to this fountain The Baud The Arlington High School Band has admir- ably fulfilled its purpose by providing enter- tainment at various school functions. The ex- hilarating music and clever figures performed by members of the band at the football games have been extremely successful in arousing the spirit of the crowd and urging on the team. The band also helped a great deal in pro- moting the school spirit by playing at the vari- ous hockey and football rallies. Each year the high school band has com- peted successfully in the State Music Festivals. We know that with the capability and hard work of Mr. Hermance, our new director, our teams will be inspired to win greater victories in 1954. A. Lawton C. Sanders S. Coy J. Daijrle J. Peabody P.

S., both in its annual productions: ' Meet Corliss Archer,” in 1952, Our Miss Brooks,” in 1953, and State Fair,” in 1954, and in its entries in the Northeastern Massachusetts Regional Drama Festivals. Mrs. Matthews and Miss Manning, with their helpful advice and wise coaching, made working on the plays fun for everyone. The actors, business, advertising, and pro- gram committees, backstage crews, and ushers, with their faculty managers, plus many mem- bers acting in no official capacity, but always on hand when needed, can all be proud of their contributions. Credit should also go to the club officers, including this year’s officers, Presi- dent Judith Kerivan, Vice-President Ann O’Rourke, Secretary Janet Mongeau, and Treasurer Carol Caterino. Other activities, especially the annual picnics at Craine’s Beach, have also provided us with lasting memories.

Rec ” Committee Chairman Eleanor Keefe Throughout the years, the ’Rec” dance has been the most outstanding of the social activities in high school. As seniors, we look back and remember the wonderful times we’ve spent there on Friday evenings. Making new acquaintances and getting to know the old ones better will long remain in our memories. We fully appreciate the efforts of Chairman Eleanor Keefe and her committee. Each and every member of the commit- tee has worked hard to make these dances run smoothly. Mr. Johnson has also ably advised us and contributed a great deal. The Rec” is successfully sponsored and made possible by the Auxiliary Police of Arlington. They have provided us with the entertainment and record hops that we have enjoyed. We also pay tribute to the band, which has done a terrific job in supplying us with music for our dances.
