Twenty-two Currents - 1949 Left to right ' . L. Ferretti, C. Thamalis, M. Rattray The Seniors A fter our final high school summer vacation we found ourselves once more under the shadows of Bourne High’s elm trees tall. Happily we returned to the so-called drudgery and boring routine of high school. With thoughtful and sad recollections of our previous high school days we turned once more to the more serious aspects of school life. Under the capable direction of the usual Senior Class adviser, Mr. Walter Stahura, we elected our class oflficers for the coming year. Lewis Ferretti was chosen president, Charles Thamalis was selected vice-president, and Peggy Rattray was elected secretary-treasurer. Our homeroom for the past year has been the study hall, which in the two previous years was re- served for larger Junior Classes. September afternoons found a great number of the young men and women of our class working out with the football and field hockey teams. The football squad’s final standing was greatly aided by its Senior members. The diligent practice of these boys as well as that of the athletically inclined female members of the class resulted in a substantial amount of participation in Bourne High’s athletic program. After the closing of the football and field hockey season we sponsored a Thanksgiving Day dance. Although we were all greatly held back by our unusually large Turkey Day appetites, the dance proved to be a wonderful social and financial success. Many murm urs of approval at the music provided by Jay Mando and his orchestra were overheard during the intermission and following the dance. As the basketball season rolled around many of our senior boys could be found every afternoon in the high school gym with Coach Butler. On the varsity squad from our class were Richard Anderson, David Handy, Roger Layton, Lewis Ferretti, Russell Burns, Charles Thamalis, Charles Harding, John Bigelow, and Allan Booth. Layton and Handy served the team as co-captains. Ronald Nowlan, an- other Senior, was the team’s manager. On the girls’ basketball team the Senior Class was represented very capably by Betty Downey, Elea- nor Harding and Ellen Norris. Queenie Soup’s On Junior Prom — 1948
