His deep and genuine concern for the needs of others is evident in many phases of school and community life. He is not only a social studies teacher but also adviser to the senior class, to the Student Council, to the magazine drive, and to the former Student Activity Society. He is a prominent member of his church choir. This constant and outstanding interest in his students of past and present has led him as far afield as Mount Snow, where he once trekked half way up the mountain in the cold to check gates for a girls' ski team race. In his quiet way he has done many other such helpful and thoughtful deeds. In appreciation of this modest man, forceful teacher, and gracious friend, we the Class of 1962 gratefully dedicate our Colonel to CARL MILLER. 3 98,6 gf Y M ' 1 E L 'WM I in dk saw Gd' 'X v .mn J I X .X vvllff-5' g,,,g1'A 5 .Ar -nf K1 as ,r t X : Ay 5 P 4 ' 5 1 I!!! .-Q Wi KF li .L- Qu i in Q' Y' vi'- 1 lil 1 nu an '9 1-an Q1 vw 3' X was X Qi JYNF so all SW SCHOOL PERSONNEL ADMINISTRATION Principal Theron Stinchfield Assistant Principals George Laing and Evrett Dimick.

For the Class of 1962, this yearhook will serve as a reminder of the high school years just ending. ln an attempt to make the hook more than just a re- eord of our class's activities, we have tried to illus- tratc the tremendous growth which occurs hetween thc seventh and twelfth grades, Most of us entered this school in the fall of 1956 when we were about twelve years old. We are now seventeen and eighteen, In this period we have ex- perienced the most crucial years of adolescence We have changed. The change seems impereeptihle until we look at a photograph of one oi' our junior high parties or an old yearbook picture. We laugh and say, Look how little and young we were. Nevertheless, we seemed neither little nor young then. Hava-n't we all noticed that each year the seventh graders shrink dangerously? Those were the days when we were filled with houndless enthusiasm and a genuine excitement for the new things happening to us. We were that kind of high-spirited newcomers to BUHS which junior high teachers are accustomed to see. Maybe that i nhy junior high teachers sometimes think tha! senior high students hecome hard and thankless by comparison. But we have become neither ha-rd non thankless-merely a little more sophisticated. These formative years have also seen us gain sense of values and acquire the ability to assum responsibility. There is no comparison between th rhaoliv atmosphere of our first class meeting an the quiet maturity we have shown in our senior year ,ind who can forget the difference between ou junior high dances and our junior Prom. The Pro is an especially appropriate illustration of how we've learned to work together as a class, We have grown socially too. ln this past year there has been very little evidence of the cliques of previous YBBIB. i In other words. during the course of high schooli we have developed from children into young adults.

PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS Good evening and welcome to you, our parents, our teachers, and our friends. Welcome also to you who come here this evening, not because of a pecial graduate who is sitting behind me, but ecause vou love this school. have worked for its ompletion, and are helping to pay for it. N 1962 is the third year in the decade that has been labeled the fabulous--the roaring--the swinging Six- ties. Yet, when our graduating class entered this school, we did not expect that before we graduated zhere would be men who had traveled in outer space. Ten years ago this month, when the first class was graduated from the building which is now ,he oldest of the beautifully efficient buildings, here were only a comparatively few scientists who gave thought to the possibility that there might be :olonies established on our neighboring planets. In zhe intervening years while we have been in these buildings a new vocabulary has grown up with terms ike fallout , safe limits of radiation , space station , and capsulc . New theories in the fields uf science and language have been tried. f New testing evices and new educational methods have been eveloped.J Right here in our school through your enerosity, through the vision of the school board md the administration, there have been and are being made adjustments to the demands of the modern world, There has been made available to is the finest equipment in the areas of both wcience and language. With the addition of more eachers to the staff, the teaching load of some of mr instructors has been reduced so th-at they might :ive each of us more attention. Granted, there is still more progress to bc made, but we are fortunate to have seen the beginning of learning conditions appropriate to the needs of today and tomorrow. Even the face of our town has changcdg our young- est brothers and sisters will not remember Brattleboro without a thruway, a market area at the end of Fairground Road or the new buildings in the center ol' town. What does all of this mean to you and to us? Are WE changed? Physically the members of this class are much the same as those of any other class, but mentally l believe we are more aware of the chal- lcnge that exists. As individuals we have been tracing a path--with some dctoursf-that has led us around mountains of experience and over much uncharted terrain of learning. We have now reached a noint where you, who until now have always been close at hand. can no longer help us make our turns and formulate our decisions. I-Ienceforth we shall continue over our paths using what you have given us as our keys, It will soon be our turn to back the changes that may still be needed in our community, our state, our nation, and quite possibly, our world. Your part in this graduation of 1962 is of a value that wc can not now estimate. We extend to you our sincere thanks and welcome to these commence- ment exercises.

FRESHMAN HISTORY .W'hilc we, as scared, shy, and shaky freshman. awaited the opening assembly of 1958, which was to begin the first of our four years at B. U. H. S., we could not help but wonder what our next four years would be like. With all those sophisticated seniors, would life as lowly underelassmen turn out lo be all work and no play? On that first day, it became obvious that we needed leaders and an advisor to help us in im- portant class matters. Amid the din and clatter of our first class meeting, we managed to nominate fellow students capable of the offices, and later, in homerooms, we elected Barry Mansfield, pres- identg Pam Cheney, vice-president: Karen Cun- dersen, secrctaryg Sheila Shea, treasurerg and Mr. Scott, class advisor. Because Student Council mem- bers had not been selected the year he-fore, ballots were again cast, and those chosen were Sally Ander- son, Peggy Barry and Jon Riley. Meanwhile, Coach Tenny and Coach Kenison had chased up seventeen enthusiastic freshman boys, whose impersonations of the varsity football squad gave bashful Kathy Nunan, Jaye Pyle, and Peggy Barry something to cheer about. The half time at the varsity games found Lanny Harrington, Karen Gundersen, Mary Ann Hooper, Dave Neumeister, Helen Thurber, Barb Bradford, and Jane Boydcn preforming as freshman member of the hand. Ann Paradis and Sally Anderson triee twirling batons in time to the music. Following the peak of the football season came th' memorable day of November 14, 1958, and at thi bidding of the mighty seniors who wished to initiat' us into the senior high, we came dressed in a varietj of weird outfits. The girls wore curlers underneatl nylon-stocking caps filled with newspaper, spoo Les girls BARB MILLER and BOB PA GE... mmmmwah! earrings for accessories, and unmated shoes added to long johns and cotton pillow case shirts. .lust as elegantly dressed were the boys in backward blouses and upside-down skirts tied with sashes. Before s hool started that morning, many unlucky fresh were forced to climb the length of the front stairs thy various over eager seniorsl. In between classes, the seniors stopping us in the halls and made us sing a tribute to them, push a penny with our noses the length of the corridors, or perform any other ghastly stunt they could think of. In the afternoon we trooped to the court room Qcommonly known as the auditoriumj, where the seniors put a few un- lucky members of our class and the new teachers- Mr. Witt, Mrs. Gail, and Mr. Sprague-on trial. We sang songs, fed our classmates with spoonfuls of water, ate two feet of string to reach a marshmallow placed in the middle, and generally made fools of ourselves. That evening the seniors gave the lucky survivors a dance, the Freshmen Blowout. ,lust before thc dance the big shots presented hilarious entertain- ment. Although we had had laughs preforming the stiff punishment during the day, we really howled at the antics of the senior boys, who, dressed in stuffed girls gym suits and ski boots, did a ballet dance, David Dunklce sang a solo, Everybody Loves a Lover, and Dave Chase did take-offs on the teachers and students. In addition, a student or- chestra named The White Bucks agreed to per- form and another student combo, Billy and the Boosters, accepted the request for entertainment. After the dance was over, we were proud to discover that we had easily cleard expenses and that a small sum had landed in our treasury, a fact con- sidered unusual for freshman classes. In the spring, when a boy's fancy should have turned to love, our fellows turned their thoughts to tennis and track. Since Douglas Sherwin was the only boy out for freshman tennis, he had to practice on the girls' side of the tennis courts, not that he really minded. Wending their way over the cinders came Bob Asbury, Jon Riley, Bob Gregg, Dennis Pollard, and Bob Page as frosh track stars. Because all the trying times and experiences of our first year had opened our eyes, we no longer considered ourselves shy, shaky or scared. Some of these experiences will never be shared by under- classmen. We were the last to have the fun of initia- tion and also the last ninth grade to stay in the old building of the high school. These and other fond memories, we knew, would linger on through the summer and on even after entering the next fall as sophomores at B.l'.H.S.

This epoch, mmonly called the Sophomore Era, is especially ated for its revolution for independence from the Qctatorial rule of upperclassmen. The following aders were chosen to head the rebellion: Com- ander-in-chief, Jerry Allen: aide-de-camp, Iva Win- lesterg Secretary of State, Pam Williams, Treasurer Large, Alice Pyle, Worthy Councilors of War, eggy Barry, ,lon Riley, and Pam Williams, and ldvisor of Tactics, Mr. Scot. This rebellion, called he Ten Months War, was divided into three smaller gonflicts-The Fall War, The Winter War, and the War of the Sophomore Succession. The Fall War was fought on three fronts by three lifferent armies, one of these being the football cam. The brave lads who saw action in this branch bf the service were Jerry Allen, Wayne Thomas, .lim ifisher, Bob Asbury, Alan Orvis, Tom Frizzell, Barry tlansfield, Dick Esden, and Butch Cersosimo. En- isting the support of the civilians wcrc Peggy Barry, Kathy Nunan, and Jay Pyle, class cheerleaders. On ,he second front was the tennis team, a group well versed in thc use of guided missiles. Those cnlistcd SALLY ANDERSON No, you're doing it all wrong. in this branch were Dave Ncumeister and Doug Sherwin. And on the third front using guerrilla tac- tics were thc fighting B.U.H.S. Harriers, our valiant cross country team consisting of Daryl Farr, Dennis Pollard, and Jack Chapman. Having made a brilliant record in the first stages of the revolution, the class was not content to rest on its laurels, so soon the Winter War began. Wayne Thomas, Bernie Dix, Dennis Pollard, Alan Orvis, and Tom McCormick of the basketball squad, an organ- ization famous for its complex military tactics and ROYCE BUEHITER specimens for study. say, what fine accurate bombing, were assisted on the northern front by our rough-and-ready ski team. The versatile members of this battalion, including Dave Neumeister, Daryl Farr, Jerry Allen, Mae Jones, and Dave Clark, could be counted on to operate from both the air and the ground. The women's branch of this group consisted of Mary Ann Hooper, Jane Miniszek, and Phyllis Edson. BOB PAGE .... Comrades, I bring you food, During the wars, those not in uniform continued to contribute to the cause. Some of the more intel- lectual souls???, Bob Asbury, Dave Neumeister, Mary Ann Hooper, and Jane Miniszck, even organ- ized a Latin Club to study the war annals of Caesar so that they might better advise our soldiers. Of course, someone had to honor our military heroes, so many clubs such as F. F. A. fFree the Fugitives of America J, F.T.A. lFounding of Tanks Anony- IDOUBJ, G.A.A, fGirls' Army Arsenall and F.H.A. fFriends of Hitler's Adversariesj held dances and meetings during the few lulls of peace for just such purposes. With the mud and rain of April came the third and final War-the War of the Sophomore Succes- sion. Seen again in action on the courts were our guided missile experts, now aided by Jane Miniszek, Pam Williams, Jane Boyden, Mary Ann Hooper, Phyllis Edson, and Peggy Barry, members of the girls' tennis team, the women's branch of the Guided Missile Corps. Counter Intelligence was successful through the daring of Dennis Pollard and Bob Asbury who carried army secrets over hurdles-or anything else that got in their way. On the baseball diamond were still other types of missile experts, but these boys preferred to play it safe. Throughout the many skirmishes and frequent pitched battles all citizens and servicemen wore protective helmets, and blue passes were issued for the Basement Fallout Shelters only in times of emergency. Chief executives Stinchficld and Laing supervised foreign and domestic policy in times of crisis, In addition, to alleviate traffic jams during ALAN BENJAMIN. . .flisflpgwfsz 1 1 l fi l f DIA!!

Although it was not easy, the class of '62 finally gained its independence.

DOUG SHERWIN and PHYLLIS EDSON JUNIOR HISTORY After a lull known as Summer, the class of 1962 emerged on September T, 1060, with a new name- The Juniors. This glorious title, however, brought with it many difficult challenges-Jungle Plant Jacobs, Ferry Boy...uh lionunander Shipp, and Miss, well, Booth to name a few. Nevertheless, we met these manifold challenges with courage, skill, and four brave officers: Bob Asbury, chief poten- tateg Bob Gregg, vice potcntateg Pam Williams. honorable scribeg and Tom Frizzell, Scrooge. The aforementioned were elected according to thc new system of petitioning and speech-making. While we were embroiled in our own campaigning. Nixon and Kennedy fought on the national level-- causing heated discussions throughout the class- rooms between the local supporters of these two presidential candidates. NANCY 0'NEAL stuff if fn, Kath. Between life and the toilet zone Other facets of the 1960 fall scene were football, cross-country, and girls' tennis. Eleven junior boys labored under the whips of football coaches Andy Natowich and Rollic Emery, and one junior, Malcolm Jones, conducted foliage tours for cross-country coaeh, Walter Reuling. Biology teacher Preston White coached the six junior girl racqueteers into u very good season. The end of fall sports brought everyone inside for the annual magazine drive, Junior elnbezzlers who helped tabulate the 313,700 brought in were Jerry Allen, Edie Nurse, Mary Ann Hooper, and Butch Cersosimo. fThere is still some suspicion concerning their activities behind the closed doors of room 210.1 Nevertheless, their classmates remained above re- ps--hash by selling more subs than any other class. M Cleaver, Mr. Witt's junior homeroom won the co- veted trip to Boston, and Marilyn Sprague was the school's highest salesman. As a final touch, senior pres- ident Bill Bedard had to push junior president Bob Asbury around the gym in a wheelbarrow during the half-time of the alumni basketball game, as a result of the juniors' monetary victory. On December 8 thoughts turned from money to drama and the school play, The Little Dog Laughed. Playing the lead as Laurie Huntington was our own Nancy Freyenhagen, and juniors sup- porting her were Butch Cersosimo, Royce Buehler, Anne Paradis, Kathy Nunan, and Doug Bieniek. In the field of communication arts of the 60-61 school year, the class of 1962 finally rose from the ranks to occupy high stations. Pam Williams became assistant editor of the school tabloid, Spotlight, and several juniors secured positions on the Colonel staff. Working in the shade of the fern with Miss ,laeohs were Dial staff members, Diane Amato and Ralph Kotkov. Next door, Mrs. Ingram chaperoned twenty-two juniors during the afternoon parties of Harmony High, where there was some harmony, a little high. Dial B for Boys M ick's harem Throughout the year, our school government, the Student Council, held frequent fifth period sessions in the Yellow Room, 226, with Regent Miller guid- ing those members who were under age. Junior incumbents included Jerry Allen, Pam Williams, and Jon Riley, and the newly-elected included Butch Cersosimo, Karen Gundersen, and Dave Neumeister, vice-president, Many meetings were top- secret, highly confidential, and utterly classified, as anyone who chanced in on them discovered by the immediate silence and the cold stares. Our class was also well-represented in the many school clubs. Being upperclassmen, we were elected to many offices. PAM CHENEY and JACK CHAPMAN .... Baby, it's cold outside. ' ,--1, ,T M X 5. .

Meanwhile, the Vermont winter brought with it those traditional sports, skiing and basketball. Our classmates on the boys' ski team who straddled slalom gates, flew through the air, and puffed through the woods were Dave Ncumeister, jerry Allen, Daryl Farr, and Dave Glabaek, Those who followed close behind with emergency tohoggans and brandy were ,lane Miniszek, Mary Ann Hooper, Phyllis Edson, Pam Williams, and Dianne Estabrook. lnside, where it was safer and warmer, Dennis Pollard, Alan Orvis, Bernie Dix, Bob Gregg, and Leslie Jenkins pounded up and down the length of the gym chasing that big brown ball. In the spring the boys exchanged the big brown ball for the little white one. Juniors ripping the hide for Coach Natowich were Bernie Dix, Alan Orvis, Harvey Sugar, and Tom Frizzell. These boys hit their way to the title of State Champs. Out on the track, Mr. Kenison trained his bipeds Bob Gregg, Wayne Thomas, jerry Allen, Daryl Farr, Dennis Pollard, and Bob Page, while Coach Sprague super- vised Doug Bieniek, Doug Sherwin, and Dave Neumeister on the new asphalt tennis courts, Turning to the academic side of high school, we saw Jerry Allen, Royce Buehler, Bob Asbury, ,lane Miniszek, Pam Williams, Mary Ann Hooper, Kathy Nunan, and Sandra Filgate receive their Silver B's. We also chose nine boys and four girls to represent our school at Boys' and Girls' State. ln addition, the seniors elected Bob Asbury and Jerry Allen as their class marshals-a distinguished honor.

Hang down your head. With all our feats and accomplishments, we had yet to show our true mcttle. The full glory and superiority of the class of '62 was only revealed on the memorable evening of the Junior Prom, when that mundane edifice, the gym, underwent the metamorphosis which transformed it into the ancient town of Camelot. The task of turning back the pages of history to those legendary times of King Arthur and his knights fell to Karen Gundersen, chairman of the decoration committee. She and hcr committee members worked for months in advance to create a castle courtyard complete with authentic details. On the starlit night fuse your imagination, of May 26, gowncd girls and their dates entered this courtyard over a drawhridge, at the end of which stood two pages who announced the entrance of milady and hcr knight with a trumpet fanfare. On either side of thc gym stretched royal hanquet tables and hchind them loomed the gray custle walls, covered with bright shields, ln their own special nook, The Silhouettes, our modern day minstrels, played under Farewell to Karen a multi-colored canopy, and at the far end ol' the eourtyard the castle walls gave way to a lllZlgllll'll'0Ili view of Old English countryside, created hy a giant mural extending from one side of the gym to the other. The middle of the courtyard served as jousting grounds for two bigger-than-life steeds and their gallant knights who charged each other. resplendent in full armor. After intermission the moment came for the erowning of the Faircst in the Land. Amid happy applause, Queen Pamela Willizuns :md King Tom Frizzell ascended the throne in all regal splendor. DIANE AMA T0 .... Good-by, cruel world Later, when the last streamer had been pulled down, we realized that we had witnessed an historic occasion on this evening of evenings. Not only had we earned 353900, but we'd also produced the most heauliful prom the school had ever seen. Having proved that we could work well and vI'l'iciently together, we relinquished the title The juniors and took a well-earned rest., prepared heyond doubt, for the sacred burden which the name The Seniors would soon place upon us.

I crm't hearg I've got a football stuck in my megaphone SENIOR HISTORY September 6, 1961, found the Class of 1962 gathering for its final year at B.l'.H.S. Realizing that this was to be our most important high school year, we elected four capable officers to lead the class. Dave Neumeister twho was elected partly through the moving sincerity of his campaign epeechj presided, with Butch Cersosinio as his as- sistant. Diane Amato kept the minutes and Tom Frizzell handled the money. During the first few weeks we constantly had to remind ourselves that we were finally honest-to- goodness seniors, It seemed incredible that we'd become the he-men and sopllisticates which we'd looked up to in awe only a few years before. This effect wore off soon enough, however, and we set- tled down to the normal senior liriresponsibilities. ,Ierry Allen was chosen to lead the Student Council and Pam Williams to keep records. Other senior members were Mary Ann Hooper, Sally Anderson, Dave Neuuleister, Butch Cersosinio, Jon Riley, and Bob Asbury. Not to be forgotten is the fine school spirit shown by another Student Council member, Karen Gundersen, who left our class early in the senior year. Advisor to both the Student Council and the senior class was Mr. Miller, fondly known to many as Uncle Carl. The whole school felt sad to learn that this was to be his last year. His many years of outstanding service to B.U.H.S. will long be BUTCH CERSOSIMO and BARB GREENWOOD remembered by all who knew him. This year's football season marked the last com- 1 petitive football for many of our classmates. Eleven y senior boys besides captains Butch Cersosimo and jerry Allen put their all in the games where the weather ranged from the intense heat of the game at Bellows Falls to the wet, bitterly cold game at Rice Memorial in Burlington. Unfortunately, the boys just missed winning the annual Keene game, but with far more than their share of mishaps N and injuries, they put up a terrifie fight. The boys finished the season with five wins and two losses. Cheering the team on were the cheerleaders- Merit Scholarship Finalists NOR.f'l'l:iN IANDMJYV.

In the fall the annual magazine drive had an almost successful year, Jerry Allen, Butch Cer- sosimo, Edith Nurse, and Mary Ann Hooper directed the drive Qwhich was S100 beneath its quota of 312,500.3 The senior class was the only class in the school to reach its class quota. An interesting sidelight of the drive was the race between the junior and senior classes to see which class could bring in more sales, The president and secretary of the losing class had to dance the twist during the half-time of a basketball game. We think the junior couple made marvelous twisters. About this time a new fad hit the school and the class of 1962 was not to be left out. Everywhere, the mature seniors played with yo-yos. Champ- ion of all champions was Joel Cohen. Although this was only a passing fancy, it will be remembered as part of the fun of being seniors. JOEL COHEN. . . This couldn't have been a Duncan. H The rise and fall of Emily Post. Basketball and skiing kept many seniors occupied during the winter months. Both teams did well in the competition with the surrounding schools. Many seniors participated in the annual Christmas program. Band and choir members presented several numbers. Later, the students joined in singing old Christmas favorites. It was rather sad for the seniors who realized that this was our last Christmas as- sembly. December 2nd and January 13th were unforget- table days for college bound seniors. Heard through- out the cafeteria as students slaved over College Boards were horrified groans and grinding brains. These exams were important steps toward the future for many seniors who were already busy with college applications. Meanwhile, the B.U.H.S. news was presented to the public each week by the Spotlight staff and Pam Williams, editor-in-chief, This year's column in the Reformer was brightened with new features such as Saying of the Week and well-thought-out ed- itorials. On the air, Harmony Higher's Doug Bieniek, Phil Brown, Daryl Farr and Edith Nurse supervised the presentation of our bi-weekly radio program. A new time was set at 8:05 so skiers could listen before catching the bus to Hogback, Constantly fighting to meet deadlines were the many members of the yearbook staff under the cilitorship of Mary Ann Hooper, assisted by Kathy Numan and Jane Miniszek. We feel that they have been highly successful in their efforts to present a yearbook that will help keep the memories of our high school years. Two members of the class received special honors during the year. Pam Williallis and Jerry Allen were recipients ofthe D.A.R. good citizenship award. Both will r present our school in the state competition. This 1' vard is indicative of high scholastic achieve- ment., good citizenship, and all-round personality. Congratulations to them for achieving this high honor. On the evening of February 3rd, we gathered for our floss lranquct and dance. It was then we realized I Lefs get cozy were DOUG BIENIEK ....

He also admitted that he is anxiously awaiting the signing of the Flying Femme-Fatalcs. This luscious group included Diane Amato, Kathy Nunan., Peg Barry, Pam Cheney and Linda Dagenais. At that point Butch lapsed into silence, having been drowned out by the noise of the overly rapid descent into the atmosphere of the planet Mars. As we landed at the space port and looked out the window, we were amazed at the number of our old classmates waiting there. First at the gate were Fran Delewski and ,loc Bedard with their ten children. Directly behind this crew were Barb Stebbins, Nan Freyenhagen, and Lynn Doubleday, as usual happily astride thc JANE MINISZEK JOE MARCH mounts which they could not bear to leave behind. As people began to hoard the plane we spotted Mary Ann Hooper, editor of the uD'aily Martian, and asked her to sit down. As editor of Mars, largest daily newspaper, she was sure to have the latest scoop. She seemed excited as she sat down and we asked her to tell us the news. It seemed that Bob Asbury, hcr star reporter, had recently returned from the inauguration of the new president and had met some of his old friends now in political positions, Tom BOB GREGG and PEGGY BARRY NANCY 0'NEAL M.-IRY ANN HOOPER McCormick, President, had selected his cabinetg DIANNE ESTABROOK Secretary of Agriculture, Larry Slicerg Secretary of Defense, Pat Vesicog Secretary of Interior, Delmar Covey, Secretary of State, Alan Benjamin, Secretary of Health Education and Welfare, Harvey Sugar, Attorney General, Wayne Thomas, and Post- master General, Bob Page. Bob Asbury also reported that the UAW, headed by Bill Putnam, was on stike. Doing tie picketing under rabble-rouser Vinny Johnson, were Morris Bailey, Chuck Frost, Bob Fuller, Norman Smith, Dennis Wilder, Don Harris. Don Carleton and Steve Wood. Mary Ann also told us about the newly initiated ANNE PARADIS BARB SFBBBINS contests-Miss Universe and Mr. Universe-which her paper was covering. Hopefuls in these contests to end all contests were Mary Lou Amato, Sally Anderson, Joanne Howell, Betty Ann Loomis, ,lane Miniszek, Carol Wilsey, Pam Williams, Doug Bieniek, Jack Chapman, Bernie Dix, Bob Gregg, Dick Paige and Dennis Underwood. LINDA DUNKLEE Just then Larry Slicer sat down in the seat in front of us. Mary Ann, always an eager newshound, asked him what was new in the Department of Agriculture. Larry informed her that under his direction a crew of seven men, Roland Barrows, Rex Bartlett, Dave Clark, john Emery, Bob Martel, Gordon Wisell and David Worden, had set up a cooperative farm on a nearby astroid. He finished NANCY FREYENHAGEN PAT VESCIO telling us about it and we looked up just in time to see the old clan parade in. There they were: Bruce, Ernie, Sandi, Stan, Susan, Wayne, and all the little Thomases. By that time we were arriving at Idlewild Space- port, World, where Ralph Kotkov and his band and chorus were waiting to welcome us. As the space ship landed, Ralph began leading his group in the BUTCH CERSOSIMO BOYDEN w fvmzsmv BOB PAGE l BRUCE THOMAS School Song. That old familiar song was being sung and played by Jane Boyden, Barb Bradford, Barb Miller, Edie Nurse, Nancy Starkey, Dave Merrit, Helen Thurber, Pat Tier, Anne Paradis and Kathy Childs. Everyone on board was beginning to get a little sentimental when all of a sudden Ralph's group burst into his famous rendition of Can-Can, and ten lovely dancers literally kicked their way out of a nearby hangar as they lined up for that well- known dance. The precision dancing Spacettes in- cluded Carole Dascomb, Phyllis Edson, Barb Collins Judy Connors, Eileen Gold, Priscilla Hamilton, Kathleen Smith, Carolyn White, Nancy O'Neal, J aye Pyle and Gloria Condosta, No sooner had the Spacettes finished their dance when the 4-M quartet began on its barbershop routine. Doug March, Todd McCarthy, Stephen Morse and Dave Merritt sang Down by the Old Mill Stream until tears of laughter were rolling down our cheeks. wi six' mg. ss, es Academy Sdtool Kllld0fgIlfl1'll+FlfSl row: Murcia' Angell, Tyler Hart, David Zimmerman., Judy Covey, Rupert W7-bstvr Second rows Peter Wallace, Mary Ann Hooper, Linda Dunklee, Bob Ilunklee, Bob Gregg, Marilyn, Sprague, Nancy F reyenhagen, Brenda Bigelow, Brownie Roberts, Ernie Thomas Third row: Rachael Haskins, Christine Prvevy, Miss Waters, Dirk Esden, Russell Struthers, Bruce Thomas. After this entertainment and welcome, we passen- gers were escorted to waiting taxicopters which flew us to our hotel. Revving up the motors of the whirly birds were Leslie Berg, David Bevis, Guy Dunklee, Paul Fisher, Les jenkins, Daryl Farr, Doug Wall and ,lim Miller. As these taxi flyers gave us a leisurely ride to Hotel Latchis, we got a wonderful view of Brattleboro, now an thriving metropolis of 5,000,050. When we were young S I W,,- , .xx . ' .. y Aft W . o DIANNE ESTABROOK As we swooped over the city I was particularly interested in reading the names on the theatre mar- quis. Sonic. of the more familiar ones were The Lion Tamers, starring Doug Sherwin and Margaret Trafton and featuring Marilyn Thayer, Roy Smith, Gene and Jon Riley, Jane Crosman and John Donnag The Night They Banned the Twist with Royce Buehler, Donna Belville, David Wlieelock, Lynn Grussing, Betty Dusavitch, and Jimmy Henryg and of course, Survival of the F ittest with that great Jerry Park Allen directing a fine group including Janice Kemp. ,lim Fisher, Elaine Spicer, Sandy Whitmore, Tom Frizzell and Bob Burkewitz. Once at the Hotel we were met by manager Bobby Grover, and a crew of hellhoys especially hired for the occasion. Strangely enough they were all our old classmates: Clarence Walker, Ernie West, Ricky Brooks, Les Foshurg, Don Bristol, Frank Majdak, and Roger Plante. Weary as we were, we decided to have a midnight party in the Lounge. We all did the now out-dated Twist for several hours and were just beginning to slow down when we heard much shouting near the door. There were several of the world's greatest orators, Alan Orvis, Judy Quinn, Sheila Shea, Bob Gorham, Carol Ingalls, Rachael Haskins, and Bill Field giving opposing speeches on Universal situations and crises. Since it was morning we went down to the break- fast room where a large crowd was gathering. There, BETTY ANN LOOMIS WAYNE THOMAS, BRUCE THOMAS, and LINDA DUNKLEE MARILYN SPRAGUE looking resplendent in their costumes of foreign lands, were some of our own classmates: Carol Powers, Ann Merrill, Nancy Starkey, Marie Hamhlin, Christine Joslin, Sandy Filgate, and Theresa Glover who had agreed to act as waitresses for this occasion. After the Alumni Parade that afternoon we were all welcomed to a meeting at the ultra-modern B.U.H.S. by a few members of the teaching staff. MARY ANN HOOPER, BRUCE THOMAS, and HELEN THURBER ANNE PARADIS, MARY LEE WOOD, JERRY ALLEN and BOB BURKEWITZ Academy Suhool fifth grade's production Gossip Grows Marion Aither, Howard Osgood, Loretta Petrie, Linda Kall, Ron Taylor, Pat White, Russ Struthers, Marilyn Sprague, and Doug Prouty were on hand to tell us about some of the new teaching methods. Several hours later the meeting was over and it was time to depart, each to his own planet, until another year. Those of us who were leaving Earth were taken to Spaceport, and after passing through customs, boarded the spaceship. As we were about to take off we heard a resounding clash of symbols and then a blast of Auld Lang Sync from the Men's DOUG PROUTY The T 9 I i DONNA FULLER TODD MCCARTHY and JERRY ALLEN and Won1en's Earth Reserve Band. Dressed in Army tan were our old friends, Edith Akely, Jane Cross- man, Dennis Pollard, Norm Sargent, Frances Dunklee, and Judy Lee. The last strains had just faded away when all of a sudden we noticed a great, horrible green thing hearing down upon us which looked like some kind of a giant weed. Evidently the pilot saw it too, for with a great blast we shot upward into the sky. Looking hack down on the receding Earth, we realized with great horror what the monster was. Vliss Jacobs' jungle plant had finally escaped. Edith Nurse Norman Landman Stooges N R 4, 1 'L mi BJ' .A 'l W ,. , Y , y . I if . Mfgff.. f- 'I ,1 ,Q 5 , 51 A ,gf 3 ' -,-1:,,,,...

The building itself is divided into three distinct sections. The .one-story wing nearest the old building contains two separate gyms for boys and girls and two sound-proof music rooms lone for the choir and music classes, thc other for the band and instrumental lessonsl. Nearby are the three small practice rooms used in connection with the music department, health course classrooms, and the nurse's office. The next and largest section contains all the classrooms for the three grades, in addition to the home economics rooms, the library, and the main office. The last wing houses on the first floor the cafeteria, the auto mechanics and industrial arts rooms, and on the second floor the science and art rooms. The library in this building is geared specifically for junior high age students, and to help fellow classmates there are a number of library assistants who make it easier to use the facilities. One group, consisting primarily of freshmen, help at the library desk during their free periods. In addition, each homeroom and each study hall has a student librarian, The study hall librarians see that there are enough reference books to suit the students' study needs. At various times during the year, the library assistants meet to plan projects and programs which are connected with literature and reading. On De- cember 15 they held an open house of the library for the entire school, and in April tlley arranged an impressive book display. The junior high is DAVID HARVEY, CHRIS POLLICA, BERNARD ALDRICH, STEVE MORSE, and JEFFREY WALDRON . . . ,lunir High Bookworms? Students sctlting up a window display GARY GAGNE, PAT JOHNSON, BOB HOWE, and CAROL NEWCOMB very fortunate in having an active, modern library of its own, The junior high athletic program is divided so that the seventh and eight graders participate sepa- rately from the ninth graders. The first two grades are limited to homeroom intramural tournaments in football and basketball. The freshmen, however, have an extensive program of both intramural and interscholastic athletics. Homcrooms compete against each other in football and basketballg this year there was a Freshman Intramural Basketball League. The top freshman players in both footbll and basket- ball play against other schools in Vermont and Massachusetts. Those freshmen who qualify may become members of the varsity teams in football, basketball, baseball, track, skiing, tennis, and cross country. The seventh and eighth grades have a cheerleading quad, and the ninth grade has a selected group of irls who cheer at freshman sports events, A fall, winter, and spring dance for the junior high re put on every year, This year's Halloween or all dance, was particularly unique. Master-minded the junior high Student Council, the dance was beatnik coffee party where students transformed intellectual pursuits with beards, berets, and cigarette holders members of the beat generation. Gym mats recluded the need for chairs, and authentic trash- ans decorated the corners. Abstract art displayed n the walls provided any necessary diversion. At ntermission, the Freshman Dramatics Club provided he entertainment. Sharon Lea, wrapped from head o foot in bandages, pantomimed the record Mum- y , and members of the club presented their riginal skit Alice in Beatniklandv . The junior high Student Council takes charge of ot only the three dances but also matters con- erning the daily needs and desires of the students. ach homeroom has a regular council member and n alternate. In addition, the heads of all junior igh organizations automatically become members f the council, Meeting every other week, the tudent Council screens freshman boys seeking atrol posts, puts out a leaflet for the benefit of ew students, and suggests possible projects and chool improvements. The junior high Student ouncil suggested the Ruth Atkinson Memorial, n memory of the late science teacher. An annual ward for excellence in junior high science is warded and the name of the recipient inscribed n a plaque in the junior high. The Junior High Cheerleaders .lL'l ' for the pause that refreshes The separation of the junior and senior high buildings has given the junior high a chance to develop on its own. For the first time, the younger BUHS students have been assuming more responsi- bility and taking the initiative in school affairs. As a result, these students enter senior high with a better sense of duty and a more mature outlook.

STUDENT COUNCIL Each year students in grades seven through twelve are elected to represent their classmates on the junior and senior high Student Council. They work out the problems of student government, help ad- minstrators to improve school conditions and settle matters dealing with the needs and desires of the student body. The senior high council approves school club budgets, presents iackets for both sports and citizen- ship, awards the Balfour citizenship medals, screens the tryouts for cheerleaders and majorettes, runs the assembly program, and sponsors the mid-winter Sno- Ball. During the school year the junior high Student Council is responsible for the Memorial Day Pro- gram, which is required hy state law, and also sponsors several dances for seventh, eighth and ninth graders. Although the Student Council operates quietly and some students do not even notice it, the council is the backbone of our school life. JR. HIGH STUDENT COUNCIL First Row: J. Ludorf, S. Williams, C.

MAGAZINE DRIVE The fifteenth annual magazine drive for our school began with a kick-off assembly on November 20. Sponsored by the Curtis Publishing Company, the profits of this event enable the students to enjoy many extra-curricular activities which are not self- supporting. Our goal of 312,500 was missed this year by about 51005 however, the drive was still very profitable for the school. In the spring, room Ill, the top sellers of the magazine subscriptions, members of the magazine drive staff, and the highest salesman from both the junior high and the senior high school traveled to Boston for a free day of entertainment as a reward for their efforts in salesmanship.

On December 13, the cluh participated in a Christmas fiesta with dancing, games, and I'Cl.l'l'Sll- ments. In the spring the group introduced the first year students to the club with an entertainment. Members of the third and fourth year classes went to Oak Grove School to present a Spanish program to youngsters studying South America.

LATIN CLUB Latin Club, open to all second year Latin students, is a club formed to increase the study, knowledge, and interest of Latin and to promote social contact of the members. At the club's monthly meetings, movies and slides are shown, skits are presented. and talks are given by guest speakerl. Each year the Latin banquet is held in Roman style with those attending dressed in togas. The slaves, first year students who have achieved high grades, serve the three-course meal which is tradi- tionally eaten with the fingers, The slaves also provide the entertainment. After the festivities the slaves, having been unanimously elected to the clean-up committee, finish up their duties. Their only pay for the night is dirty feet, tired bodies, and the left-overs from the banquet, but all will later admit what a wonderful time they had. At the end of the year the club holds a meeting to acquaint first year Latin students with its purpose and activities. The club is a treat for all those who tudy to learn Latin, one of the greatest basic languages. 96 First Row: K. Mahoney, M. Theis, L. B:-ehm, B. Hamilton, P. Cheney, R. Page, S. Thomas, F.

SAVINGS STAMPS Established eight years ago, the United States Savings Stamps Program helps students and teachers to save systematically. Three students in each library are in charge of distributing stamps to the homeroom lieutenants who are elected by the students in their homcrooms. The lieutenants in turn sell the stamps to homeroom members. Each week a banner is awarded to the homeroom having the largest per cent of students buying stamps. This banner helps to boost stamp sales. Students are also proud to be helping our national government while saving money. Helping our national government First Row: R. Page, P. Wellman, M. Zelbow, P.

DEBATE CLUB This club is composed of debate students who wish to further their debating and be in inter- scholastic competition. The group has two debate teams-a four-man varsity team and a novi ie team. The boys on each team are divided into affirmative and negative view points. Our debate team belongs to the Debate League of Vermont. As a member it attends a debate work- shop and has competitions with other schools scheduled. This year tournaments were held in Montpelier and Hanover. Each of these debates is four rounds- each round la.ts about an hour. We could all admit that this is quite a schedule. State finals for debate competition were held in Montpelier this year. The national topic for high school and college questioning was the resolution that: The Federal Government should equalize educational opportunities by means of grants to the states for public elementary and secondary educa- tion. After hours of study in preparation for these debates. our debate team has represented us well in competition, 98 First Row: F. Class, K. Nunan, L. Doubleday, N. Fx-eyenhagen, J. March, R. Smith, M.

The school play this year was The Happiest Millionaire by Kyle Crichton suggested by the book My Philadelphia Father by Cornelia Drexel Biddle and Kyle Crichton. It was presented in November. This production is one which helps to ,defray the cost of the annual one-act play contest. How to Propose, Period House, Home to Mother and Neglet ted Husbands' Sewing Club were plays presented by the members of the Dramatics Club. The winning play from this group was presented in the on---act play eonl,st in March. The club is one ol' the busiest in school, and their productions were thoroughly enjoyed by all of their audiences. tg The One Act Play Contest f 'rf First Row: T. Glover. B. Dix, Mr. Fitzgerald, E.

DISTRIBUTIVE EDUCATION CLUB The Brattleboro chapter of the Distributive Edu- cation Clubs of America is relatively new to our school. The club, in its third year nl' existence is active during the school day. D.E.C.A., a part of the classroom program, broadens the student's out- look, skills, knowledge, and attitudes in thc area of commercial distribution. State and national D.E.C.A. conventions provide a goal for members, and it is toward this goal that the year's activities are aimed. An employer-employee banquet allows the students and employers to become lieth-r acquainted with their responsibilities to ea di other, Perhaps the most noticeable function of the Distributive Education Club, however, is the decora- tion of the B.U.H.S. hall window displays. These displays arf planned and created by the members of D.E., and they have added much to the appear- ance of our halls. Since the members must work after school, the lJ.l'f.

The club is designed to develop ideas and desirable characteristics, such as eo-operation, loyalty, and a sense of responsibility. Through field trips to various business concerns and talks given by visiting businessmen, the members are better able to understand our business economic system. Besides exposing the group to business experience, the club also hopes to develop capable business leaders. 1' 1- .W any Q' 'W wi , 6 3 fig? 316 ' xv? g v af A , Q f i 5 'nrlfn 5 F1 Lild ' Q First Row: J.

STAGE CREW The stage crew, a necessary and unseen part of every stage production, is most important to our sehool. There are about eighteen regular members with a half dozen more learning the art. The work is carefully divided into departments: lighting, props, recording, sound effects, and curtains. Each department learns to work on its own specialtiesg yet it must he able to coordinate with the other departments, During the year, the stage crew is always on Pirlll-SOIll0tllllCS for nonschool affairs. Jobs back stage are seriously taken for they often make or break the show. The Variety Show, the School Play, the Christmas Concert, and the Une Act Play Contest are a few of these productions. Without the responsible workers of our stage crew, our school would certainly lack a special part of its productions. Stars of the show First Row: D. Wood, R. Terry, P. Crowley, D.

A library aide may charge books at the desk, repair or return books to the shelves, or work on publicity displays. A library assistant not only serves his s'-bool community but also serves himself through learning new skills and through investigation of career opportunities in the field.

The membership this year numbers seventy students, who auditioned from the upper four classes, Among its annual affairs are the Christmas Con- cert, with songs typical of the season, and the Sacred Music Concert, collection of songs at Easter. Later in the year the Girls' Glee Club, the band, and the choir combine to present the Spring Concert. Taking part in the baccalaureate and graduation exercises and presenting the finale of the annual Variety Show are other activities enjoyed by the choir as well as the audiences. The group has viewed films with the idea of furthering their musical background. The films have also given the do's and don't's of singing. This spring a selected few journeyed to the New England Music Festival and another group went to the State Music Festival in Burlington. A We can be very proud that such a fine organization represents our school in the musical field. Choir members harmonize Left to Right: S. Thomas, E. Nurse, C. Prout, S. Anderson, A. Paradis, S. Bingham, S. Underwood. Touche MAJ ORETTES The presence of the seven majorettes at football games, basketball games, pep rallies, and parades adds much to the color of our band, The ease with which these girls perform belies the long hours of practice which are necessary for each event. The twirlers have many duties, but most important, although the least publicized, is the yearly instruc- tion of new majorettes who will replace the grad- uating scniors. Uther activities include participation in the band concerts and in the Variety Show. A new idea this year is the selection of four junior high girls to march with the junior high band. These girls, however, will have to try out again be- fore the Student Council to beconle senior high ma jorettes. The majorcttcs add much to our school and its spirit. , s.: SENIOR HTGH PEP CLUB First Row: C. Blakeborough, D. Streeter, D. Atema, P. Pettee, M. Rupprecht, H. Hammarlund, L. Doyle, T. Lovell, P.

At 8:15 on May 2, 1962. the first annual plenary session of the Brattleboro Union High School Model United Nations General Assembly was called to order. Student delegates from forty-four countries spent the next two hours in strenuous debate on the issues of Red China's admission to the UN and disarmament. Master-minded by Robert Gregg with the help of Dave Neumeister, the model assembly was a huge success. In a gym transformed by many bright- colored flags, Mr. Stinchfield opened the program with a fine keynote address. Bob Page. Cuba, was the first speaker from the floor. He presented a resolution for immediate admission of Red China. He then ranted for a few minutes on the evils of Yankee imperialism. His frequent harangues, coupled with the pleas of Alan Orvis, U.S.S.R., resulted in an exciting contest of wits with alert opponentl Martin Zelbow, United Kingdom, and Jerry Allen, United States. Of unique merit was France's speech Amato and Di Estabrook . . , La Belle Italia by Barb Stebbins, spoken in French and translated hy Edie Nurse. Throughout the session freshman pages were con- stantly occupied with passing innumerable notes from country to country. The notes supposedly con- tained matter of international origin like Be care- ful about the way you vote or you'll be sorry. The assembly drew to a close amid the excitement of an offer by the U.S.S.R. to aeeept any U.S. dis- armament control system. On the suggestion of the United Kingdom, the resolution was tabled so dele- gates could return to their homelands to give care- ful thought to such a momentous breakthrough. After the countries had expressed fervid feelings of hope and appreciation. the session adjourned. The effort and enthusiasm of all involved made this first annual model general assembly informative and interesting to the audience as well as to the participants. And as some students commented, It was a darn good show. Barb Wialkcr and Dottie Manuel . . - Local Colt ITALY SAUDI ARAB , van, THLETICS First Row: J. Wilbur, P. Tier, B. Loomis, S. Foote, M.

FOOTBALL After the late August training sessions, our Colonels, under the direction of head coach Andrew Natowich and assistant Roland Emery, were ready on September 22 to meet their first opposing team. the Bellows Falls Terriers. With co-captain Jerry Allen's passing. Jim Fisher was able to make it over the line for our first and only touchdown, and Pat Vescio received Allen's pass for the afterpoint. This aftcrpoint proved to bc very important as it gave us a 7-6 victory. Bob Asbury and jim Fisher were the top gainers for the Coloncls. Both picked up forty-four yards on eight carries for an average of better than five yards per try. Barry Mansfield picked up thirty-thrcc yards on his eight attempts. Our second game of the season, which was played on September 29 with the Springfield Cosmos, also cndcd in a T-6 scoreg this time, however, we were defeated. Our own mistakes cost us the game. Defen- sivcly, Alan Orvis and Bob Asbury were the stand- onts. Orvis had five tackles and assisted on three others. Asbury brought four Cosmos down and also carried fifteen times for ninety-one yards. Our third game and second victory took place on October 6 against the Rutland Raiders. Fumbles and interceptions were partly the cause of the 20-0 win, Alan Orvis intercepted a pass and ran it back sixty-five yards for a third touchdown, Workllorses in this game were ,lim Fisher and Barry Mansfield. mi, su., and fm.

Much improvement was seen in the tackling of the defensive unit. Our third win and also our fourth straight game on the road was over Rice Memorial in Burlington on October 13. This game ended in a 13-12 score. Barl'y Mansfield was again the workhorse for the Colonels, carrying eleven times for forty-two yards. Jim Fisher picked up twenty yards in six carries, co-captain Butch Cersosimo gained twenty-five yards in seven tries, while Bob Asbury caried four times and picked up fourteen yards. The pass combination of Jerry Allen to Bob Asbury, the explosive cunning of Barry Mansfield, Butch Cersosimo, and Bob Asbury, plus the defensive and offensive line play of our Colonels lead us to our fourth straight victory and first home game with a score of 39-6 over weak Springfield, Massachusetts, Classical High School, October 20. Ray Carbonell was perhaps the outstanding lineman for our team with four tackles and two assists. However, the entire line came in for plenty of praise from Coach Natowich. On October 28 we closed out our season against Vermont opposition with a 4-1 record in our favor, our only upset being that of Springfield, Vermont. The last victory was over Mount Saint Joseph. There were several highlights in this game for our team, chief of which were the blocked punt by Alan Orvis, who recovered the ball and raced forty- six yards into the Mountie end zone for our first score, and an eighty-seven yard touchdown by Jerry Allen on the second half kickoff. Again the line play of our team was outstanding. We closed this game with a 39-14 score. Our last game of the season was the annual con- test with Keene, New Hampshire, on November 4th. We lost, 19-12. Our Colonels had a few moments of glory, however, which lasted the one period when we had a 12-0 lead, An intercepted pass and a blocked punt led to the two Colonel scores early in the game, M-ark Richards picked off a pass thrown by a Keene player on the Keene thirty yard line and galloped the rest of the way into the end zone. We played a tremendous defense, holding Keene on a series of plays. Brattleboro fans got a glimpse of things to come on the next series of plays, when Coach Natowich inserted freshman Ray Smith into the line. Smith did a terrific job in his first varsity game, carrying the ball thirty yards for the longest run of the game. All together our Colonels had a good season and are looking forward to an even better one next year with the junior returnees and an up and coming junior varsity, Later in the fall, the announcement of the Vermont All-State Grid Stars gave recognition to the following: First Team Guard, Alan Orvis and First Team Center, Ray Carbonellg Second Team Quarterback, jerry Allen, and Honorable Mention Back, Jim Fisher and Guard, Tony Mastaler.

GIRLS' SKI TEAM While January's rain and early February's icy snow conditions forced cancellation of most of the early season ski meets, the girls' ski team, under the coaching of Mrs. James Barker, picked up mo- mentum to end the season with three team wins out of the four major meets. In the only January meet, the girls went to Ascut- ney on the 6th and raced the Windsor girls in the rain. The Brattleboro girls won with 95.5 to Wind- sor's 86.5, taking all but first two places, with Donna Jasienowski 3rd, Phyllis Edson 4th, Mary Ann Hooper Sth, Sally Miniszek 6th and Jane Miniszek 7th, all providing a solid wedge that Windsor's first two places couldn't outpoint. February was slim in skiing for the girls, with the important Burlington meet cancelled by northern Vermont ice, Finally on March 17, when St. Patrick's giddy green was covered with a good mantle of real white snow, the girls went to Sunapee, N.H., to race with Windsor, Burlington, Woodstock and Stevens of Claremont, beating all four with the highest team score, boosted especially by ,lane Miniszek's best combined time of the day among the thiry-five contestants. The girls went the next weekend on March 24th to Woodstock to race the Woodstock and Windsor girls on a long and hairy giant slalom course at Suicide Six. Our girls again won as a team, with Mary Ann Hooper placing a strong first in the meet. After Pat 1 I I l Niboli of Windsor's 3rd place and 4th of Lee Hall 1 of Woodstock, Brattleboro's Edson, J. Miniszek, N jasienowski and S. Mini.zek presented a solid front I within a six second range, 1 Coach Gale Barker, commenting on her BUHS team, said, The girls showed in this race fWood- y stock! that they had enough stamina and technical perfection to win over the longest course they have been confronted with as a team.

The boys started out with two wins, however, the first in the cross-country and jumping meet at Springfield, with Woodstock., Windsor, Stevens of Claremont and Springfield. In this meet, Dave Nelson and Dave Neumeister provided best per- formances. At Ascutney on january 6th, with a slalom, cross country, and jumping meet, Brattleboro placed xfirst, in all events competing with Woodstock, Spring- field, Windsor and Stevens of Claremont. The favorite Woodstock Winter Carnival, scheduled for the 19th and 20th of January, was ,cancelled when Suicide Six turned up too glare for even the toughest Vermonters. This made the Southern District meet at Putney on January 27th the next competition, with an icy cross country course 'made skiable by the persistence of a tractor. It was a four event meet in which Putney School was the overall winner, with Brattleboro second, followed by Springfield. Brattleboro's strongest men were its jumpers, with Daryl Farr lst, Eric Merrill 2nd. David Neumeister 4-th and David Harris 6th, The giant slalom, in which the Brattleboro team was third in the meet, showed Steve Douglas in 2nd place, David Neumcister 8th, and Warren Neumeister 11th. The cross country found Jerry Allen 7th, Steve Douglas 9th and Warren Neumeister 10th. The State Meet, held at Killington on February 9th and 10th, was won by Lyndon, with Brattleboro 6th out of ten teams. There were a few fine indi- vidual performances, however, with BUHS Eric Merrill top jumper of the six teams and Daryl Farr 6th. The slalom race found Steve Douglas 3rd, Warren Neumeistcr 8th and Steve Fellows 14-th. In the giant slalom Warren Neumeister was 10th, Steve Fellows 17th, and in cross country Steve Douglas was 8th and Jerry Allen 15th. The failure to place as a team in this meet put Brattleboro out of running for the New England competition this year, even though Eric Merrill's win as Vermont State Champion jumper was im- pressive indeed. lvhile Coach Barker will lose a few good senior skiers, he still has some of his strongest men left, with a promising young squad coming along for a fine season next year.

GIRLS' TENNIS The girls' tennis team, under the supervision of Walter Reuling, had a five match season which ended with two wins, two losses, and a tie. The first match was held September 28 on the two courts at Bellows Falls. The girls first played six singles, ending in a 3-3 tie which was broken by Bellows Falls when they won the only doubles. The next match was on the home courts October 2 with the girls from Greenfield, Massachusetts. Brattleboro took the singles 4-2, and each school won a doubles match, producing a final score of 5-3 for Brattleboro's first win. For the third match, Bellows Falls came to Brat- tleboro on October 9, when the Terriers again emerged victors, taking the singles 3-1 and split- ting the two doubles, The final score was 4-2. 'The next match took place in Greenfield on Oc- tober 16. Greenfield took the singles 3-2, but since Brattleboro rallied and won both doubles, the match ended in Brattleboro's favor, 4-3, For the last match of the season, the Colonels went to Northfield School For Girls where, be- cause of a draw, the final score was 2 V3-2 At this match two BUHS girls, ,lane Boyden and Mary Ann Hooper, found themselves in a match against Cheryl Beche and Joan Latchis, former BUHS girls! The girls hold their matches in the fall so that they won't interfere with the boys' spring schedule. Dottie Manuel r.,- T?f:Qf i, gy fr in f A' s 3 . 'H 5 9 'i 'Q Q. .Q 'Q v -i'f fm?

The first playoff at Vermont Academy, saw our Coloncls defeat Hartford 1-0. This victory enabled us to play Burlington High in the final playoff, also at Vermont Academy, In an exciting game, our team scored ten times in one inning to win the state baseball title. The final score was a 16-4 victory, avenging a defeat handed Brattleboro by Burlington in 1957, the last time t.he two teams met for the state title. The Colonels were honored on their return home to Brattleboro when the Fire Department met them on Putney Road with several fire trucks. They were guests of the department at the station for hot dogs and soda. With five returnces and an up and coming Junior Varsity we look forward to another success- ful season. First Row: M.
