Today we elected class oiiicers. They are as follows: President jean Pushard Vice-President Julia Bunker Secretary Nancy Howard Treasurer Mahlon McMullen Student Council Representative john Edgerly October 12, 1951. The much awaited Freshman Initiation was held. After a dav iilled with tricks and laughter, we had an evening program with the Freshmen being the actors. Later in the evening everyone had fun at a social. F renee Hewey, Bryce Meldrum and Robert Taylor. Norman Trenholm and Robert Taylor went out for track and cross coun- try. Norman has been one of our best run- ners. All of the boys were out for fall base- ball, and they plan to play this spring. Betty Kirkwood and Bryce Meldrum prepared for public speaking. Although sickness forced Betty to drop out during the last week, we were proud that Bryce was awarded third place. Beverly Boyn- ton, Christie Packard, Ioan Trask and Bryce Meldrum have participated in dra- matics. Three of our class members have been honor students this year. They are Bever- ly Boynton, Betty Kirkwood, and Bryce Meldrum. 1954 Ianuary 18, 1952. In an endeavor to raise money for our class treasury we held a social. For music we had the opportunity to be the first class to use the school's new Audio-Master. Charlotte Leeman and Dorrance 'Taylor were not with us at the beginning of the year. Basil Chadbourne, Nelson Pinkham, and Marilyn Raymond did not return after Christmas. That means that the relatively large class we had last year is now rather small. We have been active for the benefit of CLASS OF 1953 Seated fleft to rightl: Hewey, C. Packard, Tav lor, Boynton, N. Trenholm. Standing: J. Trask, Dunham, B. Meldrum, Flannigan, Parsons, Watson.

Last fall in the magazine campaign our class won the prize for selling the most sub- scriptions. Leone Chadbourne was high sales girl. Although Mahlon McMullen was second for boys, we feel thathe did well, because he was only slightly- under the winner for the boys, and he sold more than any girl. We have been well represented in sports. Mahlon McMullen ran cross country. john Edgerly and Norman Knapp played base- ball. N Mahlon has played basketball and has even acted as captain this year. Norman and Iohrfwere assistant managers of bas- ketball. Among the girls' Katherine Loucks played basketball, Jean Pushard was cheer- leader, and Leone was manager of the girls, team. f 1 Q . When the school put on the three one- act plays, Norman and Victor Nichols had speaking parts, Leone was prompter, and John and Mahlon were property mana- gers. Norman has been busy this year. Besides being treasurer of Student Council, he was elected assistant editor of the year-book and was awarded second place in the local speaking contest. He has been on the honor roll each ranking pericgl. CLASS OF 1955 President Amanda Winter V ice-President David Edgerly Secretary Shirley Wilbur Treasurer Methel Atwood Student Council Representative Muriel Winter Twenty green, but enthusiastic, Fresh- men climbed the stairs to begin their first year of high school 'September 5, 1951. Four months after school opened, Lynette Douglass left us to enter Stratton High School. Since that time she has rejoined us, making us still a total of twenty. On October twelfth the annual Fresh- man Initiation was held. The required -dress was varied and mirth-provoking. Our class was well represented by our girls and boys on the basketball teams. For girls there were Methel Atwood, Ioanne Meldrum, Shirley Wilbur, and Amanda VVinter on the squad. Boys playing were Sonny Dyer, David Edgerly, and Clifford Norton. Methel Atwood, Shirley Wilbur, and Amanda VVinter were cheerleaders. Muriel Winter was assistant manager for the girls. Clifford Norton and David Edgerly were on the cross country team. George Daw- son, Sonny Dyer, David Edgerly, Donald Moody, and Clifford Norton played fall baseball. Shirley Wilbur and Amanda Winter took part in the one-act carnival play, Collec- toris Itemv. Earlier in the year Methel Atwood, George Dawson, Joanne Meld- rum, jean Morrison, Ioan Packard, Shir- ley Wilbur, Amanda Winter, and Muriel Winter took part in the three one-act plays. Methel Atwood, lean Morrison, Shirley Wilbur, Amanda Winter, and Muriel Win- ter took part in public speaking. jean was awarded first prize in our local contest. The same five girls, Methel, jean, Shir- ley, Amanda, and Muriel, have been honor students. These events mark some of the higher spots of our Freshman year in Kingheld High School. Page Ten The Abram Breeze Summa SCHOOL SPIRIT What is School Spirit? It is cooperating with the people of the school, being willing to do your share to help and taking some of the responsibility yourself rather than letting the other fellow do it all. One of the largest things is cooperating with the teachers in the classroom and being courteous in class. Do your share in school activities. If your school is having a scrap drive, do your best to help out. Or if one of the classes is having ad dance or something similar, help them out. Keep your school rooms clean and also your grounds. The janitor does not like to clean up your messes. In basketball season back your cheerleaders while they are on the floor or on the sidelines. Cheer for your team, but be sure to show good sports- manship toward the opposing team. Be willing to help out on committees you are appointed to. If your class is hav- ing a meeting, state your ideas there rath- fr than after it is too late. Help out your Student Council by giving your ideas to your representative. Let him put the idea across for you. The care of school property is one of your greatest responsibilities in school. Do not mark on books, desks, or on the build- ing inside or out. Take care of the bus if you want to be able to use it again. While in other towns respect their property as you would want them to do with yours. If in school activities, do all the necessary work without complaining. H Y Always be loyal to your school at all times no matter where you are. Take an interest in your class, also. If you are loyal to .your school, if you take responsibilities cheerfully and if you represent your school willingly, you can Page Eleven be truly proud of your school. You may be said to possess School Spirit. Leon V Chadbourne ,54 THE BABE RUTH SPORTSMANSHIP PROGRAM AWARD The Babe Ruth Sportsmanship Award was started in 1949, sponsored by the American Association for Health, Nation- al Association of Secondary School Prin- cipals and the Babe Ruth Foundation. Its purpose is to arouse enthusiasm for good sportsmanship and fair play in the schools and among the general public. With the many shameful scandals, as the basketball betting uiixesv, the sports world has become alarmed. They feel that if fair play is started in high school, the individual will be more able to refuse bribes that might be offered by racketeers to him as an athlete in college. For every school that enters there is a trophy, which remains with the school and which bears the names of each year's win- ners. For the two students so honored, one girl and one boy, there is a Babe Ruth medallion. Athletes are eligible for the award but so are the cheerleaders, student managers, and even those who have no skill for ath- letics. The only requirement is a contribu- tion to good citizenship. The selections for the award are made by the students of the school. A The students in our school who received the award for the current year are Betty Kirkwood and Richard Trenholm. Kinglield High School is one of the for- tunate schools to have the honor of giving this award. It gives the students something to strive for while they are in high school, and it is certainly a great honor to receive such an award. Betty Kirkwood 353 in The Abram Breeze OUR NEW AUDIO-MASTER For years Kingheld High School has needed a new record player. We have talked several times of doing something about purchasing one, but not until this year have we acted. Through the action of the Student Coun- .cil we now have a portable machine, which will play all three speeds of records and transcriptions. Although it was not too ex- -pensive, it is good looking. What is more important, it has a very clear tone and loud volume. It also provides space to plug our microphone into the machine itself and use that from the same sound box. So far we have made good use of it. It is played when school is not in session for the benefit of those who come early or who take lunches. It has been used in classes to play records for filmstrips and recordings of historical events as they hap- pened. It was used by one class to furnish music for a social. And by use of it music was enjoyed by all who attended the speaking contest. We are all happy that once more we have a victrola that really works. Gloria Dyer '52 THE SCHOOL BUS The athletic teams at our school had the fortune to have the use of the newly purchased bus this year. This has been a help in various ways. It has been much .easier since we havenit had to find trans- portation in individual cars for games away from home. It has allowed more students to enjoy out-of-town events. The bus is considered much safer than a group of cars. It has been a benefit to the towns- people who would have to furnish cars for transportation. Parents like the safety and the fact that all the students ride to- gether with a safe driver at the wheel. With no mishap to mar our record, we have traveled over eight hundred miles in the bus for basketball games. For this privilege the school has paid over one hundred sixty dollars. This has been such a drain upon our treasury that we felt we must charge a small sum to each person riding to the games on the bus. Never- theless, we have felt that it was a definite advantage to be able to use the bus. It has been an improvement over the old system of hunting up individual cars to take the teams. Malcolm Knapp '52 MOVIE MANNERS Are there such things as good 'imovie mannersv? How should one behave in a movie hall? Do such manners differ from every-day good manners? In the following paragraphs I have at- tempted to answer the questions stated above. A mannerly person is a gracious, kind, and considerate one. At the movies there is no excuse for poor manners. The first place to practice good manners is at the ticket window and candy counter. Wait your turn, never elbow your way to the front. When a boy and a girl go to the movies, the girl follows the usher except when there is no usher. Then her escort leads, but he allows her to enter the row first. The boy sits between the girl and the aisle. Often when a group of boys and girls go to the movies together, the boys let the girls follow the usher first, but once seated, they find themselves not sitting beside the girls they took. In a case such as that, it is better to follow the usher in the order you wish to sit. Once seated, forget squirming, whisper- Page Twelve ing, and all other noise-making disturb- ances. This may mean not eating pop corn and candy. Frequent passing in and out over the feet of others is also very annoy- ing, avoid it. If you arrive after the movie has begun, take a seat near the back, and if you have to shove by a person, don't forget, Pardon men or, 'Tm very sorryf, The polite thing for the person seated to do is to rise and push back his seat to give room for you to come in. ' Never wear a wide brimmed hat or one with many feathers unless you plan to take it off, and a lady is expected to wear her hat in public. A man must remove his hat upon entering the building. If you have seen the movie before, donit start telling those around you the story. They came to see the movie, not to hear you. Love making in a movie hall, as in any public place, is definitely taboo. Do not indulge in it. To quote from another: Manners may be compared to tickets because they make it much easier for us to get places, to get along in life, and to get along with peoplef' Let us all remember that good manners are the same, Whatever the situation. Let us, each and every one, strive to remember the rules and practice them in the movies. Beverly Boynton ,53 Page Thirteen The Abram Breeze THE MAGAZINE CAMPAIGN This year, the same as last, We had a representative of the Crowell-Collier Pub- lishing Company come to our school to get a magazine campaign started. This company has many popular magazines in- cluding The Americanv, VVoman,s Home Gompanionv, and Good Housekeeping, The four classes competed against each other. Each class chose a captain, who each day would collect all subscriptions sold the day before and the money for them. The class captains, in turn, gave the money to two pupils acting as secretaries for the entire school. The class getting the most sales got a commission for doing so. There was a gift for the girl and the boy that got the highest number of sales. The students worked to earn points in order to receive small gifts for selling. Although our sales and profit this year rose in comparison with those for last year, even more students should enter Whole- heartedly into the campaign. Only a small per cent of our enrollment secured any sales. An even smaller number brought in enough to really allow us to reach our goal, and to exceed the mark set for us by the company. In spite of this we ended with a profit of over seventy-five dollars. We hope that next year We will have even better cooperation and that We will again surpass the amount of profit pre- viously realized by our school.

Oh, I have a headache, and my stom- ach doesn't feel very goodf' she replied in an offhand manner. I donit think you had better go to school, Dear. Go to bed, and Iill be back in a minute. I have to get your sisteris breakfastf, and with that Mom bustled out. Ho, ho! I guess I fooled herf, janey thought. I get so 'fed up, with school. Now, I,ll spend the day in bedf, Sighing luxuriantly, she picked up a movie maga- zine and settled down into the pillows. It,s so convenient to be 'sick, when you donit want to go to schoolf' Presently, her mother came in. ujaney, I dont want you to read, because it will make your headache worsef, Not wishing to spoil her scheme, she obeyed. What would you like for breakfast, Dear? Some fruit juice and toast is easy to digest and wouldnit be too heartyf, Mom said with authority. Yes, I guess that will be okayf, said janey with a sinking heart, for she wanted a big breakfast. She thought, I can have an early dinner with the trimmingsf, Mom soon returned with a small piece of toast and a glass of orange juice. Take these pills, Dear. The green one is iron and liver, the red one is a cold capsule, and the white one is for your headache? Gosh!v thought janey. How many more are there?v Later her mother had to go down to the Page Twenty-One The Abram Breeze 6 corner store for some things for dinner. 'Tll go upstairs after that mystery story while Mom's gone, and sheill never know the difference? jane went upstairs and be- gan hunting. What do you suppose I did with it? Is it in the box next to the door or the one near the window? I think I put it in the box next to the doorf, She rum- znaged around and not finding it in one, looked in the other. Glancing out the win- dow, who did she see coming, but her mother? Moml she gasped. janey scrambled up, rushed downstairs, and leaped breathlessly into bed. Natural- ly her face was flushed, and her heart was beating wildly. c'Why janey, how red your face is! Iim going to take your temperaturef, Mom rushed into the bathroom and came back with a thermometer. My goodness, your temperature is one hundred one degrees and six tenths. You certainly wonit go to school this afternoonf, Am I ever hungry? The breakfast I had wouldnit fill a mouse. Mom probably wonit let me have a big dinner. About now I could eat a huge potato, ankequally huge piece of steak, and two kinds of vegeta- blesf, Her mouth watered at the mere thought. Mom was getting dinner and the delicious smells drifted in. She flopped over and buried her face in the pillow. Sally came home from school and went in to see her aillv sister. Hi, janey, Boy, would I like to be in your shoes, - I mean' in bedf she giggled. c'It must be great to stay home, if you aren,t really sick. VVell, I have to eat and run to schoolf, I wish I had gone to school, thought the now miserable janey. For dinner jane had shredded wheat. orange juice, and pills. Then, Mom told The Abram Breeze the still hungry girl to sleep. The after- noon finally passed and supper came. More shredded wheat, more orange juice, and more pills. Also something new - cod liver oil. 'cHadn,t you better go to sleep now, Dear? Maybe if youjre better in the morn- ing, you can go to schoolf, 'lSchool! Dear Lord, please forgive me for faking sickness. Iill never do it again. live learned my lesson. Please let me go to school tomorrow, and I'll always be grateful. Amen!', jean Morrison '55 A BEAR STORY My brother decided to go to the Cat- skill mountains hunting bears. They had been giving the farmers in the region a lot of trouble, the sheep were disappearing and the dogs could not cope with the situ- ation. Therefore, bear hunting in this re- gion was more than just a sport. It was quite cold, but Bobby, being a rugged individualist, did not mind how 'cold it was just so long as he had warm feet. Having arrived at Cairo, he pur- chased canned goods and some chocolate. He intended to stop at a lodge halfway up the slope. It was three oiclock in the afternoon when Bobby, now happily settled in the lodge, decided to take a walk. The shadows were falling across the path and the big tree branches groaned and whined like something alive. No doubt the hair bris- tled a bit on the back of his neck. He start- ed to whistle to bolster his courage, but he stopped suddenly, for within about eight yards of where he was standing there appeared a bear cub. At this point he did not know whether to shoot or to walk up to it. Throwing all caution to the wind and thinking it would be nice to have a cub for a pet, Bob walked toward it. Then the very rocks seemed to come alive, and from behind one hurtled a huge bear. Bobby really made good use of his legs. He rushed down the path so fast that he surprised himself at the speed he could make if it was necessary. Do not think he was too frightened to continue his hunting trip, for now he knew just where to get a bear. Having fortified himself with a cup of hot chocolate, he de- cided to return to the path. This time he was fully prepared and was quite calm when the big bear came into view. He made a clean shot and felt it was a good dayis work. Patricia Walker ,55 ABSENT MINDED Sally, better get up, itis almost 6:30.', Oh, Oh! Thatis Motheris voice. Gee Whiz! I could sleep the rest of the morning if it wasnit for school. Well, Iid better roll out, if I donit, Iill fall back to sleep sure as anything. c'I,ll be right down, Motherf, Gosh! Why did they ever invent such a thing as school? And why do I have to live so far from school that I have to get up so early to meet that old bus. I could catch a few winks of sleep going to school if that bus wasn't so rickety and if the roads werenit so rough. Well, no use lying here dreaming, better get downstairs and eat so I'll have time to put up those lunch- es. Darn the cold dinners day in and day out - cold sandwiches for dinner. Some people are lucky they live so near to school they can go home to a nice hot dinner. Well, better hurry and finish putting up these dinners so I can comb Sis's hair. Then Weill have to start for school. How nice! It snowed again last night. Thereis so much snow I don't think it will ever be hot enough to melt it. Whatis that noise? Oh, no! The wind is blowing again! Page Twenty-Two Thereill be more great snow drifts. By the time we get home tonight it will be drifted so high weill have to wade to our waist. There. All set now, must hurry or we won't have time to make the bus. Boy! Is it cold this morning? Iill be glad to get on the bus. Oh, I would! I for- got to bring my lunch, Iill have to run back to get it. There, now I'll try again. fll be glad when we donit have to climb this hill. Thereis the bus waiting, I think. No, it's just a truck stopped for something. Oh, dear! Maybe the bus has gone off and left us. Better hurry. I donit see it anywhere, Guess weill have to wait. My goodness! Eight-thirty and still no bus. Something must be wrong. If he doesnit hurry, Iill freeze to death. Let me see now, what subjects have I got today? Might as well do a little review- ing while I'm waiting for the bus. Oh, no! Donit tell me. We donit have any subjects today, today is Teachers, Convention and we donit have any school! Where is my mind? All this hustle and bustle for noth- ing. I knew school was getting me, but I didnit know I was getting that bad! Now I have to walk all the way home again. Nancy Howard ,54 RANGELEY GAME It is around six p. m. on the night of the big event. The girls, and the boys, bas- ketball teams are to play Rangeley here at home. The people are pouring into the hall. They are all afraid they wonit get a seat. I do not blame them any. In a lit- tle while Rangeley arrives with a large group of spectators. Since they have to take a chance on getting seats as every- body else does, they come early. From the schoolhouse windows, whole strings of cars pan be seen coming across the flat. Not all of them are coming from Range'- Pcsge Twenty-Three L The Abram Breeze ley, however, some are from Phillips or Strong. A little before quarter of seven, our girls troop over to the hall to warm up. The hall is already packed. Still the people come. The bleachers along the side and on the stage are full. The late arrivals have to stand out in the hall. The game starts as near seven as pos- sible. It is a close game from the first whis- tle all the way down to the last one. We have only one cheer leader for this game, for the other three are on the team. The hall is in an uproar all the time. The Rangeley group is making as much noise as we are. When it is over, at last, we find that we are several points ahead. Can we be in the boys, game that follows? When the boys file onto the floor, the crowd goes wild. After the warm-up per- iod, there are the usual pre-game activi- ties. The referees confer with the acting captains for each team. Cheer leaders, we now have four, are out on the iioor. Thereis the last minute conference with the coach, then the whistle blows. The cheer leaders hurry off the floor into the corner. The boys take their places and shake hands with their opponents. The tense crowd becomes quiet with expecta- tion. Who is going to get the first tap? Vvlho will get the first basket? During the first half we are ahead two or three times. It looks as though we might be able to pull through to a close victory. But again and again they over- take us to even up the score or to go ahead. It is very closely matched. When the teams return for the final half, everyone is ready for a fast game. The spectators are even more noisy than they were in the first half, if that is possible. Gradually Rangeley pulls out in front and stays there. Although our boys continue to play good basketball, they canit again The Abram Breeze close the gap and go ahead. When it is all over, we have lost. Then the players for both teams go over to the schoolhouse for a cup of hot cocoa and some cookies. After a short while the visitors have all gone. Mac finishes call- ing in the scores to the paper. The cups and dishes are cleaned up. Soon every- body is gone, the schoolhouse is dark. The big night is now a thing of the past. Leone Chadbourne ,54 HUNTING IS' FUN! This hunting season I had gone hunting with Richard several times. Since we had not had any luck at even seeing any game, one night I came home from school and told my mother that I was going hunting. She asked if I was going up to Richardjs to go with him. I said, KNO, because we never have any luck. Iim going up into the Companyis cuttings alone., I left the jeep at the road. It was near- ing dark by that time so I walked up an old logging road for quite a distance, then I started home. On the way out I came into a field and pulled up my gun just to see if I could see my sights. just as I took my gun from my shoulder, I saw two white tails going across the Held. I got my gun back to my shoulder, sighted right down line, and shot. I could not see if I got anything or not because it was so far away. Then another deer came running out. I took off running across the field to see if I had got one. Then I saw a deer get up and try to go. It could not use its hind legs at all. I ran over to where it had stopped and killed it. It was a doe that weighed about two hundred pounds. I had to drag it back across the field, and was my heart beating when I got through dragging and putting it into the jeep! When I went home and told moth- er, she didnit believe me. I finally con- vinced her to look. Was she surprised! Odlin Thompson '52 PLAY DAY Saturday, january 12, 1952, the girls, basketball team was invited to Farming- ton State Teachers College for a Play Day. Ten girls represented Kingfield. Other teams there were Mexico, jay, Wilton, Farmington, Strong, New Sharon, and Bangeley. When we arrived, we were told to change into our basketball suits and to register. Each one of us could choose any one of ten colors, but each girl from one town had to have a different color from the others of her own town. This made ten teams with eight girls on a team, and no two from the same town. After we had registered, we had three relay races on pivoting. dribbling, and passing. The yellow team, which I was on, and the green plaid team, which Glo- ria Dyer was on, were in the lead for these relays. After eleven oiclock we enjoyed different kinds of square dancing. We took our own sandwiches for lunch and the college served us cocoa, cookies and apples. After dinner each team was assigned to a college girl who took us for a tour of the campus. This was very interesting. When we returned to the gym, two women gave us a talk on the new rules of 1952 for girls, basketball. This proved very helpful. After this each team gather- ed and chose a captain. When we had been lined up, we played a series of games similar to the boys Round Robin. A team could play until it lost. My team, the yel- low, won the finals. The red team on which Beverly Boynton played was sec- ond and Glorials team was third. All the Page Twenty-Four girls on the winning team were awarded silver cups and had their pictures taken with them. I enjoyed Play Day verymuch. Best of all, I met many new friends. joan Trask 153 WHICH? Movies, television, or radio? Which comes first in education, first in enter- tainment, first in instruction? It is hard to say. Here in Kingfield we do not have television and so have to choose between radio programs and the movies. With television you can see the event as it actually takes place. Examples of this could be the home coming of General MacArthur, the notorious criminal trials, sitting in on the United Nations meetings, and similar incidents. All of these things are educational. There are also jack Ben- ney shows, Arthur Godfrey shows and many others for entertainment. Too, they have instructions in different things, such as how to act in case of an atom bomb attack. The radio has all of these features, too. But one does not get nearly so much out of them as if he could see them, too. The screen employs all of the above mentioned, too. But very few people go to the movies just to see the newsreels. The producers know that movies don't make a hit if they arerft glamorous, hair- raising and a little unreal. Of course, there are good pictures. But how many? Not nearly so many as there are bad ones. So for their value in entertainment, in education, and in instruction they rank in this order: television, first, radio, second, movies, third. Virginia Trask 752 Page Twenty-Five The Abram Breeze 1952 This year is the time for election And it must be made to perfection, It may be a little daft But some will vote for Taft. The president will need an advisor And we hope he is 21 miser! He must have power to smash ,em So I'll recommend Stassen. L. Hewey 353 PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN 'I he race is on and who will win Is rather hard to say. It might be Taft, just like his kin, Or Stassen, from across the way. Perhaps itis Kefauver with his crime, Or Truman back in the race, General Ike could beat everybodyis time, For heis our military ace. . C. Howard 152 THE A-BOMB VVe thought that now we have the A-bomb Everything would be all right That We'd live in peace and security And never have to fight. But Russia, too, has the bomb And they have different ideas, If we both fight and donit use our heads The whole world may disappear. E. Parsons ,53 DEMOCRACY 'When the president recalled MacArthur from the East, All hopes of ending the war were ceased. Itis true old Doug was a stalwart man, And he stood his ground on many a sand, But Ridgeway is doing full as well - His troops have gone ahead pell mell. The Communists are stubborn, but striped' too, And their mistakes will help pull us through.

The sea- son started well with quite a few girls participating. After the season was really started, Ioan Packard, lean Pushard, Pa- tricia Walker, and Muriel Winter dropped off the squad, leaving us with only twelve on the team. Muriel, we later learned, was to be assistant manager of the team and jean was to be one of the cheer leaders. Leone Chadbourne was our manager. We have had two coaches this year. For the hrst part of the year, Mr. Graham coached us. Later, after Mr. Powell became the teacher of the seventh and eighth grades, he was our coach. We have had a total of six girls leading cheers for both the boys, and girls, games. although only four cheered at any one time. Jean Pushard, Shirley Wilbur, and Amanda Winter cheered all season. Lyn- ette Douglass started as the fourth one. XVhen she moved to Stratton, she was re- placed by Patricia Walker, when the snow began to pile down, Patsy found it very hard to get to all the games. From then on Methel Atwood became the fourth girl of the group, and she finished the season with the other three. All the girls did Well and helped to cheer the teams on, not only when everything was going smoothly, but also when the going was more difli- cult. The highlights of the season were our games with Rangeley. Although we lost the game at Rangeley by a very close score, we won the game played against them at home.

Page Thirty-One The Abram Breeze BUYSQ ATlHIlLlETllCCS Cross-Country: - The Cross Country boys ran three meets last fall, losing the first one at Phillips and winning the other two held at Kingfield and at Strong. Since the one at Strong was the County Meet, our boys are County winners again this year. Track: - Along with the cross country running, a few track events were held. Of these Kingfield Won the first two and lost the third. We plan to run off the usual class contests in track this spring, in prep- aration for a meet with other schools. Fall Baseball: - In all, We played six games of baseball last fall. Of these We Won two from Strong, split with Phillips, got a Win over Bangeley, and lost to North New Portland. Basketball: - The boys had a fair sea- son. In their own league they stood third at the end of the season. In the Franklin County Tournament, Kingiield played a very good game against jay in the first round, but it wasn,t quite good enough. The next day Kingfield de- feated New Sharon. On the following Sat- urday, we lost a close game to Phillips. Having gained a place in the VVestern Maine State Tournament, held this year at Sanford, Kingfield, in our first game, trounced Phillips. This was rather sur- prising because we had already been de- feated by Phillips three times during the season. The next day, however, we lost to YVest Paris. Still later we took part in the Strong Invitational Tournament. Here we de- feated Dixiield. Strong and Stratton in that order, to become the winners. At this Tourney Bob Tufts was presented a cup for good sportsmanship. The season record of games played is as follows: Kingfield 38 New Sharon 25 S 53 Prangeley 60 3, 65 New Sharon 31 62 N. N.

Wyman Cecil S. French Earl L. Wing Everett L. Pushard Herbert S. Wing g Some facts about this Bank. No notice ever required for withdrawals. We have paid one hundred eleven semi-annual dividends, amounting to S347,68O.7I. The average dividend rate since its incorporation is 3.42 70. This does not include seven extra dividends. We have a surplus consisting of Reserve Fund !B'IO0,000, and Profit and Loss Account fS'I7,438.06, total S1I7,438.06. The State Law requires transfers from Profit and Loss to Reserve Fund until the Reserve Fund equals 504, of the deposits. The new Federal Tax Law applies to all savings banks having over 127, in its Reserve Fund. This Bank has a surplus of over T870 of its deposits. This ample provision for any contingencies that may arise is sufficient, and at present there is no necessity for increasing its surplus. It is contemplated that increased dividends may be paid to its depositors. The increase will start with the April 'I952 dividend. HERBERT S.
