Blemaster who was our friend and counselor through our twelve years of school. Mr. Blemaster received his Bachelor of Arts Degree from St. Lawrence College in 1920 and his Master of Arts Degree from Allegheny College in 1926. He came to Wilson in the fall of 1927. For eighteen years Mr. Blemaster sought to enlarge the educational facilities of our school. In his first year the agricultural department was added and he personally coached our first victorious basketball teams. Then, a homemaking department, a commercial course, a fine arts and industrial arts departments were added. More affectionately known as Prof” by old and young alike, his guiding influence and assistance will long be remembered. -3- HONOR ROLL Graduates who have entered the service since April 1, 1944 Neil Arnold Adrian Banks Lester Clark Ashley Gale Paul Neuman John Williams Harold Benedict Robert Clement Lawrence Hewitt Clifford Stevens Stanley Lederhouse Frederick Greenhalgh IN MEMORIAM J.

Dr. Stubbs, the history professor, and Dr. Kimball, President of the college, (Gerald Hunt and Whitney Evans respectively) have had to be severe in their attitude toward education versus football since criticisms have been forthcoming from the rest of the faculty. Jeff Sterling (Clinton Seefeldt), student football manager, being anxious to have Chuck on the team, enlists the help of Shirley who is Dr. Kimball's daughter (Betty Read) and her friend Rosemary (Nancy Curtiss). They also enlist the help of Gladys (Jean Swigert) who is a music student working her way through college as Kimball's maid. They conceive a plan to persuade Professor Stubbs to give Chuck another chance after they have crammed him for the exam. However, while Jeff goes to bring Chuck back, the girls persuade Rosemary's cousin, Cuthbert, (Eugene Ingraham) who has arrived too late to take the entrance exams to impersonate Chuck because he is an excellent student and would pass the exam very easily. Cuthbert takes the exam and makes the expected favorable impression. However, at the crucial moment, Jeff returns with the real Chuck and the plot is revealed to every one including Dr. Kimball. Professor Stubbs accuses the President of being in league with the young people, and Dr. Kimball, insulted, fires him. Undaunted, the young people try to make amends. They believe that Dr. Kimball will be more approachable if he thinks that Chuck's Aunt Kate (Helen Barry) will endow a new college library. Naturally, Dr. Kimball falls for the bait and wishes to see Aunt Kate immediately. However, Aunt Kate is still to be persuaded, so they must be kept apart. So many people try to cooperate that the resultant confusion puts Dr. Kimball in quite a state of nerves. He doesn't know whether Aunt Kate is a disguised Mrs. Stubbs (Lucille Farwell), or Florence Ward (June Leggett) a persistent magazine writer who will go to any end to force an interview. Aunt Kate finally arrives on the scene and proves to be a likeable person who sees that everyone is satisfied. Both boys are finally admitted to the college and Professor Stubbs is reinstated as a member of the faculty. Throughout the play, the young people have an understanding friend in Mrs. Kimball (Ellen Leetch). -19- HISTORY First row: Farwell. Hillman, Carrigan, Bliss, Barry Second row: Marks, Ossman, Leetch, Pease, Evans Twelve long years ago, nine children of this class entered the first grade of the Wilson High School, better known as The Old School. Miss Alsworth, our first teacher, patiently and courageously taught us our ABC's. As little children, we had heard the word discipline , but little did we realize the actual meaning of this word until we came to second grade, where Miss Hamblin was our teacher. Several events were outstanding in third grade: First, the acquiring of two new subjects, history and geography; second, moving day when we packed all our belongings under the guidance of Mrs. Burch and marched across the street into the new building. We were fourth graders under the supervision of Miss Evans. The year passed quickly and we found ourselves with Miss Kruske in fifth grade. We were rewarded by special treates of homemade ice cream. We are glad to have had the privilege of being taught by Miss Kruske as she retired in June 1939. It was hard to realize that we were growing older, but something happened in sixth grade which has followed us through high school-book reports. Miss Coombs was our teacher. No recesses for seventh grade, we were told by Mrs. Dikeman. Eighth grade started our activities with Miss Pierce as our teacher. A History club was formed, and a newspaper started. There were rumors that our school would centralize. During the summer vacation of 1941, Wilson High School became Wilson Central School, and we were the first freshmen class. Our homeroom teachers were Miss Parker and Mr. Hill. The operetta, The Count and the Co-Ed , under the direction of Mrs. Hurlburt was the highlight of the year. In our sophomore year, Mrs. Casler and Mr. Churchill were our homeroom teachers. As sophomores, we were not old enough to plan and carry out many activities, so we looked forward with great anticipation to our junior year. In our junior year, we began our social functions. Class officers were elected as follows: President, Paul Markell; Vice-President, Ellen Leetch; Secretary, Dolores Magill; and Treasurer, Donald Golde. Our advisers were Miss Mary Schweitzer and Mrs. Marion Scherraerhorn. A Hallowe'en and several Vic-dances were held for the purpose of enlarging our class funds. The juniors and seniors sponsored a Spring Ball which climaxed our activities for the year. We, the senior class of 1945, assembled in our homeroom at the beginning of the year for the purpose of appointing our advisers and electing class officers. Miss Dorothy Dehn was chosen as adviser and Mrs. Marion Schermerhorn as co-adviser. The class officers were: President, Clinton Seefeldt; Vice-President, Dolores Magill; Secretary, Theresa Banks; Treasurer, Charles Ossman. In November we held our Thanksgiving Dance, which was very successful. At Christmas time, the members of the class who were in choir took part in the cantata, The Lost Carol. After twelve years of schooling, we were able to show our real talent by presenting the play, Going Places. The annual Spring Ball was sponsored by the juniors and the seniors. Near the close of our senior year we entertained the junior class, and the Salutatorian was Nancy Curtiss. The Valedictorian was Lucille Farwell -20- We, the Senior Class of Wilson Central, being indisputably of sound and disposing mind and memory and about to depart from this grand institution of learning, do make, declare and publish the ensuing instrument, consisting of two pages including this one, as our last will and testament, hereby revoking any and all former wills by us at anytime heretofore made. Clinton Seefeldt leaves his nickname, Frankie , to Clayton Glenn. Hope it does you as much good as it did Clint, Clayton.

Fred Tillotson wills that shy manner of his to Buddy Gates. Betty Read wills her musical ability to Katie Burke. Gertrude Weber gladly wills her secret of staying short to Miss McLellan. Raymond Senik leaves his draft number to Donald Wheeler. Helen Barry grants the privilege of writing the class history to some 12-year student of '46. Douglas Canfield bequeaths his motto, to heck with the girls , to Gordie Lampman. Paul Markell bequeaths his ability to be on good terms with all the girls in the school to John Schermerhorn. Jean Miller leaves her place in the drug store to Boots Lort. Richard Figura bequeaths his ability to never start school until November and still get by in June to Ronald Hurtgam. Leona Wilcox leaves her valuable knowledge of homemaking to Shirley Tower. -21- Marilyn Kropp bestows upon Sharlene Hall the habit of arriving at school on time. Norma Bliss leaves her fondness for the teachers to Kay Natchuras. Dick Pease leaves his secret of growing tall, which is putting fertilizer in his shoes, to Johnnie Curtiss. Ardis Dobrovolny wills her ability to draw to some senior of '46 so that they too can have some outstanding drawings in their yearbook. Shirley Barry leaves her ability to skip school to Phyllis Beach. Allen Rohring wills the ability, to have a girl in every town , to Wesley Letzin. Virginia Hillman bestows upon Joan Dent the ability to boil water without burning it. Sally Streeter gladly wills her ability to graduate at an early age to all the boys who are near the draft age. Marvin Myers bequeaths his ability to argue on any subject to George Moran. Ruth Grzybowski leaves her never-ending talking in classes, as well as in study hall to Ruth Harris. Thomas Marks wills his ability to roam the halls in all free periods to Jimmy Munch. Jean Swigert hereby revokes her claim to her many male admirers. Junior girls, here's your chance!

Jerry Hunt wills his Charles Atlas build to Philip Clement. Richard Robinson wills his knowledge of hunting and fishing to David Williams. Pat Leffler wills her studious manner to Mary Ann Estony. Eugene Ingraham leaves his place on the bench to any second team player that can make the grade. James Coulter wills his knowledge of all the girls to Louie Neuman. He knows plenty about a lot of them, Louie. Earl Carrigan and Whitney Evans leave to this world all the known and unknown enemies they have made in the writing of this will. We make, constitute, and appoint our trustworthy adviser, Miss Dorothy Dehn, to be executrix of this, our Last Will and Testament. In witness whereof, we have hereunto subscribed our name and affixed our seal this twenty-second day of June 1945 A.D. -22- PROPHECY As I glide along in my birch canoe on a crystal clear Alaskan lake near the Alcan Highway, I look into the water and see many subterranean sights. It is nearly dawn and the sun has just risen. There is an old Indian legend which says that if you look carefully in one spot, you may see, mirrored in the water visions of events twenty years from now. The water is glistening in an array of morning sunbeams, as I near the exact place where the visions may be seen in the depths. Ah! Behold! At first I see hazily but now more clearly a large prosperous-looking farm with a white house and red barns. Earl Carrigan, Jr. steps out of the back door, dressed in work clothes appearing to be a typical American farmer. As he nears the barn, who should appear on the scene but Bill Munch, Earl's first-rate hired man. Bill, followed by a team of horses, looks ready for work. Who's driving into the yard? It looks like, and is Nancy Curtiss. I hear Earl telling Bill that she is part owner of the Rex Poultry Farm, and that she is delivering the five hundred baby chicks that were ordered. Behind the barn, we shall get some first-rate information on planting trees. Tom Marks is demonstrating to Clinton Seefeldt how to plant the Scotch pine. Clint is taking advanced work as forest ranger in the Adirondacks. Look down in the hay field; two airplanes have just landed. They are a couple of old 1950 models of the Piper Cub. Out jump Dick Pease and Jerry Hunt. They were fighter pilots in World War II. Beyond the hay field lies a large woods where Whit Evans and Ray Senik have hunted coon many a night. Ray and Whit disagree considerably on the method of catching coon. Whit would rather hunt them with dogs and Ray would rather trap them. Once in awhile, one of Whit's dogs will get caught in Ray's traps; and the boys have to go over to see Dick Figura, Justice of the Peace, in order to settle their argument without bloodshed. The first thing Dick always does is ask to see their licenses which were bought from Jim Coulter, who is now Town Clerk as his dad used to be. Whit has some mighty fine-looking dogs. I wonder where he bought them. They look like some of the pedigreed stock which Ellen Leetch raises. The extreme end of Earl's farm is crossed by a railroad. A train is just passing by, and the engineer, Clifford Collins, blows the whistle for the road crossing. The train is traveling toward a large city which can be seen in the distance. On board are two nurses. Who could they be but Lucille Farwell and Ruth Grzybowski? Both are well trained in their profession and are going to get off at the next stop to care for Reverend Markell, who has been taken ill with pneumonia. With their excellent care, Paul should be on his feet in almost no time. What's that original round contraption on the back of the seat? The porter tells me that it is a new air circulator invented several years ago by Professor George Harlow. As we enter the station, everybody rushes off the train and goes in various directions. Behind the ticket window in the terminal sits Willie Volls, issuing tickets as fast as he can. This task is easily handled with the aid of the Recordo-Type whose electrical mechanism was designed by Eugene Ingraham. Eugene and Fred Tillotson are now working in a lab on some new processes of which, as yet, the public knows nothing. With Fred's mechanically-inclined mind and Eugene's electrical knowledge, whatever it is should be a real success. -23- On making our exit from the terminal, we arrive on a busy main street. Everybody seems to be hurrying and scurrying around, seemingly going nowhere. There is a large store across the street in the windows of which are the latest designs in dresses, borne of the best were made by Marilyn Kropp and Betty Read. Both girls have exquisite taste in women's clothing. By the way, this store is operated by Jean Swigert. By the number of people in the store it looks as though the store is prosperous. Pat Leffler can be given part credit for the prosperity, as she is in charge of buying the merchandise. Down the street a little farther is the Savings Bank in which Charles Ossman is a teller. He has had several advancements, and probably the next one will make him manager. I wonder if being class treasurer had any effect on his success. As I glance toward the back of the bank, I see Leona Wilcox and Gert Weber, seated behind two typewriters, working very steadily at their job. Their speed and accuracy has increased considerably since they last took typing from Mrs. Gnage. Shirley Barry, the head waitress at the Ching Wang Restaurant, thrusts her head through the round window in the door leading from the dining room and says, Two T-bone steaks with French fries . It surely looks good, and I can fairly smell the tempting food. Next door is a beauty salon in which Virginia Hillman and Norma Bliss have found their vocations. Seeing the people leaving the shop, it looks as if the girls are pretty good at it, too. Dee Magill has just come out from under the drier. My I Look at that hair-do! It seems to look rather silly, all piled up on top like that, but I guess it is just the style. What are all the people doing down there? The bright Neon sign reads: Streeter's Gas Station. It looks as though Sally is doing a considerably larger business than her dad. Donna Reed is Sally's secretary and is keeping the books for her. At the end of the block is the city hall, a large stone building. On the fourth floor, Room 16, is the 4-H office in which Betty Burnett is now working as secretary to the County Agent. In the basement is the license Bureau. Well, look who's coming out of the door, Doug Canfield. He's carrying in his hand a set of license plates for his Model T truck, which is much out of style but still serviceable on his farm. At the far end of the city beside the river is situated the museum. Inside are many wonderous and strange things which few people know about. Theresa Banks is seen here acting as main guide. Richard Robinson is wandering around the halls examining some Indian arrowheads. He is especially interested in old relics of which the museum has a large collection. Theresa tells me that these realistic paints on the wall were done by Ardis Dobrovolny. Downstairs is the museum's cafeteria in which wholesome food is served by Janet Burrows, a dietitian. Gaiety and laughter of happy people can be heard in the distance, and a Ferris wheel is seen cutting the horizon. Allen Rohring is the owner of the carnival that is now in town. With the merry-go-round and other concessions, it looks very similar to the Lockport fair when it is in full swing. Across the river and toward the outskirts of town is the ball park. Marv Myers, the coach for the Yankees, is just leaving the field for the airport. Marv had his big year back in 1954 when the Yankees won the series; but he is a little older now, and his arm isn't as limber as it used to be, so he has taken over the job as coach. As the car nears the airport, I can see Helen Barry in the control tower testing the wind velocity. This seems a strange job for a girl, but she is very skilled, having obtained her knowledge in an airplane factory as a defense worker in the last war. The car slides to a stop, and Marv jumps out to board the airplane just in time for the take-off. Mary's startled eyes show that he has met somebody he knows. Who could it be? Why, it's June Leggett and Jean Miller who are stewardesses on this new luxury liner. As the plane leaves the ground and fades away into the distance, I notice that it is getting darker in the lake. The sun is setting in the west and, although my catch of fish for the day is small, I shall return to camp well satisfied with my journey. I dip the paddle deep and push hard. The canoe lurches forward over the glassy water toward shore and the deep woods. Camp and a soft bed of pine needles will feel good and I shall not soon forget this wonderful day ✓ X. • X _ 7 neeuies wiu leei gooa £? -24 - HERO’S Qyn” V � Soh H'tq 25 JUNIORS First row: Car- rigan, Carrigan, Wollaber, Hurl-hurt, Edwards, Gates, Rohring, Nelson.

At the beginning of the year all students of the seventh and eighth grades who were interested in a choir had their voices tested and from that group forty-four members were chosen. It is hoped that from this choir, members for next year's high school choral groups can be chosen. They were known this year as the Junior High Chorus. As this group has had no experience in public singing, it was arranged so that they might sing in several assemblies before the close of the school year. GLEE CLUB The mixed choir this year consisted of: sophomores, juniors and seniors. This group took part in a Thanksgiving assembly, singing two appropriate songs, The Blind Ploughman and The British Children's Prayer. First row: Leggett, Nelson, Barry, Burnett, Schuman, Miss Snyder, Caldwell, Blemaster, Harlow, Robinson. Second row: Swigert, Scheffler, Hotchkin, Magill, Walz, Harris, Read, Clement, Mosher, Ingraham, Hunt. Third row: Lort, Barry, Miller, Dobrovolny, Rung, Leetch, Studley, Ossman, Seefeldt, Wollaber, Markell. The mixed choir and the freshmen girls' choir presented The Lost Carol for the benefit of the public. The story of the cantata centered around the composition, Silent Night, Holy Night. The main characters were played by: Paul Markell, Ellen Leetch, Clinton Seefeldt and Paul Thomsen. -42- GIRLS’ CHORUS First row: Marks, Friedrich, Mulligan, Kidley, Landy. Second row: Herbert, Swigert, Leggett, Nelson, Schuman, Miss Snyder, Scheffler, Caldwell, Burnett, Forder.

Fourth row: Speck, Hornsby, Lort, Barry, Miller, Dobrovolny, Leetch, Studley, Rung, Teeft, Smith, Jensen. Because of schedule arrangements this year the freshmen girls could not join the high school girls' choir and thus met twice a week, as a separate group. A sextet formed from the group sang at an Eastern Star program in November, and the entire group participated in the Christmas Cantata. The remainder of the year was devoted to learning a number of choral pieces which were sung in school assemblies. The organization, composed of sophomore, junior and senior girls, has participated in several assemblies throughout the school year. Officers were elected as follows: President, Ellen Leetch; Vice-President, Dolores Magill; Secretary, Jean Swigert; Treasurer, Bernice Clement. OCTET This year an octet was organized. This group met once A week. Eignt choir members were chosen for their voice-bldiiding quality and their ability to sight read. First row: Read, Lort, Rung, Scheffler. Second row: Robinson, Markell, Seefeldt, Miss Snyder, Bleinaster. -43- BASKETBALL First row: Pease, Mr. Waite, Rohring, Mosher, Williams, Coulter. Second row: Ingraham, Moore, Collins, Evans, Seefeldt, Myers, Markell, Carrigan. BASKETBALL Mr. Albert Waite coached the basketball team for the second year. He had seven letterraen from last year and brought five up from the reserves. Last year's lettermen included Evans, Markell, Seefeldt, Collins, Myers, Mosher, and Carrigan. The five from the reserves were Ingraham, Rohring, Coulter, Pease, and Moore. No permanent captain was elected this year. Instead a new one was elected for each game. After winning nine games straight, they dropped their first one to Barker. Undoubtedly they will have to play Barker at the end of the season. At the time of this writing Wilson is not in the play-offs as yet, but as time goes on it is hoped that we will win the rest of our games.

In the regular Junior Red Cross drive in November, the school raised $358.79. As a school project it was decided to decorate for Christmas the recreation room of a hospital ward at Fort Niagara. The Girl Scouts also helped. The accomplishments of each homeroom were as follows: seniors brought in candy, peanuts and cookies; juniors wrapped gifts for bingo prizes; sophomores bought wreaths for the windows; freshmen collected greens; eighth grade donated money for Christmas trees, and grades one through seven made decorations for the room and the trees.

In the spring of 1944, after a year of inactivity the western part of the Miagara Orleans League started up with only three teams in the circuit; Wilson, Newfane, and Youngstown. Coached by Mr. Bernard Connors, the Wilson team went undefeated. We met Barker in the play-offs and defeated them for the first time in Wilson's hist-ory by a decisive score of 18-8. It was also the first time Wilson had captured the League title. FUTURE FARMERS Pres. - E. Carrigan Vice-Pres. - A. Rohring Sec. - J. Coulter Treas. - P.
