The administration of the school attempts to put into action the policies formulated by the Board of Education, who represent the people ot the community. The supervising principal represents the Board ot Education in carrying out these policies. Thus, policies tor the greatest number ot pupils must receive precedence over those policies which would benefit only a tew individuals. By providing rules and regulations, and by delegating to teachers and other staff members the authority to carry them out, your school community lite prepares you to follow the rules and regulations of civic and occupational life. As the Village Board sets the pattern tor village government, as the Board ot Trustees ot an industry or business sets the policy tor its enterprise, so too the Board of Education acts in school policy making. Laws or rules ot government or industry are enforced by representatives to whom such authority is delegated, just as rules ot our school are enforced by the teachers. A sense of appreciation for the value of administration in maintaining a balanced program and the desire to cooperate voluntarily with your admin- istration are character traits which will greatly assist you in the present and in tomorroW's World. ,757 7 'fQn i 7Q h+ 4 X Elf? 42: I ' :Wifi ,'j,:7H ,yxb Y? , 52? ,611 'ff5?I?a 5 X, ' V 3 1 iz 'L ffixp I ffl 7 'ik' . 7'- l,3v'.ffyf7:.'lv' fffnflx in pig e:'L.Ar'- fm. -,.,.-5 Q, ',,.

T ,,,. i 'fT s5'3f CHARLES W. CLOWE Supervising Principal We all recognize that education is the chief agency ot progress and that education, Within limits, makes men and women what they are. Each of us is largely dependent on our education tor any success We may enjoy in life. Painted Post High School endeavors to create conditions which enable us to develop our personalities and to make as effective as possible the powers with which we have been endowed, GUIDANCE This year :aw the inauguration of a new guidance program under the direction of Mr. lofn Bush. The newly constructed guldance office liecarne the focal point of t' is prograrn. Early in the year all frcsl men and seniors were gfven mental ability testo. The seniors were also given scholastic aptitude tests. Many high school pupils who were uncertain as to what kinds of work they would like to pursue in the future were given Kuder Preference Tests to help them find what they were interested in. Other pupils were given aptitude tests to assist them in finding out what they could do. An individual folder record system for each pupil was centralized in the Guidance Cftice. Pcrtinent information concerning each pupil was deposited in these folders. The 'olloac Catalan: library was augmented and centralized in the Guidcnfe Office as was 'Fo cccipatonal file. lrfornnaticn concerning many of the 20,003 occupations listed by the feifus, was given to the pupils upon request. The college information center was also wldely used. Persfrcl counseling interviews granted upon request of the pupils helped to clear up rrcry oduztment problems. Other counseling interviews were initiated by the office in an ottcrnyt to clarify some of the pupils' difficulties and assist them to make a better adjustment. Vlffth the ccofcration cf the Student Council, a Faculty Committee on Citizenship and Mr. Clowe, a citifnslip nnorklrg system was set up to mark every pupil on his citizenship every roikfng poiiod. Eulletin boards and bulletins on schools, occupations and citizenship were prepared and submitted to the pupils for their assistance. All pupils from grades eight through eleven were given assistance in making out next ears schedule pifgroms. ln tle case of the eighth grade pupils a week of reviewing the Fiffrreit courses Cf the hich sclcol program preceded the registration. ln all grades registration wlich recuired tle selection of a course of study was accompanied by an interview with tlie pupil. The Cufdorce Cffice was set up as an aid in helping pupils evaluate their own gualifica' tfcns ard inteiestsg to relate these assets to the requirements of occupations in which the individ- ucl pupils can succeed and in which jobs are available: and to assist them to prepare for those ccufations. Its constant use during the year showed it was making progress toward this goal.

Man finds little time to better the social Welfare of himself and others, as he is too busy getting and spending money. You are fortunate in being a member of a rather select group known as Your Class. ln the four years during which you Will associate with your class you will develop many lasting friendships. Your class will help you to be a better social individual and you in turn should assist in creating a better spirit of fellowship in your class. You will learn in your class, how to live with other people. During your four years of living with your classmates you will be taught by experience what other people like and dislike. You will be asked to help make your class the best in the history of the school. Try to make it that, for better classes will mean a better Painted Post High School. Preparation for tornorroW's world must include living together as social human beings. It must include being a member of a group, electing the leaders of that group and abiding by the decisions that your leaders reach after due democratic deliberations. Seniors, your future is now. Iuniors, Sophomores and Freshmen, yours is the World of tomorrow: Prepare for it now by taking a more active part in your class activities. .qu 1 f f C, 5 114 1 f P W 1 4 5 r P f F 1 1 .rfyh V f- ff, 1' ff?

PHELPS, Advisor CHARLES TUCKER 4 I ,IZQQQ A ,rw C' THE SENIOR CLASS HISTORY One of the most memorable events in the saga of Painted Post High School was in the year of l944 when 62 Wild lndians entered through its portals to take on the role of Freshmen. ' Mrs. Mitchell, under the guise of Class Advisor, tried to keep us under control with the cooperation of Tom Kennedy as president, Cherry Claxton as vice-president, Shirley Flanders as secretary, and Ed Griffin as treasurer. Our first social experience as a class began with a skating party followed by a more romantic Valentine party which formed many sentimental attachments. Thus, ended our first year in high school. To insure a successful year as Sophomores we chose Howard Klock as president with Betty Cutler as vice-president and Hollis Law as Secretary- Treasurer. To guide us through our troubled waters we elected Miss Hogue as Class Advisor. Our parties were limited to a skating party at the Spinning Wheel and a hike followed by a weiner roast. During our Sophomore year, four of our boys left school to serve in the armed forces. ' ' Our lunior year started out with a bang ! When the smoke cleared away we found as president Elmer Potter with Willard Morse seated in the vice-president's chair and Ruth Tillman seated in the secretary-treasurer's position. Mr. Phelps found himself a counselor during this crucial period, when our most important aim was to raise money to finance our Washington trip. The selling of Christmas cards and the publishing of the Poster helped us to realize this aim. ln order to outshine our predecessors in publishing the best Poster yet! we elected the able lohn l..eValley as editor and lack Smith as man- aging editor. To break the monotony of all this hard work, we had a square dance and another skating party. To lead our class through the final and most important year of school, we elected as president, lohn l..eValleyg vice-president, Bud Bonbrakeg secre- tary, Shirley Keachy and treasurer, Cherry Claxton. As Mr. Phelps survived the Iunior year and appeared none the Worse for the experience, he was unanimously chosen to supervise affairs for our class. As class activities we enjoyed two dances at which refreshments were served. Every month representatives were sent to the Woman's Club and Rotary. One of our final accomplishments for the year was the Senior Play, The Daffy Dills which was presented March 31 and April l. With a superb cast, we had a very successful accomplishment. As We near the end of our high school daze fdaysl, we all look for- ward to our trip to Washington. Shirley Keach CLASS WILL We, the Senior class of Painted Post High School of the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty-seven, being of sound mind, hereby make our last will and testament.

SENIOR CLASS PBOPI-IECY Wow! Alarm clocks are the most disgusting things aren't they, waking a person out of a sound sleep like that. A wonderful dream of my school- mates was just being re-enacted. Well, I'll just defy that alarm clock and go back to dream of that wonderful Senior Class of l947. Ah, here I am walking down main street of the town called Senior Class, '47 . Say, look at the sign on that big building, Le Valley Chemical lndus- tries, Ltd. Must be those rumors we heard were true-john must have bought out Mr. How of How Chemical. Yes, john, your discovery of that new wonder chemical sulfadium bisulfite-nitrate solution certainly put you on top of the world. We won't tell that it was an accident that took place one Friday morning, third period, in the Chemistry lab. I can see that Elmer Potter did well on his high school friendships. Nevill's meat market was taken over by Elmer after a three-year apprentice- ship course in the store. It is now advertised in brilliant vari-colored lights Elmer's and Dottie's . And notice the new addition in the meat market division-Earl Little Butcher Pearsall. He grew rich after the patenting of a plastic which is impervious to the cutlery of the butcher's trade. Butchers all over the nation have bought his plastic gloves, and that has brought him a fortune. His butchering is now just a sideline to keep him busy. Inci- dentally, he has installed a bowling alley in his mansion where he con- sistently bowls 200 games, each time he keeps score. Say, look at that Major General coming down the street. He's General Charles, Charlie Blank. I knew the lure of the Marine Corps would call him back. He is in charge of training and the rumors that come floating back say that training is really tough. Take for example, pushups -instead of 2, they now do O. He's applied for service in the Chinese theater now, probably to hunt up some old buddies . Write and tell me how Foo is when you get there, Charlie . There's a large plant there on the other side of the street. And there's a sign on the side of the plant+David Owen Wilkinson, General Manager. Wait, here he comes now, and does he look hen-peckedl What a home life he must have, but l believe l have the reason. lt isn't his wife, the former Ruth Breen, but the maid, Alice Potter, for the domestic servant problem has extended even into that far distant future. He sure hates to lose that wonder- ful maid. Besides, she's beautiful. The Wilkinson twins are now attending school, and Ruth helps them with their typing homework. She's some teacher, believe me! Every once in a while, when Ruth gets the urge, she goes out and takes some pictures for the newspapers, and usually wins nation-wide acclaim for her efforts. ' Now we come to the Grand Theater, and up there in the lights in big letters is the name, Sherry Flanders alias Mrs. Rock-Bottom, wife of the millionaire of the same name. Lately, she has been voted the Broadway en- chantress of the year, after her splendid performance in the revised edition of the hilarious comedy, The Hilarious Hoolihansf' There's an interesting sign, Square Dancing, Tonite and Every Nite. Cedric Stewart and Charles Phelps went in together to form a corporation to promote the furthering of square dancing. From a small start at Cooper's, they now lease Madison Square Garden for the express purpose of having Square Dances there. Chuck Phelps is the man who handles the adver- tising end of the deal and Cedric is in charge of business matters. Lately I hear that square dancing is being thought of as the Great National Past- time. Congratulations, boys. l Ever hear of Gil Dodds, the Galloping Parson? Well, we now have Willard Morse, the Galloping Ghost to take his place. As all great athletes have an inspiration, so does Willard: guess who?MBetty Waibel. He com- petes only in the long distance events, and he has broken nearly every record ever made on a race track. At the Olympic Games, he was voted the outstanding man on the track and was given a gold medal to prove it to all doubters. Lloyd Cisco, who lives in our town, has revolutionized the whole system of farming at his experimental station, up near Lindley. His new crops, produced with a wonder vitamin, have caused him to become famous throughout the country. He has been invited to lecture at all the agricultural colleges throughout the country, and has even been offered a position as consultant for the government agricultural service. Well, look here! After winning that All-American forward slot for three years in a row, Tom Kennedy turned pro and played for the Rochester Royals for a few years. Look what he is doing now, though. He has a sign up saying, Kennedy's Southside Gym, Come in fat and go out slim. Remember the trip that the Seniors take each year? Well, when they arrived in Washington, lack Hogue and Ted Wittig were both taken as contestants on a quiz program. lNeither won the sixty-four dollar question, incidentallyj At that time two big radio magnates were listening: one, the head of Gillette Red Blades, and the other, the President of the American Tobacco Company. As a result of that broadcast, both boys gained new jobs. lack is now head sports announcer for Gillette Red Blades, broadcast- ing all major sports events. Ted took a position away from E. E. Spoone of Lexington, Kentucky. You guessed it! He now is a tobacco auctioneer, living under the alias of T. W. Williams of Southern City, Alabama. Both of them make their summer homes here in Senior City. lust seeing all of these Seniors who have made good makes me wish for a drink. Guess l'll go over to that drug store and get me a coke. Ye Gads, look! Bonbrake Drug Stores, lnc., You name it, we have it. l was afraid that working at Quigley's Drug Store would cause him to do some drastic thing in regard to his future. Whoops! Pardon me! l see Bud is the head Pharmacist, that's swell. I was afraid that he might be a coke slinger. Proceeding from the drug store, I see the District Attorney's officeg and look at the name on the door! George Robinson, Mr. D.A. The people around here tell me that he has made every one of his cases a conviction. He must be a tough man to come up against. Remember how he could argue. I hear that he is Working on a tough case now, called the Pink Pansy Case. Someone stole all of Caroline Knapp's rare pink pansies from her flower bed. That ought to be worth a ten-year sentence in the big-house, hadn't it, Mr. D. A.? Look out for that big trailer truck! It nearly ran over you! Say the name on that truck looks familiar. The sign on it says, The Tucker, Blen- cowe, and Harris Trucking Co. I always suspected that those three would get together and make up a good business organization. Rumors are going around that Charles, Howard and Eathel have a contract to carry all the produce for the LeValley Chemical Works. There's a new kind of shop down the street. lt's a shoe shop, but it sells a different kind of shoes than most of us wear. The proprietor. Fred Casterline, caters only to short people. I-Ie sells the Casterline Elevator Shoe. The secret of success, Fred tells me is that you have to be in the same predicament as your customers. A tall person won't succeed in the elevator shoe business. Yes, you too, can be tall when you go out with that six-foot girly don't wear stilts, wear Casterline's Elevator Shoes. Down the street farther, I stopped in to see a concert being presented by the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. It was notable that everybody in it had brown hair except the people who lived in our town, Senior Class, '47. There were three people: Georgia Dode Cross, Ruth Red Tillman, and Dick Goldilocks Conoverinsky. Dode Cross was blowing her trom- bone so hard that her golden tresses were blowing about from the excess air coming out of her ears. Redhead Number two is Ruth Tillman, and her tinkling flute. It seems that Clancy runs the drug store in between the times when Red is out on concert tours. Our third red-head is Goldilocks Con- over, the added the insky to go with his position, for he is the conductor of this orchestral. Yes, we see him on the podium with his flaming locks. He is a long hair, now, and he almost looks the part. Well, about this time, I decided I would visit the residential section of town. I walked about three blocks ,when I suddenly saw a beautiful house, with a large fence around it and a sign stating, Riverside Rambler's Rest . There was a line of men who seemed eager to get into the place. Inside were the five Riverside Beauties: Margaret Cook, Beverly Abbott, Pat House, and Helen and Eleanor Durkin. You would think that they were the Five Magnets from the way the men were attracted to the house. You know, there's something queer over that way. Look at the big building in back of that small house. Ah! There's a sign over the door. The Andrew's and Reed Soap Works. I can plainly see that Dolores and Sally haven't forgotten some of their old chemistry. tFor you non-chem students, that's what they loved to make when they were in Chemistry! I had heard of the Andreed Soap Products, but I never thought they would be doing that. From all this walking I'm getting hungry. I believe I'll go into that small grocery store and get something to eat. There's the storekeeper and it's Caroline Knapp. Caroline tells me that for a hobby, she now raises flowers. Recently she had some rare pansies stolen from her garden, and she said that the District Attorney was working on the case. Say, I almost forgot that I was here for something to eat. There's some good-looking cookies over there Cno, not that kindl that I think I'll buy. Notice the label on them, packaged by the Smith and Cutler Baking Co. Could that be Wilma and Betty? Well, even if they did make them, the cookies are pretty good. When I was in the store, I happened to notice a very nice bungalow across the street and I asked Caroline whose it was. She said that Florence Miller lived there. Suddenly it dawned on me who that was. It was Florence Cross who had been married to Tom Miller. I had been noticing quite a few signs advertising the best boarding house in town. Finally I came to that superlative structure and who do you suppose was running it? Why Phyllis Lake and Rosalind Carey, of course. Believe me, they have the best home-cooked meals in town. My wanderings have brought me back to the main street now, and I see some different shops, now. First of all, I noticed a quaint sign, Downy Rest, lnnerspring Mattresses proprietor, Patty Ann Hassenplug. I went in and talked to Pat for a little while, and I noticed that she seemed excited. Finally she asked me if I had seen the latest issue of Better Houses and Plots, and I told her that I hadn't. She was excited because the girl she roomed with had written an article about neat and clean housekeeping. Make a guess who it was. Why our own Velma Cole, of course! Flash! The Pink Pansy Bandit the D. A. was hunting has just been found. He turned out to be none other than lack Smith. It seems he went berserk trying to finish that Senior Will and Prophecy on time. He never quite recovered and was always playing practical jokes on Caroline and other people. Another of the new stores I saw, was the Elite Dress Shop. I went in there and saw to my surprise, Lois Iohnson and Shirley Keach. Vifhen they feel like it, they sell their creations to the big department stores in New York City. Mostly, however, they save their stunning creations for their old classmates to wear. The girls had one queer hat there that I noticed, and I asked them what it was for. They said that it had an installed pocket to carry a leash, which the wives could snap onto their husbands, to keep them from running away. Two doors down the street, I saw the sign, Elocution Lessons inquire within. So, I inquired within, Cbeing a trusting soull and I found Barbara Gaiss. She plans shortly to begin a series of discussions about the country on the subject Learn to read. You too, can be happy. If this tour is a success Barbara plans to go on a world-wide speaking tour. Finally, I came to the circus that was in town, and it was there that I gained the biggest surprise of the entire trip. There was Charmaine Claxton, leading the parade in her drum majorette costume. It was really worth a second look, tool After the parade, I asked her how she happened to join the circus. Then she told me Cin strictest confidencel that she had promised to marry two men back home. She couldn't marry two men because that would be bigamy, so she decided to run away. The beautiful and skilled bareback rider in the circus was Audrey Hi--yo Crumm. 'I-ler love of horses and different men caused her to become a performer in the circus, because of its constantly shifting location. In the circuses, they no longer have Lucky Teeter, they now have Skillful Baird. He specializes in the wrecking of old station wagons. He comes roaring off a ramp twenty feet high, sticks out his arms on each side of the car, flies along a bit and then hits the ground. Then the car blows up, catapaults him out of the seat for a distance of about two thousand feet and th-en he comes floating down on a parachute. Quite an act, eh? Coming out of this circus, I looked across the street and saw a store that bought and sold music. Out in front ,is the sign- Piano Lessons with the slogan, You bring them in, we'1l teach them no matter what the cost to you. After inquiring Within about this form of slavery, I found out that maestro, Philip Wilson, along with Professor William Thompson have gone into business with each other and are having a success. Phil teaches them the music, along With his playing in Carnegie Hall, and Bill takes the deviltry out of them before they go in to see the maestro Well all dreams must come to an end, sooner or later. A glass of extremely cold Water was the undoing of my dream and believe me, what a terrible ending. Anyhow, you have gained a pre-View of our lives and so judge yourselves accordingly. For the sake of the World's sanity, don't lead the lives that We have Written about. 6 IUNICDR CLASS With a faint mirage of the Nation's Capitol in the background, the lunior class started its third year of activity. At the beginning of the year We elected officers which are as follows President: Don Potter Vice-President: lean McAllister Treasurer: Lois Brooks Secretary: Betty Waibel Mr. Bush was unanimously chosen class advisor. Our first undertaking as a class was the sale of hot dogs at the football games. At Christmas time we sold Christmas cards and wrappings. Both of them proved to be very successful. Next began the work on the Poster, which we hope to be the best ever published. Bill McClurg was chosen editor-in-chief and Ioe Frick as business manager. ln every activity which brings praise to our Alma Mater, the Iuniors are well represented. Our basketball team was made up of many Iunior boys. This year, the Iunior girls won interclass basketball. Although we didn't have many parties this year, the few that we had were very successful. We are looking forward to even more success next year.

The officers under Whose rule we have been very happy are: President: Fred Whitcomb Vice-President: Bud Preston Treasurer: Evelyn Rice Secretary: Connie Ellison A few days before St. Valentine's Day in February, we celebrated our iirst party. The gymnasium was attractively and unexpectedly decorated by ambitious members of the food committee. We plan to hold one or two more get-togethers sometime during the second semester. As usual, we have a large number in the class participating in sports, and although not always the Winners, the year can be considered successful.

I FREsHt.M:,:A CLASS if ,. q I Webster's dictionary tells us that fresh means in good condition or strong and active , While men means the plural of man . This definition fits our Freshman class. There are two boys to every girl. This was evident when the boys Walked off with most of the offices. However in the choice of our advisor We elected Miss Crants unanimously. ln October We held a Halloween Party at the school. Many uninvited spooks and goblins were in attendance Cupper classmenl. In the spring We held another class party. ' We had a big year in sports even though both boys and girls lost at interclass basketball. Mike Tillman and Paul King Went to Prattsburg to play in the badminton semi-finals. Mary Louise Young made the Big Eight in bowling. Six of our boys played on the Iunior Varsity basketball team. v Still in good condition we look forward to a successful Sophomore year. X . 0 .

An important part of the high school program is devoted to exploration to discover those activities which will lead to enjoyment in later life. Oftentimes these activities may indicate occupational pursuits in which a student could be successful.

This year March 3lst and April lst, the Senior Class produced the hilarious comedy, The Daffy Dills. The play was filled with humorous situations, keeping the audience in a rollicking mood for two hours throughout all three acts. The story revolved around an average American family, the Dills, in an average large mid-western town. The Dill family, consisting of William Thompson as father Dill, Ruth Tillman as his seventeen year old daughter Carol: lack Hogue and Barbara Gaiss as the thirteen year old twins, Dudley and Doris, and lohn LeValley as the sixteen year old son, Rodney, were taken care of in a rather lax manner by loving Grandmother Dill, portrayed by Caroline Knapp. Surprising his family by telling them of his secret marriage to Elaine Escott, portrayed by Ruth Breen, Mr. Dill left immediately on a business trip. During his absence the shocked and enraged Dill family who wanted anything but a stepmother, made elaborate plans to get rid of her. These included pretenses of insanity and of poverty. Upon arriving, Elaine turned the tables on the family and beat them at their own game by acting more insane than they and by playing all sorts of jokes on them. On the same day as their new stepmother's arrival, cousin Maude arrived and was ordered out of the house by the autocratic and dominating Elaine. 'With the return of father Dill from his business trip, came a surprise to the audience as well as to the Dill family, for Elaine and Cousin Maude had switched identities. Cousin Maude, learning of the Dill's plans to frighten their stepmother away, pretended to be Elaine. Not until the very end of the third act did the audience learn of the ruse. The surprise ending of the play caught the audience unawares and ended the play with a hilarious note. SEN ICR HOME- MAKING ln the study hall around 11:40, when one little character's tummy begins to growl and groan and another tummy moans, a captivating aroma floats into the study hall and lingers under our noses.

Under the direction of Mr. Chappell, we have this year strived to attain symphonic calibre with a thirty-seven member string section backed by a fine array of brass, Woodwinds and percussions. Mr. Chappell has given each of us a finer appreciation of good orchestral music. We opened the fall season with an appearance at the annual Public Speaking Contest. in October, thirteen members were accepted for membership in the 125-piece Sectional All State Orchestra at Vestal where a concert was presented under the direction of Charles Budersheim of Clinton, N. Y. In December, five members were selected to play in the 100-piece All State Orchestra at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester. There a concert was presented in the Eastman Theatre under the direction of Dr. Howard Hanson, head of the Eastman School.

And why not? The choir had presented an excellent Christmas Vesper Service: several representatives of the organization had attended the All-State Festival at Vestal, N. Y.: and the presentations of the choir itself at the Hornell Festival in early May were commendable, while- some of its members captured honors as soloists. Officers, who were elected at the beginning of the season are: President, Bud Bonbrakeg Vice-President, Chuck Lagerbomg Secretary, Marilyn Hanley: and Treasurer, Doris Breen. 'A ' MA1'tcH1No BAND This school year found us quite busy with our job of playing and maneuvering at all eight football games. Under the capable leadership of Drum Major, Charmaine Claxton, and utilizing the novel ideas of Mr. Chappell, we presented a series of field formations including a bow and arrow and a square dance. The Senior and Iunior Majorettes also contributed greatly to our fine appearance. They presented a sparkling twirling pageant at the spring Band Concert. The annual Memorial Day parade brought another successful year to a close.

Throughout the year every pupil at Painted Post participates in sports activities unless excused by a doctor's re- quest. Many of these activities take place during regular class periods. Other sports activities occur during noon hours and after the regular school session. The physical development which thus occurs better prepares pupils to face the World of tomorrow. The ability to win or lose with grace is developed by competing in athletics. Post teams are known throughout the State for their clean play, good sports- manship, and ability to play the game. Athletics require a strict adherence to the training routine established by the coach. They also require the socrifice of individual action for team cooperation. Players learn that action for the good of the team must supercede what any one person wants to do. ln competitive athletics leadershihp traits are developed. Whether it be varsity, interclass, or intramural competition the team must have a captain. For the benefit of the team the captain must be the leader. If he is to gain true leadership he must understand his group and keep them Working in harmony. The example set by Post teams and their coaches, the benefit derived from regular physical activities and the leadership and fellowship developed through participation in athletics should prepare for a healthier, happier World of tomorrow. ,fff,f,. , ff' f, 417 fj'ff', 7, 'fl 'A Ji If . f X 771 -' ' 1, f 1 ,137 ,,, f 1, 1 - I :kg X f ,Z A ff' cg 1-, ff A' 'x ff' 7' Z1 9 X 7 '.

BASEBALL, l946 Last year's team brought to Painted Post the Championship of Section 5, a feat that had never occured in the history of the Painted Post High School. This Wonderful accomplishment was due to the superb pitching of Bill McCarty and the excellent support given to him by his teammates. The season opened with a 4-2 defeat handed to us by C. F. A. The team soon showed that they could play superior ball when they defeated Northside at the Post by a 5-4 score. With their spirits greatly boosted our team traveled to Elmira Southside but were again defeated 6-2. The high- light of this game was a four hundred foot home run by Bill McCarty. Next came our first tilt with Addison. Behind the pitching of Dick Pero, the Addison squad gave us quite a scare but we finally won with a score of 2-l. Next in line was our third and final defeat, a 7-3 victory for E. F. A. From then on the Post squad was undefeated. The first in their string of ten straight victories was Bath, who was invited down and sent home defeated by 6-O. Next in line came C. F. A. who was trounced 5-l. The third straight victory was the first game against Hornell. lt was played in Hornell and it turned out to be Bill McCarty's first no-hit, no-run game. The score was 7-0. Our fourth straight victory was a return engagement with Hornell at Post. Again we ended in the long end of a 6-O score. Next came our return game with Addison, a l3-5 victory for us. Sixth in line was the long postponed Northside game, played at Northside. This contest Was a hitfest with both teams scoring continually. The final score rested at 12-8 again in the Post's favor. The last scheduled game was with Bath and it was played at Bath. Behind the pitching of McCarty and Lagerbom, We returned home with a 7-3 victory, the county A title and the right to play in the quarter finals against Wellsville. The Wellsville game turned out to be the second no-hit, no-run game for McCarty, as the Post won again 5-0. With the right to enter the semi-finals at Rochester in our hands, we made good and returned from the Rochester Red Wing Stadium with a l-0 victory over Geneva. This ninth straight victory put before us the opportunity of winning the Section 5 N. Y. S. P. H. S. A. A. trophy. At the end of the regulation seven innings the game was tied at 3-3 and before the end of the game the lights had to be turned on. ln the first half of the twelfth inning Bill Beauter tripled with two men on base to make the score 5-3. This left it up to McCarty who then struck out the next three for a total of eighteen strike-outs in twelve innings. This 5-3 victory over Webster brought to Painted Post the baseball crown of Section 5 N. Y. S. P. H. S. A. A. and a trophy to remember this great team by.

Dick Reed Coach McGill One of the things they do best! FOOTBALL, l946 This year luck ran the other way for the Post squad. A few days before the initial game, half-back Ray Cotter, one of the few veterans, cracked a collar bone and was lost for the season. Then, after a few games had been played, veteran center, Rock Schiller twisted his knee and was also through playing for the season. Despite these handicaps ,the team made a fine showing. The season opened against Hornell under lights. Hornell had a heavy team compared to the light and fast team from the Post. With this the deciding factcr, Hornell won the game by a score of 6-0. Following the Hornell tussle was the game with Waverly at Painted Post. ln it we lost our big chance to score in the final minutes of play when a Post pass was intercepted on the Waverly three yard line. This broke the heart of all the Post players as well as the spectators because Waverly had scored only one touchdown. The final score ended in the favor of Waverly 6-O. The next game also turned out to be a loss for the Post, at Northside. The first half was close but in the second half a few breaks for Northside apic' ly led to their clinching the game. As the final whistle blew, Northside led by a score of 25-6. Our fourth game was played against Elmira Heights. The game was played under a continual downpour at Elmira Heights. The final score was l5-O against the Post. Following this exceedingly wet game was the game against Towanda. This game was played on the hottest day of the season. We were again defeated. This time the score was 25-6. However in our next game, against CEA., we made a better showing of teamwork. Even though they were heavily favored we held them to a 6-6 tie at halftime. Nevertheless in the second half their trick plays and fine teamwork proved superior to ours as the Post fell 26-6. ln our next to the last game which was played at Painted Post against Owego, the Post squad showed that they had gained much knowledge on how to play football. ln this closely contested game the deciding factor was the conversion after a touchdown, as the Post squad fell before the heavy favorites 21-20. The last game of the season saw the Post squad unleash all their powers to again retain the jug by a 33-O score. With this victory ended high school football for these players who leave this year: Elmer Potter, Lyman Bement, Tom Kennedy, and George Robinson. With the rest of the team returning next year, we hope to have a very succssful season. djpvydniq ' F'irst row: Asst. Mgr.
