What could be more natural than, that the progeny appeal to their parents for assistance and guidance. Always receptive to our pleas for aid, they bestow unsparingly of their time, experience, and patience in order to elucidate our problems and to alleviate our troubles. More solicitous of our welfare than we are ourselves, they constantly endeavor to spur us on to greatness. That they share our achievements is eloquently expressed by the emotion mirrored in the proud parent's eyes when the child utters its Hrst word or takes its Hrst step. Teachers, counselors, assuagers, and confidants-parents preeminently mould our philosophies, characters, temperaments, likes and dislikes. The achievements of man stand as monuments in commemoration of their efforts. The destiny of the world was placed in their hands and they have coped with it. Fully cognizant of the fact that we cannot compensate them, we the Class of 1947, as a token of our esteem and appreciation, dedicate this, Our Yearbook. to our parents. Messages to the Seniors Your graduating from high school means that you have completed one step in the acquisition of knowl edge. Coming as it does at an early age in your life. it is but the beginning of a gradual growth which in the alert and progressive individual should never stop. Unfortunately for many. however. mental development seems to be synonymous with going to school. Your high school preparation should serve as the foundation upon which your mind should grow and expand. drawing from the countless opportunities for further learning to be obtained from meeting people. working with people. and serving people. The learned man is cultured. he is refined. he is helpful. he is responsible, he is trustworthy. and he is cognizant of his duties and obligations toward his fellowman. The foundation for such learning has been built for you during your four years in high school, the type of structure you will build depends on you. on your ambition and your willingness to con- tinue to learn. Henceforth the world in which you live is your school: your daily experiences. your teachers: your success or failure. your diploma. BERNARD F. NORTON Superintendent of Schools To you. members of the class of 1947. I wish success and happiness in the years to come. but above all. that you will carry forth in your everyday life the valuable lessons gained in school. Your diploma is a special reward for work completed. It also indicates that you have a certain amount of intelligence. It will profit you to put this intelligence into action for the common good. to seek the truth. to have ideals and to discern moral values. A school is proud of its graduates who attain renown. but its true success is measured chiefly by the unheralded actions of good and intelligent citizens, whose work and influence. be it ever so small. raise the standards of life in their community, and in some way contribute to the happiness of mankind. Especially in those measures. depend the success of your secondary school education. GABRIELLE M. ROY Principal ahh-gg.. vwwtq if V gfaea, fl A Tribute We cannot fully express our gratitude to the teachers of Cumberland High School who have so patiently guided us in an unwearying eHort to attain our every accomplish- ment. We can sincerely thank them intensely for the inspira- tion they have imparted to us. 5 Faculty CHRISTINA R. BURNS, Rhode Island College of Education, B. Ed. FRANCIS J.

B. 7 History of the Class of 1947 lt was 8:25 Wednesday morning in Sep- tember of '43, The freshman class was grad- ually coming to order, We were all assembled in the auditorium waiting for Mi's Roy to give us instructions on how to get to our as- signed classes in the shortest possible time. Walking slowly along the corridors, we would stop to stare through the glass panes of the classroom doors. wondering if we would ever have that feeling of importance that seemed to fill the upper classmen. By the second month of school we had almost completely lost our shy mannerisms and had begun to get acquainted with some of the other students. The afternoon socials helped us a great deal along this line and also taught us the fundamentals of Arthur lVlurray's routine. Before we had fully realized it, we became sophomores. That year we came into the spotlight by putting on a A'Talent Assembly --the most talked about event of '44, The theme of our show was a radio program. With the guidance of the faculty. our as- sembly was a great success. About this time. the basketball team showed many of our class members on the J. V. quintet and one or two of the more skillful boys on the Var- sity doing their best to help C. l-l. Sjcom- pete for the Class C. Championship pennant. Our junior term started off with lots of enthusiasm, as we would soon select one of our most treasured potsessions-our class rings. We could not, however, neglect our studies even though we were in a carefree frame of mind. Methodically we went about the task of acquiring more knowledge-pri vately we decided Shakespeare really had something in his Merchant of Venice plot. but why did he make us decipher it to come to that conclusion? By this time plans were being made for the forthcoming Junior Prom. our iirst formal which was a very special occasion for moit of us. Everyone was doing his utmost to make- this affair gay and as colorful as a Dutch setting should be. Without further ado we passed on into our senior year. Words soon fiew into action with plans for our Senior Dance. and all agreed that scenes of a French Cafe would be ideal for this occasion, Besides being very festive our dance was also profitable, and the class funds were boosted up a notch. Next on the agenda came class pictures-these proved to the world at large that we have quite a number of Hedy Lamarrs and Van Johnsons among our classmates, as you can see when you turn each page in Our Year Book. Among the most precious memories of our high school career will be the Senior Play, Reception, and Class Day, when we play host to the future grads of Cumberland. On Honors Day, we honor the thirteen stu- dents who have achieved the highest merits of the class, Graduation is the last time we may ever see many of our classmates who struggled along with us during these four never-to-be-forgotten years. We regret that our high school education must come to a close as all good things must. It is with sincere appreciation and best wishes to our teachers for their many hours of patience and understanding that we leave Cumberland High School.

LACOSTE Classes ....... Coslume Designing-The colorful array of dresses. blouses, and skirts flashing in the corridors, represent the efforts of the sewing classes. Pride in work well done explains why economical seniors have such fine wardrobes. Office Practice--Among the assorted duties of the typing class is the singular one of producing copies on the Rexeo-graph and Mimeograph machines. Tests. cheers. songs. and programs for school activities are con- stantly in demand thus necessitating the patient and ua- tiring cooperation of our efficient commercial depart- ment. Home Making-The preparation, as well as the pro- vision of the bacon, is necessary to sustenance. Girls who prefer to train for domesticity, rather than careers in business or college. find numerous facilities in Home Economics to develop their skills in all the phases of home making. Practical Transcription--lVlodern devices. which simplify the stenographers work in business offices, are becoming increasingly popular. A dictaphone. an ap- paratus for quick and eflicient transcription. is a recent addition to the typing classes' collection of mechanical aids, paying dividends as a time saver. Voice Culture4Oratorical eloquence and leadership go hand in hand. Mr. Shunney's combined Elccution and Dramatics course. by offering many and varied aspects of speech, has provided the Senior class with talented speech-makers and actors, thus benefiting the students both financially and educationally. Electrical Science-In a world where electricity com- prehends innumerable uses, the need for capable workers is reflected: thus. the course in electricity has attracted a large number of our students. Here are our future electricians proving that they have mastered its practical application. General Science-Nothing is more thought-provoking than self-introduction to the world of science by means of experimcntae tion. Delving into the intrica- cies of Nature is certain to yield strange phenomena. Assimila- tion of knowledge acquired throughout the year culminates in a prize exhibit at the Annual Providence Journal Science Fair.

Organized in March, 1946 under the faculty supervision of Mr, Thomas Skahan and county leadership of Mr, Walter D, Waterman, the club has made excellent records in the Held of dairying, gardening, landscaping, poultry-raising, and farm safety. With the return of classes in the fall of l946. the club resumed its activities of beautifying the school. Shrubs were solicited to reduce the expense of this worthy project. The girls 4-H Club has been even more recently organized under the guidance of the Misses Emily Picerne, faculty member, and Germaine Seelye, county agent. Their proj- ects are centered around better methods of home-making.

Through the earnest efforts of the officers of the Athletic Association, and the custom' ary zeal of the student body and faculty. the 1946-47 Athletic Association enjoyed a most successful season, both in game participation and iinancial returns. Pep rallies staged regularly during the basketball season fostered the good spirit and Fine sportmanship for which our school has long been reputed. Capacity attendance so filled our audi- torium at the commencement of the season that a new ticket system had to be in augu- rated to insure seats for students. At the close of the basketball season, ate tention turned to baseball. spring training, and the less enjoyable task of repairing the diamond. Baseball 1-'rom row, Ielz zo right: Clyde Haworth.

All we can do is merely predict what the team may accomplish this year. This season. the squad should have some outstanding ball players. lt will have such past performers as Mac Wriglat who should hold down the backstop position, 'iGaga Andrews and Frenchy Filucci, two very capable in-fielders. ln the out-fields will be Tom Toner. who will also be ready to re- lieve behind the plate. Freshman Mike Keenan should also show some hustle on the mound. Other seniors who are trying out for positions are as follows: Joe Sanna, Roy McKenzie, Bernie Masterson, Ed Nawrocki, Manny l.oureiro. Eddie Babiec. and Paul Chabot. Two capable senior managers will be Jim McCann and Joe lVlcVey who will be assisted by 'iRollo Whitney and 'iBunny Martelle.

Cumberland High School eng joys a sound musical organization. Mr. Francis Carney has contributed much in time and effort to the success of the musical program. the ultimate aim of which is the cultivation of knowledge, appreciation. and enjoyment of good music, both popular and classical. The establishment of a course ol study in music from grades l through lZ has laid the foundation for increasingly betf ter orchestras. The enthusiasm which greeted the first orchestra five years ago waxes more spontaneous as time elapses. Now a school assembly would be incomplete without the appearance of the orchestra.

To friends we've known and comrades all, To teachers staunch and true, Oh, Cumberland! Our Cumberland! We bid thee sad adieu. As we've anticipated This graduation night, ln our efforts and accomplishments, You've been our ideal-our shining light.
