The people in the world are going through a period of unrest that can be settled only through the knowledge of current affairs throughout the world. The only way to gain adequate knowl- edge about these things is through study and it is up to the schools to provide these courses of study. All schools are faced with these.prob- lems now and it is the schools who will receive either the credit or the blame in future years. Returning veterans, anxious to take their places in the world of tomorrow, are returning to the studies that the war interrupted in the hope of learning things which will be of great value in their roles of being our future citizens. These returning veterans are face to face with a great many problems. There are those few, of course, who are too lazy to go to work, too lazy to take an interest in their studies and just go to school be- cause.through the G. I. Bill of Rights they are guaranteed financial aid in con- tinuing their previously interrupted edu- cations. These few will make it hard for those who are returning to school in a sincere effort to benefit themselves and humanity. Most of the schools are welcoming the veterans cordially and others with dis- trust as to what kind of students these men will make. In the not too far future the schools all over the country will be packed and all of these students must and should be taken care of. How are so many going to be taken care of? That is a question that must be answered soon and the sooner the better it will be for everyone concerned. Schools nowadays are much better prepared naturally to undertake this re- sponsibility: however, they do not have the courses necessary. Schools should study more about current affairs then most of them do. They should hold spe- cial courses which will help students to understand present world conditions as well as the affairs of fifty or a hundred years ago. If civilization is to advance, schools must advance, because it is only through the schools, through the human mind. that the present day situation can he taken care of. CONNIE CROSSMAN, 46. I WANT TO JOIN THE UNO Dear UNO: I want to join the UN. I am only one citizen of a country of 135,- 000,000 My country is a member of the United Nations Organization. That's good. But why can't I be a member, too? I know what your answer will be-that the UNO is not designed to take individ- ual citizens as members. Only govern- ments can be members. They participate through representatives on the Security Council, in the General Assembly, on the Economic and Social Council, the World Court, the Secretariat, I know. But I'm not satisfied. None of the Sections of the UN has a place for the individual citizen. Now I know that one begins to de- mand membership in an international or- ganization of this kind: one raises all kinds of questions. Many people think that we are not ready for world govern- ment. Harold Stassen who wants world government more than most people says that we are not ready. 4 THE CORONA Well, I still want to join the UN. Now right here someone says, How can you join the UN as an individual and still fulfill your duties in your own coun- try ? That question is worth looking at. National sovereignty means that your own government has control over your actions. It can make you go to war or it can keep you out of it. You have to pay taxes and assure other obligations to your government. That is fine. Why do I want to join the UN? VVell, you remember the League of Nations? The governments were members of that, but the people were not. Their only con- nection with the League was through their political leaders, and if these leaders were not very interested in the League there was no way for the people to keep a close connection with it. They could, of course, protest to their leaders, or vote them out of office. But votes are rarely cast on the basis of a single issue, espe- cially an issue like that of supporting an international organization. Now, I know, that at first, the part which the individual can play must be very smallg very limited. It must not conflict with his own country. It must not impair his loyalty or violate national sovereignty. A very limited part, how- ever, is better than none. No one has to scrap sovereign equal- ity to let me in. No one has to undo the work already done. just add a wing to that new building that they are planning 5 a wing with a door through which a plain man can walk and say I BELONG HERE.

Not espe- cially because she enjoyed her profession, but because it kept her in food, clothing, and her ancient, weather-beaten house, which was seven miles from town. On this particular Friday night in Jan- uary, she had worked late at the drafty country school house. As she gathered up her things to leave, she lit a kerosene lantern to guide her home, blew out the candles which were burning on her desk, and left. It was a two-mile walk to her home. There was no one living in the houses the whole distance. Miss Fillie hated the dark. More then hated it-she feared it. Of course, it wasn't sensible, she told herself, it was just that her imagination was too active, the result of living alone for nearly forty years. As she approached her house, she no- ticed that it had assumed a ghostly aspect in the shadowy darkness. She climbed the five steps which led to the porch and went around to the kitchen door at the side of the house. She started to turn the key when suddenly she halted, rigid and unable to move or even utter a syllable. There had been a Hash of light in the attic window. She was sure she had seen it, for a mere fraction of one second had it appeared. But it had been there and now it was dark again. Her first thought was to run, anywhere and as fast as it was possible for a human to travel, but then she remembered that not one person lived within two miles of her. It was mid-January and out of the question to think of her spending the night out of doors. While these thoughts raced wildly through her head, a decision came to her abruptly. She would stay. She reached inside her handbag she carried. Maybe it was because of her fear of the dark that she had bought the gun. Well, now she needed it. She quietly let herself in and started to take off her coat in the darkness. Sud- denly she was blinded by a bright light and a rough hand snatched her gun from her right hand. So the mistress of this mansion has come home, huh ?,' he demanded. Well, it's sure nice to see you. I'm going to be staying here tonight, Sis, and maybe for some time to come. You must be lone- some here, alone like. When Miss Fillie's eyes became used to the light, she saw that the man stand- ing opposite her was a dark, Latin type and he was holding two guns, one of them her own. My dear mister burglar, or murderer, or whatever you aref' Miss Fillie said quite firmly, You have no right in my house, but, of course, you know that. VV hat do you want here ? I told you, I want to stay here. Now are you going to ask me to eat, Mam, or P? Why, yes, Mr.--F Call me Smith. Yes, Mr. Smith, as a matter of fact, I'm hungry, too. Now you sit right down in the parlor and make yourself to home and I'll fix us a quick meal. Do you like sugar in your coffee ? Yes, two spoonsful, and make it snap- py, sister. THE CORONA 13 As Miss Fillie went to the kitchen, her mind was racing. She had a plan, and it must work. Two hours later she sat tensely on her horsehair sofa, awaiting the arrival of the police. Now at last she saw headlights coming around the turn. They came on steadily and halted at her front door. As she opened the door and saw the three policemen entering she felt an im- measurable relief. You all right, Miss Fillie ? asked Flynn, the oldest of the group. Yes, I'm in perfect health. The man is in the parlor. 'fNow wait a minute, Flynn exclaimed as he saw the bound man on the floor. Don't tell me you did this by physical force. Say! that face! That's the fellow they've got that reward up for. Tell me Mis' Adams, how did you do this? Well, as I said over the phone, he was here when I got home. But that is all you told us over the phone. VVhat's the rest of the story? Give the lady a chance, sir, spoke the younger man. As I was saying, Miss Fillie con- tinued, he wanted food so I told him I'd get some right off. I went to the kitchen and made coffee. I had a small bottle of laudenum in the medicine chest. I keep it for toothache. Now you know that laude- num is sweet, and Mr. Smith liked sweet coffee. So I put some in his coffee and made it strong to cover the fragrance of the drug. Mr. Smith is now sleeping it off. USO that's the story! You're sure a fast thinking one, Mis' Fillie, Flynn re- marked. Let's get this man back to prison now. Good night, ma'am. Hlust one minute. Mr. Flynn, you spoke of a reward. Miss Fillie said. Sure enough. This fellow broke jail last week. Haven't you seen the pictures in town ? No, I haven't, confessed Miss Fillie, f'You see, I rarely go to town. I have no car. Well, this will be pleasing enough to you ma'am, so listen close. That reward is fifteen hundred dollars l Land sakes, this is too much for me. VVhat will I do with it? just a minute. I know what I'll do. I'll move in town away from this ghostly neighborhood, and I'1l buy a car. No more midnight walks for me, Sir. XVINNIFRED HILTON, '47. l-.ilq SIX DEATHS AND A CHIMNEY It was a beautiful day. The birds sang gaily from their lofty perchesg the trees swayed gently in the windg the Heecy white cumulus clouds traveled peacefully across the heavens .... An old man was resting quietly in the cool, inviting shade of a gaint oak. just visible across the valley was a lone stone chinmey of great height, surrounded by weeds. That was all, just the great chim- ney and the weeds. The only moving person in sight was a young man of twenty-live or more years, the summer guest of the old man. The young man walked quietly up to the bench on which the older man was sitting. Uncle Rufe, he said. The old man looked up. Uncle Rufe, what is that chimney over there? How did it get there? The old man began his story in a voice that hardly seemed to break the peaceful quiet. As he spoke, the stillness began to become oppressive. Son, that chimbly is all the' is left to remember a turrable calamity that happened over a hundred years ago. My Dad tol' me the story, an' I'll tell it to you jes' like he tol' it to me. A long time ago, Jed Burbank built a house on that spot an' moved his fambly 14 THE CORONA into it. The' was three kids, not any of em over twelve, an' Jed an' his wife. He was a happy man, had his own garden, a cow, an' two pigs. One night, the neigh- bors heard this turrable screechin' an' Wailin' noise. The next day, they eyed the house, wonderin' what in tarnation it could'a be'n. They thought it was kinda funny, but Jed nor nobuddy in his fambly showed up that day. That night, the house caught atire. They got the volun- teer fire department out, but they couldn't save nuthin'. The thing that kinda skeered the people was the fact that they didn't find no bodies. The remains of the furniture was all there, and the bodies of the cow and pigs. But nary a human body did they find. They sent to the gover'ment for someone to come out and investigate. This was done, and the man they sent Went into the ruins about seven o'clock one night, and nobuddy ever saw him ag'in. Well, jist about this time, the people was gittin' pretty skeered about it. They wouldn't nobuddy go near the house for years, an' it's all growed up with weeds an bresh. I never did put no stock in stories that's be'n spread around about its bein, ghosts that did it, but l ain't goin' monkeyin' around them dig- gin's, either. Sitting there, in the oppressive still- ness, neither man spoke for some time. Then the younger man broke the quiet with the words, 'Tm going up there to- morrow. The startled old man almost lost his pipe. I don't put any stock in the ghost stories, either, and Tm going up there and try to find out just what did happen. But look, son. interposed the old man, better men than you has gone up there and paid for their curiosity with their lives. If you're smart, you'll stay away from there. The younger man made no answer, but sat in silence until dark. Upon rising the next day, the young man began to make preparations to go to the opposite side of the valley. After he had eaten his breakfast, he packed a lunch and staitezl. The day seemed terribly long and dragged out to the sorrowful old man, who was sure that his young friend would never return. At six o'clock, he had not arrived. Seven o'clockg still no sign of him. Seven o'clock-just getting dark-the stillness was ominous. Suddenly, the air was 'rent by a screaming and wailing, as if the dead had come out of their graves to decry their fate. The old man was al- most prostrate with fear and apprehen- sion. The long, dreary, ominous hours passed, or rather dragged, by. Eight o'clock, no sign of the young mang nine o'clock, ten o'clock, Uncle Rufe began to prepare for bed, although he knew he couldn't sleep. Eleven o'clock, twelve o'elock, the old man lay sleepless in the oppressive still- ness. Shortly after one o'clock, the door opened and the weary young man strag- gled into the house. He was not injured, but his appearance showed that he had been through a harrowing experience. lle went up to the old man's bedroom. I've found out what happened to those people, and what caused the wailing noise Y was his startling announcement. VVhen the old man recovered from his astonishment, he said, Tell me about it. lVhat was that wailing at about seven o'clock? VVhat happened to the people? VVhy clidn't the gover'ment man come back? Wfhy- One question at a time, please. said the voung man.. I went up to the place in the morning, and went straight to that old Stone chimney, because it WaS that THE CORONA 15 which attracted my attention in the first place. I noticed that the ash door which was used for cleaning out the soot and ashes was open, but I didn't pay much attention to the fact. I decided to look around the place a bit and found a cellar entrance. There was a terribly musty odor to the place, but I went in just the same. I couldnit see very well, because there were no windows in the cellar, but I remembered what you told me about the inspector never returning. I struck a match and looked around cautiously. Even then, I nearly fell into a large ex- cavation in the middle of the floor. I can tell you, I hurried out of there before I struck any more holes in the Hoof. I went to the next town and bought a flash- light and got back about lunch time. I ate my lunch and took the flashlight and went back into the cellar. I looked down the hole and saw six skeletons. This, then, was where they had gone. I wondered why .Ied hadn't known about the hole in the floor and looked around it. I didn't find anything to tell me, so I went out- doors. I walked for some distance from the house, and suddenly I tripped over something I couldn't see. I got up and kicked at the place where I had tripped, and the ground opened up within a foot of my feet. I had sprung the trap door that had covered the entrance to an old secret passageway. I went into the pas- sageway to follow it to the end, and I came upon the bodies again. The ground had caved in over the passageway when one of the family was over it. and he had been killed in the fall. All of the rest went down to find out what was the trouble and apparently more ground had caved in, and all of them were killed. The inspector, of course, didn't know about the hole anywav, and when he en- tered the cellar, he fell into the hole and was killed also. I couldn't End any evi- dence to tell why the house burned, so I guess it was just started accidentally from a spark caught by the wind. Final- ly, that screaming and wailing was caused by the door in the chimney that I told you about. Apparently Jed kept that door open, so that the ashes would fall out and he wouldn't have to clean out the chimney. At any rate, I closed that door, and, as the wind was blowing, that howl- ing and wailing began. I came to the con- clusion that it was caused by the wind blowing across the top without any air coming up through. You know, when you blow across the top of a bottle or an empty shell, it makes a whistling or moaning sound. VVell, this was the same idea, only on a larger scale. Old Jed had probably closed the door, and then opened it again on account of the noise a short time before he died. Well, I'l1 be a monkey's uncle! said Uncle Rufe. RONALD MURCH, '47. ONE CAN MAKE TWO , It was raining outside, one of those very dreary days that remind a person of a foggy day in London, and gathered around me in the old living room of an ancient house were a few friends who were discussing different people, as people many times will do, telling a few stories. At last it came my turn and I began this one. It was a beautiful spring day in April in the year 1859, one of those years be- fore the Civil War, when slaves were trying their best to get through to Canada and freedom. Ben, a young man and Savanna, a girl, both Negroes and around eighteen years of age set out on the long journey to Canada. Of course, they did not realize what hardships they would have to put up with, although Savanna's old mammy told her that she should stop 16 THE CORONA and think before leaving, for if they were to be caught they would be beaten and sold off at a very low price. But Ben and Savanna, completely absorbed in each other, started off. They left Col. South- land's at midnight as previously planned and said goodbye to Georgia with re- joicing hearts, a few tears in their eyes, and a smile on their faces. 'fThey travelled for weeks by night ex- posed to the cold and with barely enough to eat. They had faith and plenty of it, both in God and in themselves. They knew that they should have faith, faith in the one person that could see them through, God. After weeks of travelling they found themselves in the State of Maine, in a small village a few miles from Portland. The next day they came upon a small, white, Yankee farmhouse settled in a huge field surrounded with trees. 'KW ell, this farmhouse looked friendly enough and since they were in 'northern territory' they decided to call in and see if they could do a little work for some food. But they did not quite make it, for from the long trip, Savanna fell at Ben's feet in a faint. Ben picked her up and carried her into the barn. Then he went for some water. Poor Savanna never did come to, for she died in the night. The next morning the farmer hearing the sound of a person sobbing went into the barn and found Ben with little Savan- na in his arms, crying his poor heart out as if his world had come to an end, say- ing that Canada was no place for him if he did not have Savanna. Ben told the farmer his story and then died joining Savanna, and his out into together under a huge boulder on a day in june, while the birds were singing, and the sky was blue with the lilacs blooming in fra- grant profusion. The other day while strolling across the helds to the place where Ben and Savanna were buried, I came to the big boulder and behold, but what should I find! That big boulder had been split in half, perfectly, by the years of weather, rain, wind and storms. It seemed as though it had been done purposely as if to signify two grave stones. Around these two stones are flowers and directly over the graves bending down as if to touch the boulders are two lilac bushes, one for Ben and the other for Savanna. You see, friends, Mr. Johnson was my great grandfather and I have been told the story many times by my grandmother who was five years old at the time and just barely old enough to remember the episode. g The farmer, a Mr. Johnson, family, took Ben and Savanna the back field and buried them 'ffivery year on June 9th, it always passes through my mind that this is the anniversary of the day Ben and Savanna were buried in our back field. You can see the graves from the window in my bedroom if you Wish to look. Later it was found that there was a reward of 31,500 for both of them of- fered by Col. Southland of Boneventura, Georgia. I have often wondered if Ben and Savanna weren't happier in heaven then if they had got to Canada and their freedom.

FOOTBALL Bridgton had its first taste of football last fall for several years. After 1942, the sport was dropped because of lack of material and transportation difficulties. This year Bridgton Academy and Bridg- ton High School joined forces under Coach Fabello and a successful team re- sulted. Out of seven games played only one game was lost and one tied. Our tough- est opponent was Edward Little of Au- burn who beat us once and held us the next game to a 0-0 tie. L. Moulton of the high school starred in the back field throughout the season. Those who won their letters were: Moulton, Zorrilla, Sinert, Kodis, Thor- hurn, Fillebrown, Boutilier, Kelley, Hamlin, Rubin and Robbins. Next year there are hopes of Bridgton High School having a football team of its own, to be coached by Mr. Stampon.

Games of special interest were those played with ifryeburg Academy, which were won by a tight margin and one at Oxford, which found the opponent ahead at the end of the half, by a score of 2 to 0.

Male VOICES are greatly appreciated and it 1S hoped that next year we will have as many if not more. The club officers were elected in Sep- tember. They were: n Doris Libby ....ii..,..,.,.,...,....,...i. President Francis Alexander .........,.....,.. Treasurer During the yearly National Education Week Program which the high school put on, the Glee Club sang Holy Seasonlf, which added greatly to the holiday spirit. When the picture The Bells of St. Mary was playing in Portland, the members of the Glee Club under the care of director, Miss Ryder, hired a bus and went to see it. They had been learn- ing the selection The Bells of St. Mary. This excursion was open to the pupils of the school and many took advantage of it. The Glee Club is preparing for an ex- hibition, to show their progress at the May P. T. A. meeting. They will also sing at the graduation exercises. lil-. COMMERCIAL CLUB The Commercial Club held its first meeting in the high school building on October 3, 1945, to draw up a new con- stitution and to elect officers. The object of the club is to encourage co-operation and good fellowship among the students and to regulate commercial activities in the school. Meetings are held every two weeks during the school year, usually the Hrst and third Thursdays of each month, at 7:00 P. M. Membership of the club is limited to any student tak- ing at least one commercial subject. The following officers were elected: Presi- dent, Bourdon Scribner, Vice President, Marion Linscottg Secretary, Laura Mc- Allister, Treasurer, George Keene, and Club Reporter, Melvin Boutilier. At our second meeting in the gymna- sium we chose two committees to be re- sponsible for the success of the meetings. The program committee consists of Mel- vin Boutilier, Owen Smart, Marion Lin- scott, and Edna Stevens. The Refresh- ment Committee is made up of Everett Robbins, Lawrence Kenison, Alice Went- worth, and Edna Kilgore. It was at this meeting that we decided to publish a monthly paper, using as a symbol the orange and black butterfly called the Monarch and thus naming our paper the Monarch, It was planned that the pa- per be published the second Wednesday of each month and the first issue came out on November 14, 1945. A point system has been established by which members of the staff may work for letters or pins. In order to earn a letter a minimum of 70 points must be credited to your name. Points are given according to the amount of reporting or actual work done. We plan to have orange chenille letters, 7 inches in height, with a black quill through them to signify our time spent as reporters, editors and the like. We have held other meetings at two weeks' intervals throughout the year fea- tured by discussions of club policies and work on the club paper. These meetings are usually followed by some entertain- ment such as skating or dancing and ac- companied by refreshments. 22 THE CORONA The Student Council gave the Com- mercial Club a chance to take charge of cue assembly during the year. VVe chose the month of February and on February 27, we sponsored a Truth or Conse- quences show with Ronald Murch as an- nouncer, advertising Tootsie Fudge. Other members of the club took part in the fun and all contestants were rewarded with squares of Tootsie Fudge. A week-end camping trip has been sug- gested to reward the members of the M ouairch Staff who have worked so faith- fully to keep the paper going and to earn money for the club. The following com- mittee of six was chosen to work out plans for the trip: Melvin Boutilier, George Keene, Bourdon Scribner, Edna Stevens. Doris Packard, and Edna Kil- gore. Miss Dorothea Dowell was elected to serve as faculty advisor. i. .ll.. FRENCH CLUB The first meeting of the Le Cercle Francais was held at the high school building on Monday evening, October 1, 1945, with an attendance of eighteen members. The following officers were elected: 'President. VVinnifred Hilton, Vice President, James Plunkett: Secre- tary, George Hilton, and Treasurer, Bar- bara Farris. A program committee consisting of Patricia Lombard, Ronald Murch and Paul VValker was appointed to work with the officers to plan a program for the year. It was voted to let former members who do not take French this year con- tinue membership in the club if they wish to do so. The main object of the club is to pro- mote interest in French customs and ideas. Many things are discussed at these meetings which. due to lack of time, could not be emphasized in the classroom. The programs of the club, though of- ten educational, are carried on in such a manner as to bring enjoyment to all who attend. Among the forms of entertainment are French dances, games, relays, short plays, and oral topics on subjects of interest to the club as a whole. STUDENT COUNCIL The first meeting of the Student Coun- cil was held inthe library- on September 19, 1945. The new officers were elected as follows: President, Llewellyn Moul- ton: Vice President, Melvin Boutilier, and Secretary, Beverly Rand. The object of this organization is to form a representation of the student body which functions in the discussion, promotion, and control of student activi- ties. The council consists of eleven members who are elected by ballot in their respec- tive classes at the beginning of each school year. The following are this yearls members. Seniors: Llewellyn Moulton, Constance Crossman, Owen Smart, Donald Gray, and Elinor Leavitt, Jun- iors: Carleen Libby, Melvin Boutilier, and Beverly Rand: Sophomores: Betty Austin and Paul Walker: and Freshman: jack Powers. Meetings are held every two weeks during the school year but special meet- ings may be called at any time. The principal is the advisor and a member ar-offiicio of the council. He has no vote in any proceedings but has the power of veto over any unwise decision of the council. Early in the year Maynard Craig was elected by the council as Co-manager for the B. A. and B. H. S. football team. Constance Crossman was elected for girls' business manager in basketball and Bourdon Scribner for the boys. THE CORONA 23 Some of the money from the annual magazine sales was used to buy a net to protect the stage at the gym. Also the letters for the basketball players will be paid for out of this fund. Some of the duties of the council are regulating assemblies and dances during the year. The record committee, a part of the council, has responsibility for pur- chasing new records for dances and tak- ing care of the ones we already have. SENIOR PLAY On Thursday night, February 28, 1946, the Mayfair Theatre was filled to the doors long before 8:00 o'clock by the en- thusiastic onlookers who nearly rolled in the aisles at some of the doings of the Brannigans. Scudders, Campbells, and Tapps in the three-act farce-comedy en- titled The Campbells are Coming. This was a royalty play written by Jay Tobias and presented by the Senior Class. As we glance back over this eventful evening we find George Keene as the leading man in the role of Jeffrey Scud- der who plays as a dirty hillbilly in an attempt to frighten away Kaye's fiance. His leading lady was Edna Kilgore as Kaye Brannigan. a sophisticated snob who was fresh out of college. Ma Brannigan, a shrewd and energetic country woman of sixtv, whose life is completely wrapped uo in her grandchil- dren, was played by Marguerite Bryant. Cvrus Scudder, olayed by Bourdon Scribner. was a pleasant-looking man with a breezy manner and a heart of gold who wanted to marry Ma. His manner of action brought many laughs from the audience. Mrs. Augusta Campbell and her son Kingston were played by Laura McAllis- ter and Owen Smart. Augusta was a verv aristocratic domineering type of person and her actions often caused an air of sophisticated boredom on the part of Kingston. Betty. and Dick Brannigan, Ma's grandchildren, were played by Edna Stevens and Carlton Edwards. Both did their part very well. Catalpa Tapp, the awkward hillbilly servant, was played exceptionally well by Audry Oberg. Bildad Tapp, Catalpa's father, was 3 tall gaunt hillbilly who was discovered to be the sophisticated Augusta's brother, Was Played by Lawrence Kenison. Miss Angie Reed, teacher of English, Wastvery considerate and co-operative in helping to make this play a SUCCQSSI 'The High School Orchestra under the direction of Thomas Fitton furnished music between acts. Mrs. Arlene McLeod and Mr. Nelson Seaman very kindly assisted with the make-up of the characters. The success of our play depended very much UPON the help of George Hilton and Sheldon Prentice who procured and arranged the scenery and properties with the assistance of Walter Eichles, Llewel- lyn Moulton, Merton Leighton, and A1-- nold Gardner. Richard Dietrich had charge of sound effects and to these seven boys as well as to the manager of the theatre, Mr. Heathe, we wish to extend our most. sincere thanks Others nected with the play were Constziglge Crossman and Frances Alexander as prompters and Muriel Kimball as busi- ness manager. Winnifred Hilton, Rubie Haughn, Marion Linscott, and Mar'ori Blake served as ushers, 'I e The profit which was made will be used to help defray the graduation ex- penses.
