Hoosick Falls Central School - Vagabond Yearbook (Hoosick Falls, NY)

Text from Pages 1 - 96 of the 1962 volume:

THE CLASS OF 1962 HOOSICK FALL8 CENTRAL 8CHOOL HOOSICK FALLS, NEW YORK PRESENTS THE VAGABOND The theme of the 1962 Vagabond is, From Old to New, for this is the exciting year in which we left the old but beloved Walter A. Wood Build- ing. In November of 1961, we entered the magnificent, awe-inspiring modern school building on the River Road. We carried with us many memories of our years on the hilltop, but this nostalgia was gradually tempered by an awareness of the greatly improved facilities now at our disposal. A new school does not, by itself, mean sudden and automatic better learning, yet it provides the environment for a rejuvenated spirit, for the partial fulfillment of our hopes and ambitions, and it contains the tools 2 DEDICATION Left to right: Mr. Fredrick J. McGuire, Mr. Dewey Me Cart, Mr. Charles L. Frazier, Dr. Harry P. Harrison, Mr. Clyde Baker, President, Mr. Arthur E. Smith, Mr. Earl Goodermote, Mr. Ralph T. Moll. Absent: Mr. John S. Davison. We, the members of the graduating class of 1962, dedicate this year's Vagabond to a group of citizens who have given up much of their free time in order to make improvements in our educational system. To them we owe our fondest gratitude, for among other accomplish- ments they played a great part in the centralization of our school district which eventually led to the construction of our new school building. It is therefore with great pleasure that we dedicate our yearbook to the Board of Education. 3 SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE To the Class of 1962: Congratulations The completion of your high school education is a mark of achievement of which you can be justly proud. We hope this has given you a foundation for continued learning in whatever field of endeavor you may pursue. On behalf of the faculty and staff, may I extend our most sincere best wishes to all. 4 Superintendent TTFTI ADMINISTRATION FACULTY MR. BERTRAM STRITCH English Colby College A.B.

After a few weeks of pandemonium the class elected officers who were to carry the class through its first challenging year. The officers were: President--Alice Gulley, Vice President --Linda Bender, Treasurer—Sandy Hayes, and Secretary--Shirley Fairbanks. The Student Council Representatives, also chosen at this time, were Leslie Miles, William Webster, andMadelyn Balder. Even though the class was young, with the excellent assistance of its advisors, Miss Hulihan, Mr. Eastwick, and Miss Boyce, many projects were accomplished. Among other things the class held a record hop entitled April Showers, a Freshman Christmas Party, and a very success- ful food sale. SOPHOMORE YEAR The second year of high school for our class was equally as successful as our first. With the adoption of the half-day session our free time in school was rather limited and it put an extra burden on our class officers. The officers at this time were: President—Fern Buswell, Vice President —Linda Bender, Treasurer—Burton Pine, and Secretary—Alice Gulley. Our Student Council Representatives were Douglas Pokines, Madelyn Balder, Alice Gulley, and Sandra Yerke. The sophomore class made quite a profit by selling name pins which became very popular around the whole school. Our class has always been known for its successful dances, and the presentation of the Mardi Gras during the year was by no means an exception. As it was Leap Year, the girls were permitted to ask the boys to this dance. Of course we owe much of the success of this year to our advisors, Mr. Roy, Miss Iler, Miss Micklos, and Mr. Bullock. JUNIOR YEAR Our junior year seemed to be our busiest. This was the year we had all been waiting for. We received our class rings and we had the honor of being the first class to own the new standardized ring. During 1960-61 our class sponsored the Winter Ball and, early in the spring, a square dance. The most important event, of course, was the Junior Prom. The class officers were: President--Burton Pine, Vice President--George McKearin, Treas- urer—William Webster, and Secretary—Madelyn Balder. Student Council Representatives were Georgia Main, Jacqueline Senecal, and Shirley Fairbanks. Our advisors for this eventful year were Mr. Peckham, Mr. Altobell, and Mr. Rov. SENIOR YEAR The years seemed to rush by and before we knew it we were seniors. In the fall of our final year we elected the following officers: President—William Lapp, Vice Preside nt - -Burton Pine, Treasurer--William Webster, and Secretary--Madelyn Balder. Our Student Council Representatives were Susan Burke, Alice Gulley, and Jacqueline Senecal. We started the year off by a magazine sale, with the profits going to the publication of our yearbook. After Thanksgiving we moved into the new school and held the first Winter Ball entitled, Mistletoe and Holly. The advisors for our last and most memorable year were Mr. Bullock, Mrs. Von Hacein. and Mr. Stritch. 10 SENIORS BARBARA ANN ALLEN Wistful . . . silence is mis- leading . . . have gum—will chew.

JUNIORS The Junior Class, after elections were held, started the year with a very successful record hop. Our next project was the selling of Hoosier sweatshirts, which were eagerly received by the students. Of course, the class is anxious to get their rings which will be presented to them at a Junior-Senior banquet in June. Measurements for the rings were taken on March 2nd. The biggest event of the year, the Junior Prom, is yet in it’s infancy. Although the theme and date of the prom are undecided, we are sure it will be a momentous affair.

The year 1960 was Leap Year, and, as we all know, this is the year when the tables turn and the girls get a chance to court the boys. Our class thought it would be appropriate to sponsor a dance entitled ' Mardi Gras, wherein the girls would be given the opportunity to ask their favorite beau. This dance, being quite irregular, caused a great deal of excitement around school, and provoked an unusual amount of interest, resulting in a never-to-be-forgotten affair. The Phil Foote Quintet supplied fine music, and the highlight of the evening was the crowning of the king.

WINTERLAND BY NIGHT In the winter of 1961, a big question arose: Were we going to have a winter ball, and if so, who was going to sponsor it? The senior class usually undertook this responsibility, but because of existing condi- tions, were unable to do so at the time. Our class, then in its junior year, volunteered to take over. On December 23, 1961, we sponsored the Winter Ball with theme Winterland-By- Night. While anxiously awaiting the main event of the evening, the crowning of the queen, we danced to the music of Lyn Chapman. Another successful dance had been sponsored by the Class of 1962. SOUTHERN TWILIGHT 35 Left to Right: Tod Areson, Shirley Fairbanks, Carl Fowler, Micki Balder, Maurice Andrew, Alice Gulley, 1960 Prom Queen Sherry Norton, Roger Bushee, 1961 Queen Linda Bender, King Wayne Bouplon, Sandy Hayes, Clint Freeman, Sandy Yerke, Charles Filkins, Fern Buswell, Walt Sausville. Is there a class which enters high school without the thrill and anxiety of someday spon- soring the Junior Prom? Our class was by no means an exception. Starting early in our Junior year we were leafing through pamphlets and catalogs con- cerning Prom decorations. We were sure that we were going to make this a night to remember. By the night of the Prom, the Prom Committee had transformed the old gym into a breathtaking plantation scene in accordance with our theme, Southern Twilight. We danced from nine to twelve, to the music of the Lyn Chapman Quintet, with the high point of the evening being the crowning of the queen. Everyone who attended will always remember our Prom, not only because it provided a most enjoyable evening, but because it was to be the last Prom held in the old high school. 37 MISTLETOE AND HOLLY 'Seemed like everything was happening in the month of De- cember, 1961. No sooner had we moved into the new school than the seniors began planning for the Winter Ball. Our theme was to be Mistletoe and Holly, and we chose De- cember 22, 1961, as the date for our dance. The night finally arrived and this dance proved to be equally as successful as our others. Music for this memorable affair was furnished by Paul Kreiger and his trio. yS CO LU OR FIRST ROW: Sandra Yerke, Kathy Chapman, Fem Buswell, Mary Ann Sluzas.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Tapping for Honor Society has been moved up from May to late February or early March. Teachers choose from a list of eligible Juniors and Seniors those few who will receive the honor of being tapped. The students are evaluated on the basis of their activities and performance in school. Honor Society gives recognition for true leadership in all aspects of school life and not merely leadership in a scholastic sense. This is illustrated by four qualities which are deemed most desirable by the Society--the qualities of Scholarship, Leadership, Char- acter and Service. Remaining members before 1962 tapping. 40 QTUDENT COUNCIL President--Susan Burke Vice-President—Bill Lapp Treasurer—Dick Lassor Secretary--Alice Gulley The Student Council was divided into committees to take care of such things as assemblies, dances, elections, gripes, tours of the new school, and our foreign exchange student. The honor of holding the first dance in the new school went to Student Council. The first one hundred dollars for our foreign student was raised at this dance. Our next project was a Christmas Party for selective children from our elementary wing. Our biggest project was part of the community effort to raise money for a foreign student. We held an assembly to kick off the program of selling shares. The shares were sold on a competitive basis among the homerooms. Quotas on a percentage basis of two shares per person were established so that the smaller homerooms could com- pete with the larger ones. Mr. Beaulieau's homeroom went the farthest over its quota by selling an average of seven shares per person. For their outstanding effort and cooperation they received a trophy. The money we re- ceived from our Foreign Exchange Student Dance and from the shares exceeded our goal. We also worked on forming a district association of Student Councils consisting of schools within our area. At our first meeting we had as guest speaker a Foreign Exchange Student from Italy, who is attending Shaker High. He spent the day at the school, was received in Mr. East wick's home by a group of seniors, and returned for the meet- ing that evening at which a spaghetti supper was served. Our projects have been many, our time short, but under Mr. Eastwick's capable guidance, we the Student Council, have had a very successful year. Left to Right, FIRST ROW: J. Filkins, B. Pine, T.

PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB A photography club, the first in several years, was organized shortly after we moved into the new school building . With the up-to-date darkroom facilities, the club members can learn the procedures in photography, from the snap of shutter to the finished print. The club has twenty-four members, selected from more than sixty applicants. Because of its large membership, the club was broken down into three groups with Mr. Eastwick, Mr. Altobell, and Mr. Peckham as advisors. A variety of photographic experiences will come from club activities: candid photography, landscapes, portraits, sports, close-ups, color, and the complete processing of films and prints. Eventually the club hopes to earn money by taking pictures and selling them, and investing this money in additional equipment. The above picture is a sample of the fine work done by the photography club. 42 NEWSPAPER The main job of our school newspaper is to inform the students about matters concern- ing them and to report subjects of interest to them. This we have tried to do during this school year. We have standardized the cover (modeled after the shield on our class rings) and chosen the name River Road Rambler that we hope will last for many years. — TTTT H1H- m r RIVER ROAD RAMBLER 43 FIRST ROW, left to right: G.

In the future we plan to enter a project in the Schaghticoke Fair, to sponsor a semi-formal dance, and to put on the annual dinner for club members. Mrs. Miller was our advisor for part of the school year, while in her absence, we had Miss Elizabeth Blum to offer ideas and to advise us. 45 Left to Right, FIRST ROW: S. Prebble, G. Main, S.

The duties of the library club members are to keep the shelves in order, to work at the desk and to assist elementary students. Also, monthly four girls arrange exhibits for the library display case. OFFICERQ 46 President—Doris Mason Vice-President—Joyce Townsend Secretary-Treasurer--Jean Hoag The purpose of this organization is the finished product in your hands. We have attempted to make our book more enjoy- able to each of you. In February we held a fund-raising dance entitled Vagabond Hop which proved a large success with the many variations of the Limbo and the Twist being exhibited. The photography club's aid as well as the help of our advisors and Mr. Leonard were greatly appreciated by all. Many long hours of hard work have gone into the making of this book with each staff member diligently completing his job. We hope you enjoy the VAGABOND 1962.

Luther Everly has close to seventy members this year. Appearing for concert in semi-formal wear, they play music ranging from popular music to that of highest symphonic calibre. The band rehearses three times weekly for a full rehearsal while each member reports for individual instruction once per week. Concerts are given at Christmas-time and again in the spring of the year. There is the annual music program for the Hoosick Grange which the band played again this year. Concerts were given in area high schools upon invitation of the music directors of those schools. Hoosick Falls Central School was well-represented in both the All-County and All-State bands this year by having a large number of its musicians qualified and selected for these groups. The concert band, small groups taken from the band, and several in- dividuals participated in the music competition held each year by the State Music As- sociation. They all received high ratings. Hoosick Falls also acted as host to the Rensselaer County Music Association by re- ceiving the All-County bands and chorus in our new school this year. The year's activity rounded out with the performance by the band at graduation. The band wishes the best of everything to its graduating seniors, they will be missed next year. 48 BOTTOM ROW: B.

Mrs. Eloise Canzeri, Director CHORUS In quality and numbers, the chorus is growing each year. This year’s Christ- mas recital, our first public appear- ance in our new auditorium, met with hearty approval. We were well- represented last fall in the area All- State Sectional Festival held at Hudson, New York. Hoosick Falls was host, this year, to the Rensselaer All-County Festival in March. The annual Spring Concert, the Tri-State Music Festival, graduation, and the N. Y .S .S. M. A. Spring Festival are events in which the chorus appears. SPORTS FOOTBALL 1961 The Varsity Football Team, with but four seniors on the squad, showed a vast improve- ment over last year's team, by compiling a 3-4 record. With many underclassmen in starting roles, experience cost the Blue and White some early season pitfalls, but effort and overall teamwork saw them improve, as each game was played. The season was climaxed with two successive wins, and with 22 of 26 players return- ing, hopes are high for a league contender next year. The loss of Bill Wade, John Harrison, Dick White, and Bill Lapp will be felt, but re- serves showed fine promise, and will help fill the gaps. H.F.C.S. 7 . . 25 . . 19 . . 0 . . 26 . . 37 . . 6 . .

Absent: Ted Smith, Larry Baker, Mgr., Tony Hayes, Mgr. The 1961-62 Junior Varsity basketball team enjoyed a very successful season. Under the direction of Coach Gilchrest the team won 14 games and lost 4. Almost every game this year was very close and provided many thrills for the fans. The team was led by the rebounding of Sam Cottrell, Paul Kipp, and Ronnie Bouplon with Don Decker and Gary Niegoda setting up offensive plays. Although we will lose some of the boys to the varsity we are looking forward to another good season next year.

CHEERLEADERS 54 VARSITY BASKETBALL FIRST ROW: Coach Kenyon, Jim Whittet, manager, Ray Niles, manager, Dale Frost, scorekeeper, Varsity team: Steve Sorkin, Doug Eighmey, Bob Williams, Don Eighmey, Dick Lassor, Ed Decker, Mike McCoubrey, John Harri- son, Skip Starr. With team effort, and defense as the key words to success, the blue and white combined to establish an excellent team record. After losing to Stillwater in the opener, they chalked up eight straight victories before having the same team stop them with a two point victory. Underclassmen Skip Starr, Doug Eighmey, Bob Williams, Dick Lassor, and Don Eigh- mey came along well to fill three vacated positions and along with Ed Decker and John Harrison, they made the Hoosiers once again a much feared club in the Washington County League.
