Dedication to Napoleon Ianni L 1 Band Director Dear Seniors: A message of this type generally includes admonition and advice concerning the challenges you will face in the future. My experience with your class would seem to indicate that you do not have to be reminded of challenges - as individu- als. and as a group, you have always faced obstacles and challenges with a fierce determination. I would prefer to extend my sincerest appreciation for the many things you have accomplished for the school. It is doubtful if another class can achieve the high scholastic hon- ors that certain members of your class have attained; the spirit and co-operation manifested by most seniors in school activities has been exemplary; the growth of the Student Council and the Monitor Squad has been due, in large meas- ure, to the tireless efforts of your class leaders. Your departure will create a void in the life-blood of the school, but your fine achievements should be sufficient cause for underclassmen to emulate the Class of 1959. Sincerely, Thomas J.

Class Prophecy When Mr. Whalen, now principal of Lunar Public School No. 1, gathered up his long gray beard and whisked over Earth in his two-toned green flying saucer to see how the graduates of the Class of 1959 were doing, he uncovered some astonishing successes. Although he had some trouble locating a few of us, here are his results, in which the psychology class at the Brandon Union High School has shown intense interest. See what conclusions you draw. CHARLOTTE AYER is now the laughing fat lady at the Rutland Fair. JOANNE BAKER is head nurse at Arnold La Rock's White House home and is busy analyzing Arnold. WAYNE BECK and Judy have formed a famous debating team - neither will give in. CAROL BELDEN is in the em- ploy of Moscow as Commissioner of Physics Instruction in Outer Mongolia. TOM BROWN and BRIAN BUTLER are co-leaders of the nationally known jazz band that produced the liveliest ver- sions of Strauss waltzes yet to shock the music world. KEN BROWN was elected mayor of Goshen by a huge majority and is doing fine, despite opposition by the Socialists. SETH CLIFFORD is head of the English department at Wellesley College. PAULINE COUTURE is employed by the Remington Arms Company designing water pistols that can hit a tin can at 300 yards. EILEEN CROSBY is now the head cheerleader for the Globetrotters. ANITA DARLING is mnning an ambulance from Brandon to Rutland. She charges very low rates if you get there alive. JIM DENNEHEY is a hit designing spangled cocktail aprons for French debutantes. MARVIN DODGE has taken over Ryan's Garage and is selling helicopters, which he believes to be safer than automobiles. DORIS ENGLISH is still working at Shapiro's. Two years more and she can retire.

ARLEEN GEARWAR owns an aviation school where she teaches girls to fly Boeing 707 s. BOB GEARWAR works for his sister as a pilot. JOHN GEROW has be- come earth's most daring man on stilts. (When he gets off them, no one knows the difference). CARL GRIFFIN is now running the largest farm in Sudbury. ERNIE GUYETTE is Vice President of Newton and Thompson's and is making hay while the sun shines in the form of $25, 000. a year. RONNIE HAYES is now employed by Pan American Airlines as a mechanic. So far, he has been responsible for seven engine failures. JIM HOPE is boss of a Wild West Rodeo in New Mexico. KEN HUCKINS has taken over the Navy and is contemplating using the aircraft car- riers for tropical cruises. LES JONES is still looking for The Perfect Girl” while modeling bathing suits for Charles Atlas. DAVE JUNE, when he acquired a deep-South drawl, became the Senior Senator from Alabama. Congress has never been the same. The President finally had to give in and ask ARNOLD LAROCK, JR. s advice. GERRI LAROCK has gained fans and lost her ponytail as the female Yul Brynner. LOUISE LECOMPTE is now Editor-in-Chief of Who's Who in America. FLORENCE LENO is running a lizard ranch that specializes in Gila monsters. After graduation, RAY LEWIS left for Arizona and hasn't been seen since. ALLAN LOWELL has a unique new Apache hair cut with the flat top on the back.

DAVE PHILIPSEN is now giving Khrushchev a run for his money by promising aggressive leadership for the Communist party and world domination in five years. PHYLLIS STACY signed up with the Glovetrotters and is touring Antarctica. Her specialty is the jump shot. LLOYD WETMORE, once the quietest boy in the Senior Class, is now WPTR s head disk jockey.

The Seniors DIRECTOR - Mr. Barna Senior Play crMj Sister Eileen ’ The Seniors, through the tireless efforts of Mr. Bama, our director, presented the original version of the Broadway hit, My Sister Eileen. Phylis Stacy and Marcia May as'Eileen and Ruth are two sisters who go to New York City and hire an apartment in Greenwich Village. Apopolus, the landlord, (Les Jones) neglects to tell them that a sub- way is being built under the building. Eileen's many suitors add to the confusion, and Eileen spends the night in jail because of the con- fusion which occurs when the Brazilian Navy visits the apartment. Things really become hot when their father decides to pay them a visit. The laughs were many, and it was one of the biggest highlights of the Senior year! ROW 1; J. Dennehey, T. Brown, R.

Activities One-Act Plays When we were sophs, our pro- duction was Oh, Johnny, a com- edy of filial controversy. After winning the local One-Act Play contest, we went on to Hinesburg for triumphs in the district compe- tition and then participated in the Northern State Championship con- test. Ham Supper As Juniors, we spon- sored what is on its way to becoming an annual event, the Ham Supper. Marcia May was Chairman. Few of us will forget Mr. Fal- lon chopping cabbage and Mrs. Fox washing dishes. The ham was about half an hour late, but it was delicious when it finally Senior Store, Marcia Forguites The next year again brought us the local laur- els.

First was the Ver- mont Association of Student Coun- cils' convention. The Council also sponsored the Halloween party, Freshman Initiation, about 15 as- semblies, and others. In the latter half of the school year, we discussed the feasibility of having a safe driving club and of budgeting the funds of school organizations. The budget plan was rejected by the student body, but they approved the Safe Driving Club. ROW 1: Fales, J. Baker, G. Dennehey, B. Kapitan. ROW 2: Y. Lamoureux, Beckwith, Simonds, Munger, Atwood, W.

H.S. for the two-day state student council convention, held at the school of the VASC president, Eileen Crosby. The months of preparation by the B. H.S. council and Officers, Mr. Whalen, the townspeople, and the VASC executives produced the smooth organization and good program upon which so many dele- gates complimented us. The compactness of B.H.S. and the courtesy shown by everyone provided the friendly atmosphere that makes such a meeting a success. We are proud that the delegates took more back to their schools than merely memories of a good time. Dog Patch, U.S.A. President...............ARNOLD LAROCK, JR. Secretary.................CHARLOTTE FISK Vice President ----- KARLENE WISELL Treasurer - -- -- -- -- STEVE HOOKER The Brandon Youth Center underwent many changes this year due to the hard work and effort of Arnold LaRock, Jr. The name of the Youth Center was changed to Dogpatch, U.S.A. The officers were given such titles as Mayor, Police Commissioner, Town Clerk, and Town Treasurer. Arnold and his fellow officers repainted some of the sections of Dogpatch, as well as sanding and waxing the floor, all of which helped make the Youth Center a more desirable place to attend. F.

These squads were assigned by the week and had charge of discipline during the noon hour programs in the gym and also a study hall. N.H.S. The National Honor Society is an honorary or- ganization which recognizes students for Scholarship, Leadership, Character, and Service. To be considered for this organization, a student must have an aver- age of eighty-five or higher. Science Clubs The Senior Science Club under the guid- ance of the two Bamas and led by Dick Un- ger and the Junior Science Club advised by Mr. Blodgett and presided over by Catherine Holden take in a large number of students interested in science. At our meetings, we listen to speakers, go on field walks, and plan for the local science fair to be held on April 7. Each member is supposed to con- tribute a project; these entries will be judged by the faculty on originality, clarity, worthiness, etc. The winners from Brandon will go on to the state fair in Orleans on April 17.

Book Clubs Visitors at B.H.S. used to cluck over the microscopic library facilities here; the evaluation commit- tee that visited the school last year reported that, in their opinion, Brandon High HAD no library. But now, we are proud to report, a very substantial beginning has been made toward correcting this. The front third of study hall was sectioned off, and the invaluable Mr. Ashley built shelves, the par- tition, and several roomy tables. Now we have a very pleasant and serviceable area for studying, re- search, and reading. Library Club To catalog and care for the steadily in- creasing number of volumes on the new library shelves is the task of the Library Club, and it is a big job. Mrs. Young, guides this active group in its essential work, another example of the responsibility and tmst B.H.S. puts in its students. Junior and Senior Book Clubs The purpose of the two book clubs is to promote interest in reading among the stu- dents. Through their advisors, Mrs. Fox and Mrs. Wyman, the members are able to purchase inexpensive paper-back editions of good literature. The Senior Club alone has ordered over a hundred of these.

SEC OND ROW: Coach Shea, J. Fallon, Germond, R. Lewis, Bird, B. Mumford, Roberts, Forrest, Wagner, Warner. Soccer Though our soccer season was not a winning one, this statement by Coach Shea expresses the school's appreciation of the Bisons. The fact that the Brandon '58 soccer team won two, lost seven, and tied one does not mean that the club had an unsuccessful season. The quality of a player and the values he gains from a sport deter- mine. the success of a season, along with the ability of a boy to give lOO o of himself when representing his school. These are the qualities found in the '58 soccer squad. The record may not go down as a memorable one, but the attitude of the boys is one that should be sought after by every student. As coach, I wish to thank the boys for their co-opera- tion and efforts throughout the season. Mr. Shea LEFT: Coach Shea watches a play. OPPOSITE PAGE: Brandon-Pittsford game.

While winning only five games, the team lost several close ones. Such losses were to MVL cham- pion Ludlow by four points, Proctor by two, Ver- gennes by five, and Poultney by five in an overtime On the whole, the team did very well and earned a play-off game which it lost. Much of the success of the team was due to our Coach Shea. Team members June, Beck, Lewis, Patnode, Mumford, Whalen, Gagnon, Brown, Whittaker, Bird, Varsity Coach Shea, C. Fay, D. Smith, B.

It has com- peted with 10 teams, the majority of which are larger than ours, in 7 races consisting of slalom, jumping, down-hill, and cross- country. Cross-country and jumping have been the events in which the team has done well. Next year it should be strong in cross-country since two of the best runners will be back. • VARSITY Cheerleaders CiosW- yji Ba«ovre c tales. B. CtosDV- 5- , s daras. eoaata. , Gillette ’ c Fis .

BAKER The Bisons had just surged ahead of an undefeated Pittsford team by 2 points in a red-hot basketball game when the rumor spread like lightning - The grade school is on fire! The gym was emptied in min- utes as the spectators rushed out to see the flames pouring forth from the belfry of the old building that had dominated Seminary Hill for almost 130 years. Despite the efforts of the Brandon Fire Department and those of several surrounding towns, the flames spread slowly through the stmcture. When the flames died to smouldering coals the next day the building was a total loss. Now plans are underway for a new school. Although we were sorry to see the old brick building in which some of us spent six years demolished, the students who follow us will have the advantages and improvements which a new school offers.
