Statistics Nineteen hundred and forty-five will always be remembered as the year the war ended peace followed and we, the great class of 1946, became lords and masters of Sheffield High School. (Listen to our tall tales.) Ira Markham — Bucky was our class heart-throb until Uncle Sam called him. Don ' t worry, girls, we have another one. Mildred Tatsapaugh — Mil is one of those telephone operators. Someday Mil will connect herself with a certain Sailor from East Canaan. Peter Malnati — Pete is our Valedictorian and brains. Pete has his heart set on going to Cornell — don ' t let the lassies keep you from your homework, Pete Dorothy Orcutt — Dot ' s ability in commercial work will get her far. Watch out for the business men, Dot. Arthur Coons — Art, the company enjoyed by all. He is very well liked and manages to make use of his Art in teasing. Your fields are broad, Artie, make use of them. Natalie Hall — Nat is our class baby-tender. She gets the pay for watching the small fry, but we hear the small fry take their turn in watching. Peter Pshenishny — Pete is our other class heart-throb. Prettysoon UncleSamwill have you too, Pete. What will the girls do then? Especially the blonde from East Canaan? Elaine Samuels — Elaine is building up hopes of living in a trailer and someday going out west to buy a ranch. Hope you succeed, Elaine. Anne Pshenishny — Anne ' s big blue eyes and blonde hair will get her to New York — or any where for that matter. Jean Armstrong — Jean, beware of those boys. After all, you want to go to college, don ' t you? Betty Geer — Betty is planning on going to Business School. Will you still go if a certain Sailor comes home? Erma Funk — Erma strove during her high school years to get a good foundation for nursing. Now she is all set and we ' ll soon have another Florence Nightingale. Helen Shmulsky — Helen wants to travel and we know she will. She ' s planning to go to Boston but we hear her destination is Denver. Cece Small — Cece is our other Florence Nightingale. Watch the internes at St, Francis, Cece. Margie Curtiss — Margie is the smallest by far but don ' t judge by size. Her road is long and narrow but she manages to get around — the west coast is her limit. Hattie Pixley — Hattie is an all ' round girl who belongs to the whole class. Hattie manages her affairs without difficulty and though some hurdles be high, she will do her best to clear them. Ann Small — Ann is a timid type of girl but did well through these past four years. But behind the switch board with plenty of numbers, she ' ll make a strike. Sophia Shmulsky — Sophia spends her spare time in playing cards and window gazing at the boys ' baseball games. Sheffield has much in store when Sophia returns as their Physical Education teacher.
