East High School - Redjacket Yearbook (Pawtucket, RI)

Text from Pages 1 - 136 of the 1947 volume:

'paiecvaict WE. the staff of the REDJACKET. stimulated by the “Textile Panorama at the R. I. School of Design, and by the fact that Pawtucket is the birthplace of American cotton industry, have chosen textiles as our theme. Textiles differ tremendously, but whether they be coarse or fine, brilliant or drab, intricate or simple, the finished product depends upon the weaver who uses his materials most effectively. Similarly, the members of ’47 have tried to make the most of their opportunities at East, so that this phase of their life pattern, recorded by the RED-•JACKET. will always be one of which they may be proud. Varying degrees of success have crowned these efforts. Some designs in the pattern are more valuable than others: some are brilliant: others, mediocre: still others are unsatisfactory. In any case, the strands are woven into the REDJACKET. which represents a fragment of the complete pattern of our lives. TEXTILES IN AMERICA A Teacher TO have devoted four decades to an activity of the mind and spirit is in itself an experience the richness of which can be measured only by those who have shared in it. This was the experience of Miss Nellie V. Donovan, a teacher distinguished by a brilliant record of accomplishment and honored by the esteem of thousands. For she had taught in Pawtucket high schools for virtually the four decades—actually for 39 years, and in that period had made a profound impression on hundreds of minds. Miss Donovan began her teaching career well prepared by a liberal education at the Women's College in Brown University, now Pembroke College. She brought to her work not only a desire to assist her students but to broaden her own fine mind. She was one of those wise persons who understand the true value of formal education and appraise it as a preparation for the experience of living. One of the greatest of autobiographies written in recent decades is The Education of Henry Adams.'' It records the pursuit of culture through a long lifetime and leaves the reader with a deep appreciation of the values to be gained from daily experience. Miss Donovan was one who. we believe, enriched her education through contact with her students in her daily work. She taught because she was devoted to the profession, but in particular she loved to teach a student who was interested in the task at hand. She responded to eagerness to learn by her own eagerness to teach. So it was that through the years she made the English department at Pawtucket High School—later Senior High and now East High —an institution in itself. Any student who really desired to acquire the habit of good English had the opportunity there. Such a student was received as a gift and a challenge by this able woman, who not only knew her subject but also knew young people, the boys and girls of a high school. When the 1934 year book of the school was in preparation, in charge of a student committee, its dedication read: To Miss Nellie V. Donovan, whose scholarship we admire, whose humor we enjoy, whose friendship we value, the class of 1934 respectfully dedicates this year book. It was a mature tribute from young minds who a dozen years ago were paying a deserved honor to one who had won the respect of other students more than a quarter of a century earlier, who has had the respect, esteem and affection of students in the decade that has followed the publication of that 1934 year book. Courtesy of The Pawtucket Times 'DecUcatcxM, To the Memory of Miss Nellie V. Donovan, Whose Constant Inspiration, Unfailing Kindness, and Infinite Wisdom Enriched Our Lives and Those of Our Predecessors, We, the Class of 1947, Dedicate Our Classbook. Samuel Slater Samuel Slater farther of Textiles in Am erica ii T ALL of The Water”, or Pawtucket, as the Indians called it. was the birthplace of an industry that has brought prosperity to our city and state, and leadership in world trade to our nation. The narrative of this birth and growth in a rude building at the site of the Slater Mill is no ordinary one but. rather, a story of a brilliant mind, patience, and an unconquerable determination pitted against the rigid principles of a great empire. Let us turn back the faded leaves of history in order to understand the complete chronicle. “'King Cotton”, often a pawn in the rise and decline of nations, was first mentioned in the annals of India of 5400 years ago. Slowly its use spread to Asia Minor, Rome, then Christian Europe; during the Renaissance it became a basic commodity. After man had sought for centuries to perfect a pratical machine to replace the crude, slow method of home spinning. James Hargreaves and Richard Arkwright, about 1767, succeeded in inventing the first machine and establishing the first water power spinning mill, a fact which revolutionized the manufacture of cotton. Prior to this achievement the English Colonies in America had boasted of the fact that all their spinning and weaving were done within their boundaries: however, after the termination of our Revolution in 1781. England flooded our market with inexpensive, machine-made goods, at the same time maintaining vigilance against importation of machines, models, or skilled workmen, who knew of Hargreaves's discoveries. Quickly our young cotton industry threatened to become extinct. However, another Englishman. Samuel Slater, born in 1768, was soon to save the industry by a dream. Although an excellent student, due to the death of his father he was forced to go to work at the age of fourteen. Apprenticed to Arkwright. Slater worked diligently and observed keenly, always with one idea—that of building his own machine after emigration to the United States. Forbidden to copy machines or make models, he committed the designs to memory, and sailed from London in 1789. After his arrival he signed a contract with Moses Brown of Providence on April 15. 1790, to reproduce cotton machinery used by Arkwright in England. Deriving his water power from the Pawtucket Falls, in a humble shack he and other skilled workers labored behind closed doors. Often physically and mentally weary. Slater several limes was on the verge of surrendering his project, but his persistent will urged him onward. When the apparatus at last seemed properly assembled, he suffered his worst blow—the machine would not operate smoothly. Exhausted, he fell upon his bed and dreamed. In the sub-conscious mind of the machinist, the cogs, gears, and wheels became a whirling mass, but he discovered that one essential part had been left out. With this part in place, the next day Slater’s dream was realized. The present building, erected in 1795, is today a fitting memorial to the man to whom we of Pawtucket owe so much. We all realize the importance of the cotton industry in our history, in our economic progress, in our present world level of commerce: let us not forget that it all began a few steps from our school. My dear Graduates of 1947; It is with much interest that I learn that the Classhook this year is to have for its central theme the fact that Pawtucket is proud of its history as a city noted for its textile industries. I am sure that this Classbook will do full Justice to Pawtuckot and its textiles. The Class of 1947 will thus show once more its ability to carry a project to a successful conclusion and the Classbook will be one of your treasured possessions through all the years of your life. I am glad to have this opportunity to express to this graduating class my appreciation of their efforts and achievements. You have been cheerful, courteous, respectful, and likeable at all times. The record you have made here will live in the annals of the school. I see you leave with regret. You have earned my respect and friendship. Be assured that you have my very best wishes for your success and happiness, if at any time in the coming years I can be of service to you in any way do not hesitate to call upon me. I bid you Godspeed and Good Luck. Very truly yours. EAST SENIOR 1UGJ1 SCHOOI ENGLISH AND HISTORY Seated, left to right-. M. Moriarty. H Co tello. C. McC.'aughcy. G Man an. M McMahon. I Carlin. E.

Some dlsoover the lesson early, and therefore enjoy life to the full extent; others never learn, and spend their lives In unhappiness and frustration. Co-operation is the binding agent in all endeavor. Life is made up of co-operative acts. The baker depends upon the miller for his flour, and the miller In turn relies upon the fanner for the raw product. The same Is true In all of life. The totally self-reliant person does not exist. For each of us, life is social. Definite laws of association and corporate living must be followed. Democracy Is a philosophy of oo-operatlon. We have seen this demonstrated day by day as we have worked together toward our scholastic goal. Ours has been a common purpose and we have achieved success. We must now go out and put the principles which we have learned Into action. Youth has vigor, health, education. If we grow careless and Indifferent, the years which we have spent In education and growth will mean absolutely nothing. We must not live a life of apology, timidity, or misgiving. Many of us probably are facing the greatest challenge of our lives. What are we to do with the lessons we have learned at East Senior High School? Do we possess the power and vision to meet the demands of these testing times? s v vv MARJORIE AGATY Margie Future Intentions: Office Work Activities: Library Club 1 ; Hi Light 1 JAMES C.

Citizenship Award, which is given on the basis of dependability, service, leadership, patriotism, and scholarship. The ideal girl is selected by the girls of the senior class and the faculty, while the boy is chosen by a local D. A. R. representative from a list of names submitted by the principal. The class of 1947 is extremely proud of this year's winners, the most outstanding citizens at East, Clinton Pearson and Helen Wszol.

Joseph 'Parkinson: vice-president, Brendan Gilbane; secretary. Barbara Reddington: and treasurer. Howard Lonsdale. They welcomed as their new adviser. Mr. John Masterson. who had just returned after five years in the Army Air Corps. The first important activity was the annual mid-year hop. which was held in the gym after the last examination on January 24. Music was provided by Roger Pietzak and his orchestra, composed of high school students. Because everyone had such a good time at the first dance, the Student Council planned another, which took place on February 14. and was a combined Valentine Day dance and rally for the East-West basketball game to be played the following night. Music was furnished by Warner, and decorations of red and white were provided by Madge Gallagher and her committee. At the end of February, the students were pleasantly surprised at the gay assembly conducted by the Student Council. Roger and his Gremlins were the main feature on the program. In addition to the orchestral num bers there were solos, vocal and instrumental, rendered by Marion Kopp, Wanda Marren, Joe Lapham. and Louis Hallal. The assembly was heartily enjoyed by all the students. The main project of the Council for this year was the raising of money to buy a new score board for the gym. The members sold ice cream bars at every home basketball game in order to secure funds. Improvement of conditions in the cafeteria was given serious consideration at all of the meetings. Many methods of procedure were suggested and discussed. However, the ultimate fulfillment of this enterprise depended upon the co-operation of all the students. To acquaint them with the new endeavor, the Council placed posters, illustrating the aims, on the corridor bulletin boards throughout the school. These placards pleasantly reminded the student body that their aid was needed. In addition to the aforementioned activities, the group held a locker clean up day and a color day. It was a busy year, and at both work and play the members were most enthusiastic. They may well be proud of their enviable record. 62 � •- Junior Prom and Senior Reception Art Committees AT the Junior Prom held in the gym. coy and cunning cupids peeking from amid clusters of various sized hearts gazed down on a bevy of laughing dancers. Immediately arresting the attention as one entered was the Junior Class's valentine, a huge red heart illuminated by brilliant spotlights and inscribed with a glittering '47. The walls of the gym were cleverly adorned with pert red and white hearts bearing all the ardent messages associated with Cupid’s holiday. Little angels with star dust in their eyes were perched on top of the backboards just above a sentimental “I Love You.” The dainty and inviting refreshment table with its red punch in a sparkling crystal bowl tempted the eye as well as the appetite. Completing the perfect setting was the orchestra's stand enveloped in hearts and flowers. We extend our heartiest congratulations to Miss Dorothy Johnson of the Art Department. who touched the gym with the magic wand of her talent and transformed it into an elaborate ballroom. The Art Committee, the members of the Applied Design classes, and the members of the Freehand Drawing classes assisted Miss Johnson. Their skill and imagination made our Junior Prom a shining memory. The circus motif of the Senior Reception would have excited the approval of the master showman himself. P. T. Barnum. In this extravagant setting, so alive and vibrant with color, one almost expected to hear the shouts of a barker, smell the sticky sweetness of pink cotton candy, and hear the piping of a carousel. Above the dancers' heads multicolored balloons played at the ends of their strings and streamers flirted with the gentle breezes. The motley colors of clowns bedecked the entire gym. disguising it for this early summer Mardi Gras. Circus performers and caricatured animals paraded with true showmanship along the walls, engaging the attention of all. Congratulations to Miss Eleanor Morse of the Art Department who served as our Ring Master”, directing the decorating with her lively imagination, talent, and humor. The Art Committee deserves the appreciation of the entire Senior Class for the successful presentation of the carnival of color. Once again the Applied Design and Freehand Drawing classes rose to meet the occasion with their assistance. The Senior Reception, our Greatest Show on Earth”, was the glittering finale of the Greatest Class on Earth , the Class of '47. JUNIOR PROM AND SENIOR RECEPTION ART COMMITTEES Left to right: [ Risho.

Although comparatively small in size, the unit made up for what it lacked in numbers with an over-abundance of quality. As usual. East compared more than favorably with other high schools when a large number of the members was selected to the two All-State Band Concerts held at Hope High School. Highlighting the season was the trip to Westerly in May where the band won outstanding honors. When reminiscing about high school days the members will always think kindly of the band and Mr. Gray. 0RCUES T RA LED by the baton of its able director. Mr. Robert Gray, the orchestra, with about twenty members, assumed an important role in the curriculum of East. During its very few appearances the group thrilled the audiences with the classical music of such artists as Greig, Handel, and Weber. Some members were honored by being selected to play in the All-State Concert in May. Although they worked hard throughout the year, the members, who sorrowfully realized the approach of June, felt that the musical education and enjoyment received were well worth their toil. 64 fr- THE T R E B L E CLEF C L U B THE Treble Clef Club is composed of girls especially interested in singing. some of whom have had the advantages of professional training. The girls, about twenty-five in number, held their practice sessions after those of the Glee Club every Wednesday afternoon. The club, which was under the direction of Miss Miriam Hosmer. presented the fruits of its efforts at the Christmas assembly and at the exercises held the first week in May in honor of Music Week. Another activity of the club was participation in the Rhode Island Music Festival. GIRL'S GLEE C L U B THE Girls’ Glee Club, under the direction of Miss Miriam Hosmer. sounded like a truly professional one. Marion Kopp, Betty Mather, and Beryl Lovering were the soloists when the group sang at the annual Christmas assembly. In May the Music Festival was held at Hope High School. Providence, where several of the girls with exceptionally fine voices represented East. In June the senior members made their final appearance at the graduation exercises. At the first regular weekly meeting the following were elected as officers: Elizabeth Dalton, president: Nida Bowab. vice-president: Nan Laird, secretary: Barbara Kelly, treasurer: and Morna Moran and Irene Hull, librarians.

A Duffy The Library Club IN its sixth year of existence the Library Club, under the excellent supervision of Miss Irene D. Carlin, school librarian, has successfully lived up to its pledge of giving service. Charging out and taking in books, keeping them and the periodicals in their proper places, helping students locate information on different topics, putting up notices, and arranging displays on the bulletin boards are only a few of the duties of the members of the club. By performing these services the group obtains a great deal of knowledge and at the same time has a lot of fun. Another advantage of being a member lies in the opportunity of being the first to read new books. The experience that the members have gained in working in the library will be of value in whatever career they choose to follow after graduation from high school. Once a year during Book Week the Library Club puts on an assembly. The members review new books, present their opinions, and offer recommendations of the books that they read. This year the Book Week assembly was carried on a little differently from those of previous years. As each member gave his report, a descriptive picture of the book was flashed on the movie screen. Concluding the assembly were two very entertaining movies, How to Use the Library and “How Books are Made”. On display during that week in the library were various types of interesting books that would suit different personalities. Along with the library work the members of the club enjoyed many social activities. Among these were a picnic in Lincoln Woods, a Christmas party, and a few other gatherings. At the Senior Play the group sold candy, the proceeds of which were used to improve library facilities and to purchase library pins for the active members. The Library Club has been a decided link between students and faculty and between student and school. Because of these willing students who performed so many of the tou-tine tasks. Miss Carlin was able to devote more time to planning and organization. The club tried to ease the burden of their leader by relinquishing their spare time to give service to others. The officers for 1946-1947 were as follows: president, Barbara Houle: vice-president. Florence Demers: secretary. Harold Morris: and treasurer. Rosemary McGovern. Arlene Connors was the Student Council representative and Lillian Grocott was her assistant. 66 }§►•- The Girls’ Leader Corps THE Girls' Leader Corps is a group of fifteen outstanding members of each class, chosen for their superior gymnastic ability, intelligence, and quality of leadership. At the beginning of the school year the following girls were elected as presiding officers: Shirley Greenhalgh. president: Evelyn Jones, vice-president; Marcelle Monast, secretary: and Beryl Lovering, treasurer. The aim of the organization is to prepare the girls for future responsibilities and to give them experience along lines that will help them in later life. A group of sophomores is taken into the club annually to replace the seniors who graduated the preceding year. The candidates were first required to make a one-minute speech before the corps as to why they wished to become members. After much careful consideration the fifteen girls were chosen and initiated at a most impressive candlelight ceremony. In order that the new leaders might become better acquainted with the rest of the girls in the corps, an informal gathering followed, where refreshments were served and games played. At the meetings held twice a month the girls discussed the current business of the group: then Miss Furbish gave instructions concerning the teaching of swimming and gym classes. Some of the meetings were followed by short get-togethers at which the members played such games as basketball, volleyball, and softball. Periodically, tests were given on the various sports to qualify the leaders as referees, scorers, and timers. In the gym and swimming classes the girls had many opportunities in which to make use of their leadership ability. In the former they took the roll call, assisted the teacher in her many duties, and sometimes, in the absence of a teacher, they taught the class. The same was true of the swimming classes. This experience was valuable as a good foundation for those who intended to make their career in the field of physical education. The Leader Corps, however, was not entirely devoted to gymnastic work: it also planned dances and parties. Among this year's activities were the annual Thanksgiving Formal, splash parties, picnics, and bowling parties. This account of the Girls’ Leader Corps would not be complete if credit were not given to the director. Miss Marjorie Furbish, under whom the club was able to maintain its high standards of service and loyalty. Her wise advice and guidance were of inestimable value to the girls, who deeply appreciated her efforts in their behalf. LEADER CORPS First rou'. left to right: B Gorman. P. Greenhalgh. A. Hog-garth.

More than two hundred and fifty class members and their guests danced to the sentimental strains of Ed Drew s orchestra. The highlight of the evening was the coronation of the Queen of Hearts and the presentation of her court of ten Junior misses. Miss Marion Hood, faculty adviser, contributed greatly to the success of the gala event. The paper heart and the pressed flowers we keep as souvenirs may fade, but the memory of our Junior Prom will always be bright. THE H I - LIGHT UNDER Miss Bryant’s capable direction the Hi-Light completed another successful season. All students looked forward to the release of the Hi-Light, as they depended upon it for a complete and accurate coverage of all school activities, both important and inconsequential. The work rested upon the shoulders of the many reporters and the editors who mapped out the paper. But most important of all was our faculty adviser. Miss Bryant, who unerringly guided her staff through the many difficulties which confronted them. 68 P HESS C L IT B THE Press Club, directed by Miss Dorothy Bryant, fulfills a double office —that of supporting the Hi-Light and that of providing the gold and silver pins awarded to the members of the Hi-Light staff who have earned one hundred points or more. T he funds were obtained this year through the sale of candy donated by club members at the play. What a Life. The duties and social functions were carried on under the direction of the following officers: Helen Wszol. president. Abe Nathanson. vice-president; Phyllis Logan, secretary: and Ronald Moore, treasurer. To them and our adviser we express our gratitude. SENIOR RECE PTI0 N IN the bright warm month of June the graduating class under the supervision of Miss Mildred Stanton held its last social event, the Senior Reception. After three years of gay parties and fun. the seniors enjoyed the termination of their happy high school days. Amid colorful decorations of circus parades, balloons, and streamers, the graceful dancers swayed rhythmically to the heavenly tunes. As in a dream world, lacy skirts swished round and round midst the sweet scent of fresh flowers. What a beautiful and glorious ending served as the farewell to the graduates of ’47!

Cette annee des eleves canadiens nous man-quaient dans le cercle, mais les programmes etaient aussi amusants et aussi comprehensi-bles qu'a l'ordinaire. On a entendu bien des disques franqais, on a offert de petites pieces de theatre et a fait des jeux qui nous ont aides a cultiver un bon accent et a nous donner une meilleure connaissance de la France, de son histoire, de son peuple, et de ses coutumes. A Noel le Saint Nicholas nous a fait visite pour nous distribuer beaucoup de cadeaux. Mai heureusement il est arrive pendant nos vacan-ccs et il lui a fallu dormir toute une semaine dans un hotel local terrible avant de nous voir. En fevrier nous avons joue des rafraichisse-ments delicieux. du chocolate et de petits gateaux. Nous nous sommes procure de l'argent par la vente de bonbons a une soiree dramatique. et nous en avons donne pour envoyer un paquet d'ailment a une famille pauvre en France.

The officers of the French Club were as follows: George Nazarian. president; Gertrude Taylor, vice-president: Patricia Quinn, treasurer: and Edgar E. Johnson, secretary. Due to their careful work, to the fine co-operation and to the adroit direction of Miss Katherine MacKenzie, the French Club once again terminated a successful year. This season we lacked Canadian students in the organization but our programs were as amusing and as comprehensible as usual. We heard many French records, presented little skits, and played games which tended to cultivate a good accent and give us a better knowledge of the history, people, and customs of France. At Christmas Santa Claus paid us a visit in order to distribute many gifts. The disgusted old fellow gave a long oration about his arrival during a school vacation and the fact that he had had to sleep a whole week in a horrible hotel before seeing the club members. In February we enjoyed a party, at which we had delicious hot chocolate and cupcakes. We raised money by the sale of candy at a school play, and donated some of it for a food package which we have sent to a poor family in France. The French Club of '47 wishes the best of luck to all future members. 70 }■ - Deutscher Verein DER DEUTSCHE VEREIN ist jetzt elf Jahre alt.

JUNIOR ROTARIANS ACCORDING to custom a group of senior boys has enjoyed the cordial, instructive company of the members of the Rotary Club of Pawtucket. This year, as in the past, the constituents of this club have invited young men from East High to their weekly luncheon meetings. During these really democratic gatherings, the Junior Rotarian gathers invaluable social information from the organization’s well-planned programs. He makes the acquaintance of many of Pawtucket's foremost business men through the friendly atmosphere of the dining table. Terminating his stay, the Junior Rotarian takes part in the Changing of The Guard.” when he introduces his successor and delivers a parting speech of gratitude to the members of this most deserving association. CAP AND GOWN COMMITTEE THE duties of the Cap and Gown Committee remain the same from year to year. To this small group is entrusted the task of garbing the entire senior class for graduation. The members decide the color (traditional black is again the choice), take measurements, supervise the distribution of the garments, and their collection after the exercises. The members were guided this year by Mr. John Masterson. faculty adviser. who gave generously of his time to the pursuance of this important duty. 72)5- HOYS’ GLEE CLUB ONCE again the Boys' Glee Club is to be congratulated upon a successful year. At the Christmas assembly the boys gave a commendable performance. The quality of tone more than made up for the lack of members. Indeed, this very scarcity in talent only served to spur the group on to greater effort. Last May some of the boys were in attendance both at the State Music Festival and the New England Music Festival. Their participation brought credit to East. It must be remembered, however, that the honor and praise which the singers have received are due to the splendid leadership of Mr. Richard Garland, the director. T H E A T II L E T I C COUNCI L THE athletic council earnestly endeavors to promote and foster athletics. It makes all rules governing athletic awards: no awards are made until they have been ratified by the council. In addition, the members formulate the principles concerning election of captains and the conduct of boys on athletic teams. The student members are always free to express the opinion of the student body. The following were officers: George Kayata. president: Frank Babiec, vice-president: and Evelyn Jones, secretary (honorary position). Mr. Winters.

Thresher Hi-Y THE National Hi-Y Fellowship was established in 1932. By this plan, a Hi-Y club applies for affiliation through its nearest state or city Hi-Y office. Upon approval, its application is sent to the National Hi-Y office, following which a certificate of affiliation and individual membership cards are issued. Requirements for affiliation include adherence to the purpose of Hi-Y. an adult adviser, and participation in the financial support of the Fellowship. Sponsored jointly by the Young Men’s Christian Association and the school, the Hi-Y has created, maintained, and extended throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. L.ed by president Bill McCreery. the East Hi-Y completed a successful season. Vice-president Bert Fine and secretary Ralph Etherington represented the club at the New England Boys' Hi-Y Conference held in Lowell last December. Its financial affairs were handled efficiently by the treasurer. Clint Pearson. The club participated in several inter-club meetings with the West Hi-Y. Central Falls Hi-Y. and the girls’ Tri-Y. At these meetings movies were shown and dis- cussions held, after which dancing and refreshments were enjoyed by the members. For the first time in the history of the Hi-Y. sophomores were accepted for membership. Together with several juniors and seniors, five sophomores were inducted into the Fellowship at the beginning of the year. The Hi-Y was fortunate this year in having Selby Greenhalgh as its adviser, for without his able assistance the season would not have been as successful. The club was also proud of junior Ted Parker, who distinguished himself by being elected vice-president of the Hi-Y Council of Rhode Island. Instead of the annual intra-club New Year's Eve Dance, an inter-club Holiday Dance was held at the Y” on the night of December 28. Other activities held by the group were the annual hay ride and. something new, a mystery ride. Because of the lack of interest in the other cities, a basketball league was not organized this year, but the boys enjoyed many exciting games in the gym on sports night. Throughout the year the aims of a Hi-Y member are to be accurate in speech, courteous in manner, diligent in study, and faithful in service, and to make life more worthwhile for himself and members of his community. 74 )i— Student Club THE Student Club, a senior girls' organization of the Y. W. C. A., proved to be one of the most active groups of the school year. With the help of Mrs. Ernest F. Scott, the very popular and esteemed leader of teen-age groups, the girls were able to effect a great many enterprises. After a close election, the following were chosen as officers: Helen Wszol, president; Beatrice Lamarre, vice-president: Nan Laird, secretary; Beverly Gorman, associate secretary: Dorothy Murray, treasurer: and Norma Nelson, associate treasurer. The girls immediately began planning for the principal events which were to follow. The first social feature was a hay ride to Crazy Corners on a cold October night. Then came the joint monthly meetings with the Hi-Y of the Y. M. C. A., when different types of movies were shown so that the boys and girls could discuss and work out solutions to their own youthful problems. These gatherings always ended with dancing and refreshments which were enjoyed very much by all. The Christmas formal, conducted for all the teen-age clubs of the Y. W. C. A., was a gay party with colorful decorations of sleighs, bells, mistletoe, and even old Santa himself. The girls took part in several plays for the World Fellowship Drive, Christmas program, and other association meetings. They can well boast of their contributions to the Community Chest. World Fellowship Drive. World Reconstruction Fund, and the Red Cross. The mother-daughter tea, at which the Student Club members acted as gracious hostesses, was held in February. The sophomores presented a fashion show and the juniors and seniors gave a short play and specialty numbers at the same affair. At that function our mothers had the opportunity to become acquainted with the capable leaders of the Y. W. C. A. Our most progressive effort was the conference (the first of its kind in many years) held by all clubs of the city. Its purpose was the discussion of teen-age problems. The renowned Dr. Slutz, guest speaker, gave much wise advice to America's future leaders and helped to prepare them for the paths that lie ahead. After a busy year of both work and play, the club meetings terminated with the annual mother-daughter banquet in May. An unusually large number attended this last social event of the season, when the seniors paid their farewell tribute to teen-age clubs. The girls of East will always remember the Student Club of 1946-47, for it was the understanding and co-operation of every one of them that made it so great a success.

Its activities were manifold and of paramount interest in the school and community. As a member of the Pawtucket High Schools' Workshop. East played a prominent role in a series of radio broadcasts presenting the story of the founding of the six New England states. “Early New England Days” was given in six parts. The first, entitled Men of Action , was a dramatization of the landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth. Paradise in the Wilderness”, presented on March 25 and the second in the series, was the familiar story of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. On April 1. in the third broadcast, the club members featured the life of Roger Williams. Interrupting the New England series, a dramatic program based on the life of Thomas A. Edison was presented in recognition of Science Fair Week. On April 15, the New England series was resumed in a program honoring the English discoverer of the Connecticut valley. This was followed on April 22 by the chronicle of John Mason, founder of New Hampshire, while the final presentation, offered on April 29. was the account of Fort Dummer. entitled Land of the Green Mountains' . During Music Week there was a special broadcast, a dramatic story based on the life of Marian Anderson, the great American contralto. Musical numbers were rendered by students on the same program. Socially, too, the Radio Club was active. The organization sponsored a roller skating party and an evening performance. The proceeds of the former paid for the pins awarded to senior members, while the money from the latter helped purchase a sorely needed radio recorder. This recorder will be used by both the broadcasting classes and the Radio Club, to improve the voices of the members. The outstanding event was the annual trip to Boston, where the members were guests of radio stations and radio colleges. A special assembly was held on March 26. at which Mr. Powers, head of the New England Division of Publicity for the Yankee Network, was guest speaker. Mr. Powers enumerated the future possibilities of radio, explained the value of F. M. (Frequency Modulation) and the fascinating procedure of broadcasting by facsimile, and suggested the wonderful opportunities for high school graduates in the various fields of television. The officers of the 1947 season were as follows: Bud Heald, president: Elaine Pearson. vice-president: Mildred Croke, secretary: Clinton Pearson, treasurer: and Barbara Houle, librarian. 76 Cinemasters THE Cinemasters' Club played a role of paramount importance in the curriculum of East. Its chief function was to supply many classes with visual aids which supplemented and motivated the study of numerous subjects. Science and history classes, in particular, made frequent use of the films. Many schools have only just introduced visual education into their system, but East has been using it for many years. Under the experienced leadership of Mr. Berube, the members of the club gave up many of their study periods to run films on divers topics for the different classes. Besides presenting the movies, the members operated the sound system in the auditorium. The use of films for instruction and enjoyment in the auditorium was limited, for the Cinemasters did not possess an auditorium projector. To overcome this handicap, the group started a fund to purchase the necessary equipment. The proceeds of the successful St. Patrick's day dance, sponsored by the club, formed a nucleus for the fund. Training provided by work with the Cine-masters will prove valuable to those who wish to make motion picture projecting their career. During the war, many former Cinemasters, who had entered the Services, obtained fine positions as projector operators, for the Armed Forces utilized visual education in the training of their men. The club began the year with elections at which the following officers were elected: Walter Choquette. president: Ralph Ether-ington. vice-president: Ardashes Nahabedian. secretary: and Aram Chobanian. treasurer. The members spent most of their time presenting films to classes, but they also found time to teach the sophomore and junior novices how to operate the equipment. Business meetings were carried on every Wednesday afternoon in Room 216. After the regular business was completed, the group cleaned and spliced torn film in preparation for its use at any moment. To familiarize the groups with their equipment, instruction films were shown once a month in place of a regular weekly meeting. Because of the compactness and the simplicity of operation, the DeVry apparatus was used. At the close of a busy and successful season, the Cinemasters held their annual party, at which they enjoyed movies and. later, refreshments. CINEMASTERS First row. left to right C. Matoian. A-Pikul.

Hie Classbook Board CLINTON PL ARSON Editor HELEN WSZOL Assistant Editor and An Editor SHIRLEY DOTT Business Manager ARAM CHOBANIAN Assistant Business Manager THE REDJACKET, a record of our high school days, may be compared to a fabric into which is woven the pattern of our life at East. We of the Classbook Board have attempted to weave together into a design truly representative and accurate the threads which our classmates of '47 have furnished, endeavoring to create an artistic and worthy memento of our efforts in this most formative and important period of our lives. To Miss Elizabeth T. Howes, our friend and adviser, we owe our deepest appreciation for her patience and encouragement during the hours in which she worked so tirelessly with us. Without the valuable assistance of Mrs. Lottie B. Carpenter and the Art Department we would have been unable to achieve the artistic merit of the REDJACKET. Mrs. Carpenter and her assistants worked long and laboriously in creating a book of unusual beauty. The cost of our fabric is of necessity great. To all those who have helped us financially we are indeed grateful. As our pattern grew from a few threads we became imbued with the desire to set perfection as our goal. We struggled many hours, diligently writing articles, securing advertisements, and attending to multitudinous details. We have toiled in vain if you. our fellow classmates, do not consider pleasing the design we have achieved. We have done all in our power to produce a book containing memorable events, at which we all may look in retrospect as we weave the ever-lengthening pattern of our lives. May the school days reflected in our classbook always inspire us and help to make us worthy of an enviable heritage.

Three One-Act Plays J IT was Saturday evening, March 8. 1947, and the East High thespians, after taking a hasty, last-minute look at their lines, were again presenting the annual three one-act plays. Each participant had the ardent hope that his play would be chosen to represent East in the state festival. “The Managers by Joseph C. Lincoln, “Judge Lynch by John William Rogers. Jr., and The Woman Who Understood Men by John Kirkpatrick were the competitive plays presented by the East Senior High Dramatic Society. Hiram Salters (Fred Heald) and Tim Tiddit (Stanley Moytl), uncles of Gertie (Dolores Baldani) in “The Managers , discovered that, contrary to their belief, Gertie was the true manager of their household. The dramatic play, Judge Lynch , was a story of a grave miscarriage of justice which occurred in the South. The characters in the play were Mrs. Joplin (Madge Gallagher), her daughter Ella (Dorothy Arnold), her husband Ed (John Whiting), and the stranger (Abe Nathanson). In the humorous play. The-Woman Who Understood Men”, the happy life of Judy (Barbara Houle) was greatly upset when Susan (Betsy Soule) related a headful of gossip about Ed (Joseph Brisco). Judy's fiance. Fannie (Beverly Partridge), Judy's mother, believed she understood men. especially her husband. Jim (Ronald Moore), so she gave Judy some advice, which only succeeded in making affairs worse. When Judy took matters into her own hand, all was settled to the satisfaction of everyone concerned. The judges. Miss Irene Carlin. Miss Mary McMahon, and Mr. Tilden B. Mason, selected Judge Lynch” as the winning play, which was presented in the Rhode Island Drama Festival. The enthusiastic applause, as the final curtain fell, proved that the one-act plays, under the expert direction of Miss Flora S. Curtis, were once again an outstanding success. -4 83 Dramatic Society Award NE of the brightest events recorded by the Rf.DJACKHT is the presentation of the annual Dramatic Society Award. Each year on Class Day the Senior Dramatic Society makes an award of fifty dollars for the advancement of their education to the most prominent boy and girl in the senior class. However, if either of the recipients does not intend to further his or her education the money is returned to the Dramatic Society treasury. The students receiving this honor are chosen for their character, high scholastic standing, school spirit, and participation in extra-curricular activities. No one can be considered eligible who is not a member of both the Dramatic Society and the Rhode Island Honor Society. Considering the aforementioned qualifications, the members of the senior class vote for the boy and girl of their choice. Thus six candidates are selected. These names are then submitted to the faculty, who make the final decision. We. their fellow classmates, are proud of the winners. MADGE GALLAGHER CLINTON PEARSON TRIBUTE T () Miss Curtis THIS year marked the culmination of Miss Flora Curtis' twenty-six years as director of the Senior Dramatic Society. During those years Miss Curtis worked unceasingly for the good of the organization. Nothing that would contribute to a superb performance was overlooked. Consequently, the name of East High has. in recent years, stood for the best in high school dramatic circles. Twice under her directorship plays from East have received the coveted rating of Excellent in the New England Drama Festival. This honor was attained first in 1937 with The Old Lady Shows Her Medals , and again in 1946 with Rosalind . Twice before in New York competitions her direction won first places for East. A picture of East's cast of The Valiant may be found in the book. Short Plays , by Knickerbocker. Outstanding presentations. not in competition, were such comedies as You Can't Take It With You . Smiling Thru . Disraeli , and The Rivals , and the two mystery thrillers. Arsenic and Old Lace and The Cat and the Canary . Without Miss Curtis. East High would be unable to look in retrospect on such a long, unbroken record of successful productions. In casting, she seemed to possess some sixth sense in the form of an uncanny ability to fit the right people into the right roles. Even at the crucial moment, curtain time, her poise and confidence in their success were transmitted to the most nervous actors and actresses. Consequently the plays, proceeding smoothly and with a minimum of prompting, were glowing tributes to a master director. The name of Miss Curtis and that of the Dramatic Society are synonomous. For twenty-six years she has been the very heart of that group, bringing renown to East in the theatrical field. The Class of 1947 feels especially privileged to have been the last group to enjoy two full years under her expert guidance. We realize and deeply appreciate all that she has done for us. We extend our sincere thanks and best wishes to Miss Curtis, our director and friend. -4 85 WHAT A LIFE Hint row. left to right: J Brisco. A. Hog-garth. E Stewart. B Doyle. 1 Grocoti. I Pearson.

Curtis produced another dramatic and monetary success on December 6. 1946. John Whiting excelled in the role of Henry Aldrich, a gaunt, timid, not too bright high school student who was constantly embroiled in all conceivable types of amusing difficulties and desperate situations with his mother, his girl, the eccentric faculty, and the strong arm of the law. Mildred Croke starred as Barbara Pearson. Henry's sweet, intelligent, faithful heart throb; and Helen Wszol portrayed Mrs. Aldrich, his very devoted and patient parent. A dictatorial, pompous nature, a bouncing gait and a weighty, dominating tone of voice characterized Mr. Bradley (George Naza-rian), the principal: and a handsome visage plus modern ideas in school supervision and romance distinguished Mr. Nelson (Joseph Brisco), the assistant principal. Barbara Hall excellently enacted the part of Miss Shea, Mr. Bradley’s highly efficient secretary and a woman of combined stuffiness, sweetness, and barely noticeable dry wit. Henry’s arch hate and the unscrupulous villian of the plot was George Bigelow (Edgar Johnson), a robust, boisterous, belettered athlete, a slippery school shick, the smartest pupil of his class, and a sly crook. Ferguson (John Hutchinson), a muscular, square-jawed. raucous voiced, dull-witted detective completed the main characters of the play. However, the story was greatly aided by distinguished acting in the smaller parts. The other faculty members were as follows: Patricia Reynolds as Miss Smith, a flighty, airy teacher of music; Beverly Partridge as the stern, uncompromising Miss Eggleston; Gwen Powell as Miss Johnson, the energetic gym instructor: Beverly Gorman as the complain ing Miss Pike; and Stanley Motyl as the cynical, cruel Mr. Patterson. The remainder of the cast included Abe Nathanson as a hilariously comical sophomore, Robert Cloutier as Mr. Vechitto. a bewildered peddler, and Elaine Pearson, Barbara Houle, Lillian Newman. Norma Nelson. Donald Gale, and Ronald Moore as studentvS. Drawing funny pictures of the faculty, cheating in history exams, bickering and fighting with George, and wooing of Barbara soon led Henry into a mirthful stew of difficulties, but the incriminating evidence of his stealing the brass section of the school band expelled him from classes. The ludicrous situations from the opening to the closing curtain and the applause at the revelation of the true culprit literally convlused the large audience. Credit is due to the actors, the stage crew, the business staff, the properties and costume committees, the faculty assistants and all others, including the appreciative audience, who were in any way connected with the production. However, the highest praise belongs to our director. For her expert guidance, her endless efforts, her moral inspiration and comradeship, the Class of 1 947 and the cast of What A Life” thank Miss Curtis, dean and director. 86 }s— 4 r flic Rivals’ THIS year, as the annual senior play, the Dramatic Society presented Thomas Sheridan’s costume comedy, The Rivals . Long popular among playgoers everywhere, and a special favorite of Miss Curtis, it was fitting that it should be presented as the finale to her career as director. The role of Lydia Languish, the headstrong and hopelessly romantic heroine, was enacted by Mildred Croke, while Clinton Pearson took the part of Captain Jack Absolute, alias Ensign Beverly, her lover. Outstanding among the supporting players were the following: Madge Gallagher as Mrs. Malaprop, the elegant lady with a passion for fine sounding words, which she never failed to misuse: Edgar Johnson, who portrayed Bob Acres, the boastful but not too brave suitor for Lydia’s hand: John Hutchinson as Sir Lucius O'Trigger, a middle-aged Irish gentleman, who was also desirous of obtaining the fair Lydia for his own: and Fred Heald as Jack’s determined, opinionated father, Sir Anthony Absolute. Others in the cast were as follows: Dolores Baldani as Lydia’s temperamental cousin, Julia: George Nazarian as the ardent Eaulk-laud, Julia’s lover; Eileen Harrop as Lucy, Lydia's sly, flirtatious maid: Robert Cloutier as Fag: John Desautels as David: William McCreery as Thomas: and Betsy Soule as a maid. The plot centered around the romance of the lovely heiress of seventeen, Lydia Languish. and a man whom she believed to be a penniless ensign. Her aunt. Mrs. Malaprop, strove in vain to persuade the obstinate Lydia to accept the proposal of Bob Acres. When Sir Anthony Absolute proposed for his son, Jack. Mrs. Malaprop accepted with alacrity. The day of young Absolute’s first visit arrived: Lydia, determined to reject him, was astonished to find, not a stranger, but her beloved Beverly. Believing that this was a clever ruse on the part of her lover, she fell in with the plan, but on learning that it was she who had been deceived and that her ensign was really Jack Absolute, Lydia flew into a rage. However, true love conquered pride, and every one was finally satisfied. Credit is due the cast, property managers, costume custodians, stage crew, and business committee, all of whom worked assiduously to make this production successful. Lastly, for her untiring efforts and never ending patience, we thank our director, Miss Curtis. THE RIVALS First row. left to right. B. Soule. M. Gallagher. W. McCreery. D. Baldani. H. Harrop. M.

Rob inion, B. Gilbanr Football WITH fourteen letter men returning and with a pair of experienced co-captains in the persons of Fred Connolly and Fred Harrison. Coach Alex Nahigian began late in August to mould East's football eleven for 1946. Determined that there would not be a recurrence of the preceding season, in which an underdogged but always fighting East squad won but a single contest. Mr. Nahigian, adequately assisted by line coach Phil Couhig. drilled his charges in the essentials of football. The first game of the season, resulting in a scoreless tie, was played with the Cougars of North Providence High School. During this contest the teams compiled a total of over six hundred yards. East's first victory, a 6-0 triumph, arrived with the next meet, which was played with Hope High School. In the following game, however, the Red-jackets were heavily outclassed by a speedy Portsmouth. New Hampshire, team, the final score being 25-7 in Portsmouth's favor. After a respite of two weeks, the team journeyed to Newport only to be defeated 26-13 by a snappy Rogers High School eleven. East again hit the victory trail with a 19-0 triumph over Mount Saint Charles on the fog shrouded grounds of the McCoy Stadium. However, the next game was a different tale: the Redjackets were on the wrong end of a 24-0 score compiled by Woonsocket High School. East's most notable effort of the season followed: it was the game played to a capacity crowd with our city rival, West High School. With the team tearing the opposing line to shreds and the backfield running like gazelles, the 'Jackets had run up a 26-6 score before the final gun sounded. This was the greatest number of points scored by any East team in the intra-city series since its inception. The last two contests of the season resulted in defeats for the Redjacket eleven. In the first game with Malden Catholic, East, fighting valiantly, lost a close 20-1 3 heartbreaker. On Thanksgiving day. in the annual classic with Saint Raphael Academy, the grid forces of East High School suffered their worst defeat of the year, a 30-0 trouncing. Although the team as a whole played well, it was severely crippled by the loss, in preceding games, of five of its key players. Among these were both co-captains. During the season there were many outstanding players, but the team was exceptional because of the fight and determination it showed in each contest. 92 }■ •- Basketball EAST'S defending state champion basketball team came up with an aggressive, fighting squad that, in spite of its lack of veteran ball players, narrowly missed capturing the state crown for the second successive year. With the fast breaking front line of A1 McCrae, Ray Rossi, and Bob Shannon, and with capable backcourt guarding of Clint Pearson and Captain George Kayata. the speedy 1947 Redjackets captured second place in the fast moving Class A League. Then, after earning their right to participate in the State championship tourney, the 'Jack- ts plowed through Woonsocket 55-43 with plenty to spare. But. in the semi-final game with Central, the Nooney men reversed their form and lost to a hard driving Black and Gold five 38-37. in a heartbreaker. It was. however, in the consolation tilt with the Class A champions. De La Salle, which had previously beaten East twice, that the Easterners showed their best ball of the tourney. De La Salle, beaten tournament favorite, had things under control until, in the final stanza. East, led by Gabby Kayata and A1 McCrae. started to click, and upset the Newporters 58-57 to close the season. Early last November. Coach Art Nooney looked over his basketball candidates and se- lected Captain George Kayata. A1 McCrae. Ray Rossi. Clint Pearson, Bob Shannon. Dick Buba. Frank Babiec, Mike Vartanian. Jerry Lucchesi, Paul Blease. and Henry Kay to represent the Red and White for the coming season. Due to lack of experience, and handicapped by little work as a unit, the East quintet dropped their first five tilts by heart breaking scores, losing to St. Raphael 45-44. to West-field twice in close games, and bowing to both Portsmouth and La Salle. Then East finally began to play the brand of ball it was capable of playing. With McCrae. Rossi, and Kayata leading the scoring. Shannon playmaking, and Pearson assuming control of the boards. East beat St. Raphael, West. East Providence, Rogers. Central. Cranston, and Mount Pleasant twice each, losing only to La Salle again, and twice to the capable De La Salle Crusaders. a fact which gave them second place in the league. Heading the list of stars were Captain George Kayata and A1 McCrae. two stalwarts who deserve much credit. But. even with these two boys, this year’s club wouldn't have done much without the work of sophomore Ray Rossi, of Bob Shannon. Clint Pearson, and the capable reserves who made the team championship contenders. They all deserve applause. BASKETBALL Fit it toil', left to right: S Bourn, F. Ba birc. A McCrae. G. Kayata. H. Kay.

T RA C K TEA M IN spite of the fact that most of the key men graduated last year. Max Read's 1947 track forces can expect a reasonably successful season. With such rapid runners as Frankie Hannaway. Ernie Walsh. A1 McCrae. Clint Pearson. Ed Hamblett. Brendon Gilbane, Tom Hcnnick, and sparkling Joe Capineri, and with such field performers as Bob Carlson. John Hutchinson, and Jimmie Swindells, the current aggregation-is powerful in all events. This year, we look forward to a strong showing in Class A. and. in the state meet, we can depend upon the Easterners’ making a valiant attempt to wrest top honors. W REST LING T E A M [h ARLY this year a call was issued by Athletic Director Max Read for candi-' dates to form a wrestling team. Many boys responded and diligently trained under the direction of Coach Daniel McKinnon for their first match. This mat fray was held with Cranston High: East’s gladiators suffered a 32-3 defeat. In the three contests which followed this one. East lost two to East Providence by scores of 28-1 1 and 35-10. and one to Hope High's wrestling team. 25-8. However, as the REDJACKET goes to press, more matches still remain on the schedule. May they prove to be successful ones. 94 ji - GOLF TEAM EAST’S capable Golf team will be a real threat in the Interscholastic Golf League this season. The 1947 squad, led by Captain Fred Connolly, Tom Hennick, and Ray Barron, a trio of precision shooting, hard hitting lads from Seekonk, can cause a great deal of trouble for their opponents. Connolly and Hennick, holdovers from last year's excellent team, can be counted on to hold their own with any school boys in the state, while Barron, only a sophomore, shows promise of golfing greatness. We hope for big things from this year's linksmen. CROSS COUNTRY THOUGH they lost almost their entire 1946 Cross Country Team through graduation. Max Read’s 1947 edition came through with a comparatively good season. Led by Frank Hannaway, A1 McCrae. Ed Hamblett, Tom Hennick. Clint Pearson, and Dick Gray, the hurrying harriers defeated Woonsocket 24-35. captured fourth place in the Cross Country Carnival and the State meet, and surprised everyone by securing a third in the Class A championships. This year's team, though not as successful as runners of previous years, may well be proud of their record, for they started with very little material and achieved unexpected honors.

Boys’ Swimming Team J © THE 1947 swimming team, one of the strongest groups of natators ever to represent East High, compiled the enviable record of 10 wins. 1 tie, and 2 defeats in dual competition during the regular season. The Redjacket swimmers, led by a bevy of veteran tankmen, ran roughshod over all high school competition, losing only to two college junior varsity teams, the Springfield College Indians and the Brown University Cubs. Paced by veterans Bill Sonner. Joe Callery. Dave Roy. John Hutchinson. Tom Hennick. Leo Biagoni. Eric Karbowski. Bill McCreery. and Bill Simmons, and strengthened by new recruits George Rivard, Paul Blease, Ken Douglas, Irwin Max. and Bobby Brown, the Exchange Streeters splashed to victory over West twice. Moses Brown, Dean Academy, St. George's School. Brookline. Hartford. Worcester Academy, and the Brown freshmen. losing only to Springfield Junior Varsity and Brown Junior Varsity, and tying a strong Gardner. Massachusetts, aggregation. Early last December. Coach Max Read began to send his charges through their paces. After weeks of hard practice in the icy waters. East opened its schedule against the West mermen and vanquished them by a score of 39-27. This victory was quickly followed by successes over Moses Brown. Dean Academy, and Brookline, with the Easterners defeating them all by comparatively large scores. Then came the Hartford meet. The Hartford team. Connecticut state champions for the past ten years, came to the East tank and lost their first dual meet in 12 years, dropping a 34-32 decision to our speedy mermen. East’s winning streak, resulting in five straight victories, was snapped abruptly by the older, better balanced Springfield J. V. team, which overwhelmingly upset the Jackets by a score of 42-24. After this disaster, the Easterners returned to the victory column with a vengeance, downing St. George's School. West, Worcester Academy, and tying Gardner’s strong aquatic forces. East closed out a successful year by splitting evenly with the Brown Cubs, each team capturing a decision in its own pool. J he group's bid for a second successive New England title failed, however, when the Redjacket natators failed to outscore an im-oroved Gardner High outfit in the Brown Interscholastic and the Meehan Meets. East did. nevertheless, capture runner-up laurels in both these events. The following were some of the outstanding swimmers on this year's fine team: Bill Sonner. record-breaking backstroke artist; Joe Callery. graceful New England junior champion diver: Eric Karbowski, diminutive breaststroke stalwart: and the New England champion relay composed of Bill Sonner. John Hutchinson. Dave Roy. and Tom Hen-nick. 96 )5 - Baseball EARLY in March, long before the welcome cry of Play Ball was in the air. baseball coach Alex Nahigian had his battery candidates drilling within the confines of the school gym. Every morning before school b.gan, a large group of aspirants for positions as pitcher and backstop on the '47 edition of East's baseball nine assembled to go through routine practice. Among the candidates was a number of holdovers from the squad of the preceding season, once again hoping to clinch a place on the first team. In addition to these experienced players, there was a group of promising newcomers. As soon as the battery men had limbered themselves into condition, the rest of the qualified players reported: practice began in earnest at the high school field every day after school. After frequent and intensive drill, the contingent was ready for the opening game. The mainstay of the 'Jacket's mound staff was curve-ball artist Chet Nichols, a junior. Chet broke into the line-up during his sophomore year and from the start was most outstanding. With still another year left to play after this season. Nichols will undoubtedly earn star billing. Also twirling for the Red and White were sophomore Bob Roth-well and John Pimental, a junior. The catchers were Cappy” Asermely. a senior, and Joe Braganza. a junior. At first base for the Easterners was big Gus Tillquist. a junior and a mighty potent hitter. Covering the keystone sack for East was Jerry Lucchesi. Sophomore Ray Rossi covered the short-stop position for the Redjackets, while Bud Ab-grab was at the hot corner, or third base. Gene Richards was in left outfield, Charlie Blount, a senior, in center, and George Kayata, participating for the first time for the 'Jackets, was in right field. Only two games of the league have been played as the REDJACKET goes to pre's. The first contest resulted in a victory over Mount St. Charles, 16-8: the second was a defeat at the hands of East Providence in an eleveninning game. The score was 2-1. Here's luck to all the players in their '47 series. BASEBALL First row. Itft m right O Agostini, S Nahabcdian. A Asermely. G. Kayata. A Ab grab. J Lucchessi. Se ond row. M. V.ir lanun, E. Richards.

THE Girls’ Swimming Team of the past year had a semi-successful season. Although the group, coached by Miss Marjorie Furbish and Miss Ethel Taylor, lost both its meets with West High School, there were some compensations. The first was the two decisive victories by the seniors over the juniors and sophomores: the second, the breaking of four pool records by the star and captain of the team. Janet Moreau. The new records showed the versatility of Miss Moreau, who also starred in the freestyle, breast stroke, and backstroke events in the American Amateur Athletic Union contests. GIRLS’ VOLLEYBA L L TWELVE teams from the sophomore, junior, and senior girls engaged in a round-robin tournament. The games were contested on such an equal footing that three teams in the junior-senior division ended the season in a three-way tie for first place, while in the sophomore division there was a four-way tie for the first spot. This was a situation which called for a special play-off series. In the finals the “Lucky 13 , co-captained by Janet Moreau and Patricia Greenhalgh. emerged as victors, closely followed by “Kilroy’s Team”, captained by Evelyn Jones. 98 GIRLS’ BASKET BA L L EAST High has always been known for its exceptionally fine basketball teams, and this fact does not exclude the girls’ quintets. The past year teams composed of sophomore, junior, and senior girls took part in a lively tournament in which each squad in the senior classification played all the others in that same division. The sophomore and junior games were arranged according to the same plan. It was an exciting season in which the mythical winner’s crown in the senior class was finally won by the “Blue Socks, captained by Catherine Murphy. GIRLS’ BADMINTON BADMINTON has long been a favorite girls’ sport, attracting more participants than any other girls' extra-curricular sports activity: 1947 was no exception. After a number of practice sessions the girls entered an elimination tournament which would decide the singles and doubles championships, honors which require luck as well as skill. Although at the time of this writing no one has won the tournament, speculation about the favorites and about a possible upset is running high. Having no magic crystal we are unable to predict the winners, but we can and do wish the best of luck to all the contestants. GIRLS BASKETBALL First row. left to right: N Laird. L. Smith. E Jones. N.

E A I) E R S EVER faithful allies of the school teams, the cheerleaders were always ready and eager to shout their peppy cheers and urge the boys on to victory. Their colorful red and white uniforms formed a striking pattern both on the field at football contests and in the gym at basketball games. Whenever the boys were lagging behind, in need of moral support, the girls rushed out and led their classmates in backing up the players and encouraging them toward triumph. It can well be said that East's cheerleaders were somewhat responsible for its victories.
