The time was September 1954, when a great change came at VHS. A quiet, peaceful place became a noisy, capacity-filled building. A group of teen-agers had gathered in a farther comer of the study hall. It was the Junior Class!--with Miss DeMeritt as Faculty Advisor; Carl Peabody, President; Shirley LeBeau, Vice President; Dorothy Sorrell, Secretary and Suzanna Jerger, Treasurer. Our class may boast such cross-country stars as the time-breaking Lee Veysey, followed by D. Ledoux, R. Vincent, P. McNulla, and numbers of others excellent in sports. Socially inclined, we have sponsored small dances, a big Christmas Dance, and the Junior Prom this year. Five of our members made the Square Dance Team! Set your sun dial for the Seniors of 1956! We'U be there! Carl Peabody Sophomore Class Front row: D. Smith, C. Hazelton, T. Dusablon, N. Mitchell, J. Evans, M. Dike, M. Donnelly, S. Chamber-lain, M. Fisher, B. Jackson, J. Thompson, M.

We furnished two cross-country stars, Richard Ashley and Albert Robarge; five girl Varsity players, E. Hallock, J. Chamberlain, N. Mitchell, S. Bodette, and J.

September againi It was 1954 when a group of wild, young teen-agers entered old Vergennes High. A few wise words from Principal Pearl, and we settled down to become the Freshman Class. We elected James Parkinson, President; John Collette, Vice President; Linda Clark, Secretary and David Lilly, Treasurer; Mr. Davison was our Class Advisor. Ours is a class with much athletic ability and one to be heard from in the future. Watch out for the Sophomores of 1956! James Parkinson
