FLORENCE McDOUGALL a teacher beloved and esteemed, whose personality has been a strong and helpful influence to us cluring our school days and whose inspiration will go with us thru all the years to come. ! DAN AGNE. For thirty-one years Dan Agne has been connected with Oneicla's public schools. ln August, l905, he was appointed janitor of Elizabeth Street School and then was transferred to the Senior High School on Main Street in l9l4. ln the spring of I928, when the new Senior High School on Elizabeth Street was opened, Mr. Agne became head janitor. Oneida High School students have thought of Dan as their friend for many years. Without him, Oneida High will not be quite the same. The Class of l936 wishes to express for the student body their sincere appreciation and the hope that Dan will enjoy his new leisure. 5 ' , iw,-.X 3 ,V ' , Page Six THE ONEIDAN To the Class of 1936 Rene' Descartes, a French scientist of the early seven- teenth century, refused to accept the accumulated beliefs and superstitions of his time but accepted only the truths which could be proved. The fundamental fact which proved to him his own existence as a human being was expressed by him as follows: Cogito, ergo sum. I think, therefore, I am. That statement might well be taken as a test of education. Do you think? What do you think? What should you think? We know to how great an extent in our times thinking is being done for us. The newspaper syndicates, newsreel and news commentators, and organized political and economic progress by dissemination of certain ideas make us believe tvhat they want us to believe unless we are continually look- ing behind the news to find whence it comes and whether it is propaganda or truth. Freedom of thought is being attacked all over the world by censorship. Even in our own country some of the states are passing loyalty oath laws requiring teachers and students to take oaths of allegiance to state and federal constitutions, and in our national capital it has been against the law dur- ing the past year for a teacher even to mention communism. Such legislation seems hardly consistent with American prin- ciples of freedom of speech and press. Education should en- courage thinking and not suppress it. There has never been a time in our history when think- ing citizens have been more needed to understand and help solve the thorny problems of domestic and international affairs. To be sure, we cannot add one cubit to our stature by taking thought, but we can add many cubits to our mental stature. Let the proof of the fact that we have lived be the ability to say as did Descartes, Cogito, ergo sum. -ZORAIDA E. WEEKS, Class Adviser. Education , Education and learning are often referred to as synony- mous terms, when in reality they may be entirely different from one another. There are many learned people who are far from being educated. Because an individual is able to read Greek and Latin, or perhaps, memorize the logarithm table to seven decimal places, is no sign that he is educated. He may even be able to recite all the important events in modern history and quote Shakespeare by the hour and still not be educated. On the other ha.nd, there are men who have never crossed the threshold of a college door, men who have no concrete knowledge of what we term the essentials, who are truly educated. They are educated because they are able to successfully live with their fellow man in a complex environ- ment. They are educated because they have a breadth of vision which enables them to view all situations with a proper perspective to see the problem as a whole, and not become annoyed and fretful about the insignificant, petty trifles which lurk about every project of real magnitude. They are educated because they have cultivated a poise and stability of character which gives them a calmness similar to that of a lake of great depth or a massive mountain peak which towers toward the sky unchanged by storm, or calm. These are the people we seek out in times of trouble because their strength gives us courage and hcpe. Their well-balanced personalities afford a shelter to those of us who are easily disturbed about insignificant, imaginary, self- inducted problems. It is so easy to be small, to deal in petty personalities, to revel in biting sarcasm, to stoop to underhanded, unscrupulous methods of gain, to dabble with untruth all for a purpose. Even in the presence of learning, it is a mark of the un- educated. If our schools are to be the source from which our youth are to acquire strength of character and poise of personality, it is the duty of all in positions of authority to see to it that beyond the mere subject matter used as a means to an end, there must be kept in view as the ultimate objective ac- quisition of wisdom which means Education. -HOWARD F. KNAPP, Principal. THE ONEIDAN ...vynqggxyg-fgggggvvv-vrly,-3 V ,-nf 'rg'-my Page Seven History of the Class of 1936 Forsan et haec olin meminisse iuvabit, as Virgil once said, and for the benefit of the lesser intelligentsia, let us say this means that posterity will remember us by what we have done. The history of the class of 1936 is not unlike the parable of the sower of the seeds as it is related in the Bible. The members of the class are but seeds, carefully, painstakingly cared for by a scholarly faculty who trust that we are pre- pared to meet the respective fates life will bring. It was in June, 1933, that we were graduated from Oneida Junior High School, thrilled, of course, but most happy in the voyage that awaited us after boarding the ship of learning most sought, namely, High School. And so in September, 1933, we were admitted to Senior High School as unsophisticated Sophomores, thoroughly happy tho somewhat bewildered. Here we were a disor- ganized array, yet see what changes time has wrought and what accomplishments. As the school year went on we quickly accustomed ourselves to the ways of the high school students: the cornerstone of unity was laid: we built founda- tions on which we hope later to build enduringly. Devoting most of our time and energy to our studies and extra.-curricular activities, we passed by few unoccupied hours, though the school year was happily punctuated with several outstanding events-class elections, the Sophomore Party and various athletic events. The class election was carried off with no little hostility, but fortunately no blood was shed and the politicians triumphed. Bob Natoli became- our leader. Under his guidance, and with the able assistance of the other class officers, the class of 1936 made rapid progress. Before we knew it June exams were bearing down upon us-a hectic week of exams-vacation-and so ends the chapter of our first year. Junior year began! No longer did we gaze with awe upon the Seniors, in fact we even shared the coveted third Door with them. Of course, we discarded the green cloak of Sophomore mannerisms. Although we had not lost our enthusiahm for elections we were so pleased with Bob Natoli's administration that we again elected him president, and he and his co-workers again guided us through another notable year. The outstanding social event of the year. of course, was the Junior Prom. Committees were appointed for decora- tions and refreshments. Charming Betty Coons was elected queen. The various committees by hard work and effort succeeded in making the Prom a pleasant memory to us. The year fairly flew, and again came final exams. This time we tackled them with the air of veterans and bowled them over successfully. Seniors at last-we certainly were proud. Everyone felt better as Seniors, you know Senior privileges, etc. Again we elected Capable Bob Natoli as our class president. We shall always be most grateful for his devotion to our class organization. Betty Coons and Billy Rice were elected vice- president and secretary respectively. Rena Abbott, who was elected president of the Students' Association, is the first girl to hold this position in a number of years. We have found in her a most capable leader. We elected as our Council representative, Eddie Rice. We approached our studies carefully and with zeal know- ing that graduation depended upon our efforts. We planned an Amateur Show. It was well received and a great success. Then came the Senior Party, which, need- less to say, was carefully planned and the fruit of our labor was fun for all of us. Before the school year and our High School days came to an end we planned to put on a Senior Play entitled i'The Importance of Being Earnest, by Oscar Wilde. The participants devoted themselves diligently and we feel certain it was a success. The cast included: Marion Covell, Patricia Garvin, Ahlene Staudt, Minerva Wason, Don Baird, George Cary, Enoch Jones, Francis Lomery and William Nixdorf. Robert Natoli is president of the Dramatic Club. Many of the musically inclined members of the class have rendered their services to the school by being members of the Orches- tra. Those members of the class who are interested in ath- letics have, by their participation on the school teams, helped to maintain this source of pleasure for the school. Also in reviewing the history of the class it is most fitting to pay honor to the scholastic backbone of our class. We are proud, therefore, to inscribe herein the names of those honorary students of our class who have consistently earned and re- ceived Scholastic Awards every semester since they entered high school. Those students are: Virginia Conroy, Marion Covell, June Dygert, Shirley Knapp, Evelyn Morgan, Thelma Mowry, Ahlene Staudt, Jean Tibbitts, Veronica Viliano and Kenneth Kreps. Now a word to you underclassmen and future seniors- in anticipation of commencement that is so nearly upon us- It is worth all the hard work you give to your studies. Commencement exercises will be held June 24, followed by the Senior Ball. Shirley Knapp is Valedictorian and Eve- lyn Morgan is Salutatorian. We have selected for our class colors, old rose and silver. Our class motto is Carpe diem or Seize the opportunity, and with this motto before us we shall bid our last farewell to Oneida High School and may I add that though the spoken voice dies away, written records and achievements remain a monument for all eternity. -ISABELLE ANGELINO Class Historian Page Eight THE ONEIDAN CLASS POEM At morning, we started the climb. The distant peaks were clothed in mist, Their snow-capped crowns defied the clouds And shone arrogantly above. The cliffs were hidden, the crags unseen, We only saw the towering peaks, Now flaming with the glory Of the morn. At first, we tramped through meadows Wet with dew, the air heavy with fragrance of ficw'rs. The climb was slow and easy. When we reached the forest-we looked back. Behind us lay a splendid view, Green fields, plowed lands, white ribbons that were reads. We knew we would climb higher, but We thought this view the greatest ever seen, The timber land was cool and sweet: Pine needles crackled at our feet, But at times the way was hard, Steeper paths, but loftier trees. We stopped again at a clearing, And looked down at the way we had come. This time a river, threading its way among the fields Was added to our picture-our view was becoming broader. Once more we looked up and caught only a glimpse Of the peaks that were our goal, But we knew they were there and climbed on again, More forest-and cliffs this time. We're standing now at the timber line: Our view is more beautiful still Gems of tiny lakes of blue Have been added to our picture. We can see in the distance the towers of cities: We can look for miles around. The hill that seemed high at the start of the climb Are mere rolling lields below. Ours is the highest peak in the range. Above us stretch vast fields of snow, High cliffs, deep crags, and slippery paths, Below us-the beautiful view. When we start from here, the party divides: For some there is rope and a guide, For others, simply an alpinestock. They must find the trial for themselves But we hope to meet at the top sometime Before the sky is dark: We hope to be there when the rays of the sun Again set the peaks on fire. The top is blue and far away, It then will be close and bright. When the way is hard and the cliffs are high We will think of the view from the top. --SHIRLEY KNAPP.

Page Twelve THE ONEIDAN Advice to Juniors Dear Juniors: Realizing how much you are looking for- ward to this advice, we hope you you take it rightly and fol- low it successfully. TO THE JUNIORS: For the sake of the teachers, have some original ideas---not especially in spelling, because the recent Class filled that order. You'd better let the Senior Privileges rest for a time. Wilson Brink and DeLloyd Brooks had better get to- gether-- Wanna fly? asked Wilson. DeLloyd, Oh, Oh! Brink, Wait, I'll catch one for you. If Jean Eaton and Burton Harp want to learn about art they better go the Barber, To the Junior Girls: Start early to reap the best harvest. To the Junior Boys: Don't forget in this school that M. D. stands not for Doctor, but for Mark Dalton. To Dick Ritter, Ben Dillon, the Motorcycle Triplets, and all other fancy driving Juniors: When being arrested don't say you're a student, because Ignorance is no excuse. To Leah Sykes, Betty Mitchell, Lena Lumbrazo, and Rose Barbano: You had better apply early to avoid the rush if you want Mary Agan's and Dick Weaver's permits for morn- ing passes. ' Cavanaugh, Taylor, Risley, and Messiter: When you go dancing, be sure you bring 'em back alive. Ned Cumings-Being a senior isn't so hot until Miss Weeks takes you over the coals! You who become Seniors keep a tight hold on Iles lest he slip and not make it. By a little harmonizing the blond quartet namely, Jane Frier, Peg Durnin, Jean Eaton, and Bet Merrell with their brunette triplets, Jane Berical, Marge Iles and Marg: Dempsey will find new heights if they continue to do things with a bang. To the Juniors: Chase away the Ghost of the School Spirit and put the real thing in its place! Garv Maher, John Tuttle, Bill Carson, Doug Dodge, Joe Mammone, and John Patricia: If you'll work together and follow in the footsteps of Buysie or Barbano we'll be winn- ing next year. Stretch Elliot: You know the Reputation of the Castle. So keep it up. Vivian Youngs, Reva Davis, and Ed. Evans: Remember you are big people now. We advise you, Marian Fidell, to start early and train the school's vocal chords. The two WARRENS better guard their hearts, lest they take wings. Rees White should speculate a bit this summer in the paper line. It's better to give than to receive. Herb Linstruth: Win some letters or honors so that you can be distinguished from the other one. We would advise Warner Hodges to concentrate, and never forget that you get what you aim for. To Burt Evans: Don't get discouraged she'll be back next fall. To Jack Thorpe: Don't forget to find out who is Boss besides you. Dick Winters: Keep 'em as sweet as they are! fas she isb 'tGene, Hank, and Lyman: We can't advise patroniz- ing home industry because you know already, so .... To Jack Herring: It's best not to chew gum in typing. To the Juniors: If you keep sailing as you have been, you'll be as large a class as ours and as keen. QALMOSTJ. Juniors' Response Dear Seniors: In return for your most helpful advice, we, the Junior Class of 1936 feel that we can give you a few hints at this time. Lester Tiny? Merkling-Make up your mind before you graduate. Is it going to be Stone Street or Cottage Place? Marion Covell-Keep up the good work and you will soon rival Katherine Cornell and Helen Hayes. Francis Sovocool-What's wrong with the Oneida girls? Rena Abbott-We hope that some day there will be a woman president: in case there is, you'll have our votes. George Cary-Bequeath your great gift of argumentation to future seniors. I Adella Frier-Rome is a pretty nice place, isn't it?

Freshman Class News In September, 1936, approximately 130 boys and girls will enter Senior High School to H11 the vacant seats left by the sophomore class before them. We rather hesitate on leaving Junior High, for in our three years here, we have found many good friends in both the student body and the faculty. Nevertheless, we look forward to the coming three years in Senior High, and hope to make as many friends there. We will do our best to equal the high standings of those in our class. Some of the most promising are: Leota Cronin, Shirley Ott, Helen Cserny, Pauline Doran, Mary Harrington, John Behr, Kathryn Carmen, Robert Howd, Mary Davis, Betty Dawson, Ruth Fayne, Matilda Pfeifer, Barbara Tuttle, Edward Whalen, Anna Convertino, Jacquelyn Larkin, Alexandra Stefuza, Donald Cunningham, Mary A.

The Junior girls sold candy at the basketball games dur- ing the winter. The money earned in this way went toward the annual Prom. The Prom was held on May 22. The decorations of blue and yellow, with the same color ballons, looked beautiful un- der the cleverly arranged lights. The orchestra Walt Rip- Ieys' Collegiansu seemed to please everyone, and We hope that the Junior Prom of '36 will remain in the minds of many for a long time to come.

Four issues were produced and met with the approval of the student body. Each issue put out had a holiday theme. That is, each one came out just before a holiday, and the issue to a great tx- tent was based on that holiday. These holidays were: Thanksgiving, Christmas, Washington's Birthday and Easter. For social activities, this year the Dial had a picnic at Sylvan Beach. Page Thirty-four THE ONEIDAN W... ,..,.,..qu-mv-we Xl Base Ball Team lst Row-W. White, F. Dunn, R. Burr, F. Lomery, E.

Football With the school year coming to a close, we look back over the past athletic clashes between our school and others Our football team was very disappointing to its followers who although downcast supported the team throughout its dis- astrous season. In the opinion of this writer, next season will find that Oneida's football team will have returned to its status of former years. With the graduating of many of the veterans, Oneida will have young, inexperienced but eager candidates from which, Coach Duncan will find a foot- ball team that will live up to the expectation of its followers. LETTER MEN Wilgus, Barbano, Dodge, Mammone, Maher, White, Lom- ery, Leclau, Behr, Sorrentino, Iles, Mullen, Rockwell, B. Rgce, Manager. Basketball The 1935 Basketball team had a fairly successful season. They won eight games and lost seven. The team nad a very good start 'til January, when B. Rice and E. Iles were de- clared ineligible. For the rest of the season the team man- aged to break even. Oneida defeated Canastota in a series of three games which ended the season.
