A record-breaking class In number, the Class of 1952 totaled 45 members on entering high school. If we were proud of this, we were soon humbled by initiation. Those who led us through this trying year were: our adviser, Miss Bingenheimer president, Erwin Drake; vice-president, Jack Potter; secretary, Nancy Seager- treasurer, Betty Allen; and Student Council representative, Peter Adams. Receiving our blue and white class jackets was the high light of that year. Each year our officers changed. In the second year Miss Bingenheimer was again our adviser and her co-workers were: president, Stewart Fleischman; vice-president Richard Riesenberger; secretary, Helen Schultz; treasurer, Richard Konz, and Peter Adams was our Student Council representative. Our project of Freshman Initiation provided sweet revenge! In our third and another extremely busy year, Betty Allen was Dresident; Richard Gardner, vice-president; Nancy Seager, secretary; Peter Adams, treasurer; and our Student Council representatives were Erwin Drake and Beverly Burke. After Miss Bingenheimer had left to teach in another school, we selected Mr. Harwood as our adviser and have enjoyed working with him since. Our class rings arrived this year as our extended hands testified. In this year also our paper collections boosted the amount in our treasury. In the present and last year of our high school career our officers are: Erwin Drake, president; Peter Adams, vice-president; Helen Schultz, secretary; Russell Hawkins, treasurer and Student Oouncil representatives, Beverly Burke, Myrle Slover, and Richard Konz. Of course we re-elected Mr. Harwood for our adviser and chose Mrs. Harrington to act with him as co-adviser because the senior year involves so many projects. The senior play, The Inner Willy and our magazine campaign were the top activities on our agenda. A versatile class, our activities varied widely but we enjoyed them all. For money making activities, we not only sold children’s books, pencils, candy, movie tickets, freshman slaves, school name tape, and magazines, (which earned us the plaque, that lr in the English room) but we sponsored three April Annual dances and a Junior Prom. We also gained quite a bit of dramatic experience in our two freshman one-act plays and our traditional senior pl9y. With the proceeds from these and our paper collections, (paper was high the year we held them) we were well assured of a wonderful trip to New York City. But if you have the impression that high school is all work and no play, banish the thought immediately. Our years were well seasoned with planned or impromptu parties which were held at classmates homes, or picnic grounds, at the lake, in hay wagons or sleighs, or on a skating rink. Most of these were promised rewards for good work on holiday occasions, while the rest were just for the sake of having fun. In some ways our stay at Naples Central School seems all too short and being alumni still unbelievable. But we realize that graduation is not the unattainable miracle we pictured it as freshmen. We are happy in that fact. There is a motto that applies to what we did in high school and is quite a good one in our opinion so we d like to leave it behind as a thought for future classes. It says, work hard when there is work to be done and when you play, have fun ! 17
