Brom?iel.d Beacon On November 3, 1949 a group from Bromfield attended and enjoyed the Clark University Players' presentation of f'Othello. November 18 was the date of the Junior Class Dance held to raise funds for the Junior Prom. Music was furnished by Marty's Orchestra and the dance was enjoyed greatly. The annual Junior Promenade was held this year on March 31, 1950. The hall was cleverly decorated, and the music of Marty's Orchestra was enjoyed by all. The dance was a financial and social success. The Senior Class expresses thanks to all those who have helped to publish THE BEACON. This year a poll throughout the school was taken to determine Who's Who. Most Popular Girl ........
