This year, more than ever, the braves and maids honor them as they squat around the council Hre. The untiring leadership of these men has re- sulted in many new trophies for our scholastic and athletic benefit. For many moons, the tribes who follow us will also thank them for their achievements in these four years. Q CHARLES B. ESTEY Q RAY W. MANCHESTER Q CARL SADDLEMIRE Q DR. TRACY J. GILLETTE Q LEONARD E. PORTER Q JAMES R. STEELE Superintendent of Schools I W. G. MORGAN To the Students ofthe Owego Free Academy: Within the pages of this book you will find a record of this school year. Cherish it, for as the years pass you will look back upon it many times. As you step forth into a world of unrest and one badly in need of peace, keep in mind at all times the outstanding characteristics of the forefathers of this great valley, the American Indians. May your senses, as were theirs, be keenly alert, your judgments clear and your minds active. Such a foundation cannot fail to be a firm one upon which to build your future and the hope of the world. It is a pleasure to wish you success and happiness in your lifes' undertakings. Yours very sincerely, W. G.

Little did we ever realize when wc entered our freshman year in 1946 that someday we would be the superior seniors of O. F. A. and leave our Alma Mater for good. We found ourselves looking up to all the mighty seniors and thinking how older and wiser they must be. Then we found ourselves seniors and we were amazed at the little change we felt within ourselves. WVe hardly feel mighty or superior but rather we feel a little sad when we realize our school days are at an end. Looking back we see the mistakes we have made and the achievements we have accom- plished. We have a right to be a little proud of our class. We were the first in a lot of things in a lot of ways. In our sophomore year we were one of the few sophomore classes to sponsor a dance. That meant we were one of the few sopho- more classes to have money in the treasury. In our junior year we showed a great deal of enthusiasm and energy. The money in our treasury mounted from the dozens of hot dogs we sold at football games and the activities we sponsored. In our last year we collected a lot more of that Hgreen stuff by working hard and putting on a fine senior play. To the school we left an electric scoreboard to be used by the teams of O. F. A. to chalk up future victories. Yes, every fellow and girl in the class is proud of our accomplishments. These accomplishments were made possible only by the training we have received here at O. F. A. We entered high school inexpe- rienced children and we are emerging young men and women ready to face the world. If it were possible for a class to leave a will, ours would be something like this: to all future classes we will all the joy and laughter that has been ours, all the spirit and unity we have striven to achieve, and all the wonderful luck and patient guidance that has been ours. - - -HFv'1g-:ve----f-e--lf . -- -- ff.- Sir Walter Scott-Jim Elam Miss Emily Post-Shirley Birch John Barrymore--Bob Cross Ethel Barrymore-Bell Gunset Albert Einstein-Bernard Sedat Madame Curie-Joyce Berkeley Clark Gable-Jim Wright Hedy Lamarr-Betty Merrick Red Skelton-Earl Hulslander Baby Snooks--Mary McAuley Leon Hart-Ralph Bennett Babe Didrikson-Janice Holbert HARRIETT AMES Hank1' Music, music, musiei' Orchestra, 1, 2, Girls, Choir, 2, 3, Mixed Choir, 2, 3, 4, NYSSMA Con- ference at Saratoga, 4.

DEAR CLASSMATES, Of all the things I have done, I find writing a farewell letter to you the hardest. I guess the winding road has finally straightened out and has come to an end. Through our twelve years we have worked together to accomplish many things whose memories we shall cherish as priceless. Now all these activities are gone and we must go out into the world to seek a new life. It will be hard, but we must never give up, for the best of things usually are the hardest to obtain. I can't tell you how wonderful it has been to be your president for the last two years. I wish each and everyone of you the best of luck wherever you go, and in everything you do.

The Indians of Sl proudly hold open the rawhide doorway of this large wigwam to introduce you to Chief Pale Face Garry Hills and the rest of his brave warriors and squaws. One of the bravest is Second Chief Black Eyed Arthur Butlien. Along with these are two squaws, Little Cute Face Betty Han- son, who takes care of all the messages and Smile Pretty Cynthia Bauer, who takes and protects the tribe's wampum. Not only are there just these honored braves and squaws in this large Wigwam, but the whole tribe are waiting to greet you with a friendly 5'How.,' And last but not least is the Witch Doctor Frank Tamburrino, who leads the tribe into the right wars and away from the wrong. This Witch Doctor led them 26 into a war dance on the eleventh sun of the second rain and he also made different feast days where all of the squaws brought their best made food, to be sold for more Wampum, for their Smile Pretty Cynthia Bauer to pro- ICCI. The tribe of 5l'l has contributed to the school successes in football, baseball, and basketball. The Junior squaws hold th eir own in cheering the braves on to victory, and the On Club has a few of the Junior squaws as members. Many of the squaws as well as braves, are active athletes The Junior Tribe of 5l are aiming to be the best in scholarship and extra-curricular activities ever to be graduated from this wig- WHIII.

The beating of the tom-toms called the sophomore squaws,' and uwarriorsv to the big conference to elect their chief and his helpers. We elected Thomas Hartman as our chief and Charles Knox as vice-chieftain. Betty Signs was elected as our secretary, and David McNeil as our treasurer. Our tribe is well represented in the Student Council by Esther Toepke and William Mahar. We elect- ed Miss Yerdon to be our class advisor. We are Hheap-big proud of our braves, for they have participated in many of the school activities. The entire first string of the J. V. basketball team was made up of sopho- mores. The five boys, George Bowen, Ernie Hanbury, Bud Knox, Jay Campbell, and Chuck Dougherty, made their tribe very proud of them. The second string was also represented by some of our warriors, Herbie Settel, Pat Panetti, and Frankie Waters. We all hold our heads high, for one of our tribes- men, Bill Mahar, is on the first string on the Varsity Team, and a member of the Varsity Club. In football we were proud to see the great ability of big husky Dick Gartland and others like Bud Knox, Bill Bish, and Chuck Dougherty. Track has not yet started, but when it does some of our fleetfooted runners will surely do well in the races. Of course the squaws have been doing their part to keep up,' the spirit by cheering their warriors to victory. In football all of the squaws in our tribe did plenty, but in basket- ball Maggie Hoskins, Joanne White, and Rosie Codner helped make the cheering squad one of the best in the school's history. Both the squaws and braves participated in the choirs, band and orchestra. Some of the sophomores wrote essays for a contest. The essays were written on the topic, Peace With Honor for America. One of the biggest worries of the Sophs was how to face their classmates and give oral book reports. Now they look forward to book report days because they are so much fun. As a whole, the sophomores, in the past year, did the work to the best of their ability. They have labored hard all year long, and hope that they will be the successful graduat- ing class of '52.

In September of 1949 the Freshman Tribe entered the first year of high school. Some had been here before at the Owego Free Academy in the seventh and eighth grades. Others came to the O. F. A. for the first time. These new Indians came from Apalachin, Tioga Center, Little Meadows and Fleming- ville. The first few days they became adjusted to their subjects. Many smart Indians are taking college entrance courses and are major- ing in either science or language. Agriculture, business, machine shop and homemaking are some other courses taken by Freshman stu- dents. All Freshmen are taking general science, a new and interesting subject. The first activity this year was the class meeting. The chief of the Freshman Tribe is President john Manchester. Others in the executive body of the tribe are: Ronnie Harding, vice president g Sonia Walchuck, secretary, and Jerry Lockwood, treasurer. The able and worthy adviser is Miss Rosen- 30 berg. Two tribesmen, Luann Emerson and James Milks, are Student Council representa- tives. Many of the tribesrnen have participated in extra-curricular activities. A few warriors went out for football. The freshmen had their own basketball team composed of John Man- chester, Chuck Knauf, Jerry Lockwood, Jim Kuhns, Ronnie Harding and Dick Cooper. This team won seventeen out of eighteen games. The war chants and yells heard at basketball games came from Audrey Bowen, Kit Gillette and Sonia Walchuck, cheer- leaders. Many freshmen were in boys', girls', and mixed choirs. This year, for the first time, many of the freshmen participated in bowl- ing, archery and basketball. The seniors and freshmen both had exciting experiences dur- ing initiation week. Many of the Indians learned co-operation and good sportsmanship. The Class of 1953 is planning to be one of the best in the history of O. F. A. FRESHMAN GIRLS Front row, left to right-K. Gillette, A.

Where the Indian children of yester years learned the skills of their fathers, we, the lads and lassies of the eighth grade, have been storing our minds not only with knowledge basic for our high school progress, but also with essential habits and activities upon which our future success depends. We have found English-Part I a tool sub- ject, since grammar, spelling and vocabulary are necessary for the writing of letters and compositions, and also for reading and inter- preting good literature in English-Part ll. Social studies has given us a knowledge of our country's background and a friendlier attitude toward neighboring countries. Math- ematics has shown the importance of accur- acy in everyday financial problems. Current events has kept us informed on world news. In safety we have learned that prevention of many accidents is possible. Health and physi- cal education have shown us how to keep physically fit. These scholastic activities are required to prepare us for progress. Our citizenship activities have taught us to cooperate with others. We understand the importance of self-discipline in a democracy, and the qualities essential to a good character. Our class meetings have given us a chance to express our ideas and come to good decisions. Good citizenship is an asset for the future. Through band, orchestra and choir some have further developed our musical talents. In Journalism Club some wrote articles for the news. School athletics have promoted good sportsmanship. In the track-meet, many tested their skills in different contests. Extra- curricular activities, too, add to the funda- mentals. Sports, clubs, musical activities and parties are recreational activities that have helped to make our leisure time of value. Although our work has been hard, most of us have enjoyed this exciting and eventful year. We sincerely hope that as a result of our activities, we will be better citizens. Let us remember that the foundations for our success are laid upon ambition, enthusiasm and ability, and cultivate them. As the Indian children passed into full membership in the tribe, likewise we make our bid for entrance into high school, as the Class of 1954, with love and loyalty for our school.

From the first grade till sixth grade, we all shared our many activities in the Longhouse of days gone by. Not many of us stayed in the same tribe every year because we were separated and our proud tribe also attracted many new faces. VVe all lived around this great 'cLonghouse of Education. Even those who lived outside our quaint Indian Village were brought in by buses. From these primary grades through sixth grade we toiled and labored till our heads could hardly stand it, and then we were admitted to the great i'Longhouse of O. F. A. Excited and very, very happy, we now trekked to our new schooling grounds. Much later, on the date of September '49, thirty-five new members were adopted into the O. F. A. tribe of Indians. We were placed under the tribe number i'7. Although we were new it took us only a few weeks to be- come accustomed to the changes in ritual and our new dwelling place. Every two weeks we meet in Council to discuss our sorrows and joys. We follow new trails which lead us to such activities as home- making, chorus, band, assembly and gym. Our holidays are shared as gay festivals of our tribe. We are now in a middle age of our train- ing, but someday we shall proudly step forth as fully grown, fully prepared braves and maidens of the tribe of O. F. A. Indians.

The Senior Play The Senior Class of 1950 will be remem- bered as the class that presented one of the frothiest and giddiest comedies ever produced at the O. F. A, The play, Feathers in A Gale, was the story of a modern girl in New England about 1804. The plot was highly amusing, the dia- logue witty, and the characters humorously drawn. With Miss Dorothy Goodrich and Make-up 38 Time Miss Roberta Fitzgerald as directors and with talented seniors as members of the cast, how could the play be anything but a success? Feathers in A Gale was a success in more ways than one. Besides being a financial suc- cess, it had a homey, nostalgic quality which endeared it to the cast as well as the audience and made it an unforgettable experience for all concerned.

Such faculty mem- bers as Mr. Ellis devoted many hours to the perfecting of this book. The business work supervised by Mrs. Ellis, assisted by Miss Hamilton. While the art editors worked diligently on illustrations and arrangement of photos, the business managers and advertising staff coped with many other difficult problems. Simul- taneous with the completion of these ideas, the typists, photo editors, sales staff and others were busy accomplishing their assigned tasks. Many hours were also consumed by the various editors in striving to reach the goal of making the 1950 Yearbook the best in many years. F1on!1ow,lef! lo righl+R. Holmes, Photographic Editor, V.

An annual activity for the Senior Tribe is the Kiwanis Speaking Contest, in which sev- eral squaws and braves participate. They write a speech and prepare it for delivery. A winner is chosen from each of the four groups of competitors. Enduring the first test, the four compete finally in a debate at the close of the season. Arousing topics which were featured this season included: Socialized Medicinef' i'Nu- clear Physics and Crime The Journalism Club has prospered this year. Elections were held and the oiiicers chosen were: Editor-in-Chief, Marlene Bo- land, Assistant editor, B. Pat Halstead, Secre- tary, Joan Nagel and Treasurer, Betty Han- son. The members wrote news of their school activities which was published in the local papers each week. They also published the Tomahawk', every other month.

F. A. Rose Murphy was elected vice-president. The participation of the members in the effort to make this school more enjoyable is evident. The first move the council made was to entertain the P. T.

The success of the club has been greatly influenced by his ability as leader. During the year we have attended field days, movies, judging contests, and have gone on many F. F. A.

Then with Bob Codner at the piano, Bill Mahar on drums and Dave Chand- ler on bass viol, who can help but join the Indian war dance? Maioreffes The majorettes and flag twirlers have been very active this year. Some of the highlights of their busy year are the Memorial Day and Flag Day parades and the annual Band Concert, for which they practiced diligently. They also took part in the activities between the halves of the foot- ball games, by putting on colorful exhibitions of talent and skill. In all, their year has been a highly success- ful one.

Vocal Music Nearly every day one of the choirs could be heard exercising their vocal chords in the music room. Besides the regular Mixed Choir, Girls' Choir and Girls, Ensemble, a Boys' Choir was organized this year. The Girls' Ensemble was very active in this village. They provided entertainment for the Par- ent-Teachers Association, the Fashion Show and many other organizations. The Christmas Concert was a great success. The choirs blended their voices in singing selections from the Messiah by George Handel. The accompaniment by David Gay on an organ added to the effectiveness of the concert. The cus- tomary candle light processional and recessional was done by the Mixed Choir. The Spring Concert was composed of songs showing the different sections of America. The songs consisted of Negro spirituals, western, pop- ular and patriotic songs. On May 5th, some of the members of the Mixed Choir were chosen to participate in the County Festival held at Newark Valley. As we go out into the world, we will have many pleasant memories of our experiences in music in the Owego Free Academy. GIRLS ENSEMBLE Front row,lefl io righ!7lNI.Knight, J. Wlilliams, K.

Although we have a small violin section, the present members, have made up for the large section we used to have. This year the orchestra has participated in many social events. Of these events the Senior Play, Commencement, the County Festival, and Public Speaking Contest have been out- standing. This year the orchestra was asked to attend the Cleveland Symphony Concert held at Binghamton in the Capitol Theatre. NVe are very fortunate to have such out- standing first chair musicians as Evelyn Tyrrell, flute, Nancy Shults, violin, Garry Hills, trombone, Jack Spaulding, drums, and Charles Estcy, trumpet. As you can see, the O. F. A. orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Frank Tambur- rino, has kept up that AH rating and even bettered it. It is truthful to say that the orchestra has had an outstanding musical and social year. 46 s W A - , t A -A A I11'el'uEfW3iil52iir1-1L ..ifg.E.QP.I 1.-L-1-6-.-rig.. L Fron! row, lefl lo right-M.

W'ith our playing of marches such as HThe Thundc-fer and 'glNashington Posti' we help- ed our football team have a very good season. Our Annual Spring Concert this year in- cluded such well-known favorites as L'Stormy VVeather with Charles Estcy as soloist, 5'Light Cavalry, 'iSong of Norway, HAmparito Rocaf' and a novelty called 'The Three Blind Nlicef lVith extra hours of practice which echoed with 'Shack to the beginningf, Hcrescendof' Hover againf' and 'ifastc-r from our conductor, and with our librarian, Mariori Bevan carrying out her tedious task of passing out and collecting the music, our concert was quite successful. lVe were hosts for the instrumental part of the Counity Festival held this year. lYe braves were very much pleased to receive our snappy new uniforms which arrived just in time for our spring concert. 47 b ..

A. gridiron warriors left their tepees to go on the warpath again last fall and came back with an impressive string of scalps. In seven battles they won four, broke even on two, and lost one by a very narrow margin. Starting the season off right, they journeyed to Oneonta to Hay the hosts 26-0. Two weeks later they repeated the score by trouncing Waverly 26-O. This game was the first to be played under the lights at Marvin Park. The next two games showed the braves bogging down somewhat and ending in ties with Vestal, 6-6. and Cortland. l9-l9. The week following the Cortland game showed the ln- dians in previous form as they scalped the visitors from Painted Post, 26-6. Retaining their prowess through the next week the In- dians downed the invading horde from New- ark Valley l8-l2. For the last game of the season they traveled to Elmira Heights where they suffered a heartbreaking defeat. Trail- ing 2l-26, with less than two minutes left to play, the Heights intercepted a pass, ran it back for a touchdown and converted thc extra point to sew up the game 28-26. With everything else considered, in out- scoring their opponents l-48-72, Owego's pig- skin warriors, under the able leadership of sachem Sam Deeb, and war chief Ralph Bennett, had an excellent season. Letls hope that the teams yet to come can bring as much honor and glory to Owegols halls as this yearls team did. 0 x .

The Owego Indians lost little time going on the warpath as the first game saw Owego journeying to Towanda and bringing back the latter's scalps with a 39 to 32 victory. This proved to be the ignition of a hot fire as the Owegoans downed seven more quintets in succession. During this span of eight wins and no setbacks they won two Southern County League encounters, Waverly 41 to 35 and Elmira Heights 44 to 34. Next came Horse- heads and one of the major upsets of the season as the Horseheads five cooled the In- dians off and won the game 39 to 35.

Although the Owegoans subdued Newark Valley in the next game they continued to be off the balll' and lost three out of their next Hve games, two of them being fatal as they were league en- counters. Watkins Glen, who was in Hrst place in league standings, invaded the local court and was upset 56 to 52 in a hard-fought game. The following week the Indians closed their season with a 54 to 42 win over Newark Valley. Ralph Bennett, Owego's versatile athlete, was the highest individual scorer for the Owego tribe with 273 points. Over all, the Indians had a pretty good season with a 6-4 record in the league and a 13-5 record over all games played. VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAM Top row- R. Bennett D. Schmitt W. Mahar D.

Baseball Play Ball started the O. F. A. Indians on the warpath in the 1949 season. Eight times the cry rang out to start and eight times the braves gave their all. The Indians massacred, and took six scalps. When the skirmishes were over only two battles were lost by the O. F. A. Braves.

This league gives the students who cannot play on the school team a chance to partici- pate in some sport. It also provides a great deal of interest to the outside students who stay in the gym at noon. The league consists of eight teams which are very evenly matched. Girls' Basketball In December, 1949 the athletic girls of the O. F. A. once again started basketball every Tuesday and Friday night. They learned some excellent shots this year under the capable leadership of Miss Yerdon. By the end of the year, the 'lOl' Club basket- ball squads were experts at lay-ups, pivoting and long shots. Miss Yerdon is positive that all of the girls will be professional basketball players with a little more practice. NOON LEAGUE CAPTAINS Front row, left to right4A. Bennett, D. Martin, J. Kuhns, R.

You tumble around and do various stunts which are very helpful in the exercising of the body. l'm sure everyone will agree that it has been lots of fun and we only hope we can have more of it again. Archery Something new has been added at O. F. A. The Indian has been a symbol here for a long time and now the bows and arrows have come into practice. Much new equipment was purchased to outfit archery squads. A summary of thc game is this. There are targets which consist of Hve circles. The gold circle as bullseye, counts the highest of nine points. The red counts seven, blue, five, black, three, and the white, one point. TUMBLING Front row, left fo righfffl. Chura, A. Lockwood, D.

Some of the sports that they have partici- pated in are: basketball, volley ball, soccer, badminton, softball, tumbling, and archery. Archery was a new sport for the girls. At the close of the year the girls had a banquet which everyone enjoyed. Cheerleaders They say behind every great man stands a woman. This could be said of teams too Behind every great team stands the cheer leaders. We use the word 'zstandsv figuratively because these cheerleaders do far more than just stand around. From the whistle that starts the Hrst football game to the horn that ends the last basketball game these aeque lines in the box can be seen jumping up and down rooting for their warriors.
