Little did we realise at the time that these squirming, abashed creatures were to haunt and torment one another for at least twelve years. Through the capable hands of Mrs. Everts, most of us passed at the end of our kindergarten year. Although the first few years are now remembered somewhat dimly, certain events stand out in our minds, such as when Marian Bell (quite a chubby little kid even then) observed the usage of a spelling book during a spelling test by little Jackie Bassett. That knowledge was soon passed on to Miss Heifer, our patient and sympathetic 2nd grade teacher. What happened then? Well, ask Marian. Third, fourth and fifth grades were met and hurdled without too much difficulty, and we sometimes stop and wonder just how our grade teachers tolerated us. We were (and still are) quite a handful of kids. Then in the 6th grade a new visage appeared among our group; a boy who often during that year got a little under our skins because he knew more about geography than most of us and could write like Miss Parker. Now, you know—it was none other than Clinton Terrio, who hailed from sunny California. Well, up to that time, we’d had it pretty easy—recess twice a day, one classroom and teacher a year—but now with Junior High came new subjects, new classmates, and more homework. Nevertheless we realized that we were coming along in years and had reached an important stepping stone toward that far off graduation day. With the end of our Freshman year came the Junior High diplomas and many sighs of relief from all of us. Who will ever forget that night in ’39 when Cal Drake’s car groaned under the weight of many happy “Sophomores-to-be.” Soon again we trudged dutifully and expectantly back to school and m our various individual ways commenced to “study.” The year progressed under the guidance of Mrs. LaMoreaux and Mr. Geuder and others of the faithful staff. Our Sophomore Hop (although perhaps it shouldn’t be told) was a near flop, but we were young and all that we missed was our sleep. The close of this year brought about the end of Mr. John A. Beers’ long and successful principal-ship in “Old Watkins High”, and we knew well how keenly we would miss him. Moving ever closer to our goal, our Junior year offered much more than school to occupy our interests and time. In December came Pearl Harbor and the struggle to preserve democracy so that in future years other classes might have the privilege of sitting in our places. Despite distractions, Mr. Hertenstein, our new principal, succeeded well in keeping our minds on our work. The time came for the Junior Prom and we were lucky enough to be able to engage a Rochester orchestra which really served up quality “jive.” Due to adverse conditions, however, we had only a fair crowd and barely broke even. The Class of ’43 remembers with appreciation the kindness of Coach Blake, who, taking time from his regular duties, helped us with the decorations; likewise the assistance of Ken Auble, “Pop”, and Johnny George, though we’ll swear the last is a born pessimist. Finally the long awaited year approached. It is probable that in September every prospective Senior walked toward the school with a certain apprehension. Nevertheless the Seniors of ’43 entered the halls with spirits high and trod the newly waxed floor of the Study Hall, their homeroom for the year. Mr. Perry was continued as Class Adviser and the jovial Warren Baker was chosen president. We got off to a good start and thought well of ourselves. The year was to hold for us shadows as well as sunshine. Coming to school the morning of October 28th, we were shocked to learn of the death of one of our classmates, LaVerne Coykendall. LaVerne, active in sports and Grange affairs, was popular in school and out and his less was a hard blow to take. In accordance with local custom the school participated in the Halloween program arranged by the Village Fathers. The student body elected Daniel 15 THE ORACLE 1943 Odell and Norma Teemley king and queen of Halloween. They were both grand and stately, indeed, and held court for a memorable evening of fun. With November 3rd came turkey, mashed potatoes, squash and some coffee, or in other words, the Election Day Dinner. This turned out to be a huge success, due of course to our management (ahem!) and Mrs. Scanlon’s superb cooking. Whew! How fast the year seemed to go. December 29 found us at the Senior Ball with Ruth Cameron’s orchestra furnishing the necessary accompaniment to dancing feet. “Bake” Gunga” could be seen most any time dashing around with flashlight cameras (where’d you get the bulbs, boys?) while Jack Gurnett and Dick Warren very deftly, but sometimes not so accurately, threw the wraps around. About this time a new and distinguished organization was founded, the R. O. B. S., (Royal Order of You name it) with those eminent Seniors, Warren Baker, Daniel Odell (what again?) and Jack Bassett as charter members. Meetings were held in camera, and as yet not one secret has been divulged. The year glided on, and from the mouths of Seniors occasionally spouted fluent Shakespeare, Milton or Wordsworth, which is indicative of Mrs. Allen’s extraordinary ability to arouse our often sluggish minds and leave in them some of the finer things in life. Not to be omitted from our Senior annals is the night of February 19th when the Abbey Debate Speaking Contest took place, with Jean Martine walking off with top honors and Daniel Odell second place (say, this boy really gets around). In March came the casting for the Senior Play. Miss Tormey and Miss Coyle, two young and versatile members of the faculty, were chosen as directors. “Talented” students were selected for parts in the play “Our Girls.” The cast rehearsed diligently (?) with their tireless directors goading them on to new heights of dramatic achievement. Yet we had fun and after a particularly good practice Cal’s car might have been seen groaning again up to Chef’s Diner though (Oh they’ll kill us for this!) Miss Coyle and Miss Tormey probably hope it wasn’t. Too much credit can’t be given to Miss Coyle and Miss Tormey for their invaluable advice and splendid cooperation. (Pardon us! Mrs. McCarthy and Mrs. Cartwright—wonder if the play had anything to do with it?) Warren Baker and Carol Bishop turned in a very good performance as father and mother, as did Betty Overhiser, Jane Kelly and Dick Warren in their respective roles. Naturally we musn’t forget those cute “girls”. Jack Gurnett, Daniel Odell, and Jack Bassett, who really outdid themselves. Needless to say, the play was a big hit. Although we had been uncertain all year whether or not a Senior Trip would be possible, it was finally learned that we would go. We took off on April 26 with high anticipation. Predominant on the trip down were cameras, singing and meals in the dining car. What a life! Upon our arrival at the Continued on page 30 1C THE ORACLE 1943 NEW YORK TRIP 17 THE ORACLE 1943 CLASS JAMES WHITING — President FAITH BURRELL, Vice-President RUTH WERMAN, Treasurer JANE STORCH, Secretary JOHN LINGO, Business Manager MR. TIMMS — Class Adviser Once again on September first, the lofty portals of old W.G.H.S. were flung open to welcome back many young, industrious students. Among these an occasional Junior could be singled out and believe it or not, Kenny Givin, Gene Forrest and many other stragglers were on time. Friday, September 25, which was the date of class elections, finally arrived after much campaigning. The Junior election was held in Mr. Perry’s room under Mr. Geuder’s supervision. That certainly proved to be an exciting day and after the storm had blown over, it was found that a competent group had been chosen to fulfill the duties as officers of the Junior Class. Our first activity, the selling of Junior Wreaths, went over with a bang under the very able leadership of Bette Bates and Gene Forrest. Everywhere a Junior was seen with a sample over his arm, seeking some kind soul who would purchase a wreath. In the end, all over the town, our wreaths emphasized the Christmas spirit. Phyllis Jennings came out on top of the heap, selling in the vicinity of 100 wreaths. In November, Ruth Werman, Jimmy Whiting and Margie James undertook the task of organizing a school paper. After they had arranged the staff under Miss Viglione’s supervision, the paper was officially started under the name of “?”. Later the “Student Standard’’ was decided upon as a title. The paper has been coming out regularly ever since and has been a great success. The effects of the war have begun to present themselves to us. The first member of our class whom we lost to the armed forces was Sam Fazzary who has been attending school here for most of his school days. Jimmy Curran came only this last fall and joined the Navy in December. John Lingo who has at tended here since kindergarten, left soon after Easter vacation to join the Navy. 18 ORACLE 1943 THE OF ’44 Nick Franzese has gone to Auburn to a Machinist’s school. They are greatly missed and we send them the best of luck. The rest of us have been trying to do our bit by our weekly purchases of War Stamps. It would seem, according to Mr. Hertenstein’s weekly reports, that the Junior Class must have been the highest purchasers since Mrs. Allen’s Junior homeroom often topped the list. Due to the war and the resulting scarcity of men, we abandoned the formal Junior Prom this year. Instead, since the trend of the younger generation seems to be toward square dancing, we decided to have an old fashioned square dance at the Municipal Building on Friday night, May 28. After a hilarious evening, caused mostly by the fact that there were so many who had not as yet mastered the finer points of the art, we were glad to trod homeward. (Square dancing is a lot of work). We made much more on the dance than we had even dared anticipate and so can mark it down as an all around success. The Class of ’44 would like to express their gratitude and appreciation to the faculty for their interest and guidance. Also to the Class of ’43 we extend our sincerest wishes for success in the future. Page 18—FIRST ROW—Longstreet, Kuttner, Dean, Sydelko. Kaufman. King. Whiting:.

Bus. Mgr. WILLIAM ISLEY, Treasurer MR. MUNSON, Class Adviser The Sophomore Class activities started early in the year with the election of officers. You can just bet that we had some hot times at our election. You can’t beat the Sophomores for real, live politicians. If “Hunk” Weed doesn’t become another Jim Farley some day, we all will have missed our guess. The new officers immediately took on their robes of office after the election and the activities of the class began. The first class meeting was held in Mr. Harkness’ room one noon. At this meeting we decided to have a Sophomore Hop and also to take weekly dues. Committees were formed for the Hop and everybody began to get busy. (How Scoop Beardsley got the decorations is still a closely guarded secret). After working in school, after school and at night, things finally began to take shape, but with gas rationing and other handicaps, we were in doubt whether or not we could make a success of this, our main project of the year. At last the big night came, Nov. 20, 1942. Everybody had his fingers crossed and soon the people started pouring in and we knew that our Hop would be a huge success. Mr. and Mrs. Hertenstein and Mr. and Mrs. Munson kindly acted as chaperones. All who attended reported a good time. When the receipts were counted, it was found that we had made a clear profit of $35.69. Just wait Until we throw our Junior Prom! As everyone knows the sports activities of our school, outside of gym classes and intramural games, have been somewhat limited due to the war. Nevertheless the Class of ’45 was represented on the school’s basketball team by those two stars, Benny Nitche and Frank Macri. Both boys played well and the class is proud of them. The Sophomores have been working under a rather unusual situation this year in that our president, Nancy Adams, has been going to school in New York City since early in the year. In spite of this Nancy has faithfully kept 20 THE ORACLE 1943 OF ’45 in touch with the affairs of the class throughout the year. The only sad note in our Sophomore year was the death of Roger Holly, one of the school’s best students and loyal members. Roger was always ready to help out in any activity in which his help was needed. He is deeply missed by all his fellow class members. The Class of ’45 has contributed some of its talents to our school paper, “The Student Standard.” Frances Carland and Harry Freudenheim wrote the Sophomore reports, while Polly Stevens took care of the paper’s humor. All three did a splendid job. Although there were many other incidents, worthy of comment, space does not permit their mention. It suffices to say that the Class of ’45 will, on June 11, be wending its way home, a happier and more enlightened lot of students, looking forward to another year of fun and study as Juniors, with all the zest and pep for which the class is noted.

BLAKE — Class Adviser The Freshman class started quietly and ended with a bang. Many things happened during the year that showed that the Freshmen were an up and coming class. The Freshman boys showed outstanding talents in sports, especially basketball. One game to remember was the inter-class game between the Freshmen and Seniors. Although the Freshmen lost, the score being eleven to eight, they had given the Seniors a run for their score. The girls also showed outstanding talent in their sports. One of the hardest basketball games the girls played was against the Juniors. Those Juniors had a marvelous team, we admit, but it would have been fun to have played the Juniors again to see what the score would have been. For excuses out of this world the Freshman class showed unusual talent. Some of the most fantastic excuses were heard from such people as Ruth Ann Tuttle, Betty Petrosilla, and Helen Cooper. For the future Freshmen who may need an excuse, here are a few to choose from: had writer’s cramp, couldn’t get my locker open, forgot my locker number, blackout, my dog chewed up my paper, my mother usually fixes my hair for me but she went away and I spent all evening trying to fix my hair, I went to visit a friend and they didn’t have electricity there. We can be sure that the present Freshman class has many future Abbey Prize winners if the gift of talking is any indication. There are quite a few who someday might even become renowned orators. It wouldn’t take much practice. We have lost several members of our class and gained a few new members during the year. We are sorry that when we meet next September THE ORACLE 1943 OF ’46 that Katherine Tobey will not be with us and we all wish her and her family happiness and good luck in their new home. Now comes the highlight of the Freshman year. Field Day! It has always been a tradition that the Freshman class have a Field Day. This day usually consists of contests between the different classes. There is baseball, volley ball, archery and other games that require skill. This event takes place on June eleventh at the schoolhouse playgrounds. We anticipate the interest and support of the whole school and lots of fun. We probably won’t make very much money but it will be a thrill to be able to say the Freshman class put on the big Field Day of ’43. Let’s Go! The Freshman class extends congratulations to the graduating class and wishes them success in their future undertakings. We also thank all our teachers who have helped us so patiently throughout the year. Page 22—FIRST ROW—Hause, Rukat, Bartholomeo, Burrell, Brown, Possee, Morgan, Carlson, Eliot, Sehimizzl.

ATHLETICS This year our regular interscholastic program was seriously curtailed by the gasoline rationing. With transportation unavailable and a shortage of manpower, varsity football was dropped and with it one of our most promising teams. Varsity basketball suffered under the same conditions although we had occasion to win three of the six games we played. Intramural sports—touch football, basketball, volley ball and soft ball were stressed by Coach Blake with the result that a large number of interested students took part. Throughout the year, dual combat and an obstacle course were emphasized by Mr. Blake. This type of physical training, as used in the armed forces and at colleges and high schools throughout the nation to prepare soldiers and prospective soldiers for the rigors of battle, is taught to instill a fighting spirit. This is symbolized by the slogan, “When you have used your last ounce of energy, you still have one ounce more.” The obstacle course used in our gymnasium is similar to the so-called “commando” course. The different types of obstacles which have to be climbed over and under, jumped and dodged, vaulted or hurtled, are intended to give a good stiff workout to all of the bodily muscles, particularly to those that do not receive full exercise during the average day’s play. Dual combat is practiced with two opponents. It is a very mild dose of actual close-combat with the enemy. The difference is that in actual warfare, if you lose, you die. Here again the combatants are urged to keep fighting until their last-last ounce of energy is burned up. Near the close of the school year, a physical education demonstration program was held in which girls under the able supervision of Mrs. Cartwright demonstrated tumbling, pyramid building, Danish exercise, and marching, all of which were practiced throughout the year during regular gym periods in addition to intramural basketball, volley ball and soft ball. The boys under the excellent direction of Mr. Blake gave a very fine performance. Tumbling and mat work, dual combat, marching and the obstacle course comprised the program. Physical development is being emphasized more and more in the world today, for today physical and mental development go hand in hand. The mind and the body are interdependent. It is the fundamental aim of the physical education department to aid in the building and development of strong bodies for our students; in our school we are assured of adequate, thorough physical training under our capable directors. 26 ORACLE 1943 THE FRONT—Glvin, Burrell.

This is due very largely to the fine work of our talented teacher and director, Eugene A. Dimond. This is Mr. Dimond’s second year as the head of our band and in these two years he has done a wonderful job in developing the well balanced musical organization our school has today. The first important activity of the band this year was its participation in the parade to the fair grounds for the community Halloween party, along with other local bands and drum corps. Next came the Christmas assembly with the band taking a leading part. The band’s main activity was a Victory Concert given on March 12. The purpose of the concert was to promote the sale of war bonds and was sponsored by the Business and Professional Women’s Club. A 25c war savings stamp was the price of admission. Besides the regular pieces rendered by the band there were specialty numbers which included Bass Horn solos by Nick Franzese, vocal solos by Carol Bishop and a tap dance specialty by Bernita Blanchard and Rhoda Lilley. All who attended were pleasantly entertained by the fine music. The concert not only gave the band the satisfaction of having a large and appreciative audience but it also helped the country’s war bond drive. In February the band lost one of its most talented members, Roger Holly. He had a keen interest in music and the whole band misses his smiling face as the year grows to a close. Besides training and directing the senior band, Mr. Dimond has started a junior band comprised of students of the fourth to the eighth grades. Although some of the members of this band had been taking lessons only a few weeks, the junior band was presented to the public at the physical fitness demonstration on May 14. The band terminated its school year with a surprise “feed” given us by Mr. Dimond one Friday afternoon. After enjoying ice cream and cookies we had a square dance with Ken Givin doing the calling. So ended the activities of the Watkins Glen High School Band for the year 1943. Since Mr. Dimond has been called to service with the United States Army, the band has lost one of its most capable directors. We wish to extend our heartiest thanks for his untiring patience and effort. The best wishes of all the band members and the entire student body go with him in answering the call of his country. THE ORACLE 1943 FIRST ROW—Bishop. Dean, MacDougall, Bassett, Barile, Baker, Romeo, Dean, Kaufman. SECOND ROW—Ellison. Mathews, Mitchell, Smith, Bishop. Ellison, Morgan, Sherrer, Morgan, Miss Vickio. JUNIOR LIBRARY STAFF “The Junior Library Staff” was the name selected by the new members of the 1942-1943 library club. Under the direction of the Librarian, Miss Vickio, this club held weekly meetings during the noon hour in the high school library. Although the war and other activities seemed to deflect some of the member’s interest in club activities, nevertheless many interesting and worthwhile projects were successfully carried on during the year. In November, the Junior Library Staff conducted a Favorite Book Contest in which members only were eligible to enter. This contest consisted of 150 questions dealing with facts about biographies, novels, and short stories. The winner was Dean Mitchell who was presented by the Librarian with a copy of the book “See here, Private Hargrove.” John Bassett received honorable mention. Once during each month the members held a luncheon-business meeting in the library to discuss and plan future projects. Shortly before Christmas vacation a Christmas Party was held at the Municipal Building. Rose Del Rosso and Barbara Parile were co-chairmen. Each member was allowed to invite one friend. Dancing, games and a Treasure Hunt were enjoyed by all and the evening was pleasantly capped by the appearance of the Village Santa Claus who entertained the group for some time. In March the greatest project of all began—the National Book Drive for he armed forces—and the Club found time to give its share of effort toward helping the nation at war. The student body cooperated by bringing in books and these were collected and sorted by the members to be sent to the nearest book center. In addition to these projects, book reviews were held quite frequently during the year. These reviews were found to be both interesting and helpful to the student members. Everything considered, the Junior Library Staff deserves a great deal of merit for completing so successful a year. 28 THE ORACLE 1943 FIRST ROW—Morgan, Freudenheim, Stevens, F. Burrell, Smith, James, Martine, Car-land, Gurnett, Brown. SECOND ROW—Forrest, Whiting, Possee, Coolican, Baldwin. Ellison. L. Burrell, Storch, Baker, Jennings, Miss Viglione. STUDENT STANDARD The origin of the Student Standard has been credited to the Junior Class President, Jimmy Whiting. The idea began forming in his mind that the one thing W.G.H.S. needed was a school paper. After a good deal of discussion and planning, a small temporary staff was chosen. Soon a group of students representing the seventh grade to the Senior year was gathered into a complete paper staff. The main problem that faced the students was what should be put into this paper. As it was generally agreed that too much scandal was bad, a limit was put on those newsy items. The main divisions were laid out after a good deal of planning; two editorial pages, two pages for class news, one page each of humor, quizzes, fashions, popular music and sports, and one page written by our principal. For the first two editions the paper was called The Question Mark since there was as yet no name chosen for it. A contest was held in which the students sent in their favorite names for the paper. Joe Butterazzi’s “The Student Standard” was chosen and has been the name used throughout this year. With the approval of Mr. Hertenstein, Miss Viglione was chosen as the faculty adviser. Her patience and help steered the paper through many a crisis. Mr. Hertenstein agreed to mimeograph the paper at no additional cost to the staff. All paper and stencils were purchased through the office. The last copy of the paper was printed by Mr. Piper and this edition was particularly well received by the students. The first edition of The Student Standard was a complete success, every copy being sold. At each succeeding sale all but a few of the papers were sold. The paper fund rapidly increased and $10 of this money was given to the March of Dimes in the middle of the s hool year. Ai the end of tne year over $10 was left in the treasury as clear profit. It is expected that the paper will be continued next year, with this year’s profits as a starting fund. This paper is a medium through which the student can voice his opinions and develop his talents. As it has proved very popular with the student body, this year’s staff hopes that this paper will be permanent and become a tradition in Watkins Glen High School. 29 THE ORACLE 1943 CLASS HISTORY CONTINUED Lincoln Hotel the windows were locked, the towels stored away and all non-stationary objects removed. (Oh don’t get me wrong, I don’t mean by the maids, uh! uh!) We saw the Statue of Liberty (where Clinton forgot where his stomach was), the R. C. A. building (where Mr. Perry sadly relinquished his hat for photographing), “Arsenic and Old Lace’’ (where Jack Bassett revealed his ignorance by emitting the most gruesome horse laughs), and Chinatown (where Odell became engrossed in $5 suits). Then there were radio broadcasts, Radio City Music Hall and the night before our departure the “Stars on Ice.” Mr. and Mrs. Perry and Mr. and Mrs. Blake, our chaperons, did everything in their power to keep our minds on educational pursuits but it seems we frequently had other intentions. Despite some apparent difference in ideas of the chaperons and the chaperoned, everyone had a marvelous time,—especially Beverly Waite and Sophie Magura and Martha Morgan and Jack Dempsey—I mean Gurnett—and—well, all the rest of us and the chaperons too, I guess. A private car on the back of the train was obtained exclusively for our group for the trip home and we made the most of it. Several incidents stand out such as the lipstick episode, the hotfoot campaign, and Mr. Blake’s marvelous acting. It was a fitting conclusion to an enjoyable trip. Back home again we sorrowfully resumed poring over books—American foreign relations, English classics, French idioms, chemistry formulas. Regents and graduation were near at hand. We sought some diversion in “George” (our beloved Model A) but Prentiss Brown heard about it and cracked down with a pleasure ban. So it is now with adequate knowledge—we hope—and memories galore that we come to the last days of our high school years. Ahead is an unknown and confused future which, we are sure, will be met with fearless eye and stalwart heart by the Class of ’43. 30 THE ORACLE 1943 OUR SCHOOL AT WAR Watkins Glen High School has continued this year its participation in the “Schools at War” program. A scrap book depicting our part in the war effort has received national recognition and the school will receive a certificate of merit from Secretary Morgenthau. Our participation in the war effort has been varied and has included both the faculty and the student body. Our health department, with Mrs. Miller in charge, has undertaken eighty hours of Red Cross Nurse’s Aide instruction to volunteers. These volunteers are taught the rudiments of nursing so that they may be able to help relieve the critical nursing shortage. In the industrial arts department, under the supervision of Mr. George, over one hundred model air craft were made and sent to the Navy Department for use in naval aviation instruction. Miss Turner in the homemaking department instructed a Victory Food Class, Red Cross Nutrition Classes and Canteen Courses. The National Book Drive for books for soldiers was sponsored in our school by the Library Club, directed by Miss Vickio. Over five hundred books were turned in and relayed to the nearest book center. Miss Parker and the art department aided in this drive by making posters. A report from Mr. Munson shows that over seven hundred student school days were devoted to farm work during the past school year, thus giving important aid in agricultural production. In addition to participation in several air raid drills, our students bought over $8500 of war stamps in the past school year. Last fall our students enrolled in the Junior Red Cross with contributions amounting to $82 75. A physical demonstration and concert brought this year’s total to $168. Many of our sudents and several members of the faculty are to be congratulated for their fine work on the Junior Red Cross Newspaper “News From Home” sponsored by the Schuyler County Chapter American Red Cross for men and women from Schuyler County now serving in the armed forces in the fight for freedom and democracy.
