Student Council . . . OFFICERS President: Philbert Brooks Vice President: Romona Gonyer Secretary: Charles Landry Treasurer: Peter Styles MEMBERS Seniors: Kent Holden and Philbert Brooks Juniors: Bruce Hodge and Romona Gonyer Sophomores: Mona Riendeau and Charles Landry Freshmen: Roland Gibson and Peter Styles 8th Grade: Brenda Israel and Dawn Stevens 7th Grade: Sonya Marges and Lloyd Gaudette We have had a very successful student council this year. The members have cooperated and worked well with one another. These next few things that are listed give you an idea what we bring up at our meetings. Outside Mr. Cascadden's office there is a sug- gestion box. Any student who wishes to have something brought up at our meeting writes out what he wants brought up and drops it in the box. On January 20, we had a skating party. Dawn Stevens took care of the selling of hot dogs and soda. We made out fairly well. We haven't had a boys' chorus in Groveton High for quite some time, so we decided to try to do something about it. Many of the boys joined and now we have a chorus that really sounds great. It's very dangerous at times out in front of the school, especially when the bell rings and every- one is going across the street. Many times a per- son is almost hit by a car. We brought this up and talked it over one day. We came to the conclusion that it would be a good thing to have a red light to slow up the cars more when the bell rang. Kent Holden and Philbert Brooks went to a selectmen's meeting and asked them about this, They were going to see if this could be done and let Mr. Cas- cadden know, but as yet we haven't found out any- thing. The students wanted more assembliesg so we had each class give one on anything they wanted to do. For the best assembly put on we gave a trophy to that class. The freshman class won, and they certainly deserved it. We thought it would be a wonderful thing if everyone in school brought money for a present for Mr. Bergeron, the teacher we've all missed this past year. We were successful in collecting money and we bought him a spinning outfit, something that he really wanted. Mr. Cascadden awarded all the student council members with medals. They are very nice. and we appreciate his giving them to us. By Romona Gonyer STUDENT COUNCIL: lst row-B. Israel, C. Landry, P. Brooks, President: Mr. Cascadden, R. Gonyer, P. Styles, D.

Senior Play . f 4. ' ,Z VZH, Junior Play . . The Junior play, Three Fingers in The Door by Felicia Metcalf, was put on in the high school auditorium March 26, by the Junior class. The play was a three-act mystery-comedy, and it takes place in a gloomy isolated old house, which was once a fine mansion. The whole plot revolves around a Wealthy old man, Mr. Gregory Long, his great niece Sylvia Long, and Miss Sylvia's fiance. As the story continues it gets more involved when men are seen prowling around the old house, and other mysterious things happen all of which add up to a very exciting play. The play was an outstanding success, and it kept the audience on the edge of their seats all through the play. By James Platt Senior Play . .
