F. A. Mercu y Itfs Your Future How many of you in the last few months have run to meet the mailman and have been handed one, two, or maybe more brightly bound paper advertisements, from some college which is trying to entice you to use their school to continue your learning? I know that I have sometimes regarded these little things as a bother and cursed them as just another bundle to load off on the mailman. I said to myself, I know what I want to do, why should I waste my timef, But, do you and I really know what we want to do? We do not realize the magnitude and importance of the choice we are about to make. All our life, up to now, we have been sheltered. You can count on one hand the important decisions we have been faced with up until now. Even these decisions have been made with the aid of parents or other guidance of some sort. Now we are faced with the major decision of our life-that of how we are going to spend the next twenty, thirty, forty or more years. Timev, you may think, 1've got plenty of time to make up my mindf, But, do you? Do you think a year of loaiing will be any help in deciding? This little game would continue and soon it would be too late and another life would have been wasted. VVe canit all be Einsteinis or Eisenhowers but each one of us is a cog, in a great machine. Every job is important, no matter how small, somewhere, there is someone who needs the help that your job gives. Can you let that person down? ' You can get help in deciding. There are pamphlets and books written by people who have studied for just this sort of thing. Men are trained to guide you in making this decision. But, when you get right down to the bare facts, itis you, you as a person, who must make this decision. These trained guidance directors arenit mind readers. Only you know what you want to do or what your secret goal in life is. This decision is not something to be passed off lightly. Think, just think! What you plan to do now may be your lifetime job. Can you afford to make mistakes and to treat this lightly? The answer-is no! This is your future, your life, that you are planning. You are on your own. The decision is up to you. You have been given the foundation, now it is time for you to build. VVhat will you build? VVill you construct a weak structure, one that will crumble and fall, or will you build a strong structure, a good life? How many of you can honestly say i11 your mind, I have made my decision, this is what I Want to do the rest of my life. It is a decision I,m proud of and always will be. This thing you are deciding concerns someone very important, yourself. Your whole life and future is at stake. You have been given the groundwork. Letis see what you can do with it. Take yoiu' life, you are holding it in your hands. Mold it into a life that you can look back on and be proud of. And, when you are old and grey and are sitting in the sunshine, rocking the last few years away, you can say to yourself, 'Tm proud of what Iive done, lim proud of the decisions Iive made, and if I had to do it again, Iid do it againf, B.

Good Cl.ll26HS DAVID BELL BETTY WHITE J 6 B. F. A. Mercury 1 H Class Histor AUDREY LAPLANT AND FRANK HoUL1f: At last we were in high school - only four short years ago we registered in the dining room, scared, meek little freshmen, eyeing one another wondering whether we would ever become acquainted with everything and everybody. After a week of hunting for our rooms, buying books and loose leafs and comparing schedules, we really began to feel at home. We chose Dave Bell, Pete Bostwick, Wanda Chagnon and Gaby Montagne as our class officers. The election of officers was new to us and of course we felt very proud. Just when we were feeling quite important, we were guests of the Sophomores at the Fresh- man Reception. After we had to perform, we realized that we were still F rosh. Even though we were still green, three members of our class made the football team. They were John Bushey, Roddy Vallee, and Dave Bell. As the winter season rolled around, more students answered the call of Mr. White and Mr. Comi. Those who answered Mr. Comiis call were: Marion Bessette, Jill Brown, Betty White, Janet Bugbee, Carol Catlin, Mary Dodds, Sylvia Hebert, Joyce Kendrick, Eulia Soule, Jolly MacArthur, Barbara Paquette, Betty Raymo, Frances Morton, and Margaret McFeeters. Those under the supervision of Mr. White were Pete Bostwick, Dave Bell, Jim Steinhour, John Bushey, Roddy Vallee, Bruce Pierce, Robert Monahan, Morton King, Robert Lemnah, Aubrey Craig, William Crocker and Jerry Shepard. As Freshmen we were given a say in the Student Council. Our representatives were Jill Brown, Roddy Vallee, and Bill Chambers. As Freshmen we also proved our acting ability by winning the Plaque at the Junior Jamboree from the class of R547 Our play, Not Quite Such a Goosev starred the following actresses and actors: Barbara Paquette, Stanley Lareau, Sylvia Creene, Albert Weldon, Betty White. The prompters were Caby Montagne and Nancy Ouellet. Freshmen chosen to complete the cheering squad were Loren Buckley and Judy Hewitt. Averill Moore and Pete Bostwick were selec- ted as members of the Leadership Training Course. As the warm weather came along with base- ball in the air, we found two members of our class in the ranks of the Massamen. They were Jim Steinhour and Bob Monahan. September of 52', brings us back as gallant sophomores. Now that we were no longer be- wildered, we more confidently elected Roddy Vallee, Dave Bell, Joyce Kendrick and Sue Be- noit to lead us through the year. With an immediate job planned for us, we welcomed the Freshmen at the annual reception. This year more members of our class set out to defend the reputation of BFA by fighting under Mr. White on the football squad. They were John Bushey, Roddy Vallee, Pete Bostwick, Dave Bell, Wayne Young, Chester Lampman. Bill Chambers was chosen to perform the duties of assistant manager. Our class was enlarged by a number of trans- fer students. They were: Martha Jewett from Enosburg, Jerry Coad from St. Maryis, Marcel Richards from St. Johnsbury Trade School and George Sweet from Bakersfield. With basketball season coming again we found no new additions from our class on the basketball teams. Members chosen to represent us at the Student Council were Pete Bostwick, Bill Chambers and Roddy Vallee. Frank Houle was elected to head the publicity Committee for the Saturday night dances. B. F. A. 'Mercury 7 The members of our class who worked on the Audio Visual Staff were Robert Austin, Ronald Newton, James Lapan, Stanley Greene and Rob- ert Hemond.

When the majorettes were formed, we found two of our class participating. They were Mar- garet McFeeters and Pat Rooney, who was selec- ted to be the captain. Bill Chambers, Sylvia Greene and Robert Lemnah were members of the School Orchestra. Those starring in the Junior Jamboree in our play, The Dearly Departedv were Pat Rooney, Carol Catlin, Stanley Lareau, Ross Ferland, Judy Hewitt, and Robert Norton.

Carol Catlin, Betty White, Bill Chambers and Robert Lemnah were chosen to play in the All State Band. Pat Rooney was selected to partici- pate in the All State Chorus. When September of 1954 came, we were seniors. The election of officers was a more important task this year. We chose John Bushey, Joyce Kendrick, Betty Ladue and Lorraine Pas- man as our leaders. John Bushey was elected president of the Ski Club. Seniors participating in the Fall Frolics, and of course adding much talent, were Frank Houle, Lorraine Pasman, Judy Daley, Robert Lemnah, Carol Catlin, Sylvia Greene and Bill Chambers. Senior members of the Red Cross Council were Alice Mayhew, Reid Mayo, and Gaby Mon- tagne. Carol Catlin won first prize for her essay on the United Nations.

As seniors we were proud to present the annual Senior Play, The Patsyf, Those showing their superior acting ability were Pat Rooney, Sue Benoit, Stanley Lareau, Slyvia Greene, Rob- ert Wood, Dave Bell, and Dawn Sweeney. Outstanding students of our class were Betty White and Dave Bell who won the Good Citizen- ship Awards for 1955. With spring rolling around and preparations for the Junior Jamboree in order we found Pat Rooney, Sylvia Greene, Stanley Lareau, Robert Wood, Robert Norton and the prompters, Mar- garet McFeeters and Sue Benoit rehearsing the winning play, 'iThank You Doctorf, April 27 was a special day for the members of the Senior Class, for on this day the Seniors gathered for the annual Senior Supper. The baseball season found Jim Steinhour the star pitcher for BFA. As graduation drew near we found ourselves preparing for finals, those who would have to take them, Tree Day, Baccalaureate, Class Night and Graduation. This concludes the activities of the Class of 55',. We hope future classes will follow us in setting a good example for others and in making BFA a good school. 8 B. F. A.

Mercury 9 r l Class Prophec' By Susan Benoit and Reid Mayo The story you are about to hear is true. Only the facts are fictitious. It was Iune 13. My partner Sine F oot Benoit and I were working the third watch out of the robbery division. At approximately 3:15 p.1n. we received an urgent call from the principal of Bellows Free Academy, George E. Sweet. He reported that two folders were missing from the office files. At once we sensed that this would be a hard case to crack. Upon further investigation we discovered that the missing folders were numbers 1975 and 1976, and it contained vital information on members of the class of 1955. All night long we questioned the office help. Sylvia Hebert, Mr. Sweet's secretary, told us that she saw a suspicious looking character loitering around the building all day. i : Fingerprint men and photographers under the able direction of Rodney Preston and Clark Hubbard made their investigation. Their reports along with the description of the suspects pro- vided by the secretary, was sent along to head- quarters for further investigation. We released all of the office help as we had no conclusive evidence to hold them on, but we kept a tail on the most suspicious acting, Kathryn Gross and Betty Raymo. A 24 hour surveillance was kept on the build- ing, and our two best and speediest men Pool Cuev Pierce and Chalkdustv Steinhour were assigned to the case. On June 14, we began questioning the mer- chants along the thoroughfare. John Bushey, Ir., a local sporting goods dealer, told us a suspicious acting stranger had bought a gun on the twelfth. The case seemed to be getting somewhere. When asked whether male or female, Mr. Bushey couldnit remember. We immediately got locals and APB's out on the suspect. 12:36 a.m.- Sine Foot and I returned to the City Hall. On the way up to the lab, we stopped in at the office of the head janitor, Har- vey S. Shnoper. Mr. Shnoper is one of our con- tacts with the underworld. We asked him if he could throw some light, on the case, but he declined to comment for reasons of personal safety. As we arrived at the door of the lab we were met by our head pathologist, Johnson Coon. He had the report on the fingerprints taken at the scene of the crime. We now took this report down to the file room to check the fingerprints. We found that the suspect had no previous record. 1:24 a.m.-Discouraged, we returned to our office. We finished our paper work and we were about to leave when the phone rang. It was the ticket agent at the railroad station, Dave Bell. He had heard our announcement over the radio, and he wanted to report that he had just sold a ticket to a stranger who was headed for Azuza, which is near Cuckamonga. We rushed down to the station and boarded the Central Vermont Super Chief. After boarding the train we noticed the conductor, Norman Trombley, checking on a recent innovation, Salami Sal and her Six Sand- wich Slingcrs. Salami Sal was Pat Rooney and her assistant Salami Slinger was Margie Mc- F eeters. 2:11 a.m.-A two-hour wait in New York City gave us enough time to see the bright lights of Broadway. Judy Daley was opening that night in the greatest show ever to hit Broadway . . . . . . Babes and Mollsf, Our last stop was at Cisseero,s.,' Appearing with top billing were Sylvia Greene, Bob Lemnah, Bill Chambers, Carol Catlin, Bob Norton and friends, profes- 10 B. F. A. Mercury sionally known as The Tuxedo Sixty-Two Plus Fourf, June 21, 5:00 a.m.-We arrived in Azuza which is next to Cuckamonga. My sharp eye caught a sleeky looking character in a trench coat leaving the platform. The suspect got into a cab. We took the next cab that came along. We told the driver, Ronald Lehmann, to follow. The car in front of us came to a halt near the docks on River Street. Our suspect entered a dark secluded place. We followed right behind him. VVe knew the code. We knocked three times and whispered low that we were sent by Joe. We struck a match and knew that we were in Hernandois Hideway. O-Lay!! We were now in the undergroundis secret hiding place. YOU know the place, silhouettes, castenets, a glass of wine and a fast embrace. We spotted our suspect in the corner. He was having a tete-a-tete with another person. The smoke was so thick we could not see their faces. The manager came out of his office and called in the two men. Through the smoke I could distinguish the manager as being, Ross Ferland. The waitress, who said her name was Jeannine Ott, served us our buttermilk. We could not think of any possible connection be- tween the manager and the unknown suspects. A few minutes later the door of the office opened and out came the two that we were following. They left through a side door and we quickly followed. 6:20 a.m.-We now decided to apprehend the suspects as we were accomplishing nothing by following them. When we approached them they made a mn for it. The chase was on ! We called for help and two of our musclemen, Jerry Shepard and Wayne Young, came to the rescue with other policemen in the vicinity. 6:22 a.m.-I thought I saw one of the fugi- tives and I stopped to question him. This proved to be mighty embarrassing for it was the First Lady of Azuza, Mayor Gabrielle Montague, out for an early morning stroll. Those boy hair cuts always fool me. The chase led to the Waterfront Ticket Office and to an ocean liner just getting ready to shove off. My partner and I barely made it on board. We were lucky enough to acquire a cabin on the main deck. From our vantage point we could see all the activity on ship. Search as long as we did we still couldnit find our suspect on board. Since we were stuck on ship we decided to enjoy ourselves. June 22--The first night out we dined with the captain, Robert Hojaboom. The evening was uneventful. Two days passed! We still hadn't seen any signs of our suspect. Two weeks passed! We asked the captain to have the ship searched from stem to stern and in the middle, too. Sept. 28-Two months passed! We began to think our suspects were not aboard. Out on the briny, with the moon big and shiny: then it struck us . . . We were on a Slow Boat to Chinaf, Oct. 12-Two weeks passed! The whole ship wa sstruck with a violent case of food poisoning. We called in the head cook, Frank Houle, along with his able assistants, James LaPan and How- ard Ward. After being thoroughly interrogated, we released them. We came to the conclusion there wasnit any connection between our case and this episode. Two days later we docked in Hong Kong at 1:00 p.m. After checking with chief customs inspector, Robert Wood, we decided to inspect a few of the better establishments for clues. Our first stop was at Hewitts and Jewetts Greasy Spoon. We talked with the owners Judy Hewitt and Martha Jewett, and the waitresses Joyce Ken- drick and Jolly Jean MacArthur. None of them could remember seeing the suspects in the res- taurant. 2:00 p.m--VVe headed for the business dis- trict. Our first stop was at the Central Asia Trading Post run by Armand Perrault who had had previous experience at this work. As he was unable to tell us anything, we moved on down the streets, Where we passed many well-known establishments such as LaPlant and Lagrowis Plant Shopi' and Little's Big Bargain Shopf and Powers Muscle Building Establishmenti' run by Norman Powers. But we were unable to get leads at any of these places. The main attraction in town that evening was a basketball game featuring the great U. S. OLYMPIC TEAM, the Globe Crawlersf, The captain, Marion Bessette,, led her squad com- posed of Janet Bugbee, Eulia Soule, Betty White, Barbara Paquette and Sheila Peters. Selling peanuts in the peanut gallery were Janice Fitz- gerald and Betty Ladue. We attended the game L ! B. F. A. Mercury 11 hoping to locate our suspects. But our efforts were in vain. 10:00 p.m.-Seeing as we were getting no- where fast my partner and I decided to go back to Azuza, which is near Cuckamonga. 10:30 p.m.-We boarded our DC3 and were greeted by our hostess, Lorraine Pasman. The pilot and co-pilot, Robert Austin and Stanley Cameron assured us we would have a smooth trip. They did not foresee motor trouble and we were forced down in Hawaii. The official greet- er, Francesca Mortona and her swaying girls gave us a royal welcome. Within the hour our plane was in working condition. The job had required the expert knowledge of the Air Force mechanics john Tatro, Marcel Richards, and George Brown. 7 10:00 a.m.--We landed at Azuza Airdrome, which is near Cuckamonga. 10:30 a.m.-We checked in at headquarters. Chief Inspector Coad asked us to make an ac- counting of our actions. After being interroga- ted by Inspector Goad we returned to our office to check our back work. 11:45 a.m.-A lady by the name of Betty Tipper came to our office claiming she might be able to help us solve the case. She said she knew where the suspect we were looking for was hid- ing. My partner and I listened attentively while she filled us in on the details. 12:30-We had Pat Benoit, owner of the corner drugstore bring us up sandwiches and coffee. 1:15-With our plans carefully laid, we went to Hollywood, which is not too far from Azuza, which is near Cuckamonga. We dropped in on one of our under-cover agents, Reggie Quilliam, who had all the dope on wanted criminals. After hearing our story, he was convinced that this was one crimi- nal that he had no dope on, in fact he had never heard of a criminal by that description. 4:00 p. in.-While we were thinking out our next move, I went into a barbershop to get a haircut. The barber, Mary Ann Cerreto, put in her two cents as to how to solve the case. While sitting there, I noticed that a 1942 Chevrolet coupe had driven up behind the car that Wanda Chagnon, Theresa Portelance, and Mary Lemnah, three of our best lady detectives, had just gotten out of. I had Sergeant Chagnon put one of her best police- women, Margaret Newton, to tail this character. When Miss Newton reported we planned our raid and we were ready to go. 5:15 p.m.--The place was a little house on the corner of Hollywood and Broadway, which was in a moderate section of the city. The re- sults of the raid were disappointing. There were two ladies living there. They were Concetta Churchill and Viola Nichols, and they did handy work all day, reported a next door neighbor Diane Marshia. At night they went from door to door selling their finely woven articles. Another dead end. VVe decided to go back to Vermont and see if we could piece this thing together. 11:30 a.m.-Our train left Azuza which is near Cuckamonga. 12:30 a.m.-Our train stopped at Chicago where we had to wait two hours for connections. In the meantime we met with the head of the world famous Chicago Police Department, Robert Wheelock. We asked him his expert advice. After advising us as to what course to take, he assigned two of his best men, Bruiser,' Bostwick and 'KBobon Montgomery to help us on the case. 1:15--Our train left Chicago. Conductor Victor Jacques and porter Stanley Greene were very cooperative in seeing that we were not dis- turbed during our trip. 2:30 p.1n.-We arrived in New York. Ticket agent Morton King in- formed us that our train for Vermont would not leave until 7:20 the next morning. 3:00 p.m.-We were approached by the presi- dent of C.B.S. television Harold Berger, who asked us if we would be able to participate in a panel show that evening, whereby we would be questioned by a group of world famous news- paperwomen concerning the case we were now working on. We accepted his invitation and we agreed to be at the studio at 7:30. Up until this time we had not realized that our investigations had reached world wide attention. 7:30 p.m.-We now were on television. The world famous newspaperwomen on the panel consisted of Ieannette Benoit, Ioy Casavant, Beverly Berger, Dorothy Hazard, Anita Plouffe and Dawn Sweeney. After clearing up several points of public interest concerning the case, we had to decline further questioning because we might give out vital information concerning the case. Just then my partner nudged me. Sure enough, there they were over there in the corner. We had spotted our suspects in the audience of the TV program. They were not men as we had sus- pected but they were women. 8:10 p.m.-We 1:2 B. F. A. Mercury had the receptionist, Nancy Ouellet, call the lieadquarters of the New York police for help. 'We knew that we were dealing with desperate crimnals and we could not atlord to take chances. 8:30 p.m.-Lt. Gaylord Boucher arrived with his riot squadv and they threw a dragnet around the area. 8:45 p.m.-Head ushers at the studio, W'illiam Crocker and Robert Bombardier, quiet- ly asked the people sitting around the suspects to move. We were taking every precaution for the personal safety of everyone involved. 9:00 p.m.-Now that the area around the suspects was cleared, we had the television broadcast stopped just as Stanley Lareau was making his debut in the most dramatic sensation of the season- Shake, Rattle and Rollv. Our suspects quickly caught on to what we were doing and tried to make a break for it. They were quickly apprehended, with not too much trouble. 9:45 p.m.-Our suspects were booked at headquarters on suspicion of robbery. Their prints were taken, and were sent down-stairs to the iile room to be checked by Roddy Vallee, the expert in this field. 10:45 After an hour of in- terrogation the suspects still had not confessed to having taken the file. 11:15 They broke, They confessed to having taken the folders. But they still would not tell us why. 11:30 Madeline .,. .Afi- jones, Mr. Valleeis secretary, brought in his re- port on the suspects. They had been identified as ..... Pat Kalahari and Averill Moore. Now the big question was, WHY? Why had they taken the files from the office of their Alma Mater? Finally they broke down and told us that they had applied for a job at the Mayhew Sanitorium for the Mentally lncurable. Miss Nlayhew wanted only employees of the highest mentality, and she had told them she would have to examine their high school marks before she could hire them. Not wanting Miss Mayhew to see their terrible marks, Miss Kalahari and Miss Moore had stolen them. Then when Miss May- hew sent for their marks there wouldnit be any tell-tale marks against them. That way they had a better chance of getting the positions at the sanitorium. They were put under guard of policewoman janet Messier, until the time of the trial. Now the results af the private hearing held in the Police Chiefis office: Since it was their first oitense, the judge dismissed the two with a mild reprimand. And thus ended the case of the missing files. This has been a Hiram Bellows production. The Director was George Wood, jr. The part of the judge was played by E. Sunderland.

Mercury 13 I Advice to the nder raduates CAROL CATLIN AND DAVID BELL In past years, it has been customary that the outgoing seniors leave with the undergrads morsels of advice. The class of 1955 has set superior examples which we believe the under- graduates are worthy enough to pursue. It is with deep regret that we leave you underclass- men, but know you regret even more the event of our parting. To the in-coming freshmen, we have just two words of advice: Gain Altitude. We ask the freshmen to please refrain from boldness. It doesnlt suit their stature as under- classmen. Sophomores, next year you will have passed the point of 110 return. You will be upperclass- men. Shed your foolish ways and conduct your- self like the Juniors this year havenit. Seniors-to-be, donlt lose hope. Your sentence is up next year and you will become free men. Since high school students are supposed to he worldly-wise and sophisticated, we advise all underclassmen to do away with their sticky lollipops and assume a more dignified pastime. Now a word from the wise to students whom we think could profit from some good unsound advice and our advice is: That Kay Ready and Mary Ellen Gillespie stay away from sun lamps. Cherry red comple- xions a1'en't the style this year. That Judy Gregg control her emotions when she gets excited in front of certain people. That B.F.A. install a lost and found depart- ment for such articles as money, books, clothing, boyfriends and freshmen. That B. F. A. boys purchase a new compass that doesn,t point north all the time. That Rita Ploof keep at the right of the hall in passing so she won't get trampled on. That Lynn Wood buy some good warm clothes-it's cold in Eskimo land. That Tom Cummings take a few Casanova lessons from John Bushey. That Gail Montgomery throw out an extra big net, Dave Reirdon is quite a catch. That Mary Lou Burnor and Mary Ellen Gillespie strengthen their writing hands-theylll need them next year. That Sandy Rath take a few hints from ltsy Hogan on how to hold a man. That some trustworthy underclassmen keep promoting good will between B. F. A. and B. H. S. as Bob VVheelock alld Jimmy Steinhour have done. That Greg Pierce follow Bruce in his superior driving skill. That Linda Soule set her clocks hack to standard time so that she will be sure to get to school on time. That Bobby Pierce keep his stories about girls at Stowe to himself. That Buzz Sylvester find a girl. We have offered this advice with malice toward none, but we hope it will not be entirely unacknowledged. 14 B. F. A.
