She has developed a strong art department in the school, has herself been a craftsman of extraordinary abil- ity, and has made generous contributions of time and labor to the whole community. Every event in school, for all these years, has been heralded by displays of brilliant posters which have been the work of her pupils and her inspiration. We shall miss her. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION ....., SENIORS A..,.... UNDERCLASSMEN . A . . ACTIVITIES ...4., ATHLETICS ...,.. SPECIAL EVENTS .,,... ADVERTISING I.... 3 PATH S The worn paths of Deering High have borne the footsteps of an endless succession of Deeringites seeking knowledge and a greater understanding of life. To us, these paths are a thoroughfare to maturity and strength of character, although in reality, they lead to our classes and activities. We look to these paths to guide us to newer and better horizons. Completing our travels at high school, we, the Class of 1957, now record our journey to keep alive the memories of our days at Deering High School. 4 . 1 6 , 2 .s V3 gag 'kv g E 'W x A X To The Class of 1957: Of one thing you may be sure, your life after graduation will be lived in a time of intense competition. Whether you are employed directly or continue your education, you will find that demands will be made upon you to prove your ability in direct comparison with others. Contemp- orary society asks a great deal of its people. To meet these requirements you will need both skill and character, and the greatest of these is character. I hope you have acquired a good measure of both during your secondary school experience at Deering. Your paths will be diverse, but your goal is a good life with a full acceptance of the respon- sibilities and obligations inherent in all thinking members of a free society. You possess the factual knowledge necessary for your natural developmentg your schools have given you this foundation. Now you mustiaccept an ever-increasing degree of personal responsibility for your future develop- ment. I trust each one of you will make the contribution which is within your means to your community and to your country, and I hope that in the process you will experience the abundant spiritual life which is the birthright of every human being.

Paihfinder's P.-T.A. lt is an accepted fact that home influences upon young people normally undergo a marked change during the teens. New interests and emotions come into the foreground, new patterns of conduct are adopted, and new parent-student-teacher relationships are created. It is equally accepted, we believe, that neither group can do its best work without the other's intelligent understanding and loyal support. Such a background justifies the existence of Pathfinders' P.T.A. of Deering High and Lincoln Junior High School. The officers for the current school year are: Mrs. James C. Cole, President, Mr. John Ham, First Vice President, Mrs. Melvin Hamblett, Second Vice Presidentg Mrs. Lewis Mussman, Recording Secretary, Miss Madeline Ulmer, Corresponding Secretary, and Mrs. Lyman S. Moore, Treasurer. Band Mofher's Club Officers: President, Mrs. Daniel C. McDonaldg Vice President, Mrs. Paul S. Woodworth, Secretary, Mrs. Milton B. Pratt, Treasurer, Mrs. Charles F. Elston. Our Band Director, Mr, Clinton W. Graffam, Jr. has returned after a year's Sabbatical at Boston University. With his return has come a New Looki' on the Drill Field this year with the new novel type of drill inaugurated by Mr. Andrew J. McMullan, Jr. and Mr. Rohe Winchell, Drill Master. Mr. Arthur W. Stevens has directed the Second Band and Mrs. Winchell has acted as adviser for the Majorettes. The Band held a reciprocal Concert with the Barrie Vermont Band, which appeared with us at the Annual Band Concert held at City Hall in April and May 17th in Vermont. The Father's Concert was held in the school auditorium, January 13th. Besides this the Band accompanied the Football Team travelling to Lewiston, Gardiner, and Sanford. Among the projects undertaken to provide funds were 2 Rummage Sales, A Band Dance, A Pyramid Bridge, Thanksgiving Day Collection, ind a Spring Project. Both the First and Second Bands marched in all local parades and attended the Western Maine Music Festival in Biddeford. Orchestra M oihers The Deering High School Orchestra Mothers' Club was organized for the purpose of raising money to provide uniforms, music, and in- struments when needed, and to finance trips to the Maine and New England Music Festivals. This year the club has provided new white skirts and trousers for the members of the Orchestra. We expect to have the Annual Vesper Concert Deccmhcr 16th with the Glee Club and the Annual Concert and Dance in the spring. Officers are: President, Mrs. Charles A.

'KJ HISTORY 0F THE CLASS OF '57 Long live the class of 1957! These four years of hard work and happiness will live forever in our hearts. Wide-eyed and slightly bewildered We entered the halls of Deering in September of 1953 and soon got into the swing of things by electing Tony Ger- maine, President, Robert Duffey, Vice President, Jane Howe, Secretary, Miriam Bonell, Treasurer, and James Keenan, Teddy Davis, and Stuart Snyder, Exec- utive Committee. To guide us through the traditional Sophomore slumpv we elected Alan Colley, President, Carol Mar- ston, Vice President, Sonja Sorenson, Secretary, Stuart Snyder, Treasurer, Dian Ames, Eddie Williams, and Sally Serunian, Executive Committee. The high- light of the year, our Sophomore Hop called Fu- turamaf' was really out of this world. Danny Aceto led us through our Junior year aided by Pat Ledger, Vice President, Kathi Koenig, Sec- retary, Dian Ames, Treasurer, Alan Colley, Sonja Sorenson, and Tony Germaine, Executive Committee. Under the direction of our class adviser, Mr. John McCann, we presented our Junior Prom, An Evening ln Dreamlandf' Linda Elowitch and Sally Serunian represented Deering at Dirigo Girls, State. Stuart Snyder and Eliot Maynard attended Dirigo Boys' State for Deering. Seniors at last! This was the busiest year in our lives when we burned the midnight oil to finish our chemistry problems or write that story for Ramblings, yet we still seemed to find time for fun. To preside over us we elected Jimmy Keenan, President, Dick Schad, Vice President, June Frye, Secretary, Edward Reidman, Treasurer, Executive Committee, Pat Led- ger, Dian Ames, Allan Colley. Led by Stu Snyder and Jimmy Keenan, our co- captains, the football team had a very successful season climaxed by winning the Thanksgiving Game. Ernie Goodwin won the trophy for the outstanding lineman, and Jim Keenan, the trophy for outstanding sportsmanship. Our basketball team was led by Captain Dave Murdock who was aided by the outstanding team- work of Bob Carter, Dave fSamj Houston, and Joe Pete Tanguay. Cheering these teams to victory, and leading school spirit, were head cheerleader June Frye, Gerry Sear- way, Dawn Mclntyre, and Kathi Koenig. Outstanding as girl athletes were Judy Aaskov, captain of the hockey team, Sonja Sorenson, captain of the basketball team. Other ,athletes who excelled were Pat Ledger, Linda Redlon, Jane Howe, and Judie Marsh. June Frye, recipient of the Brotherhood Award, was chosen as Sno-Queen at the Annual Sno-Ball and Gerry Searway and Ellen Klev were her attendants, Meg Thompson was awarded with the D.A.R. award for the best citizen of our class. Carol Sweetser, as editor-in-chief of Ramblings, made sure that its deadline was met each month, and Dick Slosberg, dubbed the '5Happy Wanderer', not without reason, could always be seen chasing around the corridors for all the stories and pictures for this excellent year book. All too soon came practice for 'Senior singing and then graduation, but although we are leaving Deering, we will never forget the good advice of our instructors or the fun of being classmates.

In order to chase away those Mid-Year blues, the Council sponsored a dance after Mid-Year, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. 'The new idea of selling megaphones for the Thanksgiving Game was also intro- duced this year. For their own enjoyment, some members of the Council attended the State Convention in Bangor on No- vember l6th and 17th, where they obtained many new ideas for our council and its members. The members of the Council work on the various projects throughout the year, for the general welfare of the school and its self government.

Long hours of work plus the combined efforts of Mr. McMullin and Mr. Winchell have helped rank Deering among the leading-New England Bands. This year we welcomed back Mr. Graffam after his sabbatical leave, and under his direction, the group achieved excellent rating in the Western Maine Music Festival in Biddeford and gave highly successful concerts.

MAJORETTES The band seldom made a public appearance without its twelve majorettes. The fast stepping girls, led by Judith Baker, practiced with the band, rehearsing drills for football games and routines for the Band Concert, Cadet Ball, and Maine and New England festivals. Under the capable supervisions of Mrs. Roy Winchell, the majorettes added much color and pep to the performances of the band. 80 GIRLS' GLEE CLUB Under the capable leadership of Mr. H.

They appeared at the Vesper Concert, the Christmas Assembly, the Spring Concert, and the Easter As- sembly. The highlight of the year was the Western Maine Music Festival. To raise funds for purchasing uniforms, the girls held a white elephant record sale and two dances. Sl CADETS WURK HARD FOR Front Row, Left to Right: Capt.

The reporters were Diane Ames, Laura Lennon, Roberta McCann, Linda McCormick, Norma Wattell, and Judith Anderson, with Robert Kiblcr and Penny Gorman as sports reporters. Peter Walsh and Peter Clough, heading the Advertising Staff, were successful enough to balance the budget.

Dino is a young man who has return- ed from four years in a reformatory. He is confused and mixed up. He is re- jected by his parents and ridiculed by his contemporaries, but idolized by a younger brother. How Dino solves his problems with the help of a plain, shy girl makes for a powerful story.

Water Ballet Club Proposal Hits Snag You have no doubt read enthusiastic articles about attompts to form a water ballet club for girls who have success' fully advanced Red Cross swimming rourses. Vlftv, in the physical education department, feel that the thought was a good one, but once again you highly skil- led girls will have to stifle your enthus- iasm. Our facilities for swimming are limited. They must be reserved for stu- dents who do not swim well enough to be safe in, or around, water. Mr. Y. at tho Y. M. C. A., is anxious to help us out, but -- tho pool has no public add- ress system and adequately accommo- dates only 8 synchronized swimmers. No permanent arrangement can be made with authorities at the Boys' Club bc- cause organized classes for schools must be worked into an already over- crowded sch:-dule. We hope that you will take advantage of the opportunity to swim in the water ballet pageant presented annually at the Boys' Club. Some day, if dreams really come true, each of your gym classes will not consist of 100 stud' ents, your study halls will not meet' in the auditorium, and your costly, incon- veniently located swimming classes will not be restricted to the less highly skilled.

Writer Charges Big Three Sports Monopolize Student Attention? Urges Support of Other Groups During my sojourn at Deering, I have repeatedly observed that many students regard football, basketball and baseball as the only extra-curricular activities demanding their attention and praisv. This lack of regard for other outside activities ofthe sm-hool is appalling. The studs-nts are nm alone: to blame, especially since many of them parti- bipate in these activities. It is due to the lack of publicity that these activis tics 1'eot1iv9O,'the lack of the alumni and faculty in Supporting them, wa fow am- lezic assemblies, and the definite: lack of true school spirit at Dccring, Many students have no interest in the way their school is represented. We, at Deering, should take notice ol' the other extrascurriuular activities besides the three big sports. We should be proud of our other teams and grmziis and should praise and support them. How many of you have seen David Rolfe run? Ha iswme of the greatest of the great trackmen that Deering has produced. Iwould venture to say that less than 100 of 1400 students havo ever seen Rolfe in action. This year's track team is one of the host of all the great Deoring track teams. Ralph Buck Harv0l1 has had many great teams, but never has he seen as many as 24 men scorn points in a single track meet. It has happened thisyesir. The depth is supplied mainly by sen- iors, making this the allfimportant year. Sornrf of this yenr's great twain include seniors Rolfe, Krlenan, Wood- man, Goodall, Crawford, Petersen, Davis, Sosville, Dowling, Shea, MC donough, Phillips, Riley, and Gold'- berg, and underclassmen Lovins, Drurnmey, Donnelly, Crawford, Rolfe, Ge-lines, Crockett and Gid- eon. This team deserves all of our Support.

The blank space in between the two series of pictures represents the time during the Mcxiieval Ages when thore were no public sports. The second set of pictures is the modern baseball, swimming, tennis. foothall, and basketball player. The poem, A Prayer of a Sportsman, is written by Barton Braley - And if! should lose, let mc stand bythe road, and chcor as the winners go by!

The purpose of this organization is to create, maintain, and extend through- out the home, school, and community high standards of Christian character. Girls from each of the four classes carried out this purpose. They aided the Salvation Army with their Annual Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets, and at Easter, gave a pair of glasses to a needy child. The money raising projects for these gifts were dances and a candy sale. At conferences this year the Deering club was well represented. At the Older Girls, Conference, Yasuko Nogami was elected president for the ensuing year. This is an honor of which the club was very proud. The girls also had many enjoyable social projects. Among them were the tea for the mothers, splash parties, slumber parties, and the progressive supper.

In the fall of 1956, long before school opened, our Deering Rams donned their practice uniforms in pre- paration for their strenuous forthcoming season. The traditional game with Portland opened our season. Portland shocked everyone by winning eas- ily 33-6. The boys were stunned by this tremendous upset and worked hard for their next game. They bounced back by beating Cheverus 32-20 with the aid of many reserves in the second half. Deering next met Lewiston, and although our boys in Purple outplayed them, we were whipped by two points 14--12. Strong South Portland was held in check until the third period was over, and then only a lucky break enabled them to win. lnfuriated by these two defeats, that could have easily gone in our favor, Deering rallied to beat a strong Gardiner team 20-19. Deering then crushed St. Louis 4-6-6. In the Sanford game Deering beat the Indians statistically, but lost in the scoring department 7-0. The Rams rebounded by beating Thornton for the first time in seven years, 21-14-. On the eve of the Thanksgiving Day Game, Deering was rated as one of the most improved ball clubs in the state. With wonderful school spirit and determination we faced our arch-rival, Portland, and beat them 13-7. This ended a winning season, the first in three seasons, with a record of 5 wins and 4 losses, of which three losses could have easily gone the other way. Deering is expecting another successful season next year, but we will certainly miss these seniors: Co- Captains Stu Snyder and Jim Keenan, Wayne Newbegin, Rich Schade, Danny Aceto, Ed Reidman, Al Shea, Ed Williams, Dave Corson, George Carver, Larry Gardner, Al Jackson, Stan Pollack, Ernie Goodwin, Tony Germaine, and Bob Allen. Of course we must express our gratitude to our coaches who produced our winning season: Coaches Caminiti, Larabee, Harlow, Larson, and Washburn. And let us not forget to give recognition to our excellent managers Bob Kibler, Lenny Nemon, Wayne Edes, and Charlie Gauthier. SCORES D.H.S. 6. . , ..,. Portland 33 D.H.S. 20 ...,. ....

VARSITY BASKETBALL Coached for the second consecutive year by Russell l'Tubby Washburn, our Deering five had a good season. Captain Dave Murdock, Mike Simpson, Pete Tanguay, John Butch,' Cottrell, and Pete Reynolds alter- nated playing time to comprise one of the finest groups of guards in the state. Dave Murdockis excellent ball handling and deft jump shots made him a consistently high scorer. Mike Simpson, said to be one of the fastest court men in Deering, improved greatly to score many times in the double figures. Peter Tanguay,- sparked the scoring plays, although this was his first year as a varsity player. John Butch Cottrell and Pete Reynolds, a pair of talented juniors, proved indispensible as leading defensemen. l'Sam,' Houston, high scorer of the team, and Robert Carter, best scorer percentage wise, controlled most of the rebounding. Dick Allan, a junior guard with dead eye one-handed shot, headed the list of reserves. Sophomores Ken Stone, Dick Densmore, Tom Foley, John McMinnamen, and Hal Reed, who were brought up from the J. V. ranks, saw a good deal of action. Deering started the season by beating Thornton, Ken Stone scored the winning basket in an overtime. Then Lewiston salvaged a win by a mere four point margin. This incited Deering's spirit to shove St. Louis 48-47. The next few games were all sad disappointments to the team and the fans, but the Rams bounced back to beat favored Portland 52-47. Thornton was again the victim of Deering's hoopmen. Cheverus luckily decisioned the Rams by four points. Deering ended the season by easily defeating Stephens for the second time with a score of 74--48.

Cross Country Team - Unbeafen Again Led by one of Deering's all-time track greats, the cross country team has had a very successful season under Coach Harvell. Starting by breaking the Cheverus course record, honorary captain David Rolfe has continued on an unbroken record streak. He holds the Deering course record, has broken the record at York, and has topped his own mark in the Southwestern Maine meet. The team scored 3 2points in topping Gheverus 12 and South Portland's 56, and also defeated Portland 19-4-2. Deering hit top form in beating York 15-50 with the first live men placing in order, the team continued with a three cornered win over Bowdoin Frosh and Portland 25-4-4-76, and over Thornton and Wells by a 27-33-77 margin for their twenty-first consecutive victory in local meets. Rolfe led the pack in the Southwestern Maine run, but the team lost to a strong Portsmouth N. H. team. Deering, however, topped the other seventeen Maine teams entered. Dave Rolfe went on to win individual honors in the state meet in the class L division, with Tom McDonough placing fourteenth out of 130. Kneeling, Left to Right: P. Rolfe, Conlouge, D.

The Swiff- foofed Indoor Trackmen Overran All Dpponenis The undefeated track team led by Coach Harvell was rated as the best in the state. The star attraction of the season was Dave Rolfe's spectacular performance in winning the mile at the Southwestern Maine Track Champions. At this meet Rolfe, who is recognized as the greatest distance winner in the history of the school, nipped five seconds from the previous record. The star studded array of speedsters have had so much depth that in two local meets they passed the century mark. Some of this years greats included: seniors, Rolfe, Keenan, Davis, Soshville, Dowling, Shea, McDonough, Phillips Riley, Drogin, Aceto, and Goldberg, and underclassmen: Levine, Drummey, Dennehy, Crawford, P. Rolfe, Gelinas, Crockett, and Gideon. The strength of the team is shown by the fact that out of a possible 225 points divided between 9 top track teams, Deering's tracksters scored 128 points to win the State Championships. lXlGliEIliRg40EI1DIIreITIl?0IIgIllglSIC3Vliitefiggwglzgi Bob Dennehey, Terry Crawford, Jim Keenan, George Goodall.

SWIMMING TEAM The Deering High Swimming Team, which had a very fine session, displayed some of the finest swimmers in New England. ln the last three years they have won twenty dual meets and lost only four. This year Portland and Bowdoin J. V.'s scraped by Deering with only tenths of seconds to spare. ln the State Meet a dis- qualification of the medley relay broke the spirit of the hard-fighting Rams, but stars like Bob Madsen, Elliot May- nard, and Alan Colley still came through with firsts in the their events. Many pool records were broken again this year. Bob Madsen lowered his own backstroke mark. Lenny Lee broke his 40 yard and 100 yard freestyle record. The combination of Allan Colley, Bob Madsen, Toby Muss- man, and Lenny Lee lowered the 160 yard freestyle relay record. Backing the four powerful seniors in every meet were: Billy Chaplin, Alan Jackson, ,lim Branscombe, Henry Reeves, Bob Ek, Wilbur Holmes, Fred Butler, Mike Collins, Toby Mussman, Leon Webber, Norm Bress, Stanley Flynn, and Maynard Hmcks.

The main event was the crowning of the Sno Queen, June Frye and her attendants, Gerry Searway and Ellen Klev. l27 A couple of the neighborhood hoods Planning a settlement house dance Tough kid, Dino DINO The house lights dimmed, the curtain opened on the annual Senior Class play, Dino , on March 23, 1957. Dino, played by Bob Grant, was a seventeen year old tough kid from the slums of New York who had just been released from prison. The play is the story of his come-back to normal teenage living. Because of its trcnuenclous appeal for high school students and the very wonderful direction of lVlr. Burgess, the play was a great success. The cast included: James Sosville, Geraldine Searway, June Frye, Margaret Thompson, David Haskell, Charles Moreshead, Nancy lVlcAvoy, Donna Sample, Judith Marsh, Carol Sweetser, Richard Schade, James Keenan, Linda Elowitch, Stuart Snyder, Dian Ames, Ursula Pesce, and Joan Bryer.

Young The faculty and students of Deering High School were shocked and grieved by the sudden death on March 16, of Ralph B. Young, retired submaster of the school. Mr Young came to Deering High School in 1921 and was head of the Commerical Department for 23 years. In 194-6, he assumed the duties of submaster, a position he held until his retirement in 1955. However, his long association with the school, to which he was so deeply devoted, was not broken because he continued to handle its financial affairs until his death. Not only as teacher and submaster did he serve the community, but for 28 years he was the financial secretary of his church. Mr. Young was a scholar. Widely read he was a keen student of Greek and Latin and one of his many interests was reading the New Testament in the original Creek. A man who loved the out-doors, another interest of his was gardening to which he gave many hours during the summer vacations. Two characteristics which marked Mr. Young were his integrity and his sincere friendliness. A firm disciplinarian, the students knew that he was absolutely fair and that his interest in their welfare was genu- 1ne. To the faculty and the upper classmen, who as freshmen were welcomed to Deering by Mr. Young, the school does not seem the same without his presence but his- influence on it remains. 134 Bob Carter Gerry Searway His Honor The Mayor and Miss eering At four olclock Thursday afternoon April 4, 1957 the walls of Deering High School were covered with signs urging the students to cast their votes for Gerry Searway and Bob Carter, Ellen Klev and Danny Aceto, and Judie Marsh and Ed Reidman. More campaigning went on behind the school Friday morning where everyone thronged around his favorite couplels bandwagon to hear the 'latest tunes and to sing cam- paign songs. When the bell rang at eight o'clock all activities ceased, but stray notes of campaign songs still could be heard all day long throughout the corridors. Friday night it seems that everyone within a ten mile radius flocked into the D. H. S. auditorium to witness the thrilling shows put on by each team. Bob and Gerry began the festivities with their show, Cool City, U.S.A. g then Ellen and Danny were guests of the Steve Allen Shown, and finally Ed and Judy, U. S. Ambassadors, went travelling through the Wild, Wild Worldf' Each show was received with much clamor and suspense as to who would reign over Deering. Finally after each presentation, everyone voted and then attended a dance in'the gym. Saturday, April 6, was a day of great excitement and suspense waiting for the 26th Annual D Club Show and the new Mayor and Miss Deeringf, At eight o'clocl: Stuart Snyder began to introduce Deering's best talent, and the show was underway. Finally the exciting moment came. Bob Carter and Gerry Searway were honored with the titles of Mayor and Miss Deeringvg but they claimed, as did the other two couples, that this was the closest and friendliest campaign that Deering has had.

I will always remember the long afternoons in room 219, and in the Hofficev, the long nights when I burned the midnight oil trying to finish an English theme that I put off while doing Amethyst, and those hectic Amethyst Circulation Drives. At this time I would like to thank those whose time and efforts helped to put the Amethyst in print - Associate Editors Meg Thompson and Carolyn Hawkesg Senior Section Editors, Regina Foley and June Frye, Business Manager, Donald Gordon, Photographers, Bill Nemon, Charles Flagg, and Pat Nixong Circulation Heads, Dian Ames, Linda Elowitch, and Gerry Searway, my Advertising Editor, Bob Grant and his assistant Linda Hubbard, Junior Editors My , Jean Christinson and Judy Miller, Sports Editors, Barry Levine, Toby Muss- man, Judy Marsh, and Judy Aaskovg Head Typist, Sheila Tarnoffg Activities Editors, JoAnna Flanagan, Alan Hirsh, and Mike Rubinoff, Rewrite Staff, Ronal d Drogin, Jo-Anita Sawyer, and Norma Wattellg and the rest of the staff, too numerous to mention, without whose help we would have never pulled through. A special thanks to the Faculty members for their material on Mr. Young, the dedication to Miss Seabury, and the graduation material. And last, my deepest thanks to Mr. Elliott for his many suggestions and his patience with me during those trying deadline rushes. To the 'whole school thank-you. Its been a great year. Richard B.
