QQZJZWCW GNE HUNDRED years ago the Forty- niners sot forth to find gold in the hills of California. Not everyone found this gold, for all Were not of hard- ened caliber, but all work-ed hard. Some who Went found gold-perhaps not in the nugget form, but as life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, as a feel- ing of completeness in doing their Work, as belief in God. As they Worked and sweated and toiled in their search for treasure, so must We in our explorations of life work hard, in order to fulfill the brave example set by those Forty-niners Whose name We bear. f1 Z' .Lr- Zg' X ,- N? l' , lo. t - X sii5::fr ' ,xYf: I X915 xb.X X ggfx N 1 , s' f . y rl flint' I W. it I N -f J 9 fv O Q get J, t :o,'2s2 am -' s0.?l A as igblllfll Southside High School is this spring celebrating its 25th birthday. A quarter of a century-a generation of human life- has seen this institution, not grow old, but mellow as it has come of age. At its birth, Southside embodied the newest and best of everything that a progressive Iunior-Senior high school should present to its community. Under the inspired guidance of Mr. Frank Edson and the consecrated devotion of a chosen band of teachers, it offered a six-year plan of study embracing preparation for every phase of life. The Elmira Free Academy was relieved of its commercial and homemaking courses to become strictly academic in its program-Southside was equipped to offer the best in vocational work in every line. Particular stress was placed upon high ideals of conduct to reflect the pride of everyone con- nected with the school. lf at first there were some minus qualities-no front sidewalk, no flagpole, no shrubbery, no gray-haired teachers, no seats in the auditorium, faulty ventilation, and backfiring stoves in the Home Ec. kitchens-those purely material things were not important. Emphasis was on the future-upon those young humans who were being trained for the years to come. Five and twenty years have seen nearly 5,UOU graduates pass through Southside's doors, most of them to become the solid citizenry of Elrnira's Southside and the parents of the present-day students, many to become prominently identified with the city of Elmira as a whole, some to achieve wider fame, a noble number to serve their country in World War ll, with forty-three giving their lives for their country. From forty-eight in number the faculty has grown to seventy- three. Fifteen of the original staff are marking this year as ct silver anniversary of their service to Southside. They are the tried and true teachers that the old grads think of with affection, or with humorous or rueful remembrance of past encounters in class or study hall. Southside means Mr. McNaught, Mrs. Adams, Miss Brookfield, Miss Callahan, Miss Cole, Miss Grube, Miss Haupt, Mr. Hunt, Miss LaBurt, Mr. Lantz, Miss Lucy, Mr. Maynard, Mr. Parsons, Miss Smith, Mr. Tinney, and Miss Hoffman in the office. With the advent of second semester of this year Mr. Maynard announced his retirement from teaching. Iolly Pop Maynard leaves many happy memories for Southsiders. How his homeroom boys loved that spring picnic! lt seems fitting here to pay tribute to the late Henry I. Prechtl, who completed twenty-two years as a member of the Social Studies De iartment shortly before his death on April Z, 1947. Before his fatal illness, Mr. Prechtl was one of the most popular teachers . L! tl li 1 1 it li 4f'9i.h, 9 sb? .22 ' l'X.l.. at Southside. He coached and refereed interclass basketball and was instrumental in introducing wrestling as a school sport. His genial humor and kindly interest in each student endeared him to all who knew him. This young school has already lived through a boom, a depression, and a world war. Changes have been inevitable. Growth in school population having made the use of Parley Coburn necessary for overflow classes for years, Southside became a senior high school only, in September, 1937. Until the remodeling of the Academy in 1939 to include facilities for vocational, com- mercial, and homemaking training, S,H.S. attracted students from all over the city in these courses. With each succeeding year Southside has become more independent and more mature until it faces its older sister school as a friendly rival in many fields, especially sports. Once the two schools met out-of-town competition with one Elmira High Schools' team. The Green and White has stood for a strong and separate football team since 1947, a basketball quintet since 1945-5, a baseball nine since the spring of 1946, a track team since the spring of 1948, and a varsity wrestling squad as of the 1948-9 season. Boxing, bowling, an electric scoreboard, bleachers in the gym, and more coaches-all are signs of the times, The E1-So-Hi, the Edsonian, the Student Council, the Ushers' Club were born early in Southside's life. They represent the school while they serve it. Many other organizations have had their place as the need arose, and given way to the ever-changing pattern made by 1100 restless young people in any one year. One thing is sure-Southside's activities are democratic in the fullest sense of the word. The Protestant, the Iew, the Catholic, the Negro and the white, the native son and the foreign born- all work and play together, with each taking his turn at high office, honor award, or sovereignty of the carnival. The shrubbery has grown up and embraced the pale brick walls, classrooms glow with color like gardens in summer, the guidance and the health rooms overflow with personnel to offer the student trained service on personal problems, Mike George has a second-floor suite in the Practice House as GHQ for Physical Education, Seniors can elect to take Driving at 8 a.m. and Drama in place of English 4, Visual aids tmoviesl are creeping in through Related Subjects, the Honor Society has budded, the Class of '48 captured five scholarships in the county-wide competition, the best of the school's intramural organizations go on forever, but too1ay's students are too busy to be bothered with the others. Southside faces the next twenty-five years. Long may she live! W Wlhiwdf OR a full quarter of a century has Clifford F. McNaught been a part of South- side-nine years as Vocational Director of the department which then included both shop and home economics, and the last sixteen years as our respected principal. He has loomed as formidable to the quak- ing culprit summoned to the office as ever did the Rockies to an ill-equipped Forty-niner of a century ago. l-le has beamed With pride at the accomplishments of the diligent and deserving, whether the reward was the glittering nugget of a trophy for the school or the precious gem of a scholarship stipend for the student. They have been good years-for South- side, for Mr. McNaught, and for those who have passed through its doors as teachers and pupils, The democratic attitude, the friendly spirit, the fair meting of justice--all represent Mr. Mc- Naught and Southside under his capable and steadfast jurisdiction.

Since that is not possible, how- ever, my thoughts and best Wishes will be with you always. We had a wonder- ful time together-come back often, and let's live again those happy, hectic days of the Class of '49. 1 Sincerely, Myfanwy King l8l Jig EXW 0 The Class of '49 considers itself lucky to be under the leadership of Miss King and Mrs. Rodgers. Because of their tireless efforts, we have enjoyed success and many good times. Friendly, poetic, cheerful-that's Miss King. A first-class dramatic coach, an excellent Worker, a friend at all times-Miss King has been for our class just what the doctor ordered. Who will ever forget the good times we had and the little Worries We caused her While rehearsing our skits and as- semblies? She has our hearty thanks and our best wishes always. More than advisor, our Mrs. Rodgers has been a kind and helpful friend to us Seniors since that fateful day in September, 1947, when she and Miss King, to our good fortune, agreed to guide us. Her ideas have always in- spired usg her spirit has always encouraged us, memories of her will always remain with us. Hats off to Mrs. Rodgers-may she always have the happi- ness she deserves. A MRS. GEORGE R. Roncsss Dear Seniors: Our todays here at Southside have been pleasant, profitable-yes, at times, perfect. My wish is that some of our shared experiences will be of value in making all of our tomorrows even better. Cordially, lean B.

WOOD, MARY FRANCES M. 3,1 32 f 51 n 9 sl 4 esfwzw 099. ln September, 1945, a multitude of eager, restless Forty-niners seeking fortune and adventure left the sheltering arms of home and the pleasures of childhood to start the weary trail which would lead them to the treasures of life. They persuaded Sister Margaret Biggs to accompany them for the inspiration of their spirits and Brother Ben Botnik to crack the Whip when the caravan bogged down. Driving the lead wagon was a good-looking fellow by the name of Ruggles, who later used this pioneering experience to triumph over adversaries in sports. The wagon train, moving very slowly at first, gathered momentum as it progressed. As the Forty-niners rolled along over hills and through the vales, they gradually gained recognition. While passing through a major valley, they were asked to inscribe their names in gold at a Senior Carnival. Upon passing this milestone, they found that the first lap of their weary but re- warding journey had been completed. Taking to the road once more, the driver of the lead wagon waschanged to Bob Butler. Since Brother Ben had been forced to leave the train because of other pressing duties, Brother Les Stottle was invited to join the caravan to share the problems of Sister Margaret. When Thanksgiving drew near, they decided to celebrate at a Gobble Wobble Hop. Time passed quickly for the caravan as it rolled merrily along. Since Easter was fast approaching and they were nearing the end of the second lap of the journey, the Forty-niners held a gala Bunny Hug. Following this they pitched camp in order to rest after their travels. The Forty-niners suffered many hardships as their journey progressed- one being the loss of their two companions, Sister Biggs and Brother Stottle. At the beginning of the journeys third section they asked Sisters lean Barber and Myfanwy King to accompany them. Armin Loeb, a cheerful, helpful young man, became the third lead driver of the wagon train. When autumn once more approached, the Harvest Moon Ball was planned to break the mo- notony of the long, hard journey. Then they continued their trek until they came upon a carnival, where they found pink cotton candy on a stick very en- joyable, and profitable, too. Going on their way the pioneers realized that their own young men were becoming victorious in sports. To honor their basketball players they held the Basket Ball. By this time Christmas had come and gone. Since there were many good actors and actresses in their caravan, they presented a drama, What a Lifel, describing their experiences as Forty-niners. Then the lrishmen in the train thought and thought of a way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Finally they decided to have a big hoedown, calling it the Shamrock Shuttle. After this brief diversion the train rolled smoothly along until it carne to a large fort on the trail. The inhabitants of the fort greeted them eagerly, for an afternoon's program of fun was promised. The evening brought forth a King and Queen of May-lake Fredericks and lean Vail. The third quarter of the journey thus came to a triumphant close, and a much-needed rest followed. After having taken a short rest, the travelers, with renewed spirits, took to the road to begin the last stage of their journey. Once more Brother Armin was driving the lead wagon. As the leaves began to tall, they stopped to dance The Autumn Whirl. They were traveling faster now, for the end of the trip was nearly in view. The Forty-niners, discovering some new acting talent, gave My Sister Eileen, showing the difficulties of two lone young women on the trail of life. Approaching hard tasks of the road, they danced away their tears at the litters Iamboree. These passed, they celebrated at their own Carnival, which proved a huge success with several neighboring trains drop- ping in to visit them. They maintained a steady progress over the last mountains on the trail and finally, with their objective just ahead, they sat down to a grand repast, after which they danced far into the night, little knowing or caring that they would go down in history as the Forty-niners. -I.

M BY NORMA BOWMAN AND DONALD Esrsp Six men were seated around the table in Happy Hall's Poker Palace. The pile of chips was diminishing rapidly in front of old Doc Hausman, once a well-to-do practitioner in the East before coming west in '49. The air was blue and reeking as Blackie DeVore shuffled the cards. Blackie, a smoothie who worked in the Palace, carefully dealt, first one from the top, then one from the bottom. Old Doc muffled a smile and drew one card. Blackie feigned surprise and looked crestfallen. Clipper Cooper offered Blackie a word of advice and moved over behind Doc. I'll raise these, said Doc, shoving in his remaining chips. I'm through, muttered limmie the Kid as he shoved back his chair. That cleans me, said Frio Frampton quietly. Pass, murmured Iipper lake Fredericks, Doc's one true friend. For a moment all were silent. They didn't seem to hear the lusty voice of Dilly Denton soaring above the whang of Melody Brown's guitar. The girls liked to relax after waiting on the customers. Blackie said, l'll call. . Beat these two pair, Doc boasted. I can, laughed Blackie, laying down three aces. You cheat! yelled the white-faced Doc. I threw away that ace of hearts. With those words he Went for his gun. Blackie's hand was swifter. One shot rang out. The smell of gun smoke mingled with the thud of a bullet on flesh, as old Doc fell across the table. At this moment Sheriff Olson pushed his way through the swinging doors, his hand lingering on his gun butt. Close behind stood his deputy, Two-Gun Bennett. Why did you kill him? demanded Olson. He called me a cheat and went for his gun, explained Blackie. It was him or me. Big Iohn Havens, the barkeeper, added his Word and Blackie went free. Wal, I suppose somebody's got to tell Maggie, Two-Gun surmised. Maggie was Doc's little gal. Yep, I 'spose. Guess it's my job, Olson admitted as he went outside. The night was clear and warm as Olson rode down the dusty street of Wagon Wheel. He rode past the hotel Where Handsome Hamer was dozing behind the desk, past Elmer Martin's general store, past the livery stable of Hobbies Clark, and finally left behind the last building, which housed the Wagon Wheel Iournal run by Words Kennedy. He soon passed the small ranch where Silent Ed Bush tended a few cows. At last he came to the little cabin where Doc's gal Maggie lived. He rapped on the door and twisted his haf in his hands. Howdy, ma'am, he said as she opened the door. Mae cfs' Jfs wfz mam' Hello, Dick, she said. Come in and sit a spell. I don't know how to say this, he said as she looked at him, but, well-ah-Doc was in a fight at Happy Hall's and- Maggie took the news like a lady. Seating herself, she said, Dick, I need your help. Duke VanNess and Doc had a quarrel and now the deed to our mine is missing. I'm afraid some those outlaws that Duke hires have a-hold of it. Now, Miss Maggie, don't you fret, Dick quieted her. I'll get right back and go to work on it. Duke got Wind that the sheriff was out to get him. He decided to trap the sheriff into a shooting duel and be rid of hirn. However, Duke's gal friend, Kate Piontek, green-eyed with jealousy because Duke had been sing- ing lately of Ieanie with the light brown hair, found a way to have a quiet talk with Sheriff Olson before taking the night train to 'Frisco. Duke gathered his men in the back room and began to explain to them. Shorty Butler sat in a corner sharpening a wicked-looking knife. Muscles Lantz pulled his gun from its holster and gave the cylinder a twirl. Blackie sat on a box looking mighty glurn. Rich Fudge, often called the Candy Kid, took a bite out of a plug which Chewie Culver had just passed him. This is the way it's goin' ta be, said Duke. Shorty'll be behind the stair post. Muscles, cover the back doorg Candy and Chewer on the balcony. Blackie stay with me. Olson and his posse are advancing on Happy Hall's. Olson called, Come out, ye varmints, I got the goods on ya, Duke. Yer all through. Like h-! If you want me, come an' get me, yelled the crazed Duke. All right, boys, said Olson. Let's clean 'em out. With that the firing broke out. Lead flew thick and fast. Both sides were hit hard before Duke finally called quits. Several of the town's more reliable citizens were all for lynching the villains. Roving lim Wheeler, Eagle Eye Oppenheirn, and Lippy Louie were in favor of a ballet dance on air. However, the lynching movement was stopped by that eloquent elocutionist and remittance man, the Right Honor- able Robert I. Lamb, and the sermonizing of Rarnblin' Russ Finch, the circuit preacher. Sheriff Olson personally returned the deed to Maggie. Oh, Dick, Maggie said. I don't know what l'd a-done without you. I wish I could repay you in some way. Wal, Ma'am, maybe you kin, said Dick. l'd be powerful happy iffen you'd go to the square dance with me Sattiday night. 37 YEAR BOOK EDITORS Front Rowe-vlean Sullivan, Kathryn Piontek, leannine Chamberlain, Lois Troy Second Row-Ioseph Hogg, Robert Oppenheim, Bryan l-loolihan, Charles Hamer Offfmmy gjfffzjff 7 tfrary Shi!!-Gordon Bennett, Norma Bowman, Ron- alfl Esttp, Ioyce Herlorth, lacqueline Lovell, Robert Lamb, lean Tittirs, Iarnes Wheeler, Annice Winters isftmfs- Betty Bennett, Marguerite Bloom, Phyllis Frank Shirley Hughes, Zondra Force, Ruth I Kendall, Elizabeth Partridge, Golda Reed, Dorothy Stickler, Betty Smith, Margaret Goble, and Doris: Curren.

It was organized as school service club in the year l927-1928 by Mrs. Austin, who has been advisor continuously through the twenty-one years. The membership includes Senior girls only. The Ushers' Club has three main objectives. The first is school service. The girls serve as ushers and hostesses or guides for school functions, and maintain a hostess table in the main corridor every period of each school day. They have ushered at many affairs in the city such as Community Lecture courses. Symphony concerts, Civic Chorus Concerts, Children's Theater, Community Thanksgiving service at the Keeney Theater, etc. The U. K. girls maintained a telephone switchboard at Parley Coburn when it was necessary to have some high school classes there. During depression years the Club secured clothing and books for special cases, especially party clothes for those unable to have themg and at Christmas and Thanks- giving, has provided food and toys for some special families. During the war years, Ushers' Club members served as air raid wardens, assisted with air raid drills, collected materials t3 truck loadst for hospital slippers, and were in charge of the entire country scrap key collection for war metals t2,0UO lbs. keys collectedh. ln addition the Club sent El-So-Hi and Yearbook copies to former students who were in the Service. The second objective is to give members training in courtesy, poise, self-control in meeting emerg- enciesg to foster tolerance, fairness, responsibility, and to learn how to be a desirable Club member. The third objective is to have social affairs with interesting programs, without having expensive functions, and without incurring large indebtedness. These affairs have included tea dances fvery popular for several yearsl, picnic suppers, with all kinds of demonsfrations and discussions, special assemblies, etc. After the first year or two, the Club adopted a uniform to be worn when on duty. This was a tailored cotton coat, of either blue or dark red color with contrasting trim. These uniforms were worn each year until war scarcities forced the Club to discontinue them. Members may join in May of lunior year in order to serve as ushers at Senior Day and Commence- ment that vear. These are provisional members. ln September each year, the Club is re-organized and includes all Senior girls who wish to join. The club has become well known in this community and even outside Elmira. The E. F. A. club was modeled from S. H. S. club. Ithaca organized a club after the school superintendent visited Southside High School and saw Upsilon Kappa in action. 59 601 efeyer QW! Row l' V. Hover, D. Cole, H. Olson, 1. Doebler, N. Rice, I.

Gay ballads, sad, haunting melodies, and rollicking tunes such as O Susanna and 'lClementine, accompanied them on the trail, providing relaxation and entertainment for many. We, too, as today's Forty-niners have found much of our relaxation, entertainment, and inspiration in these some pursuits. For many years it was the desire ol the students in Southside to boast a band of its own. This tall that dream was fulfilled with the organization ot the Southside High School Band under the capable leadership ot Mr. William E. Biery. It has shown remark- able qualities as a nucleus tor future years ol top-notch band performance, as it has already proven its merit in several of our school programs. This year Miss Connor has had an exceptionally large music department- her pride and joy being the ct Capella Choir, a group composed mostly ol Seniors who have had three or tour years of training behind them, The choir has given several excellent rcrlormances both in school and out. They were specially well received at a banque: of the iieal Estate Brokers' Association ol this city, The Seventh Period Choir, Girls' Glee Club, Boys' Glee Club, and a Capella Choir joined lorces in the Christmas Assembly. The highlight ol this program was the delightful Alleluia rendered by the Girls' Glee Club balcony chorus.

U 33 South::ide's Hornets got oft to a slow start by losing their first three games. How- ever, a tio with Union-Endicott was the only blemish on the tive remaining games and the season was termed a success. For the second time in as many years, Southside has captured the Ruddick Memorial Trophy by defeating Elmira Free Academy tor the city championship. Since most ol the lettermen are leaving school, prospects tor the future are not too bright, but with the capable coaching stall, new material will be moulded into an equally successful team. Bob Clark was named tullback ot the year when he won halt-interest in the Glenn Sherwood Memorial Trophy. He was voted by Academy players the most valuable player on the Southside High School team, while Southside named Tryon ol Elmira Tree Academy. At the close ol the season, the members ot the Southside High School team were the guests ot the Lettermens Club at a dinner at the Mark Twain Hotel, with Andy Cohen guest speaker. The Varsity lettermen also shared the spotlight with the big wheels lrom E. E. A. when they were ieted by Mr. Edward O'Neill, president ol the American Lalf'rance Foamite. 22107224 CZQJKJZ?

No one could deny that the boys looked much better as they edged by Binghamton Central bv one point. The following game was also close as the Hornets lost to Thomas A. Edison by only one point, The next fireworks held off until the Southsiders inet Vestal, whom they proceeded to trounce 59-33. Binghamton North and Iohnson City came here looking for easy victories, When the air cleared, although Soushside had been beaten, the out-of-town boys had had to fight hard all the way and Southside was not far behind. Special mention should go to Beckwith, Fredericks, and Smith, who played real basketball most oi the time However, we must not forget the other boys who were in there fighting all the tiiiio There were many times when they showed they had a lot of what it takes. mszfy fgasieffaf LETTERMEN Robert Beckwith, Captain lack Fredericks Paul Smith Dave Pierson Charles Maston Lester Gilbert lDeVVitt Cooper lohn Northrup Gene Costello, Man aqer FRED SINIONILT Coach JG! lffSfzsf4e1'!aM LETTERMEN Gordon Ohstrom DeGrove Padgett Louis Graham Ierry Hothwell Wilson Chapman, Captain Anthony Weaver George Holden Dan Manning William Hill Roger Slocum lack Siskin Iames Feldman William Parsons Eugene Murphy Robert Weiskopf, Manager Ausrm THOMAS Coach X First Round Second Hound SHS - 44-Horseheads - 36 SHS -Bingo Cen. - 42 SHS - I9-Bingo Cen. - 30 SHS -Thomas Edison - 34 SHS - 34-Academy - 32 SHS -Academy - 31 SHS - 37-Cortland - 32 SHS -Cortland - 31 SHS - 19-Vestal - 50 SHS -Vestal - 39 SHS - 4l-Endicott - 45 SHS Endicott - 49 SHS - 4l-Bingo North - 62 SHS Bingo North - 52 SHS - 18-Ithaca - 40 SHS Ithaca - 47 SHS - l9-Iohnson C. - 38 SHS Iohnson C. - 51 The TV. team turned in a very good record for the season winning eight of their eighteen games.

Under the leadership ot coach Bob Habersaat, the Green and White squad maintained the baseball reputation which had been built up by teams ol previous years. Against the Academy, our traditional cross-town rival, Southside won one of two games by a score ot l3fA9, and lost the other by a narrow 3-2 margin. Some of the tea1'n's outstanding individual performers were: Bob Beckwith, heavy-hitting outfielder, Roy Farr, third base, rated one ol the leagues best intielders, and the brother battery oi Ed and Bill Rothwell-Bill, ace pitcher, and Ed, captain of the team, catcher.

W. MooN MuLLiNs Coach In 1948 Southside had its own track team tor the first time. Under the capable guidance of Coach Francis Moon Mullins, Southside completed a very successful season. While the combined EHS track team of the previous year finished fourth in the sectional meets, Southside's own team finished third in '48. Outstanding individual performers on the team included: Bill Nagle, consistent winner in the mile, Chuck Maston, sectional champ in the quarter mile, and Don Barneski, sensational disc and shot-put star, These and other Southside boys brought honor to the school and helped make track a popular sport in its initial year at Southside. Southside started the season by finishing sixth in the Binghamton Relays with ten other Southern Tier schools competing. In this meet, Maston, Adair, Pierson, and Nagle set a new record in the two-mile relay. Southside then finished second in a triangular meet with Ithaca and the Academy. In a quadrangular meet with Iohnson City, Union Endicott, and the Academy, Southside finished thirdg and in the first intracity track meet, Southside downed the Academy 59 to 44. Then Southside finished third in a quadrangular meet at Binghamton with North, Central, and the Academy. In the Geneva relay carnival Southside finished second in a field of ten, and Southside again finished second in the Western Zone Track Meet at Cornell's Schoelkopf Field. In the sectionals at Cornell, Southside finished third behind Binghamton Central and Union Endicott. Southsiders Maston, Barneski, and Nagle helped Section IV finish second in the intersectional meet at West Point. 73 I74 Czlfesffmy The l948-49 season was a disastrous one for the Southside High School wrestling team, since the Green and White grapplers failed to win any of their six dual meets. The SHS squad was matched with several schools far more experienced in wrestling than was Southside, where varsity wrestling was only in its second year. However, under the able guidance of coach Francis Shepherd, many of the boys developed into top flight matmen, and none of the opposing schools found our team an easy one to beat. The most exciting meet of the year was the one with our arch-rival, the Academy, in which the Northsiders edged us out by a narrow 24-22 margin. By the end of the season the squad had improved so greatly that it tied for fourth place in the sectional tournament. Captain Dick Dean, one of the most consistent winners, lost in the finals to former champion Frank Bettuci of Ithaca. Little Bill Brimmer was the only Southsider to win a section championship.

Bill VanNess and Vivian Gustin, with the assistance of Mr. Habersaat and Miss Cleveland, organized both a boys' and girls' league. Both of these leagues are sanctioned by the American lunior Bowling Congress of Chicago. The boys' league consists of four teams that bowl every Monday night from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Remington Rand Alleys. At the end of the season the five boys with the highest averages will receive medals. In the lead at the present time for these medals are: Bill VanNess, Norm Comfort, Don VanNess, Richard Davis, Gordon Ohstrom. The team which ends up in first place will go to Binghamton to bowl in the Sectionals. The officers of the boys' league are: Bill VanNess, Presidentg Norm Comfort, Secretary: and Larry Comfort, Treasurer. The girls' league consists also of four teams that bowl every Tuesday night from 4 to 6 p.m. at the same alleys. At the end of the season the five girls with the highest averages will also receive medals. The five now leading for these medals are: Betty Smith, Vivian Gustin, Rose Mary Wright, Ioyce Redner, and Clara Marvin. The offiicers for the girls' league are: Shirley Burt, President, Vivian Gustin, Secretaryg Rose Mary Wright, Assistant Secretaryg and Betty Smith, Treasurer. So far great enthusiasm has been shown for this sport in Southside, and it is hoped that bigger and better things will come of it next year. There is hope that there will be competition games between Southside and the Academy. Cjflllldfflllldf The girls danced their way into gym class in September and learned the art of square dancing, plus a few rhythmic polka steps. Then, when it was time for volleyball, the sport was made interesting through the efforts of Miss Cleveland and Miss Ritter. Inter-class competition was formed and the Sophomores triumphed over all to cop the title as champions. Winter months always bring the well-liked basketball, and under Miss Cleveland's and Miss Ritter's careful instructions the girls improved. There was inter- school as well as inter-class competition. Battling with E.F.A., the Frosh and Seniors lost their games to the rivals across the river. The Iuniors meanwhile split with E.F.A. In Inter-class competition the Iuniors shot their way to the championship. An extensive course of tumbling was introduced this winter and was enjoyed by many. This spring plans were made for inter-class games in softball. All this time the boys have been having a variety too-anything from football to push-ups. This winter they had a few exciting volley ball games, too. The homerooms as usual participated in basketball, with Home Room 212 the champions. As a result, Home Room 212 was selected to play the Well-known faculty team, Mullins Maulersf' This great team swamped Home Room 212 with a score of 38-25. Of course such a well-coached outfit could hardly be beaten by mere high school boys. For Home Room 212, Bob Lantz and Ed McLaughlin, the high scorers, led the attack, assisted ably by Iohn Havens, Connie Hausman, and Bob Lamb. Playing Coach Mullins was temporarily indisposed and the Maulers were weakened by the ab- sence of curly-headed Moon. We certainly must not forget the beautiful physique of Mike George, plus the wonderful condition of Bob Habersaat, star of the game. Others that helped take the team to victory were the oustanding girl players, Iudy Ritter and Margaret Cleveland. The following dead shots completed the phenomenal team: Fred Simonet, Austin Thomas, Harold Schwalb, Sam Myers, and last but not least, Tony Peckally. We hope to see this great team in action again sometime. 75 POOSH! r . ,V SKY SCRAPERS THE SNAKE PIT BEAUTY-BRAINS-BRAWN' TIIWBER! 1 1 SMILE. PLEASE! HUG ME TIGHT f: ' 1 mssmo WANT A RIDE?
