PLOT FRESHMAN We knocked at the door with a happy grin, And the upper classmen let us in. History was in the making all over the world. The overwhelming victory of the Unit- ed States had not yet dimmed into the past. It was just about this time that another great historic event took place. We, the class of ' 49, made our debut at A. H. S. As usual we Freshmen were bewildered, but we may hon- nestly boast that we weren ' t taken in by those merciless students who tried to sell us tickets to the elevator. As for the reserved seats in the cafeteria and losing our way around the cor- ridors, however, we shall omit all discussion. We were soon relieved of most of our perplex- ity when we gave four people the great honor and privilege of being officers of our class: President, Richard Farrell; Vice-President, Carl Weeman; Secretary, Cynthia Hawkins; Treasurer, Kaye Surprenant. Things now rolled merrily along. Some of our more courageous classmates such as Eu- nice Anderson, Violet Hogberg, Ruthie Gal- vin. N orm Anderson, Ralph Hudson, Dick Pellissey, Charlie Bennett, Jimmie Kershaw, Dick Young, Jimmie Ganci, Howie O ' Hare, Rich Marsh, Boogie Ostrander and Carl Wee- man fearlessly joined the athletic forces of A. H. S. and modestly displayed their natural talents. Charlie Bennett, Larry Cooper, Helen Guillette, Dolores Morin, Howie O ' Hare and Carol Wells saw that we were well represented on the Student Council. In May we held our first big social event, the Freshman dance. It was called Pepper- mint Phantasy and, much to our pride and joy, was a big success. Thus, having completed our first year, which in the beginning seemed everlasting and dull, most of us began to look forward to our sophomore year. SOPHOMORE CLASS As Sophomores we were mighty wise, And had a record twice our size. It can ' t be true. We are big Sophs — no longer insignificant Freshmen. Now we were the villains who, for revenge of our previous year, gladly took up the duties of selling tick- ets for the elevator to the freshmen and scorn- fully gave them wrong directions until satis- faction was ours. After much heavy campaigning, we finally emerged with the following officers: President, William Swenson; Vice-President, Howard O ' Hare; Secretary, Ella Fleming; Treasurer, Kaye Surprenant. Joe Menard, Bill Swenson, Jed McCarte, Pudgie Inman, Bunny Randall, Bob Fisher, Fuzzy Ney, Eddie Guillette, and Eddie Mottau gallantly accompanied our heroes of the pre- vious year onto the athletic fields. Eunice Anderson, Dick Farrell, Ralph Hudson, Hazelle Lamoureux, Howie O ' Hare, and Kaye Surprenant were delegated to the Student Council. This was the year we gladly welcomed physical education, under the capable super- vision of Miss Thomson, Mr. Tozier and Mr. Cassidy. A new principal, Mr. Samuel Graves, came to us from Winchester. Our able dance committee thought up a most original idea and called the dance, which helped to replenish our treasury, Comic Cav- alcade. This, too, proved to be a huge success. And so, by hard work, we finally awaited the day on which we were to become upper classmen. JUNIOR CLASS They say great oaks from acorns grow, And trees will grow from seeds we sow. And thus we, perhaps the shortest people in the high school, entered our Junior j ' ear, proud of being the second most important class at A. H. S. We began this year hale and hearty by electing an all-girl slate of class officers: Presi- dent, Helen Guillette; Vice-President, Eunice Anderson; Secretary, June Carlson; Treasurer, Beverly Schofield. The next important event on the agenda was the selection of our class ring. This the Ring Committee did to the utmost satisfaction of the whole Junior Class.
