No, sir, I don't envy the seniors one mite. You know. they have less than a week be- fore the play. I pity the poor boys who haven't as yet learned their parts! They're practicing every night now for more than two hou1's. I couldn't t.ake it with all these studies. Are you going to the meeting? Mr. Ham- lin is forming ia Safety Council, and if you drive a car to school you've simply got to join. This ought to cut down reckless driving. I wonder who's going to Augusta to the State Youth and Safety Council Conference. Secancf Qaafzfm Embryo cabinet-makers Oh, oh, there goes the buzzer-end of the Iirst quarter! Second quarter coming right up! Seniors score at the beginning with a smash hit. Ad- vance sales for the senior play we1'e over 3100. Richard and Darrell looked and acted like authentic criminals, and the girls' cos- tumes were stunning. A lot ot' time was spent on the play and it certainly proved worth-while. The contest for posters to ad- vertise the play was a swell way for our talented people to earn some spending money. Vicki, Joan, and Judy have real' artistic abilities. There was quite a crowd at Open House in observance of Education Week. The teachers did well to cram a forty-minute period into ten minutes and answer questions in the limited time. Now our parents know how we operate! I bet the junior girls en- joyed serving all the Darents.

Proving what? 1?Ml.Qaa21f0a There goes the school bell, signal for the start of the lirst quarter in the 1958-59 game. It doesn't seem possible that summer could slip by so quickly. We're already greeting old friends in our newly-formed classes-, and even the new teachers are dishing out as- signments galore. Ollicers have been chosen for various clubs and classes so soon. We be- lieve in Do it now! Who's the man enchanting the entire stu- dent body and faculty with his hilarious jokes? He's none other than smiling Mr. Ilobert Sprague, introducing us to the big- gest money-raising campaign of the year- the animal magazine drive. The seniors were overjoyed to hear that they had the highest. percentage of sales. Loring Kydd received Peanuts for being high salesman in the class. The drive went over SB1000, a hundred Mr. llainlin Secretarial hopefuls mo1'e than the goal, and all those selling one subscription dashed to the Harbor for a free ice cream. We're mighty proud to see Tom and Lor- ing placing sixth and seventh in the Cross Country meet at Blue Hill. They'll be missed next year. Who'd ever have believed Gary could do the hula? And look at Martha! She's swing- ing the hula-hoop like a professional. Now wouldn't you think they'd be embarrassed before this huge audience '? I'm glad I don't have to scrub all that make-up off before the dance. Some people will -do anything to be- come full-fledged freshmen at Deer Isle High. Gee, but those booths are attractive! I bet it took some time to deco-rate them. Look at the peppermint candy cane running diagon- ally across t.he top of the junior candy booth, and a plaid skirt, too. Juniors certainly de- served tirst prize. Did you hear that the Mr. Johnson Mr. Colt 1

They must have had an exciting time with all the celebrities, listen- ing in on discussions and talks on safety and the highway, and enjoying the dance. A great deal was gained from the trip to Portland for the State Student Council Con- ference. Judy Barbour, Judy Grindle, Dar- rell Snowden, and Dickie Snowden were chosen to go. While there, they heard dis- tinguished speakers and were able to par- ticipate in workshops, where discussions were held. Two valuable days were spent there. Look at those boys fight! By golly, we've won our first basketball game without much trouble. I say that we'll get a berth in the tournament this year. Peggy an-d Darrell, the Independent and Democratic candidates, can now relax after hearing that Bob was chosen Mayor follow- ing a week of campaigning. Bob appears poised, and my bet is that he's looking for- ward te olliciating around school and taking charge of assemblies. I haven't been able to get through the mob to see the senior photographs, but by their faces I would say seniors are pretty pleased. I caught a glimpse of Ilichard's. What a doll! Juniors are busy learning selections for the Junior Prize Speaking semi-finals to be Judged by the faculty and directed by Miss Gross. They'd better get busy, because Gathmeff- assignments will soon be passed out too. Last day of school before vacation, and Christmas parties in all homerooms! I haven't had so much fun in ages. And to think that everyone received a gift, as well as plenty of food! The teachers presented a big black-and-white banner to the students, right in time for basketball games. We've never had one before, and were we sur- prised! Ilirvest Fair Seniors juniors fliirst Prizeli Sophomore-5 Nl
