U21 aa af lgllafflffll imgggysi . . . was certainly an unusual one. Remember registration day? So many people it looked like a Sinatra fan line-up, but why not-more- pupils than the year before, and new teachers, too. Seeing all the fellows in the services roaming Brighton's halls certainly made us proud that our alma mater is taking on its share of the war, and looking at those nine gold stars on our service flag makes us hope it won't have to be taken down to add another star. Brighton generously emptied its pockets for Red Cross, the infantile paralysis fund, and the campaign to send the local paper to service boys and girls, to say nothing of those weekly bond and stamp drives.

Soccer certainly took the spotlight when we won the sectional crown. Playing in top form, our team defeated West at the sectionals. Oh, yes, remember that Brighton chose Dewey as the next President of the United States? We could call this The Year of the Big Storms . just imagine six whole days to loaf around -shoveling snow.

The basketball games--who could ever forget those crowds, those tied scores with one minute to play? Our ears are still ringing from the volume yell . It surely seemed to bring results-until that game with East Rochester. Tough luck for Captain john Donohue and his nghting teammates, and a sad moment in our year at Brighton. The tough part of all that snow and no coal was the curtailment of night activities-no dances, no Teen Canteen-just a drab existence! By the way, does anyone know what ever happened to the skating rink those energetic boys volunteered to keep clean? By word and picture we have recorded the high points of the past year. In the pages of the 1945 Crossroads we invite you to review with us our year at Brighton High. 6
