It shines dimly at lirst hut as the time grows shorter it becomes more transparent. Wc approach it, and as we draw nearer and nearer we are dazzled by the brilliant light it casts. It is graduation that attracts us like moths to a candle. We approach it with a lingering step—yet a rapid stride. We are glad that wo are finished, yet sorry that we are not returning. We are likened unto the characters in a love story -after trials, mis-haps and misunderstandings, the couple is joined together and the story abruptly ends. We have experienced our trials, mishaps and misunder-standings—some have fallen by the wayside—but we have struggled on to the end—graduation. We think of it as that, as the author thought it the end, but we are all mistaken. It is not the end. It is the beginning. We have spent our years here being fitted for life and what it holds for us. The future is before us, not behind us. Let us make the most of ourselves—don't let us go to our new positions and vocations and slip into the old “rut . Let us remain out of it—tackle life—see life—and live life and then we can enjoy life to the utmost. The beginning? Yes, but it is the end as well as the beginning. It is a happy and regretful end. Happy, as memory of the pranks and incidents we underwent as frosh comes back to us. Then the humor as Juniors watching the queer antics of the “frosh , or better yet as Seniors watching the absurdities of both the Juniors and the “frosh. We are regretful, too, as we think of the experiences wc have had here; good times and poor times, easy studies and hard studies, interesting studies and uninteresting studies. It all comes to us as we look back at the days spent here and realize that our time is short. We are going to leave. We think now what it has meant to us. Those good times on the Hill, those friendships formed and the instructions that we have received. Wc will carry it all with us and in years to come will, on different occasions, harken our thoughts back to gcx)d old State School. Ah, but they will be memoirs that we will cherish! The Voice staff wishes to thank you—all of you—for the support you have accorded us in the publication of our monthly issues and the Annual. We have strived to equal, if possible pass, the goal set by Voice staffs of the past. Wc wish the next year's staff the best of luck and hope that they succeed in the face of any obstacles. The Class of 1929 bids gcx)d-bye to the school, the faculty and to the remaining student body. We hope that you will, as prospective Juniors and Seniors, carry on in the manner of the Class of 1929 and previous classes. Twenty I2H 111 m fflir.V' History of the Senior Glass THE Senior Class of 1929 originated back in the fall of 1926, when forty-three green and ignorant freshmen arrived at State School and began the three year grind which was to bring them at last to their Senior year and graduation. The class officers elected for the first year were as follows: President, Wade Mattice; Vice-President, Evelyn McDuffec; Secretary, Mabel Hone; Treasurer, Arthur Lock-row; Assistant Treasurer, Hazel Sharpe. The Freshman class was well represented on the Varsity basketball squad and its members on the squad scored many of the points captured during the basketball season. The fall of 1927 found the forty-three invincibles no longer Freshmen. They had completed their first year of hard work and had arisen to the dignity of Juniors. The officers elected for the Junior year were: President, Henry Robinson; Vice- President, Paul Chase; Secretary, Archie Lawson; Treasurer, William Borthwick. In January the Junior class was greatly enlarged by the addition of eighteen students of the two year teacher training course. On February 11th the class gave a Valentine Party in the auditorium, which was voted a complete success. They also contributed to various other activities throughout the year. Then came the fall of 1928 and the Juniors entered upon their final year at State School under the title of Seniors, with full authority over the Freshmen who were just entering. Officers elected for the first term of the Senior year were: President, Carl Easton; Vice-President, Olda Ottman; Secretary, Catherine Lang; Treasurer, Henry Robinson. Of course the first event of any interest was the Freshmen-upper classmen rush. The Juniors and Seniors combined to take the victory away from the Frosh, who showed excellent sportsmanship throughout the entire proceedings. The party given in the evening was a big success, many Freshmen finding a balm for their wounded spirits in the evening’s entertainment. Several dances have been held in the auditorium following the Varsity games. These dances have all been sponsored by the Senior class and have provided an evening's entertainment to all students who wished to attend. The Senior class again increased in number after the mid years because of the entering students from the one year teacher training class. After their arrival, a meeting was held for the election of officers for the second term. The officers were all re-elected from the first term with the exception of the Secretary, Miss Young being elected to that office. Now we are nearing our goal, with graduation near at hand. While we are looking forward to the time when we will be going out into our various fields of activity, we cannot help a feeling of sadness at parting with dear old State School and all that our time on the hill has meant to us. May we never forget the joys and sorrows experienced by us at dear old N. Y. S. S. A. M. E. R , '29 Twenty-three Glass Qoem Lons within thy walls we've struggled. Now our hearts arc filled with woe. Since the time of parting faces us And duty bids us rise and go. With success you've crowned our efforts. Given blessings which none could foretell; But longer wc cannot linger. Farewell, State School, Farewell. Acquaintances here were fond and true. Now as we go on our way. We put off farewells as long as wc can And good-bye we dread to say. But good-bye just means God bless you , And that's what we're saying to you. God bless you teachers, classmates, friends. And guide you in all that you do. Alma mater, teachers, classmates. All that now we are leaving behind; Accept this farewell message. From the class of twenty-nine. W. E. B. Twenty-lom 7 Carl .X £lA5to Pre I CLASS O I MARY J.

East Berne, N. Y. Did he ever look at a girl twice? Forty-nine Senior Glass cJ9rophecy Seated one day at the television, I was weary and ill at ease, And my fingers wandered idly Over the controlling keys. I know not what I was thinking. For it was nearly time to dine; But I saw a vision prophetic, Of the class of twenty-nine. WHAT is this I sec? It appears to he a scene in Hollywood. I see Mary Ackner as the star player, Cleopatra, in the phenomenal photoplay “The Kitchen Sink.” The scenario of the play was written by our old friend, Irma Backus. The face of our old friend, Claude Armiin, appears on the screen. He is now superintendent of rural schools in Schoharie County. Evidently our Training Class play left its imprint even though wc had no idea of it at the time. Howard Baker is the next person whom we see. He looks just the same as he used to even to his smile. Just at present he is vice-president of a huge lumber company. I believe he got his inspiration from the study of trees in Mr. Day’s Nature Study Class. And this looks like a class of college students. Can that he Dorothy Baldwin and Alice Barss who are talking so earnestly to the students? It is. They are explaining their new theory of evolution from their recent book, “Man the Overgrown Insect. Well, well. Who would think Winifred Ball would ever be Freshman advisor on the Hill? Yet it is true, for here we see her attending a Freshman meeting. You remember she used to write those clever little poems in defense of the Frosh. Here is a scene in a restaurant. At a corner table screened by palms we see Mr. and Mrs. Ladislav Samek. The latter was formerly Pearl Barlow. They are at their old tricks learned at the cafeteria at State School. And here is Maude Baxter. She is now giving her daily exhibition of tight rope walking in Barnum and Bailey’s Circus. Judging from the applause her act must be very popular. Virginia, the land of summer, comes next before my eyes. There, on a beautiful plantation, was Mrs. Pauline Beilby. She is contently watching her children play a set of tennis on their private court. Pauline has made a fortune from her invention, the cut-less can opener. At first glance this appears to be a huge pyramid of children. Now one of them has dropped off and I sec the face of our old friend, Arnold Blair. He is teaching Fifty I he kindergarten al East Worcester bill spends most of the time holding the child ren on his lap. This appears to he the office of a large mail order concern. Yes, the sign proclaims it the office of Montgomery Ward Co., and who do we sec hut Lucy Boies and Edith Schell who are busily engaged in licking postage stamps. Now we hear on our radio the hum of an airplane and on the screen we see a large Rocket plane descending to earth. A great crowd is assembled to greet the fliers. To my surprise Edward Uooinhower and Frank Burnap step from the plane. They have just returned from a flying trip to Mars and report a fine time. William Borthwick and Roger Waite have accomplished their purpose in life. We see them treading the deck of a magnificent ocean liner. It is rumored that they have a woman in every port. Next we turn to Utica, N. Y., where we see Martha Bouchard and Donald Roland. They have he.cn married nearly seven years now and are settled in a fine little home. Donald Bradt has taken unto himself a wife, the former Alice Moore. He is rapidly coming to the conclusion that the sandy soil of Saratoga County is not fertile enough to support a large family. We turn the dials again and we see Marion Bremer and Helen Krug. They are great friends now and are living quite close to each other on large farms. They do all the family housework besides helping with the chores but appear to lx- very contented. Steady. Turn those dials just a hit more. There. Why, if it isn’t Winifred Brooks. But who is that tall man with her? I can't get him all in the screen. That must he Wadsworth Oliver. Now we have the long and short of it. What sort of a campaign is this? Isn't that Emma Bunzcy on that soap box? Of course it is. She is conducting a campaign to discourage marriage. A scene in the subway in New York appears on the screen. Here's our old friend, Morris Bunzcy, who got the job of night watchman here so he could sleep mornings. This scene certainly looks like winter. It is a town near Nome. Alaska, where Sylvester Butan operates a trading post. He regrets that he is not able to return to State School and play a game of football under the active coach, Mr. Moot This view of Frank Byles confirms the rumor that he had set himself in the butter tub by marrying a rich actress. Now all he has to do is entertain his vrife between acts. And if here isn't Paul Chase in his office trying to figure up his profits. His principal income now comes from raising gladiolas. His wife, the former (Jladys Tuttle, is proving a wonderful help to Paul in his business. Who is the lady working so hard over the washtubs? Sure enough it's Mrs. Cohn and 1 have heard she gave up teaching school to devote more time to her family. The next scene that was revealed to me was from the interior of Africa. Here Fifty-one was Estclla Conley trying to convert the negroes. Her assistant, whose duty it was to design frocks for the savage ladies, is none other than Ann Ryder. Down on State Street in Schenectady we sec the sign “Funeral Parlors.” It is owned by Carleton Coutant. He probably learned his trade from Frances Shaylor, with whom he was often seen in Cobleskill. The next person we see is Martha Cox. She is still the same old Martha— trying to vamp a nice young fellow; but her efforts seem to be in vain. A huge expanse of water comes into view. On a log in the left there is a large, bump. It moves and we sec that it is Charlotte Dean who is fishing in Peck's Pond. A view of the slippery shores appears and we sec a huge number of native women seated on the ground. Above them towers Iva Deitz, who is about to de liver her famous address, How to Crow Thin. A slight turn of the dial and I was looking in the land of Egypt. There I saw my two old friends, Mr. and Mrs. Avery DeLuca, the latter having been known as Gertrude Lape. They were on their second honeymoon, so I felt myself a third party even though they could not feel my unseen eyes. In a little cottage in California, I see a familiar figure. It is the girl we used to call Doris Dickerson. She is busy tidying up the house, having sent her husband to work and the kiddies to school. Busy days, these. And here is Paul Dievendorf, better known as “Cannon Ball Steve.” Accord' ing to the newspapers he is now in a position to use his talent. During the first six years after graduating from State School he wore out many Buicks, but for the past four years he has been driving Studebakers. With the latter cars he has smashed all world speed and endurance records and because of this the Studebaker has become the leading car of the nation. The scene shifts to Coopcrstown, N. Y. Here we find Martha Drew managing a summer resort, which seems to be a great attraction for the male members of the class of ’29. Here we see one of the most modern kitchens in Cobleskill. Probably you have guessed that it belongs to Mrs. Dyer. That pile of books over by the door leads us to think that Mrs. Dyer is still teaching school, although one can see that she is not neglecting her home. Now' all she has to do when she starts for school is to press a button and hubby’s dinner is prepared, the laundry is washed, dried, and ironed, and the baby is lulled asleep in its carriage. Ah! A beauty parlor. Yes, there's the sign, “The Earley Beauty Salon.” Do you suppose William owns it? There he is in that chair. His assistants are busy giving him his daily beauty treatment. I see Mae Richards marceling and perfuming his hair, while the delicate hands of Marion Jones are at work manicuring his nails. What is this? Crowds of people are gathered around a beautiful car which is parked in Main Street, Cobleskill. A stately man, attired in a long black dress coat and high silk hat arises to address the audience. He bows gracefully, at the same time removing his hat. Oh! At the sight of that hair I am at once reminded of Fifty-two ffloffl our class president, Carl Easton. Then a shout from the crowd assures me it is he. The crowd acclaims him with the shout. “Hurrah for Governor Easton.” Carl is about to deliver a speech on what he will do, il elected, it) reestablish the Teacher Training department at Coblcskill. We wish you luck, Girl. Now we turn the dials and we see some one teaching her three children their a b c's. It is our old friend, Roselin Eaton. Her name is changed now although we do not know what it is. Lucy Jennings is making a call at Koselin's home and is showing her motherly love towards the children just as she used to do at State School. Mary Eglcslon and Dora Thompson are traveling in vaudeville as the “Chin Twisters.” Dora says she profited by Miss Ton I son's remark on the use of her eyes in expressing things. Mary's dancing ability is drawing large crowds on Broadway. Here we see two women correspondents in the office of a famous diplomat in one of the capitals of Europe. They are rapidly recording the words that fall from the lips of this famous man. They glance up for a moment and we are startled l recognize Julia Em pic and Ann Mostar. Some people sure do take life easy. Why, here is a new taxi parked in front of one of the summer hotels in Sharon. Behind the wheel 1 recognize Floyd Fort, sleeping and snoring to his heart's content. Life is kind to some people. And here in this gymnasium is Edna Gray, giving physical exercises to over' stout women so that they may be able to wear Paris fashions when they reach Paris. This large publishing establishment in New York is owned by our classmate, Richard Griswold. Through these many years he has been assisted in his work by the well known joke editor of the Voice, Dorothy Posson. Occasionally Dick harks back to his childhood days and writes a long editorial on how to set up oats. And here is Leonard Hager. Who would have guessed that we had a man in the class of '29 who was destined to follow in the footsteps of Tex Rickard? Never' theless, with the help of a blue-eyed Miss from Onconta, he is now promoting prize fights. Why, this looks like Main Street in Coblcskill. The view narrows and we see a millinery store in front of which is the sign, Elsa Harris, Millinery. Parked near the curb is a green roadster which comes every night to take Elsa home. And here is the now famous Evelyn Harris. She has succeeded Angelo Patri, due to the death of that famous gentleman. Her articles are read through all the educational world to the benefit of all. She is planning a trip to Europe to speak-on “The Discontinuance of Unnecessary Studies in the Curriculum.’’ Surely this dish of baked beans looks appetizing. Gertrude Lum has taken first prize at the Coblcskill Fair for her famous book on “Fifty Ways of Serving Beans and Potatoes. No wonder. For years they have been the main diet of her husband. The Warner Brothers, Incorporated, have recently employed two of the pret-ticst dancing models in the world. One, a brunette, Beatrice Oilman; the other a Fifty-three blonde, Margaret Hendrickson. They declare they owe their exquisite form and beauty to a famous diet of egg omelet prepared by Miss Hendrickson herself. Here is a scene in Alaska. It is a school for native, children. The superintend' ent of the school is our old friend, Ann Hostash. The art director of the school is Theresa Hess, who, no doubt, got her training as a member of the Voice staff. Can this be Donald Hill? It is, but you would hardly know him now. Due to steady dieting Donald has become the foremost jockey on the Saratoga race track. His greatest ambition is to own a large stable of racing horses. Here we see two planes flying through the air with a wire stretched tightly be' tween the wings. As the planes get to a point several hundred feet above the earth, a young lady walks calmly across the wire to the other plane. The lady is small and blonde; none other than Kathleen Hillsinger. We wonder if she got her theatrical aspirations from Rettie. it seems that I have been transported to the metropolis of St. Johnsville and here I see Evelyn Howe's picture pasted on nearly every public building. After a closer observation I note that she has recently returned from a missionary journey to China and that she will give an account of her work in the city hall at St. Johns ville. And here is our old friend Jaycox, who seems to have taken on much flesh and muscle during the last ten years. He is now weighing seven hundred pounds. He works for the Ringling Bros. Circus and challenges the world's strongest men to battle every day. Well, he always was rough and ready at State School by the way he battled in snow fights with his fellow students. Wc see Harold Kniskern is a cohort of Jaycox and is putting on wrestling ex hibitions at the circus. He has world fame for being the world's best wrestler of his weight. As we look into the home of Mrs. Larkin we find our old acquaintance, Katlv erine Ling Mitchell, assisting her husband in demonstrating Singer Sewing Machines. Mrs. Larkin’s attention is divided between the demonstration and her maid, Florence Legg, who is receiving instructions on how to thread the needle. Archibald Lawson we see as a prominent farmer in his community. He has a Red Cross Range in his little home to refresh his memory of the big times he used to have in a certain store in Cobleskil! while attending school. Archie raises water-spaniels as a side line to keep the rodents out of that section of the country. As we pass a large department store who do we see but Esther Lockwood. She has overcome her childish ways and silly laughs and has become quite a saleslady. We can hardly believe our eyes when we see Ethel Madison conducting a girls’ boarding school. And Ethel without a man. But then we might have known she was too fickle when she was at N. Y. S. 8. A. It didn't pay to kid them along, Ethel. There is a tourist who has managed to tour all through the States and Canada. It is James Main who says he gained his experience by humming rides at State School from good-hearted tourists. The last thing he cares to do in life is settle down in one town. Fifty-four J turned to look up again and found myself watching a pretty red-haired nurse taking the pulse of a patient. It was Betty Martin and on her left hand reposed a large solitaire. The lucky fiance was the surgeon in charge of the sanitarium. He just entered, a striking young man, but then I can't trespass any longer. Here is Wade Matticc as a proprietor of a large muskrat farm, located in Lnuisi-ana. He had to bring Betty down where there are only homely negroes and the boys wouldn't be calling up for dates. Mat, as enthusiastic as ever about basketball, is coaching muskrat pets to remember his days of coaching authority at State School. A prosperous looking farmer walks along the East Worcester road and 1 recognize him as Herman Matticc. We're glad to hear that Herman is one of the most efficient producers of baby beef in the state. I see a large onion farm. How it reminds us of State School days. There's Maud Matthews now. She looks as though she might be manageress. A view of the General Electric Laboratory shows a thin lady gazing through a microscope. It is our old friend Dorothy Mickle, who says she got her practice in closing one eye back in N. Y. S. S. A. Why here is the old familiar town of Cobleskill. We see Alex Morse, who is now residing permanently here, his occupation being selling stoves for his father-in-law on a commission. We expect to see in the near future some little Morses attending State School. Congratulations, Alex! What low trick is this television playing on us now? It's no trick at all, merely a picture of Mr. and Mrs. Keith Dillenbcck (who used to be Marjorie Meyers) careening at a terrible, speed over the prairie on their honeymoon trip to California. Of course they are riding in a model T Ford with the top down. A richly furnished oflicc appears on the screen and at the desk we see Reed Nichols, who has become a sharp financier. He now has the controlling interest in Sears, Roebuck Co. The lady with the stethoscope is the new children's doctor at Central Bridge. We knew her as Olda Ottman. A sign in her oflicc proclaims her to lx especially good in the treatment of croup. There is Roy Ottman, who has done a great deal for Schoharie County in reforestation work. During the winter he goes to the Adirondacks and manages a lumber camp. Roy seems to like this business from beginning to end. Who is that alert young man approaching? It is the once sleepy Jim Palmer, who now enjoys perfect health and holds a position as herdsman at the Waldorf Farms, and has made several world's records with Guernseys. A great noise sounds and on the screen there flashes a picture of a snappy young lady directing an orchestra of 60 pieces. She is our famous musician, Elinor Peeke, and is the business manager, director, treasurer, and publicity agent for Peeke's Peppy Pedagogues (an orchestra of former school teachers). Miss Peeke has announced that she has obtained the. services of two famous soloists, Dorothy Wetsel and Rose LaGuardia, for a period of one year. Here we see Marjorie ReQua as critic teacher at Columbia University in the Fifty-five department of History. She is lecturing throughout the United States and Europe on the subject, The World Court.’’ Due to Hank Robinson's good looks and great popularity with opera singers, he is now announcing from broadcasting station WEAF. Perhaps Hank could get some of the bachelors of the class of '29 a few dates when they happen to be in New York City. Of course it would have to be on the sly for if Henry's wife (the former Marion Ostcrhout) should find it out he might get in trouble. Theodore Robinson is one of the largest butter and egg wholesale dealers in New York City. Teddy claims that he received most of the experience necessary to carry on this business at N. Y. S. S. A. It is strange that none of them back in State School saw the great possibilities the future held for Marion Runkle. We now see her as the chief recorder for pro-during phonograph records for a large corporation. Poor Herbert, still farming it, awaits anxiously each week end, when he can take his little flying machine to get Marion. 1 am amazed to find that Leslie Scutt has risen from a rural school teacher to the position of Superintendent of the First Supervisory District. His m xlcl school at Middleburgh is attracting much attention. Or is it the model school teacher, Catherine Reese, who is demonstrating her ability as a history teacher? Again I switched the dials and I found Margaret Sellers for she has kcot her resolution to be an old maid directing a convention of celebrated educational leaders. Margaret now supervises New York City's educational system. Now we see a basket ball court with a very closely contested game in progress between Vassar and Skidmore Colleges. A slim young referee is dashing madly about the floor. It is our classmate, Mildred Shopmyer, who received her preliminary training as referee at N. Y. 8. S. A. Now a ten-acre lot filled with model T Fords is seen. John Sidney is located on this farm and he peddles junk every day except when he has not been out too late the night before. He is one man exclusively who has something to be proud of. Mrs. Simmons is working hard teaching school to support her family, while poor Charlie works diligently at the daily routine of getting meals, washing dishes, and numerous other household duties. Funny how things turn out that way. That is a delightful little bungalow—Elizabeth Sitzer is living in it. Why, I had expected to find her still studying in some big university, but here she is diligently practicing the Three R’s of home making. Surely her husband and children l K)k very healthy and happy. Lydia Ingalls stands out as a unique member of our class. Here is a beautiful building known as the Ingalls Home for Undersized People, founded by Miss Ingalls. It has a wonderfully well-equipped gymnasium with a new stretching apparatus. The pretty little instructress, Marion Smith, can scarcely be recognized for she is now five feet five inches tall. You will agree it is a remarkable achievement. As Sylvester Story has learned many card tricks he is not always broke now. Syl. can always be found around his favorite haunts, the pool room. Now we see Thcris Taylor. She is working in a small Cafeteria in Otego, washing and drying dishes for her board. She is still dropping her man-bait lines. Fifty-six As wc enter the gate of Ringling Bros. Circus we hear “Ten cents to sec the fat lady.” Who do you suppose the fat lady is? It is Dorothy Traux, who joined the circus some time ago to take part in the main side show. As we walk along further we notice a pretty girl doing a toc'danee. We stop to watch and immediately recog' nizc Margaret IVttingill, one of our old schoolmates. Just a wee turn of the dial and we see Adalyn Vandecar and Edna Wincgard leaning over a wire fence and conversing. They are both married now and live side by side in small village homes. Here we see John Henry Van Duscn, who has been employed by the Museum of Natural History of New York to make excavations in the valleys of Germany to find more truth concerning our ancestors. John Henry is still an ardent advocate of Darwins theory and believes he will find the missing link if given plenty of time. What is that I see? Such a beautiful little farm. But who is that person dressed in overalls and rubber boots feeding an immense flock of ducks? 1 hardly recognize my old pal, Alice Van Voris. Alas, she has not only changed her appearance but also her name, which is now Mrs. Ira bum. A bleak and desolate waste of the north country comes into view. We see a sturdy woman trudging with determination deep into the solitude. Above the crunch of the snow shoes we hear the woman talking to herself and see her gesturing violently. She, herself, has just provided the key to her own identity. She is none other than Irene. Vosburgh, who went north eight years ago to obtain quiet and solitude. We now see Newton Wiley, who for the past ten years has made his home in his native hills of Rensselaer County. Newt, has been doing exceptionally well with Ayrshire cattle and the swine business. But because of becoming so bow-legged from climbing up and down the lulls he had to give tip the latter. And he can't catch a pig in the alley any more. Here we sec a cozy home and on the door we see the name, Edward McClellan. Let's take a look inside the house. Oh, yes, here in the kitchen we find Eddie himself drying dishes. He informs us that his wife, whom we used to know as Margaret Wood, is on a two weeks’ visit to the metropolis. It always was hard for Margaret to stay home, but then she usually took Eddie with her. Turning my dial back to New York I saw a large dirigible ready to start for Europe.

Then looking in a large opera house in Chicago I was enjoying myself by watching the acts. Would wonders never cease? Here in the midst of the toe dancing act was my old schoolmate, Howard Zimmer.

(Signed) THE CLASS OF TWENTY-NINE. G. E. L., '29 Fifty-nine Junior Highlights THE Class of ’30 started their second year at N. Y. S. S. A. determined to make it a year worth while. Many familiar faces were absent at tin beginning of the year and several others changed to a special course, graduating with the Class of '29, thus reducing our numbers quite considerable. The first meeting of the class was held on October 19th, and the following officers elected: President, Irving Hedges; Vice-President, William Benson; Secretary, Foster Hapcman; Treasurer, Warren Maxon; Student Council members, lid-ward McClellan and Howard Vandercar, and Class Reporter, Ernest Newell. Our first accomplishment was the Annual Freshmen Rush, he'd on November 3d. It resulted in a decided victory for the upper classmen. We arc represented in every school activity in a way that shows we still have a large amount of responsibility in school life. These activities include the Student Council, the Voice, the two Fraternities, the. Squad, and others. The class basketball team was organised late in December. Ed. McClellan was elected captain; Paul Chase, coach, and Ernest Newell, manager. They played the scheduled number of games with the Seniors and Frosh and won the tournament, losing only one. On January 24th, we were reenforced by the new members from the Frosh class. We, therefore, reorganized and elected the following officers: President, Warren Maxon; Vice-President, Christopher Ayers; Secretary, Foster Hapcman; Treasurer, Lewis Kirby; Student Council members, Clarence Washburn, Carl Gilmore and William Benson. Our class has not pushed out into any active social program as we considered this field already covered by other organizations of the school, which have taken first hand interest of most of our members. On January 25th, however, we gave a very successful Box Social. Games were played and the boxes were auctioned off by a professional auctioneer. The high bidder then ate with the young lady that brought the box. Dancing rounded out the evening’s program. While we have not accomplished as much as we planned, we feel that we have done enough to make our time here well worth while. Our best wishes arc success to the school and especially the graduating class. ERNEST NEWELL. Sixty-thicc (junior cjQutograpks reshman ON Oclolx-r X, 1 2S. the annua! event occurred -it Slate School. Porty-five pea-green Freshmen marched up Slate School hill. The first week we were alone with no upperc lassmen or Student Council rules to bother us. I)ui' ing this lime we became acquainted and organized a permanent organization with J. Dedrick, President; G. hum, Vice-President; O. Meyers, Secretary; M. Bremer, Treasurer. Time passed rapidly and finally came the famous Frosh-upper-classmcn rush, in which the upper-classmen were successful. Along with this came the Student Council rules, which didn't affect us much. Shortly after this we organised the State School’s first football team, under the coaching of Mr Moot. We were also represented in basketball, both on the Varsity and Squad. After the mid-term examinations many of our members became Juniors and Seniors, thereby leaving our ranks depleted. At our first meeting alter the midterm, we reorganized and the following oflieers were elected: Austin Alle, Presi- dent; G. Ocampo, Vice-President; Ward Hines, Secretary; Lawrence Dean, Treasurer; George Erickson, member of Student Council; James Leggett, class editor. Before closing, we as a class wish to thank Mr. Moot for splendid support to our class and that we will lx as successful in tin years to come as we have in the past. J. L. L., '51 Sixty-seven freshman j lutographs Robe {Boys’ Student Council THE first Boys' Student Council meeting was called at 4:1 on Wednesday, October 24, 1928. The following were on the bench: Paul Dievendorf, Ed' ward McClellan, VanTuyl Jay cox, Lewis Kirby, Henry VanDusen, Roger Waite, Howard Vandecar, and Carl Easton. As VanDusen soon became a fraternity man, Scull was elected to his place due to the fact that the Iraternily quota was already filled. The first matter of business was that of electing officers, who were: President, Paul Dievendorf; Secretary, Carl Easton. Following the election of officers a fine set of rules for governing the Frosh” were enacted. All other meet' ings of the council the first term consisted largely in punishing disobedient and disrespectful Frosh”. At the opening of the new term the same council men were elected to represent the Seniors. The Juniors were represented by Clarence Washburn, Carl Gilmore, and William Benson. The Freshmen, now being considered old enough to he represented on the council, chose George Erickson. At the first meeting of the new council the same officers were elected. As there were no names ol disobedient Fresh men to be considered, the meeting adjourned and has not met since. The boys’ council has had a very successful year and now we wish to compliment the Freshmen on their ability to follow directions and we hope that the years to come will bring even greater successes to future Student Councils. COUNCIL OF 1928-1929 Severn- -one he Qirls’ Student Council ON September 8, 1928, the training elass came back to State School to gain lurthcr knowledge of how to teach school. For the lirsl lew weeks we enjoyed a happy lile without the constant thought of there are rules to obey. Then came the time to elect a governing body. The classes met to elect their representatives. There were two members from the two year Seniors, two from the returned Seniors, two from the Freshmen class, and one from the Home Economic Department. The following were elected: Alice Moore, President; Betty Martin, Vice-President; Mary Ackner, Secretary; Irma Backus, Treasurer; Martha Bouchard, Gertrude Lape and Mrs. Runklc. There were two activities carried on by the Girls' Council with the aid of the Boys' Student Council. An entertainment was given consisting of a one act play, Goose Money , in which members of the school took pail. Alter the play, sandwiches, colfcc and candy were sold, also chances for the fish pond and post office. This entertainment was very successful. With the proceeds of the entertainment, the Councils gave the sch x l a Christmas party. A program giving the origin and meaning of Christmas in verse, song and praise was given. After the program, ice cream and wafers were served and each received i bag ol candy. The Councils owe much of the success on these two occasions to our faculty and advisor. Miss Hodg-don. After the mid-year examinations it was time to elect a new Student Council. The following were elected: Alice Moore, President: Gertrude Lape, Vice-1 iesi-dent; Mary Ackner, Secretary; Irma Backus, Treasurer: Anna Hostash, Voice Reporter; Martha Bouchard and Betty Martin. The activities to be engaged in this semester are a play and later on a picnic. We are looking ahead to having a very nice time. Seventy-three be Orchestra ABOUT every school 1ms an orchestra, which plays an important role in the school affairs. Our school is no exception, for we have an orchestra which, is under tl� c careful supervision of Mr. Teed. Throughout the entire year Mr. Teed has given unremitting effort and time to the orchestra. Chapel period seems empty without the orchestra's marches and accompaniments. There are quite a variety of pieces in our orchestra, which in itself is an advant-age. The orchestra showed its ability when playing for the Senior play and grad' nation. ELEANOR PEEKE ......... MARJORY OCTAVIA MYERS LADISLAV SAMEK ........ MRS. IRENE VOS BURGH ..

Entertainments for members, strongly supported by Mr. Hodder, with his all too mystifying magic. All these have gone to make up a very pleasant and successful season for the Radio Club. With the purchasing of a Majestic radio by the School, our meetings were transferred from the Crops room to the auditorium, where the new machine is situated. This has helped considerably in the enlivening of our programs. Sometimes, to be sure, our gatherings met with not a hint of radio in the discussion, but if variety is the spice of life, our club is remarkably well seasoned. With Hagar, Captain: Butan, First Lieutenant; and Oliver, Chief Boatswain's Mate, or Secretary and Treasurer, the Radio Club was safely piloted through the '28 29 season, with benefit and pleasure for ill concerned. Scvcnty-scvcn c(9he leather Club WE stalled this year with twenty members. Starting this year better than ever before, we hope to see it even better in the future. We raffled off a rooster at Thanksgiving and we wish to thank everyone for their co-opera-lion. On February 15 the presiding officer, Carlton Coutant, called the first executive meeting of 1929 to order. The following members were elected: Henry Robinson, President; Fayette Bink, Vice-President; Wadsworth Oliver, Secretary; and Donald Bradt, Treasurer. The present members are: Robinson, H.

Epsilon Chapter of Theta Gamma started in the school year with twelve active members. Last year took heavy toll of our chapter when sixteen of our number graduated. Soon our ranks became supplemented by new strength. Donald Hill, being pledged last year, was initiated soon after school opened. Liter, J. Henry VanDusen was added to the list. In January from those we pledged we were pleased to web come the following: Vail Sheldon, Lloyd Moore, Edward Boomhower, Walter Vogel, Ward Hines, Clarence MacMullcn and Howard Baker. This year Epsilon had the great pleasure and honor of playing host to the Grand Council Convention of Theta Gamma Fraternity. The convention was augmented on its first evening by the Annual Theta Gamma dance, a very praiseworthy affair. On the following evening a satisfying banquet was held at the United States Hotel, where excellent food as well as speeches were participated. Just before Christmas vacation was held our Rush Banquet and Theatre Party, at which those students were present who had been invited to join the fraternity. In January, as was our custom, the fraternity attended the Methodist Church in a body. Rev. F. M. Hagadorn greeted us with some very thoughtful and appropriate remarks. Another social event was enjoyed on the evening of February 19th, at the home of Brother E. B. Hewes. The games and especially the refreshments were enjoyed immensely. We are looking forward to the remaining events of the year, not only in our own fraternity, but with our brother fraternity and the school in general. In closing, we wish everyone a pleasant vacation, success in future work, both to those leaving and those returning.

PI PHI Eighty-seven William BortkWi'cX Ernesr i . - 2V 3?hi cj ctivities RETURNING to State School in the fall of 1928, we in the bonds had an enrollment of active brothers numbering nine. They were Adel Parsons, Sid Sidney, Bill Borthwick, Dip Chase, Steve Dievendorf, Hank Robinson, Ed” McClellan, Buster Hedges, and Newbie Newell. Soon we initiated Biend Blair and Al Morse, bringing our activities to eleven. Before Christmas, we held our annual rush banquet and theatre party. After the roast pork dinner, which was served at the United States Hotel, Director Crit-tendon, Brother Herman Picard, an alumnus, and Prof. Wheeler, our faculty ad' visor, gave short, interesting talks. The main speaker of the evening was Mr. George Ryder, who gave us a very fine address. After mid'terms, the result of our rush season was apparent in that we received four new brothers into our fraternity, namely, Larry Hall, “Howie Groff, Lew Horstman, Wrigley Sidney, and also “Washie” Washburn, who joined a little later, bringing our total active membership to sixteen for the year. During February, we had the misfortune to lose the services of one of our brothers, due to Brother Chase having an attack of appendicitis and necessitating an operation. The Annual Novelty Dance staged by Pi Phi was held on March 23, in the chapel of Frisbie building. The banquet for the alumni and active brothers directly preceded the dance. After the evening was over, we were very glad to be able to say that it was a vt—y fitting social climax to our school activities for the year. Surely as we look back over the records, we may be able to say quite sincerely that wc have just passed one of the most successful years in the history of our chapter and should feel quite satisfied to leave behind us dear old Pi Phi with so strong a foundation. However, we are not going to he entirely satisfied as to stop here but to build a building that will harmonise with such a firm and rugged foundation. H. S. R. iBoys’ Varsity Coach Wheeler, being back with us again this year, has directed the efforts of our team to a very successful season. Our schedule has been one of the most difli' cult that the Aggies have ever had. We were fortunate this year to have some good material from the Freshman class, but arc sorry to say lost the services of Captain Chase due to illness in mid-season. There will he five Varsity men leaving this year, and we wish Coach Wheeler and his team the best of luck and success for the coming season. Date Team Flayed Opp. Agg. Nov. 2.'

Although we had so good a team we were not able to play many games due to the fact that a number of schools did not play intcrscholastic games this year; a number played boys rules, and others were not able to finance their teams. Much credit is due our coach, Miss Toulson, for out of the. chaos of a bunch of raw, green material she, by hard work and much patience worked up a respect' able basketball team. We are hoping that next year we may have the opportunity and privilege of coming back and trimming next year's Varsity. Summary of games: Team Alumni .........................

But three games were played, and, to be sure, our opponents captured all ol these, but only after severe struggles. In spite of our defeats, a foundation has been laid, and well laid, upon which to erect a firm and, we hope, a permanent structure for the further advancement of this king of sports, football. Over thirty boys in all turned out for the squad, and it is through their faithful perseverance that we hope to create a winning team in the coming year. Due to the shortness of our season, we were unable to award Major letters, but ten Minors, eight Numerals and about ten mentions were given. In closing, we wish to express our sincere appreciation of the spirit which the Student Body showed in supporting the team throughout the season, and also our admiration for the remarkable fighting spirit and good sportsmanship shown by the team with a season of misfortune and discouragement behind them. To the squads then, in the years to come, good luck, and loads of it. W. OLIVER Ninety-six teacher draining department Our Teacher Training group at State School this year is surely composed of a cosmopolitan group of students. There arc thirteen counties represented and seventy-nine students in attendance, the largest training class that this school has ever had. Our class divides itsell into lour groups: The returned Seniors who were here last year; the returned Seniors who have attended here other years; Seniors who have attended elsewhere, and the Freshmen. These conditions did not hinder our getting acquainted; in fact, they seemed to promote it. We soon elected Student Council representatives and their rites took the place of father’s and mother’s do's and don'ts at home. We seemed to have an especially spirited group of Freshmen this year. They were so spirited that the Seniors became quite alarmed and soon formulated Fresh-men rules. And, after much whispering and secrecy, much cutting and snipping and pricking of fingers, the Seniors produced their masterpieces, a generous supply of beautiful green bibs, lettered with the endearing term “Frosh”, to teach these buoyant Freshmen Who Was Who ! Penalties for breaking Freshmen rules provided amusement for a little while. But the Freshmen steadily grew up and in January we cheerfully welcomed them as Seniors to our groups. It is surprising to see how they have developed into happy, steadfast, true citizens of our class and school. In January, we lost our best beloved teacher, Miss MacDonald. We could not realize she was gone. State School seemed strange and unusual without her, but we learned to adjust ourselves to changes, and so State School continues, but not just the same as it was before. Miss Bennett, who is to make the third teacher in our Training Class Department, has not yet arrived. Of course, we are curious! It is rumored that next year there will be no Teacher Training Class at State School. We hope this rumor is false for we wish others to have and enjoy this helpful, prosperous, happy training that we ourselves are fortunate enough to have had. We have enjoyed our time at State School, not only for its helpfulness but also because of the good times we have had and the friendships we have made. Or course, vc will drift apart, but our lives will always be richer because of our sojourn here. As we leave State School this June, our hearts will be saddened, because we have to part from that which we hold dear. We will be together no longer. But our thoughts will travel back to dear old State School and the happy school days and the dear comrades we had there. ANNA HOST ASH, ’29 Ninety-nine ?

ANNA HOST ASH, '29 Ninety-nine fKome Economics £ife On or a little after September 4, 1928, fourteen pleasant girls came up the State School hill to take up Home Economic work. We were, of course, all very proud to think we had such a large class of girls. We knew no one at first, but it was great fun becoming acquainted, and soon our time was pretty well taken up in get-ting familiar with our new subjects. It did not take long to become acquainted, however, and soon we were having much fun as one large group. Of course a family cannot be complete without a mother, so Mrs. Heron played her part from the very first day, and Miss Prentice being our cheerful teacher, also played her part well and many good times and reci-unions were enjoyed by all. The upper-classmen soon began to lay their rules for the new “Freshmen. A few penalties were laid and paid for, but everything went along fine considering the newness of everything to us. In October, when the boys arrived, there were many new faces to become acquainted with again. Some of our girls seemed to sink from our family activities a bit and take up new- interests. Our final examinations were tried and passed successfully and our family is now parting to take up new things in life. As we leave the Home Economics building and go down State School hill, we arc leaving behind us many loved activities and arc parting from many faces which we wish to meet again. MARION IV BREMER, '29 Otir Hundred One ULi Agricultural £)Votes We all know that the Ag. students consider themselves and are considered by some the most important of the student body at N. Y. S. S. A. So why, we ask, is it necessary to write about the Ag. department? It is necessary, we answer, for the few who will read this book who are unacquainted with our deeds, to become ac quainted with them. The Juniors broke the routine of their classes, in the first term, by making sew eral trips. In chemistry, they visited Ball's Cave and became cave explorers for a few hours. In live stock, they visited several farms where they increased their knowledge of judging live stock. During the second term, the fitting contest took up a good share of their spare time. Putting that over in excellent shape, they con-sidcred their lime well spent, and it was indeed. The Seniors took numerous poultry trips and enjoyed themselves very much, as well as gaining much that will be of value to them in years to come. The fruit classes made numerous trips to the orchard and fruit cellar, learning various things and diminishing the supply of fruit. The Senior boys helped to make the day of the fitting contest a success with their exhibits and the fitting of poultry. The classes in fruit, poultry and livestock are awaiting eagerly their spring trip after graduation. Poultry, fruit and livestock farms will lx visited and studied. The biggest event, in all probability, will be the visiting of the ice cream plant. The Freshmen boys have been overlooked, one might say, but their turn is ap' proaching and the Senior Ag. boys hope that the Frosh will get, in the next two years, as much fun and practical knowledge as they have. One Hundred Three c Uumni Another graduation is fast approaching us and we are about to add to our scroll the names ol the many students who are again leaving the shelter of their Alma Mater to enter, with us, into the game of life. We extend to them our wishes for the best of success in whatever line they may choose to follow and also a life ol true happiness. Most of us are saddened, when we realize that this class of twenty-nine may complete our number of Training Class Alumni. We arc glad, however, that the Home Economics and Agricultural Departments are to remain at State School. We hope they will show even greater progress in the future than the Training Class has in the short time it has existed at the State School. It is interesting to note the progress made from year to year in the Training Class alone. The first group of State School Training Class Alumni began in the year 1923 with the seemingly fortunate number, thirteen. The next year, 1924. added twenty-one students. In 1925 the number of graduates increased to twenty-nine, and 1926 shows a still better increase to thirty-eight graduates. In 1927 there were thirty-three, which is a few less than the preceding year. In 1928, due to the two year course, which had already begun in 1927, there were sixty-one graduates. This year, 1929, may end the Training Class history with the last and largest number of graduates, there being seventy-nine graduates this year from the Training ('lass. Thus, through the seven years that Training Class has existed at State School, nearly every year, except one, has shown a big increase in enrollment and number of graduates. We hope that in the future State School students will not forget the Training Class, which was once a big part of the school. On the other hand, we will show just as much love and respect for State School as in the days when I raining Class played an active part in this institution. 1 D. L.

As Alumni, they will have still more money to spend, and they will still show their appreciation of your support. Ad' vertising in the Voice not only creates a desire to buy what you have to sell, but it also creates good will, making that desire keener.

Thorough and complete explanation of what we propose to give them, including a specific quotation and definite spccifica-lions. 3. Co-operation with the staff in the preparation of their material. Making recommendations based on experience and suggestions based on knowledge. 4. Not only furnishing a blank dummy, but laying out the pages for good arrangement and typographic style. We do not leave good typography to men in the shop”. We maintain a service department trained for that purpose. 5. Furnishing drawings when no artistic talent is available from the school. It is far better for the staff to secure g x d drawings at a nominal cost than to spend money on engraving the discreditable work of amateurs which will spoil the appearance of the book. 6. Securing engravings and electrotypes at the lowest cost obtainable. 7. Producing a piece of printing, from the standpoint of craftsmanship, that will be a source of pride to the school.
