CLASS What memories come rushing back as we glance through our high school photograph

album! Remember this? We all got off the bus in our freshman year, scared, but pleased that

we were now in high school. Remember our first Senior Get-Together when Sandy Simmons was crowned Freshman

Queen? The Indians in this shot weren’t real, but they surely were funny. Don’t you recall the

skit at the Sophomore-Freshman party? Christopher Columbus appeared as he never had before. After three months of getting to know our classmates, we elected these officers. Here

are Lois Sharp, President; Steve Grant, Vice-president; Sandy Simmons, Secretary; and

George Bastien, Treasurer. Under the leadership of these officers we held our Spring Carnival, with the Sophomores

as invited guests. Remember these pictures? Sue Pascoe was a fortune teller. Here are snaps of some of our midway—Steve Grant officiating as weight guesser! That could be a danger¬

ous assignment. Doesn’t this snapshot of Mr. Verne Olsen bring back memories? When he appeared in

Bermuda shorts for our class picnic, everyone knew that that was to be a special event. Re¬ member when Miss Mary Davey and part of the group got separated from Mr. Olsen and the rest while hiking in People’s Forest? Of course Miss Davey asserted that it was Mr. Olsen who got separated, not she.

Look at Coach McMillan pictured on the shoulders of the basketball team. That year we won the Class C Tournament. What an introduction to the Ellsworth basketball team! We were just as proud as those who had spent four years at EMHS.

What confusion there was with our two Judy Andersons! Here is the littler Judy from Broad Brook. The picture next to her shows Judy from South Windsor. Both were small dark-haired girls, both in Home Room 25, Miss Davey’s English class, and Miss Duffy’s general science course.

At the end of the year Lois Sharp was appointed assistant editor of the South Winds. When we left school that June, we were jubilant at the thought of our summer vacation,

but were saddened by the fact that next year we would not be with our East Windsor classmates. Don’t you recall how many of these friends we missed?

As soon as we returned to school for our sophomore year, we elected Steve Grant, Presi¬ dent; Warren Andrulat, Vice-president; Shirley Petersen, Secretary; and Lois Sharp, Treasurer.

After the Senior Get-Together we began work on the Sophomore-Freshman Party. Doesn’t

this picture remind you of the fun at our bam dance? Surrounded by hay bales, we square- danced.

Remember the skit we presented? When Lois Sharp fell down the stairs and sprained her ankle on the afternoon of the party, quick changes were made. Helen Krawski took over to star with “Jungle Carol” Higgins in the stirring love story, “He Went to the Funeral Just for the Ride.”

Remember these fashions? The Student Council that year was concerned with proposed legislation prohibiting the wear of Bermuda skirts in school. The Council decided to uphold the Ellsworth standards of dress and to reserve the skirts for more informal wear.

Here is Miss Dziob calling, “Time!” at a girls’ basketball game. The only trouble was that coaching from the sidelines is prohibited and a technical team foul was called. Poor Miss Dziob didn’t mean any harm, but we did get a good laugh out of this incident.

This pictures all of the biology students traipsing to school with formaldehyde-filled gallon jars. Once again biology projects were due. All types of plants, animals, and minerals covered the tables in Mr. Romaine’s room.

During the spring the Social Crafts and Home Economis Club sponsored square danc¬ ing lessons. Bob McClatchey was caller. A lot of fun was had at these active sessions.

Just look at this page of honorable sophomores. Helen Krawski and Joan Eckert were chosen to serve on the cheering squad. Cynthia Pelton was elected SCHE Vice-president. She would automatically be President in her senior year. Lois Sharp was appointed Editor of the South Winds.

Once again, after completing another year’s work and fun at EMHS, we recessed for the summer.

Here we are as we returned to school for our junior year. Again we elected Officers. Warren Andrulat was President; Arthur Cushman, Vice-president; Martha Butcher, Secretary; and Shirley Petersen, Treasurer. We soon got into the swing of things and started in our various classes and activities.

In November we began work on our Junior Sock Hop. Remember this big sock? Those girls who made the socks certainly contributed a lot of time and effort.

Prizes were awarded for the most unusual socks. Lois Sharp, with her South Winds, and Lance Stoker, with a concoction of three sizes of socks, were the winners.

Ellsworth was invaded! Here is a picture of all the evaluators milling around the school. Can’t you remember seeing them in classes, in the halls, and everywhere imaginable? Students were stationed to aid them in finding their way.

The presentation of the Ellsworth Story was the visible evidence of the hard work of Mr. Verne Olsen and his photo club. Here are pictured Lloyd Roberts and Bob Thibo¬ deau reading the script which goes with the movie. Co-featured with Fort Ti, this movie was publicly presented. This was made to record on film the activities at Ellsworth.

The Fashion Show each year took up the time of our senior girls. Shirley Petersen and Donna Patria seemed to be class models. These wedding gowns, made by Jeannette and Yvette Cote, Ellsworth alumnae, show the carry over of sewing skills. Here these gowns are modeled by Juliet Cote, sister of the brides, and Luella Bradley.

Another spring favorite was the Pops Concert. This shows members of our class partici¬ pating in the event as members of the orchestra, band, and chorus. Joan Eckert, Warren Andrulat, Joe Rizzo, and Cynthia Pelton received recognition by playing special numbers.

Miss Antonina Dziob was music instructor when we came to the school as freshmen. In our junior year Mr. Arthur Woods took over her position.

That spring the music and home economics departments decided to combine efforts to produce the “Holiday with Music and Fashion.”

HISTORY

At the end of the junior year, honors and responsibilities are given to outstanding

students. Lois Sharp was elected to the National Honor Society and traveled with senior

members and the faculty to the Log Cabin, where they enjoyed a delicious meal.

Cynthia Pelton and Lois Sharp were chosen as class marshals. Walter Kupchunos and

Lois were elected to represent the school at Nutmeg Boys’ State and Laurel Girls’ State

during June.

Cynthia Pelton was selected to attend the All-State Chorus as the alto representative.

Here is pictured our Ellsworthian staff. Lois Sharp was Editor; Cynthia Pelton and

Shirley Petersen, Literary Editors; Carol Higgins and Nancy Peck, Art Editiors; Warren

Andrulat, Joan Eckert, Helen Krawski, and Ellen Saczawa, Business Managers; Martha

Butcher, Bookkeeper; and Tim Nadeau, Photography Editor.

Other class journalists were elected to the editorial board of the South Winds. Here are

pictured Elizabeth Hood, Head Typist; Nancy Peck, Head Mimeoscoper; and Lois Sharp, Parade

of Youth Correspondent.

Ten of the top ranking junior girls were chosen to usher at the Class Night and Grad¬

uation ceremonies. They make a beautiful picture, dressed in their fluffy summer dresses.

These girls arc Shirley Petersen, Helen Krawski, Cynthia Elmore, Joan Eckert, Elizabeth

Hood, Judy Anderson, Patty Stelmat, Donna Patria, Lynn Burns, and Martha Butcher.

Again we dismissed for our summer vacation. This time most of our classmates were to

spend their time working.

This shows us returning for our final—and busiest—year at Ellsworth. It was necessary

to select our officers right away, for we were to sponsor the Senior Get-Together.

Warren Andrulat was again chosen President; Walter Kupchunos, Vice-president;

Cynthia Pelton, Secretary; and Shirley Petersen, Treasurer.

Elizabeth Hood was elected general chairman of the Senior Get-Together. Work began,

and soon the theme, “Harvest Moon,” shaped up into fall decorations. This picture shows

a moon, pumpkins, and a scarecrow.

Singing our theme song were Shirley Petersen and Beverly Wetherell. Remember these

accordionists? Bob Malin and Steve Banis were quite an attraction as were peppy little

Andy Larive and the rest of the entertainers.

Doesn’t this picture bring back memories? Voluble Helen Krawski made the job of

census-taker Timid Tim Nadeau rather hard when she insisted on rambling. Everyone

seemed to enjoy the skit, even Helen and Tim.

The Ten Top Seniors were announced. Here we see them going home with empty arms,

among their heavily laden classmates, for these privileged seniors had an extra set of books to

lessen their load. (With the ten pounds of English books to carry, they might have had broken

arms by now.) These seniors are Lois Sharp, Cynthia Pelton, Shirley Petersen, Helen Krawski,

Joan Eckert, Cynthia Elmore, Donna Patria, Elizabeth Hood, Walter Kupchunos, and Martha

Butcher.

Here we see the leaders in our magazine campaign. Remember the hard work we put

into the campaign to make it a success? Donna Patria earned the honor of top salesman by

selling more than any other Ellsworthian had ever sold. Cynthia Pelton and Walter Kupchunos

were next in sales. Artie Cushman was chosen at random from the large number of those who

sold over $100 worth of magazines to receive a prize.

Competition added spice to the campaign. Team captains were elected, and teams chosen.

The Blue Team, captained by Lois Sharp and advised by Mr. Harold Kibbe, beat the Red Team,

led by Cynthia Pelton and Mrs. Esther Bond. The combined efforts of the two teams netted

$3774.24, a profit of $1296.22 for the class trip to Washington, D.C.

Three senior girls held offices in the S.C.H.E. Cynthia Pelton was President; Joyce

Krawski, Secretary; and Donna Patria, Treasurer.

The yearbook staff had begun work. The class dedicated its book to Mrs. Dorothy

Martyn, who, besides being generally cheerful and helpful to all Ellsworth students, had,

as Junior Class advisor, aided in the production of our prom.

Tim Nadeau and Helen Krawski were elected to write the class prophecy; Walter Kup¬

chunos and Cynthia Pelton, the will; and Lois Sharp, the history.

Soccer was an important part of our senior year. Somehow this picture of Artie Cushman

with his broken ankle seems to symbolize the spirit of our team. Holding an undefeated

record during the regular season made us one of the choices for the state Class C'Tournament.

In an unfortunate mishap at Bacon Academy, however, Artie, a high scorer, broke an

ankle. The loss of such a valuable player did not lessen the Ellsworth spirit. We reached the

finals, still undefeated. However, Hale-Ray School proved to be our downfall. They earned

the championship by defeating Ellsworth, 4-1. Although not the winners, we were proud to

be in this tournament.

Besides Artie, Walter Kupchunos, and Joe Rizzo were senior members of the team.

Herb Holden, Kendall Hodgdon, and Tim Nadeau also aided our teams by acting as managers

and scorer.

Some girls were athletically inclined. However, basketball was the only organized inter¬

scholastic sport. Martha Butcher, Joyce Krawski, Joan Eckert, Shirley Petersen, and Lois

Sharp were all varsity team members, while Ellen Saczawa, Helen Krawski, Gae Driscoll,

Carol Higgins and Betty Raulukaitis played J.V. Donna Patria and Gae Driscoll were girls’

managers.

The section of pictures showing the activities of our final spring at Ellsworth cer¬

tainly is filled. These photos show the class during the busiest time in our four years, taken

up with selling refreshments at the music program and preparing for our Washington

Trip. Remember all the fun we had on the train and touring the city?

Then came the preparation for Class Night and Graduation. The flurry and bustle cer¬

tainly made graduation seem wonderful, yet sad.

Skipping quickly over these pages, we come upon this shot of our class descending the

steps of Ellsworth. It seems to be a fitting close to our album.

Together we have shared fun and hard work. We have grown as individuals and as a

body. Now we leave our friends and travel our own paths. “Tonight we launch; where

shall we anchor?”

CLASS

Setting: A dress shop in the residential section of a quaint town. A disturbed customer rushes

into the shop.

I would like to see the manager.

Ummp, madam, you’re speaking to the manager. What can I do for you?

I bought this dress here yesterday, and when I showed it to my brother, he told me that where

the stripes go around, I look fat, and where they go down, I look skinny.

Is it the person or the dress? Oh, well, bring it over to the counter, and we’ll exchange it for

you. What is your name? You know that you look very familiar.

(Looking at him as though he is fresh) You look familiar to me, too.

Helen Krawski!!!

Tim Nadeau!!! Well, how have you been? I didn’t see you at our last class reunion. Where

have you been keeping yourself? Remember those nights that we spent burning the midnight oil

writing our class prophecy?

I may not have attended our last class reunion, but I have constantly associated with mem¬

bers of our class from the day we graduated. Why, Ellen Saczawa used to be one of my salesgirls

until she went to the Hanover School of Modeling. Did you know that she has just announced her

engagement to Max Factor?

Oh, yes, Ellen has done well for herself, but right in our home town, I see Pat Stelmat and

Kathy Boisseau working on the Modern New England Turnpike which runs along Ellington Road.

They are civil engineers. On a billboard on the road, Joe Rizzo, who is in the exterminating busi¬

ness, advertises: “Bugs and Roaches Scattered by Roach-Roaster Rizzo.”

I read in last night’s paper that Elizabeth Hood was recently chosen as Mrs. America. She

always did have a knack of running a household efficiently.

Oh, Tim, I see that you are a loyal Ellsworth alumnus. You have “Krazie.” It’s the greatest

sensation on the newstands at the present, praised by its 38 fans as being the sauciest magazine at

the stand. On the cover of the latest issue, Art Cushman was pictured carrying the Torch in the

last meter of the Olympic Marathon. Art led the United States to a decisive victory. By the way,

Lois Sharp is editor-in-chief of this strictly male magazine. She always excelled in the literary

department. On page one, Beverley Wetherell is shown modeling her late model sportscar given to

her by the illustrious play-boy, Tom Nichols. The seatcovers are dyed Bobcat yellow to match her

blonde hair.

Lynn “Home Wrecker” Burns writes a power packed gossip column. Recently, she received

a letter from one of our alumnae. It read as follows:

“Dear Lynn,

Every night I’m kept awake by the screeches which come from our neighbors’ daughters.

Carol Higgins is the idol of all American youth with her rock and roll show. Mule Skinner Higgy’s

Honky Tonk Hour. Her show is a haunting half hour to me. Last week Judy LaPlante, singing

and swinging to her latest new hit, ‘Good-by, Henry,’ just disrupted the harmony of our household.

I guess it’s something about loving Henry’s Ford with its duals until she saw Bob’s Cadillac with

its glass backs. What will this youth come to?

Sincerely,

Cynthia Elmore”

This was Lynn’s reply:

“Dear Cynthia,

Remember the Hound?”

My memory fails me. Who is the Hound? But, seriously, I dialed the operator last night for

one of those new fangled long distance telephone calls, and I heard soft spoken Mary Petrolito

whisper, “It is naaw eight foorty-five.” I wanted to be connected to Walter Kupchunos at his

Vermont home office, so Mary very obligingly did so. Walter’s secretary, Marilyn Bahler, made

reservations for me at the fabulous Kuppy Motel Chain in Bermuda. They gave me the presidential

suite, since the president will be golfing that week-end. I’ve enjoyed traveling lately — one never

knows what to expect next.

Yes, I’ve been traveling quite a bit lately myself. While I was in Africa, I met Colonel Shirley

Petersen, hard boiled commander of the French Foreign Legion. Shirley reports that her best

secret service agent is Lillian Andreoli. I guess that Lillian’s quiet way is finally paying off.

Why, in our own country, Herb Holden has just completed transactions for the purchase of

the state of Montana to supply pasture land for his herd of Holsteins.

PROPHECY

I read about that in the paper. Gerry Faulkner is the head of Herb’s milk delivery service,

while Martha Butcher is in the accounting section. During her spare time Martha takes an active

interest in the sports department of Herb’s establishment. She is a basketball coach.

Ann Begin is another person who watches out for the welfare of others. Ann is now chief

mouseketeer in the Mickey Mouse Club. Ann enjoys working with the future leaders of our nation

and trying to develop their talent.

When it comes to practical application of brains, I guess that Kendall Hodgdon had

to take a bow there. Kendall is the inventor of the new shell binder for broken eggs. It will

restore the yolk membrane if it is broken when you crack the egg on the frying pan edge.

Incidentally, one of the best discussions which I’ve attended lately, was given by

Evangelist Luella Bradley, who is now appearing nightly at the New York Colosseum. Her

current topic of discussion is: “People who travel in circles will someday be called big wheels.”

It seems that everyone should hear that, but someone else who has been doing well in

New York is Nancy Peck. She is currently collecting royalties from her comic strip entitled

“Cosmo” and “Cosmette”, “Cosmo” having been discharged from Beetle Bailey’s Army.

Ah, yes, the good old days at Ellsworth!

Back in South Windsor, Joan Eckert is a professional chaperone for all the girls at Ells¬

worth when they go to the drive-in. All evening long she beats a steady path to the conces¬

sionaire. I hope that she keeps the Ellsworth students behaving as well at the drive-in as

the class of ’58 did. Knowing Joan as I do, I expect that she does.

Did you know that Judy Anderson always had a love for horses? Well, Judy, while

riding her horse “Bushed,” managed to jump all the hurdles at the International Horse Show in

record time. “Bushed” is now the hurdling champion of the world.

I often see Judy. Joyce Krawski sets my hair every week at her beauty salon, The Curly-Q,

where Donna Patria is her receptionist. Yes, many of our feminine classmates frequent Joyce’s

beauty salon. The other day I saw Joyce putting wireworks into Gae Driscoll’s coiffure. Gae, who is

president of Winchester Manufacturing Company, recently announced that her firm has hired

Cynthia Pelton as public relations expert to attract more and more of the sportsmen of America.

Gae always had a way to figure things out, but Betty Raulukaitis also has a flair for business.

Betty has assumed the responsibility of running her father’s Red and White Store on Windsorville

Road. Among her subsidiaries are the A. & P. and the First National Stores. Then, too, Honest

Angey’s Friendly Garage is now the show-room charm of all the nation. A license is included with

every purchase. Warren’s motto is: “All wrecks bought and sold; no wives taken in on trade.”

Oh, Tim, I almost forgot! There’s a newscast which I’ve been anxious to hear all day

long. Turn the radio on, please?

RADIO:

And now ... we bring you from Alaska . . . our Arctic correspondent, Juliet Cote. Come in

Alaska and Juliet Cote . . .

Hello, America, this is Juliet Cote in Alaska. With me this evening, I have two of the

most daring explorers in the world. Armed with only ice picks, they will attempt to drag their way

through the melting ice to the North Pole during the summertime. Ahh, Miss Marjorie Topping,

could you tell us what you and Miss Lana Paul expect to accomplish by completing this trip

successfully?

(Marjorie speaks): Well, uhh,

Thank you, Juliet Cote, from Alaska. We now return you to our studio for a five min¬

ute interlude of music.

Gosh, Helen, those two were always the ones for doing something unusual, but I never

thought that they’d do anything like that.

They’re doing it in commemoration of graduation from E.M.H.S. twenty years ago. All

of our plans are in a state of confusion, but our reunion committee is assembling this after¬

noon to iron out our difficulties. Oh, that reminds me! I’m half an hour late. It was nice seeing

you, Tim, but I’ve simply got to run. I’ll see you soon.

(Runs out of the store.)

But . . . Helen . . . Oh, well, she’s gone. Yes, she’ll be seeing me sooner than she

expects. She forgot all about exchanging her dress!

CLASS WILL OF 1958 We the Class of 1958, due to circumstances beyond our control, are graduating from

Ellsworth Memorial High School, Main Street, East Windsor Hill, Hartford County, State of Connecticut, Eastern Coast of the United States, Continent of North America, in the Western Hemisphere, on the planet Earth, in the outer universe.

To the entire unexalted junior class we hereby relinquish our quiet, dignified, respected, charming, intelligent, and modest personalities. We sincerely hope you will follow our excellent examples.

To the sophomores we leave hope. To the faculty we leave. To the freshmen we leave a large supply of lollipops and bow-ties. Kathleen Boisseau leaves with her giggles still echoing down the halls. Linda Pallait receives Margie Topping’s quiet dignity. Margie has set a good example, Linda. Joan Eckert surrenders her ability to keep an argument going to Carol Saczawa. Herb Holden sadly leaves his tremendous line with chicks to Norman Paulhus. Herby had

all the girls flocking around him. See if you can keep up his good record, Norman. Arthur Cushman takes his little black book, much to the disgust of the junior boys. Joe Rizzo leaves with one final word to the freshmen. “Take good care of next year’s seniors;

they look like a hopeless case.” Elizabeth Hood relinquishes her Pepsodent smile to Barbara Hallowell. Tommy Nichols wills his butch to John LeDoux. Remember, John, a haircut at least once

a week! Ellen Saczawa leaves her serious manner somewhere in the school where she lost it the

day she entered. Cynthia Ordway receives Luella Bradley’s Park Avenue appearance. Lana Paul and Judy LaPlante leave their Saturday jobs and their Manchester boys to any

girl who can get around as much as those two did. Timmy Nadeau has decided that it would be best for him not to leave anything. Everything

might prove handy later on. Warren Andrulat leaves his wide-awake, energetic manner, displayed in English class to

Stanley Russak. Remember, Stan, “Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

Ken Hodgdon bestows upon Dan Elmore his Charles Atlas build. How many telephone books can you rip up at a time, Danny?

Juliet Cote leaves her ability for sewing to Muriel Magee. Muriel, only one thimble — oh, yes, and a needle too.

Gae Driscoll leaves her blonde hair to Brigita Rupner. Remember, Brigita, no peroxide — that’s cheating.

Cynthia Elmore bestows upon Sandy Madsen her petiteness and vivacity. Sandy, remember no shop coat in classes.

Gerald Faulkner leaves in his hot “51” Ford. Watch the posts on the way out, Gerry. Carol Higgins sadly leaves her spot at the East Windsor Drive-in to anyone who can get the

family car as much as Carol did. Joyce Krawski gives her pretty red hair to Alan Trotman. Remember, Alan, they say that

redheads are great lovers. Don’t break too many girls’ hearts. Shirley Petersen sadly leaves her love for Vermont to anyone with a love for the outdoors —

and the people of Vermont. Donna Patria leaves her ability to sell $502.08 worth of magazines to Pete Bossen. Remember,

Pete, some people close the door pretty hard, so watch those feet. Jay Morse receives Nancy Peck’s witty sayings and remarks. Don’t come out with too many

wise cracks, Jay. Nancy found out it didn’t pay. Mary Petrolito relinquishes her sweet voice over the telephone to Kitty Mansur. Patience

means business, Kitty. Remember that. Betty Raulukaitis relinquishes her job as cafeteria worker to Diane Shea. Remember, Diane,

don’t brush the crumbs on the floor. Lois Sharp remorsefully drops her position as Editor-in-chief of the Ellsworthian to any brave

soul who has no love for sleep but does have energy and long fingernails. Beverly Wetherell surrenders the job of entering Ellsworth in her senior year and making so

many new acquaintances to some future Ellsworthian. Beverly did a very good job. Lillian Andreoli leaves her quiet personality to her brother, Fred. Remember this quality

comes in handy in the library, Fred. Barbara Roberts, Nancy Ellison, and Kathy Surber receive Judy Anderson’s love for horses.

Don’t let them throw you, girls. Judy always managed to stay on. Ann Begin wills her job at the Record Shop to someone who loves music. Remember you get

a discount on all records you buy. Pat Stelmat surrenders her love for chewing gum to Steve Banis. Can you chew as fast as

Patty can, Steve? Sally Cassarino is to be the recipient of Lynn Burns’ warm smile. Remember, Sally, a smile a

day keeps the enemy away. Marilyn Bahler surrenders her position as Mrs. Tapley’s assistant to any girl who can sew and

cook as well as Marilyn can. Helen Krawski leaves her ability for cheering the boys on to any future cheerleader who has

as much pep, vim, and vigor as Helen had. By the way, Helen, you really managed those boys very well on the bus.

Martha Butcher wills her skill in sports to Charlotte Cassarino. Keep the basketball team winning, Charlotte, Martha did.

Don Burr gladly receives Walter Kupchunos’s way with soccer balls — oh, yes, and girls, too. Cynthia Pelton relinquishes her kind and helpful manner to Diane Blackmore. “See if you

can help as many of your classmates as Cynthia did, Diane.” We the members of the Class of ’58, in the above statements, do leave our numerous and

successful accomplishments, achieved during our four years at Ellsworth, to certain of the worthy underclassmen. Signed, sealed, and delivered this sixth day of June, in the year nineteen hundred and fifty-eight, on behalf of the Glorified Order of the 1958 Ellsworthians.

STUDENT COUNCIL

let C°u

^Atttt^

C°tt

The Student Council, which was or¬

ganized in 1949, consists of the class officers

of each class and the chairmen of the Coun¬

cil committees. The Council has now

progressed to where it can directly be con¬

sidered the school’s governing body. Al¬

though committee chairmen attend Council

meetings, the sixteen class officers are the

only voting members.

The president of the senior class auto¬

matically becomes president of the Student

Council. Council president this year was

Warren Andrulat; secretary, Martha But¬

cher; and sergeant-at-arms, William Braith-

waite.

This year a Publicity Committee has

been added to the Council committees.

The S.C.H.E.—Social Crafts and Home

Economics Club-—began the year by giving

a Big Sister Party to introduce the club and

its activities to any prospective members.

Under the guidance of Mrs. Tapley, the

club has toured G. Fox & Company and has

sponsored many activities during the school

year.

Selling earrings and Christmas corsages

enabled the members to contribute money to

CARE. Also, die S.C.H.E. runs a snack bar

which is open Mondays and Wednesdays

after school.

The biggest event of the year is the

spring fashion show in May. Each model

wears the clothes she made during the course

of the year.

To complete a year of hard work, the

members hold an annual outing.
