Those of us on the Yearbook Staff extend our heartiest thanks to you for having made this Yearbook so successful. It was a pleasure and an honor to have been able to work with you. We will never forget you, and we hope that after we have started out on our own we will come across a few more Mrs. Chamberlains to help us when we need it as you always have. jde gfue ana! go! HMA of You have all heard of the forty-niners who went to California in search of gold. We, too, are forty-niners who searched for and found a treasure. We did not find ours in the gold mines of California. We found our treasure in the buildings and in the members of Franklin High School. The gold miners were the forty-niners of their century. We are the forty-niners of this one. Have we secured enough wealth and treasure to call ourselves true forty-niners? Let us take inventory and see if we are really worthy of the name. We started on the journey to secure the wealth that was our heritage in 1946. We set our minds and hearts to the task of living up to our name upon our entrance into the fresh- men class. We were not very strong for the undertaking of such a long journey so our progress at first was slow. We encountered many obstacles, the biggest of which was Iunior City. Our task was to make our Iunior City a pure and shining gold piece with which to start our wealth. This task was accomplished by programs which we planned and executed. Ours was a democratic and orderly government led by Mayors Ioan Shea and Hugh Keating. We now had earned the right to call this nugget ours so we carefully stored it away to be the nucleus of a vast store of precious values. The journey was not always an obstacle coursep it was a test of courage, leadership, sportsmanship, and know- ing how to live with our fellow human beings. We learned these qualities the hard way - by experience. Now and then we took time out from our search to have a little fun. One of these times was our Freshmen Carnival. With Rita Beaupre as our queen candidate, we put up a hard fight for victory but, being young and inexperienced, we fell short of the goalg so we put this fun away until our next year. On another of our times we-went to Webster Lake for our class picnic. Amid the splashing and laughter a new treasure was discovered - companionship. The end of our ninth year found us with shiny faces at our junior high graduation. We knew we had come to a quarter mark in our search for the gold at the rainbow's end, We counted our pieces and realized we had to gain many more if we were to be true forty-niners. With this thought in mind we faced the future with more determination. We started school in our sophomore year with mixed feelings of awe, excitement and anticipation. We stood in awe of the huge building that was to be our home until the end of our search. We thought we would never get used to its vastness, but gradually we began to feel at home. With Hugh Keating, Betty Schmidt, Lois Ripley and Armand Pelletier as our class officers, we began to make rapid progress. During our sophomore year Anne Tucker joined our class and proved to be a loyal friend and valuable classmate. We were proud of Armand, as Randolph, the kid brother, in the Dramatics Club play, A Date With Iudy. Barb Hartwell took part in the Legion Oratorical Contest and won first prize. We began to realize now why we were destined to bear the name of forty-niners. Yes, we were indeed lucky and wealthy to be such a talented class. The Winter Carnival came again and we were determined to put up stiff opposition to the other classes. We were also deter- mined to have our candidate, Lois Ripley, as queeng but again our determination was stronger than our teams. We reached the half way mark at the climax of our sophomore days with a picnic at Wellington Beach. A day in the open air and sunshine seemed to give us extra vim and energy to tackle the remaining prospecting days. At the start of our junior year we were in for a surprise. The first half of our journey had been like a happy merry-go-round compared to the problems and tasks that now confronted us. We very carefully chose our guides. They were Hugh Keating, Henry Lemire, Lois Ripley, and Armand Pelletier. One ot our first tasks was selecting and ordering our class rings. When they finally came in the spring we were very pleased with our previous de- cision. There were many activities to show up our progress, but we were more eager to gain wealth and knowledge than we were to reach the journey's end. The ski club pro- vided many eventful dates, some of them being the Turkey Trot, Mardi Gras, and many memorable afternoons at Sunny Slopes. According to examples set by George, Kenny, and Porter the club members took their skiing seriously. For others there were dramatics and the annual play. This year it was the hilarious Doctor's Orders. There were Armand Pelletier, Bob Morse, Theresa Menard, Milton Carr, and Anne Tucker from our store of talent to take part in it. Barb Hartwell again won the Legion Oratorical Con- test but was defeated in district competition by one point. Some liked sports so they col- lected their nuggets there. Football, baseball, cheerleading, girls' hockey, basketball and softball attracted many other of our girls and boys. Yes, there were certainly many gold pieces to be gained, but we had to move on before our time was up. Our determination came back with the winter carnival, and this year the victory was ours. Ruth LaBonte and Barney Dunnan were a very royal king and queen. Ruthie and Phyllis Luti were new mem- bers to our class and were very valuable ones. Our class grew in wisdom, wealth, and fellowship that third year. New tasks popped up from every direction. The biggest of these was the planning of our Iunior Prom, With the committees working diligently the prom was a big success. Everyone who danced to the tunes of the Yacht Club Orchestra was well satisfied with the results. It was a happy time for us and each bit of fun and gaiety was made possible by the treasures we found. Another important task that came our way was the organization of the Student Government. We came to the three-quarters mark and took time out for a breather. We spent the day at Wellington Beach where we soaked up sun, and basked in the pleasant feeling of comradeship. During the summer Bob Morse went to Boys' State to represent our class. We were now coming into the homestretch of our gold rush days so we worked harder than ever. This would be the last time we would be able to gain nuggets to prove our- selves worthy of our name. When we came back to school in the fall, we found that some- thing new had been added. We now had the freshmen class in F. H. S., a new cafeteria had been installed, while the music room was in junior high. The place didn't seem like home at first, but we soon got used to it. Hugh, Henry, and Lois again led the way with the addition of Milt Carr. Ours was an ambitious class so we used our initiative to good advantage. The Dramatics Club Play, Those Websters starred Armand and Theresa Menard, with Phyllis Luti, Carol Nichols, Barney, Dunnan, Milton Carr, Pat Hoar, and Ralph Gregg aiding them as members of the supporting cast. Carol, a new comer to our class that fall, won fame for herself and the class with her magic violin. We had a weekly radio broadcast over W L N H and a column of high school news in the I. T. called the F. H. S. Hy Lifes written by Betty Schmidt. Sports, clubs, dances were all part of the many miles toward our gold mine. The fun of the carnival gave us new spirit, and crowning our king and queen, Hugh Keating and Lois Ripley was a proud ending to our last carnival. The taking and swapping of class pictures, ordering name cards and invitations made us realize how near our treasure was. We did not know whether we were glad or sad, but we pushed on nevertheless. The last tasks we had to complete were the planning of the Senior Banquet, the Senior Prom with its festivity, class day, and most important of all, graduation. Before the iinal step, we took a day out to have fun just once more together. This was our very last trip, so we all played hard and laughed hard. Graduation came and we were eager to go forth and distribute our wealth to the world but yet we were sad to leave the home that had given us our fortune. We had traveled a long road together but now we all had to go separate ways with our gold. Now at last we could take inventory and know that we were true 49'ers and could walk proudly with the name. We could lace the future undaunted, unafraid, because we had wealth and treasure with us. No one can steal our gold because it has our own names on it. We have laughed, worked, and cried for this and it is ours. Yes, we are the forty-niners, and the memory of the Blue and Gold Rush of '49 is truly ours, to hold in our hearts forever. 66155 pl'0PA2Cy TIME: Oct. 15, 1959 PLACE: Franklin Air Field American Airline Plane landing - a familiar figure moves across the field, enters NADON'S taxi and proceeds to the city. After leaving the taxi, and shuffling through the crowd about the large display window of LA PLANTE'S Clothing Store, this figure is seen watching a shopper on the inside. The curiosity involved in placing the familiar face is too much for our visitor. As she approaches the man at the counter, he suddenly turns to lace her. BARNEY DUNNAN! Hello RUTH! What are you doing in an Airline Stewardess' Uniform? Say Barney, I was almost sure that you were the person by the counter and when you turned, I was shocked to see that you had grown so! Yes, I have a little leave from the Airlines and thought that I would come back to Franklin to see what it looked like after my ten years' absenceg I was hoping to find some of our class mates. What are you doing just now? l've been driving around in my new car, which I bought from ELLlOTT'S Garage and I have been over to FRED COOK'S electrical center to see if we could install new lights at the F. H. S. gym. You see, since l've been the superintendent of schools here, Coach HENRY LEMIRE and his assistant, LEO MAHEU, have asked me to have new lighting for the gym. Would you care to come down to the school? I'm on my way now, and you might be surprised to see what a difference 10 years can make in a school! I'd love to, Barney. By the way, I thought I saw BETTY COATES in the City Library on my way over. Yes, Ruth, she is the new librarian. Oh, on my way, I must stop for my suit at RICHARD SMITH'S Dry Cleaning Shop. You'll excuse me? l've been busy lately as Professors ROBERT MORSE and EDWARD BAGLEY have just sent me some of their new achievement tests they have been producing and have asked me to try them out here at F. H. S. - Here we are, does it look any different? The cars all seem to be the same, but whose bus is that, Barney? Oh! that's GEORGE DOUCETTE'S School Bus. Would you like to stop and say hello to Barbara Hartwell, the school secretary? I must be going to each class to hand the teachers these tests. Why not come along? . . . Here's Mr. DUBE'S trig class. He seems to be doing quite well! I wonder what Miss MENARD'S history class is doing? Now, let's try WALTER DOWNING'S English class. The pupils aren't the same as we were, are they? Say, Barney, it seems good to see all these faces again. How is the cafeteria? We always had such good meals there. Well, since RAYMOND ALLEN has put out his new cook book, our cooks, RAYMOND BERARD and LOUIS WILLAND, have been doing fine. The school nurse, CECILE LABELLE, has approved of all the sanitary conditions there, also. Speaking of nurses, LOIS RIPLEY is the new Superintendent at Mary Hitchcock Hospital. Is that right, Ruth? RACHEL MARCEAU is the Assistant Head Nurse here at the Franklin Hospital. By the way, will you be in town this evening? We are planning a celebration with most of our Alumni present. Wouldn't you like to be there? Was that the announcement I heard by MILTON CARR on the Franklin Radio News? lt must have been, Ruth, because I handed this announcement to his secretary, IOYCE CLOGSTON: 'The famous GREGG Band will open the ceremonies at tonight's concert. There also will be solos by: 1. MARY COLBY, the noted trumpet player. 2. CAROL NICHOLS, noted violinist. 3. RAYMOND BEAUPRE'S famous girls' sextet. 4. DORIS FRYE, representing Benny Goodman. 5. The opera singer, LOUISE PEKOR. For an added attraction, Franklin's gift to Hollywood will present a skit. The cast will consist of RICHARD Van Iohnson MERRILLg IOHN Humphrey Bogart GAILLARDg VIR- GINIA Bette Davis HOLDENg ANDREW Lady Killer DESHAIS: and ROBERT SHYLOCK CATE. The setting for the play was designed by FLORENCE ROBICHAUD assisted by the Walt Disney Cartoonist, KEN GAGNE. Some of the famous lines from ANNE TUCKER'S Book of Poems are to be used in this skit.' That sounds good: I won't miss it, Barney. Oh! after that announcement, it seems I heard the Sport Caster, RAYMOND DODGE, announce: 'RICHARD HODGDON has scored the winning goal in the game between the Boston Bruins and the Chicago Black Hawks. VASIL CHURAS, the 6' 6 center of the Boston Celts, scored 35 points in their win over New York. Manager NORMAND DOUCET of the Boston Red Sox announces the sale of STANLEY DUSTIN, pitcher, to the Cleveland Indians and the signing of EUGENE GIGNAC, Boston Red Sox Shortstop. The Olympic Ski Team, com- posed of GEORGE LACBOIX, KEN WORDEN, 'and PORTER YOUNG were given a banquet for their victories in Switzerland. The flowers for the banquet were donated by FIELDERS and DUSSAULT, INC. EUGENE BELZ was seriously injured when he stopped a puck in the game between the New York Rangers and the Toronto Maple Leafs. ROLAND BEAUPRE, head sponsor of the cheerleading contest, announces that it will be held Feb. 15. CYNTHIA VEYSEY is trying to organize a girls' semi-pro basketball team at Franklin. LEO LEFEBVRE and ROGER ANDRUS have won prizes at the County Fair.' Oh yes, NADEAU and SYLVESTRE'S markets jointly sponsor this broadcast, and following this program, ELIIAH SNYDER has his Comedy Hour, featuring EARL PICARD as chief mattress tester. Did you know that HUGH KEATING and CHARLES KYRATSIS have been very busy inventing a new type of gum and have asked CHRISTOPHER DOWNES, National Guard Commander, for permission to experiment with it at the National Guard meetings held weekly at NORMAND DAIGNEAULT'S Bowling Alley? PHYLLIS LUTI is keeping record of the experiments and IEAN MORRILL is typing them up. Before going to the celebration this evening, Barney, I'll have to stop in at BENSON G MERCIER'S Hairdressing Shop. By the way, is ARMAND PELLETIER, the city photographer, going to be on hand for informal shots? We hope so. Mayor AUGUST TETREAULT will be guest speaker with his secretary, PAULINE RICHARD, doing the introducing. BETTY SCHMIDT, the present owner of the Transcript, will be there to take in all events for the paper. I've heard that ELEANOR SMITH has a nursery here in town and Mrs. Robert Mac- Donald, formerly PATRICIA RIEL, has taken advantage of it by sending Bob Ir. there. Yes, Ruth, many other class mates have been married in the past ten years also. LOIS GARDNER has a little family in New York and NORMA COLLINS as we know, has been raising a family. PATRICIA HOAR has been increasing the population in Gerrish, while WILLIAM KELLEY hasn't yet found his tongue to ask anyone to marry him. I wonder if CLAIRE HEBERT is still taking those cemetery trips? Did you know that RAYMOND PARRIS is doing fine with his lumbering business, and BASIL PANO has a bus business to Webster Lake? Also, WILLIS NOWELL is the local scout master. Well, Barney, the class seems to have made a very good showing during its first ten years out of high school and we might well be proud of every member in it!!I O UI 1' .J xi., 563 cjijt Ns .sk akk WW 15 0 'wsu +2 wi N -Q V1 V..

Hockey season came up with a brand new coach and an equally new squad. Our new coach was Miss Mclntosh who really organized this group of inexperienced players. The team's co-captains were Thelma Gassett and Barbara Hartwell. This year's ever-ready manager was Margaret Sawyer, with Virginia Weigand assisting her. Our best line combination was C. Robitaille and I. Astbury. P. Iones and E. Churas did equally well at the center position. The passing ability of M. Churas and P. Worden was tops. Half-backs were L. Ripley, I. Hartwell, A. Tucker, and B. Hartwell. Our faithful back stops were I. Paquette, T. Gassett, I. Lemire, and M. McDonald. During the season the team was represented in Hanover at the Annual Hockey Clinic. Principal speakers were coaches of the various teams. The feature of the program was the instructing of the senior girls in refereeing a field hockey game. The Annual Hockey Clinic was started last year by our former Coach, Mrs. Finnigan, and now it is an annual event. There were two freshmen playing varsity - Iune Hartwell and Ieannette Lemire. With all the ability shown in this year's squad we are expecting another championship team next year. Good Luck!! -.wil joofgaff The 1948 edition of the Franklin High football team enjoyed one of the best seasons in recent years. Coach Tony Zullo presented a team comprised of nine seniors, one junior, and one sophomore. This team, greatly improved with experience gathered from last year, chalked up an impressive record of six victories, one tie and one defeat. At the end of the campaign the boys were given a smoker by the K. of C. at which time Henry Lemire was presented with the Outstanding Player Cup. Captain Henry Lemire, a standout all season was also honored by being picked as Captain of the All State Second Team. The Blue and Gold lost through graduation, Capt. Henry Lemire, George Lacroix, Ken Worden, Andrew Deshaies, Leo Maheu, Stan Dustin, Hugh Keat- ing, Leo Lefebvre, Gene Belz, Walt Downing, Andrew Dube, Richard Merrill Robert F ielders, and Gerry Nadeau.

Big guns on the offense were Deshaies, Dube and Merrill. Outstanding on defense were Keating, I-lodgdon, and net minder Gene Belz.

A very large squad came out for basketball this year, and it took several practices before Coach Dolofl could select the outstanding players. The co-captains were Thelma Gassett and Anne Tucker. The team played a thirteen game schedule. We won nine games, lost three, and tied one. Our opponents were Meredith, Belmont, Ashland, St. Ioe's, Newport, Bristol, and Penacook. The high scorer was Helen Pastuzeck, with 73 points. The other forwards' scores were: B. Hartwell 54, I. Astbury 45, M. Churas 43, C. Veysey 30, B. Smith 33, C. Ftobitaille 27, and E. Churas 7, I. Hartwell, E. Smith, B. Burrill, M. Gauthier, and I. Colcord O. The guard section consisted of Gassett, Tucker, Humphrey, Paige, Pelletier, Brock, Cartwright, Paquette, Per- rault.

The Franklin High basketeers were not too successful this year. Greatly hampered by lack ol material Coach Zullo's boys were able to win but 3 ol their 22 game schedule. The team enjoyed a trip to the Boston Garden where they lost a hard fought game to Rockland, Mass., 34-26. The team lost two thrillers to Laconiag 36-30 at Laconia, and again 45-43 at home. The squad was composed of Henry Lemire, George Rivard, Ray Marceau, Nick Liolis, Henry Deshaies, Paul Lerriire, Ken Coen, Dick Seamans and Mgr. Ioe Daig- neault.

One of its major functions was the management of the passing of students between classes and the noon-hour lunch periods. A monitor system was set up, whereby Student Government members were stationed in the halls, for the guidance of students between classes, to assemblies, and during the noon- hour periods. A Traffic Violation Committee was in force to act as a jury for violators of the traffic rules, The organization successfully handled many other projects. There were the school dances. Because every class and club wanted the favored dates, the Student Government had to set up the schedule for these affairs. Another project was selling candy and ice-cream during the noon-hour and at all home basketball games, This was done voluntarily to raise money for the A. A. Members were also ticket sellers and collectors at football and basketball games. Student Government also sponsored an intra-mural basketball pro- gram, open to all boys and girls who were not out for varsity basketball. There were twelve organized teams, and games were played each day at the close of school. Other projects of the organization were: governing bus behavior, setting up fire-drill rules, setting rules for selecting cheerleaders, and being teacher substitutes. Well done, Student Government of '49! .w V' fc? fig? f?i5?Et?5i Hugo group Radio really arrived at F. H. S. this year. The Radio Group was formed at the beginning of the school year with a weekly fifteen minute program to present. lt used these fifteen minute programs to present plays, debates, quiz programs, special promotions, musical programs and panel discusions. The Radio Group was split up into three smaller groups. They were the tech- nical, or the ones in charge of music and sound effects, the regulars, who were members regularly used in casts, and the permanent subs, or the extras for casts. Our group made a big start toward something that has even bigger and better possibilities. aaemgfg Kommiffee ln the fall, rope in hand, Mr. Connor lassoed some of the members of his Problems of American Democracy Class to be on an Assembly Committee. Evidently his rope got worn as it was found that he hadn't enough, so he passed the buck by having the class officers select two representatives from each class. Maybe it was because we looked as if we were not receiving enough calories and vitamins, or it was just generosity - anyhow, the official launching of the committee was at a supper served in the cafeteria on Nov. 22. While lingering over our demi-tasse in the drawing-room, an election was held and Milt Carr was elected President and Phee Luti as Librarian. lt wasn't long before it seeped through the walls of the industrious fac- tories which were set upon our shoulders that the object of our selected group was to plan and execute a series of programs which would provide the school with presentations both educational and entertaining. Not that we like to boast, but we put on nine assemblies this year, which included a play at Christmas time, a radio program, speakers, and a roaring He-llzapoppinf' Last but not least we put on a very amusing amateur show. The fortunate members on this honorable committee were: Chickie Luti, Darlene Cutter, Ianet LaPlante, Pat Iones, Mickey Flanagan, Mike Leahy, Arthur Frew, Lois Ripley, Bob Morse, Carol Nichols, Pat Hoar, Leo Lefebvre, Betty Schmidt, George Lacroix, and Porter Young. Although at the start we may have felt as if we had got roped into something we'd regret, we now feel differently and agree that it certainly was loads of fun planning and tak- ing part in the assemblies. We found that work and play can be mixed. wing President Armand Pelletier Vice-President Betty Schmidt Secretary Phyllis Luti Treasurer Ruth LaBonte Advisor Mr. Connor The main purpose of the Swing Club, when it was first organized, was to furnish all social programs for the school. Since every class and club are furnishing these, the Swing Club this year limited its events to two affairs, the Holiday Hop, and the Carnival Ball, The Holiday Hop was held on December 29 for all high school students and Swing Club alumni. The gym was gaily decorated and the large crowd enjoyed a very nice evening. On Ianuary 31 the annual Carnival Ball was held, climaxing two weeks of excitement and anticipation, The whole carnival went off very well, with all four classes offering keen competition in all of the events, The night of the Ball found that the Senior class had racked up the most points and their cane didates, Lois Ripley and Hugh Keating, were crowned Queen and King, to reign over the Carnival festivities. ramaficri We never did get around to changing our officers - we just let Armand Pelletier and Raymond LaPlante trail along from last year! We were too busy rehearsing Those Websters to care very much about who was president, etc. For the first time in Franklin the annual play was presented in November, on two nights, with two separate casts! What a job! There were times when we thought we would never make it. Theresa got hurt, Edmund banged up his carpenter hand, we couldn't find proper costumes - while the clock ticked on towards the opening night. But everybody plugged hard, consumed pounds ot potato chips, gallons ot coke, and came through with two excellent performances! We also entertained the Rebekahs with a scene from Abraham Lincoln, in costumeg plus a silly pantomime called Love Will Triumph. Rehearsing was a grind, but remember all the laughs we had? And we hope that our audiences enjoyed our efforts. After all, The play's the thing! The F. H. S. Dramatics Club THU E WEB.

This year they were fortunate in having two periods of glee club fit into their schedules each week. No one could forget the fine program that they presented at the Christ- mas Concert. The stage, decorated with lighted trees and greens, the girls beautiful in evening gowns, the boys impressive in dark suits, and the fine Christmas music left a spell on the audience. Equally delightful to the audience was the Annual Spring Concert where tlzekchorus shared honors with the band andzall of the public school children o t e city. Five of its members represented the F. H. S. Chorus at the All-State Music Festival in Concord on March 17 G 18. The five who attended were: Mary Colby, Patricia Iones, Yvette Trachy, Armand Pelletier, and Gerard Nadeau. Miss Moses had many requests for her choral groups to present selections for clubs and civic groups throughout the year, and because it would have been impossible to take along the whole glee club, she again this year organ- ized the girls' sextet. It was composed of Doloras Nadeau, Doris Frye, and Norma Collins, sopranos, and Mary Colby, Ianet Paquette, and Patricia Iones, altos. These girls presented programs for the P. T. A., the Fireman's Conven- tion, and the Rotary Club. Kan! President Doris Frye Vice-President Raymond LaPlante Secretary-Treasurer Anne Tucker Librarian Ralph Gregg A group of hard working boys and girls practiced their toots and oom- pas twice a week under the direction of Mr. Robert Hall. They grew into a good-sized group and really looked and sounded snappy on the gridiron. They played at every home football game and traveled to Plymouth and Laconia to encourage their team. Thousands of spectators enjoyed the per- formance that the combined Franklin and Laconia bands presented at the annual Armistice game. The band helped usher in the Christmas season by presenting some fine selections at the Christmas Concert. To add a little different touch to the pro- gram there were a clarinet duet, a trumpet duet, and a brass ensemble. Whenever there was a parade in Franklin, you would find the high school band right there furnishing the music. They paraded for the American Legion, the Merchants, and played for the city inaugural, the Franklin-Laconia rally, the P. T. A., National Education Week, Memorial day, and graduation exercises. In March, the All-State Music Festival found Franklin represented in each of its sections. Doris Frye, Raymond Beaupre, and Louis Willand, clarinetsg Barbara Hartwell and Raymond LaPlante, saxophonesg Ralph Gregg, cornet, Betty Schmidt, tromboneg and Cecile LaBelle, drums. On May 14, the New Hampshire Auditions Festival was held in Franklin, and the F. H. S. Music Department was host to about two thousand boys and girls, members of high school bands and glee clubs from every part of the state. All of those groups had auditions during the day, which was climaxed by a huge parade. The multitudes of young people, flying banners, and snappy music were an inspiration to the entire city of Franklin. Kay -' , rw ff J M21 Q!! 1 Q... A M wr i?
