Joyce Hasty was picked for the foul shooting in Portland. Roberta Smith and Dorothy McLucas were picked to play in the All-Star game. Frances Pul- sifer was picked for the All-League team. Arthur Dearborn and a member of the junior class played in the All-League game. This was what the seniors contributed to in sports. During the year we have been quite successful at putting on suppers. The seniors were asked to put on a supper for the sportsmen and the poultrymen which we did very well with good results we thought. We also have had several food sales in which we cleared between S35 and 3540. ' I We presented .a play called Smarty- pants in which all of the seniors and three I- :fir of the juniors, namely Dolores Howard, Alton Black, and Vern Blake participated. We presented it two nights at the town hall then we put it on at the Odd Fellows' Hall at Hollis and we divided the profits from it. We got Sl5.l3 down there. The seniors are leaving on their class trip to New York and Washington, April 13, and we hope to see a few of the most important things that time will allow. It is coming near our time to gradu- ate and we are beginning to be busy with our class partsg four honor parts were given this year. They were given in this order: Mary York, Valedictoryg Roberta Smith, Salutatoryg Dorothy McLucas, First Honor Essay, and Arthur Dearborn, Second Honor Essay. I hope the rest of my classmates will be very successful at whatever they do. ' Graduation is June 8, and we wish all of our underclassmates the best of luck and happiness in the future years to come. S. A. R., '5l. 19504444444

SOKOKIS IV.4RRIORAAAAAAA LITERAR Y THIN ICE Tonight there was a skating party up to Potter Academy. lt was a social for the young people of the Youth for Christ group. This is a group made up of young people of several churches from different towns. The boys and girls went up in a truck. When they arrived Mary went into the gym but found nobody there. She went down into the kitchen but found only a woman who said that the young people were all down on the pond skating. She said it would be a five-minute walk down there. We struck out for the pond. When we got half way across the pond we came to some shell ice. Further on there was a bog. The boys and girls were on their way across the bog when .jackie and Laura started go- ing ahead of the other girls. Susan, Gracie and Mary were behind the rest ol' them. There was snow on top of the ice but walk- ing along they sank only a little bit into the snow. As they were going along at a good speed Susan stepped through the snow upon thin ice. Crack! went the ice. One foot crashed into the cold water. When she tried to get up the extra 'weight of her other foot caused that one to break through also. Both feet were in the water up to her knees. Afterward, Mary met the same fate and Grace stood there laughing. All of a sudden she slipped and sat down into the icy water, also. When they were near enough to the pond to hear the voices of the other young people they started yelling for someone to come and meet them so they could find their way down to the pond. The three girls reached the pond at last. The two that got their feet wet were cold but they put their skates on and went skat- ing just the same. It was fun for a while but Mary and Susan were too cold to enjoy it much. They both took off their skates and went up to the gym. When they got up to the gym they went down into the kitchen and put their cold feet into the oven. What a relief! When the rest of the gang came up from skating we all went into the room and sang songs. Meanwhile refreshments were pre- pared and soon we were served hot dogs and cocoa. There was a little cocoa left in the cups that had been used. Eating must have had a bad effect on the boys. They felt like throw- ing things to create a little excitement. They 44444441951 threw the cocoa at the girls which hit them on the sides of their faces. They also played football with one that they found there. jackie had half a cup of cocoa left when he saw Bobbie throw a football at him. He ducked under the table so he wouldn't get hit. The football hit the cup of cocoa and knocked it down jackie's neck. It was about ten-thirty when we left Pot- ter Academy to come home. XV e got on the wrong road but we went down and turned around. We got home about eleven-thirty. R. M. B., '52. MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE DENTIST l was five years' old the first time I went to the dentist. Since my teeth had been aching very badly my mother and sister juanita went with me. When we arrived at the office the dentist The nurse took was getting ready for me. off my coat and led me to the chair. After it up high and I was seated she pumped then tied a napkin around my neck. I was interested in looking at all the instruments and rather enjoyed myself for a few minutes. Then the dentist came in. He stood be- side me and told me to open my mouth. Be- cause I didn't open it wide enough for him to see much he stuck his fingers in my mouth. I didn't understand why he should put his fingers in 1ny mouth! I did what I thought was bestg I bit his finger. I wouldn't let go either. The nurse came and finally the dentist got his finger loose. The dentist came out and told my mother that he would take my teeth out in the hospital and not in the chair. I guess he decided he didn't want to take another chance of getting his finger bitten. I don't blame him either. I wonder if he ever remembers it. If he did he hasn't said anything about it to me. I always supposed Mother and Juanita knew I bit his finger, but when I mentioned it to them a short time ago, they told me they never knew. They teased me about it but I didn't mind it. It's funny to me now to think back and see myself sitting in that chair, biting Dr. Stockwell's finger as hard as I could. I don't suppose it was funny to him. N. J. s., '53. F fftzm
