Jhe Xast EL/jilt and gestainent of iLe Jenior lass We, the Class of Nineteen Hundred Fifty-five, being of sound body and reasonably sound mind, and having gained from these long and toilsome years of conscientious study a goodly amount of erudition concerning innumerable significant, momentous, and important facts, do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament, revoking by virtue of this document all former wills made by us. We do give, bequeath, devise, bestow, and will our estate and property as follows, to wit:
To the Faculty, a number of pleasant memories of our exceedingly zestful class, including recollections of our various delightful actions, wise and helpful answers, and excruciatingly witty remarks, with the sincere hope that these may console them in some degree for our untimely departure. To Mr. Tiffany, a group of girls totally lacking in insubordination, disrespect, and eccentricity, with the hope that they may afford him a much-needed Peaceful Year. To Mrs. Peckham, a gold-tooled leather cover for her ancient "pet" copy of that excellent volume known as "DENT"; and a three-foot pencil for use in correcting the Senior source themes. To Mrs. Farnum, a recipe file in which she can store her myriad recipes for ingenious and original hors-d'oeuvres and sandwich spreads; and a volume entitled "Anecdotes From American History,- so that her supply will never be exhausted. To Miss Cross, an unabridged Spanish-English dictionary, and an equally unabridged English-Spanish lexicon, both to be firmly fastened to a large table in the library by a stout and unbreakable chain; and a box of crackers for her sixth-period class. To Miss Lightman, a pair of skis and a manual entitled "How To Retain a Suntan Indefinitely." To Mrs. Soares, a group of girls with satisfactorily high-pitched voices; and enough new song sheets for everyone in those Tuesday morning assemblies. To Miss Robichaud, a record of the hit song, "Earth Worm," and the assurance that we think she's an Angel. To Mlle. Antoine, a punctual first-period class that will, no doubt, be of one opinion concerning the raising and lowering of the window; and a book of French Christmas carols to be rendered in the aforementioned dulcet tones of next year's seniors. To Miss Pike, a new set of ping-pong equipment and our best wishes for a class with innate athletic ability. To Miss Lovejoy, a full year's supply of Kleenex and cherry-flavored cough drops to ease the ailments of the Class of 1956; and a bottle of Bufferin to prepare them for graduation. To Mr. Wyman, a plaque inscribed as follows: "Remember, Do Not Be A Buddy"; and our thanks for his expressions of that all-important Man's Point of View. To Mr. Herron, ten gallons of gasoline to assure next year's art classes of many profitable "field trips" to Boston and other points of interest. To Mr. Porter, a desk of his own in some quiet corner to spa re him the deafening roar of the 8:40 emergence from Study Hall. The following will the following to the following: Lulu Allen, her camera to anyone who can master its intricacies. Betty Buckley, the job of directing the workshop play to anyone who thinks it's easy. Hat Budnitz, her seat in the Highlander to anyone who wants it. Marge Crickard, her unruffled calm to all future Seniors; they will undoubtedly have need of it next year. Phyl Farber, her svelte chic and her infallible poise to anyone who wants to impress an interviewer. Marianne Glick, her poker-faced delivery of hysterically funny comments to George Gobel. Ann Gustafson, her soft voice to her sister Sandy, just to keep it in the family. Nan Jones, her diet to anyone who can stand the hunger pangs. Carol Koreywo, a book entitled "One Thousand Ways To Talk Yourself Out Of Trouble," to the next Head of Student Government. Betsy Lawson, her naturally curly hair to anyone who dreads rainy days. Patty Neal, her ability to rhumba to Carmen Miranda, with the admonition to use it discreetly. Manny Palmer, a pair of comfortable shoes to be worn when soliciting ads to Sandy Locke. Betsy Philips, her jokes and cartoons on the bulletin board in Study Hall to anyone who wishes to compile an album. Pat Ramsdell, her corner of the Senior Room to Sally Poor, with the instruction that it be used only for sleeping and doing Music homework. Judy Smith, her appetizing lunches to Linda Griffith. Ruth Talamo, her collection of Harvard banners, notebooks, stickers, book covers and other miscellaneous items to any girl who cherishes a deep affection for the Crimson and White. Jean Tonna, her parking space in front of the Tennis Club to Joyce Ellsworth. Joan Tonna, her talkative nature to any entering freshman who may find herself at a loss for words. The Class of 1955, the Senior Room, library sofas, and desks in the rear of the study hall to the Class of 1956, with the stipulation that they be used with restraint for napping and with frequency for deep meditation. The Seniors leave — we hope! In witness whereof, we, the above-named testators, have this day of June tenth, nineteen hundred fifty-five, hereunto set our hand and seal. The Class of 7955 of the Bancroft School, Worcester, Massachusetts. ELIZABETH PHILIPS and JEAN TONNA, Attorneys -at-Law

September 21, 1954 Dear Diary, Mirabile dictu! Senior year is here at last! Eight months of zestfulness, testfulness, restless. Resolved: hard work, perseverance, fun! What a momentous year! Will I be accepted at THE college? Must work hard. November 24, 1954 Dear Diary, What a monster of a test! Something tells me that I didn't exactly pass it. Could I help it if a call from Harmouth College interrupted the grinding? Anyway I've been thinking, college isn't THAT important. Exterminating is now my chosen profession. And for now, well, thank goodness the turkey was invented. No school tomorrow! January 7, 1955 Dear Diary, Uh-oh! Guess what? Tomorrow is le jour de mort: Scholastic Aptitude Exams! I'm not worried about the Math because even the simple two and two computation stumps me; the English has me quite perturbed.
This afternoon I went over the words in "Thirty Days To A Nervous Breakdown," and I'm certain that I know them. Just ask me. A philasmatist studies rocks. I guess I'm wellprepared. It's six thirty p.m. now, and I'm going to bed. Mrs. Peckham said to make sure that we have a good rest. Wish me bonne chance! April 5, 1955 Dear Diary, Whew! I feel like a heroine! Yes, I survived all the College Boards and the Spring Dance. Gaudeamus igitur. Guess I'll start on my source theme tonight. Hm-m. What shall I write about? June 10, 1955 Dear Diary, I can't believe it; it's all over; the end! Today is Graduation; and although I never did effect all my resolutions, I've had great fun. Believe it or not, I was accepted at THE college. Wonderful news isn't it, but . . . Oh, no! I'm a Freshman all over again!! RUTH TALAMO

Juniors THE BANCROFT COLLEGE FOR EXCEPTIONAL WOMEN The Class of '56 was so depressed That they formed a college at their own behest. For Dean of Women they flipped a coin, Harriet won, then asked all to join. Megaron Hall at W. A. Was Betty's choice for a place to stay. Caroline vowed entrants wouldn't be crude, Etiquette test was the Aptitude. Dean of Admissions, Betsy, the whiz, Devised the Pottery Achievement Quiz. Ellie passed, she was so glad She'd turned down the U. of Trinidad. The intrepid designer, Sandra Locke, Made of our uniforms a fetching frock. The Poet Laureate was Linda Griff, They vied for her at old Radcliffe. Sandra F. teaches math-idiocies, It annoys her when pupils say, One question, please?Marcia's the head of the Driving School,
And sets the example by breaking the rule. The dramatic professor, Barbara J., Often exclaims, -Oh frabjous day!' The study of Humor Throughout the Years, Is taught by the redoubtable Sally Sears. Home Economics by Sandra B., Is the course that's passed most easily. Basket Weaving by the swimming pool, Is Nancy's favorite at our school. Sally Poor tackles her books with glee And studies for the M.R.S. degree. Joyce got in for her basketball skill And attends in her gym suit, the one with the frill. On the school's escutcheon there was but one blot, Linda Holbert, her application forgot! Some day you shall pass through these hallowed doors, So look to the future, young Sophomores . . .

-J learner s Crew
An old sailor sat on an overturned barrel on a beach, and gazed out to sea at a steamer as it slowly progressed in the direction of the Pierpont ing away. It was nearly empty of fuel, and was therefore not making Goodspeed. The sailor sent a hearty call ringing out to the captain: "Yer Stratton the course! Keep a comm'!' The old ship coasted alongside the quay, and soon the captain's orders became audible: "It's as black as Doomsday! . . . Lytle lantern! You, Mister Jackstraw, Seder the mooring out there! Is that you, Mister Screw-eye? Tell me, is the glass rising or falling? Now, ye lubbers over there, the Clarkson the dock. Give him this message. You durn fool dawdlers, quit that sneerin'. There'll be no annoyin' and Harrison aboard this freight!" The sailor now boarded the ship and greeted the captain. The latter replied: "Tis a pretty sight ye make,friend, after a double fortnight sharing my victuals with this crew o'snails! But let me tell ye, Nelson was whooping it up and he fell over the rail, and I never saw Fowler weather in the span o' my life!" "What's this about Nelson? Spin the yarn!" 'Wal, Nelson was neglectin' his job, waltzin' aroun' th' deck with his broom, when of a sudden he thought he saw a whale. He peered into the ocean and some confounded wise salt came up behind him, shouted 'Ahoy there!' and gave him a shove! He was down so long we thought he was playin' tiddlywinks with the crabs!" One mate said, "I'll be blowed! He sank like lead!" Then he eyed the cook and said, "Must be what he et — you served him petti-Johnson the day 'afore, didn't ye? That cereal's for the gulls, not us!" The clerk was real thoughtful; he said, "Bick nellson out of the watch! Ah Sibley cawn't beah this croo-el-ty!" When I got t' the scene, I spoke sharp: "Ahoy, ye clowns!
Jacobson the ladder- make him come down, Patch! I don't care a Whit-ney then for Nelson or this voyage, but we've gotta git him! Grab the fish net, Booth of ye mates! Allen you a hand!" Wal, suh, we saved Nelson but, scant the loss would ha' been t' me, if he'd stayed down thar forever." "Haw, haw, haw! Say, need any repairs on yer ship?" "Yep, come take a look." Meanwhile I'll pin ye another short un. Now we was at supper and I was in a downright unpleasant frame o' mind. The boys was all careless, (their elbows was in th' soup). One fellow, Pitch, made a request for better grub, right to my face! He said, "I miss my favorite dish. Haslem prey pie ever been served on this ship, captain?" Then come the last straw: I'll be jigged if'n Jacob, didn't come bustin' in, pale as Hecate's ghost, and gaspin', "W-we're r-runnin' into a-f-f-f-fodge, a-afedge, a h-hedge, a Hodgkinson-ny st-st-st-steer us sostraight? That lubber shore put on an awful appearance! Thar was foam on his Brown we could hear the wind a' roarin' outside. The fact bein' thet we really was headin' fer a hedge on land. Our bloomin' steersman said land'ud apPierson as the mist cleared! Wal you guessed it. The mist didn't clear, an' we was eenamost marooned in the hedge! But by good luck the tide's comm n' in set us free." "A mighty interestin' adventure, cap'n! Now, what want ye to have this floor laid with— Tyler cork?" "I reckon a new set o' wooden planks ud do fine, m' friend, and thanks fer yer pains." I will say that the captain's floor was well repaired, and the steamer, with abundance of supplies, set out again to sea. JOAN SIBLEY, Class of '57

Morning, evening, noon, and night Our freshman class is ever bright. Hard we struggle, long and well Under teachers' learned spell. All through the eventful term, We try our best to cram and learn. Soon our mid-years will be here We'll challenge them without a tear. Now for Waterville skiing lark, Then home again for mid-year marks. To books once more we turn with zest Hoping to prepare for every test. To mark the beginning of a happy time, The dance in March turned out sublime. Our spring vacation, a big success, Returning was hard we must confess. And so our finals bring us to The end of a year both gay and blue. As freshmen we have had much fun, A loyal spirit we have won. So on Bancroft we leave our mark, While later on when we embark, We'll leave our friendship, strong and true To all new girls wearing grey and blue.

rade We, the Class of 1955, believing that we are of weak minds but, nevertheless, recognizing the uncertainty of our scholastic life, declare this to be our last will and testament: The following begeouth their most outstanding features or abilities: Bill Adorns—One jar of vaseline to Bobby Ladish in hopes that he will know what to use it for.
Linda Farnum—Her unusual talent at getting the message across under extremely difficult conditions to Sally Dewey.
Cliff Albrecht—His remaining package of Life Savers to Mr. Porter's select group.

Jean Tonna: Fine, thank you. 24th — Overheard while our feet are being tested: "Miss Pike, are my arches 20/20?" 25th — Madrigal tryouts are held today.

T. P.: "Have you tried the Mercury dealer yet? Ask for Mr. Smith." Louise A.: "Tell 'em Groucho sent you." D. T. P.: "Well, REALLY, Louise! Thank you so VERY much!" 8th — We discover that the girls in the outlandish costumes are only the Freshmen being initiated. 12th — Even though History may not be our strongest subject, we all know enough not to appear in school today because Columbus was born on this date. 13th — It's back to the books again and we are confronted with Diagnostic Reading Tests. 14th -- At morning assembly Ellen Taylor tells us about all the facets of World Service. 15th — Miss Robichaud: "What are the advantages of excurrent trees?" Marianne: "You can use them for Christmas trees." 19th — Lecturer Donald MacMillan shows us pictures of his fascinating trip to the North. 24th — Today, we, the Senior Class, have received the immortal book, "DENT." Here's to future essays, questions, ARGUMENTS!
26th — Class Seven gives a very exciting production of "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves." (Oh! Those dancing girls!) 27th — Betsy P.: "I don't think most of the kids know the unwritten rules. I think they should WRITE them down." 29th — J. Ellsworth: "There has been an extra 'Scarlet Letter' in my desk for a few days.

NOVEMBER 2nd — Marianne declares that she is happy the U. S. is as "loaded" as it is. (We think she means "located.") 5th — Aujourd'hui, on a organise un cercle francais ici a Bancroft.

Ai.
Mr. Wyman's talk by stating: "The battle of the sexes goes on forever because there is too much fraternizing with the enemy." 21st — Bucky tells the girls who are going to try out as models that they should bring heels. She defines these as shoes. (Thanks for the clue.) 24th — Class Six, with the assistance of the Senior Class chorus, presents the annual Thanksgiving Play. 29th — It has been the general consensus that the dispute has been dropped; but this morning Mrs. Farnunn contributes her woman's point of view and disagrees completely with Mr. Wyman.

DECEMBER 2nd — Congratulations to Martha Ann Palmer, who has been chosen "Mary" in the Christmas Pageant. 3rd — The Juniors give a very successful J.P. tonight.

16th — Two new features are added to our annual Christmas Party: Santa Claus appears in the janitor's paperbasket collector and foreign carols are sung by the French, Spanish, and Latin classes. The Pageant proves to be most lovely, and now we go home for a sixteen-day VACATION! JANUARY 3rd — Well rested (maybe not so rested) but satiated with parties and pleasure, we return to school. Most of us make our resolutions: hard work, better marks. 5th — The Seniors are unusually quiet and attentive in Math review today.

Afterwards we are quickly revived with some wonderful food at Mrs. Peckham's home. 11th — Mr. Stockdale comes back to Bancroft with Taj Mahal. This time he tells us about his trip to Mexico. We squirm just a bit when we learn that fried worms are an appetizing dish in that country! 14th — Sandra Farber's new name for Mr. Wyman is Mr. Problem. It seems that she is just getting revenge for the time he said that she was thirty-seven cents old. 18th —We learn of the hardships in Labrador when Dr. Miller shows us pictures and tells us about his exciting trip. 20th — After studying the signatures at the bottom of the Constitution, Mrs. Farnum comes to the conclusion that their penmanship is far superior to ours.
25th — The Class Five Play is a great success. We all enjoy it very much. 29th — Carol K.: "When the clerk asked us what we wanted, we told him we were just browsing and he informed us that 'browse' is a synonym for 'eat grass.'"

FEBRUARY 1st — Carol K.: "There will be a gingerbread MAN sale next Thursday." Louise A.: "Here's your chance, girls!" 2nd-4th -- We prove to the teachers how much we have learned (or how much we have not learned) and sorrowfully take our mid-year exams. 5th — Miss Pike, Miss Lightman, and Miss Robichaud take a majority of the girls to Waterville Valley to recover from mid-years. 7th — Bancroft welcomes Ellie Davies to the Junior class. 8th — Mr. Miller, cartoonist for "Lady of the Bookshelf," demonstrates his technique.

tures of their friends, at school that is." 17th — The four classes present very amusing workshop plays. It will be difficult to choose the winner. 18th — The Blue-Grey basketball game was full of action. It was certainly very close, but the Blues won, 31-30. This game tied both teams with ten ribbons each. 21st — The Sophomore Class is the winner in the workshop plays! 22nd — Class Eight gives an excellent performance of "Penrod." The boys' chorus was most enjoyable. 23rd — Betsy P. makes her confused plea for five ushers. 25th — School closes for Spring Vacation and the Social Committee makes the gym most gay with painted croquet wickets, mallets, and balls. 26th — The Spring Dance is a great success and everyone agrees that it is the best we have ever had.

If you are willing to work only on your own ideas, you limit yourself to the capacity of one man. Here at Johnson we have long been proud of our team. Without teamwork we could not produce the customersatisfying volume of specialty wires. Our team is spread throughout the plant and in the laboratory, all over the plant where expert inspectors follow through each order to the shipping department where wire is wrapped with care and securely packed for shipment. Here, individual effort is compounded in the team.
