THE NORTHLAND WASI-IBURN, MAINE 1957 DEDICATIO We, the Northland Board of 1957, would like to dedicate our book to our English and French teacher and Senior class advisor, Mrs, Maxine Foater, in ap- preciation for the wonderful help and guidance she has given us at Washburn High School.

But let's not just look at the whole world, let's look at our own country and ask our- selves, What is happening? Why do two out of every three marriages end with a divorce? Why are two out of ten high school students going to be alcoholics in later life? Why are our mental institutions overcrowded? We, as high school students, are following the examples set by our parents and our children will follow us, lt just seems to be getting worse all the time, we, as free citizens, are taking our freedom for granted, Do we realize that when this yearbook goes to press, our young boys, just out of high schoo may be fighting in a Third World War? If this really happens, man, with his powerful weapons, is capable of ruining all of mankind. May we all, with serious minds, keep our eyes looking toward heaven and pray. Pray that soon, if possible, we will all have the peace of mind that comes only when the nations of the world have united in peace, I would like to sincerely thank Mrs. Bull for her untiring efforts and every member of the staff who have given so much of their time in making this yearbook possible. A 4 Y Sponsored by WASHBURN TRUST COMPANY MRS LEILA BULL - Advisor A SUBSIRIBE New DMINISTRATION SUPERINTENDENTS MESSAGE MR, WILLIAM C, FOSTER To the Class of 1957: Once again it is time to say goodbye to another Senior Class and to wish them well as they leave their Alma Mater and go forth to seek their careers in the years that lie before them. l would urge each one to continue his formal education if possible, andl would challenge you to take the experiences that are to be yours as you journey into the future and make of those experiences a worthy life. Undergraduates, college entrance examinations are becoming more difficult each year, The number of qualified students applying is one-third to one-half more than the colleges can accommodate. That means, if a pupil in high school plans on going to a standard college, he must be graduated well up among the honor students, Apply yourself now, and you will be prepared, MRS, VIRGINIA HUMPHREY School Department Secretary Sponsored by WASHBURN TRUST COMPANY S C T O U U D N E C N I T L 11 Seated: M.

The '56-'57 Student Council was the most active group in the High School and the members had to make a lot of decisions in making Washburn High School a better school for all. Some of the outstanding projects this year have been the making of a trophy case for the trophies won by various activity groups, the making of a schedule for noon hours, during which dancing, basketball, and ping-pong were all supervised by Council members, the revising of the Beaveretre Handbook, and the Career Day held on May 1, The members of the Student Council wish to thank our advisor, Principal Burkett, for all his guidance through a very success- ful year, BIKINI C A C N 0 D K Y E at.. a.I' If C A U L N E T S E R ttxx-.

' E C RTIS CAMPAIG It was suggested this year by Robert Sprague, representative for the Curtis Company, that, instead of having a movie on school time for all those who sold a subscription, we could have a contest between the boys and the girls. The loser was to put on an assembly and be slaves-for-a-day to the winner. Every- one was in favor of the idea and the campaign was on its way. At the close of the campaign, it was found that the boys had brought in just a few dollars more than the girls, but as the difference in the average sale was only four cents, the students voted to refrain from having the assembly and slave-for-a-day and have a movie on school time. The highest salesman was Gary Fox, and Gerald Dow was second. Two thousand dollars was brought in this year, netting our high school treasury approximately five hundred dollars, l would like to take this opportunity to thank my assistant, Bob Langley, and all the other students who helped in making this campaign the most, fx First - - ---------- GARY FOX Second - - - TRESA DONAVAN Third - - - - - GEARLD DOW Sponsored by TATHR STATE cw ,NMQ Q 1'sx1WWN , , ,vW,w,Q W x VSXW 'I ' my-Qx wtf ' XM W A www- ! 1 www wx U X, X 1, X XMMWV- M, V :J f-wg ?N,,,,X:,gy,5AM iv! 1 X wbgwdwmwwix w mb ' 1 , M M Y, Npwvl X34 ' v.

After many rusty squeaks and squeals, which were accumulated through the summer months, were ironed out we began planning and practicing some numbers for an assembly program. This was followed by more work in preparation for the Annual Spring Concert and Music Festival. We are very pleased with our band and hope they keep that music ringing, B l E G I N N E R S B A N t D ?,, 1 First row: R. Jardine, M, Carter, M, Cunningham, S. Dow, C. Cole, D. Plissey, M. Grant, P.

As we go to press with this write-up, we are all looking forward to participating in the annual Music Festival and the presentation of our Spring Concert. We were very fortunate in being able to obtain the services of Mr. Wilbur Shepard as our new music teacher to lead us in our singing endeavors.

Spooner, A, Spinney, Manager, The eager Beavers, under the very capable coaching of Clifford Burkett, ended the season with a 12 win, 6 lost record, It started with Easton, there. This game was close until the third quarter when three Beavers were lost by the foul-route and Easton went on to win. Robert Clayton and George Seward hit for sixteen and fif- teen points, respectively. The first win was over Mapleton, Robert Clayton scoring fifteen, and Robert Langley, thirteen. At Fort Fairfield the Beavers played one of their best games fbut not quite good enoughj Fort Tigers won. Seward hitting again for fifteen points. The third defeat was at the hands of the Caribou Vikings, Again Robert Langley showed his ability as a Sharp-shooter with sixteen points to his credit, while Robert Clayton and Robert Irving totaled fifteen each. Our next opponent was the Shiretowners, at Houlton. Clayton and Seward shared high scoring honors, thirteen points each. We lost again! The Beavers started rolling after this and racked up wins over Presque Isle, Ashland, A,C.l. and Fort Fairfield High scorers were Langley, twenty-oneg Irving, seventeen: Seward, two games, twenty-two and twenty-nine. The winning streak was broken, however, by Caribou, Wes Wilder kept us hoping till the end scoring twenty- four points. The biggest game of the season was our win over Houlton, Wilder netting twenty-five, and Seward, twenty-three. Wes's seventeen points helped, but it wasn't enough, as the Easton Bears, with their good ball-handling and shooting, defeated us once more. Mapleton and Ashland fell to the Beavers, as did Presque Isle after a good battle. Seward and Donovan sparked the team with twelve each, Our last regular season game ended as the Beavers rolled over A.C.l. 60-40. At the M play-offs at Fort Fairfield, the Beavers defeated Limestone in the semi-finals and went on to win in the finals over Ashland by a score of 54-49. High scorers were Langley, twenty-nineg Wilder, twenty-seveng Seward, twenty-five, Irving, twenty-oneg and Donovan, thirteen. At the Eastern Maine M tourney, we met our match in Lee Academy, who defeated us 61-57 in a thriller, High Scorer was Wes Wilder, who also made the Eastern Maine Tourney Second Team.

So away we sped back to the Motel, Because Mr. Burkett didn't want any of us near the Hotel. We rested well the rest of the night, Except when Bert and Irving got up to fight. We awoke the next morning very sleepy indeed, We jumped in the car and toward Bangor did speed. As we headed for the Bangor Civic Center, Wes declared if we didn't win he was going on a bender. At the end of the first quarter Washbum led, But at the final gun we wished we were dead. At the Bangor House the next day, We were all feeling very gay. Gum said, Let's shoot a little crap, I figured I had the boys right in my lap. Things went right for a little while, But then I lost my great big smile. Gum stood and cursed the dice, While Wes said he thought they were nice, After Wes rolled six naturals in a row, I decided it was time for me to go. I lost ten, Tarr thirteen, And when we left Rabbit's room, Our wallets were lean. Well, that's that, Tart said with a sigh, If mom finds out I know I'll die. We had eight hours which to kill, And not a cent in our till. We stayed and watched Easton play Saturday night. We saw them in their mighty flight. Right after the game we started out, All the boys began to shout, We were glad to were going back, Because most of us were broke flat. THE OLD COW Wes with a pocketful of money was sad, All he could say was, I won't be coming down next year, too bad, Bob Langley THE INVENTOR OF SNOWSHOVELS Who invented snowshovels? Nobody seems to know. I think the guy is hiding, His face he dares not show! He may be in the Arctic snow, Or on an island in the sea, But this one thing is very sure You'll never know his identity. He does not dare to show his face, Nor even tell his name. For he invented the snowshovel, Which brings him no great fame. But to some his product is useful, At him they don't get sore. They look at the bright side fMoneyQ Compliments of Jardine's Hardware and Paint Storel Roger Jardine BOBBY AND HIS RANKCARD Bobby is a little boy Who goes to Washbum High, Each time he gets his rankcard back You should hear him cry. His cry is not a cry of pain But a cry of fear, For he is thinking how he will feel After showing it to his daddy dear, After talking with his dad that night His cry turned to cries of pain, And Bobby promised faithfully l-Ie wouldn't get a D again. Guy Churchill When Bob Newman awoke that morning how could he have suspected that anything unusual would happen on such a beautiful day. He got up as usual, dressed, went downstairs, and ate his breakfast, and then started outdoors to play. As he neared the barn he saw some strange tracks and, having his curiosity aroused, decided to follow them. As he was rounding a corner of the barn, he saw the most unusual creature he had ever seen. As he turned to run and tell his uncle, he tripped over the pet cat, and being afraid that the creature would grab him, he at once jumped up and started for the house. When he told his uncle to come see the strang creature, his uncle took down his gun and fearing it was something dangerous, loaded it. When he got to the spot, and Bob anxiously cried, That's it, Uncle Harry began to laugh so hard that he had to lean against the barn for support, For there, calmly standing and munching a mouthful of grass, was Uncle I-Iarry's old cow, Loren Brooker B SPEECH-FRIGHT NIGHT with beating heart and sweating palms I sit and wait my tum, It seems as though the speakers fly And do the minutes burn. For after all, though large or small, This we would rather spurn. At last it comes. With clumsy feet I stumble to the front, I find my speech is leaving me Alone to bear the brunt Of students' tease and shaking knees, with no voice but a gmnt. The judgment day for me has come, But I must falter through. It seems like hours and hundreds too, While pupils holler Boo! And when it's done, I nearly run, This day l'll ever rue, I oy Knox DON'T ASK ME Don't ask me for a ball point pen, I don't own one. Or a light, QThat's a hot onelj Don't ask me for the time, Or ten pennies for a dime, Before our friendship ends in woe, I think perhaps it's best you know. What you need you better bring, Because I never have a thing. James Carter SKIING Yesterday when I was feeling at ease, I got brave and decided to try out my skiis. And as I started out toward the slope, I must have looked like a terrible dope. Then when I suddenly came to the hill, My eyes looked downward and my heart stood still. For at the bottom were trees and more trees, And a very small opening through which I was to squeeze. Sol pushed off, going faster and faster, And as l kept going, I came near disaster. My brand-new skiis became twisted and tangled, And my poor wrought-up nerves became very jangled. l sit here at home before the fireplace, With cuts and bruises all over my face, And here right beside me is one broken ski, To tell everyone, no more skiing for me. Janice Clark The snow lies deep and silent On the distant hill, The boughs are white and heavy The night is dark and still. The village sleeps in peacefulness Its spire reaches high, Into everlasting heavens In the starry studded sky. The earth waits still in slumber Under its snowy quilt, For the warm sun of springtime All cold hearts to melt, Yet night moves on so stealthily O'er all the countryside, In ice and snowy majesty Behind sunrise soon to hide, I-low lovingly he watches, On his majestic throne, O'er every existing thing Everything his own, Sally Flewelling ZIPPERS A zipper's a splendid inventions For closing up openings it can't be beat. Now here are some things I could mention On which zippers when zipped look especially neat. A gms skin, A man's shirt, A boy's pants they enhance. Overnight bags, Beggars' rags, A tot's ski suit that's always cute. Yes, a zipper's a splendid invention Except when it catches half-way. Then out come some words I can't mention Yes, the zipper is here to stay. Linda McBreairty DAY TO DAY The old cow contentedly nibbling grass, Doesn't think of what happens in the past. Neither does she worry about tomorrow, Or perhaps some coming sorrow. Humans, on the other hand, are quite different Always restless, never content. If people would concentrate only on today, Life would be much more bright and gay. When they finally start to realize, That in their hand the future never I-ies, And when they start to live one day at a time, Life suddenly takes on new rhyme, If we all would live from day to day, Peace of mind would be our pay. Sam Stoddard A SPECIAL SAND But yesterday I walked alone There is a special type of sand That many lives have wrought, This sand is made of fate and time And many lives have bought. It has outlined all the steps Of people now and past, The sand runs out at one time when lives have seen their last. For some the sands spell out a life Of fortune and of fame, But for some the grains run out Till life is but a game, The sands of time give out a life To every living soul, Some bom rich and some bom poor But all have but a goal. The sands of fate and time fore'er Seep through the hourglass, And leaves behind for other grains A toiling, thronging mass. Carolyn Nickerson SEASONS which season do you like best of all: Winter, spring, summer, or fall? Hot, cold, warm, or cool, Each season is either and sometimes two. when you are sitting beneath the trees, And listening to the gentle breeze, I bet you stop and say, 'This is the best of all the days. Along comes the colorful fall, The harvest, witches, goblins and all. September, October and November, Are days you will forever remember. Here comes winter dressed in white, A coat of ice makes a pretty sight. Toboggans, skates, sleds and skis, All put us at the greatest of ease. Which season do you like best of all: Winter, spring, summer, or fall? Hot, cold, warm, or cool, Each season is either and sometimes two. Ruth Sperrey TEENAGE ROMANCE A solitary rose was there The day I walked with you, That rose - symbol of our love Perfect, beautiful and true, And tears I tried to hide, For when I walked on our path I saw the rose had died. But though our love has passed away That rose brings hope to me, For where the dead rose once did lay Another rose will be. Mary Jane Crouse THESE AWFUL FEMALES Girls, Girls, Girls Some boys think they're nice, But in my life I've yet to see One worthy of looking at twice. For instance, take the other day when my friend explained to me, That he had got me a date that night with a girl, pretty as could be. He said we should go skating At the pond out by my place, But one look at her proved to me I'd never seen such an awful face. I-Ier eyes were crossed, her legs were bowed Her nose long as could be, She stood about six feet two, And homely as could be, I've decided now, to let alone The entire feminine bunch, I don't know why I'm doing this I guess it's just a hunch. Darrell McKay WHAT A CAR Here is a car that will take to the air, And will beat all draggers to the Northem Maine Fair. It's streamlined and beautiful blue, And is easy on gas, amazingly true. Man, it rides like a Caddy, And will beat any laddie. For behind the wheel is a man, Yours truly, Dave Rand. Hudson, it says on the nameplate, It's one of the best in the Mainestate. The speed makes that car of 1ay's, Look like a glorified one-horse sbay. Even poor Buddy will not admit, That this car of mine has plenty of git I blew a tire while we were neck and neck And he claimed my car was just an old wreck One day I looked in the mirror and saw something coming, I thought it was a plane by the way it was humming I was doing 110, the fastest I'd been, when a Merc. zipped by, I knew it was the end Dive Rn nrl LITERARY HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY Jane Walker left her house to go to school on that cold December moming. She was feeling very sad. The reason for her sadness was the Christmas play. Jane had been chosen to play the main part, She remembered how happy she had been when her teacher told her the good news. But her smile clouded when the teacher said, Of course, you will have to have a pretty white dress if you want to look like an Angel. When Jane asked her mother for a dress that night, she had replied, Jane, dear, I'd love to get you a dress but I just haven't got the money. Can't you wear your yellow one? No, Jane couldn't wear her yellow one. It was the wrong color and faded from many washings. Jane knew her mother had a hard time without her adding to her mother's worry. Jane's father had died when Jane was only five, now she was nine. Jane was scuffing along in the snow when suddenly she stopped. There in the window of a store was a dress that would be just perfect for the play. It was white nylon with lots of ruffles on it. She went over to the store and pressed her nose up against the window. She stood there spellbound for a long while, Then she broke herself away and hurried on to school. All day she thought about the dress, knowing she'd never have it, She wanted to break down and cry every time she thought about it. 'Oh why, she thought, cou1dn't we be rich and then mama could have pretty clothes and wouldn't have to work and I could have the dress. The next morning she was going to school when she noticed an envelope in the snow. She picked it up, brushed off the snow, and read the neatly typed words across the front of the envelope. It said, Party Shop. Why that, Jane said to herself, is where that pretty dress is. Jane opened the envelope and peeked inside, There was a big roll of money. At first she couldn't believe her eyes, then she said, Gee, if I took out some of this, I could buy my dress. After all, finders are keepers. But then Jane thought, If I wore the dress in the play and played the part of an angel, I'd be cheating and God would certainly punish me. Jane had been taught to say her prayers and to worship God, So after arguing with herself, she finally decided to return the money. when she entered the store, a man was raging at a young messenger boy. He was saying, You meatheadl Do you realize what you have done? You lost the envelope that had 3700.64 in it, I gave it to you to take to the bank and what do you do but go and lose it. The boy was very pale and trying hard to say he was sorry. Jane walked up to the man, I think you are talking about this, she said as she handed him the fat envelope l-Ie said, Yes, oh yesl Where did you get it little girl? l found it out in the snow, she said, You're an angel, he said as he counted the money, 'Every penny of it is here. You can have any dress you want in the store, Jane said, Oh really! Gee, I want the pretty one in the window. As Jane said her part in the play, in the beautiful white dress, she really felt worthy of being an angel. l'll never do anything dishonest, she vowed to herself, not when I know that honesty is the best policy. Linda Henderson PENCILS This is an object needed every day Pencils are faithful to us until they break, Whether it's for work or whether it's for play. Then, of course, they're put through the gate, It okays its master. the hand. They're on their way once more, Guiding it through the word land. writing words galore. Pencils only do one thing, write, Pencils are faithful servants to us, And sometimes that's a right. Put through jobs, you never hear them fuss. Pencils are all different colors, Think of your pencil as a friend, Reds, blues, blacks, purples, and yellows. Faithful to you until the end. Dolores Thibodeou Sept. Oct. Nov. Dec. Ian. Feb.

Some did Swedish weaving, painting, shell craft, bead weaving, sewing, stuffed animals and pipe cleaner pins, Our advisors have been very good to us and given us all the help we could ask for. So, for all the members, I will say, Thank you, Mrs, Smith and Mrs. Crouse, we really appreciate it. ...ec xxx' X 'N-, M A if if.. 'X is NS Advisors MRS, CROUSE MRS.

Their advisor is Mrs, Sandra Evankovich. The club put out three issues which had as themes: Winter, St. Patrick's Day, and Spring. When planning the paper, we chose editors for such things as art, literature, sports, and feature articles. All the editors got together and planned the theme, articles, art, and other things which were in the paper. When all were planned, the different articles were assigned to the persons in the club. The typing was done by girls in the typing class in high school, who put it in blue type and in columns to look more like a newspaper, A sincere 'Thank you' goes to these girls and our capable advisor, Mrs. Evankovlch Advisor MRS.

But with faithful and hard practice we were able to come up with several snappy cheers and a few songs. We were able to make all the away games, accompanied by our coach, Mrs. Leila Bull. In all, we had a good season, even if we did have to work pretty hard at times. Thank you, Mrs. Bull, for your help. I, BAKER, B, BROWN, W, CUNNINGHAM, L MAYNARD, P, RUSSELL, I.

The date was set and the tournament was under way. They say there is nothing like starting a tournament off with a bang and well it was. The first game, which started at nine-thirty, featured the teams of Billy Churchill and Tommy Howe. lt wasn't until after the game that the winner was announced. The boys had to be called back on the floor and told that the score had been changed and we had a new winner. With seconds remaining, Milford Berube took a shot with his team behind by one point and failed to connect, but Willie Drost got the rebound and put the ball in for two points and a victory, but here is where the reverse took place. The time had run out after Milford shot, but the buzzer failed to sound, so Wil1ie's basket did not count. The final score was Churchill 28g Howe 27. Both teams were headed by their captains in the scoring department, Churchill had 19, Howe 14. The- second game at ten-thirty was a different story as Humphrey's team whipped Sands' 38 to 16. This was one of the few games that was one-sided. Wendell headed his team with 28 and ten of these were from the foul line. He was helped very much by a newcomer, Stuart Woodman, who had six points. Bert scored 11 for a losing cause. The aftemoon session was started by Maynard and Howe facing each other for the first time. Tommy's team was too much for Jackson and were able to get themselves their first victory of the day, Howe 35, Maynard 23. Steve Marr and Tommy Howe supplied the scoring punch for the victory, Tommy with 21 and Steve 12. Jackson scored 14 for the losers. The fourth game was between Humphrey and Churchill. lt wasn't until after a hard-fought battle that Wen- de1l's team was able to come out on top by a score of 36 to 33. Both Humphrey and Churchill fouled out in the last quarter. Once again Wendell and Stuart shared the scoring honors for the winners: Wendell 26, Stuart 10. Bill scored 23 for the losers. Continued, page 72 . . -sq.. 1- www LITERARY THE MYSTERIOUS THIEF Mr. Thompson was a queer man about forty years of age. In his study he had two safes which couldn't be taken apart except for a dent in the side of the safe in which he kept his money. He had Sl, 000 in his safe. He always was afraid that a thief would get in and steal the money. In the other safe he kept his important papers. One night he reversed the safes because the people knew where his money safe was and he wanted to fool them. He opened the safe containing the papers, removed them and took them to his room leaving the safe open. while he was in his room he was so busy that he didn't notice a storm had come up. Suddenly the lights went out and the back door rattled. Mr. Thompson thought surely a thief had entered. He went to his study. He stopped. He thought he heard footsteps. He listened. The footsteps stopped, He proceeded a little and stopped again. There they were again. This time they seemed nearer. He mshed to the phone. He heard footsteps of someone running as if trying to get away quickly. The lights came on. He looked toward the safe. It was open, Empty! He picked up the receiver and called the police, who came right away to investigate. Mr. Thompson told them that 61, 000 had been taken. The man did not believe him because he had led the police on wild goose chases before and they thought this was one. Mr. Thompson still insisted the money had been taken. He said, l even have papers to prove it. He went to the safe, turned the dial, and the door opened. Mr. Thompson gasped and fainted. There was the money. The footsteps did not belong to a thief. I-le had heard his own footsteps. Then the policemen said, Another wild goose chasel' Timothy Knox WHAT A SCARE Very late one summer night as I was walking home from my girl friend's, I happened to hear a very funny noise ln the bushes. So I stopped and looked but couldn't seem to see much, so I went on. But I didn't take any more than a couple of steps when the noise became louder and scared me so badly, I started mnning. I ran so fast I thought my legs would go flying off any minute. But somehow I managed to control them and slowed down a bit. The more I ran, the louder the noise became. I was so scared I slipped on a big rock that was stuck in the ground and down I went. Slowly I climbed to my feet and hobbled up the road. A car came along and asked me if I wanted a ride. It was my cousin, so I climbed in. I told him the whole story and he chuckled and-said, Why should you be scared, it was only a few frogs and crickets in the swamp. So we both laughed so hard the tears rolled down our cheeks. Deanna Stoddard CAPTURED IN A DREAM One night I was babysitting for the family across the road from our house. I got seated comfortably and started reading a book. All of a sudden I saw someone at the window and started to yell, but I thought I might frighten the children. The man beckoned me to open the door and, being so frightened, I obeyed him. As I opened the door, he pointed a gun at me. He said. 0.K., get back in that room and pull down all the shades. I hesitated for a minute, but he said roughly, 'You do as I say unless you would like to chew on a bullet. He sat down. Every- thing was still. The silence seemed to make me braver by the minute. So I said, 'what do you want here anyway? You have no right to order me around like this. He stared at me for a while, then he said, Look, sister, you have a nerve, do you know who I am? I am Philip Moon, the escaped convict, so you'd better pipe down. After a while we heard steps on the walk outside. I thought it must be Jim and Lois fthe parentsj. I started screaming for help, but Philip Moon didn't seem to like the idea. I-Ie looked at me cruelly then started to pull the trigger. I yelled still louder. Suddenly I woke up to find Jim and Lois staring at me. Lois said worriedly, Marilyn, what's the matter, what are you hollering for? what's wrong with you? Phew, what a dream and we all started laughing. Marilyn Grant LITERARY LUCY'S TROUBLES This story is about Lucy, a little girl with dark hair and a dozen boy friends, who was in the second grade. Lucy got up this Monday morning and what a day it was outside. Down below zero and the wind was blowing very hard, the snow was blowing all over everywhere. Poor Lucyl She dreaded even to think of walking down the driveway to the road to catch the bus. Poor Lucy just about froze when she was just thinking about it, Come on, Lucy, hurry up and get ready for school, before I have to get the hardwood yardstick. And you know what happens when it appears on the scene. I guess Lucy knew what it meant, for she hurried upstairs to dress. She put on the cutest little black jumper she had ever wom. fToday she has an eye on a new boyfriend., After getting her jumper on, she brushed her short dark hair and put on her shoes and socks. She rushed downstairs all out of breath and called for mother to come and see if she would pass. But, Oh dearl lt is a good thing she did, because her jumper was buttoned wrong, her shoes were on the wrong feet, and her hair was parted on the wrong side. It's a good thing Mother has patience. She tidied her up and Lucy decided to venture out, for she saw the bus was waiting. I-Ier older brother would go first, then Lucy could follow in his tracks. Lucy followed a few steps, then decided to take a short-cut over the snowbankl Well, it happened. Poor Lucy got stuck in the snow! Her older brother and the bus driver had to shovel her out. It seemed that Lucy had had her share of troubles for one day. J ill Fox THE KILL There! He had done it. He had killed. Perspiring and with a sick feeling in his stomach, he looked down at the limp form lying at his feet. It was awful, this blood on his hands, the feeling of changing a live thing to a dead one. He hoped God wouldn't take this the wrong way. It had to be done. Feeling the warm stickiness of the blood on his fingers, he looked around for a place to wash them. Down in the slowly moving river would be best. lt would leave no telltale spots of blood. Tuming, the youth ran to the river bank and carefully washed away all marks of blood. Dipping his hands in the cold water, he splashed his face and neck, rubbing them until they were red. For a long time he sat and watched the river, Oh, how he had hated doing this, yet there must be a first time for everything. Other people had done it, and lived through it, so must he. But why had he had to use an ax? Why hadn't he just taken the neck and twisted it, quickly and efficiently? He knew why. He hadn't the courage to touch that neck. Besides, he wasn't sure how to grab it and twist it so that it broke immediately. Slowly he arose. Saying good-by to the river, he climbed the dirt bank and walked to where the body lay, so limp and lifeless. Carefully he picked it up and moved toward the house that stood a short distance away. Stand- ing outside the door, he wondered if he ought to take it into the building or not. Carefully he opened the screen door and called, Here's the turkey you wanted killed, Mom. What should l do with it? Phyllis Russell Junior High Tournament - continued from page 70 This victory meant that Wendell's team would be in the finals. The last game featured Maynard's and Sands' teams. It was a high-scoring affair with Bert's team winning 38-36. Jackson scored 18 for his team, while the scoring on the winning team was more evenly divided. John Churchill had 115 Norris Nickerson had 6, and Bert was high scorer with 14. Then came the championship game between Tommy Howe'-s team and Wendell Humphrey's, This was not a well-played game because it was too lopsided. Tommy's team ran awav with the game and the championship. Final score: 58-26. Wendell scored 22 points for his team, but it wasn't enough. Steve Marr had a good game, scoring 10 points, and Tommy had by far his best game of the season and tournament by scoring 41 points. If an all-toumament team were to be selected, the seven men following would easily make it: Wendell Hum- phrey, Tommy Howe, Billy Churchill, Steve Marr, Jackson Maynard, Bert Sands, and Iohn Churchill. Honorable mention would go to Stuart Woodman, Malcolm Nickerson, and Freddy Lovely, Thi lcd hnbovlll Are YAVLOI-MADi TAYLOR PUILISNING CXPANY DALlAS.
