Rand ff' Many of us are embarking on a new career, the rebuilding of a torn and troubled world. Amherst has played such an important part in the forming of our background, habits. and character, that we feel the symbolism expressed in this Goldbug will help immortalize Amherst and its high school in our memories. Let us never forget this peaceful hamlet in the Connecticut Valley, and may we strive to make international living correspond to the mode of life we have found here. mfr Y S., Q S X Y sk X x iw Q y if elf CWD QFD cw? cl,3 Q19 cf? cj?

From Afterwhiles ' The Bobbs-Merrill Company Straight and strong the young tree stood Held high its graceful arms of wood In praise to God. 'ii' Beneath its kind and cooling shade, A group of children long had played And loved the tree. A cruel disease spread through its frame, And yet its shade remained the same. Its faith in God. And like this tree, we saw him fall. Courageous, kind, and loved by all, But finally free.

It was not perhaps so much that he disliked books, as that he liked people. He was always interested in the,rest of us. Like a good many boys, he enjoyed mechanical things-shop courses, manual training mechanical drawing, and engineering studies. One could hardly call him a natural, out- standing athlete but he played a good game of football, because he was intelligent, quick- thinking, and persistentg a player who didn't need a coach to drive him, but one who went into a game fearlessly. We never quite realized how fearless he was, until we learned how he faced the terrible disease that took him away- faced it with never a trace of fear. Strong men have broken under lighter burdens, but Ted never broke, nor gave an inch-yet he was only a boy. ' Ted never tried to attract attention to him- self. Maybe that was because he was thought- ful, and kind. He wanted the other fellow to have a chance. He always seemed to adapt himself to those around him-it was easy for the rest of us to get along with him. We liked him,-because he liked us, and was himself warm and friendly. He made us feel that he liked us allg he wasn't choosey'i or cliqueyl', he couldnit have been snobbish if he had tried. His quiet, warm smile showed him as he really was. As he was with people, so he was with activities-too much an all-round fellow to go all out -for any one thing. He liked all the jolly, wholesome things. He joined the Model Airplane Club and the Hi-Y, he was an Air Scout and a Life Scout. He had a steady sense of balance that kept him from being one-sided. This sounds as though Ted had all the time he wanted, but he didn't. Five years ago, when he was only 13, his father was killed, and Ted had to begin then to be the man of the family for his mother and- the three younger children. All his spare time was spent in working, work which made of .him a man while he was yet a boy It would have hardened and hurt some boys, but not Ted. It seemed only to make him more quiet and steady, more dependable and interested in others, and, above all, always kind. As we look back now, his kindness and his courage seem the two things we shall remember longest about Ted. He made himself seem like the rest of us, and yet he was more unlike us than we ever realized. For he simply didn't know how to be cruel or even unkind. And he never backed away from a tough assignment-not even when he knew he faced the toughest one any boy or man can ever have to face. His kindness, his friendly handshake, and personality will always be with us, his classmates. We shall never forget Ted Madden. a 'I' , 7 ' 1 i i ,hw-1 Y Ay 1 fn! ,pf we NWDV1-rf! 1 it ie, ,w ,S - 5--N B X. - . I9 xx' .

Q . ,Q YQ 53,12 ffg 4,9 E r 'L WX'X R MEMORIES THAT LINGER CLASS HISTCJRY From its early beginning in the Junior High School, the group of young stu- dents who were to comprise the class of 1947 lay the cornerstone to a class history, which for many years to come will place itself at the top . The class of 1947 was not just a huddle of high school students over-anxious with the desire to graduate, but rather a group of young people, whose first thought was to enrich the democratic tradition and renown of Amherst High School. Most of the members of that Sophomore class are present to march across the stage of Stockbridge Hall, and needless to say, many events of the by-gone days of their first year in high school will be remembered by them. A young fellow from East Leverett, Malcolm Modrzakowski, full of ambition and poten- tial leadership, was elected president of the Sophomore class. Under his able leadership, and the cooperation of the other officers, sparkling Louis Bias, and popular Edith McKemmie, the class of '47 began to accumulate its fame. Sopho- mores were taking positions on all of the first teams in sports. Malinoski, Bias, Garvey ,and Correale were four such boys. 1944 saw the organization of a few ambitious sophomores into a new debating team, full of spirit and ideas. The class did well in dramatics also. Any denial of this would be in complete dis- regard of the fine performances of Iris Bain, Joan France, Marilyn Montague, and Sig Odegard in Curses, the Villain is Foiledu, in the one-act play contest of April, and the fine acting and humor shown by John Canavan, Sig Odegard, and Fred Luddy, in Mr. MacKillop's never to be forgotten musical comedy, The Grass is Always Greener . By the spring of 1945, which saw the defeat of the Nazis in Europe, and the slow but definite decline of Japanese power in the Far East, Amherst High School made many contributions in money and in spirit to the great fight for freedom. It was at this time, that the class of 1947 was well recognized as the potential storehouse of new and greater contributions to A.H.S. history, and to the country at large. This recognition of service and ambition was to become more and more ap- parent, as most of the same young people returned as Juniors in the fall of 1945. Not just the war in Europe, but the war against all the free peoples of the world was proclaimed at an end. Ambition now turned to the struggle for peace. In the little community of Amherst, no responsibility for participation was greater than that of the students, more definitely the seniors of 1946, who graduated into this world of diplomatic strife. As members of '47 bade good luck to these graduates, their own thoughts turned not to the remote corners of the peace-making nations, but rather to the problems of better education and cleaner sports. Amherst High became a small but highly important Dr0Ving ground for the high ideals which were being set in motion the world over. Not insignificant and local were the student's problems, but essentially important and far-reaching. Sports was the big name in the fall of '45 and football was first on the list in this popular phase of school life. The class of '47 offered many of its athletes to that strong eleven of Coach Williams, which toppled Northampton, 14-6. The trend toward, and the leadership in, dramatics was growing constantly, and in Little Women several of the class's drama-bound members: John DeRose, Joan Davenport, John Larson, Ann Elder, Jane Cavanaugh, Jane Jewett, Fred Luddy, and Dorothy Blair, contributed to a performance of this popular play, f-fi Q1 241 an Q1 .61 Q41 Q41 '41 29.1 Ch 'V 1 Q4 1 211 '31 91 141 Ei..

All these early events followed the ballot campaign and election of class -officers. John CJ. FJ Canavan was elected president with Hubert Bell and Edith Mc- Kemmie serving in the posts of Vice-President, and Secretary-Treasurer res- pectively. Debating resumed once more, and the local team did well in the Connecticut Valley League. The great event in sports, however, was that sudden bounce of the basketball. The remarkable team of that year not only captured the Hampshire League title, but in sportsmanlike manner nearly won the Western Mass. Tournament at M.S.C. Bias, Malinoski, Garvey, Matusko, Correale, Worthley, and Drake were playing their best for old dear A.H.S. After this highly successful season, the trend toward learning was in the spot- light, and the announcement of new Pro-Merito members was a pleasing one to many of the class of '47. In the spring came another fine dramatic production. This time it was The Day is Bright , by Norman Myrick, a former A.H.S. faculty-member. This performance saw the old faithfuls and a newcomer, Bob Garrabrants, making the show a gladdening success. Sports loomed high once again as the Hurricanes won the baseball title in the Hampshire League. This game saw the last participation in Amherst High athletics by Louis Bais. Lou with his speed, smile, and love of sports, had made an enviable record on the fields and in the gyms of many schools. Before the end of the school year Helen Mieczkowski won first prize in a nationwide bookkeeping contest, and Hugh Bell and Fred Luddy were elected to attend Boys State. '47 was a -class becoming more and more acclaimed. The class was a tower of leadership in sports, and in scholastic achievement. The finale of greatness and recognition came in the senior year, when with a joyful opening, the class started doing Hgreat things once more. In the early fall of 1946 Mike Garvey won iirst prize in a state-wide C. A. P.t essay contest. John Malinoski and Edie McKemmie were leading the HI-Y and TRI-S respectively, with their clubs' motto of higher living in mind at all times. The ever-smiling Marilyn Montague was elected class president and towering Carley Matusko was chosen as Vice-President. Edie McKemmie, who had been Sec- retary-Treasurer for the previous two years, was heartily re-elected. In sports, the hard fighting football team had the stalwarts of '47 back again. Bill Clark led the team to a 19-6 triumph over the old rival, Northampton. The seniors made another thrust into dramatics, as John Canavan and Fred Luddy snatched up leads in the Junior play, Out of the Frying Pan . Debating shared the spotlights also, and in this year, 1946, the team really went to town . The swimming team under Joe Rogers, took many Hrsts, as Hugh Bell, Pat Kennedy, and Mitch Jacque never hesitated to break records in many of the meets. Ben Kightlinger became president of Pro-Merito, as seniors were stead- fastly becoming members. Gold Bug work was at a peak now, and with Dottie ligair and Hugh Bell as co-editors, the year book of the class of 1947 was taking s ape. ' With the coming of spring, interclass plays topped all news, as the stars of the class of '47 offered one of the best drama productions yet, in Jinxed . A small cast comprised of John Larson, John Canavan, Robert Garrabrants, Ann Elder, and Fred Luddy, made the performance a meritable and memorable one. As a final offering in the sports field, Garvey Drake, Mosakewicz, Worthley, and Correale were back again, bedecked in baseball uniforms. The season was a favorable one and a fine climax to the high school sports careers of many of the class athletes. In years which saw the end of a great war and the birth of an atom-conscious civilization, the class of 1947 took its place on the list of graduating classes. As a small but important part of the world of tomorrow , the students left a bulwark of acclaim to their school-- nobler and better than all other schools, Amherst, oh here's to youll WHO'S WHO Boy who has done most for A.H.S.

CLASS CF 1948 When the students of the class of l948 entered as sophomores their spirit and enthusiasm, both in scholastic and extra-curricular activities, was recognized by everyone as a sound basis for rapid success and great contribution to the school--it was a class of leaders. The members of '48 have filled the honor roll as well as the sports' calendar, the play bills, the membership lists of all clubs, the Student Council, the cheerleading team, the Graphic staff, and the band and orchestra. They have always chosen their leaders wisely, for the positions of president, vice-president, and secretary-treasurer in their sophomore year were hlled by Bill Archibald, Joe Waskiewicz, and Eleanor Moran. ln their junior year they showed the same thought, and appreciation for ability with Bev Reynolds president, Dick Stedman vice-president, and Carol Orrell secretary-treasurer. This junior class has contributed so much to the school spirit of A.H.S. that the class of 1947 is proud to bequeath its positions as seniors to the class of 1948.

It seemed to contain . . . . . . b wizards as well as wits, and its outstanding quality was the way its mem ers were able to stick together in all organizations and activities. Both boys and girls 'oined in the sports' parade and backing their efforts were the cheerleaders and J , members of the band. Their names decked the honor roll as proof of their scholastic abilityl That they also contributed to the work of the Graphic staff, dramatic circles, and many organizations and clubs of A.H.S., is further evidence of their responsible and willing attitude. A show of intelligence appeared in their choice of class officers, who represented their classmates honestly and re- sponsibly. Walter Cutler was chosen president, Helen Kozikowski vice-pres- ident, and Henry Boulanger secretary-treasurer. This group of students looks forward to its years as a junior and then a senior class as it continues to uphold standards of A.H.S. and carve its own design in the history of our school.

'Q' ,V Q ,, ,'-9 Q, 1 fgj CHEERLEADERS 'ai Amherst High has had a snappy, loyal group of cheerleaders this year. Headed by Barbara Donoghue and Peggy Grady, this team spurred on the boys to greater efforts. Eleanor Moran, Carol Orrell, and Beverly! Reynolds made up the rest of the team. Much time and thought went into making up new cheers: many more hours 'into practice, but the zip, good sportsmanship, and team work made the hard work worthwhile. Surely as the boys went out to play foot- ball or basketball, the knowledge that these five zestful girls were there leading their schoolmates in lusty cheers, whether victory or defeat was their lot, must have given the players a feeling of unity, and an urge to live up to the cry of Yeah, Amherst, Yeah, Team! Of the many who tried out, Janet Roche, Anne McKeeman, Kitty Hughes, and Norma Davis were Donohue, Orrell, Moran, Grady, Reynolda. chosen as next year's cheerleaders. Although the 47 season wasn't the best, there was plenty of excite- ment and thrills in every game. John Malinoski and Bill Clark played an important part behind the line. Bill Worthley, Modrzakowski, and Herman Correale also played well in the backfield. That fighting line had Garvey and Matuszko at ends. Stedman and that Wildcat from Walpole , Welch, at tackle. Chick and Harry who played hard were at guard, with Red at center, backing up that line with all he had. Amherst had real sportsmanship, whether on top or losing and they never gave up. Their minds were made up to take 'Hamp no matter what happened, in the best game Amherst played all season with everything clicking and 'Hamp taking the worst beating it has had since 1939, the score being Amherst 20, 'Hamp 6. The season ended with 3 wins, 4 defeats, and 1 tie, but the team was a great one and did justice to the good name which is always a part of their clean fighting spirit. , First Row: Cary, Bradley, Snyder, Rogers, Allen, Boulanger.

Lacroix Ably coached by Joe Rogers, the Amherst High School swimming team went through its season with good material, but not enough of it, as usual. There- fore, the results were only average. One highlight was the defeat of Holyoke early in the schedule. In the Western Counties Tournament the Collegetown swim- mers placed second. The high-scoring lads were Mitch Jacque, Joe Rogers, Jr., John Thies, Pat Kennedy, and Hugh Bell., ,Kennedy and Bell were forced out of action in the latter part of the season. Gilbert Bigelow, who has yet to enter high school as well as Don Bell, and Henry Boulanger, a freshman, are among scintillating young talent. Since only two men will be lost by graduation. prospects for a better year in '48 are bright. SWIMMING I' 4 First Row: Matuszko, D.

They started off the season against Easthampton and lost 48 to 35 to a very good team as statistics will prove. Amherst had some good men this year although it took them a while to get started, but when they did they were hard to stop. There were two tall players on the team, Mike Garvey at center, Carl Matuszko at for- ward: and John Malinoski was high scorer. At guards were Herman Correale, that fighting junior Don Pettijohn, Bill Worthley whom we all know as the flash, and dapper Red Drake. Coach Williams had a team in good condition.

The baseball season proved to be another high spot in the course of athletics for the year. Mike Garvey did most of the hurling for the Hurricane nine, but the other moundsmen, Hanieski and Tillson, saw some action. Tom Welch spent his time behind the plate as the other half of the battery. 'The infield saw Swift, Kowaleck, and Koblinski, among others, snatching up fast grounders and . Whipping the ball around for some 'fast plays. The outfield had such stand-bys as Correale and Worthley snagging flies for that last important put-out. Because- of the fact that the team had most of the veterans back from last year, the record for the season was favorable in many ways.
