Flash! Flash! WEATHER: Poor, of course DIGHTON HIGH SCHOOL 1947-48 DESERVED PUBLICITY Our principal, Mr. Dana O. Webber, rightly received news- paper recognition for his Sports- manship Code in Narry League basketball. Mr. Webber's desire for fair play is exemplified in all his undertakings. May we Seniors ever continue to practice this sportsmanship in- stilled in us at Dighton High School. SHOCK! A Whist Party was held in Myricks in the old school house. The Seniors first met society here. Alden Johnson trumped an ex- perienced card player's Ace! We dare not say what Melvin Angus and George Morth did, for you might think they didn't know how to play whist. Did they? GIRLS LOSE GLAMOUR Emptying cellars and attics was bad enough, but that could never ruffle the composure and appear- ance of the ambitious Senior co- eds. The weather, as usual, had to make the paper drive a more challenging affair. Rain stop these gals? Never! But you should have seen their curly locks. HEAVY CAKES That remark brought a laugh at the Rehoboth Supper Cake Sale. James White knew how to sell those cakes, however, in spite of the slip of the tongue! DISHWASI-IERS NEEDED? Apply to Dighton High Class of 1948. We'1l send a few boys im- mediately. Experience gained at school and at all affairs. If preferred, write personally to Melvin Angus! IN APPRECIATION Many thanks to parents and friends who so unselfishly helped to make our class trip a reality. AUC'I'ION Supt. John J. Rolfe, our splen- did auctioneer, did a remarkable job at the North Dighton Supper in selling Josephine Furtado the five cent valuables. Whatever did she do with them all? Didn't we see them at the next whist? That was a great night for Pete Cummings too. Nice little duck you took home, hey Pete ? BREAKFAST AT EIGHT Miss Ruth Rounsevell enter- tained at a breakfast given on the D. H. S. stage one evening in De- cember in honor of James White. Guests were Libby Simmons, Jeanne Hebert, Kathleen Higgins, Shirley O'Connel1, Joseph Cam- bra, James Gurney, and Robert Rose. They ate her out of house and home. THOSE Plenty of given James sports. They deserving of DUTRA BOYS publicity has been and John Dutra in certainly have been the praise. Perhaps not as well known is the fact that the Dutra brothers have both been class officers for their four years of high school. That's a fine record, boys! SINGER WINS FAME Miss Jeanne Hebert, well- known contralto, whose voice has been widely acclaimed in private circles, made her stage debut this school year. Attired in fine furs and feathers, she made a hurried departure after her performance to fill a movie contract. C0-OPERATION PLUS Libby Simmons and Barbara Andrade have gone overboard in providing help for our many ac- tivities. Not only have they been busy little beavers along with other members of the class, but they have solicited outside assist- ance. Herb and Charlie have been real pals! MONEY, MONEY, MONEY! The main cry- of the Seniors, why? Money was scarce! Prices were high! Washington trip ex- penses increased! So could you blame them? Of course not! But thank goodness there was Miss Laliberte to stir up enthusiasm and that the class was made up of vim and vigor and determination to reach that goal! Results-empty pockets, com- plete exhaustion, but plenty of fun! RARE SIGHT Unable to resist the temptation, Frances Souza jumped into the shower room puddles. So eager was her desire to take a dip that she overlooked the fact that she was fully dressed. If it was the wet feeling she wanted, she must have been satis- fied. D. A. R. PILGRIIVI On the basis of dependability, service, leadership and patriotism Ruth Rounsevell was elected D. H. S. good citizen to represent the school at the D. A. R. Pilgrimage in Boston. Quite an honor for Ruth! SUPER SALESMEN The raising of funds for the Washington Trip was really a course in salesmanship. If treated as such, certificates would surely have been given to Alden John- son, Harold Baptiste, Marilyn Rit- ter, Ruth Rounsevell, Betty Gur- ney, Barbara Andrade, Jeanne Hebert, Mary Sousa, James Gur- ney, Catherine Sellars, and Doris Pittsley-our super salesmen. If you have something you no longer want, just call on any of the above to dispose of it for you. However, wish you luck in col- lecting the returns. They are well trained to turn all money into the class treasury. MARDI GRAS KING AND QUEEN Congratulations, Shirley and John! Twenty-three
