We left Schuylerville by private cars at 6:30 Monday morning, April 18, to be at the Albany Station at 8:20 A. M. The weather was rainy, but by the time we arrived at our destination the rain had ceased. We arrived in Washington at 6:15 P. M. The highlight of this part of the journey was crossing the Hudson River from New York to New Jersey by ferry. That evening, we were much impressed by the grandeur of the beauti- fully illuminated Congressional Library. To be able to study in that read ing room should inspire anyone. Tuesday and Wednesday were devoted entirely to sightseeing. We visited the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, where it was thrilling, but tantalizing to gaze upon a share of the Nation’s wealth. The National and Smithsoneon Museums provided a paradise for art-lovers. Then there was a special visit to the Bureau of Federal Investigation where a “G” man acted as guide to explain fully how criminals are successfully “tracked down.” Special letters enabled us to go through the White House. We likewise visited the U. S. Capital and the U. S. Supreme Court Building, where guide service was included. A ride to the top of the Washington Monument was most enjoyable because of the expansive panorama of the surrounding territory brought to view. One afternoon was devoted to a trip to Mount Vernon, the home and last resting place of George Washington. A stop to the Arlington National Cemetery was made, where we were fortunate in seeing a funeral of a soldier. While on this stop we visited the Lee Mansion, the Am- phitheatre, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Here, we were able to witness the impressive ceremony of the changing of the guards. On our return trip we stopped at Alexandria. We also stopped at the Lincoln Memorial, a very impressive spot. Another entire afternoon was spent at Annapolis; we arrived in time to see the cadets march in from the drill field, then visited many of the prominent buildings—McDonough Hall, Bancraft Hall, the Chapel where lies at rest John Paul Jones, and Dahl- gren Hall where the midshipmen have indoor drills. On our way back we went to the Franciscan Monastery. The catacombs, a replica of the original ones of Rome, were grand to see. All evenings were free for us to further acquaint ourselves with Washington and the friendly folk there. We started back to New York at 11:30 A. M. Thursday morning. Upon our arrival in New York, busses transported us to the Victoria Hotel. While in New York a group of us visited the broadcasting studio, “toured” through the world’s largest stores, and tried to absorb some of the phases of New' York life. Most of us took in the Tommy Dorsey pro- gram; many went to the Yankee stadium to see the Yanks play the Senators. We stayed in New' York until Saturday afternoon. We arrived home tired but very happy with our minds filled with “So Many Memories.” We hope that next year our heirs, the Juniors, have the opportunity to visit the beautiful city of Washington and have as pleasant a time as we had. —Jane Cormie, ’38. —25— m TCRy fcylights o H, WHAT a tailspin! Or is this a loop-the-loop? What can those thunderous roars from the direction of Albany mean? The regents, of course! Hang on everyone! It’s a forced landing! As our airship settles peacefully on the ground, the pale green tint of the faces around me denotes that the class has been examining its rather obscure past. The dignified seniors sink into oblivion and become once again the timid, bewildered freshmen. A ripple of snickers arises as we uproot the memory of our Senior Class president in socks and knickers. What a year! The seniors were as unapproachable idols, and we prayed for the day to arrive that we might look down from our pedestals upon the lowly freshmen. Early in our high school career we discovered that we were to be the “black sheep’’ class. “Actions speak louder than words” was our motto. Leadership and activity flourished in our ranks. We lowered the dignity of the seniors in our sophomore year when they defeated us by a mere two points in a memorable game which saw the rise of those courts stars, Frank Nacy and Spence Boyce. Thus we established a permanent place for ourselves in the world; the weather report for the future read, “Clear and pleasant.” In the junior year we again took matters into our own hands and broke the age-old tradition of the Junior Prom. The girls established themselves in the political world by losing the presidential campaign to the boys by two points. The senior girls were forced to recognize our athletic ability when we defeated them in interclass basketball. The spectacular senior play, which broke all box-office records, brought Hollywood talent scouts to their toes, as future Clark Gables and Myrna Loys became front-page news. All thoughts now turned toward our Washington trip, as our motto became “Washington or bust.” Each money- making proposition brought us one step nearer our goal. Then came the unforgettable experience. A week of sleepless nights and fun-filled days carried us into paradise—only to be brought to earth again by endless preparation for the great event—graduation. As the thunderous roars of regents subside and we soar once more into the clouds, we hope this “black sheep” class may have left just a few good marks of remembrance. We may have been impetuous and thoughtless at, times, but ever such is youth ! —26— PROPHECY Glimpses thrciigh the deeds A x A S I sat in the waiting room at the airport waiting for the storm to cease and the plane to “take off,” I fell asleep—and this is what I dreamed. Hhe storm was over. The dark gray clouds had parted revealing silver linings and a golden sun. The clouds drew apart slowly as do the curtains at the opening of a play, and the figures “19-18” flashed into sight. This was followed by a series of rapidly moving pictures of each member of the 1988 graduating class ten years from today. The first picture—I set out from Rochester City Hospital with my pal “Deni” Coffin. We were both graduates and had standing positions in the hospital where the chief surgeon Anthony Corsetti had just completed a successful operation on Paul Sloane, who was injured while doing a high- diving stunt for Barnum and Bailey’s Circus. When we stepped on the train headed for New York City, I recognized “Dom” N'ardelli as the conductor. The train passed through several tunnels, which accounted for Dominick’s new nickname, “Tunnel Xardy.” Across the aisle from us sat the noted journalist, Frank Coffin, who was writing a colossal story about the spec- tacular marriage of George Williams to Olive Blodgett, the latest movie siren. At the first stop a second picture showed Mazie Cook, a ventriloquist, entering the train amid much commotion. Dorothy Boivin was trying in vain to capture her infant protegees who insisted on following Mazie. Third picture—Jane Connie, notebook in hand, was following her employer Leon Gagne, to the dining car where she would complete the letter that he was dictating. The letter was to be sent to John McCarty to collect for the diving suit that had been sold to him the previous year. At noon we made our way to the dining car where we were fed by waitresses under the direction of the chief cook, Margaret Arsenault. Having satisfied our appetites, we returned to our seats. At tjhe next stop we were amazed to hear the newsboy Ed Sullivan yelling “Extra! Extra! Rita De Grechie First Girl to Win Albany to New York Outboard Motorboat Marathon!” We purchased a paper and discovered that Rita had been driving her husband’s boat ever since she had left school. In minor headlines of the same paper we discovered that “Wes” Bovce, concert pianist, had left for a tour of Europe with a broken heart after the Blodgett-Williams marriage. I felt a draft and looked up to see my old classmate Marie Arsenault, ,now a physical instructor, standing before an open window giving exercises to the great scientist, “Little Joe” Sulli. Next picture—The air was stuffy in the railroad car, so I went out on the observation platform. As we passed through a small town, the tele- graph operator, whom I recognized as Albert Yandow, hailed me. Sud- denly directly behind me I heard a giggle and recognized the laughter of an old classmate, era Betts. She informed me that since her start in the senior playr she had been acting as a comedienne on Broadway. During my chat with Vera I learned that the Walsh twins were modeling for a dress —27— shop in San Francisco, Elaine Cromie was a teacher in a school in New York City, and Clifton Hunt, having won a Rhodes scholarship, was now at Oxford. She also informed us that “Red” Miner was drawing the il- lustrations for “Jim” Teahan’s latest novel “Banished With the Breeze,” which was later to be made into a movie starring Leona Thompson as Crimson O’Hara and “Art” Corsetti as Rhett Servant. The train stopped at Grand Central Station and we took a taxi that was driven by “Ray” Wood. While tearing around the block for the third time at the terrific speed of twenty miles an hour, we collided with another taxi. Before “Ray” could collect his wits he had received Lawyer Turcotte’s personal card and the news that Turcotte would do the col- lecting from then on. We decided to walk the remaining distance to tihc Yankee Stadium, but when we discovered that “Kate” Ellis was a guide for a small tour about the city, we changed our minds and took the tour. While in Radio City, included in the tour, we wrere happy to meet “Bea” Wilson who took us to the observation tower. In our tour of the slums we met Ruth Thorne, now one of the greatest social workers of the time. As we passed by the Metropolitan Opera House we found that Helen Pechette, a concert pianist, was playing in her first performance that night. Her latest teacher Rosamond Mac Dougall was wringing her hands in nervousness. When our tour ended, we left the bus directly in front of “Ye Old Beauty Shoppe” owned and operated by Mildred Ellis and Elsie Olson. Sitting under the dryer nearest the door was Eleanor Gaudette, biting her nails for fear her hair would not be dry in time for her to meet her pal Dorothy De Grechie. They were to attend a party given in honor of the secretaries of Mile. Marion Hewitt. The last picture that flashed before me was that of a baseball game at Yankee Stadium. The contestants were the Yanks and the Giants. The stands were packed to capacity, but the only spectator I recognized was the former Velda Cramer, now the wife of a successful lawyer. As we took our places in the reserved seats we were surprised to see Spencer Boyce, our old classmate, selling “Cigarettes, candy and chewing gum— ten cents!” It was the last half of the ninth inning; the Yanks were at bat with the bases loaded and two men out. Glenn Pratt, bat boy, was removing the bat thrown down by the last batter when a thunderous wave of applause went over the crowd. The sensational rookie Frank Nacy was up next. The Giants’ southpaw, Cy Currier, had stepped to the mound. The first ball was right over the plate for a called strike. This was followed by two balls and another strike. A deadly silence had settled over the stadium. The pitcher looked around, took his time, wound up and let go. “Ball, too high!” called umpire Henry Edie. Beads of perspiration stood out on the forehead of the pitcher as he wound up for the pitch that would tell the story. At last! The ball had left the pitcher’s hand; it went like a streak of lightning; Nacy raised his bat and then—I woke up. —28— —Irene Gravelle, ’38. I ' ifc— SNSs.

The play, a hilarious comedy, was preceded by rehearsals that were far from being boring to the cast. Because of the untiring efforts of Miss Healy, the director, the play was a great success.

Under the expert coaching of George Decker we had a fine team, but the experienced competition was too great for the newly organized team. Last year Edwin Robbins was ace player; then came Joe Sulli, Frank Xacy, Mac Harvey, James McLindon and Henry Mezera. As the end of the season neared, a new star player came into sight, Art Corsetti. This year Art will be the dangerous man. The team is expected to be much stronger, and we sincerely hope that it will be a great success. —Henry Mezera, ’39.

The Orange Craters HE “ORANGE ORATORS” of S. H. S. had the second most successful year in their history. Under the supervision of Coach Louise V. Stefic the debaters, with only two veterans, defeated Gloversville High School, Co-Champions of New York State, 8 to 0. In the league the affirmative defeated Sillwater High School 4 to 0; while the negative lost to Greenwich 4 to 0. The score for the year was S. H. S. 12, opponents 4. The affirmative, which was undefeated and unscored on, consisted of Catherine Ellis, Elizabeth Burch, Captain Ray Stevens Jr., alternate Edna Van Arnum and time-keeper Robert LaPann. The negative was made up of Arabella Booth, Catherine Caisse, Captain Frank Coffin, alternate Clifton Hunt and time-keeper Frank Ellis. The Debating Club was very active in debating and published an issue of the “Burgoyne Crier”. The Club officers were: Rav Stevens Jr., President; Frank Coffin, Vice-president; Catherine Ellis, Secretary; and Albert Yandow, Treasurer. —33— —Ray W. Stevens Jr., ’37.

Gagne, Manager Basfcetball Team OACH Stanton coached one of the best quintets that Schuvlerville ever had this past winter. The team had the brilliant record of 14- wins against 4 defeats. Three of the Schullers’ losses were league games. This factor gave Ballston Spa the first championship of the newly formed Saratoga County League. Schuvlerville ended up in a second place tie with Corinth. However, this year’s team was a fast one and steam-rollered most of the opposition. “Spence” Boyce, forward of the team, won the individual scoring championship of the Saratoga County League with 170 points. Captain Frank Nacy ,guard, scored 125; and “Dorn” Nardelli, center, was credited with 82. The varsity five and Alfred Corsetti received orange and black jackets at the close of the season. All of this year’s varsity will be lost by graduation except “Bill” Hoey and “Ed” Boyce. The seasonal record follows: Team OP s Valley Falls 5 47 Ballston Spa 33 27 Greenwich 10 21 Luzerne 25 40 Burnt Hills 15 31 Burnt Hills 10 85 Stillwater (overtime) 17 10 Alumni 23 29 Corinth 24 18 Corinth (overtime) 24 20 Cambridge 15 28 Cambridge 16 M Greenwich 30 28 South Glens Falls 16 � 2 South Glens Falls 19 31 Ballston Spa 29 26 Stillwater 21 26 Luzerne 14 31 —Frank Coffin, ’38. —34— g Cress Country T HROl'GH tin efforts of the officials of the New Saratoga County League, Cross Country was introduced into the line of fall sports. The Schuyler boys were coached by C). W. Boivin and at all times showed the right winning spirit which is characteristic of a well-coached group of boys. The dominant factor in our running machine was Captain Frank Coffin, barefoot star of the league. Coffin received no defeats in league competition. The Cross Country League is composed of Burnt Hills, Ballston Lake, Corinth and Schuylerville. High hopes are held for a winning team next year because only three men will be lost via the sheepskin route, namely, Captain Frank Coffin, Ray Wood and Albert Yandow. Reporting for duty next year will be Albert and Don Young, Albert Loomis, John Harris, Joseph Guardiola and a host of new yearlings. —Albert Yandow, ’38. First row, left to right: I). Young- 1).

I nder the supervision of ( oacli Orner .

They then lost a dual meet to Mechanicville 27 to 29. J hen came a heart breaking loss to Greenwich. In the last dual meet Schuvlerville defeated Cambridge 59 1-2 to 44 1-2. t he conclusion and high spot of the season was a thrilling victory in the Northeastern New York State Meet in which S. H. S. defeated Fort Edward 52 to 49. (’aptain Miner was high scorer with 36 3-4 points. Frank Coffin had 34 points, Ed Robbins 33 3-4 points and Spence Boyce 31 1-4.

The Schuylers were a hard luck team all year and lost all the tight games. The Schuylers won their first game 12-8 «ver Ballston with Lefty Currier pitching, but dropped the second to Hoosick Falls despite fine pitching by Bob Cummings and Currier. That gave them a bad start in the Eastern Conference League, and they dropped their next three league games bv close scores. The season, however, was made a successful one by virtue of a 3-2 win over Greenwich and masterful pitching by Joe Currier. Greenwich’s defeat forced them to have a playoff game with Salem for the conference championship. Tony Corsetti was the leading batsman with a .419 mark. Spence Bovce was next with a .342 average. Both collected 1 1 hits for the year. Practically the same team will report for duty next year, and the prospects are height for a Saratoga County League ( hampionship.

Fourth row Soccer Team HK 1937 soccer team of Schuylervillc High School was not very suc- cessful according to the win and loss columns. However, it was soccer’s first year at S. II. S. in recent years, and the boys gained much experience. The team opened its season against Hallston and was swamped by the Purple and Gold veterans, 10-0. Next, Corinth took us by a 4 0 score. Tlmn we lost to Burnt Hills 1-0 in an overtime period. Luzerne next came to town to the tune of 6-0. Against South Glens Falls, the team scored its first and only goal of the season, but lost 2-1. After that, it was the same story all over again; we lost to all the teams again, but by much smaller margins. The record of the season stands, then, as 0 games won and 10 games lost. Four of the games were lost by one point margins. Tony Corsetti, who was captain and high scorer of the S. II. S. soccer team, was one of the outstanding players on the team. Red Miner also played great ball during the season. The great number of freshman and sophomores out for the team augers well for success of the teams in future years. Next year’s team, which will be captained by Robert La Pann, will be practically a veteran team. How ever, the loss of four seniors, Miner, Corsetti, Turcotte and Sullivan will be felt. This year the home games were well-attended. With the same loyaltv and support next year, the soccer team of S. H. S. should be successful. —Robert La Pann, ’39. —38— Junici Class ENI, VIDI, VICI,” ought to be the motto of the present Juniors. We came into the title; we saw what we could do; we conquered the difficulties and produced what we consider a successful class. Cnder the excellent supervision of Miss Healy, our class has made more money than ever before This was due partly to the sudden passion for dancing in school, and also to the diligence of the candy selling members of the class who appeared from both expected and unexpected places with their wares. Again the custom of Junior Prom is to be revived. Anticipation at high tide with the hopes for the best one ever. This, along with the superb class rings, is the fulfillment of the Juniors’ desires.

H Sophomore Class AN K you ever watched a parade pass by? There arc always new ranks ranks coming into sight and then quickly disappearing around the corner. This is my conception of moving up day at school each June—another class moving on out into this world parade and our class, the class of 194 0, moving one step nearer our goal. We began our parade far back in 1937. After our first year wondering what it was all about, we settled down to work and now are near the end of our sophomore year. Everyone knows the sophomore year is the most un- eventful but most enjoyable one in school. The only important thing was the appointing of class officers. In Room 12 they were: President, John Harris; Vice-president, Dorothy Pett; Secretary, Mary Tanner; and Trea- surer, Joseph Cheney. In Room 11 they were: William Carey President, Louis Gagne Vice-president, Leon Sparling Secretary, Leon Blair Treasurer. Our class is a very cooperative and industrious one and is bound to succeed in life’s parade. —Elaine McGarry, ’40. —42— bottom roir, left to right: H. DeLuca. V. Lander. L. I’ett. (' Shernmn. J.

O Freshmen X AX exciting day in September of the year 1937, a slightly awed, if not somewhat frightened, group of students entered Schuylerville High School. This was quite different from the elementary grades because of tin different rooms for recitations, getting acquainted with new teachers, and hardest of all—mastering our new subjects. Consequently, we freshmen were quite excited and bewildered. After a few days things became righted and the “eighth graders” of 1936 became the freshmen of 1937. After realizing that a class cannot be successfully managed without a capable leader, we elected officers. Room 9 elected John McCarthy Presi- dent; Leon Mathis Vice-president; Rodman Funston Secretary; Harry De Luca Treasurer; Betty Martinet and Wesley Pleshko Student Council Repre- sentatives. Room 10 elected Charles Sherman President; Lucille Pett Vice president; Donald Hewitt Secretary; Vera Lancier Treasurer; Margaret Hopkins and Albert Winnev Student Council Representatives. It seems that the seniors think that every freshman should go through a certain degree of bossing and teasing, which were thoroughly demonstrated during initiation week. In order to live up to our name, we had to grin and bear it. We also had our enjoyable events, such as our Christmas party.

HAP! HAP! The class will now conic to order”. Above the din and disorder of the room the voice of our president, Spencer Boyce, volleys forth. The class quiets down, that is for the time being. “We shall now have the secretary’s report.” Ruth Thorne, our All-American girl as well as a very good secretary, reads the minutes of our previous meeting. “April 4, 1938. The senior class opened its weekly meeting with the reading of the minutes. Treasurer’s report was read and accepted. We have three dollars and seventy-three cents in our treasury now—” “Hi!—We ought to have more than that.” some one pipes up. “Ya the treasurer is cheating us.” “Quiet! Ask for permission from the chair if you have an opinion to give.” The class quiets down a second time and on go the minutes. They are accepted by the class. Then comes the treasurer’s report. “We have on hand now”, booms out Clifton Hunt, “three hundred and seventy-three cents to he exact.” “Now there seems to be a disagreement concerning the treasurer’s re- port,” ventures Spencer. “What is it you want to know?” “Well” “O. K.”—“We”—“Well”:—Well, no one wants to know any- thing. “If you have no objections who will make a motion the treasurer’s report be accepted?” “I make a motion the treasurer’s report be accepted.” “I second it.” “The motion has ben mad bv Yelda and seconded by Irene! All those in favor raise their right hands. Motion is carried.” Bzzzzzzzz “Quiet”! Out comes the masterful voice of our beloved president. “Is there any other business?” “Yes, how about another food sale?” “No—Gosh no—my plate for the first food sale we had is still missing!” “Gee, we just had a food sale.” “My mother said she wouldn’t donate any more to our food sales unless she gets her tins back from previous sales.” “Will you keep quiet and speak one at a time!” Now we hear the voice of our class advisor Miss Shannahan. “Class, if you intend to get any work done ,you must lower your voices and have a little order”. “That’s right, Miss Shannahan” pipes up was so impertinent? We shall never know. A the room. “ es, Frank Coffin, have you something someone from the back.
