This year into office we sent, Dickie La Duke as President. Our dance was o record hop, Thot was called The Turkey Trot. As our class project we sold, Grafton bears, so cute, so bold.

The Freshman Reception was fun, Not much was heord such a dun l Winter Wonderland, our Senior Ball Was certainly enjoyed by us all. We sold banners, candy, and pins, In projects we all took port in.

Oh, how I had been longing for my annual checkup at our city's new hospital? Three days of relaxation. After picking my car up at the garage, and conversing a bit with Bob Ford, the head mechanic, I made my way through the sprawling downtown traffic. The hospital corridors were filled with bustling nurses. It was here that I literally bumped into Sandra Fields, Marilyn Willey and Pat Lebel, all seeming hurried but cheerful. The receptionist was Caro- lynne Corey, and it was her duty to sign me in, as it were, for room 202. She suggested that I wait for my doctor, Janet Walters, in her private waiting room. Because Janet was occupied, her secretary, Leona Mit- chell, suggested I go directly to my room, and sena for Shirley Sulyma to see that I was settled and com- fortable. I was supplied with a radio, plus several new magazines. Pat Roche also came in to say hello and bring a menu for me to check off. She remarked that Nancy Troy had received good training as a practical nurse and that at present she was out in California. When all was quiet, I snapped on the radio and heard Frank Cappezuto spinning the latest re- cordings, obviously proud to introduce a fine one by Pat Kelly. Skip Holland came on to make his usual accurate weather predictions. A colorful magazine cover caught my eye, so I picked it up and decided to spend a little time reading. I discovered that Joc Caldwell was responsible forthe modernistic illustration. There was a quan- tity of interesting material within, including a feature article by Pam Perkins on none other than Mike Nault. He, it appeared, was conducting an extensive study ofa rare type of marine life. Rod Corey and Dick LaDuke both were highly complimented in a story about nationwide sports, and Francis Gosselin was shown receiving a medal for bravery beyond the call of duty during a raging hotel fire. My biggest sur- prise came on the back page where Fran Wenc's smiling face was featured advertising a popular brand of cigarettes. The next day, after enduring several tests, I was allowed to stroll around the building. In one of the sun rooms a huge mural, was displayed along with the name of the creator, Roger Gemme. I found Nick Campanale and Roger Peloquin going over the plans for a new wing which would house one of the most complete laboratories in the nation. Roger was to okay Nick's plans for a unique design in linoleum, Then Carol Cross, lab research director, and lab technicians Abbott Mongeau and Pam Moore entered the scene. They introduced me to the fact that our class has done well in the scientific field. An electronic theory by Terry Arnold had been accepted by the government for future missile projects. Recreation time was then called to a close as nurse Bonnie Donnelly soon informed me, and both of us returned to my room. My room, I say, but little did I know that I had acquired a roommate, and none other than Norma Dannenhauer. I-low pleased I was to think of another full day of boning up on the latest news. I complimented Norma on her hair style and she informed me that Judy Smith was operating a highly successful beauty salon. Norma herself was a private secretary to a congressman and related the fact that she often bumped into Bev Scobie, MorietteTanguC1y, Alaine Cardin, and Janet Wentzell who were employed as office workers in government service. Alaine had kept a record of boys from our class who had gone through some branch of the service and computed the following list: Bill O'Brien, Nick Messinese, Ronald Lukas, Norman Grenier, Paul Blondin, John Quinn, Joe Erenius, Arvid Anderson, and Ray Derosier. Norman Atchue and Bruce Bernier had excellent Air Force records and were now commercial pilots. Ed Tankersely, after graduating from Annapolis, was stationed in some distant port of call. I told Norma that Judy Girouard had put into business a small chain of specialty shops and employed Marilyn White, Joan Mombourquette, and Barbara Benoit as assistants. We remembered that teaching was also a popular field with members of the class of l959 and Marion Mongeon, Naomi Wetherbee, Joan Lund- gren and Brad Pratt all held good positions in public schools in the area. During the last afternoon of my stay, and after the series of examinations were concluded, June Burke stopped in to say hello. She arrived for an appointment with Dr. Walters and was told that we were here Her latest scoop was that Janice Buzzell and she had just returned from a trip to New York City where they intended to move and find positions as stenographers. Looking out the window, I noticed a milk truck which read KnowIton's Dairy in bright red letters. June said that Leeroy owned a fine farm and that Jim Lucier also made deliveries over quite an extensive area. I checked out that evening, said farewell to everyone, and proceeded home to await the results of my checkup. I actually felt as if ten years had been erased from my life. 35 .JLINIIJRM :AH fi Hi' 0 Cob Committee Our busy usheretfes 'ME' 1 iq v X Z XV , . 4 ,ou i o ' 4 Y ,idk Circling the floor Behind the scenes with poor Brad 15555 5.442 1 X! i , xx . 5 . , ago.

His futile attempts to win an argument with his two older sisters, his method of working out his financial diffi- culties, and his rather fumbling attempts to get a date with Virginia, make a hilarious sir- uation out of what to Wilbur are quite serious problems.

With the majority of the faculty also in at- tendance, the program began with a welcoming speech by Rod Corey, Junior Class President. He was thanked by John Wheeler, President of the class of 1958, and the afternoon was formally un- derway. Entertainment was furnished by Pamela Moore, playing a fine version of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata , and the trio of Norma Dan- nenhauer, Joan Lundgren and Pot Kelly singing the lively number Sugartime, After the cutting of the first slice of cake, colored in green and white, the Seniors lined up to file past the buffet table, fol- lowed by the Juniors. The table was laden with de- licious food and punch, all of which disappeared rather quickly. This traditional affair at Grafton High was certainly enjoyed by all.

The biggest event in our Junior year was our Junior Prom entitled Almost Paradise. Dick La- Duke was chosen prom chairman and Pat Kelly was put in charge of decorations. After much hard work and combined efforts, the gym was finally made ready for the evening. A pink ceiling with dangling stars covered with silver glitter created a dreamy atmosphere along with the music of Eddie Sham's Orchestra, The tiny tables were decorated with two dainty nut cups in the shape of canoes, two leis, along with a huge flower pinned to the side of the cloth, To complete the Hawaiian theme, the queen's throne was made of a small mound of grass with tiny rows of steps leading up to a small wicker chair on top. The whole throne was backed by a lovely Hawaiian scene composed of two graceful Hula Dancers, ships, and a gorgeous Bird of Paradise. Here on this setting our Queen Norma Dannenhauer reigned, surrounded by her Court consisting of Joan Lundgren, Bonnie Donnelly, Marilyn White, Patricia Lebel, Judy Smith, and Joan Mombour- quette. An evening of dancing and dining followed at the White Cliffs in Northboro, Massachusetts. A L PFD? M U 'n PPV ., 5 uw ' V I - .f. 1 1 .

Unlike the previous years, it was decided upon by the Senior Class that the Freshman would be initiated instead of having the usual reception. A list of various things the freshmen had to do was written up and carried through with the approval of Mr. Alvino. Among the many things were carrying senior's books to class, opening doors for them, and kissing sen- ior's class rings saying, Hail, Almighty Senior. The girls had to wear blouses, skirts, and sweaters back- wards, their hair in buckwheat curls, and could not wear lipstick. The boys had to wear shirts and sweaters back- wards and roll up pants to their knees. Both boys and girls had to wear signs with their names and those of their big sisters or brothers to whom they were assigned. As the freshmen came into the gym they were ap- plauded by everyone. Richard LaDuke, the Senior Class President, gave a welcoming to them. Unsuspecting Gary Fleming was called upon to wash part of the gym floor with a tooth brush. Kathy O'Connor had to fill a pail of water with thimble, while David Cald- well measured the gym with his feet. ln the meantime, Eddie Pechie measured the gym with the ruler on his hands and knees to see if he could come out with the some measurements as Dave. While Dougie Smith and Beverly Serra were enjoy- ing this very much, they suddenly realized to their sur- prise that they had been called up to perform a duet, singing Mary Had a Little Lamb. Jackie Lebel and Grace Soderberg, who were enjoying the duet, were also surprised when they were called upon to set Ronnie Bar- dier's hair. To end our entertainment our Three Teens sang Devoted to You and Everybody Loves o Lover. A Baby Doll act was presented by l2 senior girls and Shir- ley Sulyma gave a piano solo. The freshmen were then lined up along the stage, where they sang, Dear Old Grafton. They left the gym with their big sisters and brothers.

A tree festooned with lights, bulbs, and tinsel stood at one end. A fireplace stood nearby. At the opposite end of the cafeteria a sleigh stood, beside which the orchestra sat.

Representative of each class, it strives to promote understanding and cooperation between the school author- ities, the faculty, and the student body. ln particular, the Grafton Council at- tends central area meetings in the fall and spring as well as a statewide con- ference of the Mass. Assn. of Student Councils. Student-Faculty Day, in which the Seniors in particular are active, is a favorite annual project sponsored by the Council. Food baskets are assem- bled at Christmas for needy families of the vicinity, and a dance last No- vember was run for the purpose of ob- taining a tape recorder for the school. Perhaps the most significant achieve- ment to note, is the Student Handbook, which explains to all just what Graf- ton High has to offer and why. The work done by the Student Council, often unsung, has nevertheless brought about much to improve our school.

Now, after prepar- ations and planning, three head majorettes, a drum major and a young mascot dressed as an Indian, lead fifteen precision strutters in a fine demonstration. Their premier performance was at a basketball game in January and since that time they have appeared at several more. The Central Mass. Music Festival will follow in the spring, along'with several parades to be presented in the community. ln fine accordance with our band the club will perform at future competitions in which our school is entered. All in all, the maiorettes have done a commendable job and will reach even greater heights in the coming years. rerun, , -.1 p,.,,, 5 if 5 J lim! The band is a recent and con- tributing factor to the enjoyment of Grafton '-Iigh's outside activities. Besides playing so important a part by itself, our school band lends a hand to other phases of entertain- ment -- parades, assemblies, bas- ketball games, and exhibitions such as the Central Mass. Music Festi- val. lt should not be forgotten eith- er that without accompaniment the Majorettes could not perform and the high school would be minus an activity which definitely belongs on the plus side. At the Bandorama two years ago, such a fine show was displayed that the first uniforms for the band were able to be purchased. Since that time, through efforts on both the part of the director, Mr. Orkiseski, and the musicians, that perform- ance can be and has been topped. The entire school feels pride in these accomplishments and looks for more of even greater magni- tude. First row, J. Perras, M. Leofanti, J. Smith, J. Walters, J. Perras, K. O'Connor: Second row, S.

Scholastic achieve- ment is also necessary, and a poor record on this score, if decided by two-thirds vote of members, results in expulsion from the organization. The main objective of the club is to promote school spirit and fel- lowship among the athletes. Our school has much to be proud of, for both players and spectators have displayed good sportsmanship and excited interest in all phases of sports. The ideals and new ideas brought about by the Varsity Club will surely activate even more the sports program at Grafton. 7 f A 5 First row, S. Lobrie, M. Caldwell, N. Dannenhauer, C. Amour, J.

White. lt should be remembered that girls as well as boys offer much to the sports picture at Grafton. One active example of this statement is the Girls Athletic Council, more of- ten known as the G.A.C. This club is for the primary purpose of sup- porting intramural sports between classes. Four representatives, Fresh- men--Seniors, are elected by their classrnates annually. These selected students act as referees at games played and also handle social ar- rangements such as parties and outings. The Council will continue to promote athletics between all students and plan fine intramural programs. 54 Firsl row, P Moore, P Kelly, J Cold- well, N Dannenhauer, M Nault, J Orrell, P Perkins Secona -ow, Miss Cafe, J Benoit, J Boutiene, J Lund- gren, A Cardin, B.

For many years the Glee Club has been one of Grafton's proudest possessions. We think it is one of the finest of many schools. The past two years have brought us an A rating at the Mass. Music Festival. This year we hope to bring home honors again. Each year there is a Concert sponsored by the Glee Club to which the public is invited. It is always a great success for the town is always eager to hear the splendid job they always do. The spring concert has become one of the main events on our school cal- endar. The Glee Club also sings at assemblies and graduation, much to the enjoyment of everyone. We have been fortunate in sending representa- tives to the State Chorus and this year we sent Pat Kelly, Norma Dannenhauer, David Girouardin, and Rod Corey to represent us in the Worc. Area Chorus held at the Bancroft School in Worcester. Something completely new has been added by Mr. Alvino and Mr. Orkiseski. Each member of the Glee Club must obtain enough points to get a letter through attending meetings and the Music Festival. If he does not have the required number of points, he will not be eligible for credit or a letter. In the coming years we hope that the Glee Club will retain the wonderful reputation it has gained through much hard work and a natural enthusiasm for music. 57 q'jMwLCfQQ6M'6QM97ZQ Q U C Q90 fd? ffzl-QMML wi?

We have enjoyed working with you and we have learned together how important it is for everyone to work side by side toward a common goal---knowledge. Perhaps it seemed to you in the past that high school was an endless stretch with no reward. At the end of next year, you will realize, as all of us have, that high school is a memorable experience that will remain vivid in all our hearts and minds for- ever. The leadership of G.H.S. now turns to you and we hope you make the most of it. Make your final quest for knowledge here a tribute to the school.
