The officers are- as follows: Ambrose Reinhalter, president: Arthur Person, vice-president; Carol Parker, secretary; and Stanley Zanotti, treasurer. The Tri-Mi-Y is having an active year. The able officers of the group arc these: Dorothy Fret , president; Marylyn Craig, vice-president; Virginia Keefe, secretary; and Mary Powers, treasurer. The initiation, the induction, the Hayride, and the joint meetings with the Hi-Y are a few of the various activi- ties carried on. At the sound of the one-minute bell a group of efficient pupils leaves for a known destination. The Traffic Squad faithfully serves the school by taking care of the steady stream of pupils passing to and from classes. Under the direction of Mr. Deane the members of the Squad keep the corridors quiet and orderly. The Hi-Y, under Mr. Reardon’s direction, deals with the actual problems in the lives of boys and attempts to cultivate desirable personal attitudes and good conduct among the members. George Ross, president of the group, is assisted by Kail Rogers, vice-president: Bill Pelto, treasurer: and John Mitchell, secretary. A helpful organization is Miss Coulnian’s Library Staff, the officers of which arc the following: Doris Forsythe, president; Mary Merrill, vice-president; Marjorie Melong, secretary; and Phyllis Johnston, treasurer. The Library Staff keeps the shelves in order and, by assisting at the desk, helps students locate material. Under the guidance ol Miss 1'uthill and Mr. Nelson, the Glee Club made its first public appearance at the Christmas Concert. The skill of this group was apparent, later, at the Vermont State Festival and at the Spring Concert. Mrs. Carroll lias proved to be a ministering angel in her haven of peace and quiet — the Health Service room. When a pupil develops a mild case of disasteritis, he flings his aching body on a cot, and there he slowly regains all his consumed energy. Mrs. Carroll is aided by a stall of girls, who help with the office routine. _S entice Under the direction of Miss Tuthill and Mr. Nelson, Quincy High’s orchestra is having a busy but enjoyable year. Evidence of the group's enthusi- astic effort was its performances at the Christmas and Spring Concerts. For the graduation exercises, yet to come, eager preparation is being made. � M v One of Quincy High’s inspiring groups is Miss Tuthill’s chapel choir, which adds richness and beauty to the assemblies on Wednesday and Friday mornings. The singing of the Lord's Prayer and of selected anthems enriches the day for the student body. One of the greatest contributions of Quincy’s band is the role it plays at the football games. Especially at that memorable North Quincy battle was its performance outstanding. The blue and gold uniforms, the colorful forma- tions, and the stirring music blended together in building up the morale of the spectators and of the Quincy players. Spanish The Christmas party, the movie South of the Harder, and the Spanish exhibit in the library are a few of the activities of the Spanish Club, a new club this year, directed by Miss Patriquin. The success of these events is due, to a great extent, to the officers: Marjorie Dolan, president; Anne Plansky, vice-president; Barbara Mitchell, secretary; and A1 Mullin, treasurer. An extremely busy organization is the Page and Stage Club, a popular dramatic group, which is the envy of many non-members. Miss Goudey, with the pupils, has presented notable dramas. As officers the members elected the following: Arthur Person, president; Iris Forsythe, vice-president; Carol Parker, secretary; and Albert Halloran, treasurer. Behind the many successful activities of the Girls’ Club lies the constitu- tive effort of the Board. Officers for the group include the following: Marilyn McMillan, president: Marylyn Craig, vice-president; Louise Keefe, secretary; Lois Harding, treasurer. The committee heads are these: Laura Giachetti, Community Service: Caroline Rahaim, School Service; Floris Gaston, Remem- brance: Jane Haskins, Sports; Dorothy Fret , Art; Betty Mayo, Hospitality; Pauline Sisto, Music. The Girls’ Club has become one of the most popular organizations in the school. Its many diversified activities, such as helping the Red Cross Chapter, a Variety Show, educational meetings, and assemblies, have stimulated the interest ol members ;tnd non-members alike. Community Service, Remembrance, Sports, Art. Hospitality, and Music Committees indicate the scope ol the club’s work. n C ueretA tliina I Comedy in One Act by FRANK DURHAM Faculty director: Miss Marr.

Throughout the year the twelve active members have participated in stamp exhibits and collections. The group also heard interesting speakers discuss the various aspects ol stamp collections. David I leak is presi- dent of the club and is assisted by Paul Joulicoeur, secretary-treasurer. The Future Homemakers of America, under the leadership of Miss Galli- van, with Pauline Holbrook, president; Edytlic McBcth, vice-president; Elsie Livingston, secretary; and Marion Bryan, treasurer, is completing its second year. One ol the highlights of the Club’s season was the dance “Cupid Serenade. Under the guidance of Miss Gallivan the Cafeteria Staff, a group of eleven or twelve merry girls, makes a pleasure out ol the prosaic tasks ol distributing food, cashiering, and cleaning up the kitchen, efficiently keep- ing the hungry students happy. These girls receive instruction in cafeteria management twice weekly. Under the leadership of Miss Sauter, and the officers, president, Carolyn Rahaim, and vice-president, Viola Ghcradi, the members of the Junior Red Cross filled and packed educational gift boxes, made party caps for St. Patrick’s Day to be used in one of the veterans' hospitals, and the typing classes typed thousands of cards for the Red Cross Drive. Cheerleaders Here they are, folks. Step right up and see the snappiest, peppiest cheer- leaders on the South Shore, a set of hardworking, energetic youngsters, who attended every game with unlxninding enthusiasm, adding sparkle and vigor to our Quincy Kah-Kahs. Three cheers for our cheerleaders!!! i 'ean is As we go to press, the tennis team, coached by Mr. Deane, is making prepa- rations for the coining season. Since five players are returning from last year’s South Shore Championship” team, the outlook is bright. Guido Risi, Vaughn Sarkisian. George W hite, Paul Flynn, and John Grant are the five veteran let termen. Coach MacLcan and his assistants, Mr. Sullivan and Mr. Rayner, produced a team notable for its fighting spirit and ability to come from behind. 'Flic team, under co-captains Bob Buckley and “All Star Carl Leone, compiled the enviable record of eight victories against two defeats and avenged, to the tune of 31 to , the losses of the past two years suffered at the hands of North on Thanksgiving Day. The Quincy Nigh School rifle team, directed by Mr. MacDonald and Miss Cox, competed in matches with several teams from South Shore high schools as well as in the bi-weekly matches of the National Rifle Association during the year's successfully completed season. Officers elected early in the year are as follows: Arthur Person, president; Theodore Lutz, vice-president; Stanley Zanotti, treasurer; and Francis Terrasi, secretary. The blue and White hoopsters, under the capable leadership of Coach MacLcan, enjoyed a successful season, winning nine games and dropping the same number. The team played the best of “Class A” opposition and provided its many ardent followers with the thrills of several closely fought games, losing a few by narrow margins and winning others in overtime by very close scores. The Sailing Club, directed by Mr. LeCain, has had a very profitable and enjoyable season. Led by Roy Yocrgcr, presiding leader, the members have discussed, and have learned about, racing rules, tactics, and other topics relative to sailing. There will be basketball for girls in the gym every Tuesday and Friday.” Ah, what lun! What a team! What all-round sportsmanship! Miss Allbright really didn’t know whom to root for when her girls played the alumnae — and won, 43-34! The team intends to beat Sacred Heart with the same dauntless spirit, fruit of many hours of hard work and pleasure. II you can't take a trip to the Catskill Mountains, the next best thing would be to visit the Y every Thursday and Friday afternoons when the juniors and seniors howl hard enough to awaken any Rip Van Winkle! ()l the two groups the “Pin-Down Girls” and the Hit or Miss” (who don’t seem to be missing) excel, and Frances Tantillo and Lorraine Righini are the foremost bowlers. The feminine Hi-Ho-Silvers of Q. II. S. straddled the saddle at the Blue Hills Riding Academy and Paddock’s last autumn and are now eagerly awaiting spring, when they’ll take to the trail once again. The Club, in separate groups, rides on Wednesdays and Thursdays for one hour — “an hour that ends too soon,” sigh our gay equestriennes. Sept.

The Quincy High School football team had an amazingly good season under the direction of Coach McLean. I ts success reflects brightly on the coach- ing stair of Messrs. McLean, Sullivan, and Rayncr. I'he squad rolled slowly at first, dropping ils first two games to Brockton and Brookline, with the scores of 12 to 0 and 24 to 6, respectively. Then, ris- ing from the slump, it rolled into high gear, bopping Cambridge Latin 15 to 7. Braintree surprised Quincy: nevertheless, Quincy tame out on top of a hard- fought 7 to 6 game. The Quincy touchdown came on a beautifully executed pass play to Lou Cugini. Leone bisected the uprights for the winning point. Quincy fans were amazed and pleased when McLean’s boys toppled powerful Weymouth 12 to 7. From here on the team was unbeatable. The next vic- tim was New Bedford, with a 20 to 7 score. The crowds came to sec the Blue and White blank Rindge Tech and Newton 13 to 0 and 19 to 0. A top-notch Lowell team stopped Quincy 13 to 13, but because of some infraction of the schoolboy rules Lowell forfeited the game to Quincy. As a climax came the Turkey-Day game with the red-hot, cross-city North Raiders. The stadium was a sell-out long before the game got underway. Thousands were turned away at the gate hours before the kickoff. Seat-hun- gry students were at the stadium at 7:30 A. M. Previous records meant noth- ing in this game: the winner was a toss-up. At the whistle both teams were ready and raring to go. Everything was in this game — school tradition, past losses, and. above all. a fiery competition between the schools. The whistle blew; the ball see-sawed up and down the field without a score. A few minutes before the half ended, the ball was knocked from a Quincy player's hands into the air, only to be snagged by a North player, who scooted 93 yards for a touchdown. The Bluc-and-White students and root- ers were heartbroken: they expected another of the hard-luck losses, like that of last year. However, they were mistaken, for at the beginning of the half the Quincy squad sped into action like Ferdinand the Bull stung by a bee. North’s line was pulverized with powerful line bucks, and passes were com- pleted for scores. At the final gun Quincy was driving toward North’s goal with a score of 31 to 6. Fighting through a season against first-class competition. Quincy finished with an 8 and 2 standing. Hard playing and fine sportsmanship brought well- deserved recognition of its excellent record.

Most of these games were so close that many were not dec ided until the last few minutes. Two of the games. North- bridge and Braintree, went into double overtime periods before Quincy won. The varsity squad which carried the Q. H. S. banners this year included Andy Pasqualc, “GifTy” Mc Kinnon, Eel Necdel, Carl Leone. Jac k Monahan. Joe Clauss, Bill Vargus, Don Lundin, Stan Crannnoncl, Gus Russo, Harold Hon- kalehto, and Dinny DiNardo. The Quincy J. V. squad, led by Jack Granville, (Jus Lawrence, and Charley Murphy, had a good season, winning thirteen games and losing three. In the first game of the season Quincy easily defeated Brookline 46 to 36 on the latter’s court. Moving to the Boston Garden, the Quincy team de- feated Gloucester 31 to 29. In their first home game the Blue and White hoopsters again trounced Brookline, this time 39-22, but lost a thriller. 28 to 26. when they traveled to Braintree. In its next two games, both on foreign courts, Quincy was defeated by North Quincy 47 to 24 and by Brockton 27 to 23. The Blues were very successful in their next few games, defeating Weymouth 35-33, Northbridge 35-33, Everett 37-31, and Norihbridge again. 49-31, losing only to a very good Durfee team 35-34. Quincy then ran into trouble, losing to Thayer Academy 46-43, Weymouth 38-27, tourney-bound North Quincy 36-28, Brockton, a second “Tech” team. 31-25, and a third tourney team, Durfee, 58-23. Quincy ended its home season in a blaze of glory, defeating Braintree 38-35 in a sudden-death overtime period, after hav- ing tied the score with only a second remaining to be played. Quincy was out-classed but never out fought; it was this will to win which gave Quincy the good record which it has. i sixly-seven Autographs Glass Ct emus Most Popular Boy Carl Leone Most Popular Girl Marjorie Harvey Prettiest Girl Virginia Keefe Class Adonis Martin Moran Most Versatile Boy Ambrose Reinhalter Most Versatile Girl Marilyn McMillan Class Politician Orfeo Salvucci Walter Bergman and Janet Burgess Class Genius Audrey Ojai.a Most Carefree Augustine Russo Best Girl Dancer Krnestine Morganei.i.i Best Boy Dancer Robert Hai.i.igan Class Musician John Homsy Class Artist Class Athlete Class Style Setter Most Dependable Most Sophisticated Man About Town Class Man Hater Class Woman Hater Most Likely to Succeed Class Heartbreaker— (irl Class Heartbreaker—Iioy Class Wit Class Clamour Girl Class Actress Class Actor Robert Barry Carl Leone Virginia Keefe Marylyn Craig Jessie Canning Paul Sullivan Bernice Lyman Donald Wilson Marilyn McMillan Barbara Kuja Dick O’Brien Augustine Russo Jessie Canning Pauline Sisto Sherman Kf.mpter Glass Qfill We, the Class of 1947, on depar- ture from the Quincy High School of the City of Quincy, County of Nor- folk.

On the other hand, some people’s eyes are turned to the little black shack on Columbia Street in Quincy, where Orfeo Salvucci. the campaigning candidate, lives in regal splendor. As you all know. Messrs. Salvucci and Reinhalter are lighting it out for the Retrogressive Party’s nomination. When Mr. Salvucci, the nation’s silver-tongued demagogue, was yesterday asked in the offices of Honka- lehto, McMillan, and Plaisted, his campaign managers, whether he was confi- dent of receiving the nomination, Mr. Salvucc i gave his customary brilliant and laconic answer, 'Absitively!

We’ve tried our best to participate in every school activity. Starting in September, five of our classmates—Dom Delforno, A1 Halloran, Don Lundin, Dave Montani, and Howie Willard — played on the varsity football team. Then, just to make sure, Joe Clauss and Don Lundin did their share in bas- ketball. Some of our would-be 'red Williams” warmed up their bats for the baseball season. How could one forget the football season without recalling the grace, charm, and ability of 48 s two drum majorettes, Ann Phelan and Frannie San- lucchi? The sweet music of the Chapel Choir and the Glee Club has seemed even more melodious to our cars because of the beautiful voices which several of the juniors blended with the others. Then there were the cheerleaders who raised the school spirit so high. This group was well represented by two juniors, Lucille Beaudoin and Alice Mos- cardelli. Now, for a little braggin’! Juniors have penetrated the Student Council, and much of the success of the organization’s dances was due to untiring efforts of those same members. Juniors were in the Newswriters, Band. Orchestra, Bowling Club. Rifle Club—to mention only a few. We have had the great satisfaction of electing four juniors to serve as our class officers. We proudly name James Brogioli as president: Lois Grassick, vice- president: Barbara Mitchell, secretary: and Charles Murphy, treasurer. We are in the middle — juniors, we arc called — but remember, this has been just a warm-up. Next year we intend to “shine. Doris Gomez '48 Oh, Misery! It’s too big: I'll always be lost. Seems to me that senior said there was an elevator around here that would ip me up to biology. There it is!” With such thoughts, we Sophs, babies to the upper-classmen, wandered about (). H. S. for the first time. But not for long! We soon learned there really weren’t escalators ’tween the second and third floors, that one never hurried to class, that one couldn’t have the same seat at every lunch, and that there was a complicated system of trading a study for a library period. As the year progressed and our Sophomore “boot training” continued, we youngsters began to “ketch” on. The football season loomed up as big as Fri- day’s geometry test did on Thursday night: and many of our fellas got into step in the pigskin parade. Natch! Many Sophs showed promise; and a duo specially on the beam, were defensive-man Jack Granville, and offensive-man (and sooo proud of his sweater) Charlie Pappas. Round this time, a call for cheerleaders was circulated, and the slick chicles gan to practice up. (Moth er, where’s the liniment?) Out of some eighty-five femmes, ten (Oh, Gosh! Isn't it wonderful?) girls were chosen, but did they sport their brand new outfits on Turkey Day. We’re gonna keep our optics glued to our J.

In the musical notes n G-Clef department, we Sophs were quite numer- ous in the good ole Q. II. S. Band, Glee Club, and Chapel Choir. Toward the year’s end we began to feel our importance around school. Having a natural flair for politics, we elected our c lass officers: Charles Pappas, president; Marion Bailer, vice-president: Joan Andre, secretary: and Richard Lints, treasurer. Two members were successful candidates for Student Council: Martha Casta and James Larkin. Yep! To quote, “We came, we saw. ’n we conquered.” (Please forgive us. Julius.)

What tickles your funny bone? Do the misfortunes of others make you laugh? If they do, you will enjoy this story of my grandfather. When he was in his prime, in the so- called good old days, my grandfather was (juite the athlete. One bright, sunny (horrible-hc-thoughi- alterwards) day he was demonstrating his athletic power at the running broad jump. “Clear the way! he shouted; and he started running lull speed ahead til he reached the starting line. Up he went, and ™ down he camc—up to his hips in the cesspool! Maybe you prefer the rather subtle classroom humor, h seems that one of the faculty had been worrying a great deal about the spotty attendance of her prize problem. She decided to speak to the assistant principal about it. After a very brief conversation, one of the gentleman’s special greeting cards was speeding to the home of the oft-missing student. The next day this reply was received: “Dere Teacher, If Fred is playing truant, he didn't lern it at home. We air church people and hain't got a card in our house.” Many other gems have come from the classroom. One day a science teacher was telling his physics class about the intricacies of the radio. “Incidentally,” he said, “last winter I got South America on the radio. Yes, my little crows and chickadees, I turned on the radio, opened my window, and got chilly.” Waiting for the non-too-spontaneous applause from his crows, the narrator was extremely surprised when a prize crow yelled out: “That’s nothing. The other night I turned on the radio, lit a lire under my bed, and got hot springs.” The hen-pecked husband and his stealthy early-morning arrival arc often the subject of the funny man, but read on to discover what happened to a Q. U. S. coed when she put in her pre dawn appearance. Climbing slowly and softly to her room, this lovely chick thought she had safely reached the door of her room only to have her father ask, “What time is it?” “One o’clock,” she answered in her mellowest tone as the clock struck four. “My, how that clock stutters,” her dad replied. Who could believe that in this day and age? I suppose she was only catch- ing up on her chemistry. As a certain faculty member would say, “Collecting ozone at Wollaston Beach.” page eighty-one continued on page SS Pardon U) 'IJoutk Do not misunderstand me. I would not for anything dispute the words of wealthy and oh-so-publie-spirited matrons, nor the treatises on child psychol- ogy which elderly, and therefore undoubtedly sagacious, gentlemen venture from their solitary lodgings to publish. However, I consider it my duty to my American contemporaries to edify the world in general on one point. I wish to state my theory that all members of the genus homo sapiens, between the ages of twelve to twenty, are not juve- nile delinquents. I cannot, of course, approach the aforesaid authorities on familiarity with the subject: since I cannot possibly claim to know intimately more than a thou- sand or so high school students. I do feel that it is rather peculiar (and a little disappointing) that I have never met a murderer, nor even a mere kidnapper, in my five or more years as, and I quote, “one of those teen agers.” Still. I must concede that to the sedate generation of our parents we must seem exceptionally wild! We do not conform to the rigorous standards to whic h they adhered in their youth. In fact, it would be almost impossible to imitate the decorum of the decade or so immediately following the first World War. Is it our fault that youth has become noisy and blatant, preferring the crowded, brightly lighted “juke joints” to the neonless little hostelrics — speak- easies, 1 believe they were called —which our predecessors arc said to have patronized? It is probably the advent of “vim and vigor vitamins that has made my generation energy-conscious. Therefore, one cannot justly blame us for the methods we find to expel the aforesaid energy. In this manner, jitterbugging lias replaced the time-honored Charleston and the stiff austerity of the Bunny Hug. jin r nglilx-lwo On every side, also, one hears criticism of the costumes worn by the teen- agers and those familiar words, When I was young, I wore sensible clothes.” Here I admit defeat. I must agree that our dress is rather puzzling. Hobby- socks mark us as the earlier generation was marked by Happing galoshes—a far more utilitarian article of wearing apparel—especially on warm days. Their charming cotton beach pajamas have been desecrated and arc now found in the form of the lowly dungarees, whose only asset is their absolute lack of fragility. Rouge and powder, so disgraceful on the faces of these young girls, at that time was confined to the knees. They were, at times, a thrifty generation, too. Designers of evening gowns could manage very nicely with a few beads, a feather, and a yard and a half of sheer material. To complete this “ensemble” there would be a pair of silver shoes with Ha by Louis heels. Lucky was the girl whose boy friend succeeded in getting his father’s cream- colored twelve cylinder roadster, complete with compartment for golf bag, for transportation to the Senior Prom. Now a maroon eight cylinder convertible, with push-button controls, is looked down upon by the one-time flappers because they don’t make cars like those of years ago.” Yes—styles have degenerated. Red nail polish is no longer daring, and no more do we see the sturdy raccoon coal nor the flattering dropped waistline. It is true—we can never attain the sobriety of the Roaring Twenties. If the evil of being young must exist, wouldn’t you rather belong to the era of juvenile delinquents” than to that of the flaming youth”?

What they hear obviously pleases them, for they keep coming back for more . . . tales of gallant women facing life’s harsh realities, hair-rais- ing dramas of murder and revenge, contestants per- forming crazy antics. Programs such as these have been existing for years and years, and they still man- age to maintain their popularity. The real purpose of the following brief sketch is to give you a general idea of what attracts these vast hordes to radios. The first classic of radio is the all-time all-timer, the Soap Opera. A Soap Opera tan be spotted at fifty paces by merely noting the length of the com- mercial-five minutes for the story, ten for the com- mercial. Beginning with a detailed life story of Chunkos, that excitingly different sandwich spread, the mellow-voiced announcer waxes loquacious in describing its mouth-watering “all-round goodness.” He ends in a disdainful note, leaving the listener with the distinct impression that anyone who doesn’t rush right out to the corner store and buy three jars of Chunkos is guilty of an unpardonable crime. The script of the Soap Opera is equally fascinating. Angelica Borgia” is the story of a struggling young soprano, torn between two desires: her driving ambition to reach the top in her profession and her secret desire to return to Four Sticks, a sleepy Midwestern town. Little does she know, however, that at this very moment, her hometown sweetheart prepares to wed another. What far-reaching effect will this new development have on Angelica’s future? Hmmm? Close on the heels of the Soap Opera in popularity is the notorious Quiz- Consequence Show. Six o’clock in the morning isn’t too unearthly an hour for “You Asked For It.” A gushy voiced “emcee” interviews a prospective victim who cackles shyly when asked if she’s a junior in high school. (Honestly, folks, she doesn't look a day over sixteen!) For being a really good sport—walking blindfolded and barefoot through a tub of boiled macaroni—the brave spirit is presented with a genuine mink handkerchief and a trunk of macaroni—boiled, naturally. The Detective Story also ranks high in favor. This program features, among other things, a hard-headed super sleuth. (Breathes there a radio detec- tive who hasn’t been hit on that unbreakable head of his at least once every pro- gram). a beautiful, but frightened girl (she’s invariably the guilty party), and a police inspector who is known for only one reason — his low-voltage brain power. The victims (always plural, never singular) on the popular Murder Program get a great deal of satisfaction out of proving to horrified listeners that being shot, strangled, or poisoned can be a trifle uncomfortable. For an interminable length of time, ghastly expressions of unendurable agony reach the listeners’ dinging cars. Moan, gasp, choke, groan! Finally the heavy thud of a falling body signifies the end of the victims and your misery. continued on page 88 pnge eighty-seven Comedians have a place in the hearts of radio listeners, too. The an- nouncer plays an important role here. His job is to insert sprightly commer- cials with a seemingly casual air. Very often you can hear him chuckle heartily in the background, waiting for an opportune moment to tuck in another bit of free advice. The comedian leads a hectic life. Because the hardened studio audience fails to respond with a roar of laughter to a so-called joke, he suddenly develops a severe case of ad libitis, an occupational disease. This dreaded malady leaves the comedian a trifle shaky; he fails to find his place on the script; the same audience is now completely overjoyed by this discovery; and the radio studio is filled with shrieks of laughter. I’d better end this stuff and nonsense right here and now. I simply shouldn’t want to miss even one installment of Boiis Woglinda, Male Baritone, which deals with the delicate problems a male baritone must face in this con- ventional world of ours. Priscilla Whin ON HUMOR continued from page SI Speaking of a hen-pecked husband, a doctor once told said-gentleman that his wife was a very sad case. Her mind was completely gone the physician stated. The husband replied that it was no wonder. Site had been giving him a piece of it every day for years. There are many other subjects for humor. The lovers is one of them. A classmate told me the other day that he called his girl “hinges” because she’s something to adore. Another favorite subject is the traveling salesman. Doggone that censor anyway. By this time you are probably saying, “Have you ever seen a mosquito weep?” To which I must reply, “No, but I’ve seen a moth ball.” The mention of balls reminds me. I must make like one and roll away, or maybe I should put an egg in my pocket and beat it. Anyway, so long! John Monahan righly-eight i Oise ruat I ton Twelve long years of excavation In the wells of education, Followed by my graduation, Only heightened my frustration. Seeking a means of alleviation, I derived the inspiration For this ditty of commemoration. Let us remember------ Mr. Rayner’s calculation Produced a case of asphxyiation When we received the information That it took more than memorization. Mr. Briggs’ dissertation On the laws of limitation After considerable consultation We received without negation. Mr. Cutler’s approximation On the state of this old nation Added to our illumination On the present administration. Mr. Phillip’s aggregation. Seekers for an occupation, Perhaps recalled his accusation, “You made an extra perforation.” One bright student’s application Of Mr. Lyons’ demonstration, Which produced foul contamination, Was overlooked as experimentation. Mr. Wilson's innovation, Current cinema presentation, Was greeted with some animation Since prices seemed to escape inflation. Miss McCarthy’s sore temptation Was to halt the infiltration Of those possessing the halluc ination That they had mastered pronunciation. If we possessed a small plantation, Connecticut, its fair location, I’m sure we’d cause a mild elation In Miss Call by its presentation. Miss Nevens’ noble resignation To a period of separation From the beloved English nation Deserves a “To London” reservation. Many of our congregation Also require some deliberation. Robert Holland’s abdication, Then John Mitchell’s inauguration, Effectively settled our administration. Those master minds in combination, Our diligent board of legislation. Did not impose undue taxation. This yearly magazine presentation Of vices and virtues of our population Marks the complete annihilation Of all my literary aspiration: For on and on without cessation I could continue this creation; But I must dispel the hallucination That any word by variation Can be tagged with the suffix—“ation,” So here it reaches its termination.

How can this be ac- complished? One of the most successful weapons active today against these breeders of war is the American system of public schools. Boys and girls from every en- vironment. nationality, race, and religion have the opportunity of meeting and knowing one another on a common ground where personal merit is the only- standard by which one is judged. This common ground extends from the classroom to the many extra-curri- cular activities offered by the average high school. Here students are grouped according to abilities and interests, rather than to background. Here they arc given the chance to excel in the field to which they are best adapted. All. however, can be of no avail if the individual is inclined to accept glibly any ideas which are thrust upon him, and to nurture these ideas as his own. This is the type of person for whom propaganda is designed, the type which follows blindly the Adolph Hitlers who spring up from time to time. Therefore, in public education, emphasis has come to be placed on indepen- dent thinking, the kind of reasoning that seeks out the wliys and wherefores of every statement; that formulates opinions; and that creates new ideas. In June the Class of 1947 will graduate — not only three hundred and eighty-seven seniors from Quincy High, but several hundred from North Quincy and more from Braintree and Brockton and Scranton and Dallas and Milwaukee and Seattle — about two million altogether. These two million have spent twelve years in the public schools, learning something not only about biology and history and English grammar, but also about the way to be independent, democratic world-citizens. Two million arc so few when compared to the vast population of this earth. Every man must be armed with reason, free thought, and actual infor- mation. if society is to be invulnerable to the propagandist's whisper, the fanat- ic’s harangues, and the rabble-rouser's rumors. Then let the united aim of this National Class of 1947 be to push the great idea of free, unbiased education for all out to the far corners of the globe, so that future generations may graduate in great international c lasses, the members of whic h are actually equipped to practice peace. page ninety Marilyn McMillan Jn t ros pecti on The water’s bubbling here below my feet; The sky’s a cobalt blue above my head; And all is peaceful.

Voyagers Emily Dickinson page ninely-two with apologies to Pearl Puck “Oh, it’s a rather large farm with lots of people and lots of work—can- ning to yon.’’ This and the fact that having snakes slipped down our backs would not be uncommon were all we knew about our adventure for August. We hoped that the terribly exciting situation of having seven girls to thirty boys would save us from vegetating with the vegetables. Good odds, we thought Of course, the big day came—and stayed for twenty-six days of something new and somewhat wonderful. Oh. yes! There was the close communion with the reptiles, and the hands that turned all the diderent shades of the rainbow (in this instance the lutes of vegetables and of fruit). Then, too, there was the penetrating calm and richness of nightfall, a time when it was so quiet you could hear every sound. There was the soothing dip of a paddle in a depthless and mirror-like lake: the feel and smell of damp hay, following a cloudburst which laughed in your face or a storm determined to cleanse the pit of everything it touched; the fatigued feeling that meant certain rest—all these things and so many more that one had time to think of, everything but the passing days. It is said that all good things must come to an end, but in this case it was not so. All the warmth of the sun, the spirit of cooperation and friendliness, the gripping sensations of the wind and the rain seeped through us like a mist. These are possessions which are personal, a stepping stone to future goodthings —and we have grown. I know it.

Ellen Laine. page ninety-three Joe was sitting on the steps of the barracks, puffing slowly on a cigarette after a clay’s training was over. Joe was fresh out of civilian life, a boot in the worst sense of the word, having joined the Marines only several weeks before. What a difference, lie thought, being stranded on this God-forsaken island off the coast of South Carolina, from strolling down the friendly streets of his home town! Me had had, to put it mildly, several misunder- standings with his sergeant and was feeling particularly miserable. He was sore at everyone and earnestly believed that the world was treating him unfairly. He was in a mood to do something drastic, and it came in the form of a decision—a decision that would call for action that very night. It was much later; and everyone, except Joe, was deep in the sleep of exhaustion. Joe slipped from his sack, out of the door, and into the foliage at the side of the road. He made his way to the mess hall. It was just about lime for the truck to be there. On other nights, while he had laid tentative plans, he had paid particular attention to the time of departure of the truck for the mainland. While the driver was receiving his last minute orders, Joe swung aboard and hid among the boxes. There were still the gate guards to pass, but they had no reason to be suspicious. Joe’s mind raced furiously with mixed emotions as the truck pounded over the well-worn road to the railroad station. Before the truck had come to a complete stop at its destination, Joe jumped off and ran into the shadows. There he paused and looked around for a hiding place where he could safely spend the next couple of hours before the freight he had planned to board came. He spied a thick grove of trees and bushes and made for them on the double. He heaved a great sigh of relief and almost choked on it as a voice startled him from tlie shadows. “Evening, son. You lost?” said the voice. Joe said nothing, but he could distinguish the outline of an elderly man silling on a stump. fnigc ninety four “Running away from something?” the voice continued. Still Joe was too dumbfounded to speak. “In the service, aren’t you?” “Yes,” Joe finally replied. “Where you headed, north or south?” “North. I live in Philly.” “What’s that you got on?” said the old man as he gave Joe’s outfit the once over. “Dungarees.” “Where’s your uniform?” “Won’t get it for six weeks yet.” “How you going to explain that to your folks?” “I’ll explain,” said Joe, not entirely sure of himself any more. “What’ll you do?” “I’ll get some clothes somewhere.” “Got any money?” “No, but I'll get some.” “Wouldn’t you be prouder to go home in a snappy uniform?” asked the old man forcefully. Well, I suppose so: but I want to go home now!” Joe said with less con- viction. “But the Military Police will ask questions!” I’ll answer them!” “Wherever you go, they’ll ask questions. Have you thought of that?” “Well, yes.” “Remember that it’s wartime and the penalty for desertion is death! What do you say? You haven’t much time to decide.” Joe consulted his watch. They wouldn’t have missed him yet at the base. He could still make it if the truck hadn't already started back. He ran towards the station, carefully keeping to the shadows. Thank God, he thought, the truck was still there. He managed to swing over the tailboard, and a minute later felt the truck sway to the weight of the driver. Thirty minutes later he was back in his sack, none the worse for his experience, but with a sense of joyous gratification. With the train whistle’s resounding in his ears, the old man stooped over and picked up the chains that were shackled to his ankles and walked into the night, his head low and the chains clinking.

L on6aence “Steve, if tlie princ ipal finds out who disconnected the spark plug wires in his car this morning, you'll gel hung,’’ Jack Ryan observed in a whisper across his Macbeth,” first period. “Aw, he won’t even know the crate doesn’t run til two-thirty,” the culprit declared stoutly. Strangely, he couldn't seem to feel that same assurance. Oli. yeah.” his pal hissed. “Who knows he wasn’t watching out the win- dow when you did it?” “He couldn’t have been; lie’s always in the office before school. You can t see the parking lot from there.” Despite this outward bravado, Steve was beginning a stiff battle with a wave of remorse. There was a real possibility Mr. Higgins had been on that side of the building or that some teacher had been a witness to his prank. “Zz . . —!! the classroom telephone. Miss Lorry was saying, “Steven Corby? —to the office right away? —all right, Mr. Higgins.” It was with mingled feelings of dread and defensiveness that Steve walked into the principal’s office; and to his guilty mind, the gentleman’s “Please be seated” sounded uncommonly severe. “You know, young man, I’ve been watching you —” This was hardly an encouraging opening sentence. “You’ll go far Somehow Steve was thinking of a reformatory. He tried to swallow the lump in his throat to explain, but Mr. Higgins continued. You have originality —” The squirming boy sitting across from Mr. Higgins began to wish he had a little less originality. I was wondering if you’d be interested in representing our school in the Annual High School Boys’ Convention at the state capital.” Steve fairly shouted, “Would I? Every fellow in school wants to do that!” The morning passed in a fizz of excitement but at eleven-thirty Steve was faintly aware of his nagging conscience, and by lunchtime all the joy was gone. Finally, in an effort to give himself peace of mind, he surreptitiously slipped out to the parking lot behind the school, lifted the hood of Mr. Higgins’ car, and reconnected the wires. fmgc ninety-six Still there was that uneasy feeling, so much so that on the way home. Jack queried, “What’s the matter, kid? Gee, if I were you, I'd be on top of the world.” “Gosh! Jack, I feel like a heel; it’s kind of like robbing some guy who really deserved to go to the Convention. I’m going to tell Mr. Higgins about the car — he’s thinking I’m a good Joe, and I tried a fool trick like —” “Aw, don’t let it worry you. Everything’s okay n—” A car pulled up beside them. “Want a lift, boys?” Mr. Higgins called, pushing the door open. They slid in beside him, Jack, very honored, and Steve, cjttite chagrined. The latter swallowed hard. “Sir, there’s something I should tell —” “Nice car, sir,” Jack interrupted hastily, with a quick kick for his pal’s ankle. “Yes, it’s a pretty good buggy,” the principal agreed; and then added with a smile, “It’s temperamental, though. It pulls stunts on me sometimes; but with a little encouragement, it’s right in there pitching again—something like the boys in school. Sometimes they get into a little mischief, like, well, like Steve’s here playing around with the motor of my car —” Steve’s mouth dropped open and Jack gulped audibly. “But a little encouragement sets them on the right road again. By the way, Steve, about the Convention —” It was funny, but suddenly Steve was terribly excited about that Conven- tion. Mirror Upon the mirrored glass her fate did shine, And rouged lips and cheeks of beauty rare; Her inmost self was not so pure and fine As the image 'pon which she fixed her glare. Her azure eyes were clear and unafraid; Her tilted nose gave evidence of pride; And as she looked, she was quite undismayed — Her shallowness the silver glass did hide; Nor did it show the greenness of her soul, Nor yet the blackness of her trenchant tongue, And unreflected was the void that stole O’er me when I did hear her praises sung. Hence, mirrors do not delve beneath the skin. Do not reveal the self that lies within.

Laura Giachetti m omen It’s eight-thirty and here I am, not doing anything in particular, just sit- ting. The fireplace in my bedroom still has a few bright coals left: and I have a magazine in my hands—just to make it look good in case my mother walks in— but I’m not really reading. I’m think- ing. Suddenly, as the phone sends its sharp ring through my numbed brain, I reluctantly thrust my long legs into my fuzzy slippers and get up from the chaise longue. I force myself to say “Hello,” in what I think is a sultry voice. (My mom says I sound as if I have a cold.) A soft feminine voice greets me. “Hi, is this you, Peg?” Yes,” I answer. “Who’s this? Sally?” “Yeah. I really didn’t expect to find you in, this being Friday night; but I thought I’d try, anyhow!” “Oh,” I murmur inanely: but, abruptly thinking of my social reputation, I hastily add. “Honestly, Sal, it’s positively wicked the way I’ve been running around. I’ve been out so much lately that Mom absolutely put her foot down and said I had to stay in tonight. Isn't that positively gruesome? Could have had two dates, too!” “You don’t say?” says Sally, not sounding a bit convinced. (I’m not a very good liar.) Ah, — tell me, Peg,” she continued, whatever did happen to Johnny?” Johnny? Oh, — him. Well,” I gulp, trying to sound normal, “you know how it is! We just — well — ah — we just didn’t get along anymore. You under- stand, Sal.” “Yeah, 1 sure do. That’s too bad, Peg.” “Too bad!? I don’t care. He meant nothing to me,” I say. Oh. yeah, sure! Well, Peg, I just thought I’d give you a buzz and see how things were. I’ll probably sec you to tomorrow, huh?” Sure, Sal, that’ll be swell. I’ll see you then, O. K.?” “O. K. Bye.” “Bye.” The phone clicks. I think to myself, “The nosey old hag. I should have told her to mind her own business! Thinking that johnny still means some- thing to me. The way she talked, you’d think he ditched me, when anyone who knows anything at all, knows it’s just the opposite.” page one hundred I furiously kick my slippers across the room and flop down on to the bed, with my feet overlapping because I am lying sidewise. Still quite angry, I fool- ishly fish for a hankie to dry the big, salty tears that have annoyingly from no- where trickled down my cheeks. “So what,” 1 mutter to myself, “so what if Johnny does take out some other girl after going with me for six months? It’s none of my business. Oh. yeah? says my inner self. Why kid yourself. Peg? You’re hurt and you know it.” (). K. So I am, but I still say, so what? At this point my control breaks entirely, and the tears flow fast and thick. Just as I start to calm down, remembering how horrible my eyes look when l cry, the phone rings again. I gtdp and murmur, “Hello.” Hello, Peg?” a ruggedly masculine voic e says. “Speaking.” “Well, this is Bill. You know. Bill MacDonald.” Oh, — Bill!” I say. killing myself 10 ad casual. How are you. Bill?” “Swell, thanks. How are you?” Oh. just fine, thanks.” Well. say. Peg, I know you’re probably busy and 1 don’t want to keep you. but I was kind of hoping you weren’t busy tomorrow night. Are you?” Well — ah — no. Bill, no, it just so happens that I have tomorrow night free.” “Swell! Wotdd you like to go danc ing? I’d love to!” Wonderful! I’ll pick you up around eight-thirty. How’s that?” That’ll be fine. Bill. (). K.. Peggy. I’ll see you then. Bye.” “Bye, Bill. As I hang up the phone, my heart is banging against my ribs, hard. Bill isn’t just anyone: Bill is captain of the basketball team and the smoothest char- acter in school. I jump and run downstairs to tell my mother, knowing she won’t apprec iate my excitement (she never does) but. nevertheless, having to tell someone about the great joy that has come into my heretofore dull life. As 1 burst into the kitchen, practically killing my dog, and start muttering incoherent monosyllables to my dumbfounded mother, the doorbell rings. My mom, thinking I am ill. tells me to stay put and not to move. Before giving me time to object, she is gone, but returns in no time, look- ing quite excited. (You sec. although I haven’t said anything about Johnny, she knows.) “Well, guess what, clear? It’s Johnny! You go fix up while I invite him in.” For a moment I don’t breathe. Then, drawing myself up to my lofty height of five feet six inches, I resolutely say to my mother, No. Mom. No, don’t invite Johnny in. Tell him that I’m not at home tonight — nor any night — to him!” Ruth Hayes page one hundred one It is the night before the battle; every man of us is at his station; no one can sleep, as all are nervous, restless, waiting for the coining encounter. If only we could sleep! It’s this waiting that gets under a man’s skin. Tomorrow will mean everything to us and to our followers. If we win, it will bring hap- piness and glory; but to lose will mean lowly disgrace. So much rests on so few that it seems hardly fair; but the enemy is no better off, so the odds are even. There will be little sleep to-niglu. When morning comes, we shall be a rest- less and a weary lot of men. ... At last it's here!! We have fought many battles, but this one is the most important of our whole campaign. We have been drill- ing and training hard for a long time; and the three generals in our outfit have spent weeks getting us ready for this great finale. It is almost eleven hundred now and we are all crowding around the commanding oflicer, listening to the plans of attack. It is a familiar strategy, because we have been drilling through it a thousand times. Yes, it is a clever plan, and we all know from here in it will be up to us. The starling signal comes. We quickly rush out on the battlefield. The noise the villagers are making is tremendous. They arc just as excited as we. iThe battle starts with thunderous charges from both armies. We are on the losing end so far, but we shall soon show them. Charge after charge takes place. Each one is stronger and more furious than the other. “Keep up the fight, men. Drive them back. Dig in up front!! Get down low. men. Do you want to get your heads blown off? We’ve just about got them licked, men; don’t let down. Here come the reserves.
