WASHINt The Class of 1961 enjoyed an eventful Wash- ington Trip with their chaperons, Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Sherman and Mr. and Mrs. James Weare. At 5:30 on Friday. April 14, sixty-seven excited people bursting with anticipation set forth from Bangor aboard the comfortable Bangor and Aroostook buses. After being delayed from 1:00 until 4:00 A. M. in Massachusetts for bus repairs, the class arrived in New York City at 8:30 bright-eyed and ready for the day’s program, which included attending the impressive Faster Pageant at Radio City Music Hall, a tour of the city, and a tour of the NBC building. Sunday was spent visiting Valley Forge and Independence Hall. We enjoyed seeing the quaint Amish people in Pennsylvania. Monday’s events included a guided tour of the battlefields at Gettysburg and a visit to Mount Vernon, the elaborate home of George and Martha Washing- ton. That night we reached New Market, Vir- ginia, where the class toured the beautiful End- less Caverns. Tuesday the Seniors reached their destination —Washington, D.

A.D., 1961. Horace O. McGowan Ivan Sherman Brian Smith ;ton trip ping at the Jefferson and Lincoln Memorials and Washington Monument, where many decided to ascend the eight hundred ninety-eight steps on foot. Wednesday the class visited the Capitol, the FBI building, and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Later they enjoyed a dress parade at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. That evening entertainment included a choice of swimming at the Ambassador Hotel pool, movies, or a nightclub. Thursday the class saw the impressive Wash- ington National Cathedral and Washington Zoo, and spent considerable time at the wondrous Smithsonian Institute. Friday marked the departure from the nation’s capital, and the afternoon and evening were spent in New York City, enjoying shopping, a circus, the Palisades, a television show, or the movies. At 9:30 an exhausted but elated group began the homeward trek to beloved Camden. At 7:10 the class sadly dismounted from the buses for the last time, and each member went his separate way (in most cases home to bed!) carrying many treasured souvenirs and rolls of film. r WASHINGTON TRIP Row 1: Raeleene Stockwell, Jean Gherardi, Elaine Alley, Carolyn Kelley, Nancy Tounge, Maxine Libby, Cecelia Engstrom, Brenda Young, Donna Fern Mitchell, Audrey Simpson, Karen Armstrong, Barbara Prescott, Donna Frances Mitchell, Mary Thomas, Lois Goldschmidt, Carol McKeen.

They introduced the suc- cessful idea of holding record hops after basketball games, they won the Curtis magazine drive all four years; and nearly one hundred percent of the class members have participated in some extracurricu- lar activity. After graduation all must store away many memories of hard work and happy times. The wonderful teachers and friends who helped to mold our lives and futures will never be forgotten. Parting thought to underclassmen: “Don’t reflect back on yesterday’s mistakes, but press ever onward, thinking what you can make of tomorrow. ‘Live as if you were to die tomorrow; learn as if you were to live forever.’ ” Sophomore Class Officers President Nancy Burkett Vice-President Wayne Hansen Secretary Pamela Dwinal Treasurer Geraldine Dickey The Sophomore Class carried out many money-raising projects this year: a very successful dance, a Grange supper which netted a profit of over two hundred dollars, and the sale of pens with the inscrip- tion, “Camden High School.” A bottle drive project was the next undertaking. Plans were made for a food sale, and the class conducted recess concessions during the third quarter. THE MEGUNTICOOK 19 REPORTS Junior Class Officers President Brian Smith Vice-President Cynthia Young Secretary Carolyn Hart Treasurer Marie Hart Throughout the year the Junior Class had many successful dances, one of which was the annual Harvest Follies. The Juniors worked hard to earn money for the Washington trip, by holding battle drives, food sales, and by selling food certificates. The class prepared a dinner for the Teachers Convention and presented the Irish Medleys in March. Many efforts were extended to make the Junior Prom a smashing success. There are many mem- bers of the class on the basketball team, in band and in other school activities. Freshman Class Officers President James Lamer Vice-President Robert McKee Secretary Joanne Kaler Treasurer Richrrd McKeen The Freshman Class entered Camden High School with much expectation for the f:ur years ahead. Many members of the class participated in extracurricular activities. During the year the class held a successful dance and had charge of recess concessions the last quarter of the school year. 8 JUNIOR CLASS Row 1: Elaine Frost, Juanita Carle, Sally Hurlburt, Carolyn Jones, Roberta Freeman, Carolyn Hart, Bette Ronco, Sandra Spirio.

Under the able and forceful direction of Mr. Henry Lunn, the show emerged after many grueling rehearsals. Mr. Sherman directed “The Shooting of Dan McGrew,” in which many class members appeared, and Mr. Hammond’s ensemble of underclassmen provided excellent entertainment dur- ing the intermission. There were many varied and entertaining segments in the show. “The Three Stooges” delighted the grade school children and the adults, through applause, showed that they appreciated the entire show, especially the “Tar- zan” skit. The entire class contributed to the songs at the beginning and end of the show. The Seniors enjoyed presenting the show and appreciated all the help offered to make the show a success. to BAND Row 1: Diann Robarts, Richard Moody, Carolyn Johnson, Barbara Prescott.

Officers elected for the year were: Manager, Richard Moody; Assistant Manager, Roscoe McFar- land; Librarian. Karen Armstrong; and Assistant Librarian, Elaine Frost. During the first semester the band was very active. The first public ap- pearance was in the fall, when it performed for the Knox County Teachers Convention in Camden. On October 28th, an ensemble entertained the audi- ence of the Senior Show during intermission. A model band rehearsal was conducted by Director Chester Hammond on November 10th during an Open House in observance of National Education Week. On December 17th the band and chorus jointly presented the annual Christmas program for the en- tire student body. Again this year the band played at all home basketball games, giving the incentive for a successful season. The annual band concert was held in the high school gymnasium on March 10th. As usual the performance was well received and attended by many parents and friends. The band was invited to attend the Camden Comman- dery’s annual Easter Breakfast which was followed by a march to the church service at the Baptist Church. The highlight of this year’s events was an exchange concert with a band in Willsboro, New York, from May 11th to the 14th. The band showed much enthusiasm in raising money for the trip and dutifully put on a public supper and sold candy. In return the Willsboro band stayed in Camden from May 25th to the 28th, and both bands presented an enjoyable joint concert. The spring activities of the Camden High School Band included marching in the Memorial Day parades in both Camden and Lincolnville, and the pre- sentation of another concert. The band’s season came to a close when an en- semble of underclassmen played at the Commencement Exercises in June. CHORUS The Camden High School Chorus practiced on Mondays and Wednesdays during activity periods under the direction of Mr. Chester Hammond. Work was done with Christmas carols and several choral arrangements. Because of a lack of enthusiasm on the boys’ part, the chorus was made up entirely of girls. This handicap, however, did not prevent their having a well balanced group. Public appearances included the Christmas assembly and graduation exercises.

SCIENCE CLUB Officers elected for the year 1960-61 were as follows: President Jerry Littlefield Vice-President David Garland Secretary Cecelia Engstrom Treasurer Elinor Hardy The club advisor was Mr. Torello. There were twenty-one members in the club. Meetings were held Wednesdays during activity periods and occa- sionally after school. One of the scheduled projects of the Science Club was a field trip to the Jackson Memorial Laboratory in Bar Harbor. Another field trip was under- taken for the specific purpose of setting traps to catch mice and rats for a collection of mammal skin. Plans were made for the setting up of a salt water aquarium and for fossil hunts. Work was done on the botanical garden, an area containing trees from many states. These trees were set out by the Science Club of 1958-59. 28 THE MEGUNTICOOK Row 1: Elaine Alley, Joseph Nuccio, Carolyn Johnson, Sharon Bowley, Mr. Brown, advisor, John Gillmor, Ellen McPheters, Bette Ronco.

DRAMATICS CLUB The Dramatics Club with a membership of thirty decided early in the fall not to have officers, but to elect a board of four directors each responsible to Mr. Brown, advisor for the club’s activities. These board members are: Sharon Bowley Carolyn Johnson John Gillmor Joseph Nuccio General Manager Costuming Settings and Properties Publicity The early meetings were concerned mainly with the choosing of a school play, tryouts, and committee appointments. After much discussion, “The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis” was chosen. Everyone enjoys performing, and the high school Dramatics Club is an excellent way to acquire self-confidence.

Mr. Haley, advisor JUNIOR PRIZE SPEAKING CONTEST On March 23, the Junior Prize Speaking Contest was held at the Parish Hall of the Congregational Church. This year the boys were responsible for delivering speeches with a humorous theme and the girls, speeches with a serious or dramatic theme. The winners in their respective fields were Patri- cia Steel, “Sorry, Wrong Number,” and Brian Smith, “The Fatal Slide.” An innovation this year was the awarding of “Honorable Mention” prizes which were won by Anne Lie-Nielsen and Thomas Wilbur. Other participants were: Joseph Nuccio, Bette Lothrop, Roscoe McFarland, Susan Masalin, Linda La- Combe and Carolyn Jones. These students did an excellent job and deserve to be congratulated. The following week, the two winners, Patricia Steel and Brian Smith, took part in the Knox-Lincoln League finals. In competition with the other schools in the league our two representatives did very well. Brian won first place among the boys and Patricia Steel placed second among the girls. These two students also took part in the University of Maine Speech Festival and re- ceived “excellent” ratings by the judges. 30 THE MEGUNTICOOK -4 Row 1: Roberta Freeman, Barbara Pease, Bette Ronco, Ellen Flagg, Joan Gherardi, Jacque- line Young, Brenda Young, Audrey Simpson, Elinor Hardy.

LIBRARY In order for a high school to become accredited, it must have a library. Because of many generous contributions, the Camden High School library was opened to the students on December 9, 1960. The library has book shelves, constructed by student carpenters, and six study tables. There are twenty-one student librarians who assist the li- brarian, Mrs. Harold Mitchell. The library contains 2471 books; 209 cards have been issued to students, and 1449 books have been circulating since the opening of the library. This is an average of twenty-three books per day.

MAGAZINE DRIVE This year’s Curtis Campaign topped the two thousand dollar mark with total sales of $2,025.82. This netted $711.62 for Camden High School. For the fourth year in succession, the present Senior Class won the $50 prize. This award is given to the class having the highest dollar collection per student. Patricia Wadsworth was high salesman with total sales of $112.09. She, along with Spencer Dean, received a Curtis $100 Sales Club Pin. Spencer also became the proud owner of the stuffed dog, “Herman,” who was the mascot of the magazine drive. He received this award for being the high salesman in Miss Keating’s room, which averaged the most money per student. Twenty-six students, by selling either thirty dollars worth of magazines or ten subscriptions, were entitled to a trip to the Ice Capades in Bangor. They were accompanied by the managers and several members of the faculty. Miss Keating served as faculty advisor with Elinor Hardy as student man- ager. Barbara Prescott and Donald Callahan were assistant managers and Senior room captains. Other room captains were as follows: Juniors: Susan Masalin and Linda LaCombe: Sophomores: Carol Chapman, Jeffrey Wey- mouth, and Jessie Heal: Freshmen: Robert Waterman, Dennis McLain, and Marjorie Frost. 32 THE MEGUNTICOOK Row 1: Elinor Hardy, John Gillmor, Patricia Wadsworth.

They are as follows: Norman Beloin—High honors-mathematics, honors-total composite score. John Gillmor—High honors-mathematics and total composite score. Elinor Hardy—High honors-total composite score, honors-English. Jerry Littlefield—High honors-mathematics. Patricia Wadsworth—High honors-total composite score, honors-English. Karen Armstrong Honors-English. Joan Gherardi— Honors-English. Roger Moody—Honors-Mathematics. THE MEGUNTICOOK 33 DRIVER EDUCATION SHOP EXCHANGE PROGRAM By the beginning of this academic year, the school committees of Camden and Rockport had worked out arrangements for an educational exchange pro- gram beneficial to both schools. Briefly, students from Rockport High School, which does not have Indus- trial Arts, came to Camden High School each afternoon to participate in our Freshman shop program. Last fall there were six Rockport Freshmen who enrolled in the shop course. Beginning with the second semester, the Rock- port High School driver education instructor started an afternoon class at Camden High School. This is an addition to our own driver education pro- gram and allows us to offer driver education to more students. The exchange program has been worked out between the two school committees so that there is a mutual sharing of educational facilities at no ex- tra expense to either community. 34 THE MEGUNTICOOK DAR ELINOR HARDY BETTY CROCKER AND RURAL ELECTRIFICATION LOIS GOLDSCHMIDT DIRIGO STATE Roger Moody, Norman Beloin, Karen Armstrong, Robert Steel, Richard Moody.

BASEBALL In 1960 the Camden Mustangs posted a 6-3 league record and a 7-5 overall record. Because of this excellent record they gained second place in the Knox-Lincoln League. Beryl Leach acted as coach this season substituting for “Dool” Dailey, the usual coach, who was ill.

JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL The Junior Varsity squad became Knox-Lincoln champions this year under Coach Morton Strom with a league record of seven wins and one loss, which was to Waldoboro. The overall record (for the season) stands at ten wins and six losses. Two games were played against the Christian School at Glen Cove, which has recently formed its basketball team. Camden was the victor in both contests. One oddity of the season was that four games, those against Waldoboro, Union, the Christian School and Boothbay, were won in overtime.

VARSITY BASKETBALL In the 1960-1961 season the Mustangs recorded twelve wins and six losses. Only three of the losses, however, were in league competition. The team gained second place in the Knox-Lincoln league under coach Beryl Leach. Because Camden is now classified as a “large” school, the team and fans had to travel to Lewiston for the tournament game with North Yarmouth Academy. Although the Mustangs built up a lead in the first quarter, North Yarmouth overtook them in the second quarter and handed the team a defeat. However, their fans can look forward to next year because almost all the team returns. 42 THE MEGUNTICOOK WAYNE HANSEN HARLAN PIERSON paul McFarland RITCHIE ALLEN VARSITY BASKETBALL STATISTICS Players FG FTA FTM c e TP F Berry 41 55 27 49.1 109 61 Hansen 81 57 27 47.4 189 26 McFarland.

GIRLS’ BASKETBALL The 1960-61 girls basketball season proved to be one of the best com- petitive seasons to date. The crowning glory of the season was the skillful victories over Waldoboro and Thomaston to rate us second place in the Knox- Lincoln League. Special recognition goes to our fine guard section who saved many a game with their rebounding and intercepting skills. Under the guidance of Coach Torello the team this year recorded thirteen wins and lost only two games. Seniors who will be missed next year are co-captains Patricia Wadsworth and Trudy Weare, plus Brenda Young, Elaine Alley, and Mary Thomas. 44 THE MEGUNTICOOK NANCY BURKETT PAT WADSWORTH WILMA LEONARD TRUDY WEARE MARY CONNELL CINDY YOUNG GIRLS' BASKETBALL STATISTICS Players FG IF FTA FTM c c TP P.

The reason for this twitching was the Colby College scholarship for a deserving handi- capped person. Ever since Gary could remember he had wanted to be a doctor. Since he was the only child in the family, scholarship money for his education had been saved, but his money had all gone to help pay the medical bills after his accident. Since Gary lived in a town which might be called a distressed area, there was no money to be borrowed for scholarships. So his last chance was to get the Colby College scholarship. His appointment was for 9:30, Saturday morning, and as he entered the office he could hear that there were at least two other people ahead of him. After these two had left, he was called into the office. Gary went into the office with his Ger- man-shepherd dog, King. The man, who introduced himself as Dr. William Eddy, told Gary that he was the first blind per- son to be interviewed. The doctor asked Gary to tell him how he had lost his sight. Gary explained how he and some of his friends had tried to explode a fire- cracker in a glass bottle. When the fire- cracker had failed to go off, Gary had picked up the bottle and it had exploded. Gary told about the hospital, the ban- dages and the unsuccessful operation. Dr. Eddy was surprised at how well Gary had learned braille and the regular high school subjects in which he had been tutored until he was ready to re-enter public school in the eighth grade. Gary was proud of his record, for he had worked very hard to keep up his studies and had been rewarded by graduating salutatorian of his class. When the interview ended, Dr. Eddy thanked Gary for telling him his story. He was told that he would be informed if anything developed from his scholar- ship application. Each day Gary waited impatiently for the mail to see if there was anything from the college. As the weeks went by, Gary had about given up hope, but one after- noon Dr. Eddy himself came to call on Gary. He told Gary that the administra- tion board had voted to give him the scholarship on the basis of his courage and his drive to do well. Eric Hunter ’64 THE FACE OF A HERO The crowds cheered him, Their hero they made him, The angels proclaimed him, Champion of peace, oustanding man of history. Carefully I studied, observed his every feature. My idol, this image, I would imitate, I resolved. Suddenly, in observance I chanced To brush the mirror with my hand. How strange,” I reflected, “How changed,” I thought, As I removed the dust From the mirror before my face. John Hunter ’62 THE MEGUNTICOOK 47 COURAGE OF A TREE A lone tree against the winter sky Stands, with arms outstretched high. It seems that something must be there For it to reach up in the air. A monument surviving still, Through winter’s snow and icy chill, It stands, so very stanch and stout Waiting till the Sun comes out. When spring arriving brings warmth and light. The dead old tree will come to life. Sprouting twigs and leaves of green Brightning up a dreary scene. Birds will nest among its leaves While it blesses those winter eves That it stood through the cold, cold night. And did not yet give up the fight. Allison Jane Duncan '63 “LIFE” The word “life” is defined in the dic- tionary as “the union of soul and body.” Life is composed of many processes going on at the same time. The similar life pro- cesses take place in all living things; therefore, one might contemplate that all living beings are identical. This is, how- ever, untrue, for there are countless dif- ferences among living creatures. Although a lifetime is momentary in the endless span of time, each moment can be significant. Life success is deter- mined by the character and ambition of every individual. A person possessing mental stability and composure of mind can get along very well in the world. Nevertheless, the human race seems to enjoy quarrels and differences of opinions and is made happy only by hurting others. To me, the human race appears to be a huge group of puppets dangling from separate strings manipulated by their Creator-the Lord. These tedious puppets are all very conceited and try incessantly to become more important than any of their associates. Ignorant of the fact that their behavior is under observance, they delight in bickering and trying to fray their strings which bind them to the conformity of their daily routine. Some day the belligerent puppets will break their strings while quarrelling and all go in separate, obscure ways. Soon they will realize that without the gui- dance of their Divine Puppeteer only depression and unhappiness can follow. After these strings are broken, the count- less puppets will cause great havoc and chaos in the world, and lives will become insignificant. By Karen Armstrong ’61 TRANSITION The gusty wind now rocks the trees, Their branches being tcssed: The sun now sinks beneath the seas. And for the night is lost. The dark’ning shadows now do creep. And slowly they are making Prey of all, while the world does sleep. It’s domain now forsaking. The low-spread cloud a crown dees make For steeple, spire and tower; And the big church thy breath does take When striking every hour. A mist now covers pond and lake. Their crystal waters hiding. While fleeting clouds weird shadows make. Wand’rers homeward guiding. Paul McFarland. Jr. ’62 DISILLUSION What has happened to life? Is there anything beautiful, anything at all to en- joy? Was it only yesterday there was so much to look forward to? Now there is an agonizing emptiness, followed by what? Can, or should, life be carried on? Why did it have to happen? Why was it necessary to unveil the hopelessness, to smother the optimism of youth? What joy can there be now in simple, everyday occurrences? Will it ever be wonderful again to sit alone, just watch- ing and listening and noticing? Those feelings of awe over the future, of glori- ous uncertainty about what might hap- pen, are lost forever.

In driving rain or hot sun he works. He watches the bay with a knowing eye, and can usually tell wheth- er it will be calm or windy in the after- noon by looking at the water and sky in the morning. He is a friendly person even with strangers, but watches them with squinting eyes. During the months when he is haul- ing traps, he rises at five o’clock or there abouts and hauls till noon. At that time he usually is returning to the harbor where there are several customers wait- ing for him. He will help people launch boats or tell them where to go clamming. In short, he is one of the most interesting people I know. William Dvorak ’64 THE LEAF The leaves turn brown and come fluttering down And the world goes on as before; The frost in the fall brings beauty to all, But brings death to the leafs very core. The little leaf that has tailed in the sun That has worked and has slaved 'til death overcome— That gave beauty and color to the world it enjoyed, Has been working since time was begun. The leaf it seems keeps the world in the swing But is heralded not like the ctming of kings: It opens its folds at the first breath of spring. And devotes it’s whole life to the beauty it brings. It works very hard throughout all the season ‘Til it curls and it dies without any reason: Then the leaves turn brown and come fluttering down. And the world goes on as before.
