RICHARD LLOYD WILLIAMS Commercial Bud “A man is known by the silence he keeps.” Special Glee Club 4; Monitor 4; Senior Hop 3; Junior Prom 3; Foot- ball Formal 4. One of the quieter boys in the class, he keeps pretty much to himself. After a short sojourn at Brattleboro High School, he came back to gradu- ate with his old class. We’re glad he did. He’s one of the hunters of the class and spends most of his leisure time in the woods. All those stories about “blondes” make us wonder about his apparent lack of interest in the opposite sex. Maybe they’re just trying to razz you, Bud. We wish you all the luck in the world. LOIS MILDRED WOOD Commercial Lois ”There is nothing so loyal as love .” Basketball 2. 3. 4: Tennis 4; Special Glee Club 3. 4; Vermont Music Festival 2. 4; Spring Concert 2. 3. 4; Spotlight Club 4; Monitor 3. 4; Freshman Reception 4; Junior Prom 3: Football Formal 4; Junior High Tournament 4; Hi!

Who’s that monitor with a super smile for everyone? Who’s that peppy and snappy majorette? Who’s one of Mrs. Jones’ best guards? Lois, of course,—just to mention a few of her time-takers! She has had her share of man trouble, too. That personality will take you a long way on the road to success, Lois. Here’s our best for your best. FLORENCE LOIS YATES College Fluff ”We cannot all do all things” Basketball 2. 3. 4; Tennis 3; Band 1, 2. 3. 4; Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Special Glee Club 3. 4; Spotlight Club 4; Monitor 3, Capt. 4; Latin Club 3, 4; Senior Hop 3; Junior Prom 3; Football Formal 4; Hi! Schooler 2, 3. 4; Librarian 3; Junior Rotarian 4 ; Senior Sampler 4. Florence, as you can see, has a long list of various activities to her credit. She’s one of Mrs. Jones’ guards, ardent member of the band and orchestra, capable monitor captain, and an able assistant editor of the Sampler. Florence recently moved to Gageville but still manages to be in B. F. whenever needed. She’s sure to be one of the successful members of the class of '51. THE Joanie’s cute, And smart to boot. Dotty’s attractive, And very active. Anna’s blonde. And of men fond. Judy likes a lark. And dresses sharp. Barb’s our brain. Who’s never vain. Merry’s a “bleach” Who’s certainly a peach. Betty and math. Go the same path. Pat, you’re true And we’ll vouch for you. Shirley’s steady, A foot taller already. We all know “Fluff” Who does her stuff. SENIORS Anita’s our girl, With the natural curl. Jerry’s our comic. With energy atomic. Jimmy’s orange tie, Has us fit to die. Ray and his car, Seem to go far. Al’s a star, Ahead by far. Fee and his guitar, For entertainment are. Davie in French, Always rides the bench. Denno in Shaw’s, Worked for a cause. It’s Bebe and Mike Except when they fight. George in a whirl? It must be a girl. Jane

JOSEPH ANDREW SZUCH, Jr. Civic Joe “ Tis but a part u e see and not the whole. Science Club 1; Senior Hop 3; Football Formal 4; Christmas Pageant L 3; Cafeteria 1, 2. 3. 4. He’s a boy you don’t see much around school but. rather, down at Cray’s Service Station. He seems to be holding the fort down there at all times of the day and night. Although he hasn’t had much interest in the fairer sex before this year, we hear he has a “steady” now. What about it. Joe? While he is pretty quiet around school, when you get to know him, he’s not as quiet as he appears to be. WALTER EDWARD TARBELL Civic Walt “God helps those who help themselves Football 4; Senior Hop 3; Football Formal 4; Christmas Pageant 3. Even though Walt’s been with us only two years, his popularity is widespread. He will be long remembered for his witticism in our classes. No one knows much about his romantic life but he is thought to have some pretty serious interests up at U. V. M. He’s finishing school on a defer- ment and expects the army to snatch him up as soon as he graduates. The Army’s gain will certainly be our loss. He’s been a wonderful classmate, and may the future hold nothing but the best for him. ELIZABETH JOANNE WALSH College Betty “Laughter is her smile Special Glee Club 2. 3, 4; Vt. Music Festival 2, 4; Spring Concert 2, 3; Christmas Cantata 2, 3. 4; Latin Club 2. 4; Junior Prom 3; Football Formal 4; Senior Hop 3; Freshman Reception 4; Hi! Schooler 3; Play Nite 1, 2, 4; Senior Play 4 ; Cafeteria 4. This cute, little, blue-eyed Irish girl who’s always smiling needs no introduction. Baby-sitting seems to be her hobby. Do you like the chil- dren or the assisting company??? Betty, with your winning ways and ability to get along with others, your future looks bright. JOYCE LOUISE WHEELER College Joyct “ Nothing is more fun than a man Softball 1; Special Glee Club 1. 2, 3: Spotlight Club 2, 3. 4; Play Nite 2: Majorette 2, 3, 4. Joyce is the majorette right up in the front at all our parades. This fancy stepper came to us from St. Johnsbury, and has added much to our class. She intends to enter the nursing profession, and you may be sure that, with her patience and charm, she will make a very wonderful nurse. Good luck, Joyce. BARBARA RUTH WILCOX Commercial Barb “There was a star that danced and under that I was born Band 1, 2, 3, 4, All-State 2, 3, 4; Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4, All-State 1; Special Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Librarian 3; N.

Schooler 2, 3, 4; Sampler 4; Monitor 3, 4; Office Assistant 4; Cafeteria 1: Junior Rotarian 4. Our little spark of life with two homes. Forest Street and Room 22. How many times we have seen her up there typing, trying not to play chords. Active in nearly everything, she is serious in her studies. A brain of the commercial course — hence tne A’s. You hear merry laughter? It’s our Barb. With personality, seriousness, and wit, Barb, you'll succeed.
