Left to right: R. Bassett, W. Jones, C. Campbell, R. Gaboon. A S star reporter,” my assignment this year was to cover the Senior Class of Bourne High. Quite an assignment, but quite a class! My first story of the year was election day. I found that the safest place to be was hanging from the chandeliers of the study hall. In this way I found that Ronnie Bassett was president; Bob Gaboon, vice- president; Crys Campbell, treasurer and Winnie Jones, secretary. After that episode I vowed I would resign but I couldn’t help going to the Senior Class Play to see all those Brandos and Hepburns put on that hilarious play, The Babbling Brooks.” President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Ronald Bassett Robert Cahoon Winifred Jones Crystal Campbell 10

My football reports showed Ronnie Bassett, Barry Girard, Harry Curry and Paul Cardoza fighting for the Purple and White. When basketball season rolled around I was furi- ous when I got hit by a basketball. It almost knocked me out of a job. But all was forgiven when I realized it was the Senior girls — Patsy Medeiros, Marcia Sorenti, Alice Rigazio and Donna Spectre. In ad- dition to the girls on the team Crys Campbell and Joan Ojala were team managers and two of their class- mates, Mary Ann Bernabei and Sandra Long were on the cheerleading squad. Then I was hit again by a basketball. This time I was even more furious, for Bob Cahoon, Peter Mackesy and Elbert Pipkins were not as pretty as the girls. Other events I had to cover were; election of Ron- nie Bassett as student government representative, Winifred Jones winning the D.A.R. Award, Joan Ojala winning the Betty Crocker and Bausch and Lomb Awards, and the Honor Society induction with senior members. Bob Merchant, Mary Ann Bernabei, Crys Campbell, Joan Ojala, Marcia Sorenti, Winnie Jones, and Patsy Medeiros, the latter two inducted in January. After following the Seniors to New York and Washington, then coming home to capture the hap- piness of graduated Seniors with their much coveted diplomas, my job was done. It has been quite an assignment, but I hope that in my reponing I have been able to catch a bit of the hopes and joys of a wonderful year in the lives of the Class of ’58. 11
