Class Fistery There are many events that we recall as we look back through our four years of high school, events which evoke pleasant memories of our classmates. Even after we graduate we will probably remember many of the good times at Millis High School. Probably the first event we can remember was the day, September 8, 1948, that we entered our freshman year with 39 students. Our class was divided and Mr. Killelea and Miss McMahan became our homeroom teachers. After a few weeks of school we elected our class officers as follows: Betty Smith ................ President Edward Alger .... Vice-President Ward Belisle —.......... Secretary and Treasurer During the year we lost some of our classmates including Harold Doherty, James Winters, William Just, John Power, Jean Bowie, Nancy Bennett, and Doreen Harrison. The following September we returned to school as sophomores with a class of 32. Miss Fiola was our homeroom teacher. Our class officers for this year were: Edward Alger ............ President Betty Smith ... Vice-President Gerry Christian ...... Secretary Edward Roak ............ Treasurer During the course of the year we lost six students which included Edward Alger, Ward Belisle, Robert Wood, Sally Dawe, Sylvia Dawe, and Arline LaBounty. Also during this year we elected Gerry Christian as cheerleader from our class. As juniors we had an exciting year in store for us—for during this year we held a number of activities to raise money for our senior trip to Washington. Miss Sellers was our homeroom teacher and we are grateful for the help and time that she gave to our class. We elected our class officers as follows: Betty Smith 2 ......... President Edward Roak .... Vice-President Joan Thatcher ........... Secretary George Lipsett ....... Treasurer In October we ordered our class rings and received them before our Christmas vacation. Then in April we held a penny sale and finally in May we held our Junior Prom. Many of us probably remember the many times we got out of our classes to decorate; especially one which was Mr. Robbins’ U. S. History Class. Donald Sharpe and David Clark were chosen to represent the class at Boys State and Barbara Olson at Girls State. Also during this year we elected Gerry Christian and Nancy Brodeur as cheer- leaders from our class. Towards the end of the year we lost two more of our classmates: Jerome Brown and Barbara Olson. At the close of the year our class went on a picnic at Nantasket Beach. Probably most of us came home without any money, but we all had a wonderful time. The summer vacation seemed to fly by and we soon returned to school as seniors with Mrs. Barrett as our homeroom teacher. During the course of the year we con- tinued to raise money for our Washington trip which was the culmination of our four years of high school. We held a penny sale, two food sales, The Senior play “That Brew- ster Boy,’’ two record hops, one of which was a victory dance for the Millis Boys who fin- ished their successful football season by crashing Medway 33 - 0. In this year we elected our class officers as follows: Koh? IBlomaksye President George Lipsett .. Vice-President Betty? smithy a Secretary Barbara Bur dows ...... Treasurer Cheerleaders from our class for this year were Nancy Brodeur, Gerry Christian, and Betty Smith. During this year we elected Mrs. Barrett and Mr. Doyle as our class advisors. We appreciate the time that they have devoted towards helping our class. Finally on April 11 the long-awaited Senior Class Trip to Washington became a reality. We left at 10:30 p.m. from Millis and arrived in Washington the following Saturday morning. After four days of tour- ing Washington, we returned to Millis. We will always remember the Washington Trip as a great cultural success as well as social. Our chaperones were Miss Curivan and Mr. Mendoza. On Friday, April 18, we held our Easter Friday Dance, and then with the Junior Prom we had our Senior reception. The end of our class history is gradua- tion. From there many of us will go to college, others will go to work, and some may become part of our armed forces, but we will never forget our teachers who have guided us through our four years of high school. Memories of our classmates will always remain with us, and we will try to uphold our class motto, ‘Thoughtfulness is the essence of friendship; friendship is the essence of a happy life.” —Rebecca Washer thirteen
