-1 . .T JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY - E started our Hrst year at Senior High on September 9, 1936. Everything was W new and bewildering. - Our Sophomore election resulted as follows: President, Richard Dubord, Vice President, Geraldine Farnham, Secre- tary, Frances Jobing Treasurer, Charles Gilmang Executive Committee, Carl Ware, Betty Whitney and Lomar Turmel. Joe Hachey and Robert Carey represented the class in varsity football and bas- ketball. In the annual High School play, Elizabeth Beale capably acted the title role of Miss Millions. Her sophomore supporters in the cast included John Moses, William Barteaux, and Virginia Sahagian. The play was, as always, a great success. Yvette Boisvert and Frances Jobin were elected cheerleaders for the following yea1'. Our class greatly enjoyed the use of the new wing. On September 8, 1937, we climbed the steps of dear old Waterville High for the second year. The following officers were chosen: President, Lomar Turmelg Vice President, Reed Lott, Secretary, Fred Cooper, Treasurer, Alyre Ouellette, Executive Committee, Madeline Waters, Glendon McCorri- son, Kenneth Winslow. To get more to 'bank and to secure a higher percentage, the Panther News con- ducted a banking contest. Fred Cooper, the banker who won, receives his Panther News as a gift, the prize of the contest. This yea1 s play, Aunt Abby Answers an Ad, found Yvette Boisvert, John Moses, Elizabeth Beale and Richard Dubord giving superb performances. Waterville High has added three sports to its list. These are hockey, girls' soft- ball, and golf. Our class is well represented in each. The one-act play contest, held at Lawrence High School, in Fairfield, was practi- cally a Junior production. Waterville High won the trophy. The cast of six included James Belyea, John Moses, Anne Folsom, and Richard Dubord, all Juniors. Now, with much anticipation, we look forward to entering our last year at Water- ville Senior High School. 26

Miss Freeman, faculty adviser, gives unsparingly of her time and ability to make the yearbook a success. After the Christmas vacation, the editors and the business manager started to work on the Senior picture. From that time, slowly but surely, the Nautilus has been shaping itself. We wish to particularly mention the works of two students, Natalie Rollins and George Stevens. The portrait sketches for the Dedication and Faculty cuts were done by these fine artists. We also express an appreciation to Mr. Sprague for his assist- ance in taking the pictures. This year's staff has followed the principles started by last year's, because the yearbook was very well received by everyone. The Board has done its best, and hopes that the students will enjoy this issue. H 28
