Some of the girls have exceptionally good voices and may put them to good use later on. From September 7 to March 9 the Freshmen were helped over the hard bumps of high school life by their class adviser, Mr. Campbell. Flowever, on the latter date Mr. Campbell found it necessary to discontinue his job of teaching at Bourne High School, and Mr. Jillson is now taking his place. We regret tha t future classes will not be able to enjoy the privilege of knowing Mr. Campbell. We also wish him all the luck in the world and hope that he will return to Bourne often. Their first year at Bourne High has been an experience that the Freshmen will never forget, and each one hopes that the coming years will be as enjoyable as the last.

Twenty-eight Canal Currents - 1951 The Class of 1954 T HIRTEEN score and seven days ago our teachers met and contended with a new class conceived in deviltry and dedicated to the proposition that they should be heard and not seen. Nevertheless, there proved to be quite a number of industrious students in the class of ’54, as the honor roll showed later. Many of them took their studies seriously and proved to the upperclassmen that they were not just another class, but a bunch of potential genuises. Their first class meeting was held on October 2, 1950 with Mr. Campbell super- vising. This day was especially important to three members of the class, for Dick Smith, Louis Papi, and Polly Norris were chosen president, vice-president, and secretary- treasurer, respectively. At this meeting the Freshmen also voted on the amount of class dues, which turned out to be twenty-five cents per month. Each autumn zillions of leaves fall to the ground, and this year several energetic Freshmen followed their example on the football field. Among these, three saw con- siderable action. Two guards, Wayne Regan and Ben Tobey, accompanied by Billy Haskell at center, exhibited their excellent football qualities, playing in the regular lineup. The next sport, basketball, introduced more Freshmen to the public eye. Those who attended the games enjoyed watching the second team, which consisted almost entirely of Freshmen. Those who made their debut in high school basketball were Dick Smith, Wayne Regan, John Robbins, Archie Rovatti, Jor- dan Phinney, Jackie Ladetto, and Wallace Alden. The girls also took an ac- tive interest in basketball. On the first team three forwards, Clara White, Judy Sorenti, and Nancy Kelly wrapped up many important points, and Meredith Muir played guard, representing her class on the second team. Another interest of the class is music. This year there were three Freshmen that be- longed to the Shawme Or- chestra. Anne Harrison, vio- lin; Benny Bigelow, violin; and James Atherton, flute.
