Each year a new class enters the doors of Middlebury High School into a life of studies and activities, joys, and heartbreaks. Each student, during his days at Middlebury, becomes familiar with the various doors of the school and to him they symbolize something. The gym door, the locker room door, the office door, the different class room doors- -each would have a story to tell if it could speak. Finally, each class goes, through those some doors, into life. This Quatrain is the record of the main doors which have opened to each student during this year. TABLE OF CONTENTS .

To you, Mr. Eaton-- The class of 1956 feels it has the greatest claim to the privilege of dedicating our yearbook, for we are the last class to be under your guid- ance when you were principal. You welcomed us as freshmen and arous- ed in us then the deep affection we all feel for you now. We are all aware of the many decisions you have had to make since our school burned. You have showed us the many doors of opportunity that high school throws wide. You have helped us set our standards high. By your tact and warm understanding of each of us as an individual, you have' pointed out to us that it is not always the easy road which gets one the farthest in life. We have the utmost faith in you, Mr. Eaton. 3 RALPH A. EATON In Our Leader I Believing In 0ur Form Of Governmenf . . PRINCIPAL - Mr. Marshall Individual success in life today depends upon a person's willingness and ability to assume responsi- bility for his actions and those of the group he repre- ents. This ability comes more easily to some than tb, others - but to no one without practice. It has been gratifying to observe the increasing practice which is 'ng place at MHS and the greater responsibilities bei assumed by the students in their ?uest for de ocratic living. Freedom is our way o life. but as a Greek philosopher once said, no man is free who i not master of himself. X E 1 1 I' I 1 ? I T Omnipresent, and ready to our school board is the Lmiting force between community citizens, iistration, faculty and students of the high school. Elected by the people, people, to serve the people, its mem- bers labor to insure good standards by hiring instructors who fulfill the qualifications fellow community members demand. All the and problems of the school rest upon the shoulders of these individuals. How better can public spirit be indicated than by the long hours they are spending in effort to open the doors to a better education for Middlebury's citizens?

So much time and effort must go into this splendid aifair that a majority of the many committees have already been chosen and are hard at work under the guiding hands of co-chairmen, Lynn Stearns and Margaret Bishop. An awfully difficult part of putting on a Prom is deciding upon a theme. A clash of ideas can result in a heated battle which sometimes splits the class, but not for long. In carrying out the theme, everyone in the class has a chance to contribute time and talent. Well, anyway, it's always J Orvis, S. Owen, J. Oney, L. Maslack, S. Phelps, H. Moore, E. Perkins.

Like every other class, sopho- mores are busy thinking up ways to induce that folding green stuff to fill up the treasury faster, and then making those all-important decisions on how to portion it out to the right causes.

Doors swing wide and introduce awhdle new group to the high school world. Will you ever forget that first day? We got thoroughly confused by the unfamiliarity of all the new things to do--identification cards to fill out, subjects to decide upon, long list of books to buy--and then, homework. We managed to get totally mixed-up at times, for we had two buildings in which to lose ourselves. Freshmen have their home rooms in the former graded school building.

It is said around school that freshmen are most enthusiastic in showing class spirit, and this is am- ply displayed by the large turn out for both girls' and boys' sports. And when the Magazine Drive sales were totaled up, the freshmen had outdone themselves--overshooting their quo- ta by S7 5.

A wide variety of subjects, required and elec- tive, confronts us. It is wise, we learn, to fill up our schedule as much as possible the first two years so that as seniors, we won't have to stagger around under an over-loaded curriculum in order to graduate with the required number of credits. The class of 1959 appears to be very college- minded. Here is how the freshmen have chosen their coursesz.

All freshmen must take English and civics. College prep students add to that, algebra I, and most of them also elect Latin I and science. The commercial course offers general bus- iness. In this course, too, there is a choice of either science or home ec. Ag. and industrial arts follow the pattern of the business course with addition of their begin- ning courses in ag. I and shop I, respectively. With subjects like these, we hope to turn out to be a well-rounded group of citizens when we take up our roles in the community. 9 James Selleck, Richard Shepard, Susan Spaul- ding, Norma Smith, Margaret Sampson, Carolyn Silsby, Marjorie Stagg.

The Threshold Info High School Preparing for higher things--the junior high school, which includes the seventh and eighth grades, is a sort of Hbetwixt and between ' group. Not connected with the ele- mentary school system nor yet officially a part of the senior high, it carries on most of its affairs within its own group. Since the fire of l953, the junior high has been departmentalized like the senior high. With the completion of the new school--it is hoped by the fall of 1957--the junior high will be included in the Union District High School set-up. Because they are sharing the former graded school building with the high school, they are represented in this book. The activities of the high school have had an influence on the junior high: they are plan- ning to elect representatives to the Student Council, and buy activity tickets. They make contributions to the Tiger's Taleg they share our assembly entertainments, and they joined the high school in the Christmas concert. iv- QL 's .. i Brian Points out to Bonnie, Mike, and John the tiny island that a good many of our ancestors came from.

Faith Sholes Upon reaching its tenth birthday, the Quatrain is continuing to develop. The record of the school year, portraying the four high school grades fbut in many more lines than a quatrain versei, it is a tremendous improvement over the book of 1947. Know-how developed by one class is passed on to the next, so that nearly every year that Quatrain has entered national yearbook competition, it has come home wearing a blue ribbon. Since yearbook creation is streamlined to a scientific art, this is really an honor. An art, indeed. Rome wasn't built in a day and neither, certainly, was a yearbook. It takes as much as two semesters of planning, herculean effort, painstaking attention to detail, putting our heads together and coming up with creative ideas, brilliant and not so brilliant, before we finally a- chieve our goal. Nevertheless, after the rush of last-minute pasting and printing, comes the elation of seeing the finished product. If you should look into Mrs. Sholes' homeroom any Monday evening, you might see Mark merci- lessly cropping photos with the paper-cutter, Dick hunting up lost pictures, but managing to 'do his physics on the sly, Louise and Anne searching for inspiration, Ruth organizing an all-day shooting schedule fwith a camera. naturallyj, and Monica originating peppy posters and the superlatives page. Through the clank-clunk of Albert's printing press and the staccato taps of Anita's typewriter, you would find Rosalyn drawing doors, Louise and Aliette counting checks, and a gang of ad-posters organiz- ing the ad section under Linda's guidance. Special note should be given to Mark, who took over all the work on the boys' sports section after the appointed editor could not continue, and to Joyce Sampson who helped with the last-minute typing. But where would Quatrain be without Mrs. Sholes? Certainly not at press on time. With a pushing force and guiding hand, she has helped un- tangle the snags encountered in yearbook production for eight issues. ' By The M. H. S.

It's avicious circle--the copy wri- ters are forever struggling to keep two jumps ahead of the typists, who try not to let their written work pile up. Anita and Toni use the electric typewriter, and Louise and Anne see how much more they have to write. 2. Linda's ad-pasting crew, Regina, Martha, Jan, Elaine and Paula, must carefully measure each line of type before sticking it down. Is that glue getting solid, Elaine?

The hand, reorganized last year by Miss O'Brien, has gained new mem- bers because of opportunities for lessons on a wide variety of instruments. Playing at the Spring and Christmas concerts and the graded school's operetta were the major activities of last year. The Junior High group swelled our numbers and added to our volume by joining us in our an- nual concerts. Several girls took the initiative and formed small ensembles which gave very polished performances when concert time rolled around. Our Barbershop Quartette, which has entertained at many commxmity activities, developed from these groups. Carrying on Miss O'Brien's splendid work this year, Mrs. Merritt has kept up the high caliber of our musical activities. She has in- terested enough boys in forming a glee club, evening up the wide gap in number between boys and girls. The girls continuetoshow their usual high interest by turning out for music in large numbers. The All-State Group began early practicing of Faure's Requiem Mass, which has presented the formidable task of being sung in Latin--but we hope to be letter perfect by the time of the All-State Music Festival in May.

These F.F.A. boys certainly deserve a hand for a splendid climax to last years work. The Middlebury Chapter was awarded second highest place in the state contest last spring. They were competing against 26 other state groups. This is indeed an honor, especially in Vermont which is such a dairy-minded state. Certainly not resting on past laurels, the F.F.A., under the guidance of Mr. Dawson, M.H.S.'s new -- Clifford Heustis Vocational Agriculture teacher, is carrying through a heavy program this year. It includes playing in the district basketball competition which they have already won, a Winter Carnival with the other chap- ters in this district, an Addison County Field Day with 4-Hg a barbecue to which members' parents were invited, a horse shoe pitching contest, the con- structionof a sign for the Forestry Department, and the care of aforestarea at the Morgan Horse Farm. Every Thursday, as we pass the gym, we hear the band polishing up on their per- formances under Mr. Ox- ley'sleadership.

Sponsore by the Student Council, under Mr. Phlnney's direction, the 1955 drive earned even more money than last year. Among the things the money has been used for this year are: the purchase of a flag for the stage, paying for buses to basketba l games, buy ng pins for Student Council members, lnstalllng a public address system, buying mats for the gym, and uniforms for cheer leaders and providing assembly programs.

For several years Middlebury High School has held a Science Fair in the spring. Projects are entered by members of the general science, biology, chemistry, and physics classes. The student picks something in his subject which interests him and through weeks of hard work produces a scientific project which usually amazes the visiting adults with its intricacies and orig- inality. The judges use research, contribution, display and originality as bases for their choice of first, second and third places and honorable mention. First and sec- ond places in each division go to the State Science Fair to compete with winners from other Vermont schools. Last April at the State Fair, first place awards were won by Rosalyn Lipman with her exhibit on allo- tropic carbon, Dorothy Needham with her exhibit on Alcohol and its Effects and Jackie Duffany and Janet Stalker with a study and display of vertebrate skulls. We hope that we will be able to have this science fair every spring when we move into our new school too. What a formidible task Jan and Jackie carried through to Right in style--Jackie, Glenna, Joyce, a successful conclusion! Work and persistence paid off! Maggie and Chalis.

Leaving classrooms, books, and homework behind, we sought ad- venture in an enchanted world of bur- ied treasure, coral and exotic sea- weed. More attractions were a nine- armed octopus, most creative and colorfulmarine animals in aquarium pictures invented by the imaginative juniors, a regal sea-shell throne, and even a real cute mermaid, well almost real. The juniors worked like sea hor- ses on their most important project of the year. All our efforts were grandly repaid by the first-rate time everyone had.

In his last season at Mlddlebury, Coach D'Agostlno produced another fighting baseball team. Although the team lost their first game by a wlde margin, they had the sglrlt and fight to bounce back and wlnt e next one. The D'Agosttnonlans, led by such outstanding players as Ronny Oliver, Bob LaBerge Mike Donnelly George Adams, B1 liaurke, and melt Mme - ell, wound up the season with a five and ftve record. Graduation casualties included Ronny Oliver, Bob LaBerge, and Geo. Adams. Donnelly, a veteran chucker, will not be with us this year. There is stllla lot of good material left for a great ball team. Under the fine tutelage of Coach Bartlett we're con- fident that a roaring, fighting base- ball team wlll take to the diamond this spring. 51 -as jf -9+ ff.-1' , '- .gg-, ,.-, 4 : -rv P. . .. an 1515- ' Howie completes a double Whack that ball over the fence, Ronnie!

The team attended a sports day at Brandon and came out on top over all the other schools represented. The wins were over Rutland, Brandon, and the only loss was to Pittsford. Many of the girls were seeing their first action on an actual team. They came through with flying colors. These wins would never have been possible if there had not been the com- plete cooperation and sportsmanship showed by each and every team mem- ber. Though graduation took many of the first team members, it does not lessen the possibilities for a promising new season. Good luck to Coach Nutter and the team of 1956! Ill!

The season was marked by rain and mud almost every Saturday. The team lost its first game and bounced back to come within one point of beating Poultney, who became league champions. Bob Starling, an excellent lineman, was injured in this game and was out for the rest of the sea- son. After the Poultney game, the team could not find itself again until it played West Rutland, whom it beat resoundingly. Middlebury had a tiger's share of bad luck and injuries. On more than one occa- sion, the team's inability to take advantage of lucky breaks cost us the Y- ji 28 pf 29 51 Co-captains. Pratt and Gonzalez. game. The Tigers showed an improvement over last season by fighting all the way in a good share of their games. In some cases, however, the team needed just a little more of that will-to-win. With- out making excuses, we hope that next year'steam, with good weather, good ma- terial and the fine coaching of Mr. Bartlett, will have a bang-up season. 1.

Our next game at Ver ennes was lost by two points, but at our next encounter iiere at Middle- bury we routed Vergennes to win 70 to 47. We dropped our next one to Proctor by a big margin but bounced back to come within two points of beating Chester. The team also dropped games to Essex Junction and recently to Brandon in a thriller that we lost by six points. The varsity shows improvement over past teams, and we hope that they will continue to fight and make a success of the rest of the season. - Although they have lost most of their games, the junior varsity shows promise and determination with such players as Pat Broughton and Jim Brown in the erry , Ken N , Bill Burke, Eric Perkins, Hoot Bartlett, Amos Supernois, Bucky Rouse, Bob Broughton, Doug Cormier, Chi Hopper, Bruce Beck, Mgr.

At this time there 'are still some games to be played and we know that they will be victories.
