December 2, 1927. After this event I was brought back to Vergennes where I have lived and gone to school ever since. At the beginning of our Freshman year, we became full-fledged members of Vergennes High, after going through one of the most vigorous initiations any class has had to suffer. These four years have passed quickly. Maybe it was because we always had a good time. I liked by Sophomore year the best, mostly because of the scrap drive, which we won. 1 have no special hobbies but I like to draw occasionally. As for my likes, I prefer dancing, basketball, people with a swell sense of humor and movies. I dislike people with bad tempers, loudness and people who can’t take a joke. My favorite color is blue. I would like to go into Nurse’s Training, that is my first choice. 1 also would like to do interior decorating.

I was born in the beehive of the world, New York City. For a good share of my younger days I lived there and was educated. Later I moved to Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, Returning to New York City, I found life dull, so I took a trip to Vermont. Here I found my element. I would like to teach psychology or swimming. One of my most exciting experiences was winning the George Washington High School Science Medal as the most outstanding pupil in the science curriculum. My favorite subjects have been Chemistry and American history. My favorite hobbies include skiing, hunting, trapping and dancing. One of the ways to improve Vergennes High School would be a week dedicated to senior activities, i will to the coming Senior Class our zest for achievement.
