Straighten up this labf' Miss Fischer, how many times do you say that each day? VERA FISCHER, the lady with the green coupe, is from Albany. Very capably, she handles all the sciences in school and more than once windows have been flung open because of those experiments. Ravena-Coeymans High's very first full-time librarian is MRS.

Miss Fischer is really a very likalile person with her willingness . 10 to help, witty doings, and her darling hall' giggle-half laugh. Students Consider her one 1, of them. A veteran of the art of teaching, five whole years, she began her studies at 4 l K Albany High and wound up at Russell Sage. Stay around, Miss Fischer. Ravenn- f JD Coeyinans High will teach you something, too' 'how to get gray ten years before your 'YM' Duff' time. ,J AX :SC Ahal a newcomer in our midst, Lainese Farhart, fresh out of College of Saint Rose. AQ, 3 15 Q Miss Farhart's quick smile and quick wit, along with her pleasant manner, make her 5 ' Y-JLLK well liked by the students. Another thing which makes her so well-liked is the innocent IDL wax she passes some funnx remark. Tell us, Miss Faihart, what's the big secret? Miss Farliart, who attended Gloversville High, is the holder of a Bachelor of Arts Degree. Now, you know these three people, is it any wonder our class of '45 is so very, very proud of their grand advisers?

Let a teacher ask you to stay in school a fcw minutes, and it seems as though the bottom has fallen out of the barrel of fun. However, let the day roll around when you don't have to make class, and there just doesn't seem to be much to do. So you go to school. This was one of those' days when I didnlt have much to do and decided To saunter over to Alma Mater. Some girllivas sitting at a desk near the entrancie 'doing homework. I later learned she was called a guide and was performing a special mission. It seems there are some people 'gwho just can't wait to get to their classesf and so take shortcuts-out the front door. These are the people who need the guidance-back up the right stairs. In fact the only ones who seem to get by these guides are those who can produce a little white pass- port. Then there's no questioning. I had no passport, but the principal wanted to see me CI saidl and those proved to be the magic words. While talking my way into the building, I glanced into the shop room where a long man seemed to be in charge. The atmosphere appeared free and easy and the kids3' looked happy. Oops, clean-up time must be upon them, and they're not so enthusiastic. Well, I wasnit going to let the first period bell catch me in the front entrance and shoved on. I caught sight of the nurse peering down a little boyis throat. A nurse must certainly have looked down many throats, and I won- dered if it didnlt get thoroughly uninteresting to see teeth, tongue, and red skin each time. Who knows, though, someone might stick a wad of gum under a tooth once in a while? Boooooo. Turn on the lights. Aw, get a good machinef' Cries, insults, and threats were Continued on page Twenty-four Twenty-three i being hurled at Ladies man, Depuyu beeanse the movie projector broke down. I understand that this showing of movies saves Nolie from taking a test now and then. Mr. Downes just rushed in with a new lead and everyone will soon be happy. Just got bv another guide. Right at the head of the stairs on the west side, I looked in the window and at hrs! wondered if ti Class was in progress. Must be, for everyone seemed to be seriously working. 'l'here were just about eight girls in all: some were typing, two were working at the niimen- grapli, another eutting tiekets and still others tiling ezirtls. 'l'he teaeher waved and smiled, .ind leaving it at that, I went on to the end of the hall, My, that looked interesting! People around .ill sorts of interesting glass tubes and hottlesl l uenienilmeied the days when ILS was inside, .ind it w.isn't left in the ehemistry Class either. ln no time llnt, most of the windows in the linilding had been flung open, llniuuuln, the elass iooins looked tnueh the s.nne, So did the study hall. The U'IH'lll'l w.isn't beaming p:utieuarly. Must he someone dv-eided to let the whole study hall in on his thoughts, lsn't it lots more fun to talk when vou're not supposed tn? 'I'here seems to be in lmiggerkiek init. Uh boy, talk about tantalizing, iippetiving, mouth-watering aroma of Spanish rife. I was hungry, anyhow, and those whiffs weren't help- ing me to forget about it. Clara Fink had just taken out a large pan of the rice, and Mr, D was as eager as any of the students to get a large platefull. I had some myself, and no wonder they were asking for seconds! Before going I decided to patronize the ice eream department where Westy is Lord and fxfaster. Come on, fork it over. A nickel, and no slugs either or I'll slug you one. The money she made on ice Cream went to the athletic teams this year and the team sure was grate- ful, especially after the New York trip. Twenty-four lass Hi tory . . . Ravena . . . Ah!

When the history of Egypt came up for discussion, fifty-eight hands set to work bringing old Egypt to life in a sand table scene with clay models of the sphinx, pyramids, palm trees and camels. No less eager were these twenty-nine pairs of hands to make soap carved images of temples, boats and Chariots of ancient Rome and Greece. Those who did not care for soap carving tried their luck with potato prints and papier-mache. However, all work and no play had no place in this room, and before long the grade basketbll team captained by tall Dick Van der Veer was the talk of the grades. Staunchly supporting the team were Doug Pemberton, Al Shear, Bucker Ziegen, John Finley, Frank Micozzi and the rest. Some games were lost, others won. Another big day dawned when the bi-weekly newspaper, ujunior Journalfl was issued. Fay Travis, Elinor Knox and Maura Glenn shared the editorial responsibilities. Though they remember the Albany trips, the many parties and movies, the day boat, it was uoh, Coeymans, here we comeln in June. Ambitious and bright-eyed children filled the fifth grade under the supervision of Mrs. Crane. They completed many novel activities. First came the making of looms from popsickle sticks and, though it took time to collect the sticks, no one found it an arduous task. The bead belts were the pride of the class for several weeks that followed. When it was decided to make wastepaper baskets for Christmas, more little fingers were pasted together than baskets. Are there any fine points on airplane making you wanted to know? All types of models hang suspended in the room, not to mention the clay models and pottery Mrs. Crane had fired for her admirers. The Red Cross S.O.S. reached the Efth grade room and soon their motto became 'SKnit for the Red Crossf' This was an activity both boys and girls participated ing what was more. the boys accomplished as much on the afghan as did the girls. Was it talent you were looking for? The class artist was bright, little Alice McCormick. while crooner Dickie Hartman would have made Sinatra himself swoon. Several of these fifth graders joined the Grade Glee Club and their voices blended nicely with the other grades. And, so, for a happy fifth school year, thanks to Mrs. Crane. Vitamins, starches, proteins, fats. The nurse and homemaking cadets came in to teach us about balanced diets and then the day we had been waiting for finally arrived to find us, along with Miss Stone, excitedly making our way to the Home Ec. cottage. Some sifted flour, others measured ingredients and still others waited impatiently to roll out the dough. Each one made his own gingerbread man and with the aid of raisins and our artistic ability, we made each one look like a real man. Busy little second-third graders were all excited when Mrs. Roberts told them they could make head dresses and an Indian Village of their own. After the unit was completed, many 2. happy afternoon was spent playing in the Village. Learning to tell time was no trouble at all, especially when the children made their own clocks. Have you seen the acquarium in the room? While studying the farm unit, the class churned its own butter and ate it. It was good! Right now a little store in the room is doing a flourishing business. Last fall saw the kindergarten and first grade children scouting in the woods to gather moss, plants and stones for the terrarium. Miss Byxbee had purchased boxes of blocks, and the children did no end of pounding and building in their spare time. The next Held trip took these tots to the Homemaking Center. Here the children discussed house planning and then returned to school full of ideas for their own little house. In the back of the room stands this 8' by 6' by 5' structure, complete with home-made furniture and a proud paint job. Did you notice the real garden these little farmers made in the spring? 1 'Q 1- 'N L. ff A 'nw C 6- L1 .ii ,XXX N X Xxx X0 X f X X X -. ,X X. XX . X x 'VX 1 K X wh x' K Xl, E X ,A .

Thirty-nine Alma Mater. . . 111, rf ,- By BETTY BENN The time has come for us to leave The school we hold so dearg Here and there a stifled sob And in many an eye a tear. We entered to learn, and go forth to serve, Alma Mater, we'll never forget. We owe thee greatly for knowledge acquired And with service we'll pay our debt. The hours of toil were mixed with fun, And now the time is nigh To leave the plaee where dreams were formed, llreanns that will never die. We ean't all be eaptainsg there must be a erewg Anti great men emerge with the smallg Wt-'re no longer ehildren, we're come to the point Where we answer at duty's first eall. Now we must leave as women and meng The days of our Childhood are past, We pledge thee our serviee, your honor keep high In trouble and strife we'll stand fast. Our life is before us, for gain or defeat, Fear not tho' your pathway be darkg Remember the trigger must always be pulled, Before you can hit life's mark. Though many a one by the wayside may fall, In the midst of the trouble and strife Alma Bfater's own sons sweet victory shall have, When the sun goes down on this life. To thee. Alma Mater. we bid a farewell. The time of the parting is nigh. Wt-'ll remember thee always and strive to do well, And our memories of thee will not die. USEFUL H F QQ t 'xg 'K 6 0 'W V j,,.
