New Paltz High School - Huguenot Yearbook (New Paltz, NY)

Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1952 volume:

cider, steaming pies, and luscious apples for just good eating, those u ho grow these apples, the orchardmen, count among their numbers some of tlie leading citizens of the community, while the results of their labor carry the name of this area to all parts of the country. Truly the apple is of extreme importance in our way of life in New Paltz. We take pleasure, therefore, in honoring it in this issue of our I II � l IRNO T. i tie pple—w hat an excellent example of a commonplace thing in life that is more a part of us than we realize. Consider the role of this fruit in our way of living in New Paltz. In the Spring the countryside glories in the beautiful whiteness of the blossoming orchards; Summer days find the area decorated with a neat green pattern of rows of apple trees; Autumn brings forth a harvest of shining fruit w hit h provides employment for many, and graces our tables with sparkling THE 1952 HUGUENOT NEW PALTZ HIGH SCHOOL NEW PALTZ • NEW YORK HavUand - Heidgerd Historical Collection Elting Library 93 Main Street New Paltz.

Our Principal Mr. Frank Bugar, our principal, who for these past five years has striven to improve and enrich our high school education, will always be held in highest esteem by the graduating class of 1952.

The cornstalks, pumpkins and paper moon gave those present the feeling of dancing amid a rustic atmosphere. The music was supplied by the Rhythmaires, our popular school swing band which made its successful debut at this dance. The class derived a great deal of enjoyment and experience from putting on its first social function and the committee deserves a great deal of credit. Swirling gowns and dinner jackets under a harvest moon. AND OUR JUNIOR PROM Silver stars twinkling in a multicolored sky, swirling gowns revolving about black and white dinner jackets . . . this was the “Cinderella Ball.” The decorations, from the glittering coach to the life-sized pages guarding the throne of Cinderella and her Prince Charming, brought to life this fairy-tale theme; while the dreamy music of Russ Gilmore's orchestra floated upon the April evening. The highlight of the dance was the crowning of Vivian Schiro as Cinderella and Robert Caron as Prince Charming. The royal pair were attended by Dona Beattie, Denise Burke, Carolyn Cotton, and Lillian Osterhoudt. The chairmen of the Junior Prom Committee, Denise Burke and Raymond DuBois, directed the intensive preparation. The Decoration Committee, headed by Carolyn Cotton and Gail Bloomer transformed the gym into a royal ballroom in which Lillian Osterhoudt and her committee served their regal refreshments. We will always remember the fun and hard work that went into our very successful Junior Prom. Vivian Schiro and Robert Caron being crowned as Cinderella and the Prince Charming of the Junior Prom. 20 AND PRESENTED OUR SENIOR PLAY A CASE OF SPRINGTIME The presentation of our senior play, “A Case of Springtime, on November 20, 1951, will stand out as one of the most enjoyable, and unforgettable events of the senior year. The rollicking rehearsals, the fun of preparing the set and gathering properties, the nervousness back' stage on the big night, and the actual per' formance made up an experience we will never forget.

Decorations. This year's Junior Class, the Class of 1953, got off to a good start in what proved to be a very eventful year. After an exciting election George Millham was chosen President; Margaret Lueken, Vice-President; and Barbara Misner, Secretary-Treasurer. When George was nominated for and later won the Student Council Vice-Presidency, Norman Richards was elected to take his place as Class President. Who can forget the high spots of our Junior yeap: our victorious team in the intramural track meet; the heated debates over the class rings which took two months to settle; our seventh place showing in the magazine subscription drive; k'SV and our first place in the Christmas Decorations ' contest for our fine blackboard illustrations showing the real meaning of Christmas. Our major undertaking of the year was, of course, our Junior Prom, which was held during the spring in the gymnasium. How we worked on the gay decorations which depicted our theme, “Evening in Paris. The class greatly appreciates the help and understanding of our advisor, Mr. Fersh, and will always look back on our Junior Year as one of our happiest. 25 •ARADIES MAN yice president Patricia will Secretary-Treasurer yA Starting our second year at New Paltz High School we chose capable leaders for our “squad” to guide us through our Sophomore term. Walter Paradies was elected “Manager, Lorna Lohr-man, “Assistant Manager, and Pat Will, “Score-keeper. Miss Trefry and Mr. Barbatsuly, being our advisors, took over the refereeing.” We kept up our salesmanship standing with Mr. Barbatsuly’s room winning the annual Student Council Magazine Drive hands down. The reward for our efforts was an ice cream party with personal awards going to Jasper Schiro and Beatrice Wendover, who were the individual leaders for the class. C.M.sJ. ! The most important event of our Sophomore Hop, with “Wondet theme. The decorations were tops and everyo had a wonderful time swinging and swaying to the tunes of the Rhythmaires. Many thanks go to Mr. Udvari, who helped us bring Disney’s characters on to cardboard so well; and to Miss Trefry, who had the patience and time to stay during our decorating.

The Class of 1955 entered New Paltz High School in the fall and quickly became an active part of the school routine. We chose our leaders early in the year electing Fred Ott as our President, Roger Thorpe as Vice-President, Andrea deOnis as Secretary-Treasurer and Laura Wilson as our Class Historian. An enthusiastic freshman campaign during the Student Council elections succeeded in getting Domonick Sfregola elected to the office of Treasurer of that organization. With the help of our Guidance Counselor, Miss Aldous, and our homeroom teachers, Mrs. LaFalce and Mrs. McKenna, we selected the courses we would follow for our remaining years in high school. We have been very active in school activities with a large percentage of our class participating in the music organizations, including the band, orchestra, and the boy's and girl’s choruses. Two of our most musically talented boys, Roger and Richard Thorpe, became members of the Rhythmaires. The Freshman Class was also well represented in the athletic organizations with five freshmen gaining positions on the J. V. Basketball team. Another coin drops into Mrs. LaFalce’s chewing gum box as Richard pays his fine. Domonick Sfregola delivers the campaign speech which helped elect him as Treasurer of the Student Council. LAURA WILSON Historian ...FRESHMEN 29 Photography. Several vocational courses such as Farming, Typing, and Shorthand were also well received. The twenty weekly classes in each group w'ere completed on March 24 w'ith the graduation exercises and exhibits at which time the adults were addressed by Dr. Paul Essert, of Columbia University, a nationally known authority in this field. Adult Education courses at New Paltz started this year on October 15 under the direction of Mr. Brereton. Over 300 interested grownups registered in the fifteen different courses which were offered. With the exception of the always popular Driver Education Class most of the interest seemed to be in the hobby-type courses such as the Hobby Shop, Ceramics, Arts and Crafts, Art Association, Stenciling, and Mr. Udvari inspects a project in his ceramics class with a critical eye. Mr. MacDonald assists an enthust astic adult in the shop. Miss Barhydt’s Sewing Group hurry to finish their projects. The country schoolhcuse has been an important part of our American way of life and New Paltz is no exception. At Gardiner, Mrs. Janet Bracken and Mr. Robert Lynch help shape the lives of 30 children. Mrs. Vera Atkins at Tuthilltown has 8 pupils under her care and out at Plutarch 12 boys and girls learn their three R’s from Mrs. Frances Sutherland. Though the numbers of these groups are small the work that they accomplish is great and the record that some of them make when they reach New Paltz speaks well for the place of the “Little Red Schoolhouse.

With the brilliant offensive playing of Caron, Grey, Powers, deOnis and the two DuBois twins and the great defensive work of these same boys along with Clearwater, Martin, and Edmonds, the team waS able once again to come out on top of the league. The only setback came in the opening game against Pine Bush which was lost 12 to 6 in the last five seconds. After this defeat, however, the New Paltz sextet began to coordinate better both offensively and defensively. This fact was illustrated by the scores rolled up against the opposition in the remaining games. The championship was not won, however, until the last game when on a cold, dismal day the Johnsonmen skidded and powered their way through mud and rain for a 25 to 6 verdict over their archrivals, Marlboro. Coach Johnson and the boys deserve congratulations for coming through with flying colors—when least expected!

This has been the only con' soling feature of this year's basketball season. With all but two of last year's team lost by graduation. Coach Johnson had his work cut out for him from the very start. This, along with a tough 18 game schedule which included such schools as Arlington, Wappingers Falls, Ellenville, and Roosevelt; explains the summary which includes more games in the lost column than you can find in the won column. The story was much better with the Junior Varsity team, however. The younger boys, cap' tained by George Rost, won many more games than they lost and the experience which they gained this year should go far to bring the Maroons up to their usual position at the head of the league next year.

Vincent scores two more points for the Seniors against the Sophomores. Our new athletic field was christened this year by our first big intramural sports event, the highly successful inter-class track meet. On October 18 the entire student body was on hand to watch the Juniors push past the panting Seniors to win the meet with 57 points. The Seniors scored 38 points, the Sophomores 35, and the Freshmen trailed with 15. The highlight of the meet was to have been Intramural Carolyn shoots one for the Seniors. Ernie Rost and John Grey battle for a hard won point. a tug of war, in which all classes would send both boys and girls to compete in a round-robin to determine the winner. A decision was never reached, however, for seconds after the signal go the rope parted leaving the surprised but laughing competitors on the ground. The intramural program was rounded out with competition among both boys and girls in Volleyball, Basketball, Ping Pong and Softball.

COUNCIL The student body listens to one of the campaign speeches preceding the Student Council elections. George Millham presents the prizes to Mike Vogel, Beatrice Wendover, and Jasper Schiro, winners of the annual Magazine Subscription drive. With the coming of the fall semester inter-est in the Student Council elections again began to grow. Once more party slogans and campaign speeches were heard over the public address system. The tally of the votes found Robert Caron as President; George Millham, Vice-President; Vivian Schiro, Secretary; and Dominick Sfregola, T reasurer. The Council, with Miss Joan Aldous as advisor, is composed of the class officers of each class along with the four Student Council officers. These Council officers, except the President, who must be a Senior, may be from any class. In October the Student Council launched its annual Magazine Drive. Mr. Barbatsuly's homeroom went far out in front and won an ice cream ' party for being the first room to reach its goal. The individual winners were given cash prizes. Some of the other projects of the Council this year have been arranging for spectator busses to away basketball games; sponsoring Hallowe'en and Christmas parties; establishing a traffic partol, and sponsoring a dance. Again the Student Council has been responsible for the Social Activities Room which has proven very popular with those who were given the privilege of using it by keeping up in their studies. The biggest project of the Council this year has been the sponsoring of the Hudson Valley Relays which were held in May. This was the first big event to be held on our new athletic field and it brought spectators and competitors from all over this area to New Paltz. 45 LEFT TO RIGHT: Miss Joseph, Advisor; Carolyn Cotton, Ernest Rost, Margaret Lueken, Norman Richards, Barbara Misner, Raymond DuBois, Denise Burke, John Jeanenney, Vivian Schiro, Robert Caron, Dorothy Rasmussen, Mr. Bugar, Principal. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY... The National Honor Society is an organi' zation found in the secondary schools of this country to give recognition to those who excel in scholarship, leadership, service, and character. Until the induction service this year, on Febru-ary 6, 1952; the New Paltz Chapter, with Miss Joseph as advisor, had only four members remaining from last years group. At this time, however, four Juniors and three Seniors were admitted after a colorful induction ceremony in the auditorium. After the installation of the new members they were entertained with their parents at a tea in the library. Denise Burke pins a carnation on newly elected Carolyn Cotton as Robert Caron assists, at the indue tion ceremony. HUGUENOT Mr. Dippcl and his leading salesmen plan a new money raising scheme.

This year, as the preceding year, Mrs. Browm was our sorority advisor. The first project of the O. M. N. was a food sale. This was followed by the O. M. N. Follies. The Follies through its skits and decorations depicted the periods of the Gay Nineties and the Roaring Twenties and was very much enjoyed by all those present. The O. M. N. greatly appreciated the help given it by the faculty, especially Mrs. Brown. Other regular activities such as the picnic rounded out the year and made it a very enjoyable one for all the girls.

At opr initiation we installed eleven new members. Our next big event was our food sale at Lane Sargents with which we raised funds to help send our senior members to New York to see a Broadway play. Closely following the food sale we held our annual Checkerboard Cafe on February 11th. Denise Burke as chairman of this event did a wonderful job with her committees and made it a night that the sorority is proud of.

An assembly sing, a Thanksgiving radio program, and the All State Music Festival at Hancock, New York, in which eleven of our students participated, were the chief activities during the fall. On December 22 the lovely and inspiring Christmas Cantata was presented. The Music Council Dance, with the music by the school swing band, the Rhythmaires, was thoroughly enjoyed by all attending.

Clinic with twenty of our students among its number was an important March funtion. In April thirty students attended a performance at the Metropolitan Opera. The major undertaking of the year was the Spring Concert, successfully presented in May. An abundance of minor events—the Melo-dettes and Octet performances, the band playing at games, the orchestra at graduation—completed a truly musical year. Mrs. Brown has reason to be proud of her excellent jpb as music director. NEPA HI LITES The quarterly issues of our paper this year were brimming with stories, news, and features of interest to all students and faculty. Much hard work by the editors, Ernest Rost and Carolyn Cotton, Mrs. LaFalce, as Advisor, Mr. Udvari and his art staff, and the whole Nepa Hi Lites staff produced a highly commendable paper while providing valuable experience for all the students concerned. If from time to time during the year you saw a student hurrying by with her sleeves rolled up and ink smudges on her face you were probably looking at one of the members of the Commercial Club. This group, under the direction of Miss Zibella, worked with the Nepa Hi Lites by typing and mimeographing the school paper. As members of the Tumbling Club the students had the use of the gym and all its equipment such as mats, springboard, and the various safety devises. The twenty-one members of the club, under the supervision of our advisor, Mr. Johnson, worked toward the development of physical coordination, body control, and the perfection of various stunts both on and off of the springboard. The Hobby Club with Mr. MacDonald as Advisor has been very busy this year making metal and wood trays, shelves, and many other useful and ornamental objects. The nineteen members of this club have derived much enjoyment from using the assortment of tools and machines available in our shop and the results indicate the degree of craftsmanship that the members have attained. jLiWAMX !£v--JL HOBBY CLUB TUMBLING CLUB iff. F - t • n SCIENCE FILM CLUB Movies! Movies! and more Movies. This has been the program of the Science Film Review Club. Every two weeks the thirty-four members gathered together to view an excellent and interesting film on some phase of science. From electricity to internal combustion engines, Mr. Mack's choices were always found interesting and enjoyable. At the end of each meeting the members would always find themselves with more and more knowledge of the wonders to be found in the field of science. BACHELOR'S CLUB This chosen dozen, known as the Bachelor's Club, have been intent upon cooking and becoming at home in the kitchen. They met during club periods and under Miss Barhydt's experienced eye concocted many delicacies which they immediately devoured. This was sometimes a task but usually a pleasure. Brownies, cup-cakes, muffins, and fudge were only a few of the dishes whipped up by our ambitious chefs. The boys enjoyed this club immensely and who wouldn't with such tasty snacks resulting. Lucky the girls who hook these cooks. DRAMATICS CLUB The Dramatics Club under Miss Trefry and Mrs. Swift, though one of the smaller organizations of the school, kept very active. With Isabelle Gibbons as President and Audrey Mackey as Secretary-Treasurer we spent our time developing our skill in acting. One of the favorite pastimes of our, group was playing Charades. This was done v to train us in the art of expressing ourselves without the use of words. One act plays fpr- pre ht also act plays for- presentation in assembly were — rehearsed. j •• C v ’ , , }Y vV ? f. MUSIC APPRECIATION CLUB Recordings from Bach to “Bing to Be-Bop characterized the Music Appreciation Club program this year. The forty members who met regularly soon came to realize that music could mean many different things to many different people as a medium of expression. Showboat and the music of George Gershwin were perhaps the most popular musical presentations enjoyed by the group. The introductions of our advisor, Mr. Fersh, though not always in the approved musical phrases, set the mood for the selected programs. The Art Appreciation Club was new to the School this year. The twelve members, under the direction of Mr. Udvari, spent the first half of the year studying Collages and Bisymmetrical designs. The last half of the term was spent working on leather carved hand bags. A visit to the Museum of Modern Art was also an interest' ing part of the club's program. The Dancing Club, with Mrs. Brown and Mr. Barbatsuly as our advisors, was the largest club to be found at New Paltz High School this year. Every other week the members would meet in the gymnasium to learn the basic dance steps for the Waltz, Rhumba, Fox Trot, and Lindy. Roger Thorpe was chosen as President of the club this year by its members. DANCING CLUB ■. : unv ■ Say Ah!!!” 2. ‘‘It can’t be as bad as all that, Mrs. Brown.” 3. “Watch carefully.
