K t .. . . .. .-.-,....,-,. .... . .., . THE SENIOR BOYS Junior Notes 'Pho junior class is very well represented this year in all the activities ot' the school. Many of the musical-minded can be found in the band and the orchestra. and some of the juniors are shaping into fine ath- letes. Helping the H. H. S. basketball team 011 to vivtory this year were speedy Gerard York, Verne Byers, Dorson Plourde, Aub- roy Grant. and Jim Mc-Gaffin. The last men- tioned will gro into the army at the close of school. Earl Bickford. Aubrey Grant, Norman Dec-haino, and .lim MOGaffin did their bit on the track team. Dechaine. who enlist- ed in the Navy. has been deferred until the close of school, too. Hill Riley has left our fold and is doing all right for himself in the U. S. Navy. After a long wait our class rings finally came. and at once furious swapping began. A few examples of this are: Anne Fraser and Dewey Gidney, Joyce Robinson and Jack Smart, Verne Byers and Diggie Larson, and Pat O'Donnell and Bill Ford. Keeping up their good work this year are our two talented singers Larry Wood- cook and Harriette Watson. Besides participating in outside activities most juniors manage to maintain a fairly high ranking average. Too, this class is well represented in both the English Club and the Honor Society. Although we haven't done anything real- ly outstanding as a class as yet. we feel that we are ready, willing, and able to pick up where the seniors leave off. H. W.

Sophomore Notes In this class of 1945 we find some if the best talent yet to reach Houlton High. Of course, we must first mention the Pres- ident. Bob McCormack, who is also one of our most promising basketball players. Stan Greaves, Elliot Berman and Bob MacNair also show g1'eat possibilitfies in the field of basketball. Brick Dunphy contributes to the talent of this class with his crooning. Gloria Dow, with all her extra wind and talent, does a great job in the band and orchestra with her sax. And the ever pres- ent glamour boy rin every class is repre- sented by H. McNutt, the answer to a maiden's prayer. B. Rush could be the answer to a maiden's prayer if he didn't talk so much. The girls in this class are very bashful, especially Jane F., but she'll get over it and wonder what held her back. .Last but not least we have those who are slightly off the beamg no slams, but P. Grant is an excellent example. In spite of all we've said, we feel sure this class will win success and be a credit to Houlton High School in the years to come. Here's luck to the class of '45, M. B. Freshmen Notes This class has had its first thrill of be- ing members of Houlton High School. Next year they will be sophisticated sophomores. or at least for the sake of all concerned we hope they will be more sophisticated. The president, Oscar French, is one of the intellectual type. He can carry Latin and similar subjects and come through with a's without studying-much. Henry Baulch is doing very well with his music and will be better as the years go by. The girls in this class cannot seem to contain themselves and spend their time looking for something to giggle at. J. Gartley, known as Uppy, is one of the most sophisticated, so you can see how hopeless the situation is. However, these same boys and girls are fitting themselves into the present day labor shortage by holding part time jobs. The medal for ambition should be award- ed to E. St. Peter in view of the fact that he is holding down two jobs and look at the size of him! Yet we know this class will grow in mind and stature and prove itself worthy of the fine traditions of our school.. M. B. THE GIRLS' GLEE CLUB 14
