CLASS HISTORY Recently while rummaging through some old Chronicles in the files of Coe-Brown Academy, I came across several that looked particularly familiar. Why yes. they were the very ones edited during the year I attended C. B. N. A. As I turned to the page entitled “Class of 1953,” a smile immediately came upon my face, for I remembered in the fall of 1949 how twenty scared but brave freshmen entered this “institution of higher learning.” Our first big event was the election of officers as follows: President Marilyn Sherman Vice-President Kenneth Magoon Secretary Janet Gates Treasurer Joy Wiley Chronicle Reporter Joanne Tuttle We were glad to elect Mr. Fitts as an honorary member of our class instead of just adviser. I’m sure that none of us as Freshmen will forget September 23. I hat was the date of our initiation. We certainly looked funny. The girls were prac- tically roasting in their winter underwear, and the boys, in the other extreme, were freezing in their girls’ shorts and halters. What a sight we must have been! The biggest highlight of our first year was our social held on March 10. The program included the Strafford County Jamboree Gang heard over Radio Station WWNH and Ted White, heard daily over WMUR. We were well represented in sports our first year, even though very few of us were able to make the varsity teams. In baseball l ed Geers sported a uniform. In softball Joy Wiley, Pearl Ycaton, Marilyn Tuttle and Lyn Sherman were members of the second team. Ken Magoon and Norman Dukette were members of the cross country team who helped to win the Southeastern League Championship and third place in the State competition. Ted Geers and Cliff Bane played with the J. V. basketball team. Marilyn Tuttle, Lyn Sherman and Joanne Tuttle made the volleyball team. Joy Wiley and Marilyn Tuttle were able to capture a position on the cheer- ing squad. Marilyn Tuttle and Joy Wiley were also members of girls’ track. All in all we enjoyed our first year at C. B. N. A. and were patiently awaiting for the title of the “Honored Sophs” to be bestowed upon us. SOPHOMORE YEAR If I correctly remember, this honor came none too soon. When we en- tered once again the doors of C. B. N. A., not as meek freshmen but proud sopho- mores, we were only nineteen strong. During the summer we lost Ronald Fen- erty, Janet Gates, and Norman Dukette, but we welcomed Alberta Witham and Doug Wallace as new members. At our first class meeting the following officers were elected: President Ted Geers Vice-President Alberta Witham Secretary Pearl Yeaton Treasurer Clifford Bane Chronicle Representative Kenneth Magoon Student Council Lyn Sherman and Farrell Miner 10
