N52 ESE ESU SEA' Mmzkw wEU2, SENIOR PLAY On the evening of Tuesday, November 19, 1957, the Senior Class presented its Senior Play. The play was held at Union Hall and it turned out to be a great success. The title of the play was The Inner Willy and the cast included: Earle Rich as Willoughby Adams Janice Stone as Aunt Hester Mina Roberts as Aunt Louise Carol Fraser as Aunt Olga Keith Otis as The Inner Willy Sheldon Braley as Stanley Clark Earl Dakin as Mike Barbara George as Marybelle Turner Sylvia Ashey as Trudy Marshall Becky Andrews as Janet Marshall Edith Curtis as Carol Martin Other members of the class were on the various committees and aided in the success of the play. Much credit goes to Mr. Mortland, our director. He spent a great deal of time with us in the weeks before the play, and the class appreciated his efforts. ' THE CLASS MOTTO Honor Lies in Honest Toil! SENIOR DATA The Class of '58 returned to school last fall with many plans to earn money for our class trip to New York. Throughout the year we have had paper drives, suppers, concessions at dances and the basketball games, the Senior play, the Freshman Re- ception and several other activities. With the cooperation of the townspeople, the teachers, and our fellow students, we were able to reach our goal. We had several members on the basket- ball teams this year. Many of our students have held offices in the various clubs and organizations of the school. The class has enjoyed having Mr. Black as their homeroom teacher. We shoul'd like to thank all the teachers for making our four years at S. H. S. what they have been. We wish the other students in the school the best of luck in their remaining years and we hope they will be as proud to say they graduated from Searsport High School as we will be.

Curtis, SENIOR LITERATURE CROMWELL'S DAUGHTER Jean Cromwell was a girl of about twenty. She was a, gay, happy girl that liked the theatre and light dramas by -Shia.kesP69l'e- Her parents were true Puritans, respected highly throughout the country- They dld not approve of Jeanie's actions. This Puritanism that Jeanie's Parents be- lieved in was a movement toward greater strictness of life and simplicity of church organizations. They believed also, that not only the church, but the state, Sh0ElId be Ilke the heavenly kingdom. Manyibelieved that the king didn't have the divine. right. Be- cause of this social and economic unrest a civil war arose. It was at this time that Jean brought a great disgrace to her parents. The first year of the war Jean wrote pamphlets 9.b011f Puritanism and they were bought through- out England causing great controversies among the Puritans as well as the Loyalists. Jeanie's father was also fighting but he was on the opposite side from his daughter. While she was fighting with her pen, he was fighting with arms for the Puritans. Jeanie didn't stop at her writing but con- tinued by spying for the Loyalists. At last the civil war came to a close. King Charles I was taken from the throne and General Cromwell took over. Jeanie's father now demanded that the king and his followers be convicted. He real- ized that his daughter would be tried but be- ing a Puritan and desiring a strong common- wealth, he watched as they cut her head off. As much as she had caused heartache and trouble for him, he had no hard feelings against her. He knew she had died bravely as Joan of Arc had. Being so opposed to her ideas and beliefs, he could not help compar- ing her with Martin Luther, a very st.ub- born man but one willing to fight for the way he had felt as Jeanie had. CAROL FRASER '58 THE MEMORIES LIVE ON Occasionally the old woman brushed the snow from her face as she made her way through the Christmas Eve crowd on the streets. She walked slowly, with an unsteady step. The paper bag she clutched so tightly in her hands contained the soup for her sup- per. There were two cans just in case any- one dropped in, though no one ever did. They used to, but now everyone was too busy with his own life. The throng around the stores increased steadily. Last minute gifts were bought as well as food for the big dinner. Carolers were heard and the cheerful, anticipating voices of the young children as they talked of what Santa would bring them. Hey, Freddie, are you coming to the dance at the 'Y' tonight? And Freddie's reply that he would be there. This pleased the old woman as she walked along. She remem- bered her Christmas parties in her youth. Though her mind was weak and it was hard to recall some of those faraway years, there were some that would live forever. She smiled as she remembered her first party. What a wonderful time she had had and how exciting it had been to string the popcorn on the tree. She wondered if anyone still used the popcorn for decorations. The snow was falling fast now. At the corner she saw a big, jolly Santa Claus ring- ing a bell and wishing everyone passing a Merry Christmas. The church bells could be heard in the distance as she continued. She had had many Merry Christmases but now she was alone. This would be the fifth year. It was hard the first time but after that it was like any other day. But for some reason this year wasn't the same. When she had left her room she hadn't felt any differ- ent, but now she seemed to have an inner contentment. Her thoughts returned to holidays of yesteryear. This would be her iii-3rd Christmas. Time had passed so quick- y. She had been lucky. Though there were years when her family had 'very little, they had always remained close and happy despite the hardships. Somehow she had always re- ceived a gift. One year it was a wide, blue silk ribbon to wear in her hair. Oh, how she had cherished it! She had worn it so proud- ly. How silly a young girl would think that today. But she had been so happy with it then. She was almost home now. Home? A small two-room apartment in a rundown section. But it was hers and she lived with her memories. These memories were so important to her. They filled her life now. A tear rolled down a tired-looking wrinkled cheek as the old woman stiffly climbed the steps. A small boy came around the corner with a handful of snow and threw it at a nearby dog. He looked up at her suddenly and smiled. Merry Christmas, he hollered. The woman stood for a moment and watched him as he hurried after the dog. Blessings, child, and many Merry Christ- mases to you, too, she whispered, and quiet- ly went into her rooml, her room of memories where yesterday's blessings, tasks and hap- pinesses lived still and would continue to live unt.il the old woman herself was only a memory.

We lo-st three members at the start of the year and gained one, Norris Staples from Frankfort. At our first class meeting we elected these class officers: President: Ruth Blake Vice President: Norris Staples Secretafry and Treasurer: Rebecca Ashey Student Council: Bonnie Averill, David O'Donnell, and Jean Castle The Junior Class had seven active members on the basketball teams this year. They included Jean Castle, Edna Welch, Rebecca Ashey, Bonnie Averill, Judy Card, Kenneth Curtis, and Norris Staples. Students aiding the teams in their success were Bonnie Averill, as head cheerleader and George Pattershall, as head manager for the boys' team. Many of our students have participated in the Glee Club, Press Club, French Club, and band. We were all very happy to have Mrs. McCaslin for our homeroom teacher for the second time since we have been in high school. Next year We shall enter our final year at S. H. S. and We are anxious- ly awaiting our Senior year. CAROL DAKIN '59 1 5 ' , , 3 'J '41V,.f'i'Pg 't3-73' . ' an ss.

He kicked, he bucked, he jumped around, He gave a leap and left the ground.. And we who went with hopes so high, Just left them there up in the sky. We learned too late, with some remorse, You cannot harness a saddle horse. DAWN TRIPP '59 DAYS OF OLD In days of old, When knights were bold, When wages were a penny, The rich were few As diamond dew, The poor, alas, were many. The land was under pagan rule, Where just the rich could go to school. The poor were forced to earn their keep, By plowing fields and herding sheep. RICHARD SEEKINS '59 A WINTER NIGHT Th air is cold, the night is still, And shining o'er the distant hill- The moon sends forth the shimmering rays Which frost the snow with golden glaze. The moon beams dance on crusted snow Like fairies running to and fro. They stretch across the bay beyond, And link two shores with a golden bond. The t.rees stand dark against the light, They thrust their arms far into the night, And cast their shadows on the hill. The air is cold, the night is still. JUDY CARD '59 People may forget how fast you did a job, but they won't forget how well you did it.. Minds that have no-thing to confer find little to perceive. When you talk you repeat only what you know, but if you listen you may learn some- thing. THE TREES The trees like lovely ladies grow, Some short, some tall, some in a row. Somehow they seem like friends grown old Their limbs like arms that me enfold. The tree with branches upward flung, How brave, how proud when day is done They stand beneath the setting sung Their whispering leaves all seem to say- 'Tm ready for another day. JACKIE GORDON '59 WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF- Jeanie couldn't laugh? Dawn's slip didn't show? Lillian H. forgot Freddie? Judy S. grew taller? Bonnie lost Malcolm? Ruth got an E ? Mrs. Mac couldn't count money? Norris couldn't sit near Judy? George grew a moustache? David didn't walk Judy to school? Kenneth didn't flirt? Edna didn't get mad? Becky didn't know Jackie? Chummy H. weren't going steady? Becky owned her own car? Carol D. owned a Mercury? Judy C. didn't deliver papers? Judy S. couldn't roller skate? Jeanie didn't get letters from Frankfort? Lillian got into the movies? Pearl could really sing? Jean couldn't chew gum? Bonnie didn't play basketball? Chummy H. got fat? David couldn't drive a Buick? Ruth S. couldn't walk?

Early in the fall the class elected the following officers: President: Sharon Stone Vice President: Cora Dean Ward Secretary: Pat Simpson Treasurer: Roy Young Student Council: Bonnie Murray Several of our classmates played a major part in the success of our basketball teams this year. On the boys' squad, Malcolm Curtis, Harold Lenfest., Maurice Day, and Larry Clements, were valuable to the team. Carlton Smith joined the squad later in the year. Bonnie Murray and Sharon Stone were our representatives on the girls' team. These two girls also were part of the cheering squad. Other members of the class on this were Pat Simpson and Priscilla Rivers. We should like to thank Mr. Lapointe for helping us through our Sophomore year. We enjoyed having him as our homeroom teacher. CORA DEAN WARD '60 SOPHOMORE LITERATURE TWINKLE TOES Twinkle Toes was a very pretty fairy, but no one liked her. It was because she had the worst disposition of all the fairies. . . It was near Christmas and all the fairies were buying presents. Everyone was laugh- ing and singing, but Twinkle Toes didn't see anything to laugh about, so she just sat around. Her best friend, Babe, asked her what she wanted for Christmas. She just looked mad and didn't tell her. She wasn't giving any- one anything and didn't expect anything herself. She did want something, but wanted no one to know. It was a comb to comb her long blonde hair. She had seen the one she wanted in the Bee Hive window. It was red with little firellies on it. It cost a lot of honey and she didn't have enough stored up. She almost wished she hadn't been so rude to Babe but she chased the thought away. It was t.he night of the big party. Santa came and all the fairies got gifts. Twinkle Toes knew she wasn't getting anything so she didn't bother to go. It was held in the old milk bottle, where all the events were held. They were preparing for the party. Fire- flies were taking their places on the ceiling as lights. The cricket string quartet was get- ting warmed up, and all looked pretty good. When the time came, everyone was squeez- ing into the old milk bottle. Twinkle Toes just sat by the door and listened. Someone came to get her. She had a gift. She acted as if she didn't want it, though she did. She opened it and found the comb she had seen in the Bee Hive. Everyone was wondering what she was going to say. She didn't know what to do! She ran to Babe and started to cry. She said how much she had missed by being a grouch. When they saw she was really sorry and had Christmas spirit., they made a circle and sang, For she's a jolly good Fairy. From then on, she joined in all the games. She was crowned Queen of the Fairies and soon became the most popular fairy in Fairyland. PAT SIMPSON '60 The Fir Tree, The Deer, and The Spruce Tree Many years ago, there was a young deer who lived in the deep, deep forest. The deer was a very lonely deer, and the only friend she had was a little fir tree. Every day after breakfast, she went to the little tree to lie down. She would tell the tree of the hunter ihe had watched and how frightened she had een. One day late in December, she went to the little tree, as usual, and what did she see but a little old man, chopping the tree down! She leaped under the bushes and watched as the fir tree was dragged through the snow out of the woods. The sorrowful little deer followed the man out of the woods at a discreet distance, be- ing careful not to step on any twigs that would betray her. After a time, the man came to a small house. He was greeted by a jolly white- haired old lady. As they went in and closed the door, the deer carefully walked to the house and peered through the window. She saw her friend being placed near the win- dow. Red, green, and blue objects were be- ing decked upon the tree. Fearing that she might be seen, she scam- pered back into the forest. As night came, she began to think of ways she could save her little friend. She decided that she would have to go to the house every day. So with this in her mind, she fell asleep. The next day, when she went to the house, she found many lights in t.he windows. As she looked in one of them, her friend, the fir tree, winked happily at her through her sparkling lights. The deer turned and leaped gleefully back home. The sound of beautiful music and chimes awoke the deer early the next morning. She leaped to her feet and raced to the house. There she saw children excitedly opening pretty packages. The fir tree blinked her sparkling lights at the little deer and she knew at once that the fir tree was happy to be a part of this festive occasion. The little deer felt happiness for the fir tree, but now loneliness crept into her heart for the loss of her good friend. She sadly went back to the forest, scarcely seeing ahead of her, for the tears were blinding her eyes. The branches of a tree brushed her neck and she quickly glanced to see what was touching her. There stood a young blue spruce spreading its branches sympathetical- ly towards the little deer. The deer queried, Why haven't I seen you before ? Because, the blue spruce replied, a beautiful, stately fir tree has over-shadowed me all my life. It was cut down for a Christ- mas tree yesterday. From that day on, the proud spruce tree and the little deer became good friends and never parted. MARGARET JEFFERY '60 WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF- Pat or Margaret flunked a course? Harold couldn't argue? Bonnie and Sharon didn't sell candy? Hazel couldn't do English assignments? Malcolm couldn't play basketball? Stretch won an Academy Award? Mr. Lapointe couldn't drive a car? Maurice had a crew cut? Priscilla hated all boys? W' Sitting, left to right: R. Clark, L. Seekins, S. Fowler, P. Martin., P. Otis, O. Smith, J. Garrity D. Ward, L. Braley, E. Matthews, R. Smart. Second row: J. Ashey, C.

We lost only one mernbei during the year. In October we elected the following class officers President: Owen Smith Vice P'V6S1lCl67Lt.' Judy Garrity Secretary and Treaswrefr: Paul Otis Student Council: Pat Martin and Dennis Ward In the early fall the Seniors held the annual Freshman Reception. Though they put us through a lot, we all enjoyed it. The members from our class participating in basketball this year were: Harriette McLaughlin, Weldeena Hersom, Lorr-aine Braley, Helen Varney, Ruth Clark, Holly Bagley, Keith McKeen, Kris Hansen and Rodney Duley. Joe Ashey and Paul Otis were managers for the boys' team and Pat Martin and Judy Garrity acted as Jr. Varsity cheerleaders. During the magazine drive the class went all out to win the first prize of 2540 for the class. Several of the other individual prizes were also won by members of our class. We are all proud to have Mr. Mortland as our homeroom teacher for our first year in high school. LORRAINE BRALEY '61 . xx Q Y' FRESHMAN THE MIRACLE MEETING 0nce in a small village just outside Lon- don, England, three little boys were happily playing in the street. Two of the boys were brothers, John and Benson Scott. They were the sons of the well-known Dr. Robert Scott, who practiced medicine in London. The other boy was the son of some neighbors that lived down the street. I These boys had been playing with their toys when a tall, shaggy haired man with a dusty beard and black wool coat came along. He inquired as to what the boys were doing. After the boys answered, the man asked, How would you like to go aboard a real ship ? Naw, replied Benson, we're having fun right here where we are. The neighbor's boy said the same thing. Johnny, the other Scott boy, was a little more adventurous than the others and he told the man that he would like to go along with him. Little Ben- son, who was eight while Johnny was only six, warned him that his father would scold him but Johnny went anyway. Later in the evening Johnny's father heard this news and was startled. His par- ents called the law in on it. Benson told the inspector the whole story but before night- fall little Johnny Scott was on his way out of the harbor on the French ship Pierre and bound for France. Little Johnny soon grew homesick but as days passed he grew to like his friend, the tall bearded man, Captain Blanchard Lafayette. Years passed and Johnny was now a strong handsome boy of fifteen. Johnny loved the sea and he and the Captain went on many voyages together. Soon after this, there was news of a great war between Britain and France. Johnny went to war for France to fight the English with the Captain. The king of France sent a letter to Cap- tain Lafayette and requested that he and his crew volunteer for a more dangerous mis- sion that would take them far up along the British coast. They undertook this mission and were on their way within a week. As they were fairly close to the British coast they came into a sort of storm that grew worse until the waves were so high that they would wash across the deck. The rain was fiercely pouring downward and the thunder roared. This storm lasted through- out the night and ended early the next morn- ing. When the fog cleared they found them- selves within one hundred yards of a British vesse . LITERATURE The two ships were amazed at the sight of one another. All was silent for a moment and then a shot rang out from the French ship. The battle was on. The ships drew up closer to each other. Then men were leaping back and forth across the decks fighting with swords, gunbutts, and nearly everything they could get their hands on. The men, some wounded, most of them dead, were covering both decks until only a handful of men were left. Among them were Johnny and six other men from the Pierre. They were left to fight off seventeen British sailors. These fought on but the French could not over- take the strong English force and sl'owly they went down fighting. Johnny was taken prisoner on their ship. The crew of the English ship had planned to hang the crew left on the other ship. As they led the men up to the upper deck, the leader of the Englishmen thought he saw something familiar about Johnny. He asked him where he came from and some of the places he had been and his name. Johnny kept quiet for a while but then he decided to talk to stall for time, not that it made any difference. When Johnny mentioned his last name, the other stated that his name was also Scott, Benson Scott. The two young men, one seventeen and the other nineteen, now realized that they were brothers. They shook hands, hugged each other, and started laughing and talking. The other British men thought of Benson as a traitor being so friendly to this Frenchman. Benson tried to explain but all they could think of was a betrayer who had managed to make friends with the enemy. The men led them both to the hangman's noose hanging horridly down with the sign of death. So ends the story of the Scott brothers, brave men who died at the hands of their own country, England. But they met at last. KEITH MCKEEN '61 WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF - Pat stopped liking boys? Priscilla Y. stopped talking? George L. had his work done on time? Kris got a C? Harriette didn't have her daily lunch? Owen lost weight? Dennis gained it? Judy stopped chewing gum? Paul couldn't borrow a pen? Weldeena weren't going steady? Gary studied his civics lesson? The whole class knew their English? We didn't have to do our spelling? Mr. Mortland couldn't speak English? Paul minded his own business? MY OPINIONS OF SPACE TRAVEL For many centuries, al-most since man first lived, people have looked up towards the moon, stars, and other heavenly bodies and wondered just what they were. i In early times the people interested thought that the bright shining objects were all stars, but later it was discovered that some of these so-called stars were really planets and that the stars were other suns. Perhaps it was these discoveries that started man thinking about the conquest of space. For the last few centuries man has been probing into the reaches of space, gathering information and some data that will some- day, soon, enable us to blast off for some dis- tant planet. Through the help of telescopes, telephoto lenses and other complicated in- struments man has learned of in-ost of the conditions that human beings will meet and have to endure if he should take one of these spaceships to outer space. We have made tremendous progress in the development of a vehicle for such flights. We have sent many rockets thousands of miles up to gather and record atmosphere's conditions at those altitudes. Many men have gone so far as to launch three satellites, one of which contained a living animal. These satellites revolve around the earth every ninety-six minutes, picking up atmos- pheric conditions and relaying them to earth. Because of these actions and experiments we have developed another subject toward which to direct our 'cold-wars. Is all of this probing, experimenting, and money- spending worthwhile? I have not yet taken either side of this question as a definite answer. They both have their advantages and disadvantages. Some of the advantages overpower the dis- advantages and vice versa but all together they seem to balance. One of the advantages comes from the fact that some-day we may need to live some- where else. We have all heard that in many, many years, yet to come, the world will be destroyed. When this happens we shall have to take our belongings and leave. Where shall we go? Why, another planet or maybe even our own natural satellite, the moon. Another possible advantage is one con- cerning our natural resources. Many of our natural resources, especially metals, are starting to wear out. We are using them much faster than they can be replaced. Both coal and iron ore took thousands of years to form and we take tons of them in one hour. When these necessary metal deposits run out, we are really going to find hard times. Scientists, however, believe that some of the other plants contain these deposits and that someday we may rely wholly on them for our supply. Another and even more important advan- tage is one concerning world peace, and bet- ter and stronger World brotherhood. I be- lieve that the first country that puts up a successful manned satellite or space sta- tion will be the one who dominates the rest of the world. If some friendly peace- minded country succeeds in doing this, there may not be another war, but if an aggressive country first succeeds, there may be only one rule and that would be a dictatorship. Still another chance which could be either an advantage or disadvantage, depending upon how you look at it, is the possibility that other life is existing on another planet. If there is, they may be far more advanced in some fields and, therefore, we might learn inhew methods and part of' a new culture from em. 'Now I can state a few of the disadvan- tages that are aroused on this subject. One of the main ones is the possibility that other projects and developments will be slowed down or forgotten. We are liable to forget about the things we need now and for the very near future, and strive only for things to come. Another question arises from the fact that mentally man is not ready for space- travel, but physically he is fit. This may mean that man's mental fears and ideas might have to be changed if he is to survive a trip into outer-space. One fear is that in- born fear of falling or weightlessness. In space this is one condition that man will meet continuously and will have to get over or he will crack-up or go nuts, Another disadvantage might result in the question :U If we do find life on another planet, will we be able to get along with one another? 'There is a good chance of our be- ing rivals and even enemies. If this were to happen it would mean more trouble. It is for this reason, greatly, that I think we should try to succeed in maintaining world peace right here on our own little earth before we try for another planet. As we see space travel drawing closer to us, perhaps we will take into consideration facts that say we can't get along with one another here on our worldly planet, earth: how will we ever do it on some other planet that is entirely different from ours? OWEN SMITH '61 SMILE AWHILE Doc: I've examined you thoroughly and all you need is a rest. Jean: Why, Doctor! I need medicine. Look at my tongue. Doc: That needs a rest, too. Mr. Mortland: Can anyone give me an example of poor economy? Stretch: I know a man who took such ex- tra care by taking long steps to save hlS tell dollar shoes that he split his twenty dollar pants. John: Are you kind to animals? Ralph: Why, you looking for a favor? Mr. Murray: Inflation means that by the time teachers get a raise, it won't be enough. Keith O. to Bob A.: I have no trouble rolling the cigarettes: it's the addition of the filter-tip that gets me. Owen Smith, proud owner of a pint-size sports oar, decided to have a little fun with Ralph at the service station. Owen: I'd like a quart of gas and a half pint of oil. . Ralph: Yes, sir. Should I breathe into your tires? Two worms meeting each other coming out of their holes. First worm: You're beautiful. I want to marry you. Second worm: Don't be silly. I'm your other end. Joan L., handing the package to the postal clerk: It's fragile so throw it underhand, please. Patrolman to Sheldon B.: Of course you didn't hear the siren! You had already passed the sound barrier. Ruth B.: Are caterpillars good to eat? Bonnie A.: No. Why? Ruth B.: Well, there was one on your let- tuce in your sandwich, but it's gone. Mr. Black: Where is silver found? Harold L.: Under the Lone Ranger! . It's all right to let your mind wander occa- sionally as long as you don't try to follow it! Mr. Mortland: Did you write this poem all by yourself? Rebecca G.: Every line of it! Mr. Mortland: Well, I'm glad to meet you, Edgar Allen Poe. I thought you were dead. Mr. Black: You missed my class yester- day, didn't you? Rodney D.: No, sir, not a bit. Bob: I ilunked that quiz flat. Earl: What was the trouble, didn't you know the answers? Bob: Yeah, but I had vaseline on my hair and they slipped my mind. Clerk: Did you kill any moths with those moth balls I sold you the other day? Mina R.: No, I tried for five hours, but I couldn't hit one! Give an athelete an inch and he'll take a foot. But let him take it! Who wants ath- lete's foot anyway? As the cat said when his tail was cut off, It won't be long now! Becky A.: Know what time it is? Laura S.: Yeah. Becky A. : Thanks. b 3What brought me here ? asked the rose- u . The stalk, answered the rose. The human brain is wonderful. It starts working the moment you get out of bed in the morning and doesn't stop until you're called on in class. Dennis V.: I wish I had a nickel for every girl I've kissed. Ralph W.: What would you buy, a pack of gum? Sylvia A.: What happened to your finger? Sheldon: Oh, I was downtown getting some cigarettes yesterday and some clumsy fool stepped on my hand. Maurice D.: Do you enjoy Kipling? .Margaret J.: I don't know 3 how do you kipple? Mr. Lapointe took a copy of a final exam to Carol F. to have it mimeographed. She looked it over and said, But, Mr. Lapointe, this is the same exam you gave last semester. I know, he said, but I've changed the answers. ' QQ Sitting, left to right: L. Furbush, E..

EIGHTH GRADE We began our second year of Junior High with an enrollment of thirty-nine pupils. There were twenty boys and nineteen girls. Two pupils left us during the first period. They were Ernest Margerson and Charlotte Gibbs. Beth and Jenny McLeod left during the Christmas vacation. The class officers for the year were: President: Diana Weddell Vice President: Malcolm Collins Secretary and Treasnrew Barbara Partridge Student Council: Judy Ellsmore, George Small The boys on the basketball team were George Small, Malcolm Collins, Wayne Sanborn, Leroy Dakin, Timmy Light, and James York. These boys, with the Seventh Grade boys, had several games during the season and in March they competed for the championship in the tournament at. Unity. Mr. Murray was the coach and the entire school was proud of the showing the team made. Next year we will start our first year in high school. We hope we do as Well as We have in Junior High. We have enjoyed having Mrs. Tripp and Mrs. Rivers as our teachers for the past t.wo years. CHERYL CLARK '62 3: fi 'i .AQQQL -A - Front row, left to right: G. Krienke, R. Simpson, S. York, D.

SEVENTH GRADE Our first day of school this year was very exciting because we had not been in this building before. It took us a while to get used to having two teachers. They are Mrs. Rivers and Mrs. Tripp. We elected the following officers the second month of school: President: Donna McKeen Vice Presid,ent.' Sally York Secretary and T reasurer: Sandra Rogers ' About the last of October the class went up to Sandra Rogers' quartz mine. We took our lunches and ate them up there. Several of our students participated in the Junior High tournament this year. They won the championship. CHARLENE KNOX '63 'wir ' ali! i SPRING As I Was walking along the road, I saw a big spotted toad. I saw a bird trying to get a worm. It was so funny to see him squirm. The honey bees were gathering honey. To hear them buzz was oh so funny, The spring day was so sunny- And our ice cream was so runny. I went to the woods to see some rabbits, And to watch them and their habits. I saw a squirrel chattering on a branch, It looked as if he were doing a dance. I saw a butterfly pass me by. He looked as beautiful as the sky. I saw a humming bird humming away. He hummed as though he wanted to play. The cloudless sky was a beautiful blue, And the beautiful bird above me flew. I was startled by the day- That's just about all I can say. MALCOLM COLLINS '62 THE NIGHT, AND THEN- Outside the night was gray, Most objects dimmed from sight, And inside people snoring, Waiting for daylight. In the west the moon was shining, Its light fading from its face, Hanging there majestically, On thousands of miles of space. Also in the vast heavens, Brightly shining, were the stars, And in among those planets- Mercury, Venus and Mars. Then suddenly Without warning, The stars lost all their light, And with them the moon and planets Were lost in the beam so bright. It was the sun, in all its glory That shut out the stars from view, The very sun that keeps us warm And our hearts from feeling blue. A DAY WITH SPARKY Once upon a time on a hot, misty summer day, in July in a little town near the Mississippi River was born a little yellow cocker spaniel named Sparky. Everyday, Sparky would run along the river banks at the heels of a gang of boys. Going in caves and trying to steady him- self on rafts with them was natural. This was a special day for Sparky because it was his second birthday. He woke up to a bright sunshiny day with branches blowing in the breeze. All Sparky could do was hurry. He finished his break- fast and took off in a cloud of dust toward the river to see the old Captain of the river- boat. The Captain picked him up and took him in the cabin for a bone and a doughnut, since it was his birthday. Sparky gobbled up his doughnut and then headed for town. He pranced along the street looking in windows and then, to his great surprise, there was Sugar ia little poodleb, the girl of his dreams. Sparky sprang and jumped like a kitten. Suglar came up wiggling all over and winked at im. He trailed along after her and then Billy, the bulldog, stepped in front of him. Before Sparky knew what had happened he lay sprawled out on the ground. He could hardly move. Women! Sparky didn't Want any- more to do with them. He crawled all the Way home and went to bed. DIANA WEDDELL. '62 WINTER FUN To skate and ski Is lots of fun, On Helds and ponds When day is done. But under the moon And a starry sky, We go tobogganing With spirits high. JoAN DAY, '63 JUNIOR HIGH LITERATURE OUR WORLD It's odd how this queer World Keeps turning round and round. It turns on its axis And never makes a sound. We hope the earth keeps turning Around the sun all day. 0 Since on its face we're living, And here We plan to stay. Although this earth is heavy, iAboard there's quite a moby. It doesn't stop a minute- But goes on to do its job. CHERYL CLARK '62 MAINE From North to South, From sea to sea, Wherever fancies roam There's a place that's always dear to me: Our State of Maine and home. Her coasts are rugged, Her people full of cheer, Bidding the traveling stranger To come to settle here. The many mountains, streams, and lakes, Her wondrous beauty shroud, To give her glamour all supreme, To make her people proud. This to our own dear happy home- We will always loyal beg Wherever we go, there will be a day When our thoughts will be of thee. JUDY ELLSMORE '62 THE WIND The wind is such a funny thing- It'l'l even blow at a kin-g. The gusts are so funny, They'll even scare a bunny. One day I heard the telephone ring, This really was a comical thing, For who should answer, but the wind. Oh, wasn't that a funny thing? SANDRA O'r1s '63 UNDERSTANDING THE TEACHERS I am an eighth grade student, Who very hard has tried To understand the teachers, And let them be my guide. Math is my worst subject, It is hard and tiresome, too. I try to think the problems out- But thinking just won't do. History is a quite interesting subject, Although I don't understand, About Maine's legislature And all about its land. I can't understand the English, As probably you can see. That is why I am so bad At writing po-etry. BARBARA PARTRIDGE '62 TOM THUMB Tom was a very brave man. He sailed the seven seas in a frying pan. He could swim just like a fish, Whether in a thimble or in a dish. Now Tom was a giant killer, so he set out one day, To kill a sea serpent big as a bay, And he started off with a bobby ping He got out the bay and he saw a fin. Now you may think this was a sin, But he wound up his fist, and clipped The serpent right under the chin. This is the way he saved his maiden fair, From the certain fate in the serpent's lair. They got married that fine day, And lived happily ever after, in their own way. STEPHEN MARTIN '63 WINTER AND SPRING The Winter with its coats of white, Turns to black when it comes night. When the dawn breaks clear and bright, Once again it's ermine white. The trees, bent low with icy snow, Turn the branches to jeweled glow. When the sunlight touches them, Each little twig is a precious gem. Then finally the spring will come, The birds will sing, and the bees will hum. The ground will thaw and the ice will gog Once again there'1l be no snow. JAMES YORK '62 ,gy a 'ff' Sitting, left to right: M. Jeffery, S. Stone, B. Averill, J. Castle, P. Simpson, J. Card, P.

He has done a great deal for the band, the chorus, and the general music program of the school. We should all appreciate his devoted time and effort. Our school band, which includes many of the lower grade pupils as well as many from the high school, has participated in a number of activities throughout the year. They played several selections at the presentation of the Senior Play and they also played several selections at the operetta presented in March. Next year we shall all be looking forward to a really great band with perhaps new uniforms. The operetta, Sadie Shaw from Arkansas, presented on March 28, which we prepared for throughout the year, proved to be a great success. The leading parts were distributed as follows: Zeke Shaw, Kenneth Maddocksg Mrs. Shaw, Sharon Stone, Sadie Shaw, Judy Card, Gabe Wilkins, Norris Staples, Davy Holler, David O'Donnellg Frances, Jean Castle, Daisy, Priscilla Rivers, Violet Mansneld, Pat Simpsong Mont- gomery Gaylord, Paul Otis, Melbourne Davenport, Keith Otisg Whitney Huntington, Owen Smithg Celeste, Bonnie Averill. The proceeds from this affair were used for band instruments. Next year we are planning to present another operetta entitled A Waltz Dream. The Glee Club also attended the Eastern Maine Musical Festival along with the other high schools of the union on May 4 at Camden. NORRIS STAPLES '59 rs Q ing .. Alggqnfl li Xf i - xy Q. .

PRESS CLUB Although our Press Club this year has not succeeded in producing as many issues of the Viking as they did last year, we have accomplished quite a lot. We have had as our advisors two of our teachers, Mr. Lapointe and Mr. Mortland, who have helped us a great deal'. At the first meeting of the year the following officers were elected: President, Janice Stone, Vice President, Judy Garrityg Secretary, Pat Simpsong Treasurer, David O'Donnell. Several of the other students have 'participated in the work of publishing the paper, which included the various editors, reporters, and proof readers. The Press Club is fun but it requires a great deal of hard work on the part of everyone. We are hoping next year to do a still better job and thus produce a still better paper.

No club of this sort had ever been formed in Searsport High School so We went ahead with the plans. After drawing up a Constitution, we elected the following officers: President, Bonnie Averill, Vice President, Pat Simpson, Secretary, Cora Dean Ward, Treasurer, Sharon Stone. We held a French Cabaret and invited the Winterport and Stockton French classes. Although We made little profit We did make friends with all of them so the profit was unimportant. We hope the future French classes will carry on our French Club. We've had a lot of fun and have benefited greatly from it. Thanks goes to our teacher and advisor, Mr. Lapointe, who has helped us make the club a success. SHARON STONE '60 sifting, left to right: R. An- '-21'-. - drews, J. Castle, S. Braley, dnt. 1 X. J.

S. in basketball but a very entertaining one. The boys came through with a 11-7 record for regular season play which is not to be scorned. There were t.hree inexperienced ball players on the starting five. These same ball players were much improved before the end of the season. With the strong bench that accompanied the team this year, the prospects for a championship team in the future are very good. The credit for teaching the boys their fundamentals and other basket- ball savy goes to our fine coach, Mr. Black. ROBERT ANDREWS '58 HOME GAMES AWAY GAMES S. H. S. 48 Stockton 31 S. H.

He has done a great deal to develop our junior high team and to bring us the Waldo County Championship. Due to the fact that practices have been few and far be- tween, the season looked black at the beginning, as though it would not amount to much, but instead it turned out to be rather successful. The cheerleaders also contributed a lot to the winning of the championship. They deserve credit also. We are in hopes that next year's team will work hard and take the trophy again. We are sure they are willing and capable. MALCOLM COLLINS and GEORGE SMALL '62 , 'Q'-iP0 vigil? QQP. , -Rf 'wich ' BOYS' VARSITY BASEBALL Seated, left to right: J. Redikcr, M. Curtis, D. Clements, J.

Those making the Varsity squad were: Bonnie Murray, Sharon Stone, Patricia Simpson, and Priscilla Rivers, all Sophomores. The other mem- ber of the squad and the captain was Bonnie Averill, a Junior. The girls on the Junior Varsity squad were: Judy Garrity and Patricia Martin from the Freshman class and Priscilla Rivers and Pat Simpson from the Sopho- more class. Priscilla and Pat were co-captains for t.his squad. We feel that we had a very successful season and that both squads played a major part in the spirit of the school. We would like to thank Mrs. Black for the time and effort she gave. VARSITY CHEERLEADERS Sitting, left to right: Bonnie Murray, Bonnie Averill, Pat Simpson.

About 20 girls started practice but a few of the girls dropped out during the first part of the season, leaving 15. Mr. Black was our coach. He spent many hours practicing and drilling us to get us ready for our very successful year. The starting line-up for most of the year included Jean Castle as center, Jan Stone and Becky Ashey as forwards and Joan Lenfest, Sylvia Ashey, and Edna WVelch as guards. C0-captains were Jan Stone and Joan Lenfest. The girls on the second string showed a great deal of progress during the year -and were very important to the team. After the start of the season we decided to have new basketball uni- forms. We sponsored a food sale and used the proceeds to purchase these. The sale was a great success, thanks to the townspeople. Our only defeat of the league season was to Brooks on their court. We lost 21-22 in a very close and thrilling game. After the loss the team came black to win the remaining games and end the season with a 15 wins, one loss record. We won the Waldo County League Championship for the Hrst time and received the trophy. We want to thank Mr. Black for his time and effort in helping us win the championship. What a wonderful coach! That's a job well done! A great deal of credit goes to our managers. Jackie Whiting started the year but left to enter the WACS. Laura Stairs and Becky Andrews took the job and did everything for the girls. The whole team appreciated their hard work. We don't want to forget our cheerleaders who did a magnincent job! There are only three Seniors on the team so next year looks good for the team. We wish them the best of luck. SYLVIA ASHEY '58 HOME GAMES AWAY GAMES S. H. S. 62 Stockton 18 S. H.

For the first time, Sears- port entered the State One-Act Play Contest, presenting a comedy entitled Nobody Sleeps at Belfast on March 25th in competition with Crosby, Castine, and Camden. Although Crosby's play was named the best production of the evening, we feel that Searsport came away with her share of laurels. Sharon Stone's relaxed and vivacious portrayal of Daisy won for her the distinction of being named the outstanding actress of the evening, while Carlton Smith's convincing representation of Spike, an amateur burglar, caused him to be named one of the two best actors of the evening. This would not have been possible, of course, without excellent support from the rest of the cast, Judith Card-, Bonnie Averill, and Carol Fraser. We feel that this is an eminently satisfactory be- ginning, and we hope for an even more impressive performance next year that may take us further in the contest. For the county contest, three plays were prepared: a comedy called The Professor Roars by the Juniors under the direction of Mrs. McCasling an allegorical play, The Decision, by the Sophomores directed by Mr. Lapointeg and a farce entitled Nobody Home by the Freshmen with Mr. Mortland as their director. The three plays were presented in Union Hall on April 4th in the order just mentioned, and, without being smug, we feel justified in saying that the whole affair was a success, and that each play was enthusiastically received by a rather large and varied audience. High points in the J uniors' play came when Professor Fromkin CKenneth Curtisb was inveigled by two of his students Q Dawn Tripp and Pearl Youngj into demonstrat- ing how to represent a lion. He is caught in this most unprofessional attitude by Aunt Justina fEdna Welchj, who administers a belated paddling and threatens worse if he is not more kind to his sweet wife CRuth Blakej. Stage managers for this play were Carol Dakin and Charlend Howard. The Freshmen broke the ice for the evening as they frolicked through a play that presents an effective if not very subtle way of discouraging unwelcome guests. George Carter fKeith McKeenJ and his wife fSharon Richb are persuaded by their imaginative daughter fJudy Garrityj to feign insanity in order to frighten away two leech-like visitors, Frank Bumper fOwen Smithj and his tenacious wife, Cora CMary Harrimanj. The fun is heightened by the arrival of unexpected callers, George's boss, Mr. Gilman fDennis Wardj and his wife C Helen Varneyh. Success is achieved by the Carters when Frank leaves, with Cora in tow, not wishing to be murdered in his bed, and a bed without a mattress at that, as he puts it. Kris Hansen was stage man-ager. The Sophomores' play, The Decision, was named the best of the evening by the three judges, Miss Sally Dow and Mrs. Carl Robbins of Searsport and Mr. Lahay of the Brooks faculty. The title of the play is derived from the plight of Eddie Fleming, who has been injured in an automobile accident and who must choose between Life and Death, both of whom appear to him to explain what each has to offer. Eddie was played by Carlton Smith, Death, by Margaret J efferyg and Life, by Patricia Simpson. The play is made the more moving by the grief of Eddie 's mother and father CHazel Jackson and Paul Gilmorel and by a wistful little scene in which Eddie is allowed to relive a happy moment with his sweetheart fPriscilla Riversj who was killed in the accident. A sup- porting role is that of the nurse, Miss Curtis, exceptionally well pl-ayed by Bonita Murray. The stage manager was Cora Dean Ward. Make-up for all the plays was by Mrs. Cecil Card and Mrs. Sidney Campbell. The Decision was presented in Winterport on April 7th in competition with plays by XVinterport and Stockton. Winterport won with a comedy called Here Comes the Bri e. It is neither sour grapes nor self-satisfaction that prompts us to say that in dra- matics the important thing is not winning but producing the best show possible. Thus we have had a good season, for while we did not go to the top in either the state or the county contest, yet not one of our productions has been a failure. lg S SENIOR CLASS MEETING, CANDY CUPBOARDU 'tim 'VV X f,w'5Fzw HSTUDEN T EXCHANGE, f-:PX f -'v-v ,1 .Y nf' CHOW TIME AT SEARS PORT HIGH r Jn' il '- X 'A 1 xii' Left to right: Pearl Young, Rebecca Ashey, Edna Welch, Bonnie Murray, Hazel jackson, Mina.

The librarians, who are pictured above, have worked very conscientiously along with other students of the school and under Mrs. McCaslin's super- vision to classify and completely catalogue the books. By this work being done and the library being arranged in orderly fashion the reading and reference material is much easier to find. We are all grateful to these girls for the work they have done to make our library work easier for us all.

After graduation, I attended Maine Central Inst.itute in Pittsfield and was graduated from Bates Col- lege. Later, I did graduate work at the University of Maine. From 1942 until 1952, I was principal of Warren High Schoolg I taught in Rockland High School for two years, and now I am commercial manager at radio Station WRKD in Rockland. One of my most interesting experiences took place last summer and fall. I was hired by Twentieth Century Film Corporation to act as a tech- nical advisor for the movie PEYTON PLACE. We were on location in Maine for three weeks. In June, I went to Hollywood with the company and was there from June until October. My wife and my daughter were with me part of the time. We travelled throughout Southern California and in Mexico, saw all of the high-lights of Los Angeles, and met many famous people. The work was interesting. For example, one day we Were filming in an area covered with two feet of snow-yet the temperature all day was over 95 degrees. We shot night scenes during the daytime, outdoor scenes indoors, and indoor scenes outdoors. When we needed a full-size Maine elm tree, the production department made one out of plastic. Scenes were shot that made certain of the actors or actresses appear to be in Camden. Yet many of these people have never been in Maine. I worked regularly with stars such as Lana Turner, Lloyd Nolan, David Nelson, Terry Moore, Hope Lange, Diana Varsi, Arthur Kennedy, and many others. In addition, quite a few famous actors and actresses who were not in PE-YTON PLACE dropped in to watch the filming. Tglinrny Sands was on hand. Pat Boone dropped in. Each day brought o ers. The biggest event for my daughter, Carolyn, was the day she spent with the Nelson family watching the production of the Ozzie and Harriet Show. Ricky and David made a real hit with her. This is a brief account of the past 22 years since my high school days. I remember often the fine times that we had at Searsport High School- and the excellent work of Mr. Greene, Mrs. McCaslin, and Mrs. Wilson. Searsport High School will always remain dear to the hearts of every graduate.
