The Cedar Hill district has made a worthy contribution to C. H. S. in the person of Bill, one of those carefree fellows who never worried too much about studies or marks, yet managed to make the grade. With his wonderful personality and friendly manner Bill has won many friends while at C. H. S. If he is not working diligently he can always be seen riding around town. Bill plans to attend Worcester Trade School in the fall, and the best wishes of the Class of '58 go with him. History Circle, Senior Boys' Club. HCAHJCJ .XJVLJPZ A friendly heart wins many friends.

SENIOR Although in years to come We'll always remember the fun, Whether we're far or near, .4 ,fag x We'll always remember our Senior Year! After spending an enioyable summer, the Class of '58 returned in the fall to mount the steps of good old C. H. S. for the last time together. This was it for most of us: ten months more and that long-dreamed-for day would be here. However, between September and .lune many exciting things were to happen to us. We started the fall with annual events: homework, football, and dances. As usual, we held our class elections. In this important election we placed our confidence in the following leaders: Michael Freel, President, Ellen Henighan, Vice-President, Ann Philbin, Sec- retary, Richard Andre, Treasurer. As a class our spirit was terrific. We all worked together as one. This was the reason why so many of our proiects as a class were so successful. Our main proiects, during the senior year, were selling Christmas cards and conducting dances. This is how the Class of '58 got rich quick. The many dances which we did hold in the Town Hall were quite popular with the entire student body, but, without the eFforts of our class advisors, Mr. and Mrs. Mc- Namara and the ever-faithful Mr. Walter Henig- han, these dances wouldn't have been possible. To them we can say thanks a lot for all the fun you let us have. On the social calendar, football and the Thanksgiving Show came and went. Inter-Class Dramatics Competition finally saw us win a long-deserved award for our production French Toast. Then as we bluffed our way through Mid-Years, we arrived at the time every senior looks forward to since his freshman days- the eventful last five months. However, somebody must have read our plans, because the main por- tion of the school burned to the ground on February 6, l958, just two days after Mid-Years had ended. lt seemed that now we would get that long-needed new school. In the meantime, they had to put us in school somewhere, and senior headquarters were made in the Maior McRell School on Walnut Street. At first the fire seemed a joke to most of us, but it didn't take us long to realize that the memories of three and a half years together went down with the school. Never- theless, after a month's delay, we returned to C. H. S. on March 3. lt was great fun, running from Major McRell to Corning, to the Armory, and the remaining Deitzman and Annex, particu- larly in the slushy snow, the spring rains, and the warm summer sunshine. We had our own Uni- versity ot Clinton , and this extra exercise could be classified as our physical education period, especially since cars were banned from use dur- ing school. Finally, basketball, baseball, track, the Senior Hop, Assemblies, and Clinton High School all became memories as of June 25, l958. That was the last night we stood together as a class. This was the last class ever to graduate from the original Clinton High School.

ULQFLJ gdef Make every bargain clear and plain That none may afterwards complain. Charlie is not only one of the smallest boys in our class, but he is also one of the friendliest. He has won many friends with his genialty. He does not partici- pate actively in sports, but he is an ardent admirer of all sports. Charlie never believed in studying too much, but he got along all right iust the same. He has not made his plans for the future known to us, but we all know that if he strives for his goal, he will certainly reach it.
