26 Galloping Ghost 4 Class History by Dorothy Fullam, Jean Chambers, and Anita Tancrleti One sunny morning in September, 1938, Miss Simonds fnow Mrs. Gaidysj and Miss Blodah looked down upon thirty-nine beaming :faces destined to become the senior class of 1950. Of these, only nine are grad- uating this year. The most remembered fact was that of Silas Carpenter, who spent a good share of the year sitting in the wastepaper basket. Miss Ackroyd took us over in the second grade. Betsy Birchard, Anita Tancreti, Mavis Carpenter and Wesley Rumney joined us. Many a ruler was broken this year for various reasons. Everybody seemed to get better books than Mavis Carpenter and we used that fact to tease her most of the time. Despite the tales we heard about hair-pulling and trips to the coat- room, we spent an enjoyable year with Mrs. Stokes in the third grade. This year we gained Peter Kling, Jerry Thomas and Kenneth King. Even at this early stake, we had steadies such as Jean Brigham and Peter Kling. Luckily, we passed into the fourth grade with Miss Walbridge looking down upon our dumb little faces, especially in history class. Dorothy Ful- lam and Kenneth Lewis always seemed to be at the foot of the class -- in history, that is. We gained Glenora Staples and Richard Rattie this year. Under the iron hand of Miss DeLuca, in the iifth grade, we learned the forty-eight states and their capitals. Our childish minds remember best that Miss DeLuca's hair changed color from day to day. This year we gained Ed Brown, Dick Morse, Dick Wilson, Beverly and Geraldine Bowen and Raymie Rattee. In the fall of 1943 we entered the sixth grade under the direction of Miss Dorothy Marshall. She tried very hard to teach us to draw but finally gave up as we used a whole sheet of drawing paper to draw one little duck. We gained David Bell, Allen Wright, Roma Burke and Joan Bidwell. Joan Bidwell caused great excitement on the playground one day by getting into a fight with Richard Rattie and actually pinning him to the ground - and not with pins and needles either! I ! Roma Burke's coat hanger was the envy of all the girls and, because we were all jealous, we used to hide it on her. We felt pretty proud of ourselves when we iinally entered junior high under jovial Mrs. Simmons. It was during this year that we lost one of the nicest teachers Randolph could ever have. Mrs. Buck Know Mrs. Blais- dellj took us over and did a good job. We all liked her and tried to learn our lessons for her. This year we gained Buddy Bowen, who introduced many new ideas into our innocent little heads. Our seventh grade picnic turned out to be a complete failure due to our breaking into a camp and not realizing what we were doing. For our play we put on The Apple of His Eye. In the fall of 1945 we crossed the hall into the eighth grade with Mrs. Gray. During this year, Mr. Amee substituted for Mrs. Blaisdell and tried to teach us civics. We remember him because of the slight crush he had on Cynthia Holden. Remember the time he was painting the interior of Mr. Boright's house, Cynthia? We spent much time after school for put- ting tacks in other classmates' seats and not owning up to it. We gained Ralph Thurber. With faltering steps we climber the stairs to high school. We had Mr. Murray and Miss Johnson as advisers for our large class of 63.
