For us it was indeed a thrilling day. Bewildered and amazed, we selected some senior hero as our! idol. We wonder, now that we are seniors, if some of us are idols in the eyes of present freshmen. We spent a happy greenhorn year, although at ticket selling time, when our salesmanship showed slackness, we were a little ashamed. Our pleasant class adviser was Mr. Thomas Conley, but when duty called him away to a more important position, Miss Donilon was placed in his stead. Our sophomore and junior years found us with a little more assurance, for we were no longer the lowest classmen. We had no soph dance due to the gasoline shortage, so our first affair was our Junior Halloween dance, which proved a great success. Our fondest memories of these years lie in Miss Flanigan's bright smile and the happy voice of Mrs. Farrell. Our boys also began to be known for their athletic ability and their names appeared on the highlight list of every sport. We, too, began to feel the tightening hand of war, for many of our mates were joining different ranks or leaving for factory positions. We glory, too, in the fact that in our class were such in- tellectuals as Mary, Barbara, Steiner, Rawson and others. In September, 1944, we entered our senior year, the last step in our climb to the outside world. Senior activities began early in the year. Among the list of busy moments were the freshman dance, class rings and pictures, the Christmas dance, proms, senior play and graduation! We were a busy but happy lot. To our surprise we found that being seniors felt exactly like being members of other classes. P Now that the end has finally come, we find it a hard task, indeed, to say farewell. The name Burrillville High has been engraved in our hearts and we shall never forget the many happy moments spent within her walls. We leave our heartfelt thanks and gratitude, and we know that whatever the future holds, never shall we erase her memory. Sing ye for Burr- illville, and may she live forever. PAGE TWENTY-EIGHT
