On the fifth of September, seventeen freshmen enrolled in Deer Isle High School. We lost one member this year, Leroy Hardy. One of the big events of the school year was the Freshman Reception. It was held at the Town Hall. The s-opho- more class dressed each of us in differ- ent types of clothing. That night we had to go down to the Town Hall and perform all sorts of stunts which were thought up by the sophomores. A dance followed and refreshments were sold. Another big event was the Harvest Festival. Our grade chose canned foods. A harvest dance followed, which was by the school. Our class made a net profit of 551150. To raise more money for our treasury we put on a social held at the Elemen- tary School. We sold refreshments. Our net profit was 37.05. Clarice Colwell and Joan Eaton repre- sented our class in the Student Council. Joan Eaton, Claire Colwell, and Cla- rice Colwell were chosen as members of the Library Club.

16 THE GATHERER JUNIOR HIGH REPORT On September 6, 1956, the present eighth graders welcomed the new sev- enth graders to their main room, the junior high, and to six years of wonder- ful education. The enrollment of both classes totaled fifty-eight. We selected for our class officers the following Seventh Grade President, Thomas Colwell Vice President, Norman Snowden Secretary, Nancy Heanssler Treasurer, Mary Haskell Stud-ent Council, Alice Haskell Eighth Grade President, Donna McDonald Vice President, Lewis Ellis Secretary, Gwendolyn Eaton Treasurer, Linda Sylvester Student Council, Dianne Dickinson This year the Junior High made a surprising amount of money with the Curtis Magazine Drive. Everyone was very enthusiastic about it, and the third highest salesman came from our eighth grade. At the annual Harvest Fair, we made a nice, tidy sum of 3323.21 togeth- er. The eighth graders' darts and games booth was brilliantly decorated lt-y the class oflicers in lavender and yel- low, while the seventh grade's grab booth was nicely done in yellow with colored leaves scattered over it. They did very well, for their Hrst time at the fair. This year the sport of basketball brought out quite a number of excited boys for the Junior High team. Not only from the seventh and eighth, but also boys from the sixth grade played. Our coach, Mr. Sullivan, did a fine job in training the boys, and a number of victories came our way. Of course, credit is due also the deserving Junior High cheerleaders who tried so hard and succeeded in cheering the boys on through the games. These cheerlead- ers were Captain Donna McDonald, Linda Beck, Carol Kydd, Dianne Dickin- son, and Elsie Terry. These five viva- cio-us girls proved to be a welcome addi- tion on the fioor and performed their various cheers like veterans. Our principal, Mr. Sullivan, also is coaching a junior high baseball team. At the present they are industriously practicing for the season's games. They have played one game with Brooklin junior high thus far and won by a score of '25 to 6. Indications are that these boys will be welcomed to the high school baseball team when they are freshmen if they continue to improve like they have been doing.
