Nearly everyone in the class is here for the reunion tomorrow. Dorothy Baker and Clifford Lott are sitting there in the first booth. They have been happily married for 8 years now, and have two sets of twins. Sylvia Mathews and Paule just came in to join them—they have a large farm just this side of Burdctt. Jean Bush and Joyce Cope, who are big-time stenos in New York City, have landed their helicopter on Main Street and are waiting for Jean Fredrick to appear. Jean is the chief pilot for Trans-World Airlines now, and has just come in from France in time for the reunion. Beverly Martin, Jerry Blanchard, Barbara Burnett, Erma Rathbun and Rose Saraceni occupy the next booth. Beverly is an outstanding photographer for Life Magazine—did you see her series on our own Grand Prix? Jerry and Barbara are waiting for the U.S. Navy to dock, while Erma and Rose are counting pennies. They have the drinking fountain concession in the Washington Zoo. Across the room Anna Jean, Ann Landry and Danny, Annie Barber, Rosemary Marcellino, Kay Tallarida, Helen Suits and Louie Del Rosso are crowded into a booth. Anna Jean has been teaching grade school all these years, Ann drives a racer on the Indianapolis Speedway and Danny is her mechanic. Rosemary is the dean of women at RBI. Annie still loves the blonde in the bell-bottomed trousers. She’s got him for keeps now and they just got back from Niagara Falls. Kay is head nurse at Willard. Helen and Louie look just as young as when they graduated. Life with Luigi, you know! Emily Mead, Nancy Brubaker, and Pat Kelley are in the last booth in the center row. Em had a little trouble getting here on time. An accomplished actress on Broadway, she has her wish to be famous. Her millionaire husband and their ten kids are waiting for her in that cream colored 14 Jaguar you saw at the curb on the way in. Pat is the model homemaker for some Jimmy—she decided long ago teaching was not for her. Nancy had no trouble getting here, she runs Seneca Lodge now, with an efficient hand, I’m told. f saw Pat O’Dea, Tommy Viglione, Bcrle Arthurs, Le Roy Hurd and Gerald Crandall outside the door when I came in. Pat conducts tours through the Bureau of Engraving and directs all the Seniors to holler, “L-e-e-R-o-o-y”, which has become a tradition. Tommy, Le Roy, and Berle have bought the arcades in Washington and are making a fortune on the Senior classes visiting there. Gerald is still carving “Gerald plus Nancy” on the trees. After all these years, she is still a little hesitant. Joan Biever and Art Richards couldn’t make the reunion, they are still out to sea. Both are Admirals now, you know. Janice Tripp is another member who is missing. She is still in Africa, converting the natives. Jean Smyder and Scappy are here though, and Mary Ann Mathews and Monty Stamp. They are in the booth right behind the juke box. Scappy has graduated from delivery boy to head clerk in his father’s store, Jean has taken over the book-keeping department. Monty Stamp is still working on the farm and Mary Ann is still waiting for him. She just can’t see getting up at 5 o’clock in the morning! Leslie Murray is here, he’s still handing the girls a line and they’re still swallowing it hook, line and sinker. A big black limousine just pulled up in front, Allison Webster and Don Bauman are getting out. Don has finally gotten out of the Army, Allison is a famous prize-fighter, having won the middle-weight championship two months ago. Jim Henderson’s Cadillac follows. He has a large mink farm between Watkins and Montour, remember where the swamp used to be? He gives all his girls mink coats now. Frank Pastore who owns Frank’s Clothing Store, is here. Frank is his own best customer, he’s dressed as snazzy as ever. John Viglione is attempting the impossible, he could not be with us either. He’s in South America, planning a bridge from the tip of South America to the tip of Africa, for those who wish to drive across the Atlantic. David Cartmell is here, of course, an easy trick for him. His place of business is right next door. He bought out Thompson's way back in 1959 and is busy expanding the store for the third time. Bob Symes is with Dave, Carol couldn’t come. Bob is a five-star General in 15 short years! Betty Wood, Shirley Arcangeli and Marjorie Swarthout occupy a booth near the center of the room. Shirley and Lenny drive taxi-cabs in Baltimore, Marjorie is a famous lawyer in Hollywood. Betty’s occupation is a secret, but 1 hear from a pretty reliable source that she is an agent for the FBI. Norma Usher, Jean Strong, Virginia Shannon, Mary McAnarney, Mary Wager, Lola Anne Powers and Fay Mickel are in the booth directly ahead of them. Norma. Jean, and Virginia are just in from Maine, they say the scenery is better up there. Lo, and behold, Mary McAnarney teaches driving these days! Every morning from 9-12 the residents of Watkins Glen take to the hills. Mary Wager is a leading sportscaster over CBS. Currently she is broadcasting the Cleveland Indians’ games, but took a few days off for the reunion. Lola Anne and Fay have decided to retire from the teaching profession. Lola has married a Texas oil-man and owns a big ranch out West, and Fay has Primo. The last arrivals to the Sweet Shoppe are Lela Scaptura and Julia Richardson. They are still giving Buddy and Tony a hard time, but are beginning to think seriously of setting a double-wedding date soon. As I leave the smoke-filled room and gaze at the star lit sky, I think back over these 15 years. Gee, it seems like only this afternoon was moving-up day! 15 Class Will 1953 Arthurs, Berle — Leaves his footsteps to Primo Schimizzi. Arcangeu, Shirley — Leaves the school, to anyone.

Little did she or our future teachers know what they were getting into. There were two events which we remember better than others during our first six years. First, Mr. Beers, our principal retired, and second, a Junior Police Patrol was organized with two of our boys as the first leaders. In 1947 we felt very important as we entered seventh grade. We were finally passing to classes. For the first time graduates of the Burdett Grade School entered W.G.C.S. as seventh graders instead of as Freshmen. 1949 and we were finally Freshmen. Our first step was to elect officers. Our leaders were DelRosso, Cart-mell. Scaptura, DeDominicis and Mr. Blake. The next big step in our career was initiation by the Seniors. At the dance we held in their honor, we were tried and naturally found guilty. At Easter time we had a dance appropriately named the “Bunny Hop”. After the moving-up ceremonies on Class Day we had a successful Field Day. We closed the door on a pleasant Freshman year with our class picnic at Taughannock Falls. We started our Sophomore year with the election of the following officers: DelRosso, Baker, Kelley and Mickel. Again Mr. Blake was to advise us. Our first dance of the year was called “April Showers” in honor of the month and the weather. In June our second year of high school drew to a close, as we held our class picnic at Enfield. In the fall of 1951, we entered these halls as Juniors. Our officers were DelRosso, Kelley, Smyder, Stamp, and Mr. Blake. The first school activity was the Sadie Hawkins Dance. Christmas time, wreathes and RINGS! We decided to be different and chose what is known as the college style. They arrived just in time for Christmas —what a present! To increase our funds before the Junior Prom we decided to introduce a new activity—a roller skating party on our own gym floor. May—and the Prom. We called it “Blossom Time”. The year was fast drawing to a close and in preparation for graduation day we spent a day picking daisies and making the traditional Daisy Chain. On graduation night we followed another tradition and put on the Alumni Banquet with the help of our mothers. The class picnic this year was again held at Enfield. At last we had reached the peak in our high school career, but we were saddened, too by the loss of one of our classmates, Peter Landsberg. Election results showed the big man in the Senior Class to be DelRosso, with his able assistants Cartmell, Baker, and Barber. Art Richards was again elected Business Manager, an office he held throughout our high school years; and our class advisor was again Mr. Blake. Our first project was the selling of Grand Prix programs. For two days we were kept busy with this big job. Then to prove our superiority, we initiated the Freshmen. At the dance which we held for them we gave them a trial which was even worse then the one received by us when we were Freshmen. Presidential elections were making headlines when we began making plans for our Election Day Dinner. Again with the help of our mothers we made this dinner a big success. Our big opportunity to show our super salesmanship came with the magazine sales. Pat Kelley and Dave Cartmell were the captains of the teams, with Pat’s team coming out on top in sales. Then the event which marked the halfway point of our Senior year—the Senior Ball. The name decided upon was the “Crystal Ball” with the decorations really living up to the name, for we had a huge crystal ball in the center of the dance floor revolving and reflecting various colors. Our next important event was the Senior Play, “Stranger in the Night”. The lucky ones who were finally chosen by Director Bill Kelly and Mrs. Roberts were: Monty Stamp, Pat Kelley, Art Richards, Helen Suits, Dave Cartmell, Fay Mickell, Allison Webster, Emily Mead, Joan Biever, Louie DelRosso, Lola Anne Powers, and Virginia Shannon. Of course, a great many others helped, among them Anna Jean DeDominicis, who prompted, and Rosemary Marcellino, who headed the ushers. Then came the thing we had been waiting and earning for since our Freshman year—THE TRIP. Oh; the memories! The boat—those large (?) staterooms! Then Washington! The Huston Hotel!—those crowded rooms, especially 708! The Lotus Club—what a floor show—right, Helen and Louie? All the broken or dismantled furniture. “Let’s go downstairs and have a party”. There’s a lot more, but we don’t have room enough here to tell about it. That’s about it. With June here, the Class of ’53 will leave these hallowed halls, never to return as a class. In closing, we wish to thank all the wonderful teachers who have put up with us for so long and have guided us so excellently through the formative years of our lives. We realize that our gratitude is not enough to repay them for all they have done for us, but we hope that it may help in some way to make up for all the trouble we have caused them. 17 Serna Class of JUNIOR CLASS Fifth Row: Landry, Rowlcs, Fredericks.

When W.G.C.S. opened its doors on THAT day in September, most everyone was there waiting anxiously for classes to begin. After the novelty of being back in school again began to wear off, we started to take inventory on how things looked this year. We found most of our Juniors in either Mrs. Allen’s or Miss Sployd’s homerooms. Class elections! At last they were over with James Paradiso coming out as President. Judie Brown followed as the “Veep” and Helen Marie Green and Donna Ely as secretary and treasurer respectively. Mary Lou Conte, managed all business affairs and our ever faithful class advisor, Mr. Elliott was again in charge. The class officers were soon appointed as committee to decide on a design for our rings and made their choice, much to everyone’s pleasure except the parents’, as the rings arrived just before Christmas. Our next project was the Sadie Hawkins dance which as usual was held in November with Tommy Meehan and Elizabeth Haughey being crowned King and Queen. We had a lot of fun both before and at the dance and we enlarged our bank roll to a great extent. With the holiday season came the annual Christmas wreath sales and until all deliveries were made, we had Mr. Stillman fairly buzzing. Wherever you looked you could see a Junior scurrying along loaded down with green boughs and red ribbons. 20 1954 JUNIOR CLASS Fifth Row: Amos, Usher, Symes, DeNardo, Vaughn. Fourth Row: Kellogg, Cleveland, Andrews, G. Bond, T. Bond, Powers. Third Row: Morris, Speary, Cummings, Murphy, Van Deusen, Whaugh, Mr. Elliott—Class Advisor.

Before too long Judie Brown was elevated to President of her class. So with ail officers straightened out we proceeded to make plans for the Second Annual Talent Show. This proved to be very profitable for the Junior Class and a lot of fun for everyone. Now the big talk is about the Junior Prom which, as this goes to press, is in the making. We have had several meetings and have decided on the theme of “Springtime in Paris.” The Junior Class has also been active on the sports agenda, with many players helping the football team on to victory. Several of these same boys helped the basketball team also and we wish to congratulate them on a fine job. And now that spring is here, we have several Junior boys playing baseball and doing quite well. There were several girls who cheered these boys on to victory and they did a fine job. We have had two Junior class members on the Student Standard. There are several band, orchestra, glee club and mixed chorus enthusiasts in our class too. Several girls have taken part in Mrs. Stillman’s library club and Miss Turner’s F.H.A. also. Now as we near the end of our Junior year in high school, we find ourselves worrying about Regents but eagerly anticipating next fall when we hope to return as Seniors. We wish to express our congratulations and best wishes to the class of ’53 and wish them the best of luck in every future endeavor. 21 Class of SOPHOMORES Fifth Row: Dean, Davis, Bauman, Crancc, Margan, Booth, Hayte, Cope.

Our first step was to elect officers to lead us through the year and the results were: Kent Fitch as President; Vice President, Jackie Carrigan; Secretary, Margie Viglione; and Gwen Updykc, Treasurer. Everyone was pleased when Mr. Fetterman was again selected to be Class Advisor. Our first project, which was handed down to us by the Juniors, was to manage the refreshment stand throughout the basketball season. It was a lot of work. Progress set in when we began to plan and form committees for our first social activity, “The Holiday Hop” on December 12. The committees worked very hard on advertising and decorating to make the dance the big success it proved to be. Spring came and with it our second dance, which, after much thought, was entitled “April Showers”. We all worked hard, and as a result, everyone had a good time. 22 1955 SOPHOMORES Fifth Row: Hall, Bush, Wcnban, Shepard son, LeSure, Vanderhoof, Simmons, Auble.

Some of the class mothers worked in the kitchen, and the girls acted as waitresses. The class took on another project this year—that of selling basketball pins, which went over very well and made a big jump in our treasury. Our Class has been well represented in school activities. Sophomores have been seen everywhere on the athletic field—on the teams, leading cheers, in the stands, (and selling hot dogs.) Many in our class have shown musical ability in the Junior and Senior Bands, Mixed Chorus, and Glee Club. We wish to thank Gwen Updyke for reporting the Sophomore news to the Student Standard. The Sophomores send out their warmest thanks to the faculty for enlightening us, putting up with our pranks, and being swell sports about it throughout the year. Each and every one of the Sophomores sincerely want to thank Mr. Fetterman for advising us throughout a successful year. The Class of ’55 sends congratulations and best wishes to the out-going Seniors and hopes that they will be successful in the careers they have chosen. 23 Class of FRESHMEN Fifth Row: Hatfield, O'Livncck, Martin, Elliot, Scholtiseck, Switzer, Houck, Dean.

On September 7, 1952 the class of ’56 entered the large study hall. With a huge class of a 120 even we overcame the confusion and acquainted ourselves with new teachers and studies. During the second week of school the Freshman class assembled in the study hall for election of officers. After much debating the following officers were elected: President, Gail Harkness; Vice-President, A1 Woodward; Secretary, Judy Chapman; Treasurer, Katy Herr; and Class advisor Miss Line. We were firmly settled in our daily routine when we learned we were to be initiated by the superior Seniors. On the day of initiation we came to school dressed as we had been instructed to by the Seniors. In spite of the oversized bows of the boys and the mismatched shoes we survived the day, for the dance at night. There we were tried, found guilty, and punished. Both the Junior and Senior bands have taken in many Freshmen. The more talented ones became members of the school orchestra, glee club and mixed chorus. 24 1956 FRESHMEN Fifth Row: Ward, Schofner, Caslin, Howell, Friends, Schouten, Jones, Harvey.

Grace Wager, Rena Fra-boni, Mary Paradiso and Paul Phelps keep the Student Standard informed of our activities. After Christmas vacation plans for our first dance were started. After much discussion “Snowflake Shuffle” became the name of the big event. After three weeks of hard labor our dance took place on the night of January 22. Our first enterprise was a big success and a large profit was made. As the year draws to an end we all are looking forward to our last event, the dance held in the Seniors’ honor on Class Day. The Freshman class wishes to thank Miss Line for her help and guidance through our first year of high school. We wish to express our thanks to the teachers who have helped us through the year and kept us on the right track. The whole Freshman class wishes the Seniors good luck and happiness in whatever their future may be. 25 Class of 1957 N o Class of 1958 Student Standard Sitting: Powers, Tallis, Fraboni, Mead, Kelley, Brown, Haughey, Marcellino.

Thanks to our very capable musical directors, Miss Denson, choral leader, and Mr. Bailey, band leader, the musical department of Watkins Glen Central School has run very smoothly this past year. The Senior Band started the year out right by playing for the home football games. Then along came Parent’s Night on November 12, when the Senior Band, Mixed Chorus, and Glee Club made a good showing. The Music Department again was busy at Christmas time—the Senior Band. Mixed Chorus, and Glee Club took part in the annual Christmas program. With the basketball season, two more sections of our musical system were brought to light—the pep band which played during home games, and the recently developed school orchestra, which played for dances after the games. In January, as has become custom, a part of the band traveled to another school—Dundee this year— to join Dundee and Penn Yan in a Massed Band Concert. Later in the year, on May 1, the Junior and Senior Bands presented a program here at the school. The Junior Band, which has about 70 members, did very well. The Senior Band also made a good showing. Just about the last important event in the music year will take place on May 23, when the Glee Club and several soloists will travel to Cortland to represent the school at the NYSSMA music festival. We who arc leaving wish to express our appreciation to Miss Denson and Mr. Bailey for their leadership in the musical part of our lives here at W.G.C.S. 30 Mixed Chorus 1st row: Murphy, Doanc, Ha ire, Lc Shurc, Vandcrhoof, Shcpardson, Saracini, Rathbun. 2nd row: Symcs, Hurd, Compcse, Rowlcs, Smalley, Fitch. 3rd row: S.

Viglionc 34 Intramural Sports A new sport that came to our school less than 3 years ago has proved very popular. This, of course, is bowling, which is limited to the girls. High scores during the past were made by Blake, DeDominicis, Barber, and Tallis. This year the list is topped by Fraboni, Viglione, and Updyke. Bowling is taught to the Junior High as well as Senior High. High scores among them are R. Angelo, Richardson, Magee, and Potter. In Senior High Basketball, we had four teams—one from each class. Names for the teams were chosen along with the captains; and the final standing of each team is shown below: Name Captain Won Lost Senior Glow-worms J. Biever 2 1 Junior Jugglers M. Conte 3 0 Sophomore Shots R. Crego 2 1 Flashy Frosh M. Cole 2 1 Since there were three ties, the Sophomores and Freshmen played each other to see who would be champion between the two. The three teams (Seniors, Freshmen, and Sophomores) drew straws to see who played each other. The Freshmen beat the Sophomores; therefore they were scheduled to play the Seniors. That’s where they met defeat. This left the Seniors as champs. Name Captain Won Lost Basketball Hotshots K. Herr 2 3 Devil Dribblers G. Wager 2 4 Gym Trotters M. Viglione 2 4 Dribble Drips M. Conte 3 3 Senior Spitfires J. Strong 51 0 In January, when the boys’ basketball intramurals were well under way, Thorpe and O’Dell were tied for top honors in the A division. In the B division, it was Crandall way out in front. But as the playoffs drew near, the tide turned, Cartmell and Ames won the divisional honors and Cartmcil also went on through in a fine show to win the championship. The 1953 varsity season at Watkins Glen Central opened with many vacant positions to be filled. As we look at the team, we see Joe Compese catching, Tom Harrison at first, Dick Moran at second, Don Franzese playing short, Tony Schimizzi playing third, completing the infield. Looking further out we see Jim Scaptura, Bob Webster and Ralph DePew dominating the outfield, while Les Vaughn and Bruce Cummings are warming up in the bull pen. With these prospects, I'm sure we can look forward to a successful season. There was a good turnout to welcome the intramural volleyball season. There were enough boys to make three divisions of four teams each. Richards won the A division title, while Cummings and Hazlitt won in the B and C divisions respectively. In the first game of the playoffs, Cummings was eliminated. In the second game Hazlitt was dropped, leaving Richards with the championship. 35 Varsity Football—1952 WATKINS GLEN. . . . 6 WAVERLY. . . .62 tt it . 0 HORSEHEADS... .19 c (( 0 EDISON. . . .44 it « 0 BATH. .. .46 u ( 0 ATHENS. . . .33 ( (( 41 PAINTED POST. . .34 tt tt 0 OWEGO. . .33 Varsity Basketball—'52-'53 WATKINS GLEN. . . .56 1 RUMANSBURG. . . .63 cc a .79 ODESSA. . . .57 a tt .35 WAVER LY. . . .68 a 44 WELLSBORO. . . .48 a (( .74 EDISON. . . .68 a a 48 BATH . . .55 a a .46 OWEGO . .105 a tt .66 TRUMANSBURG. . . .52 a a .67 HORSEHEADS. . . .73 a tt .61 DUNDEE. . . .38 a a .58 WELLSBORO .. .72 u tt .67 WAVERLY. ...81 tt a 85 .
