Throwing A backward glance Over the hill I see roads advance Leaving their travelers This hill to climb. Teachers Were always ready With a hand To pull or steady When the climb Seemed steep. Embodied In me, although In spirit one, Know There are many. The taste of war Still Lingers with SOIUCQ Others of the l'lill Know only peace.

D, ll 'rv' w MISS ESTHER WOOD Colby College, AB. Radcliffe, MA. Dedication To Miss Esther Wood, our tearher and friend, we, the class of 1947, dedicate this hook. Miss Wood has been a true friend to us and we appreciate the kind guidance which she has given through our four years. We found it hard to phrase in Words what we wanted to say about Miss Wood. lVe wrote and discarded-and tried again-and still the words did not satisfy us. And then one student came in and, picking up the picture, casually said for us- HThe1'e's Miss Wcrofll My, sheis sure done an awful lot of good for a lot of peoplef' Think back, your memory is the alhum which stores those lirst pliotogruphir flashes of Gorham. Now you hzlvo that clear cut pifvlurf-r of the village. You rem.'all that little cluster of stores, the winding hill, and your oxpcclzlricy us you wzmtecl to turn the corner for the first glimpse of your school. You cauglit two laughing students Skipping down the rozlcl. Then . . . you drunk in the hilltop hulhvfl in Autumn. Lct's stand for at moment in the keenncss of Hrst rclneinlnances. You think of the Sunday when all of you , 7 . . N . N . -- c o is s, ,a no ics unf ,ontfrcf u ion- Mthdtttll lthgt alists, mingled, going down town to wor- ship. You see your church, ll laltivc work of sunlight und lrcc shuclows. Then one ol the folks you met in church asked you to visit them . . . There you were on the doorstep, ringing the hell. The door opened and the odor of home eooking rushed out. lnside, you felt at home once more. During the years you got to know these people. They were interested in things going on at the Hill and you kept thorn posted. You recall too, the talks and discussions you held over the Russell Bill, and the lit- tle town hall where you dropped in to notch meetings. During those four years you saw the towng its people, adults and children alike growing and building to- ward a democratic future-and you, you were growing too. DR. FRANCIS L.

S nw 1, WE WHILE WE W WH ISTLE ORK GPH Last September the sophomores came back to Gorham with more confidence and eagerness than they had had the year before. They renewed old friendships and began new ones with the freshmen. Some class members were fortu- nate enough to have little sistersn to introduce to Gorham. At an early fall meeting Dot Davis was elected President, Bob Hub- bard was elected vice-president, Eleanor Nelson secretary and Es- Iiella Pedersen treasurer. Joan Cate was elected representative to the Civic Council and Margery Totman to the W.A.A. Board. Mrs. King was chosen as the class advisor. Richard McDonald and ,loan Cate were members of the advisory committee to work with the oliicers. 11 Their Wa At Thanksgiving time the class took the responsibility of Hlling a basket for a needy family in Gor- ham. The sophomore class was well rep- resented in all extra-curricular activities this year as well as last. Not only were they members, as they were last year, but they also had the responsibility of being of- ficers and committee members in many organizations. Partly be- cause of the great activity of so many members in leadership of other groups, no exclusively soph- omore. show was presented this year. The annual outing, a class picnic, was held in the late spring. The advisory committee and ol- ficers have made many plans for next year and next year's junior class is set for an early and en- thusiastic start for another year. WI: Love 'ro STUDY! Egg Refi Q?

The Hrst few days after registration we became acquainted with new 'faculty and student members. We also renewed friendships of past years. Our class was fortunate in receiving its share of returned veterans, from whom we chose Don Pierce as President. Other officers elected were Vice-President Betty Field, Treasurer Nellie Ames, and Secretary Maureen Rogan. Mr, Bassett, our ,former advisor, was gone and we elected lVlr. Martin as our new sponsor. Thus he- gan the year we had been waiting for-we could elect the subjects of our choice. Many of us en- rolled in family, poetry and U. S. history courses. As we settled in the fall a few of us invaded the seclusion of fourth floor East and today its atmos- phere is one of golden silence. Aheml During the fall and throughout the year our class- mates established themselves in sports and dormi- tory living. In sports we gave Nellie Ames who distinguished herself by becoming President of the W.A.A. Bea Heal was President of the House Corn- mittee and peace and quiet reigned when she walked the corridor. Half of the year gone-back from mid-year holi- days with fresh resolutions to study and-study. Some begin student-teaching-the rest, who will do our teaching next year, remained on the Hill and attended classes and helped conduct chapel. June-a few of us leaving with treasured certifi- cates-the rest holding out for degrees. The Junior Class today feels proud and confident that it can follow in the footsteps of the fine graduating class of 1947. Here's good luck to the class of 1948!

In September each year a g, registration day is held and all girls ten and older are invited to join Camp Fire. The girls learn the importance of the home and skills of home making. They give service in their community, in the Red Cross drives, Health Seal campaigns, sponsoring annual Wrhite Gift service for Gorham Welfare, assisting in lVlemorial Day exercises and many other activities. They learn about the out of doors through hiking, ski- ing and cooking meals in the open. They go on weekend camping trips and trips to nearby places of in- terest. In all Ways they strive to follow the law which is Worship God, Seek Beauty, Give Service, Pursue Knowledge, Be Trust- worthy, Hold on to Health, Glorify Work and Be Happy. ART CLUB SAMUEL A.

SAMUEL Bnocxro The Art Club this year started oil in its usual lively manner, with promise of an- other active year. President Lucy Herrick called the first meeting to order the second week of school. After serious discussion, and with the previous year's success in mind, plans were drawn up for another puppet show. New plays were written by the members, new puppets were made and old ones rehabilitated and scenery and background constructed. It was planned to exhibit the show at schools and clubs around Gorham. During National Art Wleek the club spon- sored an exhibition of Arts and Crafts in the Art Room. During this week they also presented a tea which many school and townspeople attended. The earnest zeal of the Freshmen and other members of the club has helped to make it strongly united and active. All members, both old and new, are looking forward to the banquet which comes at the end of the school year.

Last year's president, Margaret Hague, was again re-elected with Margaret Lind- sey as Vice-president, Dorothy Davis, Secretary, Betty Berg, Treasurer, Venita Conant, accom- panist, and Caroline Wfescott, representative to the Civic Committee. Our first project for this year was the Christ- mas Cantata, The Slory of Christmas by Alex- ander Matthews. VV ith the assistance of the new- ly organized Menys Glee Club we presented our annual Christmas program on Sunday evening, December 15 at Russell Hall. A small group, representing both the Menis and the Girls' Club gave a half-hour musical pro- gram at the Kiwanis Club in VVestbrook. MIRIAM E. ANDREWS Columbia University, HS., NLA. Also, the Woodlords Club extended another in- vitation lor us to sing, as we had done the year previously. A group of thirty went in to the Club and enjoyed u grand supper before our program. Several selections were given by both Clubs with special solos by Noreen Fuller, Kathleen Ouel- lette and John Alden. The Portland Rotary Club requested a musical program at their luncheon on lvlklflfll 28. The entire Glee Club was invited. This was our last public performance. Although Easter Sunday morning we were asked to take part in a Sunrise broadcast service at Portland, it was impossible for the Club to attend because ol' the school vacation. Hessen?-sh Hg ,- iMENS GLEE CLUB fxf -1 One lovely September morning we heard the fa- miliar question in chapel, Are there any faculty announcements? and Miss Andrews' announce- ment that on Tuesday afternoon there would be a meeting of the Men's Glee Club. Wliat brought about this amazing announcement? That's right! The men were attending colleges again and G.S.'l'.C. was no exception. When the sound of unfamiliar male voices floated through the corridors of Corthcll, faculty and students alike stopped working and-just lis- tened to the rich, satisfying harmony. The men contributing were: 'llenors Earle Young, Clinton Sampson, Donald Bisbee, Link Anderson, Fran- cis Lucey and Donald Doyle. 2nd Tenors Richard Beard, Alfred Cereste, ,lo- seph Dechesnes, Philip Kimball, Elwin Briggs, Charles Jorgensen, Philip .lames and Arthur Berry. lst Basses Maurice Morrow, Ronald Murphy, Donald Lindsey, George Sanborn, Paul Apgar, Gerald Hoar, Robert Hogan and Frederick Brad- ford. 2nd Basses Arthur Greer, John Alden, Raymond Flagg, and Donald Pierce. Faculty and students were given an opportunity to hear the men one chapel service. Later the men worked hard to get the Cantata ready for a Christmas recital, given by the combined Glee Clubs. The men have enjoyed singing at different clubs throughout the surrounding vicinity including the Kiwanis Club in WestlJ1'ook, the Woodford's Club in Woodfords and the Lion's Club in Port- land. -my The Young Womenis Christian Associa- tion began the year of 1946-1947 with greater emphasis on the threefold pur- pose: 4'to realize full and creative life through a growing knowledge of God, to have a pa1't in making this life pos- sible for all people, and to seek to un- derstand ,lesus and follow Himf, A former student of Gorham, Florence Barron, returned to visit us and give us a little insight on carrying out the pur- pose ol our organization. The three commissions: Christian Belief, World Relatedness, and Community Responsi- bility, have furnished some excellent programs and discussion groups. The annual projects of the Y.W.C.A., such as: Freslunan Week, W.S.S.F. drive, the Bazaar, and Cabinet Retreat, were car- ried out successfully. Student Christian Movement conferences were attended by some of our members, with a few Fresh- men already learning the workings of our association.

A. which had been inactive since 19412. It took a few meetings to get the ball roll- ing but finally a committee was selected to Write a new constitution and we sent our delegate to the Civic Council. Our next problem was the election of ofiicers. Due to the fact that all the sportsminded upperclassmen were out practice teaching it was decided to make an exception and vote underclassmen as officers. Harold Tex,7 Huston was elected manager, with Asst. Managers Clarence Coombs and Ray F lagg. We were again in the New England Teachers Conference and also scheduled games with Port- land Junior College. M.A.A. also sponsored dances after each home game with lively music by the M.A.A. band.

The purpose of the Men's A.A. at Gorham is to further sportsmanship, and to encourage in- terclass activities. The honorable members are Dr. Francis Bailey, Charles Martin and Everett Packard. The uHilltopper's baseball team took the field decked out in new uniforms, with Coach Jim Gilman at the helm, Managers Huston and Coombs worked out the fifteen game schedule. Cross-country, track, and tennis and inter-class sports were planned. -3 WOMENS A. A. l .

At the home basketball games Alice Adams and Irene Belisle sold candy and ice cream to raise money. Outing Club This year the Outing Club under the lead- ership of President Dorothy Miller played a prominent role in the college sports pro- gram. Within the year each member is required lo participate in twenty hikes, be it at dawn or dusk. The most important function of the club, as always, was the Annual Winter Carnival and Ball held the fifteenth of February. Janice Gillis reigned as Carnival Queen over the festivities. This year a new system of directors was instituted to organize the activities, some of which are as follows: skiing, skating, snow- shoeing, tobogganing, socials, biking, pub- licity, hiking and a basketball tournament sponsored for the Junior High Schools for the locality.

S. T. C. had been concentrated on xnen's competitive basketball there was a need at the beginning of the season for an organized cheer-leacling squad. The lV.A.A. Board lbV0lIlCIliS Athletic Association? undertook the responsibility of sifting out seven competent 1-hecrleadors from 27 candidates. The candidates tried out in groups of live or six be- lorc the W.!X.A. who chose individuals from the groups for their ability in leading cheers. The hnal lest was for those dozen or more girls chosen to lead the student body with cheers. Since many of the girls showed good leadership, the Board was faced with il close decision. The alternates were to replace regular cheerleaders in emergencies. At the first Farmington game the cheerleaders coveted the unity of the appearance of the rival squad. Our Gorham girls besieged Dr. Bailey and the W.A.A. Board for permission to buy wool and to make uniforms. Permission was granted and each cheerleader made her own forest green uniform with a kick pleat skirt and a matching blazer jacket bound with white cord. All organizations face handicaps. The cheer- leaders had been chosen late in the basketball season and had inherited very few cheers. With Bea Heal as manager they worked as a coopera- tive unit. Practicing faithfully, they were able to introduce one or two original cheers for each game and to lead the student body in supporting the basketball team.

Ann Cummings served as coun- selor. t UCK OUT THB MXGHTY C5105 HAS NOT STR Field Hockey For the first time in three years field hockey was back on the list of activities.

The outstanding moment of arch- ery was the one when an enthus- iastic archer, in the excitement of aiming, overshot the target and al- most deprived Gorhnm of a couple of students. Tennis The social life of the college was centered at the tennis courts dur- ing the warm afternoons of ln- dian summer. The spectators, who found shade near a young pine tree, watched the heated matches of enthusiastic tennis players. The skill of the returned veterans, who offered instructive opposition to the girls, was especially worthy of the attention of the on-lookers.

This resulted in the election ol Francis Lucey, President, Virginia Martin, Vice-president, Margaret Lindsey, Secre- tary and Paul Dorr, Treasurer. ' The first extra activity of the year was the Record Party at Ginny lVlartin's house This added 28 new records to our collefc- tion. An informal party was held in Cor- thell Rec Room early in December to work on the Christmas Project, which was to send clothes and toys to a needy rural school at Eagle Lake. Weekly free coffees were held and ice cream was sold once a week. A buflfet supper preceded the home Farm- ington game, which commuters attended en masse.

'l'H0lVlAN University of Colorado Technicians Membership in the Teclniicians group shifted from play to play, but many club members en- joyed the fun of working backstage during the season. New sound effects and equipment, ward- robe collections and refurbishing of permanent properties were part of the activities of this group, which must be credited with much of the success of any dramatic production. Vtfriters The Writers, Club, which began as a part of the Dramatic Club for those interested in writing plays, soon found that many members were in- terested in beginning their study with funda- mentals. Members brought stories, poems and essays as well as dramatic ' scripts to the monthly evening meeting. Each author read his composi- tion, listened tothe vigorous analysis and criti- cism of the others, and usually discovered that he came away with a new urge to write. As an experimental venture Write1's, Club spon- soned a two-week project of a mimeographed daily paper, The Hilltopperf' and received many favorable comments. Members hope that next year Hnancial arrangements can be made to support a paper throughout the year. By their second year the Writers also hope to be ready to offer some original scripts for the Play- ers that will be worthy of the traditions of Dra- matic Association. HOUSE COMMITTEE Each Wednesday night the House Commit- tee members amble into the Robie Recep- tion room for their meeting. The Secretary assigns the weekly duties- mail, lights, and bells. Current business is then taken up-it may be a sale, fire drill, party, or misdemeanor of some student. The House Committee is the student gov- ernment of the dorm and can only work efficiently when they have the cooperation of all girls. The two members chosen from each floor in the dormitories by vote of the students, work with the Deans in maintaining a happy life and a sense of consideration for others.

We were now Hstudent teachersn- but we couldn't forget that we were also in for a new period of orientation. How- ever, the following two weeks banished our fears.

At the campus school we found that we learned more in a week about teaching situations than we would from years of study of it. Down here we got a chance to apply some of that upsychologyn we had heard about. We had fun, too, di- recting, participating, and helping the children in their activities. We came away from the Campus School with a feeling of a gain-and a loss. In former years the Green and White pre- dents.

Oh I must go back o'er the hill again, for lim called by the thrill of a ride. I forget the loss of a bamboo pole, and then I start a slide. Backward I go, till a mound of snow braces me to a stop And then I remember the herring bone, and wend my way to the top. Oh I must glide over the hill again, for it only takes a minute So I note the steel of the glossy crust and the next thing I know I'm in it, Covered from head to foot with lace all cut and raw And I watch the others twirling down, in a melancholy awe. All I ask is an ambulance, and a stretcher to come quickly, But I crawl back up oier the hill again, and wonit admit l'm sickly. M.
