LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE BEFORE MEN Dlarhew QW AJ K7 snmr Jounsnunv Acnnsmv sr. Jonnsbuw, vermont 1 7 THE LAMP 1957 -2- THE LAMP 1957 DEDICATION For his countless hours of patient instruction, which have given inspiration to many students, and which have made our band and orchestra internationally known, the Class of 1957 proudly dedicates its issue of The Lamp to J. LEO MESSIER ., 3 - THE LAMP 1957 To the Members of the Class of 1957: As you complete this phase of your formal education I can only Wish for each of you success in the plans which you have been making, You will find that you have much to add to what you have learned here: initiative to start your plans, perseverance to carry them out: new responsibilities Without the promise of afternoon study hall or work to be met. As you start out to undertake these new steps it is my earnest feeling that the verses of the School Song are ones you can use no matter where your paths may lead: Face the world and make it better. We have just begun. Carry forth the shield of courage. Face the rising sun. May you long remember and cherish your days here and return often to renew old friendships and add your support to that of all those who have gone before you. Sincerely, ELWIN H.

The members of the Council consist of a representative from each home- room. class officers, captain of the Monitors' Club, and members-at-large from each class. The President of the Council is elected each spring by the Student Body. Among the most important accomplishments of the Student Council this past year are amending two rules in the Constitution, sending four delegates to the State Student Council in November, revoking the Charter of the Outing Club, and adopting a new resolution of a Winter Carnival Committee with the understanding that a new Outing Club can be formed separately in the future with certain restrictions. The Council has sponsored the Magazine Drive and turned the Amateur Show over to Mr. Ryan. They have tried to impress the Student Body that such things as Love Life and loitering in the halls are unnecessary. The Council has also set up a committee to make arrangements for Student Council members to receive pins. Along with these and other accomplishments, the Council has had a busy but successful year to remember. C-43C THE LAMP 1957 lsr Row: J. Bolton. W. Collins, E. Weeks, B. Naatz, M. Hoar. 2nd Row: C.

MOHZ'fOPS, Cfub The Monitors' Club is a group of back-boned students whom you might see occasionally Walking the corridors with a cheery sly smile on their face: and on their clothes a beaming green and White button, which says MONITOR? Hats off! to a fine group of students who keep St. J. A. on the climb up the ladder of respect. The Monitors' Club is an organization opened only for those students who are Monitors. They are elected each semester by the Student Body. A student must present a petition to the Headmaster for his recommendations. The petition must then be signed by at least fifteen students. From the Head- master the petition goes to the Student Council for acceptance. Prom the can- didates chosen, the student body votes on ten. A Monitor has a high regard for his school and surroundings, and tries his best to help the students respect the rules and regulations of their school. This year's Monitors did a tremendous job and the students would like to say Thank you., Monitors for keeping us in line. Best Wishes and good luck to next year's Monitors. ,44-..

Apparently their activities are very engrossing, because we never receive any news items about their adventures in the field of science. In the past the Science Club has been very active. The group has done scientific experiments and there has always been some question as to whether or not the burning of North Hall was faulty wiring. The Science Club, however, has applied for a renewal of their charter. No one is quite sure what future activities will take place in the Club, but we are sure that next year the Science Club will be much more active and familiar to the student body. -45- THE LAMP 1957 lst Row: P.

Light and Shadow Club This year the Light and Shadow Club has not been too active, as they have been without much of the necessary equipment. Despite this handicap, they took several pictures and some movies of the Winter Carnival Activities. Also the Photo Staff took and developed many in- formals for the Lamp. Many on the staff submitted snapshots to local con- tests. Next year they plan to make improvements on the dark room and to cover more school activities. The Photo Club is open to anyone who enjoys any phase of photography. Ciood luck to all the Staff and their plans for next year. THE LAMP 1957 Outing Cfub The word outing speaks for itself. One great project of the Outing Club this year was the running of the Vlfinter Carnival, which was bigger and better than ever. The theme of the carnival was 'ADisneyland. The carnival began Thursday noon with the announcement of the King and Queen and their court. Thursday afternoon at Brantview, obstacle races, snowshoe races, and cross-country events took place. At the same time, stu- dents worked hard on their snow sculptures in front of Colby Hall. Thurs- day evening everyone enjoyed a victorious basketball game and then went to a Swedish Sock Dance at Fuller Hall, Where Stuart McDougal was crowned Hcupidf' On Friday, the carnival moved up to the Lyndonville Outing Club ski slopes, where an all-day ski meet was held. There Michael Ann Utton and Michael Smith won the top skiing honors. Friday evening the dramatic club, under the direction of Mrs. Prank Ryan, presented Mrs. McThing, and did an excellent job. Saturday the skating events were held at the Summer Street Rink and it was a pleasure to see so many students participating in them. Saturday night the carnival came to a climax at the State Armory, where King Clark Holland and Queen Brenda Naatz were crowned and reigned over the Sno-Ball. ...4-7...

Drfamatics Late in the fall, under the able supervision of Mrs. Frank Ryan, the Dramatic Club began practice for the annual presentation of the Winter Carni- val. This year the choice was Mrs McThing. Our Thespians proved to have quite a bit of ability, and everyone enjoyed the presentation very much. During Chapel period they also presented scenes from Our Wilder- ness, Member of the Wedding, and 'AThe Barretts of Wimpole Street. These scenes provided a most interesting, and enjoyable Chapel period. We would like to wish the Dramatic Club continued success in depict- ing dramatic literature. 1 50 .. THE LAMP 1957 ls: Row: A.

This year, as in previous years, the Lamp staff has tried to the best of its ability to present a year book filled with fond memories.

Cheerleaders As everyone knows, the cheerleaders have a lot to do with supporting the backbone of our school activities-Spirit, All will surely agree that 'the cheerleaders have been a great mainstay in holding us together at basketball games and football games. School Spirit is very important, and it is a hard job to keep it at its high- est point all the time. The cheerleaders have done much for the school and could have been successful only through your co-operation. A round of applause for the Cheerleaders, please! THE LAMP 1957 Glee Club The Glee Club, under the able direction of Mr. Green, enjoyed another successful year. Their first concert was the annual Christmas Concert at the Academy, with a varied repertoire. After the Christmas recess, Work was started on the Joint Concert with Littleton High School, which was held on March 8 and 9. Even though this was their only Joint Concert this year, it proved to be a huge success. On May 5, 6, and 7, eight members of the Clee Club Went to the ,All- State Music Festival in Burlington. These members also sang at Commence- ment Exercises. The Commencement Concert, June 7, was the last concert of the year. As usual this was the climax of the year for the Glee Club. Next year Mr. Green hopes to have at least one over-night trip which will be something new and is looked forward to with great anticipation by all of the members. Best of luck to the Cilee Club in '58Ill THE LAMP 1957 Freshman Singers The 1956-1957 Freshman Singers enjoyed a very fine year under the able direction of Mr. Green. This year there are fifty-one girls in the group. Freshman Singers sang in the Christmas Concert and again in the joint concert with Littleton High School. The group also participated in the Commence- ment Concert. ... 58 - THE LAMP 1957 PRESIDENT Dorothy Remick VICE PRESIDENT Lee Hackett TREASURER Jean Wright Urchesrra SECRETARY Madeleine Piper LIBRARIANS Brenda Benoit Wealtha Collins MANAGERS James Robie Danny Gilchrist The orchestra enjoyed another successful year under the able direction of Mr. Messier. Their first appearance was the Christmas Concert on Decem- ber 17. ln the month of January three members were sent from the orchestra to take part in the International Music Festival in Mount Royal, Quebec. Two of these same members also participated in the All-State Music Festival in Bur- lington, Vermont, May 5, 6, and 7. The Orchestra played a very successful concert in Northfield the second week of May, and the following week Northfield traveled to St. Johnsbury for 3 l'9IUI'1'1 COHCCIT. To wind up their activities the members of the orchestra contributed their part to make the annual Commencement Concert a huge success as usual. Several of the graduating seniors were soloists for the various graduation activi- ties. A chosen few underclassmen, with the help of Mr. Messier, provided the graduation music for the Seniors. ESQ? THE LAMP 1957 Band Under the excellent direction of Mr. Messier, the band began its prac- tices in the summer for the first performance of the season at the Shrine Football Game in Manchester, New Hampshire. The band made a great showing and has been invited back again next August. November found band students preparing for their concert in December with Morrisville Peoples Academy. Those who attended the concert felt that it was well worth the hard work that preceded it. For this concert and the others to follow, Mr. Messier divided the band into two sections: Marching Band and Concert Band. On April 4, 5. and 6, the band made a three-day trip to Canada, where we were invited to play for Parliament in Cttawa. Thursday through Saturday were spent sight-seeing in the Royal Cana- dian Mint and Parliament Buildings. The most popular shopping store was the Green Dragon???? April l3, the band had a very enjoyable joint concert at Knowlton, Quebec. Knowlton came to St. Johnsbury the following weekend. At Graduation the band gave a memorable concert, which was a fitting salute to the graduates of 1957. -50.. THE LAMP 1957 Girls J Ariz letic Assocz'atz'on With the loss of the gym, the Girls' Athletic Association has suffered a definite set back. During the early fall playing softball on Brantview Field kept the members busy after school two nights each week. By holding a few dancing lessons once a week the girls who wished to learn to bop and Ujitter- bug were satisfied. A surprisingly large turnout was the result of the efforts of a few talented dancers. When cold weather forced them inside, they started playing basketball at the Armory, Many girls showed interest in this sport and played with pick- up teams consisting of the members present. A play day was arranged with Mt. St. Joseph Academy, where the girls played a game of volleyball and then a game of basketball. Both schools displayed much enthusiasm. The girls made up a team and challenged the varsity basketball team to a game of basket- ball. The boys, even though handicapped by one hand tied behind their back and a full skirt, managed to win by a very large margin. Plans for activities on weekends have been made, and we hope that it will be possible to carry them out. A bicycle hike was scheduled for fall, but an unexpected snowfall cancelled it until more favorable weather. The idea is being considered of a scheduled trail ride for those members who enjoy horse- back riding. The main purpose of the G. A. A. is to provide sports for the girls and to promote sportsmanship among them at the same time. This year seems to be one of the best for the club, thanks to all the fine co-operation of the girls who enjoy participating in sports. ...61.i THE LAMP 1957 lsr Row: G. XVhitehill, J. Bowles, R.

Varsity Club members serve the school and students every day through- out the school year. Daily, one of the members gives up a study hall to work in the office.

The movie was enjoyed by all and the Dance on the Cureen was a great success. This club is an organization open to all students who have either taken Spanish or who are currently taking the subject. Most of the meetings were involved with the learning of the cus- toms and other interesting items about Spanish speaking nations. L63.. THE LAMP 1957 ationof Honor Society The National Honor Society was established at the Academy in 1935. Only Seniors are eligible and they must be in the first quarter of their class. Members must also have attended the Academy for at least two years. The students are elected members by the faculty according to regulations made by the National Honor Society. Members show excellence in scholastic ability, school participation, lead- ership. and the ability to maintain high moral and personal standards at all times. lt is indeed an honor to be a part of this organization. T641 4 THE LAMP 1957 Varsity Football Squad The 1956 Academy gridsters, under the capable tutelage of Coach Jim Burlingame, established a fine record of four victories and four defeats. New- port: B. F. A., of St. Albans: L. I.: and Bishops Academy of Lennoxville, Que., were the victims of the Hilltoppers. The traditional L. I. game was a thriller throughout and ended in an 18-6 victory for the Hilltoppers. This year our co-captains, Clark Holland and William Brunelle, were selected to play in the Shrine All-star game. The class of 1957 wants to Wish Coach Burlingame and the boys the best of luck in the coming season. St. J.- 6 Montpelier-20 St. J.-13 Spaulding-18 St. J.-12 Cathedral-26 St. J.-14 B. F.

THE LAMP 1957 Varsity Basketball The overall Won-lost record for the current year was not overwhelming- ly good but a study of the team development during the season portends better results next season. Our boys started out by losing the first seven games in a row. ' By then they had digested the new system used by Coach Burlingame and managed to win five out of the remaining nine games, ln the process they reversed deci- sions on four teams that had beaten them earlier in the year. By the end of the season Coach Burlingame had developed a Well-knit unit which will lose only one man by graduation. Next year should be a suc- cessful one in Wins and losses, but We must consider this year an equal success. because of the great improvement made during the year. Vvle will miss this years captain. Richard Paddleford, who contributed a great deal to the late- season success. and we congratulate Clay Pole, captain-elect for the 1957458 season. -67- TRW? THE LAMP 1957 Track At the date of writing the track team has engaged in three meets, tying one and losing the others by close margins. The first meet against UVM freshmen was lost by a score of 74-48, the second, with Cathedral ended in an unusual tie 61-61 and the third, versus Bur- lington found us on the short side by a 67-55 score. In two meets our men have scored more first place wins than the oppon- ents, but the lack of depth in the squad has led to the losing of meets on the sec- ond and third places. This is a serious fault and we hope that another season will see more boys engage in track for only in this way can the Academy hope to produce an all around team. There is one meet left before the district meet and that is with Lyndon- ville on May 20. Although we may not end the year with any wins in dual meets we do expect to be Well represented in the state finals this year. M634 THE LAMP 1957 . Vi Basfcetbafl If you have ever been a side-line spectator of a Jayvee basketball game, you must admit that it didn't stack up as the best in the world from that point of view. But coaches look for something else in Jayvee teams, They sure are mighty essential to the future of the Varsity team. This year the team had five wins and nine defeats. They had pretty good height, but lacked shooting ability. Nevertheless, the boys put their hearts into every one of the games and they all showed promise of developing into good varsity material. Good luck, boys, and don't forget We're looking to you in the next couple of years to put our basketball team on top. ..69i THE LAMP 1957 Football Squad This year the Freshman Football team was under the supervision of Rev. James Glasser, Who once again volunteered his services as coach of the younger group. Coach Glasser has done a fine job during the past two years and Coach Burlingame expressed tremendous pleasure in having a man of his ability to get the freshmen started off on the right foot. All-in-all, the Hilltoppers gave pretty fair accounts of themselves in the games they played. With a little more practice in blocking and tackling, they showed much improvement in their future games, .1701 Dear Dia SEPTEMBER Well, here I am again. I was just looking at your old dusty pages, Diary, and I thought I would glance through and revive old memories. It made me stop and think about how quickly the days at St. J. A. pass and all the wonderful times I've had. Hey! I'm get- ting sentimental! You know how September is. There is general chaos throughout the school. Freshmen just stand and stare with their mouth open. Sophomores laugh as they pass Freshmen, pretending that they have attended the Academy since Calvin Coolidge did, proud that they know where every room is, what stairs to go up and what stairs 'to go down, and other general information. Juniors are quite happy over the fact that they are at last upperclassmen and al- most at the top. Seniors, of course, are sitting on top of the world and from this lofty height they glare down with greedy eyes on the innocent and naive Frosh, l 12 strong. There were other new faces in the school, too. Mr. Burlingame, Mr. Silipo, Miss Darcy, Mr. Harrison, Miss Hubbard, Miss Sielian, and Mrs. Holmes joined the ranks of the faculty. Football is always a good way to start off the school year and so we did. Montpelier outplayed us in our first game, 20-6. This did not dampen our spirits, however, Diary. Our next game was with Spaulding and we showed a vast improvement. This time we lost only 18-13. By the last football game in Septem- ber, we were feeling pretty con- fident on the gridiron. Cathe- dral gave us a very exciting game. For a while it looked as if we might win! At the end of the first quarter, we had 6 points. At the end of the THE LAMP 1957 I ry. second quarter, we had 6 points and they had 6 points. At the end of the third quarter we were tied l2-l2. And then it happened. They won! 26-l2! These football games are ex- hausting, Diary, but I love to go to them. See you next month! OCTOBER Well, Diary, here we are right in the midst of a Very ex- citing football season. Al- though we suffered defeat in several games, our team certain- ly upset B. F. A. on October 6-14-6. The big factor in this game was our hard-hitting line, led by Co-captains Bill Brunelle and Clark Holland. The backfield proved its pro- ficiency as we easily downed Newport 24-0 on October 13. Providing added fun, the cheer- leaders kept everyone shouting at the pep rallies before each of our home games. Coinciding with the weekly battles on the gridiron, the band split for its own contest. The honors for marching and play- ing, as well as the trophy, were carried off by Dottie Remick's White Band. Of course, Diary, the most colossal news for October con- cerns the 52nd Annual Game with Lyndon Institute. We won!! The team and practi- cally the entire student body traveled to Lyndonville to bring home our second victory in a row. Let's hope that next year we can make it our third: the World War II Memorial Trophy is beautiful, isn't it?? Hallowe'en is loads of fun every year, Diary. The tradi- tional faculty skits were not presented this year, but the huge bonfire at Brantview Field was almost as much fun. Then we all saw a movie in Fuller Hall and attended a special party in 1711 the dining room. Just to be novel, we had two bonfires this year. Wonder who witnessed the one on October 30?? NOVEMBER There didn't seem to be much action this month. I'm glad though! It gave me a chance to do some studying which, needless to say, helped my marks which were dragging bottom! On the third we had our last game of the season with Bish- ops. We upset them at Rug- by, 6-l. This is the second time in nine years that the Hill- toppers have beaten the Cana- dians at their own game. In Lyndonville the Press Conference at LTC was the scene of a great deal of activity for all students who had a nose for news! I went, and I had a glorious time. Miss Hubbard and Mrs. Lanphere provided transportation and good humor for the trip. A couple of the students became so engrossed in the scenery at LTC that they almost missed the boat. That's neither here nor there. The very same night a fried chicken dinner was served to the football squad and the coaches in recognition of their endeav- ors on the gridiron. After the belts had expanded to the last notch, it was announced that Ron Lowell and Jim Nelson will be co-captains of the foot- ball team next year. Here's some good news! The Senior Class elected Jean Wright as their Good Citizen- ship Girl. Jean's parents must be very proud of her. She has done a lot for the school and she certainly deserved this hon- or more than anyone I know! Got to toddle along! Bye for now! DECEMBER Lady Luck has certainly for- gotten us at the Academy, Dear Diary. It's not that we're poor sports: we're far from that, but five games - five games!! we've lost, right in a row. Instead of Hoopsters, we're being dubbed Bloopsters, and still the situation looks hopeless. My word, what a gloomy start to Basketball Sea- son!! Vacation has finally arrived and none too soon, My feet are itching to don the old slacks and make for the Wide, open spaces. And no more HOME- WORK for two glorious weeks. But I must admit to you, Dear Diary, that school is nothing short of fabulous, and Ishall rather miss it. Christmas Vacation time is also the time for our annual Christmas Concert, and this year's was tremendous. An aura of inspiration lent itself to the occasion, and even Mr. Green was pleased. Unfortunately the concert ended all too soon, both for us and our audience: but the best part of vacation lay ahead. The old adage that Time Flies is certainly true. and Jan- uary 2 was upon me all too soon. So begins the New Year. full of bright promises of happy times and things accomplished. See you in January. JANUARY Well, here we are in 1957 with exciting events ahead of us. Getting things off to a good start, we had three seniors as finalists in the National Merit Scholarship. They were Ken McCormick, Mary Anne Ash- ton, and Mary Lou Olcutt. We feel very lucky and proud of them, and I guess we have good reason to be. Basketball has been among our many activities. We play- THE LAMP 1957 ed two games: one with Or- leans, which we lost 68-47, and the second with Hardwick, win- ning the J. V. game 40-31, and the Varsity 50-48. As it was our first win, we were all very happy. Eight of our students attend- ed the Fourth International Concert Festival in the town of Mount Royal, Quebec. These were orchestra members Dottie Remick, Richard Hanney, and Brenda Benoit: and band mem- bers Jim McKinly, Lee Hackett, Dan Clark, Harriet Johnson, and Danny Gilchrist. To be chosen Concertmistress is a great honor, and Dottie Remick has made us very proud of her. She was chosen Con- certmistress for three selections. But when good things come to an end there is always some- thing to take their place, and this month we had our ever-lov- ing MID-YEARS to stagger through. Fortunately, j u s t about everyone passed. Following the tests, th e Sophomore Hop was our next big event. Everyone had a very gay time dancing and eat- ing the goodies which were provided. This Hop will go down in Academy history as a success, I am sure. Ican see February creeping up, so I will close for this month. Au revoir! FEBRUARY The activities for the busy month of February opened in the Trade School Gym with a basketball game with Lyndon Institute. Our basketball team traveled to Newport on the 13th. Then came the Winter Car- nival, the 14th, 15th, and 16th. Thursday afternoon we had snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and worked on our snow sculptures. In the eve- ..72... ning we all attended the Derby- St. Jay game and then the Swedish Sock Dance in the Din- ing Hall, where Cupid was crowned. Guess who it was?- The one and only, Stuart Mc- Dougal! Friday we all had loads 'of fun at Lyndonville, skiing and tobogganing. The ones who survived attended t h e play Mrs. McThing that evening, which was just tops. The Dramatic Club deserves a lot of credit for their good work. Saturday morning we rose bright and early and showed our talent at ice skating. That evening the Sno-ball was attended by many, and we saw our Queen and King, Brenda Naatz a n d Clark Holland. crowned. T h e i r attendants: Marilyn True, Coriene Mer- chant, Richard Paddleford, and Lee Hackett were also honored. At this time we heard the re- sults of the Carnival, with the Sophomores winning the sculp- ture contest: and the Seniors, the carnival. Congratulations! On the eighteenth, we all at- tended the game with Montpel- ier, and with Trade School on the 22nd. After the latter game there was an informal dance in the Dining Hall. The next evening we enjoyed a movie in Fuller Hall, Walk East on Beacon Street. On the 26th, our final bas- ketball game was played against Lyndon Teachers College J. V.'s You can now see that we were kept busy this month: but oh! It was fun! MARCH I don't mind telling you I'm exhausted. I have never seen a year so filled with school activ- ities as this one has been. We closed out our basketball season with L. I.: and, with our speed and defense, we overtook them 63-50. Social events are also in order and the Littleton Glee Club joint concert was a grand suc- cess. Everyone remarked about it, Diary, and I even heard someone say that it was the best Cilee Club concert that the Academy had ever presented. Six-foot ZH Clay Pole was announced to be the captain of next year's basketball team. I know that he will do a swell job: and, with Mr. Burlin- game's techniques, the team should be quite successful. While l'm passing out hon- ors, Diary, I might as well tell you about Brenda Naatz. You know she was selected as the Vermont Maple Queen. Every- one was happy for Brenda. She received quite a bit of attention on the local scene, statewise and even across the nation-with a dill pickle in her mouth. She even received a proposal of mar- riage from a boy living in Kan- sas! Well, that's the way the dock remblesl The other day I wasn't look- ing where I was going and acci- dentally ran into several very excited students. After I had picked up my books and the dust had settled, I saw that the students were band members and so I completely forgot the incident. You see band mem- bers are being excused for all their misdeeds and surprising behavior for a while. Over night our musicians have be- come traveling celebrities. By request of the Canadian govern- ment, our Academy Band is to play before the Parliament in April. I'll tell you more about that next month, though. Our one-time perennial pow- er on the track is going to re- ceive full attention this spring. Coach Burlingame is going to work with the track team so that once more they may THE LAMP 1957 achieve great prestige on the cinder-covered track. Well, I have to runl I'll see you next month with a lot more news. APRIL Remember my telling you about the band going to Can- ada? Well they did! Andl guess they had a wonderful time because they talk continu- ously about it. Click Holland and Bill Bru- nelle have been selected to repre- sent our school on the Vermont All-State team that will play in the 1957 Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl football classic. I hope that Ican go in August. It gives you a small but definite thrill to look out on the grid- iron and see your schoolmates playing in a game that means so much. You know all the game proceeds goes to the Shriner's Hospital for Crippled Children. The theme for the game is They run, that others may walk. While we are on the category of benefits, let's talk about the way the Juniors proved them- selves such good sports after losing the drive for Tom Han- son. A Date for Mimi was well presented and everyone en- joyed it. I never realized that the Junior Class had so much talent. The Student presented its first scoop in a long time, Diary. The Valedictorian of the Senior class is Marjorie Larson with a 94.3 average. Mary Ashton and Kenneth McCormick tied for the Salutatorian with 93.6 averages. I wish that it were my name I was scrawling on your tattered pages. I guess there is something to that studying after all! The track season has started: our first meet was with Cathe- dral, and ended in a tie. Aage Bjerring broke a school record, .-.731 however, and that made every- one extremely happy even if it was only a school record. He did the l80-yard low-hurdles in 21.5 seconds. Toodleoo now! MAY Oh! Spring . . . I have to ad- mit it certainly is hard to put your mind on books and the re- maining days of school when you would rather think of things like cabbages and kings! Well, I've been enjoying my last days here attending track meets, Cwhat no baseball?j concerts and what not. On the fourth, U. V. M. outclassed us 76-46. We took three first places and tied for another. Aage Bjerring set a new Acad- emy record by Winning the 100-yard dash in 10.2 sec- onds-only one-tenth of a sec- ond off the state record! Con- gratulations, Aage! Several of the prominent mu- sicians of the Academy attended the All-State Music Festival in Burlington. Apparently every- one had a good time because every now and then I hear one of them orating about their es- capades. Dottie Remick, Danny Clark, and Lee Hackett did themselves proud, as well as the school, by holding honorary chairs in the All-State Band and Orchestra while in Burlington. . Still with music, I attended the joint concert with North- field Orchestra and despite their need for violins, basses, French horns, and flutes they sounded very nice. The Juniors were very busy this month! First the Student Council elections and then the Junior Prom. The Student Council election is a very long story, but to make it short, Virginia Kumpf has broken tradition! For the first time in Academy history we have a female president! Good luck, Ginger, and prove it can be done! One of the great social events of the year was held May 17 in the mezzanine of Fuller Hall. Holding the Junior Prom in the mezzanine is a tradition started THE LAMP 1957 by the Class of 1957--in case no one remembers. The Prom was loads of fun and will add to our memory book. JUNE Well, Diary, it is time to put you back on the shelf for the summer. It has been a lot of -74-, fun this year and,I'll never for- get it. Finals, graduation ex- ercises, and general chaos reign- ed over the last few days of school. I am beginning to miss the Senior class already and wish that they had not graduat- ed. But all good things must come to an end and so farewell to the class of 1957. THE LAMP 1957 Senior Elections Did most for St. J. A. Did St. J.
