THE IANEER J } 7uAR.y 3lj 935 VOL. I JUNE A, %36 0 0 NO. PUBLISHED FOR THE CLASS OF 1936 T.J. X WE TAKE THE ROPES OF THE PAST TO RING THE BELLS OF THE FUTURE EDITORIAL Shortly sifter the publication of this yearbook, the Senior class will participate in what is now the most Important event of a life-time. They will be graduated. Perhaps you do not know the full significance of this occasion, Basically it means that they are leaving school; in the broader sense, it means they have fulfilled the requirements for u an even break in life w. Some may begin a business of their own; others will go to college to receive a broader knowledge and pursue a professional career. Most important to us, is the fact that they are leaving. You ask, n Yihat have they gained ? '  They have, learned to apply the facts studied in school in order to make a living. They now assume the responsibility of men and women. More than ever now, they must work, to clothe themselves, earn their living and attain some goal,for that twelve years of study has laid the foundations. ' -. . This Senior class now has the opportunity to thank publicly all those persons who have cooperated to make this ovent possible. Physics, chemistry, history, algebra, Latin, Franch, mathematics, English will all seem a maze of words as they receive the diplomas. Nevertheless, the thoughts of the instructors, who might have drummed and rasped that knowlege firmly in their heads, will never be forgotten. And it is to them, the Seniors owe their greatest thanks. y Roe Loftus Editor in Chief t I ____WT?

As the yoars passed, the membership decreased until there are seventeen left in the class. There i3 little to bo said concerning our first year because v;e did not have class organ! zat-.ons at that tine. During our second year in high school, the classes we.re organized and given class advisors. Under the direction of Hiss Vessel!, cur class was organized and officers were elected, Reginald Bissette, who has since left school, was president; Oakley Cooley, vice-president; Roe Loftus, treasurer; and Lesley Cross, secretary During the school year, our class gave a public danco, card parties, and plays to raise money. In June, 1933 we gavo three one-act plays: A Pair of Lunatics ; ’’The Albany Sepot ; and ” A Bed of Roses . The cast included everyone in the class. These plays were under the direction of Miss Wessell In the early part of our Junior year, a dance given. Later a play,. “Winners All ,was given. The cast consisted of Doris Beeknan, Edna Flora, Rachel Shappy, Marion Tero, Mary Stanley, George Hosmer, Roe L ftus, Oakley Cooley, and esley Cross. °During tho winter months of our Junior year, our class sold hot soup to raise money toward our graduation fund. On June 7 the Junior Prom was held in the Hi£h School gym. This was the concluding event of the year for the Junior class. At the beginning of our Senior yoar, with seventeen members our class organized and elected Roe Loftus, president, Doris Beeknan, vice-president;Marion ero, secretary; and Edna Flora, treasurer. Our class started with a dance in the Gym. A magazine selling con-tost was held by the class. Our class again sold soup as a means of raising funds. A play, n Peggy Parks' Parking Parqdise was given. Tho cast included: Boris Beekman, Marion Tero, Rachel Shappy, George Hosmer, Edna Flora, Wesley Cross, Oakley Daby, and Marshall Benedict, The class of 1936 has supplied the following members of the school sports teams: Roe Loftus, Roy Shepard, Harold Hoskins, Kendall Wilkins, John yan, and Nicholas Abare. V e are now nearing the end of our last year in high school and looking forward to the Baccalaureate Exercises, Commencement Exercises, and the Graduation Ball to complete our High School careers, .After this occasion, the Class of 1936 will depart in person but not in mind from dear old Wilisboro High.

There were twice as many buildings and the lovely old town had changed to a somewhat lively town. My chauffeur is the honorable Le Roy Shepard, who left with me and his lovely- wife, Veletia Strong, about ten years ago to work for me. The first thing that I noticed was the large theater which stood where the old Grange Kail was whan I left. The picture playing was ''The Singing Kid, featuring George Hosmer and Doris Beckman, Imagine my surprise when I later discovered that Marshall Benedict owned the theater and supported him and his wife, Mary Martin. He says that Mary' proves to be a successful cook. Evelyn Brunet married Harold Hoskins and still holds the telephone office, and Harold Hoskins coaches the famous baseball team on the side. Arnold Spierto is proprietor of afashionable night club, known a3 the Mill Stream where we find Betty Howell, Helen Provost, and Margaret Flaherty. Doctor? Oh, yes. Roe ij-oftus is the city doctor and Mary Stanley helps him as a professional nurse. Nick A-bare is ambulance driver for the Patients1 Hospital. The cleaning business became too dirty for him. Thelma erdo runs a dressmaker's shop and is married to Lesley Cross who is a foreman at the mill. There were traffic cops on two corners and you can't imagine who they were; Jame3 lVlason and :’verwin Hutchins. Norman King was a condufctor on the street car which ran through the town. I first visited the school where Prof. Lilly is still teaching and his son is a member of the Senior Class. He also has a very attractive daughter who is a Freshman. My, my, how time flies. Among the teachers employed are Edna Flora, Mary Shambo, Rachel Sahppy, Kathryn Curren, and Kendall ’Villeins is the history C teacher and Margaret Shedd is assistant in History C. Bud Daby is a famous dancing teacher and Gladys Doylw is his assistant. I nearly forg ot to mention that they are married and raising a family. ’Then I went to church, received the surprise of my life. John Adams was the priest. Mr. Thayer has retired as a teacher and he and Miss Legate live comfortable intheir home, the house formerly belonging to Eulee Jones. I took my car■to the Chevrolet garage now run by Ronald Marshall. I stayed over night at their home. Elsie Rand, now his wife, runs the house and is a very good cook. As I gossiped about' all my friends, I found that Joseoh Bruno and his wife Marion Tero live on.a farm on the outskirts of the city. Ellen Crowningshield is the librarian. Helen Denett i3 married to Vaughan Stafford and is assisting him in his janitor work by dusting. Billy Daniels is taking care of a farm and still waiting for Mary Stanley, Grace Prenier and Llewelyn Martin are married, Thedra Oliver is running the Girls' Seminary in the city, -George Blanchard is clerking in the A and P Stores and Blanche'' v . . • SperiPio is his honorable wife. lflargaret Clyne became very famous by having quintulplets and Roe Loftus was the attending physician. Howard Horton runs a department store whehe Jenamae Lesperance models for ladies clothing. As I was leaving town, I noticed a group of soldiers hitchhiking through. They were Join Ryan, Gearge Nichols, Edward Lester, George Xahaly, and Clifton Blanchard. Imagine whom I met in Ess ex I It was Ur. Van Leuvan, principal of the iissex High School, and his wife, the former disc Donahy. . i - ' S HOSTS' MOST POPULAR BOY ROE LOFTUS MOST POPULAR GIRL MARY STANLEY BEST ATHLETE LE ROY SHEPARD BEST BOY DANCER ROE LOFTUS V BEST GIRL DANCER GRACE THOMPSON GIRLS' HI-Y The following members of the Girls' Hi-Y were elected as officers for next year: a ,, President Mary Kehoe Vice-president Mary Martin Secretary.
