In fact, the Housatonic Valley Regional High School, as the only such school in actual operation in the New England states, has received national recognition as a unique educa- tional institution and has served as a model for many rural areas. The 1952 WHITE OAK pays tribute to the citizens of the six towns in the north- western corner of Connecticut whose foresight in planning and providing a superior type of secondary education has made possible a school building valued at a million and a quarter dollars and equipped to serve effectively the educational needs of some five hundred students in an area of 277 square miles. Now in its thirteenth year of operation and with its building completed, the Regional High School stands as a living symbol of the genius of democratic cooperation. As students who have profited most from the educational opportunities provided by Regional, we are deeply grateful for the untiring efforts of the Regional High School Board, the able administration of Dr. Stoddard, who has headed the school for thirteen years, and the generous and loyal support of the citizens of Canaan, Cornwall, Kent, North Canaan, Salisbury, and Sharon. - THB EDITOR. 1 , . 6 , ,Jimi Qgggliffnfgi A q52wfg1E?K A 623 239 H fs I X 'yy if HOUSATON IC DEDICATION As a token of our appreciation for his invaluable service in sponsoring the junior Assembly, the junior Prom, and the Senior Ball, for his helpful guidance in the Dramatic Club and Pen and Scroll, and for his enthusiastic, cheerful disposition and sense of humor, We of the Class of 1952 dedicate THE WHITE OAK to H. LINCOLN FOSTER 4 i CANAAN In CANAAN at Falls Village the Great Falls of the Housatonic were exploited in the eighteenth century to provide power for a paper mill and gun-barrel factory . . . in the nineteenth century for iron forging and later for railroad shops . . . Today only a power plant remains in operation with the natural beauty of the land of milk and honey untouched by modern industrial life . . . From the top of Music Mountain the dulcet strains of chamber music have replaced the noisy hum of machinery . . . Standing: Mr. Hart, Mr. Luce, Mr. Wczrthington, Mr. Davies.

OF LASS C 55 7 OF SS LA C CLASS HISTORY Well, it finally happened! It was September, 1948, and we were really getting up in the world, for we were now proud freshmen at HVRHS. Being new students in a strange school C strange to us, that ish, we didn't participate in too many clubs. Civics Club and intramurals were about the only extracurricular activities in which our class was repre- sented. Lee Fuller and Topper Smith were our delegates to the Student Council. During this year the Council again organized a Carnival Ball with a Mexican fiesta as its theme. The FHA, which sponsored the World Christmas Festival, presented a nativity pageant. For their annual play, the seniors chose Fly Away Home, a comedy in three acts. This year both our basketball and football teams just missed top honors, ending up in second place in the league. The baseball team, however, walked away with the league cham- pionship. September, 1949, found us back at HVRHS but camped C temporarily, we hopedj on the second floor. We began the year by electing Polly Ann Miller and john Snyder to the Student Council and re-electing Lee Fuller and Topper Smith as permanent members. This was the first year for five new members of the staff, Miss Bamforth, Mrs. Scriber, Mr. Tappey, Mr. jackson, and Miss Weir, secretary to Dr. Stoddard. We found that three teachers had left us, Mr. Wogan, Mrs. Graham, and Mrs. Dorsett. A new course, Home and Family Living, was instituted, and the Chess Club and the Spinners were organizations added to our extra-curricular activities. The Allied Youth Post, a club for those concerned with the problem of alcoholism and youth, was also organized. We were very much excited over taking part in a Parents' Night program in the late fall, our first since we entered the school. In October, Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt was the principal speaker at a ceremony which commemorated the tenth anniversary of the founding of the school. The senior play this year was Dear Ruth, directed by Miss Gesell, with joan Cantwell as chairman. In the way of sports, HVRHS found its football team tied for second place with Bethel. The basketball team, under the new name of The Wolfpack, completed its schedule with nine wins and nine losses, but found itself tournament-bound. Our baseball team did very well this year also, ending up in second place in the league. We began our junior year under the leadership of Topper Smith, president, Nancy Hart, vice-president, Ingrid Jansen, secretary, and Peter Kenny, treasurer. Several new members were added to the faculty. They were Mr. Kobler, who was to teach the new senior course, General Englishg Miss McAuliffe, homemakingg Mrs. Jenkin- son, who taught girls' physical education and also served as school nurseg Mr. Foster, English and social studies, Mr. England, scienceg and Mrs. Vosburgh, librarian. Those teachers who had left Regional were Miss St. james, our nurseg Miss Bartram, our librarian, Mr. Tappey, Miss Bamforth, Mrs. Segalla, and Mr. Jackson. With us that year were three German exchange students who were readily welcomed and well-liked at Regional. They were Christa Maria Schacht of the senior class, Sylvia Bachmann of the junior class, and Giinter Kemper of the sophomore class. Nancy Hart, Peter Kenny, and Pat Fallon were elected to the Student Council. Pat took the place of John Snyder, who was no longer at Regional. Two new clubs were formed that year. They were the Dramatic Club and the Varsity Club. The Dramatic Club presented something different in the way of a Christmas assembly: a dramatized version of the story, Why the Chimes Rang. The Glee Club added much to the effect by singing Christmas carols. In December it was announced that the student body would take two days off to take the nation-wide Iowa tests that are given at Regional every five years. Some called it a vacation, others called it a nightmare, but everyone was pleased at the high scores Regional students made. 35 j ,WHY , ,, ,?,,,T.a'..,, .... -,-, ...cm-V Y wr,-.,,.,:.,. . The Student Council once again presented the annual Carnival Ball. The theme was a gala Evening in Paris. As spring approached, all the clubs burst out in a fever of activity. The Latin Club put on a splendid Roman banquet, complete with wrestlers and an Egyptian dancer. We put all our energies into making our Junior Assembly the most original one ever and came up with the idea of a television show. Our success was due in great part to the keen wit and interest of Mr. Foster, our adviser. The seniors selected Outward Bound, a drama of a more serious nature, for their annual play. The teachers also were apparently affected by spring fever, for after twelve years' effort they brought forth a Faculty Assembly, led by Dr. Stoddard in a pink fluorescent tie that kept the students screaming with laughter. The theme chosen for our Junior Prom was Stardust. Ingrid Jansen reigned as a radiant queen,with Berkley Kelsey as chairman. Mr. Foster, our adviser, helped to make it a great success. This year both our football and baseball teams took the championship in the Housa- tonic Valley Schoolmen's League. We had reason to be proud of the basketball players, too, as they finished their season with eleven wins and six losses. Beginning in the fall, construction was started on the new wing at the south end of the school. At last we had reached the peak of our high school education and found ourselves seniors! Like most other senior classes, we were encamped in 106 with Ricky again in charge. The new teachers who took their places at Regional were Mr. Eaton, in Agriculture, Miss Judson, who was to teach the new course, Arts and Crafts, Miss Dodd, who took Mrs. Jenkinson's place as nurse and physical ed teacher, and Miss Osborne, homemaking. Miss Meehan surprised us all by returning in September as Mrs. Holian. We elected as class president Berkley Kelsey, assisted by Stuart Barratt as vice-president. Jean Beeman was elected secretary and Bob Egan, treasurer. Our representatives to the Student Council this year were Joe Schaefer and Larry McCabe. This year marked the beginning of the night classes in various subjects for adults in the Regional High School district. At Christmas time a very effective assembly was produced. The story was The Other Wise Man, adapted for presentation by the new Pen and Scroll Club, and given by the Dramatic Club. Mr. Meder's Glee Club sang Christmas carols. At the Christmas assembly, Dr. Stoddard announced that Mrs. Holian was resigning. Everyone regretted that she was leaving the faculty, for we all miss her sympathetic help and understanding. Miss Dodd was appointed acting Dean of Girls, and Mrs. Adams of Kent joined the staff to teach English, civics and mathematics. During the Christmas vacation our Senior Ball was held. Its theme was Silver Bells. After the new year, the seniors really began to get rolling. Topper Smith was chosen editor of the WHITE OAK, and David Winn was elected business manager. Tryouts for the senior play You Can't Take It With You, were soon in progress, with Judy Harvey as chairman and stage manager. Mr. Kobler, our faculty adviser, guided it to success. Ingrid Jansen was thrilled to be chosen National Ski Queen and to preside over the ball that was held the night of the national ski meet in Salisbury. Our magazine campaign, captained by Joyce Sherman and Peter Kenny, netted over 83900, well over the amount collected by last year's senior class. Now our years at Regional have come to an end, and we are prepared for the difficult future ahead of us. With all our hearts we thank the teachers and students of HVRHS for having made these past four years so happy and memorable. JEANNINE PEKRUL. AND WARREN S.

The purpose of the Student Council is to serve as a medium of communication between the faculty and the student body, to promote school activities, to stimulate better school spirit, to develop student responsibility, initiative, and leadership, and to promote the general welfare of the school. In the school year 1951-1952 the Student Council has accomplished a number of things. It sponsored sev- eral dances and a formal, Spring Fantasy. In October PETER J. KENNY POLLY ANN MILLER ........ MRS, SCRIBER, MR, DORSETI' the council held an assembly for freshmen. It published programs for football and basketball games. The mem- bers are also publishing a handbook for the incoming freshmen and new students which will be distributed next fall. The council set up a fund for a new score- board which, it is hoped, will be purchased in the near future. In accord with the policy set up by last year's council, profits from the sale of soda at basketball games were shared with the Varsity Club. ftaas.

Students are elected to the organization by the faculty of the school, its judgment being based upon the schol- arship, leadership, service, and character of the student. Emphasis is placed upon the last two qualifications. In this manner the society differs from Phi Beta Kappa and Cum Laude, two similar organizations, which base membership upon scholarship alone. Each year five per cent. of the junior class and ten per cent. of the senior class are elected to the society. Those of the junior class must stand in the upper seventh of their class in scholarshipg those of the senior class must stand in the upper fourth. Members of the society are awarded a gold pin, a membership card, and a certificate of membership. Top Row, Left to Right: Olson, Hoskins, Steubing, Harding, Oliver, Delaney, Brazzale.

At Christmas time the group collaborated with the Glee Club to produce a Christmas play adapted by Clarissa Hill from Henry Van Dykes short story, The Other Wise Man. In March a dress rehearsal of a one-act play was presented before the student body in preparation for the Re- gional Drama Festival ar Woodbury. In the spring the entire club presented three one-act plays for the public. A group of plays was also shown for the enjoyment of the grammar schools in the area.

The Civics Club was originated in 1942 by the stu- dents of the Housatonic Valley Regional High School for the purpose of increasing interest in current events. Since that time the purpose of the club has changed and the constitution has been revised. Since current events are studied in all social studies classes, the Civics Club now has at its purpose to contribute to the welfare of the community and school by practicing good citizen- ship. In accordance with this principle, the club has spon- CLEMENTINE CECCHINATO CYNTHIA BRAZZALE MRS. SCRIBER sored different projects. To spread better understand- ing among the peoples of the World, the members formed a little United Nations of correspondence.

THE FOOTBALL SEASON Regional opened its 1951 season with a seven-game winning streak to maintain. The squad, led by co-cap- tains Bill Dufour and Rebel Grossman, consisted of only five lettermenz Bob Egan, Fred Lawrenz, Pat Fallon, Dufour, and Grossman. Regional journeyed down to the coast to meet Guil- ford in the opener. The Gold and Blue turned on its scoring power to rout the opponents to the tune of 50-13. The second game found Marlboro Central of Marl- boro, New York, at Regional. Precision passing by sophomore Don Piretti and brilliant catches of those passes by Dufour crushed the New Yorkers. Dufour scored four times as Regional rolled up a 44-12 victory. The third victim of the onslaught was Millbrook, New York. The outstanding offense of the Reggies baffled the Millbrook squad. The final count was 26-6. Bethel High followed on the schedule. Regional, sparked by the fine defensive play of Egan, Grossman, and Lawrenz, won by a slim 28-12 margin. With an eleven-game winning streak over two sea- sons, the Reggies invaded the Home of the Bushmen at Pine Bush, New York. The Bushmen cut loose and pounded out a 36-19 win. Reb Grossman led the Regional attack with two touchdowns. A strong squad from New Milford played Regional in the next encounter. The Reggies' staunch defense withstood numerous New Milford threats. A Dufour- to-Lawrenz aerial defeated the Green Wave in the final minute by the score of 28-20. In the final encounter Roeliff-Jansen of Hillsdale, New York, provided the competition. An airtight de- fense, combined with the fine running of Dale Prindle, were the outstanding factors in the victory, 44-14. Regional finished another fine season with six vic- tories and one defeat. Dale Prindle was elected captain of the 1952 squad. INDIVIDUAL SCORING RECORD Touchdown: Exim Point!

The competition was keen, and Regional, playing as a Class M school, failed to meet the demands of encountering larger schools. Simsbury avenged a previous year's defeat by a thrilling 42-40 victory. A closing drive by the Gold and Blue failed to net the necessary points, and a fine well-rounded attack by Simsbury proved too much for a fighting Regional squad. The second encounter, however, proved to be more inspiring. Bill Tobin's fine re- bounding paced Regional to a 48-58 victory over a capable Millbrook five. Terryville, a former league foe, was completely outclassed by Regional, 47-32, in the Housatonic gym. A dexterous attack, featured by Grossman's stellar defensive work, contributed greatly toward the victory. Thomaston, the traditional rival, tripped Regional in the next clash, 40-39. A basket by the Golden Bears in the final ten seconds completely crushed Regionals hopes for a victory. A staunch Pittsfield Club routed the Gold and Blue in the next contest, 51-37. A second half rally failed to compensate for a poor start. Two games on consecutive days saw Regional break even. The first, a defeat, carne at the hands of Roosevelt by a 47-54 count. A closing rally by Roosevelt spelled down for the Gold and Blue. On the following night Regional engaged Cardinal Farley of Rhineclilf. Regional, paced by Fred Gobillot and Bill Tobin, routed the Empire Staters, 58-57. Two away games at Terryville and Red Hook proved disastrous to Regional's hopes. Terryville overwhelmed Regional, 46-51, and Red Hook followed suit, 51-39. Again Regional played on two successive nights. Stockbridge fell victim to Regional by a 41-40 tally. Two foul shots by Bill Tobin after regulation time, plus Pete Kenny's fine play throughout, contributed greatly to the victory. Traveling to Cardinal Farley on the next night, Regional fell behind at the outset of the game and failed to catch up in the second half. Regional traveled to Stockbridge for a strong 52-45 victory. This proved to be the last win of the season. Playing a hard game, the Gold and Blue overcame a small lead by a high-scoring second half. Regional then lost in succession to Thomaston, Pine Plains, Arlington, Roosevelt, and again to Arlington. Pine Plains was defeated in a forfeited game. Many of these contests proved to be hard-fought, especially the second Pine Plains affair, the Roosevelt game, and the final game at Arlington. In these, outstanding performances were turned in by Kenny, Tobin, Gobillot, and Dufour. INDIVIDUAL SCORING N ame F.G. F. Pts.

In conclusion, we should like to reveal some in- teresting statistics that have been compiled from a recent survey made by one of the graduates of 1952. Final figures show that the annual average income of each graduate runs into four figures, 327533- ninety members of the class are married, with the other two still engaged, the class of 1952 is responsible for an increase in the present school population amounting to 145 children, including three sets of twins and the first set of quintuplets born south of the border. Dr. Stoddard's Bureau of Psychology Research shows as a result of careful testing that the average IQ of the above progeny is 70.3, two points above that of their parents. Thanks to the Class of 1952, Dr. Stoddard has announced, the chances of Regional's developing a genius are still dim. -JOAN VAILL AND LAWRENCE MCCABE. ji' pr' ' '4 NA I IUNXI SHI ,IUNPINU QQHANPIUNSHIPS SALISBURY CONN.

Barnard 85 TO YOUTH Oh, rest a moment, joyful, sparkling youth, Exchange that laughter for a serious thought, For in this troubled world of greed and war, Devotion, love, and laughter all are sought. Turn not your face away in hopelessness, For you must be courageous, brave and strong To carry on in love and constant faith, And in your heart be ready with a song. It is not easy, yet we have a guide Which shadows all the toughest roads we trod, An inspiration to endure our toils And lift our minds and hearts toward light and God. Now look to it, and see ourselves outlined In strength, endurance, beauty, proudly shown, And so to youth, the White Oak stretches out And gives to us a message of its own. In contemplative quietness it rests, While striking deep its roots in massive form For nourishment, for beauty, and for health, And strength to stand against a coming storm. This loyal oak is quiet rugged strength In humbleness, enfolding light and truth, A challenge to mankind to follow God- Its life and sign, a light to guide all youth. These youthful years, the ground, where roots grow deep And minds inspired to search for truth and light, To gather wisdom, storing strength within Endurance, solid faith to face the night. With serious thought and striving for the best, May we attain a great and lasting power To live in wind and hail and light and dark And stand erect, an everlasting tower. -NANCY HART '52, 86 ?1'02f-0v4-72-01'-0N0 0'40N0K04'0N04'0'w01 THE CANAAN NATIONAL BANK -,n.gj,Hr7j4...- CANAAN, CONNECTICUT MEINIBER FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPOR T ON C omplimentf Of KENT INSURANCE AGENCY G.
