But We'll all see it through. We do not know We'll miss the teachers Just how to greet it, . And all their scoldings Shall It be tears, 01' Smiles? On the long' road through life. Though many W111 follow As knowledge and truth us, as many have past, . Theyfll never love - Shall light our way to success, Ag Wgve loved- We'll give out last fare-thee-well to Our Canton High.

Carpenter, '40 zeggg THE-ECHO ,Statistics Time: 1945 Occasion: Reunion of the Class of 1940. Taking a glance over the Echo of 1940, many happy memories have been brought back. How can anyone of us ever forget the Senior Class Play Leave It To Mother, with Betty Shannon and Bud Milligan taking off top honors as best actress and actor. As you remember, Ethel Gelpke and Jimmy Burgun were voted the Eiost attractive couple of our class and they are still holding true to their onors. Carolyn Sawyer, Mary Johnson, Tony Ammendolia and Sam Sarra were voted as the most musical members of our class, and we hope that tonight they will renew those memories with a few musical selections. Our class babies, Phyllis Lowry and Hacker Whitty, who were only sixteen when they graduated, are now twenty-oneg whereas Eleanor Mor- rell and Sandy Whidden, the oldest members of our graduating class, are now twenty-four. Mary Johnson and Jackie Graham were all dolled-up as usual, for as you know they were voted the best dressed of our class. Olive Griffin and Joe Hallett come in second for that title. We wonder it' Arthur Sweetman and Ruth Hiltz are still as sur- prising as they were five years ago. We never knew what they were go- ing to do next, and even the word surprising doesn't fully describe them. It seems good to hear the merry voices of Yvonne Fitzpatrick and Dick McLeod. As you remember, they were voted the noisiest members of our class. And we do mean noisy. Ruth Hiltz C ! I I J and Arthur Sweetman were voted as the bashful members of our class. However, we think we know them better than that, and we would say - - , well, we'd just say, get to know them as well as we do. Will anyone ever forget the Senior Class Banquet? We had to place Rosa Dardano and Jimmy Burgun at one end of the table and Rose Murphy and Bud Milligan at the other end, since they are the best-mannered mem- bers of our class, as for the others, well - - . Although Dorothy Guerrin and Dick Morrison were voted as the most conceited members of our class, we-'re sure by this time that every- one's opinion has changed, because if everyone really knew Dot and Dick they couldn't possibly say they were conceited. We know Esther Adams and Alfie Crowd are having a wonderful time tonight, since as the jolliest of the class, they have always succeeded in keeping us all in high spirits. Gloria Pozzo was voted as our class flirt, and we wonder what a difference of tive years has made. Our class shiel: is none other than Hinky Kelly. Betty Shannon and Sis Galligan as the cutest members of our class, are still holding their titles. June Sawyer and Dick Morrison hold the honor of being the most etlicient members of the Statistics Troupe. Mary Sheehan and Jackie Graham were voted as the most popular members of the class. Kay Sullivan and Hacker Whitty came in second for the title. Our four years of high school would certainly have been dull, if we didn't have Carolyn Sawyer and Frank Carpenter to keep us in high spirits with their witty sayings which have given them the title as being the wittiest. Joan Pesaturo and Duncan MacKiern:in were voted as the quietiest members ol' our class, T H E' E' C H O gg 27 Honors for being the most athletic went to Kay Sullivan and Hacker Whitty with Ruth Waterfield and Dick McLeod coming in a close second. Usually English has been voted the pet hate of every class, but our class has to be different - so English has been unanimously selected as the favorite subject of our class. Glenn Miller is still the favorite orchestra and in a few minutes you will hear their melodious tunes. Of course, the dancing will be led by Dot Guerrin, Billy Adams, May Galligan and Tony Ammendolia, the dancers of our class. 1 think we'd better close the Echo of 1940 and listen to what Barbara Stanwyck and Mickey Rooney, the class's favorite movie actress and actor, have to say. They were only too glad to be present at our reunion! I l After all, most of the other speakers were as boring as usual, so we're glad Mary Sheehan, Hacker Whitty and Duncan MacKiernan, those clever people of our class, remembered to bring their 1940 Echo with them. Time to go home so soon? Well, here's hoping we have another reunion next year, 1946. Mary Johnson Mary Sheehan Glass will ln accordance with the wishes of the members of this Class of 1940 of Canton High School, we give to you now their last desires for the disposal of their personal and cherished properties, in a document which reads as follows: We, the Class of 1940 of Canton High School, being of sound mind and memory do make this our last will and testament in the manner fol- lowing, this is to say: First: To Mr. Anketell, the Class of '40 extends their great appre- ciation for his guidance and understanding during our stay here and also wishes him success in all his future activities.

Jean Strickland James Brown Attorneys-at-Law. 29 gg gg ,H E C Hg0gg gg A Qlass 'Prophecy A hush fell over the talkative, turbulent grouphas an elderlY. W0m1m rose to speak. Even now, thirty years after the hrst banquet 111 1940, she carried herself with the same dignity and bearing of the teacher whose gracious manner and wisdom inspired us to climb to the highest rung of the ladder of success. Introductions were unnecessary, for each and every member of the former class of '40 had immediately recognized her as Mrs. Dana. ' 1 As I gaze around the room, she began, it isn't difficult to recognize you. The years have changed youg time has given you experience, pa- tience, and understanding, but to me you are still the happy-go-lucky youth of '4O. I think it would be 11ice to discover what each of you has been doing since graduation. She turned- to the rather serious-faced boy on her left, whose glamour boy personality might have won him fame as a screen star, if he had not let his intense, profound fascination' for history domineer his life and turn him to another road of success. As he rose to speak Mrs. Dana threw an electric switch. As each person present at the banquet rose at his place, a few flashes of important in- cidents in his life passed in review on a screen before us. This new type of vision machine was the invention of Dunk Mackiernan, the scientist of our class, whose life had bee11 spent delving into the mechanisms of all kinds of such machines. lNow to get back to the fellow who rose to speak.l On to the screen came a picture of Harvard College, followed by pictures of the history classes, Suddenly a familiar face beamed out and we realized that it was Professor Brown - Jimmy to us! After this there was a picture of Jimmy - who was still a bachelor - walking with his favorite girl, June Sawyer. June, it seems, was working i11 Mr. Anketell's office in place of Miss Ahearn, wl1o had just resigned. After Jimmy had finished his speech a11d sat down, a tall girl started from her chair. For a Willie we were puzzled as to what the picture on the screen meant. i It was merely a picture of a masked man o11 a white horse - and the victrola on the machine chanted the overture to William Tell. Then we remembered that Rosa Dardano had obtained a job on the radio in an indirect manner by singing the Lone Ranger's Chant - H1-O-SIIVQFI .The.tall, bashful president of our class got up next. Pictures of engineering school and honors won by him, followed by a wedding sce11e with orange blossoms and strains of Lohengrin appeared on the screen. iA bealutiirul girl was marchving down the altar to meet Buddy. A closer ooi s .owed that the girl was the famed artist, whose drawings were 111 every magazine throughout the country, Gloria Pozzo, Buddy told us filet gfhf?V YVGVQ Verv happy' together in their modernistic ho11se which he nad built ,lust recently. When one of our ex-football heroes arose to speak, a picture of hun- dreds of thousands of pennies and picture of a girl came on. We realized that it signified that Harlhnger at last had saved enough money to marry his dream-girl! Next followed pictures of airplanes, a crack-up, and a 11ew high school, as another girl arose. Anne, it seems, had opened an aviation school. One day she had swooped down a little too close to mother earth klllfl had clipped off' a hunk ol' Canton lligh. People always claimed it was not an accident - but it was a good way of getting a new school -- anyhow! Dick Morrison slowly got 11p from his chair. l'ictures ol' a blue swan and three or four girls appeared before us. Dick had opened a new night cl11b in Canton The Blue Swan, with Mary Calligan as bouncer, Olive Criffiii as hostess. and Madeline Lowry as the flirtatious liat-check girl. so THEMECHO Esther Adams, Dorothy McDermott, and Shirley Stone worked as chorus girls in the floor show. What a bevy of beautiful girls! The efficient responsible ex-president of Student Government, Ethel, arose. On the screen came pictures of Simmons College, followed by those of a dietitian, and finally a home in Hollywood with her illustrious actor-husband - William Milligan. Next, a pretty blond girl stood up. Immediately a picture of the Toonerville train flashed on. Someone beside me whispered that after Ruth Hiltz had inherited a million dollars she bought the train so she could drive it. Everyone in town was talking about the way she drove it out from Boston, leaning out the cab Window and singing loudly .at the top of her voice. It seemed that the older generation of Canton dis- approved of the way she was acting. Eleanor Morrell had been unable to attend our banquet as she was tied up with an engagement in Boston. We were told that she, at last, had crashed the pearly gates of Metropolitan Opera, and could now be heard anytime we had the money or patience to sit and listen to Lohengrin, La Traviata or La Tosca, fand to think once we could listen to her free of chargell Tony Ammendolia had also been unable to attend as he was direct- ing these operas as musical conductor. He had gone to Boston University College of Music and had received such a thorough education he had been demanded for the job he now filled. A graceful young girl stood up. A picture of dramatic .school and a gasoline station appeared before us. Dotty Guerrin had gone to dramatic school. but had then opened a gasoline station because she made more money. Her silvery voice and pleasing personality had increased her gas sales immensely. Then a picture of a streamlined theater was projected onto the screen. Ruth Graham, who had ushered at the former Strand Theater, was now owner. She had abolished forever the system that forced grade BH pictures to be played with major productions. Rose Murphy and Mary Sheehan now worked there as ushers. They looked very neat indeed, going down the aisle in their streamlined gowns, as they ushered people merrily to their seats. Two people now pushed back their chairs to rise. Yvonne and Dick MacLeod, finding that their voices made an excellent team had joined, and after a Major Bowes program had obtained a radio iob. Ralph Mas- ciarelli and Tony Pavadore worked for them as sound effect men. A picture of a kindergarten school came next. Marionne Flower had opened it with Dorofthy Priluck helping to run it. They both agreed that Caroline Sawyer's twins were the most adorable children they had ever seen. Natalie Haynes C expert typist and stenographer, thanks to the cap- able. cooperative instruction of our C. H. S. teachersl stood up. Pic- tures of the Presidential ofhce, and then a wedding scene went onto the screen. Nat had worked several years as secretary to the President of the United States, but finding that two could live as cheaply as one, had gaily tripped to the altar in a style unequalled by anyone else. Frank made an excellent President - as well as a husband, so Natalie proudly boasted. Mary Johnson told us that for several years she had been unable to decide what to do. Finally, inspired by Mr, Dowson's English IV class, she became a teacher - pictures of this were also shown. Photographs showed us the new housing development in Ponkapoag, and a jolly, well-dressed man ringing doorbells. Hallett had found that the only way he could work and be happy was to become a salesman for Model T Homes, lnc. Rolling rhythm heat out, while picture: of a ballroom appeared. Billy Adams, whose athletic build had infatuated countless girls of the ,,,.f- , C. , ,M W ,, , Tl! U 5.9 1LQ.,.e.r- - 4, .-.---H.. - -..33 lower classes in Canton High, now drew in a number of female dance aspirauts for his new school of dancing. Richard Sarra was in charge of the orchestra. . Paul Keleher, famous baseball and football star, was pitching balls for the Green Cardinals, which threatened to revolutionize baseball throughout the country. His very dependable, capable manager was none other than Alfi Crowd, who had found plenty of experience in this life at C. H. S. That carefree, peppy girl, who could stir up laughter in the dullest class arose. Piotures of many books flashed on. Betty Shannon had be- come a famous authoress whose books were guaranteed to get you out of the gloomiest moods. Penny had obtained a job as head of the street department, because of his past learning in dear old Alma Mater. Habit and sentiment kept him from getting any other kind of job. A bachelor's home appeared. Sweetman had opened it because of his intense dislike for the opposite sex. His steady boarders were Loren Kelley, George Roache, and James Farrell. Pictures of a fire and an engine racing toward it come on. Arnold Eardley, Tom Griffin, and Copley had taken over the Fire Department. The only trouble, Tom told us confidentially, was the domineering super- vision of Anna McGrathg and Joan Pesaturo, who insisted on hanging on back and going to every fire, making a general nuisance of herself. Whidden arose. Pictures of a new high-powered car came on the screen. Whidden had invented it, and if and when traffic became too con- gested, it opened its wings and became an airplane. Scenes of a beautiful girl in a sarong became visible on the screen. As we studied it carefully we saw it resembled Ruth Waterfield. Ruth had grown her curly locks, donned a sarong, and was now giving Dotty Lamour some pretty stiff competition. Now, views of a wide, ranging ranch appeared with horses, cow- boys, and all the trimmings. Our friend, Carmino Porcaro, had developed a liking for riding in high school and, as a result, bought the ranch. Mar- cella told me frankly that she didn't share her husband's liking for rid- ing. She always seemed to spend more time off the horse than on. Pictures of a drug store came next. Behind the counter were two exceptionally pretty girls. One was Anna Ronayne - the other, Dot Gibson. Their super-specialty was slinging sodas to each other as they prepared them. The manager, Joe Veiga, didn't seem to mind as long as they didn't mess the place up, at least that's what he had told the girls. Surgery scenes with two girls dressed in white appeared. Auldice and Kay were in the middle of a very delicate operation. Auldice and Kay told us that only once did .they leave a pair of scissors inside a patient. Another seat was empty. Ruth MacDougall had been unable to attend because Junior had been ill, and she didn't want to risk it. Views of Woodmanis chicken farm were shown next. Woodman still played his harmonica to put his chickens to sleep nights. Suddenly a cloud of white dust appeared' as a picture. We couldn't see what it was - and then Sweetman's head appeared. He was now em- ployed as black-board eraser's boy. He gave them such a vigorous clap- ping that I personally felt sure he'd wear them out. Jack Graham's life was swiftly reviewed on the screen. Athletic awards. cups, and blue ribbons, followed by his marriage to a very adorable girl whom he had met at Canton - or rather, Ponkapoag -- were parts of his life. For several years, the machine showed, Jean Strickland went around with a dark, good-looking fellow whom she later married. Soon after she was divorced, her husband insisting that she threw the bread she made at him. lt was so hard, he argued, that it put him in the hospital for weeks. THE ECHO And last but not least, Burgun, my secretary, and I had traveled in Eupore for many years. Our gift 130 mankind was our successful assas- sination of Hitler and Goeringg and our escape from the firing squad was due only to the quickness of Anne and her super-special airplane! p 1 A P. Lowry, '40. J. Burgun, '40 Glass oyfistory One bright September morning eighty-three new Freshmen, eager, ex- pectant, but rather timid, entered the portals of Canton High School, facing the brand new experience of new friends, new knowledge, and a new life. 5 'After organization in the home rooms, we elected our year's leaders: John Howard as President, John Rowe as Vice President, Ethel Gelpke as Secretary, and Thomas Whitty as Treasurer. Ruth Graham, James Burgun, and Ethel Gelpke were elected to represent the class in the Student Council. Two new teachers, Miss Kavanaugh and Miss Mah-oney, entered school with us this year. Many of our numbers were competent and successful members of the football team, baseball team, orchestra, and glee club. After an uneventful but happy year as Freshmen, we eagerly moved up one rung on the class ladder to assume the slightly more important position, as Sophomores, able now to dictate to the new Freshmen. Results of the elections showed Albert Reynolds as our new class President, Rita Toomey as Vice President, Olive Griffin as Secretary, and Anthony Aimmendolia as Treasurerg also RichardSarra and Ethel Gelpke as Student Council repre- sentatives. This year saw no class activities but a great participation in athletics, many of our classmates starring on the football, track, and girls' hockey teams, and being the recipients of letters at the annual A. A. Ban- quet in January. We lost one teacher this year, Miss Prew, but acquired two new ones, Mr. Dowson and Miss Roach. September of 1938 saw us fewer in numbers but greater in our newly acquired prestigeg we were now upperclassmen and could lord it over all but those stately and dignified t'?J occupants of Room I. After a two weeks' snow storm of nomination papers and ballots, and an exciting new muni- cipal type of elections, we found ourselves with the following oliicers: Richard Sarra, President: Thomas Whitty, Vice President: James Burgun, Secretaryg Ethel Gelpke, Treasurer. Representatives in the Student Gov- ernment were Mary Sheehan, Anthony Ammendolia, Everett Harlfmger, and Ethel Gelpke. This year was a revelation of new abilities of our class- mates. Nearly every memizer of the class showed his pugilistic ability in the Boxing and Wrestling Show in April, his histrionic ability in the Minstrel Show in January, or his salesnianship ability in the Food Sale and the Maga- zine Drive. New acting talent was unearthed in the Junior Dramatic Club under the dii ection oi' Miss liavanaugh and Miss Lamoureaux, with Marcella Liliiiaii as Secretary, and Auldice 'i'v'ilson as Treasurer. We discovered bud- ding track stars in John Graham, Richard Sarra, James Burgun, Everett llarllinger, and Alfred Crowd: the tirst two were cup winners in the annual three-mile road race on April 19, 1939. This year Mr. lVlasterson and Mr. Gibson were added to the teaching staii, Miss Canan took over musical direction, and at the time of Miss Kava- naugh's departure in the middle oi' the year, Miss Lamoureux became a new nieiniier of the faculty. We also greeted Miss Robinson when we lost Miss liflclflnaney to Quincy High School. T Next was our Junior Prom, scheduled for lVlay 19. Great and am- bitious plans were made and completed, but due to unforeseen and un- I' wt-ii::'te circumstances, the great event was cancelled. V- Md -T H E- CgH O J mq33 Juniors. too, took part in the graduation exercises when Ruth Water- held, Caroline Sawyer, June Sawyer, Phyllis Lowry, Mary Galligan, Mary Sheehan, Rosa Dardano, Shirley Stone. Ruth Hiltz, and Ethel Gelpke were recipients of Pro Merito pins and Anthony Ammedolia, Dorothy Guerrin, and Richard Sarra of Debating Society pins. Our class president, Richard Sarra, was marshal for the graduating Seniors. September, 1939, and we reached the ultimate ambition of our high school career: to be Seniors. Now we have attained our last and final goal of this experience: the end of the year and graduation. This Senior year has been full of achievements and activitiesg it has been a busy year, and one of which we shall always have pleasant and fond memories. This year's officers were as follows! Thomas Whitty, President, Caro- line Sawyer, Vice Presidentg Mary Sheehan, Secretary: and James Burgun, Treasurer. Seniors on the Student Government were Natalie Haynes, John Graham, Everett Harlfinger, Frank Carpenter, and Ethel Gelpke. Thomas Whitty was chosen captain of the football team, and Alfred Crowd, manager. handled the affairs and records of the team. Eight of our popular classmates, Olive Griflin, Dorothy Guerrin, Mary Galligan, Ruth Graham, Mary Johnson, Mary Sheehan, Ruth Hiltz, and Esther Adams were able and vivacious leaders of the cheering section during the season. Many Seniors starred in the fall games of football and of girl's field hockey, the latter team having Ruth Waterfield as Captain and Jean Strickland as Manager. Baseball, with Sparky Keleher as Captain and Alfred Crowd as Manager, golf, track, and ice hockey were other sports of the year enjoying fairly successful seasons, many of our boys playing prominent parts on each team. The boys' ice hockey team was organized under Alfred Crowd as Captain, playing and winning several fast and exciting games. The Glee Club under the direction of Miss Canan, with Caroline Saw- yer. accompanist for two years, enjoyed a year's work in new music and new musical knowledge. The annual Minstrel Show, performed a second time by popular de- mand was a great success, with Eleanor Morrell, Yvonne Fitzpatrick, Doro- thy Guerrin, and Ruth McDougall as singing stars, and Richard MacLeod, Ralph Mascierelli, Anthony Pavadore, Everett Harlfmger, Robert Woodman, and Richard Sarra as the hilarious end men. The first performance was given after the A. A. Banquet in January under the direction of the Associ- ation officers, Mary Galligan, President, and Olive Griffin, Secretary. Our social debut, our Senior Dance, held on January 19, two food sales, the annual Boxing and Wrestling Show, and a benefit movie held in the Strand Theatre, were all financial successes, enlarging our treasury greatly for the class trip. The golf team was rolling over the opposition with birdies and pars by Albert Reynolds, Captain, James Farrell, John Graham, Lorin Kelly, Wil- liam Adams, and James Burgun. Dorothy Guerrin, another of our able classmates, was chosen a school representative of the Junior Red Cross, returning with many helpful sug- gestions for the formation of a society in our school. One of our most talented girls, Phyllis Lowry was elected Editor-in- Chief of the Echo with other Seniors on the staff: James Burgun, Business Manager, Alfred Crowd and Ruth Graham, Athletic reporters, Natalie Haynes and Frank Carpenter, Class reiportersg and Mary Sheehan, Club reporter. John Graham was, for the second consecutive year, awarded the High School cup in the three-mile road race held on April 19. Other track stars. also trophy winners of this race, were James Burgun and Richard Sarra. The Senior Dramatic Club had a very successful and enjoyable year, its efforts being rewarded when the entire Senior Play cast was chosen from its numbers. Leave lt To Mother' was presented on April 5, with 34g 4 THE ECHO such capable actors and actresses as Dorothy Cuerrin, Ruth McDougall, William Milligan, Elizabeth Shann-on, James Burgun, Marionne Flower, Robert Woodman, Anne Rumrey, Anthony Ammedolia, Frank Carpenter, Rose Murphy, and Ethel Gelpke taking part. On May 19 fifty-six members of the class sailed from Providence on our class trip to New York. We spent two memorable days in New York City including one at the fair. The whole trip will remain in our memory as one of the most significant events in our school career. Here we wish to record the name of one of our classmates, Laura Corey, who left us in our Junior year, on May 19, She went away in beauty's flower, Before her life was spent, Ere life and love had lived its hour, God called her, and she went. Yet whispers Faith upon the Wind, No grief to her was given, She left our love and went to find A greater one in heaven. The entire class wishes at this time to extend to Mr. Anketell, Mrs. Dana, and all members of the faculty, our sincere thanks and appreciation for the helpful guidance and advice during these four happy years at Can- ton High School. May our education yield us rich dividends in health, happiness, and achievement, and may we always find that Knowledge and truth shall light our way. Natalie Haynes Ethel Gelpke Qrench Glub A newly-formed French Club made its appearance on the horizon of school activities this year under the supervision of Miss Lamoureux. Informal meetings were held in which only French was spoken. Dur- ing these meetings we read plays, held discussions, and played French games. The Club this year has only about 20 members. They are: Albert Dardano, Donald Cobb, Rita Johnson, Louise Davenport, Jean McEnancy, Myrtle Cross, Warren Smith, Joe Ronayne, Ralph Briggs, Amy Mann, Mary Sheehan, Mary Johnson, Eleanor Duggan, Virginia Hawley, Priscilla Brown, Virginia French, Frances Morrell and Wanda Pavides. No officers were elected because of the Club's informality. L. Davenport, '41.

Back in September the following otlicers were elected: Doris Josephson, president, Virginia French, vice-president: William Hibbard, treasurer, and your truly, secretary. Eleanor Duggan and Rich- ard Shaughnessy were chosen class advisors. The first few weeks, members gave skits, plays, poems, and mono- logues. Then plans were made for a Christmas Play to be presented at the annual Christmas party. Many fine plays were written but Donald Cobb's and Marie Hill's seemed to be the favorites. Marie's play was chosen to be presented at the Christmas Party. After Christmas with the money in our treasury we bought a play, A Ready Made Family . Because of lack ol' time we did not put this play on as We had hoped. Congratulations are extended to Miss Sargent and Miss Lamoureaux, our teachers, for their help and patience in preparing us for next year's work in Senior Dramatics, Frances Morrell, '41, T H E I-1 Qv A, !4 ,' p -59 lwilil Qld . -will ' UV Q ' Stain 1 4 ui Z 2 ' :mai it ini U .

Qlee Club The Glee Club, composed of about seventy members, met every Thurs- day inorning during the year. The first part ofthe year was devoted to the singing of folk songs in unison. Later they were sung' in two-part and three-part harmony. Everyone has worked hard at these meetings to im- prove their voice for the beautiful art songs and patriotic pieces to which the second half of the year was devoted. The Glee Club wishes to express their gratitude to Miss Marietta Canan, for her excellent supervision of this group, and for her faith in them. M. Colsen.

Qootball The 1939 football season opened with forty-eight reporting for duty to Coach Donovan. The first game was played against North Attleboro which was a tie game. Canton lost eight regulars and this lack of eX- perience and material put the '39 squad in a bad place. ln the final game of the season we lost to our Thanksgiving' Day rivals, Stoughton High School.

Graham, L. Kelley, A. Kenefic, J. Gibney. We had our first match scheduled for April 22, against Norwood, but due to a late snowstorm, We could not play. We opened the season on April 29 against Weymouth, on the Blue Hill course, and Won 9-0. Our next match, May 2, was with Walpole High. Canton lost, 6Vg-21f3. As the Echo goes to press, the golf season is well under way, but our chances of winning the trophy for the Norfolk County League are smaller. Needham seems to be the outstanding team in the league. The 1940 schedule follows: Score Score Date Team Can. Opp. Date Team Can.

The team was not very successful in its first three games, losing to Mansfield, Stoughton, and Randolph, but these games were close and Canton could just as easily have won them. From all appearances. the team should win its share of games before the season ends.
