Class of 1948 CLASS MOTTO WE HAVE CROSSED THE RIVER, BUT THE OCEAN LIES BEFORE US. CLASS COLORS GREEN AND GOLD Evelyn Anderson Gloria Barrett Joan Bean Richard Belanger Shirley Bell Cynthia Brown Elizabeth Butler Donald Cash Catherine Casler Elena Castiglia Esther Duclos Anita Filipe Irene Gagnon Lawrence Kohler HONOR STUDENTS CLASS ESSAYISTS Elizabeth Pierce, Valedictorian Anita Filipe, Salutatorian Claire RoUins Natalie McGonigle Barbara Miller Ruth Mono Jean Parmenter Elizabeth Pierce Claire Rollins Roberta Smith Claire Soares Warren Stromberg Eleanor Tesler Anita Varney Edna Varney Janet Walsh Cynthia Brown Catherine Casler Eleanor Tesler CLASS SONG We have come to graduation The years have swiftly fled But we ' ll still keep pressing forward To the goals that lie ahead. As we travel on through life, friends. We will pleasantly recall The days we spent at A. H. S. Grateful for one and all. Let us not forget our teachers Who have helped us through each year, Nor forget the lessons taught us. Or the pleasures we ' ve had here. As we bid farewell to classmates And on our way we wend May the stars of faith and courage Ever guide us to the end. We have crossed the river. But the ocean lies before us. Our motto guides us on For our life is at its dawn. — Millicent Brooks

Hill We, the Class of 1948, being of sound mind and stout heart (absolutely no comments from underclassmen) do declare this will, signed and sealed on June 11, 1948, to be our last testament revoking any and all others heretofore made by us. Realizing that these precious and highly fascinating character- istics would be of no use in Hollywood, New York, London, or Long Island, we leave them to you-er-underclassmen who we hope will attain the popularity, success, good humor, and brilliance so enjoyed by us. Theresa Brochu leaves her cheerfulness to some lucky junior. Elena Castiglia leaves her sweet manner to Barbara Hall. Frances Chase leaves her humorous im- iiations to Edwina Hale. David Cody bequeaths his artistic temper- ament to Bob Fisher. Mary Castro leaves laughing; she just told herself one of those jokes. Rita Castro wills her dreamy complexion to Frosh, Thelma Gay. You should be so lucky. Rosemary Clegg leaves two sisters to carry on the Clegg name. Jackie Cole leaves that pleasant person- ability to Jean Swanson 51 . Don Zilch leaves his record of achieve- ments for anyone to try to compete with. My guess is no one will have the courage. Ann Coogan wills her blushing to anyone who would like to appear sweet and inno- cent. (Boys need not apply!) Don Soule leaves his book on Don Soule, Esquire, to startle the freshmen. Marilyn Creedon and Alice Hyde leave their locker, or reasonable facsimile thereof, to Beverly Fuller providing she gets her ap- plication in early. Lillian Martin leavesto purchase her trous- seau. (Some gals get all the luck.) Natalie McGonigle, although a red-head, leaves her good disposition to Gwen Smith 51 also a red-head. Eleanor Merewether leaves to do some- thing about the weather. It never did suit her, since it takes the curl out of her hair. Barbara Miller leaves those clothes and that figure to Carolyn Wells. Wanda Milosh leaves still a rebel at heart. Ruth Mono wills her negligee to the sewing department, so Mrs. Cooney can exhibit it to future classes. There ' ll probably be a boy ' s class next year. Larry Nelson leaves to get a pass. Miss Ott wants to make sure it ' s O. K. for him to graduate. John Nunes wills that wit to Bob Smith 49. Franklin Perry leaves for the Navy and may we add the government got a wonderful specimen period. Norma Provost bequeaths her hair prob- lems to Rita Forget. Ruth Spinney yields her athletic ability to Jackie Mossberg. Phyl Lowe leaves crying. She can ' t bear to leave all her friends. We don ' t blame her. I ' ll bet there ' ll even be a lump in my throat, and I ' m known as Hard-hearted Mike. Clint Gorman leaves to raise a mustache as purty as the one he borrowed for the play. (They tickle!) Irene Chicoine leaves to reduce prices in the A. P. Barbara Johnson leaves her superior short- hand ability to be admired by her under- classmen. Fred Chambers, Richard Belanger, and Robert Holdgate leave in disgrace. They made one mistake in chemistry all year. Shirley Bell leaves her quiet charm to un- derclassman Vivian St. Germaine. Bob Benson leaves all the girls envious. (Such pretty hair.) Robert Billings leaves a long line of worn- out teachers and laughing students. Lorraine Brousseau wills her petiteness and blondeness to Doris Carlson. Cathy Cosier bequeaths her ability to forge passes to Joe Cassidy. He doesn ' t seem to get away with it. Shirley Bennett and Sue Sharpies leave two well-worn canteen cards and the prom- ise of a good time to Nancy Surprenant and Nancy Crecca. Grace Potter and Margie Craig leave a very relieved Mr. Graves and some very dull corridors. Ralph Jordan leaves his quiet mannerisms to anyone who can ' t keep his mouth shut. Frank Pinocci yields his little black book to Bill Swenson. There should be some in- teresting niombers in it. Dave Lyon leaves his ability to get into irouble to the unfortunate BerBer. Hope he never takes chemistry! Houghton ' s and Heger ' s desire for library passes leaves Mr. Spink with writer ' s cramp. I v onder if the boys are studying?
