Priscilla R. Maxham “Cilia” F. H. A. (4), Reporter (4); Freshman Chorus (1), Girls’ Glee Club (2, 3, 4), Mixed Chorus (2, 3, 4), Pendant (4); All-State Chorus (4); Smoky Mountain” (4); Office Staff (1). Who could ask for a harder worker and a more con- scientious student than Priscilla is? Among many other things, Cilia finds time to attend youth fellowship meetings and conventions and, also, “to sew a fine seam.” Certainly she’ll never be cold with “all that mink” around her! F. James Nuissl “Jim” You can hear Jim coming a mile away! When we hear his heels clicking down the corridors, we look up expectantly to find out the latest news. Although an ardent sportsman and one of the few ’57ers who know how to run a farm, Jim always finds time to stop and chat with us. Wherever he’s going and whoever he’s with, he is the same likable and at- tractive fellow. Keep us posted after graduation, Jim. ((T Jeanme G. A. A. (1, 2); Class Secretary (2); Pro-Merito (4); Solonscope (2, 3, 4), Assistant Business Manager (3); Record Board (4); Junior Prom Music Committee Chairman (3). One of the very few des eleves francaise de la troisieme classe, Jean gets her studying done and still finds time to cruise about town in her blue convertible. A thoughtful and unselfish person, she has been a great asset to the class of ’57. If you wish to know more about Jeannie, ask Dick— “who dreams of Jeannie with the light brown hair.” William A. Parker Ticket Squad (4). Here he—whoops! There he goes—. If you ever see a two-toned green Chevy full of girls go by you three times, you may be certain it’s Bill. A friend to everyone, Bill is a sports fan and a ladies’ man. Besides that entrancing smile, he wears mighty sporty clothes!

“Jack” John C. LeBourveau Football J. V. (1, 3); Baseball J. V. (1); Track J. V. (3); Freshman Chorus (1). Never a minute to spare for Jack works after school, drives about in his black coupe, and entertains us at parties by strumming on his guitar. A very polite and cordial fellow, Jack has a pleasant hello for everyone. Need anything? Ask Jack; he’s a very generous fellow. Morris E. Leno Football J. V. (1, 2); Basketball (2); Pro-Merito (4). Hey, slow down, Morris! You’re talking so fast we can’t keep up with you. We’ll have to admit his enthusiasm cer- tainly is contagious. Usually we see him standing in the halls with his hands on his hips and his head slightly tilted as though he were listening in on the underground. His sincerity and good manners attract many friends. John E. Leonard “Johnnie” Happy-go-lucky John is another member of our class who hails from Calais. He transferred from Spaulding dur- ing his junior year and wasn’t long in making many friends. Tall, good-natured, and friendly, he is usually seen with a group of boys—and girls! Just ask Johnnie for a phone num- ber; he has them all. Whatever your plans are, John, we wish you the best of luck. Arlene I. Martin G. A. A. (1, 2, 3, 4), President (4). 50 Point Award (2), 100 Point Award (3), 200 Point Award (4); Debating Club (3); Librarian (3); Masque (2, 3, 4), “Curious Savage’' (4); Freshman Chorus (1); Band (1. 2, 3, 4), All-State Band (4); Orchestra (4); “Smoky Mountain” (4); Pro-Merito (4). A wonderful gal with a great love for MHS, Arlene is an ardent Masquer, a first clarinetist in band, and president of G. A. A. If you want anything done and done right, ask Arlene. Four years from now she hopes to be graduated as a physical education instructor. We understand she’s been getting in some practice this year. Good luck to you, Arlene.

Joan E. Pecor G.A.A. (1,2,3), 50 Point Award (2); Pro-Merito (4); Style Show (1). What Bart Jeffrey is to boys’ basketball, Joan is to girls’ basketball. Her athletic ability is the envy of the G. A. A. members. A responsible and dependable gal, Joan does, how- ever, love a good time; and when she gets that twinkle in her eye—Watch out! We aren’t quite sure what she plans for the future; but we know she’ll continue to take everything in her stride. Richard P. Perkins “Dick” Basketball Varsity (4), Letter (4); Baseball J. V. (1, 2), Varsity (3), Letter (1, 3); Masque (4), Pin (4), “Curious Savage” (4), Variety Show (4); Freshman Chorus (1), Boys’ Chorus (2, 3, 4), Mixed Chorus (2, 3, 4), Pendant (4), All-State Chorus (4), Smoky Moun- tain” (4); Pro-Merito (4); Office Staff (1, 2); Projectionist (1, 2); Silver “M” (4); Solonscope (1, 2, 3, 4); Ticket Squad (1, 2); Record Board (2, 3); Freshman Reception Committee Chairman (4); Boys State (3); Junior Prom Committee Chairman (3). When you utter the magic formula—song, piano, brains, humor, sports and sermons—who else could appear but Dick. His terrific sports column and realistic acting have made all of us take notice of this tall, blond fellow. Regardless of his varied interests, Dick has been attracted to the latest happenings in the Queen City. Capable of excelling in practically any field, Dick has chosen the field of medicine. Sally H, Pierce “Sal” G. A. A. (1, 2, 3), 50 Point Award (2), 100 Point Award (3), Treas- urer (3); Assembly Committee (3, 4), Chairmanship (4); Masque (1, 2, 3, 4), Pin (3), Letter (4), Secretary (4), “The Lottery” (2), “Little Dog Laughed” (2), “Dear Ruth” (3), “She Stoops to Conquer” (3) , “Curious Savage” (4); Freshman Chorus (1), Girls’ Glee Club (4) , Mixed Chorus (3, 4); All-State Chorus (4); Band (1, 2, 3); Pro- Merito (4); Office Staff (2); Silver “M” (4); Student Council (3, 4); Solonscope (2, 3), Assistant Editor (3); Record Board (X, 3, 4). Assistant Editor (3), Editor (4); Girls State (3). What would we have done without this energetic soul who has so admirably contributed to our class ? Our capable editor, superb actress and assembly organizer, Sally has pitched in to work strenuously and yet has had fun in every activity possible. Sal, you’ll have to try hard not to be successful and happy in the future. Katherine M. Pond “Katie” Ski Team Varsity (1, 2), Ski Club (1); G. A. A.

Katie holds three positions in the Senior Elections—no need to repeat them because just by glancing at her you can tell that she’s a mighty outstanding girl. In her calm and tactful manner Katie has very efficiently guided the Solon- scope and Student Council. Need we say anything else ? Oh, yes—she’s quite a linguist.
