Rose, D. Burnett, S. Olson, J. Rivers, P. Hallock. Eighth Grade On September 9, 1953 Rocket ’58 entered Pit 8 at V.H.S. under the command of President John Collette. His fellow space officers were: Vice-President Tommy Charbonneau, Secretary Gail Bristol, and Treasurer Robert Smith. We blasted off into space with Commander-in-Chief Miss Shirley Whalley, at the controls of our Master Space Ship. Descending into the spacelocks of Mercury, we left our ship in Pit No. 7 to attend a Christmas Dance. Having completed this social maneuver, we headed our craft toward Mars. After a short time of just cruising along in our Master ’58, we eased it into a pit at Vents to enjoy another dance. Much to our sorrow, our Commander-in-Chief, Miss Whalley, was assigned to another interplanatory position and our new Commander, Mr. Edward Watkins, took immediate control of our space crew. After blasting-off from Venus, we headed our ship to Pluto where our basketball cadets had several games with other space cadets. Our teams did not have much luck in these interplanatory events, but we gained good experience even if we won only one game. We cruised through a field of little meteors but steered our Rocket clear of any disasters. Our ship righted, we headed it toward graduation and coming events in our space time. Smooth sailing is expected and we shall soon be landing on earth to change space ships to a higher rank. By John Collette A daytime sighting squad of 34 Seventh Grade Rocketeers carefully mapped out their cruise into V.H.S. last September, to try to conquer subjects such as mathematics, English, science, geography, and spelling. Our extra-curricular activities included basketball, volleyball, baseball, and snowballs, with an occasional spitball in the air. Some of our rocketeers drifted into Drill Team and Band. We were active socially, too, putting on a grand Christinas party in which we had flying saucers i n the form of paper plates, and flying discs in the form of candy and dry ice. All pupils, teachers, and guests received gifts. Our class officers were: .Alice Jackman, president; Mary McNulla, vice-president; Brian O’Connor, secretory, and Paul Quinton, treasurer. Mrs. Vema Evarts was our faculty adviser. By Alice Jackman FRONT ROW: E. Blair, J. Burnett, B. Brown, M. Sauter, C. Gregory, A. Jackman, J. Norton , C. Tucker, E. Chamberlain, C. Brill, D. O’Connor.

On Septembers, 1953, a large, dizzy disc, manned by 40 rollicking teen-agers,revolved about Vergennes High and finally glided into Pit 11 to become known as the Junior Class. After several whirls in an enthusiastic class meeting, class officers were elected. Arthur Norton emerged as president; Jane Cushman, vice-president; Galen Norton, secretary, and WayneG anson, treasurer. Howard Grant and Marietta Willard were chosen as Student Council representatives. Messrs. William Sorton and Kay Davison became our faculty advisers. In athletics our class contributed Charlie Koss and Sid Baker in basketball and cross-country, ilubie Atkins and Tommy McCormick in basketball, Howard Grant in J.V. basketball, and Carl Easter and Harold flallock in cross-country. Among the girls, Mary Palmer, Beverly Cunningham, Pat Aubin, Galen Norton, and Peggy Cameron were basketball players. Socially we sailed right up front, with two Vic Dances, and a big Christmas Dance, while our Junior Prom looms in the near future. We boast some special discers, too, like Ben Douglass, Rena Charlebois, John Campbell, and Sharon Spade, who is editor of the LOG, and an art editor of the yearbook. We have co-pilots like Dewitt Clark, •• pete ” Bun-oughs, Betty Clodgo, and jean Chamberlain, and radio man, Tommy Beauregard. Space does not allow to tell of this great class. So now these discy Juniors will blast off for the Senior Haven in Pit 12. By Arthur Norton ores FRONT ROW: H. Jackson, M. Rose, S. Jorger, K. Russell, M. Younq, H. Danyow, B. Fleming, D. Sorrell, J.

Last fall on September 9, a second disc appeared near V.H.S. slightly smaller than the Junior one, but frisky in its maneuvers. This proved to be manned by none other than 45 Sophomores coming back from a long summer vacation on Venus. We landed in Pit No. 10 and looked with envy on Pit No. 11 where we hoped to be anotheryear, although among us were the usual number of shooting stars and falling meteors. As Co-captains on our trip were Mr. Ray Tucker and Miss Laura Demeritt, faculty advisers for our class. We elected the following class officers: president, Carl Peabody; vice-president, LymanClaik; secretary, Marjorie Veysey, and treasurer, Suzanne Jerger. We chose Richard Danyow and Catherine Russell to represent us on Student Council. Our class was very active in basketball with Geno Panton, Lee Veysey, Lyman Clark, Sid Danyow, John Burgey, Pat McNulla, and Carl Peabody playing on the J.V. squad. Sophomore girls playing basketball were Shirley LeBeau and Catherine Russell on the J.V. ’s and Marjorie Veysey on Girls’ Varsity Squad. On Cross-Country were Lee Veysey, individual State Champion, Donald Ledoux and Lyman Clark. Soon we’ll blast off, 47 strong, for Pit 11. By Carl Peabody Freshmen FRONT ROW: J. Jackson, D. Smith, C.

Sixty lively, enthusiastic young hopefuls entered the doors at V.H.S. last September 9, in the roll of Space Cadets on the rocket ship marked “ Vergennes High.’ Soon after their arrival, they banded themselves into what is now known as the Freshman Class, and elected class officers as follows: president, Paul Stanilonis; vice-president, Elisse Hallock;secretary, Joanne Chamberlain; and treasirer, Stanley Veysey. Stephen Knapp and Carol Bristol were chosen to represent their class in Student Council. Mrs. Elizabeth Nelson and Mrs. Jeanne Bodette became our faculty advisers to pilot us along the way. Our class gave to the school unsparingly of its ability in extra-cutTicular activities. As the school year draws to a close, we shall head our ship toward Pit 10 to become Sophomores.
