The girls of our class have designed for him this dainty apron, so that he will be able to continue his services at the hops next year. Article XIV. Dick Dew likes to debate any point. To his successor, Robert Hash, Dick leaves this set of Parliamen- tary Rules. , Article XV. Billy O'Connell cannot croon like Frank Sina- tra, but the bobby soyers swoon as he makes his way non- chalantly down the corridors. To Billy we leave a bottle of smelling salts to revive the students who fall in his path. Article XVI. Richard Bowers regularly goes trapping each season. We leave to him this large size bottle of cough medicine since he seldom captures anything, except possibly a cold. -M ' , WM- Hi If 4 I - ' I my .. I pg, N Xl in in Article XVII. Joe Tierney is of an adventurous nature and Q frequently goes on more or less unauthorized tours of 2 inspection. In order that he himself may avoid investi- -i E gation, he will need this long periscope to see danger -l-E h' . . -- approac ing H ,nwsi Article XVIII. Barbara Benson seldom misses a shot.

But with the aid of our gift he ought to win by a nose. Put on the roller skates, Tommy, and beat them all. Article XXIII. When Bobby Baker is around, everybody always begins to feel cheerful. We leave him this box of candy just because he's such a good sport. Article XXIV. Last year Dorothy Gelinas received a set of science books which she now, with considerable reluctance, leaves to Dick Nithington. In addition, she presents Dick with an armchair, so that he may study in real comfort and refresh his flagging energies with an occasional nap. Article XXV. Fellow students, didn't you all admire those new-look red suspenders that Jackie fAdolphe Menjoul Carroll wore last winter? But they just weren't quite bright enough. We saw this pair the other day and thought that they would be a lively addition to his wardrobe. v 9 sg. .34 is-id my ff f? 59' 4 f Z1g'w I Article XXVI.

fJf0g1 OO :Sd gffbf' 1.9 Q3 JL37c'fiC..2 Qing We, the Class of lQ48 of Wayland High School, being as balanced in mind as can be expected after so many years of untiring study, and as sound in body as the Physical Education Department and Lunch Room Force have been able to make us, on this day of June, one thousand nine hundred and forty-eight, do hereby revoke all wills, codicils or testamentary instruments made by us and do make the following bequests. Article I. As a token of our appreciation to the' faculty .. ,-. ' ,. - 5-' ' RSX members, we leave this bundle of report cards, tied with :1 , C w sweet-scented ribbon. We know that they, our teachers, will 7, +0 cherish these cards as the years roll on and think of us 'Q with fondness, because no class in the future will be able Nw-'pgib to attain such marks. N?gia5g.E Article II. Students may come and students may go, but Maynard Holman never leaves on the regular bus. To him we V give this time card to be punched as he goes from room to Z room between 2:06 and 5:50 every day. A COCWTUAT' Article III. To George Cobb, Doctor of Letters, we leave jfyf F? ggpfaff this bundle of comic books so that he may fly with Super- gy!! 5-I I 757 man or become radioactive with the Yokums--all without fn Q C24 ZQ474f 7' Y llKf 1 K I , 1 X! ff f Q 5' leaving the Study Hall. N Article IV. Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy I El A - ,fr ,6 , and dapper and wise. For Thomas Dowey we have purchased this shaving kit complete with mirror, so that he will not Il' g be confused by a five o'clock shadow at the dawn of the day. 'i'f7jTix 1 E ,-..,E.,,5 : 5 A . Il' Article V. To Martin Ide we leave this tricycle, so that , he won't have to walk to Cochituate. Perhaps a bicycle LJ built for two would be even better in his case. Z-LJ' Article VI. Phil Harris has his That's 'Nhat I Like About the South and Bing Crosby his White Christmas, but with 1 the Wayland High Orchestra, it's Down Main Street. We QOJ have purchased for this group of musicians a new piece with f which to entertain next year's students, nwith a Hey, and a ,V Hi, and a Ho, Ho, Ho. . 'A KJ . I Article VII.

.J fem no as L.. d Qs ,Q mm! f QU new Q! Ljcfb C two HJust think, Nancy, it's ten years since we graduated from high school, and the Wayland Airport is beginning today its round-the-world afternoon flights. Let's take a trip, we can be back by dinner time.n HA very good idea, Barbara. Oh! Look! Frank NcLellan's the pilot. He has been with the airplane company for several years. Hurry, the plane's taking off!V HOh, Nancy, here we go up in the air! I'm far too excited right now to concen- trate on this magazine. Wait, though, the cover girl is very lovely! Let me look closer. Of course, it's Joan Lightfoot! Joan has become internationally known as one of the country's top-flight fashion models. Joan is very chic. We must have her address our club, The Future Business Leaders of America.H nWhy we're flying over New York already! This jet-plane has more speed than l ever imagined possible. A few minutes from Wayland Airport, and we're in New York! Stewardess, is that the new International Building, please? Mary Lee, of all people! How long have you been working for the Wayland Airlines? I know you're too busy to talk now, but we simply must compare notes some of these days. Barbara, did you know that that building was designed by Lester Gray, and that it is now the tallest in the world? Look, isn't that someone waving to us from that office window? It's Barbara Gersbach, Norman Hollett's bustling, but effi- cient secretary. Hi, 'Babs!'H n'Way over in the corner surrounded by his usual array of papers is our book- keeping genius, Murray Stahl. He appears to be helping some struggling bookkeeper to make the books balance. There's someone else waving to us from that window on the floor below. This time it's Peggy DiModica, dental secretary to one of New York's most successful dentists.n uln just a few minutes we'll be passing over Chicago and that spot offers more surprises. Norma Tarr is one of the city's best dancing instructors. Norma's absolute guarantee to teach anyone to dance in two easy lessons has won her many grateful patrons. Two more of our girls, Frances Hynes and Rose Ward, have become very successful! One of the city's largest hospitals holds the distinction of having Frances as its competent Superintendent and equally capable Rose as Super- visor of Nurses.H uLcok, Nancy, here come the vast wheat fields of Nebraska! Far below, covering an acre of land, stretches the very modern Handrahan Institute of Farming. Its founder, world renowned bacteriologist, John Handrahan, is busily teaching his amazingly new scientific theories to his students.H nNow as our plane zooms over Arizona, we may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of Dottie Place and Frances Davieau. Dottie owns the Bar-X Ranch and is in her glory, riding from dawn to sunset. Frances is in charge of one of Arizona's lar- gest travel bureaus.n nSunny California! That looks like a football game down there. Why, yes! It's the famous Rose Bowl Game, and there is 'Tucker' Egan dashing over the fifty-yard line. Wait! What is he doing now? To whom is he throwing the ball? Tom's tricky pass is very neatly caught by Jack Tivnan. Everyone in the sports world knows of the feats of Egan and Tivnan, a team that is fast setting foot- ball records everywhere. The crowd is in an uproar, a touchdown has been scored! Above all booms the voice of the sports announcer, our own Dickie Dew.H NWe're at the Metro Studios. There's Richard Riley, stage, screen, and radio star, busy at work filming his new picture, 'What a Life!' Richie has been holding his audiences spellbound with his antics for the past five years. Let's peek in at Studio A as we go by. You can see Danny Laughlin and Doris LaFrance
