JUNIOR CLASS Since a class article for the Herald traditionally takes form as an accounting of the accomplishments of the class, and also the accomplishments of various members of that class, the Junior Class of 1967-68 is going to bend tradition somewhat. Whether out of necessity or otherwise, the standard list of memor- able deeds performed throughout the school year will be omitted from this article. This year’s Junior Class deserves neither more nor less recognition than any other class on the basis of actions. What then makes this Junior Class any different from any other class, Junior or otherwise, in Gould’s long history? Logically, if there are to be any differences which are discernable, they must lie within the people who make up the class. This is where the significance of the Junior Class of 1967-68 is to be found. If, as many say, a primary purpose of contemporary education is to have one person see how another person looks at the world, this year’s Junior Class must truly have gained much from the ex- 48 JUNIOR CLASS II Row I: Pat Dunham, Janis Kennagh, Gwen Reiman, Linda Carver, Diana Walker, Penny Twitchell, Jo-Anne Bickford, Nancy Brown, Mary Jane Geron- da.

Of course, any class will contain individ- uals of diverse backgrounds with diverse views on any number of subjects. How- ever, this class cannot help but be more than average in this respect. On every subject from personal appearance to Vietnam, the individuals of the class have made their views known to each other. So, even if one disagrees with another’s opinions, he cannot but be enlightened by the association (and this was the case with the members of the Junior Class this year.) This is not to say that the individuals of this year’s Junior Class can be, or should be, catalogued by type; categorically placed into one group or another. Nevertheless, diversification amongst the members of the Junior Class is evident in many areas. Thus, the Junior Class of 1967-68 is not to be cited for merit of accomplishment, but instead, its recognition should come from the individuality and diversity of its members and the opinions held by each. 49 Pete Kailey ’69 SOPHOMORE CLASS I Row 1: Dotrie Swan, Ellen Domkowski, Tyrene Sweetser, Betty Gaugler, Bonnie Mills, Amy Kennett, Roberta Sweetser, Barbie Bane, Becky Brown.

A. this fall we left vacation with regrets, but were glad to have one more year together. Our class officers took on their strenuous duties. Flossie Kimball is President, Wayne Davis, Vice-President, Debbie Bolen, Secretary, Sally Rice, Treasurer and Topper Fiske is SAC representative. Craig Walker and Doug Bailey on the JV team and Wayne Davis, Andy Davis, Bill Patrick, Terry Swan, Mike Inman, Tommy Reming- ton, Mark Baker (Manager) and Doug Farrar on the varsity got busy right off, involved in a discouraging but building football season. Were all proud of Andy’s being one of the star players. The girls' hockey teams began working too, with Susie Pierce, Chris Glines, and Becky Thompson on the varsity and Ellen Dombkowski, Becky Brown and Sue Hatch on the JV team. Sophomore partici- pators on the Archery team were Flossie Kimball, Judy Angevine, Brenda Tibbetts and Dottie Swan, who scored a victory against Kents Hill on Parents Day. Sandy Bement showed good tennis form on the courts, too. Paul Benz, Seth Timberlake, Brian Wentworth, Bob Birch and Frank Packard ran for their lives in a really good season on the Cross Country Team. The Sophomore Class celebrated a victory when we won the class competition in the G. A. A. Halloween party. Flossie Kimball, Ted St. Pierre, Bob Gilpatric, Topper Fiske, Vicki Drake and Ross Phipps captivated the judges with their romantic and touching hippie wed- ding which won first prize in the skit competition. When the cold winds blew, sports moved inside. Wayne Davis really moved on the Varsity Basketball court and Andy Davis, Mark Baker, Henry Deegan, Doug Bailey and Chris Bailey kept the JV team going. Jerry Gibbs, despite his loyalty to the team, kept an honest score for all the JV games. 50 SOPHOMORE CLASS 2 Row 1: Judy Sears, Becky Chandler, Roberta Gilbert, Judy Angevine, Cindy Hastings, Flossie Kimball, Sandi Bement, Vicki Drake, Candy Stone.

Size doesn’t matter in basketball as Ellen Dombkowski showed everyone since she did a bang-up job on the girls' Varsity Basketball team. Judy Sears, Becky Thompson, and Susie Pierce provided a big part of the JV team. Barbie Bane was a great manager for the teams. The boys’ Ski Team was strengthened by Tommie Remington, Ricky Seames, Ross Phipps, and Paul Benz. Tommie wasn’t as slow as his '‘farmer'’ nature suggests and came in in the top five in every jumping event. Becky Chandler and Chris Glines added their forces to the girls’ Ski Team and had a lot of fun and gained valuable experience. What WAS it you said about that hairpin turn, Bee? We can’t forget the bowling team on which Becky Brown repre- sented our class. When Winter Carnival time arrived, Flossie Kimball led the small but hearty gang of workers who constructed a big sombrero with huge feet sticking out from it. We were proud of our creation, but had to be content with third place for it. Susie Pierce took time out from doing a fabulous job of decorating the gym for Carnival Ball to run or rather slide the obstacle course with Craig Walker. They repeated history by taking first place together this year as they had taken first and second with different partners last year. Despite this victory and our second place in the Scavenger Hunt and not forgetting Twiggy's drafty run” in the snowshoe race, we took only third place in the overall Carnival competition. To show that our class has some cultural activities too, Andy Davis with his marvelous clarinet-playing ability qualified for All-State Mu- sic Festival this spring. We also have great actresses in Stephanie Stokes, Vicki Waters, and Sandy Bement, who did great jobs in Thur- ber Carnival and are working on other Munger productions. The Sophomore Class believes in upholding tradition. This ex- plains why the class basketball team gallantly lost to the seniors so that the seniors could be the champs as tradition has it! As we separate this summer and the townies leave G. A. for the last time, we’ll all remember the fun and spirit of our two years together.

FRESHMAN CLASS As school resumed this year, the 85 magnificent members of the Freshman Class looked each other straight in the eye and did the impossible. They boldly elected their class offi- cers: Dan Vogt, president; Aimee DesRoches, Vice-Presi- dent; Debbie Dana, Secretary-Treasurer; Jody Packard, S.A.C. Representative. Good Show! On September 8, the traditional welcome mixer was held. It was a gay and boisterous occasion for all involved. The Freshmen quickly figured out that everyone met an average of 8.795 people. For the last football game of the season, wc, the mighty Freshmen, built the biggest bonfire ever seen by the eyes of Bethel. It was made possible by the hard work of Mr. Myers, several industrious boys, and one irreplacable V-P. Three members of our class got letters for football this year: Bozo Merrill, Jim Thurston, and Dan Vogt. Perhaps if more Frosh were on the Varsity squad we would have had a better season. You’ll notice that the J.V. team, made up mostly of Freshmen, had a more gratifying season than did the Varsity, who monopolized the upper-classmen. The Freshman Class also shone in Cross-Country; several members received letters or certificates. In Basketball, we did well again, Dan Vogt and Dave Nervous” Jervis receiv- ing letters. When winter rolled around we really socked it to ’em. Skiing was our forte. Johnnie Lowell and Bart Bailey made the Boys’ team and received letters; Debbie Bickford and Aimee DesRoches made the Girls’ Ski Team. But enough for sports. Let’s get back to the parties of the year. At the Halloween Party, due to FRESHMAN TRADI- TION we came in fourth (That sounds better than last), but we did try harder. The first semi-formal in many of our lives was the Christ- mas Ball. It was an experience not to be forgotten. Everyone was in high spirits, band included. The Winter Carnival was our greatest success! We won it, actually; it is just that some people don’t know how to add too well! Our sculpture deserved first place, but we had to let the Seniors win something, so we took a close seebnd. We won the basketball competition, beating the conceited Seniors. We also won the snowshoe race. Not a bad show- ing; next time around we’ll really slaughter them! The Carnival Ball was held from 8 to 12 P.M. It was a lot of fun and we think all who attended had a great time, especially us (The writers of this classic)! This has been a mixed-up and rather trying year, but we have met many good people that we doubt we’ll ever forget (No matter how hard we try!), and we look forward to coming back.

Yes, it is safe, the bushes bell” just pierced the air and we can find our way in. Oh, look, there are Sally Yeo, Stephanie Stokes and Pat Devlin watching T.V. Of course, they are watching the Saturday night movie as usual. Listen to that laughter! Can you hear the screams now? The song Brown Eyed Girl” is beckoning to us so perhaps we had better make our first stop to the Buttroom. If you can find your way in through the clouds of smoke, you will see Sara Piazza in her own corner, making her own faces beneath her beloved green hat. Such a scream! Did you all have a nice time tonight?” No one answers. There are Kerry Stevens, Carolyn (Stan) Stanley and Cory Carswell plotting again. Is that Kerry behind the flute? It must be! Can't you hear the sour notes? Maria Stevens and Gail Anderson are talking about their own interest and humming Pomp and Cir- cumstance.” Graduation must be very near. Laurie Page is play- ing solitaire, trying to sing with the music and laugh with Sue (Sam) Wyke all at the same time. Martha Wentworth is half listening to Naomi Ballenger in between making her witty comments and thoughts of Bruce. And there in that corner lingers the memory of Jenny Painter. But since the smoke is getting rather thick and We Gotta Get Out Of This Place” is getting louder with everyone singing, let’s go up to 2nd floor to see what’s up. Oh, no, now we come to the noisy hall. As we pass by Lynn Merrill’s room we find Bonnie Forbes, Vicki Waters and of course Lynn figuring out if they should stay up all night and talk or just stay up. Oh, my, what's that I hear? It’s the laughter of Judy Sears coming from Sue Hatch and her room. Of course, Becky Chandler is also in the room. As we saunter along — Jimi Hendrix fills the air from Sandy Bement’s room. Yes, it is 54 Sandy behind all the mess. And here come Gwen Reiman and Vicci Drake from the bathroom. What’s cookin’? In Judy Bancroft’s room we hear her and Liz Mc- Lellan laughing and talking of that great adventure.” But the quietness comes to an abrupt close when Nancy Reid yells something to Mary Jane Geronda as Nancy chases M.J. down the hall . . . Sometimes it is the other way around. Now, let’s go up to the quiet hall! Into 3rd alley we go— Is that Debbie Dana in my room making herself at home? Of course, she is listening to To Sir With Love” and thinking of the sad graduation to come. DeeDee Bunker gets interrupted by Nancy Reid and M.J. as they storm through again. That was a quick trip up to 3rd. And Mary McGee and Debbie Mitchell are cursing that bushes bell” and exercising at the same time. On the main floor we see Candy Stone and Aimee DesRoches in Aimee and Deb- bie’s room wondering whose turn it is to have off in the morning. Here come Sally Boynton and Babs Lewis singing Boogaloo Down Broadway” and waiting for sum- mer to hurry up. Sh, Sue Pollack is asleep. Yes, do shut the door. Here that folk music. It must be coming from Patsy Homer and Lynda Frewin’s room. I hate to say this but your tour is over. Lights were SUPPOSED to be out five minutes ago and we wouldn’t want to be caught in the silence. Also, I have to see if my room is still occupied by my little sis. Thank you and I hope you enjoyed your tour.

BOYS’ DORMS 56 Well, it's time again for the annual tour of the boys’ dorm and I’m sure everyone’s dying to see it, so let’s get a challeng- ing game of Risk going on in the library between Mr. Hunger, Bob Birch, and Mark Harding while Bill (Twiggy) Patrick willingly gives advice. Moving to the Tunnel’’ on the first floor, we find Jim Ogg and his roommate Rusty Phipps taping records on Ogg’s tape recorder. In the next room we walk into the middle of a Gazebo Fan Club meeting with Dan (Leg) Desjardins, Gary Cook, and Jeff Towle. Since dummies” are not welcome here, we move next door where you observe Bill Peters at the mercy of Jim (Gong) Copeland. Good luck, Jon! In the last room of the Tunnel, Dick Collier is busily studying while his roommate, A1 Mers- felder, calculates the various escape routes out of Bethel to the coast. Getting back on the main drag, we find Ray Rich- ards listening to records while his neighbor, Ronald (Mac- Donald) Collins, the proctor, is out in the hall making sure nobody breaks the speed limit. Now we venture into the T. V. room where Bob (Mister) Knapp, Mark Baker, and Edgar (Thumper) Bailey are attentively watching George of the Jungle.” In the next room down the hall, Mark Riley, Mike Curtis, Scott Cummings, Hyo Fire, and Doug Timm are listening to the Ultimate Spinach” and trying to think of something to do around Gould Academy, which is fun if you like lost causes. Dick (Keck) Powell, as usual, isn’t around, neither is Robby Schmol. As we move up the stairs, we are almost run down by Paul (Wierd) Pinette, who is being pursued by Gary Caruso, who is being pursued by Major Campbell, who has a demerit slip in his hand. Next we find Mr. Giguere secretly listening to Micucci's confiscated record player.

SAC SAC, in reflecting the many changes in the school, has had an innovational and rather controversial year. Most of the innova- tions and controversy have centered around two of SAC’s purposes, to act as a sounding board of student opinion and to promote proper faculty-student relationships, both of which result in the problem of maintaining communication within the school. Our first confrontation with the communication problem came with student opposition to two new rules that dormitory students must attend all movies and could not attend week-night basketball games. Because SAC felt that the reasoning behind these regula- tions was either unclear or unknown, Headmaster Scheibler was invited to a meeting to discuss these grievances. The results were highly successful: the basketball ruling was repealed, and although the movie rule stood, the reason behind it was elucidated. The next confrontation with the communication problem oc- curred when SAC unanimously made a resolution asking for rep- resentation on the faculty advisory council. The purpose of this resolution, which was mimeographed and given to all students and faculty, was that SAC felt the faculty council would be an ideal place to establish faculty-student dialogue. As a result of this resolution Acting Headmaster Bigelow told us of his decision not to allow students to attend advisory council meetings regularly because of the peculiar nature of the council, and, by reading a letter from the Senior Class President, pointed out that SAC was not functioning effectively as a sounding board of student opinion. The result of this meeting was that SAC improvised in several ways to attempt to both improve SAC-student communication and to substitute for regular student attendance at faculty advisory council meetings. To improve communication between SAC and students, SAC did three things. SAC meetings, which had tradi- tionally been held in the cottage, were moved to the main building in an attempt to draw more visitors to the meetings which have always been open. This device was mildly successful; there was an average of two or three visitors per meeting for the rest of the year — a 200-300% improvement. Another innovation was to sponsor regular Thursday afternoon assemblies with as much stu- dent direction and participation as possible. These gradually dis- appeared, from a lack of interest from both SAC, as suppliers of programs, and audience. The most successful innovation was a Ned Robertson-Ed Bailey creation, a weekly newspaper to carry a summary of SAC events and articles from students and faculty. This was highly successful in as much as it consistently drew in- terest from a large portion of the school and eliminated any excuse for not knowing SAC’s activities. The substitution which was made for regular attendance at fac- 62 ulty advisory council meetings was a series of forums held Thurs- day afternoons to discuss different topics, faculty-student relation- ships for instance. Faculty appointed by the administration and other interested faculty and students attended these forums. This innovation was a limited success; it was worthwhile in as much as several extremely interesting discussions were held, but interest was limited to a very small number of faculty and students, perhaps due to the lateness in the school year when the forums began. Above all the forums created a time and place where topics of con- cern and interest could be discussed by faculty and students to- gether. A good example of SAC’s use as a tool for communication came with our attempt to abolish final exams for any senior with an average above 86% in any subject. This idea was offered in a SAC meeting and then presented by four SAC members in a faculty- advisory council meeting. The result was a partial success; honor students were exempted, but because this applied to a small pro- portion of students, most seniors were annoyed with SAC because they felt such limited success was meaningless. Probably the most lasting effect of a year obsessed with estab- lishing communication will be the preliminary work done by a SAC-sponsored committee which did preliminary work for estab- lishing next year’s student government. The government, as planned and presented to Headmaster-elect Dolven, will be a regu- lar council with an activity committee. An important job of the v:ouncil will be to organize town meetings, where it is hoped a meaningful dialogue can be maintained by all members of the school community. Aside from innovating, SAC has been busy with its traditional duties. With the perennial problem of organizing a diversity of weekend activities SAC has been neither more nor less successful than in previous years. There have been square dances, open houses in the gyms, a Yankee humorist, and a comparatively large number of dances with boom-boom bands. The assembly committee spon- sored fewer assemblies than usual. The movie committee, in con- junction with Headmaster Scheibler, chose a variety of movies, from Alexander Nevsky, a 1920 Russian film to Zorba the Greek. SAC members also participated in such activities as registration for Parents' Day and the colloquium, collecting money for clothing for destitute Bethel children, and choosing the cheerleaders. SAC also helped organize unforgettable officer training sessions and made a controversial choice for the SAC good citizenship award. SAC has had a busy and exciting year.

THE BLUE AND GOLD September, 1967 found the Blue and Gold with only four or five returning staff members. Mr. Thompson had appointed Ellen Ken- nett the Student Activity Council representative the preceding May, but except for the new advisor, Mr. Palmer, she was the only official sign that there ever was a paper. After some investigation, it was found that there were only two people from last years staff who could and would be editors. David Hutchins and Ellen Ken- nett became the co-editors. The triumverate, Mr. Palmer, Dave and Ellen, appointed the following editorial staff: Feature Editor Bob Knapp Arts and Photo Editor Jim Mann Boys’ Sports Editor Mark Baker Girls' Sports Editor Susan Hutchins Exchange Editor RuchTebbets Business Manager Pat Saunders Assistant Business Managers Nancy Young, Jo-Anne Bickford Ellen started the year off right by getting an extra one hundred dollars from SAC. Staff meetings were filled with eager and in- terested groups of prospective writers. They listened to the high hopes and confident expectations of two editors who were going to change” the Blue and Gold from a mediocre little newspaper to a hot sheet. The first issue taught the staff many things. The fact that run- ning a newspaper is no easy task is one of them. The first issue featured several action shots by Mr. Munger with the caption Photo by Munger. This didn’t cause as much stir, however, as David Hutchins’ editorial, The Institution.” The Thanksgiving (?) issue came out on January 30, 1968. Munger again was featured; this time with a page of pictures of Thurber Carnival and Theater Arts and an enigmatic Impressions of the Theater Arts.” The great Carnival issue was distinguished by six whole pages” and the addition of three new sports writers, Ed Beak” Deegan, Gary Swan, and Mark Vail. Their basketball articles were the delight of the sports page. The staff is planning two more issues for this year. All in all, the Blue and Gold did see several changes this year. Ellen and Dave introduced the Outstanding Athletes feature and changed the mid-section from Senior Spotlight wasteland to an interesting and often newsy group of features.

Row 3: Sue Pollack, MUSIC Despite the many obstacles in his way (such as a small chorus and a miniature band) Mr. Owen succeeded in bringing off an- other meaningful year of entertainment and achievement for the music department. At the outset of the school year a small but competent Marching (?) Band braved the elements in order to provide football en- thusiasts with entertainment at half-time. Although this unit may not have seemed too vital on the surface it added a certain amount of colour to an otherwise drab football season. At Christmastime the chorus presented a special assembly in which they performed their renditions of a variety of Christmas carols and religious numbers. The audience although of a captive nature, received the program enthusiastically. Many high schools are not fortunate enough to have any of their students participate in the All State Music Festival. Gould, however, was well represented, as usual. Brothers Tom Davis and Andy Davis (All State Band) joined with All State Chorus mem- bers Kathy Powers, Peter Martin, Jim Mann, Gretchen Dock. Dorothy Lovejoy, and Fred Reinhart to make the sojourn to Calais. Here they joined the best musicians from around the state for three days of intensive practice which culminated in two well-done per- formances the following Saturday. This year’s Chapman Club, consisting of a group of some of the school’s finest in the musical field, again proved itself to be an interesting addition to the school’s collection of organizations. It not only took part in sponsoring a weekend, but more important it provided a gathering point for the musically inclined portion of the student body. The last part of the year was spent in a combined effort of the chorus and band to present an enjoyable program intended to bring forth the fruit of their musical endeavors. This program was pre- sented in an assembly on the last day of classes. The talented mem- bers of the chorus gave voice to a series of songs ranging from sad ballads to a few up tempo pieces. The band also displayed its versatility by performing not only some light material but also difficult arrangements by Frank Erikson. The restlessness of the crowd (last day of school) subsided somewhat as their savage souls were soothed.” Although the Gould Band was not able to perform as a march- ing unit on Memorial Day due to a lack of active members, a few took time out of their day off to march in a village band that was hastily pieced together. It is fairly dimly known that the administration looks upon the music department as a frivolous and not entirely necessary segment of the school. If it were not for a great deal of work and tolerance on the part of Mr. Owen the music department would not have amounted to much of anything this year. He has done a great deal to further many students’ interest in music and has done so in the midst of rather chaotic conditions. He deserves a great deal of credit.

DRAMATICS This year a dramatics club, which worked completely independent of the theatre arts class, was formed at Gould. While theatre arts mainly put on plays for the faculty and their own class, with one play, Doctor’s Duty,” put on at an all-school assembly, the drama club staged two plays for the general public. The first of these two was A Thurber Carnival” by James Thurber. It was well suited to the needs of the drama club because it gave an opportunity to use a large cast and crew. It was presented December 15 to a welcoming audience who enjoyed the humor of the short sketches. In May the drama club put on No Exit” by Jean-Paul Sartre. Although the audiences were small, those who went were im- pressed by its force. The entire audience became a part of the play, each person living all the characters’ parts. Last, the warmest thanks to our director, Mr. John R. Munger, for the patience and time he spent with us. When the cast and crew were discouraged or worried, he always found the right words to make us laugh and realize it was worth the hard work and the time. Pat Saunders ’68 LE CLUB DE FRANCAIS Although the French Club’s membership list is not endless and it doesn’t have a bulging treasury, it does participate in school activities. It has sponsored a variety of events this year, ranging from car washes to Christmas caroling. Early in the year, the French Club officers, Diddy Merrill (president), Vick Brown (vice-president), Rhodi Stowell (secretary), Scott Daigle (treasurer), and Cindy Chapin (S.A.C. Representative), assembled to plan means of raising money. The result was a car wash. It took place on a cool Saturday afternoon behind the auditorium. Unfortunately, the members of the club were the only ones to donate cars for the cause. The event provided fun, nonetheless, for the participants discovered that hoses are amusing weapons. (John Wentworth may argue that point!) One windy evening before Christmas, several bundled carolers sang their way from house to house in the French Club’s annual Christmas caroling session. Although most singers were illiterate when it came to singing in French, Mr. Renwick and Mr. Dubuc helped out with volume and fluency. In March, the French Club joined forces with the Latin Club to sponsor a dance. 'The Velvet Seed” was successful in drawing people to the floor to work off their hibernal weight. Despite the loss of Mr. Dubuc, the dance was a success and proved that Frenchmen aren’t lazy or uncoor- dinated, and that Latin is not dead but alive and hiding at Gould Academy. Mr. Dubuc and Mr. Renwick deserv'e thanks for their interest and co-operation. The Club's only regret is its failure to initiate Mr. Giguere, who joined us late in the season.

OUTING CLUB Thinking back over the year, I find hard to remem- ber just what exactly did happen — there was so much (!) There were the annual hikes to Fuller’s Hut, a hike up Barker Mountain, one up Katadin and Sunday River. Amazingly, there were also several impromptu hikes and advencures that materialized out of those long, hot weekends we so frequently enjoy. Unfortu- nately, the Outing Club lost a great deal of its en- enthusiasm and drive when Dave Shutz left us so abruptly. However, the club carried on and the climax of the year’s activities was the Winter Carnival, traditionally sponsored by the Outing Club. The club’s wondrous president, along with one or two other jokers, labori- ously built a throne for the queen, Pam Douglass, who decided not to use it. Such is life. Of course, in fierce inter-class competition, the Sen- iors asserted their acquired superiority, beating Jun- iors, Sophomores, Freshmen, and anyone else who saw fit to do battle. The Carnival Ball, with Malcolm Smith playing beneath a paper roof, was a quasi-formal affair which was enjoyed. What else does the Outing Club ever do?

The biggest event, which happened early in September, was the acquisition of a new teacher and advisor; Mr. Charles Newall! Under his expert guidance, we saw Biology classes perk up; field trips were enjoyed in the Spring, as was getting out of Hanscom Hall first period. The club sponsored several activities this year, too. In January we took over the annual “January Blowout” and turned the Girls’ Gym into an aqueous solution of amphibious protozon (a goldfish bowl). Having been successful with our dance, the Biology Club then spon- sored several movies throughout the year, some of them perhaps not of interest to most students. They were movies especially designed to enlighten the stu- dents biologicallyy, plant life and pollenation and other confusing things. The Biology Club can not claim to give out medals to its members or hold a mini-orgy in the Spring, but for those students interested in things biological, sci- entific, or just plain fun, the Biology Club — as long as we have Mr. Newall — can provide everything.

AUDIO-VISUAL A scarcity of experienced A-V crew members this year made it imperative to start a large training program under the supervision of Mr. Williams and the assistance of Alan Remington and Bill Eames. At times it seems as though those freshmen will never learn, but they always manage to get the gist of things. The A-V crew is made up of members of all four classes. Previously all male, one brave female joined the crew this year. The crew is responsible for running movies, dances, assemblies, taping forums, and so forth. In short, they run the school! When an A-V member has proven his capabilities he is awarded a Bell and Howell Qualified Projectionist pin and card. This enables him to continue working with A-V after he graduates from Gould.

CAMERA CLUB In spite of the fact that the Camera Club is one of the smallest clubs on campus, it is one of the most active, being responsible for most of the pictures in the Herald and the Blue and Gold. Our new advisor, Mr. Munger, very capably shouldered the brunt of the work load, assisted by Bill Eames, Ed Bailey and Jim Mann. ''Leg” Desjardins also took plenty of candid photos, and many of the candids were posted during the year as advertisements. Having been renovated last year, the darkroom is more than adequate for a high school. For those who are really serious about photography, the Camera Club provides an opportunity to learn and to gain experience.

FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA FHA For those of you who are unfamiliar with the organization known as FHA, I will attempt to explain it. FHA, Future Homemakers of America, is made up of high school students studying homemaking. The overall goal of the organization is to help improve personal, family, and community living. The FHA motto is Toward New Horizons.” The flower is the red rose, and the FHA colors are red, symbolizing strength, and white, for sincerity. In September the G. A. FHA chapter held a tea to introduce new home economics stu- dents to FHA. Refreshments were served, and FHA’s goals were explained to the girls. Initiation of new members took place in October. The unsuspecting plebes were led through puddles of coagulated chocolate pudding, over mounds of slimy macaroni, and strategically placed soggy marshmallows, coated with ropes of shaving cream and dragged through the shrubbery of our glorious campus. A Playtex rubber glove lined with Heinz catsup provided an extra thrill for the blindfolded scapegoats. After this exhaustive oper- ation, blindfolds were removed and food was produced. The new members were made to fetch and carry for the old members, but managed to sneak in a few bites here and there. Songs were sung and the archery field cleared of its pudding puddles and other goodies, and everyone went home after a ceremonial installation of new members by candlelight. In November the FFLA members attended a District Convention at Wilton Academy. Anita Young, The G. A. chapter president, was elected District E Chairman, and Janis Kennagh, secretary of the Gould chapter, gave up her position as District E Recorder. Bev York, Gould chapter parliamentarian, described her trip to the National Convention in L.A., California, last July. During the Christmas season the FHA girls helped the Bethel Health Council repair clothes to be donated to needy families in the Bethel area. FHA members also canvassed for jewelry, books, clothing, perfume, and other odds and ends, to be donated to the girls at Stephens Training Center. This was a moderate success, thanks to the generosity of students and friends. On the weekend of February 10 we sponsored a Valentine’s Day Dance, held in the gym. The girls scurried about industriously all day Saturday getting decorations in place, while others were busily baking goodies to provide refreshments for hungry dancers. On February 13 FHA gave a Valentine’s Day party for the children in the Head Start project. This gala gathering was held at the home of Mrs. Mary Paine, the local director of the program. Valentine boxes decorated and lined up to make a train were provided by FHA, along with refreshments. For the benefit of the student body, various fudge sales have been held, and we can look forward to more of these as the year progresses. FHA members are busily making plans for a town cleanup project in the spring, and more help for the children in the Head Start program, along with other worthy activities. We hope we shall be able to carry out all of these projects. Irene Haines ’68 75 ATHLETICS ATHLETIC COUNCIL ATHLETIC COUNCIL First Row: Mr. Terwilliger, Mr. Bigelow, Mr. Myers. Second Roto: Mrs. Limerick, Mr. Hurd, Mr. Barth, Mr. Roderick, Gretchen Dock. The Gould Academy Athletic Council, headed by Mr. Terwilliger, and consisting of several administration and faculty members and two students elected by S.A.C., Gretchen Dock and Ned Robertson, met several times this year to discuss various and sundry topics. Our first meeting was spent discussing the awarding of letters and certificates to the cross- country and football teams. A very pleasant job. At the second meeting, we dealt with the presentation of letters to the basketball and ski teams, and an athletic award sweater to go to Larry Fox, a speaker for the Lettermen’s Banquet (We were luckyy enough to get Bob Cousey), and the planning for a possible athletic schedule for next year. This latter subject was discussed at a later date, but due to the transition period of the school, no concrete plans could be made.

I’m referring to the Girls’ Athletic Asso- ciation, of course. This year was a fine year for the thirty-three G. A. A. mem- bers, headed by Gretchen Dock, with Mary Jane Geronda as vice-president, Susie Pierce as secretary, Vicky Brown as trea- surer, and Pipp Wiese as S. A. C. representative. The annual Welcome Tea was held at the beginning of Oc- tober in order to get the new girls acquainted with the old. (Actually, those sneaky G. A. A. girls were just hungry.) The new girls were shown around by their Big Sisters,” and the shyness soon wore off. The skit proved that all G. A. A. girls are poised, (when Dumpski hit Mrs. Scheibler in the head with a volleyball?) ... better luck next year! Three weeks went by, and the girls had something else up their sleeves — the Halloween Party. Much to the surprise of all the upperclassmen, the sophomores clinched first place in the class competition, consisting of relay races, skits, and a scavenger hunt. Throughout the rest of the fall and winter, under the ruthless hand of Nancy Brown, every girl had a turn selling goodies at the football and basketball games. Everyone grumbled about selling until spring rolled around, and it was time for an outing and a banquet. Gee, gang, we’re rich!” May 23rd was an exciting evening for many girls, as they crowded into the girls’ dorm for a banquet followed by awards. We were also thoroughly entertained by our guest speakers and by some budding beauties who were running for Miss G.A.A. (They looked pretty fishy to me!) Thanks, boys, for being such good sports — it’s not very often that we get to see boys in bikini tops and grass skirts. (Oh, Miss South Pacific, you’re such a cutie!) At this time of the year, our busy class representatives, Pam Douglass, Sally Boynton, Kris Glines, and Sue Hutchins, were all chasing after unsuspecting souls for their class dues. And at this time of the year, we all packed up to go to Sebago for the outing. Saturday was freezing, and Sunday was ridiculous, and soon the universal cry became, Guy, come get us!” The 1967-68 season was full of laughs, yet the girls knew how to work together when an emergency arose . .. that’s what made it a good season. At this time we in G. A. A. wish to thank Mrs. Limrick for all her help and encouragement.

CROSS-COUNTRY Our Cross-Country season was, this year, a melange of strange yet enjoyable events. One stepping in from the out- side would find it very hard to understand, but to us it had meaning. We worked hard and enjoyed every minute (well...) of it. We were driven to our meets by Seth Tim- berlake in his four-on-the-floor Corvette, or Mustang, or GTO, or whatever it was. We did well, considering our myriad metaphysical handicaps. We placed first in the West- ern Maine Conference meet, second (by a close, very close. one point) in the Mountain Valley meet, and fourth in the State meet. Pizzas, a gallon of cider, and something else (verrry inter- esting) caused a lot of moaning from Lars Nelson's room. We also never got the radio on the way home — that was one of our little coach-team understandings. Mr. Vogt, the finger tapper, was a good coach, even if he didn't admit to liking good music. I thank him, my mother thanks him, and the team thanks him. Thank you, Mr. Vogt.

TRACK With only four returning lettermen, Gould had the agon- izing task of building a team that could meet competition. The 1968 track season opened on April 29th with Wilton and Hall-Dale at Gould. The Gould team started out with an early lead and kept up a constant accumulation of points to beat Hall-Dale and Wilton 79Vi to 44 to 41 Vi. Doug Rein- hart, the team’s highest scorer and most dependable athlete, won the javelin, discus, and shot, assisted by Dennis Durgin in the same events. The pole vault went to Ed Handy with Tom Remington second, while Bob Tift won the triple jump. Wins by Paul Benz in the 440 and Bart Bailey in the low hurdles helped Gould to come out victorious. In Gould’s second meet, the Huskies succeeded in over- coming Livermore Falls with a score of 70 to 56. Starting out slowly, the Gould team was second best for the first seven events, but scored heavily in the last five to defeat Livermore. Reinhart scored first in the javelin and Bill Peters won the high jump and broad jump. Dave Hutchins’ running per- formance in the mile, Paul Benz’ in the 440, Ned Robertson’s and John Erhard’s in the 880, with Dave Robertson’s in the two mile evened up the season. On May 13th the Gould track team took their first defeat to a strong Winthrop team, in a tri-meet with Winthrop and Lisbon at Winthrop. The high scorer for Gould was Doug Reinhart, taking firsts in the javelin and discus with Bill Peters first in the high jump. Gould’s fourth meet was a dismal day for the members of the Gould track team as they took a smashing defeat by a far stronger Rumford team. The only highlights of the meet were a 165' 6 javelin throw by Doug Reinhart and a de- cisive victory by Dave Robertson for a first place in the two mile. The last meet of the season was the big one for Gould as in the past we have usually won the Mountain Valley Confer- ence title. However, although the squad exerted a 100 per cent effort, Gould placed fifth, behind Farmington, Win- throp, Mexico, and Wilton. The team was of course dis- appointed but realized this was not the last race. Thus, the team completed a moderately successful season that was marked by fine spirit and uncommon willingness to spend long hours on the cinders in preparation for the meets. The squad would also like to praise Craig Davis and Terry Swan for their invaluable assistance, and a special thank you goes to Coach Kersey for all the help he has given us. Con- gratulations to Captain Ned Robertson and the 1968 Gould track team; best wishes to the team of 1969. John Wentworth ’69 BOYS’ SKI TEAM Although it has not been one of our most successful seasons, it certainly has been an interesting one for the ’68 Gould Ski Team. On January 5 and 6 the team held its first meet here at Sunday River. We had a first and a third in the slalom and another third in the jumping, but un- fortunately we were overcome by both Edward Little and Mexico. On the 13th we travelled to Holderness, N. H., in the Gould tank . . . er, bus. Here again we were outclassed by Holderness although we had a first in the jumping and a third in the cross-country. The big day this year was on January 19 and 20 when we met the teams of Kennett and Farmington here at the Skiway. The team won with firsts and seconds in both the slalom and jumping and first, second, and a third in the cross-country. No giant slalom was held. On the 26th and 27th Gould met Bridgton and Fryeburg Academy at Fryeburg. Again we were victorious with a second and a fourth in the slalom, a tie for first in the giant slalom, and first in the jumping and cross-country. Our last regular meet was at North Conway, N. H. with Kennett and Berlin. Much of the slalom and giant slalom was fun in wither deep fog or pouring rain. Nordic conditions the next day were excellent. Even with firsts in the slalom and jumping and seconds in the giant slalom and cross-country, Gould lost to Kennett; however, we beat Berlin. Finally in the State AA meet in Rumford on February 16 and 17 we again struck bad luck. Due.to injuries, falls, and the wrong cross-wax, Gould finished in fourth place. Scott Cummings ’69 BOYS' SKI TEAM Row 1 (left to right) : Scott Cummings, Tom Remmington, Bart Bailey, Scott Daigle, Larry Fox, Peter Kailey, John Wentworth, Peter Martin. Row 2: Paul Benz, Stuart Gaw, Brandon Falkcnham, Alan Remmington, John Lowell, Jim Haskill, Dave Robertson, Rick Seames, Mr. Barth (coach).

After much debate, many telephone calls, and numerous visits to Mr. Myers, Mr. Terwilliger, and Mrs. Limrick, the Gould Girls’ Ski Team be- came organized, officially at least. First came preseason exercises along with groans of agony. With the cries of lameness came remarks such as It only hurts when I walk down stairs,” and No, I'm not lame, I always walk this way.” Finally the snow came and with it skis, boots, and the good ole ski bus. They practiced four nights a week with their coach, Jay Langley. Poor Jay should have made a recording of Lean forward; bend your knees, and don’t be afraid of going fast! ” But now we come to the girls themselves. Kris Glines, one of the up-and-coming skiers, was often heard saying, How come my pants are so kaggy? They fit Heidi last year.” Linda Carver was even more often heard telling of her shrink- ing remedies. Becky Chandler was always prac- ticing on weekends and before meets saying I can’t go. I’m not going; I am awfully nervous.” Liz McLellan was reassuring the team with the words, Of course we’ll lose, so why worry?” Jo-Anne Bickford, manager, ran frantically rounding up girls every night saying, Are you coming tonight to practice?” You don't really need me tonight, do you?” came Pipp Wiese’s reply. The most promising and comepetent racers were Aimee DesRoches and Debbie Bickford. The team not only counted on these two to place for them, but also to leave tracks for the rest of the girls to follow. During the whole season (even though it was unsuccessful) we all had fun and sincerely ap- preciate all who helped out, such as the bus drivers and words of wisdom” givers. May next year’s team profit from our experiences. Here are the results of the meets: with Frye- burg at Freyburg: Slalom: 3, Debbie Bickford; 7, Pipp Wiese; 8, Aimee DesRoches. With Rumford at Gould: 4, Aimee DesRoches; 5, Debbie Bickford; 9, Jo-Anne Bickford; 11, Liz McLellan. Jo-Anne Bickford ’69 VARSITY BASKETBALL Row 1 (left to right): Danny Vogt, Ray Powell, Dave Jervis, Steve Simmons, Gary Caruso. Row 2: Mr. Hurd (coach), Paul Treworgy, Bob Gilbert, Tom Davis, Craig Boyd, Ed Deegan, Jim Perkins (manager). BASKETBALL VARSITY At the start, Coach Hurd’s young varsity team looked like it could make good. Al- though there were only three Seniors on the team, there was plenty of talent among the underclassmen. Junior Craig Boyd was the team’s high scorer, and ball-handling junior Paul Treworgy and rebounding sophomore Wayne Davis shone all season. Seniors Ed Deegan, Bob Gilbert, and Tom Davis all played about equally well. Juniors Steve Simmons and Ray Powell starred at guard positions; the remaining junior, Gary Caruso, was valued by the team for his rebounding assets. On most teams, freshmen see limited action, but this year two talented men, Dan Vogt and Dave Jervis, filled guard positions very well. The season began with an easy 70-25 victory over Dixfield at Gould, but the second with Bridgton was the one that raised eyebrows and everybody’s hopes. We won: 59-58. Unfortunately, a two week vacation without practice followed this victory, slowing the team down considerably. On January 12, Gould lost to Buckfield 110-70. This seemed to set a pattern for Gould, for it lost to Monmouth 82-48, and had trouble winning over Mechanic Falls by five points. Again we lost; this time 76-53 to Leavitt, but narrowed down the odds by losing to Buckfield again with a slimmer margin: 81-52. We were vic- torious over Mechanic Falls again, 64-42, and had great hopes of beating Bridgton a second time. However, safe on its home court, Bridgton controlled the game with a score of J.V. BASKETBALL TEAM Row 1 (left to right) : Craig Davis, Paul Durgin, John Trinward, Steve Blake, Terry Wilson, Bob Schmoll. Row 2: Chris Bailey, Andy Davis, Dave Kcniston, Mr. Berry, Doug Bailey, Mark Baker, Roger Putnam. 109-82. Gould lost its next two games to Leavitt and Champion Monmouth, but finished up the season in a roaring victory over Dixfield: 84-55. After the long Christmas layoff, Gould just couldn’t seem to gather the necessary momentum to make them win over strong teams such as Buckfield, Monmouth, and Leav- itt, but this year’s team played well together and showed a great deal of spirit. Many thanks go to Manager Jim Perkins, Scorer Jerry Gibbs, and especially to Coach Hurd for making this a great basketball year. JUNIOR VARSITY The Junior Varsity season ran fairly consistently with the Varsity’s. It was easy to see what lay ahead for basketball in Bethel when one watched Mr. Berry’s young team, for they showed great promise of becoming a winning team. There was good height with sophomores Doug Bailey and Andy Davis and freshman Dave Kenniston, and the team contained several scoring guards such as Terry Wilson, Steve Blake, Chris Bailey, and Bob Schmoll. Ballhandlers John Trinward, Henry Deegan, and Mark Baker, and hustler Paul Durgin kept the team’s driving spirit on the move. As most of the boys have gotten an early start with the recently initiated grammar school program, they should develop into one of the finest teams this town has seen in years.

BASEBALL As the first practices took place in March, the prospects for a good team looked good, despite ugly rumors of a good Farmington club. When the team was finally narrowed down, and the season started, our, success was a big question mark. We lost to Farmington, but beat Wilton. Some of the season’s more outstanding feats were a 5-4 comeback in the eighth inning in a win over Livermore Falls. They beat us in the second game. In our second game with Wilton, we won 17-4. We played two close games with Berlin, winning both. We felt very pleased with our season, tying for second in our league standings. In the final game of the season, the Gould Varsity beat the Alumni 4-1 in keeping with Gould's long standing traditions.

Tom Davis '68 89 GOLF Left to right: Coach Hurd, John Trinward, Mark Baker, Ray Powell, Pete Martin, Pete Kailey. GOLF The Golf team is the smallest athletic team on campus, but it can’t be beat when it comes to determination. True to form, the varsity team started the season with a loss. After setting out on the trip listening to the radio and talking constantly, it teed off against North Yarmouth. So much for that game. No, the team was defeated 5 to 2, but pushed on to the next game. This time it rivaled Livermore and again was defeated 2 to 3. Another disappointment, but Mark Baker reminded the team that even the crackerjack G.A. football team had won one game, so the Golf team drove to Winthrop and, unfortu- nately for Mark Baker, lost. The score: Winthrop 6, Gould 0. But wait! After a lot more practice and coaching from Mr. Hurd, Gould set off to Lisbon and after a very near loss, John Lowell pulled through for a Gould victory of 3 to 2, bringing some hope to the team for the next game. The next game; Gould won! The Golf team ended its season on a note of victory. We would also like to end the season with a note of thanks to Coach Hurd who buoyed us up after our first losses, and without whose training and help, we never could have come through in the end.

CRIST A.B., B.D. Chaplain Hebron Academy Departing from tradition, Class Day was not observed on the Friday before Graduation as in years past. The skit depicting the Class Will and Prophecy was given at an all-school assembly on Thursday, May 23. In another all-school assembly, on Friday, May 31, Baseball and Track letters, plus various other awards, were given out. Then on the Friday before Graduation the Seniors were able to get an early start for Thompson Lake for the picnic. The lobsters and steaks were delicious, and a good time was had by all in spite of the cloudy weather. Although the weatherman didn’t cooperate throughout the entire weekend, he favored us with a beautiful day on Saturday. Many Alumni returned for the luncheon and later while some played on the Alumni Team, others watched themselves being slaughtered by Coach Bowhay’s Varsity Baseball Team. Sunday morning the Baccalaureate Exercises were held at the West Parish Congrega- tional Church. Mr. E. Ward Steady of Berlin, New Hampshire ably presided at the organ. An extremely moving sermon, entitled Mirror, mirror on the wall . . .”, was delivered by Reverend Robert P. Crist, A.B., B.D., Chaplain of Hebron Academy. Another highlight of the morning service was a solo Alleluja” from Motet Exultate Jubilate,” sung superbly by a member of the Senior Class, Kathleen Powers. The Commencement Program, held Sunday afternoon, inside Bingham Hall because of threatening weather, was as follows: 98 Processional Pomp and Circumstance Elgar Organist — Mr. E.
