SCCREBOARD DEDICATION wif The dedlcqngn The burning of the bill Guided by Mr. Colegrove, the Class of '48 con- tributed a greatly appreciated item to the school. It raised the money and purchased an electric football scoreboard as a memorial to the veterans from G.H.S. This electric scoreboard was nothing commonplace, it was the best. As modern as the Yankee Stadium's, our scoreboard was appropriate for the sensational championship Greenwich team for which it was first used. The good wrought by this service was not limited to the football field. Motivated by the need of finances, the Class of '48 sponsored two successful dances, with Bibee James' Orchestra. It was a noble deed of that class to not only present the scoreboard to the school, but dedicate it to the G. l.'s from Greenwich High. However, we shall be more likely to think of it in connection with the Class of '48 than to remember it as the memorial for which it was intended. Dances sponsored by the debtors

SENIOR CLASS CL SOPHOMORE CLASS Not to be outdone by the fresh- men-or the upperclassmen, for that matter-the sophomores financed the purchase of a new electric score- board for basketball games in the boys' gym. With the able assistance of Mr. Ralph Ferdinand, faculty advisor, the sophomores gave a dance in January which proved to be a big success. Yes, we're proud of our sophomores and their im- portant contributions to the year's events. And last, but not least, we have the seniors, who with,the expert advice and help of their faculty advisor and friend, Miss Miriam Hardy, presented an extremely hilarious Senior Vaudeville. ln addi- tion to this production, the seniors combined their time and energy'to give the students the best possible Senior Prom, the acme of the year's social events.

Under the guid- ance of Mr. Warren Lewin, faculty advisor to the class, these under- classmen conducted a successful Freshman-Night dinner, with music furnished by Peter Schmidt and his freshman band. JUNIOR CLASS Still more spectacular was the expensive, but practical purchase of an electric scoreboard for foot- ball, which was erected on Have- meyer Field in time for the first home game. This contribution was financed by donations, class dues, and by dances given by the Junior Class during the fall of the year. Just as eventful was the Junior Prom, which, under the direction of Mr. Allan Colegrove, faculty advisor, had a large turnout of students for one of the biggest events of the year.

Art Clubs All who are interested in art or desire an opportunity to display their talent have a chance to belong to one of the art clubs. Membership in the various clubs depends upon how advanced their studies and accom- plishments in art have been. The apprentice art club members belong to a group called the Daubers. As they progress, they are initiated into the G.H.S. Art Club. Finally, when they have achieved a high stand- ard, they are selected for the National Art Honor Society. In the past year these three clubs have planned and presented art exhibits. By far the most active art group is the National Art Honor Society. Consisting of tour members, with Vin- cent Giuliani as president, this organization completed a successful season of tours to exhibitions and pageants. Greenwich High's N.A.H.S. has the distinc- tion of being the only chapter of that society in exist- ence in the East. ART HONOR SOCIETY Left to right: J. Giuliani, S. Failla, V. Giuliani, I.. Wilkins
