[5] To the Members of the Graduating Class: Each one of you is looking forward to success in life. The attainment of true success is not possible if all emphasis is placed upon the acquisition of the material things of life. Such things are money, property, and personal be- longings. These have their place in life. In the seeking of these, the ma- terial things, the immaterial values of life must not be neglected. Character, loyalty, and friendship are not material things. They cannot be measured in terms of money. They are in the realm of the immaterial. They represent, however, permanent values of life. You may amass much of material values. Your life will be empty if you develop none of the immaterial. Material values are temporary. Like ships, they pass in the night. Im- material values are eternal. They live, indeed, forever! Vernon W. Evans, Superintendent of Schools. [6] To the Members of the Class of 1941 : You who are graduating in this class are in many respects more fortu- nate than your predecessors of the last ten years. There is a real demand in the fields of labor and business for skilled workers, so much of a demand that many employers and the Federal Government are offering courses in the train- ing of such skills. At a time like this, all of you can afford to be wise and considerate in your choice of employment. Seek first to understand yourself and your capabilities, and then seek to find the job that will give expression to these abilities, and that, as you mature, will lead to wider opportunities. In other words, try as individuals to be the kind of person, who merits his own self respect, because he attacks his problems with intelligence, and knows he has chosen a course in the pursuit of which he will grow in skill and service. John A. W. Pearce, Principal. [7] THE FOCUS Fourth row: MacGlashin, Wheeler, Connell, Carlisle, Starratt, Blake, Malloy, Atkins. Third row: Hen- nessy.

Jane McCullough [34] SALUTATORY On behalf of the class of 1941, I ex- tend to you, members of the School Com- mittee, to you, Mr. Evans, to Mr. Pearce, to teachers, parents, and friends, a cordial wel- come to our graduation exercises. This eve- ning, with its shadows, is symbolic of the ending of one phase of our life as a class; to- morrow is, indeed, a new day. Confident of the continued interest of those who have made our education thus far possible, we again cordially say you are welcome. LAND OF THE MAPLE LEAF Neighbors are those who are near; true neighbors are friends. Because they are near each other, and enjoy mutual benefits, socially and economically, they play an important role in the prosperity of communities, cities, and even nations. In times of sore need and strife, we turn to our neighbors. As wars and rumors of wars have raged on across the water, we have been ever thankful for peace between our own country and our good neighbor to the north. The name Canada suggests different things to us Americans. For some, it is the land of birth; for others, the homeland of relatives and friends. For all of us, it has possibilities of which we are increasingly aware. North of the border, rides the Royal Mountie, a clean-cut, alert personi- fication of law and order. As he reins his horse to a stop on a plateau in the Canadian Rockies, he gazes about him. Beautiful though it is, the scene be- fore him fades. Far to the east, in imagination, he sees the Gaspereau Valley, fragrant in spring with its pink canopies of apple blossoms, the heights of Quebec overlooking the St. Lawrence. As his thoughts sweep westward, he pictures the Great Lakes, the mist-laden grandeur of Niagara, that turns the dynamos and stirs the souls of men. In endless miles, lie the wheat prairies, yellow in the sun-light. The panorama before him commands his attention, — the snow-capped Rockies, and beautiful Lake Louise. He even glimpses glaciers, and the vast tundra reaching into the blue distance of the north pole, into a land more empty than northern Siberia. Canada! A huge country — a geographical colossus. Excluding Russia, it is twice the area of Europe. This, too, is America, free and sovereign, a loyal part of the British Em- pire. Most of the eleven million people inhabiting Canada live in a narrow strip of land that hugs its southern border. Canada is, in fact, a physical ex- tension of the United States, differing more from itself, east and west, than it does from the United States, north and south. [35] Jacques Carrier, discoverer of the St. Lawrence river, called it the river of Canada. ' ' As Egypt is the result of the Nile, so is Canada the result of the St. Lawrence. Up this mighty stream traveled the Indians, the French explorers, missionaries, and the British. Now the ships of the world plow its waters on their way to Montreal, the commercial capital of the Dominion and the largest inland seaport in the world. Canada ' s history, like. her scenic beauty, is colorful; inspiring are the tales of early struggle and achievement. Writing of Quebec, the military capital of Canada, the poet Jean Blewett says: Quebec, the grey old city on the hill Lies with a golden glory on her head, Dreaming throughout this hour, so fair, so still, Of other days and all her mighty dead. The white doves perch upon the cannons grim, The flowers bloom where once did run a ride Of crimson, when the moon rose pale and dim Above the battle field so ghastly wide. Methinks within her wakes a mighty glow Of pride, of tenderness — her stirring past — The strife, the valor, of the long ago Feels at her heartstrings, strong, and tall, and vast, She lies, touched with the sunset ' s golden grace, A wonderous softness on her grey old face. Quebec remembers Jacques Cartier, Samuel de Champlain, Montcalm and Wolfe, and many others whose names are written boldly across the pages of Canadian history. Remembered, also, is the year 1763, when New France gave place to British rule. One of the most striking things about Canada is that its population is one- third French. French-Canadians, however, are neither English nor French in their political sympathies but purely Canadian. They are vivacious but solid, lighthearted but religious, as their roadside shrines bear witness. Their snug, well-kept farms show that they are thrifty, although not accumulative. Their peasant life is now giving way to industrialism. As a people, French-Canadians have proved to be good farmers, magnificent pioneers, talented politicians, doc- tors, and lawyers. The English of Canada are wealthy as a class. They supply the executive as well as the workman to industry. They are conservative and contented; slow to anger and patient, they live calmly and securely. These Englishmen, how- ever, are not the English of the British Isles; they are Canadians, loyal alike to the Dominion and to the Empire. Canadians, as a whole, are vitally interested in the people of the United States, for both nations are largely of the same blood and live under the pro- tection of similar governments. Thousands of both groups have relatives [36] across the border. Canada has welcomed American investment, which has reached the billion dollar mark, and has encouraged and promoted a huge in- ternational trade. When Americans visit Canada, they are greeted cordially by men and women who, for the most part, speak the same language, think much the same thoughts, and have the same ideals of life, two peoples who enjoy a rich heritage from common ancestors. True, the history of Canadian-American relations has been, in the past, a story of quarrels; but a younger generation can, and does forget past grievances. In the first World War, Canadian-American cooperation was at its best, — American cruisers patrolled the Canadian Atlantic coast, and American sea- planes were based in Nova Scotia. Canadians were gratified when their great neighbor made common cause with them. Ottawa, the political capital of the Dominion, often called the Washing- ton of the North, is now busy with intense military activity, as Canada devotes herself to the Second World War. In different sections of Canada, in spite of the war, the maple leaves again are growing. When, at the end of the summer, they fall in a shower of red and gold, may they lie undisturbed along our undefended frontier, — the frontier that has become a world ' s wonder that only time can make more wonderful. In the words of Frank G. Carpenter, world traveler: Two empires, by the sea, Two peoples, great and free, One anthem raise. One race of ancient fame, One tongue, one faith we claim, One God, whose glorious name, We love and praise. Richard Howland. [37] VALEDICTORY AMERICA, THE MIGHTY WHOLE Relations that are in good repair do not require much talk : so said W. J. Cam- eron of the Ford Sunday Evening Hour in speaking of the Canadian-American rela- tions of 1939. Certainly more eloquent than mere words are the miles of unfortified fron- tier ranging from the fog-bound coast of the Grand Banks to the mists of Puget Sound. A single narrow strip of cleared forest, not unlike a rural fire lane, finds its way, surrounded by stately pines rising to the grandeur of the enclosing hills. Intersect- ing this at intervals are winding roads crowded with lazy automobiles whose occupants are drinking Beauty from the Emerald cup of Nature. On the edge of the clearing, is a staunch, white pole raising on high our waving flag, finely contrasted with the natural background of green. Opposite the clearing is another fluttering standard, a bright, clear red, with a Union Jack field. As we quietly pass the marker in the center of the lane, we suddenly realize, with nascent excitement, that we are entering the do- main of our amiable neighbor — Canada. The transition from country to coun- try is hardly noticeable. Similarities in thought, growth, and form of government have naturally aided friendly relations with our Northern neighbor. The thrilling epic of the struggle for Westward expansion in the United States can easily be converted in- to that of Canada ' s by changing merely the names of localities and dates. The forms of government in these two countries are similar, the Prime Minister in one corresponding to the President in the other. Canada, as well as the United States, is a melting pot, fusing, from all the peoples of the world, the Ameri- can man who thinks and acts in the American way. Our resources supplement each other. The vast tracts of soft wood tim- ber in Canada provide wood and paper pulp which bears the news to the break- fast tables of millions of Americans. In return, Canada receives most of her ferrous products and agricultural implements. Her factories are belching forth greater volumes of smoke, while the country as a whole is being developed at a tremendous rate. At present there are two main reasons for this industrial ex- pansion in our powerful Northern neighbor, the savage war and willing United States investors ' — of these two may the future see only American investments. In view of the present-day crises, however, when Democracy itself is at stake, it is both sane and prudent for the two most powerful democracies of the [38] Americas to retain and encourage coherent relations so that a unified front may be disclosed to a European-victorious totalitarian state. At present we are aid- ing in the betterment of our relations by active militant aid in the form of air- planes and munitions. Consistent with a united front is the enlargement of the Monroe Doctrine by Franklin D. Roosevelt to the effect that we will declare war on any nation, totalitarian or otherwise, invading Canadian soil. The Pan-American Union is taking great strides toward our unified front, although not so much in the case with Canada as with the Latin Americas. Because of the policy to remain loy- al to the British Empire, Canada is handicapped in entering into a closer re- lationship with the other American States. However, in the event of the war ' s engulfing this side of the Atlantic, the Pan-American Union will be the main- spring of the movement for the preservation of Democra cy. Here our South- ern neighbors will play an important role. We have a common heritage with Mexico and many of the Latin Ameri- can Republics. The Treaty of Paris in 1783 gaining for us complete inde- pendence, incited in the hearts of every Latin American a deep desire of free- dom and liberty. Out of this desire many new republics were born, so that at present only a small portion of Hispanic America is not politically free. In the past, our relations with these Latin Americas, especially Mexico and the Caribbeans, have been rather uncertain, for these countries interpreted the Monroe Doctrine as an invasion of their rights. Our rather patronizing Big Brother attitude, employing demonstrations of force, helped to confirm these interpretations. However, unity of understanding is gradually appearing; many advantages were found in connection with the Monroe Doctrine. By means of the doctrine itself and its various corollaries, United States financiers and economists were able to take over many customs houses of the Caribbeans and to operate them honestly and profitably. At first, this act seemed an in- fringement on a State ' s freedom, but since the Latin American, much more po- litically minded than interested in business, mistrusts his own kind in affairs of money, the United States customs house was wholeheartedly supported. In agreement with the Good Neighbor Policy of our State Department, the sponsoring of good will tours of the Latin American Republics by the Presi- dent and members of his cabinet has done much to better our relations with these countries. The Reciprocal Trade pacts of the present administration are also aiding in the alleviation of this former distrust. But by far the greatest unifying power at present is the Pan-American Union. At the call of any mem- ber country, a group of selected delegates from all the Americas meets at a specific time and place to discuss the question before the Union. Frequently this congress has been a very successful arbitration court. The Pan-American Union can be likened to the League of Nations and the World Court, only on a smaller scale. Eventually, it may evolve into an- other such body, which would be without a doubt much more successful than its pioneer predecessors. This Union has been able to prove to the entire civ- ilized world the value of friendship and neighborly relations. The Republics of North and South America have, through friendship, benefited in various phases. As a result of neighborly relations, these coun- [39] tries have lowered their existing tariffs, thus lowering the consumer ' s burden of tax and making for a more favorable exchange of goods among the repub- lics. Peace promotes prosperity, and good relations promote peace. With t his peace, by means of United States capital, the undeveloped resources of our southern neighbors are being expanded, thereby raising the standards of liv- ing throughout the Western Hemisphere. With fellowship comes unity; unity reveals a united front to totalitarian- ism and communism, the two menaces to democracy. It follows that there would be no more totalitarian underselling of foreign markets, through cartels, thus creating an economic condition parallel to that of Germany prior to the present war. No foreign power would dare threaten even the smallest Ameri- can state for fear of retaliation. Good habits spread as do bad ones. So may the Pan-American Union spread and embrace this hemisphere in its lesson of love and humanitarianism, for the more we learn, as individuals and nations, of the practice of living peacefully in mutual accord, the nearer we are to our goal — absolute Peace and Prosperity throughout the Western Hemisphere. No favored flag from one small mast unfurled, But one immense desire, One banner plumed with flameless fire, One hope, one mighty scheme Of winged freedom beating at earth ' s door, One goal of peace for half the world, One great, Andean dream! A single continental soul From pole to snowy pole, From shore to clasping shore, All, all, America, the mighty whole, One rock, one mountain-chain, one clay, One mortal dust, one common way! Now, on this our graduation night, strengthened in many ways through the efforts of our devoted parents, efficient school administrators, our diligent faculty and loyal friends, we, the class of 1941, leave our high school in which we have spent the four richest years of our lives. With mingled emotions of joy in the consummation of our course and reluctance to sever our associations, the graduating class of 1941 bids Saugus High School farewell. Adam Wesolowski. [40] HISTORY FRESHMAN YEAR Remember back four years, when on the fifth day of September, 1937, we shyly moved up the front walk of Saugus High for the first time. We were mighty proud and felt very important. How strange to find different classmates with us each period and how surprised to find ourselves no longer addressed as Jane and John but as Miss Smith and Brown. Soon our air of importance and self-conscious- ness wore off, and we settled down to business. Mr. Pinciss, our class adviser, helped us organize early. John Harrington was elected president; Leonard Small, vice-president; Eth- elyn Baker, secretary; and Jean MacDougall, treasurer. Early in the year, we realized that Saugus possessed an outstanding foot- ball team. Spurred on by our popular new coach, Charles Buzz Harvey, the team proved to be one of the best in the history of the school. Two of our class officers, Mike Harrington and Lenny Small, were very valuable to the team. Coach Harvey also began an intramural league of basketball among the underclasses, and Mike Harrington starred in this sport along with Tommy Nagle. Dick Howland was our class reporter for the Focus, and with his nose for news he proved to be the best ever, digging all the who ' s who and what ' s what from our class. The outstanding event of our freshman year was the first Annual Girls ' Club Dance. Tickets were sold only to members of the fairer sex; but the girls were not quite so timid as they pretended to be for the dance was a great success. Many of our class were present at the gala affair, and some of our girls even stole the senior girls ' swains. Many of our class joined the band, and their long hours of practice showed up to the best advantage during the football season. They received much ap- plause for their fine music and marching formations. In April, they gave a short concert over the radio and later presented the first band concert in the Town Hall; both were very successful. Who could forget the amusing incident of the flood in the Chemistry lab? For two or three days pupils of the lab as well as rooms 210 and 110 were forced to hold classes elsewhere because of the water. All good things must come to an end, and our freshman year was no ex- ception; so with fond memories and great expectations we passed on to become sophisticated sophomores. Virginia Pickering. [41] SOPHOMORE YEAR This year, 1938, we returned to school as sophis- ticated sophomores. We left the undignified fresh- men behind us and were pleasantly aware of the new position we had acquired as a result of our years of study. With our return, we welcomed four new teach- ers: Miss Sisco, Mr. Patterson, Mr. Burns, and Mr. Morris. September 16, the new Saugus Memorial Stadium at Stackpole ' s Field was dedicated. It was a very colorful affair. Many interesting speeches were giv- en by very prominent men. Among the attractions that day was the Punch and Judy show. The football games, held in the new stadium, certainly were exciting, giving us many thrills. The players from our class were George Fla- herty, James Wilson, and Robert Vatcher. One of the major events of the year was the never-to-be-forgotten hurri- cane. Most of us spent a wonderful day clearing up the debris that it left be- hind. For two nights after this, we felt like Abe Lincoln doing our home- work by candle light. Trees were uprooted, roofs were blown away, chimneys were knocked down, but to our disappointment all the damage done to the school was a broken window. After this, we settled down to work. On November 30, we elected class officers: Leonard Small, president; Chadwick Ramsdell, vice-president; Doris Leary, secretary; and Norma Kimball, treasurer. It did not take us long to find out that they were suited for their respective positions. This year also brought several new innovations to Saugus High. They were: Public Speaking Club, Boys ' Club and Honor Society. The Public Speaking Club was organized under the direction of Mr. Pat- terson, and the members put on interesting assemblies for the student body. This club became a great success. The Boys ' Club had Mr. Charles Harvey as adviser, and classmate Melcher Anderson became the first secretary of this club. The Honor Society made its first appearance under the direction of Miss Mo therwell. It was during this year that the death of our beloved teacher, Miss Dorothy Eyre, occurred. She was sadly missed by everyone. Another near-tragedy was the injury to Nicholas Morris, assistant football coach. We were very much relieved when he was out of danger. Throughout the year, many socials were held, tant was the Vic party held in the assembly hall, joyed entertainment and dancing. The new high school annual was published. It was open to all classes, instead of just seniors. It contained many stories and pictures of the under- classmen and these pictures were very amusing to some of our members. Now that school had ended for another year, we went happily on our way to dream of the time when we would return as juniors. One of the most impor- Those who attended en- Mathybel Somers. [42] JUNIOR YEAR Summer had come and as quickly departed as is its wont, but September found us ready and eager to return and renew acquaintances of the past two years. The first important thing we did as a class was to organize and elect officers. Our choice for the presidency was Chet All in favor say me Francis. The other offices were capably filled by Philip Rand, vice-president; Jessie Salsman, secretary; and Madeline Wood, treasurer. Mr. MacVicar was our class ad- viser. We welcomed Miss Elizabeth Mead, who came to teach sophomores and juniors to speak correctly. I wonder, did she succeed, or was that another insurmountable barrier? Those fellows with athletic propensities were given a chance to show what they could do on the gridiron under the excellent coaching of Buzz Harvey and Nick Morris. That we had faith in our team was proved when a special train of thir- teen cars was needed to convey the many Saugus fans to Gloucester to see the Sachems scalp the Fishermen. Remember the thrill we all felt when Bucherie ' s toe lifted the pigskin up into the air, and how it sailed between the crossbars to add Salem ' s scalp to our collection? The members of the team proved their prowess by becoming the North Shore Champions. As a reward for their hard work, the team enjoyed, shall I say, an educational trip to New York. Upon their return, they were ten- dered a banquet at the Lynn Armory. It is no wonder that we had such a successful football season with Winni- fred Nelson and Viola Demaso, both members of the class of 1941, aiding the rest of the cheerleaders to spur the team on to victory. Our class was well represented in the band. Due to the hard work of the committees in charge, our first social affair of the year was a great success. The Falcons and the Library Club were organized and the Student Council inaugurated its afternoon socials. Because of many other and varied activities, these socials were discontinued. In February, we started paying for our coveted class rings, and on March 20 we were proudly displaying our jewelry around town. You know, I pity the poor walls of room 107. Just think how many, many years they have had to listen to Four score and seven years ago — . Why, not even our class could get through the junior year without learning the Get- tysburg Address. The Focus took a new printed form, which saved Miss Marison and the commercial girls much typing, but brought the worry of obtaining advertise- ments. Our hearts were saddened when in the spring of the year, Nick Morris accepted an offer from Beverly to become head coach there. [431 Girls in gorgeous gowns and boys in faultless attire filled the assembly hall to overflowing on May 17, the night of the annual Junior Prom, to make this affair a great social success. Many underclassmen and alumni helped to make the Junior Reception to the seniors a financial and social success. Our combined outing with the freshman and sophomore classes at Nan- tasket wrote finis to a year filled with memorable occasions. Finally, June arrived in all her glory and our school days were over for another year, but we looked forward to coming back in the fall, refreshed and ready for anything. Mary Dow. SENIOR YEAR Our senior year! Now we were in our glory. We stood united on that proud day in September. A most capable president was elected in the per- son of Skip Moorehouse, with a cooperative staff con- sisting of Wilfred Sheldon, vice-president; Bertha War- ren, secretary; and Doris Leary, treasurer. New teachers appointed this year were Miss Eve- lyn Rodgers, English; Miss Frances Page, Latin; Mr. William Donovan, shop; Mr. Anthony Marandos, civ- ics; and Mr. Belden Bly, economics. We hope they have enjoyed being with us as much as we have enjoyed having them. The Girls ' Club was fortunate in having for its president, Gertrude Green. The Annual Tea, given by the senior girls to their mothers, was held on De- cember 7, at the Community House. Thanks to all who cooperated, it was a great success. The Annual Girls ' Club Dance proved very successful. Perhaps it is be- cause when the girls ask the boys, so many respond. Those boys will ad- mit though, there is always enough fun and frolic to insure a good time for everyone. The class of ' 41 has been in the sports spotlight. Our football season, although not as excellent as we ' d hoped, was, on the whole, a success. Those seniors who fought steadily and enthusiastically were: George Flaherty, co-cap- tain; Edward Wladkowski, Jack Warren, Phil Rand, Fred Fisher and Kenneth Parker. The girls on the Cheering Squad did much to aid the Buzz-Saws on to- ward victory. The seniors were represented by Martha Stowell, Winnie Nel- son, Viola Demaso, and Lettie Glynn. The Senior Play was A Howling Success. Buddy Harmon proved him- self a real thespian as Herbert. And who could ever forget Roland Worm- stead in that nightgown? Those who took part in the play were: Martha Stowell, Bertha Warren, Mildred Sadon, Delcie Clark, Doris Leary, Barbara Gould, George Mason, Roland Wormstead, Ernest Harmon, Francis Moorehouse, Frank Durgin, and Wilfred Sheldon. We also wish to thank Mr. Young for his excellent work in managing the sale of tickets. [44] For the first time in many years, Girls ' Intra-Mural Basketball was en- joyed by the students with Miss Geraldine Sullivan as volunteer coach. The senior colors were maroon and white. Our Professor Quiz Eleanor Willett was runner-up for the trophy awarded to the outstanding player. Let ' s hope that basketball will remain an official sport at Saugus High. We were all glad to see that Martha Stowell received her letter for being on the Cheering Squad. It was a good excuse, wasn ' t it, Jack? The Senior Dance was held November 22. It went off very well and everyone had a great deal of fun. Again, our Band under the direction of Mr. Hammond, won laurels at the State Music Festival in May. Hygiene Courses were held twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday after- noons. This course was excellent not only for the students who expect to take a Nurse ' s Course, but also for any homemaker. We hope, though, that when Miss Dow becomes a real homemaker, she won ' t put two little children in a closet, leave them there overnight, and then not even go to see about them when morning comes. True, in this case they were dolls, but it is the principle of the thing that counts. The Student Council has been under the successful supervision of Miss Towle and Mr. Gibbs. Through this organization, school handbooks were printed, particularly for the Freshmen; letter pins were adopted in colors of red and white. This year, the Student Council had charge of the stipulation of dates for all the student activities. We ' re proud to know that our Co-Captain Flaherty has been selected as one of the guards on the All-North-Shore Team. We hope their football suits are made to fit better than his George Washington outfit in the memorable as- sembly in February. New Hampshire ' s gain is Saugus High ' s loss in the person of Buzz Har- vey. We were all sorry to see him go. No doubt we shall read more about Nashua ' s new team, just as town residents read about our team, not long after Buzz had started his practice. At the same time, we welcome Toz, our new football coach. We know he will keep up the standards of past years, and we ' re sorry we won ' t be here to cheer him on. The whirlpool of activities kept us all on our tiptoes during the last few weeks. The outing will long be remembered because everyone had such a good time, and because it was our last informal gathering. The Senior Re- ception was a very colorful event, and was enjoyed by all. The Class of ' 41 was the first to combine their Banquet and Class Night. The turkey was de- licious, Mr. Evans and Skip Moorehouse sang a most talented duet, and all in all, it was a great success. We derived from four years of high school just as much as we put into them, and when on Graduation Night, we received our long-waited diplomas, it meant everything. We were now ready to enter upon life ' s pathway. Mindful of this, we chose as our motto, He conquers who believes he can. Gertrude Lynch. [45] PROPHECY We speak but in fun, and hope no harm is done. Open forums around every cracker barrel in the land are busy these days discussing national and in- ternational affairs. We intend to discuss local af- fairs .... as a necessary aid, we are going to con- sult our Crane- Your-Neck-Scope in order to paint you a vivid picture of a trip through the city of Sau- gus of some years hence. In our first glimpse, we behold ourselves visit- ing a million-dollar school building covering the west side of Baker Hill, with a huge stadium on top of the hill, and a breath-taking ski-slide on the east side of the hill. The bent figure obstructing our vision is Mr. Chadsey taking his daily wheel-chair slide. We walk up the stairs leading into the school and find ourselves drawn to the office. The principal, Melcher Anderson, A.B., M.A., and Ph.D., is dic- tating to his secretary, Mathybel Somers. Outside the office is a sign announc- ing the coming appearance of the famous novelist, Richard Howland, who will deliver a lecture to the seniors, on It Can Be June In January. Upstairs, we step into the Superintendent ' s office and chat for a few moments with Super- intendent of Schools John Kane, and his secretary, Ruth Smith. Then we walk down the corridors and see in turn Phyllis Craig, teacher of English; Dorothy Folan, French instructor; Barbara Gould, drama instructor; George Flaherty, athletic director; Gertrude Lynch, shorthand instructor; and Arthur Anderson, gym instructor. Arthur Anderson? Oh, yes, he ' s the one who started lifting 100-lb. weights and now can lift himself in the air with one arm and hold himself there for two minutes. They ' re using his picture instead of Atlas ' now. We ' d like to stay longer in such delightful surroundings, but the Crane- Your-Neck-Scope shows us striding toward the City Hall, and there we find our- selves in conversation with Mayor Lindsay Milk for the Kiddies Buswell. Our picture of him is quite hazy for the room is blue with cigar smoke pouring from his enormous black cigar. Nearby we see the Street Commissioner ' s office. That ' s George Mason at the desk; they say he ' s cleaning up. In the same room Howard Fairchild, Tax Collector, is matching coins with Donald Rawding, Chairman of the Board of Assessors. In a flash we ' re downstairs. There ' s Frank Dahlberg, Chief of Police, commonly called The Human Bloodhound. He recently solved the eternal question, Who threw the overalls in Mrs. Murphy ' s chowder? Right now, he ' s arguing his efficiency with Fire Chief, Elmer Salsman, who has just stamped out a lady finger on Centralia Avenue. The picture changes, and we are in the courtroom! Holding court today is His Honor, Judge Moorehouse, known in his youthful days as The Little [46] Skipper. The city ' s two foremost lawyers are here, I see. Mr. Rich, the D. A., is prosecuting Mr. Murphy on the charge of throwing the overalls in Mrs. Murphy ' s chowder, and Roland Wormstead is defending him in eloquent fashion. On hand is Lois Chase, court interpreter. During court recess, she autographs copies of her book, How to Learn French, Latin, and Sanskrit Dur- ing Your Lunch Hours. Our astonishing machine carries us now to the hospital. Having learned that Harold Dexter is head surgeon, we decide to stop in to see him, but his secretary, Dorothy Dominie, informs us that he and Howie Morrison, the auto- mobile dealer, have gone fishing. Familiar faces come to us one after another as we see some of our old classmates who, incidentally, make charming women in white — Patricia Shattuck, Ruth Gates, Esther Lundstrom, Geraldine Pingree, Delcie Clark, and Dorothy Gibbs, recently made Superintendent of Nurses. We can ' t linger, and so we move on. While leaving the hospital, we collide with a cluster of pussy willows, and not wishing to apologize to pussy willows, we part them to expose the beaming face of the town florist, Earnest Southard; the pussy willows are for the patients but the orchid he carries is for the hospital dietitian, Ethelyn Baker, who, Ernie relates, makes tasty swoose pie, a la mode. So we leave Ernie, shake the pussy willows from our clothing, and move on. Swaggering up the walk is that renowned physician, Dr. Chester Kildare Francis. He explains that he must hurry along to attend Fred Fisher, who was caught in the draft and is now recuperating from pneumonia. What ' s this? Oh, a flashing electric sign, Centralia Avenue, the Great White Way of Saugus. How changed our old hometown is! We are aghast at the array of skyscrapers on either side of the street. Down in the shopping district, we find Clyde Peach ' s grocery store; Gordon P. Denley ' s drugstore; Mary McNaughton ' s Home of the Beret, Turban, and Feathered Headgear ; Mary Davis ' Novel Nick-Nack Shop ; Carol Mason ' s Jem, Jewel, and Junk Shop ; Hair Do ' s for Debs and Dowagers, which is managed by Irene Brazis, Sally Doherty, and Velda Schmidt; and look, there ' s Hazel Perkins ' Flattering Foto Studio. Now for a look at Paul Waugh ' s Saugus Sentinel. The office is located in that huge skyscraper recently completed by that ambitious real-estate king, William McCarthy. McCarthy split the building contract — The Arthur Charles Company did the first forty-eight floors and the Walter Butler Company, the last forty-five floors. McCarthy ' s idea was that he needed a little variety. The air-conditioning in McCarthy ' s Mecca is the product of Ernest Steele ' s air-con- ditioning genius, so well displayed in his work of the previous year in the Sau- gus Subway. The first person we meet upon entering the offices of the Waugh Publish- ing Company is Viola Demaso, his private secretary. From her, we gather a little information about our old classmates; Betty Stickney is advertising mana- ger; Madeline Wood is manager of the File Department; Eleanor Parker is writing the column, Aunt Ellie Advises . . . and Eleanor Willett is the Society writer. Joseph Flash Veneziano is the toast of the whole staff for winning the award for the best newspaper picture of the year with his shot of the finish of the pigeon race sponsored by that great nature lover, Robert Bowker. Af- ter bidding goodbye to publisher Waugh, we take our departure. On our way [47] out, we have a chance to exchange a few words with Miss Mary Duffy, pub- licity director of the Mac Donald Bagpipers. Now we ' re on the ground floor of the McCarthy Skyscraper. Here ' s the office of Leonard Small who is an insurance man and notary public. Inside we find Lennie and his secretarial staff of Eleanor Buzas and Mary Dow drawing up insurance papers for the fleet of buses owned by the Ray Mansfield Trans- portation Company. There ' s a rival company across the street. Why, it ' s the Saugus Branch of the John Hancock Insurance Company. Busy at the books, files, and type- writers, we find our old classmates Ruth Gillam, Mary Gunn, Ethel Blundell, Mary Madden, Andrea Landry, and Constance Eaton. Strutting back and forth, chewing on a White Owl cigar, is Branch Manager Jack Warren, ex-light- heavy-weight boxing champion of New England. Out in the open again. Dodging countless cabs, we find the office of Esther Hakey, Interior Decorator; the Style de Paris Dress Shoppe, managed by Bertha Warren and Norma Sproul; and the Plain and Fancy Dancing School conducted by Harold MacDonald, James Donohue, Jean MacDougall, and Jane McCullough. On the second floor of the same building, we detect that popular dentist, Buddy Harmon, standing by an open window. He is quoting Shakespeare to his patient secretary, Lettie Glynn. Our next visit is to the banking offices of Chadwick Ramsdell where we see such familiar faces among the stenographic staff as Virginia Pickering, Mae Murphy, Lillian Schiorring, Doris Leary, and Catherine Connors. Coming out of the bank, we enter the office of The Butter, Egg, and Milk man. Can you guess who it is? You ' re right! Frank Durgin. In the of- fice at the moment is Dorothy Atkinson, local visiting nurse, who is trying to get Frank, who happens to be a member of the City Council, to increase his milk contributions to the needy families. Again on the move, we see Winnifred Nelson just as she is about to enter the Telephone Exchange. Hailing her, we learn that she is on her way to re- lieve her alternate as local supervisor, Virginia Oliver. She rushes on and so do we. Next, the library is the object of our curiosity. It is the gift of that millionaire philanthropist and aviation enthusiast, Diamond Frank Jeffrey. Like most of the other large buildings in Saugus, the library is the product of the genius of that renowned firm of architects — Wheeler, Wilson, and Wheeler. That ' s the Jimmie Wilson who takes a glider flight to Florida every winter for his health. The Librarian is Lois Belyea and her assistant is Sarah Draper, who has also edited a book on glamour. They ' re both busy as we enter, looking up trigonometry reference books for Esther Amero ' s kindergarten classes. Next, we make a short visit to the Leaman Hodge Welding firm, where we meet Irving Brass-Knuckles Wilson, local boxing promoter. With Wil- son, we drive to the Ballard Street Annex of the General Electric. Irving is delivering tickets for his Wednesday bouts to such G. E. executives as Robert Farrell, Bob Pendleton, Nicholas Nickole, James Scott, Joe Taatjes and Rocco De Pietro. It ' s only a skip and a jump to station WGUS which is owned by Philip Rand. Phil shows us a portion of his day ' s program. Listed we find: Travel Talks by Inez Woodbury; Health Tips by Ruth Lundstrom; Musical Ensemble [48] — members of which include Jessie Salsman, Mildred Sadon, Jean Sandilands, and Jeanne Wilcox; dance music by the Baker-Erickson band; and a dramatic presentation by the Saugus Amateur Players of Curse You, Jack Dalton! coached by Barbara Gould. As we leave the station, our curiosity is aroused by the signs of activity we see on the other side of Ballard Street. A trip across the street reveals the Sau- gus Navy Yard. Its great expansion, we learn, can be laid to the energetic direction of its ranking officer, Bartlett Britt, with the cooperation of such as- sistants as Stanley Tremaine, Bob Vatcher, and that renowned builder of sailing ships, Alton Benson. The reason for the furious energy in the yard is soon explained — they are being honored today by three nationally known figures — who are there to christen a new airplane carrier, the U. S. S. Concord — Admiral Albert Foss and First Lieutenant Arthur Stewart of the U. S. Navy and Briga- dier-General Albert de Steuben of the U. S. Army. We converse a moment or two with the Admiral and relive the day he stole home to win the final baseball game of the 1941 season. The Admiral is in a jovial frame of mind and he persuades us, though we are reluctant to leave such pleasant scenes, to accompany him on a fishing trip out of Saugus Harbor. Our last view of the Saugus Skyscrapers against the skyline is, indeed, touching, if somewhat fantastic. Lena Guerra, Martha Stowell, Arnold Young.

Our hard work was not in vain, for we en- joyed to the fullest our increased participation in school activities. Class elections were conducted early in the year by our adviser, Mr. Elmer Watson. Many students eagerly competed for the offices, and the following were finally selected: President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer . Thomas Atkins . Weldon Chase Lillian Shepherd Lawrence Courtis Of course, the greatest social event of the year was the Junior Prom, held on Valentine ' s Day. Appropriate decorations, fine music by Paul Dearborn ' s Orchestra, and the glamor of evening gowns and formal attire made the affair an occasion which will be long remembered by those who attended. In March, we received our class rings with a great deal of pride and pleasure. Another dance, sponsored by the Juniors, was held April 4, 1941. Though not as important as the Prom, it was highly successful. Highlights of this event were: Music by the Top Hatters, vocals by Helen Hume, tap dancing by Beatrice Couillard, and the inimitable boogie-woogie piano playing of Fred Hoffman. The last major event of the year was the Senior Reception.

The results of the election were as follows: President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Frank Cahill Russell Babcock Beverly March June Ide The first class meeting was held in the Assembly Hall, November 25, at which time it was decided to have the class dues fifty cents a year. A committee was chosen to select appropriate colors for the class, with Donald Grimes as chairman, and Grace Walkey, June Ide, Robert MacLean, and Helen Hume as- sisting. The Sophomore Social was held in the Assembly Hall, May 23, with Dick Williams ' Orchestra furnishing music for waltzers as well as jitterbugs. The social was a success both socially and financially and provided a full evening ' s enjoyment. Our class was ably represented in athletic activities this year with stu- dents participating in football, baseball, and the newly introduced hockey and track. The interest shown in the Glee Club, Library Club, Ski Club, Dramatic Club, and other organizations proved that our class is one that takes a lively in- terest in school activities and one that is eager to enter upon the increased ac- tivities of the coming year.

It is a government of the pupils, by the pupils, for the pupils within their proper sphere of action. In September, the following officers were elected: President ...... Leonard Small Vice-President ..... Eunice Pihl Secretary ..... Catherine DeFronzo Treasurer ...... James Wilson This year, the Council h as proved to be one of the outstanding organiza- tions in the school, having been able to accomplish all of the following: Printed and distributed handbooks for the incoming freshmen. Reserved student section in the stands for football games and supplied ushers for them. Printed season tickets and sold them at a reasonable price. Sold letter pins to the student body.

The close of school marks the end of the most successful and enterprising year for the band since its organization in 1936. At that time, it consisted of fewer than twenty members; today, it has grown to a group of over sixty cap- able musicians. The band has received wide acclaim for its performances on the football field — music, formations, and general color all add to the fall contests. This is due largely to the unique ideas and untiring efforts of director Donald Ham- mond as well as many long hours of practice, both in music and drilling, put in by band members. The appearance of attractive drum-majorettes — Evelyn Lundskog, Mary Reehill, June Ide, Mildred Green, and Ruth Hatch — also adds to the band ' s performance. At the close of the football season, the band began preparations for the Fourth Annual Concert in April. This affair proved to be a great success. Mr. Hammond and the band members received high praise from guest con- ductor, Paul Wiggin, of the New England Festival Band. In May, the band attended the Massachusetts Music Festival at Plym- outh. Again, it received favorable comment on its fine work. Throughout the year, the band has also played at various assemblies. Its last appearance was at the graduation exercises. Each year, the band gains more success and prestige; next year, great things are planned for this organization, and it is evident that the band will continue to grow.

The most instructive program of the year was a talk given by Mr. Doyle, head of the personnel department of the Lynn General Electric Company. He explained the imoortance of aptitude tests in discovering the type of work for which each individual is best fitted. Another interesting meeting was arranged bv Mr. Halev with the help of the Saugus Fire Department.

The main duty of the Marshal Squad is to preserve order among the stu- dents in the corridors and about the school grounds at all times. Students from the three upper classes are represented, and students from the senior class are elected by the other members to act as officers. At the first meeting, Mr. Young gave each member a post at which he was to station himself before and after school and also between classes. The marshals were also told what their duties were to be and in what way they could report any student who broke the school rules. At the beginning of the year, each member was given an armband, which was supplied by the school, to wear when he was on duty. Besides patrolling the corridors, the Marshal Squad has been called upon to show visitors through the school, to patrol the lunchroom, basements, and yard, to attend many social functions, to assist in many school assemblies, and they are sometimes called upon to assist in selling tickets for school functions. [83] Falcons ' Club Third row: Sheldon, Glinski, Wheatley, Wilson, Burton. Second row: Stewart, Dardzinski, Meader, Spence, Rodgers, O ' Connor. First row: Martin; McColley, Secretary; Woodsum, Vice-President; Mr. John Gifford, Adviser; Britt, President; Amero, Treasurer; Nadeau. The Falcons ' Club, under the guidance of Mr. Gifford, has continued its progress during the past year.

The election of officers resulted as follows: President ..... Vice-President .... Secretary . Treasurer ..... . Andrew Britt George Woodsum . Jack McColley James Amero On October 1, the club held its first meeting of the year. On that date a contest for hand-launched models was won by James Wilson. On January 25, a meet for endurance models was held. The club has also given a number of other exhibitions of its work, including a table display of models as an Open House feature. In April, the club presented a motion picture, showing the production of modern fighting planes. This program proved to be a success and was en- thusiastically greeted by the students. The cooperation of club members and the increased interest of others in the work of the Falcons point to even greater growth in the future. [84] Senior Play Cast Back row: Clark, Moorehouse, Sheldon, Mason, Durgin, Sadon. Miss Alice Sisco, Coach; Harmon, Stowell, Warren. Front row: Gould, Leary, Wormstead ; A HOWLING SUCCESS Herbert Pennywaite has tried in vain to select his life work. His father, who is running for Senator, has definitely condemned his latest ideas of a burg- lar alarm and a dog-pound. His Aunt Hep arrives and manages to encourage his hopes slightly. Crusty, a friend of Herbert, has just brought in two bloodhounds, so Her- bert decides a good crime would be perfect. He suspects Marta, their maid, and Tony, their gardener, of being crooks. Joey Carter comes home from military school to add his intelligent service to the mystery. Prunella, Herbert ' s sister, has Shen Marr, a college friend from the South, visiting for a while. Shen is proud of her conquests and plans to make Her- bert No. 49 and Joey No. 50. Joey, Herbert, and Crusty have disappeared, which causes Captain Shook to arrest Marta for kidnapping. She proves that her only idea was to destroy incriminating evidence Mr. Pennywaite had against her father. So the ma- terial is destroyed and Herbert reappears with Crusty and makes his momen- tous decision finally to become a lawyer. We shall long remember Roland Wormstead ' s famous nightgown, Skip Moorehouse ' s hilarious ad-libbing, as well as his fight scene with George Ma- son, and the brother and sister battles waged by Bud Harmon and Delcie Clark. [85] . iuun 4 X £$wi? m ! Football Folio SAUGUS AT CHELSEA The initial encounter of the ' 40 sea- son in the Chelsea Stadium found the Sachems playing their first night game in the history of the school, with Eddie Shipul- ski and Co-Captain Mike Harrington steal- ing the show. The score was tied in the closing minutes of the game, but the Sach- ems, playing for victory, gambled on a pass w hich was intercepted by Chelsea and con- verted into the margin of victory. Chelsea 13; Saugus 7. PAWTUCKET AT SAUGUS Next the Sachems played host to Paw- tucket, R. I., in our lighted wigwam. This game, played before some 6,000, was the most colorful tilt of the season. Bewildered by a devastating attack after their first period touchdown, the visitors were out- played for the remainder of the encounter. Warriors Eddie Wladkowski, Shipulski, and Harrington each tallied, and Connell made two conversions. Saugus 20; Pawtucket 7. MELROSE AT SAUGUS Inspired by this victory, the Sachems next met Melrose, but were unable to manage more than a tie score, as they had done the year before. The visitors gained an early lead. Harrington made the first Sachem tally only to have Melrose regain the lead on an intercepted pass. With the Melrose outfit in the lead again, Porter scored on a line plunge for the Sachems, and, as the fans sat breathless, Connell converted the 13th point to tie the game. Saugus 13; Melrose 13. SAUGUS AT AMESBURY The next engagement, at the Amesbury Stadium, resulted in a discourag- ing defeat at the hands of our hosts. Bewildered by the tricky defensive forma- tions of the opposition, the Sachems were powerless to make any trips into touchdown territory. Early in the game, a cut back gained 76 yards and a touchdown for Amesbury. Our team threatened several times but failed to score, and the final whistle found the ball on the Amesbury seven-yard stripe. Amesbury 6; Saugus 0. WOBURN AT SAUGUS Playing at our stadium, Woburn was off to a good start when a 90-yard run gave them the first score. Shipulski ' s pitching arm was in good shape, and the Sachems gained plenty of yardage, but they had difficulty in scoring. Late in the fourth period, a pass barrage brought our team to the Woburn 2, and Shipulski plunged over for the score. Connell ' s conversion tied the game. Saugus 7; Woburn 7. [89] SAUGUS AT WAKEFIELD Blankets were in vogue when Saugus tackled Wakefield the following Saturday. The game was thrilling to the point of roughness and was featured by defensive brilliance. Wakefield did manage to score, but our club was un- able to crack the sturdy Wakefield line and our passes were not clicking. Later it was announced that Wakefield will be our new Thanksgiving Day rival. Wakefield 7; Saugus 0. REVERE AT SAUGUS Revere, our next contestant, proved an easy foe for the Sachems in the final night contest of the season. Our twin triple-threats, Shipulski and Har- rington, held the attention of the 6,000 spectators, with the former executing excellent passes, and the latter receiving. Harrington scored thrice, and Hack Wilson made the other tally on a pass from Shipulski which covered 63 yards. In the absence of Connell who was injured, Wilson kicked the four points. The defensive alertness of the whole line, inspired by Co-captain Flaherty, rendered the Revere offense helpless. Saugus 28; Revere 0. SWAMPSCOTT AT SAUGUS With the season nearing its end, the Sachems next entertained an old rival, Swampscott. In the opening quarter Saugus scored 14 points before Swampscott even gained possession of the ball for one huddle. In the second half, a long pass from Shipulski to Wilson resulted in a third tally for the high- riding Sachems. Swampscott came within scoring position only once during the whole encounter, although at times their light backs looked good in the execution of their pleasing and tricky attack. Saugus 20; Swampscott 0. SAUGUS AT MARBLEHEAD All eyes were focused on the Sachems when they opened up a devastating offensive attack to defeat the favored Marblehead Magicians. Jack Warren, guard, deserves credit for his part in breaking up the Magicians ' offense. The Sachems outplayed the enemy in every department. In the third quarter the Sachems scored a precious three points on a field goal by Bob Connell with Harrington holding. With seconds to play, Harrington scored a touchdown on a short line buck to give us a decisive margin of victory over this highly rated foe. Saugus 9; Marblehead 0. DANVERS AT SAUGUS The Sachems concluded their ' 40 season on a snow-covered gridiron, but despite the snow and bitter cold some 5,000 fans braved conditions to watch the final Turkey Day tilt with Danvers. Saugus scored early with Harrington carrying from the enemy nine. Ed Shipulski was hurt slightly but in his ab- sence, Skip Moorehouse and Fred Fisher teamed with Harrington to keep Danvers on the defensive. The final score of the season was on a Harrington to Moorehouse pass. Saugus 13; Danvers 0. 191] Thus closed our last season under Coach Buzz Harvey. Words are futile to express our disappointment at his departure and our wishes for his future success. We join with the entire town in expressing a fond farewell to Buzz Harvey, and in greeting his successor, Henry Toczylowski, who, with as- sistant Coach Anthony Marandos, will direct the football destinies of Saugus.

Front row: Isaacs, Moorehouse, Harrington, Flaherty, Kane, Stewart, Foss, Nadeau, Huff. After an opening day victory over Rockport by the score of 10-4, our base- ball team met a few losses before nosing out Marblehead, 6-5, in a thrilling 14- inning struggle. Thus, the 1941 team is following the same pattern as last year ' s nine, which started slowly, but went on to a very successful season after Coach Bernie Friberg had had the opportunity to work on early season weaknesses. Our club this year is a combination of veteran and rookie material. The find of the season is Fred Fisher, second sacker, who fits very nicely into an infield of Len Small at first, John Harrington at shortstop, and Arthur Stew- art at third. Behind the plate is Bob Connell, and alternating on the mound are Ed Shipulski and John Kane, with Bob Isaacs and Walter Butler in reserve. The outfield is composed of Robert Nadeau, Bert Foss, and George Flaherty. Out- standing prospects to win starting positions are infielders Harold Huff, Skip Moorehouse, and Chad Ramsdell, and outfielder Ted Jaquith.

Girls ' intra-mural basketball was added to the Sachems ' 1941 sports pro- gram and was so successful that it will be continued next year. Miss Geraldine Sullivan obligingly donated her services to coach the hoop-maidens whose en- thusiasm matched her own. These girls were grouped into four teams, repre- senting each of the classes. A regular schedule was played among the four teams, with each team meeting the other three. The best players were se- lected and grouped into two teams, the Army and the Navy, and they battled each other in a colorful windup of a very successful season. The three highest scorers for the season were: Eleanor Willett (51), Jean Robinson (45), and Jane McCullough (34). Jean Robinson was presented an engraved gold cup by the SACHEM as the outstanding player of the four classes.

Front row: Hughey, Cameron, Agersea, Elsmore. Grimes, Belonga, Goss, Koschei. Track assumed the role of a major sport in our athletic program this year under the direction of a new faculty member, Belden Bly. The track situation was not at first a coach ' s dream with football and then baseball holding the spring limelight. Later, however, Coach Bly had a better opportunity to work with a promising though inexperienced group of track candidates in such events as the shot-put, the 100, 220, and 440 yard runs, and the relay. Working out in the shot-put were Art Andersen, Leonard Flaherty, Ar- thur Statuto, and Donald Grimes; in the 100 and 220 were John Harrington, Edward Koschei, Welcome Goss, and Thomas Hennessey; in the 440 were Ben Belonga, Daniel Cameron, James Elsmore, Clifford Agersea, John Stuart, George Mason and Robert Hughey; and in the relay, those football speedsters, Shipulski, Goss, Harrington, and Koschei. The first meet of the year against the North Shore Champions, Revere, re- sulted in a 37-17 victory for our opposition. Our team gained great consola- tion in defeat by winning the relay event. With the experience gained this season, our track team has fine prospects for next year for we lose by graduation only Art Andersen and George Mason.

Hockey made its debut as an official sport at Saugus High School this year under the faculty direction of William Donovan and Tony Marandos. The equipment was far from elaborate, and the schedule was by necessity a makeshift one, for there had been no pre-season plans for such a team. The cooperation of the faculty directors and the enthusiasm and ability of the play- ers, however, more than atoned for these drawbacks and made possible our successful entrance into hockey competition.

Front row: Moberg - , Home; Mr. John Leahy, Adviser ; Wesolowski. Wormstead. The golf team of Saugus High School has started off its 1941 season by winning two out of three of its matches. Earlier in the season the following officers were chosen: President, William Home; vice-president, Adam Wesolowski; secretary-treasurer, Roland Worm- stead. Mr. Leahy has given the boys much of his leisure time in preparing and arranging matches for them, since two years ago when he volunteered to act as their adviser. This year Mr. Pearce has arranged financial backing for the team to cover the expenses of transportation. The six schools competing in the Middlesex Valley Golfing League have organized teams to play a twelve-game schedule. The idea of these matches is to bring about closer and friendlier relations among the schools. The team winning top honors is to become the proud possessor of a trophy. The games and results through May 12 are as follows: 1. Wakefield at Sagamore Result: Wakefield 5-4 2. Maiden at Colonial Result: Saugus 9-0 3. Melrose at Colonial Result: Saugus 5-4 4.

It was the first time in eleven days that he was completely re- laxed and comfortable, for he had been under the grueling strain of U-boat muster, standing for hours at the periscope without relief. Many times he had sighted enemy ships, some of which had escaped, and others of which he had sent to the bottom with gaping holes in their hulls. Vaughn was reading a letter which had been for- warded to the base. It was from his younger brother, Albrecht, who had gone to school in England four- teen years before, and who, at the outbreak of the war, in May, 1940, had been in the English navy for nine years. The letter in brief was as follows: Sorry our navies are fighting against each other, rather than for each other. This situation puts us in an awkward position, but since we are both naval officers, our action must be strictly official and for the good of our re- spective governments. Let us not allow our personal feelings and relationship to interfere with our duties as highly honored men. You are captain of a German submarine, and I am second lieutenant aboard H. M. S. Rodney, so let us act accordingly. Hoping that we do not meet until after an armistice is declared, I remain Your loving brother, Albrecht. He had hardly finished reading when he received his summons to report for orders. The commander of the Kiel base informed him that a lone British ship had been sighted in the Mediterranean — 48° 30 ' north of Africa. His orders were to destroy and sink that ship and then proceed to the North Sea. He immediately summoned his men and headed for the Mediterranean, full speed ahead. At the first signs of dawn, Captain Vaughn was standing rather drowsily with his fists on the periscope handles and his eyes scrutinizing the surface. Suddenly he stiffened and his eyes grew keen. A grey, sleek hull sailed into the view of the periscope. Vaughn ' s eyes narrowed as he pressed against the rubber eye socket for a glimpse of the ensign. His knuckles tightened on the periscope handles as he saw the British Union Jack flapping in the crisp air. His first thought was of the letter in his pocket, but he remembered his brother ' s words and his own duty. [100] Verflucht! he shouted. All hands to battle stations. British battle- ship in sight! The men moved quickly and efficiently to their places. All were tense and eager. Bug Torpedorshen bereit halten! Vaughn yelled the order. Stand by the bow torpedo tubes! The men shifted nervously as they waited for a report of the craft ' s posi- tion. It came in the stolid voice of the U-boat ' s master. Target speed two four. Range three nine double-o. Target course eight four. Vaughn stood rigid and calm, for, after eighteen months of this, a man had no feelings. Target speed two four. Range two seven double-o. Target course seven-six. And then from the master, Stand by to fire tube one! The captain checked once more on the position, took a long look at the enemy ship, and then shouted, Fire tube one! There was a humming and a hiss of air and the U-boat shook and rocked. As the men tried to steady themselves, they heard the skipper order, Fire tube two! Again the boat rocked and lurched. The crew steadied themselves, and stared fixedly at the Captain, awaiting further orders to fire. Vaughn watched the white streaks travel across the water, and then the stem of that magnificent ship splintered and disappeared. The first torpedo had taken the stern of the ship out. The second one hit more toward the center — a direct hit. The battleship took on water heavily, listed badly to the right, and then began to settle. The stern went under, and the prow of the boat rose in the air, then slid under the bleak Mediterranean waters. So suddenly had the British ship been attacked that not a lifeboat had been lowered, and so quickly did it sink that not one man had escaped. When the prow rose before going under for the last time, it seemed to hover for a fraction of a second, during which time Vaughn caught a glimpse of the name — H. M. S. Rodney. He fingered the letter in his pocket, and then gave the order to head for the North Sea where they were to look for and break up British convoys. Arthur Wheeler, ' 41. THE STORM The waves broke wildly on the shore, The wind howled loudly ' round the door, Rudely the boats dashed on the rocks, And, from the north, the great white flocks Fled swiftly on their way. The clouds grew black as darkest night; Then flashed a sudden streak of light, Which, followed by the thunder ' s sound, Sent cattle bellowing, homeward bound, Amid the rush of rain. Marion Weaver, ' 42. [ 101 1 THE OLD SWIMMING HOLE I remember it as a deep, wide pool of cold water, which runs down from a near by moun- tain side. At one end is a small waterfall, which drops about two feet and flows into a stream under a fallen log. The pool is bordered by old, moss-covered oaks and drooping willows. Tall grass grows around the edge, except for a few spots where sandy, rock-spotted ground shows. A crudely constructed springboard hangs over the water, jutting out from the base of a huge oak tree. The pool itself is deep and cool, the bot- tom covered with sand, pebbles, and smooth rocks. Although the pool is practically motionless, water is run- ning through it all the time. The trees around it have initials and hearts carved in them. To make the picture complete, we must not overlook a faded sign which barely protrudes above the grass — a sign ignored and out of place in such a beautiful and peaceful spot — No Swimming Allowed.

[ 102] THE GALLANT KNIGHT And then great peals of thunder Shook the valley, shook it hard, And then the dashing rain came down Into the dim courtyard. A gallant, noble, mud-stained horse, With head held proud and high, Pranced through the gate with graceful stride, A brave knight walked close by. Into the bright lit banquet hall, With clashing heavy steel, This dashing, cocky, knight of old, His face would not reveal. The king was seated on a throne, As ancient bards do claim, Prepared to dub this noble knight, Add Sir on to his name. The gallant knight stood by the king, And mumbled out a word, But he still had his helmet on, And not one word was heard. Take off that blasted helmet, The robust, fat king said. Who ever heard of being dubbed, With a helmet on your head! Two squires jumped to attention, And then jumped to the knight. They worked and worked to no avail, The helmet stayed on tight. Till finally one brave squire spoke, With kingliness and pride, Dear lords, we cannot get him out, He ' s rusted up inside. In a gray old crumbling castle, Where ' tis very hard to get, This brave old knight for all I know, Alone, is waiting yet. Moral — Don ' t get caught in the rain with your armor on. James Morse, ' 43. WEIGHT OF TIME The heavy weight of years, we ' re told, Slows down the pace of people old; And yet, I hope, ere life is done To carry round about a ton. Rose Lager, ' 42. [103] FOG Fog is clos- ing in on the Grand Banks, a — dense oppres- sive fog, weigh- ing on the mind and body alike. Everywhere is black emptiness except for very near objects which appear dimly through the haze. A large schooner is ly- ing at anchor; the crew is be- low, mugging up in the galley. All the salt is wet, and they will weigh anchor in the early morning. On deck, the skipper is on watch, tolling the dismal fog bell at reg- ular intervals. From the south and east come the voices of the fleet; the sharp clang of the mackerel seiner, the mournful wail of the steam trawler, and the frothing roar of the Virgin. Suddenly, from the West, very close at hand, is heard the eerie, piercing shriek of a liner ' s foghorn. Passing south of the steamer lanes, she is cutting across the Banks, sounding her blast only infrequently, heed- less of the fleet surrounding her. Minutes pass; the skipper feels a premonition of danger, when a vague shape looms through the mist. It takes form, the shape of a steamer ' s bow, and towers above the puny schooner. The cracking and splintering of wood. The cries of a few drowning men. That is all. The passengers, dining and dancing in luxury, notice only an unusual vibration of the motors, and probably no one has seen the vessel. The liner rushes on into oblivion, unconscious of the tragedy it has wrought. Seven more men have gone down to the sea in ships. Paul Brooks, ' 42. FAITH I watch you now, O mighty sea; Your cold dark waves break heavily Against a rocky shore. I watched you once, a friendly sea, ' Gainst sandy beach break merrily, But that I see no more. A million men are there who say A calmer sea is far away, But I do not agree. The sun will shine across the bay, Your milder waves, I know, will play A rhapsody for me. Richard Howl and, ' 41. [104] THE FAITHFUL THREE Once in the plain of Dura by an edict of the king, A tall and mighty image stood, a wondrous golden thing; And whosoever was passing by, when any music played, Must fall to earth and worship there this thing the king had made. But three within that nation ignored the king ' s decree, And when the music sounded forth, refused to bend their knee, Three captive Hebrew children, who dared to stand alone, Defying all the power of mighty Babylon. Know ye, O King, they said to him, The God we serve can save; He will deliver us we know from out a fiery grave, But still, if not, we will not serve thy gods nor yet this thing Which thou hast made. And so these three defied the mighty king. Then was the king enraged; these three into the flames were cast, And seven times hotter was the fire, so dreadful was the blast It slew the men who threw the youths into the raging flame, And yet the three were faithful still unto their great God ' s name. Then did the King of Babylon approach the furnace door, Were not three men cast into this and yet I now see four? And they are loose and one I see is like eternal God. The king in awe and wonder gazed as by that fire he stood. He called unto these three and they did answer to his word, And all his men who stood around did tremble when they heard; And then they saw the youths come forth unharmed by heat or flame, And that great King of Babylon gave glory to God ' s name. He did acknowledge God ' s great power who could his servants free, And all of Babylon was told about the faithful three; So down the ages to all men still does their witness ring, And God is glorified because these youths defied the king! June Walker, ' 41. SUNBEAMS AND MOONBEAMS While I ' m soundly sleeping Early in the morn, Through my window creeping, Sun rays come, new-born. They gently say, Good morning ; Then with golden light, Peeping through my curtain, They chase away the night. While I ' m soundly sleeping Early in the eve, Through my window creeping, Moonbeams slowly weave. They gently say, Good evening ; Then with silver light, Peeping through my curtain, They softly sigh, Good night. Dorothy Gibbs, ' 41. [105] THE LADY AND THE HAT There once was a lady, With a passion for hats Trimmed with most anything, From peacocks to cats. One day she went walking In bonnet of blue, And as she stood talking, The sun slipped from view. The dark clouds soon gathered, The thunder, it rolled, The rain spattered down, In buckets untold. The leaves and the flowers Which perched on her head Lost all their color. Oh, dear me! she said. The red of the flowers Ran down on her face, Until, like a school girl, She hid in disgrace. The green of their leaves, It spotted her locks, And dripped down her back In wet muddy drops. Now the lady goes walking, Her mind quite at ease. No hat does she wear; Her curls blow in the breeze. Phyllis Hooper, ' 42. THREE MINUTES TO GO He sits tensely in his chair, watching the clock feverishly. In three min- utes it will all be over, and his anguish will at last be ended. How he longs for that moment when he will be set free. The hands of the clock move slowly, more slowly than he has ever dreamed they could. He twists and turns restlessly, trying to make himself comfortable. Alas, the chair was not made for the comfort of its occupants. One minute remains. He braces himself, for he must not be caught un- awares. The small hand is moving. It reaches twelve. There is the bell. Recess at last! Rita Burns, ' 42. [106] FISHERMAN ' S LUCK The fisherman ped- aled long and hard to reach his secret fishing spot, but when he looked at the cool, clear water, shady trees, and gentle, sloping, grassy banks, he felt more than rewarded. The day was very warm, and the shade was cool. Across the field butterflies fluttered from flower to flower in the golden sunshine. The fish- erman ' s mind seemed to keep tune to the buzzing of the bees and the lazy drone of insects. Before long he began to doze. Presently, there was a nib- ble at the line. He stirred. It seemed a pity to exert himself on such a nice day. The fish was really biting now. Oh well, let him bite. I ' ll come back and catch him some other time, he sighed. Richard Lynch, ' 43. THE LOST MELODY Mike, the old janitor of St. Mary ' s Cathedral, sat alone in the balcony, listening to the organist practice for the evening service. He had never in his life attended a real concert, and his chief joy was the simple hymns played by the organist. But this afternoon Mike wasn ' t alone. He became aware of this when he heard a muffled sneeze. He glanced about, but could not see anyone. Then the organist began to play, and Mike was diverted from his search. The or- ganist had been idly running his fingers over the keys, leaning comfortably back on the bench, when he struck a chord, a single chord of such startling beauty and depth that he sat up, amazed. He tried it again, and lifted his head in surprise, for someone was singing the melody along with him. Mike stared, bewildered, and then, as he found a small, ragged urchin kneeling at the balcony railing, he growled, So there ye be! I thought I heared someone, an ' it ' s my duty to put ye out. Now, what do you mean, botherin ' the organist like that? Git! The boy stifled a cry and fled, followed by the janitor. The organist jumped to his feet at the sound of Mike ' s angry voice. He called, but the boy had gone. Slowly, he sank down on the bench. A song had been born only to be lost again. Barbara Nicoll, ' 43.

Although small in number compared with classes today, we have never been lacking in enthusiasm or loyalty to Saugus High School. Twenty-three seniors and two post-graduates received diplomas in 1904. Of that number, twenty are still alive. At our reunion last year, twelve of the graduates were present and several others sent letters of greeting from distant parts of the country. Vestigia Nulla Retrorsum was our class motto, and as you go forward in this year of 1941, may you, too, always aim to take no steps backward. ALUMNI REPORT The Tontoquonian of 1941 dedicates these pages to the most recent alumni of Saugus High School, the members of the Class of 1940. It has been the aim of the Alumni Editor, Miss Catherine De Fronzo, to give an accurate report of the present activity of each member of last year ' s class. Every effort has been made to check on our information, but errors may have crept in. If such is the case, the staff expresses its regrets in advance.

BUFFUM STREETS LYNN, MASS. To be truly interesting a yearbook must have both typographic and pic- torial appeal. It must be carefully planned, carefully printed, carefully bound. It is the permanent record of all that goes to make up school life, right to the very day of graduation. Good yearbooks result only from spe- cialization; from constant study of what constitutes good yearbook design; from the intelligent use of the aggregate knowledge and experience of artists, compositors, pressmen. We have all of these things in our organ- ization — ready to serve you as we are now serving a steadily increasing group of other schools and colleges. Your in- quiries are invited.
