CLASS HISTORY The members of the Class of ’60 took a big step in the world in September, 1947, when, as little tykes, they invaded Miss Abbott’s kindergarten. Because of their great ambition, this group of youngsters was able to get through the first six grades of school. They initiated the new Elementary School before entering the seventh grade. After getting adjusted to the system of passing to classes, the Class of ’60 forged ahead to the eighth grade Regents and moved up to the third floor. The Class of '60 elected the following officers for their freshman year: Walt Emmons, president: Tom Weed, vice-president; Lettie Babcock, secretary; Lindford Freese, treasurer; and Bill Paradiso, business manager. Favored by a majority vote, Mr. Jerry Gregory was soon persuaded to advise the Class of ’60 on how to get to Washington. The Class of ’60 put on their first dance, entiled “Winter Wonderland,” on January 25, 1957. Although the class put its best foot forward, they were only able to add $11.60 to their treasury. However, on its next project, the Senior-Faculty basketball game, the class made a tremendous profit of over $100. On March 29, “Record Rhapsody” enlarged the treasury with $40. to bring the grand total for the year to $156.33. Returning to W.G.C.S. in September, 1957, Walt, Lettie, and Bill were accompanied by Bob Mead and Georgia LaPre, newly elected vice-president and treasurer, respectively. As sophomores the class was placed in charge of the refreshment stands at basketball games and also had jurisdiction over the sale of basketball pins. On November 27 the class worked hard to make its first dance of the year, entitled “Turkey Trot,” a big success. Their efforts were rewarded, and $95. was added to the class bank account. At their next dance, held on March 28, there was a decline in business and “March Mist” only realized $40. profit. However, the sophomores washed a lot of cars on May 17, and were able to earn $70. The following year saw Bob Mead as president, Steve La Moreaux, vice-president; Lettie Babcock, secretary; Georgia LaPre, treasurer; and Sue Smith and Dick Ely cobusiness managers. The juniors were busy with many projects this year. No sooner had they put on the Election Day Dinner than the juniors found that their class rings had arrived. A few weeks later, when the juniors were finally able to calm down, they announced their Sadie Hawkins dance, to be held on November 21. Soon after this event, in December, 1958, the juniors were found hard at work helping Mr. LaPre with Christmas wreaths. This project added the huge sum of over $800 to the class treasury. The Spring of the year saw the junior’s door-to-door stationery campaign successfully waged. On May 22, 1959, the class invited all to attend their Junior Prom, “Oriental Splendor.” After spending the day decorating the gym, the juniors attended the great event and saw Jim Chedzoy and Joanne Church crowned king and queen of the dance. The Alumni Banquet and the Daisy Chain, on June 27, ended the school year, building the treasury higher. When the Seniors returned to school in September, 1959, they found that they were missing their class president, Bob Mead, who had moved to Buffalo. They, therefore, decided to move Pat Gage, their vice-president, up to the presidency and elected Walt Emmons to the vice-presidency. Other class officers were Lettie, Georgia, Dick, and Marcia Miller, newly elected co-business manager. The Class of ’60. now more energetic than ever, and anxious to achieve its goal, sold Glen Classics, Grand Prix, and Formula Libre programs. The sale of the Grand Prix Programs alone netted $1000 to add to the class treasury. November once again proved to be a busy month for the Class of ’60. Projects were the Election Day Dinner, November 3; the taking of Senior pictures, November 12 thru 13; the Senior Play, November 25; and the sale of magazines. Marcia Miller and Dick Ely were appointed captains of the magazine drive and aroused the spirit of their two teams. The annual Senior Ball was put on December 26. After working hard on the Talent Show, held on April 1, the seniors looked forward to the Senior trip. They finally had achieved their goal and now set out for Washington, D. C. From April 18 through the 22nd, the Seniors were on their own! With Class Day and Graduation over, the Class of ’60 faces the complications of our modern world. Its members have great hopes for the future, but whatever the future might have in store, the members of the Class of ’60 will look back on the past with fond memories. 27 CLASS WILL Marion Ameigh leaves her beautiful, long hair to anyone who is fortunate enough to have it.

CLASS WILL PROPHECY Ten years have passed since graduation, and I am standing in the lobby of Fran-zese’s Motor Court watching the members of the Class of 1960 coming in for their first reunion. Bill Davis enters first. Bill is slowly attaining his ambition to play baseball. He is waterboy for the Yanks. Tom Weed has had a better streak of luck. He is center on the Boston Celtics. He has had enough of sitting on the bench. Not to be outdone in the sports field are Ron Pierce, Bob Orms-bee, and Bill Paradiso. Ron is now a baseball star, while Bob is noted for his basketball talents. Billy is manager of the Colts with Lindy Freese as his star player. Georgia LaPre is coach of an all-female baseball team. Their ambition is to enter the World Series. Henry Scholtisek has a profitable business concern which deals with matching car paints and hair dyes. Naturally, Lettie Babcock is his wife and secretary. Linda Schouten, whose greatest desire was to become a model, has recently accepted a job modeling parkas in the Russian Ukraine. Barbara Chase is still doing things she shouldn’t do, and is now president of the “I Wish I Could Change Club.” There hasn’t been a successful member yet. Susan Smith finally gave up waiting for a certain person to ask her a certain question. She is now an active member of a lonely hearts club in Greenwich Village. Meanwhile, Marcia Miller is making good use of her ability to exaggerate by writing stories for “Confidential.” Lois White and Rose Simmons were quiet when I went to school. Oh! How they’ve changed! They are now leaders of opposing labor unions and their outcries are front page news all the time. Sandy Frycek and Ross O’Harra finally worked out their love problems; reconciled now for four years, they are a very happy couple. Nancy Grover’s argumentative spirit used to ge the best of her in history class, especially when the Monroe Doctrine was the subject of debate. She has gone to South America to see what it’s all about. Patty Gage is now head of Max Factor in Hollywood, and claims Yul Brynner isn’t any balder than Jigger! Pat Hoagland and Joan Rouse married their saliors, and now await anixously for the ships to come in. Jim Wood is now being heralded by the world as Picasso II and Dave Strong has taken over from where Rembrandt left off. Ron Dunbar is editor of Mad magazine with Richard Wilbur as his feature writer. Ken Matthews has been lost for years in Outer Space, and meanwhile his buddy, Severne Johnson, is the world’s biggest supplier of “them big hairy leaves.” Chuck Haramis is in the Air Force now, and after five years is finally out of basic training. John Arcangeli and Jim Chedzoy are still playboys with six marriages each. Sandy Arcangeli has finally bought the horse of her dreams, Trigger. Rick Bell now operates a reducing salon here in Watkins Glen with Marion Ameigh as director of women’s activities. Jack Miller is running Arthur Murray’s Studio in Elmira, while Jim Cooper has joined the Foreign Legion to get away from his harem. Jim Reale is in Hollywood; and is the hottest property there. Dick Powers runs a private school with Padua as its biggest rival. Jake Emmons has just won the “Fattest Man in the World” contest, and Dick Pike operates the Mercury Dealership here in Watkins Glen. Edna Rappleye owns a mascara factory using herself as chief saleswoman. Bill Beard and David Beckhorn are in the Army serving in Hollywood on secret business. Carol Moore is on stage now, and the other night during a scene, she opened a window seat and found a corpse. Pat Nandelstadt runs a beauty parlor with Nancy King modeling her latest hair styles. Ken Matthews has been lost for years Word has it that, although Carol Daus was voted the world’s best flirt, she just might give up this hobby and marry Bob; while Alan Personius has also gained world reknown as the leading male star of French movies. We are proud of Gerrie Yanch, even if she doesn’t come home often, because she is so busy keeping her concert engagements. As Gerrie says, “What is life without music?” 30 Jo Ann Church has been active in youth work. Through her efforts, every school in New York State has a drag strip. Dick Ely is her business manager, but is unable to attend our reunion because of a recent accident. We have heard George Berry and John Dmgledein are in jail. They insisted they could make a hydrogen bomb capable of destroying only a small area. They exploded the bomb in the building they were working in. Anne Miller, the janitor, said it was quite an explosion, and of course it made her job a lot harder. Gail Parks, owner of a Las Vegas nightclub, is really quite thrifty. She is her own waitress, cigarette girl, and featured attraction. Candy Johnson has gained cosmetic reknown, being the only person to find a cure for freckles. John Merrill was offered Liberace’s spot on television, but on the way to rehearsal he tripped and broke his front teeth; thus, he had to refuse the position, because he couldn’t smile. Don Duane, who started as a paperboy, is now owner of a large newspaper chain, and is famed for his actions as a millionaire playboy. John Leidenfrost may not be getting rich, but he is happy at last. He is the only male seamstress in a dress factory. Majorie Kelly, Helen Lachut, and Elsie LaFever are floating in the Waves with their sailor friends. Phyllis Molteni, Marge Smith, Fran Schimizzi, and Sharron Soule have been voted “The World’s Most Efficient Secretaries.” Congratulations! Many of my classmates looked to education as their calling. Barb Teemley is happy teaching music at W. G. C. S. Pam Smith teaches Latin at St. John’s, and Alice Bond has taken over for Miss Conrad. Phyllis Hollenbeck and Susan Hoy have taken over for Mrs. Roberts and Miss Haughey in the W. G. C. S. Commercial Department. Donna Shoemaker’s only love is still her horse, but she finds time for other animals, since she is now a leading veterinarian. Sandy Harper and Steve LaMoreaux are now “Mr. and Mrs.” and Sandy drives Steve’s truck while he tends to business at the store. Last but not least is David Harvey, who is now owner of one of the biggest farms in the U. S. A. This has been an interesting and successful reunion and everyone is looking forward with great anticipation to our next reunion. SENIOR PLAY CREW Row 1: C. Daus, W. Emmons, R. Ormsbee, M. Miller.

FOG ISLAND This past year, the Senior play was “Fog Island.” This mystery play was presented for the student body on the morning of November 25, 1959 and again that night for the community. The class is very grateful to the play’s director, Mr. Steber, and to Mrs. Roberts, who helped with the makeup. 32 CLASS OF 1961 Juniors agree that, thus far, their third year in high school has been the best yet. The class of ’61 started the year happily in the staging of the Sadie Hawkins” Dance. A record sale of Christmas wreaths and the arrival of class rings made the Yule-tide season merry. A dance in February was the prelude to an unforgettable Junior Prom. The class ended the year as host to the departing Seniors at the Annual Alumni Banquet. Members of the Class of ’61 believe that next year will be even more exciting. Row 1: Argetsinger, Sec.; J. Paradiso, Pres.; E. Brubaker, Treas. Row 2: Mr. Curry, Adv.; J. Updyke, V Pres; D.

The first one was a “Bob Michael Record Hop” and the second was an affair in April. During the basketball season the Sophomores sold “Watkins” booster pins in addition to refreshments at all home basketball games. During the Grand Prix weekend and in May the class of ’62 made big splashes with their car washes. Profits realized from the year’s activities went into the treasury and will help pay for the trip to Washington in the Spring of 1962. G. Palmer, Sec.; S. Davis, Pres.; W. Pierce, V. Pres.; M.

Profits from that dance enterprise went toward the Senior trip t6 Washington. Selling candy—a new Frosh project —and operating a refreshment stand at some of the home football games also helped the treasury to grow. The Senior-Faculty game ended the year’s activities. By the time June rolled around, well over a thousand dollars was in the treasury. Miss Milliman, Adv.; M. Love, Pres.; E. Paranjuk, Treas.; Miss Haughey, Adv.; D. Sgrecci, V. Pres.; J. Miller, Sec.

On December 21, 1959, the band performed its annual Christmas program. The annual Tri-Band Concert, which included members of the Watkins Glen, Penn Yan and Dundee bands, was held at Penn Yan on February 22, 1960.

PEP BAND The Pep Band, during the 1959-1960 school year, was certainly a “lively group”. The Pep Band played at all home basketball games and helped to keep these moving along by doing so. Many old favorites, college songs and musical cheers were worked up. The director of this group was John Merrill and the librarian was Gerrie Yanch. Mr. Bailey advised the Pep Band. 50 Row 1: M.

JUNIOR BAND The Junior Band, under the direction of Mr. Bailey, practices each day during the Junior High Activity Period. The members of the organization hope that someday they will take seats in the Senior Band. The Junior Band is a large group and, in its own way, adds to the musical scene of Watkins Glen Central High. 51 GIRLS’ CHORUS The Girl’s Chorus, under the direction of Mr. Tolman, performed at the annual Christmas Concert and annual Spring Concert. In conjunction with the Senior Band the group also sang at an Easter Concert. The Chorus sings a wide variety of songs—numbers from musical shows, religious songs, folk ballads, classical selections and popular songs. Barbara Teemley is the accompanist for this musical group which meets each Monday, Wednesday and Friday. 52 CHORALIERS Students from the seventh and eighth grades comprise the membership of the Junior High Choraliers. This group increased in size and strength this year. The Junior High Choraliers appeared in concert in the annual Christmas and Spring Programs in conjunction with the Girls’ Glee Club. Mr. Ernest Tolman directs this group. Barbara Teemley is the accompanist. 53 MiV er nie e rsdort GIRLS' SEXTET The Girls’ Sextet, under Tolman’s direction, performed at the annual Christmas and Spring Concerts.

Under the leadership of Sue Smith much was accomplished. Sue was aided by vice-president Evelyn Landsberg, secretary Gail Palmer and treasurer Kathy Dempsey. Mr. Ward was the advisor to the Council. Among the many other projects, the Student Council sold programs at football and basketball games, sold school jackets and sweaters, set up a record library, sponsored a home-coming weekend, and rearranged the class projects. The president. Sue Smith, was elected at the beginning of the year to attend a youth conference at Albany. The new ideas and activities from this conference aided the Student Council greatly. 56 Row 1: M. Miller, E. Landsberg, S. Hoy, L Argetsinger, B. Teemley. C. Da“s- 2 P Berlin Mr. Ward, G. LaPre, L.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Officers of the National Honor Society this year were as follows: Lettie Babcock, president; Georgia LaPre, vice-president; Sharron Soule, secretary; and Severne Johnson, treasurer. In order to secure enough money to buy pins and membership cards, the members of the National Honor Society took charge of the stand at one home football game. They also acted as monitors in supervising the student lounge. Another activity of the society was to conduct two assemblies in which new members were brought into the organization. 57 SENECAN STAFF Under the capable leadership of Editor-in-Chief Gerrie Yanch, the Senecan Staff worked hard to produce Watkins Glen Central High School’s yearbook. Many people—doing a great variety of jobs—contributed to the 1960 Edition of the Senecan. The staff began working early in October and finished things in mid-March. Mr. Steber and Mr. Mancuso were the advisors. 58 Under the leadership of Clayton Richards and Dan Stone, the Student Standard again brought to the students of Watkins Glen Central High the latest in news and in opinion. The Student Standard has been published for 18 years at Watkins High and presents to students and faculty members interesting bits of gossip, humor and information. The Standard is published ten times per year and its faculty advisor during the past year has been Miss Viglione. Many people—too many to mention individually—contributed to make this paper a successful endeavor. Row 1: M. Argetsinger, E. Landsberg, D. Stone, C. Richards, Miss Viglione, J. Schi-mizzi, M.

The outstanding programs for the year were: A trip to Corning to hear the New York State F.T.A. advisor, talks given by Mrs. Klube, Mr. Cook, and Mr. Mclnnis; observation in many of the classrooms; panel discussions on the teaching profession and a “guide” program for Parents’ Night. A few members have also been called upon to teach or supervise classes without teachers present. Officers of the F.T.A. were as follows: Kathleen O’Grady, president; Ruth Morey, vice-president; Evelyn Lands-berg, secretary; and Carol Giambo, treasurer. 60 Row 1: P. Dunbar, A. Bellavigna, S.

After new members were welcomed into the group, they served an excellent dinner to the veteran members of the organization.
