To Me. Scanlon: An ice-bag to be applied directly after saying Farewell to the pres- ent unique Senior class. To Mr. Merrill: A class who will appreciate his jokes as hugely as have we, and one which thinks as highly of him as has the class of ' 40. To Miss St. Clair: A hole out in Kentucky in which to bury the tuition fees twice a year ! (With apologies to U.S. gold.) To Miss Pratt: A little bell to be worn around her neck so that the more talkative students in the library will have a fifty-fifty chance to sprint for the door. To Mr. Hawley: We dedicate the song from the Operetta New Moon — Oh give me some men who are stout-hearted men. (Well, men, any way!) To Miss Evelith: A class who can draw a room in perspective without achieving the effect one would expect to see along with pink elephants and the little man who wasn ' t there ! To Miss Lammers: A carton of vitamin pills to give her the strength to watch the class of ' 40 swing confidently and unanimously to the left when the order given is Right Face! To Mr. Patterson: A class which reads something in the newspapers besides LIT Abner and Elza Poppin ' . To Miss Tobey: A Math class which, when the question, Close your eyes and what do vou see? is popped, won ' t cheerfully reply, Nothing! To MR. Conlin: A high, stiff, wing collar to prevent him from sadly shaking his head at future classes which may blissfully wander into ' Lit ' class with assignments undone. To Mrs. Brooks: A mammoth trailer to hitch to her Pontiac, in which to place the more reluctant students on her now famous field trips. To Miss Lusk: A grey wig to give her a more aged and venerable appearance, and to save her the embarrassment of being hailed as a freshman by the incoming class each fall. To Mr. Kelly: A book which we ' re sure will interest him someday when all eight Kelly children are swinging from the chandeliers at once — Live Alone and Like It. Signed : Mary L. Kennedy Attorney- At-Law. The Class of 1940 also makes the following bequests : Bonnie ' s gay and happy disposition to all gloomy underclassmen. The cool poise and capable manner of Gertrude Cady to those who would be superior teachers. 31 CLASS WILL— Continued Kay Coughlin ' s good looks and flashing smile to all who would charm their classes in training. The calm serenity and unruffled disposition of Mildred Herold which makes her so nice to know. El Hamilton ' s ability in the Terpsichorean art to all wall-flowers. The enviable wardrobe of Estelle Sarnecki to all who would aspire to the title of being Westfield ' s best-dressed student. Marge Houlihan ' s unique method of expressing her feelings through clever convolutions of her hands to all future actresses. The quiet and unassuming manner of Grace Morse to the more ram- bunctious ! Marge Warner ' s and Ruth Syriac ' s musical ability and interest in Glee Club to all aspiring prima donnas in the school. Mary Kennedy ' s unusual versatility educationally and socially, com- bined with her attractiveness and charming personality, as an ideal for the typical college girl. To future student treasurers, a huge net with which to ensnare all students who neglect to pay their student fees. The donor? Leonie Don Carlos. June Glanville ' s keen appreciation of humor and her boundless out- bursts of laughter with the accompanying ever-ready remark, Do you know any more? The rare gift possessed by Beverly Dineen of combining studies and social life, and achieving the seemingly impossible, a happy medium. Alma Howard ' s blonde petiteness to all who believe the age-old adage, Gentlemen prefer blondes! The honor of being the lone man in the Senior class is left by Bob McDowell to the men in the Freshman and Sophomore classes. Frieda Mourtses ' capacity for high standards in studies and extra-cur- ricular activities, and her ever-pleasant manner to all underclassmen. Alberta ' s rich red hair and sparkling personality to all would-be Scarlett O ' Haras. An unswerving loyalty to home-town and an all-embracing friendli- ness possessed by Nellie-Jo. The careful articulation of Excelle Chevalier to all members of the speech class. The quickness of Miriam Donovan to win a host of friends in one short year at Westfield, to all who are poring over the book, How To Win Friends and Influence People. Marge O ' Day leaves her faculty for worry and knack for preparing assignments on time to the more careless, carefree students. The boundless energy of Margaret Piergiovanni in the interest of the Science Club to all future Tom Edisons. Eileen Stevens ' constant good humor and natural dramatic ability to all who would attain her heights as a character actress in the annual Dramatic Club productions.

Brooks, if she survives our class in June. In witness whereof we hereunto set our hand and seal this twelfth day of June, nineteen hundred and forty. ,„., CLASS OF 1940 Witnesses : Mary Lauretta Kennedy Cathryn Marie Coughlin Eleanor Irene Hamilton 32 Class Prophecy June 7, 1955 Dear Leonie, Just imagine — next week the illustrious class of 1940 will have its fifteenth reunion ! In honor of the occasion Freida and I thought it would be a good idea to prepare a bulletin of the present-day activities of our class members, so at this point I ' m soliciting information. I ' ve written to Al- berta enlisting her aid in this worthy venture ; I do hope we can get news of everyone. Have you read Freida ' s book on Tests and Measurements? It ' s one of the best. I assure you. Freida, still the energetic soul that she was in college, has already started writing another to be entitled Effective Man- agement — Classroom and Otherwise. It shows all the early signs of an- other best seller. Freida writes that Marge Warner is practicing for her summer tour with the Metropolitan Opera Company, and is looking for- ward to another thrilling season. Well do I remember the days of the Glee Club operettas ! I met Ruth Syriac on the street the other day, and she brought news of quite a few of our former class members. Ruth, you know, has recently been made General Supervisor of Music for the State of Massachusetts. She told me that Esther Storey has come into the spotlight through the National Education Association with an amazing plan for the complete reorganization of the elementary school program. News of Marge O ' Day also reached me through Ruth. Marge has been made chairman of the President ' s committee for the revision of the national constitution. Mr. Patterson would certainly agree that she is well-qualified for the position. Yesterday ' s mail brought a card from Margaret Piergiovanni, who is still pursuing a scientific career. From all accounts she is highly suc- cessful; I understand her name is being considered for the International Prize in Scientific Research for this year. Remember Estelle Sarnecki? What a shame it was that she couldn ' t have spent more than that one short year with us ! She retired from the principalship of that progressive junior high school when she was married not long ago. I told you I had written to Alberta enlisting her aid in the preparation of our class bulletin, but did I tell you what she ' s doing now? She left her teaching position, and good authority has it that she is now one of New York ' s most sought-after models. I can well understand why that Holly- wood company is trying to persuade her to sign a contract. Of course Massachusetts still has a very strong attraction for our Alberta ! Well, Leonie, this has been quite a lengthy letter, but I think the oc- casion warrants it, don ' t you? Write soon. I shall be waiting to hear from you. As ever, Marge 33 CLASS PROPHECY— Continued June 11, 1955 Dear Marjorie, Is it possible that fifteen years have passed since we were graduated from Westfield ? I succumbed to a reminiscent mood today when I received your letter. To tell you the truth, Marjorie, I have kept in close contact with a number of our classmates. Some of them, unfortunately, I haven ' t actually met for some time ; mention of any one of their names, however, finds me ever ready to listen. I saw Millie the other day. Miss Eveleth certainly must be proud. Imagine! Making those models of Trinity Church and Mount Vernon proved to be the first step in two very successful careers. Millie and Alma are partners in that very successful firm of Herold and Howard, Archi- tects. I remember someone told us that it was a man ' s world ; fifteen years have certainly changed that. Other things have changed too. Do you remember how trying it was to teach anything at this time of year? Samuel F. B. Morse couldn ' t have asked for a better namesake than Grace; she certainly has demonstrated that science and an inventive genius can surmount all obstacles — even stuf- fy rooms. Her G. Morse Air Conditioner has made such schoolrooms a thing of the past. You very modestly omitted any news of your success, Marge . Your performance on the International Television Network last week was mag- nificent! While I was thrilling to your interpretation of the character, I could visualize you on the stage at Westfield in those roles that kept us in stitches. I read in Mary L. Kennedy ' s column in The Week of Drama in Review that many of your plays are written by Mavis Moriarty. Your repeated successes are certainly tributes to Mavis ' s sense of humor and succinct literary analyses. They evidently have not suffered in the pas- sage of the years. As for Mary, it would certainly be surprising if she wrote only her weekly column ; she also writes poetry. Her anthology, The Star and Other Poems, is just off the press. She has dedicated it to the class ! Nellie Jo Hunt has done something unique. She has been commissioned by the Massachusetts Museum of Education to sculpture the group of figures in marble for the exhibit, The Teacher — Then and Now . To think that her hobby of soapcarving led to such an honor. Remember Bob McDowell? It is a pity that he couldn ' t have spent more of his college years at Westfield ; we had so little time to become ac- quainted with him. He had a sense of humor though which hasn ' t gone to waste. Read his College Life with Twenty-Five Girls. It ' s priceless ! We, of course are the twenty-five madcaps he immortalizes. I suppose, therefore, that I may consider myself as I have designated below. Immortally yours, Leonie 34 CLASS PROPHECY— Continued June 12, 1955 Dear Marge, How nice to hear from you again, especially when you have seen so many of the girls we went to college with. Isn ' t it interesting to hear what they are all doing now? This time I have some real news for you because I also have seen many people lately who graduated with us. First of all, I saw Bonny . She is very successful in her campaign to make us all walk more. Really, she has everyone walking here, there, and everywhere. A famous Shoe Company is trying to sign her up to manage a nation-wide campaign to walk more. Yes, she still likes apricot pie. Excelle is going around lecturing to groups of all kinds now. Her lec- ture today was How to Get Along with Our Own Dear Kiddies . I went to hear her and she was excellent. Some of the things she said brought back memories of W.S.T.C, but, of course, methods have changed so since then. She now advocates spanking the child when he breaks off the piano leg, instead of trying to find out why he did it. I went to the Central City Newspaper to put a summary of her lec- ture in for tomorrow ' s edition when I spotted Cathryn Coughlin. She is society editor now, and seems to enjoy her work immensely. When I got to her desk, she was talking on two telephones at once, advising a young man how to make his first proposal, and arranging a very swank wedding. When she got through with her telephone conversation she said that was her last bit of advice because she was marrying the owner of the newspaper next week! Kay told me, by the way, that Gertrude Cady and Miriam Donovan are running a private girls ' school, and are doing very well, too. You re- member, they joined our class in our senior year. Don ' t you wish they had been with us the entire four years? Beverly, it seems, has been married for some time. Her hair is still long and prettier than ever. She ' s doing a great deal for the school her two children are attending. I guess she keeps pretty well up on all the new methods and is president of the Parent-Teachers Club in Woronoco. We all thought she would end up there — and for once we were on the right track. Last week I went to New York where I looked up Leonie. She is treasurer of a large bank there. I was sent into a room in which she was having a meeting in time to hear her say, I dislike speaking of this very much, but you should have your money in now or at least tell me why you can ' t. Yes, I could almost close my eyes and feel young again. June Glanville visited me lately and told me she was experimenting with small puppies, children, and garden vegetables. She says if you treat them all with patience and kindness they will all grow up to be sweet- tempered. She has been so successful that now the children all like spinach and the dogs keep off the grass ' of their own accord. That goes to show you what a little determination and foresight will do. The last girl that I saw whom we knew was Eleanor Hamilton. She is also living in New York, and has the most darling apartment ! Remem- ber how well we all liked her? Well, she is just the same. She has in- vented some new gadgets for cars that have put her on easy street for the rest of her life. She owns a beautiful car of her own too and has a wonderful time driving around visiting friends. She says she likes danc- ing as much as ever and does plenty of it. Do let me hear from you soon — Alberta 35 O s- o 36 Junior Class, 1939-1940 Lucille Bemis Dorothy Bradley Theone Brooks . Elizabeth Burke Mary Buynicki . Catherine Crean Margaret Crean Mary Fay .
