Everything was very new and very wonderful. We spent that year getting acquainted and observing the roles we were to play for the next three years. Our class had representatives on the cheer- leading squads and on the basketball teams. When we returned to school in September of 1951, four of our classmates had left our group. Again we had some cheer- leaders and basketball players in our midst. Under the jur- isdiction of our advisor, Coach Farrow, we sponsored several activities. The following fall, our Junior year, we were all looking forward to the excitement and hard work ahead of us. The Junior year was an eventful one for us. That was the year of the big dance our class held, the Junior Prom. The dance, which had the theme of MOONLIGHT AND ROSES, was a big success. Roger Newman’s Orchestra furnished the music. The students in grades seven through twelve chose Arthur Scarpino and Joan Faulkner to be King and Queen. It was an event we shall always remember. Our class rings came in December of that year. Four of our girls helped the Seniors with their play. Besides this we had cheerleaders and basketball players in the class. We helped the Seniors with the 1953 ORISKA, and worked on the staff of the newspaper, THE HILLTOP NEWS. Our biggest, busiest and happiest year was yet to come. It began on September S, 1953« Our class of twenty-one had grown to twenty-three, the largest Senior Class ever tc pass through the halls of Oriskany Falls High School. Frank Delaney and Donald Brady had joinei cur ranks.. We were faced with many tasks that year of which the year- book, ORISKA, and the Senior play, in addition to our studies, were the most important. We elected the ORISKA staff and decided to mimeograph the yearbook. We chose the farce, BEANES FOR BREAKFAST, to be presented on the nineteenth and twentieth of November. It was hard work for both but it was a lot of fun. Who among us will forget our play with Mimi, the ambitious widow, and Opal Beane, her schoolchum; Mimi’s children, Peggy and Jarel; Speedy, who hated being called Ethelbert; Bessie, who fainted every time anyone said snake; Gertie, the hillbilly cook who was an adict of soap operas; and all the other wonderful characters? The year sped by and before we knew it, it was June 2B, 1954, the biggest day of our lives, the day of our high school graduation! After graduation there were the Alumni Banquet and our trip to climax all the excitement, fun and hard work of twelve wonderful years! Our officers for the four years at Oriskany Falls High School were: President Vice President 1950- 51 1951- 52 1952- 53 1953- 54 Joan Faulkner Lucille Scarpino Gerald Olnstead Lucille Scarpino Lucille Scarpino Arthur Scarpino Susan °eck Joan Faulkner Secretary Treasurer 1950- 51 1951- 52 1952- 53 1953- 54 Barbara Moten Joan Faulkner Sonya Krohn Sonya Krohn Arthur Scarnino Sallyanne Sigsbee Arthur Scarpino Arthur Scarpino Class Reporter Advisors 1950- 51 1951- 52 1952- 53 1953- 54 Sallyanne Sigsbee Sallyanne Sigsbee Barbara Moten Barbara Moten Mr. Farrow Mr. Farrow Mr. Farrow Mr. Farrow Miss SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Good evening, Mr. And Mrs. America, on this June 28th, 1962.

MECHANICAL DRAWING Last year we added Driver Education; this year Mr. Washer again greeted us with a new course, Mechanical Drawing. Although some of us claimed we couldn't draw a thing, we soon found how easy It was to letter and then to make drawings, not of land- scapes, but of mechanical parts whloh are found everywhere around us. Soon drawing boards, T-squares and trlanlges were the order of the day. Although this was the first year the course was offered, we predict that this will become a very popular subject In the future.
