At the beginning of the school year, election for Student Council officers was held. The results were; President Wayne Robinson, Vice President Matthew Yakovakis, Secretary Elizabeth Wheeler, and Treasurer Gerald Wheeler. After the installation ceremony, which was held in our new auditorium, we imme- diately started working on setting up a schedule of assemblies. The Constitution had to be changed and be voted on by the whole student body. The Student Council again sponsored the spectator buses to basketball games, and also a victory dance. We sold Coke at home games and this made it possible to increase our treasury considerably. We also were in charge of the nominations of candi- dates to the Wilton Snow-ball. Football was a topic which was discussed in detail. We were able to purchase an emblem for our new auditorium. The Council joined the Student Council Association of Southern New Hampshire in hopes of gathering new ideas to better our own Council.

SPECIAL CHORUS Special Chorus was organized again under the name of Varsity Singers. ” The group was quite a bit larger this year and had thirty-six members. They made an excellent showing at the second annual Christmas Concert and song excerpts from Ceremony of Carols, ” Gloria in Excelcis, and a lively version of Jingle Bells. Front row-. W. Whitney, T.

Five successful issues of THE TARTAN were printed during the school year. Miss Crista ldi and Mr. Pickering were the Faculty advisors; The Editorial Staff consisted of Editor-in Chief Lillie Naglie, Assistant Editor Elaine Florre, Art Editor Martha Tenney and Literature Editor Susan Emmes. r 'De ztitup (2Cu In spite of the fact that the Debating Club is a realatively new organization around PHS, it has accomplished a great deal. Officers elected at the beginning of the year were: Gale Hennessy, President; Jere Morris, Vice President; Nancy Rodger, Secretary; Wallace Tripp, Treasurer; and Connie Taft, Sergeant-at-Arms. Much credit must be given to Mr. Whelan, our advisor, without whose help this club would not have been a success. Under the direction of Mr. Nims, the members of the Dramatics Club have had some very inter- esting meetings, reading plays and doing some interesting exercises. On March 30th the club members presented two one-act plays for an assembly. Officers for the club were: Lillie Naglie, President; and Jean Simonetta, Secretary-Treasurer. tyCee (?lci6 Front row, from left to right: Jean Guinard, Elaine Florre, Pat Smith, Lillian Guptil, Jean Simonetta, Alice Powers, Anne Hill, Kathy Korpi, Joan Hofer, Martha Tenney, Carol Brassard.

The Glee Club at PHS is fast becoming one of the most popular extra curricular activities. Now that there is room to practice and to hold concerts right in our own school, the group is fast expanding. Under the able direction of Mr. George Breakwell, our teacher and friend, the chorus has given many successful concerts. In December, the annual Christmas concert was performed before a large audience in the new gymnasium. Such choral arrangements as: The Snow Lay On the Ground, Oh Come, Oh Come Emmanuel, The Sleigh, and as a finale, The Hallelujah Chorus, brought much applause from the appreciative audience. Several other groups have been formed from the club and these are the Varsity Singers who do special numbers at the various concerts, and also sing at school functions. Sextets are in the making also and these will surely be a new feature. Very special mention should go to the Freshman and Sophomore Chorus with out whose help the Glee Club wouldn’t have been as successful. The choruses have done many numbers that most would think too difficult for a high school chorus. The Heavens Are Telling, Hallelujah Chorus from the Messiah, and Britten's Ceremony of Carols, to name a few. But with equal versatility they could do a lively version of Rock-a-My Soul or Jingle Bells. Miss Hancock, our very able accompanist, deserved a vote of thanks for all the many times she played for us, both at rehearsals and concerts. 'P'lOtK The annual Junior Prom was given at the Peterborough Golf Club on Saturday, May 21, 1955. Dick Whitney provided the music that fitted in very nicely with the decorations. The theme of the prom was spring and was very well done by the decoration com- mittee. Park benches surrounded by a tree and flowers in the background, and several imitation animals at the base of the trees helped to give a realistic effect of spring. As an added feature, Janice Dolan was crowned Queen of the prom and Don Bailey was her king. Our principal, Mr. Aldrich, did the crowning. SetUon, ‘ScUC On November 19, 1955, the class of '56 were the first to hold a dance in our beauti- ful new gym. The music for this dance was provided by the Silvertones, a teenage group from Pepperal, Mass. The gym was beautifully decorated with pink and red streamers, glittering red ponies and a revolving crystal ball that was the center of attention. The decorations gave the illusion of a carousel and congratulations should go to the committee that was able to carry this out so effectively. The ball was indeed a success.

Wheeler, B. Glazier, G. Cummings, K. Simonetta, R. Florre, Coach Cutting. The sports scene at PHS got off to a running start this fall as the Hilander track team had an excellent season winning all their meets but one. Most of these were triangular meets involving three schools. Leading the Hilanders over the course were; Vem Klardie, Dan Paquet, Dick Dolan, Duko Cunningham, John Coughlin, Jerry Abbott, Ronnie Sullivan, and Wally Tripp. Others on the squad were Danny Barry, Frank Price, Ron Springfield, Bill Glazier, Gerry Wheeler, Ken Simonetta, and Bill Greeny. Duncan Kendall was manager. The harriers had 7 meets of which Vem Klardie won five. He was beaten only by Harold Johnson of Troy. As a team the Hilanders fared well winning six and placing 7 in the state meet at Durham. The outlook for next year is excellent as this year’s junior studded squad will lose only one senior through graduation. ‘Scue tCl The 54-55 Hilander baseball team was a home team which played their home games twelve miles away from home. Since there was no field available in Peterborough, the Hilanders enjoyed the com- forts of the Memorial Field in Bennington during the season. This necessitated traveling twenty-four miles a day to play baseball and unless something is done in the immediate future the Hilanders will be without a local playing field again this season. P. H. A. enjoyed a winning season finishing with an overall record of six wins and only four losses. The highlight of the season was a thrilling last-inning defeat of previously unbeaten Towle High of Newport. This season Coach Parent faces a rebuilding program after losing four first-stringers through graduation. However, the situation may be improved by an available supply of ex-little leaguers.

Second row: Gerald Abbott, Wayne Robinson, Donald Cunningham, Richard Raisanen, Thomas Curren, Kennie Davis, Donald Burke. Third row: Manager Millard Edwards, Coach Parent. A spirited and attractive group of cheerleaders led their team on to victory this year. The squad consisted of nine girls. The cheerleaders got busy early in the season and rehearsed old cheers as well as produced some peppy, new cheers. Miss Christaldi was the coach and helped in every possible way. She introduced many cheers which proved to be very successful. The mascot, Sherry Dube, won fame in the Hilander Halls. She is a cute little blonde girl of three years, who cheered at all our home games. Sherry had a white corduroy, princess style uniform with white accessories. The cheerleading squad had green uniforms with white accessories, which made a very nice appearance.

The basketball season of 55-56 was a good one even though the record shows 5 wins and 6 losses. The most outstanding quality of the team, which was comprised almost wholly of seniors, was the wholesome spirit shown by all the girls when they played. The line up for the games was Jan Dolan, Lorraine Blanchette, and Jean Guinard as forwards, and Liz Wheeler and Paula Taft as subs. The guards were Lillie Naglie, Connie Taft, Peg Buckley, and Carol Bras- sard. The fact that Janice, Jean and Lorraine had played together since grade school was in itself an asset. They were a fast moving, passing, and scoring combination that kept any type of defense on their toes. The guards did a remarkable job and seemed to improve each game. Last but not least, special thanks must be given to two girls who were so faithful and helpful - Sue Bristol and Carolyne Parrott, the managers. “SiMfA S z 6etH zCC Front row, from left to right: D. Paquet, D. Cunningham, B. Brenner, D. Burke, B. Kierstead, Co-Captains; J. Coughlin, G. Hennessy, M. Sutcliffe, Manager; M. Yakovakis, D. Pierce, F. Price, V. Klardie, W. Tripp, Manager; Coach Dart. When Coach Dart called out the basketball team in the early fall it was evident that the Hilanders were in for a rugged season. Peterborough was in the unenviable position of having only one regular returning while most of the opponents had teams which were almost intact from last season. After experimenting early in the season, Coach Dart came up with a combination consisting of Bruce Brenner and John Coughlin at the forward positions. Bob Kierstead at center, and Duko Cunningham and Don Burke at guard. They were ably supported by Gale Hennessy, Danny Paquet, Vern Klardie, Matt Yakovakis, Dave Peirce, and Frank Price. Although this combination lacked in experi- ence, they were able to hold their own against most of the opposition. One of the most pleasing aspects of the season was the way in which, after being soundly trounced early in the season by both Milford and Alvirne, two of the top teams in the state, the Hi- landers came back to come close in pulling upsets in the return engagements.

He did a very good job of this in the second Alvirne game, which was a great help. Although he never did hit his potential scoring stride he did chip in with timely baskets many times during the year. Gale Hennessy - This was Gale's first year of basketball at PHS and on the occasions when he was called upon he gave good accounts of himself. His glasses probably gave him more trouble than all the opposing players, but his jovial, attitude was a big help to team morale. Danny Paquet - This was Danny's only year on the varsity, after losing last year with whooping cough, but his presence was felt by all who played against him. On defense he was all over the floor, ready to cover anyone who came his way. His hustle was a tremendous help in pushing the first team to better play throughout the year. Bobby Kierstead - Bob was our leading scorer for the year and was usually good for his share of rebounds during a game. His patented hook shot drew comments from numerous visiting players, fans and coaches and his tip-ins of missed baskets made him doubly valuable. He played nearly every minute of every game and was giving his best at all times. Don Burke - Donny was one of our defensive standouts during the year, and his exceptionally fine work in the second games with both Alvirne and Conant was greatly responsible for our good showings in these games. He is a good rebounder, a strong driver, and an able passer, and his timely shooting kept us in more than one game. Front row; R. Florre, R. Sullivan, R. Boudreau, J. Wheeler, R. Springfield, J.
