There’re ships to build and guns to fire And lots of mouths to feed There are some people across the sea That Europe doesn’t need. Look here you fightin’ leathernecks We’ll meet in some other land And with the class of ’43 Take the situation well in hand. You too, sailors we’ll sec you soon And tear the seas asunder We won’t stop till Victory’s won And the other fleet’s down under. So gather round—you khaki kids We will soon join your ranks And show the world some real results From a bunch of fightin’ yanks. We’ll also keep those factories hot Till all that work is done So come on Yanks—we’ll give ’em Tanks There’s a Victory to be won.

Our hearts remain while we search for fame For nothing can stop the class of ’43. Out we go—as memories lie behind us We’ve worked hard—to get through.

For, while we arc still working and fighting towards victory in today’s war, we are becoming more and more interested in the peace to come. We realize, and this was proved in 1918, that to lose the final peace will have as serious an affect upon us as the loss of the actual armed conflict. As the war has progressed toward what we arc confident will be a satisfactory conclusion, our thoughts are beginning to move forward to another time, the post-war era. How will we fit into the picture? Will we be ready to take our place? We have been fighting. Some of the members of our class are in the armed forces. Others arc in war work, and still others have relieved the manpower shortage by- taking less critical positions. This is all in addition to the civilian defense, rationing, and other activities to which wc have applied ourselves. Thus, wc have been and will continue to be partners—partners with our government in the drive toward victory. But—when this is all over—can we sit back complacently and say “We have done our job”? Will we be able to rest on these laurels, no matter how well- earned? Of course not, this will be the first and primary step toward a just and lasting peace. Wc must share in this greater victory. We are partners. And partners we should remain—partners in the huge corporation of democracy!

Time has really flown right by. As we return in thought to 1939, our first year of high school, we cannot see it clearly. We find that we cannot distinguish one year from the next. We see our Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior years as a solid portion of our lives rather than as four separate years. A solid portion of our lives—a happy, gay, carefree portion— which we will never forget. Let us wander back into these years just once more before we become a part of the world which lies before us. As Freshmen, we were one of the largest classes Waterford has ever had. We were divided, because of our size, between two homerooms—Miss Caney’s and Miss Fortune’s. We were, and have been, from the start fortunate to have the wisdom and perseverance of Miss Fortune to guide us. In that first year, being a quiet, unassuming group of people, we worked diligently with few extra-curri- cular activities. Our main objective was well in view and we were well rewarded to find ourselves in 1940 regular Sophomores. As Sophomores, we felt that we were really on our way. We followed up a newly-set precedent in conducting our Sophomore Soiree. Worried though we were about the outcome of our venture, our fears were calmed by the jocund, capacity crowd which attended. We found that we had a successful dance on our hands. As Juniors, we found that we had luckily been reassigned to Miss Fortune, yet we also found that not so luckily, we were still in room 207. Here we were, grown up. illustrious Juniors still on the second floor. Were we going to let a triviality such as this dishearten us? Our very successful Junior Prom and the choosing of our class rings which culminated the work of our Junior year is the best answer we can offer. We had food sales, card parties, dances, movie benefits and many other money-making enterprises. For a while, our pecuniary status looked a little weak in the knees. We were even threatened by the Seniors with drastic action if we didn’t manage to provide favors for their Prom. In the end it was called one of the best Proms which Waterford has ever held. Our Prom theme was original and provided excellent opportunities for decoration. We had Thirty ..sssazissseggaeaecseessssaccsaea 1943 Ikaoaeez rCRDIAN a Chinese garden and our very ingenious decoration committee did wonders with black and yellow paintings for the walls and wisteria for overhead. Those present enjoyed the quaint bridge and pool effect in the center of the floor. We had an Empress of China to fit in with the theme. Through the combined efforts of the class, it turned out to be a grand and glorious affair—with favors for our beloved Seniors. Before we knew what had hit us, we were Seniors. The first and most wonder- ful surprise in store for us was our new homeroom on the third floor! We had our class pins, our election of officers, the presentation of our Senior Play, “Murder Mansion” which was incidentally a great deal of fun for all under the capable direction of Miss Gainor, and our planning for our yearbook just as other Senior Classes had—but we were not like other Senior Classes. We were in the middle of war. We have come up against numerous difficulties in raising money for our affairs and for our yearbook. There was the lack of fuel for heating, which prevented our use of the gym- nasium: the food rationing, which curtailed our use of food as a means of raising money; the shortage of gas and rubber and the other changes in everyday life. Because of these things we have given up our Senior Ball; we have relinquished not only favors for our Prom but the Prom itself. We have as a class diminished in size since we were Freshmen. A good part of those who are gone are now in service. These things which we have given up have been important to us, but we have given them up gladly for something which means a great deal more to us—Freedom. We have taken part in our Victory Corps; we have helped with rationing; we have secured part-time jobs in defense plants; we have helped in scrap drives; we have bought stamps and bonds, and we are continuing to help in every possible way. The least we can do is our best. We have always been a class united in our efforts towards school and now wc are utilizing this ability to work solidly as a whole in attaining and preserving the peace that will eventually be ours. During the past four years, we have enjoyed the surprises and disappointments of high school life, together. Perhaps we have missed much that we should have gained, yet reviewing these memories I am sure that we will consider ourselves very fortunate in having worked together so successfully through four short years.

President Vice-President Secret ary-T reasurer Senators Juanita McCarty Carolyn Currier Mary Powers Janet Rebman Raymond Conklin ' Verna Dick | Doris Dupree Viola Opitz There is a certain time each year in the student’s life, first dance, Soiree, etc., when the student goes around dispelling all gloom. When the Juniors did this and started regarding the hands of their fellow classmates, we knew that they had received the symbol of Waterford High, their class rings. This was one of the highlights of their year. One homeroom as their Christmas project donated money toward the Honor Roll while the other achieved 100% in the purchase of War Stamps for its project. Money making schemes have been and are being discussed for the future Some devices may have to be omitted because of the war but the Class of 1944 can overcome this difficulty by new ideas of which every class has plenty. In this way, they can achieve victory. 1943 Forty-three ?? 3 u • i ?? � ! II � � � 1 II ii I! i I !: � ?! I 1 I ii I ! I I ii j FCCDI4N 1943 fCCCIAN CLASS CL 1945 SOPHOMORES Class Adviser ....

This was to be followed by other equally successful functions, but the shortage of fuel oil prevented them from holding more, to help start their way to a successful year. Grumbling didn’t follow this, and for their Christmas project they cheerfully donated a sum of money to the United Service Organization at Troy. With the coming years, the Sophomore Class will probably be one of the most successful classes that Waterford High will send into the world. They have had adverse conditions but they will not lack the determination to pull them through happy, united, and prosperous. 1943 Forty-five VJ % ft ft « ft 1 H •i I II ij � s: R I � «� £f ii i 4 n t !! t) 'I ff If S U ii � 1 St II s f; t � H II St St ii I PCCDIAN Forty-six sssssssesssssssssc 1943 rCCLIAN tMWMMMMMMWMWMOMW� • « WMWMWMWMMW CLASS CL 1940 Class Advisers President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Senators FRESHMEN j Mrs. Margaret W.

Arne Heggen Edward Tracy Marjorie Curtin James Conklin | Bruce Dick |Lauren Connery The activities of the Freshman Class, along with the other classes, have been somewhat curtailed because of the war. For their Christmas project, the Class of 1946 endeavored to have the members buy at least two war stamps during the preceding weeks. In the project, over 90% of the students contributed toward it. A week before the entry of Mrs. Haggerty as an Ensign in the WAVES, the class held a farewell party in her honor. She was presented with a gift and a corsage. The centerpiece was a farewell cake. Although the Class of 1946 may have gotten off to a slow start, they have shown they can cooperate and that is the beginning of the class and school spirit which will be a great help to them when they leave Waterford High School in 1945. i:essB::s:sss:aaect::s:sBSgaBc:::a 1943 Forty-seven • I u 1 u S a N « I u u I « i i STLDCNT SENATE Officers President.......................Arthur Fero Secretary...................Shirley Follett Treasurer .........

We, as Seniors, feel that it has been a job “well done.” This year, for the first time since the organization was founded, its members have found reward for their constant efforts to maintain orderly traffic conditions in the halls between classes and during fire drills. In January, several members were awarded letters bearing the white cross of service. We feel that this incentive should spur the other Monitors and future members of the squad on to even greater efforts to perform their duties to the fullest. 1943 Forty-nine f€CDI4N high schccl chchls At Christmas time, the High School Chorus, under the direction of Miss Shel- don, performed the cantata, “The Infant Holy” by Louise E.

The team consisting of Gibby Gentile, Orlando Pallozzi, John Normandin, Bob Scarry, Bob Cramer, Ray Cicchinelli, Bruce Dick, Will Mazula, and Bill Fero, had hardly a chance to “get going.” The record as far as the season went was 2 victories and 5 losses.

Led by Captain Bob Scarry, Bob VVoodin, and John Normandin, the team defeated Christian Brothers Academy of Albany for the class B champion- ship. For the first time in its history, the Red Raiders defeated strong Nott Terrace- High of Schenectady. Running in the annual Syracuse meet they finished fourth out of twenty-two high schools in the Class B run. The team added further laurels to its record by finishing fourth and annexing a trophy in the Grout Memorial Run at Schenectady. The team was composed of the following: Captain Bob Scarry, Bob Woodin, John Normandin, Will Mazula, Bob Cramer, Dan Patregnani, Carmen Ziccardi, John Maruski, Stanley DeVoe, Fred Willetts, Bruce Chapman, Alfred Nealer. TRACK Waterford’s track team, consisting of Captain Bob Scarry, John Normandin, Will Mazula, Joe Slupski, Tom Holton, Gibby Gentile, Carmen Ziccardi, and Fred Willetts, competed in several meets. One of these meets was at Saratoga in the E.N.Y.P.H.S.A.L. There were also dual meets with Watervliet and Lansingburg High Schools and one at Schenectady on Memorial Day. Fifty-nine If u u i I u !i i! ii ! :: I I ii ! i 8 i i rCCDIAN ECWLING After quite a successful start in their bowling season, defeating Cohoes and Watervliet respectively, Waterford lost their next two matches to the same teams in that order. The team, however, had a chance to win the trophy for the year, but the last match, in which they lost 3 games, proved fatal. The Fero brothers, Art and Bill, sparked the team; Bill holding honors for a high single of 234 and Art, high team average of 164. Other members of the team were John Normandin, Orlando Pallozzi, Fred Willetts, Will Mazula and Chuck Clough. A situation similar to that of the basketball team was faced by the bowling squad. Their regular season consisting of 12 match games, was cut to 4, due mainly to the transportation problem.
