Tom's contributions toward a better srhool have been many, over and above the call of duty. No job was too large or too small. Tom has lent us all a helping hand, whether we lost wallets or gloves, got locked out, or had our mats locked in, needed furniture moved or repaired, spilled something, or had to have the gym floor cleaned for a dance . . . Tom has set a high standard for his office, and his retirement from Deering's halls will leave a place hard to fill. XVe of the Yearbook Staff and the Senior Class take great pride in dedicating our 1953 AMETHYST to Tom, with our thanks and best wishes for the years to come. The Principal y Speaks .. 4' iv F NIR. CAkLr1'roN I.. XVu:mx 1'r1'm'ip11I M ..to the Class of 1953 eniors: You have made a fine contribution to the best traditions of Deering. For a y'ear you have been leaders in a variety of enterprises. Now you start again as beginners in a world of commerce and industry, in military service. or as first-year pupils in inf stitutions of higher education. May the transition be a smooth one and may the ex- periences you have had at Deering, in the classroom and in your clubs and teams, serve as a sound basis for your new endeavors. It is my hope that you have acquired the rudiments of the skills you will use in your future vocations, and an even greater hope that the virtues of loyalty, coopera- tion, and enduring faith have also had strong beginnings.

YOUNG SUB-,MASTER Am 44,46 ADMINI TRATION n four years at Deering every student has some encounter with each member of the school's Administrative Staff. Deer- ing is fortunate in having a first-class staff of directors and problem-solvers to aid any and all pupils in answering individ- ual question ol educational, social, and vocational matters. Mr. Young, our Sub-Master, is always available to hear the problems of Deering's boys and give helpful advice. Miss Dol- ley, the Dean of Girls, serves the girls in the same capacity. Miss Pitt, Deering's College and Vocational Guidance Direct- or, is the contact of both boys and girls with College Admis- sion Directors, as well as being an adviser and consultant on what college to choose, college scholarships, and vocational choices. The AMETHYST Staff and the Senior Class take this opportunity to thank Deering's Administration for their kind service in our high school years. 46 MISS EDITH S.

A pleasant by-product is the good fellowship enjoyed by its ninety-odd members at their meetings the first Tuesday of each month in Room 105, followed by tea in the Household Economics Suite. A 1002, membership of all eligible mothers, of both first and second band pupils, is the ultimate goal. Officers for 1952-1953 are President, Mrs. Alvin A. Morrisong Vice-President, Mrs R Freeman Etberid e r Secretar Mrs. Donald P. Thurstong and Treas- ' s-J'-1 Y- urer, Mrs. Earl S. Hyler. Money-raising projects for this year have included a rummage sale, a food sale, the collection at the Thanksgiving game, silver teas at the homes of several members, the silver collection at the Fathers' Concert, a joint concert with Ed- ward Little High School Band of Auburn, sale of tickets for our Annual Concert in City Hall, for our guest appearance at the New England Mens' Singing Club Festival, and for the presentation of the United States Navy Band, arranged joint- ly with the Orchestra Mothers' Club and with the Portland High School Band and Orchestra Club. Members of the club have given out instruments and uniforms, handled the sizable insurance arrangements for so large a group, and acted as chaperones whenever the band attended out of town events, such as the football game at Sanford the joint concert with Edward Little High School Band at Auburn, and the Western Maine Festival at Brunswick. Thus, in spite of the tragic loss of our beloved director, Mr. joseph L. Caudreau, at the very beginning of the year's work, the band and its parent sponsors have gone on, under the able guidance of Mr. Clinton W. Craffam, jr., lo a full and satisfying season. MRS. RYERSON PATHFINDERS' P.T.A. I The Pathfinders' Parent-Teacher Association of Deering High School and Lincoln junior High School is a local unit of the Maine Congress of Parents and leachers. It was organized in 1950 to take the place of the former Pathfinders' Mothers' Club. One of the main objects of the association is to maintain a strong link be- tween the home and the school, and to bring into closer relations the parents and the teachers. .For the current year of 1952-1953 the officers are experimenting with a policy of no money raising projects, hoping that the payment of dues will cover the necessary expenses. Officers for 1952-1953 are: President ..,. . . . ......... . lst. Vice President 2nd Vice President Recording Secretary . . . . . Corresponding Secretary . . . Treasurer ..., . ....... .. .. MRS. MORRISON ORCHESTRA MOTHERS' CLUB The Deering High School Orchestra Mothers' Club was organized in 1939 with the purpose of furthering the interests of the Orchestra and assisting in its activities. The growth and accomplishments of the Club have grown with the Orchestra. Membership this year is 49. Uniforms and instruments are supplied when needed. This year a bass drum and one uniform jacket were purchased. just before school started, we were greatly saddened by the passing of our beloved director, Mr. joseph L. Caudreau. This was also a handicap in getting started on our season's program. However, under the able leadership of our new Director of Music, Mr. Clin- ton XV. Cralfam, jr., our orchestra made its first appearance at a joint concert with Portland High School Orchestra at The National Education Week Program at City Hall.

Senior Class Hisfory ith fondest memories of the hap- piest tlays of our lives, the illustrious Class of 1953 leaves Deering. As we pause a mo- ment to recall our past four years, we re- member our classmates and our considerate teachers, our studies, and the unforgettable associations and incidents that have made our high school days happy, inspiring, and beneficial. ln the year 1949 we made our first ap- pearance as mere Freshmen. Led by Fletch- er Means, Class President, Marilyn Louns- bury, Vice President, Jack Reynolds, Treas- urer, Bob Gamble, Secretary, and the Ex- ecutive Committee - Shirley Jo Chilcoat, George Crockett, and Judy Miller, we stag- ed our first social affair, the Freshman Re- ception. Sophomores all, we elected Ted Kurtz, President, Dave Goodwin, Vice Pres- ident, john Andrew, Treasurer, Margie Panetti, Secretary, and Executive Commit- tee - Pete Profenno, Sally Neilson, and Jim Smaha. The Sophomore Hop, the first one to be held at Deering, was our big under- taking that year. Finally reaching the long awaited level of actual upperclassmen in our junior year we found john Andrew di- recting activities, ably assisted by Vice Pres- ident, Fletcher Means, Treasurer, Lenny Nelson, Secretary, Merle Royte, and Dave Lewis, Dave Goodwin, and Ted Kurtz on the Executive Committee. Now nearing the end of our career here as purple scholars, we find Fletcher Means presiding, with the aid of Bob Johnson, Vice President, Ted Kurtz, Treasurer, Jan- et Kimball, Secretary, and Dave Goodwin, Margaret Panetti, and Jim Smaha on the Executive Committee. Of course no school has a winning team without a squad of spirited cheerleaders, and from the class of '53, leading the cheers, were Margie Panetti, Sally Neilson, jean Hastings, Audrey Haugaard, Merle Royte, and Karen Thorsell. We've had our share of brilliant students too in Bill Adam, Nancy Hodgkins, Dave Vaughan, Audrey Haugaard, Nancy Pentz, Stuart Cope, and many more. Earl Hyler went to Europe as an exchange student, and we were equally proud of Sonny Gam- ble, who won a trip to Africa with his Mer- chant Marine theme. And we'l1 never forget the tumultuous Deering High Band with such talented mu- sicians as Bill Gaudet, Glen Goffin, Doris Gagnon, Shirley Jo Chilcoat, Al Morrison, and others. To the AMETHYST staff members and Editor Al Morrison also goes much ap- plause for a hard job well done. QEditor's Note: Three cheers to janet Kimball and Staff for the best Ramblings yetlj Yes, we've spent perhaps the happiest days of our lives here at Deering, and the knowledge we've acquired and the friends we've made will remain with us for the rest of our lives. We appreciate all the school and the faculty has done for us, and hope some day we may make old Deering proud to have held the class of 1953. Respectfully submitted, Janet E.

Barnes 49 T 52 fx l vm' Varsiiy Faofball Because of the expert coaching and understanding of Mr. Caminiti and his aides, the wonderful work of our managers, the faithful rooting of our school- mates and alumni, and the never-say-die spirit of our team, Deering High ended its varsity football season with a respectable record of four victories and five de- feats. This record, however, is much better than it seems, for it brought Deering out of the doldrums of a winless season the year before, and proved that even with its fifth coach in as many years, our team would never give up. Deering started the season with Portland, an ancient rival which was sup- posed to be one of the best in the state. Our team threw a big scare into the Bull- dog camp but could not quite overcome the powerful Portland offense. Portland won, 27-19. Our next game saw Deering's first football victory in seventeen con- tests. Proving they were going to be tough for many opposing teams this season, the Rams beat Cheverus, 14-6. Then came Lewiston, one of the better teams in the state. Exhausted from its hard-fought victory over Cheverus, Deering didn't play its usual good game, hence the final score, Lewiston 21- Deering 0. The next Saturday, Deering played powerful South Portland and, with an excellent passing attack, came close to beating the Capers. However, on some decisions the referees weren't on our team's side, and they lost, 21-12. The Rams won their second game the following week by edging out Edward Little in a well played game, 14-13. Deering played one of its very best games in the next encounter, trouncing Sanford, 33-0. Rugged Thornton appeared next on the Deering sched- ule and turned back the Rams, 33-18, showing championship running and block- ing. Rebounding from its fourth seasonal loss, the Purple beat St. Louis with comparative ease, 26-6. Their record all even at four games won and four lost, the Rams prepared themselves for the Turkey Day tussle with powerful Portland. Showing an indomitable spirit and proving that Deering will not be taken lightly from now on, the team outplayed Portland the entire second half, but did not have quite enough time to pull the game out. Final score - Portland 25, Deer- ing 20. A few of the seniors who did an outstanding job this season were Captain Jim Smaha, Pete Profenno, Bob Roast, Buddy White, Ralph Young, Romeo Ne- grini, jack Reynolds, Sam DiPhi1ippo, Doug Reed, Fletcher Means, and Glen Coffin. Underclassmen who will boost the team greatly in the future were jerry Davis, Dick Nutting, Bill Wooldridge, Bill DiBiase, Chase Rand, Sewall Miller, Paul Lewis, Don Lary, Hoagy Carmichael, Jerry Kendall, and Dick Gelinas. The entire team and its coaching staff wish to extend its thanks to the manag- ers, Steve Dougherty, Danny Harmon, Bernie Benson, Frank Fleischer, and Bill Miller, for their faithful work. Congratulations to coaches Caminiti, Speirs, Vllashburn, and Manley for a job well donelll! A O 4 'H 9 1 . R. Nutting 33-34 A ' S. Miller 30 Junior Varsity Football Although it did not have as successful a season as it had anticipated, this year's Jayvee football team, under the capable guidance of Coach Russ Washburn, produced a number of promising boys who should figure highly in Coach Camin- iti's varsity plans for next year. The -Iayvee offense featured outstanding brok- en-field running by flashy half-backs Dick Gel- inas, jim Penza, jim Redlon, Don Keith, and Chase Rand. These boys not only proved cap- able of picking up sizeable yardage when need- ed, but also were bears on defense, especially Rand. The line-busting slants of fullbacks Ron- nie Broadhurst, Jon Stevens, and Dick Low were invaluable when that extra yard or two was needed. The Jayvees had three promising quart- erbacks, Tom Vail, Mike Stockwell, and Art Atherton, all of whom exhibited fine judgment in their play selection, and proved adept ball handlers and passers. Starring in this year's line were ends Coot Coolidge, jim Conologue, and Bob Bruns. They were adept pass receivers and defensive stalwarts. At the tackles were solid Bruce Moulton, John Jensen, and Harry Kerr, who were dependable two-way performers. Guards Paul Lewis, Phil O'Brion, and Bob Palmer made opposing quar- terbacks think twice before running plays through the guard slots. At center were two very fine performers, Dick Rose and Tom Hodg- kins. Other players who showed promise were the Zenahlik brothers, Joe Parent, Eddie Colley, and Bruce Pratt. The members of the team thank Coach Wash- burn for his patience and understanding. Our progress this year can be attributed to his guid- ance and handling of the team. Freshman Football The Class of 1956 had an outstanding foot- ball team this year. The fine coaching of Pop Manley discovered many good prospects for the varsity in years to COIHC. The freshmen started off their year with a pleasing victory over Portland High's freshmen, 14-0. Then, they were defeated by South Port- land and tied one game with Cheverus. The next game with Portland, Deering won 20-0, but lost the important game to Cheverus, giving Cheverus the Portland crown. Although our boys did not win every game, as freshmen they are promising to bring many victories home to Deering in the future. with Coach Caminiti. On every team, and ours is no exception, there are players in different positions who stand out a little more than the rest. Deering's Frosh had their own standouts too. For instance at full- back there was a boy named Bob Conologue, who could sneak through a line like lightning. At the two halfback positions were Dem- my Morrill and Steve Day, both of whom could get around either end even before our own line could cut down the opponents. Our line, with- out which the ball carrier could not move, con- ,...l..s.. figs 3 ' , ,v The Frosh Squad sisted of all sizes and shapes. At one tackle was Bob Dougherty. At the other was Johnny Plum- mer, both good sized boys. At end were Fred l'Vebber and jack Clements, who differ slightly. jack is barely five feet tall, while Hands XfVeb- ber is a good six feet. There were many other equally good players who will remain nameless at present, but will be heard of more in the com- ing seasons. A 17? unam.a.- Q A L, vi , A in ' ' A W!

MX, 'MJ KW Varsity Cheerleaders Behind every Deering team, winning or losing, are a high spirited group of girls leading the school in the cheers that urge the team to win. Attending every game, and yelling themselves hoarse, the cheer--leaders, with Margie Panetti head- ing their group have had a wonderful year of spirit and accomplishment. Seniors on the squad were Sally Neilson, Jean Hastings, Audrey Haugaard, Merle Royte, and Karen Thorsell. Next year, continuing their Hue work, will be Marilyn Simpson, Pat Hayman, Jean Lunt, Bunny Day, and Annette Lyden. Along with their regular duties, this year the cheerleaders sponsored the first dance of the year, served at the football banquet, were honored at a banquet of their own, and undertook a great many extra projects. Miss Perazzi helped the girls a great deal in her capacity as faculty adviser. Junior Varsity Cheerleaders This year a new cheerleading squad came into existence, cheering the Junior Varsity teams on to victory. Led by Donna X'Villiams, Nancy Carmichael, Judy Iott, Nancy lNIacDougal, and Connie Carleton were our V. cheerleaders. These girls did an excellent job, cheering at all the games for the Junior Varsity teams. Next year, with this period of experience, they will move up to the Varsity line. flljfi.. Girls' Varsity Field Hockey For the second consecutive year the girls' field hockey team ended the season undefeated. Coached by Miss Piacentini, the team showed considerable pro- gress throughout the year, playing a seven game schedule. The line was made up ol' Sally Marden, Evelyn Snodgrass, Rita Ramsay, Captain Squirt Richardson, and Nancy Carmichael, while the backheld was composed of Judy Gulian, Mary Hil- dreth, Mary jane Thomas, lXIarilyn Simpson, Dixie Redlon, and Captain Janet Kimball. Dot Bradstreet and jo Porch subbed in several games. Squirt Richard- son was high scorer for the squad, but teamwork was the inevitable quality that brought them success. The scores: Deering So.

Their squad included Dot Bradstreet, Martha Andrew, Janet Fletch- er, Betty Y'Vinslow, Barbara Goodwin, Judy Butler, in the forward line, and Joan Porch, Carol Buck, Jerry Eldridge, Bev Horsman, Diane Sturgis, Connie Ather- ton, and Sylvia Moore were backs. ,,,t, s, Girls' tennis took its big step in the spring of l952 by organizing a tennis team that played matches with several other schools. Last lall was spent in prac- tice and instruction under the able assistance of Miss Cowan. ln the spring, tournaments among the girls were arranged, and from these the team was select- ed. About l50 girls reported for practice, managed by Betty Hersey and assistants, Janet Davis, Sally Meehan, Nancy X'Vinslow, and Nancy XVhitney. Outstanding players were Evelyn Snodgrass, Judy lirvin, Nancy Hodgkins, Dot Bradstreet, Judy Butler, Shirley Jo Chilcoat, and Jean Skillings. if f 'f 1' ti, is t ll at . 1' S 45 Student Council - H ,, This year the Deering High School Student Council was led by George Crockett. Assisting George were Vice President, Fletcher Means, Secretary, Sally Neilson: Treasurer, Dave Lewis, and clerks Margaret Panetti, Merle Royte, and Marilyn Tarr. fl Each year the Council works with one specific purpose in mind, besides its other activities. This year the main purpose was to raise enough funds to offer a scholarship enabling two foreign students to attend Deering as exchange students. Besides this project, the Council held a sports program based on a system of points for each school sport, the highest scorers of each team winning a trophy, presented by the Council. The Council also t it sold plastic-coated book covers, Deering buttons for the games, and conces- sions at the Deering Memorial Field during the football season. A social calendar was posted on the library bulletin board under the auspices of the Council. On January 24, the Match-Me-Hop was sponsored by the Coun- cil with all proceeds going to the fund for exchange students. Two assemblies were sponsored by the Coun- cil. The first was an assembly for freshmen to acquaint them with the many Deering extra-curricular ac- tivitiesg the second, for the entire student body, to officially install all Council officers, and present all clubs and organizations with their annual charters. On November 21 and 22 Deering was represented at Ed- ward Little High School in Auburn for the State Convention of Student Councils, at which Marilyn Tarr was elected secretary for the coming year. Last November a mock presidential election was held in con- junction with the Forum. The Council also sponsored a Career Week in which representatives of dif- ferent occupational fields in the city came to speak at Deering. A suggestion box was placed in the library where students could place any suggestions that they may have toward making a better school. This year we were happy to have as advisers Miss Joyce and Mr. Rolfe. Their helpful suggestions and advice helped to give the Student Council a very successful year.

The battle raged for many months at great personal sac- rihfe to all involved - ranks fell, secton editors lost weight, girlfriends and boyfriends were neglected, midnight oil was burned by the carload, and the Editor-In-Chief was time and again stopped just short of committing either murder or suicide, or both. But, when the smoke had cleared, the dead had been booked, the rubble cleared away, and the printer's proofs had been received and checked over by the weary staff, life looked a little brighter. Had we lived in vain? we asked ourselves. We decided that only our subscrib- ers could answer that question properly, and they did! The AMETHYST Staff for the hectic year 1953 was quite probably the best ever. However, Mr. El- liott was heard daily bellowing at Al Morrison, the Editor-ln-Chief, who in turn developed quite husky lungs shouting at his staff: jerry Sandler, jim Gibson, and Bill Ledger, Photography, Audrey Haugaard and Shirley .Io Chilcoat, Advertising, Marilyn Lounsbury and Ellen Thompson, Senior Section, George Crockett, Business Manager, Judy Ervin and Nancy Pentz, Circulation, Margaret Mary McCann, Activities and Clubs, Janet Kimball and Fletch Means, Sports, and Margie Panetti and Sally Neilson, Typing. But, it's all over now, we're happy, and we certainly hope that our public feels the same way. Best of luck to the AMETHYST in the years to come. ...M Nhtrvl, X my 5 'RQ ef' N. ,V X. 4 Q 1 K .N,, ,Q I QW f 1. Mr. Linwood S.

Having a new size, and a new format, the paper appeared eight times during the school year. This year, Ramblings has attempted to make the publication the student's paper, and to cover adequately all the happenings of Deering. With the introduction of the Suggestion Box in the library, Ramblings has made a sincere effort to give every student the opportunity to voice his or her opinion in its new column, You Said lt. Covering a variety of activities and interests, we hope you enjoyed Ramblings half as much as we enjoyed preparing it. This year the paper was edited by janet Kimball with the very capable assistance of her associate editors, Nancy Hodgkins, Judith Ervin, and Marilyn Tarr. The financial section of the job was ably hand- led by Susan Brilliant, as Advertising and Business Manager. Marilyn Lounsbury deserves the credit for boosting the circulation considerably, while Mary Ann Easton as Exchange Editor sent the paper to our niany exchanges all over the country. jerry Sandler produced masterpieces in his photography department, and Barbara Webster edited the art work. Ted Kurtz and Evelyn Snodgrass covered boys' and girls' sports, respectively, and Sally Neilson was responsible for the excellent job of tediously typing each issue. Now, as the year has ended and the job is done, Ramblings would like to pause and thank heartily the man who made all this possible, Mr. John McCann, our faculty adviser. His patient, friendly assistance and untiring effort have again guided Ramblings througha successful and happy year. 2 s 5 2 5 ,pr janet Kimball Editor-In-Chief an ,W gk 'V C ,fi tiiiif-'I fx -V I Q is iigx X Mr. John McCann Adviser will X 5-ffiif, as . .K -.

The officers, Dave Goodwin, President, Marilyn Louns- bury, Vice President: Joanna Halpert, Secretaryg and Kenny Starrett, Treasurer: plus our two excellent advisers, Mrs. Gulliver and Mrs. McDonald, worked and planned together the productions you have witnessed and applauded. The talented thespians were helped considerably by the hard labor, effort, and thought, which the Art Club contributed through their original and distinct- ive sets. The success of both the Thanksgiving Play and the Senior Class Play can readily be verified by referring to the tremendous enthusiasm and support with which the audience greeted both plays. The annual Christmas Pageant unfortunately was cancelled by a storm, and the Easter Pageant, due to the illness of Mrs. Gulliver, was replaced by a religious assembly. 4 Q T 3, :pn uFather of the Bride Mr. Banks . ..

Junior Class Hisfory hen we entered the halls of Deer- ing High School in the fall of 1950, we were under the capable lead- ership of Marilyn Simpson, President, Herbie Carmichael, Vice .Presidentg Henry Lalumier, Treasurer, and Betty XVinslow, Secretary. Serving on the Ex- ecutive Committee were Chase Rand, Dot Bradstreet, and Carol Farley. By the fall of 1951, we were headed by Dick Nutting, Prcsiderztg Herbie Car- michael, Vice Presfderztg Betty W'inslow, Trczzsinerg and Marilyn Simpson, Sec- retary. On the Executive Committee were Annette Lyden, Jimmy Tibbetts, and Jerry Davis. lVl1en 1952 rolled around, we were very happy to be called upper classmen. Leading us this year were Sewall Miller, Presidenzfg Herbie Carmichael, Treas- urer, and Joyce Prince, Secretary. On the Executive Committee were Mari- lyn Simpson, Betty l'Vinslow, and Dick Nutting. lVe were very proud this year of hav- ing so many of our boys participating in sports. Running for touchdowns were Sewall Miller, Jerry Davis, Herbie Car- michael, Billy DiBiase, Billy W'ooldridge, Dick Nutting, Dick Kendall, Paul Lew- is, Chase Rand, and Phil O'Brion. On the basketball court were Billy Wooldridge, Dick Nutting, Fred Stone, Gene Gelinas, and Chase Rand. In baseball, Dick Nutting and Don Keith were outstanding performers. Now, let's see what the opposite sex was doing. Playing field hockey were Marilyn Simpson, Evelyn Snodgrass, Sal- ly Marden, Dot Bradstreet, and Rita Ramsay. Keeping up Deering's honor on the basketball court were Rita Ramsay, Mar- ilyn Simpson, Dot Bradstreet, Evelyn Snodgrass and Diane Cleaves. lVe also saw many juniors on the swimming and bowling teams. Loudly representing us at all the games were cheerleaders Pat Hayman, Annette Lyden, Marilyn Simpson, Jean Lunt, and Bunny Day. Every Junior looked forward eagerly to the Junior Prom which was loads of fun for everyone. l'Ve wish to thank our adviser, Mr. Mc- Cann, for his patience and understand- ing in helping each and every one of us. In conclusion, I would like to say that we hope our senior year will be as hap- py and successful as our preceding three have been. Respectfully submitted, Joyce Prince, Secretary, Class of 1954 I.

YOUNG Szllznlzlstw' ow ending his thirty-second year at Deering is the school's hardest working man, our Subinaster, Mr. Ralph B. Young. yVell-known to us all, somehow or other, first or last, during our years at Deering, Mr. Young came to Deering in 1921 to head the Connnercial Department, a job he has held continuously ever since, while doubling and sometimes tripling in other capacities such as school treasurer since 1922, Subinaster since 19411, and Attention, Please since 1949. Mr. Young gave up teaching Coinntercial subjects in 1949 to devote all his time to becoming the perpetual-motion machine that we salute today. YVhy is he our Man of the Year? Not because he has a copy of every issue of the AMETHYST ever published, although that alone deserves niuch applause, but because hereto- fore he has been the unsung hero of the school - the man responsible for inany of the improvements we take for granted, the worthwhile assemblies that get us out ol classes, and inany another project, over and above the call of his actual duty, to make Deering still a better first-class high school. Thanks a lot, Mr. Young, for a job well done! E .1 'Sq' , gQv-2 H V3 x. S X A i 523, 3 X x 5 M AX K 'W if- lk . , ww, 'A w-.B Q , . A Q Qs. at ff?

Goodwin G .Q M : Varsify Baskefball , WV ig, The Deering basketball team, under the superb leadership of Coach Tubby Washburn, showed great talent, spirit, and teamwork during this highly success- ful season. It's impossible to single out one player on the team as a star, for they were all outstanding team players. As the inscription in the gym says, A star player doesn't make a teamg a team makes a star. Seniors who did a wonderful job in their last year of high school basketball were: Captain Bobby johnson, a marvelous team player with a wonderful spirit that held our team together in its toughest moments, especially in the never-to- be-forgotten Cheverus gameg Ted Kurtz, our high-scoring center, who also con- tributed greatly to the team spiritg Bob Roast, our sharp-shooting forward, who, more than once, came through with that timely set shot to bolster the team's forc- es: jack Reynolds, our tall forward who helped considerably off the boards and with his straight shootingg and tall Carl Shible, a valuable asset to any team with his height and ambition. Other Seniors who played well in relief roles were jim Smaha, Dave Good- win, Dan Harmon, and Pete Profenno. junior Bill Wooldridge was a tremen- dous help to the team with his deadly eye, and underclassmen at Deering can look forward to seeing Willy play a lot more basketball next year. Fred Stone, another junior, creditably relieved Ted Kurtz. Sophomore Phil Candelmo, the young- est member of the team, was also an asset with his aggressiveness and steady shooting. And we mustn't forget the excellent job done by the managers, Steve Dough- erty and Bernie Benson. Thanks a lot, boys! fm .l R. Gamble 14 ,ri leaf! ttii 'll ,4 yy . 'ATF D. Harmon 16 Junior Varsity Basketball The junior Varsity basketball squad was com- posed of seven juniors and eight sophomores. Through the untiring efforts of the coach, Mr. Smith, the .Iayvee club compiled a good record, with wins about balancing losses. The team, after one week of practice, turned back the St. Dominics Jayvee quintet, 35-25. Next they suffered a defeat at the hands of the Portland Boys' Club jayvees, 55-50. Following this, the Rams played on the spacious Expo floor against the Westbrook jayvees, and won 36-3-1 on a set shot by Chase Rand with ten sec- onds remaining. The team travelled to Water- ville to deal the Panthers a 51-44 setback. Next on the docket was the trip to Cony, where the boys from Augusta dealt the Deering five a 50- 44 loss. The Boys' Club Jayvee League opened with South Portland knocking off the Rams 37- 35. Then the -Iayvees moved on to Lewiston to triumph over the Blue Devils, 42-35. The next encounter was with the fast-breaking Portland Bulldogs, in which the Deeringites were set back 60-40. As a promising squad, many of these boys will see action on the Deering Varsity squad in the near future. Freshman Basketball As the basketball season got underway, Coach Speirs greeted over thirty-five candidates for the freshman team. By the end of the first week, he found it necessary to pare the squad below twenty to give more individual attention to the players. After a month of concentrated practice, the team was set to take on all comers. Throughout the whole season, these Fresh- man players were full of the same fight and spirit that has carried many a Varsity team through hectic ballgames, and have achieved a creditable record for their first year of high school sports. INDOOR TRACK Buck Harvell started his 26th year of coaching Deering's thinelads with a large turnout. Forty boys reported to start what looked like a good season. These were veterans in every class and some promising l'1l'CSllI1lCll. The junior division was strong with Fred Dyer, Pete Pitarys, John Cragin, and Dave Duffey, but our strongest group was the inter- lllCllllltCS, with Dave Vaughan in the 600, Klint Penza in the 300, supported by Lawrence Bernard, George Crockett, and Joe and Jack Baggs. The Sen- ior division had Gabe XValker in the hurdles, Fletch Means in the 300, lVayne Gifford and Roger Erickson in the 1000 yard run. Other strength- ening factors were -lohn Adams, Stanley Mikkelson, Ronnie XVheeler, and George Flaherty. The credit should not go to just these few, but to the many boys who worked hard and pushed them on to victory. 4 1 we A' 11 ' ff 'N 'Ee-.

Some of our outstanding swimmers this year were Captain Phil Anderson and Fred Webber, breast- stroke: Joseph Parent and Charles Butler, backstrokeg Ronald Collins, Ronnie Broadhurst, Ben Dudley, Stan Hanson, short distance freestyleg Eddie Colley, Gordon Moreshead, and John Plummer, long distance freestyle, Vaughan Townsend, and Carl Butler, divers. ln 1952, the junior high schools formed a swimming league and next year will send us several good swimmers, so that D.H.S. Swimming seems to be on the up-grade for the future. Here's looking forward to the 1954 season. Cadet 'W Cfficers' Club , 5 Any commissioned officer in either the Boys' or the Girls' Cadet Corps was eligible for membership in the Cadet Officers' Club. The meetings were held every 1Vednesday night at the homes of the mem- bers. The officers were: Beverly Mangiavas, President, Howard Ranger, Vice President, Sandra Allen, Secretary, Lee Adams, Treasurer, and Marilyn Holmes, YVarden. Several projects were held within the club to raise money for emblems. Among these projects were a penny auction and a skating party. Emblems were awarded to the members at the end of the year. 81 U Q BUYS' CADET CCRP This year, as usual, the Boys' Cadet Corps drilled in the gym every Tuesday and Thursday, led by the laculty advisers, Major Linwood S. Elliott and Colonel Karl V. Palmer. Student officers for the battalion were Lieutenant Colonel Howard Ranger and his stall members, Major Lee Adamsg Capt. Charles Ilill, .Xdjutantg Capt. Neal Arsenault, Attendance Ollicerg lst Lt. Alvin Morrison, As- sistant Attendance Olficerg lst Lt. Benjamin Dudley and lst Lt. Richard Hartling, The Cadets had many activities, among which were ushering at football and basketball games. and serving in the precision drill squad and in the Band Color Guard. The Cadet Ball, held in April at the Exposition Building, was the Corps' largest event. At this time commissions were awarded and medals, cups, and other prizes presented lor the best single Ca- det, ollicer, company, and battalion. The Corps' linal function was at the Memorial Day services held at the school. GIRLS' CADET CORP The Girls' Cadet Corps drilled every Monday and Friday morning in the gy . talions were headed by the two Lt. Colonels, Beverly Mangiavas and Patricia Ryerson, and their staffs, consisting of the three Majors, Mary Elizabeth Durost, Charlotte Healy, and NVealthy Little- field, and Captains Sandra Allen, Dorothy Bore, Ruth Bouchey, Sharon Greenwood, Marilyn Holmes, jean MacWillian1, and Sylvia Meserve. A special drill squad of the more experienced girls worked out more intricate figures under the direction of Major VVealthy Littlefield. High point of the year was the Annual Cadet Ball, held jointly with Portland High Cadets in the Exposition Building. Here a cup was awarded to the best battalion, a plaque to the best com and individual medals to the best line officer and to the best outstanding cadet. m The two bat- pany, -9 5 W fE'b H, :f -..':.

The credit for this year's success goes to Mr. Clinton Graffam, Directorg his assistants Mr. Alexander Pallang and Mr. Ernest Hill, and Col. Karl V. Palmer, Business Manager and Drill Master. The Band supported the football team by play- ing and drilling, and marched in several colorful parades. The year was high-lighted by several con- certs. The first of these was the Annual Fathers' Concert, held January 25th. Following were a joint concert with the Edward Little High School Band in Auburn and our own Annual Concert in City Hall. Also on the agenda were the joint-sponsoring of the local concert of the U.S. Navy Band, whose able director conducted the Deering and Portland High Bands for an unforgettable afternoon of mu- sic, preceding the Navy Band Concert, and the play- ing of a program as guest artists at the New Eng- land Festival of Mens' Singing Clubs. To end a more than successful year, the Band went to Bruns- wick for the W'estern Maine Music Festival, and to Storrs, Connecticut, for the New England Music Festival. The Band is supported financially by the Band Mothers' Club. The 1952-53 Band Officers were WVillian1 Gaudet, President, Glen Goffin, Vice Pres- identg Benjamin Dudley, Treasurer, Doris Gagnon, Recording Secretaryg Nancy Pentz, Correspond- ing Secretaryg Shirley Jo Chilcoat, Business Manag- er, and john Charles, Attendance Officer. ff? W IN MEMQRIAM Words cannot express the depth of the loss felt by his every acquaintance when, on September 7, 1952, Mr. Joseph L. Gaudreau, Deering's beloved Band and Orchestra Conductor, passed away, in the midst of planning another great season for the organizations he had elevated to national renown. Mr. Gaudreau was a friend to all. His winning way and ready smile, sympathetic understanding, and fine sense of humor, appreciation of music, and love of children, made him not the instructor, but the companion of everyone who worked with him. Since 1936 Mr. Gaudreau was Director of Music for all Portland schools as well as being the heart of the Deering High Band. He succeeded Mr. Frank Rigby as its conductor. He coached his musicians to near perfection, and re- turned from every music festival with the highest of ratings. Alumnus, bands- man, and future prospect, alike, were always equally welcome guests at the Gaud- reau home. The position of Director of Music has been refilled and school music goes on, but all those who knew and loved Mr. Gaudreau will never forget all that he did and was to them. 15 1 fy' :M 1 P 'Pa' 'z f M D JA cz: mg fl? . .

Under his able leadership the Orchestra presented two concerts with great success. The Vesper Concert in Decem- ber showed the abilities and talents that the Orch- estra possesses. It was very successful and was equalled later in the year by the Annual Concert in the spring. The entire Orchestra attended the lVestern Maine Music Festival at Brunswick and the New England Music Festival at Storrs, Connecticut, where it was highly reconnnended by everyone pre- sent. The officers for the past year were Stuart Cope, Presidentg Ted Kurtz, Vice Presidentg Jean Mil- ler, Secretaryg Alvin Morrison, Treasurerg and Joan Fay, Student Council Representative. These officers, along with Mr. Graffam, his as- sistants Mr. Ernest Hill and Mr. Alexander Pal- lang, and Business Manager Col. Karl V. Palmer combined a season of pleasure and study with benefit to all. The Orchestra was financed by the Orchestra Mothers' Club. -..-uid OFFICERS - Martha Andrew, Dave Taylor, Judy Ervin, Olie Sawyer SKI CLUB The Deering High School Ski Club, depleted greatly by the graduation last June of many of its best skiers and the transfer this fall of three of its ablest di- rectors to other schools, nevertheless enjoyed a pleasant season with what little snow there was. Mountain climbing and work trips to Dyke, and the Club's ski farm, were the main events for fall and spring, while following the snow round- ed out the winter months. Whatever the occasion - work or play - the weekend trips to the farmhouse on Dyke Mountain and the neighboring Ski Haven cabin were, as usual, the Club's greatest sources of guaranteed pleasure. The Club bought Ski Haven in 1934, and trips were led by Miss Cowan and Ted johnson. Growth and popular- ity of the Club soon necessitated the addition of the nearby farmhouse. This year's student directors were Judy Ervin, Instruction and Membership Director, Martha Andrew, Secretaryg Dave Taylor, Trips Directory Olie Sawyer, Treasurer. These people were also members of the Ski Team. The 1952-53 officers and members wish the future Ski Clubs the best of luck, and a little more cooperation from the elements to boost morale. a UPS! DOWNS! MUSIC? C-irls' Varsity Basketball ,Q ,L W1-mtv? il W ' 4 ia 4.1-sC'f s Miss Piacentini coached her girls to another successful year in basketball. Entering the season with a six consecutive year winning streak behind them the girls had a great deal to live up to. lVith a heavy schedule of such teams as Westbrook Junior College, South Portland, Westbrook, Sanford, Kennebunk, C0- ny, and other local sextettes, the varsity had to have a real determination to win. The starting six was composed ol' forwards Jan Richardson, Marilyn Goodreau, and Rita Ramsay. Guards were Judy Gulian, Mary .lane Thomas, and 'Ian Kimball. Also seeing a great deal of action were Evelyn Snodgrass and Diane Clleaves. The foul shooting champion from Deering competed in the state meet, and a small sex- tette from the school also entered a state-wide play day. At the end of the season the Varsity Seniors were presented with silver basketballs. Girls' Junior Varsity Basketball The junior Varsity squad had a very successful year, progressing a great deal throughout the season. Playing the same teams as the varsity with the exception of Westbrook Junior, the team consisted of for- wards jean Walker, Ellen Thompson, Marilyn Simpson, Judy Iott, Judy Butler, Coleen Perry, and Deanna Dunfeeg and guards Nancy Carmichael, Bev Horsman, Dot Bradstreet, Margaret Hildreth, Dot Underhill, and Dixie Redlon. Many of these girls will move up to fill varsity positions next year. Girls' Freshman Basketball WW YVhen the freshmen were called out to practice, approximately forty girls reportedf After the final cut was made, the girls who remained to make up the team played a six game schedule. Margaret Hildreth Nancy Capp, and Babs Goodwin were our promising forwards, while guards Penny Chapman, Brenda Bernstein, and Connie Atherton completed the starting lineup. 93 . . if il -ui .

A great deal of training and practice went into the producing of this successful team. The girls practiced at the Portland Boys' Club every Tuesday and Thursday night. A great many students were out for swimming who were I1Ot able to swim in the meets, but they were the backbone of the team. Those on the competitive squad were jean N'Valker, Dixie Redlon, Ellen Thomp- son, Judy Gulian, Nancy Lagdon, Pat Gorman, Marilyn Brynes, and Jo Porch and Carol Hopkins in the diving class. WJ? T ,. k -insist 94 Second Band The Deering High School Second Band, under the able direction of its new leader, Mr. Alexander Pal' lang, has had a successful year. The officers were Paige XVest, President, and Nancy Jo Davis, Sec- retary. The band practiced every Tuesday and Thursday. The members attended the XVestern Maine Music Festival at Brunswick in the Spring. The band played at the Freshman Reception and at the St. Louis football game. Sophomore Class History They say time flies, and it's so true, for here we are, the Class of 1955, at the end of our second year in Deering. Our memory book of high school days is half completed and it is crammed with events and incidents that make these years so dear to US. Our freshman year started off very successfully when we held our Freshman Reception. The cap- able leaders we chose were Judy Iott, President, Artie Atherton, Vice President, Dixie Redlon, Sec- retary, Pete Baade, Treasurerg Dick Gelinas, Maria Della Valle, and Mike Stockwell on the Executive Committee. The upperclassmen could not help but notice the decided change in us all as we entered school last September. The bewildered freshmen of Sep- tember, 1951 were now confident sophomores. This year we chose Phil Candelmo to lead us, assisted by Mike Stockwell, Vice Presidentg Liz Sarando, Secretary, Ray Chapman, Treasurerg and Judy Iott, Jean Skillins, and Dick Gelinas on the Executive Committee. Our big contribution to the social ad- tivities of the school was the Sophomore Hop. Many boys and girls participated in sports. Mak- ing Varsity Football were: Don Lary, Dick Gelinas, Ronnie Broadhurst, Jim Penza, and Robert Palm- er. Taking care of the manager's end was Bill Miller. Phil Candelmo made Varsity Basketball, while John Rogers, Art Atherton, Bob Bruns, Mike Stock- well, and Bob Palmer were Jayvees all. Track is not to be forgotten with such boys as Jim Penza, Jolm Cragen, Pete Pitarys, and Ronald Damon running the track, while Ronnie X'Vheeler chalked up honors in the discus and hammer throwing divisions. Girls contributing their part were Dixie Redlon, Nancy Carmichael, and Mary Hildreth playing Varsity Field Hockey. Joan Porch, Martha Andrew, Jerry Eldridge, Judy Butler, and Nancy Mullin were Jayvees. Seen in action on the basketball court were these Jayvee members: Coleen Perry, Judy Butler, Mar- tha Andrew, Judy Iott, and Deanna Dunfee, for- wards. The guards were Mary Hildreth, Nancy Carmichael, Dixie Redlon, and Liz Sarando. Showing off their lung power were these five Jayvee Cheerleaders who will see varsity duty next year: Donna Williams, Judy Iott, Nancy Carmich- acl, Nancy MacDougal, and Connie Carleton. The sophomore class was well represented in many other activities such as Band, Orchestra, Stu- dent Council, French Club, Ramblings, and AME- THYST. It is our fondest hope that in the next two years we may add many more happy pages to our mem- ory book, and that through the help of our teachers and advisers we may become a lasting credit to our school, Deering High.

Nutting - Shortxtop Coach Manley's nine batted their way through a great season, playing every team in the Telegram League twice, as usual. Pre- league practice games, including Bowdoin and Bates College Frosh, brought the number of games played to twenty-odd. The old guard of last year was strengthened by new hopefuls in the '53 season, and possibilities are strong for continuing the good record in the near fut- ure. D.

This class was held so that bo enjoyed tumbling might participate beyond the average gym period. Also in this manner, they were able to work on advanced skills and techni- ques. ys who They best displayed their talents during National Education Week in City Hall. There they presented a live tableau, which greatly impressed the audience. Little Carl Butler stole the show with his clever and skillful antics as a midget mitey-mite. The regulars were Dave Good- win, Frank Nappi, Carl Butler, Haz- en Rutherford, Robert Miller, Nick jones, Walter Stevens, Ray Chapman, Albert Nappi, Harry Milliken, and Stan Hanson. This season has been one of the tea1n's best, and Coach Kosiba looks forward to another good year. Boys' , Bowling This year all three underclasses were represented in the Boys' Bowling Team, meeting at the Y.M. C.A. at 2:00 o'clock every Monday. The tournament was between the Freshmen, Sophomore, and Junior teams. The Freshmen team was lucky to have a fine group of bowlers, led by Ed Rogers and Mert Doyle. Rogers copped a record of 279 points for three strings. The Sophomore team was led by two speedy bowlers, Larry Laben and Steve Bornstein. Don Cutler and Mike Ross, the only two Juniors, were ex- cellent curveball artists. The Monday sessions were spent in preparation for the tournament which well proved the old say- ing, Practice makes perfect! C-irls' -er Bowling The Girls' Bowling Team this year was comprised of approximately fifty girls who met every Wednes- day and Friday afternoon at the Congress Square Alleys. An added feature was the interclass tournament, from which was picked the individual high scorer. Some of the outstanding bowlers in the group were Jacqueline Mitchell, Shirley Rowe, Lois Simmons, Betty Larrabee, and Ann Rollins. 10 ......... 'S - 452 Q 139 v P, 1 HI-Y CLUB .f ' 1 Nw The Deering High School Hi-Y Club got off to a fine start this year under the capable leadership of President David Lewis. Other officers were: Alvin Morrison, Vice Presidentg Leonard Nelson, Secretary: George Crockett, Treasurerg Leonard Barn- stoue, Corresponding Secretary. With the able help of the adviser, Y.M.C.A. Secretary Clifford Blake, the tlub participated in many worthwhile projects. A Thanksgiving and a Christmas basket were given to needy fam- ilies. The club also gave in a financial way with grants to the tiommunity Chest, Y.M.C.A. World Service, and The Bruce Rob- ert's Fund. As usual, the clnh presented the school with a gift. For the Thanksgiving game, Hi-Y published the annual Tur- key Day Program. Over lEl00 of these sixteen-page souvenir booklets were sold. The Older Boys' Conference, held in Ban- gor this year, saw eleven boys from our club attending. Playing major roles were this year's Conference President, Alvin Mor- rison, who at the end of the festivities, handed his gavel to the new President, Fred Scribner, III. The Annual Sno-Ball held in the D.H.S. gym was again the school's outstanding social event. A capacity crowd watched the crowning of Sno-Queen Margie Panetti and her four attendants: Sally Neilson, Merle Royte, Karen Thorsell, and Audrey Haugaard. ln the Spring, the club was well represented at several Y.M. CA. discussion conferences, and participated with other Maine Hi-Y and Trislli-Y clubs in the active Three-Day Youth Gov- ernment Convention. Boys in the Hi-Y Club represent the four classes at Deering and as a unit strive to create, maintain, and extend throughout the community, high standards of Christian character. .xg Sea DHI The Deering Tri-Hi-Y Club was founded in 1947 to create, maintain, and extend throughout the home, school, and community, high standards of Christian char- acter.

Other of- ficers were: Margaret Mary McCann, Vice President: Merle Royte, Recording Secretary: Marilyn Clark, Treas- urerg Marion Winter, Corresponding Secretary: and Eve- lyn Snodgrass, Social Chairman. The club sponsored the Deering March of Dimes and Cancer drives, and at Thanksgiving and Christmas pre- sented a food basket to a needy family. A pair of glasses was given to a child otherwise financially unable to have them, and in june the club gave the school the annual Tri'Hi-Y gift. In the Spring, Deering Tri-Hi-Y girls combined forces with other Maine Tri-Hi-Y clubs at the Youth Govern- ment Convention, where individuals were elected and par- ticipated in a working, model state government. The club is affiliated with the Y.M.C.A. It represents all four classes. CLUB K2 L . x x I' Z T A ' It Nw, ,J it 'X A One of the most sought-after privi- leges in Deering is to become a mem- ber of the D Club which is, per- haps, the most venerated club at Deer- ing. Students who have earned their letter are eligible for membership. Several projects have been under- taken by this club, which holds monthly meetings. The D Club Drag, an old clothes dance, was well received by the student body. How- ever, the D Club Show, in which the male athletes receive their awards, was the most anticipated event. The presentation of the Mayor and Miss Deering was the highlight of the eve- ning. The D Club picnic rounded off the activities of the year. The officers for 1953 were: Bob Johnson, Presidentg Ted Kurtz, Vice President: Audrey Haugaard, Secre- taryg Gabe XValker, Treasurerg jim Srnaha, Steve Dougherty, and Judy Culian, Iixecutive Committee.

However, membership in the society is granted only if a candidates record is deemed worthy by the national board. Deering's sponsors of the society are Mr. Elliott and Mr. McCann. RfI7HflfI'71gS and AMETI-IYsT staff members are always well represented in the society. Junior S1 Red Cross The purpose of the 'Iunior Red Cross Organization in Deering is to acquaint the student body with the outstanding work this Organization does throughout the year. The first project ol' this year was the annual Red Cross Drive. Through this, every student had a chance to contribute to and become a member of the junior Red Cross. Christmas boxes were sent to high school students overseas, by students who wished to promote better relations in distant lands. A scrap- book, made by the club members and showing American high school student life, accompanied the gift boxes. The H153 ol'l'icers were: Judy Johnson, President: john Tierney, Vice President, Patricia Hayman, Secretary, and .Indy Lamb, Treasurer. iH 'M. Forum ,MS At the beginning ol' the year, as preparation for the approaching national election, the Forum put on a series ol' lour radio panels dealing with the importance and the outcome of that election. The lforum also, in order to give the students of Deering an opportunity to express their opinion, held, in con- junction with the Student Council, a mock election. ln january, the Forum again put on its own radio program on Saturdays over W.P.O.R. This series lasted lor ten weeks and gave many Forum members experience in speaking on a panel, as well as over the radio. This year the I orum started to give its members from the lower classes experience in public speak- ing and debating. The Forum sent Donald Cutler, Fred Scribner, Leonard Nelson, and Stuart Cope to participate in the ll0Bowdoin Debating Forum.

The first nine were Bill Adam, Bernie Perl- man, Lenny Nelson, Mike Ross, Bernie Cope, Lee Adams, George Crockett, Bob Johnson, and Ted Kurtz. Future of America This year a group of girls and boys organized a new club at Deering, The Future Teachers of America. The purposes of F.T.A. Clubs in high schools are exploratory, prevocational, and preprofessional. Through F.T.A. projects students learn about the opportunities in teaching, cultivate the character qualities essen- tial to a good teacher, study the lives of great teachers, and foster the development of student teaching. The officers for l953 were: Merle Royte, President, George Dumbrocyo, Vice President, Marilyn Tarr, Sec- retary, Judy Putnam, Treasurer, Merrilyn Sawyer, Program Chairman, and Elizabeth Davies, Student Council Representative. . 4' , ME gal' RL :YD V' E ROYTE MAYOR AND MISS DEERING The efforts of Comrades Ted Kurtz and Merle Royte, aided by Georgi Malenkov, together with the clever doings of Sam DiPhilippo and Jean Hastings, produced one of the greatest campaigns for Mayor and Miss Deering in the history of the school. 7 o'clock Friday morning, on April 10th was wet and cold, but never-the-less hundreds of campaigners for each couple gathered at their respective campaign headquarters in order to get an early start on the big day. Both couples had parades to the back of the school where inikes were set up for speeches, songs, and general commotion. By this time, the remaining neighbors of the houses around Deering were up after trying valiantly to sleep. When school commenced, both couples presented their campaigns to the student body in the auditorium. The Hastings-DiPhilippo combine had an old-time musical review, while the Royte-Kurtz ticket were tried in a Communistic Court for being Uupstanding and good citizens of Deering. From this trial the expression so help you Malenkov came to Deering. Such slogans as Get on the beam with Sam and Jean and Stay out of the red with Merle and Ted were the warcry of the opposing can- didates. The climax of the activities was the crowning of Ted Kurtz and Merle Royte as Mayor and Miss Deering at the annual D Club Show. It was a campaign that will long be remembered by the students of Deering and an incentive to others to com- pete for the highest honor in Deering High and the fun that goes with it. xx X SAM DIPHIl.ll'l'O JEAN HASTINGS fr ha' 'vu if WA 'PJEAN il 'f 'illllufmM, Q Aa, 'uu-.Q E11 CLASS WILL We, the members of the illustrious class of 1953, supposing ourselves to be of insane minds and infirm bodies do hereby and hereon prescribe this document our -last will and testament.

First of all, I would like to thank my section editors and key men from the bottom of my heart for big jobs well done. I defy anyone to find a better gang of workers and swell kids. jerry Sandler, my indispensible and inspired Photography Editor, Audrey Haugaard, who has charmed more ads out of local merchants than any previous Advertising Editor, Super salesman George Crockett, my Business Manager, Marilyn Lounsbury, and Ellen Thompson who edited the 1l1OSt com- pact, accurate, and detailed Senior Section ever, and Margie Panetti, queen of the typewriter keys. Sports Editors Janet Kimball and Fletch Means, and Clubs and Activities Editor Margaretmary McCann certainly came through with the goods in those rough deadline days. Don Cutler has my sincere thanks for help and suggestions when I needed them the most. Every deadline found Don willing and able, he'll make a great Editor-in-Chief next year. The 1953 AMETHYST had some A-l men-in-the-ranks, too. Many thanks to every member of the Editorial, Circulation, and Advertising Staffs for all their hard work. Now I want to thank the many people, who although not officially connected with the AMETHYST, did a lion's share of the work to make this yearbook what it is. Thanks to all the faculty and administra- tion for putting up with the many inconveniences caused them. Dr. David K. Lovely's three excellent photos used on the Fall, Winter, and Spring title pages were an answer to prayer. Mrs. Frye, of the Philip K. Frye Studio, was a big help in deadlinemaking by doing hurryup jobs for us on the Band and Orchestra pictures and the portraits of Mr. Gaudreau and Col. Palmer. Mr. Sullivan, of Sullivan Photo Service, took the beautiful color cover photo and most of the faculty pictures. Joanna Kimball drew the rams on page one, and Dean Cushman was my art critic. I am really obligated to my mother, father, grandfather, and my midnight typists - N.L.S. and C.A.S. - for their unlimited patience and help. Obviously, I have not mentioned everybody in the battle of preparing the 1953 AMETHYST, because space will not allow it. I sincerely hope that no one will take offense over the absence of his or her name. Whatever he or she may have done - whether large or small - for me or the yearbook or both . . . thanks a lot. In parting, I would just like to say that the only way our sweat, blood, and tears can ever be fully repaid is to have all the 1953 AMETHYST subscribers say: This is a yearbook to be proud of. P.S. Also, sincere thanks, for needed help and apologies to the office and faculty members for the neces- sary but irritating activities of the staff during school hours.
