E l0R CLASS PLAY That Brewster Boy, a three act comedy, was presented by the Senior Class on Thursday night, October 30. About a young boy, Joey Brewster, who thought his friend, Pee Wee, needed more experience with the female sex, the play was a tremendous success. Along with the weeks of hard work in preparation we had a good many laughs. We remember Johnny Poo Poo's hat, dice games, the radio backstage, five minute breaks, Steve's plaid shorts, food in the closet, the portable Crosley, Ernie's for pizza, ticket sell- ing, the gift for Miss Stover, and the party at Wee Pee Barker's to celebrate our performance. We had the cooperation of Mr. Bassett and his boys for the set, Mrs. Harrison and the Dramatic Club for the makeup, and individuals from the class for committee work. Is it any wonder that the press gave us enthusiastic notices? an fi f A 1 it X ...A

OUR CLASSES A S EASTER D.H.S., April 6, 1952 - For days the Town Hall has been bustling with activity. Weeks before this, the juniors' homeroom resembled a kindergarten, the floors strewn with colored scraps of paper and the desks covered with cut-out bun- nies, flowers and birds. Class meet- ings, trips to Boston and hours of planning have all been in prepara- tion for the junior Prom. The doors of the Town Hall were opened early Saturday morning, the day of the dance. There was much yet to be done. Decorations had to be finished and put on the walls, ' s Q PARADE the floor had to be cleared and swept and orange sherbert punch had to be made. Finally there it was, finished! The walls were covered with spring scenes, the orchestra was surround- ed by a small picket fence, the ceiling was lowered with crepe pa- per and right in the center of the floor was a tall, fluffy white Easter Bunny waiting for the music to begin. A party at Mac's to finish gallons of leftover punch and doz- ens of cupcakes climaxed a success- ful junior Prom. MONDAY 'MoRNtNGSf SENIORS HOLD FIRST MEETING D.H.S., Sept., 1952 - An ambi- tious group. of new Seniors gathered in their home room today for the first class meeting of the year.
