OUR BUILDING PROGRAM In the first issue of the Panorama” the school history brought us up to the present cen- 1 school system. On Tuesday, April 18, 1950, voting on the proposed bond issue of $549,000 s held. This bond issue to cover the cost of both the building and equipment in Hopkinton and the addition in Parishville, was accepted by the district taxpayers by the vote of 45 to 12? Upon the approval of the bond issue by the taxpayers, the architect, Thomas P. Philips f Watertown, began working on the final specifications for the buildings. These specifica- tions were accepted by the State Education Department and sent out. On the 22nd of March, 1951 the bids from various firms were received and opened. The lowest bidders all from Wa- tertown, New York were: Deline Construction Company for the general contract, George Hyde Company! Incorporated, for heating, ventilating, and plumbing, and Barber Electrics, to do oi«otrical work. However, the total of the bids was too high. Although the total was below the bond is- sue about $12,000, it was still necessary for lower bids because there are expenses which must be met for equipment of the buildings. There are also architect fees, insurance and interest on the bond during con- struction, pay for drilling wells, and cost of securing the bond which will guarantee completion of the work if it becomes impossible for the construction company to do so. Representatives of the Board of Education went to Albany and consulted with Dr. Essex, Head of the Division of School Buildings and Grounds. Substitutions and changes were made and presented to the architect and bidders who figured a new estimate because of the changes made. On April 5, 1951, the contractors and architect met with the Board of Education. At this time the new figures were sub- mitted and approved by the Board of Education. Here are some of the figures first submitted by the vari- ous bidders and also of the final estimates. General contract: L. W. Charebois Company bid only on the Parishville building, $363,000; Deline Construction Company bid on both buildings (low), $393,600. , % , Heating, Ventilating, and Plumbing: George Hyde Company, Incorporated, (low) $105,840; Ryan Plumbing and Heating Company, $134,242. Electrical: Barber Electrics (low), $38,247; W. W. Gettys, Fouses Point, $44,000. Total of low bids is $537,687. The final figures submitted were: Deline, $364,145; Hyde, $99,190; Barber, $35,315. The plans and details for a further development in our school system have been completed and in the near future not only people of Parishville will rejoice as they did when the pre- sent building was completed, but also there will be many other taxpayers of the now centra- lized school district of Parishville-Hopkinton-Stockholm and Potsdam who will join in and share the pride of very modern and new educational facilities. The ground for the new building in Hopkinton will be broken in the near future. 5 Mrs. Norva LaFountain - Madrid Training Class Miss Laura Johnson - Hope College, A. B.

Then Jeanne Bump entered the class in 1941 when the school was centra- lized. The majority of the class joined us in 7th and Sth grade. When we entered the freshman class in 1947 there were quite a few new students. Irene Ashlaw, Thomas Bradish, Edward Hazen, Pauline LaShomb, Richard Lynch, Elizabeth Pearl, Mark Regan, Ronald Shatraw, Wendell Smith, and Donald Stacy. Our one activity that year was selling tickets on a pressure cooker. Then to top it all off, Mr. Armet, our class advisor, forgot to buy the pressure cooker. We also went on a trip to Ottawa for social studies. Mr. Seaton and Mr. Schmitz chap- eroned us. Mr. Corbin, our principal, also went. We started early and ate our lunches on the bus, those who brought lunch ate it on the bus. The rest of us ate at a large restaur- ant. After lunch we went through the Parliament Buildings which gave us some idea of how the Canadian government was run.We also had a short talk with the U.S. Ambassador to Canada who told us all about Parliament which we found was very interesting. We went up into the tower and got a bird’s eye view of part of the city. We then had a short time to look around. Of course, the girls went and window shopped. We never did find out where the boys went. Our officers for the year were: Jane Christy, president; Carol Cary, vice president; June Magill, secretary and Mark Regan, treasurer. In our sophomore year Arlene Barton, Betty Fullerton, Eugene LaShomb, Richard Puryer, and Milford Watson joined us. Helen Bradish and Shirley Brown who had been with us since 1945 left during the year. Our one activity that year was a dance which turned out quite successfully. We cleared about $30 which, we thought, was quite a good profit. Still, it was a long way from our goal. Two of our popular girls were elected again for an office. Jane Christy, president; Carol Cary, vice president; Myra Flanagan, secretary, and Donald Strader, treasurer. That year we had our new social studies teacher, Mr. Pelotte. In 1949 we were all together. Milford Watson left during the year. Our activities were a cooked food sale, selling tickets on a chenille bedspread, selling class pins with the class year on them. We also had two dances. All of these were successful including our Junior-Senior Prom. Our theme that year was Mexican Fiesta. We decorated the hall with gay-colored streamers and Mexican designs. We had a false ceiling with streamers and put a wishing well in the center of the floor. The stage was decorated as a garden,with trellises and roses. We had The King's Jesters , a teen-age band from Potsdam to provide the music. Our junior class officers were: Jane Christy, president; Carol Cary, vice president; Elizabeth Leach, secretary; Myra .Flanagan, treasurer. Miss Gillette acted as our advisor; The class this year lost a few of its members. They were: Jack Gary, Fred Groebler, and June Magill. June left us to get married. Our activities for the year were: a cooked food sale which wasn't very successful. We ended up buying the remainder of the food among ourselves. A dance with The King's Jes- ters for an orchestra which turned out fairly well. We made a little profit on it, but not much. We had two card parties one at the home of Myra Flanagan which was very successful. At both card parties we had a Chinese auction on a cake baked by one of the girls in our class. Other money-making projects which we conducted were selling stationery, taffy and cards. Then we had two big events. The senior play, The Daffy Dills, was fun for all of us though it was hard work.Joyce Bump finally let her hair down and really screamed the night of the play. During practice you couldn't get her to scream. Then Myra forgot her knife,poison,and pistol, her most pro- tective weapons, the hit of the play. Well, all in fun and it turned out very successfully. The coming events are the annual junior senior prom and also graduation which we are all looking forward to. We have just about enough money now to go on our planned trip to Washington and New York. We are sure we will all enjoy this last trip together. Our officers this year were: Gilbert Daby, president;Carol Cary, vice president;Arlene Barton and Jeanne Bump, secretaries;Myra Flanagan, treasurer; Lowell Durant,class reporter. We kept our same class advisor, Miss Gillette, 12 VALEDICTORIAN SALUTATORIAN In the twenty years that have crept up on me since I graduated from Parishville-Hopkin- ton Central High School, I have kept all information concerning the class of 1951 that grad- uated with me. One of the most treasured pieces of information is from a newspaper clipping about the class reunion in New York City at the Hotel Astor on June 26, 1961. The reunion was held in the form of a last class meeting. The acting president was Gilbert Daby. Gilbert went to law school and he is now a pro- minent lawyer in Newark, New Jersey. It is rumored that he will be running for senator in the next senatorial election. The secretary, who took the minutes, was Arlene Barton from Texas. After high school Arlene emigrated to Texas and bought the Bar-A Ranch. She holds rodeos once a week. She has a livery stable with horses for riding. She also gives riding lessons to anyone interested. The assistant secretary, who helped Arlene, was Jeanne Bump. Jeanne made a trip across the ocean to attend the reunion. Jeanne at first devoted her attention to the manufacture of cosmetics. Later she took up the French language and she now operates her own beauty parlor in Paris. The treasurer was Myra Flanagan. Myra served four terms in the White House as a cook after becoming acquainted with all secrets she will run for President of the United States. The newspaper reporter was Lowell Durant. Lowell has circumnavigated the globe three times. On his last trip he met Miss Annabelle Ray. After a short but happy courtship they married and made the fourth trip together. Joyce Bump came across New York City to attend the reunion. Joyce had such great suc- cess as an actress in the senior play of 1951, she decided to make acting her career. She is now one of the leading actresses on Broadway. Jane Christy also from New York City attended. Jane's voice really got her places. She is now a famous contralto at the Metropolitan Opera House. Elizabeth Leach drove from New Rochelle. Elizabeth held several jobs and finally decided to become her own boss. She now operates her own taxi-cab service. Betty McCauslin, who at the time was in Gouverneur, got a few days vacation and attended the reunion. Betty is working for the O.C. Buck Shows. Betty is the fat lady of the show. Neva Monica came from Nicholville where she is operating her own fashion shop. It is understood that Neva is doing a very profitable business. Jessie Simonds arrived with Neva from her home on the Hopkinton Road. Jessie puts out her own weekly newspaper called The Hopkinton Gazette. Dick Bicknell had a four-day leave so he was able to attend. Dick joined the navy soon after graduation. Dick likes the Navy very much and intends to make it his life profession. Monroe Putnam of Buffalo traveled by train to New York City. Monroe went to college and is now a famous medical doctor in Buffalo. He has a large following and the report is that everyone is very satisfied with his work. John Remington came from Pennsylvania. His main office of the Remington Thinking Ma- chine is located at Pittsburgh. John invented the thinking machine himself. It is the only one in the United States. Mark Regan came from Gary, Indiana where he has his own business school. There are sev- eral different courses offered in his college. The tuition is very reasonable. Donald Strader flew from Wyoming where he is a veterinarian. He attended veterinary school after he graduated from P. H. C. S.. He moved west because he thought he would have more business. Paul Snickles came from Fort Jackson where he is manager of the Fort Jackson Blue Sox. They are in second place in the national league, so Paul must be doing a good job managing them.

D., am writing the fortunes of the class of 1951. I gazed through a telescope at the zodiac for two hours each night for a week. After gather- ing my notes together and using another week, I came up with the following results. A horoscope is a diagram of the heavens with special reference to the position of the stars and planets at any instant, from which we astrologers proffer to foretell the future. The horoscope is a sectional view of the zodiac. The zodiac is an imaginary belt encircling the heavens and extending about eight de- grees on each side of the sun's path. This path contains the moon and the larger planets. The zodiac is divided into twelve parts called the signs of the zodiac, which formerly corres- ponded to twelve constellations bearing the same names as the signs. According to astrology, the twelve signs of the zodiac control twelve different organs of man and his destiny. For example, if a person is born under a certain sign, whatever or- gan this sign controls, the person will be allergic to disease of this organ. Even though modern science has proclaimed that the planets and stars of the universe have no effect whatsoever on our individual destinies. However, I have attempted to set down here what each of the senior's fortunes will be according to the signs of the zodiac. The two seniors born under the sign Capricornus (goat) are Jeanne Bump and Betty McCauslin. They are allergic to disease of the knees. Saturn is their ruling planet and Saturday is their lucky day. Their birthstone is the garnet and their flower is the carnation. Capricornus people should marry those born under the sign of Cancer (crab). Capricornus people are fine entertainers and excel in story tell- ing. When jolly, they are very jolly, but when miserable, they are very miserable. They are best adapted for pursuits in any vocation wherein steady application and industry are required. They are natural planners and know how to make both ends meet but must guard against the tendency to magnify their troubles. Mark Regan, Jr. and Monroe Putnam are the two seniors born under the sign Pisces (fish). They are allergic to diseases of the feet. Their ruling planet is Jupiter and Wednesday is their lucky day. Their birthstone is the amethyst (this stone is considered a talisman against drinking). Their flower is the violet. People born under this sign should marry those born under Virgo (virgin). Pisces people worry and fret and often look for trouble that nev- er comes. These people are usually long-lived and after struggling through life, die much wealthier than they expected to. They are the best workers, never seem to tire and are always ready to go. They are naturally very honest, fond of responsibility, and can be relied upon to fill places of trust. They should guard agqinst a tendency to worry. The four seniors bora under the sign Aries are Joyce Bump, Paul Snickles, Kichard icknell, and Lowell Durant. They are allergic to diseases of the head. Mars is their ruling planet and Tuesday their lucky day. Their birthstone is the diamond and their flower is the swe- et pea. Aries people should marry those born under the sign Libra (balance) Aries people are at their best when at the head of things such as a director, instructor, superintendent or manager. Their brain is always busy. They need but little medicine; quiet, rest and sleep are all they need when sick or exhausted. ihey are quick to resent abuse or imposi- tion, but forgiving and do not hold a grudge long. Many fine descrip- tive writers, novelists, and poets are found in this sign. They love beauty, order, harmony, and elegant surroundings. The two seniors born under the sign Taurus (bull) are John Remin- gton and Donald Strader. Thqy are allergic to disease of the neck and throat. Venus is their ruling planet and Saturday their lucky day. Their birthstone is the emerald and their flower is the lily of the valley. Taurus people should marry persons born under Scorpio (Scorpian). Taurus people are generally more fortunate in money matters than in love affairs. A city life is generally most suitable to Taurus peo- ple. Gardening is a good work for them. They find it brings health, happiness and prosperity for, it suits their temperament. They have keen minds, are wide awake, and grasp new ideas quickly. They can mem- orize with the greatest ease and should guard against a tendency to get angry quickly. The senior who was born under the sign Gemini (twins)is Carol Cary. She is allergic to diseases of the bronchial tubes and arms. Mercury is her ruling planet. Friday is her lucky day. Her birthstone is the pearl and her flower is the rose. Gemini people should marry those born under the sign Sagittarius. They are very affectionate and generous, courteous and kind to all. They are thoughtful of the poor and very sympathetic with suffering. They sh- ould guard aganist scattering their efforts and stick to one thing which will bring them success. They are destined to many changes in life, and being born in an air sign, her most fortunate places are on high ground They are not born for hard, dirty work and should take life easy. They are inconstant and liable to go to extremes, yet they have great control. They can be relied upon in an emer- gency. The senior born under the sign Cancer (crab) is Jane Christy. She should watch out for diseases of the lungs, cancer, and tumor. Her pla- net is the moon. Monday is her lucky day. Her birthstone is the ruby and her flower is the larkspur. She should marry someone born under the sign Capricornus. 1950-'51 The day was beautiful and clear When P. H. C. S. opened this year. Football season was greatly delayed The polio scare had most people dismayed. The Daffy Dills the play came next In which a stepmother couldn’t be hexed. The F. H. A. did put on a dance To make some money. They took a chance. The Hallwe'en party was quite a chore With costumes, games and fun galore. Book Week came early in November With some costumes we’ll always remember. That same month the furnace did break So we had time off—not too hard to take. The cafeteria had special dinners twice, Thanksgiving and Christmas—both were nice. Christmas vacation came and went Then our efforts on Regents had to be spent. February this year was very short Because school had to be closed a lot. But Valentine’s Day we did observe Even though some thought it a bit absurd. Basketball was not too successful we fear We did not get in to the play-offs this year. To Winthrop we journeyed on St. Patrick’s Day We took second place on that day for play. A trampoline the Board did buy It’s fun, though at first students did shy. There is still the prom and baseball season And more Regents to test our reason For there is a quarter year left no less But Panorama has to go to press. 15 our Class Will We the class of 1951, of the Parishville-Hopkinton Central School do declare this to be last will and testament. 1.

After that danger passed,the team in their new suits were ready to defend the cham- pionship they won last year. Because of the delay the team had to play several games in rapid succession. This proved to be injuri- ous to the team. As defending champions they won only one game. Members of the squad, which included sev- eral freshmen, during the 1950 season were: R. Bicknell, G. Daby, R. Waite, G. Newtown, L. Seaver, F. Parker, E. Groebler, J. Bradish, A. Remington, M. Putnam, H. Miller, W. Good- rich, C. Trerise, J. Snell, L. Durant, and P. Snell.

Potsdam new xorx New York 33 INTRAMURAL PROGRAM During the year 1950-51, our school's intramuaal program has included both boys and girla activities. Fall activities included: a four-league team of boys in grades 7 and 3 in soft, ball; a six-man touch football league composed of six teams; a four-team league for girls voll leyball. A total of 102 students participated in the fall program. The 7th and 8th softball league championship was won by the Yankees. Their captain was Eugene Conklin. The six-man football league championship was won by Colgate. Gilbert Daby was captain of the team and showed outstanding leadership and sportsmanship all through the season. The senior team, cap- tained by Arlene Barton, won the league championship by defeating the sophomores in the play- offs. The winter program consisted of basketball and ping-pong for both boys and girls. The sQn ior boys' basketball league was made up of 4 teams with 24 boys participating. The seniors won the championship in a hard-fought play-offs from the freshmen. In a best 2 out of 3, the seniors won two straight but not by more than two points in each game. Outstanding partici- pants in the senior boys league were: Gilbert Daby, Richard Bicknell, Malcolm Stacy, Alfred Remington, Garry Newtown, William Goodrich, Lynn Clark, and Eugene Groebler. The 7th and 8th grades played a play-off series of basketball in which the 7th grade emerged the winner over the 8th grade. All of the games were hard fought ones with the out- come left to the final seconds. It is hard to pick the outstanding individuals on the 7th grade team because all of the players showed a determined will to win. Ronald Robar, Edward Forrest, Edward Bump, Kevin Vorce and Jack Planty played exceptionally well. The 8th graders played good ball throughout the play-offs. In my opinion, Eugene Conklin showed real sports- manship and playing ability. Joe Witherell proved to be an important factor in the games in which he participated but he missed some of the games much to the sorrow of the 8th graders. The girls' ping-pong tournament for the 7th and 8th graders was won by Helen Weller of the 8th grade who defeated Phyllis Allen. Thirty girls participated in this tournament. Rob- ert Regan won the 7th and 8th grade boys' tournament in which 21 boys participated. In the senior boys' ping-pong tournament Mark Regan was the winner. He succeeds Paul Snickles who won it last year. At the conclusion of the basketball season, a foul-shooting contest was held for all boys in grades 9-12. The participants each took 25 foul shots. The winner, David Place, made 16 out of 25. His name will appear on a trophy as the champion foul shooter for 1951. The spring program will include a junior softball league composed of 7th and 8th grade students. The senior girls will have a softball league made up of 4 teams. The senior boys will have an intramural track and field event which is planned for Saturday, May 19, 1951. It is hoped to have the following events--100 yard dash high jump, running broad jump, shotput, standing broad jump and mile. GIRLS' INTRAMURALS This fall we had a girls’ volleyball tournament with the different classes competing a- gainst each other. The finals were played by the senior and sophomore girls. The senior girls won. The six senior players who received awards in assembly were: Captain Arlene Barton, Neva Monica, Elizabeth Leach, Joyce Bump, Jane Christy, and Jeanne Bump. There was no intramural basketball during the noon hour for the high school girls, but there was a town team, on which many of the girls played. Miss Burnup, our science teacher, was our coach and she also played with us. Some of the high school girls who played were:Joyce Witherell, Judy Wright, Mary Costa, Edith Rosenbarker, Joyce Howes, and Louise Perry. We played few games. The first was at Colton and we lost 21-25. The next time we played Colton here and lost 35-20. We had a playday March 17, at Winthrop, sponsored by the St. Lawrence Central girls. We played ping-pong and volleyball. Parishville won both the girls' and boys' tournament in ping-pong. Joyce Witherell won the singles and Eddie Snickles and Mark Regan won the doubles. The ping-pong players go to St. Lawrence University April 14. The girls lost in the volleyball tournament by one game. FACULTY-VARSITY GAME The Varsity Faculty game which was held on March 29,at the Town Hall proved to be very successful for the seniors. The first event of the evening was a basketball game between the women faculty and the senior girls. The faculty were supported by the freshman girls, and the seniors were supported by the juniors and sophomores. The players from the faculty were:Coach Miss Gillette, Miss Burnup, Miss Johnson, Mrs. Radway, and Mrs. Stearns.

The band played at several assemblies this year. The band marched at Potsdam on April 2S, for the spring festival and also played at the State Teachers College in competition with other bands.

The club had honorary members who could not join but helped publish the paper. They were: Jane Christy, Myra Flanagan, Martha Stark and Belva Sevey. We had no officers or special editors this year, but everyone worked together contributing whatever he could. Five issues of The Atom were put out by the club. It proved to be an educational as well as interesting activity The club members hope that the students and faculty enjoyed reading The Atom as much as the club had putting it out sincerely thank all of those who have helped to make the ca- per a success. 5{c )e.

Before dancing began, we had a short floor show. We had an assembly program for C. C. C. week. The three C's mean courtesy, consideration, and cooperation. We picked winners, a boy and a girl from each grade, from the 7th through the 12th. Winners from the 7th were Jean Daniels and Dale Sevey; 3th, Jean Stark and Joseph Wells; 9th, Mary Bicknell and Alfred Remington; 10th, Janet Miller and David Place; 11th, Marion Cary and Clark Trerise; 12th, Carol Cary and Gilbert Daby. The grand winners were Marion Cary and Gilbert Daby. The F. H. A. girls turned Betty Ross’es and made a United Nations flag. We donated the flag to the school at an assembly program. We also bought a doll, named Baby Jane, which we donated to the homemaking department, for use in the study of child care. We are now planning to have a box social and to entertain the F. H.

THIS YEAR'S ASSEMBLIES The first assembly we had this year Judy Wright and Gertrude McRobbie put on a skit on a Dutchman’s version of the Discovery of America. In November, an assembly was put on for Book Week. Some of the students dressed up as characters out of books. We also had a treasure hunt. Mary Eileen Costa and Gaylord Rock- well won the prizes for answering the most questions. The seniors put on their play The Daffy Dills for assembly. Grades 3-12 saw it.Every- one enjoyed it very much. December 15, another assembly was held. We sang some songs and then three students told about trips they had recently taken. Mary Bicknell told about her trip to Washington, D. C., Mary Eileen Costa told about her trip to Massachusetts, and Myra Flanagan told about her trip to Chicago. We had another interesting assembly in December. In this one we had our annual Christ- mas Party. We sang carols and exchanged presents. Afterwards we had refreshments. In February, the junior class put on a radio broadcast on Lincoln's life. In the same assembly the F.H. A. made announcements about C. C. C. week. The Sth grade had a choral reading of Lochinvar . The freshman class put on another assembly in honor of Waxhington's Birthday and Brother- hood Week. They put on two skits The Worst Boy in School and George Washington, Fanner . March 7, Mr. Relyea showed a picture on 4-H club work to the assembly. Mr. Relyea also presented Myra Flanagan with a 17-jewel Elgin wrist watch for her work in 4-H Club. March 29, some of the students put on a trampoline exhibition in front of assembly. Al- though the students hadn't been practicing very long, they were very good. Mr. Pelotte also presented some of the students with awards for their part in intermural sports. We have enjoyed all of our assemblies so far this year and hope for many more in the future. 1 FAVORITE EXPRESSIONS Betty McCauslin—Pardon me for living.'
