Ruth Winkler, in the art department, will show us some of her fine art work, and while she is doing this and you are looking at stick figures, think of Gladys Baker, our literary editor, and the time she has spent writing this material. Dedication In recognition of the members of the senior class who have joined the services of our country. Jack Carson of the Navy in the South Pacific, Hial Hall of the Navy in the Atlantic Ocean, Don Brown of the Navy in the South Pacific, and Pat Morrison of the Army in Virginia, we, the Senior Class of '40, dedicate this issue of “The Hackensack.’’ Seated, Left to Right: Don Cameron, Ralph Brown, Howard Hull, President; Lewis Crandall, Walter H. Pasco, absent. Standing, Left to Right: Charles H. Brown, Clerk; Nathan Gifford. Supervising Principal. To this group of citizens of the Central School District who have assumed a large amount of responsibility in the organization and construction of our new school and in the guidance of its program, we the students sincerely sayTHANKS! The Principal, who has a twenty-four hour job; the Man who has as his motto “Warrensburg Central School, always at the top”; the Disciplinarian who “greets” us in the office, and the Advisor who can always find time to talk over our problems with us— yes, that’s our Principal, Mr. Nathan Gifford!

V • As we, the class of 1940, entered our freshman year in high school hack in the year 194 2, we little knew the ups and downs of high school life. However, our minds were soon developed as we buckled down to the actual tasks of becoming good classmen under the devoted guidance of Miss Myra Fleet. The following year, 1943, with a few less old members and some new ones added, we entered the new Central School as Sophomores. We had now passed our trial year and were plunged into a new life under our pleasant advisor, Miss Phyllis Roberts. The Junior class of 1944. now more sagacious and ambitious, resumed their studies under the guidance of Mrs. Armine Gurney. This year we held many parties and gave a successful Senior Ball. The Senior class of 1946, a very proud but peace-loving group, entered their last year of high school with a victorious feeling. We have reached one goal and now must go on to our varied destinations of life until we all reach the finale of our careers. Our Senior Class, we are happy to say, has gathered several new members and we have a new but erudite advisor, Miss Florence T. Garfall. We have worked hard to earn our enjoyable trip to Washington and as we are the first class in four years to make this trip, can you blame us for being proud? MARY BRANNON We the class of 1940, of Warrensbtirg Central School in the County of Warren and the State of New York, being of sound mind (?) and fail- temper (most of the time), do will and bequeath our last will and testament as follows: To the faculty, we will one week without having to buy pencils, cards, papers, etc., from the next Senior Class. To Mr. Gifford, we will “peace of mind” for his next Senior trip to Washington. To the Junior Class, we will our unusual and unique ability to raise money. We, the Seniors of 1940, do will to our underclassmen the following: Virginia Pralt wills to Joyce Cameron her fickle mind. Alice Walker wills to Joyce Mosher the right to come to school one day a week. Don Rcbinson wills his technique of getting to school on time to Bo Cassidy. John Robinson wills Don to anyone who will take him. Ernie Vamum wills his right to go to classes without homework done to Ed Morrison. Ken Alger's prize possession is Dot and he won't will her to anyone. (leorge Ireland wills his “Supposin’ ability in Miss Fleet's class to John Brown. Dot Wadsworth wills part of her Home Ec. ability to Doris Gallup; the other part she’ll need. Vivian Ide wills her famous giggles to Ruth Duell (as if she doesn’t do so now!). Len Harrington wills his “wicked eye (on the basketball court) to Neil Wood. Mary Brannon wills her place at the cafeteria sink to Betty Straight. Dick Lewis, our well-known president, wills his ability to get away with things to another athlete. Ray Black. Miralyn Magee wills innocence to June Wood. Sarah Combs wills her conscientiousness to Louise Aubrey. Edna Williams wills her flippant attitude to Doris Parker. Mary Pasco wills all the responsibility she's had this year to Marie Rhodes. Marcia Sprague wills Neil and Doris the right to b engaged at 17. Elizabeth Beswick wills Winnie Wallace her silliness. Grace (‘ampl ell has a man with a car. She wills “good luck” to the Junior girls so they may lx lucky, too. Les Olden wills his lx autiful maroon wool shirt to Mbs Garfall. Jo Harrington wills her report card to Bill HofTman—he’ll never get out with his. Joey Sallans wills all the subjects she took this year to anyone who is fool enough to want them. Murray Pratt wills his tardy habit to Bob Lewis who must have inherited some from Dick. too. To the Janitors, we will a new broom to use after the Seniors’ party next year. To Miss Wilcox and Miss Garfall. we leave our sincere appreciation for all they did for us this past year. The above is our last will before leaving good old W.C.S. Signed this first day of June, 1946. Witnesses: Alice Walker Larry Richards '58 Mary Gerhehty '57 Martha Lynch '58 Bradford Mundy '57 je On June 25. 1956. exactly ten years after the graduation of the illustrious 46 Seniors, a friend and I set upon an excursion to find the whereabouts of our classmates. This proved to be very enlightening! We want immediately to the Keith Tower, erected by the enidite scientist, Mr. Henry Keith. From this tower one could see points of interest all over the world. We picked up our telescope and looked first upon a beautiful cottage in Pack Forest. We saw Pot and Ken and their two children seated around the dinner table looking very happy indeed. Ken is now owner and sole proprietor of the Amusement Park which features square dancing on every night but Sunday. Turning to California, we saw in the Sequoia Forest a guy resembling Ernie Vamum and, no wonder, it was Ernie. He was laboriing to chop down a giant redwood with his penknife. Ernie said he never liked to work anyway, and he figured this was the best he could get in that line. Jumping from the great west back to New York, our eyes traveled to the Starlight Room of the Waldorf-Astoria. And, guess what! The featured band was that of Les Olden, who had just recently taken over the band of the aging Harry James. Hopping over to a penthouse on Fifth Avenue, who should we see but Ubby Beswick, who immediately after graduation, had Income Libby Goopen- heimer IV. Lib told us that she had been made an honorary member of the Stork Club after the arrival of her last of four sets of twins. All of a sudden a Hash came over Lib’s radio from the capital saying that George Ireland had been elected president of the United States on the Demo- cratic ticket. Now we were sure that Ginni Pratt could get her bill through Congress concerning the raising of the price of pork. Sarah Combs, incidently. through her influence with President Ireland, received a swell job in George's cabinet as Secretary of Labor. As we looked upon a funeral parlor in Minneapolis, we found Edna Williams whistling at her work, and trying to talk at the same time. When asked about business, she replied that it was fine, as more | eople were dying every day. Even so, she was not sure how long it would last, as Murray Pratt had just concocted a new longevity pill, which enabled p.-ople to live indefinitely. Although not perfected, the pill business made Edna so angry that she nearly tipped over a bottle of embalming fluid. We then turned our focus back to Billy Rose’s Diamond Horseshoe in New York where Len Harrington, special envoy to UNRA, was seen gazing dreamily at Billy Rose’s gorgeous gals. Len informed us that his friend. Puffer Robinson, was chief executive for the Schlitz Beer Co. and Puffer was getting huskier every day. Don said that Gert was home taking care of their three beautiful children. He told us that their wedding ceremony was performed by none other than Pick Leins, famous Mormon pastor. We then turned our gaze to Beevin’s Reformatory where we found Mary Pasco teaching English. She was doing the kids a lot of good. When we glanced toward far-off India we looked upon a sparkling pool situated in front of a beautiful castle. Who’s this sitting by the pool surrounded by gorgeous women? Yes. you guessed it—John Robinson. He must be in Seventh Heaven now. He had heard via radio of the marriage in Chicago of two popular girls-about-town. Yes, Marcia finally married Ken Johnson, and Joey Sallans married George Sprague. It was a double wedding, we understand, and the couples went on a honeymoon trip together to South America. Upon entering we saw Mary Brannon Kenyon trying in vain to listen to Spike Jones’ program. The vocalist, Lyn Magee, was giving her rendition of “Cocktails for Two” in Spanish. The reason for Mary’s difficulty in hearing was that Ted, Jr., had just caught his hand in the wringer of the washing machine and was crying like mad. Did you ever wonder what happened to that l eautiful wolfess. Alice Walker? Well, she’s running a hot dog-soft drink stand outside of Schenectady and is doing a wonderful business. In Philadelphia, we witnessed an accident. Fortunately, no one was seriously crippled, thanks to the surgery of the great doctor, Vivian Ide. Yes. Viv’s a great surgeon, and has just discovered a drug, even better than penicillin, which she condensed from the d?w of grass. From the hospital, we entered the Home of the Feeble-Minded, where we found to our surprise, small and debonair Jo Harrington. She was not.to be sure, emolled as a patient, but was the head nurse of the institution. Because of its great distance from the States, we left our visit to Grade Campbell for the last. You see, she and Jimmy and their four Parkers had retired to live in South Africa, where Jim is employed as a big game hunter for the Bronx Zoo. We then took leave of the famous Keith Tower with happy memories of W.C.S. refreshed.

We are helping the Senior Class this year by taking over the responsibility of pub- lishing the Senior Year Book. We’ve had lots of fun cooperating ,'n raising money for the Year Book by having dances and parties. We sincerely hope when we are Seniors, we can have as much fun and cooperate as well as we have this year. First Row, Left: Audrey Burch. Edna Millington. Winnie Wallace. Shirley Harris.

First, we found ourselves at last superior to the lowly Freshmen, a goal we had been striving for since entering high school. After properly initiating them, we once more had time to get our bearings. As we did this, we dis- covered some startling facts. A few of these were: all the cheerleaders were sophomores; we had placed seven boys on the football squad and five boys on the Varsity basketball squad. One could find us sprinkled throughout band, glee club and other extra-curricular activities. Thus satisfied by our achievements, we once more settled down for a long winter’s work.

We hold class meetings every two weeks, on Friday the eighth period. Dur- ing these meetings any business, old or new, is brought before the class and discussed. All the member of our class take pride in being Freshmen. Even though we are just beginning our high school careers, we intend to make the best of our first year because we know it is an important step in our schooling. We hope we can set an example for the future Freshmen. The Student Council is a group composed of our advisor. Miss Fleet, and of students elected by the homerooms—grades 7 through 12. For the year 1945-46 the council includes: President—Mary Pasco, Secretary—Mary Menshausen, Dick Lewis, Roger Greer, Ray Black, Reg Needam, Harold Wilsey and Nick Jacobs. for our initial movement, we formed a traffic squad and arranged to con- tinue the duties of former Student Councils. We are planning an enlarged extra-curricular program for our student body. By introducing several new clubs, we have formed the Rifle Club, Dance Club, Sub-Deb Club, Photo Club and Varsity Club. Thus, with faculty aid, in 1945-46 we have established five new organizations which convene three Fridays a month during the 8th period.

But as “The Hackensack” goes to press, we’re now experienced and we (the team) promise you, the faculty, the student body, and the towns people, that we will play hard and make the 1945-46 season a basketball season of which you will be proud.

We worked hard for many days, We gave parties and plays. We held raffles and sponsored dances, Even asking our parents for advances. We tried in every way The cost of the trip to defray. For to complete our education We must see the capital of the Nation. New York, Philadelphia, Washington, We saw a lot and had fun. But back we came with Regents to try. It’s June and we are Alumni! Now some for a higher education will strive; Others in a business world will thrive. Some will take a husband, some a wife And settle down in Warrensburg for life. Some will face problems in vain, Problems our teachers failed to explain. But we’ve set out to prove the claim Our education was not in vain! —Leslie Oldex Class Motto: He Conquers Who Conquers Himself Class Flower: Yellow Rose Class Color: Maroon and Grey a oS The Mosts of the Class of 1946 Athletic Boy.......................................................Len Harrington Athletic Girl......................................................Mar ‘ia Sprague Most Initiative....................................................Mery Brannon Biggest Flirt.................................................................Dick Lewis Most Dependable........................................................Harrington Biggest Drag with Faculty..............................................Mary Pasco Best Excuse Maker......................................................Dick Lewis Worst Giggler......................................................Libby Beswick Class Musician............................................................ v Lie ( lass Artist..................................................................Len Magee Most Conservative............................................................Murry Pratt Most Persevering........................................................Les Olden Wittiest..........................................................
