JU IOS The class of '56 began the year by selecting as officers: Presi- dent, Ray Eddy, Vice-President, John Boulas, Secretary, Jan Van Duserg Treasurer, Catharine Burris, and Historian, Dorothy Sleeper. Mr. Thomas is class advisor for the Junior class. Now for some notes on the highlights of the year: The class play, My Little Margie, gave the Juniors their first real chance to make money for their class. Christmas gifts welcomed by all were the class rings which arrived iust before Christmas vaca- tion. The first dance of 1955 was sponsored by the Juniors who named it, believe it or not, the Flunkers' Fling! An annual event at H.C.S. is Junior clay when the Juniors are the people in the spotlight during the day and at the assembly pro- gram. The most looked-for day finally arrived and the school was amazed by the spectacular Junior Prom' which the class of '56 produced as the last event of a very eventful year. ww l ' xi PESXCVFCEV, GNGAOFG H I l N ,A W kr , f-ecescf, Dcfne Q 53512:-4, Sewers 5 Eikif flier hx Efcrng.-.5f, Qsy Eecrcsrev, -5 .

A dance, The Snowman Shuffle, was sponsored by the Freshmen class with Katharine Curtiss heading the dance committees. It proved to be one of the profitable highlights of their school year.

U' 5 f Al' f f Student Council The Student Council is in reality the high school governing body and has proven to you to be gov- ernment of the students, by the students and for the students. The Council began serving the student body before school opened as the officers prepared, during the summer months, a handbook which was distributed at registration. This proved most helpful since rooms were reorganized with the moving of the Junior High from the High School building. A student council supply store was opened and ready for business in Room 32 the first day of school. lseated Miss Margraff, Judy Hlywa, Cynthia Janne, Ray Eddy, Marlea Merry, Ben Lynch, Carol Shappee, lstandingl First Raw: Sharon Howland, Gloria Saulter, Sylvia Dilmore, Nancy Bald- win, Nancy Goodwin, Virginia Dlsfgxtgq ,!vlcCr ight, Jean , u..x .l IW? As soon as homeroom representatives were elected, meetings were held every Tuesday noon, The permanent store committee was appointed to advertise as well as to operate the well stocked student supply center. A permanent school calendar committee prepared and printed bi-monthly a cal- endar listing current school activities. Throughout the year, the Council carried out projects for the improvement of the school and 're benefit of the student body. Kihlstrom, Betty Vosburgh, Caroline Smith.

During the week of intensive campaigning, huge signs were hung in the halls, party pins and arm-bands were handed out, and mimeo- graphed booklets were distributed to the whole school. The Students' Choice party jj organized a band and, the day before elec- ' tions, drove through the streets seeking votes. The Students' Choice party swept the election in a vote of the Junior and Senior High School. , . Get on the bandwagon. During the World Series, H. C. S. students were able to follow the action on television. The Council made arrangements with Jim Vorhees and Hanrahan's of Elmira to install a 21-inch set in the auditorium. Students were excused from study hall to watch the games. H. T. Day Study Hall! X s One of the major Student Council projects this year was Homer Thomas Day, a benefit held at the Horseheads-Heights football game. Homer, son of our math and science teacher, was seriously injured in an accident just before graduation last year, The committee, headed by Terry Dilmore, sold printed programs of the game and arranged to receive part of the gate pro- ceeds. The Varsity 'H' Club donated half of their profits from the refreshment stand and more funds were raised from program advertising. A check for 5200 was given to Homer. 5 , .ya v This year the Student Council officers publish- ed a handbook containing the rules, practices, ond general information about Horseheads High for the use of all the students. Pictured is one of the floor diagrams drawn for the book by Jan VanDusen. Rocket ships, flying saucers, and two-headed monsters lent a futuristic atmosphere to the Student Council sponsored dance, Out of This World held January 29th. The Zagalin Trio furnished music for round dancing. Sheila Burris, Nancy Goodwin, and Ray Cass prepare for the big night.

Club earnestly hopes that in his hour of need she will have forgotten that yesterday his conduct in her domain was a shade less than angelic. She may remember, but part of her iob is to render aid and comfort even to such a sinner, so she deftly produces the perfect book. Fitting the right book to the right student is but one of the many services performed by members of the Library Club, an organization which has served our school for more than twenty-five years. Since the qualifications for membership are extremely high, it is rightly considered a signal honor to be one of those chosen, since the quality of the service rendered through the years has also been high, this club deservedly enjoys great prestige in our school. 85.1, bw v ii Wednesday noon Book Review.

With all the copy completed by the deadline, the task of rewriting and typing began. After the type had been set, proofreading eliminated remain- ing errors. By the time the papers were rolled off the press and folded, the students were anxious to see if their names were in the gossip column, A.B.C.'s, or Hit Parade. The two super issues of the year were the Christmas issue, with its green printing and pictures, and the graduation issue, with its numerous expres- sions of farewell to the Class of 1955. 52 Horse Sense All columns are due Wednesday. They must be in ink, legible, containing the very latest news. If you were assigned to write a column for the Horse Sense, these words will be familiar. After the staff was picked, a vigorous adver- tising campaign began under the direction of Busi- ness Manager Ray Schultz. The staff shared a feel- ing of encouragement as the ads came in. The time to publish the first issue approached, A Halloween theme was planned, columns were assigned, and the feature writers eagerly began Ray Schultz, Business Manager, Pat Carnegie, Head Typist, Ed Smith, Circulation Manager. 49 Horse Sense Hall salesmen are mobbed when the newspaper appears.

For the first time classes and organizations bought yearbook pages. This, to- gether with an increase in subscriptions and advertis- ing, has made possible the increased size of the book. A thorough coverage of class and organiza- tion activities uses much of the extra room. The activity section itself is an innovation. There definitely is 'More U in the Equestrian.' Mr. Thomas, the advisor, picked the top staff in May last year. These people immediately began making plans for the 1955 yearbook. The art style, which is patterned after Mondrian's work, was worked out during the summer. Methods of raising money were discussed and deliberated. Soon after school opened, the rest of the staff was chosen. Within a month, the advertising and subscription campaigns were under way. Work be- hind the scenes was going on, too, as individual pages were planned and the photographers covered events that would be part of the year's record. All the deadlines were met and now we can see the result of our year's work. Here is your 1955 Equestrian.

When football season ended the same football band was transformed into a concert band, which im- mediately began concentrating on music for the annual spring concert. Expert musicianship was displayed at the concert. The year was ended with the melodious strains of Pomp and Circumstance played by the band at graduation. ,l rf' - I , ' , 2. 14 '2 A fi 3 1' Y fix, 1, YT 4' x-gtg, l l l l F 1 1 f lil!! trim-:lunar X - - A DANCE BAND: Soxophones-Dicne Wheorer, Joe Bclog, Delores Hayes, Deanie Pickering, Judy Mickle, Trumpets-Sully Tote, Jeffrey Roy, Jomes Lechliter, Drums-Diane Anderson, Tuba-Fronlc Jogo, Trombones-Joe Red- field, Ken?

The main loss is revealed in the fact that only one-fourth of the starting backtield will return. Radzavicz was the bigfgun of the Raider attack. His loss in the Homer game and his handicap with a bad knee against Edison in the season closer held down both his own per- formance and the team's totals.

Mrs. Simmons is greatly impressed by Roger, but Henry does not share her enthusiasm. He is determined that Ethel shall marry his partner, Chester Binney, who is a slovenly, care- less man with a simple but humorous disposition. Ethel is amused at the idea of marrying Chester, but her interest increases when she hears of a past love affair between Chester and Letty Lythe, a famous movie star.
