Ward Manghue John Paltsits Vocational Norman Rau fflLL PORTRAIT FOOTBALL Arigo LaTanzi, Coach Assistants Albert Doucette Russell Johnston Spike Pollock The Wamps, under the able guidance of Coach Arigo LaTanzi, completed their first undefeated season in the history of the high school. Braintree’s redmen finished second in the class C title race, outrnargined by Lawrence Central High School. The two able co-captains who led Braintree to their first undefeated season were tackle, Don ' Moulton, and halfback, Yin Picardi. Yin was high man in the touchdown department on the South Shore with 15. Star fullback John Slauson set a new high scoring second of 95 points. Coach LaTanzi w ill be hampered by the loss of 14 seniors when he starts practice for his 1951 season . GIRLS’ FIELD HOCKEY Alice E. Daughraty, Couch Helen 111 vila The Varsity squad almost broke even for their 1950 season by winning seven and losing six games. The annual con- test with the Cross Country boys was a smashing victory of 4-1 for the girls. The team played at Hingham, Scitu- ate, Stoughton, Randolph, Canton, and North Easton and also several games at home. Sportsmanship was taught to the team throughout the season which helped to soften the heart- breakers they lost. Thanks are due to the coach, Miss Alice Daughraty, Captain Lee Brayton, and the man- agers, Mary Lou Dennehy and Mari- anna Yitagliano, for their “mothering” and for keeping our boisterous band n order. CROSS COUNTRY ’50 Paul V. Toolin, Coach Spike Pollock Coach Toolin added another unde- feated season to his long list by cop- ping seven dual meets, running their total to 33 wins out of 34, over a four- year period. The Cross Country boys include: Co-captain Hugh Huleatt and Bill “Honk” Stevenson, who received second place honors in t he state meet for the second year. In Hugh’s three years of Cross Country running he has only once been beaten in a dual meet, the time he lost his wav on the Quincy course, but still managed to finish sec- ond. The 1951 season looks bright with Red Stevens and Dick Donahue as co-captains. THE WAMPATUCK Constance F. Steelier, Faculty Adviser Jeanne Kenn You say you want to know a little about B. H. S. sports, some gossip, some news, and what talented students we have when it comes to literary features? Well, I can think of no bet- ter source than The Wampatuck, Braintree High’s quarterly publica- tion. The very capable 1950-51 staff include: Jeanne Kenn, editor-in- chief; Carole Lindblow, Beverly Jones, Judith MacKenzie, Richard Tilton, Ann Sheldon, and Nancy Whyte, news editors; Barbara Smith and Robert Cunningham, columnists; Helen l lvil a and Robert Pollock, sports writers; Rita Chandlei and Frances Matheson, subscriptions; Fred Inkley, Hubert Pauls, Charles Mundt, Robert Bess, Frank Burns, Pauline Pollary, and Allan iden, advertising; Miss Con- stance F. Steelier, Faculty Adviser. LIBRARY Ruth P. Strout, Librarian Barbara Marinella This year Miss Ruth Strout, Librarian, and her assistants displayed numerous exhibitions from the various indus- tries of Braintree and surrounding towns. The library aided students in research work as well as providing books for reading pleasure. Miss Strout was always there ready and willing to help any student desiring aid. The library staff included Elaine King, Judith Charlesworth, Helen alliere, Maude Scott, Grace Newman, Florence Kelly, Frances Matheson, Elizabeth Kirk, Helen Torrey, Janet Peckham, Priscilla Brayton, Carol Bellows, Vivian Burnham, Jane Scholes, Marilyn Hawkinson, Betty Damiao, Marianna Recupero, Joan Ruddy, Barbara Salpi, Joan Rat- cliffe, and Carole MacDonald. THE FRENCH CLUB Mildred R. Richards, Sponsor Bruce Brown The officers of this year’s French Club were: Helen Ulvila, President; Bruce Brown, ice-president; Beverly Jones, Secretary; and Allan Viden, Treasurer. The purpose of the French Club is to further a knowledge of the language and customs of the French. During the meetings conversation was in French as much as possible. The club took an imaginary trip to France on the Isle de France. Because of her travels through France, Miss Richards was able to furnish the group with in- formation about the places and cus- toms of France. The club also en- joyed movies. At the close of each meeting refreshments were served and the members sang the French national anthem, La Marseillaise. ki CHEERLEADERS Alice E. Daughraty, Director Alice Sweezey “ ictory, ictory, That’s our cry!” This familiar cry, heard from the cute, peppy cheerleaders and their loyal Wampville supporters, was the key to the success which the football team encountered for the 1950 season. The girls have really put their hearts and souls into their work, inspiring school spirit on the football field, basketball courts, and in the rallies. The nine Wampettes who proudly spelled out Braintree were: (B) Joan Cushing, (B) Bits Magazu, (A) Claire Delorey, (I) Bita Chandler, (N) Alice Sweezey, captain, (T) Joan LeBoy, (B) Mildred Morgan, (E) Sue Giles, (E) Jo Anne Greene. GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB Mae L. Lindsay, Director Marianna Becupero The Girls’ Glee Club, under the able direction of Miss Mae Lindsay, had a varied schedule of activities. Many of the girls in the glee club par- ticipated in the annual operetta “The Waltz Dream,” which was held in March. In the past, the operettas have brought fame and honor to the high school. One of the most impor- tant of the activities was the Music Festival presented in May. Begin- ning as early as September, Miss Lindsay and the Glee Club worked hard to turn out a grand success. Also in May all the musical organiza- tions participated in the annual Massachusetts Music Festival. JUNIOR RED CROSS Buth P. Strout, Sponsor Janet Peckham Under the able direction of the spon- sor, Miss Buth Strout, Dean of Girls, The American Junior Bed Cross ac- complished many activities. This organization was founded in B.H.S. in 1918. A great number of inter- ested girls from all classes belong to this club which met on Friday after- noons throughout the school year to make favors for veterans’ hospitals. The council members of the organiza- tion were Beverly Everret, sopho- more; Joan Strangford, junior; and Janet Peckham. senior. These girls attended the Metropolitan Chapter meetings held in Boston, on the first Friday of every month, where they learned the accomplishments of other schools in Bed Cross work. I UJIIITfR EPIC 1 H 1 fel !■ m ftl m i B 1 9K jpi Jjyfr S IF fm « $ re 1 wL l V WE SHOOK THE FAMILY TREE Barbara E. Hazel, Director Carole Lindblow “We Shook the Family Tree,” a three- act comedy, was presented by the stu- dents of B.H.S. in the high school auditorium on November 17, 1950, under the direction of Miss Barbara Hazel, assisted by Joanne Dee. The play was adapted for the stage by Perry Clark from the novel written by Hildegarde Dolson. leading roles were played by Jeanette Fahey and W illiam Stevenson. The supporting cast included: Genevieve Rossi, Fred Miller, Larry Simpson. Patricia Havi- land, Robert Lloyd, Jean LeVangie, Bernard Currie, Norma Stadfeld, Doro- thy W right, and Marjorie Youngworth. It was a humorous story of teen-age problems, cleverly protrayed by the cast. YEARBOOK ACTION COMMITTEE Constance F. Stecher, Sponsor Genevieve Rossi The Yearbook Action Committee of 1951 consisted of Carole Lindblow (general chairman). Donald Moulton, Helen I L ila, Janet Bushman, Hubert Pauls, Anne Hayes, and Genevieve Rossi. The supervision of senior news, including senior write-ups. class history, class motto, class poem, class will, and class prophecy, the sale of boosters and senior signatures for the yearbook, and the securing of the vaiious writeups for the activities dur- ing the year were the major duties of the committee. The members also helped in the sponsoring of a year- book dance which raised some of the necessary funds used toward the pay- ment of the yearbook. RIFLE CLUB James L. Jordan, Couch Alan Wilder The Rifle Club started its season in late September and finished in early May. Ten members of the team par- ticipated in the National Rifle Associa- tion postal matches which were held throughout the country. Team mem- bers held shoulder-to-shoulder and postal matches with other local teams, among which were Quincy and North Quincy. Later in the season the four position firing took place. The four positions are prone, sitting, kneel- ing. and standing. On the results of the four position firing was based the qualifications for marksman, sharp- shooter, and expert. There were about forty members in this year’s Rifle Club. i M YEARBOOK DANCE COMMITTEE Co-sponsors Barbara E. Hazel Robert G. Bruce Genevieve Rossi The Yearbook Dance Committee, with Patricia Sullivan acting as general chairman, presented the Yearbook Dance Friday evening, December 1, 1950, in the Braintree High School Gym in order to raise money for the 1951 yearbook. The committee was divided into the following groups: publicity, Hugh Huleatt; decorations, Janet Peckham; tickets, Jeanne Kenn. Music was supplied by Flo Kelly and her orchestra. The dance was con- sidered one of the best of the year. DANCE ORCHESTRA Arthur P. Hauck, Director Florence Kelly Something new was added this year. Thanks to the director of band and orchestra, Mr. Arthur Hauck, B.H.S. had a dance orchestra which con- sisted of a selected group of students who played the saxaphone, clarinet, trombone, piano, trumpet, and drums. This was a wonderful group which was willing to work together. The or- chestra rehearsed every Thursday and it took many hours of hard work by both the students and Mr. Hauck to develop the group. The dance or- chestra played at many occasions throughout the year. BAND Arthur P. Hauck, Director Don MacNeill For many years a band of high calibre has been the tradition in the Braintree High School. The year 1950 was no exception. Under the able direction of Mr. Arthur Hauck, a fine concert band attained an excellent rating in the Annual State Music Festival. It participated at all the football games giving intricate marching demon- strations. An outstanding contribu- tion of the band to the musical activi- ties of the school was the program presented at the annual May Festival. A number of marches, solos, overtures, and novelty compositions were well received by an appreciative audience. Congratulations, Mr. Hauck, and band members! STUDENT COUNCIL John Leva, President Sponsors Edna M. Parker Harrison W. Jordan Braintree High’s Student Council started off on the right foot this year by removing a sizable deficit and building up a rather handsome treas- ury. Due to the favorable treasury balance the council was able to send representatives to the Eastern Divi- tion of the Massachusetts Student Councils conferences where a wealth of information was obtained. This in- formation has been very influential in the various activities of the council. The Student Council is very grateful for the support and enthusiasm shown by the cheerleaders in supporting the council sponsored dances and othei activities. BOYS’ GLEE CLUB Mae L. Lindsay, Director Ralph N. Annis The Boys’ Glee Club, under the direc- tion of Miss Mae Lindsay, accom- panied by Gail Osthagen, participated in many outside engagements at the Republican Women’s Club of Brain- tree, P.T.A., and Fathers and Sons’ Night. They broadcast frequently over WJDA on “The Braintree Schools on the Air.” On December 21. the boys sang Christmas carols at the Blue Hill Rockery. The Glee Club formed the male chorus of this year’s fine operetta “A Waltz Dream.” They enjoyed singing at the May Music Festival and the State Music Festival. Freshman boys were well represented in this year’s club. GIRLS ' CHOIR Mae L. Lindsay, Director Gloria Marockino The Braintree High School Girls’ Choir, directed by Miss Mae Lindsay and accompanied by Helen Ulvila, concluded a very successful year. Since all but six of the members grad- uated with last year’s senior class, there were many places Idled by new girls. During the Christmas season many concerts were given in various churches around greater Boston and the South Shore. The girls gave special programs at the Norfolk County Hos- pital, the rockery of the Blue Hill Cemetery, and they made a radio broadcast over station WJDA. After Christmas additional concerts were given and also another radio broad- cast. t m SPRING LfGfRD ivvNT m wAWTI l«JNWEi kMKTVM TRACK ’50 Paul V. Toolin, Coach Assistant , William Trainor Spike Pollock Coach Paul Toolin closed another im- pressive season with wins over Quincy, Weymouth, and Thayer, being de- feated by North Quincy only. In the Weymouth Interscholastic meet, Braintree finished second out of the 1 1 schools competing. At the State Meet held at White Stadium. Boston, Braintree finished fifth with Hugh Huleatt breaking Alan Carlsen’s State Meet record, running the mile in t minutes 37.9 seconds. Hugh Huleatt and Fred Bickford set new individual tiack records in the mile and shot- put, respectively. Coach Toolin’s hopes for the “51” season seem bright with nine letter-men returning. BASEBALL ’50 John Crowell, Coach Assistant. Robert Bruce Spike Pollock Braintree High School’s new varsity Coach John Crowell finished the sea- son with an impressive record of 8 wins and 5 losses. The highlights of the season were wins over Brockton and Weymouth, two of the South Shore’s finest. In the Brockton game Captain Bob Lucas struck out 15 oppo- nents. As coach of baseball Mr. Crowell introduced the idea of fall practice which gives the coach a chance to stress fundamentals and to look over candidates more thoroughly than in the crowded spring practice. Pros- pects look bright for the “51” season with 6 regulars returning. 1 ' HP ' 1 Mb r ' f yM GIRLS’ TENNIS ’50 Alice E. Daughraty, Coach Helen (Jlvila Practice was in full swing last spring on the courts of B.H.S. for Miss Daughraty ’s tennis “seven.” This drilling showed its purpose at the end of the season because the girls won four out of their seven matches. The racket flashing girls of 1950 were Muriel Norris, Elizabeth Gage, Adele Newman, Elizabeth Goulding, Nancy Allen, Mildred Morgan, and Gertrude Fraser. Captain Muriel Norris led her teammates to victory on the courts of Wellesley, Norwood, and twice at Scituate. The girls were defeated by their traditional rivals in hockey and softball, North Flastoii and Hingham. We hope that next year’s team can par or even better this record. ERMINIE Directors Mae L. Lindsay Barbara E. Hazel Carole Lindblow “Erminie,” a delightful operetta, was presented on March 23, 1950, in the B.H.S. auditorium, under the direction of Miss Mae Lindsay and Miss Barbara Hazel, with Gail Osthagen as accompanist. This was the annual operetta sponsored by the Class of ’51 with members of the girls’ and boys’ glee clubs taking part. The cast in- cluded: Barbara Taylor, Richard Mar- colini, Gloria Marockino, Donald M acNeill, Marjorie Stevens, Gary Gould, Frederick Miller, Alice Syl- vester, Frederick Inkley, Robert How- arth, Robert Bess, Donald MacGregor, and Robert Blake. A gay comedy of love and romance, sparked by the disguise of two thieves, was enjoyed by all who attended. GIRLS’ SOFTBALL ' 50 Alice E. Daughraty, Coach Helen llvila Under the guidance of Miss Alice Daughraty and their manager, Nancy Whyte, the 1950 girls’ softball team had an above average season. They won six out of their nine games and the scores were top-heavy in favor of the Wampettes. Leading the girls on the field were the capable co-captains Rita Frazier and EITie Finlayson. The team challenged such towns as I ling- ham, North Easton, Scituate, and Cohasset. Letter winners were Kffie Finlayson, Rita Frazier, Louise Good- hue, Barbara Wright, Joanne Dee, Jeanne Kerin, Margaret Alills, Joyce Mortimer, Adele Newman, Shirley Peterson, Virginia Puliafico, Beverly Cassoli, Mary Lou Dennehy, and Rita Magazu. JUNIOR PROM Sponsors Barbara E. Hazel Robert G. Rruce Shirley A. Peterson The Junior Prom of the Class of 1951 was held at the Braintree High gym in May, 1950. The theme of the decorations designed by Shirley Peter- son was a Circus, the focal point of which was a Merry-Go-Round located in the center of the gym. Circus animals in cages lined the walls, and balloons, stars, and all the circus trap- pings associated with the Big Top were everywhere. Music was furnished by Baron Hugo and his Orchestra. ■‘JBj . n pjf Of B 7 REVERIE Writers G. Rossi, B. Smith, R. Ingmanson S. Peterson, H. Pauls, Directors Richard Ingmanson “Reverie,” the 1951 version of the Senior Show, was presented by the Senior Class on February 9, 1951. The play could best be described as a walking dream divided into three acts in which the senior actors and actresses represented some really good talent. The theme of the play was revealed when Spike Pollock, a poor little boy wishing to be rich, finds out that “The best things in life are free.” Other featured acts were Fred Inkley and his “magic voice,” “Georgeous” John Leva in a wrestling bout, Ken Williams as the M. C. on a quiz pro- gram, and Ann Oliver, Lee Brayton. Janet Bushman, and Bill Stevenson acting the roles of dolls and animals in “the toy shop.” GIRLS’ BASKETBALL Alice E. Daughraty, Coach Carole Lindblow The basketball varisty Wampettes, under the fine coaching of Miss Alice Daughraty, had one of their best sea- sons for Braintree High School. Led by their captain Mildred Morgan, these swift and able hoopsters played against strong opposition such as North Easton, Hinghain, Avon, Rock- land, Stetson, and Holbrook. The Wampettes were: Seniors — M. Morgan, captain; J. Dee; V. Puliafico; J. Mor- timer; J. Kenn; A Newman; J. Greene; and the “Lone Junior,” G. Fraser. These varisty hoopsters were kept in trim by the very capable managers, Barbara Benson and Frances Mathe- son. The team with the fighting spirit never gave up until the final bell. BOYS’ BASKETBALL Russell II. Johnston. Jr., Coach Carole Lindblow The basketball Wamps, under the new coaching of Russell Johnston, had a very exciting season. Sparked by Captain “Lefty” O’Connell, the var- sity quintet beat their arch-rival Weymouth in two thrilling games. Several of their other games were lost in overtime or by just a few points. The speedy hoopsters were: Seniors — T. O’Connell, captain ; W. Slauson; R. Dee; C. Mundt; A. Vecchone; P. Carr; R. Trapp; J. DiTullio, manager; Juniors — W. Olson; J. Slauson; 1. Shea; and B. Currie. The highlight of the season was the entry of the amps in the Small and Medium Schools Tourney.

THOSf UMGETMt yflS Bob Lloyd John Flanigan SILLY FRESHMEN September 6. 1947 . . . Flash .... It has been reported that a mysterious noise lias been heard in the vicinity of Braintree High School. I pon investigation it was proven that the Freshmen had struck. hat a turmoil! Everyone was in everybody else’s way. The billboard in front of the Guidance Office was in a sad state of affairs as we, the Freshman class, arrived. We were a wild bunch of kids then, trampling over everyone else trying to find our home rooms. We poked our curious heads into lockers, rooms, and out of windows. Everything was so new and different. By the end of the day, after meeting many strange faces and new teachers, we were stacked with home- work and wondered if we were going to like B. 11. S. Oh, how we envied those high and mighty seniors! They got all the breaks it seemed. Our football team was very good and was to be of great value to Mr. LaTanzi in the years to come. SERIOUS SOPHOMORES September 6, 1948. They say lightning never strikes in the same place twice, but we were the exception. Again we struck, but this time as the more gentle Sophomores. We had learned the ropes and were now members of the upper class. It was our turn to look down on those timid Freshmen. Just think, we were Sophomores! The first thing we did was to elect our class officers. They were Tom Campbell, president; Marshall Litchfield, vice-president; Buddy Mundt, treasurer; and Helen Llvila, secretary. Our class sponsors were Miss Barbara Hazel and Mr. Robert Bruce. Guided by our officers, class sponsors, and the student council, we had a very successful year, with good times for all. We were a very proud class, too, because we would soon have one of the finest schools and gymnasiums in Massachusetts. JOLLY JUNIORS In the fall of 1949 Braintree High again opened her doors to her students. We were Juniors now with high hopes of being another successful Junior class. We had a belated Sophomore Social at the beginning of the year and the class agreed that it was a huge success. Most of us then ordered our class rings and waited anxiously for them to come. The same efficient class officers were elected as in our Sophomore year. We held our Junior Prom May 13, 1950, at the Town Hall, after w hich everyone remarked on the good time. Next the Junior class sponsored the very successful operetta “Erminie.” Our football team w as excellent, w inning six out of its ten games. W e boasted of our tw o cheerleaders, Bita Chandler and Alice Sweezey. June rolled around again as usual and again B. 11. S. closed her doors to us for another summer. SEDATE SENIORS W e returned to B. H. S. again in September, this time as the high and mighty Seniors! W e were in our glory this year because, for the first time in the history of Braintree High School, the football team had an undefeated season (beating Milton for the second con- secutive year 46-12). Also our Cross Country team had another victorious season. W e were truly proud of our successful teams and excellent coaches Arigo LaTanzi and Paul Toolin. The same class officers were elected with the exception of Donald Moulton who was now our president. After paying class dues, obtaining class pictures and pur- chasing our yearbooks, we buckled dow n to produce our senior show , “Reverie.” Every- one agreed that it turned out to be a tremendous success. W e held our Senior Banquet at the Neighborhood Club in Quincy and everyone had a wonderful time. Next, after securing caps and gowns, came graduation pra ctice; then on June 13, 1951. w e graduated from Braintree High. Our last affair as the Class of 1951 w as a gala reception in the gym. So, with much honor and respect for Braintree High we departed from the school we shall always remember. SEniOR fUTURES Angie DeGiso Marilyn Hawkinson Margaret Mills Carol W hittaker Scene — B. H. S. Chem. Lab. — 1951. Carol . and Marilyn 11. are mixing com- pounds x hile Angie D. and Margaret M. watch. Look out! Oooohhhhh!! W ha’ happened? W hat are we doing on a rocket ship? Look! F. Burns and B. Brown are piloting; Betty S. is the stewardess. There’s a billboard on a star; it savs “WELCOME TO PLANISPHERE— 1961.” Entering a strange heavenly world, we hear weird music. It’s coming from an orchestra consisting of S. Pollock, bass fiddle; A. Wilder, clarinet; R. Prario, organ; W. Leggett, harp; and l . Werner, drums. There’s J. Tower’s Air Station; we’ll stop here for gas. While K. Warner and C. Hudson are refueling, “Mo” and “Liteh offer to escort us around the planet. Being women, shopping comes to our minds first. As we enter the Fashion Depart- ment of C. Gallivan’s Enterprises, we see Lorraine .1., Loretta T., Flo K., and Grace M. modelling Annis’ latest creations. Continuing our tour, we approach Irene G.’s Beauty Salon where Jane A., Betty B., and Jean C. are giving beauty treatments to Lee B., M ary M., and Joan S., in preparation for Gox r ernor R. Ingmanson’s annual ball. Next door B. Artesani is giving G. Corcoran, the store detective, a hair cut. In the Toy De- partment L. Streadwick and E. Sopp are demonstrating the art of “Yo-yoing” to Beverly lx. and Adele V whose children haxe their own ideas on the matter. Next we decide to have lunch at C. Mundt’s hotel. D. Brady, manager, directs us to the elexator (operated by Barbara L. and Jeanette F., who wink at Mo and Litcli) which takes us to the dining room. There Cathy C. and Pat L., hostesses, seat us; J. Colbert and Betty S. serve us one of Spike and Joyce’s “specialities.” Leaxing the hotel after a delicious meal, we spot J. Flanigan and R. Barcelo, the bellhops, carrying the luggage of Gloria N. and Garmella C., celebrities of the social world. W e xdsit the office of H. Adams’ DAILY PLANET, edited by J. DiTullio. Phyllis V., one of the star reporters, invites us to join her while she coxers the “Stratosfair.” There the x oice of the barker, (ruff ruff) Fred Miller, stirs excitement and gayetv in us. Ah ha — what have we here — a chorus line. T. Campbell is directing it! Janet P., Jeanne K.. Shirley P., Jean L., Barbara T., and Myrtle P. (the star) must think it’s Thanksgiving. They’re still wearing turkey feathers. R. Pipes is the strong man; F. Thomson (he’s still hot stuff) the fire-eater: Pauline P., Margaret 0., and Dorothy L. are aerial artists; R. Malagodi, the tattoo man, has a chorus line all his own; Betty D. reads palms and foretells futures. The main event is the baby contest. Judges R. Trapp and K. W illiams are disput- ing over the winner. Nunnie’s quads have such curly hair; Ann M.’s little girl is beating up T. Vecchione’s “little Tony”; Mary W . is having trouble with the three corner method. Peter Carr drives us to Starland in his new 1961 Jetmobile from Mercury where Eli S., another reporter, is writing a feature story on the “Milky Way Review.” On location R. Jones, Gloria M., L. Simpson, J. Carlson, and Jeanne LeYangie are rehears- ing under the direction of J. Currerri and Elsie T. On another set we watch Norma M. cut a record; M. Tibbets’ symphonic orchestra accompanies her. Across the lot Allice S., Beverly M., Joanne D., and Ann 0. are swooning while bashful B. McNeil and V. Picardi serenade them. As we pass through the gate, C. Eosue, gatekeeper, suggests we visit the Stratos- vision Studio. There the Starlighters, R. Ross, D. Rusconi, R. Smith, Marianna R., and Gloria R.. give us t heir version of “Make Mine Starlight.” Hearty laughter invites us to enjoy an hour ' s fun with comedians G. Derman, J. Curry, . Morrison, and . Stevenson. A quartet composed of D. Oatt, V Xordahl, C. lliguerra, and .). Vella sing out with a commercial. Clang! Clang! Clang! The noise of a fire engine arouses our curiosity and we fol- low it to the business section. .1. Leva, distracted by the appearance of Jean P. (his new private secretary), dropped a lighted cigar into his office wastebasket. Chief J. Mahar and his assistants . Hutchinson, J. Hemeon, .1. Griffin, and F. Digaetano quickly extinguish the blaze. Secretaries Jane Y, Isabel M.. Jean R., and Janet Barrett rush back to their desks. Shortly the rhythmic sound of tapping type keys of Jean M., Barbara K., Caroline L., Joan S., Barbara Manning, k. Goodhue, and J. Doheny starts again, and everyone goes back to her work. We sit and chat with John for an hour, when we leave to go to L. Starkey’s Soda Shoppe for something to quench our thirst. There J. Dino treats us to the E. Thomas- R. Lloyd ' Bazooka Frappe” and invites us to visit his race track. At the track we are surprised to see Joan R., Arlene M., E. Sutherland, and Pat P. winning scads of money on the horses. (They ' re off.) As the horses round the bend J. Cleggett pulls ahead of F. Bickford, D. Baker, . Anderson, and 1). kelly, leaving G. Robertson to bring up the rear. It ' s a photo finish — Trott wins the race! Later, as we ride through the farming section admiring the beautiful countryside, we are forced to stop for ten minutes to allow B. Slauson’s cows to cross the road. We stop at V. MacDonald ' s farm, only to find that tragedy has struck. J. Furness and R. Graziano have hit Naomi’s favorite cow with the plow; but 11. Huleatt comes to the rescue. His 30 minute, 30 mile run brings young Doc Copp. and the doc saves the cow. Helen M. and Margie D. (assistant managers of the farm) tell us that Barbara M., the cook, wants us to stay for supper. W e’re not very hungry, though, so w e go back to tow n. We are now in a new building, constructed by the Brackett-Burgess Construction Company. It houses a bank on the first floor where J. W eafer and B. Belanger are em- ployed as tellers; Vivian N., Elaine Taber, and Grace F., as cashiers; and R. Powell as president of the bank. On the second floor is T. Olson ' s dentist office; B. Dee is struggling in the grasp of the dentist, while J. Green tries to comfort him. On the next floor we find Doctor H. Paul ' s office w here L. O’Connell is having a broken wrist reset (Millie is outside, pacing the floor). Beverly L., and Ann S. are sitting in the waiting room talk- ing with nurses J. Frawley and Marguerite . On the same floor is the unemployment office — June IL and J. Manganello are picking up their unemployment checks (what a racket) from W. Bradford. Next floor up we pass by M. Seavey’s photo studio where Claire k. assists him in taking pin-up shots of Helen l . to advertise R. Hollinshead’s newest plastic bathing suits. In the offices of D. Mac Neill’s law firm, J. Bushman and Nancy Whyte are still arguing over the policy of having a female president. On the top floor at the Stratosphone Company, M. Canelli, Rita C., Nancy W ., Josie C.. Pat G., and Marilyn M. (supervisor) are phone operators. Now we’ll stop at the Universal University. President, J. Marinella greets us and assigns F. Inkley to show us around. Phyllis H. is teaching art courses; A. Hayes, music; G. Rossi. Latin; Carol L., English: D. Fogg, international culture; J. Merrill, domestic arts; W. Osborn, geometry; W. Roberts, sociology; W. Starkie, a course in engineering; M. Levangie, forestry; and J. W illiams, physiology. Detecting chemical odors, we are drawn to the Chem. Lab. F. Inkley leaves us at the door. As we enter, we see two people wearing masks. Suddenly, someone locks the door, and the people take off the masks. Oh no! It’s A. Tombari, the mad scientist, and his assistant, Phyllis Y. Say, that’s not gas we smell, is it? Everything’s turning black. Goodbye, Planisphere. Goodbye, everyone.
