Jane A. Cunningham “Calamity Jane'' G. A. A. (4), 50 Point Award (4); Masque (3, 4); Solonscope (2, 3); Record Board (4). This tall, blond lass can be found most often with Roxy and Agnes .. . But she has many, many more friends . . . Her outside-of- school interests include horseback riding, skating, and tennis . . . Her nice voice and cherubic smile, which appears when something touches her sense of humor, make her fun to talk with . . . We hope that all your dreams for next year come true, Janie. Sheila A. Cutler “Private Secretary Future Homemakers of America (2. 3, 4), Historian (2); Freshman Chorus (1), Girls’ Glee Club (2, 3); Pro-Merito (3); Solonscope (4); Record Board (4); Style Show (1). We have every reason to be sure that Sheila will some day be the most successful secretary ever... Such efficiency and energy! And how we envy her naturally curly hair! . . . She’s nice to have around and be around —’cause because she’s just naturally friendly and helpful... It must be nice to have your middle initial appear so frequently on your report card! Norman S. D’Arthenay, Jr. “I Won't Dance Football Varsity (2, 3, 4), Letter (2, 3, 4); Basketball J. V. (1. 2), Var- sity (3, 4), Letter (3. 4); Baseball J.V. (1), Letter (1); Class Presi- dent (3); Senior Class Marshall (3); Silver “M (3); Solonscope (3); Boys State (3), Boys Nation (3). Presenting our poet laureate of 1959 ... Robert Frost would prick up his ears, but we just sit back in amazement and enjoy Spike’s marvelous blending of words . . . Talent and Spike are syn- onymous to us... A many-sided individual, he always seems in command of a conversation, be it light, witty, or intellectual. Gary A. DeCoteau “Most Happy Fella Football J. V. (2), Varsity (4), Letter (4); Track Manager (1). The big question is—Will his car stay intact until that golden day when he brings home his first deer? . . . We’re rooting for you, Gary! . . . Another stalwart on our football team . . . This fellow lends that surprising little quirk to every event . .. We never know whether he’s chuckling at himself or at us . . . His friendly wave, his attitude, and his zeal are what we like most about him.

Frank B. Clark “Wonderful Feeling” Football J. V. (1, 2); Basketball J. V. (1, 2); Baseball (1); Class Vice-President (3); Solonscope (3, 4): Business Manager (4). Did you say there was something to be done? Well, Frank, our snappy Solonscope business manager will be right there . . . We think he’s the best seller-of-Solonscopes-in-the-lobby ever . .. Going hunt- ing or working on his car seems to keep him out of mischief during any spare time he may have . . . Just coax him into conversation sometime—we think you’ll agree with us that Frank’s a great guy. We hear that the armed service is his next stop. Best of luck to you, Frank. “While We’re Young” Solonscope (4); Teenage Book Club Chairman (2); Record Board (4); Style Show (1); Future Homemakers of America (3, 4); Fresh- man Chorus (1), Girls’ Glee Club (2, 3). Linda holds the coveted title of “Shortest Member of the Class of ’59” . . . Quiet and conservative, she can be lots of fun when there’s fun to be had . . . Another of the illustrious East Montpelier- ites of ’59 . . . Making friends and keeping them seems to be one of her specialties ... We predict that her studying and hard work will pay off with a top-notch office position . . . Much success and keep your chin up, Linda. Charles L. Collins “Charlie, My Boy” Football J. V. (2), Varsity (3, 4), Leter (4); Track J. V. (2). “Hi!” or “How about that?” readily identify this versatile sen- ior . . . Another hard-working member of the ’59 football squad, Charley’s concentration and hard work seem to have paid off well; and we’ll be following his career at Champlain College next fall . . . That sense of humor and frequent chuckle are all part of the pic- ture, too. Jean E. Conkling “Jcanie with Dark Brown Hair” G. A. A. (1, 2, 3), 50 Point Award (2), 100 Point Award (3); Masque (1, 2, 3. 4), Pin (3), Letter (4), Secretary (4), “She Stoops To Con- quer” (1), Evening with the Masque” (4); Freshman Chorus (1); Band (1. 2, 3, 4), Head Twirler (4); Pro-Merito (3); Office Staff (2, 3, 4); Silver “M” (3); Record Board (3, 4). Petite, pert, and bubbling with personality—that’s Jeanie . . . Who else could have planned and executed the twirlers’ formations and routines that we all enjoyed so much this year? . . . Joan has a knack for making any event fabulous . . . Generosity and friendliness are her trade-marks . .. We think that there couldn’t be a career better suited to her than nursing. Linda L. Clark

Roland E. Doucette “Shine on My Shoes” Where? Oh, yes-—behind the wheel of that chic 59 Ford is Buddy . . . However, you may not be able to see him v ery well be- cause his car is always filled to capacity with his many friends . . . This guy, who enjoys himself on all occasions, seems to be at the right place at the right time all the time . . . And for all of you-all who have still to bag that elusive deer, listen: Bud shot one standing plunk on his front porch. Ralph Drew, III “Ace in the Hole Football J. V. (1, 2), Varsity (3); Basketball J. V. (1); Baseball J. V. (1, 2). Uh, Uh—better not. . . Mischievous Ralph always manages to find something to occupy himself . . . Another lover of woods, fields, and streams ... We really can’t imagine him sitting still to catch a fish, though we could be mistaken, of course ... At any rate, be assured of his friendliness at all times and look for him where there’s lots of good fun and frolic. Charris K. Dudley “Footloose and Fancy Free G. A. A. (1, 2, 3, 4), Vice-President (4), 50 Point Award (2), 100 Point Award (3), 200 Point Award (4), 300 Point Award (4): Future Home- makers of America (4); Masque (3, 4), “John Brown’s Body” (4), “The Lottery” (4); Band (2, 3, 4), Letter (3); Record Board (2, 3, 4). While other people spend their weekends baby sitting, Doodles spends hers “dog sitting” for her house full of canines . . . Sports are her specialty, and more unquenchable enthusiasm we’ve never en- countered . . . Those eight miles between East Montpelier and Mont- pelier have never prevented her from joining her friends ... A bigger tease there never was, but a nicer gal to have around there never was, either. Richard W. Duprey “Home on the Range' Track J. V. (1). “Home on the Range” is certainly an apt theme for Dick be- cause if you ever see a wide-brimmed cowboy hat sailing past, you will know that Dick is probably underneath it . . . What he lacks in height he makes up for in almost every other way . . . He’s quite a hunter and fisherman . . . He isn’t exactly the garrulous type, but then “silence is golden” when you’re stalking game.
