As sophomores we returned to Spaulding happy to be back. We now knew our way around and had to smile to see the Freshmen lost and be- wildered. We held our first school dance as a class on October 11, 1951. It was put on by our committee of Edith Lawson, Doug Burnham, Jim Corologos, Bob French, Dan Hooker, Silvio Nativi, Jean Abbiati, Elaine Gilbert, Dave Biggs, Marcia Lawson, Jill Morgan, and Bob Tomasi. The additions to the varsity cheer- ing squad were Elaine Gilbert and Irene Fontana. We were also proud to see Sandy Simpson and Joan Plot- ner varsity majorettes. One of the biggest thrills during the year was the selection of our class ring. Shirley Langevin, Bob Blow, Andy Eastman, Bob Weeks, Doug Burnham, Carole Rizzi, Bob French, Jim Coro- logos, and Edith Lawson were the students picked from each home room to represent the class. We chose a in the fall Bob French, Edith Lawson, and Jim Corolo- gos did a fine job. Missing is Doug Burnham. ring with a blue stone and a vertical band through the middle. On the gold band is a small emblem which has SHS in the middle surrounded by the words Spaulding High School, Barre, Vt. On each side of the stones are the numerals 1954. Actors in our Sophomore class play, “Introducing Debbie” were Sandy Simp- son, Jean Abbiati, Lois Montague, Mary Albinola, John Dawson, Dan Yett, Ro- land Batchelder, Marlene Heuschele, Pat Culver, and Joan Pruneau. Mana- gers were Norman Belanger, Pat Byrns, Marcia Legru, and Winnifred Hill. Mr. Cain directed the play. We used a new system for select- ing class officers. We had a nominat- ing committee consisting of last year's class officers and three members of the class. Nominating three for each office, they chose the candidates for the election. The results were Bob French, President; Jim Corologos, Vice-President; Edith Lawson, Secre- tary, and Doug Burnham, Treasurer. as sophs.

Our junior year brings hard work and fun. Our Junior year started off well when we elected Allan Eisenwinter as President; Bob Tomasi as Vice-President; Winnifred Hillas Secretary, and Elaine Howe as Treasurer to head our class. A nominating committee chose various people for offices, and the final vote was put to the class. The nom- inating committee was Elaine Howe, Allan Eisenwinter, Silvio Nativi, Roger Rivard, Raymond Brassard, Bob French, Jim Coro- logos, and Edith Lawson. The championship home room basketball team was 114-A, a Junior home room. This team consisted of David Biggs, Jim Coro- logos, Bob Blow, Raymond Brassard, Roger Brault, and Richard Corrigan. Majorettes chosen this year from our class were Marilyn Cozzi, Maureen Smith, and Lise Monty. May 15, 1953 - at last! Our big dance, the Junior Prom. On January 9, 1953, an assembly was held, and we elected David Biggs, James Corologos, James Dwyer .Mar- ilyn Maisonneuve, Sandra Simpson, and Emily Pearlstein as our committee who worked along with the class officers to make the dance a success. The theme, “Some En- chanted Evening,” was presented with an island as a center-piece on which was built a thatched hut, surrounded by trees. So the center pieces on the tables, which were placed in a circle around the floor, were palm trees with a native girl or monkey. On the back wall there was strung a net with flowers and fish scattered over it. The center baskets represented a king and queen while the side baskets were filled with flowers. The delightful music was by the UVM Catamounts. Again the Juniors were Champs when on February 5, they won the Class Play Trophy for their piay “Balcony Scene.” The cast consisted of Charles Belknap, Robert Keene, Jack Dawson, Norine Atherton, Sandy Simp- son, Pat Byrns, Ed Barslow, and Chy Dean. The Juniors are home room champs! At the head of our class were E. Howe, B. Tomasi, W. Hill, and A. Eisenwinter.
