DODGE'S HOUSE FOR A PICNIC LUNCH. AFTER THE LUNCH, WE HELD A MEETING AND VOTED TO SEND $3,00 TO THE WORLD CHRISTMAS FUND. The club members voted to have chapter mothers this YEAR, AND MRS. MERLE BURKLUND AND MRS, HELEN SHERMAN WERE CHOSEN. THEY WILL CORT US ON OUR TRIPS. ATTEND OUR MEETINGS AND ES MARLENE, WAS CHOSEN AS STATE PARLIAMENTARIAN AND WENT TO WASHINGTON, D. C., TO THE NATIONAL CONFER- ENCE. A FEW OF THE GIRLS AND MRS.DODGE ATTENDED THE STATE CONFERENCE IN ALSTEAD IN THE FALL, AND BROUGHT BACK MANY HELPFUL AND INTERESTING SUGGESTIONS. A Christmas party was held in the auditorium before vacation. During April, the club sponsored, to- gether with the F. F. a., a baked bean supper for THE PUBLIC. THIS VENTURE PROVED MOST SUCCESSFUL AND ENJOYABLE. THE CLUB HAD A VERY FULL YEAR, AND PLANS TO DO EVEN MORE NEXT YEAR. F o F. jA. The much-to-do chapter of the f. F. a., held their FIRST MEETING ON NOV. 17, AND ELECTED OFFICERS. THE CLUB IS COMPOSED OF TEN MEMBERS AND PLANS ARE BEING MADE TO INITIATE SIX MORE. OUTSIDE PROJECTS ARE CARRIED ON DURING THE YEAR TO HELP DEFER THE EXPENSES OF THE CLUB. THEY INCLUDE AN APPLE SPRAY PROGRAM, MAPLE SUGAR PROJECT, AND LIGHT TRUCKING. OUR FIRST VENTURE OF THE NEW YEAR WAS PICKING,PACKING, AND SELLING AN APPLE CROP FROM FROM THE SCHOOL-OPERATED ORCHARD. THIS ORCHARD CONSISTS OF ABOUT THIRTY FULL GROWN BALDWIN TREES, WE PICKED AND HARVESTED THE CROP WHICH CONSISTED OF ABOUT A HUNDRED BUSHELS OF FIRST-GRADE FRUIT. WE PLAN TO INCREASE THIS ORCHARD AND SOME HEADWAY WAS MADE Bf THE PLANTING OF A DOZEN NEW FRUIT TREES. The Maple sugar project is our latest venture, and PLANS ARE WELL UNDER WAY FOR A SUCCESSFUL SEASON. The club made arrangements for the use of a hundred MAPLE TREES, AND WE SECURED THE USE OF AN EVAPORA- TOR. AN EIGHT BY FOUR ARCH AND A SUGAR HOUSE WERE BUILT BY THE MEMBERS. DONATIONS OF SAP BUCKETS WERE MADE BY PEOPLE OF THE TOWN,WHILE OTHER EQUIP- MENT THAT WAS NEEDED, WAS PURCHASED THROUGH THE CLUB TREASURER. WE HOPE THAT NEXT YEAR OUR PROJECTS WILL BE JUST AS SUCCESSFUL AS THIS YEAR'S,AND JUST AN ENJOYABLE TO UNDERTAKE. TRI-HI-Y The Tri-hi-Y enjoyed a lively social calendar this YEAR. AMONG THEIR EVENTS WAS THE HAYRIDE ALONG ONE OF THE DIRT ROADS. THE GIRLS TOOK THE LEAD AND IN- VITED THE YOUNG MEN OF THEIR HEARTS . REFRESH- MENTS AND DANCING COMPLETED AN EVENING OF FUN AND FROL IC. FOLLOWING THIS VENTURE WAS A ROLLER SKATING PARTY IN MANCHESTER WHICH WAS ENJOYED BY ALL ATTENDING. The club sent four representatives to the state MEETING AT GILFORD. THE GIRLS ATTENDED BANQUETS AND LECTURES. THE FINALE OF THE WEEK-END EVENTS WAS A DANCE WHICH WAS SPONSORED BY THE STATE CLUB. AS ONE OF THEIR PROJECTS, THE TRI-HI-Y ERS DO- NATED $3.00 to the World Christmas Fund. A BANQUET WAS HELD ADDED THE FINISHING During the latter part of may IN THE AUDITORIUM, AND THIS TOUCH TO A GALA SEASON. Hbnjc xfmlj YiXXf Rttcntian « DRAMATICS As Shakespeare said, The play's the thing, Sure- ly NO OTHER CLASS HAS HAD AS MUCH PLEASURE IN PRESENTING ACTS OP DRAMA AS THE CLASS OF '50, IN OUR FOUR YEARS, WE HAVE PUT ON FOUR PLAYS, THE LATTER OF WHICH WAS ENTERED IN A STATE CONTEST, During our Freshman year, we presented Billy's First date , considering the fact that it was the first play we had ever put on, an exceptionally GOOD JOB WAS DONE WITH THE HELP OF MISS SWAIN, The hobgobblin house , took place in our senior YEAR AND IT WAS BY FAR ONE OF THE BEST PLAYS PRO- DUCED at coe-brown, under the excellent direction OF Mrs, MCLOUD,A SUPERB PERFORMANCE WAS THOROUGH- LY ENJOYED BY THE APPRECIABLE AUDIENCE ATTENDING, The last play presented by we fiftyites was SALLY AND THE VILLAIN , WHICH, ALONG WITH THE SOPHOMORE AND JUNIOR CLASS PLAYS, WAS VERY ENTHU- SIASTICALLY RECEIVED, THIS ONE-ACT PLAY WAS EN- TERED WITH FOUR OTHER SCHOOLS, NAMELY, SPAULOING, Dover, somersworth,and Portsmouth in a state-wide contest. The first performance was given at the SPAULDING HIGH school,where two schools were cho- sen to go to Durham, ratings of excellent, very good, good, and partic- ipating, WERE GIVEN BY THE JUDGES, COE-BROWN RE- CEIVED THE RATING OF VERY GOOD. ACCORDING TO THE AUDIENCE'S REACTION, COE-BROWN SHOULD HAVE TAKEN FIRST PLACE, WE HOPE THAT THE CLASS OF '51 WILL LIVE UP TO OUR ACTING ABILITY AND STANDARDS. IT MEANS MANY HOURS OF PRACTICE AND HARD WORK; BUT IT IS WELL WORTH IT IN THE END. FULL CHORUS Front Row, left to right: K. Magoon,R. Jones,C. Boutin,R. Holmes,S. Milligan, D. Newell,N. Dukette,C.

WHO,IN THEIR STRIKING RED AND WHITE COSTUMES AIDED IN MAKING THIS YEAR’S BASKETBALL SEASON THE COLORFUL, ENJOY- ABLE ONE THAT IT WAS. WITH ZEALOUS PRACTICE, THE GIRLS PERFECTED THE OLD CHEERS, LEARNED NEW ONES, AND WROTE AND ACTED OUT SOME VERY ORIGINAL ONES. THROUGH SNOW, SLEET, AND RAIN—-NO MATTER WHAT THE WEATHER---YOU WOULD INEV- ITABLY FIND THE CHEERLEADERS AT THE TEAM'S SIDE TO CHEER THE BOYS ON TO VICTORY. AFTER WINNING SECOND PRIZE IN THE COMPETITION ON FIELD Day, HERE AT THE ACADEMY--THE CHEERLEADING SQUAD WAS ENTERED IN A STATE CONTEST, COMPETING WITH TWELVE OTHER SCHOOLS. THE CONTEST TOOK PLACE AT DOVER HIGH SCHOOL AUDITORIUM, AND THOUGH THEY DIDN'T PLACE IN THE FINALS, THEY MADE AN EXCELLENT SHOW ING. WITH THE PARTING OF FIVE VALUABLE ASSETS, NAMELY Dorothy Whynot, Betty macCullum, Pat Brower, joanne GANTNER AND JUNE LEONE, THE AQUAD WILL BE DEPLETED IN NUMBER BUT NOT IN SPIRIT. THEY LEAVE BEHIND THEM, THREE REGULARS AND TWO SUBS. TO CARRY ON. NEXT YEAR WILL BE ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL ONE FOR THE Girls in red and white . VOLLEYBALL The volleyball team played two games with Epping, AND LOST BOTH GAMES. THE GIRLS GOT SOME WORTHWHILE POINTERS AND WITH MORE PRACTICE AND TEAM SPIRIT, NEXT YEAR'S TEAM SHOULD BE ON TOP. The team loses its captain, Laura Palmer, through GRADUATION, THIS LOSS WILL CERTAINLY BE FELT NEXT FALL.

WE ARE STILL HANDICAPPED BY THE LACK OF A GYM FOR PRACTICE OR HOME GAMES. WE WON TWO OUT OF A TOTAL OF THIRTEEN GAMES WHICH IS REMARKABLE SINCE WE ONLY STARTED PLAYING THIS SPORT LAST YEAR, WE CERTAINLY WON'T BE THE UNDERDOG BEFORE MANY YEARS HAVE PASSED, AS OUR JUNIOR VARSITY RACKED UP SIX WINS AGAINST FIVE LOSSES, FOR THE VARSITY, RALPH GRAHAM AND DON BICKFORD LED THE TEAM ON THE OFFENSE. THE FORMER COMPILED A NEAT 10 POINT PER GAME AVERAGE WHILE DON WAS VERY CLOSE BEHIND. DEFENSIVELY, CLINT MINER, RALPH TWOMBLY, AND BOB REIS STARRED, WHILE PAUL GUPTILL'S ALL- AROUND PLAY WAS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR, DESPITE THE FACT THAT HE IS THE SHORTEST MEMBER OF THE SQUAD. WE AGAIN WISH TO EXTEND OUR APPRECIATION TO ST. JOHNS HIGH SCHOOL FOR THE USE OF THEIR GYM WHICH ENABLED US TO HAVE A FEW PRACTICES. CROSS-COUNTRY THE BEST CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM IN THE HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL IS THE BEST DESCRIPTION OF THIS TEAM. IT WON FIVE MEETS AND LOST ONLY ONE. IT ANNEXED THE CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE SOUTH-EASTERN LEAGUE AND PLACED THIRD IN THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP MEET AT THE UNIV- ERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE. THE TEAM WAS SPARKED BY DON MACCALLUM AND HARLEY FLORENCE BUT ALL MEMBERS OF THE SQUAD CONTRIBUTED HEAVILY TO THE TEAM'S victories. Steadman Milligan will be lost through GRADUATION. WE LOOK FORWARD TO ANOTHER BANNER SEA- SON NEXT YEAR AND POSSIBLY THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP. SOFTBALL Front Row, left to right: J. Mifflin,P. Brower,L. Palmer, Capt., J. Leone,D. Yeaton. Back Row: E.

BASEBALL The outlook for the 1950 season was much better THAN THE PREVIOUS YEARS. FOR ONCE THE TEAM HAD AN AMPLE AMOUNT OF VETERANS AND SOME PROMISING NEW- COMERS. The spirit that they lacked last season CAN BE SEEN THIS YEAR. MR, TOLL GAVE THE 80YS SOME POINTERS ON FIELDING AND BATTING FORM WHICH SHOULD HELP THEM A GREAT DEAL. This year's schedule has been organizedwith a game EVERY THREE OR FOUR DAYS, AND READS AS FOLLOWS: MAY 2 RAYMOND (THERE) 5 Farmington (there) 9 FPPING (here) 12 ALTON (HERE) 16 NUTE (THERE) 19 RAYMOND (HERE) 23 Farmington (here) 26 epping (there) 29 ALTON (THERE) JUNE 2 NUTE (HERE) 6 WARNER (HERE) The possibility of a game in Vermont if the team DOES WELL HAS ADDED TO THE BOYS' ENTHISUASM, SOFTBALL THE GIRLS' SOFTBALL TEAM IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION THIS YEAR. WE HAVE SIX GIRLS LEFT FROM LAST YEAR'S TEAM, SOME NEW EQUIPMENT AND PLENTY OF ENTHUSIASUM AND COOPERATION. WITH LAURA PALMER AS OUR CAPTAIN WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO FOUR WINS AND NO LOSSES.
