HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1970 In the fall of 1958 the first grade room of Mrs. Vera Riley was blessed by the arrival of twenty-six in- nocent little cherubs, clad in new clothes and carrying awkward new lunch boxes. Of these, only six en- dured the twelve years of agony with the graduating class of 1970. That year holds memories for us all. For instance, the trials of Debbie T. as Brian L. sat behind her tugging at her ringlets; or Mrs. Riley’s ex- clamation I thought I smelled that stinkin' gum ; and the time that Diane P. forgot to wear her undies to school. Yes, we certainly started off on the wrong foot under the evil eye and in constant fear of Mr. Harris, THE PRINCIPAL. We progressed into second grade with fourteen members in the class, Margaret L. joining us. Here un- der the instruction of Mrs. Alice Goodhue we learned cursive writing - writing that year was a necessity, be- cause in order to go to the bathroom you had to write your name on the board first. The trouble was - that sometimes it took too long to write your name. Isn’t that right, Brian? Poor Mrs. Goodhue! In 1960 she was again greeted by our not so innocent faces. Third grade was a year of girls chase the boys, snow-forts, a class play, and a magnificent game called skyjets, which was in- spired by a book on our brand new round reading table. It was also a year of rivalry between Diane P. and Brenda G. over Brian L. They'll never forget the time that Brenda brought 500 to school so Brian would kiss her. In 1961 we were the responsibility of Mrs. Juanita Malone. Some of us considered her our nicest teacher. She taught us long division and how to make mud hogans. It seemed to be a year of parties - not only Halloween, Xmas, and Valentine's Day parties but also birthday parties for teacher and students. Amidst our merriment, however, was tragedy; Larry B., who was apparently accident-prone, fell on the ice and cracked open his knee. We all suffered mental anguish until he recovered. In grades five and six, the entire class learned the process of boiling water for Mrs. Ross' tea. These two years were accented by our daily posture exercises and our newly developed interest in dancing (5th grade was the year of the twist and the Beatles). Due to severe illness on the part of Mrs. Ross, Mrs. Mae Gates was our teacher for the first part of sixth grade. During this time emphasis was placed on art and creative writing. Also we were joined that year by Barbara Bates, whom we enthusiastically welcomed by an arm-breaking game of red-rover. Yes, our elementary years were trying, rewarding, and impossible to forget. To Annette they were especially challenging since English was foreign to her. And to highlight each year was a trip to Gramby Zoo. In the fall of 1964 we ascended the worn wooden stairs of Franklin High School with marked hesitation. Suffering under the false illusion of assiduous studying, complete silence, and iron-handed teachers whose glee was in assigning homework, we were gripped by fear and apprehension as we took our seventh grade seats. Within a minimum period of time, however, our ingenious minds learned the ropes of high school life and with the addition of David Clark we sailed through our 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th grades, gaining and losing classmates. This, our last year gained us two new members, Philip and Anne, making our total membership eleven. It has been a short year filled with copious responsibilities and hilarious experiences. We can't believe that we are finally seniors and that graduation is upon us. In conclusion; good luck, friends; thank you faculty; and good-bye F. H. S.
