GATHERER STAFF In this, the fifty-first anniversary of the g'Gatherer, we, the Gatherer Staff, have tried to present a true and interesting picture of our school life. We hope that this 1953 Gatherer', will be a valuable souvenir dur- ing our moments of reminiscence in later lifq In our endeavor to reach this goal, we have incorporated a few new ideas into the general scheme of the book, in order to make it a more interesting account as well as one of lasting interest. Wie have alloted to each class an illustra- ted section, and a chronological history by which we hope to make our record a more complete one. And there you have the Gatherer of 1953 as the perhaps too proud editors see it. We have worked for completeness, compact- ness, and interest. Members of the staff are as follows: Edi- tor-in-Chief, Virginia Billings, Assistant Edi- tors, Joan Haskell, and Carol Woodman, Business Managers, Norwood Greenlaw and Burt Weed, Activities Editor, Rhea Conaryg Sports Editors, Regina Billings and Barbara Perez. We wish to express our sincere thanks to the townspeople for their support of the book, and to Mr. George Larlee for Hkeeping the ball rolling. F culy Principal Roger W. Davis Lucille' I..

We were seventh graders then and very grown up. Eleven in number and high in spirit, we could just wait until the day would come when we would be freshman, and two years later that day came. When starting this long pull, our num- bers decreased. Pearl Hardy, Clyde Haskell, and Larry Judkins left us. Our teachers were Eldrige Elkhorn, Joyce Webster, Margaret Eaton, Charlene Johnson, and Mr. and Mrs. Matheson. Our advisor for our four years of high school was to be Mrs. Mathe- son. A special '5party was given in our hon- or at the Morey Farm. The traditional Freshmen Reception. With shaking knees, we arrived in our curious outfits to be initia- ted. It wasn't half as bad as we had antici- pated. At that time we became really mem- bers of Deer Isle High School. Soon we began appreciating the finer things of life and tried our hand at writing short poems.Mrs. Mathe- son submitted some of our poetry to a state contest where four of us, Virginia Billings, Rhea Conary, Barbara Perez and Regina Billings, won prizes. We started our sophomore year with a bang, giving a party for the new candi- dates. We had lost a valuable member of our class, Franklin Haskell, but we still kept up the paces of school life. We published our special news paper, the Sophomore News , in which we had features, sports columns, and news articles. The only change in the faculty this year was the replacement of Miss Joyce Webster by Miss Alice Plevock, We looked eagerly forward to the annual School Fair, and felt very proud and happy when our booth won third prize. When starting our junior year, our num- ber had sadly shrunk again. Philip Hall left us and before the end of the year George 'Haskell left. There were only five of us now to tackle whatever problems or entertain- ments we had. It was going to take work and school spirit, something which we like to think we have. Our elaborately-scalloped booth at the fair won second prize, we sold white elephants. There was a minstrel show given, under the direction of Miss Plevock, in which all of our class took part. Virginia Billings, Barbara Perez, and Sonny Green- law were endmen. Regina Billings was Mr. Interlocutor, and the Deer Isle Seranaders, the four junior girls, sang two numbers. Mr. Blanchard replaced Mrs. johnson on the faculty as commercial teacher and Mr. Davis became our new coach and junior high teacher, replacing Mr. Elkhorn, now in the army Returning as seniors, we found that the Wool had taken a change for the bettc The Main Room was repainted and new storm windows were put on. The downstairs rooms were also redecorated. More changes in the faculty took place. Mr. Douglas Blanchard was replaced by Mr. George Lar- lee, and Miss Alice Plevock, by Miss Lucille Hughes. Our booth at the fair won first prize this year, with its brightly-colored scenes and the hand-drawn deer of the front. Enclosed herein are the remaining ac- counts of our final year. We, as seniors, look back on our years to- gether at Deer Isle High School as one of the happiest times of our lives. Although we are glad that the long pull is over, we will never forget that feeling of oneness that We had all through our years at school.

Shortly after Christmas, Vivian Weed left, reducing our number to four. This year at the annual fair, we sold white elephants, with cider as a side line. We also sold a wide selection of pocket-books. We realized 32200. Our V-shaped booth, in the typically fem- inine colors of pink and white, was decora- ted to resemble a dressing table. On the table were a mirror and lipstick, which did much to help carry out this motif. For this attractive booth, we were awarded second prize, All the members of our class are out for some sport. The girls favor basketball, while Raymond Haskell, our only boy, leans to- ward baseball. Carol Woodman was a mem- ber of the cast of the Senior Play, The Case of the Missing Heirs. Joan Haskell and Carol Woodman are going to be in a one- act play on Town Meeting night. The junior class had charge of the annual Christmas program. Santa Claus came to visit the high school and helped distribute gifts. Miss Hughes gave us a few selections on the piano, and we all sang Christmas songs. Refreshments of ice cream, cake and packets of candy were served. A good time was enjoyed by all. SOPHOMORE CLASS Class of 1955 President Pearl Eaton Vice-president Inez Billings Secretary Rosalyn Haskell Treasurer Vaughn Joyce Class Advisor: Mr. Matheson Class Colors: Green and White The sophomore class started this year with fifteen members. Mr. Matheson became our advisor. We were hosts at the annual freshmen re- ception held at Howard's Beach in Sunset. The freshmen soon found out that we had many exciting stunts in store for them. The stunt that kept everyone in stitches was the step ladder and egg stunt, performed by Barbara Eaton and Nancy Colwell. Refresh- ments were served after the stunts. A birth- day cake was presented to Mr. Matheson. We sold candy at the school fair, making S19.00. The booth was a candy shop, decor- ated in green and white crepe paper with fancy candy boxes. We are especially proud of our record in sports this year. Pearl Eaton, Vaughn Joyce, Freddy Brewster, Robert Poitras, Randall Haskell, and Burt Weed are on the basket- ball and baseball squad. In October, when a group of students from the high school made a trip to New York, several of our members were able to go. Only one of our members got lost. One morning Robert Poitras and his girl friend suddenly found themselves on a trolley car, not knowing where they were going. When the first stop came, they got off, and Bobby guided his Juliet safely back to the hotel. We have had a very active year, and hope to contribute much in our remaining years of high school, SOPHOMORE CLASS EE First row. lm-ft to right: P. Haskell, P. Knight, P. Eaton, R. Haskell, I.

We were cor- dially received by the sophomores who gave us a bang-up initiation at Sylvia Howard's Beach on October 9th. After the stunts had been performed, everyone was well fed by their hosts, as hot dogs, soda, and cupcakes were devoured by the ton. Then we piled into the cars and went home, somewhat worse for the wear but full-fledged members of Deer Isle High School. Priscilla Powers was here for the reception but soon after, she left to live in Connecticut. At the school fair, the freshmen chose vegetables and canned foods to sell at their booth. A Halloween theme was chosen. A large, orange pumpkin entirely covered the front of the booth and a white picket fence surrounded the rest of the table. We won third prize for our efforts and cleared 83265. The last part of October was spent pre- paring for the trip to New York. A few of our members went, and our class advisor, Mrs. Eaton, went as a chaperone. We will never forget the wonderful time we had. The girls had a grand time shopping in the big stores, and the boys must have bought oceans of novelties. All of us are looking for- ward to going again. Special praise should be paid to Dicky Colwell who has shown exceptional skill on the basketball floor. He has improved much since last year and is now on the first team. Nancy Colwell, Mary Hardy, Edna Eaton, and June Perez are out for girls' basketball. Barbara Eaton is an efficient manager.

Our number was slightly decreased when Marlene Eaton, Wiley Billings, and Arthur Poitras left us, and one of our mem- members, Duane Dowe, was taken by death. We welcomed a new member, Lyle Meyer, from Washington, D. C. There are many students from our num- bers participating in junior high basketball, baseball, softball, and cheerleading this year. The boys have combined with the fifth and sixth grade students to form several basket- ball teams and will hold a series of games with one another. They had a social at the grade school in November to earn money to purchase uniforms for their teams. The Sun- set Devils have gray shirts with a red devil on them, and red shorts, the North Deer Isle Bulldogs have white shirts with blue bulldogs, and blue shorts, the South Deer Isle Tigers have blue shirts with a yellow tiger, and blue shorts 5 and the Harbor Wild- cats have red shirts with white wildcats, and red shorts.

A variety show was held at the elementary school by the students from grades 4- to 8, with some assistance from high school stu- dents. The entertainments were planned by Miss Hughes, and Mr. Page gave freely of his talents as Master of Ceremonies. Some of the specialties on the program were tap dancing, baton-twirling, a short skit, and the t WHO' usual singing and piano playing. The Ele- mentary Orchestra concluded the evening s program with several numbers. After the entertainment, sandwiches and punch were served, and dancing was enjoyed for a short while, The junior high presented a one-act com- edy play entitled aLet's Make Up. We are all looking forward to becoming part of the high school. S WHO Prettiest Hair ........ Prettiest Smile .... Cutest Girl ........... Handsoxnest Boy . .... Prettiest Girl .........

As usual, members of the club act as librarians during their study per- iods. These librarians keep the books in order and the shelves and table neat. As president, Barbara Eaton, in addition to her other duties, has had charge of catalog- ing all new books. Available on the table at all times have been a number of different well-known magazines and a daily newspaper. The libra- ry table facilities are available to honor-roll students at all times, and to everyone during the afternoon. The books and magazines may be used for entertainment purposes or for special outside work by all students and memn bers of the faculty. A special project of the Library Club this year was selling candy and soda at the home basketball games. The money earned went toward the purchase of new books for the library. With a library of approximately 1100 books, the club members are still keeping abreast of the best-seller list. This year the Library Club has purchased the following books: The Old Man and the Sea Giantg The Silver Chaliceg Hunter, You, The jury: Nature Atlas of Americag The Pink House: Duveeng Historical Sketch of the Town of Deer Isle, Maine, and has acquired The En- cyclopedia Americanna. Approximately twenty-five more books will be added before the end of the year. THE COMMERCIAL CLUB On December 18, 1952, a Commercial Club was organized under the direction of Mr. Larlee. At our second meeting it was decided to sell refreshments at the junior high basketball games, the proceeds of which would go into the treasury. A social will be leld sometime in March with a dance fol- lowing. A special project of our Club has been to Hbeautifyn the commercial room. Thus far, lit has been painted in attractive yellow and green, and the black boards have been painted green. New shade curtains have bien added. A series of formal tea parties mill be held throughout the year. Mr. Davis fin eighth grade Englishj explaining: We had drunk, and we had sung.

Something different was tried this year, when a Music Committee was chosen. The ofhcers are as follows: President, Regina Billings: Vice-President, Virginia Billings, Librarian, Barbara Perez. Those taking music were divided into two groups, namely, the junior high chorus and the senior high chorus, each group meeting selected as accompanist for the senior high chorus, and Miss Annette Shepard, for the junior high. A total of 72 members partici- pated in this year's music program. On December 19, the combined choruses presented a short program at the annual Christmas Party. Among the selections ren- dered were: O Holy Night, O Come Emanuel, '4White Christmas, Winter Wonderland, and several other well known Christmas carols. Soloists were: Miss Lucille Hughes, Joan Haskell, and Virginia Billings g Virginia was also the accompanist. The first public performance of the year was a variety show presented by the com- bined Deer Isle High School and elementary school on January 20. Those taking part from the high school were: Virginia Billings, Rhea Conary, Barbara Perez, Charlotte Carter, Estelle Conary, Audrey Eaton, Carley Tor- rey, Deanna Ellis, and Barbara Eaton.

SENIOR PLAY The Case of the Missing Heirsn was pre- sented at the Town Hall on November 26, 1952. The audience received many a thrill and chill as the house keeper, Mrs. Kite, and the mysterious 5'Phantom tried many an evil scheme to get the family fortune in the deceased XN'entz's,, will. Bruiser, a body guard, Mrs. Allerdyee Beeman, and her silly daughter. Nlaybelle, supplied the much needed comedy alter the tense scenes. The play was very ably directed by Mrs. Nlargaret Eaton, who was presented with gifts during the play by Norwood Greenlaw. Dancing and singing between the acts was generously provided by some of the grade school students. A short Latin play was pre- sented by the Latin Club, under the direction of Mrs. Matheson.

THE FRESHMAN LATIN CLUB This year's freshman Latin class decided to organize a Latin Club for the purpose of promoting better understanding of Roman customs and culture. Janet Snowden was elected presidentg Nancy Colwell, vice-presidentg June Perez, secretary g and Barbara Eaton, treasurer. Joanne Davis and Jerome Brewster served on the program committee. The first activity of the club was the pro- duction of a short play, which was given between the acts of the senior play on No- vember 26. Meetings have been planned about once a month and programs have often been based on holidays during the month. The Decem- ber meeting was combined with a Christmas party. Each member answered roll call by giving a Christmas greeting in Latin. After reports on the Saturnalia, the Roman Christ- mas, ice cream and brownies were served by Mrs. Matheson. Games were played and each received a Christmas card with the message in Latin. Everyone enjoyed trans- lating the verses.

'iLet,s Make Upf, presented by the seventh and eighth grade players, was an excellent take-off on girls who do their primping in public. The two boys involved fix this by shaving in public. The exasperated girls finally give in and it is mutually agreed that there will be no more primping by either. The cast was as follows: Marilyn Leonard ............. ........

It told of a frivolous young girl, Irma, and her liking for money. She tried every way to squeeze money out of her sister. Her sister's room- mate was to have a new coat and give her old one to a little girl, but Irma managed to get that money too, and the same old coat had to go for another year.

A wise old grand- mother, her daughter, middle aged, but still moonstruckg and her granddaughter, young and very much in love. The story shows how the granddaughter changes from a starry-eyed miss to a mature-minded woman through a broken love affair, the child of the village being brought in to emphasize the fact. The moral of the story: HIt is better to eat gray bread in your youth than in your old age. The cast was as follows: Riga ............. ............... ...... R e gina Haskell Solda ....... .....

It was spon- sored by the senior girls for the members of the boys' basketball team, in honor of their highly successful season. Refreshments of sandwiches, soda, and cake were sold. Special congratulatory cakes were presented to the Deer Isle boys and Coach Davis. JUNIOR PROM A Junior Prom was held at the Town Hall May 9, 1952. The hall was attractively decor- ated in pink and white crepe paper, with pastel balloons suspended in the center under a fancy center piece. Fir boughs were put around the stage. The reception line lasted from eight until nine, when the dancing be- gan. Cooksonls orchestra was engaged for the occasion. Members of the receiving line were the members of the school board and their wives, the faculty, the parents of the juniors, and the juniors with their escorts. The grand march was led by Virginia Bill- ings and James Brewster. The sophomores sold refreshments. The ushers were some of the older girls. It was the first Junior Prom held for some years at Deer Isle. NEW YORK TRIP On October 29, thirteen students of Deer Isle High School left by car for Belfast, and the bus that would take them to New York City. After a sleepless but fun-filled night, we arrived in New York. After eating breakfast, we went to the Belvedere Hotel. When We had rested and eaten our dinner, we went to airadio studio to see the Gary Moore Show being televised. We were all eager to see the THE GATHERER 23 Empire State Building, so we made that our next stop. Amid the confusion, we somehow managed to get a few pictures taken, and, as many of us will probably never see it again, the pictures will serve as reminders. Most of us went to an Oriental restaurant, the China Dor, for dinner. The food was delicious and new to most of us. That evening, we went to the Roxie to see a movie, The Snowx of Kilimanjaro. It was 1:30 when we got to sleep, but we thought our First day in New York was worth the wear and tear. The next morning, we arose early in order to start our tour of the United Slater. You would have thought, with our arms loaded down with souvenirs, that were just back from a tour. Since the boat was leaving for Europe in a few hours, we were left to explore the ship by ourselves. We toured the state- rooms, the gymnasium, the drawing room, the dining room, the swimming pool, and all the decks--everything but the engine room. We ate lunch, and then continued our sight-see- ing by visiting the museums. At 6:00, we were waiting to take the train to Scarsdale, Betsy Clavel's home. After being served a delicious supper by Mrs. Clavel, we attended many Halloween parties. At 11:00, Mr. Cla- vel loaded the eleven of us into his car, and drove us around to see the city by night. We saw the Brooklyn Bridge, the George Wash- ington Bridge, Chinatown, Rockefeller Cen- ter, and by a little fibbing, we even got into the Waldorf Astoria. By 2:00, we were back at the hotel and very tired. Saturday morning, we explored the Bronx Zoo. After eating our lunch, we took the ferry to Bedloe's Island to see the Statue of Liberty. It was a little foggy, but we man- aged to get a good view of it. Around 3:00, we went back to New York City to go shop- ping. The girls went by themselves, and got a little tangled up in their directions, but managed to get back to the hotel an hour and a half late. That night we saw a basketball game at Madison Square Garden. The fea- ture attraction was the game between the Globetrotters and the Baltimore Bullets. A few of us wanted to go to church, so we chose St. Patrick's Cathedral. This church is the most beautiful one I have ever seen. It is built after the Gothic style, and has a lovely rose window. After church, we walked over to Rockefeller Center to watch the skaters. We then returned to the hotel, packed our suitcases, and checked out. By 4:30, we were on the bus, headed for home. At Boston, we stopped to change buses, and discovered that the bus had broken down, and we would have to wait awhile. At 7:00, the next morning, we pulled into Belfast, where we were met by Mrs. Colwell, and Mrs. Fulton Weed. We arrived at Deer Isle at 8:30, just in time for school, but were excused for the day. It was a very strenuous trip, but one will never forget. This is one of the many experiences that go to make our four years at Deer Isle High School the most enjoyable of our lives.

We played with Stonington, Sullivan, Penobscot, and Winter Harbor. The games with Ston- ington and Sullivan were close and exciting. Our two losses were suffered at the hands of Sullivan. At the end of the season, we stood in second place in the league, and won a baseball trophy. Jerry Hutchinson and Ray- mond Haskell were the two reliable pitch- ers, winning three games each. Jerry Hutch- fielder, Jimmy Brewster. With the opening of the season, we found that we had gained john Snowden, Willard Knight, and Clifford Quinn. Playing only four games this fall, we split with Stonington and Sumner. The only change in the line-up showed Dicky Colwell and Raymond Haskell sharing pitching hon- ors. Dicky showed himself to be a promising young pitcher when he pitched a fine win- ning game against our old rivals, Stonington.

The members of the squad are as follows: Marilyn Damon, Patty Spofford, Barbara Perez, Carol Woodman, and head cheer- leader, Virgina Billings. As the cheerleaders have been sharing the boys' triumph this season, victory cheers have become a constant demand. Red Hot rings among the rafters at every game, and ujump up and S'No Cheer became increasingly popular at every game. BASEBALL First row: V. -Ioyre. Sc-uoml raw. li-ft to right: VV. Knight. C.

One member of each class was chosen, and the officers were elected as fol- lows: president, Regina Billings 5 vice-presi- dent, Barbara Perez 3 secretary, Marilyn Da- mon, treasurer, Carol Woodman. When winter days began creeping up, there was rnuch excitement concerning bas- ketball. Our girls were in fine shape, and their spirits were high. But when the season drew nearer, the spirits began to break. We weren't sure of a coach. The matter was de- liberated, but no one was really enthusiastic over the job. Finally, Mrs. Brewster came to our rescue, and with Joan Robbins'es help, we were encouraged and spurred through a fairly successful season. We practiced, we drilled, and finally came to the first game. We were on our own floor, and we played Brooklin. Our girls easily won, 31-21, but on the return, it wasn't so easy. At the half we were leading 22-16, but in the end we lost 34-36. Patty Spofford and Barbara Perez fouled out. We split our games with Brooksville, also. At Brooksville, we lost 25-44, but we came through with flying colors at home with, 37- 29. Sylvia Howard fouled out. Our most exciting games are always the pair with Stonington. We anticipated a terri- ble beating, but we didn't do so badly after all. At Stonington, we were beaten, 18-39, and at home, we were downed 23-49. Patty Spofford fouled out. We enjoyed bothi games and look forward to playing them next year. One of the most enjoyable times of the sea- son was the Islesboro trip. This is our only overnighter, and, therefore, was even greater fun. We arrived in time for dinner, Saturday evening, went to the game, and beat them 25-13. Barbara Perez fouled out. After the game, we devoured piles of food, and we udidnlt get home until morning. We left Islesboro in the morning, catching the eight o'clock ferry, and stopped in Belfast for a lunch. We stopped again in Bucksport and a few of us went to the Elm Street Church. When we arrived home, most of us were all- in. Their trip here was as enjoyable for us as the trip we made over there. We were again the victors 38-25. When we played Penobscot here, we won 41-14, and on their own Hoor, we won again, 69-36. We only played Castine once, and they beat us, 29-33. It was a heartbreak for us, because of the closeness of the score. So closed a more than fair season for us. As for softball, we have done very little. Practices were held, but no games were played and no equipment purchased. Golf took a backseat this fall, giving way to tennis. We had no real practices, but we made a court and began leveling it. Perhaps another year, we can play against other schools. We have hopes. F .G. F. Pts.

The boys came out in first place in league standings, with a record of 9 wins and 0 defeats. This year, also, the boys made application, and were admitted, to the tournament in Bangor. This is the first team from the Is- land that had had this honor. The boys started off their 1952-53 sea- son with two things in their favor. They had their last year's coach, Roger Davis, and they had a group of boys who were willing to get in there and fight with all they had for Deer Isle High. The team was hit hard by last year's loss of players. Jerauld Hutchinson, Murray Barbour, and James Brewster were lost by graduation. Richard Colwell, Robert Poitras, and Randall Haskell soon filled these vacan- cies. On December 1, the Deer Isle boys plunged into a pattern which has won them the league championship. Our first game with Ellsworth Freshmen, on our home floor, gave a bird's eye view of what the boys would do in the future. The teams battled up and down the floor, until at the final buzzer, the scores read 39-36 for Deer Isle. Pearl Eaton led off the season's scoring with 14 points. In the next game, we easily defeated the Brooklin five, 65-18. Pearl and Dicky racked up 22 and 17 respectively. On December 9, a bus load of excited kids set out for Brooksville, our first away game. Dicky chased our fears away by scraping up 15 points, while Sonny, our cool-headed guard, pushed through 14 points. On December 12, we met our old rivals, Stonington, on their floor. This game proved to the spectators that Deer Isle was going to be a hard team to beat this season. Entering the hall with many misgivings, we sweat blood, as we knew this game would be a close one. At the end of the first quarter, the score read 9-8 for our boys. Deer Isle pulled ahead a little during the second quar- ter, but the score-22-16-was still too close for comfort. The boys kept on fighting, as Randy, Sonny, and Freddy fouled out. Dick had four fouls on him, but in the traditional way, our boys broke through to beat a path to victory, with the Hnal score, 48-43. Col- well led the scoring Islander's with 16 points, and Griffin set the pace for Stoning- ton with 12 points. On December 13, the team took up their suitcases and started off for Old Faithful, the bus, to Islesboro. We arrived just at supper time. The boy's game created much excitement and furor. Some of our boys found Islesboro wood quite hard, but, de- spite all difificulties, rose to the occasion by redoubling their victorious efforts. Even af- ter our able guard, Sonny, was disabled tem- porarily, our boys could not be stopped, and swept on, until, at the final bell, the score read 52-36 in our favor. Our next victims were Penobscot. On our own floor, our boys were completely at ease, and outdid themselves. Colwell fanned the flames of victory with 22 points, a n d Vaughn, our long - range sharp - shooter, stacked up 17 points. The next game was with Castine. As we set out, we wondered if it would be the tra- ditional morning hours and freezing weather when we would again cross the bridge. Fate worked in reverse this time, as we were late in arriving. Our boys, nevertheless, had an easy victory. The second team played their THE GATHERER 31- first half-game of the season. Freddy Brew- ster led the scoring fiends with 12 points, while Eaton and Colwell followed with 11 points each. Our next game was met with many mis- givings, both before and after. At the hands of East Corinth, a non-league member, we met our first and only defeat of the season. At the end of the first quarter, there was only 5 points difference in the score, and we were all sitting on needles. But soon our boys began piling up fouls. Pearl fouled out in the third quarter and Vaughn had four on him. But they still fought back. At the final bell, despite the shooting efforts of Freddy Brewster, the score stood 70-36 in favor of East Corinth. East Corinth, our welcomed guests, had a speedy, well-drilled team. They had a big advantage by starring a 6'5 center, who scored 33 points. This game was good for any overconfidence our boys might have had. But the boys didn't let this get under their skin. They charged back up the line, out- scoring the Brooklin squad, 73-31. Our next game, with Stonington here, was one of the best played of the season. The first quarter was outstanding. Deer Isle held Stonington to nine points, while they, them- selves, slipped through 22 points. The next two quarters were evenly matched, each team hitting the board for 10 points. In the last quarter, our boys rallied and gained 14 points, while Stonington was allowed to sink only fouribaskets. Our sharp-shooter of the evening, Freddy Brewster, fouled out in the last quarter, leaving us high and dry in sus- pense, but two of Stonington's hoopsters, Jimmy Nevells and Lyle Griffin, promptly followed suit. The Hnal score stood, 49-38, in our favor. Next, the boys packed their sneakers, and rode off to Ellsworth, leaving the disap- pointed girls behind. We held the Ellsworth Freshmen 9-8 at the end of the first quarter. They were using an all-court press, trying to outrun Deer Isle. But our boys, not easily winded, despite the long floor, led at the half, 31-20. Ellsworth used up many sets of five, trying to wear out the boys, but to no avail, as the score-board read 56-46 at the final buzzer. Colwell proved his versatility by hitting the 20 point line, and Joyce stacked up 10. The Brooksville game went down per sche- dule, with Freddy Brewster leading the bas- keteers with 21 points. Next, we were hosts to some of the best sports we have met this season, the Winter- port boys. This game was one of the most thrilling battles of the season. The Deer Isle boys entered this game with too much confi- dence, and found out that Winterport would give them a Herce run for their money. At the half, we led by only 2 points. In the last half of the game, our boys all had three per- sonals. The game was won by fouls com- mitted on Freddy and Pearl. The final score stood 48-45. On January 27, we played overnight inn- keepers to the Islesboro Sportsmen. Although Islesboro was told to run up as large a score az possible, we held them to 32 points, while Dicky ran wild and scorched the net with 23 points. Joyce and Brewster followed suit with ll and 10 respectively. Our next trip, being the last for our play- making guard, Sonny Greenlaw, the boys put on the steam, and hit the Penobscot backboard with 87 points. Vaughn Joyce took his hawk-eyes out of his pocket, and flung in 24 points from far out, being ex- celled only by Freddy Brewster, who was hot with 27 points. Rounding out the league season with 9 brought to an end our highly successful Saturday night was a great night for Deer ted that We would be 32 THE GATHERER wins and no defeats, we set our next goal for the H.C.S.S.A. Tournament Championship. The tournament was to be held in Stonington this year. We met Stockton Springs, for the first time, Monday, February 16. Meeting the new team with anticipation, our boys gave the rivals no time to get under their skin. Dicky's sensational lay-up style paid off in 25 points, while Vaughn swished the net for 13 points. The final score registered 63-34 in favor of our spark-plugs. Our next game was a thriller. Even though the Island-Penobscot fans willed us to defeat, our snappy five led the twelve points at the end of the Hrst quarter. At that time the hall was in an uproar. Freddy Brewster had just sunk a sensational long shot from three- fourths down the floor, as the buzzer rang for the quarter. At the end of the next quarter, though, there was no room for mirth. Pen- obscot had crawled up on us, and we were tied at 30 points. But this didn't stop our boys. After their talk with Coach Davis, they bounded onto the floor with new confidence. From then on, we forgot to be scared. The game was all Deer Isle'sg as the clock ticked away the last second, the score stood 63-42 for Deer Isle. Sonny and Freddy tied for top honors with 15 points, while Moon and York slapped the cords for Penobscot with 17 and 12 respectively. Much excitement remained, because Saturday night, we would play Ston- ington for the league championship. Isle. just before the championship game, we learned that our boys had placed sixth in the Eastern Maine Small School's Tourna- ment, to be held in Bangor, February 26. Our rivals at that time would be Clinton. During the championship game, while the fans went slowly mad, the boys showed ex- cellent self-control by their calmness in set- ting up their plays and carrying them out. The two teams were too evenly matched for comfort. At the end of the first quarter, the score was tied at 17. The boys pulled away with all their might, but were not able to get more than a five point lead at any time. At the half, we led by only two points, but in the third quarter, we took a turn for the worse g and, as the buzzer rang, we were 3 points behind. During this quarter, every- one's ulcers began kicking up, and gray hairs appeared at the temples. Both teams matched baskets until the last minute of the game, when Sonny and Pearl fouled out. We were greatly relieved when Lyle Griffin and Ger- ald Robbins, followed suit. With one minute to play, Deer Isle was trailing by 3 points, when Dicky Colwell calmly stepped up to the line, and dropped in two foul shots. Fred- dy captured the ball next for Deer Isle, and made a beautiful lay-up shot, puting us one point in the lead. With one second to play, a foul was committed on Bobby Poitras, and he neatly sewed up the game by slipping through his final shot. The buzzer rang only a split-second afterwards, followed by cheers and yelling by Deer Isle fans, as our cham- pions walked coolly off the floor. This league season. On February 26, the Deer Isle boys proud- ly stepped onto the Bangor Auditorium floor. Having heard much shooter, Bobby Jones, be greatly out-classed. about the state-foul our boys expected to Everyone else expec- c'Clinton's Goats. But we almost pulled the upset of the tourna- ment. During the first quarter, our boys were so nervous, they didnit do much, but at the half, we had staged a comeback, leading by 7 points at the bell. Dicky Colwell was taken out temporarily because of his four fouls, but we still kept our heads above water by one point at the end of the third quarter. Colwell was put back in for the fourth quar- ter, and we forged ahead until the last BOYS, BASKETBALL QU-ft to right: R. lluskc-ll. P. Eaton. B. Weed, R. Poitras, Grecnlaw, V. Joycc, R.

Playing three minutes overtime, everyone was madly attempting baskets. With one minute left to play, Clin- ton again froze the ball. With only seconds to play, Bobby Jones shot from outside, and sunk the winning basket for Clinton. Although, we didn't win the game, we are quite proud to think that we did as well as we did, disproving the opinion, that we were the goats for the tournament. VVe are very proud of our outstanding season, and are confident that for years to come, we will be the champs SEASON'S SCORES IN BASKETBALL Ellsworth JV's Brooklin i5'Brooksville 'Stonington Penobscot 'Castine 'Islesboro Stonington 5Ellsworth JV,s Brooksville Winterport Islesboro Penobscot 'HStockt0n 4HfPenobscot '35'4 Stonington 'f'H'Clinton 5'Games away 36 18 35 43 39 23 36 38 46 49 45 32 72 34 42 48 46 'HStonington tournament 'H'1fBangor tournament STATISTICS F.G.

Cold moonbeams revealed the bony arms of leafless trees reaching into the night, drawing him on. The mist, mingled with the sweat or blood on his hands and face, fell in drops on his new red shirt now torn at the shoulder. How had he become so lost? He had gone only a little way off the road. He was lost. He was consoled only by the fact that being lost was better than being back there. With each step the sound seemed to echo as though footsteps were following him. Silence bore down on him, and he hated it. No sounds, save that of his feet seeking a way from these darkened woods. His legs and feet felt numb with weariness. Sinking onto a hollow log, he tried to rest a little. He was unbearably hungry, and thirsty. This was the fourth day without food and water. His head began to feel heavy, his eyes closed half way, and he fell asleep. The sun shone on his face, and he awak- ened with a sense of well being. Suddenly he remembered. They must still be searching for him. The nightmare started all over again. Panic seized him, and he started to run, jumping over the dead, rotted logs, with briars tearing at his bleeding, swollen body. A sharp pain shot through his left arm. A giant, knife-like briar had thrust its point- ed head into the soft skin. He tried twice be- fore he could pull the briar out. Thick, red deep, twisted punc- the sleeve frofn' his blood oozed from the ture. Quickly he tore shirt and bandaged his arm with it. Trying to hold his arm still, he stumbled on, half running, half walking. He caught sight of a pheasant Houndering around on one leg. Using his good arm, he made a grab for her, but she crawled out of reach. At the second try, he lunged, grabbing her by one wing. Immediately he began tearing off the outer skin and feathers. When he finished, he bit into the warm raw meat. Blood trick- led down over his hands, but he paid no heed. The grisly flesh tasted good to a man who had had nothing to eat for five days. After finishing his meal, he began to feel a little stronger, but his arm felt all hot and fiery. He decided to take the bandage off. There they were. The red streaks of blood poisoning. Hope left him. His mind seemed to snap. Blood chilling screams issued from his parched throat, filling the air. No one heard but the dead, rotted logs. Again he started running like a madman. The swinging of his arm made the pain worse, but he paid no attention. He would run till he dropped dead! In the distance he caught sight of a dark shape hidden almost wholly by the trees. He headed toward it. It was an old decayed house ready to collapse. He rushed from broken window to warped door, trying to find someone. Around the back of the house was an old fallen-in well. He leaned in over the side, but he couldn't quite reach. His throat ached for the taste of the cool, fresh water. He rose and went back to the house, searching desperately for some kind of buck- et. The search was almost in vain, but going back to the well, he spotted an old rusty bucket with a rope tied to it, almost com- pletely covered by the deep grass. Grabbing the rope, he went back to the well. Soon he would be able to drink the cool water, and soothe his burning throat. He could soak his arm too. It might help it, and at least stop the terrible aching. He leaned over the side once more and sank the bucket. When it was full he started pulling it upflt was hard labor trying to pull with his sore arm, but it didn't matter. The only thing was to get the water. He had the bucket almost to the top when the rotted rope broke. The bucket plunged beneath the surface of the dark cool water and was gone. THE GATHERER 37 In despair, he went back to the house and slumped down on the rotted steps. His eyes caught sight of something lying in the grass-- a marker with the name 'SKeller engraved on it. The name was strangely familiar. Darkness came quickly, and the man slept. At dawn he was awakened with a throbbing in his arm. It was swollen to three times the size of the other. Red streaks ran over the tight Hesh and up into the arm pit. He was so weak he could hardly stand. Staggering down the steps, he started on. They must not find him. At the end of the old unused walk he fell. The tall grass com- pletely covered him. A day later the searchers from the state prison came upon him. Funny coincidence. Dick Keller was born here. The old home- stead is deserted, yet he came here to die. Rhea Conary '53 WARNING Blackness hangs beneath the starless sky. No man shall tell of it, for none shall live. And as the waning moon looms slowly in the night, the horror here will haunt the heart and fill the mind with gloom. A great horned owl swoops low, a ghostly gossamer, its death claws strangling all unsuspecting things. Too late we wake and find the silent dread has come to grasp us in its claws of death, of certain doom. Barbara Perez '53 PARTY I Trees in a snow storm are Cinderellas, Donning white gowns for the ball. Rhea Conary '53 ' WINTER Trees, white with snow, are candles on a marshmallow cake. Regina Billings '53 OXN HIGH The sky is a black tablecloth, ' The stars are crumbs, The moon is a cookie, left untouched. Norwood Greenlaw '53 FORECAST Pushing his battered hat back upon his head, He leans against the plow 3 Blue eyes scan the horizon, 'gRain tomorrow, he says to himself. His long legs move restlessly, His work-calloused hands tightened on the plow handles, Horse, man, and nature work as one. Virginia Billings WOODS IN WINTER Deep now in the snow the forest lies, All beautiful and silent white, Holding the color of the skies Mute miracle of yesternight. And there in the shade of icy rocks, Half covered now with hills of snow, There is a spot where a thirsty fox Drank from his prey an hour ago. The sun will shine the stains away, The earth will swallow up the red, Winter has come to the woods today, But no one knows where peace has fled.
