The mighty rush began in 1849 when gold was discovered at Captain Sutter's mill in the beautiful Sacramento Valley. Thousands caught the gold fever, and soon people were Hocking from all parts of California to the gold- diggings. Merchants and mechanics, farmers and professional men, gamblers and thieves, all started on a mad rush for the new El Dorado. Men from every walk of life abandoned their pursuits to stake out claims in the 'L diggings '1 from which they often took a fortune in a few weeks, Most of them, their motto California or bust U, came from the East by mountain passes and through canyons which it seemed incredible any Wagon could ever have crossed. Many made the long journey in ships around Cape Horn. They braved such dangers as starvation, the fever of the alkali wastes, attacks of the lndians, and left a tell-tale track of broken wagons, dead animals, and human bones. Yet, even in 1949, there are frontiers which call to the restless and adventurous. Today, students at L.F.H.S. are seeking, not the quick fortunes of 1849. but a treasure perhaps more permanent and more satisfying. Here are being made, not only school-day friendships and golden memories to endure the rest of a lifetime, the classes attend to the gaining of knowledge, often buried fathoms deep , to preparing for useful and noble lives. High en- deavor. the building of strong character, de- votion to school, community, nation, the attain- ing of a united world: these ideals draw like a magnet. Through discouragments and mis- fortunes L. F. students seek the new limitless El Dorado. OFF T0 SACRAMEN FO F.F.A.

HALCYON DAYS OF AUTUMN, 1948 i I r 4 Q V OUR SUPERINTENDENT Succeeding to the superintendency of Union 130 after a nineteen year record as principal of L.F.H.S., Stephen A. Griffin is continuing to administer school affairs with the tact and foresight that formerly gained him an outstanding reputation for the high school in a variety of fields. Courteous, helpful, and genuinely interested in youth, Mr. Griflin has given most generously of his time and energy to further not only the scholastic ambitions of hundreds of L.F. boys and girls, but also to direct and guide such constructive and satisfying interests as photography, radio, and Scout work. His leadership has manifested itself, too, in the loyal support he has won from teachers, townspeople, and students past and present, who regard him as a good counsellor and SUPERINTENDENT S. A. GRIFFIN staunch friend. Mr. Griffin A.B. and M.A. KU. of MJ was two years 11938-19405 president of the Androscoggin County Teachers' Association. In 1939 he was a delegate to the N. E. A. Convention in San Francisco, and a member of the Executive Committee of the Maine Teachers' Associationg from 1940-1943 a member of the Basketball Tour- nament Committee of the M.T.A. Mr. Griffin has been a contributor to such magazines as the Journal of Education and Student Life. THE SUPERINTENDING SCHOOL COMMITTEE In considering the schools of a community it is easy to overlook one factor that, more often than not, is a de- termining force in the success or failu1'e of local education. That factor is the school board. Fortunately Liver- more Falls has been noted for the high caliber of its school committees over the years. As our community, un- like many others, has never considered the school committee a training ground for politicians but rather an op- portunity for genuine service to citizens and future citizens, it has been able to get and hold professional or busi- ness men of ability, integrity, civic consciousness, and unsellish interest in the cause of education. All members of the present board are professionally trained. As parents they have had a day-by-day contact with the schools they supervise. Serving for the past year as chairman of the board of which he has been a member four years is Henry E. Fournier. Mr. Fournier attended Sacred Heart and St. Joseph's Colleges in Quebec and St. Mary's Seminary in Baltimore. His student-army training in 1918 was at Holy Cross. For five years Mr. Fournier was employed by a gold-mining company in Alaska, as underground surveyor and electrical worker. From 1923-1930 he was in Chile, employed by a copper company as electrical ofiice and field engineer. Next he was in Mexico for nine years as assistant division engineer for a large international power company. In' 1939 Mr. Fournier moved to Liver- more Falls, where he purchased a business. He has been active in community alfairs: chairman of the OPA rationing board for two yearsg member of the Maine Association of Master Plumbersg a director of the New Eng- land Hardware Dealers' Association, and president of the local Lions Club. Dr. Eastman received his B.S. degree from Antioch College, and his M.D. and C.M. from McGill University Medical School, Montreal. His interneship was at Central Maine General Hospital. In 1939 he moved here. In 1942 he entered the service with the 67th General Hospital Staff. He was Chief of Psychiatric Service for three years in England with the rank of Major in the Medical Corps. A member of the Maine Medical Association, the American Medical Association, and the American Psychiatric Association, Dr. Eastman is on the staffs of both the Central Maine General and the Franklin County Memorial Hospitals. Mr. Stevens graduated from Kents Hill School in 1928. He then attended Norwich University, graduating in 1932 with a B.S. degree in chemical engineering. He is employed by the International Paper Company as super- intendent of the Otis Groundwood Mill. Mr. Stevens has recently been elected chairman of the superintending school committee for this year, Left to right: Mr. Wesley Stevens, Mr. Henry Fournier, Dr. Charles Eastman PRINCIPAL CLYDE L.

It also decided to sell cards and stationery to L.F.H.S. students. Sixteen juniors volunteered to serve as salesmen of the cards and stationery in the various home rooms. As a result class funds became ample to cover future needs. Committees for the social were named and acted with energy in planning refreshments, decorations, and music for the dance program. The Junior Social proved to be a success, both financially and socially. Shmoos were the main decorations. These little creatures stumped many a teacher as to their identity and significance. Juniors are all looking for- ward to Junior Night, and Junior Prom, which are among the outstanding events of the year and a high-light in the memories of every class. The most gala event of the Junior year is the Prom. Much work is put into the decoration of the hall, all the work is worthwhile, however, when the Prom becomes a huge success and when everyone present has had a glorious evening. After Juniar Night and Prom the juniors may consider themselves well on their way to the glorified status of The Senior Class . Certainly the Junior Class is one of the four main rungs in the ladder of success at L.F.H.S.

After Norman Morin's nearly fatal auto accident, he was cheered dz honor- ed by many let- ters, gifts, and bedside visits dur- ing his long stay in the hospital. The series of bone grafts and transfusions that became necessary would have dis- couraged a less optimistic person than Norman. With him at the birthday party, were his mother and aunt fboth L. F. H. S. alum- naej. and a group of schoolmates, 14 of whom were blood donors, A fifteenth donor, Lawrence Letour- neau manned the camera and was responsible for this bit of photo- gi-aphy.

DISCUSSION EIGHTY-FIRST CONGRESS QU. S. History IVJ Harold: The Eighty First Congress is discussing an important program. It is true it is a congress that will spend a lot of money, but to be penny wise, pound foolish at this time is the worst thing the government can do. Marlene: Especially I believe the Federal Govern- ment should give financial aid to the states for education, so the poorer states may have better schools. Don: Because of the increase in the cost of living, it seems necessary to increase the amount allowed for social security payments. Ernest: President Truman's program may be ex- cellent, but it is expensive, and where is the money coming from? Russell: State and Federal aid to schools will pro- vide better future citizens and give therefore. a better government. We need better school facilities now. Lorraine: I think everyone should support the public housing program, in order to clear away our rural and city slums and to give adequate housing for all. Some of the E. R. P. millions might be spent at home to better effect perhaps. Muriel: Is President Truman's Social Security pro- gram really necessary? Most people have Blue Cross or other health insurance already, I am told. We should study all facts before making quick decisions. QU. S. History VIIJ Cecil: Social Security payments should be increased for many retired and unemployed persons. A family of three or four members cannot live on the small amounts now paid. Normand: If the age limit when security may be collected is lowered for Women it should also be lowered for men. Figures show that men die when younger than women. Richard: I believe we should increase old age pen- sions. Many men retiring at 65 still have chil- dren growing up. Some of these men want to do more work than they are allowed to do after retirement. Bernard: When the husband dies, a wife should, in my opinion, get social security regardless of how old she is, unless she has a job that is pay- ing a good wage. Betty: I think an increased amount of money should be paid only to those who are physically unable to work. Such people should have a home of their own and plenty of food, but should not be provided with luxuries. Norma: I hope larger security payments will not make American workers less industrious. It is not good to destroy the American spirit of enterprise. Suzanne: A great many people will not try to get work, if larger unemployed payments are certain. Edith: I think people who own or work on farms, both men and women, should be guaranteed the same security that is now given city workers. I know of old people who do not have enough to live on as the social security law now stands. LIBRARY SCENE Standing: Nancy Gay freturning a bookj, Suz- anne Fournier fat the stackl.

DISCUSSION: INDONESIA fWorld Historyl Don: An international court is necessary to settle swiftly arguments such as the one between the Dutch and Indonesia. Arthur: The Netherlands should be punished for its actions in Indonesia. Calvin: Countries with democratic government like Holland should help instead of attack a weak people like the Indonesians. Henry: Holland had just signed agreements to help certain countries against aggression. Such a country should not be an aggressor itself. David: A strong U. N. army could enforce U. N. laws against aggressors like Holland. Allan: A national army is not bad, if used only for self protection and policing its own area. The Dutch are clearly in the wrong. Bruce: The U. N. should take measures to control the armies of all countries that fight. Virginia: It is clear that it was the Dutch who broke the Renville Truce. Gloria: I don't think we should let the Dutch, or any other nation, get out of hand. Rita: It seems an international army is needed at once to keep peace between all countries. The U. N. at present is in the same position as the League pf Nations after World War 1. Lower Picture. Back Row tleft to rightjx Carl Goding, Thomas Judd, Dana Wade, Norman Paradis.

ECONOMICS CLASS: OPINIONS CONCERNING CONSUMER EDUCATION Carl: Our textbook Consumer Economics Prob- lems by Shelds and Wilson gave me good tips about purchasing furniture. Furniture should ge well-made with strong joints and a good nish. Norman: Yes, the wood should be good and, if the house is at all damp, a house owner should not purchase plywood. Thomas: In buying clothing one should study the labels and consider such points as how many dry cleanings it can take, how frequent press- ing is required, if it will wash, if it is color fast, if it will not shrink, and if the finish is perma- nent. Dana: In buying a kitchen range, be sure repair parts and service are available from your re- liable dealer. Theresa: You should consider the same things in buying a refrigerator and also plan the re- frigerator to be large enough for the needs of your family. Know the cost of operation and the rate of freezing. Madeline: In buying canned food study the labels carefully which tell such things as weight, quality, size of can, etc. Compare each can with similar products sold by other canners and stores. In purchasing meats, know your cuts, and remember good beef is red. Ann: I thought the advice that our book gave about buying clothing was especially good. It told how to tell the difference between wool, linen, silk, and rayon. We were told to study tags and labels, to be sure material is preshrunk. I think such advice, if followed, can save the purchaser much money.

The Calendar SEPTEMBER The day of A' daze had arrived- September 6, 1948. In a split second classrooms were crowded. Corridors were jam-packed as the passing bell clanged. The freshmen did all the traditional things, losing themselves in the laby1'inth of corridors. They looked a promising lot of raw mate- rial as they were dumped into the class room hoppers, but, it must be admit- ted, they are still in the making. Every frosh will certainly remember Initiation Day and taking a bow to the all-wise 'A 49'ers . A Student Council took shape in the early days of the gold rush. The H Club wheel began to spin again, the main spokes being Drama and Commercial Clubs, F.H.A. and F.F.A. The band and orchestra strummed in another year for L.F.H.S., and the football grid- sters kicked of to a hopeful season. OCTOBER Horrors upon horrors! First ranks were doled out by a merciful HJ faculty on that fateful Thursday. Ouch! It still hurts! At the Senior Social the freshmen took a bow. Later shmoos and shmees gathered at the Junior Social. Sophomores step- ped up a rung and got out of the amateur class when they were ringed in. Teachers' Convention with two free days ffor studentsJ topped off a glorious autumn. NOVEMBER Congratulations to our two 4-H'ers. They were two of the sixteen Maine students chosen for state honors and the Chicago trip. F.H.A. girls en- joyed a gala Weiner roast at North Livermore in mild autumn weather. Pulmotor methods revived the old Dewey Decimal System and the library really began to function with a hospital corps of faculty teachers- in-charge and trained student librari- ans. The Sophomore Social revealed good orchestral ability. F.F.A. spread its feathers for a poultry judging contest at Portland fwhere it picked up second honorsl. Four local pigskin heroes made Class B State teams. F.H.A. girls cooked up a tasty dinner for hungry farmer boys at the annual F.F.A. Father and Son Banquet. Parents checked up on their anxious offspring at Open House night classes. The Jay game proved a thriller-diller and the Victory Parade was really a splurge, Banquets galore for both Jay and L.F.H.S. teams ended the month. DECEMBER Basketball started off with high hopes and close scores. Second period ranks. Christmas oarties all over the place -Dramatic Club, F.H.A. Social, Commercial Club Christmas Tree!

The Calendar JAN UARY Our 1948-9 winter must have gone to California. Deer left no tracks for student huntsmen. On January 12 students played softball in sweater sleeves during lunch hour in a setting of green grass and balmy breezes. F.F.A. boys went A.C.-D.C. on a Lewiston field trip. Basketball was still in high gear, two games a Week usually. Copywriters, layout crew, business staff, photographers wracked their brains for bigger and better Banner ideas, FEBRUARY The school play brought enthusiasm from townspeople. Our congratula- tions to the cast. They all acted the parts of the play very well. This month a Banner ad trip was taken to Lewiston where quite a few ads were received as new advertisers became in- terested in the 1949 Banner. By this time the basketball tournament was well underway. On February 10th a buffet supper was enjoyed by the teachers of Union 130. The supper was served by F.H.A. girls. The month ended with a bang for stu- dents because of County Teachers' Convention-a day off! MAY '48 Social events marked this hectic month. Junior Night in a downpour of rain! A record audience, however, enjoyed the amusing program and the glittering decorations. Junior Prom, rain again! A good crowd enjoyed smooth music, festive gowns, and fabulous decorations. Upon the Coro- nation Dance the weatherman smiled, but frowned the following day. Drenched iioats, sopping band mem- bers, and wringing wet student para- ders marked the Parade. The base- ball season could not beat the weather jinx either. JUNE '48 The month of roses and graduation saw the seniors rehearsing marching for Baccalaureate, Class Day, and Commencement. Gowns of garnet with white cap and tassels were dis- tinctive. Seniors were honored guests of the Aumni Association at a Banquet and Commencement Dance.

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is a new organization in our school and was organized by Principal Clyde L. Mann on September 30, 1948. The purposes of the council are to discuss matters concerning school activities, grievances or problems that students may like to talk over with the council, and approval of dates for school functions. The Student Council meets every two weeks and at other times when necessary. The Student Council will present an award to the outstanding senior boy and girl. The recipient will have to meet certain qualiiications ln order to xe- ceive this award which is to be presented at graduation time. The council also plans to publish a school handbook for tlaei school year 1949-50. This handbook will be given to all students and thereafter to members of the Fresh- man ass on y.

The officers of the L.F.H.S. chapter a1'e: President, Madeline Chicoine, Vice-President, Margaret Riggsg Secretary, Claire Wilkins, Treasurer, Leah Flaggg Historian, Gloria Jacquesg Parliamentarian, Betty Coatesg and Reporter, Valeria Walton. As a part of the program of home economics in the high school, the F. H. A. offers opportunity for the further development of pupil initiative in planning and carrying out activities related to homemaking. The club has had a weinie roast at Long Pondg its members served a banquet for the Future Farmers at Norland Grange, and en- joyed a Christmas party with the members exchanging gifts. The club also served a buffet lunch for the teachers in the Livermore Falls Teachers' Association. The motto of the F. H. A. Toward New Horizons, expresses the purpose of the organization- learning to live today in order that the lives of our families may be better tomorrow.

As Murray Hall had an unusually heavy schedule of activities, it was impossible for the play cast either to hold rehearsals there, or use much scenery or many heavy properties' con- sgquentlybghle productiofi this yeir lyvasl iieazgler te Eiza t an type pays in w ic t e au i- ence imagined the settings, or Thornton Wilders modern H Our Town with its improvise scenery, rather than the usual twentieth cen- tury drama. It seemed, however, that the theme of the play and the quality of the acting ap- pealed to the many loyal supporters of L. F. H. S. who comprised the audience. Ticket sales were under the direction of Mr. Whitney. Doris Ferland was in charge of advance sales. Constance Chandler and Theresa Judd were in charge of reservations. The play which was produced by permis- sion of The Dramatists Play Services of New York was directed by Miss Maher. Rehearsals were in progress six weeks. Many of the parts were long and difficult, but each individual player showed an admirable spirit of team work and each learned his role quickly and thoroughly thereby making possible pleasant, effective, and profitable rehearsals. Beverly Jones, student- director and prompter for three years, did ex- cellent work in every way, including much ar- ranging usually done by a competent stage manager. Following the play the cast had a gay party at the home of Jane Murray. To Miss Maher the cast gave an orchid and an album of records. To Beverly the cast gave candy.

The Dramatic Club The Dramatic Club has been holding its meetings during activity period every Friday morning this year in Miss Maher's room. Jane Murray presides as president, Meredith Monk is secretary and Jeanette Cloutier is treasurer. There are thirty-six members in the club. Although the purpose of the club is to promote interest in reading reviews of plays and notes about their authors, and in discussion of plays seen, read about, or heard on the air, in general the club aims to make more people interested in the history, the literature, the personalities of the theater, and in taking part in speech and theater activities. At one meeting it was voted to buy an album of records, The Merry Wives of Windsor . Since the album came during Ch1'istmas vacation, it was played at the first regular meeting in January. Every- one enjoyed it, and all thought it a good investment. Later, the Ramblers' Club asked to borrow the album. Three girls from the club, Beverly Jones, Suzanne Fournier, and Jane Murray, gave a description of the recorded scenes and played them at a March meeting of the Ramblers'. The Dramatic Club has little money in the treasury, but the members paid their dues ahead for a certain number of weeks, so that the album could be bought. It is hoped more albums can be purchased in the near future. Each member is chosen by the president to be in charge of the program for the following week. Short skits, humorous selections, albums of records, and monologues are presented by the members. A pleasant Christmas program was enjoyed by the club, at this meeting Miss Maher was presented a gift of Yardley products. On Visiting Night a radio program, The Sire de Maletroit's Door , by the famous writer, Robert Louis Stevenson, Was presented for the parents. Bernie Conant, Anita Buttarazzi, Hortense Collins, Gerard Dube, and Robert Pike, took the parts and fitted their roles perfectly. Suzanne Fournier was in charge of that play. At a February assembly, a poem U Without a Chance , in keeping with Lincoln's Birthday, was read by Nancy Gay. A skit called H Spring's Came , was put on by two younger members of the club, Sally Holmes and Mary Bailey. Another amusing skit entitled Physical Torture , featuring Virginia Dunham, Joanne Sturtevant, An- ita Cummings, and Rita Letourneau was given for club members. Norma Pike was in charge of the skit. Current plays and movies are also discussed frequently. A short time ago, a review of the play, A' Kiss Me, Kate Was read. This play, now a musical comedy playing on Broadway, is based on Shakespeare's H Taming of the Shrew. Among other current plays reviewed were Edward, My Son, Heaven on Earth, and Small Wonder , Girls from the club were ushers at the school play. Other members were on com- mittees, such as publicity, makeup, cos- tumes, and properties. Many members of the cast were Dramatic Club students. Everyone enjoys the club and all have a good time taking part in the programs. The Club listens to The Merry Wives of Windsor QGloria Jacques and Doris Fer- land operating the phonographj.

PUBLIC SPEAKER Dwight Lamb, Jr., began the season's speaking by competing in the Public Speak- ing Contest held in connection with the Southern District F.F.A. Field Day at Frye- burg, May 6, 1948. Because he placed highest in this contest, he was allowed to compete in the State Public Speaking Contest held at the U. of M. in June, when he was again successful in winning first place. He won a S100 cash award, as well as a trip to the Eastern States Exposition at Springfield, Mass. At Springfield, Dwight competed in the North Atlantic Regional F.F.A. Public Speaking Contest with state winners from eleven North Atlantic States. In this con- test he won third place. His speech, entitled Prevention and Con- trol of Farm Fires, was heard not only in these various contests, but also at the local F.F.A, Father and Son Banquet, at local Grange meetings, at various Extension Service meetings throughout the county, and was published in the Lewiston Sun.

THE BAND' .The Livermore Falls High School Band was organized in the fall of 1947 with twenty-five members. By spring the membership had increased to thirty-six, and a group of majorettes was being trained. . In the spring of '48 the band was on its way to the top when it captured top honors among class C schools in the Western Maine Music Festival at Brunswick. Under the guidance of its highly trained band instructor, Mr. Jesse Myers, the band has developed a repertoire of popular as Well as classic band music. The Band did its best from the very beginning and, by doing so, won the recognition of the townspeople and the local Lions Club. The Lions promptly went into action in a campaign to raise money to purchase uniforms. They were aided by various community organizations, the B. P. W. and American Legion, for example. Uniforms arrived on the morning of May 30, '48, and were worn for the first time that afternoon at the Memorial Day parade. This year the Band has grown in membership and it is planning various program activities to help raise money for more uniforms. The local American Legion which has already this year raised a sum of money for major- ette costumes is helping on the Band costumes also. The Band has consistently believed in a program of self- help but has been given invaluable aid by public spirited citizens and local organizations. Aside from the Music Festival, the Band has provided local entertainment for various clubs and organizations to show its appreciation for the support given the uniform campaign, VICTORY MARCH AFTER A GAME 44 Gold Dust on the Sierrus Back Row lleft to rightjz Robert Pike, Mary Bailey, William Myers, Gerard Dube, Phyllis DeBow, Blaine Sturtevant, Bernard Conant, Armand Bilodeau.

THE ORCHESTRA The orchestra has thirty-five musicians this year. Mr. Myers plans to mold the orchestra in the future in the symphonic tradition. By adding more violins, cellos, a string bass, a French horn and a mellophone he has con- tributed to a better balance of instruments. The orchestra was a spirited participant in the Western Maine Music Festival of '48 and furnished music for Graduation Exercises and Junior Night. The orchestra has been quite active the present season, furnishing music for .various assemblies. It is planning now a spring concert and the annual trip to the Western Maine Music Festival on May 14th.

Special books and material were secured for the group. The Boys' Glee Club furnished music for Educa- tion Week and the Christmas Assembly. The Girls' Glee Club has about fifty singers and meets each Friday for an hour's rehearsal. It has taken part in various assemblies thru- out the season and is busy at present practicing for the Spring Concert and Music Festival.

COMMERCIAL CLUB l At the first meeting of the Commercial Club the officers were elected. They are: President, H. Paul Holt Jr., Vice-president, Sadie Dysartg Secretary, Carolyn Bean, Treasurer, Laurette Laverdiere. In the fall the club added to its treasury by serving hot dogs, cold drinks, candy, and potato chips at the home football games. The two girls responsible for this work were Laurette Laverdiere and Celine Paradis who were also in charge of the sale of candy at lunch hour during the school year. Each year the club plans to work on a project. This year the members sold Christmas and everyday cards, stationery and other articles in order to earn money for a new Marchant Calculating Machine. Last year an A. B. Dick mimeograph machine was purchased. This equipment and new typing desks have modernized the com- mercial department greatly. New chairs and modern lighting facilities would make the typing room look more like a modern business office. The staff of the Andies' Bulletin has issued an edition of the school paper every month during the school year, just as another of the Commercial Club's activities. Club meetings are held every Friday morning. Following the business meeting a program committee, Joyce Liberty and Elaine McCai'fery, provides the club with a variety program. The Commercial Club is open to all junior and senior students taking the commercial course.

THE CHEERLEADERS This year our rooting squad acquired new uniforms, exchanging short green jumpers and sweaters for the new look, an outfit con- sisting of green pleated skirts and green blazer jackets with a green and white emblem in the right hand pocket position. Money for uniforms was earned by selling greeting cards and holding a public bridge party in December, The girls hold regular weekly practice ses- sions when they prepare new cheers for the games, and for the rallies which occur before important games. Due to Mrs. Brown's and Mr. Mann's kind- ness in furnishing transportation, the school cheerleaders have been able to attend all out- of-tovsm football games and all but one of the out-of-town basketball games.

There are five men in town, Fred Hebert, Pat Houlihan, Ingraham Morton, Dave Roy, and Eddie Muse, who have all worked in the mill fifty years. Grace-Really! Oh, June! Didn't your grandfather work here when the company was first started? June-No, he began work in the International Paper Co. in Fort Edward, N. Y., where he was night super- intendent, then, later, day superintendent. However, in 1911 he was transferred from Ticonderoga, N, Y. to Livermore Falls as manager of the Otis Division. Grace-While working in the mill office this spring I learned about a few of the changes in fifty years, from the older men. For instance in 1898 men worked eleven hours a day and thirteen hours a night for 19c per hour, today they work in three shifts, eight hours at a time, with a minimum of 31.15 an hour, Velma-Livermore Falls Trust Co. was organized July 27, 1895 with Alvin Record as the iirst president. Of all the businesses and industries in Livermore Falls, only two firms have been continuously in existence longer than the Livermore Falls Trust Co., and of all the banks in Maine, only five have been organized longer than this bank. Donna-Arthur Ham was the first graduate of L. F. H. S, As he was the only one to graduate in the class of 1898, he was assisted by the Junior Class. Exercises were held in the Baptist Church with Prof. Pike as the speaker. Professor James Pike was born November 2, 1862, in Norway, Me. He was left an orphan before he was ten years old and made his home with Mr. Joseph Hibbs of Hebron, Me. He attended school only one term a year until he was twenty-one and then he fitted himself for college at Hebron and was graduated with honors from Colby in 1896. He taught in Greenville, Canton, Buckiield, Boothbay Harbor, and Paris Hill Academy. When he came here he had nineteen pupils in school and only one from out of town. Mrs. Pike assisted him and she also taught in the grammar school. In 1906 Mr. Pike had three assistants and enrolled one hundred and four pupils and twenty-six were from out of town. June--Where was the Umbagog Pulp Company situated? Bill-The mill was located directly across the river from what is now the Livermore mill. June-Many older people in town remember that mill. Some present day citizens worked there. 52 And Now - 1948 Lyle-I'm trying to find out who was the oiiice manager of the Umbagog Paper Co. Do you by any chance, know, Bill? Bill-It was Daniel J. Bogan. His daughter is the well-known author, Louise Bogan, poet and critic on the New Yorker magazine. June-I remember her name. She was among the Maine authors mentioned on last year's graduation pro- gram, Grace-Was the Otis mill running at the time when Mr. Bogan was here? Bill-Yes, the Otis mill was built in 1888, but it wasn't until 1892 that Number One and Number Two paper machines were put in, Nancy-Don't forget the paper on our walls at home and in our friends' homes may be made in our own mill. Think of the distance that paper travels. It goes to the jobbers and then to the different companies. In the case of the Empireroto Grade, it is used in the printing of the magazine section of the New York Daily News and the Chicago Tribune . Even today it is on the counters at Herbie's, Waite's, and Parker's. It has cer- tainly come a long way. Lyle-I've unearthed some statistics that surprised me. At the present time, there are six machines in opera- tion, whereas there were previously ten. There are nine hundred twenty-five people, men and women, employed at the mill and the payroll is approximately 353,000 weekly. The railroads benefit by two million dollars per year in freight. The large paper machines cost 5165.00 per hour to operate and the operators are very skeptical about shutting down one of these machines even for a very short time. 53 THE STAFF Back Row istandingjz Romeo Langelier, Philip Lyman.

I THE 1949 BANNER This year the editorial staff decided to finance an edition of hard covers in addition to the usual soft cover typeof book. Samples were studied and an attractive design finally chosen. The decision to change to the con- ventional yearbook style, i.e. pictures on every page and a definite page lay-out of pictures plus copy material, seemed possible because greater advertising revenue justified the greater expense. l THE EDITORIAL BOARD Editor: H.

Miss Mary Hall was assisted as adviser of The Banner by Miss Mabelle Hunt, Miss Naomi Maher, and Mrs. Elizabeth Griffin. Mr. Clyde Mann gave great help in planning details concerning covers, binding, cover design, and engraving. Having a technical knowledge beyond that of any member of the staff, his suggestions were of great value. PRESS ASSOCIATION AWARDS The 1948 Banner earned second honors in the National Scholastic Press Association competitive contest. Its second place rating indicated a distance of only 60 points from first honorsg total points earned by The Banner were 1560. The Banner earned a third place from the Columbia Scholastic Press Associa- tion. Later the CSPA borrowed three plates used in the Fire article, and quoted excerpts from student accounts of the fire in a three- page article in the U School Press Review. The School Press Review is the oflicial organ of the Columbia University School Press Association, The Typists and Ad Letter Committee.

MELVIN FULLER IS AT EXTREME RIGHT. 4-H AT L. F. H. S. This school has many students in 4-H Club work. Although 4-H is not strictly a school or- ganization, so many L.F.H.S. students have par- ticipated in 4-H club work that the school can claim a great interest in the local 4-H. This year two of our 4-H students, Lorraine Pike '50 and Melvin Fuller '49, won state-wide recognition because they we1'e among the sixteen young people from the State of Maine who were chosen to at- tend the National 4-H Club Congress in Chicago. Melvin, who is a College Course student, was chosen as the outstanding 4-H member in the State of Maine. He is, incidentally, an associate editor of the '49 Banner, With the help of the county club agent, Melvin Kas leader of the A' Able Boys Club 5 has started three new clubs in this locality: the Beavers , the Merry Maids , and the Eager 4' Busy Ants . One of the clubs he formed, which promises to be outstanding, is the Eager Beavers Lboys' clubb of North Livermore fled by Dwight Lamb and Thomas Berryj. Dwight and Thomas were chosen recently to represent Androscoggin and Sagadahoc Counties at the State 4-H Tractor School in Orono. Melvin was prime mover in developing the 4-H window display at the Livermore Falls Clothing Store during National 4-H Club Week. He was a speaker at the Farm and Home Week at the University of Maine this year. Just as the Banner went to press, he received notice from Kenneth Lovejoy, State 4-H Club agent, that he had been singled out for another honor. Mr. Lovejoy wrote, Congratulations on winning the highest honor the Maine 4-H Organization offers -a trip to National 4-H Camp in Washington, D. C., June 15-22. FOUNDING THE HEAGER BEAVERSH AT SOUTH LIVERMORE Thomas Berry fseated at tablejg Dwight Lamb fstanding at extreme rightj. AT COUNTY 4-H MEETING Front Row: Melvin Fuller, fsecond leftj, Dwight Lamb, Norman Fuller, represent L. F. H. S. In his talk at Farm and Home Week, Melvin explained his work of the past year. With the help of the county agent, I have formed new clubs in the locality of Livermore Falls. I secured the leaders and lined up at least five members for each club. The work of these members inspired other young people in neighboring communities to join the clubs.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL The Andiettes of 1948-49 had their most successful season in three years, piling up a record of seven wins and three defeats. The locals were sparked by the shooting of forwards Nancy Gay, C. Rhodenizer, N. Lewis, D. Ferland, A. Mailman, C. Worthing, A. Buttarazzi, A. Cummings, and by the constant defensive work of guards Capt..C. Chandler, J. Houghton, P. Jacques, K. Nichols, R. Doiron, J, Burbank, and R. Nemi. K. Riley and J. Cloutier shared the duties of manager. The Andiettes' first opponent was a strong sextette from Mexico, that heldla decisive edge throughout the game. When the nnal whistle blew, the one-sided 28-13 score was in favor of Mexico. Another defeat was handed the home team by its old rival, Jay. The Jay girls piled up twenty-live points against the fifteen points of the locals. Much improved in the next game, the Green and White started its five-game winning streak with a victory over Hallowell. The girls from L.F.H.S. maintained an edge throughout the game, and when the game ended, held a 32-27 lead. In the following contest the girls from Leavitt Institute were outscored by a decisive 38-22 tally. All the squad members had a chance to display their ability in this game, and all the forwards scored. The upset of the season occurred when the L.F.H.S. sextette won over the undefeated Jay girls' team. The fine work of the guards and the accurate shooting of a pair of sophomore forwards, D. Ferland and A. Mailman, were the main factors in the 34-22 victory over our traditional rivals. The next two contests were won by L.F.H.S. In the first game, although the Hallowell girls outscored the Andiettesl in the early moments, the Andiettes made up the score deficit and added enough extra points to attain :iid 30-ii victory. In the second game the locals reached the scoring peak of three seasons, by taking a 50-19 win over eavi . After a rather poor display of basketball at the Madison game, our opponents leading throughout the entire contest,.the girls lost 21-11g however they returned to the home court to take their sixth victory of the season from Wilton by a 43-20 score. C. Rhodenizer was high scorer with 28 points. The Andiettes concluded the season by outscoring Mexico fprevious victors! by a 45-37 margin. This was a rather fast game. At the final whistle it was found that the total points were the highest of any of the season's games. For.the season C. Rhodenizer and D. Ferland, contributing 139 and 82 points respectively, led the scoring of the Andiettes. However, the accurate shooting of N. Gay and A. Mailman were very important and had much to do with the success of the season. Letters were awarded to C. Chandler, C. Rhodenizer, J. Houghton, N. Lewis, D. Ferland, P. Jacques, K. Nichols, N. Gay, A. Mailman, and K, Riley fmanagerl. 65 Armistice Day, 1948 CHEERLEADERS Top to Bottom: Lorraine Pike, Violet Poulin, Hortense Collins, Beverly Dunfey, Elise Mann, Betty Coates, Muriel Marcou.
