HISTORY How time flies! Just four short years ago and we were green freshmen trying to get accus- tomed to the new world of high school, under the guidance of Mr. Sharpstene. Our first enrollment in high school included thirty-two members. During the year we lost Dick Fregoe, Helen Brayman, Joe Parker, Barclay Brabon, Dick Shanty, Robert Dumas and Pat Farmer. Our class officers for our first year were: President-C. Arno; Vice President - J. Lemieux; Treasurer-Y. Bishop; and Secretary-S. Susice. In September 1950 we seated ourselves in the Sophomore room with an enrollment of twenty- nine students. During the year we lost Elma Baker, Donna Richards, Irene Austin, Curtis Cox, David Palmer, Nina Wiley and Joyce Susice. Helen Chapman and Eleanor Burnett were added to the enrollment. We started making money this year. At one basketball game we sold score sheets, with pencils, for five cents which netted $3.35. We were on our way up! Class officers were: President-A. Corwin; Vice President-R. Giffin; Secretary-C. Arno; Treasurer-K. Sather; Student Council representatives-R. Giffin and A. Corwin; Class Ad- visor-Mr. Sharpstene. September 1951 found us in the Junior room, with nineteen members of the class. During the year we lost Teddy Chase to St. Lawrence Central. Our money making activities were more numerous and exciting this year. To start every- thing off, we won the $10 award for selling the most magazines per capita. Next we put on a supper for the Kiwanis Club which netted $20. We sponsored the first dance of the season, the Harvest Hop . A floor show drew the attention of the large crowd. We cleared $65. In the spring we had another dance, the Spring Fling . We made a profit of about $35. On November 17, four Juniors represented SRFatthe All-State Music Festival. They were: Connie Arno, Kay Fye, Ann Corwin and Connie Barkley. Sports included five boys as basket- ball players, three girls as cheerleaders and give girls on the volleyball team. Many were members of the band and glee club. Our class officers for the year were: President-J. Lemieux; Vice President-Y. Bishop; Treasurer-C. Arno; Secretary-R. Giffin; Student Council representatives-K. Sather and A. Corwin; Class Advisor-Mrs. Mendelsohn. So we had another year behind us but a bigger, more important year ahead. September 1952 found 19 seniors ready and willing to undertake the tasks of the year ahead of us. During the year we lost Arlene Ploof. We started off with the annual magazine campaign. It was very successful and we made a profit of $215. On november 7 we sponsored the Hunters’ Ball . We cleared $35 from it. We made $12 from a pair of socks raffled off in the fall. On November 20, the class put on the Senior Play, A Ready Made Family . Through the help of Miss Daly and the cooperation of the class, it was a huge success and we made a grand profit of $90. February 12 found us preparing for a turkey supper for the Fish and Game Club. It added $66.00 to our treasury. Class officers for the year were: President-J. Lemieux; Vice-President-C. Arno; Secre- tary-Y. Bishop; Treasurer-R. Giffin; Student Council Representatives-H. Chapman and B. Surprise; class advisor-Miss Harvey. Five girls, Wanda Roscoe, Ann Corwin, Arlene Ploof, Elsie Servant and Connie Barkley were representatives at All-State again. Connie Arno, Kay Fye, Shirley Susice, Yvonne Bishop, Jim Lemieux and Ronnie Giffin were representatives at the ESSPA conference in Syracuse. A spring dance, the carnival and another raffle will bring an end to our money making. The Senior trip to New York following graduation will wind up a perfect high school life. We will go June 23, and will stay at the Taft Hotel.
