Through her continued support, the Johnson City chapter of Future Homemakers of America has received national recognition. Her co-workers, the faculty, affectionately know her as Stevie , appreciate her keen sense of humor, and welcome her good company on all occasions. In recognition of her loyal service to Johnson City High School, we respectfully dedicate the 1951 Wildcat to Miss Lida Stephenson. Z THEME - FOOD FOR THOUGHT Our menu offers variety in color and ingredients. It is offered daily by the administration and faculty to the student body, repre- sented by well-done seniors, medium-rare juniors, and raw sopho- mores. The appetite of the student determines the bulk of the menu consumed. As in a meal, the high school menu, if chosen wisely, and if well-digested, will prove to thoroughly nourish the individual student. The yearbook staff presents the 1951 WILDCAT!

Johnson City residents have placed the guidance of our school system in capable hands. The regard toward our schools, the admiration of s u r r o u nd i n g communities for our scholastic and extra-curricular activities, and the e ffi c ie nc y dis- played in classrooms--all testify fav- orably to our supe rintende nt of schools and our Board of Education. Left: Mr. Howard B. Eccleston, Supe rintendent of the Johnson City School System. Below: left to right are Board of Education members, Mr. William Prit- chard, president, Mr. Earl Stark, Mr. Arthur Coddington, Mr. Walter Riale, and Mr. Paul Waltz. PROPRIETORS A restaurant cannot exist without capable proprietors and supervisors. Similarly, a school finds its manage- ment in its administration and faculty. The schoo1's program, like a restaur- ant's bill of fare, must be attractively presented, nutritive in value, and must leave a lasting benefit to those se rved. This job falls to our principal, vice-principal, guidance counselors, and faculty. In Johnson City High School the job is capably filled by all concerned. At right is Mr. Lyle Young, princ- ipal of Johnson City High School. K L '14 fx At left is Mrs. Matilda Brown, vice-principal, and senior guidance counselor. .X fl These pictures portray APPETIZER -al e 3 me UOCWC Sat Si tl 0 Xu 6 gOt h e mean t Shoul Clw 15 r c-:YS 3 we H niffon s09hO pe 1 he ap a oh ne hglt week duceg, h O rams TWV 1Y5t mifo uc Y the e kewl e 5ch0mS 59 Oi ho0 D melf a gum S ov 1665 of pi mxqitingli io ow 6 ach Wu N-I 1 It .

Rivalry between classes and schools is keen, and the teams produced at J.C. for competition in all sports are always superior. This fact reflects a sound athletic background for boys and girls alike in their gym classes. We are proud of our athletics. Their record has been outstanding. Yi SOCIAL STUDIES Miss Ethel Herbert, head of the Social Studies department and Senior advisor, Mr. b Ro ert Teuchtler and Miss Naomi Hepburn, Social Studies teachers, plan to mix a dash of exams to their regular class menus. S so 1' I' - - 'i m Current events combined with world backgrounds and served to all high school students introduces the social studies department.

LIBRARY As new dishes encour- age appetites so new books stimulate the de- sire to learn. The im- portance of an efficient library is not to be under- e stimated on the high school menu. The help of the librarians and in- numerable refe re nce sources when the student has work, the endless se lec tion of late st popular magazines when the student has leisure timeg all contribute to the easy digestion of school work. At left are Miss Ruth Osgood, head librarian, f s is and Mrs. Jane Schwarz, a s si stant, selecting new DRIVING ,-aff I, A, Q books fo r display. The popularity of Driver Train- ing is only surpassed by its import- ance. Since a large percentage of our adult population drives a car, it is most practical for students to learn the common sense of good driving. Safety rules, local and state laws, and tests of perception are offered along with actual driver training. The course is taught by Mr. William Carey who is pictured on page 22. A candid picture taken through a window of the training car shows left to right, Betty Jenkins, Marie Bush, and Magdelene McCuskie about to embark on a thrilling ride.

In doing so they improve their understanding of artand also contribute much to school activities in the num- erous displays and posters that occasionally decorate ww the corridors. Mechanical Drawing students receive a solid basis for drafting and other shop work which helps job potentialities after gradua- tion. LANGUAGES sf ef The saying goes The proof of the pud- ding is in the eating, and our language de- partment bears this out. Students learn to appreciate the knowledge of a foreign langu- age by the many correlations from the language to our own. Hur Above, Mrs. Mary Smith, French teacher, and head of the department, chats with Mrs. Janet Ainey and Mr. James McCabe, Latin teachers. MUSIC Attractively served in various forms, music is a prominent activity at Johnson City High School. Appreciation and understanding of good music is offered to all members of musical organizations Classes in fundamentals of music as well as group participation provide opportunity for learning. Various musi- cal organizations serve as colorful backgrounds to annual programs at graduation, holiday, and assembly get- togethers. Above are band members Dick Bohunicky, Dick Newton, Warren Powell, Charles Scott, and Robert Skelding.

Appreciation of literature, improvement of our own speech, and correct usage of the English language are the aims of the Englishdepartment. As every student is required to take English, this goal is a common one. A student's speech is molded by his courses in high school, and a rich program is offered by which he can benefit. Our understanding of literature influences our future tastes in this art. Poise and confidence gained through drama classes make .us more responsible citizens. Below, Mrs. Alice Tashjian, Maroon advisor, hears all about what's cooking from Miss Juan Doerner, dramatics teacher, for use in the next issue of the school paper. 4 .. A , ,WM Miss Priscilla Morton and Mrs. Gertrude Rose, English teachers, discuss a tested recipe for their day's classes. Among tasty tid-bits at our English Cafeteria, students choose such courses as Journalism, Modern Literature, Creative Writing, Speech, Dramatics and others. This excellent fare proves the high caliber of our English Department. Mary Sypnewski, Laura Nawojczyk, and Mary Orzel diligently searching for news features in a local paper for use in their Journalism class. INDUSTRIAL ARTS The shop menu served to Indus- trial Arts students offers a well- balanced program. Shops for print- ing, metal work and wood work keep students busy, and the projects periodically on display from these courses show concentrated effort of both teacher and student.

The work of getting out the paper includes the issuing of assignments, scurrying to collect material and write the copy before the inevitable deadlines, struggling over headlines, typing, setting up the dummy, proofreading, printing, and distribution. At the same time the advertising staff is busy soliciting ads from local merchants. Between ninety-five and one hundred percent of the copies printed are sold, proving that the paper is highly enjoyed and appreciated by faculty and students alike.

STUDENT COUNCIL, miie Student Council officers shown above are, left to right, Jeanne Koplik, president, David Stark, vice-president, and Mary Hearon, secretary. During the year, the council has been col- lecting pennies to send boxes to the Pradeau family of France. The members also act as guides at Open House and decorate the school Christmas tree. Every Memorial Day, an out- door assembly is plan- ned by the Council, and geranium plants are presented to the Ameri- can Legion. All honor students are feted at the Honor Tea annually. Along with the other Triple Cities Councils, Johnson City wrote 68 letters to various stud- ent councils throughout the state in hopes for making a New York State Association of Student Councils. The Student Coun- cil could easily be called the spice of life at Johnson City High School, giving the students achance to participate in the administration of the school and serving as an active legislature for school improve- ments. Under the direction of Jeanne Kop lic , President, and Miss Margaret Lallier, faculty ad- visor, the c ou nc il carries on a great many activities. Sponsoring school dances and sending active delegates to various council con- ferences begin the fall council activities. Council members Robert Mitchell, Mary Hearon, and Gene Ketchum pa an overseas relief box. W! .. ,A 1'-sq... K .

' TOAST .OF THE TOWN That's the undefeated, conference winning J.C. Football Team. Our chefs of the gridiron have dished up, for the third straight year,an unparalleled champion- ship. Because of the untiring efforts of Coach Ed Butkus and assistants Joe Ciesielski, Terry McHugh, and Joe Cordts, plus the co-operation and team spirit of the football squad, J.C. was able to reach the pinnacle of success with their remarkable three-year record of being unde- feated.
