,,. ' CHRISTINE C. FETZER Give thy thought: no tongue. Conservation Club 35 Outing Club 2. Christine became well-known in room 30 as a competent bank cashier. She preferred to be seen and not heard as she made the daily trip from Bur- lington. She was one of the better players on the varsity basketball team and played with all the enthusiams of a lover of the games. We hope that you will like your position of secretary, Chris. sh- Ui I Conservation Club 3, 4g Outing Club 2, 35 Minstrel 3g Hilltop Club 2. Mary did not confide many of her secrets to us, but preferred to share them with Mimi Scanning our class records, we find that Mary's marks were always good. We liked to watch her eyes light up when she smiled. Noting that you refuse to be separated from your pal even after graduation, it is our hope that you will enjoy your journey through life, Mary. Hilltop Club 2, Conservation Club 2, 3, 4, Outing Club 3, 4. Sandra never rid herself of her carefree attitude whether she was attend- ing class, performing acrobatic stunts in the gymnasium, or watching as bas- ketball game. Of course, a green Pontiac may have had much to do with her happy nature. What will happen to the gum when you start taking dictation, sandy ? MARY ELIZABETH FLYNN A quiet and rtudiour girl. SANDRA YVONNE FRASCONA Sing a Jong of che-wirtg,' my pocket? full of gum. SHARON EILEEN FLYNN ' Nothing great 'war ever achieved without enthusiasm. Outing Club 3, President 4, Conservation Club 2, 3, Secretary 4g Cheer- leader 3, 4, Hilltop Club 2g Parade of Youth Reporter 4, Honor Society 3, 43 Minstrel 4g Winter Carnival Attendant 2, 3g Athletic Association 2, 3, 4. It seemed that no activity sponsored by the class of 1956 was ever com- plete without Sharon. He foremost activity was cheerleading, where her pleas- ing personality was always in evidence. Dancing in the minstrel show, typing for the class book, serving on committees, and reporting for the Parade of Youth consumed much of her time. We believe employment will be yours for the asking, Sharon. 0 x

X GEORGE FRANKLIN DAY, JR. A jester who laughs at his own jokes. Class Play 35 Conservation Club 3, 45 Dramatic Club 33 Minstrel 4, All State Chorus 4, Choir 3. George took time out from his talking to participate in glee club con- certs and the minstrel. His hue bass voice was responsible for his selection to the All State Chorus. His performance in our junior play was outstanding. We expect some day to hear of your making a permanent date with Judy, Georgie, DAVID PETER DUBE School work fascinates meg l can sit and look at it for hours. Rifle Club 2, 3, Conservation Club 4, Football Manager 2. David seemed to be in training for the job of taxi driver as he drove passengers to and from school each day. Untroubled by. the details of home- work, he made his way among us, finding much to laugh about with his friend Don, Perhaps you will one day own the Greyhound Line, Dave, and give the class of 1956 reduced rates. EDWARD FRANCIS EDGERTON In the dead vast and middle of the night. Basketball 2, 3,'4g Conservation Club 2, 3, 4g Automobile Club 33 Farm- ington High Indian 4. That lively senior cavorting around the basketball court is none other than our Edward, who lives the game twenty-four hours a day. His impish grin and sense of humor will be as long remembered as his famous markers, Iced. We see success for you, Butch as a professional basketball player. PETER BROCH EDSTROM A creative mind and skillful fingers pull of paint. Conservation Club 2, 4g Minstrel 4, Fairview Beacon Staff 2, Art Editor for the Farmington Student. Peter really came to the front with his unusual drawings and interpreta- tions. How natural he was in the minstrel with his harmonica and country attire! Each morning found him making an early arrival at room 30, but not to meet the teacher. With your talent you should go far as a commercial artist, Pete 13

BERTIL F. FRIDLIND The coast it clear. Conservation Club 2, 33 Motor Safety Club 4g Audio-Visual Club 23 Auto- mobile Club 55 Hobby Club 2. Bert certainly had the advantage over most of us at football and baseball games because he did not have to stand on the bench to see what was going on. Keenly interested in automobiles, his heart swelled with joy when he re- ceived his first car. When you set up your own print shop in Unionville, the class of '56 will give you all their business. JOHN PAUL GLANOVSKY H e pursue: the even tenor of his way. - Conservation Club 2, 5, 4g Automobile Club 3, Motor Safety Club 4. John has an affable disposition which is always in evidence. We found him most cooperative. His greatest pleasure seemed to come from his courses in Industrial Arts and in tinkering with automobiles. Maybe you will be chief automobile mechanic for the class of 1956, john. ALBERT JOHN GREGERICK The bert healers if good cheer. Audio-Visual Club 2g Conservation Club 3, 4g Motor Safety Club 45 Auto- mobile Club 33 Football 2, 3. It always seemed that just as classes were to begin, Albert had to run an errand for someone. Perhaps such as occasion gave him an opportunity to see Betty on the way. He was a familiar sight working in a grocery store after school. We hope that you do not discard your ambition of becoming a book- keeper, Al, once you finish your service in the Navy. V CAROL ANN GRESH A cheek ever ready with 4 hlurhf' Minstrel 5, 4g Class Plays 5, 4, Conservation Club 2, 3, 4, French Club 4g Art Editor for the Farmington Student , Winter Carnival Attendant 2, 5, Queen 4. A very noticeable blush constrasting beautifully with blond hair and a very quiet manner characterize Carol. Though petite in size she was a worthy opponent on the badminton court. As queen of the Carnival Dance she made a very lovely and gracious appearance. Your industry will be rewarded by suc- cess in the field of nursing, Carol. Take pity on the internes. 'I5
