SENIOR CLASS MEMORIES Tn grade one: — Kip Priest cried so hard that her mother had to take her home. Henry Walrath followed his mother home from school so many times they almost made him stay home until the next year. Mary LaRoue cried because she was seated between the Weaver boys and she wanted to sit beside her old pal, Anne Williamson. Tn crrade two: 'Darrell Best ate fifteen candy bars during recess. Barbara Wicks tried to milk Mary LaRoue1s long ringlets. Shirley Ritz came to school wearing one red sock and one blue sock. Tn grade three: The boys would chase the girls home, and If the girls were caught, the boys each collected a kiss. Sheila Scott and Charlie Ripley, who were in love, accidentally rang the fire bell. Jack Weaver tied Anne Williamson's pigtails around a post and wouldn't let her go- In grade four: We had a Christmas play In the basement with Mrs. Mayhew as our teacher, and we practiced for hours to learn our lines. All the village girls became proud members of the Polly Pigtail Club with Joan Clarke as chief refreshment server. While studying jungle stories during Social Studies class, Ken Carvell, using his pencil as a spear, Jabbed Johnny Miller In the arm. In grade five: Linda Ripley finally had her curls cut off. We published a class newspaper, Spring Breezes , with all the poems, stories, etc., by members of our class. Our Romeo , Curt Canfield, moved to town. In grade six: We all became very tired of making maps and booklets— the favorite project of our teacher. We moved Into the new part for the last three months, and Barbara Cole took a seat In the very back of the room where the teacher couldn't see her. Joyce Stevens went to Lowville for a year, and when she returned, we'd sit for hours listening to her tell about her many boyfriends. In grade seven: We spent much time visiting the elderly Harrlsvllle people to obtain information for the frieze and booklet about our town. When we found out that Kenny Carvell's grandfather was a real Indian, we all became very excited. Beverley had to act like an angel all year, because her father was on the school board. She admits she didn't do such a very good Job, though. In grade eight: We had so much fun at our picnic at Lake Bonaparte that, when it came time for us to go home, Mr. Shlnnlck almost had to call the police to get us to leave. Birdie Bassette and Anne Williamson traded boyfriends on the way home from a basketball game one night. Alyce Graham won so many ribbons on Field Day, we used them to decorate our cloak room. In grade nine: Our talent show was such a farce, all the talent refused ever to perform again— to no one's disappointment. If anyone ever mentioned the name Eddie Fisher, Anne Williamson would have un- controllable hysterics By June, Bob Davison had finally convinced Connie Sayers to stick to one boy- friend at a time for a while.

SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the SENIORS of '57, hoping some day we'll get to heaven, With great kindness of thought, and soundness of mind, Consider the ones we leave behind: To Mr. CLARK, now hold your breath, we leave a shovel to bury MacBeth. To Mr. ROSE, with all his curls, a gun and whip to fight off the girls. In every room a compass and rule, so, when needed, Mrs. CRING needn't search the school. To Mrs. WILLIAMSON —how kind we are, a dog house for her enormous car. To satisfy Mr. BROCH's ambition, we grant more time for huntin' and flshln'. To Mrs. GANNON, for her fine Italian dishes, tons of spaghetti and our good wishes. To Mls8 LEASE: Kleenex, a year's supply, to remind her of us when she wants to cry To Coach LANG, a sky hook, complete with cable, to hang up that wobbly ping-pong table. Since Coach DOOGAN listens to our Jokes with scorn, we give him a crib for storing his corn. We failed to meet Mr. LEBLANC's expectations, so we leave him a dozen well-earned vacations. To Mr. DOWDLE who works so hard, we bequeath his own private lumber yard. To Mr. GANNON, a compass — mariner style, so he'll find his way through his music file. A larger room for Miss EICHEEN, with a chamber maid to keep it clean. To Miss JONES, twenty-five cartons with addresses handy so she may send us homemade candy. To Mrs. ST. LAWRENCE, of whom we're proud, the hopes for a chorus that's not so loud. To Mrs. LADUC, who cleans our teeth, some good tasting cleanser1' we do bequeath. To Mr. MACDONALD, who rides while we drive, each day we'll pray that he'll survive To Dr. BOYDEN, whom we've left 'til last, for every suit, a dlfflrent colored cast.
