ROBERT WAYNE TAYLOR Hodge” Class Executive Committee 4; Basketball 1, 2, 3, Co-Captain 4; Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4; Soccer 3. Bob's shy smile and easy manner cause everyone to accept him as a friend. Nice shot, Hodge!” is an exclamation Bob hears many times a day. All his life lie has been interested in sports and has developed into an outstanding athlete. High scoring is in his blood, and we feel certain that he will score highly in future life. Never say more than is necessary.” JOHN ALLAN TOBIN Jackie That loud, rhythmic drumming you have heard coming from the boys room was, more than likely, John Tobin. John is that formerly, transplanted, Woodbury student who has returned home. Upon his return, he has made a hit with his witty sayings and snappy remarks. After his graduation he will leave for the Navy to serve two years for his country. Do titilo the other feller the way he'd like to do unto yon an' do it fust.” JOAN ALICE UNDERWOOD Joannie” Mirror 3, 4; Chorus 2, 3, 4; History Club 1; French Club 2. Shy, sweet Joannie, with her pretty dark eyes and hair, is a friend to all. Neat and prim, she sometimes surprises everyone with a burst of laughter. One can often see her riding around in her green bug or Singer. Joannie, like many of her classmates, is destined for some executive s lap. And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace. RUTH ANNE VILEISIS rrRRooT!” Mirror 3, 4; Basketball 3, Co-Captain 4; Chorus 3, 4; Art Club Vice President 4. Since Ruth's arrival at WHS in our junior year, she has made a name tor herself as an individualist and a nonconformist. This tall, thin, brunette is creative and has proven herself as a member of the girls' varsity. Determined to be a career girl, Ruthie will probably become an economist, or a lawyer, or maybe a writer on the Left Bank. I ask to know.”

JONATHAN LESLIE SMITH Jonny” Class President 1; Class Treasurer 2, 3; Honor Society; Wide Awake Editor 4; AA President 4; Basketball Manager 1, 2, 3; Baseball Manager 1, 3, 4; Soccer 4; Mirror 2, Sports Editor 3; Quill and Scroll 3, 4; Harvard Book Award 3; Chorus 3; Forums 3; Prom Committee 3; Magazine Drive Representative 3, 4. Jonny is the most popular guy in our class. Why? With his winning personality, good looks, and willingness to do anything for anybody, he couldn't be anything else. He has shown his able leadership as president of the A.A. in '58 and as editor of our yearbook. Most likely to succeed, Jonny has been an honor student for four years and seems destined for a life of military discipline. When you call me that, SMILE! FRANK TANTON SPORIE Sporie Class Executive Committee 4; Honor Society; Student Council Vice President 4; FFA Public Speaking 1, Spring Judging Contest 1, 2, 3, 4, Fair Horticulture Contest 2, 3, 4, Chairman of Calendar Committee 3, 4; Mirror 1. This lad has been a valuable asset to both his class and to the school. His untiring work in the F.F.A. Chapter has helped produce a chapter of state wide fame. Yet his real call did not come until his senior year when he accepted the responsibilities of the vice president of the newly formed Student Council. His course will surely lead toward the agricultural field for he has already started building his success. Yes, an’ no, tnebbe, an’ mebbe not.” KATHRYN MARIE STEWART Kay” Class Treasurer 4; Honor Society; Softball 3; Field Hockey 4; Chorus 3, 4; Science Club 3, Treasurer 4; Art Club 4. Kay moved to Woodbury last year from New Jersey and since then has made herself known around WHS. She is an honor student as well as treasurer of our class and of the Science Club. This fall will find Kay at college following the career of a veterinarian. Never leave that tomorrow which yon can do today.

The word diamond has untold significance with this lad for his fabulous feats on the baseball diamond are records. To appreciate the nickname of watermelon” one has to look at Ray's physical proportions. This figure has helped Ray become one of Woodbury’s true, great athletes. His trail is destined for college and, who knows, maybe even baseball fame. You do de pullin’, Sis Cow, en I'll do de gruntin’
