The publication has survived, in one form or another, two wars, a depression, and the recent surge of inflationary prices. Although for a few years it existed only as a pa-per pamphlet, through the initiative and eo-operative effort of the class of '45 the SPECTATOR was brought back as the yearbook it should be. This year's edition is the third of the current series. Like the SPECTATOR, the class of '47 has survived the transition period from the machine age to the atomic era. Since every transition period is a time of minor chaos, many hectic days were put in by our class and by the yearbook committee. Along with the trying times, we have had amusing incidents as well, and it is in this journal that the more enjoyable moments of our high school days are recorded. The material presented is planned not solely for perusal on the day of publication, but it is designed to provide in later years pleasant memories of old acquaintances and of our happy teen-age life. It is with these thoughts that we now invite you to turn the pages.

CQRADY S wif approach graduation. we are upon the threshold of opportunity. Now that we have passed the preliminary stages, we are ready for the finals. This time the finals are the real test, the test of life. First, we must know what we are looking for, keeping in mind high ideals leading toward a definite culmination ol' our aims. These aims are happiness an-d satisfaction. When we think of these two goals, what do we mean? Do we mean money, power, sell'-importance? Thomas A. Edison, a, man we all know and admire, led a, contented and satis- factory life. He created and produced inventions for the bettermen of mankind. llad he manufactured his applianees, he prohahly eould have been wealthy and powerful, hut he sold all his diseoveries outright. Surh a man realized that happi- ness Comes not from wealth hut from pursuing one's own amhition. Like Edison, we too are looking for happiness and satisfaction, and we are likely to encounter many difiieulties as we enrhark upon our new adventure. lN'e are like a. ship newly launched into the sea of life-a new trim craft with shiny sails and the latest of modern equipment. .lust heeause we are well equipped does not mean wo shall have easy, Calm weather all through the voyage. All of us will experience our share of troubles and rough weather. During the tempest we may even lose our rudder. hut let us make a temporary rudder and fight the storm to victory. VN'hen we win, then we shall know real satisfaction. Again sailing the calm and peaeeflil water we shall have cause to he little proud. for a great ship is not always the one that looks sleek and trim in the harbor, hut it is one that is rugged-one that can stand battle and survive. GERALD '.llliRRlLI, Page Seven Page Eig In My Book of Memories Somewhere in the book of memories There is a space reserved for these: A louely school, quiet, sedate, My fellow .vruiors who zecrc ncver late, My teachers who had to fathom deep To hnd the brain they hoped to meet. Returning to the beginning of my high school nu moms I see myself with shaking knees Entering the portals of W.H..S. That I was a fresh-man you never would guess. We'll turn the page in my memory hook And give my sophomore year a look Well, not too bad! I'm doing better: I no longer look like an Irish setter. No more woe-begone eyes with wonder in store As I vainly look for the fourth or fifth floor. My marks are improving and that isn't had, If they don't stay that way I'll hear from Dad. What is this on the very n-ext page? Why it seems that I made my junior grade. At last an upperclassmang boy, what a thrill! I'm so happy I ran hardly sit still. Well, low and behold, now don't go and faint But a little old junior I no longer ain't. Alas, though I try with all my might, My l'l'lCIIl0I'Y4'LlIl,1 get English right. At long last we come to the end. I hope it hasn't bored you, my friend. To the students I leave I pass on one thought: You have -to workg knowledge ean't he bought. But what do you know! 1 got through, And surely if I did, you can too. Here on the last line all done in gold. Are great big letters written so hold. In this year of our Lord, one, nine, four, seven Ruth made it, good gracious, My stars, THANK HEAVEN. RUTH I I VM lx Senior Staff As we prepare to leave our Alma. Mater, we recall the many lasting friendships we have made. Among those we shall always remember are the officers who were elected to lead us through our senior year: Fred Gloeckner, president, with the able assistance of Bob Harris, vice-president, Camille Cutie, secretary, Louis Romeo, treasurerg and Frank Debrick, reporter. These officers were faithful and worked hard and successfully during the year 'to bring our high school days to a happy conclusion. Each one has done his part for his school, but more than that, each one has been a helpful friend to his teachers, associates in other classes and to his brothers and sister of '47. By the members of this great class, these officers will always be remembered. Doi' MGBMN Page Ten ISLIGANOK BENTLEY El CHARLES ALUND K'Charlie . Lolle - ltr ice Academic 1 I.

HISTORY OF THE CLASS 0F 1947 FRESHMAN YEAR September, 1943, should be remembered by all of Watervlict High School. It was the freshman year of a brilliant class--the Class of 1947. -The first d-ay was the most confused and tiresome of all, especially to beginners. We were brought to the audi- torium where we listened to some teachers discussing the various courses. After the talk, teachers led us to our homcrooms on the first and second floors. The freshmen encountered many mishaps, such as failing to find certain rooms, but it did not take long to get adjusted. Before we knew it, five weeks had passed by and that meant studying for the tests. We surprised both the teachers and ourselves by passing with Hying colors. The freshman class were certainly proud of themselves when January had gone by and they found that they had a half unit to their credit by having passed a half year subject, namely, civics. Before the Christmas vacation, we organized and elected our class officers. Miss Ruth Murray, homeroom teacher of 209, whom some lucky freshmen, including myself, got for a homeroom teacher, aided us in the election. The officers chosen were the following: president, Ed Kapelag vice-president, Ruth Levack, secretary, Rita Kristof, and treasurer, Paul Skinner. During our freshman year, dues were collected weekly. It seemed the students took finances seriously, for at the end of the year our treasury was full. Many freshmen participated in sports, especially in basketball. On the freshman team were Teddy Baxter, jimmy Wiseman, Ed Kapela, and John Sally. W.H.S. came in second in the Principals League. Baseball in the spring found Watervliet winning the championship again with the aid of a new freshman star, Hack Harris. We were proud of W.H.S. because of a banner year in sports and we felt that we were part of the success. iWith the arrival of spring, came two important school events. In May, Mr. Saunders had a special assembly at which he presented the honor students of the Senior Class. Each freshman wished that he could be on the stage as an honor student in 1947. In June, according to custom, all classes go to the auditorium for Moving-Up Day. The freshmen become sophomores, sophomores become juniors, and juniors become seniors. It is a sad day for the seniors, as we shall soon realize. Following Moving-Up Day came June finals, which meant study and cramming. The time flew and soon all the exams were finished. We certainly were glad when at last we had two months to relax. SOPHOMORE YEAR -When vacation was over, we found ourselves struggling once again with our schedules, in addition to making new friends and renewing old ones. We were sophomores now and looked up to by freshmen. The task of getting to a room in two minutes flat now was as easy as rolling off a log . Perhaps this year, some of us could get the sixth period free and lounge on the davenport in the library. The librarian, then Miss Lcttis, helped us considerably in picking books suited for us. English teachers liked this practice because both they and we knew book reports had to be in on time or else . Now that we were sophomores, class officers had to be elected to lead us through a successful term. The election was held in the auditorium, and the following were chosen as officers: president, Gerald Terrill, vice-president, Marion Mackay, secretary, Ted Baxter, and treasurer, Fred Gloeckner. Basketball began and at the end of the season, W.H.S. won the Class B championship and the finals in the Saratoga play-offs. Watervliet proved to be skillful in both baseball and soccer by winning the pennants. All of the Sophomore Class looked forward to the Sophomore-Senior Party, a social event given to the seniors by the sophomores. Miss Murray aided us again, and thanks to the committee chairmen, the party was a huge success. The music was provided by Charlie Randel. The gymnasium was deoerated in various colors by students of the Sophomore Class. jane Meyer and Travis Mosier read the Senior Roll Call. Many prizes were awarded and everyone seemed to have a. pleasant time dancing and drinking coke with his best girl. ' Before anyone had realized it, June just around the corner . Moving-Up Day then made jolly juniors out of us, a title which all of us liked. JUN1o1t YEAR Our year as juniors was one of the happiest periods of the whole four years. The feeling of satisfaction, confi- dence, and courage made everyone ready to smile. Now, we realized that teachers were real human beings. We knew that if a problem arose, a teacher would help and be a real friend to us. In our junior year we were accus- tomed to everything in the school. We also noticed a change in ourselves as we developed from children into adults. People spoke to us as men and women, not as children. Teachers had more respect for us, knowing that we were upperclassmen now. 'In September, 1945, Miss Ellen Barrett, a new social studies teacher, came to join the faculty of W.H.S. The Junior Class chose her as advisor for the coming year. Miss Barrett organized the class for the election of officers. The students who represented us this year were the following: president, Fred Gloeckncrg vice-president, Bill Gensicki, Page Twenty-two secretary, Doris Hopsong and treasurer, Ted Baxter. There was an increase in dues because of the many social events of the year. The juniors proved their brilliance by acting in the Christmas play, Why the Chimes Rang . Miss Jane Gabriels directed the play and the following students .were featured: Tom Boghosian, Ronald Powell, Gladys Lacerda, Phyllis De Poli, Gerald Terrill, and Anne Wunderlich. ln February, a long awaited time arrived-we chose our class ring. All the class enjoyed choosing the one they thought was best. A ring committee was made up and students who volunteered to work on-the job were congratulated. .The campaign between Bill Gensicki and Hack Harris for Student Council president will never be forgotten by the classes of W.H.S. Campaign speeches were read over the sound system each day for a full week. On the voting day, everyone cast his ballot and waited for the news. When the votes were all counted and Bill Gensicki had won, homeroom 209 felt deeply honored. The semi-formal Junior Prom was held at the Ten Eyck Hotel in Albany. The committee heads for the Prom were Fred Gloeckner, Bill Gensicki, and Gerald Terrill.. Music was furnished by Paul Erwin, and Shirley Jallon was crowned queen. At the end of the season, we had again obtained the championship in baseball, our fourth straight Principals League championship. In soccer we ended the season with a record of five wins, three ties and two defeats. The basketball team's most important game was playing Glens Falls at Convention Hall. Our boys in the closing seconds of an overtime game lost by one point. SENIOR YEAR After patience and hard work mixed with fun for three years, we are very proud to be called seniors. This is the year that everyone looks forward to and waits for patiently. The thought of graduation appears in every senior's mind. During the past three years each one of us has had problems which Mr. Sanders' kind and understanding manner has helped many of us solve successfully. The ofiicers chosen to represent us in the last year are the following: president, Fred Gloecknerg vice-president, O Robert Harrisg secretary, Camille Cutieg and treasurer, Louis Romeo. In November, the Junior-Senior Party was held in the gym with the Solid Senders providing the music. The Senior Ball: an April event, was a success as always. As a result of the efforts of some outstanding seniors and our faculty advisor, the Senior Ball will be remembered by many graduates of 1947. ln May, the senior play, You Can't Take It With Youu, was given. It was directed by Miss Jane Gabriels, head of dramatics, and the cast consisted of the following: Gerald Terrill, Gladys Lacerda, Patricia Carofano, Frank D1-Brick, Howard Stanley, Douglas Williams, Robert Knott, Fred Gloeckner, Marilyn Doust, Dick Burns, Shirley Ray, Bill Gt-nsicki, Ronald Powell, june Morrison, Camille Cutie, Herbert Fleck, and Warren Carr. i The Class of 1947 extends its sincere gratitude and esteem to Mr. Sanders, our principal, our teachers, and our class advisor, Miss Ellen Barrett. Their untiring efforts in helping us when we were in difficulty will never be forgotten. We shall always be grateful to them for their willingness to direct us on the path to success. y PETER CORNELL ' SUBJECTS English is, you all must agree, Very important to you and to me.

We vainly try to vault with charm But end up with a broken arm. H is for history which all must take, - Forty-hve minutes a day we forsake.

In their friendly hands we placed our fateg 'Tis for them we cheer as we graduate! MARION LABELLH Page Tavehtyrlrree CLASS WILL INTRODUCTION: Wills in general are very formal expressions of legal genius loaded down with declarations in high sounding words and phrases which accomplish the sole purpose of proving that lawyers are smart people. This author is of the opinion that, since everyone knows that lawyers are smart people or at least ought to be, after six or more years of higher education, the aforementioned high sounding words and phrases are inconsequential and totally unnecessary in a document of this type. Therefore, I do not advise anyone to take for an example of a general will the following, which is the last will and testament of the Class of 1947. The members of said class are unsound in mind and in body and have only a hazy idea of what a will is, anyway. Without further ado, here it is. Our first bequest is to the underclassmen, which consists of one set of faculty, sometimes eccentric and always sorely tried but otherwise perfectly fit and fully capable of handing out colossal homework assignments. They also seem to derive a terrific amount of pleasure from using the red pencil on examination day. A little advice to you juvenile delinquents: We wish to state that the aforementioned individuals should at all times be treated with due respect and consideration, especially before report cards and finals. Professor James Wiseman, the book-worm, leaves to the Watervliet High School library his personal collection of fifteen thousand rare and interesting volumes, like Forever Amber . Teddy Muscatel Baxter leaves his rare ability to miss the school bus by a split second to that glamour boy of Port Schuyler, George Williams. CI think he's cutej don't you?j To the future residents of the History Forum of l03 we bequeath Miss llanrahan's mighty line, Why should l buy a minstrel ticket when I get a minstrel show from you people all day long? Is it entitled Hanrahan's Minstrelsn? Hmmm? Marilyn Doust leaves all rights, stakes, claims, and copyrights to Maplewood and all this section implies to . . Marilyn Doust. Gladys Lacerda leaves her snappy wardrobe and a new book she has written, entitled How to Catch tln- Menibers of the Male Sex , to Marion Pollock, or perhaps some other junior who needs them more than Marion does. To all students who have trouble handing in their book reports, we leave that great literary achievement, The Book Report Digest , complete with novels, short stories, essays and plays. Doug Williams leaves the residents of the Troy-Schenectady Road in peaceful slumber. No longer do they wake up screaming at Doug as he flies by in his flivver with no mufiler or water in the radiator and with fifteen members of the Latham school district riding in the rumble seat. The Class of l94'7 cheerfully bequeaths its part of Frear's corner to next year's seniors. f'l'wenty girls signed a petition against this bequest saying, We don't intend to budge. l Don Muth leaves his share of Montgomery Ward and Company fthe firm of high wagesl to all underclassmen who intend to work there. George Slicko and the rest of the woodpcckers from Ill leave that new vocabulary word to Funk and Wagnalls. T he word is stratis . The meaning? You'll have to ask George. To Professor Sanders we nitwits leave all of the telephone receivers still in their places. I think that you will find that the prankster no longer attends Watervliet High, Prof. John Sally leaves his unique system of note-taking to all hidden Rembrandts of the lower classes. His system includes drawing pictures of the head of the girl seated in front of him, or possibly an original portrait of the instructor or even perhaps a game of tick-tack-toe. Barbara Aylesworth presents her fifty boy friends fincluding Eddiel, and her flirtatious eyes and mouth to Diana Carofano. 'To Bert Cehowski and the rest of the cheerful waiters and waitresses in Gil's we give the last booth where most of us have carved either our names or initials on the table top. Page Tavenlyfour The members of the art classes also leave a gift to Gil's, a sign with the word-s: Extra glasses of water will eost you five cents. After all, we have to make some money. Bill Phillips, the only man who attends school cheerfully and is unemployed at the same time cheerfully, leaves a copy of his pamphet entitled Finance Made Easy to Eddie Stevens. On the underclassmen we bestow that object of many campaign speeches, the third floor fountain, which every A.A. president since i936 has been fixing but which is still unrepaired. Did you ever try to drink out of that fountain? To Prof. Walsh and the members of that melodious group of young gentlemen called the Waterlivet High School Band, we leave the auditorium and music room, hoping t-hat they will make profitable use of the premises. Tish Stewart, who knows the way into Mr. Sanders' office better than he does himself, bestows peace and tran- quility on that sacred sanctum marked PRIVATE , ,Lucy Kasparian bestows her sense of humor and diary of stale jokes on all serious-minded 'souls that have yet to learn how to smile. Cubby Kapela, the original Calvert's man of distinction, leaves his excellent taste in clothes to Adolph Menjou and Frank Muscles Sinatra. To Marge Mahar we bequeath, and gladly so, that question: What is your trouble? The Bar-room Quartet leave their beautiful tenor voices to all the incoming freshmen who have not yet lost their grade school soprano voices. To the crowds entering the cafteria, we leave the Flight of the Bumble Bee so that they may have an excuse for the mad stampede-they were only keeping in time with the music. just think, a little bell causes that crushing, jarring, and maddening push to the cafeteria. The only thing comparable to it is a ride on the Temperance Hill cheesebox on a frosty winter mornin-g. The suave, dashing, handsome Howard Stanley leaves his Southern drawl and beaming smile to all of the serious, sour-faced souls of the Sophomore Class, the traditional Don't Tell Me! boys. The Class of 1947 hereby relinquishes all rights and privileges to the new meaning of L.S.fM.F.T. to the American Tobacco Company. Perhaps they will make it the basis for a new singing commercial. To all the future efficiency experts we leave the following legacy-a solution to the question: Why are students required to wait forty minutes for an excuse when they are two minutes late for school? It's undemocratic, ain't it? We bequeath a peaceful second Hoor to Mrs. Grady. No longer will the Casanovas whisper sweet nothings in the cars of their sweethearts behind the lockers near 207. To Miss Murray, who still insists that there are white horses, the members of homeroom 209 leave a clear view of the meadow. Don't give up hope, theylll appear on some blue Monday. Camille Cutie leaves her brilliance as an essayist tolall the future members of the D.A.R. We still insist that Camille will go far as an author. Perhaps to China, who knows? Remember, Camille, Pearl Buck did it and so can you. For the future female pupils of W.H.S., the Class of '47 has installed full-length mirrors in every other locker so that each may see for herself whether her slip is showing. To all students who are required to take Regents examinations we leave a copy of the February 7 issue of Life hlugazine. Turn -to page 113. The title of the article? If You're Going to Cheat, Do It Right. We, the class that piled all our defects and all our responsibility upon the slim shoulders of Miss Barrett within three weeks after her career in these sacred halls of learning began, leave her all our thanks for a job well done. 'l'o Mr. Sanders, who has guided us through the most hectic and unrnanageable years of our lives, we bequeath a major portion of our love and affection. So long, Pal. Bob Knott, classroom lawyer for the past year, refuses to allow his name to be signed to the Will because he insists that paragraph 3, line 2, and sentence 1 is irrelevant, immaterial, and inconsequential and is therefore out of orderg so we sign the will.

K 7 Q A QQNIQFW ffm-:QA ,, 3 e is-Q A JUNE EVENING OF 1977 Here we are seated on the Starlight Roof of the Plutonia , that fashionable supper-club moored five thousand feet above the surface of the moon. The room is noted for its murals painted by the great artist, jonathan Sally. Ultra-gamma rays give off just enough light to stir sentimental memories in the still young hearts of the members of the Class of 1947. From our ringside table, which commands a panoramic view of the spacious dance floor, we see our genial host, Steve Sally, has just ushered into the ballroom Mr. and Mrs. Frederick R. Gloeckner. Fritz , our president of '47, now operates a giant Florist Syndicate and Floriculturc Research Center. He has developed a new type of flower, which hatches from an egg instead ofthe conventional seed. Fritz's success has been equalled by the majority of the class, most of whom are paying huge annual income taxes to their classmate, Louis Romeo, now Secretary of the Treasury, who is living happily in Niagara Falls fprcsent capital of the United Statesj with his pretty wife, Shirley McAncny. Incidentally, they were married way back in 1952 by the Reverend Thomas Boghosian, D.D. Speaking of finances, Eugene Burns has opened a loan agency-loans up to ten thousand dollars. fOf course, there is a small matter of twenty per cent interest per annum.D At a table near ours, we glimpse a happy group of W.H.S. alumni including Gubby Kapela and his charming wife, Shirley That's All Jallon, who are celebrating Gubby,s great athletic triumph-he finally did the four-minute mile. In the Kapela party are Mr. and Mrs. Paul Skinner. Paul is the Skinner of the firm of Skinner and McBain, the Friendly Undertakcrs. joining the group is Bill Peters, who is now president of the Saratoga Racing Association. He has recently come into prominence by changing the racing rules of the track-the drivers now pull the horses around the track, backwards. Look, all eyes are riveted on the entrance! Camille Cutie, first woman Vice-President of the United States, has just made a dramatic entrance on the arm of her husband, Clark Kent falias, shhhh! ! ! Superman J. Camillz-'s candidate, Gerry Terrill, was just elected a Congressional Representative from New York. It is understood in unofficial circles that Gerry won all his votes by making campaign speeches with his shirt off. Dancing gracefully by are those scintillating Powers models-'Marilyn Doust Wasilenko, Marion Mackay and Shirley Ray. The svelt and streamlined Shirley is a living example of what Rye-Crisp can do. That dreamy look in their eyes is caused by the mellow notes of Hack Bing Crosby Harris, the hero of thc red woolics , who are the 1977 version of the bobby soxcrs. He is crooning the latest lyrics of our famous songwriter, joan Martin, entitled How Green Was My Dream. Perhaps you know, Harris has just signed a five-year contract with M.G.M. Don't miss his new picture, Women's Delight , in which he co-stars with Barbara Aylesworth. The artistic and scenic effects in the super colossal tcchnicolor production are supervised by Dorothy Emanatian and Zackary Zendran. Apropos of movies, rumors have it that jane Meyer will win the l977 Academy Award for her part in the Twentieth Century production Lifc of a Cheerleader . Gathered together again are the sportsmen of the class. Teddy Baxter has become a famous pro basketball star, playing with the Renaissance team at a reported salary of 880,000 a year. With Teddy is Slugger Jim Wiseman, the middlcweight champion, whose next title bout will be with Comps Gongoleski at the Hollywood Bowl. Another of thc celebrities at the sportsmen's table is Don Muth, who now owns a herd of horses valued at five dollars per head, everyone a guaranteed sway-back for easy riding. Don's theme song is Old Rockin' Chains Got Me . Ah! the roll of the drums indicates that the specially imported Cafe Society entertainment is about to begin. Entertainment chairman for the evening is Lucy Foghorn Kaspariang and Lucy is now introducing Shirley Boyd, who appears by special permission of the Metropolitan Opera Company, where she is the leading soprano. As she Hnishes her aria, she joins her friends, Eleanor Bentley and Mary Meyer, who help her fight off the stage-door Johnnies . Eleanor and Mary, Department Heads of the Faculty of Science at Cornell University, have been con- ducting research on the development of the electronic bomb, about twenty times as powerful as the obsolete atomic version. And now the main attracion of the evening is ,lack Hebert, who has just been signed by Plutonia after three months with Ringling Brothers Circus, playing the part of chief clown. His song Zippity-doo-dah is bringing nostalgic tears to the eyes of all his former classmates. Listening very attentively to Jack is Peter Frank Sinatra Cornell, who is the district attorney for Albany County. Poor Pete was black-balled from the Esquire Fraternity because hc wouldn't pay his dues. CPetc still owes 846.57 to 209 for class dues back in 1947.1 Remember Bill Gensicki? Well, he is just being presented as thc famous radio comedian of the air waves. Bill will do a skit from his own radio show Pedro , which is sponsored by Dr. Bunnytwcrp's Better Bunion Cure. What's he doing now? Ah, he's giving out samples. 'Chain-smoking fifty-cent cigars over at a corner table is Frank Debrick, our new news analyst and foreign corre- spondent for Winchell's Gossip News . He is listening with great interest to that eminent graduate of Union College, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dr. Z. Ethelbert Ronald Powell. Ronnie informs him that he has perfected an electro-magno-super-dynamic bomb. Tonight Frank is escorting two charming Page Twenty-eight ' literary celebrities of the Class of '47, Loretta Cesare and Theresa Kuziara. Loretta, pride of 2019, has just sent to the publishers her latest book, The Fifth Quart . No doubt she will win the Dopel Prize. Theresa has developed it new style of writing. In her novel, Backward Eye, the reader begins on the latest page and reads toward the front. Running true to form, we also have a stag line tonight, just as in every W.H.S. affair. The manager is just on his way over to tell them to be quiet, as they are in the midst of an animated discussion. Dick Burns, who is well on his way to becoming our state's best veterinarian, comments that he owes his success to that new drug, tridi- hedralasol sodium tortal, which will kill or cure any ailment ever known. Not to be outdone, Bob Knott, who is now professor of trigonometry and solid geometry at Harvard University, and Herb Fleck, who is chief of the Physics and Chemistry Department at M.I.T., report that they have finally achieved the ultimate of success in their research and proved to the world that 0x2:2 Knot 0!J. . . Oh! Oh! I guess it isn't a stag line because right in the center of the masculine group is Gladys Lacerda. Gladys, you know, has just developed a new vehicle which she calls the hydroairshipplane, a wingless, wheelless and motorless job for us on land, on and under the sea and in the air. Gladys is here with the other three members of the quartette of snappy dressers from Green Island-Dolores Dean, Flora Dickson and Helen Shull. How are prospects in 1977, girls? At last we have found out why Richard won't Open Dat Door . It seems that Richard, 'who is really George Kachidurian, doesn't: want to tear himself away from his evening smoke of Camelstrikerficld cigarettes. He refuses to Open Dat Door , even though im-plored by the new Jack Benny Quartette of Tish Stewart, Alice Jones, June Morrison, and Doris Hopson. Jack Benny at the age of eighty-six is still going strong, in spite of the fact that he has worn out five hundred seventy-seven toupees and insists that he isn't a day over thirty-five. ' W-hat's this! Everyone is running to the parking lot, it seems that some kind of accident has happened. What do you know! A three-car smash-up just took place. The driver of the first car is Jimmy Flanagan, who still maintains that the best fuel for running autoairships is kerosene. CWe still maintain that some of the fuel we purchased at the Flanagan filling station in '47 was kerosenc.l Elmer Washburn, driver of the second auto, seems to have been the cause of the crash, for he is experimenting with new brakes that work automatically when danger approaches. Rumor has it that the electric eye that controls the mechanism winked at the slick-chick riding with Earle Kelsey, the third victim of thc collision, and failed to see Flanagan's autoairship coming in to land. Oh, well, nothing was hurt except Elmer's prideg this is his forty-ninth trial spin and forty-ninth accident. Don't give up, Elmer, think how long it took Edison to perfect the electric light! . The house lights are dimmingg the music is getting slower and softer, and the waiters are greeting customers with yawns instead of smiles, so perhaps we had better leave Plutonia now. A delicious supper, old acquaintances, and memories of the good old days have made this evening the pleasantcst one we have enjoyed in a long time.

On days such as this, we sit earnestly hoping, and perhaps hoping, and perhaps praying, for something exciting, humorous, or unusual to happen-something, anything that would break the monotony of a long tiresomely tedious day. It was on such a day as this, that, as if fate had intervened, the telephone rang. As the teacher approached Be1l's pride and joy, an unusual sensation came over me. Was the call for me? Would my prayers for excitement materialize? Patiently I listened to the onesided conversation, hearing only, Yes, yes. You're welcome. The teacher hung up the receiver, amid the deathlike silence of the room and turned to look directly at me. Rose, she said, you're wanted immediately in the oflicef, I sprang up and dashed out of the room, thinking that this was my lucky day. Then, it dawned on me. I was heading for THE OFFICE. The trip through the hall and down the stairs was the longest journey I ever had the misfortune to take. My legs were numb and heavy, making walking difficult. Even though I had a clear conscience, strange frightening thoughts persistently entered my head. What had I done wrong? Had my mother or father become suddenly ill? A teacher passed me in the hall, and she seemed to look suspiciously at me. I was so excited that when a student passed me, saying Good morning, I replied, Good afternoon. I was forced to stop at the drinking fountain for a drink to pep me up . By this time I was resigned to my fate. After all, I would not be the only student to have been expelled from high school. When I finally did enter the ofliee, I was told to wait until Mr. Sanders called for me. The one minute that I waited seemed to last an houlr. The next thing I heard was the familiar Come in, pal, and I realized that I was being called into the ofiice by the principal. Just as he was about to explain why he had called me, the telephone rang. The wait was a little too much for me, so I fell back into the chair which was conveniently placed for people like me. Finally, Mr. Sanders put the receiver down. Then-the important long-awaited moment came. I laughed with relief, for my worries had proved pointless and without foundation, I was informed that I was to make announcements that week.

The Formal Dance - Then and Now We students sometimes believe ourselves to be possessors of a great deal of wisdom. This may be partially true, but I am afraid it might take a considerable amount of effort to convince certain grown-ups of this fact. When it comes to having fun, they are 'inclined to think that we just don't know how. After listening to a conversation between my parents and some of their friends I'm beginning to feel the same way about some things. First they talked about picnics, rides to and from Kingston Point on the day boats, parties, hikes and shows they attended. Then they turned to the subject of formal dances in their day and ours. I was amazed to hear them tell that they would get all dressed up and gracefully step into a luxurious, streamlined trolley car. Nowadays, we worry for weeks ahead of time where we are going to get a car or whether the other couples riding with us are going to be sociable or not. In place of the fancy bags which young ladies formerly carried their dancing slippers in, we carry evening bags contain- ing compacts, lipstick, rouge, combs, perfume, handkerchiefs, mad money , and other miscellaneous articles. By the time we make this collection, we haven't any room for our slippers, so consequently, we have to wear them. Unce in a while we get our feet wet but what can a girl do--she has to be in style. After arriving at the dance, showing our bids at the door, and checking our coats, we prepare ourselves to dance with our escorts all evening long. Then we wonder why we can only follow certain people in dancing. In my parents' time the gentlemen would unbutton the young lad-ies' street shoes so they could change to their dancing slippers more quickly and easily. The gentlemen then proceeded to fill out the ladies' dance program, each placing his own name at the first, last, and whatever special dances he particularly felt like dancing with her. The remaining dances were exchanged with other gentle- men. This gave the fellows a chance to dance with whatever girls they wanted to, but the girls had to take what they got. Nevertheless, in order to cross the dance floor or leave the hall, a girl had to be accompanied as far as the door, and if her partner was not present at the time, it was her privilege to ask any male member of their group to escort her. This was one method the young ladies of that day had of getting back at their boy-friends if they left them with an undesirable partner. Our bids are used to have our friends scribble their autographs all over. I believe the cause of this to be the fact that most of us do not know what the numbered lines on our bids are actually for. We consider the steps we do pretty sharp , but after some of the demonstrations I have seen of the bluebell, waltz, two-step, tango, fox trot and others, I think, Chl my aching back! After the ball was over at twelve o'clock, if your partner had more than your nickle trolley-fare, you m-ight be lucky enough to get a bag of peanuts or a dish of ice cream, but only if you could find an ice cream parlor open at that time of night. Nowadays we go searching for more places to dance and generally wind up having breakfast in the wee hours of the morning before going home. And is it really worth all the trouble? We sometimes get the feeling that our parents could not possibly have had the fun that we are having, but sometime when they start reminiscing with old friends, just keep your eyes and ears open and I am sure you will find a great deal of enjoyment simply listening to the tales of your parents' experiences and adventures. SALLY DELonv 'A' THE SECRET OF SUCCESS Push, said the button. Never be led, said the pencil. Take pains, said the window. Albany keep cool, said the ice. Be up-to-date, said the calendar. Make light of everything, said the fire. Do a driving business, said the hammer. Bc sharp in your dealings, said the knife. Find a good thing and stick to it, said the glue.

A large number of girls answered the call for try-outs . Regardless of the number, each girl played on a team. One team sport that has steadily increased in popularity is soccer. Since there were so many girls in practice, several teams were organized. There were one senior, one freshman and two sophomore teams. These teams played eachother, and as a result of these matches, the seniors and sophomores were opponents in a Final contest. 'Seniors were victorious by a score of six to four. It was arranged for us to play against Lansingburgg but because of certain difficulties, we had to cancel the game we had all looked forward to. In volley ball we were somewhat more successful. We were able to stage a play day with teams from Oneida as our guests. The play day proved to be a hit and a good time was had by all. Basketball is one sport that never dies in popularityg and, as in previous years, many girls tried out for the intramural and class teams. Play days were held and games between the classes were played after school. With the close of the basketball season, the girls eagerly turned to softball in the spring. Field hockey is this year's addition to the sports program and I predict that it will become so popular it will rank second only to basketball. For the few practices that it was possible to schedule, there were enough present to make the efibrt worth while. The individual sports program began with horseback-riding in the fall. Its popularity increases after a slight decline from last year. Two years ago a new sport, bowling, was opened to the girls of W.H.S. and proved very popular. A similar response was expected this year, but because of our inability to secure sponsors and an alley, the sport was discontinued. Swimming classes are still being held twice weekly, in the Y.W'.C.A. The group of attending girls are divided into three classifications: beginners, intermediates and lifesavers. Swimmers interested in securing state certificates must pass tests formulated by the state. Because of the arrival of new bows and arrows, archery had a larger number of followers th-is year than ever before. Once the girls learned that it did much to improve a person's carriage and poise, they tried harder than ever for perfection. Shuffleboard and ping-pong are two sports closely followed by the less active girls. These sports are played indoors in separate rooms designed for them. In the ping-pong room, there are two tables and eight paddles. In the other room, there are two regulation courts and one squad court painted on the floor of the girls' locker room. One course that 'is taught chiefly for the sake of freshmen and a few upper classmen is ballroom dancing. This course provides the girls a chance to learn how to do the fox trot, waltz, rhumba, and the other types of dances. It also tends to give them more grace and poise in their performance of this art. Gym has -been most pleasant this year, and the factor that added to it was the arrival of the physical education cadet teachers from Cortland. There is an exchange of teachers at the end of every period of ten weeks. We have had three so far-+Miss Eckler, Miss Bauer and Miss Johnson. ' All our play days were made possible by the efforts of the G.A.A. and the Leaders' Club, the honorary group'of this organization. Our activities will not be confined to our school only, for we have received several invitations to play days sponsored by the schools of Oneida, Lansingburg and Emma Willard. LILLIAN DiBAcco BOYS IN SPORTS With the addition of football to the list of sports this year, more boys in Watervliet High School found themselves participating in sports. Instead of only four major sports, Watervliet has now raised its total to five. After a lapse of twenty-five years, football returned to Watervliet High last fall with great success. Over one hundred candidates reported to try out for the team. Although it was the first football team representing our school in over two decades, the team played good ball and enjoyed a successful season. While football was in progress, the soccer team was, by no means, idle. Enjoying a highly successful season, paced by Captain jimmy Wiseman, the team barely missed winning a championship and ended up in second place. A . With a majority of last season's junior varsity representing this year's varsity basketball team, Watervliet is having a very.unpredictable season. ' What, at first, looked like a runaway championship for the 1946 baseball team proved to be one of the closest Principals League races in years. Nevertheless, when the season ended, Watervliet, again, for the fourth consecutive year, had won the scholastic pennant. The track team suffered the loss of many crack veterans but still had a fair season. Hopes for the l947 squad are very high. Least talked about, but doing very important jobs are the managers, scorers and timers. The many hours these boys are with the squads have a direct influence on the success of the teams. Although all the boys in Watervliet High School could not participate in these sports, the teams would like to thank the boys who did not play, for their great spirit and support at the games.
