With the Juniors Whoosh! The 1955 - 1956 school year for the Juniors starts off with a bang! After tackling the hard courses of our Junior year, we discover that there are also many outside activities in which to participate. So off we go seeking adventure, new skills, and fun to make our year complete. In both boys’ and girls’ sports as well as an abun- dant supply of musical talent, our class is able to claim some of Gould's outstanding people. Sev- eral talented new members of the Junior class have been discovered to add to the ever growing and improving list. This fall the outcome of our elec- tions for class officers President Vice-President Secretary T reasurer was as follows: Elizabeth Stevens Jack Reid Patsy Elliman Bill Beebe In our varied Junior class, we believe that each member has a certain characteristic which is most prominent among the rest!

JEAN VON ENDE, '59 JOHN VINTON, 59 48 THE ACADEMY HERALD Gehring Hall In Gehring Hall, 7:00 a.m. is the un- mentionable hour when the rising bell rings in a new day, and sleepy-eyed girls unwillingly climb from their warm beds to face the world. That is, every day ex- cept Saturday. This is the day of the cherished sleep-over, and the dorm is us- ually in dead quietness until some ambi- tious soul decides to move furniture, and in doing so wakes the other girls. It is now Saturday morning in the dorm, and we find the girls performing a wide variety of antics which should prove interesting. Let’s look in! Coming upstairs and stopping at the first door, one is greeted by Val Kelch’s victrola blatting Daddy-O as she merrily cavorts around the room, while Hallie, still bleary-eyed, feebly attempts to make her bed in rhythm to the music. The next room is in total darkness. Who could it be? None other than Ann Boardway and Eleanor Merriam. The sleeping beauties are snoring peacefully. Down in a hall by themselves, we find a very weird assortment! Mary Alice Chandler is laboriously untangling her clothes that got mangled in the washing machine, but Jeanne Gallagher, lying in bed with her eyes only half open, gropes blindly for the clock to see if she has to get up yet. Patty Irving and Anna Chandler are arguing already about whose fault it was that they left the window open and froze last night, while next to them Martha Da- land stumbles out the door to see what time it is and get some water to throw at Cleta Waldron who vows she’ll never get up. Barbara Schaefer and Anne Desautels have their room spotless already, and are preparing for their Saturday morning trip uptown, but Eleanor Moody and Nancy Bales are so engrossed in listening to WRUM that cleaning is forgotten. Could that be little Judy Graffman THE ACADEMY HERALD 49 making all that noise, or is it her room- mate Nancy Hibbard? At any rate, their neighbors, Marty Myers and Connie Rus- sell, are pleading for a little peace and quiet so they can sleep longer. Their motto: Never clean now if you can sleep and clean later!” Virginia Bergeron and Mary Huffer can be seen trudging out of their room with a huge rug that must be taken outside to be shaken. Is it worth it? You avoid walking directly in front of the next door, as you invariably get hit with a dust mop that Betsy Wood is usu- ally shaking at this time of the morning. Sylvia Cram, her senses not quite up to par yet, stands in the middle of the floor for- lornly holding a dust cloth. Somehow, Sue Andrews and Jean Ernst seem to have their room cleaned al- ready. It must’ve been a miracle that got these two up so early. What is this specimen of womanhood? Why, it's Margo McKenzie! Who else looks so lovely at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday? Eleanor Hardy seems to have a little more life as she pops a jazz record on the vie. The end of the hall means one thing. Betty Murrell and Jane Yeaton are drag- ging their rug out into the hall and sweeping the dust off, and into 24 other rooms. It never fails. Ann Ferris, who has stepped out of her room to shake the mop out the window gets considerably more in her face than outside, much to the amusement of Dianne Mitchell who slams the door quickly to keep out the flying dirt. We climb another flight of stairs to third hall, which is much more alive than second at this time of the morning, and come first to a group of rooms commonly known as Sophomore Villa. Everyone is up, but needless to say, no one is ready for inspection. Sara Ault is practicing headstands (and ruining her bedsprings), while Judy Brown is on hand with some classic comments. Carolyn McDuffie, in the meantime, holds the door open for Connie Chase who is vigorously sweeping the dirt out. Which is it kids, no waste- basket or no energy to put it in the wastebasket? Judy Watson, who had to wait on at some ghastly hour, has crawled back into bed to catch another forty winks; Jean von Ende, viewing the situation carefully, decides she’ll do the same, even though she’s not sleepy. The temptation is too great! Lo and behold, the next room is all ready. Sue Corcoran is lamenting the fact that she didn’t get up for breakfast and is now starved, but Meredith Bennett Doesn’t seem to mind: she’s busy check- ing off the days until vacation on her calendar. The next room finds four hungry souls, Sue Fossett, Sally Webber, Pat Phil- brook and Susan Dennison, all sitting around Indian style, munching crackers and cookies. Looks sort of like breakfast was missed. A loud shriek warns us that we are near the room of Bobbi Cummins and Mickey Appleton. Bobbi, who still isn’t used to the fact that she’s no longer in the Ara- bian desert, shrieks, shivers and pulls the covers around her neck, while Mickey, de- ciding she’ll freeze her out of bed, throws open the window. A flying female reminds us that we have just passed the room of Patsy Elli- man and Liz Stevens. Patsy is on her daily jaunt to borrow something from Betty, while Liz shouts from the door loud threats which she’ll execute if Patsy’s not back in five minutes to help clean the room. Strange sounds lead us to the room of Peggy Luke and Anita Morel, who have just discovered it is 9:45, and prepare to make like Ajax Vacuum Cleaners before the usual inspection hour of 10:00 rolls around. No one is home in Brenda Barlow and 50 THE ACADEMY HERALD Heath Sandbach’s room, but one could guess they are out enjoying their favorite pastime, horseback riding. One glance tells you that the occupants of the next room are in. Can you miss them? Edie Stevens seems to be more in- terested in throwing water cut the win- dow at someone than cleaning, and Pat Joslin, disregarding all this, is rigging up a contraption that will fall on people as they walk in the door. Leaving there while we still have a fighting chance, we cross the hall to where Tacy Hartley and Joan Fox reside. Tacy, torn between love and duty decides to pin up horse pictures instead of clean, so Joan, knowing only too well when she's licked, dutifully pushes the mop over the floor. Last but not least on the hall is the room occupied by Evelyn Sturcke and Hilda Hubbard, who are lounging on their beds, reading their mail. As we round the corner and start down- stairs we are met by Tali Burns who emerges from her room in ski clothes, ready for a morning at the hill, while Shirley Van Hyning gazes out the window and dreams of palm trees and white, sandy beaches. Our tour this morning has come to an end, but you can be sure that on any other Saturday morning you would be greeted in just about the same manner. In spite of the bleary eyes and dusty rooms you would agree that the girls behind them are well worth knowing. Martha Daland.

THE ACADEMY HERALD 51 Holden Hall and Farnsworth House We shall now participate in a swift round of the place the boys call home. From room one we hear hot jazz ac- companied by the over-loud drums of Bill Taillon. Les Biggins, wrapped in colorful turban and robe, looks on with that usual rab- bit-like expression. Going down the sophomore alley to the right, we find the remaining “wise fresh- men from last year. At the moment, George Goodloe is studying hard, probably for those exams next week. At the end of the corridor we find “Gus Whitten, Larry Bragg, and Bill Black engaged in a furious battle with those deadly weapons, nineteen cent water-pistols. Bill Galla- gher, Gus’ roommate? He’s over “wait- ing on,” but he’d be the star of the battle if he were here. Leaving this alley, we barge in on an exciting game of pool. Jon Jenckes and Terry Russell are standing Bill Ripley (the Banger kid) and Gates Ingram. Of course there is the usual argument over winners of Charlie Anderson and Jed Erskine versus Mike Ward and John Vin- ton. “Sometimes”, however, the fresh- men don’t get their winners anyway. Emerging from this place of great physical and mental recreation, we saunter down to the end of the main alley where we find Ricky Cummins and Alan Ordway. Be- tween Ricky’s colorful displays from Ara- bia and Al's skiing trophies and Boy Scout awards, the boys have one of the most scenic rooms in the dorm. Leaving their door, we turn right and descend to the basement where we hear music (?) emitting from the main room. Upon investigating, we find Howard West beating out “Down Yonder” on the piano 52 THE ACADEMY HERALD 1 while Russ Patterson adds his version of the same with a trumpet. ’Course part of the time you’ll catch both of them in the butt-room along with Steve Randall. John Day, and Howard Brush. Those butt fiends! Now we shall ascend to the second floor, home of the boys who use shaving cream for shaving. (?) The first room around to the right, the washroom, would vouch for that. In the first room we enter, we find Jere Snell and Dave Knight discussing the prospect of the forthcoming basketball games. As of now, Dave has racked up an average of over 20 points per game. Barging into the next room we find clothes heaped everywhere. At first glance, we recognize this paraphernalia as that belonging to Bill Anderson and Joel Stevens. Joel has just shoved off to the kitchen where he is chief bottle-washer. Bill has just ascended from the ski room where he has been adjusting his skis to those new number twelves. Dan Lane has been writing letters to those girls in Massachusetts while his radio operates at full volume, with competition from next door. John Giddings has just skidded to a stop, after basketball practice, at the farther end of his room and is about to become lost in an old issue of Popular Science’’, which he probably hooked from me when I wasn’t looking. Craig Dore sits, paralyzed by the music emitting from his roommate Dave Knight’s recording of the Student Prince. Stan Cornwall is just embarking on his daily journey to the girls' dorm. Bob Crane and Norm Hill have just finished a furious wrestling match in which John Manter from next door was referee. Of course, John took sides dur- ing part of the battle, receiving a worse beating than either of the other boys. Mouse’’ Myhrman is carrying out the usual procedure for this part of the day, studying, most of it being post-academic French in which he is a wizard. Harry Reid and Joe Watson are mop- ping up a quarter of an inch of water which completely covers their floor, they and Howard Brush having just finished a fight with a water filled balloon. It ap- pears that Howard threw it too hard the last time. Around the corner we find Jeff DiBiaso has just run off an album of Spike Jones and is about to put one of Nat King Cole’s on his Hi-Fi set. His roommate, Alan Lamson has just dragged in from another day of ski jumping. Oh. well, if he hadn’t helped cover the jump with snow yester- day, he wouldn’t be dragging his weary carcass in now. My roommate, Alden Bradley, is fixing himself up for the usual trip uptown with his companion from the girls’ dorm. Taking a turn to the right, we enter the brilliantly lighted abode of Bill Beebe and Rod Barlow. Bill, another fellow from Arabia, is an expert drummer. (?) Rod is writing letters while Bill accompanies his records with his drums. Next door we find Jack Reid, another ski enthusiast, throwing boots and clothes in every direction as he tries to get in a shower to enable him to head for the girls’ dorm before 5:00 p.m. We find Albion Beverage in Joe Bren- chick’s room, trying, apparently without effect, to explain that tough history assign- ment for tomorrow. Joe seems more in- terested in just sitting and staring at his walls. I can’t say that I blame him! This concludes our tour of Holden Hall. Descending the back stairs, we shall stroll to Farnsworth House (better known as the field house), where we shall visit the remaining freshmen under the super- vision of Mr. and Mrs. Emery. Here is Bill Thoms, pulling some new trick. He’s well known for his playful THE ACADEMY HERALD 53 actions, but ho sometimes picks on the most innocent bystanders! Steve Karpcwich is trying to adjust his skiis in his room, with slight difficulties. Tim Hutchinson and Vance Bunker are having their usual battle on Bunker’s re- inforced bed. Linwood Small we find studying, even though the commotion at times distracts his attention.

Student Council The Student Council is an administra- tive organization, active for the past eleven years, whose members are elected each year by the student body. This group, working in conjunction with its faculty advisors, Miss Colby, Mr. Myers, Mr. Brewster, and Mr. Vachon, supervises student activities, and discusses the various problems emanating from the students or faculty. Their many tasks include selecting special morning assem- blies, maintaining the school bulletin board, and the selection of magazines for the library. Among the outside activities, they sponsor the annual Christmas formal, sell tickets at athletic events, and select ushers for any affairs where they are needed. The money spent for authorized activ- ities, which is raised by the Student Ac- tivity program, is approved by the Coun- cil. They also are the final authority on the spending of any of the Student Ac- tivity fee for non-budgeted sums. The officers who were elected last fall, are: President, David Willard: Vice President. Valarie Kelch: Secretary, San- dra Myers, and Treasurer, Bartlett Hutch- inson. This group is composed of representa- tives from each of the four classes and is the clearing house for ideas suggested by any student for the improvement of cur- rent activities or the initiation of new programs.

The Blue As twilight of the Blue and Gold’s fourteenth year of publication approaches, many new and varied topics are found locked between its printed pages. The co-editors, Valerie Kelch and San- dra iVIyers, and their assistant editor, Ann Hastings, have completed a splendid job. They inspired new names and titles for the departments, placing particular em- phasis on the Girls' Sports by providing this section with its own headlines. The editorial column walked along a different pathway this year, getting away from the general topic of “school spirit” and broadening into wider interests. Every person on the staff has his own particular contribution to make; it is his and Gold responsibility to fulfill his job to the best of his knowledge and capacity. ‘Behind the Desk Cover’ gives glimpses of the personal’’ happenings of the students. The ‘Someone Worth Know- ing’ column deals with the outstanding seniors. 'Fashions of the G.A. Campus’ gives a report on the styles that appear around the school. Here we learn through doing, which is a part of the new progressive education system. Our paper is absolutely uncen- sored and, we hope, always in the best of good taste. The Blue and Gold is an out- let for the ones who are talented writers, for those who wish to express an idea or thought to the school: it gives those on 58 THE ACADEMY HERALD the staff many inspiring experiences as well as fun.

Musical Activities The Chapman Club began the musical year by giving an assembly program in the fall which was designed to convey to all the purpose of the Chapman Club, which is to provide an opportunity for those in- terested in fine music to exhibit their tal- ents and to gain a better knowledge of the different phases of music. The varied program contained music of interest to everyone. Music appreciation lectures were carried on throughout the fall season under the leadership of Mr. Marcuse. At these meetings, discussions were held about sym- phonic works and the various vocal com- positions sung in different languages. With several new members, the Gould band played with added zest this year either marching in formation down the football field, sitting in the gym, or at a concert. The new uniforms of the high- stepping majorettes lent an air of smart- ness to the group. The four glee clubs, the Freshman- Sophomore Girls, Junior-Senior Girls. Boys’ Glee Club, and the Varsity, were important parts in all programs. The Varsity Glee Club, which consists of the best girls’ and boys’ voices at Gould, was prominent in the Parents’ Day Exhibition 60 THE ACADEMY HERALD and in the Spring Concert. All the glee clubs were distinctively impressive at the traditional Christmas Vesper Service. The music was correlated with scripture read- ings of the nativity story. This service was recorded and rebroadcast over WRUM in Rumford, Maine. The Mikado , by Gilbert and Sulli- van. presented in the William Bingham Gymnasium on March 27 by the glee clubs under the musical direction of Mr. Mar- cuse and the dramatic coaching of Miss Valeria Kimball, was one of the most elaborate productions ever staged at Gould. The constant practice of all to attain per- fection in this operetta was appreciated by everyone who attended the performance. The soloists were James Murphy, Howard West, James Whynaught, Harriet Stevens, Eleanor Merriam, Betty Murrell, Charles Merrill, Martha Myers, and Cleta Wal- dron. The piano accompanists were Carla Grover and Dawne Christie. Several girls and boys, outstanding members of the band and of the different glee clubs, represented Gould at the Western Maine Music Festival held in South Paris in January. The annual Spring Concert was held in May. The theme under which the glee clubs sang was Negro Spirituals.” Much solo work combined with the renditions of larger groups made this concert out- standing in entertainment. The musical organizations of the school contributed much to make this a success- ful year at Gould Academy. Dawne Christie, 58 CHAPMAN CLUB Front row.

French Club This year the French Club officers ap- pointed were as follows: President. Hallie Stevens: Vice President, Eleanor Merriam; Secretary, Martha Myers; and Treasurer, Margo McKenzie. In the French Club throughout the many meetings the members have been avid participants in French games, work- ing on the very unique French Scrapbook, and giving interesting reports on French Literature. During the meetings the leaders try to vary the program to suit individual interests with records, games, movies, and even comedy excerpts from such books as Cornelia Otis Skinner’s gay Parisian story, Our Hearts were Young and Gay. One of the festivities of the French Club was the jovial Christmas Party. Jokes were exchanged as “gifts”, each con- taining a French verse. Yule logs and punch provided delicious refreshments. Also during the Christmas season a group of merry French students sang traditional French Carols to many of the families in Bethel. A gay party based on the idea of “Springtime in Paris” was the big night of the year for the club. The French Club worked very hard to make this party a success for everyone in school, succeeding admirably. THE ACADEMY HERALD 63 Another bright spot was the picnic held in the spring, at which the students played crazy games and ate with gusto. With Miss Colby’s assistance, the French club has been an interesting and worth- while organization, furthering the knowl- edge of French customs, literature and people, through educational reports, movies, and articles.

This person, nine times out of ten, will be an officer of Gould Acad- emy’s Camera Club, one of whose jobs it is to record the various events of the school. As soon as possible the film is rushed to the darkroom, located in the basement of Holden Hall, where it is de- veloped, washed, and dried. After three or four days, you will see the pictures be- ing sold around the school by club mem- bers. The club was started fourteen years ago. Since then, there has been a steady flow of interest concerning it. Each fall, of- ficers are selected for the coming year. This year's results are as follows: President, Al- den Bradley; Vice Presidents, Ronald Willard and Eleanor Moody: Secretaries, Hilda Hubbard and Virginia Bergeron: Treasurers, Howard West and Larry Bragg. Beginning in September, club meetings are held every other Tuesday, a total of sixteen this year. At these meetings one of the following usually is seen: a movie on films, lenses, etc.; slide talks given by some of the members; a demonstration on contact prints, composition, chemicals, etc., by either some of the officers or mem- bers. Of course, these meetings would not function so smoothly if it were not for the expert talks and demonstrations given us by the club’s advisor, Mr. Gayle A. Foster. Members and non-members alike are able to buy photographic supplies at the school store at huge discounts. Members also are entitled to use the two darkrooms, one in the girls’ dorm and the other in the boys’ dorm, whenever they want to de- velop or enlarge their own films and prints. Of course a slight fee is charged for the use of the darkrooms and materials, but a lot of money is saved, nevertheless. Members of the club also have the op- portunity of learning by helping with the making of prints as a group project when a large number have been ordered. For this they receive free prints. Contests are another branch of the club’s work. The first one held this year was won by Dennis Robertson, who was given a book on photography for his crossword puzzde employing photographic terms. Various other contests took place throughout the year. Another useful activity is the experi- ence the members get in preparing prints for the Academy Herald, the Blue and Gold, for local church work, and for local and other newspapers. Toward the end of May, preparation was begun for the Annual Show in which were displayed prints made in other years, prints made by club members this year, and some exceptionally good ex- amples of photographic work done by pro- fessionals outside of the club. The show will be held from the 3rd to the 10th of June, and everyone should come and see what a fine job the club is doing. In conclusion, many thanks are extend- ed to Mr. Foster, the officers, and the mem- bers of the club for a very successful year.

Future Homemakers of America One of the most helpful and well- known organizations for girls at Gould Academy is the Future Homemakers of America, more commonly known as the F. H. A. This group of girls who are eager to develop their homemaking talents holds its regular meetings once a month. Also, this year the freshman, sophomore, and junior-senior home economics classes have organized class groups which hold meet- ings every Friday. The chairmen of these groups for the first half of this year have been: freshmen, Jo-Ann Roderick: soph- omores, Kaye Blake; junior-senior, Vir- ginia Bergeron. The present officers are: President, Arlene Chase; Vice-President, Eleanor Moody; Secretary, Deanna Rugg: Treasurer, Sandra Olson; Historian, Bar- bara Plummer; Song Leader, Glenyce Berry; Reporter, Carolyn Tibbetts: Par- liamentarian, Jane Yeaton. In November, Jo-Ann Roderick, Vir- ginia Bergeron, Deanna Rugg, Kaye Blake, and Eleanor Moody attended the regional meeting in Buckfield, at which Deanna was elected the district chairman for next year. The theme of this meeting was “We Work THE ACADEMY HERALD 67 Together to Develop Stronger Chapters.” The girls went to the State Convention held at Augusta in April last year. Are You a Leader for Better Homes?” was the theme of this convention. At their regular meetings, since the hil- arious initiation of fifty-eight new mem- bers in October, they have worked on the following projects: rolling bandages for the Red Cross, earning money by food sales to send to Care, preparing families for Civil Defense emergencies, studying a safety program for the school and home, keeping the school tidy through a school beautification plan, planning family rec- reation, and improving baby-sitting tech- niques. In all their work, the girls strive to accomplish six purposes and goals set up for them by the National F.H.A. I) To promote a growing appreciation of the joys and satisfactions of homemaking: 2) To emphasize the importance of worthy home membership; 3) To en- courage democracy in home and com- munity life: 4) To promote interna- tional good-will; 5) To work for good home and family life for all: 6) To foster the development of creative leader- ship in home and community life. 7) To provide a wholesome individual and group recreation: 8) To further interest in home economics.

I'm a Fool , the first of the three one- act plays to be put on, was a humorous little story set in the early 1900’s at a racetrack where George, Jerry Smith, a green teen-age youth, is bent on getting his education at the track: opposed vio- lently to this are his mother, Mary Jane Spinney, and his sister, Glenyce Berry. Bill Taillon, the polished dude, brings George’s sneers when he arrives on the scene and threatens to take the attention of George’s sister and the two lovely young ladies, Elinor, Betty York, and Lucy, Dawne Christie, who are at the track with Lucy's brother Wilbur, Jon Day. In a manner different from most light stories, everything does not end too happily, and, alas, George’s pretenses snarl him up, sacrificing the potential friendship of lovely Lucy. After frantic changing of props, the cur- tain went up on The Roman Kid , the story of a New York TIMES sports re- porter, Tommy, Bart Hutchinson, as he hunts for information about ancient box- ing matches in Rome. In his quest he meets a very charming Austrian girl, Leni, Connie Russell, and, after getting ac- quainted, proceeds to help her father, Danny Lane, the curator of a museum, out of a difficulty with two other archeolo- gists, Herbie Morton and Howard Brush. Everything turns out pleasantly, though, and at the play’s end. Tommy, as Mrs. Alfredo, Nancy Haines, has suggested, is making plans to marry Leni and take her back to New York. Mrs. Harper's Bazaar”, a play con- cerning a group of harried members of the B.O.E., a ladies’ club under the leadership of high-strung and bustling Mrs. Harper. Arlene Coolidge, wound up the evening. With shy, wide-eyed Mrs. Gwyn-Wil- liams, Judy Graffman. talkative Mrs. Tearose, Anna Chandler, and the town mortician's wife, Mrs. Spindler, Ann Boardway, the story raced along, watch- ing all the middle-aged ladies as they com- mitted faux pas after faux pas in their haste to entice snobbish Hollywood glam- our queen, Honey Walters, Mary Alice Chandler, to stay and unveil a statue of a mule, dedicated by the high-browed Mrs. Cunliffe, Susan Corcoran. Finally, after another incident during which Mrs. Harper’s niece, Suzanne Dale, Barbara Leach, finds money to get to New York, Mrs. Tearose is lucky enough to contact her famous actress relative, Fay Ellis, Patsy Elliman, to take the place of the deserting Honey Walters. The bazaar is successful in the end after a mixup in furs is frantically taken care of, and the mule is finally ready to be unveiled. Margaret Rolfe played the role of Ginger, a teen-age scamp, in the Class of ’56’s Senior Play, Time Out for Ginger. Among those aiding her in the obvious success of this comedy were Eleanor Mer- riam as Agnes, her “hale fellow well met” mother, and Matts Myhrman, as Howard, her harassed father. Ginger’s intellectual boy friend, Tommy, played by Ray Cou- lombe, was quite a comparison to the foot- ball hero boy friend of her sister, Joan, Mary Chandler: taking the part of this rather brainless, brawny athlete was Jeff DiBiaso. Liz, Ann Boardway, was more like a family member than a maid, having as much say-so in matters as Jeanne, the sixteen-year-old daughter, or even Mr. Hoffman, Howard West, Howard's boss. Mr. Wilson, Danny Lane, the school principal, had to suffer with the three sis- THE ACADEMY HERALD 69 ters, and their crazy boy friends attend- ing his school. This play, which ended the dramatic productions of the year, was, needless to say, one of the big events of the school year, enjoyable from every aspect.

Football On the opening day of school, Coach Scott, assisted by Coaches Roderick and Kailey, met the many football candidates on the athletic field for the first day of practice. Two weeks later, the still un- polished but willing squad traveled to Mexico, where they were beaten by the almost veteran team, 20 - 0. On the following Saturday the Huskies played the South Paris gridsters at Bethel. After the hard-driving G. A. eleven had pushed the ball to the South Paris two yard line early in the game, Jim Murphy crashed over into pay dirt. The try for the extra point was missed. The visiting team soon evened the score, and success- fully made the extra point, this lone point to be the deciding one as South Paris won by the close score of 7-6. The next Saturday found Gould play- ing a tight battle against Norway. The game, played before a damp but pleased Parents’ Day crowd, ended with the Huskies on the bright side of a six to noth- ing score. On the opening kick-off full- back Bob Crane charged twenty-five yards to the forty yard line. Then on nine brilliant plays the fast moving eleven car- THE ACADEMY HERALD 73 ■ ried the ball into the end-zone. On the concluding play halfback A1 Lamson flashed around right end for the tally. Capt. Brush and Gerry Smith played out- standing ball on defense. Journeying to Lyndonville, Vermont, Gould dropped a hard-fought game to the scrappy gridsters of Lyndon Institute by the score of 16-13. In the first quarter fullback Gerry Smith crashed over for the first G. A. touchdown. Lamson’s con- version was good making the score 7-0, Gould. However, Lyndon fought back savagely, first tying the score and then go- ing into the lead 14-7. In the final period Gould ground out 70 yards, with Smith again plunging over for their final T.D. St. Francis proved to be a team worth honorable mention when they upset the Huskies by the score of 27-6. The only score for Gould came in the third period when halfback Jim Murphy galloped 34 yards for the T.D. The scheduled Cheverus game was can- celled because of numerous injuries on the Husky squad. In the final game the Huskies trounced their chief rival, Fryeburg, by the score of 23-7 on Fryeburg’s home field. In the opening minutes of the game a Reid to Jenckes pass clicked, bringing the pigskin deep into Fryeburg territory. Lamson followed by skirting right end for the touchdown; he then successfully kicked the extra point. The second Gould T.D. came in the second period when Lamson snagged another of quarterback Reid’s passes and sprinted into the end-zone. The extra point was again kicked successfully by Lamson. The third and final six-pointer occurred when Jim Murphy, following long gains by Gould’s speedy back-field, thundered over from the ten yard line. In the second half Gould tacklers broke through to score a safety. Seniors seen for the last time in the Blue and Gold uniforms were Capt. Howard Brush, Joel Stevens, Joe Watson, A1 Lam- son, Dan Lane, Bob Crane, Jeff DiBiaso, Rod Harlow, Dave Willard, Harry Reid and Ken Rafuse. We wish next year’s team, led by Cap- tain-elect Jim Murphy, the best of luck and a victorious season. Bill Gallagher, ’58 74 THE ACADEMY HERALD CROSS-COUNTRY, 195 5 From row.

Cross Country When the first half day of school was over, about fifteen boys met in the Field House for physicals and much encourage- ment from Coach Fossett. For three weeks the boys practiced, all being urged to take it easy for the first week or so. Sometimes they jogged over the course; other times they ran Devil's Kitchen and one or two laps. Once in a while time trials were held where the fellows really stretched out and gave it all they had. Slowly the lame, tender leg muscles be- came accustomed to the rigorous runs. The short winded soon became used to the 2'A to 3 mile courses. The first time trial was held; soon afterward the first meet was scheduled. On September 23 Gould met Dixfield for their first triumph, 43-20. Leading in the meet by 100 yards was Reginald Wing of Dixfield. Jodrey, Whitten, Rolfe. Manter, Grover, Smith, and Benson all followed for Gould. Dixfield placed ninth through fourteenth consecutively. Gould’s best runner, Phil Korhonen, was unable to run in this meet because of an injury inflicted during the summer. Thursday, October 13, found Gould at Portland High School in another meet. Korhonen. after trailing Portland’s best man for the whole course, broke away in a hundred yard dash to take first place. Portland’s Verrill and Norm Ivers took second and third places, but Grover, Jod- rey, Whitten, and Rolfe took places four through seven for an easy victory of 36-23. THE ACADEMY HERALD 75 The meet with Stephens High was can- celled by Rumford. The Fryeburg meet at Freyburg was Gould’s only dual meet defeat. True of Fryeburg took first place, with Korhonen a close second. Fryeburg took third and fourth while Gould’s Jodrey, Rolfe, and Grover grabbed fifth, sixth, and seventh. Places eight and nine fell to Fryeburg with B. Benson of Gould tenth. Gould lost 30-25. Gould outdistanced Hebron Academy for their final victory of 37-22 on October 26. Korhonen, as usual, placed first for Gould, about 20 yards behind Hebron's Moran. Gould's Jodrey and Rolfe placed third and fourth, with Langely of Hebron slightly ahead of Grover and Manter. Hebron was an almost sure bet for this, but they didn’t have what it takes. The consistent superior placing of Korhonen, just ahead of Jodrey and Rolfe. led the team to three out of four wins. In ’56 Gould should do well as we are losing only two runners, captain Frank Benson and this year’s letterman, John Manter. The other lettermen for this year, Phil Korhonen, Mel Jodrey, Guy Whitten, Eldred Rolfe, Dick Grover, and Brad Benson will all be back for next year. Good prospects for next year are Tim Carter, Linwood Small, and Everett Saunders. On his merit of his dependable placing, Phil Korhonen was chosen captain of the 1956 team. The State Meet was held on Thursday, November 3. The team started their journey to Orono at 7 a.m., setting off in the new bus and arriving at the University of Maine about 10:30 a.m. This year’s meet was divided into three divisions: Prep School, Class A, and Class B. Gould, which was in Class A, finished eleventh out of fifteen schools, with Kor- honen 22, Jodrey, Rolfe, Grover, and Manter following in that order. Richard Grover. ’58 76 THE ACADEMY HERALD 1956 BASKETBALL Front row, (left to right) : Fred Feitler; Dave Willard, capt.; Merle White; Dave Knight; Jon Jenckes; Dick Roberts. Back row; Ronald Willard, mgr.; Jim Murphy; Norm Hill; Guy Whitten: John Giddings; Rod Barlow; Coach Brewster. Basketball Strengthened by new material, the Gould Academy basketball team bettered its last year’s record by five wins as it won six of its fourteen contests under its new coach, Mr. Wendall Brewster. The Huskies were blessed with two newcomers well over six feet, Dave Knight and Jon Jenckes, who, along with veteran Merle White carried the scoring load. Dave Knight set a new school scoring record in the points per game department as he dunked 221 points in his twelve games at the center position. His 18% points per game tops the 1 8 set by Jerry Davis in 1949. Forwards Jenckes and White tallied 181 and 152 points re- spectively for game averages of 12 13 14 and 10 6 7. Dick Roberts and Captain Dave Wil- lard were the starters in the guard positions and scored 55 and 60 points from the backcourt. The team’s scoring punch couldn’t be denied as the Huskies’ rolled up a game average of little more than 55 points but lacked defensive strength as their op- ponents’ was more than 59. In eight Sun-Journal League games Gould won but three, finishing in the third place behind South Paris and Bridgton, both of which defeated Gould twice. A spirited Norway team also topped the Huskies nudging them 53-51 in what was probably Gould’s poorest showing of the season. This cost them a split with Norway for the season as Gould had won in the first outing 60-47. Gould’s best efforts were 66-50 and 60-56 wins over Mexico, a 43-42 win over Wilton, and a 49-48 loss to South THE ACADEMY HERALD 77 Paris, the league leaders. Reserves Jim Murphy, John Giddings, Rod Barlow, Norm Hill, and Guy Whit- ten saw important action as the season progressed. Fred Feitler and Jere Snell also saw some action. Absent from next year’s scene will be Dave Willard, Merle White, Dave Knight, Rod Barlow, and Norm Hill, all letter- men. Other lettermen, who will form the nucleus of the 1957 team are Dick Roberts, Jon Jenckes, Captain-elect John Giddings and Jim Murphy. Others to be counted on are Guy Whitten, Fred Feit- ler, and Jere Snell who will round out a promising squad. We wish them a suc- cessful season. Coach Bowhay’s junior varsity team supplied several men to the varsity during the season and gave invaluable experience to the younger players on the squad who will fill varsity positions in future years. Their record was seven wins and three losses. Of this year’s team, Ted White and Mike Stowell show considerable promise.

Winter Sports This year’s ski team, resplendent in new sweaters, was inconsistent but on the whole had a good year, hampered as it was by lack of practice caused by poor snow conditions. The team, ably coached by Mr. Kailey, was composed of Captain A1 Lamson, Ken Rafuse, Matts Myhr- man, Gerry Smith, Richard Saunders, Alan Ordway, Jigger Jodrey, Bill Ander- son, and Dave Fox, Stan Cornwall filling the post of manager. Lack of snow forcing the Holderness meet to be canceled, Gould’s first official competition came the next weekend at Lyndonville, Vermont, where the team scored a success. The cross country, in the morning, gave Gould the lead immed- iately, 97.2 to 92, with A1 Lamson plac- ing first, Jodrey third, Rafuse fourth, and Smith sixth. Since the alpine events were impossible with the snow conditions, the jumping was the deciding factor. Lyndon took the jumping, 98.34 to 96.30, but the final scores showed Gould on top 193.50 to 190.34. Lamson also copped the first position in jump, with Smith fourth, and Rafuse seventh. Edward Little played host for the skiers the next weekend at their Winter Carni- val, at which Rumford, Farmington, Ken- nett, and Berlin were present. Due to the poor snow conditions at Auburn, the downhill and slalom were run on Friday at Sugarloaf Mountain in Kingfield. At the end of the day Gould was in second place, trailing Farmington by approxim- ately ten points. In the downhill Lam- son was third, Ordway fourth, and Saunders ninth and in the slalom Lamson was again third, with Jodrey seventh, and Saunders eleventh. On Saturday, with Smith third, Lamson fifth, and Saunders 80 THE ACADEMY HERALD thirteenth in the jumping, Gould remained in second place, behind Farmington by about three points and leading E. L. by four-tenths of a point. A1 Lamson won the cross country but Gould’s next man, Jodrey was eighth putting us second in this event. The final tally showed that the spunky Farmington team had won the meet by .87 points, with E. L. second, and Gould a very close third. The Stephens High Winter Carnival came next on the schedule, but consisted of only three events, the slalom being can- celled because of poor conditions. Plac- ing first in the downhill, Lamson paced Gould to an early lead in this event, with Ordway third. Smith fourth, and Saun- ders tied for fifth. Tieing with E. L. for top honors in the cross country, Lamson placing second, Jodrey eighth, and Rafuse ninth, the Gould team was in the lead after these two events. On Saturday Gould took a third in the jump, E. L. and Stephens taking first and second, but the Huskies' previous margin left them in first place. Skimiester A1 Lamson took second in the jump, followed by Smith in fourth place, Rafuse in ninth, and Saunders in eleventh. The state Class A Championship brought Gould another first place trophy, the Huskies edging second place E. L. by 2.81 points. The Alpine events, held at Bridgton, left Farmington in first place with Gould second. Norm Twitchell of Farmington won both the downhill and slalom with Skimiester A1 Lamson plac- ing second in downhill and third in sla- lom. Smith and Ordway placed sixth and seventh in the downhill and Ordway and Jodrey placed tenth and twelfth in the slalom, adding to the team score. With two second places in the Nordic events Saturday at Andover, Gould became Class A champion. In cross country Lamson took top honors with Rafuse, Jodrey, and Smith placing eighth, ninth, and tenth. In the jump, Lamson was second to Mike Small of E. L. with Smith fourth, Jodrey tenth and Rafuse twelfth. The New England Interscholastic Ski Championship was held the next weekend at Lebanon, New Hampshire. Eleven teams from Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont were present at the meet which the polished Lebanon High team won by nearly fifteen points. The cross country was won by Danny Donovan of E. L. with Lamson second, Rafuse ninth, and Jodrey tenth, Lebanon taking the team honors with Gould second. The down- hill was won by Lebanon ace Roger Dion with Lamson second, Ordway ninth. Smith twelfth, and Saunders thirteenth, to give Gould top honors in this event. The slalom left Gould still in second place, Ordway placing ninth, Myhrman nine- teenth, and Lamson twenty-fifth. First honors in the jump went to Dion with Lamson third, Smith sixth, and Rafuse twenty-second. Roger Dion won the coveted skimiester award, with Lamson second. The last official meet of the year was the Eastern Interscholastic Ski Champion- ship held at Lyndonville, Vermont. After a good season the bottom fell out from under the Gould team which placed fifth out of seven. The slalom and downhill held at Burke Mountain hurt the Gould score immensely, as the team placed last in both events. Gould’s best men in sla- lom were Lamson, eleventh, and Myhr- man, eighteenth, and in downhill were Lamson, sixth, and Jodrey, nineteenth. The Nordic events on Saturday showed improvement, Gould taking two thirds, but it came too late. A1 Lamson became Eastern Cross Country Champ, beating the second man, Donovan of E. L. by only three seconds, Rafuse and Jodrey placing ninth and fourteenth. The jump- ing showed A1 Lamson in fourth place, Smith in sixth, Rafuse in seventeenth, and Fox in nineteenth. Roger Dion again took the top honors in this event. Considered as a whole, the team record this year was quite good in spite of the poor ending. Coach Kailey certainly de- serves a great deal of credit for bringing the team through so well with so little practice as does Captain Lamson who was a constant point-getter throughout the season.

The Huskies took their first two opponents in two dual meets by a wide margin. Then, however, the Gould men, although making a good showing, took second place in a triangu- lar meet with two Class L schools. The next contest, a dual meet, was a decisive victory for Gould. They then went on to capture the Oxford County Meet and the State Meet. The coaches, Joe Rod- erick and Mr. Scott, deserve much credit for the many helpful tips and time given each individual member of the team dur- ing the season. On April 30, the first dual meet was held against Stephens High of Rumford. The Huskies were paced by Captain Dick Trimback and Howard Brush to a final score of 67Vz - 49%. Trimback grabbed firsts for Gould in the 100 yard dash, the 220 yard dash, and the broad jump, while teammate Brush marked up a first in the shot put and two seconds — discus and javelin. Trimback's 100 yard dash time was a meet record of 10.4 seconds as was 86 THE ACADEMY HERALD Jim Murphy's 440 yard run, with a time of 54.5 seconds. Wendall Bragg, Wesley Young, Bob Griffin, Harry Reid, A1 Lam- son, Bob Edney, Carl Corkum, and Phil Korhonen were the other team members who added to the total. May 7 found the Huskies traveling to Farmington for a meet at Hippach Field. The weather was wet and the track in poor condition, but the team pulled through with a score of 65 to 52. Cap- tain Trimback again led the pack with firsts in the 100 yard dash, 220 yard dash, and broad jump. May 14 found Gould a host to two strong Class L schools, Edward Little of Auburn and Cony of Augusta. Captain Trimback again swept the 100 and the 220 yard dashes, and the broad jump to capture three firsts for Gould. Rod Bar- low got a first in the javelin, while Jim Murphy copped two seconds for the Huskies, one in the 440 yard run and one in the discus. The outclassed Gould squad did a fine job, but Edward Little proved to be too strong for them taking the meet 66 to Gould’s 45. Cony was third with 27 points. Squad members who added points to Gould’s score were Carl Corkum, Howard Brush, Wendall Bragg, Phil Korhonen, Fred Fanning, Frank Benson, and Dennis Roberston. On May 21, the Huskies participated in their third dual meet of the season, this time with Winslow. Capt. Trimback again took firsts in the 100 yard dash, 220 yard dash and broad jump to lead the scoring for his team. Paul Stevens, who had been gradually improving dur- ing the season, finally made it by taking first in the pole vault, clearing 9 feet 4 inches. Rod Barlow grabbed another first in the javelin, with Carl Corkum taking second place. First honors in the 440 went to Wendall Bragg, who was fol- lowed closely by Jim Murphy and Bob Griffin respectively. Another Husky to bring home a first in this meet was A1 Lamson - 880 yard run. The high jump ended in a three way tie between Bragg, Edney, and Young. Other team mem- bers showing skill were Phil Korhonen, Fred Fanning, Norm Hill, and Dave Big- gins. The Gould men captured all three places in the 440 yard run, the 220 yard dash, and the broad jump. They de- feated Winslow to the tune of 771 3 to 39%. May 28 found a strong Husky team at Hosmer Field in Rumford for the Oxford County Meet. Captain Dick Trimback gathered firsts in the broad jump, 100 yard dash, and the 220 yard dash for the fifth consecutive time. Paul Stevens tied for first in the pole vault. The 440 yard run was won by Wendall Bragg, while Jim Murphy took second place. Others to grab seconds for their team were Bob Edney - broad jump, Howard Brush - discus, Wesley Young - high jump, and A1 Lamson - 880 yard run. Gould was on its way to the State Meet with a 55 point victory stowed under its belt. Frye- burg Academy took second place with 45 points, while Stephens of Rumford and Mexico followed with 30' 2 and 1 IV2 respectively. On June 5 the Huskies departed bright and early for the State Meet at Colby College in Waterville, Maine. It was drizzling as the cars pulled away from the Gould campus: before the day was over it really rained in earnest. Captain Trim- back again led the scoring with 13 points by gaining a first in the broad jump and two seconds in the 100 and 220 yard dashes. Wendall Bragg took first place in the 440 yard run, third in the broad jump and fifth in the high hurdles for a total of 9 points. Jim Murphy, who was right behind Bragg in the 440, brought home second place in this event, scoring 4 points for Gould. Rod Barlow, Norm Hill, and Howard Brush received two points each for placing fourth in the jave- lin, fourth in the 100 yard dash, and fifth in the shot put and 100 yard dash re- spectively. Wesley Young was in a four- way tie for third in the high jump, and A1 Lamson was in a three-way tie for fourth in the pole vault. Once again Gould came out on top by winning the THE ACADEMY HERALD 87 State Meet with a score of 341 2 points. Winslow was second with 261 2. The team elected for its 1956 captains, Norm Hill and Rod Barlow, who both showed fine ability and sportsmanship in '55.

Athletic Council The Gould Academy Athletic Associa- tion is now ending its ninth successful year of supervising the schools sports pro- gram under the chairmanship of Elwood F. Ireland, Headmaster. Some of the specific duties which the council meets are: the estimating and ap- proving of budgets, the approving of all officials for home games, and the formu- lating, reviewing and approving of all athletic schedules, plus the meeting of any unexpected problems that may arise con- cerning sports. The Council approves the awarding of letters when a boy has met the many re- quirements of a particular sport. A blue sweater with a woven “G” is given for outstanding service in athletics. The athlete must have earned either six suc- cessive letters, or a total of seven in all. The Council is composed of five per- manent members and five elected members. The five permanent members are: Mr. Elwood Ireland, Chairman: Mr. Ordell Anderson, Faculty Director of Athletics: Mr. Richmond Roderick, Boys’ Physical Education Director; Mr. Wilbur Myers, Bursar: Miss Emily Tickell, Girls’ Physi- cal Education Director. This year’s elected members and their positions are as follows: Mr. Wendall Brewster, Varsity Coach; Mr. Leslie Davis, Trustee representative; Mr. Charles Chapin, Alumni representative; David Willard, Student Council representative; and Ann Hastings, Girls' Athletic Asso- ciation representative.

Girls’ Physical Education Under the capable direction of our new instructor, Miss Emily Tickell, our year got off to a fine start. Our varied pro- gram in gym includes many things which were difficult for us at first, but which be- came easier as time went on. We have learned the fundamentals of ballet, which are a great help in our modern dancing; square dancing has also been enjoyed by many, and during the fall we received instruction in social danc- ing — the freshman and sophomore boys coming up from their regular classes in the Farnsworth Hall to join the girls, and thus getting the opportunity to improve their dancing. Another part of the new program is practice in marching, which al- though we’re still far from professional, has been a lot of fun. The objectives of marching and mod- ern dancing are to help an individual to coordinate her body and think more quickly, to teach us poise, to give us fun and enjoyment, and most important of all, to give us the ability to cooperate, co- operation being an absolute necessity in the creation of march and modern dance routines. As far as sports are concerned, we be- gan with hockey in the fall, but because of a late start, the Blue and Gold game, usually the climax of the hockey season, will be played in the spring. Volleyball was most successful this year, and basketball only slightly less so. Among the girls who were interested in bowling, the five top bowlers were Margy Rolfe, Alice Rolfe, Jeannine Rolfe, Ann Hastings, and Sandra Olson. 92 THE ACADEMY HERALD Although skiing got off to a late start because of the lack of snow, the girls re- ceived fine instruction under the capable direction of Mr. Myers and Mr. Rich- ardson. Badminton, beginning after the close of the basketball season, is one of the most popular sports among the girls. Many of the girls played softball in the spring, while others seemed more enthusi- astic about tennis and archery, taught by Mrs. Richardson and Miss Colby respec- tively. Miss Colby also was our leader for hiking and took the girls on many long walks in and around Bethel. Our interest in riding was shown by quite a number of our athletes, so it was arranged to have after-school classes for those interested. An exhibition was given early in March, and as it was competitive in the fields of tumbling, marching, and modern dance, it really gave the girls a chance to prove just how well they could work to- gether. Several girls also gave demonstra- tions of their ability on the trampoline. We all wish to express our sincere thanks to Miss Tickell and the many others who have devoted so much of their time and energy to our gym program and have made it so enjoyable for each and every one of us.

THE ACADEMY HERALD 93 Boys’ Physical Education One of the most varied and extensive programs carried on here at Gould is the boys’ physical education program. With- in the space of forty-five minutes each day. every boy participates in a variety of ex- ercises and competitive sports, supervised by “Joe” Roderick. Routine which can generate into bore- dom and disinterest is broken by dealing with the different seasonal sports and activities. In this way everyone finds something which he likes. In the fall and spring touch football, soccer, and softball are played out of doors. When poor weather arrives we move indoors to the cage. Here the boys enjoy the two hand and paddle ball courts and the bad- minton and volleyball court. Gould is fortunate to have a trampoline, which is nearly always in use. When the basket- ball court is set up on the cage floor, the rules and fundamentals of basketball are taught. While the floor is down, “Joe” teaches tumbling on the mats and gymnastics on the apparatus. Each boy is given an op- portunity to acquire muscular control on the horse, parallel bars and horizontal bar. This equipment is used primarily by juniors and seniors who have developed the muscles to support themselves on the apparatus. The upper classmen also have an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of self defense in boxing and wrestling. Besides this varied routine, “Joe” enters the element of chance into every class period. Each boy has a numbered shell which is placed inside a bottle. If his number is drawn, he can spend the period doing anything he wishes. If a blank is drawn, everyone has his choice, and if a black shell is drawn, everyone must do twice the required calisthenics at the be- ginning of the period. In the fall each boy is given a strength test which tests the strength in his arms, legs, back, and grip. Lung capacity, height and weight are also checked. This whole procedure is repeated in the spring to record his development over the course of the year. Special corrective exercises are given to those who have minor physi- cal defects. A special corrective room is used for this purpose. This fall “Joe” introduced a course in rifiery. Instruction was given on proper handling of firearms, and each boy ac- quired a practical knowledge of the weapons by actually handling them. A test was given at the end of the course, those boys who passed being permitted one day’s absence from school to go hunt- ing, if accompanied by a parent. Where else could you get so much in one class? No where but in gym. thanks to “Joe” Roderick! David Knight. ’56 94 THE ACADEMY HERALD Alumni Even though some of you have heard from some of last year's graduates, there must be many who are wondering whether they are going to college, working, mar- ried, or in the service. Let us begin with those who are far- thest away and work toward home. In the Southwest corner of the United States we find Carter Taylor busily studying at the University of New Mex- ico. Then we step further north and find Ruth Mordecai enrolled at the University of Colorado. Judy McIntyre is at Hiram in Ohio, while Fred Fanning is at Illinois College both just a skip and a jump apart. In New York Larry Spinney is attend- ing Paul Smith College, and Mary Jane Goodloe is at Barnard. William Daley is studying at Brown and seems to be doing quite well. Coming up to Massachusetts we find many attending colleges. Nancy Harmon is attending Wellesley College, Judithe Ward is enrolled at Endicott Junior Col- lege, and Betty Carter is at Katherine Gibbs, while Sylvia Ring is studying at Burdette College. Mary Guild is at the School of Practical Nursing in Boston, where we also find Suzanne Stowell in training at Massachusetts General Hos- pital. Lee Carroll is enrolled at North- eastern University, while David Biggins is studying at Nichols Junior College. As we travel farther north in New Eng- land, in the state of Vermont, we find Robert Edney at the University of Ver- mont, Cynthia Hall at Middlebury Col- lege, and Elinor Webster and Carolyn Weymouth at Vermont Junior College. Close by, in the state of New Hamp- shire, is the University of New Hampshire. Among its new students are Curt Mead, Phil Rowe, David Lord, Lorelle Jorden, and Linda Campbell. Jane Smith is also in New Hampshire studying at the Mary Hitchcock Hospital at Hanover. Last, but not least, we have arrived in Maine where we find many loyal gradu- ates who just can't desert this wonderful state. Dale Stevens, Edward Carter, James York, Mary Jane Chapman, Wendell Bragg, Alice Lane, and Ann Duce are en- rolled at the University of Maine, while Dianne Watson, and Carol Ludwig are in Portland attending Westbrook Junior College. Pat Allen and Beverly Noyes you would find in Lewiston; Pat is at Bates College while Beverly is at the C. M. G. Hospital. In the neighboring town of Auburn you could find Mary Bennett en- rolled at the Auburn School of Com- merce. Among those who have stepped so quickly into the world to make a living is Barbara Hulbert, who is holding a re- sponsible job in Gould's office. Others in Bethel include Franklin Harrington, who is working for the Bethel Feed and Grain Company; William Coolidge is at the Riverside Farms, working for Harold Bennett, the owner; Howard Rolfe is also at work in the town of Bethel. Edward McDonald, Kenneth Bumpus and William Lord can be found in the woods, working diligently. In neighboring towns we also find many alumni. Dorothy Foster is work- ing for the United Stores in Rumford. In Hanover, Hilda Rafuse is employed at Howe’s Store: George Stowell is working at Stowell’s Mill in Bryant Pond. Norman Davis is working for the town of Newry. Portland, Maine, has two of our gradu- ates; Shirley Mason and Ruth Hall. Shirley is at the Central Maine Power Company, while Ruth is working as a secretary. In Turner, not so far away, Malvern Wilson can be found practicing farming. At the present time, David Stevens, El- eanor Sumner, Lorita York, Alma Mer- THE ACADEMY HERALD 95 rill. Richard Trimback, Athur Head, Rose Beverage and David Vincent are living at home. Of course we musn't forget those who have found “their man’’ and seem to be quite happy, among them Mary Jane Cole, Pat Gunther, who is in Oklahoma, and June Merrill and Iva Rugg, living in Nor- way and Bethel respectively. The following are now in different branches of the service: Vern and Carl Corkum are in the Navy, Vern in Vir- ginia, Carl in Mississippi: Edward Burn- ham is in the United States Marines, sta- tioned in North Carolina, while Richard Gilman is in Geneva, New York, serving in the Air Force. We would like to wish these graduates success in any field they may be in, and hope we may see and talk to them about their many experiences of this past year.
