cafeteria and teachers
Elizabeth Hochstetler Blackman
Yes, Pat, the cafeteria was in the "old" 2nd grade classroom. We had
to scrape the trays and then take them to the kitchen. We alternated weeks - one week we worked in the kitchen and the other week we worked at scrapping trays. One food that I learned to like was saurerkraut. I would mix it in with mashed potates and eventually could eat it without mixing it. Today I love a good Reuben sandwich. I remember Mr. Dodez class where he would read us a chapter of "The Sugar Creek Gang" book right after lunch if we were good in the morning. Mr. Badertscher (our seventh grade teacher) was my least favorite teacher. I remember when he used to bang some of the boys heads on the desk. Today, he would be brought up on charges - which he should have then! Now to catch up on some things, Since graduating....I have lived in Arlington, MA. and then Schenectady, NY before moving to Tribes Hill, NY (a small hamlet between Amsterdam and Utica.) I worked for Campbell Plastics a division of Standard Products for 20 years until they closed in 1987. I was first a buyer and then was Purchasing Manager. After they closed I was employed as a contract buyer for GE until I retired in 2000. Since that time, I have been kept busy with a small custom sewing business as well as working with my husband Jim in developing a small orchard and eventually (hopefully this year) building an earth bermed home which we have designed. I have two children Vonda lives in Richmond, VA and Craig lives in jenkintown, PA. We have two grandchildren, Rebekke 15 and Richard 12. The one that really keeps me busy is the 8 year old - Jack Russell Terrior. - Mindy. Still acts like a puppy and loves to jump in the pond after the frogs. Good mouser and snake catcher also. Still involved with the Purchasing group - locally NAPM -ENY (National Association of Purchasing Management Eastern New York) as their Professional Development Leader. on the Forum level, I am Secretary/Treasurer of the ISM New York/New Jersey Forum. Have recently changed church affiliation. For the past 40 years I have been a member of the Reformed Church and last year became a Methodist. Both my husband and I continue to serve as Counselors at the Reformed Church camp in upstate New York. Especially like working with the 4th, 5th and 6th graders. Have enjoyed reading various memories, will try to be more diligent about joining in. Betty Ann |

开云体育The fifth grade teacher was Ernest Dodez.? I guess only the girls had
their backs rubbed, a subject about which I was clueless.? A teacher who
did that today would be out of a job quickly and maybe spend some time in
jail,as well as having to register as a sex offender.

开云体育Yes, Margaret was in the class of '58.? In fact, Gwen sent me a copy
of the Dalton Gazette that had a picture of that class at their 50th reunion -
thanks, Gwen.? I don't think I would recognize many of them if I met them
on the street.

I don't change the font in Yahoo, I change it in Outlook.? Because the
replies go through Yahoo, it has the opportunity to make changes.? I notice
that it adds the ads on the side to the messages.

I just remember bringing my Roy Rogers lunch pail to school with me.? I don't recall where I ate my lunch, which always included Ovaltine in a thermos.? I guess?I ate in the cafeteria (wherever it was).? Was the teacher Paul Dodez who was our fifth grade teacher?? ?I kind of remember his name was spelled differently from the way it was pronounced.? By the way, nobody ever rubbed my back.? All I remember is that everyone feared going to??the principal's office because he was the one who was designated to paddle you with a paddle (I think, or maybe it was a belt) if you were naughty (and got caught).? I must have been sneaky.? I don't recall getting spanked.? Maybe I was the teacher's pet.? I think Carl Gift was the principal for the grade school. As for Mrs. Mumaw, I remember that name because in church when we sang the Doxology, I thought we were singing "Praise god from Mumaw Blessings Flow".?? I never could figure out how her name got in that song.? I still don't know.? Even today, when I sing the Doxology, I think of Mrs. Mumaw (a legend, apparently). Bu the way, who remembers Big C'hief tablets with the mega spacing between lines? The Weaselmeister ? ? ? ? --- In dalton59@..., "Barb" wrote: > > I'm with Lanny, I remember nothing about the cafeteria, did we have a > cafeteria? ;-) I do remember that old building and Mr. Gift rubbing our > backs.

I am so glad that you shared your feeling about the mean
teachers.....i thought all of the teachers were mean, especially mrs mumaw. or they were all grouchy or mad about something? i did not like mr dody as he made me stand in the coat closet and also left bruce adams drag me thru the seats at recess! he would not allow us to eat fire balls either and we still tried not to get caught. i can still recite a poem that we had to learn in the 5th grade called "the man in the moon" and then there was mr Gift who tried to see if the 6th grade girls were wearing bra's yet by rubbing his hand across their backs! the nerve! yes it was freida moser and i thought she was mean also. Was Margaret in the class of 58? when you post to the website how do you change your font anyhow? was in Mrs. Moser's class and very much afraid of Mrs. Mumaw. I think the third grade teacher became Mrs. Himes sometime during the year, but started as Miss Nussbaum??? You are probably right about the cafeteria, but I have no specific memory of it, except that the cook was Margaret Moser's mother, Frieda?

Re: grade school cafeteria/valentines/note passing

ya know i am still sitting here waiting for someone to help me out with
their memories of the grade school cafeteria......where is my support system? talking about times new roman font? i know that we were in the old 2 story grade school building and that the first grade was divided between mrs haney and mrs yeaman. then the 2nd grade was mrs mumaw and the 3rd was mrs himes ? and then the 4th mrs edwards and the 5th mr dody and 6th was mr gift. the building was old old and old with creaky wooden floors and a basement where the restrooms were. i remember at recess we would try to drag the boys into the girls basement just for fun...........i also remember doing acrobatics on the floor in the girls basement. i think that nancy W was one of the ones that could do flips in the air? and i am sure connie and karen as i thought they could DO most anything. I remember that we did the first three grades downstairs and then the 4th grade upstairs and then the new school must of opened with the first 4 grades because we then moved back downstairs to do the 5th and 6th grade. then the 2nd grade classroom became the cafeteria (in my mind anyhow.) i remember working in the steamy hot dish room washing those trays. any other recollections out there? dont make me think by myself so much...... it HURTS my head! --- In dalton59@..., "Patricia Dearolf Lee" <pjlee123@...> wrote: remember the dish room being in the back of the second grade classroom. ithink that i worked in that steamy room perhaps for a free lunch? did theydont remember for sure...and girlfriend notes and valentines.......but i still remember getting inlot of time in the office! |

Re: Back to the candy

开云体育I'll have to experiment with fonts to see what is going
on.? I think that Yahoo is changing it because they don't recognize the
font, which is Garamond 12.? It is not that small on my
computer.
?
This is Times New Roman 12.
?
This is Courier New 12.
?
I hope I don't have to resort to this ugly sans serif
Arial 12 font...
?
... or this one, Tahoma 12, which is also sans serif, but
better than Arial.

Patricia Dearolf Lee
Corrine could you post your correct email address where you want your
emails sent. i know you did it on the yahoo site but i cant seem to find it.........is it the yahoo one instead of the comcast? also heard from carol zimmerly who assured me that the committee continues to meet and are trying to narrow a place down for our dinner, also that she went to larry's reunion this year (his 50th) and realized that the most important part of the reunion is the desire to connect and share memories! YEAH! I agree and that is what we want to happen here at the Yahoo site! thanks to all of you that are making that happen.....pjlee |

We aren't going to forget the Smothers Brothers are we? Especially
the regular appearance of Foster Brooks and also Pat Paulson. Speaking of Foster Brooks, if you haven't seen this clip, play it. If it doesn't make you chuckle you have no sense of humor!
