JOHN HENRY BUSKEY 37 WEST WHEELOCK STREET Johnny never could lose his fondness for H.H.S., so after two years out on the Pacific Coast he retumed to his old classmates, who were more than glad to have him back for their senior year. Although one could be led to believe that John's big love is for airplanes, it is really for the invention that replaced the horse and buggy. An out- standing mechanic and salesman, with a wide knowledge of cars, Johnny may, after studying business, take over at the Inn Garage. Don't let his size fool you, for he has always been a fighter, and while in California he excelled as a wrestler. He is a perpetual firebrand, distinguished by his quick-as-a-cat movements and long strideg characterized by n big shy grin and friendly sense of humor. Assembly Committee 13 Latin Club 1. NORMAN STEWART CARR 9 RIVER RIDGE ROAD Norman, ne dansez pas! exclaims Mrs. Churchill as MonsieurCarr shuffles across the floor, completely absorbed in the presentation of his weekly French Current-event. A glowing blush and a scratch behind the ear indicate that he understands, and the shuffle is toned down to an almost unnoticeable movement of the feet. Norrie came to ns from the Mid-west, Norman, Oklahoma, to be precise, and the dispute still goes on as to whether the town was named for him, or he for the town. Norrie is famous for his basement brew, a homemade beverage with a distinctive taste and odor. His subtle wit makes him the life of any party, and his brilliant conversation enlivens many classes.

YVONNE MARIE CHOUINARD HANOVER CENTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE Yvonne's naturally curly hair is the envy of many a member of the fairer sex in H. H. S. Her long brown ringlets reaching to her shoulders could easily be an adver- tisement for Drene Shampoo. One of Mrs. Dupell's proteges, Yvonne is an expert seam- stress and models her own clothes to advantage. She uses this homemaking training in the kitchen too, in preparation for the day when that dream of a home of her own comes true. When Woodie and the Ramblers are holding a dance, you can be sure that Yvonne will be out on the dance-floor changing partners quickly as new admirers cut in. Cafeteria Aides 1, 2, 4. THOMAS CLYDE COLT III 21 SOUTH PARK STREET The South shall rise again! maintains our colorful counterpart from down Dixie way. Tom not only excels at arguing the Southern Cause, for he knows a great deal about the Civil War, but he also lives in true Southern style. He takes his time at every- thing and it is a rare occasion when Tom arrives in time for morning checkup. He is already on the way to an outstanding career in radio, and he may usually be found at the WDBS studio, working with his varied radio equipment, or lending the class a hand when electronic help is needed. A man of many interests, Luke has a fondness for high quality photography equipment, guns, and for the music of Benny Goodman. Although slow on foot, Tom has a craze for roaring around in his green Fraser. French Club 2, 3, 4: Football 2, 3.

JANET ELIZABETH BABCOCK 20 OCCOM RIDGE The week begins on Friday for Janet whose favorite diversion is folk-dancing. Although she'll tell you that she has an aversion to physical activity, when it comes to whirling around the dance floor, she is as enthusiastic and graceful as anyone. .lanet's penchant for reading leads her from the latest who dunnits? to the works of George Bernard Shaw, and she could easily be president of the Book-a-Day Club. Modern Creative Art is another love of ,lan's, and a look into the future shows her planning her new home without any chairs. Her feet hurt, she says, and it's much easier to sit on the Hoor.

FRANCES EVELYN BAILEY 38 LEBANON STREET One of '54's newest members, Fran came to our class from Canaan. An avid skater, both on rollers and blades, she also likes to ride horseback, and is well known on the trails of the Upper Valley. One might catch a glimpse of a high Hying baton, and he'd know at first glance that Fran is an accomplished majorette. On the more serious side, her favorite study is psychology, and with her deep understanding of people, and a gift for making one feel at ease, this should combine with teaching to give her a successful future.

It may be accompanied by a deep blush, or perhaps by gay laughter, anr it goes right along with her friendly and warm-hearted personality. Well-fitting clothe: are a trademark of the Braman family, and no wonder, for Barb's dexterity with a needle and thread turns many yards of material into outfits that one might see in a fashion show Gifted with culinary skill, Barb's admirers grow steadily in number as she transforms sugar, salt, and Hour into mouth-watering pies and cakes. It was Barbara's enthusiasm and leadership as President of the newly formed Future Homemakers of America Clulr that made it another popular and purposeful organization in H.H.S.

RICHARD DAVID BRANNEN 7 WEST STREET When Dirk left Westwood, Massachusetts, last summer, he had the choice of returning to Hanover, where he attended school until the fifth grade, or going to Texas. The class of '54 feels justifiably proud that he decided to return here. Dick quickly picked up il Hanover where he left off at Westwood, as a fine athlete, a rugged linesbacker on thn gridiron, and a pitcher on the diamond. He has such other varied interests as hunting fishing, and working with leather. Dick's painstaking and meticulous workmanship i indicated by his careful work in mechanical drawing and his neat, well-groomes appearance.

V I Y V ,V I ,.,. -fr' Q R LOIS ANN COOK NORWICH, VERMON'l When the sage said, Still waters run deep, he must have been thinking of some one like Lois, for although she is quiet on the outside, once one gets to know her h- fmds that beneath that quiet exterior there is a charming personality. Well known fo her competence in the commercial subjects, Lois will probably put this Hanover Higl training to good use as a secretary or bookkeeper. She is an ardent square dancer am often attends the Friday night festivities in Hanover Center. Lois has a vast recipe col lectiun and her culinary skill in trying out new dishes has proved her to be an excellen Cook. Secretarial Aides 3, 4. GLORIA AVA DAVIS NORWICH, VERMONT Gloria's soft voice is one which we think of often when remembering the Musical Clubs' programs of the last four years. Her real interest and serious ambition, however, lie in another field. After graduation, Glo will head for a nursing school, with the final goal in mind of becoming a nursing nun. Outside of school she is studying Latin and French in preparation for her future work. All of Gloria's time is not spent in serious pursuits, however, for she is a familiar figure at the Norwich roller skating, and a green thumb denotes an accomplished gardener.

No one who haf seen Janice slam locker No. 312 and dash off down the hall could fail to notice tht resemblance. Her volatile spirit and love for western music make her a popular partner at the various dances in the Valley. An early morning Hey, Sandra! whispered across control is inevitably followed by a conversation which includes giggles, gesticulations, facial expressions, and code, which, when deciphered means that there is hot news afoot. Her neat appearance and smart and varying hairdos make her seem to be a vivacious heroine for a novel that someone should write. Secretarial Aides 4. CHRISTINA LOUISE DICKEY 1 TUCK DRIVE Whether she is swishing down a snowy slope, making another field hockey goal, oi serving a hard, fast tennis ball, the athletic life is the life for Tina. However, the realn of sports isn't the only field in which Tina excels. For four years Crouse has been -cnc of the mainstays of the Student Council, and her sound arguments in a heated discussior in history class have often won opponents over to her side. Tina knows how to combine just the right proportions of sports, schoolwork, and social life so that she is successfu in everything she undertakes. Her genuine friendliness and interest in people impress all who know her, and her laughing, happy-go-lucky attitude is proof that good thing: come in tall packages.
