CLASS HISTORY FRESHMAN YEAR In September 1958 a bewildered freshman class entered the doors of Hoosick Falls Central School not knowing what to expect. 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
