I, Deli Bailey, will Rosemary Basch my place in the office. Stay out all night, then enjoy sleeping all first period, without a teacher hollering at you. I Priscilla Drown, will to Peanut Gravlin my ability to dance. The music always sounds better when you're twirling around the floor. I, Mary Egner, will to my sister, Connie, my place in typewriting class. Next year you can learn how to type love letters better. I, Marlene Carr, will to Ida Mae Nelson my ability as a medium. You meet more crazy people that way. I, Trilly Eoyce, will to Geraldean Brock my ability to stick to one man. You can’t play the field forever, you know. I, Buddy Marden, will my car to John Demeritt. Now you won’t have to bum rides from the old grads. I, Russell Sulham, will to Charlie Come my method of coming to school in the morning — late!! You get in good with the teachers that way. Lastly, we appoint CHARLES COME executor of this last will and testament. Witnessed and recorded this ninth day of June in the Year of Our Lord 19 53.

of Newbury, in the county of Orange and in the sovereign Republic of Vermont, being of sound body and having complete control of our senses and impulses do hereby revoke all former wills made by us and declare that this, our last will, is according to our own wishes and affections. We will Mr. Cornthwaite Duke Ellington’s latest. You’ve been a swell sport, and we feel that the Johnny Ray joke has gone too far. We will Mrs. Gibson a personality like Mickey Spillane’s. Next year you’ll have complete control in your English classes. We will Mrs. Spear an automatic attendance taker. From now on you can be late and still mark Brock tardy. We will Mr. McPhetres our deepest sympathy. How will you ever stand it here without this brilliant class? We will Mrs. Wilson a pair of contact lenses. Freeman won’t be able to hide them from you now. We will Mr. Morey a motor boat. Next year there will be no excuse for you not making it to Newbury when high water comes. We will Mrs. Rowe a new piano. Without our gifted voices you’ll need something to keep the glee club on pitch. We will Sam Stanley the oncoming seniors. Maybe they won’t get the bell rope stuck as often as we did. We will to all the undergraduates our years of experience as actors and actresses. We’ve noticed that the sophomores have already caught on to the know-how. Keep up the good work. We will the Juniors our mighty tower room. You may paste up all the pictures of your favorite movie stars, except Marilyn Monroe. We found out that her curves are too much for the teachers to see hanging on the wall while trying to conduct classes. We will the Sophomores our amazing athletic abilities. If Boom can’t .do it Wilson can. We will the Freshmen a few more males. Maybe this will stop the trend toward Woodsville. We will the Junior High all of our water pistols. Perhaps you’d better not use them till after school, though — you’ll have them longer. I, David Bidwell, will to anyone who wants it, my ability to drive more teachers mad than any other pupil to pass through these halls. I, Connie Mayhew, will to my sister, Beverly, my ability to get up early in the morning with only a few hours sleep. Love sure is grand, isn’t it, Bev? — T wenty-eight —
