At New York City we find that Allen Beaupre, who was once the quiet boy in the class, now is assistant producer of the show in Radio City Music Hall. After he graduated he went there and acquired a job as an usher. When he was thirty he had graduated to stage manager. Then later Allen became assistant producer. We can see that Allen will be top producer any day now. After Lois Russell graduated from Milton High, she decided to become a waitress in a prominent Brattleboro hotel. It was here that she married her high school sweetheart. He was a very good chef so they decided to start a hotel of their own. Lois and Ray have come home every year for the Alumni Banquet. At the last Banquet, Lois said that she and her husband ex- pect to build a branch hotel soon. Since Milton has grown in size, they intend to build one here and return to their home town to live. We found Shirley Breault in Cuba. You see, she travels a lot since she married that certain sailor. When he receives his discharge they will build a new home in South Hero. They will also have full interest in Breau1t's Beacon Market. After Bernard King graduated from Milton High he entered the United States Air Force. He served three years, then when he received his honorable discharge, he started work for General Electric. He now has a wonderful wife, who originally came from South Hero. He and his wife are residing in Milton. Bernard isn,t the noisy, carefree boy he was in high school nowg he has settled into a quiet home-loving husband. We find Irma Lombard has been in Chicago working for a large law firm. Irma went to Al- bany Business College after graduating from Milton High. She liked her work very much and planned to make a life career of it, but she changed her mind and now resides in Milton with her charming family. 5 uuunInnInI1nnmnnnnnmmmu nlnuluununig nunIIImmmmumnmmm llumummmmu11nu u in un nu umnnnnmmm. We find that Paul Dingler joined the Marines after he got out of school. He enrolled in the police squadron. He is now out of the Marines and is one of the outstanding detectives in New York City. Recently he cracked a large crime syndicate, something no one has been able to do for some time. We see Judith Davis went to college to study to become a good secretary. After she got out of college, she became the indispensible private secretary for a well-known politician in Wash- ington, D. C. She takes trips all over the country and often makes speeches at S300-a plate ban- quets. We see Iean Gabree in Hollywood after she graduated from high school. After she arrived in Hollywood she got bit parts in a movie. She has now made a few very good musicals. She can currently be seen in her latest film, Life With My Husbandsf' After Connie jackson graduated, she organ- ized a 4-H club with which she had great suc- cess. Her club soon rated highest in the state. After a few years that same friend who furnished transportation to the members of the Senior Play became Connie's permanent chauffeur. We see that Doris LeClaire became a very efficient secretary in an insurance company. After working there a few years, she accepted a permanent position as a homemaker on a nice little farm in Georgia, Vermont. She also keeps her husband's books for him. We find that after graduating from Milton High School, Roger Gonyeaa entered the army and after serving twelve years, he received an honorable discharge. Then he went into farm- ing. When he was approaching thirty years old he became engaged to a Burlington girl, whom he knew when he was in high school. We see that last week they were married.

Blue and Gold 5 Student Council. Miss Kellogg was our class sponsor. As we wheeled along we found there were many rugged stones and rough places in our way, like laboratory experiments, sociology, and American Literature, but we managed. At the beginning of our junior year, early in September, we all received our class rings. The Hallowe'en Carnival was again held in October, we had the Salt and Peppern wheel and the Baseball Throw . In November, many of us took part in the annual Minstrel Show. The Juniors taking part in it were: Betty Bushey, Shirley Breault, Judith Davis, Doris LeClaire, Mary Beaupre, and Charlotte Bluto. On October 26, the Juniors presented a one- act play, None So Blindv directed by Miss Kel- logg. The characters were Betty Bushey, Shirley Breault, Judith Davis, Doris LeClaire, Allen Beaupre, Bernard King, Leo Pidgeon, Robert Limoge and Paul Dingler. Judith Davis and Constance Jackson attend- ed Girls, State. Paul Dingler and Leo Pidgeon attended Boys, State. Bernard King was chosen by the seniors for Class Marshal. Basketball started in November. From the Ju11ior Class of Girls, there were Doris LeClaire and Shirley Johnson on the team. Boys were Bernard King, Allen Beaupre, Robert Limoge, Douglas King and Leo Pidgeon. Shirley Johnson and Douglas King were on the All-Tournament Team. Both boys and girls won the class tourn- ament. The last of April baseball started. Leo Pid- geon, Robert Limoge, Allen Beaupre and Bern- ard King were players. In May, We had the Music Festival. Betty Bushey and Judith Davis were in All State Band. Florence Phillips, Mary Beaupre, Lois Russell and Leo Pidgeon were in All-State Chorus. And at last we reached the roadis end, and we came to a beautiful mountain. It was awe-in- spiring, and we stood gazing upward at it en- tranced with its beauty and possibilities, wonder- ing what it was. Definitely and ultimately, we had come to the end of Juniorland. SKYLINE DRIVE Just as in a dream, we found ourselves on the top of this wonderful mountain, On The Skyline Drive, Seniorland. We were at the top of our high school journey. An exalted position, I'l1 assure you. The officers chosen for the year were: President, Judith Davis, Vice-President, Leo Pidgeon, Secretary, Doris LeClaire, Treasur- er, Shirley Johnson. The two members chosen to represent the student council were Connie Jackson and Maurice Roussin. While we spent nine months in this high at- mosphere on the mountain, we won many honors. Here are the activities of the year: We started off by selling magazines. Profits were 8318.26 Irma Lombard sold the greatest number. On October 8, we had a Senior hop with Al Cole's orchestra for music. At the Hallowe'en Carni- val, we took care of the cider mill and the paddle wheel. Next came the Senior Play, Spring F every on October 24. Those taking part were Betty Bushey, Florence Phillips, Constance Jack- son, Judith Davis, Shirley Breault, Doris Le- Claire, Leo Pidgeon, Allen Beaupre, Bernard King, Paul Dingler, Maurice Roussin and Robert Limoge. We all had various parts in the Minstrel Show which was held November 20 and 21 and the Christmas Pageant held December 19. Then came the long awaited New York Trip. We left at 5:30 a.m. on April 6, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Morris, Mr. and Mrs. Mayville, Mr. Patton, Miss Meyers, Miss Kennedy, and Miss Stanley. We also took Bernard Smith as our class marshal. We all had a wonderful time. In May, Betty Bushey was chosen for All- State Orchestra, Judith Davis and Jean Cabree All-State Band, and Leo Pidgeon and Florence for All-State Chorus. Now, we come to the final week of our Sky- line Drive. What lies beyond depends on each and everyone of us. Donrs LECLAIRE JUNE HAYES SHIRLEY JoHNsoN JOYCE SCRIHNER

Blue and Gold 7 We find that Joyce Scribner went to New York City and took a job as maid at the Hotel Picca- dilly. After meeting her high school boyfriend, Jim, who was a bellhop at the hotel, she decided to marry. They have been married for about twelve years and are both employed at the Hotel Piccadilly. After Charlotte Bluto graduated from High School, she attended Business College. She was such a remarkable student that she was soon of- fered a teaching position there. She accepted it, but after a few years farm life in Colchester seemed much more alluring. When June Hayes was in high school, she thought she wanted to be a telephone operator, but a life of travel was more enticing. She join- ed the Women's Air Force and enjoyed it so much that she has made it a career and is now stationed in the South Seas at Pago Pago. After Florence Phillips graduated, Florence entered nurses' training. She put in many hard years of study and experience, and finally, was rewarded by making a great name for herself in this Held. She spent some years as a Navy nurse, but has recently decided that one sailor needs her undivided attention. After Leo Piclgeon graduated from high school, he entered the Army. He served his four years and then decided to settle down. After arriving in Milton, he found his girl hadn't waited for him. He now is a wealthy bachelor in Grand isle, since he has a monopoly on all the apple or- chards in the county. WVhen Robert Limoge graduated, he went to work for his father, but this didn't work out so well since Bob was supposed to be working in Georgia, but was spending most of his time in Milton. This was soon settled because Uncle Sam put Bob to work for a while. After spend- ing a few years in the service, he got out and bought himself a farm. He married his high school sweetheart and spent the rest of his days happily listening to the cows and the saxophone. When Maurice Roussin graduated, he headed back to New York after being so impressed by the city on the class trip. Maurice went to a Mechanical Engineering School for two years, and then Uncle Sam needed his service for a while. After returning from the service, Maurice took up where he had left off in his studies. He later passed the course with high honors. Now he has become one of the world's leading mech- anical engineers. At first, Betty Bushey thought she would go on to college and make herself one of the lead- ing women of the state but little persuasion from a farmer boy changed her mind. For a few years, Betty played saxophone in one of the lead- ing orchestras in the state. Now Betty, who always wanted to have many farm animals, has realized her heart's desire. After graduation from high school, Shirley johnson joined a famous girls, basketball team and toured the United States and the rest of the world. A few years later, Shirley came to be known as one of the great women athletes. After quite a bit of roaming around, Shirley finally settled down and married a 1952 graduate of Milton High. JEAN C.
