■ -nf-T V JI I I I I I I I I . I I Joseph Billings To the one who has contributed as much to the welfare of the students as he has to the maintenance of our school, we,the Class of 1953,dedicate this year- book. It is our small thanks to him for the extra hours at school, his patience, and his everlasting willingness to help. Such pure unselfishness will never be forgotten; it has been an inspiration as well as an education to know him.

Only a few days ago I wrs get- ting ready for our class reun- ion. I had arrived here from Paris. I married a french artist, he paints houses. I arrived at £Id Forge, where we had decided to have our class reunion, about nine a,m, of June 22, 1963 The first person I saw was Elaine Gray, now Elaine Martin, driv- ing a station wagon loaded with children. I suppose this is why I didn't notice her at first. She slammed on the brakes and, with a child under each arm and several trailing behind, she jumped out of the car, bouncing over to greet me. Elaine had graduated from college and had married a doc- tor. w She's been a busy girl. Elaine checked her chil- dren at the nursery and we started out to find the rest of our classmates. Coming to- ward us we saw who we took to be Rip Van winkle, but turned out to be Darrell Legacy, He had just awakened from a ten year's.sleep. Now there were throe of us and we had to find the re- maining nine old grads. It wasn't long, however, before we saw Arliene King, first lady mayor of Oriskany Falls, walking toward us in an offi- cial manner. From what she told us, she had had suc- cessful career: In addition to her mayorally duties she had pursued chemistry as a hobby , so far having success- fully blown up three labora- tories. She is currently building her fourth in an old outhouse behind her home. We decided to divide into two groups to find the rest of the class. Rip, no I mean Darrell and I started in one direction and Arliene and Elaine in another Darrell and I had not gone far, how- ever, when we met Shirley Mininger, who is now a suc- cessful .Jooauty salon operator. The only snarl in her opera- tion, she told us, was the time she used her own formula for removing dandruff. It also removed hair. While we were still look- ing, we learned later that Arliene and Elaine had met Dick Rose, who is an officer in the United States Navy,com- ing down the street with twenty Waves-his recruits-be- hind him. The six of us met at four corners. As we stood there trying to decide where else we could look, Joan Jasek came driving up in one of Mr.Abrams old cars. We learned that she had become a doctor and had been successful so far. con- sidering that only one person has had a sponge left inside of him. Next on the list to be seen was Polly Lapree, the new United States ambassador to Russia. She reported to us that the conditions there were pretty bad. There is a large shortage of vodka. Tommy and Don came speed- ing up in a Chewy and Ford, respectively. It was apparent that they still argue aocut which is the better car. Each is in business for himself, operating a Chevrolet and Ford agency. They are having a race to see whether there will be more Fords or Chevrolets in town. V'e wore still standing there where we had met Don and Tom, wnen whom did we see, but car r res, mischievous Norma. has been successful in icy inimitable way. She's on tele'isicn as the replacement for 'larabelle of Howdy Doody. Nor.rnr made the eleventh and so row there was only one member of the class missing, Helen was missing,but not for long. She swooped down on us in her flying saucer just back from hex' latest exploit, a trip from the moon. ' In the ten years we had all traveled along many differ- ent.paths of life. Some of us had done what was prophesied and then again some tf us had not„ Now all twelve of us were together again like another day exactly ten years ago. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY How proud we were to enter high school, four years ago to become Freshmen. In spite of our mischievous behavior, per- haps aided some by the Soph- omores, we were very studious that first year in high. Within a month we elected our officers as President, Frank Jipson; Vice President.. Arliene King; Secretary, Joan Jasek; Treasurer, Shirley Min- inger; Student Council rep- resentative, Elaine Gray;New s- paper Reporter, Dick Rose; Ad- visor, Mr. Shearer. Our Sophomore year was much more profitable financial- ly. We still looked upon the day that we would become Sen- iors as a long way off, but time flew as we hopefully tried to make our bank account rise, planning on the day when we would all see Washington and New York together. Our class officers for that year were: Presidentt Shirley Mininger; Vice Pres- ident , Elaine Gray; Secretary{ Norma Quackenbush, Treasurer, Joan Jasek, Student Council representative, Dick Rose; Newspaper Reporter, Betty Ellis; Advisor, Miss Pasco. Although some of our friends left that year, our class was still quite large compared to the present one. In our Junior year we really felt big and important. We bought our class rings and showed them off to the lower classmen. We settled down a little that year due to extra curricular activities and our studies. Our biggest project was the Junior Prom, called Candy Land. I remember when we all went down to Elaine’s house to work on the decorations. We made huge candy canes, lolli- pops, and streched crepe paper into streamers. Then we had to carry everything up to the gym to decorate. What a time we had, and how disgusted we were when after our efforts the crepe paper ceiling tumbled down, not once, but twice, while putting it up. Miss Eveleigh was helpful to us in planning the Prom, without her it wouldn’t have been a suc- cess. I can see her now, standing on a ladder and stringing wires over the ceil- ing to hold the crepe paper. We elected our officers, as: President, Shirley Minin- ger; Vice President, Darrell Legacy; Secretary, Eleanor Lawton; Treasurer, Joan Jasek; Newspaper Reporter, Polly LaPree; Advisor Mr. Abrams. Finally that awaited day arrived. We were Seniors ! We set forth ambiguously, hoping for that day in June, Our first vtmturr w is hazing the Freshr n V o Seniors thought the ' ay f their Initiation was t..f mat glamorous of their liver. Nert care our Ssoi'-r Play Sister Susie Swings it which Ivra sure w“ l ZA-wn' forget. V e )•; i fur ut prr -. t!.ce and after, The p.Lay turned out very 1. in spite of the fact that we left out part of a scene In the third act. Than we get at the tack of publishing our yoarcook. That meant running around if- ter ads and typing ccncinousiy„ We sold hot-cross buns during Lent; v.hat a picture vie made loaded down wi th books and hot cross buns, appearing to others as baked goods walking down the street. We are now looking for- ward to the climax of all our school years, the trip for which wc worked so hard. You may wonder how we feel toward leaving school cr perhaps you can renenter how yc.i. felt on that day of graduation.
