Many of our classmates are now in the armed forces, others will be going soong We must stand behind them in their fight for freedom and democracy. One of the best ways to do this is to remain in school and educate ourselves for the peace that is to come, for our generation will have to keep that peace. We must learn to 'think clearly and to guide our government and people wisely, so that our boys will never again have to leave home for battle.

One year ago, the chapter had 52 members in the armed forces of our country. Today we have 94 serving under the flag. At the present writing, one boy has paid the supreme sacrihce, one has been reported lost in action, and a ,third lies wounded in Italy. A large service flag, with 94 ,blue stars, hangs in our chapter room, ever reminding us of the brother members serving in the foxholes and jungles of the Pacific, and on the battlefields of Italy. We are resolved that those of us remaining at home will not fail to do our part in promoting the war effort. Chapter members have invested hundreds of clollarslin war stamps and bonds. Scrap has been collected. E .ln the food-for-victory program, our boys have completed many garden, potato, poultry and livestock projects. The chapter hatched over 24,000 chickens during the past year. We have been traveling at an accellerated pace and we do not plan to slow up yet. Our program for the coming year will be more extensive than ever before. , V James Brown, Reporter ,arg 'Cf ff P I EJSA2!! f pw gf U IU' Q f 1 kl'Jr fiiff 1 f -CV F K f - T Q A vig' Yi off.

Patricia Cyr Junior Classical League The Latin classes under the direction of the junior Classical League Cwhich is composed of students continuing third and fourth year Latin and all A students contin- uing Latin for a second yearj has voted to take the responsibility of the school library. Under the direction of the League, some member from the Latin classes is on library duty during each period and after school. This system not only saves the student's time in taking the library card to room six, but, also, helps to keep the careless student from taking a book and not signing for it. Library losses have already been cut and the appearance of the library has been improved. New magazines have been placed in the library and about three hundred new books have been ordered. The League will assist in cataloguing them. The Junior Classical League hopes that, in continuing its work, it may continue to make improve- ments and to make our library a credit to the school.

Wliat are we going to do about it? We're going to make a comeback This may not happen for a few years, but the war will not last forever and when the boys come home again there may be some forgotten athletes who will start sports going strong again. ' A ' Last spring there wasn't much time for baseball, because the diamond was getting Ht only when one-session of school started. Then the boys took spring jobs and let base- ball alone. lt's a good sport: they like it-even if they 'don't win ALL. the time! Track was also another that was slighted. Quite a few of the boys turned out for the sport and did some dog-trotting before the snow completely melted. There was one time-trial, but 'then one-session came and track-men 'discarded their spikes for more important work. As for track this year-well, that's yet to be seen. Prospects don't look too favorable, though. X 4 I X The slump in sports, however, does not mean a danger point in physical htness. No, not at 'alll' 'lf you can easily do all the exercises that Coach 4Hanscom instructs in 'Phys- ical Education, you don't have to consider yourself by any means a weakling. We have Physical Education three time a week, so often that we don't have time to get soft in between practices. Although you hear complaints quite often about the toughness of this course, I think it has already clone a great deal to improve the health of the school. y Basketball The Wildcats won the Aroostook league this year, as- usual. -Remember, We have been champs for several years. However, we have only two' seniors onthe team, Captain Dick Roix, a veteran who has really shown 'a' lotof skill' 'in ' handling the ball, and Lefty Mcfllaufiin, a green player who has done surprisingly well for his first year of Basketball. If some of the Juniors could stay out of the services, we should have a first-rate team next year. Alice Aucoin, with his wonderful height, has contributed a great deal to the team by his high scoring. Neil Bishop, Jack Conya, Pat Hayes, and Vernon Tarbell are other very mentionable players. We also have some sophomores who are very promising: R. Keirstead, D. Duncan, and K. Hall. These boys are very fortunate in having Coach Bill Hanscom, one of the best coaches in the state, to instruct them. Boy, let me tell you, he knows his stuff! This fellow's earnest work has made many of the Wildcat teams famous. He has be- come very well known himself, as a result of his work. He has been working with the Presque Isle Athletic teams for several years and the deep mark of victories carved in the hall of fame of P. I. H. S. certainly proves his ability as a coach.

He is doing a very good job with the team, even under handicaps. We have had two meets, one at Easton and one here at Presque Isle. Although we didn't win in either of them, we made several individual places and had a lot of fun. Some of the boys also won their letters.

' The girls were compelled to take the physical training this year. I think that'-a greater part of them have enjoyed the program and suffered none the less from it. In fact, they even showed marked improvement. Bas'fetball was marked chiefly by the effort to urge inexperienced players to prove their abilities to the veterans UQ and were given equal opportunity for practice and to participate in class gamesf The honors were taken by the undefeated Juniors. Winter sports were once more introduced to the girls this year. There was an enthusiastic turn-out for this outdoor activity. However, many times the weather intervened with the good intentions of the girls, and unfortunately only a few girls succeeded in getting their points. Also, the winter season was comparatively shorter this year. What is a basketball game without cheer-leaders? Much enthusiasm and school spirit wasicreated at the games this year by our head cheer-leaclers: Betty Kimball, Mary Mills, Rowena Gallagher, and Mary Tuck. 'They were efficiently supported by Marguerite Theriault and Margaret Theriault. The girls composed new cheers and we hope that next year we will have as good a cheer-leading group as we had this year. The reflections of the year's endeavor is shown in the numerals and letters won by the girls. The numerals are awarded to those achieving frfty points, and a letter P is given for one hundred points. The ultimate goal is the Maine letter M, certificate and pin. jean M. Kelley, '44 fCXC!Z6LlZq65 FLASH! The Presque Isle High School now brings to you the up-to-date news from the outside world!

Every- one knows about his flashy ties-uh--cravats, if you're high-tonedg his sharp' sport coat with which he adorns himself: the zoot trousers and his tricks. Why, it is even rumored that Otto is the one who inspired Barrymore when playing Julius Caesar, to sneak furtively into the Senate and tell them, Hjogsent me. Has anyone any butter?7' Yes, you know all this, so I, as the inimitable Cicero would say, shall make no men- tion of these things. N Well, Otto was quietly strolling down the hall making like a jeep on a Maine road fhe calls it dancingj accompanied by his own hoarse croaking, when who should he meet up with but me, who was trying to make a noise like a powder-puff dropping on a cushion as I inched my way down the corridor. Ah-ha! ! whispered Otto, in a stentorian voice. Evidently he realized I was endeavoring to escape notice. Sh-sh-sh! Don't you ah-ha me. I despise being ah-ha'd at, I enjoined in my most commanding tone. Ah-ha! l he leered nastily once more. I-le apparently did not recognize the sound of authority which I had so painstakingly put into my statement. Otto was going to be a bad gremlin, I could see that. Otto is hard as steel when one is asking a favor. I-low would I melt his heart? Then, lo! and behold! I forthwith received a divine inspiration from the gods. Oh, what craftiness! what cleverness! I would break him down by stating my case poetically: O, Otto! practice on somebody else your fun F or I have a ,rendezvous with Miss Conant, O, woe! And my theme is not yet done. Please make' no noise when I try to go Away from Room I6, for if she sees me sneak out Shell say If that foolish lout Thinks he can put something over on me, He's entirely wrong And he'll sing a new song When I give him for rank a big D. In spite of this poem, this grand epic, Otto was unmoved. I-le even said Ah-ha again, then he rapped out his proposition to me and the rest of the world, for, ignoring my wild gesticulations, his voice has the unpleasant audibility of a groan in a grave- yard at midnight. l..issen, Doc, proclaimed that measle: Shame on ya' for not doin' yer Eng- lish! Wliy, where d'ya s'pose I'd be if I hadn't did my English? Huh? You ought'a be led in there and handed over to yer well-deserved fate, but-I tell ya what I dd fer ya, Doc. F or the small consideration of ten bucks, you can buy enough of my friendship to help ya through. fpausel- eight, nine, ten fishg that's right, Doc, an' remember, always feel free to call on me at any time. So-long, Doc, be seein'-' Robert, are you ready to pass in that theme yet?', No, I- And that germ got my ten bucks! Oh, well, they suffer in the South Pacific, too. R.

C. Sprague, '44 Time As the bird flew over the lake he seemed like two. His reflection was perfect on the smooth water. The sun's red beams were playing tag As they ran across the water's top. But soon they grew tired and all disappeared And darkness walked in. The water was shiny and black As the bird returned to his nest. He didn't seem as beautiful or young As when we had seen him before: l-le had lost his color and He seemed tired and old. My Favorite Program My favorite radio program Is the one in which The actors are always fighting, Every Tuesday, without a hitch The man in the program gets 'boiling mad, But his wife stays gay and jolly.

Of course Molly tries to calm him, But his voice just gets louder. By this time he's calling someone names, I-le's a regular keg of powder. Then there is the announcer, A man who gets the bird. Miss Conant, such a vocabulary! Where does he get those words? So I end my tale of fiin About the best program on the air, For Fibber McGee and Molly Are radio's funniest pair. Billy Currier M. Bartlett, '45 The following tribute was written about one of our alumni but it is printed here in memory of all. CCKay7! Clayton Sprague was the Hrst P. I. l-l. S. boy to be killed in action. Clayton's nickname was Kay. Most of the fellows of I. l-l. S. knew Clayton for his. quietness. Kay always drove a model A Ford, which the Drum and Bugle Corps called Butter Cup . ' Now Butter Cup was no ordinary Ford, because when we fellows heard it com- ing we knew Sonny Nye and Kay had a football and both were always ready for a game. Kay was never captain because he wanted the other fellows who liked to captain to have the chance. ln the hudclle, though, we always called on Kay for the play which should come next. Butter Cup was also known for its friendly driver, Kay. He never drove by a fellow who was walking. When he started down town at noon, Butter Cup was always loaded. When he came back Butter Cup was still loaded, only with different fellows. Why? Because Kay did not give just certain ones rides, a schoolmate was a sehoolmate. There was no one Kay disliked and there was no one who disliked Kay . I knew Kay for only two years, yet l knew him as well in those two years as I could have in twenty. I-le had courage: if there is anyone who is in doubt, ask his plane mates. I do not know the fellows who flew with Kay but I'd be willing to stake my life on the bet that Kay had as much courage as any man on that ship. If Kay had known he was going to be killed on that last trip, if he had thought he would have a chance to save another's lifeg or a chance to help preserve a country where there will always be a Drum and Bugle Corps, a football or baseball game, Kay would climb into the turret with little if any hesitation. As long as there are fellows left like Kay Sprague, the United States of America will never be under the dictatorship of the Nazis or Japanese. People say Kay is dead, but Kay is not dead. There are still many Ameri- can boys like him and still memories in his friends' minds. No, Kay will never die. D. Kelley, 45 lAliilkjfJi2.XX 'Sesxhrwx Hmm SW Vw? with -..
