Our future is just behind the door marked f'Graduation Dayw. Like the butterfly which goes through its several stages of development, we soon enter into our full maturity. We see a multitude of opportunities before us. ' Which way shall we go? The path we now take will likely determine our future unto death. lt is a sobering reflec- tion. There is no turning back. What we have learned in our 12 years of schooling must guide us in choosing between one realm of opportunity and another. We have a democratic country which we must help to maintain as democratic. If we have spirit and determination, this land of opportunity affords us many gateways through which we can pass to make our lives into what we want them to be. In 12 years we have been forging a key to America and the world. We are ready now to unlock the doors of oppor- tunity and behold life and the world in all its richness, variety, and meaning.

Matamoras High School I This is dear old M. H. S., the place where we have spent twelve years of our natural lives. We are, of coursel very glad to be graduated, but we shall always look back on our school days as the happiest time of our livesg t . Our beautiful school was built in 1924, and the first class was grad- uated in 1925. Since that time many improvements have been made. VVe are very proud of our splendid grounds and shrubbery. Rumors are flying about many new improvements for our school, such as the building of a separate gym somewhere in back of the school, also, building a grade school nearby, making this entire building a high school. Perhaps these ideas will never materialize, but ,we sincerely hope they will. Our younger brothers and sisters could benefit from these or other changes. But old or new, shining or dilapidated, three cheers for M. H. Sl Long may she dominate the educational scene of Pike County.

We Want to thank these teachers for all they have given and taught us upon which We had to build later, and hope they will be able to do the same wonderful work for others in the years to come.

For several years joe's interests were confined to study and sports, but of late a certain dulcetftoned lass seems to have mornopolized his time and heart. In baseball his long stretch on first base has made possible many put-outs ffor the team. joe has done a good bit of printing as a hobby- ' ' His nature has made himjtjgrrick to question and present an argument. As the class leader, this trait has preveinted anything from being put over on the class. joe's great Will- ingness to Work and uncom-plaining nature has been an inspiration to the class. As co-busif ness manager of the yeanbook and president of the class, he has showin his aibility to carry out responsibility and handle class problems. ., , , .

Jeannette is the dark, quiet, composed girl -of the senior class. K'job , as she is sometimes called, does not participate in a.nv sports, but she is al' ways, found rooting for the home team. She is very active in supporting the class fund. and she's always ready to give whatever aid is possible. Jeannette is also deeply interested in church Work.

Well, look what's coming down the hall, the Kicker' of the senior class, Ellen is very popular among her classmates and has a very pleasing personality. Ellen came to our class in our sophomore year from that big city called Lackawaxen. At any social activity one can see her min ling in the crowd. She proved to be one ofg the promising actresses of Matamoras with her part in Deacon Dubbsi' and the Mystery of Crazy Canyon Ranch . As editor-in-chief of the yearbook and fashion editor of the journal, Ellen has dis- played an active interest in journalism. She has also been active on the basket' ball court as left guard. You hear Ellen's alto voice skillfully leading the others, for she is a member of our glee club. After graduation Ellen plans to take up journalism as a career. v1cToR1A ANN COKELETTE Good deal Vfvkfe Class secretary, '46 47g journal staff, '47g glee club, '42f'47g basketball, '42-'47g cast of Deacon Dubbs g cast of Crazy Canyon Ranch g art club, '45g dance club, '16, '47. Vickie, the dark-haired, dark-eyed beauty of our class, is our efficient secretary and our foreigin ambassador to Milford. She was always glad to hear of a Miljord basket' ball game approaching, not only that it would be an opportunity to play as left forward, but she was intrigued by the passes of the captain of Milford's boys' team. Active in all class and school projects, Vickie ably played leading roles in the two class plays. Continually smiling, a giggle inter' spersed here and there, Vickie is ready for a chat with almost anyone, anytime. Vickie holds a diploma for diplomacy. If anyone has qualms about asking someone for something, Vickie is delegated the job, and, sure enough, magical results follow. Time and again Vickie has argued af bout her column Scuttle-Butt in the journal, and her right to print the choicest gossip fare to a hungry student body has been pracf tically unhindered- DONALD FORREST CUDDEBACK Oh gee' Dan Basketball, 3 yearsg member of journal- ism staE, '46, '47g manager of Deacon Dubbs g cast of the Mystery of Crazy Can- yon Ranchn, '46g dance club, 3 yearsg dance club president, '46 47. Blonde hair, blue eyes, and a big grin is how we can describe Don in few words. Don's personality seems to be winning to everyone, especially Pat. Don's personality is ,not the,only thing that is winningg so is his basketball playing- Don is a credit to our team and his scores have brought us many victories. He has made as high as 22 -points in one game. He can be seen throughout the halls with a pencil and a tablet in his hands asking all sorts of questions of everybody. Now, don't let the wrong idea creep into your headg he's doing it all lor our journal and in the school interest. 'fDon is the one and only farmer in our class, but that doesn't prevent him from coming down to see Pat or participate in school activities.

He loves to tinker around cars, and his big, black Buick can be seen in front of the school every day. KeIn's first and main interest concerns another member of our class. Elaine is the apple of his eye. Elaine and Ken are always to 'be seen riding around in Ken's 1932 Buick.

Here we have the mechanic and muscle man of the class. If there is any noise or disburbance, Eldo is right there with his. Now, wait a minute, and the roar immedi- ately subsides. Eldo was on the soccer team in '44, and he was a definite credit to it. Inseparable comrades are Eldo and his relic Ford. So much loving care seems to go into that inanimate object that one won- ders how long such a romance can last. Eldo can be seen atlthe baskeuball games watching with wrapt attention one of the cheerleaders and, incidentally, the basket- ball game. His ambition in life is to become a diesel engineer, After his graduation he plans to enter a diesel engineering school.

In the cast of 'Deacon Dub,bs , Andy proved his talent for acting in the role of Darius Dubbs. He was also in the play, 'lCrazy Canyon Ranch , as Wildfeyed Willie- He got many a laugh from deep down inside. Andy is a dangerous man when he is let loose in the lab, as his friends, who call him, the Mad Chemist , know. Andy will enter Penn State in September, Where he will major in chemistry. , CHARLES HELLER LUTZ Fiddlesticks ' 05 Soccer, '44g basketball, ,44g sports- men'stclub, '44-g player in Life Begins at Sixteen g stif of journalg dance club, '47. . Joe came, to- our town in 1944. He was in the class of '46 until he heard the call and enlisted in the U. -S. Navy. joe received his discharge in, july, 1946 'andreturned to school in September of that year. He proved to be a valuable man on the basketball court for M. H. S. in '45, Tall, dark, handsome and muscular, Joe is a shining example of the Wellfdressed civil- ian. Of course, this means that Joe has the usual amount of interest in .the glorified female., V , ' Joe finished his requiredkcourses in March, 1947.

' Though the winds may blow and howl, and the snow is flying and falling in 3ffoot layers, you are sure to find Rita patiently waiting for the doors of the high school to open. Rita came to us from Willianisport, Pa., in our sophomore year. She is an earnest worker, proved by her many sales of greeting cards and other miscellaneous articles. This girl is really a super-saleswoman. ln. further evidence, we offer her three years of employment with thc J. J. Newberry Co. on Saturdays. '4Rita Bee is not afraid to encounter memeographfng or typing which needs to be done for either the class or the principal's office.

Y 1 The one and only dashing redfheaded Irishman of the class is our friend Bill. His red hair, blue eyes, and charming personality seem to hold a magnetic attraction for the ladies. Bill has entered into the senior competition! for t-he female prizes among the' lower classmen. Bill,', as the hired 'man' in ':'Deacon Dubbsu, played a hilarious role with real gusto! At times Bill really displays a remarkable sense of humor. He is known as the B,T.O. of the class. He can be found at Moon's Sweet Shop at any hour of the day, giving the boys a hard time or learning new tricks from reading i'Batman. V Bill is always ready to do his share of work for the class- He has served as circuf lation manager of the journal this year and did his best to fill that office.

A thunderous roar and a cloud of dust. What is it? Buddy in that trusty model T. CVery often a 'kslick chick is with him, tool- Buddy hails from the metropolis of Mill Rift. He descended upon us in 1943. He wasthen and remained a welcome addition to our class. Mr. Pennell was the sole proprietor of the Matamoras-Mill Rift Toonerville trolley. Deacon Dubbs and Crazy Canyon Ranch proved Buddy to be a capable perf former on the stage. He assisted in making both plays a howling success. Buddy ' could always be seen at bas' ketball games rooting for the home team from the sidelines. Incidentally, Ray must have worn out a great many pair of shoes, because we heard he has made. quite a few trips up to John Ast's. EVELYN THERESA R1IGGIO Shut zap!

Wham! bang! she goes careening down the floor with opponents strewn behind her on the COUIT. Whenever Ev is on the bas' kenball court, there are plenty of thrills. For four years Ev has played varsity basketball, a veteran whose ability has aided the team in many a victory. She assisted great- ly toward achieving the string of victories in 1945, 1946, when the Matarnoras basketball team was undefeated for two seasons. Darkfhaired, dark-eyed, genial Evelyn was also editor of the school journal and assis- tant editor of the Delaware in '47. She was one of the bestfdressed girls in her class, no small evidence of her personal interest in fashion designing. GWENDOLYN DORIS ROE L'Stop it, you fellas! Given Member of journalism cluib, '46-'47g Mystery of Crazy canyon Ranch , '46g lib' rary club secretary, '44f'45g dramatic club, '45- '46g dance club, '46-'47. Gwen is a fine example of the old pro- verb, All good things come in small pack' ages. She's the smallest girl in the class, but one of the most ambitious. Her blue eyes, charming personality, and stenographic ability are things to be reck- oned with by her future boss or boy friend Cor bothh. Though quiet and subdued, she has a natural dignity and lady-like air that her classmate try to ruffle now and then but respect her for having, nevertheless. Gwen is the general handy man of the journal staff, Her jobs are many and var' iecl and she does them all efficiently and cap- ab y. Displaying excellent acting ability inthe senior play, Crazy Can on Ranch , Gwen played a personality role directly opposite that of her own, that of a tough gun moll . Everyone knows Gwen wouldn't hurt a fly - unless she were aroused, of course! l'Af'1icted with tuberculosis from childhood, later having his leg amputated, Henley wrote this poem in a hospital bed shortly before he died. We can only desire to face our future with the samie spiritj INVICTUS C U nconquerablel Out of the night that covers me, Black as the Pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds, and shall find me, unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.

Girls, Basketball Excerpt from Port Jervis UnioneGazette: GIRLS WIN OVERTIME 'The Matamoras girls are the happiest bunch in the world today, as they closed their season with a tremendous victory over Milford, their arch rivals who had held the Indian sign over them until last night. Coming up with a great defense in the three-minute over' time period, Eve Riggio, Ellen Bopp, and Kathy Ast stood up like great pillars and rejected every Milford assault. For the Matties it was a foul throw by Betty Bloker and a field goal by Pat Wozniak that broke the llfll deadlock. PatWoZ1niak was the ,big gunner for the Matties as she pumped eleven counters through the hoop. ' Practically a new team was organized this year. iMany of the new arrivals had little experience, but they did a fine job with what little they knew. Miss Irene Miller started as our able coach until she left in December. Miss Marie Longo thern filled the vacancy left by Miss Miller. The one and only veteran of the undefeated team of 1944-45, 1945-46, Evelyn Riggio, acted as coach in the guard section. Phyllis De Angelo was the coach of the forward section, The girls were thankful for her cooperation arnd interest in the basketball team- Much fun was had by this group of rising stars, and we,can assure you that in the future they will be a winning team, jk I Keep up the good work, boys, and keep that ball rolling for more victories for good Lefr to Right: Mr. Elmore Purdue, David Goble, Harold Edwards, Richard Malone, George Campfbell, David' Dilger, Russell Schumacher. The Junior Varsity Under the direction of their capable captain, Dick Malone, the j.V.'s have obtained 6 victories out of 8 games. Two games were lost at Sussex, but they tried hard, anvway. They further proved their ability by Winning the game in behalf of the lnfantile Paralysis Funldg also, three games they played with the Y.M.C.A. League. The junior Varsity this year is something to talk about. just let them get a hold of the ball and the other team doesn't evefn get a chance at it. They boast a strong, healthy, handsome group of boys, and we are inighty proud to say that they are members of a Mataf moras High School team. f ol' M.H.S.

Cheerleaders l'TeamI team! team! is a refrain often heard coming from the basketball court. Our cheerleaders are in action again, helping to bring the many victories which our teams have won. The cheerleaders come tripping out with their blue skirts and white sweaters asking for the support of the eager home rooting spectators, which they know they will get and always do- Something new has been added to the cleverness of the Matamoras cheers. Many unusual interpretations of the old cheers have made cheering more interestingg such as: Barney Google, Andy Gump We've got Milford Up a stump! 1 Some tricky new cheers have been added to the long list of cheers of M.

Under the leadership of Miss Marie Lehn, music supervisor, assisted by Miss Mary Ellen Mahoney, accompanist, this group of young singers enjov regular rehearsals of fine music, most of the solngs being first and second soprano and alto harmony. Many hours are spent in ,preparation for the annual spring concert, which is the main event of the year. lt has been customary during the past several years for the senior glee club to exchange assembly programs With Port Jervis High School sometime in May.

The Baseball Team 4 On this group of young men, above, Matamoras will pin her hopes for the coming season in baseball. This is the red and blue's second season in this sport, and With the experience gained last year our team should give a good account of itself in its contests. Pete Toussaint will resume his pitching assignment for the Matamoras High School team. Many of the other team members are Veterans of either last yearls high school team or the summ ' h ' er team in t e Y. M, C. A. League. It is to be noted that Matamoras won the 1946 Y. M- C. A. championship behind Pete Toussaint. Junior Play One of the highlights of every class' high school days is the presentation of their first play. That event, so eagerly awaited, is perhaps the most exciting thing in the year to those concerned. . The curtain went up at 8 P. M., April 5, 1946 on Deacon Dubbsn, our first endeavor. This melodramatic comedy was the first play of its type to be presented in the Matamoras High School audltorium in many years. It was very well received and declared a huge success. Mr. William G.

Minnie has a boy friend, Standing Cow, who contributes to fhe fun- Complications arise when Peter Sheldon, owner of a neighboring ranch, calls on the girls. Georgia doesn't know whether or not to suspect him of murdering her uncle or to love him. Two criminals are at large and arrive at the ranch to hide. Sheriff jim Courtney and Peter prove their worth by capturing the bank robbers, who are Elijah and Phoebe Stockbound. Georgia and Peter, Jennifer and jim, Ann and Willie provided enough romance, while the two Indian characters carried the comedy. Finally, the solution was found, but only after the story had been packed with thrills, chills, and laughter. Z..!, Z-lx ff- X Q-.

The wind was howling, and all of a sudden I realized it wasn't a bad dream, for I was in a jumble of steel girders and bricks. The place, a super-chemical plant, had been blown up by its president, Andy Gassmann. He'd been working with the new wonder chemicalv, tridiementhocloroxiferic' trypalicon, which would make dog biscuits from pine needles. I concluded I was out of a job, so I headed to my apartment, picked up my luggage Cone handbagb, and set out for Port Jervis. I was fresh out of money when I arrived there, having lost it in a poker game on the way, so I had to walk home. I trudged through the underpass and over the bridge - home at last! But what was that? No longer was the old Decker barber shop there, but a new twofstory building, the Kenflilaine Beauty Parlor, Inc. As I turned around for one last look, I saw a tall girl come from the building with a boy that looked just like Ken. So I concluded that this was Elaine, now a wife. Across the street I saw a sign which made me feel happy, for it told me one of our classmates had conquered her ambition. It read: Vocal and Piano-forte Instruction by Miss Jeannette Bloker. Woody's Ideal Market was no longer in its place, but instead there was a sign which announced an Advice to the Lovelorn Agency. Opening the door gave me a view of a lush office, and there was Rita Blanche ,Lutz behind the desk- I had suffered from a head- acheg so I told Miss Lutz my troubles: how my husband went out after ,bread two years ago and hadn't come back yet. She promptly advised me to send out someone else for the bread- Feeling much relieved, I went into the post office and asked the postmaster for a 3c stamp. I paid the gent and suddenly realized that it was Bill McCullough, I guess he hung around there so much they finally had to put him to work. This shock called for a little nourishment- I decided to go back up the street to Moon's Sweep Shoppe. just as I had expected, there was Phyllis Qwho else?D Decker working as a soda jerk. She had bought Bill's share in the business and now she and George ran it together. The clock struck four and some railroaders walked in. Someone slapped me on the back, and with a hearty Hello, Buddy! , I knew that the fascination for choofchoo trains had caught up with Ray Pennell. I Then Gwen Roe came in, and she showed me the two little Garm twins, Eldridge Jr. and Gwendolyn Jr. She announced that married life was fine. ' The school was still standing, I went inside. I peeked into the office but there was no one there. I walked' through the high school and still no principal. Then I looked into first grade, and there was joe Denham, the new principal, supervising Mrs. Denham QViD in her reading class. I left the school and went to Pennsylvania Ave. There was a large bloclesized manuf facturing plant, the Eldo Ewfbank Diesel Engine Company, I guess he had hit the jackpot. for I saw him smoking big cigars as he drove away in his limousine. I wandered in the general direction of Vickie's and saw a large greenhouse in the cor- ner vacant lot, Vickie was ,inside with her tweezers, pulling weeds from her flowers. She said she had tried to cross a wooden leg with a silkworm so that she could get silk stockings, but it was a failure because they didn't have a straight seam. I asked her about Evelyn and received the heartening news that she had the most fashionable clothing shoppe in the tri' states area. I After I left her I headed toward Milford in my mother's car, and just before reaching there I saw a large house in the shape of an ear of corn. There were four tractors plowing the field, and when I stopped near them, I saw it was Don Cuddeback. He was now a big farmer and was living off the land. He and Pat and the junior Cuddebacks were running the place. Prophecy On the Prophet Upon making a visit to Matamoras some time after graduation, I thought it would be a good idea to go up and see my old friend, Raymond. When I arrived at his house, he was ready to go over to the Glen- woodg so I decided to go over with him. Much to my surprise, who should be our waitress but Ellen Bopp! After Andy had built up her future to terrific proportions, she had been .forced to take a job in her old capacity as a hash-slinger . I 1 Class 1History W FRESHMAN YEAR ' ' ' t , Long,'long agoh'in'the month of June, 194-3, we nineteen'ear'nest. hard-workingeighth' graders formed thefreshman class of Matamoras High School. Two featuresumarked the first day history. One was the fact that we had fifteen .cents in thetreasury, theflzseeond fact was that 'two new members, Gwendolyn'Roe and Raymond Pennell, 'both of Mill Rift, joined our clsss. We started the ball rolling by selecting the class motto c'Multum ln Parvow, meaning much in littlen. The white rose was chosen as the class flower, and maroon and gold, the class colors. Andy Gassmann and Joe Denham made our banner. Vkfe donlt like to boast. but-ahem-we think it is the nicest banner ever made in our school. We certainly are proud of the fine job the boys did on it. With the final business of selling candy and holding Friday night dances, we swelled our treasury to fifty dollars. VV e concluded a success- ful beginning and Went home for a much-needed vacation. SOPHOMORE YEAR ' A ' l We lost. three members in our sophomore year and gained two. One person forgotftot close his ninth grade books, Art Pflanz left us for the Navy, and Florence Sievers Went to Florida. we added Ellen Bopp and Rita Lutz, who hail from Lackawaxen and 'Williamsport, respectively. We were .lucky ingaining control of the soda concessionwfrom the juniors. This helped add up the dollars for our trip to Vlfashington. It was in this year that we sold the unforgettable candied apples and popcorn. We had set our goal for one hundred fifty dollars. l might add that this goal was accomplished way beyond the mark. JUNIOR YEAR Our third year rang up, and, believe me, we were quite the busy little bees. Unfortunately, We lost another member. Although we de- creased in number, we still kept up our power to finance our Washington trip. , We still had the soda concession. Of course, the main attraction was the junior play. We produced Deacon Dubbs with a Well-chosen cast and had a very successful turn-out. However, the year was not all work and no play. As juniors our boys and girls showed great ability on the basketball court. We held the junior-Senior Party, featuring Bill Boyd's orchestra. Everyone enjoyed the music and had a gay time. We chose our senior class rings-gold with a ruby stone. SENIOR YEAR Now you find us in our senior year. The only differences are: CID we have more burdens on our shoulders, and C2j.We received two veterans into our class. We started right by producing The Mystery of Crazy Canyon Ranch. Like the other play, it was a great success. With the thought of the trip to Washington on our minds, it was decided to sell stationary, candy, and Christmas candy. Believe me, that had us running both ways. With all this business to transact, we still had the yearbook to keep us on our feet. Then the Senior Prom. A it Our happiest day was in February, when our class rings arrived. We all proudly flashed them off to everybody. Despite the fact that we have witnessed the coming and going of innumerable teachers, we have muddled through it all and still held to our motto, our hope, '4Multum In Parvof' With us the teachers have suffered many trials. In return we have gleaned some training, some information,-and perhaps a smattering on how to live., For these things we are thankful. i - Gwendolyn Roe - COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES PROCESSIONAL .................. .. ........ .. ..........
