GALLOPING GHOST Class History by KATHERINE HOLMAN and LEO BARcoMB One rainy morning in September, 1940, thirty-tive happy-go-lucky kids were accompanied by their mothers to the red building on Main Street, better known as school, to begin the life of a scholar. Miss Davis, our first-grade teacher, was faced with the task of teaching us the formalities of school. Of the thirty-five, only eleven are graduating this year. We entered the second grade with Miss Kinville as our teacher. We gained eight new students but found that we had lost Robert Payette, Mar- garet Boudro, Paul Belair, Pat Cheney, Robert Huard, Kenneth Stone, Myrtie Seymour, Robert Arbuckle, and M. Garing. Our class was no exception in the third grade as far as broken rulers and trips to the coat room go. Mrs. Stokes gladly lent her services and a brush to keep several of the boys' necks clean. We gained six and lost Rob- ert Bacon, Raymond Shonio, Duncan McLauren, William Jamieson, Diane DuCharme, Barbara North, and Merle Eddy. In the fall of 1943, we entered the fourth grade with a class of twenty- eight and Miss Walbridge as our teacher. This year, we lost eight and gained Jacqueline Burrington and Virginia Louise Flint. The arrival of Virginia caused a little confusion because we already had one Virginia Flint in the class. But Miss Walbridge settled this by referring to them as Virginia L and Virginia M. We passed through the fourth grade with flying colors. In the fifth grade, under the direction of Mrs. Menard, the class presented a play to the visiting mothers, in which Allen Fullam was the beau who came to- call and was entertained by the young sister and brother' while waiting for his girl-friend. They fed him fudge fthoroughly doctored with red pepperlj and settled him in a chair in the seat of which quite a few pins were em- bedded. The play was enjoyed by the mothers and the pupils who took part. This was our first attempt at dramatics, and even then our class showed its ability to cooperate and the will to make everything we try a success. We gained seven and lost Jackie Burrington. In the sixth grade, after gaining six and losing six, our class num- bered thirty-two. Our teacher that year was Miss Marshall, who spent a good deal of time intercepting the continuous flow of notes. During the iifth and sixth grades, our class gained two of R. H. Sis best basketball players, Frank Patch and Allen Fullam. We entered the seventh grade with thirty-two pupils. We lost Eugene Bingham and Shirley Osha, and gained Larraine Farnham, Sandra Richards, and Marilyn Packard. Outstanding in all our minds are our trip to Fort Ticonderoga and the time Sandy Richards broke the Window by slamming the door on her way out. Our teacher was Mr. Brock. In the eighth grade our teacher was Mrs. Gray. This year we lost Lester Delisle and Ray Dufrain, and gained Harold McGee, Virginia Payette, and Rita Martell, making the class number thirty-three. Sandra Richards invited us to the Gulf House for our class picnic. So, in September, 1950, sixty-nine Hbashful boys and silly girlsb stumbled up to face their first day of high school. Our advisors, Mr. Murray and Mr. Cheney, started us off on the road to financial success as we put on two food sales and a social.
