GALLOPING GHOST manders. The male members of our crew had a wonderful time hiding Mr. Parker's belongings in very difficult places. Poor Mr. Parker never did find the bell again! We also abused Happy Birthday 'til We lost the privilege of singing it. Dancing school this year was a big success and we had some hilarious times in the home ec. kitchen. Our class president was Bill Duprasg vice-president, Ronnie Howardg secretary, Ronnie Green- Woodg and treasurer, Liz Parker. Our carnival play was The Monkey's Paw, which took third place. At last! We sailed into a new harbor, Braintree - Randolph Union High School, with Mrs. Perry and Mr. Currier in command. With our new walls, we worked especially hard to reach land. We sold Christmas cards, banners, and candy and in the fall We put on a turkey supper. Every crewman worked like a little beaver to earn enough money to go to New York City. Our senior play, Off The Track, was most successful. Here we are, land just ahead, and all we must do is Wade ashore to a future life. We'll always remember our teachers who did so very much for us and our fond school days.

GALLOPIN6 GHOST We sold candy bars to make money. Our crew was so large and rugged that we were forced to use a life boat which resembled Beanville school, with Mrs. Rowe as captain of it. We swapped ships every once in a while so that we all experienced this life boat. Miss Marshall tried to make artists of us while Mrs. Rowe taught us about the birds and the wild flowers. Our ship navigated on to junior high and we pulled aboard Forrest Manning, Melissa Hockman, Susan Hesaltine and Marilyn Benoir. We took on Mrs. Birchard as captain and Miss Strong as first mate. Our class president was Patty Battles. Our Student Council members were Elizabeth Parker and Arthur Boright. This year we won the magazine drive and gained Hamburg, a stuffed dog, who has been the mascot on deck ever since. We also wrote letters to some prominent persons in the United States, who answered with suggestions and advice for our treasure chest. This year was the first time we ventured further than the playground for our class picnic. A good time was spent at Bear Hill State Forest Park. As we maneuvered along to the next port - number eight, Miss Hoffnagle took over our ship and we glided along smoothly with the assist- ance of Miss Marshall who helped with science and also tried to help us learn about historians' voyages. This year we chose for our president, Neil Webster, and vice-president, Patty Battles. Our Student Council members were Ronnie Howard and Wanda Cox. We were all surprised one day when Miss Hoffnagle received a box of chocolates and decided to share them with her crew. She passed out the top layer, but the second layer proved to be nothing but stones and was not very tasty. Ah! Our first glimpse of land! We threw our net and what a catch! We gained Gordon Small, Ray Chase, Ronnie Greenwood, Bob Braley, Virginia Upham, Jackie Maloney, Volney Blodgett, Linda Chadwick, Phyl- lis Brassard, Martha Jewett, Rita Cady, Lillian Salls, Ethel Hurlburt, Evangeline Sherman, Gerry Tabor Davis, and Carl Capron, who have proved to be great crewmen and an asset to our crew. We were put under the supervision of Miss Johnson and Mr. Gaidys. We earned some money by having food sales Csailsj. This year we won second prize for our Hallo- we'en float, which was a graveyard scene. Our carnival play, Make Room For Rodney, also won second place. A As first mates aboard ship during our sophomore port we had Mr. Streeter and Mrs. Earle. We received our first real pep talk from Mr. Streeter. We chose as our president, Ronald Howard, as our vice-presi- dent, Gene Shapiro, our treasurer, Neil Webster, and our secretary, Linda Chadwick. Our Student Council members were Sheila Whitney and Ron- ald Greenwood. Again our carnival play, Life of The Party, won second place. This was the year of parties and Liz Parker started them off with a pajama party, which was a howling success. At our junior port., we drew Mr. Parker and Miss Farino as our com-
