SENICR CLASS HISTORY We, the Class of 195 0, have had our share of studies and more than our share of fun. Four years ago we entered Deering, and in our enthusiasm and school spirit we chose Neil Rideout to lead us through our first year of bewilderment and wonder. Assisting him were Jean Driscoll, Bob Bean, Jean Swett, Ellie Briggs, Kathleen Zeiner, and Dwight Harvie. Our Sophomore year saw Buddy Cook as President, Joyce Hobbs, Norma Smaha, Jean Swett, Marilyn SeeHusen, Speed Valente, and Earl Harriman as the other officers. 'iSpeed Valente presided our Junior year. Serving on his staff of officers were Kathleen Zeiner, Jean Swett, Norma Smaha, Marilyn SeeHusen, Jean Hassett, and Buddy Cook. ' Now we have past our Senior year. Neil Rideout was our President, Norma Smaha, Vice President, Buddy Cook, Treasurer, Marilyn SeeHusen, Secretary, and Jean Hassett, Speed Valente, and Charlie Cameron, Executive Committee. Our 1950 class is a versatile one. We have our Thespians: Charlotte Moreshead, Phil Nectow, Dottie Bernstein, Danny Stevens, Kathleen Zeiner, and Will Rogers. We have our athletes: Connie Baade, Marilyn Huskins, Arlene Kidder, Pat Knapp, Dot Laming, Norma Smaha, and Jean Swett, who have completed a three year winning streak in basketball and two undefeated years in field hockey. Gur football players were Speed Valente, who made All-America, Dick Baake, Bounce,' Hodgkins, Earl Harri- man, Warren Swan, Dave Hibbard, Buddy Cook, Neal Bradstreet, and Dick McLean. Basketball saw Dave Molko, Bobby Whitmore,'Buddy Cook, Charlie Cameron, and Bounce,' Hodgkins. We have our cheerleaders: Louise Harrington, Joanne Young, Lillian Murphy, Kathleen Zeiner, Gregory Lyden, and Dwight Harvie. We have our AMETHYST Editor, Dwight Harvieg Ramblings Editor, Lorrie Gannon, and their faithful workers: Joanne Green, Marilyn Percival, Mary Johonnett, Jean West, Linda Brow, and Jack Mullin. We have our scholars: Nancy Cohen, Harriet Serlick, Lois McCarthy, Zilla Maddox, Allen Bingham, and Richard Simmons. We have our musicians: Joyce Hobbs, Joan Graeff, Barbara Mitchell, Jimmy Huff, Ellie Briggs, Geraldine Kimball, and Faye Levinsky. The last caption will include everyone who has not already been mentioned. We have our friends and all-round good sports. Now we are ready to leave the green halls of Deering. We have lived four perfect years in a beautiful school. We wish to thank all of our teachers, classmates, and class advisors for their understanding ways and the links they have furnished in our golden chain of friendship. Respectfully submitted, MARILYN SEEHUSEN, Secretary.
