Calais Miitory In September, 195 2, 29 boys and girls entered the Freshman class of L.C.S. to begin their high school career. That year Mr. Keith was our class advisor; Ann Chavoustie, President; James West, Vice-Pres- ident; Carol Comins, Secretary; and Emelie Merchant, Treasurer. The first money that we earned for our class trip was by selling candy at the games and during our noon hours. We ended our year with a picnic at Cedar Point. In our Sophomore year, Mr. Grieco was our class advisor. Our class officers were James West, President; Yvonne Hamilton, Vice President; Rita Hewitt, Secretary Treasurer. Th9t year the class earned money by selling magazines. At the close of the year, we had a picnic at Cedar Point. When we returned to school in our Junior year, we elected Yvonne Ham- ilton, President; Fred Ross, Vice-President; Donna Mumford, Secretary and Emelie Merchant, Treasurer. That year Miss Southard was our class advisor. We had a very busy school term making money for cur Senior trip. The first project was selling stationery. All of the class took part in this activity, and it turned out to be a big suc- cess. Next came our Junior play, a 3-act comedy, Beauty and the Beef , with Mr. Graham Stone as our director. In June, we held our annual Junior Prom with the music of Harry Spicer and his orchestra. We ended this highly successful class year with a picnic with the Seniors at Cedar Point.
