THE LOG OF OUR VOYAGE AS A DIARY holds the secrets of the past, so our log reveals the events of our past scholastic voyage. A-B-C-D— so we set sail on our course. From first grade on we’ve met our obstacles and overcome them, while all the time our minds developed and our sea legs grew. Our first great port at which to land was our high school. With keen anticipation we looked forward to our new adventure. Finally the great day arrived, but joy was quite subdued by timidity and strange- ness. “Green” is what the seniors called us. We then exclaimed with a sigh, “How grand it must feel to be a sophisticated senior, ready soon to leave the friendly harbor for the turbulent sea of life.” Sooner than we imagined we were quite accustomed to our new school life. Time passed very swiftly with hard work at our new studies. We were on the way. As sophs we felt quite elated. There were new freshmen to give some friendly advice while we were completely accustomed to our new habitation. Many new friends were made, even from the senior class. Again a year passed by. With Miss Healy and Mr. Stanton we spent one grand year. During these 40 weeks we bought our lovely junior rings. As usual, the arguments and heated appraisals and dislikes accompanied the purchase. We earned our first money in selling candy. Our Prom was, of course, our biggest event. Beautifully decorated, the auditorium became the place of an enjoyable evening for all who attended. Also, in our junior year, a weekly banking account was started towards individual senior trip funds. This proved to be a great help to us in our last year. In May a great event occurred. Two of our fellow classmates were tapped by senior Honor Societj' members. Moving-Up Day was also one of the gala occasions of this school year. Almost before we knew it September came again, and we were full- fledged seniors. Where was that feeling of sophistication? We hadn’t seemed to gain it.. Yet, we did have a greater feeling of importance knowing that soon we would be on tbe unknown sea of life. In November we put on a very successful senior play, “Amy from Arizona.” After this event we began to make more plans about our senior trip. Finally, after careful consideration, we decided to “get to Washington or bust !” We just weren’t satisfied with only New York City. We planned many food sales which were very profitable with the splendid cooperation of all the town people. A new feature of enjoyment for this school was a Carnival with “side shows”, “hot dogs”, and “pink lemonade”. In February we gave a large card party in our auditorium where everyone spent an en- joyable evening. Then we also put on an assembly program and sponsored two tag days. Because of these activities we found it possible to accept the “Green Tour” to Washington with two days in New York. In the beginning of the senior year four other members were tapped for the National Honor Society. In April another member was chosen. We were proud to have the group raised to seven members.

We bequeath to the faculty members the dedication of this “Schuyler” for their hard work in helping and guiding us during our school career. To the undignified Juniors we bequeath our Senior Class room and also Miss Shannahan, who we know will assist you at any time. We also hope that you Juniors will be as worthy of this room as we Seniors have been. To the Sophs we give the dignity and seriousness of the Seniors. To the young Freshmen we leave the Seniors’ manners and scholastic ability.

We give John Coffin’s ability to build and model things to Albert Young; quietness of John Hamm to Bon Callahan; and the quiet manner of Marion Coonrad to Marv Tanner.
