The next year we arrived at school with the superior feelings of Seniors. Our mem- bership was now 33. With Doc as our class advisor we quickly elected our class officers: President, john Godboutg Vice-President, Skip O'Shea: Secretary, Connie Windlep Treasurer, Helene Iarvaisg Student Council, Ethel Helgesen and Bradley Eaton. As usual, we got right into the swing of things and were active in all the school functions . Our Senior Supper proved to be one of the best suppers ever sponsored by a Senior class. Next we converted into door to door salesmen when we sold Christmas cards which also was a success. Early in December we presented our Senior Play which was: Too Young Too Old . The play was well presented under the supervision of Mr. John Warner. In December Ethel Helgesen was chosen as the Good Government Day Representative. Marcia Putnam was chosen as the D.A.R. Representative in February. February 9 we presented the Valentine Ball. Ethel Helgesen was chosen as Queen with Marcia Putnam as one of the attendants. We now have put down our impression about Sutton Memorial High and hope that our class will long be remembered. Joyce Hunt Beverly Carlson

Class Hisiory After the summer vacation 57 Freshmen nervously assembled together in the audi- torium to receive their assigned advisor. We were fortunate to have as our advisor Mrs. Maris. It was easily seen that John Cobiski, with his noticeable abilities of leadership, would be chosen President, as he later was when we held our elections. Other members of our class were elected to the following offices: Vice-President, Ronnie Annisp Sec- retary, Muriel Shenkerp Treasurer, Jackie Turnerg Student Council, Marcia Putnam and David Lavallee. As we had anticipated, our Freshman Initiation proved to be most enjoyable. Our class members were enthusiastic about participating in all functions. Now came the long awaited day that was to start us off on our money-making pro- ject for our Washington trip: The Sophomore Return Party. It proved to be a success with the members of our class making up the entertainment which was truthfully amatur- ish, but entertaining. The following year we were again in the auditorium awaiting the announcement of our classes. This year we weren't as excited as last year. Once again we elected the following officers: President, John Godboutg Vice-Presi- dent, Ronnie Annis: Secretary, Connie Windleg Treasurer, Helene Jarvais: Student Coun- cil, Marcia Putnam and Samuel Hutchings. Our first event was an opportunity to initiate the Frosh. As in our Freshman year we continued to be active in clubs and sports. At the 250 Anniversary of the town of Sutton, we operated a booth which helped our treasury and provided us with a wonderful time. CAnyone for milk or Greenspot ?j In the Spring we presented a dance with a chiche novelty-live chickens! ! ! ! The next year we assembled at Sutton High, holding the title of Juniors. Our ad- visor this year was Mr. Murdock. We soon elected the following officers to guide our class: President, John Godboutg Vice-President, Skip O'Shea: Secretary, Connie Windle, Treasurer, Helene Jarvaisp Stu- dent Council, Ethel Helgesen and Samuel Hutchings. As in previous years we joined school functions and, it might be added, that we did very well in them. After the basketball season we sponsored a new added attraction: we were the first class to produce a Junior Play. We were aided in our presentation of the play by Miss Dorothy Austin of the faculty. We were all very pleased with ourselves as we made almost two hundred dollars on this affair. Six members of our class were elected to the National Honor Society. They were: Ethel Helgesen, Marcia Putnam, Richard O'Shea, Helen Swart, Kathy Roy, and Connie Windle. At Graduation Richard O'Shea was awarded the D.A.R. History Award.
