Jeani Dunsmore, Nancy Smith, Jane Backus. Profile Boys' State began on June 22, 1958 at the University of New Hampshire for some 200 boys. Rep- resenting Goffstown were Bob Draper and Jon Tack. They learned about our government and, at the same time, met many boys and made many friends. Granite Cirkf State Nancy Smith, Jeani Dunsmore, and Jane Backus were the lucky ones chosen to attend Granite Girls' State from Goffstown. Their week was spent in much the same way as the boys'. They also had many wonderful memories to bring home. All five agreed that it was a wonderful experience. Profile Boys' State 25 Jon Tack and Bob Draper.

Class We, the class of 1959, of Goffstown High School, town of Goffstown, county of Hillsborough, state of New Hampshire, being of unsound mind and memory, do hereby declare this to be our first and last will and testament. To Mr. Holmes, the Senior Problems Class leaves all the pleasant memories of the delightful fourth period. To the remaining members of the girls' basketball team, this year 's senior girls leave the task of arguing for and keeping girls' basketball as a school activity. After all, Mr. Moulton, it's traditional! To the custodians, we, the senior class, leave our extreme ability for keeping the rooms and corridors spotless. To Mr. Sweet, the seniors leave memories of a lively chemistry class. We now have knowledge of everything that pops, smokes, and explodes. Beware world. . .here we come! To Mr. Simpson, the senior trigonometry class leaves all its complaints about homework and test marks. To next year's yearbook staff, this year's staff leaves the benefit of its experience. To anyone who dares to wear it, Pete Athearn leaves his Swiss mountain climbing hat. To her sister, Anne, Jane Backus leaves her ability to keep from going steady. To Shirley Shatney, Phyllis Bailey leaves her position as class pest. Bob Barnard LEAVES. To Peter Swanburg, Bud Batchelder leaves what is left of his car. We truly hope that Pete has better luck with it than Bud has had. To any girl in the Freshman Class, Louise Belanger leaves her talent for dating the same guy for four years. To Bette Miles, Rick Bristol leaves his red hair. The Junior Class can use a red-head. To Barry Riddell, Tom Brown leaves his Studebaker, or should we say his steady-breaker? To Jim Philbrook, Charles Chapman leaves his parking space. To any girl who wants it, Sue Cunningham leaves her seat in the Puritan. To Andy Harden, John Davis leaves his flirting skill. We know Andy will make good use of this valuable asset. To Ken Watt, Carole Desruisseaux leaves her height of 4'10 . To Steve Kehas, Bob Draper leaves his ease at getting along with Mr. Konieczny. We regret to say that Jean Dunsmore leaves nothing. She's taking it all with her. To anyone who has the habit of going to school, Jackie Fellows leaves her left over paper, pencils, and books. To Sharon Simpson, Connie Florand leaves her pixie haircut. To Pam Harden and Jeannie Martin, Dottie Grant and Claire Gagne leave their shyness. This gift should prove very interesting. To the incoming senior class secretary, Bruce Gilbert leaves his skill at getting out of giving secretary reports. To Janice Bristol, Deanna Goodwin leaves her talent for falling off horses. 26
