JOHN MAHNKER Johnie Johnie is the guy with the car, the funny books, and the wit. If that’s what makes him so popular, I guess we’ll have to try it! Johnie helps in the office during school and works in the Shell Station during his spare hours after school. As you can see, he is pretty busy, especially with Newbury as his usual nightly destination. I wonder what the attraction is? Johnie was also manager of the boys’ team this year and did a splendid job. We’ll all miss you next year, Johnie. As yet it is hard to tell just what Johnie plans to do, but we wish him the best of luck! Johnie has what it takes! GEORGE MARTIN George Ding, dong — that’s the school bell. Well, if it keeps on ringing for about five minutes, you know it’s George who's pulling the rope! George is a basketball Marooner” who helped in many a plight this year. He especially enjoys wearing those leather soled shoes with the iron taps — they echo all over the building. George has a habit of arguing with the teachers. They’ll have to find someone new next year! What ever your future plans may be, George, we wish you the best of luck, you he-man, you! — Twenty-two —

NANCY GOULD Nan Rat-atat-tat, rhythmic Gould is at it again, that is typing at her slow speed of 60 words per minute plus no mistakes. Gould is the man catcher of the Senior Class; can’t figure out how she does it! Nan is a whiz at book- keeping, too. Ever see such a neat balance sheet? She was forward on the basketball team this year — remember that winning shot, Gould. She plans to take up a Medical Secretary’s course at Becker Junior College and we wish her all kinds of luck! ELIZABETH GUAY Belly Betty is the quiet girl in the Senior Class. She didn’t go in for athletics, but she did a wonderful job as manager of the girls’ bas- ketball team. We sometimes wonder how she has time to work in Vigent’s store and be around all her men at the same time. What does your ring stand for, Betty — good luck”? Betty is attractive and has shining black hair. We know she’ll make a swell beautician! Best of luck! GEORGE HALL George George Hall is the tall, tall, tall boy with the wavy hair in the Senior Class. If you’re ever in the mood for an argument, go find George. His knowledge of science and numerous other things is amazing. George is president of the student council and he certainly knows his business. George is a pretty busy guy, taking in everything includ- ing basketball. He is another one of our gifts from South Ryegate. George isn’t too sure of his future plans. — Twenty-one —

ROGER SIMMONS Roge If you ever wander into the First National and are greeted with a pleasent hello” from a nice-looking employee, it’s Roge. He insists that he is a woman hater, but we’re beginning to have our doubts. We are very glad he decided to come back to school this year. We admire his ambition. He is the senior's Vice-President. As yet Roger isn’t sure of his future plans but whatever they may be, we can depend on Roge! PATRICIA STEARNS Pat A streak of red across the floor and a mad cheer is heard. Yes, Stearns has made an- other basket. Pat is a very active member of W. R. H. S., star forward and co-captain of the basketball team. She is president of the senior class. Pat really keeps the ball roll- ing both in school and on the basketball- floor. She really gets around, a friend to everyone. We’ll miss Pat and her South Ryegate smile, but Becker Junior College, where she plans to go, will be gaining our loss. MARION WEBSTER Dode Dode is one of the reasons why W. R. H.- S. keeps rolling, for she has a pretty good head on her shoulders. In basketball when we see a baffled look on an opponent’s face, we know Dode had something to do with it. She rates as a swell guard and co-captain of the .team. This year she became Secretary and Treasurer of the Senior class. Dode is full of fun and quite a gal. Won’t U.N.H. sit up and take notice when Dode arrives? Good luck in the future, Kiddo! — Twenty-three
