T H E S A M P L E R 9 WHO’S WHO MARY JEAN BALDASARO College Mary Silence best speak the- mind. Christmas Cantata 1; Home Room Secretary Monitor 4; Cheerleader 4; Olec Club 1, 2. Who’s the smallest girl in our class? It’s our Mary! If you doubt this shortness just notice her with Louis, who seems so tall in comparison. When Mary isn’t cheering our teams on, she’s working hard for the C. Y. (). in North Walpole. (According to her the best town on earth.) Resides all this and all t hat good nature, we hear Mary is also quite a hand with a needle. We're wishing much success to a small girl with a large amount of ambition. TYRRELL MICHAEL RELVILLE College Terry The Irish have the best hearts in the three kingdoms. Varsity Football 1, i, 8, 4; Rest Actor Award I; Junior Varsity Rasketball 1, 4; Varsity Rasketball 3, 4; Junior Varsity Rasebail 1; Varsity Baseball 'I, 3, 4; (»lce Club 1, 4; Spotlight Club 1, 3, 4; Home Room Representative 1, 4, It; Junior High Tournament 1, 4, 3, 4; Freshman Dance I; Sophomore Dance 2;Hi!

This witty, good looking blond from the New Terrace is a member of almost every sport and a top notcher in them all. Terry has been a great addi- tion to the football, basketball and baseball teams from his Freshman year on. He was on the all-state team in football and he also held a starting position in basketball. Besides sports, Terry has livened up many plays these four years and well deserves the title of best actor of our class. Easily one of the most popular fellows in our class, with a grin and a lot of fun to brighten the day, Terry’s graduation will leave a hard gap to fill. PATRICIA BISSONNETTE General Pat Eyes can speak and eyes can understand. Majorette 2, 3, 4; Softball i, 3, 4; Basketball 2: Cafeteria 3; («lee Club 3, 4; Monitor 4. If you see a pair of sparkling blue eyes and a big smile you will know right off it’s Fat! She came here from Ludlow in her Sophomore year and immediately joined the band as a majorette. When we found that very pleas- ing personality and saw that high stepping in front of the band we were cer- tainly glad she did. PAUL CLEMENT BRANDON College Paul lie teas a scholar, and a ripe and good one. Special Glee Club 4; Senior Flay 4; Football Formal 4; Sock Dance 4. We are certainly glad to have Paul for a new member in our class. Here from Hardwick, Vermont, within one year Paul has been active in the glee club, a help for numerous class activities and his part in the Senior Flay can- not be forgotten. Although it is unusual to have a one-year resident student on the Honor Roll, Paul’s record has been so excellent that an exception had to be made. A person like Paul is a grand addition to any group. ALBERT BRESLEND General liras Sever trouble trouble, 'til trouble troubles you. Rres is the good-natured type of fellow who takes things as they come. We hear that he has quite a reputation in billiards and also for having been one of the paper mill’s outstanding strong men last summer. He always seems to have a sly grin, but, if there are any women in his life, you will have to ask him about that. With such a likable way and friendly manner, Rres makes an ideal fellow.

10 THE SAMPLER DONALD RUSSELL BROWN College Don She floats upon the river of his thought . Class President 1; Home Room Vice President 1; Home Room President 8; Class Vice President 2: Freshman Dance 1; Student Advisory Board 1, 8, President 4; Band 1, 2, 8, 4, Vice President Band 2, President Band 8, 4; Orchestra 1, 2, Vice President Orchestra 2, President Orchestra 8, 4; Special (ilee Club 1, 2, 8. 4, President Special Glee Club 8, 4; All-State Band 2, 8; I atin Club 1, 2: Operetta 1, 2 Sophomore Dance 2 Hi!

From the above list of activities one can sec that our Valedictorian this year is the busiest fellow in our class, and, also, by far the one with the most varied interests. Donald always can be seen rushing to some activity or else to meet that certain Junior girl somewhere. No one can figure out how Don gets the time or patience to do such an excellent job in everything in which he participates. A person like this certainly has everything to insure great future success. Here are our congratulations, Don, and we are thankful to have had such an outstanding leader in our class. NELSON PAUL BUSKEY College Nets IIell is empty—all the devils are here. Vice President 1; President 2, 8, 4; Junior Varsity Basketball 1; Varsity Basketball 2, 8, 4; Special (ilee Club 1, 2, 8, 4; All State Chorus 2, 8, 4; Oper- etta 1, 2: Home Room President 1, 2 Junior Varsity Baseball 2; Hi! Schooler 1; Student Advisory Board 8; Junior Prom 8; Senior flop 8; Boys’ State 8; Spot- light (’lub 8; ('lass Day Committee 4; Senior Play 4; Football Formal 4; Assistant Director Junior High Tournament 8, Director 4; Monitor 4; Junior Rotarian 4; Freshman Reception 4; Sock Dance 4. Here is one fellow who has certainly been kept busy as our class president for the past three years. If you think this is an easy job, just ask Nelson, who will probably pass it over with a sly grin; but we know that he has pulled us through those senior problems as smoothly as it could ever be done. This hasn’t dejected Nelson any though, and his witty remarks and antics have livened many a class and party. Besides this, he has added much to our glee club and the Senior Play would have been lost without him. We all take our hats off to one grand fellow and without a doubt our most popular classmate. DONALD CHESLEY General Don Here is a true industrious friend. Glee ('lub 2, 8; Christmas Cantata 1, 2, 3. Don is one of those quiet boys you see roaming the corridors very slowly. Any time you see him on the street it will probably be «in his bicycle. We hear Don is a whiz when it comes to airplanes and that his ambitions are pretty well centered around this fact. We know Don will succeed in anything he attempts. JOHN EDWARD COLLIER College John Ed A lore some she is the only joy for me. Track 3; Junior High Tournament 3; Junior Prom 8. Who’s the tall, brawny, red-haired fellow with the grin? Well, let us tell you that this is John Ed,the fellow who has kept the class of “49” jumping since he came here last year from Chicopee Falls, Mass. We were not only proud to have an ex-service man enter our class but we were also delighted when we found that John E 1 is one of the wittiest and all-around-good fun guys ever to hit Bellows Falls High. He is never without a remark or sharp comeback and he peps up the classes only to give more reason why teachers should need a vacation. An excellent supporter of our teams, a great man with the women and always the center of amusement in any crowd, we say, “Here’s to you, John; great times are ahead in your future.” CAROLYN PRISCILLA COWAN Commercial Carol-n Man has his will, but woman has her way. Home Room Secretary 1; Operetta 2 Glee ('lub 1, 2, 3: Home Room Committee 2 Junior Prom 8; Senior Hop 3; Librarian 3; Spotlight Club 3; Vice President of the Home Ec Club 3; Football Formal 4; Sampler Typist 4; Sub Monitor 4; Junior High Tournament 4; Hi!

Carolyn s interests are many and they include frequent trips to Gageville. Ahmg the secretarial line, Carolyn plans to enter the Packard School, in New York City, next year, where we know she will be a great success.
