Senior Class Will We, the class of 1968, believing that we have sound minds and bodies, do dispose of these unwanted items so that we might leave SD with free hearts and light suit- cases. Article I--To the juniors we leave our favorite game, known as GO TO THE HEAD OF THE CLASS. If successful in this game, you should gain some of the knowledge we hold. Article II--To the sophomores we leave two bottles of Excedrin. You will be having many of those Excedrin headaches when prom days arrive. Article HI--To the freshmen we leave one pamphlet to be closely examined by all. This pamphlet is entitled, How To Succeed in Business . From this resourceful book of knowledge anyone should learn all the tricks of all the trades. Article IV--We leave to the eighth graders luck, luck, and more luck. It made us what we are today. Article V--To the seventh grade we leave a thought that has constantly been with us throughout our school years. The thought is: ''Time passes--will you? Article VI--To Mrs. Matthews, our English teacher and class adviser, we leave one bottle of Loving Care. Perhaps she will need it after the gray hairs we probably have given her begin to show. Article VII--To Mr. Jull we leave the memories of our great P.O.D. discussions, We are sure he will remember them as being intriguing, informative, and very original. Article VII--To the rest of the faculty, we leave life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. These things will come after we have gone. Article IX--To Mr. Brotemarkle we leave our sincere wishes that his stay at South Dorchester will be as happy as our years at SD have been. Article X--To Mr. Bradshaw we leave a handbook for sending smoke sig nals. While you are burning the school trash, you can also make contact with other janitors. Article XI--To the library, we leave our favorite book, MY LIFE AS A BIRD by Hu BIRD Hughes. Article XII--To the cafeteria we leave many boxes of Halloween noise makers. Since we are leaving, man-made noise will need to be produced. Article XIII--To the home economics classes we leave one package of wool. If used wisely you should learn how to pull the wool over teachers' eyes. Article XIV-- To the bus drivers we leave, free of charge, the opportunity to take a six week course on Driver's Education. This will teach you that, When you drive, drive defensively, and watch out for the other guy. Article XV--To the healthroom we leave a silver plaque with these words embossed on it. We came to you for rest We came to you for sleep We stayed when work was undone Until it was time to eat! Article XVI--To the school building itself, we want to be remembered in this way: There was never a class like us before and there will never be one like us again! So from these things we now depart We leave SD with an open heart. Soules Kank! |

Senior Class History In September of nineteen hundred and sixty-two a wonderful thing happened to South Dorchester---forty-five seventh graders stepped through its doors for a higher ed- ucation, We were scared, but we were also industrious and eager to learn, A year went by, and we entered our second year of junior high school feeling a little less frightened and having a whole year's experience. We faced many more tasks, but we had a greater feeling of security. Elected as our representatives to the Stu- dent Council were Harry Phillips, Sheila Dawson, Tommy Powley, and Linda McGlaughlin. We were really beginning to be great leaders, At last our first year of senior high school came and with it the honor of being freshmen, We also had the responsibility of sponsoring our first dance. Our plans were as elaborate as those of a huge inaugural ball, but we narrowed them down a little. We learned that our delegates to the student government were Herbert Hughes and Rosemary Parks with Linda McGlaughlin as the treasurer. After another year, and having advanced a step higher, we became sophomores, This did not stop us from having fun because we got into more mischief than we ever had, But we anxiously awaited the final steps toward our goal--graduation. To head us in that direction were Keith Rippons and Herbert Hughes, our homeroom repre- sentatives, while Rosemary Parks held the office of secretary. As our final year came a little closer, we gained the acclaimed role of juniors. This meant sponsoring the Junior-Senior Prom and acquiring our class rings, two symbols of the hard work during our past years. But with the Prom came many headaches and problems, Mrs. Parks was our class adviser, and our officers were as follows: President-Rosemary Parks, Vice-President- Linda McGlaughlin, Secretary-Ella Jones, Treasurer-Herbert Hughes, Finally we are seniors. We realize the honor in this name and we try to set examples for the underclassmen, who one day will also be seniors. Our class has decreased to twenty-one students, but within our small class each is an individual and a leader. To help mold us into what we are is Mrs. Matthews, our homeroom teacher and our Class adviser during our last memorable year at S.D. Our leaders are Herbert Hughes holding the position of editor of the MARINER, and Danny Mills and Linda McGlaughlin acting as co-editors of the SO DO. Reigning over the Student Council as president is Jimmy Parks. Having reached our final destination, we are now seniors and hopefully waiting until we can obtain the one thing we have worked so diligently for in twelve years--our diplomas. As we look back over the years we recall many moments filled with hap- piness, anguish, and hard work. We hope that the graduating class of nineteen hun- dred and sixty-eight will often be remembered. As we leave, we carry many happy memories we had here and a feeling of pride that we had the opportunity of having had a role in the history of South Dorchester High. Ploae many Varhw
