Maureen Davis As the one who has done the most for Onteora Central School, we nominate Mr. Reginald R. Bennett: He has worked with the parents and teachers of the surrounding areas for twelve years as District Superintendent; He was one of the prime movers of this centralization; His interest in us has never diminished; He has a special niche in all our hearts; It is therefore with deep appreciation, Mr. Bennett, that we dedicate this, our first yearbook, to you. BECAUSE f u ka r k T ncs. Although Mr. rJemingnas only been associated with Onteora as Assistant Prin- cipal for a few months, successfully met every Elementary wing, under has functioned smoothly he has already I situation. The his supervision, and improved rapidly. His jolly and amiable manner has won him the confidence and friendship of 1 those at Onteora. W 51] It ls Onlv d °eyond fL °0 . Lj 9 CtJrr'Culum ■ ”4 Of Kj °f his ££ • nf: far V«IV� Ctsnu a. JSauMrru We welcome back Mr. John Moehle who along with Mr. Bennett was one of the early leaders in the movement for centralization. Now that the dream has been realized, he has returned to Onteora as Supervising Principal to guide our school in its further development. His friendly spirit, ready wit and easy manner have endeared him to the students and faculty as well. His steadfast loyalty to Onteora, and his devotion to democratic principles have already strengthened our school organization. He is a wise administrator with a keen sense of justice, a dash of mercy and a true compassion for human frailty. ecently I spoke before a well known civic organization. During my talk, I was critical of our edu- cational objectives and methods and most critical of some of the products of our public schools. Following my talk, I was asked the following question by a member of the audience: What is your definition of a well educated person? This is a tough question. Here is my answer in the hope that it may be of some value to you as you will soon be graduated from high school. My definition of a well educated person is, A person who can go any place in the world at any time, under any circumstances and make a satisfactory adjustment to that situation, be at ease, be happy, and be accepted. With this definition as a guide, I ask you, Do you know many well educated persons? It is obvious that few high school graduates qualify. Graduates of the public schools today are receiving what should rightly be called formal schooling . This term implies a knowledge of the basic subjects, sometimes known as the 3R's. Along with these, some vocational and occupational train- ing has been added and a number of frills. Unfortunately, many persons today think of an educated person as one who has acquired a high degree of formal schooling. In many cases, ver- bal glibness is accepted as a substitute for in- telligence and education. Now that you are about to be graduated from school, it is necessary that you look forward to furthering your education. In continuing your edu- cation you should develop: An alert response to suggestion. A reasonable amount of the love of power. A deep respect for individual rights. A sense of tolerance and fair play. A spark of romance and daydreaming. A spirit of adventure. A strong sense of curiosity. A balanced sense of humor. An attitude that failure is a normal event. If you develop these personality characteristics to a marked degree, you can be a man or woman who leads a happy and useful every-day life. These can help you to be of service to others. Develop these and you will be providing the means to an admirable end. u Glenford Horn Economics Homemaking Club 3-4; Service Club 4; Assistant 4-H Leader 4. Glenford Industrial F.F.A. 3-4.

I am now attending a 20th reunion of the class of 1954 of Onteora Central School. Today I stumbled over what may be described as a time capsule, I picked it up rather gingerly and following the directions carefully I opened it. Suddenly, time disappeared, my mind lost consciousness, and then returned to reality. I found myself amidst a group of chattering people, my fellow classmates of 1954. Gene Whiting is one of the happiest hotrods'1 in his thriving Used Car and Junk business. He furnishes the cars for Dick Shultis who is a racing champion at the Indianapolis Speedway. Ollie Crawford soups up the motors for Dick. Les Lawrence is busy working on a new model of a sports car. He won first prize last year at the annual Automobile show in New York. Al Parsons is Macy's best attraction as he sleeps on a mattress in a window display. The critics say that Bill Frankie is a sure hit in the new stage version of Hamlet. Les Foster is one of the wealthiest members of the class. He never married. He still hasn't cropped his gorgeous locks. Pizza aroma from the cafeteria? Since Tony Minervini became manager, the joint's been jumping . Ingrid Allermann was chosen Mrs. America of 1965. It seems that Gentlemen still prefer Blondes. Dan Purfield is most distinguished in his role as president of the Security Council. He attributes his success to the Problems of Democracy Class. Eileen Donahue is his secretary. Ralph Elefant, the editor of the new Phoenicia Gazette, received his training in the days of the mimeographed Onteora Echo . Frank Davis, the perennial bachelor, is very happily married and all the children have bright red hair. The Chilian embassy is warming up since Mary Osborne was appointed U. S. Ambassador. Shades of the old Spanish Class! Ray Singer, the famed skiing photographer, is recuperating from a bad leg. Taking pictures of the Olympics, he forgot his skis. Joe Anderson has flown here from his large wheat farm out west. There's money in them thar hills! The Queen Mary's admiral Marty Warnes is sporting those ocean blues, and Ernie Beesmer and Natty Juliano are quite handsome in their uniform of a jet ace. The private investigator, Chuck Craig, just broke up the biggest crime syndicate in the city of New York. The U. S. has a new athletic star. Ronnie Beadle won a smashing victory against the world's top running champions at this year's Olympic meet. Ursula Baum is now the premiere danseuse of a famed ballet company. Paul Alexander is pro- tecting the woods of Phoenicia as a forest ranger. Bill Heick is a contender for this year's middle- weight championship. The most talked-about artist in Montmartre is Max Degener. He returns soon to the U. S. for another exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art. Remember when Margaret Hal- stead won that prize in the English essay contest? This was the first step in her career as a novelist. Betsy Wagenfohr is the proud owner of the great- great-grandson of Native Dancer. The national $10,000 prize for a new cake mix was awarded to Marlene Howland. Kay Alexander is a receptionist for one of the top travel agencies. Shirley Merwin is secretary to an important executive. Joan Walder's fingers are still as flexible. She has a position in the Secretariat of the United Nations. Roy Hoffman has designed a new space ship. Ed Sedlmeier is a candidate for the presidency but at the time of going to press, no results had been announced. Remember John Valand of the smooth manners? He is a good-will ambassador to Russia. Joan Warnes knows all the celebrities because of her entertaining variety show on tele- vision. She is the best mistress of ceremonies in the business. Aledra Good's boss is John R. Powers. Very active in national church work is Joan Watson. Bill Smith’s favorite sport is still fishing. He writes for Field and Stream.' Ruth Townsend is exerting her influence in her own quiet way, taking care of her wonderful family. That strong silent man, Fred Kurtz, is county sheriff. Eileen Lockwood is a buyer at Sak's Fifth Avenue. Cornell University has just added Roy Neuer to its faculty as professor of science. Nancy Thompson glamorizes the Halls of Justice in her role of a court stenographer. Pat Staiger teaches Driver Education at Onteora and Doug Merwin owns the company that prints The Album. Lena Forlini runs a prosperous Lonely Hearts club and Joan Van De Bogart is the first woman Justice of the Peace, specializing in traffic violations and mar- riages. My time capsule has now dissolved and it is 1954 again. Oh yes, there is one more prophecy, that of a new star on the horizon, the class of 1955.

SENIOR WILL e, 1 e, the class of 1954 of the Onteora Central School of the Town of Olive, County of Ulster and State of New York being of sound mind, do make, publish and declare this to be our Last Will and Testament. 1. The President directs that his bruised and worn gavel be used with care. 2. The Treasurer bequeaths one broken piggy bank to the Junior class treasurer. The Senior members of the chorus leave a package of bird seed to next year's members. The Honor Society directs that all vacancies on the honor roll be filled by those who study on basketball nights. We, the Senior class, bequeath unto Mrs. Wagenfohr an elastic deadline for the yearbook. To Miss Davis— How to Teach French in Five Easy Lessons. To Mr. Shekitka—a life-time supply of coke. To Mr. Stahl—a brand new abacus board. To Mr. Viglielmo—new whiskers for his dramatic roles. To Mr. Thornell—an empty stage and some canned hams. To Mr. Andreone—An edition of jokes for beginners. To the Juniors—for their sole use, the sacred portals of the front entrance. To the Juniors—our orchestra seats in the auditorium. To the Junior girls—their Junior boys. To the new driver training class—one slightly worn driver training car. The Senior members of the basketball squad leave Mr. Witko— be- witched, bothered and bewildered. The Senior class leaves Miss Donovan—exhausted. We leave our sincere thanks to the entire faculty and a bottle of aspirin for their headaches. We leave to the administration our gratitude and appreciation. We leave Onteora—with regret. In witness whereof, we have hereunto affixed our seal, this fifteenth day of June, in the year Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-four. 3. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.

The Onteora Chapter of the National Honor Society received its charter in 1953. The eight charter members were inducted by the members of the Kingston chapter at an impressive candlelight ceremony in the auditorium. In the fall of 1953. two new members were inducted to fill the vacancies left by Paul Holland and Sondra Sickler. The Honor Society creates enthusiasm for scholarship, for the development of personal and leadership ability, and for rendering service to the community. This year the Society formulated Onteora s Welcome Kit which explains to the parents of new students the organization of Onteora and the opportunities available here. The handbook which will be available in September was the other project for the year. Miss Davis is chairman of the faculty advisory committee composed of Miss Donovan.

The main objective of the Student Council is to develop a sense of loyalty and good citizenship. They strive to attain a close harmony among students, faculty and administration. The Student Council is composed of representatives elected from each homeroom, the presidents of each class and Mr. Frank Andreone, the faculty advisor. The Council introduced the Marshall system to Onteora and has been assisting the administration in making plans for a student lounge. The members participated actively in the Duso League Student Council program for elimination of racial discrimination in Washington. D. C.

JUNIOR AFFRENTICES of the ALBUM Onteora's first yearbook, the Album , was compiled by a capable, hard-working staff comprised of Senior and Junior class members under the supervision of Mr. Bernard Stahl, Miss Maureen Davis, and Mrs. Katherine Wagenfohr. In order to maintain an experienced staff for each year, a system was established whereby a group of Junior appren- tices was chosen by their class and approved by the faculty advisors. By working with the Senior staff these students gained valuable experience in the production of the book and will therefore be fully prepared for the job next year. Several visits to the publishing plant allowed the staff to see the actual processing of their book. The ECHO STAFF Front Row, loft to right: K. Donovan (Advisor), C. Draper, J. Warnes. M.

In a democratic government such as our own, freedom of the press is not only recognized by national standards, but by the state schools as well. Once a month the Echo” staff makes use of this privilege with an interesting and informative publication concerning school life in every phase. You will find the latest school news in classroom quips, social activities and many other timely topics. Under the leadership of Miss Donovan, the paper is staffed entirely by students.

The Student Council initiated the system of Marshalls in order to maintain dis- cipline in the hallways during the passing of classes. At assemblies they act as ushers to help seat the various classes quickly and without confusion. Their first year has been a successful one and they have rendered a great service to Onteora. 31 JUNIOR CLASS Front tow. left to right: C. Bremer, N. Thompson. L. Hummel. J. Collins, V. Thompson, K.

The class consisting of forty-five members has undertaken many interesting projects to raise money for their Senior trip. Led by capable officers and advisors, they hod two successful bake sales during their Sophomore year. In their Junior year they presented the annual Christmas Prom where soft lights and colorful decorations created a pre- holiday otmosphere. During the month of May the Junior and Senior class combined to present the Junior and Senior Prom. Much cooperation ond planning mode the Prom so successful. The choosing of a class ring stirred up interest in the minds of many. The original Indian crest was picked last year by the first Junior class of Onteora. ond the some ring is being featured this year in many colors. The Junior class looks forword to a profitable and successful year next term, and if their dream comes true, next Easter will see them spending their vacation in Washington.

The officers, with the help of a cooperative group of students and their advisor, Mr. Stahl, earned out the schedule of events efficiently. The Winter Wonderland dance held on December 7 was very well attended and displayed the capability of the class in producing entertainment and adding funds to their treasury. The Pineapple Prom was really the first activity of the Sophomores. We were still Freshmen when we held this dance on April 17. 1953. We are looking forward to another eventful year as Juniors. President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer [■ Richard Smith Caroline Draper Nancy Ostrander Eric Andersen The Freshman class, with the help of their advisors. Miss Davis and Mr. Shekitka, have had lots of fun this year. The Halloween Hop on October 30 was the first dance of the new school year and drew a large crowd. In December we packed two Christmas baskets for Mrs. Osborne to distribute to needy families. We hope that the giving of Christmas baskets may become a tradition for every class at Onteora. Because of the success of our first dance we sponsored the Irish Jamboree on March 12. Everyone who attended the dance was required to wear green or pay the penalty. It was truly a night for the Irish! We enjoyed a wonderful class picnic in the late spring to climax our activities. DRAMATICS CLUB Front Row, left to right: D. Purfield, C. Beesmer, J. Costa, A.

They were busy rehearsing for the Junior-Senior play, The Saturday Evening Ghost . Once the cast was chosen the wheels of production began rapidly to revolve. Through the untiring perseverance of Mr. Thornell, the play was presented before two appreciative audiences with two different casts each night. At one of the first meetings they selected this year’s officers: President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer . Historian . . . . . Dick Smith .. Roy Hoffman Kay Montiforte . Kevin Purfield . Martha Young PROJECTION CLUB This club consists of 25 students in grades nine through twelve. Under the careful supervision of Mr. Carey, the club takes care of the operation of all visual aids equipment, the projectors, recorders, and the projection booth in the auditorium. All the equipment is transported to and from the designated place by the students.

With the guidance of the Physical Edu- cation teachers, the members work to perfect the gymnastic stunts learned in class and are also class assistants. These assistants, during their free periods, help the coaches with the elementary gym classes. In addition to the service that they render to their fellow students, this is an educational experience for the members. Under the supervision of Miss Mary Gormley. school librarian, this library staff has gained much experience in library work and has also served their fellow stu- dents and teachers. The members of this group stamp and check books at the library desk. They also help in the workroom pasting pockets in books and getting them ready for the shelves.

A. county meet- ing the Service Club waited on tables. The club is also available to help teachers with any special project. This club, under the guidance of Mrs. Hunt and later Miss Stein, has had a most successful first year.

Joseph Anderson The Future Farmers of America has one moin purpose, and that is to acquaint its members with the fundamentals of farming, forestry, and the study of soil. The Onteora members have worked eagerly toward this goal. Under Mr. Sparber's capable direction, they have participated in various activities which range from the planting of trees to the sponsoring of movies. The members have obtained invaluable knowledge through this organization and it is truly a hatchery for our future American farmers. Although it is still in its infant stage, the Onteora 4-H Club is steadily proving itself as a group which is an influential factor in the health and occupations of its youthful members. The boys are being taught such subjects as gardening and poultry raising. Canning and flower growing are included in the program for the girls. The general purpose of this organization is to provide an understanding of such subjects as farming and personal health. The Onteora members with the help of their advisor Mrs. Hunt, are well on the way toward achieving these goals.

SECRETARIAL CLUB An Industrial Arts Personnel Organiza- tion exists in each of the Industrial Arts classes. It is an organization which in a democratic way establishes the rules, regulations and policy which govern the operation of each industrial arts class. The officers in each class act in an administrative capacity coordinating all operations of the organization. The Industrial Arts Personnel Organization Officers Club consists of the officers from each of the industrial arts classes. Chief Superintendent ... Natty Juliano Chief Safety Engineer .... Robert Shultis Chief Shop Clerk .........Martin Rotella The Secretarial Club was initiated by Mr. Stahl for secretarial students and is designed to orientate them to office work. They perform office duties for the school and for the teachers. They learn to operate standard and electric type- writers, adding machines, calculators, mimeograph and ditto machines. Visits to business offices are part of their agenda. This not only acquaints them with the world of work but aids them in getting a position after graduation.

OUTING CLUB The Outing Club was organized with the assistance of Mrs. Paul Knox and Mr. Andrew Shekitka. 130 interested stu- dents attended the first meeting. The purpose of this organization is to acquaint the students of Onteora with the many sports that can be enjoyed safely and comfortably. It is also intended that through the Outing Club the students of Onteora will be better prepared to enjoy the facilities of this Catskill Mountain playground. The agenda for the year includes swimming, hunting, roller skating, bowling, square dancing, camping, horseback riding, sleigh rides and hay rides. On guard! is the command as mem- bers of the Fencing Club raise their foils and take their positions in front of their opponents. With the able assistance of Mr. Wheeler the Fencing Club has taken root at Onteora. At the club meetings held on Tuesday and Wednesday of each week members have learned the fundamentals of this sport and have taken part in various matches. Front Row. left to right: R. Eignor, W.

Once again this year all eyes turned to admire the twirlers when they paraded on Memorial Day with the band. A group of Junior High School students were also trained to replace those girls who will soon graduate. Captain.................Kathleen Stella Co-Captains ............ Peggy Stevens.

The duty of the squad «s to lead cheers at all games in order to keep the spirit alive and show the team that the students are backing them. This year the group introduced several new ideas for cheers and formations and due to their fine work they helped raise the banner of Scarlet and Gray.

This years Varsity consisted of only six players from last year’s team. The remaining six were former Junior Varsity players. The schools defeated by Onteora were Kerhonkson, Tri-Valley. Fieischmanns and St. Mary s of Hudson. The jump shots, developed by forwards Louis Bolter and Ronald Locke accompanied by Albert Parsons, pivot man. and Leslie Foster, also a forward, led the team to victory. Martin Warnes and Martin Rotella, the speedy guards, and their substitutes Conrad Bremer, Robert Krein and Elbert Harrison contributed to the team's effective offense and defense by their smooth handling of the ball. Each year the Varsity challenges the Faculty, consisting of the coaches and other talented members of the administration. The first game was played for a school assembly and the second for the Polio Benefit. All proceeds were turned over to this fund. Chester Fox. a member of the N.B.A.A.. contributed his services and officiated at the games with no charge. Both games were won by the Varsity. Junior Varsity Raymond Shultis and Robert Shultis. veteran Junior Varsity players, have been included in the line-up again this year, along with many newcomers. George Jocelyn, with his one hand set shot and other offensive weapons has been a great asset to the team. The starting five. Eric Andersen. Joseph Burke and Richard Smith, along with Raymond and George have led the team to many victories. Among these are Korhonkson. Tri-Valley. Margaretville. Fieischmanns and Highland. Other members of the squad who were always ready, willing, and able were Robert Hall, George Lockwood. Oliver Moore. Robert Shultis, Edwin Swenson, and Howard Wendler. Front Row. loft to right: E.

Greenville, and Gilboa. In Section 9 competition Onteora finished 2nd behind Tappan Zee. Louis Bolter, the winner of the Section 9 class C race, was selected to run on the Section 9 team in the State Championships. Front Row. laft to right: Martin Rotella. Raymond Shultis.

The Onteora 1953 TRACK TEAM showed its true colors in the Ulster County Meet at New Paltz. Gene Whit- ing. our high jumper, broke the record with a spectacular five foot six inch jump. Natty Juhano. master of the shot put. took second place in his event. Our long-legged Sophomore. Glen Glass, came up with third place in the mile run. At the Hudson Valley Relays the team took second place in the mile run, third in the Freshman Relay and fourth in the Medley. Baseball Veterans of ’53 Season -----j Onteora in its first season of playing inter-scholastic baseball turned in a very creditable performance. Out- standing victories were scored over Fleischmanns. Kerhonkson. Tri-Valley and Margaretville. Since the entire team is slated to return this spring they are looking forward to plenty of action again this year. Perhaps the high point of the past season was reached in the last game when Bunky Harrison chalked up 14 strike outs while limiting Kerhonkson to only 3 hits. Onteora won the game by a score of 4-3. Ollie Crawford, the other half of the pitching staff, turned in several fine pitching jobs and is also looked to for more of the same action this Front tow. left to right: M. Rotella. O. Crawford. A.

Highland. Kingston, bnrty. Margaretville. and Woodstock. M -t of the games were close during the first half. The lack of height seem- ed to be a hindrance to the boys as the games continued into the second half. The most valuable player has been Dick Murphy, both from the standpoint of shooting and also controlling the backboard against boys much taller than he. The enthusiasm of the team was high, and the players gamed valuable experience for their future career in basketball. Front tow, left to right: T. McCrosson, J. Bachor. J, Frankie, G. Dunkel. H.

The Onteoro School Band is one of the most important groups in school. The students devoted a great deal of their time this year to practicing and the results were worthy of their efforts. Boys and girls of the Elementary school were also instructed so that they would fill in the immediate vacancies caused by graduating Seniors. The students receive free musical instruction and enjoy their participation in the playing of good music. The band has furnished music for the school assembly programs and has performed for various organizations which make use of the school facilities for their programs. DANCE BAND The Onteora Dance Band was organized this year under Mr. Simon's leadership. The group includes 5 saxophones, 4 trumpets, I trombone. 1 baritone. 1 brass, piano, accordian and drums. The band meets every Friday during activity period and every Tuesday at a different time. Many of the members were inexperienced but the enthusiasm of their fellow musicians and the instruction they received soon improved their playing. They are now rehearsing to play for a school dance to be held in the gym this spring. Front Row, left to right: L. Marlatt, N. Ostrander. J. Frischberg, R. Rossmann. E. Swenson, D. Muhlich, K.

Mrs Osborne, our school nurse, is always ready to extend a helping hand to the students at Onteora. Whether sick, home- sick or needy in any way, the health office is the place to visit. Her worm and friendly spirit is familiar to everyone and she has been a friend to all at one time or another. Mrs, Hazel Osborne ELEMENTARY ART CLASSES HEALTH SERVICES Mrs. Edna Quick has been teaching Onteora’s grade school art classes since late last fall, due to the illness of Mrs. Betsey Knox Her first through eight grades accomplished their two main projects for the year. They designed many cards for holidays and special occasions and they entered a variety of colorful posters in the Ulster County Health Association contest. Vocal music in Onteora is a program of musical ex- perience and activities rather than one of stereotyped music lessons. Its purpose is to introduce the art of music itself as a constructive influence which will enrich the lives of these children both now and in the future; to develop in each child an eagerness for music, and a growing understanding of it. In the vocal music room, children from grades one through eight participate in one or more of the following musical activities during classes: 1—singing. 2—expressive bodily movement and dramatization, 3—listening. A— imaginative and creative expression, and, 5—some form of reading or notation. These various mediums of vocal music afford the oppor- tunity and means of successfully reaching the needs and desires of every child.

They constructed Indian figures, houses, canoes, animals, weapons and masks. Room 117 had a similar project on the Middle Atlantic States. All the students enjoyed lunching with Mr. Moehle during November. They all displayed much school spirit at the faculty basketball game, when they were led by their own cheerleaders and shouted their own cheers.

Room 116 planned, wrote and published their own magazine Onteora Times as an English project. In Room 118. while studying Egypt, the committees dressed dolls in Egyptian costumes and painted murals.

At Thanksgiving their rooms reflected a harvest theme with horns of plenty and corn shucks. Christmas was probably the most decorative of all seasons.

Learning to read and write took up a good portion of their school day but they also learned the art of finger painting and work with paper mache. Halloween was a wonderful day as everyone marched down the hall in costumes to go to the auditorium. In the spring the three first grade rooms had much fun in preparing their assembly program for the elementary wing. FIRST GRADE There were several topics of conversation in the second grade this past year. Plans were made for a health project and this included an assembly program about Good Health rules. Room 106 made canisters, sachet pillows and calendars for Christmas gifts. Their nature corner was well stocked during the year by frequent field trips. Room 107 made nature trips and field trips to the Post Office and Catskill Game Farm. Front Row. lift to right: D. Rowe. G. Byron. T. Alexander. A. Shckitka P. Van de Bogart. A. North. P. Rose, L.

Mrs. McGloughlin (teacher). The kindergarten has had a busy year. There were parties on all holidays and monthly parties to honor those whose birthdays were during that month. The teachers have made visits to most of the children's homes and the parents have responded by visiting the school room. The children enjoyed many play and work activities. They were especially fond of their rhythmic activities and the rhythm band period with Mr. Simon. ctWltC C KCKt Compliments A FRIEND Compliments HUPPERT'S PORK STORE 59 NORTH FRONT ST. KINGSTON. N.
