EL!-155 HISTIJHY On September 10, 1952, the hallowed halls of B.H.S. opened wide to admit 154 timid freshmen, the largest freshman class in our school's history. After a few days of meeting new teachers, getting lost, and losing schedules, we finally settled down, and, at our first class meeting, were introduced to our advisor, Mr. Jolin, and elected our class officers. We chose Theodore Pascoe, President, Joan Normandin, Vice-President, Benjamin LaPorte, Secretary, and William Herzog, Treasurer. Marilyn Miga shone scholastically with the highest average. In the fall of '53, we sophomores, now really a part of B.H.S., settled down to business from the start. We elected Dale Reed, President, John Lacey, Vice-President, Patricia Freitas, Secretary, and Robert Stewart, Treasurer. As Juniors, upperclassmen at last, we really began to show our abili- ties. We started by electing Marilyn Miga, President, David Sartrys, Vice-President, Anna Lariviere, Secretary, and Deborah Steere, Treasurer.
