Twency-four Canal Currents - 1950 JUNIORS S EPTEMBER eighth, 1949, found the Junior home room occupied by a new group of upper-classmen. After the usual hub-bub of the first day activities and the excitement of becoming re-acquainted with classmates, the new third year students settled down to the Bourne High School routine. Not long after the beginning of the month of October ,the class held its first meeting. This meet- ing was held primarily for the purpose of choosing class officers. They were elected as follows: President Leonard Sylvia Vice-president Stuart Small Secretary Gloria Gallerani Treasurer Shirley Knight Through the course of the year these officers have handled their respective positions very well, and the members of the Junior Class may feel assured that they are well represented. Once more everything began rolling along smoothly following the meeting. However, one bright day the Juniors received their class rings. As usual this caused quite a commotion, not only in the Jun- ior Class but also throughout the school. For a while some people had quite large collections. Wonder how come? There was very little time before the football season rolled around and the BHS gridiron was full of brawny Juniors. On the squad from the class were S. Small, J. Sorenti, R. Holman, J. Dixon, C. Brad- ford, L. Sylvia, R. Anderson, and B. O ' Rourke. With all of these Junior fellows on the team this past year, it might be said that Bourne High School’s football outlook is getting brighter. Football season soon came to a close and immediately following it the excitement of basketball de- scended over the school, for the girls as well as for the boys. Each and every afternoon they both prac- ticed dutifully and soon the teams were chosen by Coaches Holden and Butler. The girls from the Jun- ior Class on the Purple Wave ' s basketball team were P. Sorenti, M. Wallace, L. Tripp, G. Gallerani, S. Knight, J. Forrest, M. Robbins, and O. Kelly. Each squad was plentifully supplied with Juniors. Worthy of praise are these wonderful hoopsters on the boys’ team: R. Holman, J. Dixon, C. Brad- ford, R. Anderson, and B. O’Rourke. In addition, Stuart Small, another Junior, was the team’s student manager. It looks like Bourne High’s basketball teams will be of championship form next year since so many Juniors took part. Besides basketball there was another attraction for the girls. Miss Holden offered instruction in archery and tennis for the second year, and a large number of third-year girls participated. This train- ing has been wonderful for the girls and they feel that their time was put to good use. At this point, and to the consternation of alL Mr. Gray, the class adviser, called to the attention of the class the problem of next year’s class trip. Next year, when the Juniors become Seniors, ample funds must be available to finance the annual trip to New York and or Washington. After careful consider- ation, and after realizing the seriousness of the situ- ation, they decided to run paper drives throughout the rest of the year. Joe Sorenti was appointed chairman and the class set out whole-heartedly to increase the class’s Left to Right: L. Sylvia, S. Knight, G. Gallerani, S. Small
