CLASS We entered the halls of knowledge as rather green Freshmen, and perfect foil for the Seniors’ initiation. Elected to guide the Class of ’54 were Jack Estabrook, President; Julie Hopkins, Vice-President; Jim Fowler, Secretary; and Bob Koonce, Treasurer. The “Sno-Ball” was our first dance. As Sophomores, we were caught up in the social whirl, but found time to knock on doors and sell stationery to aid class finances. We put on the “Pilgrims’ Prom” and elected Jerry Irish, President; Ann McCormick, Vice-President; Bob Erb, Secretary; and Ray Falso, Treasurer. Excited that we were now upperclassmen, we chose Paul Bucklin, President; Gretchen Koehring, Vice-President; Jerry Irish, Secretary; and Ray Falso, Treasurer—again! A highlight of the year was the selection of Gretchen Koehring, Katie Norman, Jerry Irish and Paul Bucklin as candi- FAYETTEVILLE dates for Student Council President. Paul won after a spirited campaign during which many new ideas were brought forth by all sides. The “Junior Prom”, presented with the grandeur of the Coronation, brought the year to an end. And So To Sleep Informal Party Caucus Innocence of Youth SENIORS The past year has been one of getting acquainted, setting goals, making history, and starting traditions. Setting the pace for the rest of FMHS were the guiding lights of the seniors, ably led by Carroll Blake, president; John Smith, vice-president; Julie Hopkins, secretary; and Ray Falso, treasurer. The ambitious upperclassmen began their money-making schemes with the sale of magazines followed by the production of student directories. (The profits of the directories went to the yearbook staff for this bigger and better yearbook.) After much delay, deliberating, discussing and designing, freshmen initiation came off with a bang! After several weeks of recovery, however, the frosh were back on their seats (that is, feet) again. The seniors were in the limelight from time to time. Paul Bucklin and Bob Dudley are to be commended for their wonderful work on Student Council. Ann McCormick and Andy Graham were celebrities for having been to Europe as exchange students last summer. Siebren Cnossen, our foreign student, will always be remembered for his assemblies on Holland. Dick LaForte and Phil Moore were selected for the All-County Football teams; Carroll Blake, Fred Chase, and Jack Estabrook also received recognition. [10]

HISTORY We began as freshmen by choosing Lois Tuttle as president; Martha Louttit, vice-president; Florence Goodfellow, secretary, and Bob Dudley, treasurer. The seniors took us in hand, welcoming us with freshman initiation in the fall. In the spring, we held our successful first dance, “The Cotton Ball.” We elected Dick Lowenberg as our sophomore president; Alice Eaton, vice-president; Patricia Baker, secretary; and Bob Ryan, treasurer. After home basketball games, we sponsored record dances. In the spring, our dance, aptly named “The Spring Fling,” was lots of fun. For junior class officers, we again chose Dick Lowenberg, president, with an eye to the 22nd Amendment; Jack Bligh, vice-president; Annette Thisse, secretary, and Bob Dudley, treasurer. During Christmas vacation, we joyfully received our class rings. Something different in assemblies took place with our “White Elephant Auction.” The class had a riotous time on the week-end trip to Lake Placid in May. To finish the year, we sponsored the Junior Prom, “Undersea Fantasy,” honoring the seniors. MANLIUS Restoring the Art of Totem-Poles . . . Not a Creature Was Stirring Tilt! TOGETHER Also in the sports spotlight were Senior basketeers: Chuck Humpleby, Carroll Blake, Dick Lowenberg, Paul Bucklin, Bill Grabau, Bob Crolick, and Dick Holt. Sparking the varsity cheerleading squad were seniors Rindy Lindsley, Ann McCormick, Barb Wescott, Kayo Pring, and Alice Eaton. Amid the rushing around, getting the yearbook out on time, taking scholarship exams and College Boards, visiting various colleges and employ- ment advisors, the seniors managed to have fun together, too. There were surprise birthday parties, after-game parties, before-dance parties, New Year’s Eve parties .... everything but political parties. This, the class of 54’s last year, anticipated for so-oo long, and discovered to be so-oo short, was superbly climaxed by the grandest dance of the year, the Senior Ball. A vote of thanks from the seniors goes to Miss Allan, Mrs. Munroe, Miss Conklin, and Mrs. Rowland for keeping them on the straight and narrow throughout the year. Looking forward to moving-up day and graduation with mixed feelings, the seniors leave the future of FMHS to you, the upperclassmen to come, with the hope that we’ve made your high school days a little richer.
