This publication has also a iorvvard loolc. As our indian predecessors in this beautiful valley oi the Susquehanna sounded on the tom-tom the call which assembled the tribes and sent them out eager lor adventure, so vve ol the Qvvego Free Academy call again all its loyal sons and daughters to loin in spirit the great chorus oi GN QVVEGQA Ill When James Mc- Master first came intotheSusque- hanna valley, in 1784, and visited the scene of his former exploits as a soldier of the revolution, he little thought the land which appeared to him the most desirable as a home farm would ever become the site of one of the most pleasant vil- lages of the stateilnor did he then believe the land on which he made his pitch would ever be selected as the seat of justice of one of the best interior agricultural counties of New York. It was the general fertility of soil and the de- sirable situation of the land, the first consider- ations that presented themselves to a farmer's mind, that impelled pioneer McMaster to select this spot as the site of his future home, and it made little difference to the indians whether he se- lected lands on the east or west side of the Owego creek, the north or the south side of the Susquehanna, but if early tradition and record be true, A the worthy pioneer had previous knowledge of the productive character of soil, for in 1779 he had helped to destroy the lndian TIIRY ' 0F narrow road ran from the river north through where Lake Street now is, extending through the lot occupied by the Times office,and on up the valley of Qwego creek. This was known as the Lake Road, as it led from Qwego to Cayuga Lake. ln 1802, the vicinity of Lake Street was a wilderness of pine trees. The high- way now called Main Street extended from where Park Street now is to the Cayuga Lake trail CMcMaster Streetl and was known as Second Street, and also 8ack Street. Another road be- gan near where the Ahwaga l-lotel now stands and ran diagonally across open fields to the northwest corner of the park. Paige Street was at that time only a lane. These streets mentioned were the only streets in the settlements prior to 1800, ln 1802, the Qwego and lthaca Turnpike was opened and it village standing onthe site James McMaster lived L :f,5,,'fA, 'Mfr f'7:2fFf:1-1 D ti .

It is interesting to know that his home was on the site now occupied by Mrs. G. l-l. Pumpelly. ln the narrative of early village life, we must not forget to mention the names of Amos Draper and James McQuigg who did a great deal towards molding the fine village which we now have. Many of the settlers who came after these men had been soldiers in the Revolu- tionary war. The maiority came from the eastern states. They were an excellent class of people, of good family connections, and some of them wealthy. The first regularly laid-out highway through the village began at the ufording place on Qwego creek, below where Main Street now crosses, and thence extended east on the present course of the street to McMaster Street, thence down to Front Street, and easterly on that thoroughfare to and beyond the village limits. When the first survey of the town was taken, a by - - . . g was laid out as an 'fi .

During the war of 1812, the lthaca-Qwego Turnpike was of great value as a means of bring- ing supplies to the Atlantic seaboard by way of the Susquehanna River, an important artery of commerce at that time. Large quantities of salt, plaster, and other commodities were brought down Cayuga Lake by boat, thence drawn by team to Qwego, and here loaded on arks and shipped down the river to the Pennsylvania and Maryland markets. As the river was so impor- tant, most of the first stores were built on its bank. The business of transporting merchandise from lthaca to Qwego attained such great pro- portions that, in 1828, a number of capitalists residing in lthaca and Qwego, chief among whom was James Pumpelly, obtained a charter from the legislature to build a railroad between the two villages. This was the second railroad chartered in the state and one ofthe i 71-45 A-'ii Q - h d 5 ,Z .-gut, first to be c artere inthe country, It was -1111 opened tothe public it April, 1834.

The cars were run bya switch under the stores on the river's bank, where their contents were readily unloaded into the arks. ln the fall of 1849, the New York and Erie Qwego, and for Railroad was completed to Qwego, and all shipping by river, with the exception of lumber, potatoes, and other such commodities, ceased. On the morning of September Q7,1849, a fire destroyed all except three of the stores on Front and Lake Streets. Qne hundred and four build- ings, exclusive of barns, were burned, entailing a loss of about s3oo,ooo. Nearly all the build- ings were of wood. This great calamity checked, but it did not permanently impair the prosperity of the village. The business men, without delay, caused the erection of the present substantial brick blocks in place of the wooden buildings, and progress was thereafter continuous. Before the nineteenth century Captain Luke Bates built the first tavern in Qwego and soon after, the Franklin l'louse was opened. The Qwego Academy was founded in 1828. The Qwego Gas and Light Company was or- The Tioga National Bank, located on Front Street was organized in January and began business April,1865, with a capital of S100,000. The Owego National Bank, located on Lake Street, was organized May 10, 1883, with a cash capital of 550,000 ln the course of years, the Qwego National Bank and the Tioga Bank consolidated and formed the Owego National Bank which is located on Main Street at the present time. From the best sources of information it is be- lieved that Owego was made a postoffice sometime during the year 1800, although the department records show no reports from the office previous to January 1, 1801. The attractiveness of Qwego today has its appeal to all who love the peace and inspira- tion which come from intimate contact with the gifts ofnature.Many . , creeksandglensand woods roads tempt the traveler the hi-'?F'ii 'ltfl,ilq lf,gZ,f hunter, and the an- -' llffg E-qwg .,,.' - 1 iii, mg' , ,, . gler to tarry awhile. til The Susauehanna ,--f ygijii I river sweeps in a MMFML ' - 1 ff!-J-it picturesque bend at s f A Y its 4.

The Owego Driving Park Association was formed in1871, leasing grounds for a fine half-mile track. lnterest in horse racing can still be seen every year at the County Fair. The center of trade at the time of early settle- ments was that portion of Front Street nearest to Church Street. ln the course of years many factories located in Qwego, foundries and ma- chine shops, harness factories, carriage factories, soap factories, glove factory, and several others. With the invention ofthe automobile and other machines, came the decrease of business in many of these plants. Today, we have the Endicott Johnson Shoe Factory which employs a great maiority of the Qwego people. The First National Bank of Tioga, located on Front Street was organized January 6, 1865, to supersede the old Bank of Owego, a state institution with SQ00,000 capital. The First National Banks capital was S100,000. The charter was renewed in 1885 for twenty years. several miles is navigable for sail boats and canoes. ln the early 1900's there were many steamboats on the river which carried passen- gers from Owego to l-liawatha lsland. The island was, at that time, a very popular summer resort and the older inhabitants of Owego will vividly remember many happy experiences which occurred on these steamboat excursions. Just across from l-liawatha lsland on the north side of the river, a new concrete highway runs by an interesting little house in which the Rocke- fellers lived, while John D. Rockefeller and his brother, William, went to school in the old Qwego Academy. Owego is also interesting as the home of General l'l. M. Robert, whose books on parliamentary law are'nation-wide authority. Thomas C. Platt, former U. S. Senator, was born and lived in Qwego. A favorite walk, of which hikers never seem to tire, takes one past Glenmary, and the home of the poet, Nathaniel Parker Willis, where hef produced many of his best poems. The inhabitants of Owego have a right to be proud of their little village, rich in pioneer an- cestry and the gifts of Mother Nature. is iw1iTT e , + g,,:.

It was in this school house that a meeting was called March 4, 1817, to discuss the question ol the Academy. By an act of Legislature of the State of New Yorlc, in 1782, a lot of tour hundred acres was set aside in each township for the support of the Gospel and two lots of two hundred acres for the support ol schools. At a town meeting it was decided to sell two hundred acres set aside for schools and to use the proceeds for the building of a new school. The Academy was built on the fig, 21:54.-QA':l H 'lil old academy lot on Court Street by Amos Martin in 1872. James Pumpelly was the Presi- dent ol the First school board. The new building V in 1 ' - Iii E I2 -1 EMF E 'mug Y, --t N -x . . . 9? Q 37 5 I . truss? ' -i mm SEE I I . V ..: lr M I S .I gif was divided into three parts. The lower Floor was oc- cupied by the girls, the upper Floor by the principal who taught l.atin and Greek and the mid- dle Floor by the prin- cipal's assistantwho taught mathematics. The analytic method of in- struction was used and the plan ot the school was that the young ladies and young men should be perfectly distinct and separate except when they should meet on the recitation bench under the watchful eye of the professor. There were two terms in the school year. The summer term began the third weelc in April and continued for twenty-four weelcs. The winter term began the third Wednesday in Qctober and continued tor twenty-four weelcs. The tuition varied from two dollars to four dollars according to the subjects talcen and at this time there was a tax oi forty cents tor fuel in the winter and thirty cents in the summer. There was only one month of vacation each year. ln 1843 the Academy ran into serious compe- tition. Mrs. Mary Palmer and Miss Eunice Wil- liams established a boarding and day school for young ladies. This school, called The Owego Female Seminaryf' was in a large white house onthe north side ot Front Street where the Van Buslcirk and Wallis houses now stand. This school was such a success that in the summer of 1843 the Academy started the Owego Female institution, to counteract the loss of young SClIO0L llIS'l'0IlY ladies from the girls' department of the Academy. This lnstitute was started at the house of Joseph M. Ely who was principal of the Academy in 1844. The school was not a success and was closed after a short time, ln the meantime the Academy had been growing. The tuition had been raised until the schedule ranged from one dollar to Five dollars for a course a quarter. Besides these studies the girls were regularly given instruction in music without charge. From this time on the history of the Qwego Free Academy was a record of continued and increasing success for a period of nearly a quarter of a century. l-low- 4 eveir, with the in- 'jgm g 7, 5 tro uction o our 1 lx I 'f'k3J state free schools, followed in 1853 by the union free aca- demic system, with all its increased advantages over the tuition schools and academies of the period, then came the gradual though certain decline in in- terest and profit in the aFtairs of the Academy. The result was its Final dissolution, so far as its corporate charter was concerned, and in 1864, it was merged into the more modern system under the name ot the Hlslnion Free Schools of the Village of Owegof' ln 1883, the First Academy on the southwest corner of Main and Academy Streets was erected at a cost of 525,000.00 Some of the citi- zens desired the Academy to be built on the old site but the board decided to build on the corner of Academy and Main Streets. This was Finished in 1884 and was the pride of Qwego. However, in the course of the years following, much im- provement was being made in all schools and in 1921, it was found that this building was in- adequate to meet the needs of the community. ln 1923, plans were made tor a new academy that would cost S270,000.00. This sum was to be raised by taxing the property of the school district. The present academy building was ready for occupation in the tall of 1924. At tirst, all the rooms in the building were not used but by 1927 the steady increase in registration made A mf '...f 5, ' - 2 ? .- 7 it necessary to open 1 - .Y ,fm all parts ofthe build- 1 ZEEE ing and at this pres- ,,u -'gfzittt -Y -' . gg!! milf 1' 5, it Q, ent time, every room -f is in use with a reg- ' -- 1 iii , , ltltj istratlon of 750 'Z ,, ,ffribi-1 ' Yi.

It is unique be- cause of the marked Fluctuations in its Fortunes, such as winning from some of the more experienced Fives of the league, yet losing a bitterly contested game to a team perhaps a bit below the Varsity's rank. Although handicapped by the loss of men from last year's squad and the sickness that spread around Owego durin the season, Coach Hubbard put his squad through daily drills wit? perseverance. By doing this he eventually rounded outa Five that could work with keen precision and cooperation. We all know we had a team that was hard to beat. The Indians came through with honors this year by winning the Southern Counties' League championship for the second consecu- tive year. The whole student body is to be praised For the cooperation given the team which, although Fighting against overwhelming odds, came through with victory. After winning over Norwich, Newark Valley and Elmira l-leights, Coach l-lubbard entered his team in the sectionals at Boynton Junior l-ligh School at lthaca. On March 14 Waverly handed Owego its most bitter defeat of the season with a score of 25 to 23. Knox, Dunn, and Alexander are lost to next year's team but Coach l-lubbard has seven veterans with which to build another championship team to represent the O. F. A. during the 1938 season.

We were given a new gym floor last tall and there was much enthusiasm over basketball. The team which took first honors in intramural basket- ball this year was composed of faculty members and post graduates. The powerful squad, consisting of such no- tables as Reed, lfales, l'lubbard, l-letherington, and Wol- cott, ran over the smaller teams and was undefeated during the entire season. The Seniors landed in second place followed by the Juniors, Sophomores, and Fresh- men. phil Hubbard, Head Coach ln the Junior l-ligh the 8 's won first place with the Pre-acs placing second. 3 TRACK A track team was started last spring under the direction of Phil l-lubbard. Although last year's team did nothing spectacular, it is expected that Owego will be more successful this year. One realiges that the possibilities are all the greater when one watches l.az Rowe run the S290 or see l-lank Rollins clear the pole-vaulting bar. The Junior l-ligh is also well represented in this field. Two inter-class meets were held last year at Marvin Park. The First was won by the Seniors and the second by the Sophomores. This spring a large number of boys have come out for track, and this wealth of material gives promise that the Indians will place well in the scheduled meets. TENNIS With most ofthe veterans lost from the previous year a new team composed of Clarke Fitts, George Taylor, Leslie Bogart, and Reigart Lowry gave a good account of themselves last year and promise some good matches in the future. This year's team of Fitts, Taylor, Bogart, and Knox should be far stronger, GOLF A poorly balanced team which won only from Endicott represented Owego last year. For this spring Linley Grant, Clarence Morse, Donald Munroe, Robert Jamesson, Dominic Covello, and Victor Wolslegel, promise much better competition. i Coach Eales Coach Dean Coach Hubbard 'I6 r',' captain nrcharcl Foster Dick', Center Fredericlc Knox Kaya Right Forward James Rowe HI-GZH Left Guard Lyle Smith Ugmittyi' Left Forward Charles Hoslcins l-los Right Guard IVC 'Wm L . m, r, 7 Captain Richard Cornwell ..DiC,, ,H , Right Halfhafkw' Richard Hauver Red Fullhack Frederick Livermore Fred Left Halihack Linley Grant Doug Quarterback Lowell Wolff AnchorH Left End Lavene Millard Beano,' Right Taclcle Harry Gibson Gila Left Guard Lewis Davis ul.ouieH Center Byron Weber ..By,.

THE SENIOR PLAY The Ninth Guest, by Gwen Davis, a mystery melodrama in three acts, was the cause of the great stir in the Qwego Free Academy Auditorium on the eve- nings of April '15 and 16. The seven deaths caused the rise of many a hair. The senior play owes its success in great part to its excellent director Mrs. Turner, who has guided many plays to like Fortunate First nights. A great deal of credit is due to Miss Ruth Smith also, who assisted Mrs. Turner in the direction ot The Ninth Guestf, CAST . . , . . Nell Stiles . . . Leslie Bogart . l'lugh Burlington . . .

Seventh Grade fellow Students, This year the Student Council, your elected body of representatives, has worked diligently, endeavoring to enact many laws to meet with your approval. ln the first part of December we sponsored the CD. F. A. Carnival. Who can forget those hours of fun when we awakened to hidden talents found in our teachers and fellow students as barkers and freaks? During those two days you showed an ad- mirable spirit as you took your places as entertainers or participants in the fun. The carnival proved also to be a huge financial success. You had gone the first step, the next you left to the Student Council and we began booking programs for assembly along with our other tasks. The selection of artists to play before a high school audience is a more difficult problem than one would imagine. We have tried to pro- vide variety in chapel programs. It is said that during this school year there has been more outside talent here than ever before. As time goes on l hope that l may not be forgotten for l can never forget the great friendships made with you of the Owego free Academy. Sincerely, Stanley J. f layes Q6 OMEGA PHI ALPHA Mary Eahl . .

Faculty Adviser The Qwego chapter of Future Farmers is a branch of the national organization known as the Future Farmers of America. This organization has five main purposes: 'l. To promote vocational agriculture in the high schools of America. Q. To create more interest in agricultural occupations. 3. To promote thrift. 4. To promote scholarship. 5. To develop local leadership. ln the eight years since its organization the Qwego chapter has constantly striven to develop each of these purposes. During the year the association conducts tours to the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University. l-lere the members listen to lectures on up-to-date agricultural methods, take part in iudging contests, and attend a meeting of the State Future Farmers Association. Members of the club are required to have investments in agricultural enterprises, such as poultry or other live stoclc, and to carry on these individual investments suc- cessfully through their own efforts. High standards of classroom worlc are required of Future Farmers who desire advancement in the organization. Future Farmers are allowed to assume responsibility as often as possible, in order that they may be able to carry the burdens of leadership. ln these many ways, the Future Farmers feel that they are carrying out the ideals set up by the national association.

Cooperation is an essential in an organization ol this kind.

FRESHMEN DISPUTE RIGHT OF SENIORS T0 INITIATE THEM was the headline vvhich heralded the Class oi '40 to the Ovvego Free Academy. So vociierous and persistent were the cries of the Freshmen that Finally the Seniors consented to debate the matter in chapel. Although the arguments presented by the Freshmen tar outweighed those presented by the Seniors, it was decided by popular vote that the Freshmen should be initiated. The Freshmen accepted the decision with unusual good grace and the Seniors proceeded to initiate them in the usual vvay. COACH HUBBARD SAYS FRESHMEN BOYS SHOW PROSPECTS OF BEING VARSITY FOOT- BALL MATERIAL. This headline was truly iustified because one oi the boys oi the Class ol '40 made the First team and another made the second team. This alone would make the Freshman Class out- standing, but that isn't all. FRESHMEN GIRLS WIN SECOND PLACE IN INTRAMURAL HOCKEY LEAGUE. The girls, not to be outdone by the boys, took the bull by the horns, as it were, and vvon second place tor them- selves in this league. FRESHMEN GIRLS WIN SECOND PLACE IN INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL LEAGUE. The girls proved by winning second place in this league that their Winning second place in the hockey league was nit mlerely an accident. Whoever said Freshmen were green certainly was not speaking ol a class Ii Ae t is. - NUMBER OF FRESHMEN BOYS TURN OUT FOR BASKETBALL. It the ability of the Freshmen boys in any vvay measures up to their enthusiasm, the Future Ovvego Free Academy varsity basketball team is right in the Freshman Class. The Freshmen have given every proof that vvhen they start a thing they go through with it, so no doubt they vvill vvin out in the Field of basketball, too. Although the Freshman Class is supposed to be inferior to the other classes, the Class of '40 has proved that it merits the respect, not the disdain of the other classes. Indeed, the Freshman Class has set a record that would be hard to duplicate, in fact, Well nigh impossible. 40 L if, L Lx L. S O P H O M O R E S Qlticers Frederick Livermore . . . . . .

From among our distinguished number came a Student Council President, Stanley l-layes, a Football Captain, Richard Cornwell, a Basketball Captain, Richard Foster, an Editor oi the Tom-Tom, Mary Fahl, an Editor of the Pow-Wow, l-lugh Burlington, a President of the l-lonor Society, the Omega Phi Alpha, a President of School Chorus, and many other leaders. We admit we have no geniuses, that we are merely all-around good students, which satisfies us, since genius is so often lacking in humor and love of good times. The Senior Valentine Dance in the l'ligh School Gym gave the Seniors a chance to have their much loved good times. Who was the Ninth Guest? This was a question which bothered everyone in the school except a few Seniors. They found out and told all the school and the townspeople in their dramatic presentation, 'ilhe Ninth Guest. From this Fine experience in successfully leading the Owego Free Academy, we Seniors have gained momentum to take us on to become future Governors, Senators or perhaps even W. R. A. proiect leaders.
