CLASS HISTORY At last! We were finally old enough to go to school. Mrs. Hess started us off in a long, hard struggle to teach us to tie our shoes and to make us be quiet at nap time. The candy industry surely didn't go broke that year Of the present Senior class, eight girls started then: Gayle, Sue, Elaine, Lorraine, Judy, Cathy, Diana, and Juanita. After mastering the art of self-control (that is, to keep from shouting involuntarily), we moved on to Miss Stevens' class, where we learned to print our name and to read from our very first books. Having learned Sue from Tom, we moved on to Mrs. Vorce, who taught us to write and gave us an appreciation of art and music. Showing off our talents on triangles and xylophones, Lorraine Whitney, our Mayday queen, was crowned by Steve, gained that year from Watertown, and, as always seems traditional, she was crowned over the eyes. Our next move was into third grade taught by Mrs. Heath. Karen Bennett joined us here. We were to stay there for fourth grade, also. These two years were filled with the basic arithmetic facts. Into fifth grade we went, where Gary Rhodes joined us from Florida, only to find we didn't know the di- vision tables as well as we thought we did. We remember our sledding party on Ayles' Hill, however and how delicious the hot chocolate was afterwards. We were Mrs. Montague's last class to be taught by her, and we are indebted to her for a detailed study of history. In connection with one phase, the Middle Ages, she took us to see, Knights of the Round Table and Ivanhoe. At the end of the year, she arranged to take us to Massena to see the power dam, the St. Lawrence Seaway, as well as a ride into Canada. It was interesting, indeed. Upstairs we went, fearful, anxious, but audacious. We never realized there could be so many wrong rooms in one building. Here Pete and Rich (the yeah, yeah boy from Turin) joined us. We were confronted with numerous achievement tests, and it's probably better we didn't know their outcome. Advancing into eighth grade, we learned about the various composers from Mr. Wagner. In ninth grade we came under the leadership of Mr. Lamb, who was to be our advisor for the next four years. Here, too, we began our bi-weekly fudge and cookie sales. Two memorable paper drives composed our sophomore year. They were hard work, but we didn't mind. Penny Lane, our unprofitable but fun-to-decorate prom, was the highlight of our junior year. Ever notice how hard it is to decide on the color of crepe paper? Once we chose that, we changed our theme! (Thanks to Rich's quick thinking.) We also sold stationery that year. Now we are in the busiest year of them all--the senior year. Before performing our play, His Name Was Aunt Nellie, in which Steve played 3 parts: an actor, a loose-living redhead, and a Parisian rou , we had gone on our magazine campaign and were satisfied with our homely but cuddly mascots. For two years now, the Music Department has been active with its masterpiece No Salt Salts Like Morton Salt Salts. Incidentally that was our encore after the play. Sue and Pete came back this year after a trip to Niagara Falls. We're looking forward to our trip this Easter. Thanks to everyone who made these thirteen years so eventful and memorable to us. Wonder what happened to that red wig? The Class Of 1968 12
