They are chosen not only for leadership, character, and service but also for scholarship. These members are chosen by Mr. Town ley and members of the faculty. The class of ’42 has given nine students to this society. They are: Leo Kelly, President; Miriam Phillips, Vice-President; Doris Sherman, Secretary; Chauncev De Garmo, Treasurer. Other active members are Elaine Lang, Helen Pleshko, June Launder, Leona White, Edward Ellis, Marie Cormie, and Josephine Arsenault. Only fifteen percent of the students in a class can be selected. This is done in an impressive tapping ceremony, significant of the society’s meaning and worth. All pupils inducted are expected to be worthy of this dignity anl honor. 9 Senior High School 1.

In the September of 1939, approximately seventy Freshmen started on their four years of high school. The outstanding feature of our Freshman year was our gradu- ation from Junior High. The next year we began our Sophomore year together—all except a few who had left school or moved on to a different locality. The purchase of our class pins excited each and every one of us. Our third year of high school, as Juniors, like our previous years has been very successful. We commenced this fall with only fifty of our original seventy. We were very profitable in selling candy during this term. The buying of our class rings was, by far, the outstanding event of this and all years. We had looked forward to them for such a long time. The enthusiasm of our Prom was in every Junior. We thank all for making it such a success. A1'hough. under present conditions, it does not seem as if we will be able to take a trip to Washington in our Senior year, we have worked faithfully and diligently towards it, and we hope we shall be able to do some- thing as a group. The officers this year were elected as follows: Room 14 . President - Iva French Secretary - June Boyce Treasurer - Dorothy Pratt Student Council Representatives— Jean Pechette William Harris Room 16 v President - - - Joe Corsetti Vice-President - Pat Walsh Secretary ... Matilda Hebert Treasurer - Ann Callahan Student Council Representatives— Marie Blodgett Timothy O’Brien We are now all looking forward to our Senior Year and hope to make it the best ever. 22 Matilda Hebert ’43 SOPHOMORES 1.

This year the Class of ’44 entered their Sophomore year with a shade of regret in their h. arts for leaving the rrnk of Freshmen with its newness and fun; yet, we were happy to be advancing. Because we have such a large class, in September we were divided into three rooms—Room 15, under Miss Healy; Room 9, under Miss Mesnig; Room 18, under Mr. Yaple. The class officers were elected as follows: Room 15 President - Beryl Fitzgerald Vice-President - Vernon Towns Secretary - Mary Lou Dolan Business Manager - - Robert Phillips Room 18 Business Manager - - George Canzeri President - Douglas Bean Vice-President - Clarence Booth Secretary - William Spinks Room 9 Secretary - . - Violet Johanson Two of the outstanding events during our Sophomore year were: A very success- ful round and square dance and the presentation of a one-act play, entitled “A Birds- eye View of Mabel,” which was presented in an exchange assembly program at South High. Because we have enjoyed our Sophomore year so much, we dislike leaving it now, but we are looking forward to our Junior year with prospects of class rings, prom, and a happy coming term. 23 Mary Lou Dolan FRESHMEN 1.

In September at the beginning mi Freshman v ar in S huvlerville High School, we welcomed many new students from out of town to our Freshman class. One of our first tasks was to select our class officers. As our class was so large, we were placed in two home rooms, hence each room had it own officers. Room 10 elected John Riordan, President; Mary Young, Vice-President; Edith Garnsey, Secre- tary; Laura Winney, Treasurer; Bertha Harris and Guv Corsetti. Student Council Representatives. The pupils in Room 11 elected: President, Ruth Willette; Vice- President, Wayne Lang; Secretary, Mary Booth; Treasurer, Joseph Cartwright; Stu- dent Council Representatives, Margaret McGowan and Robert O’Brien. During the year we have enjoyed a Spelling Bee with Room 10 against Room 11, which resulted in a tie between the two rooms. Room 11 gave an Amateur Hour and invited Room 10. This was quite entertaining to us. We also played a basket- ball game between the boys and girls which, of course, was won by the boys, although the girls played a good game. Freshman boys played against the Juniors and the Seniors. The Freshman boys won both games, for which we are very proud. We have participated in several activities. Some of us have been members of the Junior High Chorus; some have had our first lessons in Journalism on the Junior Times; some of us have been members of the Dramatics Club; others have participated in the Orchestras and the Science Club. We have had several social parties which we have thoroughly enjoyed. Our Freshman year has been a pleasant one, and we are looking forward to the next three years with great anticipation. We are grateful to the Board of Education and to the members of the Faculty who have made it possible for us to experience such a pleasant and beneficial school year.

How many times during our school career did we repeat that ever popular phrase “just wait ’til we’re up there.” We’ve reached our goal. We can look back to kindergarten days of “abc’s,” blocks, crackers and milk, with a grin or a chuckle, for we’ll never see them again. It was not an unusual sight to see a new pupil added to our class each year and indeed he was welcome. It didn’t take him long to be part of the “gang.” Fun was what our class always loved—jokes, slang, and jitterbugging. All this has been in our generation and we have made the most of it. Oh, we know we ve been a little too extreme at times, but “kids will ba kids.” Remembering first grade is rather hard, but most unforgetable were the pictures Miss Northrup drew on the board. Each morning we clamored in they were the first items that caught our eye. The arithmetic in second grade; thrift club and half holidays in third, fourth, and fifth, were exciting to us. Little things happened during those banner snatch ng years that make us stop to reminisce. Maybe you remember how in sixth grade you worried about geography or spelling as we did. Now' our worries mount up to bigger things, and what we thought were troubles then become samples at present. Social Studies were introduced in seven'h grade which were a little complicated at first, but we soon overcame the difficulties and even soared through regents in eighth grade with flying colors. Some thought they wouldn’t be freshmen, but as you can see we’re still together. Our freshman year was the beginning of the stampede of non-resident students. Without them the class would be the smallest ever graduating. As early as this we wanted to start saving for the Washington Trip. Little did we know what would really happen about that trip. We coui .n't start saving money becau:e the juniors and seniors were having a tou,rh time of it as it wras. Every .lass has its troubles, nd we seem to have had a little more than our share, but we hope the class filling our shoes next year can overcome difficulties we found impossible. It wras fun being freshmen. The seniors looked down on us, and we looked down on the eighth graders. The studies were a cinch, then, of course. The students just went on arguing in Social and finding out who had their diagraming done for English. It seemed nobody liked to diagram. All at once we were practicing for graduation. Practice was walking in and out of the auditorium. No such word as “scared” entered our heads that morning, but in the approaching evening it was the main top ? to the whispering, shaking, and be- wildered fresh-sophs. The next day pictures were taken. Those pictures! How many of us hide them w'hen company comes. All in vain are our e.Torts to hide them from view, sad as they are! The sophomore hop was a gala a.Tair, the talk of the school. It was the first round and square dance and very successful. Everything we planned was to earn money for Washington. Our class had become a really unified class now that we were sophomores. The “Burgoyne Crier” be?an to notice us, and we started stepping into the scandal page where every pupil strains for a place. Some of us went to our first prom that year and were simply thrilled. Of course we looked simply devas- tating in our first long dresses. The sophomores were even invited to go with the seniors on the school picnic. This was supposed to be an honor. All h.:d a grand time, and, as every school picnic marks the end of another school year, that meant we were practically juniors. Now we really could “go to town” and make money for Washington. Candy sell- ing, dances, tags, and more dances were in our motto. Our Junior Prom was the most successful ever given. Say! Were we proud! (never realizing how much those bills at Falvey’s and Ben Franklin’s were), it was the first year Schuylerville H.gh School had a prom queen. We believe this inno ation will be carried on. At the end of the year we had over ninety dollars in the treasury and were looking forward to being seniors. From the first, choosing .ards, caps and gowns, and chaperones were our main interests. Food sales were held frequently. We started out with forty-eight in Washington Trip Club. Then we had to change the name of the club to New York because of the war. This we didn’t mind; and, as all will agree, the trip to New York wall always be remembered. Class night was abolished this year, but class day rose to its glory. Every senior had a class to teach. Regents, tests, and graduation day are yet to come. The future in this day and age holds unknown and undependable promises. So once again we look back at the old school, holding within its walls the memories of pleasant, humorous, and exciting happenings that have followed us through our first path of life, and at the crossroads we’ll do our best to choose a highway of happiness and success. 28 Helen Pleshko ’42 CLASS PROPHECY The corner at 125th and Ninth Street in New York seemed to be a little brighter than usual on this hot July night in 1949 as I stood on the corner waiting for the uptown bus. Although I had been living in New York for nearly a year, it gave me a queer feeling when I heard the weird wail of the air raid siren and saw the lights begin to blink out one by one. Luckily, I stood near one of the many shelters, and, as I hurried down the flight of stairs into the dimly lighted interior, my arm was nearly yanked from the socket as I was pulled over to one side by a big muscular fellow, who looked more like Joe Louis in the dim light than little Leo Kelly, the Star reporter of the “Daily Times.” After the astonishment of our meeting had worn off, we began to talk of old times, and our chatter soon wandered around to our fellow graduates of S. H. S. I knew that Leo did a great deal of traveling in connection with his work, and so, I asked him if he had seen any of our classmates lately. “Oh! almost all of them,” he replied. “Just last week I was sent to California to cover a story, and the first person I met as 1 boarded the plane was the pretty air hostess, Helen Pleshko, who informed me the ship 1 was taking was to be piloted by no other person than Charles Boivin, the famous transcontinental pilot. And who should be taking the trip with me but the millionaire playboy, Loren Salley? Loren told me that he was going to Hollywood to hear one of his favorite orchestras, led by Johnny Bodnar. Loren also said that Ed Ellis was doing fine as a motion picture director, and that he was now directing the picture entitled “Don’t Take Any Wooden Nickles.” This story was written by Betty Peets, and the leading parts were taken by Margaret Williams and Earl Sanders. As I left the plane, who should meet me but IJlaine Lang, a very prominent hotel manager! We were driven to her hotel by her chauffeur, Douglas Powers, and as we left the car we were met at the hotel entrance by the doorman, Leonard Nacy. The clerk, Miss Mary Hathaway, told me that the meals in the hotel were very fine because they were being planned by Eleanor Booth, a very well known dietician. A very snappy elevator boy, James Parillo, took me up to my room, and on my way up I glanced at the front page of the paper, and there was the picture of a bomber crew who had just shot down their fifteenth Jap plane. The first time I looked I couldn’t believe it, but it was true. That crew was made up of some of my classmates. The pilot was Thomas Smith; the bomber was Bill Boyce; and the gunners were Bill Hewitt and Keith Towns. Yes, the whole crew were students from S. H. S., and even the machinist, was no other than Robert Pratt. One surprise in the paper was enough, but as I turned to the back page a big “Ad” caught my eye. It read as follows: “If you want the best undertaker in town, you want Dallas LaVoy, and his assistant, Thelma Mathis.” While we were at lunch, LaVoy had an attack of appendicitis and was rushed to the hospital by a very reckless ambulance driver, and as I left the ambulance I saw the driver was George Hathaway. We rushed Dallas to the operating room, and there I met the doctor, Fred VanderPoel, and his assistant, Leo Willette. Fred had become quite an expert surgeon out there on the west coast. No wonder, he had four very competent nurses: June Launder, Leona White, Marie Cormie, and Marie Nevins. I left Mr. LaVoy in their charge, and as I left I felt sure that he would be well cared for. I left the hospital and went to the Lockhead Aircraft Plant where I covered the story I was to get on this plant. During my tour of the factory grounds, I saw Leo Nadeau and Napoleon Irish who were two of the best electrical welders that they had. As I left the plant I was hailed by two very tough men, James Haley and Fred Boyce, who were working for the company as private detectives. That night I took the train for New York and was greatly surprised to have my ticket taken by John Sails who had a job as conductor. I had a very comfortable trip and stopped at the small city to spend the day. I learned from John Sullivan, the mayor of the village, that Charles Martin was coaching the high school’s cham- pion baseball team, while Betty Phillips was doing very good teaching the scholars there to speak French. I ate lunch with the mayor in a very nice diner, run by Helen Hathaway and Dot Toleman, who had gone into partnership. As I left the 29 diner I glanced in at the city’s best beauty parlor, and there I saw Betty Hunt and Carmella Falsone who were both doing very well as hairdressers. My train left that night, but I heard before going that Ethel Coffin was a very happy housewife who lived in the suburbs of the city. I arrived in New York the next morning. That just about concludes my information about the Class of ’42. Do you know what Bill Rogers is doing now? “Yes, I do, Leo. I got a letter yesterday from Doris Sherman who is a teacher at Albany Business College. She told me that she saw Bill Rogers in Montgomery Wards buying a new tractor for his farm. Marie Hutchinson is doing very well as a bookkeeper at Wards, while Irene Pratt designs many of the dresses for the company. It seems that Juanita Ketchum and Elsie Coffin have set up in business, running a dancing school for bashful men. Elsie and Juanita take care of the dancing end of it, and have Tressa Osterhoudt to run the financial part of the school. I heard that some of the customers go to see the local Red Cross nurses, Shirley Pett and Edith Loomis, after they have had a few lessons at the school. Can it be the girls tire the boys out, or do they need a few lessons themselves? Doris told me chat Harry Morrill and John Keeley are doing fine in the night club business that they have started up. She closed her letter by telling me that Marjorie Yandell, Millie Quinn, and Josie Arsenault are all working at defense jobs.” Just as I finished telling Leo about this letter, the all clear signal blew, or at least, I thought it was the all clear signal, but I knew that I was mistaken when I heard my mother calling, “Hurry up and get up, Chauncey, or you will be late for school.” So ended my dream about the future of the Class of ’42. Chauncey DeGarmo THE CLASS WILL We, the class of nineteen hundred and forty-two, do hereby ordain, establish and present this document as our last will and testament before departing from SchuylerviUe High School. In doing so we leave our much coveted virtues to our followers. To the Junior Class we leave Room 12 where many home room meetings and parties were enjoyed. To the Sophomore Class we leave our good sportsmanship. To the Freshman Class we leave some of the common sense that we have gained through four years of high school. Now to these loyal classmen we leave some of the abilities of the noble seniors. Starting with the Juniors, we leave these abilities which we hope will benefit them. First of all, to Marion Toleman we leave the pigtails of Eleanor Booth. We think Paul Coffinger could use the wittiness of Fred Boyce. Phelena Wood is presented with Ethel Coffin’s engagement ring. We think Jeanette Baine might like a little of Elsie Coffin’s cheerleading ability while Carmella DeMarco might like to use some of Helen Pleshko’s flirtations. We know Theresa LaFountain would like Doris Sher- man’s shorthand ability while Mona Gravelle might like Shirley Pett’s pretty blond 30 tresses. Jack VanDerwerker might like John Sullivan’s typing ability. We looked in vain for someone to use the eyes of Leo Willette so to the Junior who might like them, they are our gift to you. To Donald Forbes we leave Edward Ellis’ likeness for study. Iva French would like some of Carmella Falsone’s giggles. Jimmy Ha- ley’s dependability is left to Bob Wilson. George Hathaway’s dancing feet are left to any Junior who might like them. Betty Phillips’ willingness to help in class ac- tivities is left to Thelma Cormie; Bill Rogers’ trips to Quaker Springs to Mac Sails; Marie Hutchinson’s seriousness is left to Marie Blodgett; Betty Peets’ position in the ten cent store is left to Muriel Germain; Jack Sails' bowling ability is bequeathed to any young hopeful who would like it. Tom Smith’s ruby studded belt is given to Bob Galusha, while Tressa Osterhoudt’s dancing feet are left to June Boyce. Mar- garet Williams’ chemistry ability is passed on to Ann Callahan with hope that she may be able to use it. Charles Martin’s ability to argue in history class is be- queathed to Bill Harris. Leo Nadeau leaves his broom and dustpan to his brother Don. June Launder’s dimples are left to Jackie Drew, while Charles Boivin thinks Joe Corsetti might like his position at the Oneida Store. Leona White’s position as Secretary of Senior Trip Club goes to the next secretary. Jack Keeley’s basketball ability goes to Tim O’Brien. Thelma Mathis’ pleasing personality is bequeathed to any Junior girl who lacks this valuable trait. Bill Boyce’s card playing tricks go to Rudy Greenwalt, while Marie Cormie’s musical talents are left to Theresa Everts. Jim Parillo’s ability to play piano chords is left to Kate Salley. Mary Hathaway’s romantic technique is left to Jean Pechette. Now we go to the Sophomores with hope that they may use these assets to their advantage. Helen Hathaway leaves a few of her boy-friends to Dorothy Rus- sell; Napoleon Irish’s manners are left to Arthur Holtman; Dallas LaVoy’s happy- go-lucky spirit is left to Ronald Hunt; Edith Loomis’ position on volleyball team is bestowed upon Betty Brewer, while Marie Nevins’ friendliness is left to Theresa DeGrechie. Dorothy Toleman’s ability to pass notes without getting caught is left to Winnie Brown. Fred VanderPoel’s gift of gab is left to Dick Townley. We think maybe John Martin could benefit by Earl Sanders’ quietness. Bill Hewittt’s neatness is given Joe Biss, while Leo Kelly’s height is bestowed upon John Nevins. Mildred Quinn’s sense of humor is left to Doris Bean. Next, to the Freshmen we leave the following: Josephine Arsenault’s French ability is left to Eileen Nevins; Elaine Lang’s cooking ability is left to Mary Alice Harris; John Bodnar’s ability to play the violin is left to Martin Munson; Chauncey DeGarmo’s position in the lab is left to his brother Herb. Juanita Ketchum s ath- letic ability is given to Ruth Willette; Irene Pratt’s attractive hair-do is left to Edith Hayes, while Loren Salley’s dancing talents go to Arthur Charron. Bob Pratt’s great technique at doing dishes is left to any Freshman who needs it; Mar- jorie Yandell’s sweet voice is left to Kathleen Drew. We dedicate this yearbook to Miss Lasher who has shown a keen interest in our work and has helped us through many hard problems during our four years of High School. We are all happy to graduate from Schuylerville High School as the time draws nearer, but our thoughts shall always be here.

We left Schuylerville at 8:00 with two of the grandest chaperons any class ever had, and we were beyond a doubt the most excited group of Seniors who ever invaded the Albany station. With our makeup repaired and our hopes high, we left on the 10:00 train for New York, and, oblivious of soot in our eyes and dirt on our hands, arrived in New York at 1:30 Monday afternoon. We were then transported to the Taft, one of the best hotels in the city, where we all made tracks for the shower and attempted “to make ourselves beautiful” for the next exciting event. The group then went in a group to the Vanderbilt theatre where we saw the Chesterfield broadcast, starring Fred Waring and his Pennsylvanians. After the broadcast we walked to the R.C.A. building where we were taken on a tour of the building and were televised. Then we were on our own in the big city. It was like seeing a green blade of grass in a brown field, but I dare say, most of us managed to find entertainment. Tuesday morning we met in the lobby where we were told that the sightseeing tour had been postponed, but we were given tickets to see the Rockettes in Radio City Music Hall. Our time was then free until Wednesday evening when we had dinner in the Rainbow Grill. Many of the students took their own small tours and journeyed to the Statue of Liberty where they viewed a breath taking scene of New York City. They were rather sea sick from the trip over and back. Our “Tempus” really did “figit,” and before we had a chance to realize it, it was Friday morning and once again we were packed and leaving. This time things were changed, however, and our trip was to end that morning with a grand sightseeing tour of the city. After that we arrived at Grand Central Station, a tired looking group of youngsters, and looked back at the city with a sob in our hearts. We thought “Will we ever come again and have such a grand time?” Well, time will tell. So we returned to Schuylerville, and, I must admit, the old town looked pretty good to our tired eyes, and I am sure that our class had the best time that any Schuylerville Senior class ever enjoyed.

In the Fall the members elected Elaine Lang, President; Edward Ellis, Vice President; Doris Sherman, Secretary; Marie Blodgett, Treasurer; and June Launder, Activity Chairman. To get things under way there was a banquet in November. Knitting blocks for the Red Cross afghan, keeping daily traffic going smoothly in the hall, ushering at the Operetta, and helping out in all activities called on were among the numerous projects the Club undertook. Dances, socials, and p cnics rounded out the social picture. All in all the 11)41-1942 program was eventful and successful. 42 ORCHESTRA 1.

Always shall the Alma Mater bring a tear to our eye, and the mention of the boys in Orange and Black, pride to our hearts. All the little things, the small accomplishments, and childhood pranks will loom before our horizon as we take our place in the outside world. In departing we wish to express our thanks to the faculty and wish our under classmen good luck in all they undertake. Leona White 49 Juniors Sophomores 52 Er£shmen 54
