Mgr.; Rose Marie Winters, Bus. Mgr. After months of hard work our 54 “Blue Gold” is completed. Here we would like to tell you the story of how it was done. The staff is chosen with the help of the English Department. Our ingenious co-editors this year are Fred Wiederwax and Barbara Frampton, who have been most ably assisted by John Hawthorne and Carlie Stuhl. Our capable business managers are Michael Rosen and Rosemarie Winters, and our very fine art editor is Nancy Preston. Write-ups, captions, explanations, and “pix” of everyone and everything, and plenty of good, hard work have gone into the make-up of this book. Our theme this year is woven around a pirate ship. We have tried to carry this out in both write-ups and in illustrations. The “Blue Gold contains the memories of the happy--and sometimes not-so-happy (life is not all sunshine, you know),--four years of high school for the class of '54. We hope it will be something you will prize and want to cherish always for the memories it will bring back.

Rick Wiederwax 1st Mate Phil Campbell Yeoman Kay Campbell Purser Bernice Stubbs REW’S LOG Freshman Year Land Ho! was the great outburst. . .And we knew we were through the worst ...Four years of struggle with our training... While our voyage kept on churning. . .Thinking back now, I can remember. . .How scared I was on the fifth of September... I looked around at the rest of the crew. .. Knowing they felt the same way, too. . . But after our first few weeks... We soon learn- ed high school techniques. . .One day I walked up the Ship’s bow. . .to talk to our Captain, Pat Powell. . .He said he was leaving, but he’d leave in his place . . . Kay Campbell to take over as first mate ... He promised lots of fun in store. . . Dances, parties, and such, galore. . . With the ending of our frosh year... We plotted a dance, for the time was near... We came down the gangway, the dance was through. . . Now, to begin another year anew! Sophomore Year Our lines have been cast. . . With our sails at full mast . . . Over the sea we went, bound . . . To see what new could be found . . . Another dance came our way . . . And the memories stayed . . . But exams made us forget . . . And our brows became thick with sweat . . . Well, we all seemed to pass . . . And now for another year!. . . Another class! Junior Year We were Sailing with our heads together. . . Right into our first play. The Storm we’d weather. . .But as things turned out. . .A gala event was had on that night. . . Much like our play our dance arose... We had a hard time to keep on our toes. . . The crew pulled together with all they had. . . And our dance really wasn’t so bad... Our school kept up at a great pace... Until our assembly we came to face... But we figured just like the rest... We would all have to do our best. . .Well, we did and, as you know,. . .It turned out fine in spite of our woes. . . Then came the biggest event. . . The one to which the Senior (.lass went. . . Yes, it was time for our big day. . . Becau.se our prom was on its way. . .Ending another mighty year. . .Which almost brings the climax near. Fall Festival’ “Junior Telethon” Promenade Ship’s Officers Capt. Rick Wiederwax 1st Mate Bill St. John Yeoman Nancy O’Donald Purser Frank Bowden “George Washing- ton Slept Here” “Holiday Hop” Washington Trip Class Night Baccalaureate Service Commencement Finale Senior Year The waves tossed and turned . . . And the rush of wind made our faces burn. But we could stand all this and more. . . For soon we would close the school door. . .Out into the world we would float. . .all of us in the same boat. We were all much excited. . .We gave our last play. . .And all were delighted . . . Through our last year of toil. . . Many joys would we tread into the soil . . . For we had lots of fun, tears, and laughter. . . Which would echo thru each rafter. . .Yes, we have finished. . .With diploma in hand. . .Now we are off to see the land.
