I am taking the liberty of skipping twenty years, thirty years, ami am talking to you at that period when our prophecy is in the act of coming true. Still sup|M sing. of course, that it is going to do so! It is now that we are going to derive the maximum of pleasure from looking over our Annual, and reviewing all those events that took place during the year nineteen twenty-nine, and thirty. Indeed, it is this power of reminiscence that lends charm to any year hook. The power of bringing back to mind old friends, our faculty, and the many times that we put. or thought we put. something over on them; and the times we thought we did, and found to our regret that we hadn't! Curious, isn't it. how at this late date, each little trick we played, each hit of foolishness comes hack to mind? Remember the I'Yosli rush. Chaps, and the game that followed it? Recall the fact that when you broke a window light you dip| cd into your hoard and handed two dollars across the desk? and now! Here you are, well off in the world, and you can laugh as you remember the sinking feeling you had when you kissed the hill goodby! And you must admit that it wus careless! We hojxr that your son has a Ixttcr aim. Why the startled look? Have you forgotten that this is 1950? And so the year passed, and finally this very hook was put into your hand, and you read this very article. I am wondering if you experience a different feeling now, as you read it through, than you did the first time. A feeling of tolerance, perhaps, a feeling that “ those were the days. I know that they were for me! Carefree, taking life as it came. All we cared alxntt was whether we “knew it well enough to get jxist, and whether “he or she would wait for me after school! Yet through it all. we felt that life was a hard pro| osition! And with that wee thought, we leave you to | eruse the rest of the Voice. Twenty S ENIOR History of the. Senior Class It was a joyous and victorious clay in Kioher. 1927. when that jxiwcrful Senior Class of 19.H) came inarching up the Mill to State School, to run the mill for three years. The class officers were elected during the first weeks of school. They were as follows: 'resident. Carlton Coin ant: I’iee I resident. C’atiikkink I an ;: Treasurer, Carl Gkiksski.; Secretary, )i.i . Ottman. This class furnished some valuable material for the basketball squad. Through their success we have obtained many victories. In the fall of 192X we entered as the mighty Junior Class. The following officers were elected for the Junior Class: President. Ikvino 11 locks; ’ice I resident. William I.knson; Secretary. Roster D. I I. it:.man ; 't reasurer. Warren Maxon; Student Council Members. Ki vaki McClellan and IIowakd Vaniik-car and Class Reporter, Krnest Newell. 'Phis class was marked by the wonderful part played during this successful year under the title “ Juniors.' Then came the most lieautiful fall of 1929. when we came up the Mill as Seniors. This gave us full rule over the new and ignorant Krcshmcn. Kor the first term the following officers were elected: I resident. Warkkk Maxon; Vice-President, VVii.i.i.am I.knson ; Secretary, Lewis Kirbv; t reasurer, Lynn McDokkek; Voice Reporter. Jansen Dkdkkick and Student Council. Carl Gilmore, Wadsworth Oliver. Ci.akk.xck Mac Mui.i.kn an«l Henry Robinson. One of the most imjMutant events was the Kreshmen-upperclassmcn rush. In this contest the Juniors joined with the Seniors to lake the victory. The results were marked in our favor. Kveryone maintained remarkably good sportsmanship throughout the struggle. Several dances were held after the Iwiskethall games. All seemed to he a great success. Then came the mid-year which gave our class a great increase. This resulted from the one year students in Teachers Training C lass. Nome Kcouninic Department. and the Agriculture Department. After this new list of Seniors, officers were elected for the new term. They were as follows: President. Warren Maxon; Vice-President. Maiski. Dietz; Secretary, (iEktrudk Kudu: Treasurer. I avis IIorstmax; Voire Reporter. Jansen Dkoerick; Student Council Members, Carl Gii.mork, Henry Roiiinson. Clarence Mac.Mui.len, W ausworth Oliver. Our time at State School is short and graduation will soon Ik- lu-rc as we look forward into the future to see what road to success or failure we arc going to take. We cannot help the lump in our throats as we leave clear old State School. May our happiness and ex|� erieiicc Ik1 to our advantage in the trials of the future. V. I). II., MO Twenty-three Senior Class Poem The ardent glow of school days O’er the track of time has past; And we, the class of thirty, Upon our ways are cast. As wc voyagers turn with loving gaze, From hills that are fading away Fond memories will gild each mind. And as we turn today No joys in the future can allay The school mates we leave behind. Duty calls, give a sigh for the rest! A glow of ho|)c fills us for things before, For upward and onward we will progress. The future shall wear the laurels of yore-Oh days, that are passing by,— May each one recall with a smile A thrill of gladness, a touch, or a sigh. “That has made these days worthwhile. And then, on life’s tasks as we tread, May there to each heart come The l est, the noblest to be said A vision, a memory of friendships won.

I'orly-lwo It is the year 1950 and New York for over a month now has lx.cn in great excitement over a new clairvoyant, one Madame Valcska. who recently arrived from abroad to make her fortune in America. To her clalx� rately furnished apartment this balmy June day a tall, strangely familiar gentleman arrives. It is no wonder that he is familiar for it is none other than our old classmate Wadsworth Oliver. How time has changed him! It has brought streaks of snowy white to his dark hair, a slight stoop to his shoulders, and broadened his high stature. Perhaps his increased weight is due to the fact that the time he can snatch from his duties as Speaker of the Assembly (having succeeded Nicholas I.ongworth. you remember), he and Mrs. Oliver (the former Evelyn Mosher), spend on the Oliver plantation in Cuba. And carbohydrates are so fattening, lie is ushered into a darkened, mysterious room by an orientally dad maiden who designates him to a chair across from a heavily veiled figure, gazing into a globe on the table. The servant vanishes, the room is in darkness and silence. Slim whis|� crs his request to learn alxmt his classmates lack in N. Y. S. S. A. The silent figure straightens and the veil falls—Behold! there is our friend Bea Tompkins (could the servant have been Mabel?) up to her old tricks again telling fortunes. (Remember the Poverty Hop?) Together they lxmd over the ball, while Bea relates the fortunes and misfortunes of their former classmates and friends. 44 The. globe clears and there, quiet, pensive. j ctite Ethel Anderson appears. Ethel has just returned from the wilds of Africa where she has been teaching the Theory of Brain Localization to the cannilxds. She is quite contented with her life’s work. “ Who is that white haired motherly lady in a rocker telling myths to a group of eager hoys and girls clustered about her? By those still s| arkling brown eyes we recognize Eula Anderson. How contented and happy she apixars! By the way, Eula takes great pride in announcing she was once the youngest ‘ y'an'ma ’ in America. “ Next I see a crowded theater and a tall figure on the stage singing “ Sonny Boy.” No, it is not Al Jolson—but only Chris Ayres. Since the passing of Al, Chris has been celebrated as the world’s greatest tap dancer and Mammy Singer.' “Observe closely now. I see a beautiful Spanish cottage in Hollywood. Descending the broad front walk is Frank W. Arnold, better known now to the world as John Barrymore the Second. Now, do you recognize Coney Island? There at the entrance to the 4 Steeple Chase’ is old Ed. Barnes selling tickets. Some people say that the brunette at his side is that certain party from Troy who is now Mrs. Barnes. 44 Why that stout, dark-haired woman lecturing to a mass of citizens, caul he Mabel Bassler. Yep. it’s no one else but. Sch x l teaching didn’t satisfy Forty-three Mabel's desire for expression and for the past twelve years she has been a political lecturer. Her topic is: ‘Man Suffrage—Women I lave Suffered I � ng Enough.’ What a host of supporters Mattel has! “There is Dorothy Bixby. We see her as a stout housewife hurriedly preparing the evening meal for hubby and the children. No wonder Skeezix is hurrying, for hasn’t Milton promised to hitch up old Dobbin and take the family to the village for Prayer Meeting? “ Kay Bates hasn't entirely forsaken the teaching profession. Kay has applied ‘ Law of Transfer of Training ’ she learned in Miss Biles’ Psychology class and now she is professor in the Bates’ School of Auto Anatomy ’ situated at Hyndsville, New York. “The glotie now takes us to the icy shores of the Pribilof Islands. 11 ere I see Mary Dibble (Mac Mu lien) and Wilma Becker (Tompkins) operating an attractive room. Those two blondes from the ‘Home lie ’ have continued their school day friendship and together arc serving hot lunches to the Eskimos. Meanwhile, their husbands, Niles and Clarence, have formed the company ’ Tompkins and MacMullcn, Inc..’ and arc selling T model Fords to the natives. “ You have reason to Ik- surprised at this next picture, for who ever would have expected to find bashful Bill Benson in the ]x sition of costume-designer for the chorus girls in the Ziegfeld Follies. Just the same here he is and he assures us that it is a most fascinating position. “Fayette Bilick is the proud owner of a blacksmith shop in C’obleskill. Besides his enormous trade of shoeing horses, he spends a great deal f his time-shooing the neighbors’ cows from his garden. “After leaving State School Leslie Crain bought a dairy farm. But you know, one has to be so neat and ‘spick-span in that business. That isn’t l-es’ style so be has gone in for swine raising. “Just look, here we see two others of the class of ’30 who have lnrcome famous in the held of acting. The lights of Broadway announce that Ken Bouek is now playing ‘Romeo’ to Gladys Camplx-H’s ‘Juliet.’ Remember how good Ken always was to help us out in plays at State School? Gladys was vice-president of our Dramatic Club. They have the best wishes of their class in their chosen career. “ None of us could imagine Ward Copland's future, could we? Well, here we see him back at State School instructing the freshmen concerning their tasks while on barn duty. “ The globe clouds, but see how quickly it clears revealing a large brick building with Frances Dcdek in the art of basket ball. ’ Frcnchy ’ is the athletic teacher in the new Orphan Asylum at East Worcester, New York. As yet Frcnchy is not married, but she says she is still waiting patiently for that tall, dark, professional man to show up. 1 ho] c he makes his ap| carnncc soon for that red—(pardon me) that auburn hair is fast becoming grey with the worry of waiting. Forty-four “Well, well if there isn’t Jansen Declerick occupying a |x sition as foreman of a large cattle ranch in Texas. Since leaving State School Jansen has been everything from a big butter and egg man in Pumpkin Center to prop lx y ’ for the Universal Motion Picture Company, lie declares he will continue his varied career until he finds the one girl who is different from the rest. “ The next person 1 see is George Dickens. George has recently finished his first talking picture of ‘ Peck's Had Hoy.’ Who can doubt George’s ability to |x� rtray this character when we remember him as Mr. Huey’s pest. “The globe now shows us sunny blue skies of Italy. In one of those large houses facing the Grand Canal of Venice, we see Mal el Diet ., our vice-president, successfully managing a home. Hut take it from Mabel, herself, this life of being the better half of a Sergeant in the Royal Guards is not all it is cracked up to be. Kspecially when hubby has been assigned to a year’s duty in Africa. “ The next view we get is that of a little red school house in one of our western states. I ooking through the o| encd door. I see a man on a tall step-ladder scraping spit balls from the ceiling. It looks as if Walter Diet is getting paid back for some of the teasing he did to his T. C. teachers. Nevertheless, Walter says that he is glad lie ‘stuck to’ the teaching profession, for in fifteen more years, if nothing hapj)cns, he’ll get his | ension. “ I see a tattered, ragged beggar eating his meal on the back porch of a farm house. At school h’rcddie lickler never worried about his studies and now. we see, he never worries about his meals. Mis motto is 'Why worry? Don’t we always have two chances?’ “ We are shown a large Tractor Company and there is Kenneth Fngvold still talking alxmt machines. This time to a prospective buyer of one of his machines. Ken is recognized as one of the country’s Ixrst tractor salesmen, lie knows his machinery! “ There is a 240 acre sheep ranch in Fairland operated by Ken bellows. Ken is pretty proud of his good management of this sheep project. Within the house we see stout, good natural, changeable Sue White. We presume Sue has fallen her last great fall and realizes Ken is the right one after all. “ Hack to a little town in Flssex County, we find Mrs. Fisher surrounded by her children, grandchildren, and friends, living in a newly built bungalow. Mrs. Fisher doesn’t teach any more; she made a fortune in revising myths so that they will be more easy to read for the busy Training Class Students. “Another of our classmates is quickly becoming famous. Mildred Forte has an important position with the Melrojxilitan Ojwra House. This |xirticular time Mildred is enjoying a week’s vacation in her rooms on Riverside Drive. You see, this week only nun ushers were wanted at the C)] cra House. “Just a minute! There! Sure enough that’s the Woolworth 5 and 10c store. I here is Ida Gage as saleslady behind a comb and mirror counter. At last Ida has found peace and rest, for no matter which way she turns a comb and looking glass are at band. No more will Ida have to wait hours to comb her hair. Forty-five “Carl Gilmore owns a farm on the outskirts of Coblcskill. l ie plants the land to |K)tatocs exclusively. On Saturday afternoons. Carl is seen selling his jxjtatoes to the villagers. Ilis brand is Dibble’ and they arc good sellers. “ In the Catskill Mountains is a large Ixiarding bouse operated by Mrs. lCdna CirilVm and husband. The main feature «� f this hotel is (bat airplanes arc used for taxis. Edna says Chevrolcts are not very reliable. It happened that Foster lla|)cman wanted to stay in New York State and farm, Loretta O'Brien wanted logo abroad. So they compromised and went to India. There we see Foster engaged in rice raising, while Loretta is teaching the native children their A. B. C s. We ho| e l-orctta doesn't tell the kiddies dial these aren't to Ik believed. “ We see a yellow cab leave the traffic and pull to the curb. At the wheel is our friend Ernest Guntert. lie has, no doubt, profited by the experience he received as chauffeur to Loretta and Foster. In the glolie we see a small farm nestled in the hills of Vermont. Marion Hart ( Mudge) is caring for the house and children, while Johnny works the fields. “ Who is that large man in rubber hoots and overalls proudly surveying his land planted to vegetables, berries and what not? It's Irving ‘Hus' Hedges! Bus is the owner of a well known vegetable farm near Los Angeles. California. At bis side stands Gertrude Fluid, our worthy secretary. Cert admits she doesn't know a great deal about this vegetable business for she has quite all she can do to look after the little ‘ Hedges’ and flowers about the house. “The glolK takes us now to a scene in Uarnum and Bailey's circus Who should we find there hut Joan Hodoroski who is successfully playing the part of the Fat Lady.' But that’s not all Barniim and Bailey holds for us for farther down in the same row of tents is our friend Marion Jacobs in the role of the ‘ Bearded Lady.’ We always said Marion was a lx rn actress. “ Lewis Ilorstman, our treasurer, is crack radio announcer at station Wl I NY. He prolxibly got his training hack in State School announcing basketball games. Ouiet, studious, red-haired ’Chet' I totaling is still teaching, lie has taken up Americanization and is now teaching the Chinese immigrants that ain't ain’t good English. “The little home of Mr. and Mrs. Olaf Johnson appears. Mrs. Johnson, you know, is the former Millicent Hoyt. Olaf is no longer a clerk in the Cohlc-skill Bank, hut is earning his living by doing odd jobs about the neighborhood. Judging from that, Millicent hasn’t entirely outgrown her vamping habits. “Steady, now! There it is! A scene at the Olympic Gaines. Here we arc amazed to find Irene llyney in the midst of a fancy diving net. We could hardly imagine Irene anything hut an old maid school teacher. What changes time works! “ Which one of us can help remembering the ambition and initiative of Dorothea Jennings? At last. Dot has received due reward and lias been appointed chief fly swatter to the President. Forty-six “ In every group of people there is generally some one destined to a life of unhappiness. It looks like poor Klossic Kane received the sorrow of our crowd. Within the ball we sec her dragging out a spiritless, hapless existence on the island of St. Helena. Life holds nothing for I'lossie since Milton decided that he preferred the other girl. ()nr sympathy is yours. I' lossie. Ixwis Kirby is a prominent business man on the Hast Side.

W. D. Juniors On tlu- return of the Junior C lass we found that we had nineteen students to represent it. They were all anxious to return and get a glimpse of the l'tosh; who had occupied the hill for one week previously. After live weeks here, we became organized by electing the following officers for the fall term: President, Austin Alle: Vice-President, John Morris; Secretary. Cieorge I'.rick.sen; Treasurer, Laurence Dean. The student council members were James Leggett. Richard Schoonmaker and Karl Rickard. Student Voice reporter was Stanley Pest. I'acuity Adviser, K. N. Moot. With these officers in charge we were able to do our share of the work necessary on the Hill. A few weeks later along came the usual Prosit rush. It took place one Saturday morning about 11 o'clock. It was held on the football field. Certain Juniors and Seniors were excluded from the rush on account of having to play a game of football in the afternoon, and also the Alumni basketball game to be played that night. In spite of this handicap we came out victorious as usual. This year’s class basketball team turned out to Ik: very successful. We had good comjKtition for the team. Ward Ilincs was elected manager. Our captain was John Morris. With the cooperation of these two men, the team was unusually successful. A little later in the year the Junior class met to elect their spring term officers. At this meeting we received seven new Juniors, who were Lreshmen the first half of the year. This addition made the class considerably larger with a total of twenty six students. The officers elected were as follows: President. Guy Myers; Vice-President. Prank Prior; Secretary, Raymond Paright; Treasurer, Karl Rickard. The student council members were Richard Schoonmaker, James Leggett, and William Dorpfcld. The Voice reporter was Stanley Best. On February 15. 1950 the Junior class gave a box social, held in the school auditorium. Games were played after the social. Kverybody present had an enjoyable evening I'm sure. We cleared all expenses and added to the treasury considerably. The football captain for next year was elected from the Junior class, it being James Leggett. We expect an exceedingly good football season next year. I am sure that the Junior class has had ;t very prosperous year and has done all it can to keep up the standards of the school. Stanley L. Best Fifty-seven Freshmen Wo wonder xvliat those who said “ Poor Freshmen at the loginning of the year, would have said if they could have seen us at the- meeting held January 21. 1930. after the two year and one year men had left our midst. It was quite discouraging to enter the meeting and find only nine able bodied men left, lint as the saying goes. “ You can never keep a good man down. we reorganized and now have Tator for president. Van Valkenburg for vice-president. Gardiner for treasurer and Dunn for secretary. W e might look weak hut we hope to conquer our Fresh-mcn year liettcr than any class before us. K.

'Pile Student Council, now that the year is past, and it no longer need tell you just how bad you are. wishes to compliment you, the I'Ycshman class, as a whole, for your fine behavior throughout the year. You have followed those rules we laid down, in a manner heretofore foreign to hYeshmcn. However, this does not imply that you are in any way perfect. That state of being is not reached until one's Senior year. Nevertheless, we extend the hope that in the very near future you will achieve the upiK-rclassmen's envied estate, and ultimately, i erfection. Ol.IVKK Six tv-five Qirls’ Student Council One of the first things the girls had to do when they reached State School in September was to elect a Student Council. There were two members elected from the girls staying in town, three members elected by the girls who commute, one from the Home Economics Department and one from the Teacher Training girls living at the dormitory. The following were elected: President, Marc a ret Kudd; Pier President. Maiiki. Dietz: Secretory. Mi lucent IIovt; Treasurer. Alice Schell: Lilevene Bydek. Klokence Swatlino. and Loretta O'Brien. Miss llodgdon, the faculty advisor of the Council, entertained the newly elected girls at a banquet at the Hotel Agustan. After the mid-year examinations the following girls were elected to the student council: President, Mabel Dietz; Vice-President. Gladys Campbell; Secretary, Millicent 11 oyt; Treasurer, Alice Schell; Doris Kohinson, Dorothea Jennings and Loretta O’Brien. The Girls’ Student Council and the Boys' Student Council coo| eratcd in giving an entertainment at State School for the student body. It consisted of a banquet, card games and dancing and a theater party. On the whole, we consider we have passed an extremely successful year. L.

Our instructor, Mr. 'Peed, has given untiring supervision and elTorl toward the greatest ] ossil)le success of the orchestra.

No. 1499. ICarly in November the election of the senior grange officers took place. With a bright and prosperous future they went to work with a great amount of enthusiasm. 'The thought came to these industrious workers that it would Ik1 wise to establish a young jX’oplc’s organization within the grange. It was thought that this would create a greater interest in grange work among the young people and also it would be of great educational value. 'Hie thought was put into practice and an organization called the Young People’s Society was founded. Requests for membership were announced to the student body. U| oii hearing this announcement, forty-live students asked for the privilege to Income memlters. Ami on November fifteenth the first and second degrees were conferred on the forty-five candidates. At the next meeting night the third and fourth degrees were added to the candidates' initiation. This group l cmg organized it became necessary to have regular officers. So the following were elected; 1C. Yaii. Siiki.dkn. Worthy Master: Mju.icicnt Hoyt, Overseer; Oi.in Van Vai.kicniumu;. S envrd; Mrs. M. 1C. Fisiikk. I.ee-Hirer; Wai.tku Vooki..

Since we have been organized we feel that we have accomplished plenty in the educational and social side of State School life. With the aid of the senior grange we were able to send our worthy master. 1C. Vail Shelden, to the state convention of the grange which was held at Syracuse. There were also two basketball games played on the evening of February seventh for the entertainment of the grangers. In final appreciation to the Senior (irange. we. the Young People’s Society, express our thanks ami gratitude for their aid and for being the founder of our organization. ). VY. 1 . Seventy-three The Dramatic Club Kor the first time in the history of the Voice Annual, there appears a picture of the Dramatic Club. The club was organized in the early part of the fall semester by the members of the Training Class and Home Economics group With the returning of the Ag lx ys in October several of them became part of our group. This made the Dramatic Club an all-round school activity. A constitution was drawn up and adopted for the purpose of making the Dramatic Club a permanent feature in the organizations of State School. The following were elected as officers for the year: President, Maukl Diktz; Vice-President, Gladys Campiikll: Secretary. Gkktkudk Kudo: Treasurer, Marion Hart; Assistant Treasurer. I.ii.ivknk Rydkr; Reporter, Jack I.insi.ky; Pacuity Advisor, Miss Kvki.yn Hodgdon. Several one-act plays were presented as assembly programs. The Dramatic Club supervised the Christmas entertainment which was pronounced quite successful. The club, again, was greatly encouraged in its development when asked by the Seniors to direct the Senior Class I May. In the spring, the club produces a three-act play for the public, thus, concluding its activities for the year. It is the earnest desire of the officers and members of the Dramatic Club that the incoming classes, of future years, will carry on the work so ably done by this year’s Dramatic Club. Jack I.insi.kv Seventy-five A group of students of the school interested in music organized a Glee Club under the direction of Mr. Day. The Glee Club consists of thirty-two members. 'They have taken an active part in school affairs. They cooperated with the Dramatic Club in presenting the Christmas play. A music committee consisting of Loretta O'I.rien and Jansen Ded-crick was appointed and Mr. Day was elected faculty advisor.

Reluming in the fall of ’29 we found we had seven active brothers in the bonds, namely. F.d. McClellan. Lew I lorstman. Hus I ledges. Washie Washlmrn. Ernie Newell, I lank Rohinson and Johnnie Sidney who took Post (iniduate Courses. Also Ivddie Migley who lives in town and attends meetings regularly. Jimmie Lcgget and Dick Schoonmaker soon entere l our ranks as active members. We were also fortunate later in the year to have an alumnus. Morris Kunkle. who took a position at the school and joined us. However, our joy soon gave way to sorrow as he was called to the Hospital. Ilefore Christmas we held our Annual Rush Buiu|uet and Theatre Party with eight freshmen present. After the dinner, which was served at the United Stales Hotel. Mr. Crittenden gave a very interesting talk followed hy Mr. Wheeler, our faculty advisor. Brother Wilbur MacDonald, an alumnus, who intended to speak was unable to he with us because of the weather. After the second semester we pledged three more men. Guy Myers, Hoot Gibson and Rudy Chalfant. After all due ceremonies were gone through, they became full-fledged brothers of our Fraternity to help carry on another year. On January 27th we put on an Assembly Program in charge of Mr. Wheeler. Henry Rohinson was chairman of ceremonies. A very good talk was given by Brother Kunkle on Fraternities.” Brothers Leggett. Schoonmaker. Chalfant, Gibson and Mvers. the freshmen of the Fraternity, gave a few nursen rhymes. The program was closed with Bonds of Old in which all Brothers joined. On March 22nd came our big social event of the year, the annual novelty dance. Excellent music was furnished hy a popular orchestra and the usual good time was had. As we come to the close of this school year, which is the last for some of us. we are confronted with rather mixed emotions. We have a feeling of exhalta-lion in that we have mastered our subjects and received our diplomas, hut along with this comes sort of a melancholy feeling as this is probably the last time we will all he together. We sincerely wish that the graduating class, all future graduating classes and faculty members the very best of success and happiness in the years to come. E.

Epsilon of Theta Gamma began the year with nine active members. Twelve of our number having graduated last year. Soon after Thanksgiving vacation Stanley Best and Austin Alle were taken in. In January, we welcomed into our membership Mil-ton McBorie, Raymond Colburn, George Dickens, Edgar Kukuk and Olin Van Valkcnbnrg. On November 23 the Annual Theta Gamma dance was held. It was a decided success and an affair which, from all reports, everyone enjoyed. Just before Christmas vacation, we held our Rush Banquet and Theater party, at which those students were present who had been invited to join the fraternity. In January, as has been our custom, the fraternity attended the Methodist Church in a body. 'The Rev. I M. Tlagadorn greeted us with some very thoughtful and appropriate remarks. We look back over the events of the year and believe that the year has been highly successful not only in our own fraternity, but in our brother fraternity and school in general. In closing, we wish success to all who are to go out into the great school of life and, to those who will return next year, we hoj c that their successes will be manifold and their remaining time at State School as pleasant as the years which we have spent. liiyhly-six Practice for the first regular season of Football at T. Y. S. S. A. lxtgan September 23. Lloyd Moore, captain-elect. did not return to school; so a meeting of the squad was called at which time Hank Robinson. (|uarterback. was elected. The season opened October 5. at Hart wick College. At this time we had a squad of thirteen men. As the season progressed more men reported but injuries and inexperience kept us out of the winning column for some time. To defeat llarl-wick Seminary and Unadilla, teams that defeated us so severely the season previous, and to l)e the only team to score on Delhi during the season, were achievements of which we feel proud. With six Major and three Minor letter men returning next year die outlook is brighter by far. although the team has at least left a record ol s| ortsmaiiship which we hope and expect future teams are going to maintain. On Wednesday evening. December 17. we bad a get-together in the Cafeteria. After supper short talks were given by Toastmaster Oliver. '29 manager: II. Robinson, ’29 captain; and Washburn, basketball captain. The feature of the evening was an inspiring address by .Mr. Leonard. When the athletic council met to decide on awards, the basis established was a total of live games for a Major letter and two games for a Minor letter. The following awards were made: Major Utters Minor Utters H. KoitlXSOX, C'll .

After the letters were awarded, a meeting of the major letter men was called for the pur] ose of electing captain for the 1930 season. U-ggett. who played a very creditable game at Fullback during the jwist season, was elected. S. Best was chosen by the athletic council to assume the manager's duties.

At the lieginning of the year it was an agreeable surprise to find a good supply of experienced material at band. Practice began early, before football had l een concluded, and it was hard going for some men who were on both the football and basketball squads. Our first tilt came on Novemlier 22. when the Alumni were engaged. The former stars displayed surprisingly excellent teamwork and came through with a decisive victory, against a team that was crippled by the loss of two first string men. Soon after Thanksgiving vacation the squad met Albany High School and went down to a second defeat in as many starts. The game was hotly contested and drop|H d only after a hard struggle when it appeared that we had the game already clinched. Since then the squad has turned out seven straight victories among which arc Onconta, Morrisville, and Cobleskill High School. I he squad has shown a decided supremacy over lx)th the Morrisville and Delhi Aggies, beating l otb outfits handily. The Alfred and New York Aggies are still to lx- met and it is expected that the latter will put up a go xl light to avenge the defeat of last year. Much credit is due Coach Wheeler for the line showing that has Iran made and the remarkable s|x rtsmanshi| lhat has Iran in evidence on all occasions. To the future basketball teams, we, the squad, wish the Ixst of luck and success in the years to come.

Dorothea Jennings and Mabel Dietz members of the squad. Later. Marian Jacobs and Klor-enec Swat ling joined the group. Soon after the season lx-gau. our captain left us and Martha I Mummer was elected captain. Sue White, our manager, was very successful in securing several games for us. Amelia Radez, right forward, was without question one of the most brilliant players of the team. Her speedy passing, combined with her quick and accurate shots made her the highest scorer of the season. Martha Plummer, captain and center and center forward, could outreach her opponents and quickly land the ball in the basket making herself quite a high scorer. Margaret Rudd and l� retta O’Hrien played wonderful guard games the whole season. Lucy Zani, Kthel Anderson and Sue White also were good guards whenever necessary. Millicent Hoyt, left forward, worked hard and played well during the season, making several scores toward the victories. All the other members of the squad helped toward the team’s successful season by their faithfulness in practice, earnest hard work and help in games when needed. Although Mr. Moot, the coach, had all new girls to start a team, he carried them through the most successful year State School basketball girls have had. .Scores Date 'ream S.S. 0 � .

A group of hoys as sturdy, as upright and clean, as one would he apt to find on the face of the earth. A group to Ik- justly proud of. and a group that may Ik- proud of itself. Our life may he divided into three major parts. Studies, Fun. and hood, arranged in the order of their importance, not in our eyes, you may he sure, hut in the eyes of the faculty and, we assume, in the sight of our parents. Under Studies come all those subjects we consider in the classroom. those factors which go to make up the successful farmer. In this same category may he put those lectures we periodically receive on behavior outside the classroom. (Or should these he considered under food? Food for thought.) In the him class are placed those things we have most. Just downright enjoyment, student activities and doings. Something is always taking place on the I lill. Itasketball. Football. Tennis, Dances or Parties, some mischief is always brewing! In this same group may he placed the School organizations. Orange. dee Club, etc. As for Food, it is the farmer’s mainstay, and needs no discussion ! With this brief summary, our Ag group ljcgs to be excused, the. Seniors to take their leave, the h’rosh that they may prepare for another years’ work, as Juniors, and the Juniors that they may prepare to handle the h'rosh! Adios. ( )uvi:k Ninety-seven The Training Class I epartiiic nt of State School is alxnit to bring to a close another successful year. In spite of the unfavorable reports concerning the dropping of this department entirely, which were passed out during the latter part of the preceding year, September 3, 1929. brought to the doors of State School, a small army of future teachers, thirty-nine strong. Eight counties arc represented, with Schoharie County in the lead, contributing sixteen members. Four of the class of thirty-nine are young men. Quickly we became accustomed to the new and strange surroundings, and learned what this course was all about. In these matters we were greatly aided by our teachers. Miss nna Biles and Miss Evelyn llodgdon. The faculty gave us a “ get acquainted party ” on the Quadrangle during the first days of our sojourn here, livery one had a good time and many new friends were made. Soon we elected our Student Council representatives. This is an organization established in 1926 as an attempt at student government. It takes the place of our parents’ do’s and don’ts at home. The Training Class students have had much practice teaching experience this year, both in the school’s rural school at Cherry Valley Junction and in the grades at Richmondvillc. During the absences of the teacher at Cherry Valley Junction school, the student teachers under the supervision of the Training Class teachers, ably conducted the school and arranged the Christinas exercises for the children. In the spring each member of the class gets two weeks’ ex| erience in some rural school. But the work and pleasure of Training Class days are quickly passing and we must say good-bye to our friends. Alma Mater and teachers. As the ever widening pathway of the future opens before us, the memory of those sunny, busy days at State School will he to us an enduring inspiration and a treasury of happy recollections to enrich all the days to come. M. E. Diktz, 30 Ninety-nine Home Economics Notes When tile new school year began in September, 1929. ten girls registered for the Home Kconomics course at State School. During the first semester the iris held several parties. The one that was most im|M rtant to them was the Christmas jxirty. W hen the second term opened in January. 19A0. there were seven girls left, who wished to complete the course. These seven have taken part in a great many of the school activities, some arc members of the varsity basketball, others are Glee Club memlxM's. Before the varsity basket ball squad was picked, the Home Kco-nomics girls played their inter-class games losing to the Teacher Training girls in both games. Those taking the course are: Millicent Hoyt. Rose Krawec. Mary Dibble, Joan 1 lodoroski, W ilma Becker. Mary MacConnell and Marian Hart.

To withstand constant handling the covers are as sturdy as artistic. The type is clear, harmonious, balanced. A patented process makes it possible for us to produce cuts which retain all the pristine clearness of the original photographs. So well do we serve our schools that invariably the staffs have recommended us to their successors. It will be a pleasure to discuss with you the details of your next annual. The Brandow Printing Co.
