Joint, certainly was good. And Jim, playing the part of Mus, drew some hearty laughs, from the audience. Neither must we forget Buzz and Eloise, Pute, Ruth, the Gang- Bob, Ruth, Margie, Kay, Gertie, Gerry, Ken, Jim-Miss 'Crump and Mrs. :Petty. Thanks to Miss Moody iMiml, to our property managers, and to Jean McLaugh- lin, prompter, a fine preformance was a- chieved. On March 17, Lois Hovey was pro- nounced valdictorian of our class with an average of 96.32 percent. Phyliss Hardy, salutatorian with 95.87 percent, and Pat- ricla Russell with 95.83 percent for an average claimed the third honor part. Twenty-five others had 90 percent or better. lSoon after our graduation many of the boys, not only from the class of '43 but from the sophmores, too, will be inducted into the same branch of our fighting forces. Here's luck to you boys. To dear old Houlton High we bid adieu. Many happy times have been enjoyed withmin your walls, and we hope the seniors to come will have memories of you as dear to them as ours to us.

Senior Class History ln the fall ot' 1939 tliei'e migrated from .Iunior lligh to the Senior High School building a group of youngsters. Because we were all very timid, not iuuch was acc- omplished our first year. NVe elected class officers as follows: president, Bob Ander- song vice-president, Winnie Millerg secre- tary., Don McNuttg and treasurer, Margie Watson. Our outstanding athletes were Bob Anderson, Dick Niles, and Don McNutt. After becoming acquainted with Latin verbs along with algebra symbols, we pro- ceeded to the sophomore rooms. The same class officers prevailed in our sophomore year, but---we elected king and queen candidates for the circus, Dick Niles and Winnie Miller. XVe participated in our speakingcontestandthis showed still more ot' our hidden talent. We had matched up Phil and llob, but some of the girls liked senior boys .loyce and Phil, Winnie and Late, Margie and Buck. Juniors I I Now we were really in the lime-light. Dick played with the Varsity and a mighty good player be was! This was the year we thought we would grow np. The girls wore high heels, and the boys began to take their romances seriously. Our queen candidate was Margie Watson and our king. Albert Madigan. Our senior year opened with a bang!! Ilationing! Then came the scrap drive with privates, sergeants, and lieuteuants. Also the Uurtis campaiign, headed by Buzzy Gardiner finished with total receipts of 31.383, and a net school profit of S468.86. This was the greatest amount ever earned in Hi. ll. S. After oui' class officers had served three years, we decided they were tired. In their places were put Albert Mad- igan, presideutg Pat Russell, vice-presi- dent: secretary, Dick Nilesg Barb MacNair treasurer. Mac--, long. lean, and lJl0Ild--- sure show- ed us how to play basketball. Donnie McNutt was in there a'fightin', too. Dick Niles, the All Aroostook Ace , headed the league with 101 points. Galloping after him was good ole Bolicky Berry with 73 points. But where would our champs have been tif it hadn't been for their man- ager, .loe Vt'ilcox? The senior play, Plane Crazy , was excellent with Al, Pat and Winnie doing their stuff. But they were not alone. Lois, as Julie, proprietor tessb of Julie's Gyp SENIOR PLAY CAST
