FRESHMEN The Freshman class of Sehuylerville High School started its march through school in September 1940. In the beginning of the year, after getting settled, we elected officers. Room 10 elected Beryl Fitzgerald. President; Clarence Booth, Vice-President; Mary Lou Dolan, Secretary; Edward DeVoe, Business Manager; Nancy Haas, Richard Townley and Douglas Bean, Student Council Representatives. Room 11 elected Robert Phillips, President: Walter LaVoy, Vice-President; Vernon Miner, Secretary; Doris Bean and Henry Wilson, Student Council Representatives. We worked hard but had loads of fun in our Freshman year. Our Freshman Frolic was a great financial success. The Freshmen entered a play contest for Junior High here in Sehuylerville. and also presented the same plays in an exchange program at Ballston Spa Junior High School. We enjoyed a sleigh ride to Bacon Hill Grange in January. We participated in most sports and proved outstanding in some. The Freshmen boys won intramural basketball and touch football, and the girls won intramural basketball. Raymond Maranville, Beryl Fitzgerald, Arthur Almy, and Robert Haley played on the Junior Varsity Basketball team. We think we’ve done pretty well for our Freshman year and hope to continue to progress as the years go on. Mary Lou Dolan ’44 21

SOPHOMORES Early in September, 1939, a class of approximately 70 students entered the Freshmen rooms. As a group, we felt strange and out-of-place changing rooms teachers, and subjects at the end of every period. Then there was the problem of getting in and out of the locker rooms. We had to adapt ourselves to an entirely new life and surroundings. After we were settled, we set about electing class officers. They were elected as follows: Room 10: President, Donald Forbes; Vice-President, Paul Coffinger; Secre- tary, June Boyce; Treasurer, Rudolph Greenwalt; Student Council Representatives, Marie Blodgett and William Harris. Room 11 elected: President, Paul Beaulac; Vice-President, Herbert Roberts; Treasurer, Fred Pechette; Secretary, Lena Sanders; Student Council Representatives, Timothy O’Brien and Marion Toleman. Our Freshman year, like the other years of our school life, went altogether too quickly. Before we knew it, graduation night was before us. Everyone was excited and somewhat frightened, although we were all glad we had succeeded in our first year of high school. The following September our Sophomore year loomed ahead of us. Getting settled was not a difficult task, as we were acquainted with the rooms, teachers, and other students of the high school. This year Room 12 elected the following class officers: President, Robert Wilson; Vice-President, Marie Blodgett; Secretary, Ann Callahan; Treasurer, William Harris; Student Council Representatives, Timothy O’Brien and Robert Galusha. The Sophomores in Room 9 elected: President, Doro- thy Whiting; Vice-President, June Boyce; Secretary, L na Sanders; Treasurer, Susanna Flanders; Student Council Representatives, Thelma Cormie and Marie Miner. The outstanding event in our Sophomore year was the buying of our class pins. We have not had a dull moment during these first two years, and we are eagerly looking forward to our Junior and Senior years which we hope will be as enjoyable as the years which have gone by. 20 Matilda Hebert ’43
