Halfmoon, Senior Issue We dedicate this issue of the Halfmoon to the BUSINESS MEN OP MECHANICVILLE. High school students are too likely to take for granted the many fine things the men of a com- munity do for them; but we want YOU to know we realize your value to the city and to us. This year the Halfmoon was awarded a medal (its fifth) for being an outstanding member of its class in a nation- wide contest. This medal is yours, not really ours. There would have been no Halfmoon had it not been for Mr. Golden Mr. Oakes Mr. Verdicchio Mr. Amodeo Mr. Paddock We could not have gone on without the aid given us by Mr. White . Mr. Pender Mr. Hughes Mr. Williams Mr. Selkis Mrs, Collins Mr. Cassidy Mr, Powers Mr. Malone Mr. Fantauzzi Mr. Matarazzo Any honors the Halfmoon has received are shared with gentlemen. If our publication is an outstanding one, and so judges have proclaimed it, it is because outstanding citizens have made it so. To you, Mr. Sterling Mr. Strattner Mr. Hayner Mr. Hemstreet Mr. Bostwick Mr. Wright and other gentlemen of the West Virginia, we offer our thanks for the many times you have graciously come to our aid. Our honors are yours. To Mr. Kurs and Mr. Herrick (Art Press) we are equally indebted. If thoy had not given so freely of their time and equipment, if they had been merely interested in profit, you seniors would not have this issue of the Halfmoon. No community can boast of any more stalwart aids to its school; no alumni could have aided moro. Our city may not be a wealthy one, but wo are rich in individuals. Wo are proud of having won a medalI We are more proud of you, BUSINESS MEN OF MECHANICVILLE. Halfmoon, Senior Issue pat romj and o o o o Mrs. P. H. Angle Miss M. L.

She lilfes that romance language and she is also interested in Spain. (Continued Conway, Albert--One Nolan's as good as another. Hey Bert? Crossway, Bernice--Have you ever heard her sing?

LaValla, Samuel--He loves the girls but-------------- LaVigne, jQhn—Johnny has stepped out at last. He's starting in 9th and working up. LaVigne, Patsy—Patsy sure does get around.

Hayner, G. Smith, M Hughes, j, Dalton, C. Mellon and L. Smith are about to perform a major oper- ation. A radio announcer, Betty Grey, is just about ready to broadcast a play-by-play description of this. The Doctors are warming up (to left) vigorously, while the nurses, H. Gannon, C. Zeppieri, B. Friery, and B. Kline, are preparing the instruments (at center). The patient, P. Luvigne, looks about in amazement. Betty Grey: Well folks, here we are at the Institution for the Dipsy Doodles. Today is the day that means doom for the doodle bug if the operation is successful. The Doodle Bug, as you all know, has been terrorizing people from one corner of the earth to the other. There is a large crowd here today watching this operation; millions of people are listening at their radios for the news that the doo- dle bug has been snagged. We feel honored to know that this in- vestigation is being carried on right near us. And (loud noise) well, we are just about ready to start. What a day! What a dayl Never saw Dr. Cuttem in such fine shape. Here comes Dr. Findum. Listen to that crowd roar! (Nurses cheer) It's wonderful, it’s wonderful. (Whistle blows) There goes the whistle. We're off! Dr. Cuttem starts in with fierce determination, oh-oh. Dr. Gall- stones got his nose in the v ay. They're off to a good start but no one knows what the finish will be. Dr. Filum is standing near- by ready to help. No, no, don't take that, Dr., that's the pat- ient's esophagus. Too late now, well, ho wasn't hungry, anyway. There certainly are some strange sights here. There's Prof. Strep with a large net in his hands. Oh, I see, he's waiting for that Doodle Bug. Dr. Gallstones takes over now, as Dr. Cuttum wipes the perspiration from his brow. We're all holding our breath-------- one slip on Dr. Gallstone's part and it will be all over. Whoops, he slipped! Well, I guess it's all over. Once again science has failed to locate that vicious germ, the Doodle Bug. (exits) Prof. Streptoccous returns to his microscope. Dr. Cuttum dries hands on towel and sits at right. Dr. U. Findum begins to sharpen tools. Dr. Gallstones (Bob Hayner) goes to his desk. Dr. Filum be- gins to straighten his files. Miss Esther Ether and Miss Anna Sthetic are assisting Dr. U. Findum as ho sharpens tools. Miss Clora Form and Miss Ophelia Pulse are entertaining patients. Dr. Hiccup is talk- ing very seriously to Prof. Streptoccous, who seems very annoyed. (Continued on Page 38) If moon, Senior Issue 23 Halfmoon, Senior Issue 24 Adams, Leroy—Miss Howe’s stand-by.

You will discover, the same as we have, do your days In the big house assume overtime proportions, that sitting In one of these scholastic Indian summer sessions Is enlightening on several counts. Once successfully out of the great struggle signi- fying supremacy over sheep-skin, you can sort of sit back, relax, and snicker at the sudoriferous stabs those in the next hout are making to survive the grind. Once their mitt has muscled the mole- skin, however, they will be transformed—graduated—educated. And that's where our disillusionment comes in. Can you Imagine our cha . grin when the Inconsequential mental urchins, who for years have been under our feet and In our hair, all at once have the gross au- dacity to look us straight in the eye without flinching. Have the insolence to consider themselves our equals. Well, we guess Its the old, old story of youth triumphant. And that brings us the point of this piece. Next issue, after a string of fourteen consecutive columns, this department surrenders its place to youth. So, hang on, while your favorite SIDELINER SOLILO- QUIZES on his valedictory fling. SIDELINE SCRIBBLINGS: M.H.S. is surely right up to date with its fads. The old hot-foot stunt and checkers are the current crazes. On the basis of mentality displayed, we supoose that next season's crop of SENIORS will be playing Jacks and hlde-the-button..CARRIGAN is sort of disproving the rules of gravity. No matter how many times he goes up the hill, he gets nowhere. Don't know whether you will get that one or not. Its pretty subtle...........You will probably note that we are no longer engaging in columnar Internecine with that foul concoction naively known- as things and stuff (doesn't even rate capitals). For the past season Hayner, he of the chalybeate cranium, has been smearing snarls at this sheet all through his moldy witticisms. The motive obviously was for publicity. Now, after stealing everything he has from this page, he is casting en- vious glances at our successive column record. It's sad, but he Just doesn't realize that the low trash he is the exponent of can never be compared with the sheer artistry of this corner. Our old pal, BOB JONES, the only guy we know of who can get in your ear and in your hair at the same time, was around the other day.... Why make cracks about Railroad Street. Everyone is well sooted there. Helght- ho..Are A.A. officials all alike? Once again letters are being held up amid mutterings about mercenary indiscretions. Come on, guys, kick in, will ya? Or will ya?....CLASS DAY might not have gone off so smoothly if plans had. gone off as scheduled. A few of the boys had an idea on the fire that was a neatie. Ya'might know it would be a JUNIOR who would be asleep at the switch....Incidentally that play wasn't bad. It was TERRIBLE! SPORTS SHORTS: We are glad to hear that the scholastic standing of two of the school's athletes will not be Jeopardized next month when they start appearing with the WEST VACOS. This allowance should be all the more emphatic here in M.H.S. where there are no facili- ties to enjoy baseball as part of the school curlculum, for in spite of all, baseball is still AMERICA'S greatest sport. moon, Senior Issue Hl-Y 27 _ Halfmoon, Senior Issue THERE'S ALWAYS THE PROBLEM of how to close out a column for the year......we've been over all the possibilities and come up with a decision to go out quietly.....so pre..pare yosefs, lads 'n lassies, for another load (that's not the word you think it is) of the old, yet ever new...THING'S 'N STUFF..

Auf wiedersehen .' 32 Halfnoon, Senior Issue potRJS UM AFLY A s we bid'adiew' to another glorious season of major sports, the minor sports are just coming into their own. So, with the final edition of ye old paper at hand, we will endeavor to provide for all youse guy3 and gals a summary as complete as time permits. A FOOTBALL 1 though we triumphed in only one tilt, still our gridiron squad is to be congratulated. Reddy Fox was the star of the season scoring all the points for the season. Summary: Opponent Gloversville.... , Phj-lip Schuyler., Saratoga Nott Terrace...., Score 51-0 Scotia Hudson Falls 13-0 Total Opp...102 M. H. s....: BASKETBALL echanlcville’s hoopsters had a mediocre season for the first time in several years, scoring 7 wins compared with nine losses. The Red and White lost four straight to the indenti cal teams who bow- ed to them in the previous season and consequently they wound up in the cellar as far as league competition is concerned. From an attendance standpoint this season was a highly successful'one, for the gymnasium v.as packed to capacity for each and every game. The Wieglemen scored a double triumph over Stillwater and Hudson rails; split with Saratoga; won a single from Haverstraw and Hoos ick Falls; dropped one to the Alumni; and two to Cohoes, Watervliet, and Troy Business College. Not too good but still, not too bad. k TRACK lthough the season is not yet completed, the Weiglemen have been successful to a point far beyond that of last year. Their first match, versus Watervliet, ended in a defeat for the Scarlet and White tracksters to the tune of 51 to 43 3 4. Schuylerville, however, fell easy prey for the homesters and were downed by a 57 to 38 score! Burnt Hills followed suit and was defeated by a score of 61 to 34. Saratoga evened up with two wins and two losses for the Weiglemen. The score was 55 2 3 to 39 1 3 in Saratoga's favor. With two matches yet to be played, a very successful season is in store for M.H.S. to counteract the disastrous effects of past years. Several track men are assured of their letters and certainly many more will be before the end of the season. BOWLING owling fared best of any of the minor sports at our Alma Mater this year. The M.H.S. Keglers were runners up in league competi- tion and promise to be strong contenders for 1st place next year. {.C.OWT. or P. 36,) J — klfmoon, Senior Issue YOU MEED THE BEST TO CATCH THE DECT.

Billy McMahon met a girl on the train from Sodus Center, and she was a red-head. Her name was Rita. We wonder if Tony Falco took his hat off at all on the Washington trip. Percy Angle had quite a time with the girls from Stillwater on the trip. Miss Betty Grey fell for a guy named George O'Leary and he comes on the train every Friday night to see her. Wally 06trom and Jane Muir were looking for some place to go after the Van Zile Ball in Washington. We saw them. Helen Tancredi and Charlie Mel- lon do all right by themselves and make a splendid looking couple. Doris Sarle had a boy in tow all the while in New York City. He was a musician. We would like to hear some of those stories Mary Daloia, Doris Sarle, Anna Bruno, and Carm Zep- pieri told one night in their room in Washington. Kate Ryan and Loretta Roy like Whitehall pretty well or is it the boys. Sheldon Noonan was true, that's what she was. But when we reached New York and saw Bernie;.'.' Eileen Hayner trying to make the house detective in the Willard Hotel at Washington. Bob Hayner smoked his first cig- arette and also got a hotfoot. Art Carney met Lois (Toad) and has had her to the Hi-Y dance. Spike Wheelock met the girl of his dreams (a fifth edition) and that brought up the problem of what to do with the other four. e solved the problem by dropping ane from the list and taking the other four to each formal. Helena (the new one) rated a bid to the Junior Prom, so she seems to be in the lead. It seems that Marge Butler had quite a good time taking other girls' boy friends away from them, but there's an old saying that says Everybody ha6 his Waterloo , and she did have some tall explain- ing to do when she met Harp in New York. Sheldon Noonan, Pat Hannon, Betty Friery, and Mary Farrell de- cided to stay away from the Harr- ington after Mary had the harrow- ing experience of being pursued down the streets of Washington. Wasn't it convenient that Kate Ryan had a cousin who went to Washington? With him around, Lor- etta and Battleship had no trouble getting acquainted with the Hudson Falls boys. Silent Annello surprised every- one by taking an out of town girl for a joy ride.He even got one for Tony Falco. Why is he so shy around here. Betty Friery seemed to like to stay in the note! room when her room mates were out. Was it the hand- some bell hop? Joe Welch and Pat Hannon were inseparable. We wonder if Betty Grey has traced that mysterious telephone call which sent her running down to 219. The fellow's sister wa6 very nice, wasn't she, Betty? Orie Amodeo and June sure did have a lovely time coming to New York from Washington on the train. What made June burst out in peals of laughter? It couldn't have been sweet nothings you were whispering. Jack Bolton and Mike Fantauzze had their moments, too. Jack tried his darndest to replace Cha but finally gave up as it was a use- less struggle. Mike tried to date Jane Flynn but found out it was much easier to have VanZile's son for an escort.----Anyway VanZile's son knew Washington better. Lila Rocker met a friend at the Blue Bird, but it was Jack Bolton who had to pay for the taxi. gplfmoon. Senior Issue AMODEO'S MUSIC STUDiQ cL 3GvROVE STREET TPL. 36 3 FOP GRADUATION A G i F T THAT.

There are quite a few matches yet to be played and we hope the squad may have Its first taste of vic- tory before long. TENNIS fTHennls Is a blank. Old Man Weather has not yet relented enough to 1' allow the team to try their luck, good or bad, on the courts.

Dr. Strep: MyT my, just what I ve been waiting for. It certainly does look good to me. Dr. Gallstones; What do you mean, it looks good to you? It locks aw- ful to me. Just a bunch of scarecrows with nothing to do on a holi- day. Dr. Strep: I sent for them from the Ozarks for experiments Jn the Doodle Bug line. (Enter Hillbillies dressed as such) First Hillbilly (Fran Yattaw); I reckon I might just as well represent these people. You see, I hailed from around these parts. I used to be Constable of Willow Glenn before I was promoted to Justice of the Peace in the Ozarks. Dr. Strep: Well, line up your gang over here, and while we are waiting for the nurses to help in the examination, we’ll talk. I have lived around here all my life too. Miss--er--what did you say your name was? Fran: Just call me ''Snooks’', as long as we're getting chummy. I got that name when I went to Mechanicville High School.' Streppie: Well I went there, too. Most of the staff of this hospital graduated with me in 1938, Fran: Walt until I call the mouthpiece over. (Calls to Bob Foshay) Fetch you here, Alfalfe, and come a runnin’. Bob: I’m a cornin’ Ma. (Fran looks up at him). Fran: Doc, meet the ol’ man. ( Bob tries to bow---makes a blunder). Fran: What year did we graduate from Mechanicville High School? Bob: (Scratching his head) Well, I think it was in '38. Fran: So it t’was. (turns to Prof.) Remember the good old days? Prof: Yes sir, that certainly was a great old class. Remember Lila Rocker? I hear she's the annual chaperone for the Washington Clubs they have now. Fran: Yes, and speaking of old classmates, guess who I ran into the other day. None other than Laura Hughes. Yes sir, there I was sit- ting in the parlor-------- Bob: (interrupting) Her usual occupation. Fran: Confound you, Alfalfe---don’t interrupt me. (turns back to Gor- don) As I was saying-----------there I was sitting in the parlor, sorta wait- ing for some business when someone ups and knocks at the door. I yelled, ''Come in”, and who should walk in but Laura and Art. It seems they wanted to get hitched and they thought as how I was a J.P. they might just as well give me the money. Yes, sir, it's great to see old friends. Bob: Yeh, Ma, and don’t forget to tell him about Wally Ostrom. Fran: Oh, yeh, that’s right. Wally lives back in the hills with us folks you know, raising rabbits. He was right sorry he couldn't come up here with us folks but at the last minute he lost one of his pet rabbits, and he just couldn't tear himself away without a rabbit--especially that rabbit. Prof: Speaking of Wally Ostrom reminds me of------ Dr. _L_ Outturn: (looks up alarmed from where he is busily working as a commotion is heard in the back part of the stage). What's all the racket over there? Before you come in, I want you to know this is s respectable joint.

Dr _I• Guttum; Well, bring it up front and we'll see what we can do. |jr7 Gallstones; (brings up mike, wires and other stuff) How long did it take you to learn to hook up that contraption? DeVito: You just have to put this plug in here. Then, you talk through here, and if people have their radio's on, they can hear you any place in the United States. Fran; Is it hooked up yet? DeVito; Yes, it's already to go. (clears his throat) Ladies and Gentlemen—we brought our microphone over to the Institution for the Dipsy Doodle Bug which is terrorizing the country. We will have a few guest artists which we will interview. Fran: (steps forward, looks microphone all over) Will this dratted thing hurt you? DeVi to; Of course not. Would you like to say a few words? Fran: (looks over at gang sitting on floor, bothering doctors. Beckons to them) Come on over and say a few words through this here micro- phonie, (Sarafin Urbanski comes over chewing, steps in front of !Tix rophone and looks at it, puts his hands in pockets nervously) --Gee, I don't know what to say.

Botty Urban; (takes deep breath) er..er hellot Darie Butler; (looks at it and shakes head) DeVito! Weil, I'd like to ask a few questions about my gone, but not forgotten friends from the Class of '38. How did Jack Bolton en- joy his sojourn in Washington? Anna Amoroso; He must have had a good time especially the night after the er,er----dance. He found out what Southern hospitality is. Kelon Arigone; Speaking of Washington, how did Joe Caringe make out? Bolton; Joe did all right for himself while little Audrey just laughed and laughed 'cause she knew all the time that she was get- ting a hotfoot. (At this point Walter Amann dressed as a small boy appears on the stage) DeVito; Hello there little boy, would you like to say a word? Amann: Whadda ya mean 'little boy'? I cVi to; Just what I said, 'little boy'? ahn; I'm no little boy. Today I am Amann. (exits) -npnort Boucher• How are the Hughes girls getting along? Conley: Well Laura is holding her own, but Miriam, who used to be a Smi t ty's flame, now dallies Daley, i zel Woods; I've heard rumors about Cha and Helen. Are they really true? BUI Whitlock; When they were in Washington, they had a hard time but oetween Lila Rocker's snores and Jimmy's family history, Helen fin- ally managed to pitch a little woo with Mellon.

Joe Bush: It's a well known fact that Pat Hannan liked her Welch a rare bit. Rita Smith: Carmela, Mary, and Anna must he a wee bit scotch. They seemed to like the highlanders real well. Steve Sgambati: Mary Farrell had a hard time getting away from that cute little Normie down in 219. Julia Serbalik: Orie Amodeo didn’t seem to like Audrey's little friend, Tune Did he say she talked too much? Kate Ryan: Annello made his way around Washington all right. Especialfy the night that he took that long taxi ride. Ask Tony Falco about that, he knows everything Annello did. Lila Rockor: Sheldon enjoyed herself, but it’s too bad that picture didn’t come out, or I wonder if Orie agrees? Louise FunaroJ Ryan, Roy, and Grey made a cute trio in Washington, but they should learn to close their transom much more quietly. That’s en- ough about that trip. It’s over, but the memories linger on. Sarah Lee Randolph: Say, can anybody tell me anything about the River- side twins, Louise Funaro and Julia Serbalik? Rita Purtie: Sure, Louise is still being dictated to, and Julia mar- ried her boss. How did that bunch of reckless driving devil dogs. Curto, Smith, Sullivan, Selkis, and Ross, survive? Wallace Ostrum: Nick Curto has bought, a bus, he finds it’s more con — venient. Lewis Smith traded his car for a milk wagon, he thought he might get places faster. John Sullivan bought a student’s tick- et over to Burnt Hills, he thought it would be a lot safer, flat tires are so inconvenient, or are they? Jimmy Ross gave up driving. He’d much rather go to the movies. Sheldon Noonan: They say that Jack Strauss is still around-------is that true? Rose Natalie: I wouldn’t know, but you could get all the information about Jack that you want by asking Betty Izzo. Say, did you know we had a crooner in our Class? DeVito: No. Marie Mehan: Well, we did. Sam got his start at the Drum Corp’s tea ctance, and he’s been giving encores ever since. Paul Perkowski: Maybe you’ve forgotten Mike Fantauzzi because he is quiet, but I hear that he took Van Zilo's son out while we know he wanted to be with Jane. Is that will power or is that will power? DeVito: It’s also common gossip that Richard Wheelock has picked Hel- ena for first place in this year's hit parade. (P.S.) He doesn't brag too much about her on those frequent trips to Burnt Hills. Well, that’s all folks. (Exits) (Enter McEvoy dressed as Napoleon) Pardon me, is this the Rose Theater? Dr. Hiccup: Get out of here, or we'll break every Bon-A-Part. (Enter Laura Hughes) What have you-got on file about the class of ’38? Dr. Filum: Wait a minute.
