MOMENTS TO REMEMBER As pea-green freshmen, we were divided be- tween the familiar junior high school and the mysti- fying senior high. Larry Stanczyk was elected from our class as treasurer to Student Council, while we were also well represented by Tom Powhida and Connie Southard. United for the first time as Sophomores, we had a very successful year beginning again with Student Council elections. This year Roberta Cavanaugh was elected Secretary. Class elections soon follow- ed. Tom Kirkpatrick, Patti Jo Marchio, Pat Malan, and Chuck Caputo were chosen to lead us through the forthcoming year. The Soph Hop, our biggest thrill, proved to be one of the best ever. From 8 until 12, a huge crowd danced to the music of Steve Anthony. The gym was decorated carrying out the theme of Harvest Moon. Sophomores Larry Stanczyk and Judy Rhodes were selected as King and Queen. Larry was crowned by Pres. Tom Kirkpatrick and Judy was presented with a bouquet of roses by Vice-Pres. Patti Marchio. We participated in many clubs such as dramat- ics which put on a play with Sophs Leah Gibson and Harrison Winne playing the lead roles. We were inrtoduced to Shakespeare by Mr. Gross and Mr. Champlin. In biology class, dis- section proved to be the downfall of the weaker ones, but still many sophomore names were to be seen on the honor roll. In sports, Pat Malan matched the J.V. basket ball scoring record of 23 points twice. John Passi- neau in high jumping and Larry Stanczyk in the hurdles, began to show promise. All in all, our sophomore year was great fun and the Sophs showe'd outstanding ability all around. Last year, our junior year, was fun for almost everyone. Starting in the rubble of our new school, under construction, was a good beginning for there was never a dull moment. When activities finally got under way and some of the dust settled, Laura Marshall was elected president of our class. Sup- porting her were Jeanette Luciano. Pat Malan, and Chuck Caputo. With the big event of the year, the Junior Prom, in view, we held a Penny a Pound Dance, something new in Hudson Falls Central High School. We re- treated to the Cafetorium on Clark Street for this, where it was a tremendous success. At this time, we, of the Class of 1957, wish to thank all plump girls who attended for adding to our treasury. Finally, April, and the Prom arrived. Remember all the fun we had trying to make roses? We were all delighted to find that Laura, our hard working and popular president, had the double honor of being Prom Queen with Tim Turner as King. As the year drew to a close, our school, now completed, was pointed out as a feature landmark in Hudson Falls. We are proud to say our class was also point- ed out as one of the most accomplished in the school s history. We found our Senior year beginning minus many of our old friends and classmates. The first item on the agenda was Student Council Elections. Tom Powhida was elected president, because of his outstanding campaigning, which included his vigorous handshaking. A new system, that of nomi- nating conventions, was used in class elections for the first time. As a result of this system Roberta Cavanaugh was elected President, Jeannette Luci- ano vice-president; Mary Digamus, secretary; and Connie Southard, treasurer. Page 17
