DAVI5 Chairman of me Boaro March 8, 1968 Dear Echo: Your letter asking for my recollections has been received. Thanks for the chance to think back to the happy, fruitful days at Spaulding, and particularly of graduation. Fifty years! Is it possible? The calen- dar says yes. As you know, the 1918 Echo was the first in Spaulding. (So also was the Sentinel of 1918.) Prior to that time the custom was to have a class picture, which in those days was hung in Room D at the old school. I do not know who first had the idea of a book. I do know that the idea caught on fast, and enthusiasm grew by leaps and bounds. We wanted something that each of us could keep for our own. Something to look at and to read. Some- thing that would keep alive the memories of classmates through the years. Something of a history, too, of the four years in school. As the editors stated in the Foreword, their aim has been to substitute a monument to the good-fellowship which we have enjoyed at Spaulding. With the hope that our friendships and deeds of High School days will always be remem- bered . So you will see that the 1918 Echo is divided into two main sections. One includes an individual page of the record, interests and future hopes of each member, with a photograph. The other is an historical record of the class as a whole during our four years of high school. The editors who produced the first Echo were: Laurence C. Campbell, of Barre; Doris Eastman, of Barre; Max A. Holden, now of Memphis, Tennessee; Vivien K. Marrion, now Mrs. Vivien Murray, of Manchester, Connecticut; Hildreth F. Martin, now of New York City; Kathleen E. 0 Leary, of Barre; Jessie I. Pithie, now of Norwood, Massachusetts; Vera M. Watson, now Mrs. Guy Harrington, of Belchertown, Massachusetts; and Clayton A. Wilkin, now of West Springfield, Massachusetts. All are living except Doris Eastman. No record remains of the editors1 meetings, the financing, or the division of labor among the editors; and memories, alas, are only vague. We would know without a record that the business end of the enterprise was the province of Laurence Campbell. But we can say that the idea of the Echo as a class record has been justified over and over again during these fifty years. And all of us, as do also members of later classes, turn again and again to the Echo to renew the memory of those happy and fruitful years. Sincerely yours, DCD emc No number of words, no camera yet invented, could ever capture the excitement, the color, the emotion that has welled up within us. These four years have been a pro- logue to life, a fleeting moment which is sometimes difficult for even the human heart to grasp. THESE ARE THE PEOPLE. The players un- masked. Who are they? What did they do? What were they like? We can’t tell you. We can’t show you. We can only invite you to use your imagination. A SCHOLAR, In 1938 Clyde Greenleaf Fussell joined the faculty of Spaulding High School, where he taught English until 1947. During this time he founded the Dramatics Club, which continues to be one of our most active organizations. The Class of 1968 has had an especially lively interest in dramatics and is grateful for his early encouragement of high school actors. For several years Dr. Fussell was superintendent of the Washington-Orange School District, returning to Barre as the chief school administrator in 1952. Dur- ing these years he continued his advanced studies, receiving the Doctor of Philoso- phy degree from the University of Connecticut. His doctoral dissertation on Ver- mont school laws was published by the Vermont Historical Society of which he is a member. Dr. Fussell has been an important member of the community. He has been active in church, civic, and school affairs. Under his direction our new Spaulding High School was erected, the old Spaulding building was renovated, the entire school program has been improved and expanded, and plans have been made for the es- tablishment of an area vocational school, soon to be erected. Dr. Clyde G. Fussell has certainly played one of the major roles in Our Town. We salute a gentleman, a scholar, and a triend. DR. AND MRS. FUSSELL DR.

SYLVIA NYHAGEN English 18 LUCILLE LEGAULT English When you share fifty minutes a day with a teacher for an entire school year, you develop an awareness of him as an individual. Our teachers have made significant impact upon us, and we recall each one, not just in terms of the subjects he taught, but also as an inseparable part of our learning. Our teachers have accomplished far more than merely teaching courses: they have personified the values and personal qualities which we have remembered on these pages. These are some of the important things we have noticed. Now, see what you recall. EUGENE R. SPIESS English English Teachers Instill VIRGINIA BROWN English TOMMY J. WALZ English DOROTHY S.

But mainly they were ex- ceptional teachers because of their ability to motivate students. I thank them for their persistence and admire 40 Major Contribution To Economic Growth In Our Town WARREN A.

Our secretaries go through reams of paper work every week, keep tabs on more than twelve hundred people, answer the telephone, admin- ister first-aid, and still they have time for a pleas- ant hello and a smile. We really appreciate their kindness and their personal attention to each one of us. 43 The Maintenance Staff Serves These are the people who are the first to arrive in the morning and the last to leave at night. They do a great job of keeping our school presentable, in spite of all the little favors we ask of them. Maybe we don’t know each one’s name, but we are well- acquainted with their smiles. They’re some ot the nicest peo- ple at Spaulding.

BAGLEY STEVEN BARDEN BARBARA BARNETT THOMAS CHARLES BARNETT MICHAEL J. BARTON We are the Seniors. We are the ones who have created this book. It’s a tradition at Spaulding to make a yearbook, and we’re sure that every class since 1918 is glad that this tradition has been continued. We can just imagine how proud we'll t e fifty years from now when we take out Our Echo 1968 and reminisce about our high school days. The Class of 1918 is rightly proud of their book; so proud, in fact, that we thought we'd sprinkle a little of the lirst Echo through this fiftieth edition. We've also included a few historical pictures just to add to the story. But. before we go on, we want you all to understand something. Something im- portant to us, something we feel is important for everyone to know . . . some- thing we learned from Our Town, the senior play we experienced this year. It's so pretty an idea that we’ve tried to say it poetically. It goes something like this . . . 50 MICHAEL P.

Our lives aren't paintings—staid and still and never-varying. We try to frame a moving thing, and it is hard. But we do try. We surround our days with our memories which also change color, sometimes fading with age. When our days are new, they are beautiful. When they are old, they are still beautiful. If they fade, we can brighten them with re- membering. LINDA S. BLAISDELL KENNETH D. BLONDIN 52 STEPHEN R. BLONDIN JEAN EMILIA BOLADO LARRY JAY BOLDUC Memory is a wonderful dust cloth.

CARPENTER MICHAEL STEVEN CALCAGNI Then Freedom sternly said: I shun No strife or pang beneath the sun, When human rights are staked and won. In the 1918 edition of Our Echo these lines paid tribute to Lor- raine A. Densmore, who, with George Bartlett and Jesse Sibley, left Spaulding in his junior year to join the Army. Now, fifty years later, these words are appropriate again as we salute Law- rence Bell, a member of our class who has gone to serve his coun- try in Vietnam. We also salute the members of our class who will join the Armed Services soon after graduation. LINDA M.

It Was Written By Thornton Wilder A few brief notes, thank you professor-unfortunately our lime is limited. David Emery listens for a cue to start sound effects. Mary Duff and Juliane Frick read a program backstage. 190 Nice town y'know what I mean. I'm the brightest girl in school for my age. I have a wonderful memory. 191 Keep yourself wrapped up. 192 V J They’re waitin’. They’re waitin’ for something that they feel is cornin'. Something im- portant and great. Aren’t they waitin’ for the eternal part in them to come out clear? I hate to supervise when a young person is taken. . . . everybody knows that something is eternal. And it ain't houses, and it ain't names, and it ain't earthy and it ain't even the stars . . . everybody knows in their bones that something is eternal, and that something has to do with human beings . . . There's something way down deep that's eternal about every human being. -Thornton Wilder We Remember Thomas Wild November 14, 1949-December 30, 1969 193 Echo Business Staff Row I: Arlene Johnston, Hildred Whitcomb, Marilyn Couillard.

Continuous Supporting Advertisers 1918-1968 Trow and Holden Wasn’t Life Awful... And Wonderful! —Thornton Wilder’s Our Town This is Our Echo 1968. While we were creating it, life was awful . . . and wonder- ful. We remember all of the mistakes, the pictures we didn’t take that we should have (Where can we find a picture of him that we can fake?), the pictures we almost lost (Look in the still life envelope.), and the things we almost forgot (What do you mean we didn't leave any pages for the Student Council!) We remember the awful and wonderful days of high school. The awful days (the loss to Rice in basketball, to Burlington in football and baseball, and all the other bad days) were hard to endure, but the wonderful days (The Mannequins' Demise going to Rhode Island, The Mikado, Class Day, and finally, Graduation) made it all worthwhile. Life is awful at times, but we, the members of the Class of 1968, will have many happy memories to remind us that life is wonderful, too. We take great pride in publishing the fiftieth edition of Our Echo. Here we have tried to capture in words and photographs the memories that have made our days at Spaulding wonderful. 235 Let us not look Back in anger Nor forward in Fear, but around us In awareness -James Thurber We thank . . . Our advisers Miss Jean Watson and Mr. Warren Williams Our professional photographer Mr. Robert Morris Our loyal advertisers Dr. Pendo, Mr. Burdett. the faculty and staff Our enthusiastic student body Mr. George Grimard The Times-Argus The Vermont Development Department We especially thank the following people who helped us with our fiftieth anniversary theme: The Barre Granite Association and Mr. Charles Zanleoni, The Barre Historical Society.
