the girls’ field hockey team, a group of energetic athletes, headed by Captain Dot Bergstrom, finished their season of seven games undefeated and untied to win the state championship. At the present moment, the Prom is still a dream yet to come true, the music of The Mikado” still to be heard. How- ever, the senior year will soon be but a memory. The class of 1946 will leave Arlington High School’s sheltering arms and the guidance of its fine teachers to build a full and happy life in a world at peace. Claire Ham, ’46. Page Fourteen

The pupils and faculty were grieved by the deaths of two of their beloved teachers — Mr. Ostergren and Miss Murray. How- ever, school life goes on in spite of grief, and plans were continued for the annual war bond auction. The highlight of this year ' s auction was the shaving off of Mr. Arthur’s newly-grown mustache in return for a sizeable bond. The total proceeds were almost exactly as in the previous year, over $4,000.00. As usual, the football team, headed by all-scholastic George.
