CARLETON ELLIS JEWETT Student Council Representative l, 2, Photography Club 2, Senior Play 4, Class Play 2, Traffic Squad 4, Lymen Advertising Manager 4. Ellis' face shifts rapidly from an anxious frown to an infectious grin, with emphasis on the grin. His years at Old Lyme have often given him cause for gravity and he uses laughter as an antidote. A natural ham he created the role of a gay adventurer in the senior play. His humor and tenacity came in handy while he was searching for yearbook ads. He is all mirth. - Shakespeare BARRY ESTILL GUITAR Lyme Light 'l, 2, Class Play 2, Basketball 2, Soccer 3, 4, Baseball 3, 4. During his four high school years Barry has con- tinually dashed around on or off the athletic field - usually after a misplayed ball, misplaced homework or forgotten errands. He is typified by his cheerful willingness to take on anything within running or driving distance. Unfortunate- ly, the true derivation of his nickname Beasley has been lost in the ages. He quickens into deeds. - Whittier

MARTHA ELLA DEAN Chorus 2, 3, 4, Lyme Light 2, Class Play 2, Lymen 4. Martha lost her spare time forever when she let it be known that she was o good typist. The indispensable skill of hitting typewriter keys quickly and accurately is in such demand in Old Lyme that Martha is buried in papers to copy. She takes her internment with good humor, however, and she is usually ready for more. ln her tongue is the law of kindness - Proverbs MARY MARGUERITE CRAIG Lyme Light 'l, 4, Senior Play 4, Lymen Literary Editor 4. Among the many talented members of the Class of 1959 we are fortunate to have in Mickey an author. Being extremely well read and possess- ing a unique wit, Mickey has delighted us with amusing stories and essays. In her junior year she received honorable mention for her essay, Much Ado about a Supper in the National Scholastic Writing contest. Comparatively quiet, Mickey is one of the most dependable and clever members of our class. Solitude is as needful to the imagination as society is wholesome for the character. - Dryden

KARL JAMES JONASON Class President 2, Soccer 'l, 2, Track 2, 3, Bas- ketball 2, Baseball 4, Class Play 4. Jim stepped into a whirlwind when his family moved from Huntington, Long Island, to Ham- burg last summer. He brought with him a record as class president and a member of his soccer and track team. He was no stranger to the area, however, for Lyme is his former summer home. He has managed to hold his own with a sem- blance of coolness and calm. In the senior play he appeared behind footlights for the first time as a retired detective. Good health and good sense are two of life's greatest blessings. - Syrus JOHN MICHAEL MATHER Soccer lp Basketball l, 2, Baseball l, 2, Photog- raphy Club 2, Lyme Light 2, Class Play 2. John is held down by class activities, homework and a time-consuming after-school iob. From time to time he emerges from these responsibili- ties to catch his breath and follow a hobby - photography. Diligence is the mother of good fortune. - Cervantes
