Eagerly we started our high school life as freshmen, taking part in the various activ¬ ities available to us. Many were initiated into the Latin Club. Sports were particularly popular among our group. For the first time in the history of Suffield High School, we had three freshman girls selected to be on the cheering squad for the following year. In the fall we sponsored a record hop with Gordie Baker from WSPR as master of ceremonies. Robert Clark and Lynne Taylor were representatives to the Junior Red Cross Training Center which was to be held in August of 1955, but because of the disastrous flood was cancelled. Bob was also selected to attend Laurel Music Camp. When we returned as sophomores in the fall, we ordered our class rings. It was an excit¬ ing day for all of us when we received them in December. To make some money for the class, we decided to sell beanies and hockey caps. As everyone was thinking of the winter weather, the hockey caps outsold the beanies. A group called the Caroliers, under the direction of Mrs. Tanguay, was started, and a community carol sing was held in the front of Suffield Academy. Many members of our class participated in these activities. Ruth Washburn and Mary Anne Rucienski were selected to attend Laurel Music Camp during the summer. After the summer vacation we found ourselves amidst school activities as juniors. We were sorry to have Mr. McAlister leave, but we welcomed our new superintendent, Dr. William Farris. October was a busy month for us. Our first project was selling Christmas cards. Then came the trip to the U.N. and the trip to Sturbridge Village the following week. Both proved to be very interesting and worthwhile. Soon afterwards the Junior Dramatic Club put on a play in assembly called “Wildcat Willie Carves the Turkey.” During the Thanksgiving season we sjxjnsored a dance, “Harvest Festival.” Mr. Tanguay was master of ceremonies. .A comedy skit in which some of the faculty members participated added to the enjoyment of the evening. After Christmas, we started planning for our Junior Prom, “Stairway to the Stars.” Ken¬ neth Jacobus was elected general chairman. With the cooperation of all the committees, the Prom was a big success and everyone had a wonderful time. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the queen—Ruth Washburn, and her attendants—Pat Kennedy, Joan Sutkaitis, Genevieve Markowski, and Marjorie Jackson. A buffet dinner was held after the dance. The Manhattans provided the music. Lynne Taylor, Marilyn Conley, Bill Cannon, and Robert Clark were chosen for Laurel Girls State and Nutmeg Boys’ State. Terry Young was selected to ser ' e as Governor’s Hostess at the Eastern States Exposition in the fall. The last day of school was the day which we had been looking forward to for a long time. Mr. Brown announced the Senior Patrol members at the assembly. It was also announced that Lynne Taylor and Robert Clark had been chosen for the National Honor Society. The closing of the assembly meant we were no longer juniors but seniors. Well, our senior year had finally come with all its worries and pleasures. We were fortunate to be in one room to make it easier to hold class meetings. They were under the direction of William Cannon who was elected president for the fourth year in succession. The first assembly gave us an opportunity to march in while the student body honored us by standing. The Student Council sponsored the first assembly with its president Bill Cannon welcoming the student body. This last year brought many changes to our school. With longer periods, five required subjects, a new junior high building, and redecoration of the old build¬ ing, one could not help being proud to be part of the student body of Suffield High School. Although the Russian Satellite “Sputnik” was going around the world, classes still kept on as usual. The Sagitta staff started working immediately under the direction of Lynne Taylor—Editor, and our class advisors—Mr. and Mrs. Morse. The Problems of Democracy Class conducted the first Community Chest drive which prov ' ed to be ' a success. Mar ’ .Anne Rucienski and Robert Clark were chosen to play in the All-State Band at the Bushnell Memorial in Hartford. Tlie magazine drive was very successful. Our class beat all previous records in magazine sales for the school. Maiy .Anne Rucienski was top salesman with Phil Kita second, and Elaine Sp aulding third. Eleanor Rose won the mov ' ie camera. The National Honor Society is always an important event for the seniors. Our class had ten memben inducted, now making a total of twelve members. Lynne Taylor represented Suffield in the district “I Speak for Democracy” contest. Having won this, she took part in the state competition. Many members of our class participated in the V ariety Show. Our class also put on a play called “The Great Joanne.” Our Washington trip, class banquet, and graduation were great ev ents which brought this happy year to a close. 23 CLASS WILL We the class of 1958, being of sound mind and body, do hereby bequeath our last will and testament. To the administration we leave our sincere thoughts of appreciation. To the faculty we leave our heartfelt gratitude for their capable instructions in everything we so greatly needed.

Larry Potter leaves his mumblings to anyone who can translate them. Dick Ramsdell leaves for Texas. Charles Rogalla leaves his shyness to Gary Sweatland.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, We have hereunto affixed our hand to this our last will and testament at Suffield High School, Suffield, Connecticut this thirteenth day of June, A.D. 1958. SIGNED, SEALED, .AND DELIVERED The class of 1958 24 CLASS PROPHECY Wham! Guess that’s the paper boy throwing the newspaper at the door again. What s this? O. O. P. S. Launch Sufnick in Suffield, Connecticut. The launching of a satellite has been sp)onsored by the 0 Connor, Orr, Finder, and Scott Company of engineers and businessmen. The engineer in charge of the project is Robert Clark. His assistant, Kenneth Jacobus, helped design it. The animal inside was prepared for the trip by veterinarian Thomas Mikuszewski. So far everything has gone according to schedule. The men attribute their success to the courses they took at the local high school. This picture looks familiar. local department store will have as its special consultants, Miss Genevieve Markowski, noted hair stylist, and Miss Joan Sutkaitis, fashion consultant. The Society for the Pres ervation of Secretaries recently elected its officers for the coming season. They are: President, Miss Peggy Phelon; Vice-President, Miss Terry Young; Secre¬ tary, Miss June Lemini; Treasurer, Miss Peggy Elcock. Miss Ruth Washburn, also a member of the society, provided the entertainment by playing a medley of recent hits. She liked play¬ ing the piano during her high school days, too. A new motion picture has just been released by the Allen LaGrange Studios, based on the life story of the jet pilot, Arthur Romano. Patricia March is in charge of costumes and Marilyn Conley is executive secretary. That noted saleswoman for World-Wide Airlines, Elaine Spaulding, reported having sold a ticket to Europe to Lynne Taylor and Mary Anne Rucienski. Lynne is on a diplomatic mission for the government and Mary Anne is going as an exchange teacher. Both will be well taken care of by that gracious hostess, Patty Kennedy. The Potter Publishing Company has released an anthology of short stories by the renowned author, Joyce Wilcox. Phil Kita is in charge of sales. With Phil’s selling ability they ought to make quite a profit. Let’s see what’s new in the local news. President of the National Council of Presidents of Presidential Councils, William Cannon, will speak to the presidents of the clubs and classes of the local school on the subject of how to be better presidents. Joan Paczosa has been requested to return to the high school to plan the coming Pep Rally. They never seemed to be the same after she left. The new church in town was dedicated last night. It was recently completed by the Bednaz Construction Company. Richard Ramsdell is Sunday School director; Dorothy Thomas is in charge of the adult religious groups; and the choir is under the direction of Priscilla Lord. Noted singers in the choir are Jean Morgan and Marjorie Jackson. The Nichols National Bank last night awarded a plaque to the depositor who had the largest account, Charles Rogalla, a local businessman. Many employees of the bank were present, including Beatrice Kemp, Deanna Norrie, and Patricia DeGray. Morty Merrell announces the grand opening of his ultra-modem garage. His chief attend¬ ants are Lincoln McBride and Joseph Craig. His quick and efficient repairs on the town fire engine made it possible for firemen to reach the Lang residence and rescue Gordan from a smouldering cellar. It was reported that Gordan had been experimenting with one of his newly invented chemicals. Joan Ganley wishes to urge all parents to enroll their children now in her summer camp. The personnel of the camp are veteran campers themselves. Eleanor Rose is in charge of the infirmary and Helen Baldyga is head swimming director. That’s about all the news there is in today’s paper. Wonder what will be in the next issue? 25 Most Musical Most Businesslike Quietest Cutest CLASS Lynne Taylor Ruth Washburn Peggy Elcock Lynne Taylor M. A.
