club he tries to keep order, but with Hoby and Rebel there that’s impossible. Who knows, someday he might play for the Celtics.
