For helpful teachers who have shared Their stores of wisdom deep, And who the charms of books have bared Whose mem’ries we shall keep, We thank thee Alma Mater.

For loyal friends whose constancy We cherish in our hearts, Whose offering of amity A sense of love imparts, We thank thee Alma Mater.

For habits learned of careful thought And questions laid at rest, For high ideals of conduct taught By those who know us best, We thank thee Alma Mater.

For all those priceless benefits How many who can say? Which Bancroft’s atmosphere transmits To us throughout each day, We thank thee Alma Mater.

I am Eloise I am sixteen I go to Bancroft That's a school I like Bancroft because there’s so much to do Everyone knows who I am I am a nuisance Mr. Tiffany says so And he ought to know, for heaven's sake— He's the headmaster I am often brought up in Student Council And they talk, talk, talk About me, ELOISE I am always late I absolutely dislike getting up on time My day is rather full I roam around the halls in study periods I yawn, yawn, yawn in classes Then I have to see Mr. Wyman about a math problem I absolutely hate math Or go to recess and eat cookies Oo-o-o-o-o, I absolutely love cookies Getting bored is not allowed Sometimes I have water fights in the locker room Sometimes I run up and down the corridors, yelling,

And the teachers get mad, mad, mad Here's what I think about Boys Food Vacation Mail Here's what I like to do Pretend I have no homework J am sleeping I have vacation tomorrow I have unlimited cuts Oo-o-o-o-o-o, I absolutely love cuts At one o'clock I have to skibble down to lunch I would rather call room service I would order and then say "charge it, please" In the afternoons I have study periods I wait, wait, wait for three-thirty I absolutely love three-thirty Sometimes I have to go and see Mrs. Peckham My marks are going down, down, down I would rather not work But that's all right After all, I'm only a normal JUNIOR MOLLY TAYLOR, '58 j'with apologies to Kay Thompson)

Outside it was snowing, so windy and cold, But inside twas warmed by the Soph'mores, I'm told.

Helen was dreaming of where she would go To ski the next day on the new-fallen snow.

The place was at Arden's, by the bright, cheery fire, And the beautiful cake was from Penny's kind sire.

Caroline was engrossed with a very good book. Where? Over there, in that small, quiet nook.

Lynda was showing us pictures of horses, While the ravenous Sophomores ate second courses.

Sue was outside chopping wood for the blaze, To see those chips fly put Sue in a daze.

Sitting down at the table, among a large group, Were Cass, Dot, and Genie, the pony-tail troupe.

Duchess was smiling at all who went by, And at the beautiful cake, Janet gazed with a sigh.

Betsy was laughing and just couldn't quit, While Connie was sighing 'bout the new Elvis hit.

Carole was saying, "With all this new snow, Let's put on a 'Silas-Discovering-Eppie' show!"

Some girls were wondering, but Judy P. knew That Nancy was home, quite sick with the flu.

Mary Ann was measuring her slow-growing hair In hopes that a chignon soon would be there. Now you’ve met all, except one Soph'more Miss, And that’s Judy A., the one who wrote this. JUDITH L. AXELROD, '59

As I browsed around an antique shop Upon a distant shore, I found a perfect gazing ball Which recalled old gypsy lore.

The modern look in houses today, Which Lynda so designs, Is certain to please most everyone, No matter what their line.

As I looked into the mystic ball, I saw to my surprise, Figures of my classmates Appear before my eyes.

Her face is not seen upon the stage But actors know her well, For Carole's the one who directs the plays, Which are so sure to sell.

1967 was the year That told of their success, Their hopes and wishes are now fulfilled, Contentment they possess.

Duch and Judy come into the scene, Both devoted young wives, Content to do their household chores, They lead such happy lives.

Genie appears in the magic ball, Spinning her records with glee, She's won a place in the music world, Success, as a disc jockey.

Judy A. in white, diploma in hand, Leaves college far behind, Soon hopes to be in white again, with Marriage this time in mind.

Next Helen and Arden come into the scene, On skis they've won their fame. Peerless are they on their downhill runs, Many a cup they claim.

Amidst a room of eager faces, Janet teaches her knowledge, So that in the future years, All may go to college.

From coast to coast her cakes are renowned, For Penny her business has boomed. Her new-found frosting that people so love, Has won her the title, "Tycoon.''

A sketch in Vogue now catches my eye, The drawing a stylish gown, The signature is Nancy T’s, A name that's of great renown.

In the chemistry lab, Betsy is seen, Her test tubes clean and bright; She's assistant to a research whiz, And works from morn to night.

A sportswear shop on the Florida coast Is crowded with many a tourist, The owners are Sue and Mary Ann, This life they can't resist.

Next Connie appears all jewel-bedecked, Laden with mink and sables; In March she's bound for Paris showings, Buying gowns with Dior labels.

A cloud appears on the gazing ball, And vaguely I can see

While sitting in our balcony seats, One evening at the Met, We spied a face from Bancroft days, Dot, singing "Juliet."

And now I return the gazing ball To its familiar place, No longer will it reveal to me, A former classmate's face.

Her name appears on new book jackets, Her writing has such style That none can surpass Caroline's prose, She'll be first for quite a while.

Cassie surrounded with question marks, What, oh what will she be?

JUDY PHILLIPS CONNIE SMITH NANCY TARASOV

There is a ladder standing tall, Reaching to our goals And here are Freshmen climbing it As the year unfolds. Each rung represents our progress As we climb to reach the top. Each one holds a new challenge, And we ll ne'er turn back or stop. Our class is rich in musical fame; We boast many excellent voices. In athletics, too, our girls excel As Pikie really rejoices.

We must not forget our actresses Who are tops when in a play. Mrs. Berman teaches the dramatic skills Which the girls can well display. And so as years go on and on, We re striving for our goals Climbing on and ever upward, All in different roles. And thus I write of eager girls, Those in my own class Faithfully working and studying hard; Flail to each deserving lass. DIANNE HYDE, '60

(D ig hill Blue Moon Travel Agency '57 Graduation Lane Worcester, Massachusetts Dear Sirs, Please send tickets to the following places for the CLASS of 1957 at BANCROFT SCHOOL:

One ticket for Timmy to the top of a peak To study the weather week upon week.

A ticket to Scotland where Meri’s plaid skirts Will be right in tune with Lynee’s sissy shirts.

Holt will go from his fine country home To the dreadfully ruined city of Rome.

Donna for Sweden is happily bound Where blonde hair like hers is so often found.

A ticket for Debbie to straighten a fix, For she'll be the second Miss Dorothy Dix.

Mari Lynn Tell to the Arctic must go To get rid of that tan we all envy so.

Johnny Shipman for Florida longingly yearns, So he won’t need the lamp to get more-a-da burns.

A ticket to Paris where Karen, the seamstress, Shall create for many girls a beautiful dream dress.

Kathy we fear was born ten years too soon, She wants a ticket to fly to the moon.

Marianne Andreson, with her pretty long hair Will fly to the South Seas via Bel Air.

To Longwood a ticket where Polly can whack it, She really is tops with her hand on a racquet.

Carol and Sue will need a ticket for two To fly to the place where the green grass grows blue.

First Row, left to right: Mary Cushman, Susan Seder, M aureen M cGady, Donna Johnson. Second Row, left to right: Karen Wahlstrom, R e b e c c a Barton, Anne Massey, Arlene Johnson, Faith Barrington, Kathleen Sessions, Deborah Guptill. Third Row, left to right: John Griefen, Rand Herron, Edwin Place, III, David Wahlstrom. Absent when picture w as taken: Alexis Cotsidas, Frank Pfeiffer, Jr.

A ticket to Georgia where our swimmer, Johnny, Can spend every day in the beautiful Suwanee.

A ticket so Heather can grow near a cactus, And one to a gym where William can practice.

Give them a ticket to Elvis, not Bach, For Arlene and Faith are rollers-and-rock.

Rand will not need any ticket to start, He'll go a long way with his talent in art.

A ticket for Frankie, because of his “ Noodles," To Italy where there are oodles of noodles.

Dave or Ed will use his own ticket For football, or baseball, or squash, or cricket.

Maureen M cGady to Paris shall go, To model smart clothes as she did in our show.

The U. S. A. is for pony-tailed Ann, W ho’ll write her own ticket with her fabulous hand.

Sue Brownell will have her career made, When she gets a ticket to the Ice Capade.

Mari Louise, of whom w e’re all fond, W ill use her transfer all the world round.

A ticket for Alexis to leave all the pies, And go on a cruise under tropical skies.

We can see Elsie all dressed in her togs To go to the Arctic and work with her dogs.

Bob needs no ticket to ride on a train, He'll get there faster in his own jet plane.

A ticket to New York and the United Nations, Where Derry can help with her code translations.

A ticket for Becky and Tuck to the West, But not just anywhere, Wyoming is best.

So now we won't wonder where the eighth grade went, They've crossed all their bridges; ’twas a year well spent.

Sue Seder’s a problem, where will she roam? For look at the fun she’s having at home.
