Ol ' course, the above paragraph is written in jest. For in the following ])ages of black print, there are many words that help to recapitulate uidorgetful events that occurred during tlie lour, wonderful years that we, the graduating class of ' 49, spent together. It is not an easy task, as Mr. Kearns will testily, to express in an interesting way those events that will be forever dear to us. Our class history is written in an indirect way. The eventful parts of our four years at W.H.S. are written so as to coincide with a series of events that also took place in the year ' 49, one century earlier, 1849, when gold was discovered in the Sacramento Valley of California. To California many thousands of people went by wagon across the plains from the North, the East, and the South, always subject to the attacks of Indians and death by starva- tion or thirst. Their journey to the West is not much unlike our four-year journey through Weymouth High School. While they had hoped to attain at the end of their long and perilous trijj a pot of gold , we dreamed of the great, now historical day, when we would receive our sheepskins. So remember as you read this class history, to try to synchronize the two expeditions. STAGES ONE AND TWO Notice was given by Mr. Mapes of a caravan forming for a trip to the gold country in September of 1945. All interested members were to report to rcxmis 101-206A of Weymouth High School for further information. A Maroon and Gold circular containing instructions and directions relating to the four-year journey to be tmdertaken was given to those reporting. The head coachman, Mr. Whittle, with his assistants, welcomed the pioneers, who were just starting on their perilous journey. Supplies were given to all, and the forty-niners who had assembled from the various sections were soon well acquainted. When the caravan began to move onward, various reactions were noted among the group. Most were extremely serious, being frightened by the size of the caravan and by the numerous rumors they had heard about all the impending dangers. Our first difficulty occurred when a group that had been sent out for food failed to return, so a scouting party had to be dispatched to locate them. They were finally safely returned to wagons No. 101 and No. 114. (Remember those split lunches?) However, after miles of walking, pushing, and ricling in those hard uncomfortable wagons, all became adapted to the routine of the trip. The first two years of the undertaking were rather uneventful. Each year fol- lowed more or less the same routine. To break the monotony, however, sports events were planned with a series of football games being played when other caravans were met along the route. Thanksgiving Day was celebrated by our team, coached by Paul Sweeney, playing a team from Cronin ' s Creek. To pep up the group and to cheer the team on to victory, a Booster ' s Club was formed under the leadership of Miss Toomey and Mr. Ghiorse. Once a week this group provided pre-game entertainment by a series of skits which were usually presented at some loclge along the route. The season closed by paying honor to the athletes by a banquet, at which awards were given to the most outstanding ones, followed a few days later by a Victory Dance which all who attended greatly enjoyed. During the winter season, a new group, the Chess Club, was organized by Mr. Matthews to provide entertainment for chess players and any interested spectators. The leaders were Bob McCarthy, Robert Marr, Allan Patterson, and Ronnie Bresnahan. Page Seventeen Travelling along, we found a number of musically talented people with us. At various times, they provided entertainment while we sat around the campfires. In appreciation of such, money was obtained to purchase colorful maroon and gold uniforms for these entertainers. On oiu- join ney, we found sorrow occasionally interrujjling our happiness. Such was the case when death took Mr. Calderwood, who, lor a great number of years, had aided musical groups in our home sections. A short time l)efore, everyone had been greatly shocked by the loss of one of our aiUomobile mechanics leaders, Mr. Bryan. The first stage of oin- trip was broken by a ten-week rest stop, during which time fresh supplies were taken on and general repairs were made. Some desired to leave the caravan at this time. Among them were Miss Chase, Miss Jones, Miss Pray, Mrs. Oppler. and Mr. Matthews. There were a ninnber of people who had listened to oiu ' stories of adventiue and, as a restdt, wanted to continue along with us. Lack- ing facilities, we could take only a few, including Mr. Erwin, Miss MacDougall, Miss Salo, and Miss Ghiorse. Mr. Cleaves, who had been detained in protecting a section of our roiue against an Indian raid, rejoined us early in the year, followed a little later by Mr. Arlanson. STAGE 1 HREE The beginning of our third year found us just packing up to leave the Weymoiuh Hotel in Kansas City, Kansas. Some of us had been fortimate in being assigned to rooms freshly painted in rather unusual colors, rose, blue, ( r green. During our stay there, more changes took place with Mr. Loud, Miss Silverman, Miss Pearson, and Mr. Sherwood leaving us, biu in return. Miss Hill, Miss Gill, Mr. Stuart, Miss Fla- herty, Mr. Pieper, Mr. Roy, Mr. Rudolph, and Mr. Dwyer joined us. En route, the group, weary of the constant toil of travel, decided to take time out for recreation. The caravan divided into a number of different teams called Brock- ton, Weymouth, Quincy, North Quincy, Abington, Hingham, etc. to play a series of football games. Oiu spectacular Weymouth team under Co-captains Covency and Bicknell won by a score of 7 to 0, over the Brockton team. At other times dining the trip, brief encounters were held among the caravan groups and, at the end of the series of games, two tro])hies were awarded; one to John DiGravio, the other to Jimmy Coveney. To build up enthuiasm, three of our members, Barbara Weidman, Janet Melville, and Ann Russo, were selected to head a cheering section. In one town where we stopped, the people were experimenting with a newspaper called the Spectatoi , which was later discontinued because most of the townspeople moved westward with the gold rush. The carpentry and rej air crew stopped oft for a short time at the foothills of the Rockies to build a house for one of the caravan leaders, Mr. Driscoll, who had found the basis lor his dreams in one of the small mining towns we passed. During the Christmas season of our third year, the entire caravan was again deep- ly saddened by the accidental death of one of the outstanding members of wagon No. 223, Ethel Voigt. So again our wagon wheels rolled westward. On our way we elected officers. The outcome was: John Siieehan, jjresident; John Mclniosh, vice-president; Helen McGlynn, secretary: and John Chase, treasurer. The maintenance and repair crew chose Frank Colijy, president; Lawrence Raby, vice-president; and Edward White, secretary-treasurer. It was a stormy, rainy night on May 4, 1948 as we took lodging in Denver, Colo- rado. To relieve the strain of our hardships, a party was held. Fhe building was gaily decorated with marine decorations and sea growths. George McCue ' s orches- tra su])i)lied the nuisic . Joan Fieeman and Eddie DeLuc a were crowned king and Pa ' c Eighteen (juccil in llic c ' limiiial [Oil daiKc. Oilu r ciiU ' i laiiiiiic nl iiuliulc ' d soii s hy I ' cggy Miller, I ' hyllis Keimcy, Shii Icy Lync h, and l aul CHai k, skils l)y Eve lyn Iiir|)hy and Ann Slicchan, and solos by Mr. Lyndi, ihe janiior. Vcrna MacDonald and Barbara Nelson enlertained willi piano selec lions. One ol the inosi enjoyaljle num- bers was the taj) daiuins duel t;i en by Bai i)ara Weidnian and Lorraine Raymond. Living condil ions were aslly dilleicni in the Iroiilier lowns ihrougli which we passed. One da we gathered al ihe general store and listened lo stories ol the adventuresome people who had seltlecl in the region. I ' hey told us all kinds ol interesting stories al)oiU I heir lives, the possibilities ol making a living, the advan- tages and disad antagcs ol such a way ol living. It was not uniil we were moving along toward Salt Lake (iity that we lound theie were some outstanding in scholastic ability with us. Among these was a business student, Alice Akie, who had pas,sed the 12()-word Gregg Shorthand Certificate test given by Miss Noris. This was the first time in school history that anyone had ever past that test in the junior year. In f)ur caravan was a boy, Robert Marr, who had been presented a book trom a Harvard society lor his outstanding ability. To celebrate our rapid progress during the past year, a part of the group went on a scouting party to explore the surrounding territory, finally arriving at a place called Cirescent Park. After a long, dusty ride, the water looked most refreshing; so immediately a couple of the more rugged pioneers plunged in only to hear to their regret that the water was polluted. Then a long, dusty trip back to camp. STAGE FOUR 1 he s.nr.mer months Hew l)y anil fall was soon again with us. Since our wagons had to be repaired at this time, a small caravan including Mrs. Masters, Mrs. Ley- don, Mr. Annis. Mr. Carlson, Mr. Henley, Miss Pearson, Mr. Dicker, Mr. Whit- more, and Mr. Kearns caught ujj with us. While sitting around our campfire, we were entertained by stories of England as told by Mr. Dicker and Miss Pearson. Mr. Mitchell found a profitable place to settle; so he left the group before reaching the destination. Construction men were in great demand throughout this region of great opportunities so Mr. Rudolph and Mr. Pieper also decided lO leave us. Upon returning to our caravan, we were pleasantly surprised to find many new facilities, wliich made the remainder of our journey more comfortable, and to notice the attractive interior decorations. Early in November, we decided it was time for us to do some thinking about our future. We knew it would be wise for us to listen to the advice of those more experi- enced. So in the small mining town of Gutterson ' s Gulch, we gathered round our caravan while a group of experienced men from the town talked to us about the pos- sibilities which would present themselves after we had reached our ilestination. Mr. Kelly, one of our drixers, remained behind when the caravan moved on to help defend the settlers against the Indians. On November 17, another stop was made at Reffector Lake to replenish our sup ply of water. At this time, a feast was held for those members of our own and other caravans in this section who had managed the literary efforts. At various times, the work of the long, weary journey was somewhat lessened by pleasant athletic activities, provided by small units of the caravan. In honor of those participating in these events, a get-together was held at Victory Valley, during which awards were given to the most outstantling in these activities, Neil Russo and Bobby Hacketl. I he following night everyone enjoyed listening and dancing to the music of Art Jackson ' s orchestra, and, in the morning, we continued on our jour- ney. Because of the outstanding way in which we had performed these sports, we were informed while on our wav that we were now rated as CHass A. Page Nineteen After continuing along our way, we stopped on December 21 to celebrate the Christmas season. In the evening, we gathered roimd the campfire and exchanged gilts with Mr. Brown, one of our drivers, as old St. Nick. Refreshments were en joyed, and entertainment was provided by members of our caravan. We rested for a few days, thoroughly enjoying the holiday and then continued on our hazardous journey. On Jatiuary 14, a stop was retjuired for a few days because of bad weather. To break the monotony of ihe delay, a concert was jjresented by the musically talented members of the caravan. Given imder the able leadershi]} of Mr. Russell Jack, wiih specialties by a brass quartet and a string trio, it was enjoyed by all who attended. All felt recognition should be given to the young lady in the caravan outstanding in dependability, service, leadership, and ])atriotism. This honor was given Janet Heaver. A selection was also made to detcmiine a person cjualified at studying the plans for a good form of government in our fiuure settlement. Neil Russo was our choice for this. The caravan stopped two nights at I ramatown, where a play entitled I he Fighting Li: ties was being presented. Most of our group attended one of the pei- formances, in wliich Joan Freeman, Barbara Nelson, and Allan Patterson starred. On April 29, the caravan foimd reason for an all-out celebration since we had crossed the crest of the Sierras, and the gold country was at last in sight. How should we celebrate? Finally we decided upon a gala affair at which we all enjoyed ourselves listening and dancing to the soft strains of the latest hit tunes. On June 22, tired and weary, we readied our destination, Sheepskin Valley. Under thle able leadership of our officers, our journey had been a success. California loomed before us and our futures began to take sliape. The gleaming gold was at last oins. We each received oiu share of the gold, for which we had worked so hard these past four years. With joyous hearts and fond memories, we planned the man- ner in whicii we woidd celebrate. We decided upon a grand feast followed by a dance at which we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. l robably the last place we saw members of our caravan was at our outing together on June 24. Although we were glad to liave reached our destination safely and successfully, there was now a twinge of sadness within our hearts. Page Twenty iCay, Mort, do you remember all our pals who were with us on that wagon trip we made irom Weymouth in ' 49? I sure do. It took us four years, but we fmally made it— and we had tun all the way. 1 iv ' onder, Mort, what they ' re all doing now. Sa y, I ' ve got an idea. Let ' s find out just where they all are and put the news in a letter to be sent to all of them. What an idea, Mort! Everyone ' ll sure be pleased when they find out just what all the old gang ar e doing now.

Our forefathers, the Pilgi ims, were the first to realize that they owed more to their God than to their country. The church was considered the most important part of their community. Belief in God and God ' s will were their sustenance. God was their Leader; and thus they gave to us a glorious heritage, freedom under His guiding hand. Therefore, we have come to form our pattern of righteous living from God ' s word as expressed in the Bible, primarily in the Ten Commandments, and from the example of Christ. Each of our Presidents lays his hand upon the Bible while taking an oath to uphold the principles of our democracy. The Ten Command- ments, such as Thou shalt not steal and Thou shall not kill , form the basis of our American laws. From the study of the life of Christ wc have learned that we are remembered for our deeds. For, although Christ li ed for only thirty-three years, the quality of His life was such that He changed the course of history. Accordingly, from these three sources, Americans have formed the belief that an ideal democracy is rooted in obedience to God ' s laws. During the course of not too many years, however, the American attitude to- ward these fundamental concepts has greatly changed. Owing, perhaps, to an ab- sorption of time in business, sports, and varied amusements, our people today are devoting considerably less time to Him who created them and to His foundation, the Church. First of all, the principles of materalism and secularism are filling the hearts of those who feel they do not need God. There is a growing belief that educa- tion and science can solve all our problems, can create better societies, and can con- trol the degrees of peace and happiness. The great principles of morality and Christianity, which should be instilled in the heart of every American, are being neglected by allowing science and the ideals of modernism to be given the foremost emphasis. Through our own fault, it appears that faith in God is being supplanted by individual selfishness and greed for power. People are becoming more and more unwilling to sacrifice. Each one is interested mainly in gaining happiness and com- fort for himself, rather than in leaving to posterity an America enwrapped in har- mony and security. But wc must first preserve the glory of God if we wish to pre- serve our nation as it has been given to us in righteousness and truth. We must also take a stand against the materialistic beliefs which threaten our American way of life. Page Sixty-eight Our ancestors well undcrslood the need ol a unified liiitli in G(k1. Every great American leader has lori elully and puhlidy expressed his convif tions ol this need. In our war lor independeni e, l alri( k Hem y staled, riu ie is a just dod who presides over the destinies ol nations . During the great C ivil War Abraham Lin- coln declared, with assurance, —this nation, under God, shall have a new birth ol Ireedom . At the death ol the same martyred Lincoln, Gi rfield proclaimed, (iod reigns and the government at Washington still lives . We Americans today are living on the ground that our lorelalhers died to make Iree. Why then do we not love and remember the God who, by the admission ol our lorelalhers, gave them sirength to fight lor Ireedom? Are Americans becoming an unapprec iative people? 11 we consult statistics, we lind that almost one-hall Ol the people today admit that they do not attend church. Thcjse same people cannot, therefore, be whole-hearied Americans, since the ac- cepted birthright of our nation, the life blood of our democracy, the only imifying force wliich can defeat materialism and secidarism, is faith in God, as revealed in Christianity and in Judaism, from which Christainity has sprung. We are at the darkest of all hours in our history when our very democracy is being threatened by the forces of a godless communistic ])hilosophy, which, if whole-heartedly lived, will be more powerfid than our Ghristian philosophy only half-lived. If we wish to lose our great land of o])portunity and prosperity, we need make no effort to sufxlue these foices of the materialistic believers. If we want to preserve our heritage, we must first maintain as our watchword In God we trust . In that way we, the graduating class of 19 19 and all other Americans, will be constantly re- minded that we are all the children of a generous Father from whom blessings will continuously How if we ask lor them. May eaclt one of tis today and every clay kneel humbly before our God, thanking Him to help us maintain our democracy, which is so important for tlie peace of tfiis entire world. Page Sixly-nine HIGH HONOR ESSAY THE PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE By Robert Bruce Marr The greatest and noblest pleasure ivhirh we can Jiax ' e in this world is to discoxier nen ' truths, and tlie next is to shake of] old prejudices. Frederick The Great E live in a world which science has benefited mankind in an unbelievable number of ways, and has contributed to its progress on a scale that is beyonrl our powers to comprehend. Man may, in several hours, make journeys that would have required several months ' time a few short centuries ago. His voice is carried across continents and oceans at the speed of light, to be heard and understood by other human beings. With the tools which science has given him, man may pass over impenetrable barriers to explore formerly inaccessible parts of the earth. Science teaches him new and better ways of making the best use of the world ' s natural resources. His living is improved by the use of scientific wonders that would cause Aladdin to throw away his magic lamp in disgust. Yet we must remember that this same force that brings about such improved social and economic conditions and which gathers the far reaches of the globe into a closer contact with one another is a threat as well as a blessing to mankind. For with his rockets and supersonic aircraft, his atomic bombs and bacteriological war- fare, man possesss the seeds of self-destruction. If the practical applications alone were the guiding principle of science, then the human race would be doomed at the hands of men who use the fruits of science to satisfy their own individual greed and thirst for power. But the true scientist looks upon the practical applications as only the by-pro- ducts of his true goal, which is to seek and find the real nature of the iniiverse in which he lives. When Galileo formulated his fundamental laws of motion, he was trying to understand the workings of nature, and had no thought of machines which might be guided by his principles. Maxwell, in his endeavors to discover the nature of light, little knew that his findings would lead in time to the phenom- enon which we call radio. Naturally, the scientist regards the practical applications as valuable to himself and to his fellow man, but he is moved by a higher force than the wish to make life easier. The spirit of science, then, is primarily a profound curiosity on the part of the scientist. He is constantly exploring the unknown, searching for new truths only because they are truths, seeking new laws that will bring some mystery out into the light, spurred on only by the desire to comprehend the universe. This doc- trine of constant searching after knowledge, if adopted by all men, could be of considerable value in a world in which progress is still retarded by ignorance, and by fears, superstitions, and irrational ideas that lead to devasting wars. Science, however, is also the spirit of courage, tolerance, and humaneness, and in these three great virtues, science suggests ways in which mankind in general slundd conduct itself in order to secure greater harmony among its c|uarrelling lad ions. Page Seventy The scic ' iitisl lias (lie (ouragc to (asl aside ( eiitiiry-old notions in place of newer and Ixtiei ideas, (ionlrary to the |)o|)uiar trend, tiie scientist does not flee from an idea lu ' caiise it is new. If sc ieiue had rejec ted the theories of sudi men as Newton, Darwin, and Maxwell, merely l)ecaiise they broke down some of their cherished beliefs, how could we jxxssibly have made the progess which we look, back on today? Similarly, if we try to reject Einstein ' s relativity and other revolutionai y ideas, because they are contrary to our prejudices, how can we hope to look forwanl to greater advances in human comfort and in oiu ' knowledge of nature? We, like the scientist, must learn to rejoice in each new discovery, even though it means a revision of some of our pet ideas. Science also teaches mankind how to i)e tolerant of the points of view of others. 1 hrough the ages, science lias been a co-operative venture undertaken by men and Avcjmen respresenting every race, creed, and nationality. Archimedes was a Greek, Copernicus, a Pole; Galileo, an Italian; Newton, an Englishman; the Curies were French and Polish. U he scientist, realizing how little mankind really knows and how much remains to be learned, cannot afford to be .scornful of another man ' s dis- coveries and theories. He must be ready and willing to change his own point of view in the light of e idence, and the source of the new evidence should make little differ- ence in final oiucome. Lastly, science is liumane. ft has l)een our custom to poke fun at the scientist as an absent-minded, bewhiskered old man who shuts himself in his laboratory, com- pletely imaware of the cares af the world. There are, douljtless, such individuals to be found, but such a picture is certainly an unfair one, and is not representative of the true spirit of science. The scientist, notwithstanding the abstract natine of his work, is a man, and as such is deeply cocerned with the fate of his kind. This has become especially scj in recent years, when he has seen his theories and discoveries put to destructive uses by man in his futile struggle to gain more power than the other fellow. Albert Eiristein, whose work coidd hardly be much further removed from the common interest of life, had this to say when he addresed the students of the Cali- fornia IntitiUe of Technology in 1931. Why does this magnificent applied science, which saves work and makes life easier, bring us so little happiness? The simple answer is: Because we have not yet learned to make sensible use of it. It is not enougli that you should understand about applied science, in order that your work may increase man ' s blessings, Einstein went on. Concern for the man himself and his fate must always form the chief interest of all technical en- deavors. Never forget this in the midst of your diagrams and etjuations. ' Thus we see the scientist as a man whose chief interest is the accumulations and simplification of further knowledge of nature. To achieve this aim, he must face his task with courage and with tolerance. We also see that the scientist recognizes the greatness of man as well as the greatness of the universe, for we find him able to set aside his test tubes and atom-smashers and join with his fellow men in their com- mon interest. Though the scientist is conscious of the great jjower he has acc[uired through his solving of .some of the mysteries of nature, he is also aware that the more lie learns the more he discovers that remains to be learned; the realization of this fact makes him himible. As Bertrand Russell put it, We know very little, and yet it is astonishing that we know so much, and still more astonishing that so little know- ledge can give us so much power. The scientist carries an optimistic outlook of the future. He sees man in time - shaking oft his petty differences and developing a keener uncferstanding of his world and liimself. He realizes that science alone cannot bring aboiu these conditions, but he confidently awaits the day when human nature, through education and religion, shall reach its maturity ancl man shall be in a position to receive all the benefits which science offers him. That day may never come, but it is the ultimate goal to- ward which all men, whether scientists or not, are striving. Lets us look ahead with science over the road of progress to the pinnacle of per- fection, wliich, with God ' s lielp, we may some day be privileged to ascend. Page Seventy-one HIGH HONOR ESSAY THE ROAD TO A BETTER DEMOCRACY By Barbara Eleanor Nelson ROM the moment we began otir career as students, we have been travelling on a long, upward road, the foundation ol which was laid in Massachusetts liv Hor- ace Mann over a hundred years ago. That road, which wc now realize to be ol vital importance in fiu thering true democratic liv ing, is Educaiion. The value ol such a road has ccrtamly been great, lor in what other way could the many people who have settled on our shores learn our language, understand our laws, acquire a basic knowledge of our government, vote intelligently, or ex- emplify American ideals? Dr. Payson Smith once said, Society must insure itself through the education of all the people. In the field of education the progress of the first pioneers was seriously im- paired by the lack of transportation, necessary ccjuipment, and teachers adeciuately trained for the profession. As time went on, however, educational crusaders banded together to improve existing conditions and to hasten the develo]mient of this vital road. Several states began to establish normal schools to train teachers; others introduced free public elementary schools and made attendance obligatory. Gradually these crusaders won the support of the general public who finally realized how important this road of education was in builditig a better democracy. Once the foundation was firmly laid, the road rapidly expanded until it was divided into three main lanes: the intellectual, the physical, and the spiritual. It is these lanes, in which we have been travelling during the past twelve years, that have been influential in developing our personalities. While advancing in the first lane, that of intellect, we have learned the limda- mental principles of government, acquired a belter understanding of human nature, developed a clearer outlook on life through science, and have to reason logically and to express ideas clearly. In order to make the most of ihe lessons taught us on tliis road, we have foiuid it necessary to develoj) oinselves physically, lor withoiu energy and strength it is impossible lo survive or lo break tlown ihe barriers which retard progress. It was in the third lane, however, that we began to realize that without hope and faith in (iod, we could not expect to find courage to overcome obstacles or the strength lo journey onward. Page Seventy-two Moreover, these three lanes, combined into one main highway, have developed us soc ially, ior as we have travelled on, we have met people ol every denoiiiiiiai ion, in every walk ol lile, all seardiing lor the same goal— a l)etier denKKracy. By work- ing and |)lainiing together, we have learned to aaept peoj)le the way we find them and now realize that to have a road wide enough lor all, we must c:omj)romise, co- operate, develop self-control, and resj)ect others. Having ac(|uired a proper atti- tude toward life, we have tried to help those less fortunate than we. Perhaps one of the greatest lessons we have learned is to think of others rather than of ourselves alone; for, as John Ruskin wrote, Youth, freed from desire for personal power and self-advancement has gone a step farther in the quest for Democracy. He also said that we advance on the road of life not by making our- selves cons])icuous, but by becoming great in heart and mind. As we set forth on this road anew today, with more responsibilities, duties, aims, and ambitions than ever before, let us ask God for strength to better our de- mocracy, for courage to live up to our motto, Onward, Porty-Niners, and for the power to heed these lines of Emerson: So nigh is grandeur lo our dust, So near is God to man. When Duty ivhispers low, THOU MUST, The youth replies, I CAN! Page Seventy-three 1. Ira Bloom, Betsy Brown, Joan DiBona, Philip Mariner — Lan- guafre Programme 1949. 2. Barbara Chellis. 3.

Student Council Jn addition to performing the regular duties of organizing the lunch room and fire drills, the Student Council sponsored the annual Victory Dance on December 10, 1948, with Art Jackson ' s orchestra supplying the music. Delegates and representatives attended the Fall Convention of the South- eastern Branch of Associated Bodies of Student Councils at North Attleboro High School on November 17, 1948, where Dr. Judson Butler, Dean of Boston Univer- sity, gave an address on Training for Leadership. The cheering section of the Thanksgiving Day Rally was composed of Stu- dent Council members who also sponsored other assemblies during the year. To complete its activities for this year, the Student Council worked with the town committe to promote the successful Tuberculosis X-Ray Drive which began in Weymouth on March 21, 1949. May the future members of the Student Coimcil have a successful year and enjoy their work as much as we have.

( N February 10 and 11, the Class of ' 49, under the competent direction of Miss Edna Flaherty of the faculty, presented The Fighting Littles, a comedy by Caroline Fraucke, adapted from the novel of the same title by Booth Tarkington. The story meant just what tlie title said. It was one of the episodes, as Filmer would say, in the life of the fighting Littles. Goody loved Ham and he loved her, but Mr. Little didn ' t exactly like Ham. Filmer loved Antoinette and the feeling was mutual. Mrs. Little and Olita tried desperately to keep peace in the house, while Almatina tried to keep it together. Mr. Little thought that Norman Peel was just the man for Goody, but Henriette thought he was the man for her. Mrs. Har- peddle, Norman ' s aunt, and her son, Dicky, came to tea along with Miss Pologa, one of Miss Harpeddle ' s dancers who commimes. Cucko and Screwball, two of Goody ' s friends, came, too, and pademonium broke loose; Ham emerged the hero and won the girl. Filmer won Antoinette, Henriette, Norman, while Mrs. Little gained peace and qtiiet— for a while.

Cheerleaders npHE cheerleaders this year have lived up to their reputation as the prettiest and best on the South Shore. They went to all the football games and most of the basketball games. Some of the girls went to the State Meet at Boston Garden to spur on the track team. Priscilla Hall moved to New Hampshire and her loss was really felt, but the substitutes filled her shoes admirably. This year ' s substitutes, who filled in very well when one of the regulars was absent, were Barbara Graham, Nancy Norwood, Doris Donaldson, Marjorie Dan- iels, and Joanne McKinnon. Captain Mary Loud, Barbara Weidman, Ann Russo, and Janet Melville are graduating and they leave the nucleus of their wonderful squad to next year ' s captain. Good Luck!

Basketball eymouth ' s basketball season of 1948-1949 could not be classed as highly success- ful, but it did provide many thrilling moments to the fans. One of the most exciting games was the first Hingham game which Weymouth won by a score of 43 to 27. The starting team for the most part of the season was Captain Jack Delahunt and Bill Sprague as forwards, Norm Wright as center, and Jack Sheehan and Jim Kane at the guard positions.

French Club NCE again the French Club has enjoyed another successful year under the com- petent cUrection of Miss Canning. After the business meeting, which was con- ducted entirely in French, a social hour was held, planned by the entertainment committee appointed for the meeting. Again this year the French Club, with the aid of the Spanish Club, presented the Language Appreciation Program in the atiditoritnn. Four plays were present- ed about each of the four languages offered at the high school, English, Spanish, Latin, and French. The club wishes to thank Miss Canning for her wonderful leadership. A cor- dial welcome is extended to all taking a second or third year of French next year.

The officers were Betsy Brown, president; Elinor Wardwell, vice-president; Betty Doyle, secretary; and Natalie Gumming, treasurer. The business meetings were conducted for the most part in Spanish; after the meetings, many interesting pro- grams were presented as entertainment. Some of the activities included listening to records, learning songs, reading from a Spanish newspaper, and corresponding with students in Spanish-speaking countries. The members of the club enjoyed a Christmas party and attended the Open House sponsored by the French Club. They presented a Spanish play, La Prueba , at the Language Appreciation Rally. The membership of this year was approximately twenty-five, and it is hoped that the club will continue to grow and become one of the foremost organizations in Weymouth High School.

Ski Club NOTHER season of the Weymouth High Ski Chib came to a close last spring. The membership has increased to approximately fifty pupils. The piu ' pose of our club is to instruct students in the art of skiing, also to stimidate their intrest in this sport. The club, supervised by Mr. Cleaves and Miss Hill, elected James Hasset, president; Gus Peterson, vice-president; Mildred Nyberg, secretary; and Jane Mac- Goldrick, treasiuer. Ronald Hcitman was our technical adviser. We were unable to do much skiing this year because of the deficiency of snow. However, the group enjoyed a wonderful all-day trip to Brattleboro, Vermont. The present members wish to thank Miss Hill and Mr. Cleaves for all the help and support they have given us. We should also like to invite all those interested lo join our club in the coming year.

At the completion of the course everyone was issued a projectionist license to show his capability of operating. The name of the club was changed this year from the Projection Club to the Audio- Visual Club because the club has many other duties than just operating projectors. The club ' s duties are to show motion picltires, make recordings, and do other visual aids work. We should like to extend our gratitude to Mr. Cleaves for his work and wish him successs and happiness with the club in the years to come.
