Turners Falls and Orange. We have all worked diligently in our respective schools and in the Ralph C. Mahar Regional School, both scholastically and socially. ORANGE HISTORY As frightened. insecure freshmen, we who entered Orange High School in 1955 comprised a class of 85. After the anticipated horrors of the Freshman Welcome were turned into fun for all concerned. we settled down to the job of establishing ourselves as a hard-working, respected class. Mr. Kalopreros was our faculty advisor. We elected Alfred Letourneau as our first class president and gave him a working committee of Judith Punis, vice- presidentg Clifford Shatos, treasurerg and Linda Dexter, secretary. Representatives to the Student Council were Clifford Shatos, Alfred Letourneau, and Linda Dexter. By the time we entered our second and last year at Orange High School we had lost our self-conscious- ness and had grained a new self-confidence. We elect- ed to office William Amidon, presidentg Carole Small, vice-president5 James Brown, treasurer, and Barbara Tepper, secretary. Our representatives to the Student Council were Clifford Shatos, Linda Dexter, William Amidon, James Brown and Sue Belcher. Determined to make our last year at Orange High School memorable, we entered the one-act play com- petition with a play entitled The Lady Who Ate an Oyster . This was under the direction of Miss Ryan fnow Mrs. Dareyl. Our play won first prize in the competition and Linda Dexter and Charlotte Hall won additional honors for our class by being chosen the best actresses from all the productions. ln May we held our Sophomore Hop. Determined to make it different, and since it was leap year, we made the ruling that a girl could date a boy, if she so desired. In keeping with the idea of being dif- ferent, we made the decorations conform to a Hawaiian luau, with Mr. Hall and his Honoluluites strumming dance music in the background. In the last Minstrel Show at Orange High School, William Amidon and Alfred Letourneau represented our class as end men. All in all it was a good year and we left Orange High School halls with a mixed feeling of sorrow and accomplishment. PETERSHAM HISTORY The present Petersham seniors of Mahar began their freshman year with twelve pupils. Soon after school opened in September we had our first class meeting and elected the following officers: presi- dent, Geraldine Smithg vice-president, Rexyne Law-
