One of the principal attnactions in a youth center its the opportunity for the young people to be able to run themselves and not have too much adult supervision. Most communities have profited by such centers and l think that such a place pro- vided in Houluton for the teenage group would make the community more attractive to young people and probably help the par- ents solve the problem of youth care and tnaining.

1941-1944 Senior's last chapel! Once again that slow moving line of grey caps and gowns moves up the aisle. Tfhis time it is we. As we watch the Freshmen march in, we re- member our Freshman year. Anne Bither and David Bubar won first honors in the class reading. Betty Hanning and Robert Maxell received second. That year Joan re- ceived her R in tennis. Many of the girls joined the Glee Club and received their R's . The next fall we returned as Sophomores -older, and a true part of Ricker life. Gene Woodworth won his R in basketball. Many of the girls received their R's in basketball. Because of the war, we had to cut ouit the class reading and tennis. Now we see ourselves -as Juniors, more self-assured and taking a more prominent part in school activities., That year saw the beginning of the girl's trio. Anne and Mim received their R's for their participation in the trio. 'Phat year also the cheer leaders were formed with Mim as one of them. Again that year Gene Woodworth received his R in basketball. Anne Bither and Ruth Hagan were chosen to be members of the National Honor Society. ' This year Anne and Mim still are in the trio. Mim leads in the cheers. Gene Wood- worth and Gene Dow are on the basketball team. Warren is manager. The Senior play was a great success with Anne and Robert in the leading roles, Now we come back to the present as the class ode is sung and we march solemnly ou-t. Ruth Hagan 1 -of li 4 CLASS PROPHECY - By Joan Green Well folks, here we are in Chicago, the city of conventions. Imean the city that is Host to conventions-and this one is really a big one. It is a reunion of Ricker alumni and alumnae from all part of the U. S. A. This is your good friend Prof. I. M. Dum, who urges you to use Super Duper hi-test gas for your new rocket plane. Speaking of rocket planes-if you want a good buy in a plane buy a Rocketo ipronounced Rock-etol The plane that will sometime lake you to Mars. Yes, since we've taken care of each class as far back as 1945. ' 12 That's ten years of service to the graduates of Ricker who know good products when they see them. You'd be surprised how many people have graduated from Ricker. It has certainly turned out some fine men and women. But now, it is time to make the rounds of the 1945 table-My! what a fine looking group of men and women. All right folks! let' start interviewing the graduates. Here at the head' of the table is Gene Dow. Gene was npresident of his class in 1945 and so has the seat of honor. As I re- member, Gene was a popular fellow at school, always ready to lend a hand. He was in the Marines in World War II and re- ceived the purple heart and bronze' star for bravery. Now he's married to Serita Lane and they have two lovely children. occupation is farming, which ac- Gene's counts for his ruddy cheeks. Next Evelyn at the table is dark, vivaclous Allen Gates. She and Bob finally settled down. Bob -is coaching at Stearns and Evelyn is the ? ministe-r's assistant there. They have a child, Robert, Jr. Beside Evelyn, talking as usual, is the famed psychiatrist, Dr. Anne Court Bither. She took the five-year nursing course at Colby and then majored in psychiatry at Columibia University. Dr. Bither has finally made usp her mind to be a career woman. It has taken her quite a while to decide this as s.he is attracted easily by the op- posite sex. She is extremely busy taking care of distabled veterans. Next comes your ex-cheerleader, Mim Baxter who is now a popular model and is called Toni lSix. She's married to a fellow named Gregory Powers who was a Lt. in' the a.ir corp. in World War II. Mim has made herself very famous and has had a few minor parts in moving pictures. She and her husband are very happy, and have a daughter named Doreen. Then comes Ruth Fleming. Ruth has been a registered nurse for seven years, and is number one assistant to Dr. Paul Glascow, the famous brain surgeon. Ruth is as conscientious as ever and takes great pride in the fame her work has given her. Gene Woodworth is married to Barbara Sargent-she couldn't escape Gene's wily wit and charm, I guess. He and Herb Gentle are partners in the potato business. They grow and ship potatoes by rocket.
