THE GATHERER In view of the small number in the senior class this year, it was decided to produce The Galherer as a school, instead of a class project. This, the thirty-sixth edition of our yearbook, is the result. Carol Woodman and Joan Haskell have served as co-editors-in-chief. Burt Weed, business manager, assisted by Richard Col- well, has been responsible for securing ad- vertising. As a result of our endeavor to insure a sound hnancial set-up, a pre-publi- cation sales campaign was carried on under the direction of Randall Haskell, circulation manager. His assistant has been Vaughn Joyce. Other members of the stall' are as follows: Class Editors, Sylvia Howard, Janet Snowden. Beatrice Pickering, Audrey Eaton, and Beverly Eaton. Boys' Sports. Barbara Eaton. Girls' Sports, Nancy Colwell. Alumni and Exchange Editor, Pauline Knight. Activities, Priscilla Powers, Velma Rob- bins, Geraldine Carter, June Perez. Photography, Michele Renaud, Patty Spofiford, Jerome Brewster, Mary Hardy, Marilyn Damon, and Raymond Haskell. Head Typist, Patty Spofford. Faculty Adviser, Mrs. Matheson. Professional photography was done by the Stevens Studio, Bangor, our official photog- raphers for the first time. The Deer Isle Photo Studio has cooperated with supple- mentary pictures. Following the present trend, we have made our book a bit more informal than usual. In doing so, we hope we have shown a picture truly representative of school life. We should like to express our appreciation to our aclvertisers and to our parents and friends. who have helped make this issue of The Gatherer possible.

THE GATHERER As we go to press, we are looking forward to pleasant events this spring. Plans are be- ing made for a dancing class in which we may receive professional instruction in danc- ing. Such a class has not been held since 1948. We are earning money for the pur- chase of 'a new high powered victrola. We also have ahead of us the spring plays, base- ball, a music program, and, of course, gradu- ation. GIRLS' STATE Carol Woodman was chosen last Spring as the junior girl to attend Girls' State, a summer camp for girls, 'held annually at Colby College in Waterville. The local A-merican Legion Auxiliary 'sponsored Car- ol's trip. Carol reports that the emphasis at Girls' State is upon the principles and functioning of our government. Voting procedures, both state and local, are illustrated. The girls themselves took the parts of -tellers, town clerks, and moderators. Many prominent speakers 'brought inter- esting information to the girls. T-here were also periods for fun and play, with an op- portunity to get acquainted with other girls from all over the state, who had been chosen as outstanding students and leaders.
