Norma Patch Norma Evans Mabel Johnson , x ,!i. W -Asxv Elass flisfvry X We entered CHS September, 1952 with fifty-five members, and had the honor of being the last class of CHS to be initiated. For the first half year, not knowing each other very well, we chose a chairman, which was Ronald Betts. The beginning of the second semester we chose real officers. Philip Plumb was elected Presidentg Peter Swart, Vice Presidentg Marjorie Duprey, Secretaryg and Fay Gabert, Treasurer. Our class advisor was Mrs. Orcutt, then Miss Alexander. Our class dues were set at 35. Mr. Jillson's English class presented in assembly the following plays: Initiation and High School Daze. The latter, directed by Gloria Spaulding and Philip Plumb, was considered one of the best plays to ever hit the CHS stage. Our regular class play, directed by Mr. Thomas, was The Trader. The basketball team won the Southern Vermont tournament, that year, with the help of one of our members Bud Quimby, and four Freshman cheerleaders. In September, 1953 forty-eight of us reported back to CHS as Sophomores. We chose as officers, President Philip Plumb, Vice President Ronald Betts, Secretary Gloria Spaulding, and Treasurer Derry Ann Hazelton. Our class advisor was Mr. Newton. Dues were set at 37. That year the Newtons invited us up for a party with dancing and picnic. Our class play for that year was The Valiant, directed by Mr. Newton. Our Student Council representatives were Ronald Betts, Marjorie Duprey, and Derry Ann Hazelton. This year we started thinking about our class trip and began the money-raising with a Sox- Hop. In September, 1954, forty-one of us returned as Juniors. We chose as officers, President Philip Plumb, Vice President Ronald Betts, Secretary Derry Ann Hazelton, and Treasurer Gloria Spaulding. Mr. Newton was our class advisor. Our class dues were set at 557. The following had been chosen as our Student Council representatives: Fay Gabert, Ronald Betts, Derry Ann Hazelton, and Carol Cole, who was also Vice President. Carol was chosen as assistant manager of the Curtis Campaign. Mr. Newton directed the class play which was the mob scene from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, We put on the annual Halloween dance, and the Junior Prom among other things. Ronald Betts was chosen King of the Prom. Last came the Alumni Banquet, which we met with fried chicken and enthusiasm. At last in September, 1955, 39 of us found ourselves Seniors. We chose as officers, President Ronald Betts, Vice President Philip Plumb, Secretary Derry Ann Hazelton, and Treasurer Gloria Spaulding. Again our class advisor was Mr. Newton. Our class dues were set at 85. The senior play, presented in Chester and Weston, was June Graduate. Our Student Council members were Ronald Betts, Beverly Sherwin, Marjorie Duprey, and Derry Ann Hazelton, who was President. The head of the Curtis Campaign was Carol Cole. We welcomed the Freshman class with a dance, not onions and lipstick. Joe Swett went to Kansas City for the F.F. A.g and Melvin Stowell, Jerry Foster and Elmer Willis went to Eastern States, also in connection with F.F. A. The annual Christmas Dance was given. We went on the class trip going to New York and Washington D.C. Finally the big day, our Graduation from CHS. So concludes the History of the class of '56 at CHS. Nance Sherwin Philip Plumb Ronald Betts 611155 Prophecy June 16, 1981--a hospital waiting room , A State trooper with an accident victim is seated in front of a large plaque bearing , the inscription: To those involved: This hospital was built for you. Use it, don't abuse it. o v As we walk nearer, we see the trooper is none other than John KTHE LAWQ Scullin. 5' 1 'J 9 A flash of starched white and the Night Supervisor, Miss Johnson QMabel, at thatj glides 9 X swiftly down the corridor. Q. . A slight twitching and our victim comes around. There's a long, low whistle and, if it isn't Phee Noor! 1' : Looks like he finally got that '40 Ford on the road. fHe probably had one eye on the road and the other on a . ' ' pair of legs.J As we glance away we see two Air Force uniforms striding toward us. Jerry Foster and Elmer Willis are f fr., S ,' G ... :V X still buddies. The class of '56 has their share of 20 year men! Bud Quimby is a ONE STAR GENERAL in the Marine Corps. Brother! We pity those Boots that are in his regiment. He probably has them for breakfast. This seems to be a class reunion! Marilyn Hill and Elaine Strong are just coming out of Room 36. Wonder if they're still telephone operators? We'll ask them. . . . . . Excuse us, Sir. Well, Ken Selmer! It looks as it he broke another finger. Coaching must be real rough! Now where did those girls go? We'll try this room ...... Oops, Children's Ward. Isn't that Lillian Kalinen? It sure is, visiting her sick pupils. Wonder where Derry Hazelton is now? lt seems as if I've heard something about her lately. Oh yes, Derry and Eleanor Cook recently won the S100, 000 Question and now -fi! All are taking a trip around the world. Seems ff!- as if once an honor student, always an I T. honor student! flncidently, Phil Plumb Y 6-M must be doing well in the enginneering field, as he sponsors the show! Mmmmm, looks, brains, and , J :fy money. Unbeatable combinationly L2-1 + - The model on the cover of this maga- X 'H L i fwffl zine looks familiar. Ah, Norma Patch. She has taken M. M. 's place I as the G. 1. 's Favorite Pin-up. This article on the Wife ZLQX jil l 1 K5 of the Year' is X Q ' interesting. Well, what do you know! Pat Wilkins, Gail Spaulding, and Virginia McGrotty are all tied for first place. We must congratulate them! They're naturals for the honor. Lucky husbands! There goes an interesting convalescent. It seems Ronnie Betts was giving a demonstration of the way he used to conduct class meetings and got carried away! fOn a stretcherlj W iilfff ffl? T 5 ' Y M N. l f f n H C 1.3. x Whisk F 'T 17 ' 'I R 56 l Say, remember the class play? It's too bad Barb Gosselin and Joe Swett didn't go on with acting careers. But Barb is a good medical secretary and Joe owns his own 800 acre farm. Gay Gabert going ' ' into the engineering field was also a loss to Broadway. - , - Speak of the devill L1i u'-- ,-vt, He11o, Fay. Waiting to see someone, too? ':! : -'Cru N . 'nn 't K Speaking of the . H play, whatever happened to Bev and Nan Sherwin? They're next-door '?6':Q35: -- :J 2 neighbors now and Bev is still sure she and Nan should - v q:,: have been cops instead of housewives. Here's a cute ad. Alterations altered. Why, Grace Davis has her own dress shop, right across from Joan Finnegan's Beauty Salon. Ioanie sure is an ad for herself. Hey, here's an ad by Betty Davis. She must be doing well in the art field. Her work is in every popular magazine. That trooper seems to recognize an old friend. Yes Melvin Stowell. What's he .t ' gb Wiki? doing here? Ambulance driver?l At last he always has the right of wayl x ' Tenshun! A Wave Captain 1S coming this way. Marge Duprey! With her daughter? No, that's petit Pat Russell. Looks as if they're waiting to see someone. Lois Griswold and Gloria Spaulding are here, too. They are managing a famous girls' basketball team in their spare time. Their team recently defeated the Celtics 101 to 17. Goodness, look at that tie! Oren Baker, of all people! He owns a G. E. plant in the Belgium Congo. He and Norma Evans are the traveling members of the class. Norma is a missionary in Siberia. Uane Foster is affiliated with Oren. She sells trucks to the natives. I understand she's a pretty good mechanic.J WT . 1 Another familiar face. Carol Cole. Carol was conducting an outdoor concert and was hit by a flying Q. saucer Qdriven by Sandra Parker. Sandra always had a secret urge to fly.J li' T lr' It looks as if Jackie Holden and Wilma Grover are the wealthiest members of the class of '56. Wilma is very wealthy, having discovered uranium in the Proctersville Gulf, and Jackie is running a home for ' orphaned beagles. Marian Hershberg is now running an ultra-ritzy resort for retired millionaires. ' ' J W - o Visiting hours at last! Here's the room. He11o, Mr. Newton. We just ran into some members of your favorite class, the class of '56. They're all waiting to visit you. Mr. Newton! Come backl You're in no condition---l MISTER NEWTON! !
