TVcil s4«teC 7e tcuue tt Esteemed Company of Witnesses: The senior class has felt for some time that its demise was near; we have felt that school was beginning to disagree with us and that the members of the faculty had conspired to accomplish the death of the most astonishingly brilliant class the walls of Winooski High and the teachers thereof have frowned upon. The bitter doses of lessons we have taken with daily regularity have hastened rather than prolonged our class demise, and we know with sorrowful certainty that the hour of our departure is near at hand. There- fore, being so soon to pass from these scenes of educational activity, being in full possession of alert minds and memories that put the encyclopedias to shame, having faculties keenly sharpened by many contests with our instructors, we would publish to you upon this funeral occasion the last will and testa- ment of the senior class of 1953. We do hereby appoint and charge Gerald Francis the lawful custodian of the class funds; to faithfully attend to looking up the numerous bills we owe, and to settle all accounts by the departing class from the exhausted pennies of an already depleted treasury. No money are we taking with us from this in- stitution of education, neither shall we leave any debts behind us. To the members of our beloved faculty, who look upon our demise with smiles of joy, we bequeath the satisfaction which comes from duties well performed, and a peaceful rest. The following valuable personal bequeaths, freely given, should be treasured as a continual reminder of the abundant and overwhelming generosity of the class and the individuals thereof; The future class presidents we leave, Peter Formica’s power to preside with a dignity that would do honor to a Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. I, Shirley LeBelle, leave to Shirley Rabidoux and Suzanne Feeney my ability to talk my way out of any situation by not letting anyone get a word in. I, Gerald Meunier, leave to Leo Desso, all my Charles Atlas Books, may he put them to good use. I, Marcia Villemaire, leave to Robert Landry my book entitled 999 Ways to Get Dents Out of Fenders.”
