The members of the Student Council, and the staff of the yearbook are dedicating this issue of, "Purple and Gold Annual", to N ewall W. Mowry, principal of Heuvelton High School for five years and organizer of our Student Council.

One of the things which the Council has attempted to do this year has been the idea of placing a guard for the protection of grade children at the time when the busses leave. We also discussed organization of an honor system with the Student Council in charge. This would have made the organization stronger.

In the past, the Council has gained experience by working out minor details. We hope that in the future it may do a greater work. For instance, the members could sponsor dances, food sales, etc., and with the money make much needed improvements, such as buying library books, typewriters and equipment for the harassed school newspaper staff.

In September 1943, twenty-five of us launched out on our high school days. After we had finished our dreaming, we held our fires class meeting. The following were elected as our class officers: President, Maui-ice Reynolds; Vice President, Arthur Bullock: Secretary and Treasurer, Billy Richardson.

We entered our Sophomore year with a decreased number. That year we elected the following: President, Betty McMartin; N-ice President, Bobby Forsythe; Secretary and Treasurer, Carl Poor. We wanted to raise money, but we were only allowed to hold a Hallowe'en Band Social. However, we made $8.00 on this and so our fund for the Senior t rip began.

Now twelve of us came to our Junior year, and we felt we were progressing to the upper brackets. The officers this year were: President, Melvin Townsend; Vice President, Maui-ice Reynolds; Secretary, Ilene Mayhew; Treasurer, Betty McMartin. We voted that each member should pay fifty cents dues each month. This year we combined with the Seniors of '16 to have a joint Halloween party. On December 10th, many ,jubilant cries rang through the schoolhouse, for the Juniors had received their Senior rings. The highlight of our Junior year was our .lunior Prom. We set the date for May 24th and obtained Joe Calipari's Orchestra. Every member was kept busy to make this affair a success. The Prom way held in the Town Hall, which was decorated in purple and gold. Matching bows were placed on the walls, and the invited guests,;, the teachers, and the members of the Board of Education with their wives, sat within a trellis decorated with flowers. This Prom was a huge success, and we netted $1 >5.00 profit.

We then came to our Senior year. We had twelve members, having lost Maurice Reynolds and John Hand, but gaining Betty Christie and Ola Woodcock. We elected the following officers: President, Melvin Townsend; Vice President, Ola Woodcock; Secretary, Ilene Mayhew; Treasurer, Betty Christie. Student Council representatives were Ola Woodcock and Paul Wood. We selected our graduation cards. Early in the Fall we conducted a magazine sale and went way over our goal. Our first main activity was a dance on October 4th. Another dance was held October 27th. On the afternoon of November 27th we divided into groups, and made a drive to sell Christmas cards and assorted cards. February 12th we held a penny supper and auction. We cleared about $176.00 on these two activities. During the winter several dances were held after basketball games. Our last big drive for money was the producing of a play, "Mr. Cook Takes Over". Mr. Snyder, our class adviser, directed the play, and a gift was presented to him for his efforts. The cast was as follows: Mr. Cook, Bobby Forsythe; Mrs. Cook, Betty McMartin; Ralph (the 14 year old son), Newell Stewart; Thelma (the oldest daughter), Betty Christie; Gladys (the younger daughter), Barbara Kelly; Donald Cook, Carl Poor; Bessie Cook, Carmen Smithers ; Bob Dennison, Melvin Townsend; Bill Hartley, Arthur Bullock; Miss McNab, Ida Finley; Mrs. Kelland, Ola Woodcock; Ned Kelland (her son), Paul Wood; Mr. Morgan, Howard Snyder. We presented this to a very large crowd at Heuvelton, and this boosted our fund for our trip. The next night we presented it in Lisbon, clearing about $190.00 from the two performances.

On April 3rd we left for New York and Washington. This was the reward for all our hard work. We left Thursday morning and returned on Friday the eleventh. Everyone had the best time of their life, even though we were slightly tired when we arrived home. The Senior Class had the misfortune to lose our able president, Melvin Townsend. Ola Woodcock took the job for the remainder of the year. We missed the cheerfulness of Melvin and Bobby Forsythe on our Senior trip.

On Thursday, May 8th, we had a friendly get-together, and an evening of fun down at the Snyders. Mrs. Snyder showed us the movies she had taken of our senior trip. Melvin Townsend, past president, presented Barbara Kelly and Newell Stewart with gifts in token of our appreciation for the splendid work that they did in our play.

We would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation for the help Miss Cross gave us as our faculty adviser for our first three years. She helped to make our Junior Prom the success it was. We greatly appreciate the labor of Mr. Snyder as our faculty adviser in our Senior year. We are very grateful for the wonderful time that Mr. and Mrs. Snyder gave us on our Senior trip.

We, the Class of 1947 of Heuvelton High School, Heuvelton, New York, being sound of body and unsound of mind, do bequeath our following possessions in our last will and testament

As a class we leave Heuvelton High School a little worse than it was when we came.

There are 30 members of the Freshman class, and we hope that all (?) will be called Sophomores next year.

When school opened in September, we had a registration of 58. Of the 58, 30 were in first grade and 28 in second grade.

At Halloween, the girls in the Home Economics Glasses entertained

the entire group at a party in the Home Economics room. The room was appropriately decorated, refreshments mere served and games were played. It was a happy afternoon fen the children. At Christmas we had our usual Christmas tree and entertainment. On Valentine afternoon, movies were shown in our roam.

At the present time one pupil, Kenneth Harrington, still holds the perfect attendance record fog the year. We wish other students better luck next time. T

At the beginning of the school year, thirty-four boys and girl, were enrolled in our room. Four moved away so now we have twelve girls and eighteen boys.

Our attendance has been very good. Elsie McDonald, Helen Curry, Ronald Bogardus, and Ronald Johnson. have had perfect attendance.

We put on our assembly program last month. The title of our play was "Around the World with the Children".

The Heuvelton Chapter of the Future Farmers of America have had a successful year. The boys have taken part in both local and state judging contests. They sent judging teams to local fairs at Gouverneur, Malone and Hammond, and to state contests at Morrisville and Canton. We realized about seventy dollars from premiums at fairs. We have carried on a milk-testing program, and have participated in tours initiated by the Farm Bureau, of which our chapter is a member. We also took part in the annual Farm Management Day Tour and farm analysis.

Last September, McAllister and Cutway represented the chapter at the state contest at Morrisville. Cutway placed second in dairy cattle judging. We placed second at the Hammond F. F. A. Fair in September, too. McAllister was individual high scorer in that contest.

In October, Poor, McAllister and Cutway were the winning team at the state contest at Canton, for which an attractive First Award banner was given. Poor was high scoring individual in that contest.

Heuvelton acted as host to the other six F. F. A. chapters in the county at the fall sports rally. We also took part in the winter sports program of the county F. F. A. organization. In early Spring, the greenhand degree was given to James Chase, James McAllister, and Bob Steele.

The "Heuveltonian" was published monthly throughout the year. Paul Woods and Betty McMartin were elected co-editors of our newspaper. The assistant editors were Barbara Kelly and Beverly Nugent, and our Business Manager was Mary Denny. The reporters were as follows

Mrs. Jellie and Miss McClelland helped us with our pap: r in the first semester. Mr. Drake and Mr. Wallcott were our advisers during the last semester. We wish to thank each of them for their help and everyone on the staff for their cooperation.

We plan to have a picnic near the end of the year. I am sure everyone will enjoy this.

So-long to the "Heuveltonian" of 1947.

At the beginning of the year fourteen high school girls "went out" for cheering. After about 2 weeks' practice, four girls were chosen by both faculty members and student body. Those chosen were: Betty Christie, Mary Denny, Emma Lou Chambers, and Rosaline Hartley. Two cheerleaders left over from last year were Eloise Mayne and Ola Woodcock.

Ola Woodcock was chosen as head cheerleader. The girls chose for their uniforms purple skirts and yellow sweaters.

Much of the girls' time at noon was given to practicing so that they would be able to do a better job of cheerleading, to satisfy themselves and the student body. We hope we proved to be satisfactory.

Heuvelton High School did quite well this year, winning six games out of twelve. Heuvelton was coached by Mr. Seaman, and managed by Joe Narrow. The team was made up of the following: Paul Wood, center; Carl Poor, left forward; Jim McDonald, right forward; Earle Johnston, left guard; Bill Smithers, right guard. Others who played on the team were: Don Richards, Jim Chase, Jim McAllister, Mac Murdock, and "Abe" Pike.

SOCCER NEWS-FALL OF '46

The soccer team of this year placed third in a four-team league comprised of Norwood, Norfolk, Madrid and Heuvelton. Our team, being too light and inexperienced, didn't have a too successful season, winning one, losing four and having one tie game.
