However. the team did not lead the league but finished in second place with a 6-2 record. ln captur- ing second it also gained a birth in the sec- tional IY playoffs. Iii I8 regular season games-K Uwego scored an unoliicial record of H60 points against our opponents' B91 points. To do this the Bed and Blue averaged approxi- mately 60 points per game for a 10 per cent shooting average. This year the team consisted of three seniors. Ernst Blaasch. Jay Camphell and George Bowen. and two juniors. John Nlanehester and Richard Cooper. ln finishing eight games three Owego players garnered enough points to place in the top ten seorers. Bowen finishing with l27 points. Cooper with I-H points and Manchester with 80 points. The Owego five started off with a hang hy defeating Windsor and then losing to Athens. Our first league game popped up on sched- ule and Uwego pulled an upset on Vliaverly hy the score of 57-53. After tasting victory the Owego live kept up its winning streak for the next seven games. defeating Homer. lflmira Heights. Horseheads, Watkins Glen. Sayre. and Newark Valley hefore heing defeated hy Waverly. After this defeat Uwego suffered two more losses to Elmira Heights and Athens hc- fore catching fire again. Uwego then hnished the season with four straight wins. downing Horseheads. Sayre. Newark Valley. and Wat- kins Glen. This gave the Uwego Indians tht- hest record in their three years of play. Also winning the l-l- games gave the team the right to a trip to New York for the National Invita- tion Baskethall Tournament. The Owego team this year was very success- ful hecause of its great team spirit. Wie hope that the hoys who will he hack next year will have the same fighting spirit and success that the team had this year.

These Indians. who had never seen action hefore. had to HII the shoes of some very great hraves of the past. Une to the lack of experience and the fact that our opponents had exceptionally seasoned teams, our record was not so impressive as in past years. Our season ended with three wins. four losses. and one tie. Our hrst game was against Vestal. We went down to defeat hut gained valuahle experience in playing together. Although we lost to Elmira Heights. Coach Sam lleeh. as well as Coach Spencer. let us know that we showed considerable improvement. Before we found ourselves. we lost to our powerful rivals from Wvaverly. Although heaten. the team showed a lot of fight and drive. Uur first win came when we rolled over a rather weak llath team. With this feeling of victory we invaded a rugged Athens squad only to how humhly in defeat hefore them. With the will to win we really scalped Painted Post. lu traditional weather we clashed with a Newark Valley powerhouse. In a sea of mud the uuders dog Indians hattled the Valley team to a tie. This was in itself a moral victory for the lndians. To finish the season the lndians mel and defeated a light. powerful and speedy Uneonta eleven. As we write these lines that compose the story of our team's victories and defeats we have reason to he proud. Although we did not set the world on fire we developed a hue team. a team with plenty of spirit and the will to win. We can feel sure that this team will certainly have an exceptionally good season next year, FOO'I'BAI.I. SQLAD Iron! zou'. lrll lu riglilfl. Xlnrphy, ,I. lizirr. Nl. l.id4llc. R. lhompson. I.

The Dramatics Club entertained the student body in an assembly with the play The Valianti' by Halworthy Hall and Robert Middlemass. To offset the seriousness of this drama. the thespians presented The Fatal Quest. a humorous skit. lluring the year. each member of the club had to entertain with original skits or pantomimes. Such performances proved worthwhile because the club members gained con- fidence and poise in front of an audience, The club not only provided enjoyment but it helped to discover the latent talents of its members who may some day tread in the footsteps of the great artists, aclminidi The Owego Machinist Club was established in l95l for the purpose of increasing and improv- ing the knowledge and working ability' of the young machinists of our school. This year our Club consisted of twenty-four members under the guidance of Mr. Paul Andrews. From these twenty-four members. two noon-hour basketball teams were organized. The club is proud of the successful record of both teams. The Advanced Shop Class of l95l. which was organized into this Machinists Club is also proud to express its thanks for being given the opportunity to learn and make future machin- ists out of themselves. Every member hopes that in the future our club will grow in size and that more students will participate in this organization. DRANIATICS CLUB I'.t'll7If rozt'AK. Gillette. RI. Hill, j.

As one of the first steps toward greater ahility in puhlic speaking several seniors took part in the annual Kiwanis Speaking liyent. The steps in writing and giving a speech are many' and we spent hours organizing. writing. rewriting and memorizing our speeches under the direction of Mrs. Turner. These days ol' preparation were finally' climaxed at the Kiwanis Speaking lfyent. after which four winners were chosen to participate in the annual speaking contest. Although these speeches are only the heginning steps to greater speaking skill. we hopc thal soon we may he ahle to address an audience with poise and confidence. Student Council The Student Council is an elected hody representing the students of the Uwego Free Academy. This year the most important shoes in this organization to he hlled were those of the president. John Shafer. and the vice-president. Ronald Severson. These two worthy seniors served the student hody' to the lwest of their ahility. The ady'isor's shoes were elliciently hlled hy Mr. Morgan. our superintendent. When Nlr. Morgan was unahle to attend meetings the Council gratefully accepted the wise assistance ol' Mrs. Mallory. our dean. The past year has seen much activity within our school.

We had heard so much about the difference between grade school and junior high sizes and comforts. about the teachers. longer peri- ods. assemblies. and athletics. When we stepped into the Junior High shoes last fall. we discovered we had a big task ahead of us. It took quite a while to get used to changing rooms for some of the different subjects. Our homeroom meetings have been inter- esting because we had never had them in the grade school. We discussed different things that we would do in the near future. We planned our class parties and what we would do during them. The girls of each seventh grade room had ize ten weeks of homemaking. Some of the rooms knitted and some sewed. Partiesfsuch gay. happy affairs after the work of school. Truly happy times and our shoes tapped gailvl Uur big party was the St. Patrickis Day Party held partly in the Gvmnasium and partly in our homerooms. Yisual Educationfwe saw the movies. in- teresting and educational. It was such a nice wav to learn some information that might not be found in any textbook. One Friday during a fifth period we elect- ed two students to step into the shoes of the seventh grade representatives for Student liouncil. Now our shoes are growing tight. We leave them for others and hope they will enjoy stepping into the baby shoes of U. I . A. ROOM 18 34 R HHUXI In fron! rnzf. lfff In figfllfi Nlf-ml. N Vvutms. H. Illl,'l'iIllr0Il. IN. llallluluy.

There are basic operations in a shoe factory, just as there are fundamental studies in the eighth grade. As styles and materials change in the making of shoes, there are also changes in the curriculum and materials studied in the eighth grade. When the work is completed. there must be inspection of shoes and testing of pupils. There is departmental organization in both. In the factory each department makes a cer- tain part of a shoe. In the eighth grade the pupils go to a different teacher for each sub- ject. thus getting specialized training in each. Rules in regard to promptness. equipment. safety. and efficiency are necessary in both factory and school. Co-operation between pupils and teachers is as essential as co- operation of employees and employers in a factory. There are basic operations in factories and fundamental studies in school. Both must lwegin with ideas. ln school ideas are used in planning outlines for studies. which must he mastered. ln factories, from ideas are created patterns for shoes. From these plans and patterns. pupils and shoes progress through different steps. Finally shoes are pro- duced and pupils finish a school year. As years pass. styles and materials change in shoe-making. just as there are changes in the curriculum and materials used in eighth grade. A new unit in our English hooks is uGetting Along with Othersf, Social Studies is now to be called uflitizensliip Educationf, Visual instruction is still comparatively new. New materials in shoes are plastics and nylon. The styles are changed to fit the seasons. Change is necessary in order to have progress. Finally. the finished product must he in- spected or tested. Shoes are inspected to see if they are ready for sale. Eighth grade pupils are tested hy the State Regents examinations to see if they are ready for promotion. Basic standards must he met if readiness for ad- vancement is to he assured. Organization. basic operations and funda- mentals. changes in styles. curriculum and materials. and inspection or testing are all very essential both in the production of shoes and good eighth grade activities. The lmest- thought-of shoes and pupils are the ones that meet the tests of good quality. The 1951-52 eighth graders are aiming for that quality.

For some it was a new experience. but for others it was just a repetition of their two previous years in Junior High School. The Freshman class are very proud of all the participants in various activities. Prac- tically all the Junior Varsity Basketball team are boys from the Freshman class. LeRoy King. Donald Getzke. Raymond Andrews. Olen Strong, Stanley Sibley, and Philip Bab- cock are some of these boys. In wrestling our class president. Allen Bush and Earl Camp- hell helped to make 0wego's good record. Last fall in football, many boys used prac- tically a size larger walking shoes. The girls put on a new kind of walking shoe. the soft sole type. for participation in gym. Three girls entered into the spirit of sports with cheerleading. These girls were Elizabeth Doty. Catherine Simons. and Ann Lockwood. The Freshman class tried their new shoes in another activity as a number of them joined the Academy band. They were members of the marching hand which went to the football games and also played in the annual hand concert. Two students. James Skellenger and Joanne Moore put on their best shoes and walked into the Student Council as representa- tives of the Freshman Class Last fall we encountered something en- tirely different from anything we had experi- enced before. We were initiated hy the seniors. an experience we will never forget. That was the time when we wished we had shoes like the god Hermes. You can see that some students really made good use of their walking shoes for the first time and walked into the great halls of Owego Free Academy. Each year they hope to acquire another pair of shoes so that the class of l955 will be regarded as a noteworthy group hy other classes. l 1'11111 II 1 1 PI If 11 I XI1 NI XI111 N RUII, U U II 1-111k B I wlulr 1411 1111 1 R1111' If QI N1e11111111I l -X 11111 11t1111 N Rll 1 ll N R1111' 11u1 Il 1 1 1 R11111vu I N Pl 1111111 I Il l 1'1111t 11111 1 1 1,.

At first it seemed very strange and complicated. but very interesting. The graduating class of 1954 has chosen for their advisor one of the best known and well-liked teachers in the personage of Mrs. Nichols. Under the advice and councilship of their advisor. the Sophomore class has had a very happy year. With Mrs. Nichols. the class officers are: President. Dale Jackson: Vice- President. Donald Cross: Secretary. Ann Bar- ton: Treasurer. Neil Cillsong Student Coun- cil Representatives, Katherine Glaccum and Edward Clascow. Now that we have taken another big step forward in our career. we find the work grow- ing continually more difficult. Many of the future secretaries have been busy with their typing and shorthand: for with them. ride the future of the secretarial profession. The Future Farmers have learned how they might better feed this vast land. So that they might see this first hand. many have taken field trips to nearby farms. Those preparing for college have faced a triple threat - Latin. biology and geometry. However after much hard work they have been able to surpass these obstacles. The art and machine classes have also turn- ed out their productsfthe architects. design- ers. and mechanics of tomorrow. Many members have taken active parts in the band and choirs. There are also many promising boys who are bound to make their mark in the field of sports. whether it he has- ketball. football. or track. ln the last two years wrestling has also been added to the ranks of extra-curricular activities enjoyed here. Memories of the year of l95l-l952 will long be cherished in the days that lie ahead. l'rnnl mu lzll In II lzl lb I nllII NI X Iiutlvr. mn sun.

A. many shoes have trodden the pathways which the halls offered them. There have been old shoes. new shoes. big shoes. small shoes, fancy shoes. and just plain sneaks. all of which have helped in wearing down the ancient floors of this building. As we gaze at our feet protectors we notice that their heels are nearly worn down. but their souls will be able to with- stand the brunt of another year. Many members of the Junior Class were more than busy participating in the extra- curricular activities of our school. Besides be- ing active in Dramatics Club and working on the year-book. some donned the Indians, moccasins to beat a tom-tom or play a peace- pipe in the band. Others slipped into their ball-room slippers to play in the orchestra. Many of these students. along with members of the choir, were sent to the state contest. The results there were tremendous. for practically all came back with one or two ratings. In sports, the junior boys with sneaks and football and baseball shoes have fared ex- cellently. First of all, our football team con- sisted mainly of juniors. Then, on our splen- did basketball team. two juniors were on first string while five others backed them up with fine bench strength. We were also well rep- resented on our praise-worthy wrestling team which lost only two of its nine matches. Now it's about time for us to put 'on our best shoes to see what our remarkable class has brought forth in the world of society. Led by our very apt president. Jerry Lockwood. we have sponsored several dances. bake-sales. and many other things to raise money for our annual Junior Prom. at which one of our girls had the honor of stepping into Cinderella's slippers and being crowned 'ilunior Prom Queenf, Now that we have told you some of the juniors, wonderful deeds in ,Sl-'52, how about your glancing at our pictures? Vlihen you do. be sure to notice our neatly polished shoes.

As Frosh. with our mismated shoes and socks. a part of our improper outfits. we look- ed like Halloween pranksters. We may not have enjoyed that Initiation Week hut it help- ed us to get acquainted with our superior seniors. The next year we concentrated on con- quering hiology. geometry. Latin and other sophomore sulwjects. but we found these suh- jects more difficult than we had suspected. Next came our Junior Year. one more step toward Senior Study Hall. That year was full of money-raising events including the Junior Carnival which was a huge success. We also put on a Christmas Ball jointly with the Senior Class. Of course. the higgest and most important event of our Junior Year was the annual Junior Prom. Because everyone work- ed hard and faithfully to make ours one of the nicest in years. all who attended had a wonderful time. Ah! A seat in Senior Study Hall at last. Along with this honor came many responsi- lwilities and much hard work. One of the most enjoyed events ys as Freshman Initiation. a time of good clean fun. Because of the hard work and effort exerted by the whole Senior Class. especially the cast. our Senior Play was the suhject of many compliments. To keep alive the spirit of Thanksgiving. we held a dance. The Pumpkin Promenade. At the pres- ent time the air is full of plans for Commence- ment and the traditional Senior llall after- wards. linder the guidance of Mr. llrexler. our class advisor. we hope to make our Senior fflass one of the most successful in the history of fl. li. A. Dear Classmates. It is time to finish Chapter One in our hook of life and in doing so we are leaving hehind old friends and old memories. For many years we have worked and played together. shared each other's triumphs, and consoled each other's griefs. I am extremely proud to have had the honor of heing president of such a wonderful class. Thank you all for your faithfulness and cooperation. Before writing the end to the most important chapter of our lives. may I wish you the hest of luck always and success in whatever you undertake. Sincerely. .lowrvrz Wiirri: i , l V j za v I , I fl . , 494 Cal: f I 'QQ' 44,103 ' Q ff ,ph 4 1 .I . ,an fu I hy R ' xg .1 x . 214' ' 3 f. -, s of 16 - K X ,V .I fl' ?l ,O X sv 'n 1 1 Q2 :za -.N 'art' 1 -::n:Q.
