HISTORY FRESHMAN YEAR We entered Coe-Brown Northwood Academy in September of 1960, with 13 boys and 7 girls. Our first order of business was to elect class officers and the results were: President...........................................Richard Rae Vice President...................................Emerson Densmore Secretary.........................................Rebecca Johnson Treasurer........................................Margaret Johnson Student Council.....................................Beverly Ross .................................Kenneth Brackett The next event was our long-awaited and long-dreaded Freshman Initiation. During the day we found it was impossible to escape from the Superior Sophomores with their foolish little tasks for us to do. At night, we performed silly stunts to the delight of upperclassmen and parents. Boy, were we glad when that night was over! The seniors' Christmas dance was the first event to be held in the new gymnasium. Most of our class attended as it gave us our very first opportunity to demonstrate to everyone how grown-up we could act. Participants in sports this year were Susan Nelson, Margaret Johnson, Rebecca Johnson, Priscilla Twombly, and Beverly Ross in softball; in baseball: Emerson Densmore, Carl Elliott, and Daniel Stevens; in volleyball: Marga- ret Johnson, Rebecca Johnson, and Beverly Ross. Two of our classmates made the cheering squad: Laurie Blanchard and Rebecca Johnson. Emerson Densmore went out for basketball. We took part in the Annual Coronation Ball; our lovely candidate was Beverly Ross. Although she looked like a real princess, her classmates didn't sell enough chances and tickets so she came in fourth. The big event of the spring was our Freshman Social. We held a square dance under the direction of Bob Bennett. An evening of mixed square and regular dancing provided a fun evening for everybody. Also in the spring, we helped by serving as guides for the official dedication of the new addition to the school -- a task we all enjoyed. During the year, Mike Curran and Gerry Sly joined our class. SOPHOMORE YEAR At the beginning of our Sophomore year we gained nine new members. They were: Priscilla Farrar, Norman Dodge, Donald Hersey, Lorilea Jaderborg, Beverly Tuttle, Shirley McGowen, William McGowen, Dennis Schwab, and Thomas Veinote.
