FRESHMAN CLASS NEWS The Freshman Class started out the year with ten members, but we now have nine. At our first class meeting, we chose as class officers: Eunice Mitchell, President, Carl Maxwell, Vice President, Jane Gibson, Secretary, Ila Mitchell, Treasurer, and Priscilla Cheney and Carl Maxwell as representatives to the Student Council. On September 30 the Sophomores initiated us, much to the enjoyment of the upper classmen. For Hallowe'en, the freshmen put on an original skit, which was well received. Instead of giving a play at Christmas, we made and sold Christmas wreaths and sprays. . We entered a play in the one-act play contest. Our first year at Mclndoes Academy has been very successful. jane Gibson Secretary 22

Our leader, Mrs. LaBlanc, is Working on the idea of having a spring concert of our own. The Glee Club will appear in the graduation exercises as always. We are all very happy to add, that this year we have three seniors, Camille Sicard, Donna Goss, and John Gilmour, who will attend the Vermont All-State in Burlington, Vermont.
