Squawk! We aren't old enough to do anything. We're just little papooses riding on the backs of our elders in the high school tribe at Tepee Center. Our elder sister, the juniors, gave us a tribal dance, they were very sollcltous of us. We repaid them. All through our early life we were babled and watched over. As soon as we became old enough to walk in our own moccaslns, we showed the warriors we were an up and coming group. We showed adroltness in our shooting of the bow and ar- row, learnlng the animal and bird calls, and weaving. To obtain wampum we held a success- ful sweater raffle. One of our sachems, Miss Yvette Mercier, wove the sweater on a new- fangled loom, --two long needles. Having eyes to see, we began to look over our trlbe,and be- came interested in several activities, such as athletics and music. Soon we were really growing into a strong and brave group. We had learned the customs and now were beginning to put them into practice. Many a day we were allowed to be compan- ions of the Full Fledged braves Qsenlorsj on hxmtlng and fishing trips and gardening and cook- ing exploits. We gave our little brothers and sisters a dance and sold tickets to the Kiwanis Show. In the spring we held the annual festival Uunlor Proml, which proved successful. To show our dramatic ability we put on the play, You'll Die Laughing. Having proved our adeptness ln extra-curricular activities, scholastic achievements, so- cial abilities, and charitable giving of our wampum, we were given the key to become the war- riors and maidens of the tribe. Now we could roll the tom-toms, yell our war cries, and sling our tomahawks. We sold ice cream at the different tribal pow-wows. We had the hon- or of holding the annual Christmas Festival. The play David Copperfield was held, the cast dolllng up in war paint. All our hnmts, wars and festivals were successful and lots of fun. Now as we go out to larger expeditions may we cherish the background we have had at Tepee Center and remember our happiness during our years there. 8 CHARLOTTE ALLEN It hurteth not the tongue to give faire words.

To help them all over thin ice this class chose Miss Eloise Shaul, Miss Gladys Lodge, and Miss Dorothy Walter, who gave helpful advice. Socially and scholastlcally this group did their part. There was, of course, the wonderful dance the Jtmlors gave them, and, not to be outdone, the one the Frosh gave in return. Several of the students on the honor roll were in this class They also kept the peace pipe lighted by helping out in all fields.

That evening the Senior Class presented Da vid Copperfield. Although there were 13 in the cast, this wasn't an mmlucky night at all. Everyone enjoyed the dramatization of Dickens' favorite novel. The antics of Mr. Dick and Mr. Micawber furnished plenty of amusement. The audience could not help but sympathize with David when the disagreeable Edward Murdstone and hie egotistical sister, Jane, came to live at Blunderstone. Pegotty, Aunty Betsy, and Agnes provided true friends for the orphaned boy.

The activities of the play revolved about the attempts of johnny to edit a school newspaper. As an assistant, Miss Willard appointed Susan Blake and from this point on, misunder standings were numerous and commonplace. Johnny leaned heavily on his friend Spud for support but the distractions offered by Susan, Betsy and Lucybelle only added to the delight of the audience. Splendid stage support was provided by the Mr. and Mrs. Clover and the remaining members of the cast who added not only to their own prestige but to that of the main characters. The play itself was studded with clever lines and their effect was heightened by the skillful presentation of the en tire group.

The price has been lowered, a new style of printing used, and more and better pictures have been provided. The Staff sincerely hopes that these improvements will be appreciated and that next year's book may even surpass that of 1947. , 95 . fl '4 QV! , I M . N, Xfgj! -Z 'gil lv ig! 4 Q3 3 an 44 HUUH UIHISTLE STHFF The Noon Whistle Staff has worked hard this year to improve its publication. In October, five delegates attended the Empire State School Press Association convention in Syracuse. Besides having a good time meeting young journalists from all over the state, our students received many ideas to improve their own publication. This staff was also very pleased to discover that the Noon Whistle of Low- ville Academy is one of a very few printed newspapers in New York State. A change was made this year increasing the size of the paper slightly by using three columns instead of two for the page make-up. This has worked out very well and gives the paper much more of a newspaper look. After two and a half years of bringing to the students their latest news, the Noon Whistle has won for itself a permanent place in school life at Lowville Academy. 45 5 swnfm council ,V For the past year the Student Council has done its level best to perform its duties of student government satisfactorily But before much could be done, it had to have leaders.

A very efficient cafeteria committee, head- ed by Ruth Judson was organized to maintain order in the cafeteria. Roy Sauter headed the ser- vice committee, whose duty it was to keep the schoo1's halls, lavatories, and rooms clean and respectable. To keep themselves financially fit, the Council members sold ice cream every Fri day afternoon. It proved to be a profitable project. In every way the Student Council has endeavored during this year to make Lowville Academy a better school. 46 What better goal can a high school student have than to be on the National Honor Society? At the end of each year 5 per cent of the Junior Class is elected and 10 per cent of the Senior Class These are elected on Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service. It is certamly an honor to strive toward this end. Vice-President, and Charlotte Allen - Secretary Treasurer.

Four boys entered the locals. Roy Sauter, the winner there, represented the Lowville Chapter in the County Contest where he won second prize. All in all the Lowville F. F. A. has had a very prosperous and exciting year. 49 LE UERCLE FHHHUHIS Membership in Le Cercle Francais is nopen to any student who has taken at least two years of French, or any adult who is interested and speaks the language. The members were active this year. Packages of clothing and food were sent to a young Parisian girl whose father had died in a concentration camp. Besides this, they corresponded with French school children of their age. The meetings, which were conducted entirely in French, were held twice a month, either at school or at a member' s home. After the business meeting, French songs were sung, French games were played, and French records were heard. The members of Le Cercle Francais believe they have completed a very successful year. The following officers were elected at the first meet- ing: President, james Phalong Vice-President, Peggy Ko- taryg Se,cretary, Clara Fear. 50 ,IX HUUH HOUR G.H.H The Noon-Hour G. A.

After hockey was completed, the girls turned to bowling and basketball. Five noon-hour bowl- ing teams were organized - the Alley Amateurs, Strike Queens, Bowlers, Get on the Ball and the Gutter Gals. Basketball also flourished with six teams - The Flicker Flash- backs, Basket Queens, Watson Sandfl1ckers, Castorland Cogers, Wildcats and the Black Angels. Volleyball and softball teams were also organized with tournaments played. There was much enthusiasm shown by all toward these tournaments which created keen com- petition. 51 HHEH SCHUUL G.H.H.

With the loss of the whole backfield and part of the line, Connie' made a new team out of inexperienced but capable players. The team was a very light one as football teams go and played against ones far out of its class. The group improved as the season went on, however, and'later began to run close competition with some of its competitors. The season ended with one victory and five losses.
