v TO CAP AMO Volume Thirt Seven HUDSON FALLS, NEW YORK HUDSON FALLS HIGH SCHOOL Awesome little Frosh we were in '49, when we first entered senior high. Joined by the junior high Kids in '50, we came to realize our own strength. Social functions captured the limelight in the junior year. But, in our last year, as we tried to straighten out the confusion of becoming educated, we DID remember to do a bit of studying. During these four years From Freshman Dink to Cap and Gown, each class we attended, every book we read, each activity in which we participated, and - most important of all-every teacher we knew, helped to make us better individuals. All these have we recorded in the following pages of our ‘53 HERMES as never-to-be- forgotten moments in our advancement from adolescents to adults. 3 orevuor j Miss Mae M. Dolan ot edi Lea tion ln gratitude to our capable yearbook advisor and understanding English teacher, MissMaeM. Dolan, we, the Class of 1953, dedicate our HERMES. FROM FRESH- MAN DINK TO CAP AND GOWN, we ghosts haunted her patience daily. Whenwe leave these halls, her ghosts willgo with us—for, you see we garrulous students ARE her ghosts. More important though, remembranceof her friendly way and parliamentary procedure will go with us. • 3 Our •Superintendent Superintendent Dana M. King summarizes centrali- zation as follows: The formation of a Central School District, long an ambition of the Hudson Falls Board of Education and school administrators, was voted by a 5 to 1 ratio on November 14, 1952. This wasaccomplished by the whole-hearted cooperation of the members of the Board of Education, the faculty, the clergy, civic, fraternal, and industrial leaders of the com- munity, and the many interested friends of the Hudson Falls schools. With centralization will come an improved edu- cational program for the boys and girls of this area. Centralization will make possible: (1) greater ef- ficiency, due to a larger unit of administration; (2) long-term planning for a definite area; (3) coordi- nated transportation; (4) increased state aid for operation of the school program; (5) additional state aid in the form of a building quota to help finance a building program. The new Central School Board, elected on December 5, 1952, will formally take over the operation of the schools on July 1, 1953. During the interim period the new board is devoting its major efforts to the planning of a building program for the new district. Our Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Dana M. King, and his secretary, Mrs. Dorothy Valley, confer over an important centralization message. We thank you sincerely, Mr. King, for your ceaseless efforts in bringing our distant dreams to a reality. SITTING, LEFT TO RIGHT: Ezra R. Dickinson, Vice-President; L. Ray Lewis, President; Dana M.

Dearlove, introduced the modern report card, suggested by a Report Card Study Committee. Said that selfsame Dink at the end of the term, I guess their ol' report cards aren't so bad after all. I got all S'sl Because of the understanding spirit of Mr. Dearlove and his obliging secretary. Miss Thelma Hastings, Dinks and seniors alike maintained a fond attitude towards H.F.H.S I'm going to the guidance office to plan my program, was another remark often heard from the Dinks. Likewise, we seniors turned to our counselors. Miss Frances Wood and Mr. J. Ber- nard Labourr, to seek advice in choosing a col- lege or other career. We appreciated the excel- lence of our guidance directors who could always be relied upon to provide a beneficial solution for even our slightest, everyday difficulties.

As one might guess, we never knew exactly what was going to happen from one minute to the next. The shrill sound of the hall bell, however, told us of each approaching class. The mad rush, all the homework, and the new P.A. system confused us too; but, when our confusion turned into rage, we banged our sticky locker doors. The most arousing experience was our participation in Student Council elections. Will the persons we vote for be elected? Who really are the best men? Will Maxwell Patrick Hogan, better known to us as Pat, get the office of Treasurer? These were our questions, and — oh, yes — Pat did win.. .by a landslide. The social highlight of this year was our Freshman dance, the Spring Swing, with Ann Digamus and Lester LaPan as the royalty. Before we caught our breath, we Freshmen were gay young Sophomores. When we returned to school in our sophomore year, we feltthatnow we really belonged—we weie no longer bewildered little Frosh. This was the year that we were first united, under one roof, as the Class of 1953. We were old hands with stuck locker doors, piles of homework, and trampled-on feet. Throwing our cares over our shoulders, we stuffed our pockets with gooey' gum and rubber band-paper clip slingshots, aiming to make this year the happiest and gayest of all. It was the happiest when Pat Hogan won his second successive office in Student Council. It was the gayest when we danced at our Soph Hop. We worked and made our dance memorable with the aid of our able class leaders: Leon Dunn, Marion Wright, Robert Lewis, and Carolyn Herting. This year we also captured our first basketball and baseball Northern Con- ference titles in ten years. Our spirits were sometimes da m p e n e d by Julius Caesar and plane geometry, but this didn't prevent us from driving our teachers mad (once inawhile-no-all the ti me). Our sophomore year passed qui ck- ly, and, before we knew it, we were jolly Juniors. 27 Time elapsed, and soon we were half way through the third year of our high school stay. As the month of March ebbed into April, we busily prepared for our Junior Prom. We made the event a big success. Our President Joan Bruce found a suitable orchestra, Gary Stevens; Edward LaPoint helped us to choose an appropriate theme; Robert Lewis wrote the proper in- vitations; and Leon Dunn juggled our finances to make ends meet. Our decorators made the endless scotch tape and colored crepe paper cooperate, found spring flowers, and attempted to stay on the ladder. Another most cherished event of the junior year was re- ceiving our class rings with the Hermes insignia. When we weaved in and out the rows on Moving-Up Day singing, we realized that next year we would be the grand old Seniors, not the jolly Juniors. We worked, studied, and enjoyed the last of our school days. In the role of upperclassmen, we made our HERMES an enduring book of memories, our GREEN ECHO an out- standing achievement, our club projects examples for under- classmen, and our class trip a never-to-be-forgotten occasion. To raise money for this trip, we treked trom door to door. Would you like to buy some jello for the benefit of the senior trip? It is very inexpensive and an excellent diet dessert. Using the one-foot-in-the-door method, we likewise sold Christmas cards and wrapping paper to raise money. This year in sports, we captured the football co-championship with Whitehall. Again we acclaimed Pat Hogan, our Student Council officer------this time— President. For the second time, Hudson Falls High School was the site for the All-State concert. Class Day.. .Commencement.. Senior Ball... .planned by our class officers Leon Dunn, Donald R unk I e , Bruce Inglee, Ann Digamus, and by our competent advisor, Mrs. Norton, brought to a close our four successful happy years in Hudson Falls High School From Freshman Dink to Cap and Gown. 28 Shine on, Harvest Moonl Shine beamingly onus, harvest moon,as we glide along amidst a myriad of autumn hues.

During the Christmas of 1951, we enacted an old Christmas favorite, Why The Chimes Rang. Upon entering our senior year, we embarked on a more chal- lenging play, Mooncalf Mug- ford.

Laboriset ludi causa (for work and for play) are the main objectives of our comparatively new Latin Clubs. By reading Latin books and participat- ing in Latin quizzes and games, we became acquainted with the history and customs of the early Romans. This year our clubs' thirty-eight members, under the supervision of Miss Mildred Baker, Latin teacher, enjoyed many social successes including a parents' tea and a dance. Thus, as our Latin Club acted out its busy schedule, we experienced work and play together. OUR LATIN I CLUB: SITTING, LEFT TO RIGHT: Miss Mildred Baker, Advisor; M. LaBarge, Secretary; J.

Miss Helen Mayo, we acquired a knowledge and appreciation of Hispanic life. Only through such a well-organized Spanish Club did we learn so much about Spanish countries without actually visiting them. Horhay Hagen takes another siesta during PTA skit. If we had gone to France while wearing our Freshman dinks, we would not have appreciated the trip, but now, with three years of experience in French, we understand both the language and the people. Just as Miss Helen Mayo made us think of France as our second home, we, in turn, hope to make America the second home for our French guest for the summer. Miss Yvonne Menauge.

Northern Conference Co-Champions with Whitehall in '52—last of our four years support- ing the gridirons—we racked up four out of five conference wins, tying the fifth. Under the trusty helms of our coaches, Elmer Heidorf and Anthony Luciano, we scored 132 points to the opposition's 27. Our Wave highlighted the season by swamp- ing the highly touted powerhouse from Glens Falls, 22-0. The main factors in victory were our undying spirit and precision teamwork. In the crucial game of the season, we tied Whitehall 14-14. We followed this with a 20-7 victory over Granville. After having scored three touchdowns against S.M.A. in our first four plays from the line of scrimmage, we coasted to a 49-0 victory. In the final game of the season, our eleven upset victory-minded Fort Edward, 27-7, thus clinch- ing the co-championship. 62 The old pigskin gets a final pat before the last game by our own senior co-captains: Bruce Inglee, Don Runkle, Leon Dunn, and Harry Ward.

Although we started the 1952-53 basketball season very poorly, losing many more games than we won, our Green Wave got rolling towards the end and pulled two major upsets over Glens Falls, the con- ference champs, and Fort Edward, whom we knocked out of contention for the crown. The final score sheet read: conference play, four wins over—Granville (60-40), Fort Edward (69-46), Glens Falls (45-42), Granville (58-50); six losses to Whitehall (43-60), Fort Edward (41-49), St. Mary's (50-65), Glens Falls (42-75), Whitehall (68-73, St. Mary's (42-68); and in non- conference play, two wins, four losses, for an overall 6-10 record for the season. High point of the season was Dor Runkle's individual scoring mark of 31 points against Fort Edward, wiping out Leon Dunn's previous record of 29 points. Runkle was also high scorer in the conference with 170 points for ten games and a total of 274 for the season. Such play placed Runkle and Dunn on the first and second All-Con- ference teams respectively. Despite shining individual efforts, the inconsistent play of the team placed them in fourth place in the conference standing along with St. Mary's Academy.

Track season — 19521 Again our team had a successful year by defeat- ing all our opponents in the dual meets, taking second in the county meet, third at the Saratoga Invitational, and fourth at the sectionals. The high- light of the year was the establishment of three new school records by: George Anderson —doing 21.9 seconds in the 180 yard hurdles; Don Campbell — hitting 45 feet 4 inches in the shot put; Mike Simione, Bruce Inglee, Dick LaFountain and Chuck Greeno — breezing to a 1 minute 36 second relay in the Saratoga Invitational. Ournetmen, led by Don Runkle and Bill Cronin, finished the season with a 1-4 record. Their lone win was against South High; losses came from G lens Falls, Hartford, Schuylervilie, and South High. Runkle and Cronin represented the team in the sectionals at Schenectady, where Runkle went to the semi-finals before being beaten. Shirley and Gail stand ready.

This program, in its first year of ex- istence, proved to be very popular. Each of our gym periods was divided into teams, which battled for the right to re- present their gym period in the playoffs. Period seven managed to reach all three finals and won two of them. High scorer for the overall tournament was Ron Smith, a seventh period lad who collected 77 points in six games. Runners-up were the period one team captained by Bob Hogan and the period three team led by Pete Blinn. BobConnelly goes in for two on a clear shot winning the game 29-27. In this '53 HERMES, we have recorded our four years in Hudson Falls High School — our daysas carefree Freshmen when life wasal I a game, ourdaysas men-about-school Sophomores when we had our hand in everything, our days as conscientious Juniors when we worried about Proms and studies alike, and our last days — our Senior year — when we wrestled with Regents, career planning, and a class trip. But these are past. Now we look to our varied futures — the armed forces, college, trade school, business, and marriage. As we embark on these sundry vocations, we look back at our friends, the underclassmen, and hope that they will have as funfilled and memorablean experience as we had on our journey FROM FRESHMAN DINK TO CAP AND GOWN. 72 . . . have helped make it possible forus to record in HERMES, our memories and experiences during the four years From Freshman Dink to Cap and Gown.
