The Board of Education is comparable to the producers, while the ad- ministrators are the directors, and the members of the faculty,the assistant directors. The office staff provides the script writers. Leads in the production are taken by the senior class, underclassmen become the supporting players, understudies are the junior high studentsgand the grades provide the child stars. An important part of any production is the backstage work. The custo- dians, cafeteria workers, and bus drivers constitute the stage crew. During the production the players indeed take many parts. They may be performing as scholars, on the sports scene, in the realm of music, orin the field of publications. Now let us take our places in the audience as the curtain rises. 6 DEDICATION The Senior Class of 1954 respectfully dedicates this edition of the Century to Mr. Redmore. He is one of the top men playing the role of director on our school stage. The Seniors first met Mr. Redmore when he was their seventh grade teacher. Coming here in Sep- tember, 1948, he taught in the Junior High for three years. In 1951 he became the Elementary Supervisor, meeting all problems with quiet efficiency. A friend to a1l,Mr. Redmore has helped with many daily, weekly, and yearly performances. His cheerful manner and ready smile have helped to light our stage for six years. We hope that he will be at Newfane for many years to come.

Carlton BOARD OF EDUCATION Yes, indeed, the school is a stage, and everyone is acting a part in the com- plex drama of living and learning. From the dawn of time human beings have come into this world destined to play a part in the Great Dramatist's Plan of world development. As we grow np, we re- alize that the way we perform each day influences ourselves, our associates, and the world of our days. What kind of character are you portraying as you go about your activities at home, school, church, and elsewhere? Human thought, when enlightened by truth and inspired by love,1s expressed in gentleness and courtesy: also, with authority and conviction. Great actors, writers, and speakers have been so because of their mastery in the use of language. They have been acutely, sometimes passionately, aware of the significance of words. They have known that success lay not in the words them- selves, but in the use of them, in the ability to instill into them the power of vehemence, or restraint, of beauty, melody, and feeling. As we act out our parts on the stages of school and life, may we realize that every little movement has a meaning all its own in the moulding of character for ourselves, and ln letting others know what kind of person we are now ---- and very likely will be through the years, and on the stage of the world. 10 Mr. Malcolm Redmore Mr. George Bligh Mr. Clifford Bentley Elementary Supervisor Vice Principal Principal ADMINISTRATIO Hersee Landel Business Manager Mrs. Marjorie Hillman Secretary 11 Row 1 Mr. White, Guidance Counselor: Mr. Bates, Languag'es: Mr. Coppola, Social Studies: Mr. Denault, Commercial Row 2 Miss Heimerl, Commercial: Mr. Derner, Mathematics-Science: Mrs. Klock, Science SENIOR HIGH G ff f . 61541: Vg f fig i f , ' h f' lf XN?l1,l,1'! x Q X I ' 5 -ffl jf' f 1 X ' ' f 5 :fx f : X 1 : ENB 1 9'nS'g?

Taking the leads in the production,tmy assumed their many responsibilities and followed their opportunities. The curtain went up on Act I, scene 1, a successful football dance held in the newelement- ary gymnasium in September. A succeeding scene was the roller-skating party in Olcott. The sen- ior play, A Murder Has Been Arranged ,by Emlyn Williams, showed the excellent dramatic ability of members of the class. The seniors are indebted to the Lockport Felt Mill for the most generous check of S500 given in lieu of the profit which would have been gained from serving the annual banquet. This banquet was omitted this year. The class also received a large amount of money from the individual student pictures that were sold. Act II began the 2nd semester with pre- parations for the Senior Revue, which depicted various experiences of the class throughout the ,years in skit form. The revue gave everyone a chance to work and have fun together. A spaghetti dinner was served in the school cafeteria before the Wilson basketball game and the class gave a party to the Juniors in March. The closing act consisted of class night, at which they reminisced over bygone years together, the solemn service of baccalaureate, and finally the long-awaited commencement. The epilogue was the trip to New York City which had been planned and anticipated for two years. 18 Barbara Anmerman Business Intramurals 1 Dramatic Club Girls' Chorus Century Staff 2 l,3,4 3,4 Barbara Library Club l,2,3,4 Class Play 3 Cheerleader 1 William Brado Business Track 3,4 Football 1,2,3,4 Basketball 1,2,3,4 Baseball l,2,3,4 3,4 Varsity Club Boys' Chorus Class Play 3 Sextet 2 Merit Roll 3, Volleyball 2 3 4 Outstanding Oaisiny Athlete 3 Class Officer l,2,3,4 Advisory Board 2,3,4 Boys' State 3 William 4 1 I954 Ruth Bruning Science Intramurals 1 Merit Roll 1, Dramatic Club Girls' Chorus Radio Program Century Staff Newspaper 3 Refereeing 4 Cheerleader 2 19 l2l3l4 2,3,4 2 1,2,3 2 3,4 .3.4 ,4 NOINS Norma Bixler BUSIHBSS Intramurals 1 Merit Roll 1, Girls' Chorus Newspaper Sta Library Club Speaking Cont Ruth 2,3,4 3,4 ff 4 1,2,3,4 est 3 Jacqueline Bush Science and Art Intramurals 1,2,4 Merit Roll 3 Honor Roll 1,2 Dramatic Club 3 Girls' Chorus l,2,3,4 Radio Program 3 Century Staff 3,4 Library Club l,2,3,4 Soccer 4 Class Play 4 NYSSMA 3 Sextet 2 Volleyball 2 Art Club 2 Jacqueline SENIORS Business A Intramurals 1,2,3,4 .

JU IOR PLAY The first play given by the Class of '54 was the three-act comedy, HA Mind of Her OwnH,by Anne Ferring Weatherly. It was presented under the direction of Miss Mary McBrien, April 24 and 25. The plot of the play is concerned with teen-age Bunny Bartlett. Being easily influenced by the actions of others and not acting her age, Bunny became quite involved in a situation which almost caused her to lose her boyfriend Steve. Jessica, her sophisticated friend, came to spend a few weeks at the Bartlett cottage and seized the opportunityto take Steve from her. Unknowingly, Bunny was taken in by her smooth talk and practically gave Steveto her. Bunny's brother and sister disliked Jessica and planned a trap for her so that she'd become angry and go home. Unfortunately, Mrs. Phelps, who was there to transact business with Mr. Bartlett, fell into the trap and became very angry. On Stunt Night Bunny realized what Jessica was doing to her and Steve. Jessica left for home right away. A happy endingwas achieved when Steve and Bunny resumed their friendship, this time for life, and Bunny determinedly announced that she had HA Mind of Her Own.N Seated M.

The theater had been closed for repairs, but Sir Charles Jasper planned to give a party on the stage in celebration of his fiftieth birthday at which time he was to receive an inheritance. On the eve of his birthday Sir Charles was murdered by a distant rela- tive, Maurice Mullins. Finally, the murderer was exposed as the curtain went down on the final act.

This year athletics were very important to the students. The girls participated in intramurals and play days. Theboys organized basketball and baseball teams which played other schools. The various groups put on displays in their homerooms for the other classes. Some of them were on new and old ways of fighting, animals, rocks, and fossils. In one social studies class a U.N. General Assembly was formed. They had a chairman,and each student represented a country.They discussedproblems Pals of the world and how they were affected by these problems. Many students took part in assemblies throughout the year. These events will help prepare good actors and actresses for our stage and improve our productions.

Kroppg ASEB LL Although the number of wins was not too impressive, Coach Joseph Donovan's 1953 team felt it had a good season. In the final game with Lewistcn-Porter the Blue and White had its big chance for league honors, until Lewiston rallied for the win. Charles Porter was the leading hitter for the season with a .393 batting average. The '54 team will miss McDonough, Noon, Ascher, Chamberlin, Obermiller, Strong, and Vincent. This year's team will have much new and unseasoned material, but with a few breaks and a great deal of practice they should provide real competition for the other members of the Niagara Orleans league.

Of the first seven games the blue and white lost 5 and won 2. N.C.S. was sparked not only by one man but by all five members of the starting team,who in turn were backed by a strong bench. In the second half of the season they won 5 and lost 2. The team was always in the game fighting. They never gave up until the final buzzer sounded. The season's highlight was beating the Lockport Lions twice. Next year's prospects are very good despite the loss of five seniors.

It is from the farm clubs that the stars of future years arise. A look at the record of this year's J.V. team shows little in the way of victory to anyone who judges a team by its wins and losses. However, the J. V. team this year has gained invaluable experience, and if the participants are followed through their next few years of competition, you will see many of them in the lineups of the varsity f squads. 1 1 2 Y 7 qwxwe 11,7 Z ,r,,-,,,,.,.,,,,, 75 .

DiTul1io GIRLS' ATHLETIC COUNCIL The Girls' Athletic Council, under the capable leadership of Miss Jane Willimas, enjoyed a year of considerable growth and development. Two girls from each class, 7-12, were selected by class vote on the basis of character, leadership, scholarship, and service to the school. The year's activities began with an informal initiation for the new members. The successof the nSock Hopn added greatly to the funds of the organ- ization. Refreshments were sold at basketball games. The G.A.C. also sold girls' shorts for gym classes. The Council sponsored playdays in soccer and softball in which var- ious schools participated. One playday was held for the girls of our own school only. Awards were given by the council,ln the achievement assemb1y,to girls who participated in extramurals and attained certain standards. First year awards are felt block lettersgsecond year, gold pins: third year, chenille letters, fourth year, necklaces.

The club, which was organized last year, is composed of those boys who have earned their letter in a varsity sport. During the basketball assembly the senior members received their treasured Varsity Club jackets. These seniors are William Brado, Thomas Kaczor, Lee Wilson, Malcolm Pettit, Roger Strong, and Richard Lute. The club introduced the idea of selling gym uniforms to all senior high and junior high classes. This helped bring about a better appearance and uniformity in gym classes. The most successful accomplishment of the club was the presentation of the Second Annual Sports Nite held after the basketball season ended. Officers of the Varsity Club this year were William Brado, president: Donald Klumpp, vice president: Thomas Kaczor, treasurer, and William Rutland, secretary. 80 P0 ff, 1 35' 0 40: ffl' Iv fsc 4 I LZi..jk1 if L .M I u 9 jawn' ii, f'X I ni- .J ACTIVITIES 1 Row 1 S.
