The girls helped to clear the expense of this by bolding a food sale several weeks before the dance. 'Phc Juniors are well represented in sports: Ruth Golden and Myrna Worthington. as regular players on the basketball team, and Marion Brutz, as a sub, did much to bring our girls basketball team out ahead so many times. Two of these same girls, Ruth Golden and Marion Brutz. as well as Betty Noble made good showing in tennis. Not to be outdone by the weaker sex. the boys did their part well too. In basketball. Poring Miller was star center as well as forward until he hurt his back and had to give up playing. Wesley Pane. Donald Warner, Elmer Roscoe, Millard Dorwin. Irving Tanner worked hard to bring New Milford High School to victory. Robert Kroph. Marinus van Kleef, |r., Frank Hosford and Salvatore Onorato, under Mr. Knox’s direction, helped make up an average ice hockey team. The baseball season found the following Juniors out for positions on the team: Elmer Rqpcoe, Donald Warner, Millard Dorwin, and Salvatore Onorato. Cl. ASS OF 1934 7 SOPHOMORE CLASS The Class of 1936 has an erollmcnt of thirty-five girls and forty hoys. During the year one of our girls, Charlotte Bcvis, left, and a new hoy. David Delaney, enrolled. The class officers are: President: Eugene Flynn Vice-President: Robert Peaglcr Secretary: Alma Anderson Treasurer: Edward Burns The Sophomore Class was well represented in school spor s. Jessie Dolan and Elizabeth Grant received letters for participating in basketball. For the boys. Kibhe, Kwasniewski and Peaglcr received letters. For basketball we had Kwasniewski and Kibhe both receiving letters. Flynn and Addis were on the school hockey team. A class basketball team was organized. Those on the boys’ team were D’Anna, Bray, Addis, Maxwell. Thalen. Grant, and Hancock. On the girls’ team were Chalmers, Golden, Hunter, Shanks, Bilski, Frizzell, and Lee. Two main events of the year were Bow Day held on April 20th and the Senior Feed held on May 24th. i8 New Milford High School FRESHMAN CLASS The one hundred and four members of the Class of 1937 make it the largest Freshman Class ever enrolled in the New Milford High School. The pupils that have left during the year are Margaret Polanis, Lionel Saunders, and Leo Rosati. Esther Cohen joined our happy circle in April. We chose Miss Campbell as our class advisor. The class officers are: President: Joseph Yarochowicz Vice-President: Nickerson Addis Treasurer: Martina Hoag Secretary: Ethel Prince Class of 1934 9 JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL This year has been the most successful one for the Junior High School. Each room has succeeded in getting two perfect days. Two assembly programs were given—March—“Everybody.” a morality play was kindly received by the Senior High; on May 9th—A Radio Program and a Circus were presented. The majority of the pupils took part. This was an English project headed by Harriett Lane and Jean Peck. The spirit and co-operation of all the pupils was noticeable. The eighth grade of the Junior High School having been “branded” with the name of the noisiest room, entered the seventh grade with this reputation. They have worked hard to overcome this handicap. This year they organized a club entitled W. K. W. C. (We Know We Can) which has proved very successful. As a result Room 14 now leads in scholarship, dramatics and attendance. They have had 65 perfect days, 20 in succession. They also have received their class pins which arc most attractive. A monthly paper was issued by Room 14. with the assistance of Miss Sullivan’s typing class. Pupils that left during the year were from room 14. Robert Baily, Xigmient Wolenski, and Lee Slaughter; from room io. Joseph Carney, John Greninski, Violet Tern pieman. Pupils that entered dining the year were; Room 15. Doyens Nemeckay; Room 14, Albert D’Anna, Room 10, Louis Barney. 20 New Milford High School DRAMATIC CLUB President: Barbara Stevens Vice-President: Robert Peck Secretary: Katharine Castle Treasurer: Virginia Donnelly The Dramatic Cu r has been especially prominent ir its activities this year. In the fall it presented two short skits for the benefit of the School Orchestra. As usual the club backed the Christmas and Thanksgiving assembly programs. The outstanding accomplishment was the play Martha By The Day.” presented April 13th in the High School Auditorium. Through the splendid work of Dorothy Strid and the rest of the cast the play was a great success. The following are the new members for this year: Josephine Barton. Martina Hoag. Elizabeth Knowles, Nickerson Addis, Stearns Post. Truman Castle, Bernice Hatch, Bernard Young, Marcel Boris, and Betty Noble. Class of 1934 21 THE GIRLS’ BASKETBALL TEAM The New Milford High School Girls Basketball team lias completed the 33 and 34 season, losing two of the fourteen games played. They were defeated by Salisbury on March 2, at the Newtown I own Hall, the score being 33-36, giving the latter the championship. The players were the following: forwards: Jessie Dolan, Sophie Smyrski. Marion Brutz, and Shirley Sussman; centers: Hattie Straub, and Mary odjenski; guards: Barbara Stevens. Ruth Golden, Myrna Worthington, Genevieve Halpinc and Betty Grant; Katharine Castle (Manager). We sincerely appreciate Miss Maas’s kind efforts in training our team this year, and we hope that she will go far in the field of training. The team loses three experienced players plus a sub guard by graduation, namely: Barbara Stevens, Sophie Smyrski, Hattie Straub, and Genevieve Halpine. There are several veteran players left and we wish them luck for another successful season. 22 New Milford High School BOYS’ ATHLETICS I he New Milford High School Basketball team had a fairly successful season, winning ten out of the seventeen games played. The team was seriously handi-cacapped at the beginning of the season due to the sickness of Thomas Leahey and Donald Warner, through appendicitis. These two hoys came hack after the Christmas holidays and added strength to the team. The changing of “Hal” Straub to guard and Millard Dorwin to center also strengthened the team. The players on the team are. Straub, Kuhne, Leahey, Dorwin, Roscoe. Warner, Kibbe, Peagler, Kwasniewski, Tanner, and Lane. Through graduation we lose, Lea hey, Straub and Kuhne, therefore the boys should have a strong team next year. The entire school is sorry to hear that Mr. Lumley will not coach next year’s Basketball team. I he Basketball team as well as the students have appreciated the work he has done in developing basketball and baseball teams of such high caliber. The Faculty and the Student Body join in wishing him success in his new undertaking. While the hockey team, under Mr. Knox’s coaching, was not highly successful, the sport was enjoyed by the students. Games were scheduled with Gunnery, Canterbury and Wooster. Those who participated were: Maxwell, van Kleef, Onorato, Kroph. Addis, Flynn, Castle, and Pomeroy. The players on the Tennis team of 1934 were Raymond Brown. Reginald Taylor. Edwin Pomeroy, Robert Kroph. Ralph Camp, and Truman Castle. The manager, Edwin Pomeroy, arranged matches with several schools, namely: Canterbury, Wooster, Gunnery, Danbury Trade, South Kdnt. Litchfield, Romford and Torrington. Due Due to the able coaching of Mr. Knox, the team was quite successful. Class of 1934 23 Class History Sophie Smyrski During the summer following our promotion from the eighth grade, for the first time in our school career, we looked forward to the opening of school in the fall when we were, to enter the high school. On a bright September morning, as the clang of the nine o'clock bell shrilled through the air, a group of about eighty timid Freshmen filed into the building on Main street. Before we entered the doors we had felt superior to the seventh and eighth grades of which we were a part the year before; but now we felt suddenly changed, for the Seniors and upper classmen stood around and stared at us, making us feel like a group ot lost dogs, very nervous, bashful, and cjnite unsure of ourselves. We became more and more confused until tbe final bell rang. Our room teacher was Miss Bousquet. She finally managed to get most of us seated and to tell us about our subjects, but our class was so large that some of us had to be seated in the Sophomore room. Of course we all wanted to be the ones to go. for we thought then the other pupils would mistake us for Sophomores. We went up to the top floor for the assembly and once again were reviewed by the upper class students. Here we were informed about the rules of the school and told how to get along with the least possible trouble. After this assembly in the morning we returned to our home room and tried to get our classes straightened out. During the next few days we became acquainted with our classmates and our classes became routine. In fact it was not long before we felt we knew each other well enough to elect our class officers. Then the mid-year examinations were ui on us. I do not believe that any other class ever took this ordeal as seriously as we did. To us it seemed as though our lives depended upon passing, and so days of hard studying preceded the exams. But we survived, and life again resumed its even way. In the meantime the basketball season was going on which furnished excitement among our classmates. 24 New Milford High School During our Freshman year our new school was being built on East Street. We loved to go through the new building and compare it with the old and were very glad to see the auditorium in which we would hold our basketball games and dances. June canie almost too quickly, and as our life in the old building ended we spent the last few days carrying our books and other |x)ssessions over to the new school. This was a pleasant way to end the year. acation flew more rapidly than school days and soon September was here again. I his year we were not so embarrassed by the upper-classmen but did a little Freshman surveying ourselves. Our room was up-stairs and our class was divided into two parts, some under the supervision of Miss Campbell and others under Miss Millane. Our class had diminished since last year, but we welcomed Granville Burton, Dorothy Russell and Elliott Kuhne as new members. Granville proved a very capable president and he was very active in school sports. Dorothy played in the school orchestra and was also an honor student. Baseball and basketball teams would have been quite lost without Elliott’s speedy playing. With the election of class officers and basketball and baseball practice, our Sophomore year seemed to go as pleasantly as our Freshman year. One of the customs of the school is for the Sophomores to observe Bow-day. No one knows its origin or purpose, unless it is to remind us that our childhood days are not long past. 1 he girls wear big b. ight ribbons on their hair and the boys wear bow neckties. For us bow-day came in the spring. We felt very foolish with big bows on our heads when we thought we were grown up. All the other pupils stared at us and consequently, near the end of the school day most of the bows had disappeared. Another important school custom is for the Sophomores to entertain the Seniors at an outdoor dinner some day toward the end of the year. This is properly called the Senior Feed. 1 remember how hard we struggled to get together enough food for those hungry Seniors. It happened that the day we chose was rainy, the only rainy day ever selected for a Senior Feed, so instead of holding the event outdoors we had to adjourn to the school auditorium. When we saw how vigorously the Seniors put away the food, we were very much afraid that there would not be any left for ourselves so we hid a small amount. But as hungry as those Seniors were, we finally filled them up and devoured the food that was left. The Senior Feed was the last important event of our Sophomore year. As Juniors we were more dignified than we were as Sophomores. Our Junior year was taken up with basketball, baseball and the election of class officers. The big event of the year was the annual Junior Prom. It was a very busy time for us because the hall had to be decorated and plans for the evening had to be made. How- Class of 1934 25 ever, after it was over we knew our time had been wisely spent, for the Prom was big success. Our Junior year came to a close much too quickly and awaited our Senior year when we would graduate. As Seniors we watched the poor little timid Freshmen entering the building and our thoughts quickly went back four years to the days when we were starting our high school life. We knew how they felt and how nervous they were, but did not act accordingly. This year has been full of important events and it has gone all too quickly. As money was needed for our trip at the end of the year, we held a Senior dance and several food and rummage ales which helped us out financially. We made plans for the year book, for which we all had our pictures taken, and had to work hard to get advertisements to pay for it. Next came the big event, the Senior Play. Many of you that were there know how well it came out and how successful we were. Then plans for graduation and class night had to be made. In due time, the Sophomores were preparing for our Senior Feed. 1 don’t think the Sophomores had too much left after we were through, for we acted the way the Scniois did at ours. I have mentioned our class elections before. Rollin Marsh, Granville Burton and Robert Peck have been our presidents. The heavy burden of Senior affairs has fallen on Robert Peck and everyone knows how well he has led us, and how successful he has been. He worked on our money-making campaigns which will go a long way toward paying for our Senior trip. Irving Sussman and Doris Sanford have been our vice-presidents, while 1 homas l.eahey, Betty Peck, Katharine Castle and Irving Sussman have been our secretaries. Our treasurers were Alvin Brown, Alice Johnson and Barbara Stevens. Barbara has had the hardest job collecting dues. I am sure all of our classmates will remember how she kept after us until the last cent was in. Our class has always been prominent in athletics. Harriett Straub, Barbara Stevens, Genevieve Halpine and myself have kept our girls’ basketball team among the winners. Katharine Castle and myself have helped the girls’ tennis team to be victorious. Our boys’ basketball team would have been lost without Thomas Leahey, Harold Straub and Elliott Kuhne on the team. In baseball these three boys with Arvid Alfredson, and Alvin Brown have kept our team near the top. Edwin Pomeroy and Raymond Brown have been our leading tennis players. Just as the school gives letters for baseball and basketball it also awards emblems for leadership in school affairs and especially in scholarship. Doris Sanford is the only one who received an emblem every year. Rollin Marsh, Dorothy Russell and myself have received them for three years, while Raymond Brown, Harriet Nkw Milford High School 26 Lawler, Katharine Castle, Betty Peck, Marguerite Peterson received emblems for two years. Irving Sussman, Barbara Stevens, Robert Peck, Genevieve Halpine, Alice Johnson and Louise Camp have the honor of receiving emblems for one year. And now, the school days that once seemed so long, have come to a close and as we realize how much our four years in the New Milford High School has done for us we are grateful to Mr. Pettibone and the faculty. Under their guidance we have learned to plan and carry out important undertakings, we know how to cooperate, and we are prepared to face the future with confidence of success.
