Senior Class . . . September came and we, the class of 1954, mounted McLellan Hill for our three-year stay. We elected our class officers with jack Byron, president, Leon Huard, vice-president, Linda. Scott, secretary, and Ronald Charrier, treasurer. Mr. Ribbons was chosen class advisor and Stu- dent Council members were Bob Stevens and Ronald Charrier. At the end of October the juniors feted us with a dance to Welcome us to the school. The call for football went out and several of the boys of ,54 participated. Well, maybe not too much action but wait 'till next year. Basketball came around and several eager sophs were found dribbling around the gym. During the year the sophomores helped on vari- ous dance committees and took part in the band, chorus, and orchestra. In the fall we returned as juniors and upper- classmen. We elected our class officers and or- ganized ourselves for the year. Ronald Charrier was chosen president and Leon Huard, vice-pres- identg Diane Perkins, secretary, and james Dun- lap, treasurer. Student Council members were Bob Stevens, Diane Giroux, and jack Byron. Mr. Webber was chosen class advisor. Football season started with a new coach, Andy Speed. The juniors, all of one year veterans, were a big help to the team. At the end of October we put on a very successful Sophomore Reception. Basketball season came and the boys, as well as the girls, welcomed it with much enthusiasm. Our Girls' and Boys' State Representatives were Linda Scott, Anna Belliveau, Norman Randall, james Dunlap, and Charles Weston. Highlight of the year was our junior Prom. The juniors working on the committees turned out a well- planned prom with wonderful decorations. Diane Giroux was crowned queen and Ronald Char- rier, king. In the spring, baseball, track, and the one-act play took up much of the juniors' time. September came and found us again mount- ing McLellan Hill, this time as the mighty seniors. We all set out this year with a strong determination to work our hardest and do our best and leave a good memory of the class of 1954.

To represent us on the Student Council were Carolyn Franck, Ron- ald Charrier, and Leon Huard. Mr. Gordon was chosen class advisor.

Ronald Charrier and Leon Huard were co-captains with fifteen other boys repre- senting the seniors. Kathy Leakos led the cheer- leaders with two other seniors on the squad, jeanine Pelletier and Phyllis Smith. Basketball came and Donald Towle was chosen captain and the coach was Bud Lindquist.

Supervis- ing the great amount of work put into the LEVER were Harvard Knowles and Linda Scott as co-edi- tors, with many seniors contributing to the effort. During our three-year stay the class of 1954 was well represented on all the school functions and contributed much to the overall activities of the school.
