Senior Class History The class of 1946 entered Deering with much confusion and bewilder- ment, but after much heckling from our upperclassmen we managed to adjust ourselves to the routine as many have done before us. Although we were deprived of a Freshman Reception, we managed to make friends with our teachers. Our first president was William Leavitt, assisted by Lorene Andersen, vice president, Eugene Wells, treasurer, and Jocelyn Frost, secretary. Our most promising athletes of that year were Bill Edes, Bob Orr, Bob Brooks, Tommy Aceto, Eugene Sturgeon, Dick Gimbel, and Chester Holmes. In our sophomore class, we were again led by Bill Leavitt, with Pat Hanson, vice president, Bob Orr, treasurer, and Lorene Andersen, secre- tary, assisting him. This year we were especially proud of our girls' basketball team with such able-bodied girls as Helen Andrew, Rita Lee, Dot johnson, and Millie Wight. Field Hockey, too, claimed such steadies as Betty Marshall, Helen Tighe and Millie Wight. Our junior year we were guided by President Tom Aceto, Vice President Jane Fitzgerald, Treasurer Bill Edes, and Secretary Millicent Wight. Cheerleaders chosen this year from our junior class were Pat Hanson, jane Fitzgerald, Rupert Westcott, and Carl Barker. Our greatest talent of the stage was Doug Duperreault, Pat Hanson, Jocey Frost, Carl Barker, and Ray Earls. The Student Council has prospered under the capable hands of Richard Karcher. Dick also holds the position of Major in Cadets. Amethyst and Ram-Blings,', too, have prospered under the guidance of Van Stevens and Edward Graham respectively. Class election of officers for the senior class brought forth Albert Goon, president, Edward Hanley, vice president, Dick Gimbel, treasurer, and Beverly Gallagher, secretary. We wish to express our thanks to our faculty advisors Mr. Arad Linscott and Mr. Amos Hawkes, for their valuable advice and assistance throughout our stay at Deering. BEVERLY GALLAGHER, Secretary
