We come with our all to thee To mold our lives and build our hopes As thou wouldst have them be. The lessons thou dost give us here Will fit us well for life. In later years we'll still love and bless thee When in the great world's strife. Oh, Alma Mater, thy sons and daughters Will strive to honor thee. As time rolls on our glorious bright banner Is noble and pure and free; And when we come back in memories' eye To scenes that long are past. Well look with joy on the days that we spent Neath the hues of the red and black. 3 ?onecvwict The yearbook staff hopes that you will enjoy the 1957 Blackhawk from its out- standing picture cover to its last candid shots. May these pictures of your school life stir nostalgic memories in the future. Mr. LYLE WALSH 'Dedication To Mr. Lyle Walsh, we,—the high school student body—humbly dedicate this memoir of the 1957 school year at Oxford Academy. It is with affection, pride, and joy that we pay tribute to so zealous a man and true friend. 5 We of the 1957 yearbook staff wish to thank everyone who has helped to make this yearbook a success in the birth year of the Yearbook Association. The organization includes representative staff members from grades nine through twelve. A myriad to details connected with this new venture makes us especially appreciative of the assistance given by our advisors, Mrs. Tefft and Mrs. Adams, who spent many hours with the staff planning and laying out the 57 Black- hawk. 6 r ELEMENTS' CHEMISTRY Mr. ERNEST G. YOUMANS '20 District Superintendent I want to extend my warmest congratulations to those boys and girls who won college scholarships this past year. In doing so they have brought honor to themselves, their parents, their teachers, their school and their community. No other school in Chenango County can boast of a higher percentage of scholarship winners. ‘Soevui £ LEFT to RIGHT: W. Hayden, Jr.; B. Whittaker, Clerk; L. Seymour, President; B. Marshman, R. Race.

The visiting educator was U. Minn Hpyu, Assistant Lecturer in State Teachers' Training Institute, Kyaukpyu, Burma. Both teachers and students enjoyed very much his sincere, warm and friendly relationship. His visit in the school and community will long be cherished. It is genuinely hoped that U. Hpyu gained an under- standing knowledge of the American educational system and a better insight into our American way of life . 25 jsan� + Lyle Walsh Senior Advisor Joyce Marble Senior Advisor 26 CLASS OFFICERS: Ted Tinker, President; Carol Raedel, Vice-President; Arthur Kennedy, Secretary; John Wallace, Treasurer.

We elected Rita Kaelin as president of the class, Joyce Johnson as vice-president, Ann Jackson as secretary and Dick Clintsman as our treasurer. We put on a dance with an auction, selling boxes wrapped in pretty decorations with very inexpensive things inside. This was most successful. In September of 1954 we entered our sophomore year. Miss Sperry and Mr. Walsh were still with us. Our officers were Joyce Johnson, president; Carol Raedel, vice-president; Ann Jackson, secretary; and Alice Schadewald, treasurer. That year we sold book covers. We gave a Valentine dance which was very successful. We stepped into our junior year in September of 1955 and learned that the next two years would be full of hard work and fun. Mr. Walsh and Miss Sperry were with us to help and advise. We elected Richard Clintsman, president; James Jones, vice-president; Priscilla Barber, secretary; and Carol Raedel, treasurer. Dorette Abresch was vice-president of the local Student Association and Susquenango Student Council League. Our magazine subscription campaign was a big success since we sold $1,600 worth and were presented with a plaque displayed in the trophy case. Joyce Ingraham received a trophy for selling the most subscriptions. Next we gave a very successful cage dance. Our class rings were re- ceived in January 1956. In May we held our Junior Prom, with the theme, Dutch Polonnaise. In our glorious senior year we elected Edward Tinker, president; Carol Raedel, vice-president; Ar- thur Kennedy, secretary; and John Wallace, treasurer. We were under the guidance of Mr. Walsh and Mrs. Marble. Our major project for the year was our senior play which was a delightful comedy entitled Our Hearts Were Young and Gay. The play was presented beautifully under the direction of Mrs. Mc- Nulty, Arlene Meyer, and other teachers. We discovered hidden talent in our class. Dorette Abresch was editor-in-chief of the 57 Blackhawk” and president of the Student Association. Joyce Johnson was head typist for the yearbook. We chose our class colors, baby blue and silver; the class flower, orchid; class song, Graduation Day, and class motto, With the past behind and a bright future ahead.” We are anticipating that wonderful and memorable night, June 24, 1957, when we shall received our diplomas. We know that we are going to miss Oxford Academy; and now we look forward to a bright future. 29 70 id t td 07e4tCUK€Ht We, the Class of 1957, being of sound mind and body, bequeath Dorette Abresch's cake baking ability to Para Baroer . . .

The instrumentation of the Senior Band has been expanded by the addition of several new instruments. This was done with the eventual goal of a full symphonic band. A Junior Band of eighty members has been formed, also. These music students, all from the lower grades, will form the Senior Band in a few years. This year has seen the beginning of a first— class band which, in the future, will continue to bring honor to its Alma Mater. FIRST ROW: Mr. Herfort, Advisor; E. Holdridge, President; L.

This year we won our last game but, athletically speak- ing, lost our previous ones. This may present a dismal pic- ture to many people; but we can't help wondering if, without real- izing it perhaps, our boys haven't actually won more than as if they had had an undefeated season by being trained through experience to suffer disappointment and shrug it off—going on playing the game of life as if nothing had happened. Through their defeats, these boys have developed the moral fibre to play the game—win, lose or draw- like MEN. Tom Champlin James Jones 63 l VuUtet ‘S Z44et6 tUl (2 - Eleven boys reported for varsity basketball; five were veterans. Jack Seiler and John Dutcher were elected co-captains for the year. After eight days of practice the season opened at Guilford, yielding a win for OACS. This was a non- league game. Greene was the first league game, and we lost by four points. Oxford defeated Whitney Point, the pow- er in the league and we expect a good season. FIRST ROW: Jack Seiler and John Dutcher 1 evi ity FIRST ROW: A. McNitt, P. Estelow, B. Drumm, M. Webb, D.

In league competition they are 1 for 4. The co-captains this year are Jim Fleming and Jim Hodge. Although the boys do not boast a too impressive record, all of the games have been very close. The main purposes of J. V. Basketball are to teach the boys to play together as a team and to gain experience for varsity competition. The team has six games left to play on its sched- ule.
