We feel very happy that you are here to witness another step along the pathway of our lives. Through many years you have led us to this door whose threshold we shall pass tonight for the last time. We realize that it has been difficult for some to reach this goal, but by your assistance and through our own initiative, all have persevered successfully. With the guidance of parents, friends, faculty, and classmates, we have ad- justed our faltering steps so that we have benelitted from an education. Not only has knowledge been the resultg we have developed an ability to work with and to live with othersg we understand how to ap- praise the character of a fellow classmate and to accept or reject him-an act permissible in only a nation 6 such as ours. As we have grown in years, so, too, the journey along the pathway has continued. Now we all have completed one phase of our work and will open the door to more learningg these years are not the termi- nating ones in our lives. Many of us will advance to further educationg some will enter the armed forces or will become homemakers or tradesmen. As our ap- propriate motto states: Not finishedg just begun, we realize that our lives are continuing. We have reached another milestoneg the long, winding road to it has been wonderful! Our lives, united as one during these high school years will be remembered always. We hope that, when the final door is closing, happy memories will remain as they do today. So, now, our graduation exercises have begun. Welcome! -fozefa Antoinette Buraczyrzrka T H E C O LO N E I.

We were Freshmen. Yes, sir, we felt proud that morning as we walked up the steps to the old fHa! Halj High School. Now I know that a lot has been said about the school, and I don't want you to get me wrong about this. It was an adequate school as far as it went. You've heard of Room 20, no doubt. That was the combination indoctrination center, testing grounds for the latest paper airplanes, meeting place, assembly hall, and casino. Oh, yes, it was used as a study hall also. It was this room that we, the class of 1954, were herded into like sardines that first day. In this room we were confronted with Carl f Peop.te, your dues are payable now J Miller, who meant to say, Peo- ple, your dues are payable now! After things were rolling smoothly--although we gathered no moss, we did collect a Stone-we elected as our class officers: JOHN NOYES, President, SU- SAN HEBB, Vice President, DONALD OSBORN, Treasurer, and FAYE JOHNSON, Secretary. Mondays were the days when we were forced to eat sog dogs or starve. Also upon the third floor was a very interesting machine. At first glance, it looked like a Coke dispenser, but actually this was a very cleverly disguised gambling device. Who will ever for- get the joy of getting from five to ten Cokes for the price of a nickel or the sorrow of getting nothing? When Andy Natowich came around singing his theme song, You, You, You , ROBERT WARWICK, PAUL DYE, JOE TATRO, ARNOLD WILSON, KENNETH BENSON, KENNETH ORNE, and PHIL KEMPF jumped into their pads a.nd could be seen every afternoon until dusk upon the hill playing pick up sticks. Also playing something were, KATIE JONES, ADELE BAKER, GLADYS FRINK, JOAN FRENCH, BEVERLEY ROBERTS, SUSAN HEBB, GERALDINE SEARLES, BRADFORD SARGENT, DAVID MIL- LER, JOHN NOYES, PETER ESTABROOK, DON OSBORN, and CLIFFORD MARTELLE. First period every Monday and Tuesday they made the rafters ring with sweet . . . er . . . ah.. . . ah . . .? Out in front of the tooting, squirming mob stumbled ANN HIL- SON, ANN MALCOLM, GAIL FANNING, and MARILYN PAGE with their dropless batons. That year the magazine drive took in 33,386.40 The homeroom lieutenants who helped to make the drive a success were KENNY ORNE, BERT BALDWIN, BEV WEATHERHEAD, and KATIE JONES. Freshmen initiation! Do you know the date when we were initiated? You guessed it! It was Friday the 13th. Freshman Year 1954 vnnsoox That winter we were represented on the slopes by FRED DALEM, JOHN NOYES, PETER ESTA- BROOK, BERT BALDWIN, GUY DAVIS, and BILL EMERY. Oh, yes, we don't want to forget DON stern turn OSBORN. In 1950 the school had two basketball teams, one for the girls and one for the boys-I mean men. They were JO-ANN KEITH, GAIL FANNING, and ANN MALCOLM for the girls, and JOE TATRO, PHIL KEMPF, ARNOLD WILSON, ROBERT WARWICK, and PAUL DYE for the boys-I mean men! Now don't get the impression that all the Freshmen had was brawn! No sir! We had brains also. There was the writing type like LEWIS YOUNG and GAIL FANNING, who won a Cheer Writing Contest. We had the reporting type-BERT BALDWIN on the Spotlight Board. There was the representative type like PAUL DYE and KATIE JONES who stood up for our rights on the Student Council. Spring rolled around before we knew it and JOE TATRO, PHIL KEMPF, RONNIE TIER, and JOHN KOSHINSKY voluntered to rake off the diamond. Also up on the hill we could see KEN ORNE and JOE DYE sacheting around the oval with PAUL ODLE managing them. It surely sounds as though we had a fine start on our high school career, doesn't it! Here's NANCY MORRILL to tell you more about it. -Peter Webrter Erlabrook Sophomore Year The town of Brattleboro had at last taken pity on us poor, little, studious students who had been gal- loping through the dismal, creaking halls of the an- cient dungeon-er-high school for centuries and had built us a new one. All summer long we watched with bated breath as the beautiful building grew. Finally, in September of 1951, to our bitter disappointment, this structure was ready to receive the joyfulf?J pupils who were dying to get back to their studies. We moved in-bag and baggage. No sooner were we all crushed inside when the floor sank about two inches and the walls cracked, to our horror! Our new home didn't collapse, however, and we were forced to come back the next day and re- sume the old routine of shooting spit balls--er- studying! Even in the new school, Uncle Carl Miller, our cherished relic of the old high and the good old days was standing at the door with outstretched palms, beg- ging for alms. We, now super-superior sophomores, sat back- and have been doing so ever since-er-sat back and 21 gleefully observed the poor little freshmen and fresh- girls go through the tortures and terrors of freshmen initiation which we had survived, by luck only, the year before. E We elected PAUL MILLER as our president. Shortly thereafter he became the first four-legged officer in the new high school by hopping around on crutches. Since he, being an invalid evidently needed help, JUDY COLE volunteered for the office of veep. ANN MALCOLM jotted down all the many millions of im- portant accomplishments that our classic class carried through. BOB WARWICK had a jolly time spending our hard-earned money. To make sure that the school affairs were run prop- erly, we elected BEV ROBERTS, BOB WARWICK and BOB TUDOR to the Student Council. With these three in there the sophomore class got off with just two years' hard labor and two years' class dues for bail. Several talented classmates made the beautiful music in choir and orchestra. In the former were DAVE MILLER, LEW YOUNG, JUDY COLE, MARY ROONEY, MARYANN JASIENOWSKI, CONNIE ALLEN, ADELE BAKER, KATIE JONES, and NANCY MORRILL. Orchestra members were MARY ROONEY, KENNY ORNE, JOHN HOPKINS, JOAN FRENCH, ADELE BAKER, PETE ESTA- BROOK, DON OSBORN, BERT BALDWIN and PAUL MILLER. In the spotlight for the Spotlight were PAUL MILLER, BERT BALDWIN, SUE HEBB, and FREDA DILLBACK, Miss Lord's best helpers. Were we on the spot! The mighty gladiators of the gridiron glorifying our class at football were BOB WARWICK, ARNIE BLACKSTONE, DON OSBORN, PHIL KEMPF, KEN ORNE, JOE DYE, ARNIE WILSON and BIG JOE TATRO. Backing up their terrific tackling with terrific band music were KATIE JONES, BRAD SARGENT, DON OSBORN, JOHN HOPKINS, BILL EMERY, ADELE BAKER, MARY ROONEY, BEV ROBERTS, JOAN FRENCH, WES PHILLIPS, DAVE MILLER and PETE ESTABROOK all under the able direction of Mr. Carville. Adding sugar, spice and everything nice to the games were ANN MALCOLM fShe's sugarj, ANN HILSON QShe's spicej and MARILYN PAGE QShe's everything nicej, ,cause that's what little girls are made of. GAIL FANNING was the girl with the cheering voice. Showing the opposing teams the techniques of bas- ketball, and doing a fine job, were, BOB WARWICK, PHIL KEMPF, JOE TATRO, and ARNIE WILSON. Down the slopes at speeding speeds, freezing their noses flashed FRED DALEM, DONNY OSBORN QDON, by the way, won a gold pin at Hogback for going down the trail in less than fifty seconds that 22 yearj and BERT BALDWIN, who, after pounding the slopes hurried home to pound the ivories on his piano. Spring sprang and with it came our superior base- ball team. Important players were ARNIE BLACK- STONE, JOE TATRO, and PHIL KEMPF, Displaying their terrific talents tearing around the track were DON OSBORN, WILLIE WILSON, BOB WARWICK, and JAMIE ORNE, Yes, Sophomores-Wise fools! We were the wisest fools ever to fool away a year in B.H.S. -Nancy Elaine Morrill Junior Year In September of 1952, a new era started for the class of '54. We were now upperclassmen! Coming to school that year with nothing but study and hard work in mind, we tried once again to prove to all that we were going to be the best class ever to graduate from B.H.S. Kicking up turf for Coach Andy Natowich in football were, PHIL KEMPF, BOB WARWICK, WILLIE WILSON, JOE TATRO, ARNOLD BLACK- STONE, BUNNY KERYLOW, KENNY ORNE, and PAUL A. DYE. Andy was trying desperately to show his boys the art of ballet. Out there to cheer them on were two of our own, MARYANN JASIENOWSKI and GAIL FANNING. Those seeking greener pastures in the fall of '52 were PAT BUEB, CONNIE ALLEN, DONALD UN- DERWOOD, and EDDIE HANNETT. Their places were filled by EDWARD KENNEY, ED GOODELL, BUNNY KERYLOW, and JO BURACZYNSKA. The weekly news-hunters from the Spotlight un- der boss Lord were ANN HILSON, SUE HEBB, BERT BALDWIN, MARYANN JASIENOWSKI, and FREDA DILLBACK. Snooping down halls, peeking through keyholes, these reporters were everywhere! The executive board consisted of BOB WARWICK as president, with secretary JOAN STILLWELL taking notes very carefully from his knee. BEV ROBERTS assisted the president to her full capacity as vice-presi- dent. Treasurer was JOE TATRO. That was the year I started driving the family car-provided that I put in the gas. Got around a lot that year! For the seventh time we were state champs in the annual magazine drive. Why not, with SUE HEBB and PAUL MILLER as assistant secretary and busi- ness manager, and BEV ROBERTS, JOAN FRENCH, ARNOLD BLACKSTONE, JO-ANN KEITH, and BOB WARWICK as home room lieutenants! When fall fell that year, out on the hardwood were WILLIE WILSON, PHIL KEMPF, BOB WAR- WICK, BUNNY KERYLOW, JOE TATRO, while THE COLONEL BLACKIE BLACKSTONE washed anc' ironed the uniforms. High-stepping their way in front of the band were majorettes ANN MALCOLM, ANN HILSON, and MARILYN PAGE. Providing the beat for their steps were junior class members BEV ROBERTS, KATIE JONES, JOHN HOPKINS, JOAN FRENCH, MARY ROONEY, ADELE BAKER, DAVE MILLER, PETE ESTABROOK, and EDDIE GOODELL. Laws were made and enforced by student council members BEV ROBERTS, SUE HEBB, PAUL MIL- LER, BOB WARWICK, JOE TATRO, and DONNY OSBORN. During these months since school had started, the pocketpickers Qknown as homeroom treasurersj, by force of the iron hand of Carl Miller, were pleading, crying, and threatening in order to get us to pay our class dues. They were ANN HILSON, CONNIE POT- ASH, CONNIE ALLEN, CORINTHA DOYLE, and ROBERT TUDOR. Zooming down the slopes during the winter of '52- '53 was our own DON fScratch, scratch!J OSBORN. He also helped us win the crown in our annual win- ter carnival that year. Back in the music room on Wednesdays during third period and screeching-oh, sorry, Miss Gates- singing at the tops of their lungs, were MARY ROONEY, KATIE JONES, SUE HEBB, NANCY MORRILL, ADELE BAKER, MARYANN JASIE- NOWSKI, KEN ORNE, JOE DYE, DON OSBORN, PAUL MILLER, DAVID MILLER, LEWIS YOUNG, and JOAN FRENCH. Mr. Gregg showed CHARLES LACLAIR, PETE BENWARE, HAROLD DOMPIER, TERRY LAW- TON, PAUL MILLER, WILLIAM EMERY, PHIL BACON, KENNY ORNE and RALPH BOLSTER the art of spreading manure, it was dilieult to keep just mud on your shoes while doing it, huh, RALPH? Too quickly the winter months passed. One of the biggest problems facing the baseball team was how to get from the gym to the diamond without sinking in two feet of mud. The only three survivors of this feat were PHIL KEMPF, JOE TATRO, and BUNNY KERYLOW. Meanwhile, WILLIE WILSON, DONNY OS- BORN, KEN ORNE, MIKE GIALLELLA, JOE DYE, BILL EMERY, ALBERT MIKUSKI, PETE ESTA- BROOK, PHIL KEMPF, ARNOLD BLACKSTONE, and BOB WARWICK ran, jumped, and hurled the javelin on the track team. The Junior Prom was highly recommended as the most elaborate and successful in the history of B.H.S. Good planning and initiative were shown by the following committees: Decorations-PETE ESTA- BROOK, JOE DYE, JO-ANN KEITH, KEN ORNE, WILLIE WILSON, GUY DAVIS, MARYANN 'I954 YEARBOOK JASIENOWSKI, MARILYN PAGE, ANN MAL- COLM, ANN HILSON, DON OSBORN, PHIL KEMPF, JOAN HEWITT, and GAIL FANNING: Dance Program-BOB WARWICK, DON OSBORN, GAIL FANNING and MARYANN JASIENOWSKIQ Publicity-SUE HEBB, JOAN STILLWELL, JOE DYE, KEN ORNE, Refreshments-MARILYN PAGE, BEV ROBERTS, GRACE HECTOR, and NANCY RICE. Chosen by the class to attend Girls' State were MARY ROONEY, ANN MALCOLM, and JOZEFA BURACZYNSKA. Boys' State delegates were PHIL KEMPF, KEN ORNE, PAUL MILLER, BOB WAR- WICK, BUNNY KERYLOW, and JOE TATRO, At last our third year of high school came to a close. Joy and sorrow were mingled. We realized that only one more year lay ahead of us, but we realized also that when we next entered this building again, we would be SENIORSI -Joseph famer Tatro Senior Year It was an odd body that was herded into the rooms which were to be known as the Senior Sanctuariesf' Some were to feel the cold clammy hands of Crazy- legs Miller squeezing the gold out of their teeth, others the frigid, penetrating stare of Fuzzy, but still no hair, Davis, a few the warm motherly love of Miss Sweet Sixteen-Plus Lord, and the rest were to reside in the balmy atmosphere of-Wow!-Made moiselle Gres chic!J Baroudjian. Why do I say we were odd P Well-did you ever hear of a senior class having all girls for oiiicers, IOOW paid dues, such a high standard for future classes to meet, and with only such a small class as this? The lasses that manipulated our doings are: Presi- dent, JO BURACZYNSKA fYou have to spit that name.J Vice-President, MARY ROONEYQ Secretary, JOAN STILLWET-er--I mean STILLWELLg and Treasurer, KATIE JONES. Yes, we must be odd! When Coach, I eat Wheaties three meals a day, Natowich chore his zfolunteerr for the cleanup com- mittee or better known as the football squad, he se- lected eleven from the class of '54, They were DONNY OSBORN, JOE TATRO, WILLIE WILSON, BUNNY KERYLOW, BOBBY WARWICK, RONNIE TIER, CHUCK LACLAIR, ARNOLD BLACKSTONE, JOE DYE, and Co-Captains KEN ORNE and PHIL KEMPF. With an incomparable eight wins and no loss record, they wowed everyone except those selecting the state champs. The lucky members who joined our faculty this year were: COACH ROUNDS, MR. STRONG, MLLE. BAROUDJIAN, MR. WHITE and MR. 8: MRS. SCOTT. SHERRY BARTON and SALLY LAW- 23 RENCE were the only pupil additions to our group. What else would you want! Soon after the boys put their helmets and shoulder pads in moth balls, as if the moths would do much damage to steel helmets, some of the boys tried their luck at the game of, Well, somebody's got to lose, basketball. Those seniors making the grade were: Cap- tain PHIL KEMPF, JOE TATRO, WILLIE WILSON, BUNNY KERYLOW, and BOBBY WARWICK. They were tutored by Hawk Eyes Rounds in his first year at B.H.S. Although their record wasn't too im- pressive, they surely looked sharp in shorts. MARY- ANN I put the Jazz in JASIENOWSKI and GAIL FANNING, the lasses who worked themselves into such a frenzy that they yelled, jumped, and pounded away on the floor, were our. contribution to the cheer- ing squad. When champion hog caller Gates started yodeling from the door of the music room, MARYANN JASIE- NOWSKI, MARY ROONEY, ELOISE THURBER, JOE DYE, KEN ORNE, LEWIS YOUNG, MARCIA STONE, ADELE BAKER, NANCY MORRILL, BLANCHE NADEAU, BOB TUDOR, GAIL FAN- NING, JO BURACZYNSKA, KATIE JONES, SU- SAN HEBB, and PAUL MILLER came running or dragging as the case may be. To the disappointment of most PAUL DYE was the exception-as usual, we didn't get choir robes. What's this I heard? It must be a truckload of RALPH BOLSTER'S cows by the sound! No? Why! It's-It's the band! And look at the girls twirling the batons. They're ANN MALCOLM, MARILYN PAGE, and ANN HILSON. And there are JOHN HOPKINS, BEV ROBERTS, JOAN FRENCH and PETE ESTABROOK cheering them on! Boy! Those kids surely look experienced! Fuzzy Davis's frolicking cops were: RALPH BOLSTER, PHIL KEMPF, WILLIE WILSON, BILL EMERY, KEN ORNE, DAVE MILLER, HAROLD WRIGHT, RONNIE TIER, HAROLD DOMPIER, JOE TATRO, BOB WARWICK, ARNOLD BLACK- STONE, CHARLIE ROBB, ED GOODELL, PETE ESTABROOK, JOE DYE, PETE WILDE, LEWIS YOUNG, and PAUL MILLER. These boys were the privileged characters that legally left ten minutes early and returned fifteen minutes late. The eight who were selected to voice the students 24 opinion and spend their money were: DONNY OS- BORN, KATIE JONES, KEN ORNE, ANN MAL- COLM, JO BURACZYNSKA, JOE TATRO, JOAN STILLWELL, and PAUL MILLER. They did a good job too! Proof? You don't see any money with dust on it, do you? It seems that every class has to have a few who record and tattle on every little move that anyone makes. Since MARYANN JASIENOWSKI, BEV ROBERTS, and FREDA DILLBACK are so good at probing into everyone's personal business like little Joe McCar- thys , they joined the super-special Spotlight board. Every school seems to be in need of more money, Brattleboro is no exception. If the teachers didn't get paid so much, maybe there wouldn't be a need for our annual magazine drive. The seniors who were on the board were: FREDA DILLBACK, JOAN FRENCH, CONNIE POTASH, PETE WILDE, CHARLES ROBB, MARILYN PAGE, NANCY RICE, JO-ANN KEITH, NANCY MORRILL, SUE HEBB, JOHN HOPKINS, and PAUL MILLER. The incentive that pushed us to another New England Championship was the stiff competition from Spaulding High School of Barre. The small contribution to the ski team was DON OSBORN and RONNIE TIER, but don't forget, they take the place of several others. The boys who dared venture into the cold spring air just to see who could run the fastest, jump the highest, or throw the mostest the furthest were: KEN ORNE, JOE DYE, WILLIE WILSON, PHIL KEMPF, DON OSBORN, MIKE GIALLELLA, PETE ESTA- BROOK, STUB THOMAS, ARNOLD BLACKSTONE and BILL Apples EMERY. Captain PHIL KEMPF, BUNNY KERYLOW, and JOE TATRO attempted to see who could hit a base- ball the highest and still have it land in the infield. Don't ask me which is best. As we, the class of nineteen hundred and fifty-four, close the doors of our glorious high school days behind us, we find a deep desire to be lowly freshmen once again. Since this is impossible, we leave a challenge to all under-classmen to work hard, have fun, and up- hold the standards that have been set by their pred- ecessors of B.H.S. -Paul Emanuel Miller T H E C 0 L O N E L CLASS PROPI-IECY l HE other day, we heard that GUY DAVIS, while tinkering with his car, had accidentally invented a time machine, so we decided to give it a try. We got in, and then got out into the world of the future. Sure enough, there was faithful old GUY-he'd been wait- ing all that time! The following narrative is com- posed of the notes that we took. As we are interested in seeing how the class of '54 has fared in life, we decided to look up our friends of the past. A newspaper headline jumps out at us fit is a 3D newspaperj : Rocket Reaches Moon I We start to investigate further, but because of a dirty look from the newsstand proprietor, BOB TUDOR, we first dig down for a nickel with which to buy the yellowing tabloid. We find that LEWIS YOUNG, President of the Science-Fiction Club of America, has issued an an- nouncement to the effect that We told you so! Our investment proves sound, for upon careful ex- amination we notice many other items concerning our classmates at B.H.S. One of the first is a picture of Senator ERWIN FLEWELLING welcoming a group of his agricultural constituents from Vermont. Among them we recognize CHUCK LACLAIF., KENNY FISHER, RALPH BOLSTER, and TERRY GROVER. We hope that the boys remember to wipe their feet before entering ERWIN'S office. One note which brings us joy is the news of the acquittal of JOE DYE, who was being tried for at- tempted murder. It seems that someone called him Paul once too often. Further along in the paper is an advertisement which states that a new night club is opening in our fair city, and many old friends are involved. The proprie- tor is ALBERT MIKUSKI, always a skillful rifle shot, who now handles a different kind of shot. He suffers OJ with the job of managing the torrid line of chorus girls which includes DOROTHY CRIPPS, BEULAH HOWELL, SHIRLEY GALLUP, and EVELYN BROWN. With the kind of show those girls put on, a fire extinguisher is placed at every table! The bar- tender is, of course, ED UNAITIS. We hope that he doesn't sample more than he sells! It is rumored that a well-equipped gambling room is out back, being run by that notorious pair, GRACE HECTOR and ELEANOR BULLOCK. They're big wheels, now-roulette wheels, that is. Another item of interest is a picture of a bridge un- der construction. Sure enough, the massive project was designed by TATRO 8: WILSON, Engineers De- luxe . QJOE and WILLIE seem to have done a good job, but we would just as soon not be the first to cross the river by means of their structure.J The Sports Section abounds in mention of old 1954 YEARIOOK 0 school chums. The Hrst thing that we notice is a pic- ture ofthe new professional football team that is win- ning games at the drop of a pigskin. Going under the novel name of the ALL-STARS , the group features BUNNY KERYLOW, PHIL KEMPF, and BOB WARWICK, the expert coaching is attended to by BLACKIE BLACKSTONE. In the background may be seen a bevy of beautiful female admirers, and among them we recognize BEVERLEY ROBERTS, ANN MALCOLM, NANCY MORRILL and BLANCHE NADEAU. QNO wonder the boys win all their games with that quartet cheering them onlj Another item involving members of the class of '54 is the write-up of a recent automobile race. JOAN FRENCH, driving a souped-up Austin, managed to sneak into first place. JOAN HEWITT was also a close contender, but she lost much time when she noticed the beautiful scenery and stopped to paint a picture of it. It seems that KATIE JONES has gone into show business . She is doing well as a lady midget wrestler. Also in this field are ANN HILSON and JEAN GRASSI. Long noted for their fiery tempers, they now settle their differences in the ring. But every time an eligible bachelor comes upon the scene, the fight stops. We guess that the girls would be quite willing to ex- change the fight ring for another kind! Turning the pages, we find a lengthy gossip column by MARYANN JASIENOWSKI. If she is as good at reporting it as she is at causing it, the article must be quite interesting , We see that TERRY LAWTON is still in the hos- pital. He is merely suffering from a sprained toe, but look at those nurses-MARILYN PAGE, MARCIA STONE, NANCY RICE, and BETTY DEGREE! Wow! He'll be in there for months! Also enjoying the scenery at the place of healing is PETE ESTABROOK. He took a bad spill when try- ing to ski and play his sousaphone at the same time. ADELE BAKER is also a nurse, and she never gets a complaint from her patients. That's fairly reason- able, for she's a veterinarian's assistant. A loud clamoring draws our attention from the news, and we look up to see a terrific crowd outside a movie theatre where the Great Lover himself, STEVE PLATA, is putting in a personal appearance. Several of those fighting for a glimpse of their idol and an autograph are SHERRY BARTON, EVELYN CLARK, CAROL SPECTOR, and GLORIA DOM- PIER. Fortunately, STEVE has musclemen HAROLD SNOW and BRAD SARGENT for bodyguards. HAR- OLD developed his muscles shaking sodas, while BRAD got his testing easy chairs at Chromec's. 25 Looking around, we notice that SUE HEBB has car- ried on her study of languages and is now doing very well in that field. She is an interpreter in a Chinese laundry. It's a good, clean job anyway. We next see PATTY BICKFORD, JOAN STILL- WELL, CONNIE POTASH, JOYCE AUSTIN, and FREDA DILLBACK staring out of an office window and making good use of the training they received at B.H.S. They may be seen there all day long, sharpen- ing pencils to perfection. JO-ANN KEITH is there, too, but her day is spent with the duplicator .... S.W., S.W., S.W! We then notice, much to our surprise, that GERRY RICHARDS and CYNTHIA MARTIN have opened -of all things-a library! Lined up outside are BOB COLBURN, NORMAN JOHNSON, ED KENNEY, and PHIL BACON. We never knew the boys were so interested in literature, but you can't tell a book by its cover. Just in case anyone should want to take out a book, they've employed DORIS COTA as a li- brarian. We meet PAUL MILLER, and, after he sells us a magazine subscription, we pump him for news con- cerning our old buddies. ' He tells us of the sad fate which befell MIKE GIALLELLA at the last alumni parade. MIKE had been celebrating a little too much, went through an open manhole, and hasn't been heard from since. No one went swimming in the Connecticut all summer. PAUL also informs us that WESLEY PHILLIPS and BOB AVERY are cleaning up in the world of finance. They are janitors in a local bank. One puz- zling feature of this situation is that their clothes have extremely large pockets which are invariably empty when they come to work in the morning and full when they leave at night. We hear that JO BURACZYNSKA and MARY ROONEY, somewhat power-mad after their reign as class ofiicers, ran for President and Vice-President, respectively, but were unsuccessful. The primary rea-- son for their failure was probably that no radio sta- tion would accept their advertising. None of the an- nouncers could pronounce JOZEFA'S name. QA nar- row escape for America.J The sounds of marching feet and crisp commands come to our ears, and we turn to see the local Na- tional Guard unit, led by Sergeant EDDY GOODELL, coming down the street. EDDY seems slightly power- mad, he has Privates CURT and MERT HIGLEY carrying him. His other slaves include RONNIE TIER, EDDY WHALEN, BILL TRACY, and HAROLD WRIGHT. For some reason they are accompanied by CORINTHA DOYLE, SYLVIA DAVIS, SALLY LAWRENCE, ELOISE THURBER, and LUCY LEARY. We didn't know that the Guard accepted 26 girls, but if it's all right with the boys, it's all right with us. Another odd noise grates upon us, and we find BERT BALDWIN, a pipe protruding from his mouth, pounding a piano on the sidewalk for a Salvation Army band. fHe has been having trouble getting a job, and this one has certainly been lair salvation.J Another member of the class of '54 lending his ability f?J to the group is DAVE MILLER. He now pushes his hot air through a horn, and it sounds much better that way. A fairly new establishment in our town is that of BENWARE 8z BEDARD-Booze and Beer . The boys seem to have found a way to get their refresh- ments wholesale. flt's rumored that they're trying to join Alcoholics Unanimous .J The earth trembles as STUBBY THOMAS has given up the childish habit of driving around in a jeep, and does his hotlrodding in a Sherman tank. STUBBY'S silhouette is about the same in or out of his vehicle. FRIEDA PETRIE and VIRGINIA BRISTOL are doing well in the Brattleboro branch of the I.G.A. Of course, I.G.A. stands for International Girdle Agency. Modeling for them are SUSAN COLE, SHIRLEY WOOD, and BEVERLY WEATHERHEAD. Their business is making figures lie. We hear that PETE WILDE is especially interested in pick-ups these days. We mean pick-up trucks, of course. fAt least, I think we do.J It seems that KENNY ORNE has joined the Fire Department. His car finally broke down for good, and he felt lost without something of a colorful nature to drive around in. He's really having a hot time of it now. We decide to make a brief trip to the high school before we return to 1954, when we arrive there, we are surprised to find GAIL FANNING teaching English. Well, that's just proof that truth is stranger than fiction. DON OSBORN has replaced Mr. Parry, we notice. OZZIE may not be as good a principal, but he does look better on skis. Wandering through the halls, we notice that an F.F.A. meeting is in progress, with guest speakers KEN JOHNSON, CHARLIE ROBB, BILL EMERY, and HAROLD DOMPIER. We listen for a while and de- cide that those four can certainly handle the bull, any- way. One of the last sights that we see before returning to our own time is a plaque placed in the auditorium in memory of JOAN BENDER and JOHN HOP- KINS: They both succumbed to a bad case of mortifica- tion shortly after the final assembly in June, 1954. -Joan Tuttle Bender --John Bradford Hopkinr THE COLONEL CLASS WILL IN this year of nineteen hundred and fifty-four we have gathered you, woeful, worthless, woebegone, wilted, and wasted wallflowers here to witness the last will and testament of those fabulous, faultless, faithful, and flamboyant Seniors.
