dlmtinr QUass As the school year nineteen hundred and thirty-five nears its termination, the history of another Junior Class is written into the annals of Schuylerville High School to serve as a record for posterity. Since nothing can be successfully accomplished without the expert guid- ance of a capable leader, at the beginning of the year, after careful considera- tion, the class of 1936 elected Elmer Boyce president. Others elected to aid him in his administration were: vice-president, Marjorie Cromie; secretarv, Elsa Pratt; treasurer, Cecil Hunt; and Student Council representative, Law- rence Young. 1 hroughout this year, our Junior Class thought continuallv of two things, the Junior Prom and the junior rings. Our sincere desire was that we might make our Prom successful, and our class accomplished this after much hard and earnest work selling candy and sponsoring tea dances. Every- one enjoyed our Prom, and it was a tremendous success! Also, we received our junior rings. With the fulfillment of these two ambitions our Junior year was complete. Lastly, to Miss Mary R. Healy, our Junior Class advisor, goes much of the credit for the success of the Junior Class. Without her helpfulness and willing advice, the Junior Class would not be able to lay claim to the glory which it has truly earned. Marjorie Cromie '36 I Seventeen

 uplimtuir? (Elasa Bialnry In September 1933, a slightly awed, if not somewhat frightened, group of students entered the coveted portals of Schuylerville High. During the first few days, their affairs were in a turmoil. They had to locate the different recitation rooms, become acquainted with teachers, and, hardest of all, cope with the difficulties of new subjects. Consequently, the new' freshmen were quite bewildered. However, in a few days things were righted and eventually the freshmen of 1934 became the sophomores of 1935. Again, new' problems confronted them and were solved thru patience and diligence. New paths to sources of knowledge presented themselves. These were made wider and easier by the able guidance of the teachers. It will be interesting to watch their progress thru the more difficult days to come, and their final success when they, too, graduate from S. H. S., secure in the knowledge that their years of school work have fitted them for the hardest struggle of all, the battle of life. The class officers elected were: Presidents, Ray Stevens and William Cummings; Vice-presidents, Ave McGarry and Mary Flatley; Secretaries, Catherine Morrill and Marjorie Mathis; and Treasurers, Alberta Morrill and John Peters.
