It is with our deepest gratitude that we dedicate our yearbook to Mr. Eugene Whitney. 6 PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE The generation to which your class belongs faces many unique and complex problems. You are living in a world of conflicting philosophies - a world enjoying great technological advance and scientific progress, a world con- fronted with enormous economic and social problems. How will you greet this new period of your life following graduation? You may enter upon it gladly, un- hesitatingly eager to grasp its opportunities and to master its difficulties. You may enter upon it cringingly, with fear and misgivings, expecting failure and waiting for it to overtake you. Your mental attitude will determine to a very large extent just what life will hold for you. The faculty joins with me in offering our heartiest con- gratulations on your forthcoming graduation. May each of you find success and happiness and provide a contribution to a better world for all. Fred M. Crouse Principal CURRICULUM 9 Mr. Richard Albert Instrumental Music Director Gorham State College Bachelor of Music Mrs. Mona Irish Vocal Music New England Conservatory of Music Mrs. Sabasteanski - Principal’s secretary. Under the fine direction of Mr. Albert and Mrs. Irish, the musical department of B.H.S. experienced a successful year. The band expressed its school spirit at all the home football games and it was an asset to the school. Mr. Albert often played and marched with the band after many a successful game. With his guidance a brass sectional was molded and it performed at the Christmas assembly playing a medley of traditional songs. The band made a good showing at both the fall and spring concerts and successfully played Tijuana Brass music. Mrs. Irish directs not only the Glee Club but also instructs the Harmoneers, Deborettes, Chansonettes, and Bonhommes. Singing at the school concerts, these groups perform many of the folk lyrics. Mrs. Irish has devoted much of her life at Bridgton High to these groups and we arc all very proud of their abilities. During the winter the Chansonettes were invited to appear on Talent Spot Light which is an honor in itself. They appeared on Dave Astor and received many congratu- lations. Both the band and specialty groups journeyed to the musical festival. To make a group successful it takes devotion and the sacrificing of time and energy. Mrs. Irish and Mr. Albert have done an excel- lent job and we are indebted to them for their many talents. 10 Winners and winnings of the Magazine Drive. Magazine Sales Campaign Miss Cook - Librarian. Anxiety and tension rose during the small allotment of time four classes had to compete in the magazine drive. The Seniors had bravely offered each underclassman a coke and ice cream if they should sell more magazines than the Seniors. As sales-slips and instruction phamplets were being passed to each member of the student body, one could readily see salesmen from every class scurrying to nearby houses. The Seniors in cars-the Freshmen by foot power. To keep spirits high, students selling magazines the first day of the campaign were eligible for the drawings of many valuable prizes. John Seavey won the Blackhawk blanket, Shirley Bigelow and Jack Chandler won a taperecorder and radio respec- tively. Each salesman selling three magazines or bringing in five dollars was considered a V.I.P. and eligible to attend the celebration dance. From these V.I.P.’s, two would be drawn at the dance to win twenty dollars each. Students selling five magazines or $15 worth of subscriptions took home the campaign mascot. Salesmen from each homeroom eagerly brought in money to their homeroom captains and watched their class color rise on the total sales chart. Alas! At the end of a week the Seniors had brought in more money than the other classes. The victors (broke to begin with) were saved and awarded the big mascot. At the dance, Steve Wilson and Patty Stark each won twenty dollars. The five highest school salesmen were Connie Browne $64.98; Brenda Knight $60.10; Theresa Macdonald $59.00; Shelly Keene $56.42; and John Howard $57.42. Connie, selling the most maga- zines, won a transistor radio-record player. Brenda, the second highest salesman, was awarded a transistor radio. This year’s magazine campaign was a very successful one in- deed. We took in $300 more than last year and made $1,100 in profit. This money will be used towards equipment for the Photog- raphy Club. Some of the money will purchase a P.A. system. This year, Connie Browne, Chairman of the drive and Susan Davis, assistant chairman, worked very hard with many of the faculty members to make this year’s magazine drive a very suc- cessful one. 11 Mr. Richard Bucknell Biology, Gen. Science Gorham State College, B.S. Mr. Eugene Whitney - Chemistry, Biology Science - Boston University, U. of New Hampshire Colby, Salem State College, B.S. Ed., M.S.T. Math and science maintain an important aspect of a well- rounded education at Bridgton High School. The faculty members of this department strive for high academic standards and awareness of the many career choices after graduation and further education. In the science field, Mr. Bucknell instructs Biology and Earth Science. Mr. Whitney not only teaches Biology, Earth Science and Chemistry, but also coaches J. V. Basketball and Baseball. Mr. Spear teaches Algebra II, Geometry, Advanced Math, and Physics. Mr. Kilborn instructs Algebra and Commercial Math and coaches football and Varsity Basketball. Because the needs of students differ and change, B.H.S. strives to meet these demands. This year Mr. Goodman instructs a new re- fresher course in basic math and arithmetic. In a well-rounded curriculum the importance of math and science must be readily stressed to all students. Mrs. Kilborn and Mr. Dwelley instruct studies in business math, bookkeeping, along with the other courses in typing, shorthand, etc. This certainly is a growing world of science and math and so B.H.S. must also be a smaller sphere where these two subjects play a most important role. 12 Mr. Norman Spear - Physics, Ad. Math, Algebra II, Geometry U. of Me., B. S. U. of Wyoming Mr. Arthur Kilborn - Albegra I, Gen. Math Applied Math - U. of Me., B.S. The History Department at B.H.S. seems to be a very versatile one. The teachers take a very active part in many of the extra cur- ricular activities. Mrs. Parker not only teaches Economics, Prob- lems of Democracy and Civics but also coaches Junior Prize Speak- ing and various speech contests, one of which is the annual V.F.W. Voice of Democracy speech in which students partici- pating must write their own original speech. The contestants are judged, the winners are announced, and they then speak at a school assembly. This year Liz Warren was awarded first place, Holly Sanborn second and Greg Crosby was third. Liz will go on to other contests. Mr. Coombs teaches history, English, and Drivers Education, a new aspect of the school curriculum, summer and fall. Mr. Barnes has experienced many ventures to foreign countries thus bringing his world history students a little closer to his subject. History is life itself-an exciting and essential part of a com- plete education. At B.H.S. we strive not only to learn but to make these facts more of a reality. Mr. Richard Coombs - English, Civics, History U. of Me., Assoc, of Arts, B.S. Ed. 13 Mrs. Eleanor Parker - P.O.D., Civics, Economics History - Bates, A.B. Mr. Jack Barnes - English, History Willimantic Teachers College, A.S.; N. Dakota State College, B.S. Mr. Craig Gray - English - U. of Conn. B.A., New Britain Teachers College, Brown University Guiding students in the awareness of English Literature and the background of our language is a cultural aspect at B.H.S. Our many English teachers lend a strong hand in not only teaching students to appreciate the classics but also in stimulating young minds to create their own style and sense of taste. Mr. Riley, new to us this year, instructs many divisions of English. His job encompasses teaching grammar to the Freshman and guiding each Senior in producing his own thesis. Mrs. J. Cook, Mr. Coombs, and Mr. Barnes teach the f reshmen, Sophomore, and Junior classes of English. Mr. Gray, head of the English Depart- ment, sees representatives from all four grades each day in his English classes. He also is the faculty advisor to the Corona, the B.H.S. year book. This historic account of a year at school pre- sents many opportune chances for students to express their talents in creative writing, planning, and artistic abilities. Many thoughts and ideas are created in the library where students are allowed to do research, read books, or just browse. So that the library may reach as many as possible, B.H.S. has made sure that in it there is something of interest to every student. Mr. George Riley - English - Bates College, A.B. 14 Mrs. Jacqueline Cook - English French - Long Beach City College California State College, B.A. Marsha listens in. To promote world understanding and relations with our neigh- bors around the world, B.H.S. recently has been more concerned with the mastering of foreign languages. New emphasis is being placed on the language lab with the tapes and audiovisual aides. Much of the class time is devoted to the lab in foreign language in- struction. Mrs. H. Cook, instructor of French 11 and 111 and Latin 1, II, and 111, spent much of her summer vacation making tapes for her French classes. Mrs. J. Cook also spends much time in this area. While time is being spent on learning a foreign tongue, the cul- ture of that particular country is also taught. Customs differing from ours are found very interesting and often evoke class discussions and reports. Many similarities are found between the foreign country and ours and the more knowledge we acquire, the closer our bonds become. Outside of the classroom, a language student is encouraged to use the tape recorder and earphones in the library. The tapes one has to select from are various and a student may play a tape purely for pleasure or he may choose a quick-change drill to work on. Also in the library many books may be obtained on the culture and language of a particular country for research or pleasure reading. Mrs. H. Cook, as head of the library, cooperates with many of the teachers in assurance that their subject is represented somewhere on the bookshelves. This tends to make for a more balanced library which is able to render its services to as many students as possible. B.H.S. stresses awareness of how a learned subject may serve the student after school. A subject doesn’t help a student unless he can, with further education, use it in later life. Language unfolds many job opportunities and so evokes many students to make a language their major in college. Many departments must work together to enable a student to identify one subject with another and use them interchangably. His course of study then becomes more uniform and he can readily see common bonds between his studies. Mrs. Hazel Cook - French Latin-U. of Me., B.A., M.A. 15 Mr. Wayne Stearns Ind. Arts - Gorham State College, B.S. Mr. Clifton Hall - Ind. Arts, Mech. Drawing Technical Shop - Gorham State College, B.S. U. of Me., M. Ed. At Bridgton High School, emphasis is placed on a strong, well balanced commercial course for those students who wish to make a career of homemaking, carpentry, or mechanical drawing. We realize the many opportunities in these fields and attempt to strengthen them as much as possible. Mrs. Stearns, head of the Home Economics department stresses the need for efficient homemakers of tomorrow. These girls will be rearing the next generation and it is one of the more pressing responsibilities to face. Home Ec. teaches young ladies to cook, sew, and practice good judgement and common sense, from these basics spread increasing job opportunities for young women in many fields. Mrs. Elizabeth Stearns - Home Economics Simmons, B.S. 16 Mrs. Esther Kilborn Shorthand. Typing Office Prac. Bliss, Husson, B.S. 00091 00000 00001 0OOOO Mr. Robert Dwelley - Typing, Bookkeeping, Gen. Business Ricker College, Husson College, B.S. The Industrial Arts department offers a future for many talented and skilled men who seek this as a career.. Mr. Stearns and Mr. Hall teach Shop and Mechanical Drawing not only to the commercial students but also to some college- bound people. Many of the boys who are enrolled in the Industrial Arts course learn to run the audio-visual aides and each period one is placed in the A.V. room to assist students using recorders and tapes. As college-bound students prepare for further education, many realize typing as a certain asset and schedule the course their senior year. Mr. Dwelley instructs three periods of typing classes containing both college and commercial course students. Book- keeping is another subject essential not only for commercial girls but boys as well. Mrs. Kilborn, engaged in Shorthand, Typing, and Business Math, emphasizes the many chances for advancement in these areas. 17 Mr. Richard Webber - Guidance - U. of Me., A.A. B.S. Ed.; M. Ed. Guidance. Mr. Frederick Ross - Physical Education Farmington State College, Aroostook State Teachers’ College, B.S. 18 Steering pupils along the way to a better life with more happi- ness is the job of our guidance counselor, Mr. Webber, and the principal, Mr. Crouse. Frequent consultations are made and many tests arc given to analyze a student’s abilities and interests. After careful consideration suggestions are often made and viewed by both the student and teacher. In the Guidance office many college handbooks are ready to be browsed through and looked over. Suggestions and help may be found here always. Students may feel free at any time to consult with a teacher concerning school work or other personal problems. This provides for a unique student-teacher relationship essential to an outstand- ing school. To develop a well rounded student, physically as well as mentally, a good physical education course is an essential aspect of any school curriculum. B.H.S. stresses the importance of not only excelling in a sport, but the mere participation, acquiring sports- manship and fair play. Mr. Ross has been the P.E. teacher at B.H.S. five years and dur- ing that short duration of time, we have seen many improvements take place. New equipment, such as the trampoline, balance beam, horizontal bar, ping pong table and mats, has been obtained. Much of this apparatus was earned by the determination of the gymnastic team through the annual gym demonstration. The Industrial Arts department has built many pieces of our equip- ment such as the spring board, peg board, and Swedish box. Interscholastic sports at B.H.S. are headed by the Director of Athletics, Mr. Hall. Through his careful planning and wise decisions, the many different sports are run smoothly. Physical Education is a growing field around the world and B.H.S. is moving along the main stream with the other traffic. Mr. Homor Lord Mr. Wilber Sargent 19 Custodians, Gordan Irish, Homer Lord, and Wilbur Sargent, are also part time bus drivers serving the community with com- petence and efficiency. In addition to these main jobs, the two men supervise, with Mr. Crouse, the Neighborhood Youth Corps after school and Saturdays. The boys in the corps engage in Janitorial and maintenance work, and during the summer months many improvements and large jobs are done by these students.

JUNIORS The class of ’69 started the school year with an enroll- ment of 77. At our first class meeting we elected Bill Graham for President. Tim Ross as Vice President, Pam Searles, Secretary, and Roberta Gilman, Treasurer. Our Student Council representatives for this year are Sam Proctor, Jon Beal, Greta Thomas, Craig Holden, and Pat Moynihan. Juniors placed second overall in Homecoming activities, with Cindy Rollins and Sherm Linscott as our king and queen candidates. We placed first in attendance at the rally, game, and dance. Before we ourselves are promoted to the Senior House, we wish you, the graduatin class of 1968, our best wishes for happiness and success in the future. It will soon be our turn to be the Seniors of Bridgton High School, and we will remember the friendship you have given us. Officers: P. Searles-Sec., B. Graham-Pres., R. Gilman-Treas., T. Ross-V.

At our first meeting we elected our class officers. They are Jimmy Mains, Pres.; Mike Hibbard, V.- Pres.; Patty Cornelius, Treas.; Mary Clancy, Sec. Our class advisors are Mrs. Parker, Mr. Barnes, and Mr. Gray. Our Student Council members are Janet Barker, Lynn Searles, Gary Flick, and Bobby Holden. Our class has participated strongly in football, basket- ball, ski team, and other extracurricular activities through- out the school year. Besides putting numerous efforts in sports, our class has had many students on the honor rolls for high honors and citizenship. Faye Pike and Peggy Noyes were our Homecoming Queen and Winter Carnival Queen. Their escorts were Mike Hibbard and Austin Burnell, respectively. Instead of the yearly Sophomore Flop, this year our class put on a successful Sophomore Hop with the Night Ryders pro- viding the music. We wish to express our thanks to our class advisors and the Graduating Class of 1968. Officers: J. Mains-Pres., P. Cornelius-Trcas., M. Clancy-Sec., M. Hibbard-V. Pres. Row 1: D. Lord, K. Harmon, S.

Row 4: FRESHMEN The class of 71 thrilled the spectators at the initiation activities. Good sportsmanship prevailed as the upper- classmen had their annual fun. Close to a hundred freshmen made a fabulous addition to B.H.S. Many teachers have said that they never will forget us. We have participated strongly in all sports. We thank our class advisors and all the people who have helped the freshman class. These people started our class on a hopefully successful four years of school.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY National Honor Society includes Juniors and Seniors who have accumulated an 87 average and proved to have qualities of scholar- ship, leadership, character, and service. This year the group, with advisors, Mrs. Cook and Mr. Crouse, have taken the responsibility of selling Stock Certificates for Bridgton’s Centenial. These students take on tutoring jobs and essentially help Fresh- men and newcomers adjust to the B.H.S. program. The annual project of the N.H.S. is to continue the B.H.S. scrapbook by summarizing important events of the year. 32 STUDENT COUNCIL Row 1: J. Barker, C. Hayward, Mr. Crouse-Advisor, S. Proctor, A.

The Student Council consists of sixteen members; six seniors, five juniors, four sophomores, and three freshmen. They represent the entire student body as a government and help sponsor Home- coming, Winter Carnival, and many of the record hops following school activities, f rom the earnings of these dances and other drives, the Council awards an annual scholarship of SI50. This year the Student Council will sponsor the Western Regional Student Council Convention of which Charlie Hayward is president. Sam Proctor will run for President representing B.H.S. for the 1968-69 term. Charlie Hayward, Pres, of the Student Council, received the honor to represent the State of Maine in the 1968 United States Senate Youth Program made possible by a grant from the William Pandolph Hearst Foundation. He and one other boy se- lected by Superintendants and state officials to participate in the Youth program staged in Washington, D. C, from January 21, 1968 to January 27, 1968. Charlie spent a day in the office of Margret Chase Smith and heard from many of the Senate speakers. The Student Council, advised by Mr. Crouse, is certainly one to be proud of. Many of our activities would not have been possible without careful planning and fine direction. Elected by the student body, they form the backbone of the school. 33 V. Graffam, J. Lawrence, G.

Somehow the lab (room 115) closet became off-limits to the club members. However, the disgruntled and disheveled group finally located a closet among the clouds in the second floor of the annex. Study hall at the annex became the dark room hour. Mary Berry, Paula Flint, and Jennifer Graham, were chaperoned by Peter Makerron in the dark room fifth period. Connie Browne, our leader, is forever yelling, “Will you please clean the dryer!” Of course, she had the right. It’s her dryer. It's her brother’s enlarger (thanks Bill). No one wants to admit who the pans belong to. With expenses paid for by the Corona, we finally fixed the old school Yaschica, and descended on the football games. Since then we have entered the National Scholastic Photography contest. Ed Bicknell of Portland’s Tekniphoto came up for one of our evening meetings and gave a real display of scientific technique. You even time the developing process! But, the key man who opened the doors to the printing process with the gift of much free paper and film was Paul Cane of Wendell White. 37 Contact Sheet” - Mary Berry LITERARY “WHY?” I saw in the sky a strange light And a ray descending from heaven While a voice 1 heard asking “Why fight?” I heard the birds singing “Peace, peace.” 1 saw in the sky a strange light And a mist coming down from above While a voice repeated “Why fight?” 1 heard the birds singing “Love, love” I thought how strange it should be That such questions came down from the sky While those of us here on this earth Can only re-echo the “Why?” Mary Shorey “THE QUEUE” An old man came out the door and said, “You’re next!” What a silly old man! Millions of people stand ahead of me! They are there, aren’t they? You see them, don’t you? Please, tell me! Of course you see them! They’re there; millions of them What a silly ... Jane Morris “THE BEACH AT NIGHT” Quicksilver tides Slide along the sand Increasing efforts toward the land. Childhood castles glide apart. Slip away and find a Start- Tomorrow Beyond the bar, A falling star Is drowned in its own image. Sue Davis 38 “THE LEARNING PROCESS” Catch the rays of light around you And save the rays for thinking time, Look at the night which must astound you And hear the winds of darkness whine. Gather the rays and keep them healthy. Look at the night and pierce its walls. Find the trail which must seem wealthy And see the worth of thinking halls. The mind of man is always moving While outside the rays abound, So if the light is merely soothing Look to the dark for tomorrow’s sound. Beyond the night there’s light again So with your rays drive through the night Until you’ve passed where other men Stopped when their minds ran out of light.

B Club has had regular meetings all year which have been discussions for the uses of the large sum of money in our treasury. B Club has voted to buy a movie camera and projector to take films of our sports activities. B Club has also had a record hop which ended in a big FLOP. B Club has bought buttons for sale with pictures of our basketball team on them. We also have bought trophies for our athletic teams. B club has attained many new members this year and is expanding. We also had Homecoming this year which was a great success. 47 Row 1: C. Browne, S. Gyger, D. Holden, Mr. Coombs-Advisor, bom, S. Gilman, R. Bacon, L. Searles, K. Peterson, L. Arntsen. J.

The Future Teachers of America Club, established only three years ago and headed by Mr. Coombs, works to teach two main goals. One of these aims is to serve B.H.S. and its faculty by taking over classes and study halls in the ab- sence of a teacher. Work is being done on plans to observe and teach in the lower grades and elementary schools. This year the F.T.A. Club sponsored the National Educational Week open house. Each mem- ber of the club helped one teacher prepare to meet many parents for consultations and briefings. Seeking to explore the paths of a teaching career, the F.T.A. members obtain a better understand- ing and a more accurate perception of the profession. Many problems are discussed by the group and students often engage in debates. Raising money for the F.T.A. scholarship is a chief project of the group. This scholarship is given to a senior interested in the teaching profession who has diligently proven his concern. To raise funds, the group sponsors an annual dance and collects dues from its members. The F.T.A. group is composed of eighteen members working as individuals and striving to accom- plish their own personal goal in life. They are seeking a common profession and the best way in which they may serve society and the ever changing world. 48 Row 1: D. Hoyt, A. Graham, K. Graham, D. Niemi, K. Sawyer, D. Noble, K.

Headed by Mrs. Stearns, the Future Home- makers of America are on their way to help keep America beautiful through conservation and her campaign. In B.H.S. there are 46 members in the F.H.A. club which functions as a service organization. Recently they sent clothes to Stevens Training Center at Hallowcll and are now planning to send food to the men in Vietnam. To celebrate Christmas the F.H.A. had a small party and ex- changed gifts. Later in the year they will hold a tea for the faculty members. The club will venture to the State Convention in April. Weather prohibited them from going to the district meeting. The F.H.A. club's main objective is to train girls to take part in service clubs in the future and to be better homemakers of tomorrow. Debates and discussions are often the program at meeting and many solutions are found by their exchange of ideas and experiences. 49 We’ll finish this yet!” Senior float-winners; Below- Field Dedication at half time. SKILL!N MEMORIAL FIELD AND A FRIEND TO ALL. FREDERICK W SKU.UN. MD NOV 2 . 1920 - SEPT. 28, 196b HOMECOMING WEEK The week of October 16, 1967 was set aside this year for our Homecoming events. It was a very competitive time of the season, when the four classes contended in rivalry to win the queen position for their class candidate and also to be victorious in the Homecoming events. Pennies, dropped into slot boxes which were in different areas of town, counted as votes for the individual's favorite queen candidate. Each penny counted one vote. The queen candidates from each class were: Senior: Susan McDonald; Junior: Cindy Rollins; Sophomore: Faye Pike; Freshman: Nancy Knight. Each Homecoming event presented competition between the classes. Friday evening there was a parade of all Homecoming queen candidates, football players, band, majorettes, and cheer- leaders, followed by the Homecoming Game Rally. At the rally each individual from the different classes reported their presence to a teacher representing their class. In this way the class with the most percentage of people at the ralley earned 4 points, second best percentage talleyed 3 points etc. The Juniors had 74%, of their entire class present. The Seniors 72%, Sophomores 71%, and the Freshman 66%. At the rally, Charlie Hayward was master of ceremonies. Each class presented a skit concerning Homecoming and the non- homeroom teachers judged these short plays. The class with the most outstanding skit achieved 4 points; 2nd best skit 3 points. The Juniors came in First and the Seniors placed a close second. As always has been the custom, a large bonfire provided the warmth throughout most of the rally proceedings. We thank the boys responsible for collecting this wood. They must have gone through quite a bit of trouble and spent much time to make it possible! Saturday October 21, 1967 a parade of cheerleaders, band members. Homecoming queen candidates, and floats entered by each of the classes marched through town to the athletic Field. Again the non-homeroom teachers cast a vote for the best float. The Seniors were First earning 4 points and the Freshman were second gaining 3 points for their entry. The floats were all very original and each class put much time and effort into the Final product. The Blackhawks won their Homecoming football game by defeating Erskine 40-0. Attendance from each class was taken at the game. The Juniors, with 73% of their class present, picked up 4 50 Above-Queen Susan and escort K. Pike; Left-Whose pumpkins? points, and the Sophomores, with 69.5% attending earned 3 points. During the half time ceremonies, the Dedication of Skill in Memorial Athletic Field was made by Mr. Shorey. The Alumni held a banquet at Richardson’s Motel Saturday at 6:30. Saturday evening attendance at the Coronation Ball was again taken from each of the classes. The Juniors were First with 33% attending and the Sophomores were second with 20% of their total class present. Susan McDonald, queen candidate from the Senior Class, was crowned Homecoming queen of 1967. Kim Pike escorted Susan During her reign. The Seniors showed the most school spirit during these events by tallying the most points (22) during the Homecoming activities. The Juniors were second with 21 points. Sophomores third and Freshmen fourth. Total receipts from the queen voting boxes amounted to $245.44. Much thanks and appreciation is given to Mr. Crouse, Mr. Albert, the teachers, and everyone from the student body responsible for making this Homecoming week a very special one. To the football team, Coach Kilborn, Coach Ross, and Coach Wysong, we give our congratulations. Special thanks is given to the Alumni of Bridgton High School for their very important part in our Homecoming events-those doughnuts and the cider after the rally were delicious. 51 CLASS OF 1942 Josephine Boutilier Dorothy Brooks Vernon Burnell Margaret Bushkovske Francis Cash Harold Davis Miriam Easton Dorothy Edson Rilla Fogg Muriel Gray Mary Gray Madelyn Haggett James Halkett Sylvia Harmon Merle Hibbard Gail Howe Laurel Johnson Wilbur Kimball Ralph Leavitt Phyllis Leipold Elenor Libby Elizabeth Locke Delmore Maxfield Martha Maxfield Janet Monk Arnold Moulton Verrice Moulton Charles Pelletier Effie Pitts Athalie Plummer Lucinda Sanborn Andrew Shaw Virginia Shaw Carleton Smith Samuel Stuart Marion Thompson Virginia Tracy Joseph Unnold Charles Whitehouse Harry Whitney Jessie Witham deceased Each year it is our privilege to feature the 25th anniversary of a Bridgton High graduating class.

Our girls placed second with Fryeburg placing 1st and Wilton 3rd. In the Giant Slalom: S. McDonald placed 3rd, H. Sanborn 6th, and C. Youker 8th. In the Slalom, 1st went to S. McDonald and 8th to C. Youker. Fryeburg had a total of 95.5 points. Bridgton 92.5 and Wilton 83.3. We are very grateful to the Pleasant Mountain Ski Area for hosting the 1968 Winter Carnival. While the girls skied here in Bridgton our boys ski team traveled to Fryeburg to compete in a regional meet with Fryeburg and Winthrop. Our boys, in two days of competition, placed first as a team. In the Slalom K. Pike placed lst,C. Hayward 2nd, and J. Beal 4th. First place in the Giant Slalom, again, went to K. Pike, C. Hayward took second and J. Beal placed 5th. C. Hayward placed first in cross country and G. Cole placed 8th. The jumping was won by K. Pike and C. Hayward in the 3rd and 4th spots with J. Beal in 6th.

The boys’ V and JV both came out victorious. The following night, on Saturday, the Winter Carnival Ball was held in the Town Hall. Playing at the dance were the Travelers. The Queen Candidates were elected by their classmates to represent the four different classes. The Freshman candidate was T. Ryerson escorted by J. Ridlon, Sophomore candidate was P. Noyes escorted by A. Burnell, Junior S. Gyger escorted by M. Richards, Senior P. Flint escorted by K. Pike. The judging of the queen candidates is based on class compe- tition. The class that sells the most tickets makes their candidate queen. Usually a plaque is awarded for the best snow sculpture made by the four classes. Due to the fact that the snow sculptures were destroyed by vandals, no plaque was given out this year. This year the Seniors won the competition making P. Flint 1968 Winter Carnival Queen. C. Hayward was crowned Ski Meistcr. 55 57 Pat Moynihan scores again! FOOTBALL The 1967 Blackhawks’ football team ended its season with a proud record of 5 wins and 3 loses. Charlie Hayward and Steve Wilson, both Seniors, were elected co-captains by their teammates. It was a building season and the men were young, but most im- portant, they worked as a unified team. John Scavey, a Senior, and Daryll Watkins, a Sophomore, duly filled the positions of tackle. Jim Mains, one of the better prospects representing the Sopho- more class, and Peter Oberg, a fine sportsman, played guard posi- tions. Senior Don Holden and Junior Jon Beal, both ends, played a tremendous game both defensively and offensively. Pat Moyihan, a Junior, gave the spectators a fine show. Steve Gilpatrick, although finding himself with a foot injury, played a tremendous tackle back all season. Other standouts were Sam Proctor, Bill Graham, and Bruce Fadden. Wingback and highest scorer Steve Wilson, held the tackle and pass receiving record this year. He received the award as our Most Valuable Player and was our only four year letter man. Steve Gilpatrick, our best ball carrier, gained the most yardage. Charlie Hayward, quarterback and caller of the plays, attempted the most passes. 1 guess 1 11 have to take him with me! 58 Row 1: G.

Football men, although maybe not heard of so often as the Varsity, suffered as many personal defeats and faced as many challenges as the next guy. (They also did as many personal push-ups and laps as any other player!) These young men worked very hard to reach their goal. Much appreciation is given to the managers, Tim Ross and Mike Stewart, who gave much of their time and energy freely. Special thanks are duly given to a proud coach, Mr. Kilborn, who spent so much of his time with the team ironing out problems and doing the many things that are only seen by the football men them- selves. Much gratitude also is given to Mr. Ross, who coached the J. V. Football team, and Mr. Wysong, the assistant coach. Pep talk before the game. Row 1: K. Sanborn, D. Moynihan, J. Hayward, R. Fadden, K.

One of their best per- formances was the meet with Gray-New Glouster when Frank Merrit and David Miller placed first and second respectively. Venturing to the conference at Bethel, the boys placed a decisive fourth out of seven schools. In the regional contest at Farmington B.H.S. placed third and qualified for the state meet at Orono. As this was a season of rebuilding, many underclassmen re- ceived their letter including Freshmen Mark Graffam and Richard McConkey, Sophomores Paul Allen, and Gary Flick, and Junior Don Moore. A much improved Senior, Bill Fogg, also lettered and was a varsity team member throughout the entire season. When the going gets tough, the tough get going and thus Bill Fogg and Mike Rolfe proved to be the two most improved run- ners. Coach Barnes reported with much pride that Frand Merritt and David Miller excelled as the top two racers with David re- ceiving the most valuable runner award. Many of the team members wish to express their appreciation to the faithful parents, students, and friends who supported them and appeared at most of the meets. Kendell Brown, manager this year, devoted much of his time to the team. Coach Barnes looks for an outstanding team next year when most of the runners will be again racing for the school and qualifing for the state meet. 61 “Clear the runway!” CHEERLEADERS Our cheerleaders are an important part of our annual sports program. Through their yells of encouragement and cries for victory they create an enthusiastic at- mosphere which spurs the team on to success.

Many of the game scoreboards registered Bridgton as hoop- ing over 100 points. Phil Dyer, senior, scored the most points, 15.7 and hooked 153 rebounds. John Seavey, another senior, cinched the highest percentage of shots made and brought down 142 rebounds. Don Holden scored the most foul shots. Joe Bardsley, a freshman dark horse, was a fine addition to the team, and Jim Mains seemed to be much improved over last year. Tim Ross was manager. The J. V. men coached by Mr. Whitney, finished the season with a proud record of 15-2. The men played as a team with a tremendous desire to win. Bobby Holden and Bill Vaughn proved to be two outstanding players. In addition were Craig Holden and Jord Crouse. Billy Mitchel did a fine job as manager.

The Hawks earned the honor to participate in the tournaments at Buck field but were edged slightly by Leavitt in a final score of 22 to 33. Three senior girls, Debbie Kennison, Sharon Gilman, and Judy Magenheimer, played a fine game throughout the entire season. Cindy Rollins, forward, and Linda Osgood, rover, prove to be two strong junior prospects. Kathy Potter, Sherry Pendexter, and Susan Oakley were the managers. At the foul-shooting contest Susan Howard hooped 26 out of 35 baskets to cinch the competition. The 1968 girls team is certainly one to be proud of. They played with the desire to win and were initiated by a fine coach.

Kim Pike edged a first in Giant Slalom and came in 10th for Cross Country and third in jumping. Charlie Hayward, co- captain with Pike, placed a close second in Slalom and Giant Slalom, a fourth in Jumping, and a first in Crosscountry missing the record by one meager second. John Beal finsihed a strong fourth in Slalom, fifth in Giant Slalom, and a sixth in jumping. Gary Cole racked up an eighth in Cross Country and to round off the honors Charlie Hayward was awarded the Ski Meister. The Hawks experienced a slow start missing one of the top men throughout the first half of the year, but made a decisive comeback during the latter half. At the Fryeburg relays we notched a third out of six schools and placed a dead third in a triangle meet with Fryeburg and Gould. “Hey you guys, wait for me!” m ‘ ..

The Hawks’ girls Ski Team, coached by Mr. Coombs, skied fairly well this year. At our Winter Carnival race Bridgton placed second with Fryeburg and Wilton. Susan McDonald cinched a third in Giant Slalom and swept the slalom with a first. Holly Sanborn placed sixth in slalom and Carol Youker eighth. Fryeburg scored a total of 99.5 points, Bridgton-92.5 points, and Wilton accumu- lated 83.3 points. At Winthrop Bridgton pulled a first over Range- ley and Winthrop with a total of 185.98 points. Sally Mains carved a decisive second in slalom and Susan MacDonald swept the Giant slalom course for a victory and first place. Sally skied through the finish gate with a third. The girls went to the state meet on a bitter cold day and tied with Kents Hill for sixth place. Susan MacDonald was elected captain for the 1968 ski season, and proved to be one of the outstanding skiers. Mandy Ryerson and Carol Youker gave the team depth and a good back- ing. Mary Howell and Susan Mains seem to be good prospects for a growing team next year. A special thanks from the girls to Karen Peteison, manager, and Mr. Coombs, coach. Also, much appreciation goes to Russ Haggett and Pleasant Mountain Ski Area and the many ski in- structors who helped us during practice. 70 Row 1: D. Kenison, N. Proctor, J. Croteau, J. Cross, E.

At the end of the baseball season the Hawks found themselves tied for first place in the league with Dixfield and Monmouth. As it turned out, Bridgton tied a strong second with Monmouth in the Mountain Valley Conference! Randy Kcmpton proved to be the leading batter, along with Steve Wilson, another outstanding player. Charlie Hayward played a mean shortstop and Ronnie Ward, Captain, boasted a strong arm on the pitching mound. Sam Proctor. Lee Cousins, Bobby Holden, John Bacon, and Jim Mains were other standouts. Charlie Hayward and Ronnie Ward shared honors in receiving trophies for the most valuable players awards. Each and every man on the squad played his part, to make Bridgton High’s 1967 baseball team successful. Appreciation and congratulations are given to Mr. Whitney for his team and talent in molding the baseball team into the definite form of victory. 73 Low Bridge 74 Gary in his giant swing Marie Talchief in the beginning ... Each year the gymnastic students of Bridgton High School, directed by Coach Ross, present an exhibition of their skill in use of apparatus, in floor exercise, in tum- bling, and in other individual accomplishments. Last season the gymnastic team spent almost eight weeks in vigorous training preparing for their show in the latter part of May. The profits from the exhibition enabled the school to buy new archery equipment. This year the team will start practicing in March for their coming exhibition. It is hoped that profits from the show will go towards uneven parallel bars. SENIORS 77 MEMORIAM We, the class of 1968, wish to leave the Senior Section of our yearbook in loving memory of a dear friend and classmate, Susan Harris. She was a friend we loved so dear Her friendship warmed us through the years Her cheery smile and dancing eyes Thrilled us more than sunny skies Her gentle ways seem to belie The effervesence deep inside Her manner was graceful and demure Her strivings were always true and sure You see, we can’t believe she’s gone When visions of her still live on We remember her love and friendship kind Her memory remains in our minds. 79 Row 1: D.

We are proud of our participation in the school activities. We placed first in the magazine drive and in the Homecoming events with Susan McDonald as Queen. Paula Flint was chosen Winter Carnival Queen. At the beginning of the year we elected class officers. They are Phil Dyer-Pres., Mike Thorne-V. Pres., Brenda Knight-Sec., and Patty Ross-Treas. The following Stu- dent Council members represent our class: Charles Hay- ward-Pres., Debra Kenison—Treas., Connie Browne—Sec., Roberta Hogan, Susan McDonald and Karl Roney. Charlie Hayward was chosen as one of the two Maine delegates to attend the Youth Congress in Wash., D. C. We wish to thank Mr. Crouse for his assistance per- taining to our future plans and Mrs. Kilborn and Mr. Spear for their guidance through our last year at Bridgton High School. 81 Claire Baldwin Janice Bennett Mary Berry Kendall Brown 82 Connie Browne Laurel Chandler Alta Chaplin Thomas Collins Candice Cote 83 Gregory Crosby That was the dance that was.
