During our short tenure in this school, we have become fully aware of its many advantages over the old school system. However, this awareness is based upon the realization that the ideals of our early school districts have provided a basis for our present-day school system. Therefore, in commemoration of these early schools, we are presenting them throughout our yearbook in picture form as they stand today. In 1811 the first school in Wayland was erected. It was a log school house located on the County Line Road, just north of the village. An important change occurred in November 4, 1881, when the people of the village de- cided to build a new Union Free School. This school was chartered by the University of New York in 1894, and four years later it became a full fledged high school by establishing a department of academic studies. School house succeeded school house, each larger and better equipped than its predecessor. The old wing of the Wayland School on Lackawanna Street was constructed in 1905, and in 1928, this school was remodeled and a new wing was added. May 14, 1945, proved to be the Deginning of a new chapter in the history of Wayland schools, for a public meeting was held on this day to vote for the centralization of the school. Out of the 732 people who voted, only 81 opposed while 651 favored the proposition. Thirty-six school districts from Steuben, Ontario, and Livingston Counties were united into the Wayland Central School in 1945. This new central district covered approxi- mately two hundred square miles, and had a population of about 6,000 people. At the time of the centrali- zation, only five district schools were still in operation. The last of these rural schools to close was the Perkinsville District School in 1950. The need for a larger, more accommodating school was soon evident, and on June 26, 1946, the citizens of the district voted to purchase forty-five acres of land for $12,000 on the Dansville-Wayland road as a site for a new central school. Three days later, this need greatly increased when a fire partially destroyed the Lackawanna Street School. Various community churches offered rooms for housing elementary grades and some high school departments. August 17, 1948 was another memorable day in Wayland, for on this day the public approved a bond issue for $400,000 with which to build a new elementary school on the new land site. The vote was 218 in favor of the proposition and 27 opposed. From a balance of this appropriation for the school, a bus garage was constructed. This was approved by voters on May 19, 1949. The elementary school was completed in May, 1950, and was open for use in the following September. On June 5, 1950, voters overwhelmingly approved a bond issue of $900,000 to construct a new junior-senior high school. This was completed and put into use on January 5, 1953. A new era in education in Wayland was under way. We have, indeed, advanced a long way from the original log cabin school because of the ideals of our prede- cessors. May our ideals prove equally stimulating to the future. Mrs. Sally Patchin Mrs. Lola Wemett Guy B. Benneti President Victor M. Kimmel J. Austin Otto To the Board of Education, the class of 1953 dedicates this book. This group of interested citizens has ser- ved our school and community in many ways. They were instrumental in the centralization of our school, in 1945. The latest proof of their untiring efforts is our new school building, a dream come true. We salute them!

CLASS HISTORY THE NIGHT BEFORE GRADUATION 'Twas the night before graduation, when all through the halls, The seniors were recalling their rises and falls. As frosh we were green, ” but we soon became bolder; As years sped along, and we became older. We elected our officers with Richmond as head. And Miller as treasurer kept us out of the red. Big Tom was our Vice-President, and Edmond our Sec.; They both kept our class from becoming a wreck. The big Freshman Frolic was the event of the year. We sang and played games, which erased all fear. With June exams over, and our minds now at ease, We left for the summer without paying class fees. September rolled around-all too quickly some thought. We got down to business: Fun and knowledge we sought. As sophomores we held elections once again, To choose those to lead us through thick and through thin. Gary Miller was President, with Davis as his Vice-, And Weiermiller and Schultz, helped break the ice. We collected our dues, and at the end of the year, Held a picnic at Stony Brook, which most held quite deai. The summer passed quickly; back to school we came. We now were big juniors, the upper-classmen by name. We edited The Echo, ” the junior class paper. With Griffin as boss, ” we cut quite a caper. We held class elections with the boys in majority; Only Trudy as Secretary, was from the minority. Our President was Schultz, backed up by Miller; And to serve as treasurer, we re-elected Weiermiller. After many postponements our Leap-Year Dance was held. We danced in our stocking-feet, and during the squares we yelled. When spring arrived. May also came-fresh--and green--and still. We held the annual Junior Prom; the theme, The Old Dutch Mill. ” The king and queen were chosen, a lovely couple they were. The queen was Judy Edmond; the king, Ev. Weiermiller. After May, came June; with tests and regents to take. We knew that only one more step on the ladder we would make. Summer passed so quickly, as they always seem to do. We were great big seniors now, when in fall we entered school. We held our class elections which, indeed, set quite a precedent; We re-elected Schultz to lead us with Davis, his Vice-President. We elected Miller to take down all the notes: And with Weiermiller as our treasurer, the boys controlled the votes. We got our yearbook underway; our editor was again, Elaine. She got together her loyal staff, which for her, relieved the strain. As a class, our first big project was the magazine selling drive. We set for ourselves a very high goal, for which we had to strive. Eleiott and Belanger were captains of the teams, And with Miller, as our head, we fulfilled all our dreams. At holiday time, in November, we held a Thanksgiving Dance. We came in couples, two by two, without our uncles and aunts. In December, we also held our beautiful Christmas Ball, To the music we danced and danced--ar.d a glorious time was had by all. We moved to the brand new school after a short Christmas vacation. We were amazed at the size and the comforts; our hearts were filled with elation. We weren’t in that school very long, when along came fateful June, And after passing those terrible regents, we started humming the commencement tune. And now on the eve of the day, when from this school we'll commence, Our hearts are filled with memories; our nerves are tightened and tense. We thank all the teachers for what they have done to help us along life's road. They've given advice and wee bits of knowledge, to help lighten our heavy load. So, you see, when we look back to our good, old, high-school ways, Remembering, we will be able to say, 'THOSE WERE THE HAPPY DAYS!” , 4 - • S' v '« 1 « r v ' 4 V ■« S rjffilr: j� ;1 r t(f •z • V� v% 'V 3? f %J� .; v MfciPS -t •C-- Wjl-V. 1 •h ' ,-j m m ?Sr -■ .%£' PR , v i1 1,C J • H V .

This year playing for the first time in the Steuben Class A -B league they went through league play undefeated winning five in a row and tying Hornell. The only losses came at the hands of Nunda. TheEagles lost two non-league games to the Orangemen and then dropped the quarter- final game to the same team in Sectional play. Another win was registered at the expense of Avoca to mane the over all record stand at 6 wins, three defeats, and one tie. The team was the highest scoring pitch team in the history of the sport at Wayland Central. They scored a total of 76 points during the season while holding their opponents to 28. The entire squad possessed excellent spirit and accord- ing to Coach White, they were a pleasure to coach. Co-captains Gary Miller and Gary Walker proved themselves superb leaders on and off the field and much credit is due the entire squad.

They compiled an ex- cellent record of eight wins as against five losses and captured the championship of the Steuben County Class B League. Following this, they gave a good account of themselves in Sectional play, defeating Bolivar in the quarter-final game play- ed at Red Wing Stadium in Rochester. Mt. Morris went on to win the Sectional Championship, but it was generally be- lieved that Wayland gave them their toughest competition. The Steuben County Championship was decided by a playoff between Wayland and Canisteo, at Avoca on Memorial Day. Those attending this game really saw a story book finish as the Eagles came from behind in the last inning to score five runs and tie the ball game. Then in the eighth inning they scored the winning run which gave them the title. It was necessary for the quarter-final game to be played the followingday at Maple City Parkin Hornell. In this game Bob Didas, who had been used mostly in relief all season, pitched a six hitter and advanced the maroon and gold to the semi-finals.

A new boys’ chorus has been added to the department, which also consists of a mixed choir, a girls' chorus, and a Junior High chorus. Several ensembles have also been organized. Three new pianos and a new organ have been purchased for the department, and several students are taking organ lessons at the school. The girls' chorus and choir performed at the opening night of the new school, and all the vocal groups have sung for the various school programs. In addition to attendance last May at the music contest at Canandaigua, we also participated in the county music festival at Savona in December. Several students from the mixed choir attended All-State at Ithaca in October. Carol Mobley was chosen as a representative of Wayland School to sing in All-State Choir at the Music Educator's National Conference in Buffalo. BACK ROW, left to right: J. Bill, E. Duel, A. Kling.
