Jean Farrar September 30 found us bowing down to the seniors, which, of course, was a must at the freshman initiation. In December we were working hard earning class funds. We made and sold wreaths, had food sales, and the usual recess sandwich sales. April was our next month for earning money, and we sponsored two roller skating parties, held food sales, and sold sandwiches at recess. In the fall of 1956 we entered West Paris High as sophomores. Our number had decreased to only ll. Sheila Heath, Elaine Penley, Rodney Abbott, Mary Ann Perham, Gary Goodwin, Eugene Lynch, Richard Herrick, Sylvia Kilponen, Jeanne Hawkins, Alice Hertell, and Herbert Estes were now higher classmen. e elected the following officers: President ...............

Sheila Heath November was our month for the usual money-making schemes and we tried to make the best of it. We voted to sponsor food sales, and to have the usual sandwich sales at recess. Both boys and girls were represented in sports. Gary Goodwin and Eugene Lynch enjoyed these opportunities while Mary Ann Perham, Elaine Penley and Joanne Hawkins were the feminine athletes. In March we were once more at work building up our funds for the class trip. This month we added a beano game to our list, which proved to be a very successful money-making project. In the fall of 1957, ten excited juniors returned, glad to be classed finally as real upper classmen. We had in our midst, Sheila Heath, Elaine Penley, Rodney Abbott, Mary Ann Perham, Joanne Hawkins, Alice Hertell, Eugene Lynch, Gary Goodwin, Herbert Estes, and Sylvia Kilponen. We once again held class elections with the following results. President .............. .... ....... - .............. R od ney Abbott Vice-President ................................ ........

This game also turned out very successful. Each stu- dent chipped in to help secure prizes. We also sponsored a roller-skating party, and sold sandwiches at recess. In the spring we honored the seniors with the Junior-Senior Banquet at the Universalist Church. 16
