EDWARD JOSEPH HICKEY, Jr. With affection beaming in one eye, and calculation out of the other Here is five feet, nine and one half inches of pure energy! Never have we witnessed more vibrations than when Eddie makes one of mite. Furthermore, it holds true that his pen and pencil are just as sharp as a sword, and anything on paper by Eddie is very potent. When Ed transferred from Bradley, he had to wait six months before he could even go out for basketball. However, the sacrifice was worth it, for once he joined the team he played well enough to compensate for the delay.

PETER STANLEY JURANTY, Jr. One of the greatest failings of mankind is the inability to stay quiet. If there is something going on, and 'round about you spy a hopped up pick-up, color green with red trim, you instinctively know that our classmate Pete is here. Pete is a 'bug' on chemistry and mathematics, so consequently he is many times asked to help out a fellow student in need. And, being Peter, he always lends a helping hand. Peter's willingness to help and participate in anything for the class is typified in the way he has thrown himself into soliciting patrons for the yearbook. Reliable, willing, and co-operative, Pete is sure to find himself on the road to fulfilling his ambitions in his future undertakings.

A shy, quiet classmate is Nancy, but an industrious worker just the same. To an on-looker, Nan appears to be quite silent most of the time, but to her fellow students, Nan is one of the most lively people we know. She has a strong personality, speaking only when spoken to, or when she has something worth-while to contribute to the conversation-a characteristic that very few people possess. Nan is very fond of sports, and placed second with her partner in badminton doubles, showing her aptitude for that particular sport. With her keen ability to work well with other people, and her will- ingness to learn something new, we are sure Nan will become a No. 1 success in whatever she chooses to do.

LAURA ALICE GRONDIN Only the aggressive person reaches his goal! Humorous, mischievous, full of deviltry, and a lively personality with a perpetual funny story or joke are but a few of the words that describe our classmate Laura. A memorable figure in class activities, anyone looking for her is apt to find her where a story-telling session is under way. Here is a person willing to contribute readily toward the humor of others, even at her own expense. Laura can take a joke as well as perform one--much to the delight of her friends. Her past years at the Academy have created an impression all their own on all who have come in contact with this outstanding member of the Class of '58. We trust her future will be bright and full of fun and laughter.

Bob is one of the most athletically minded members of our class. He started out by first becoming a manager, then he became a player and has ever since been a permanent fixture of the team , be it base- ball or basketball. Of course we have all heard the expression 'looks are deceiving,' and this is quite true with Bob. From the exterior he strikes you as being quiet and unassuming, but he can tell you all the major points of any one of the Big League Baseball players--which is really quite a feat. We are sure that with his interest in sports, and the eamestness with which he goes about his tasks, Robert will be a huge success in what- ever he undertakes.

Here in Jerry, we have that tall, dark and handsome element that every class simply must have! An import from Manchester, this fellow gained friends practically with the snap of a finger, which is no surprise, for he has proven himself to be a very valuable asset. We're proud to claim him as one of our own. Never will we forget those cold stormy winter momings when Jerry drove his famous little green jeep over the curb and right up the front walk in order to avoid walking the distance from the parking lot to the door! This boy never ceases to amaze us! Here's hoping the future will be just a series of wonderful experiences for him. Bishop Bradley 1,23 Manchester Central 3, assembly 4, prom 4.

JANIS KITTREDGE A witty woman is a treasure, a witty beauty is a power. An inquisitive, imaginative, sparkling conversationalist, Janis pos- sesses an infectious giggle and that rare quality of being frank, yet tactful. Her individuality and radical questions and answers in classes cause many interesting controversies to liven up the routine discussions. As one of the best cheerleaders to ever spark Pembroke's cheering squad, Janis' inspiring yells have helped to prompt many a Spartan game on to victory. This petite, cheerful, bundle of energy has all the qualifications that will guarantee success in whatever she may choose to do. We wish her the best in traveling life's road, and hope she has many more of those happy and carefree summers in Maine.

DAVID HENRY IAROCHE Casually, I walk the path of life No one will ever forget the hilarious role Dave played in our Senior Assembly, it went over as a huge success. But then, that is only typi- cal of Dave. Always willing to help--as long as the other fellows are also! Dave's interests are primarily hot-rods and cowboys, and he knows enough about both to make him an authority. For instance, any fel- low hot-rodder interested in raising cams automatically or installing duel pipes on his car should ask Dave to help. Also, if you'd like to know how many men Marshal Dillon shot down, simply ask Dave. We prophesy that, with his humor and ability to work well with others for a common goal, David will succeed in most anything he tums his hand to. 5, :ti Shop display 1,2, assembly 4, prom 3,4. fir?
